In the first month of the third year of the New Prehistoric Period, a huge heavenly gate appeared in the void, shining with golden light. From the Tianmen to the inside, there is the Tianshi Avenue shrouded in clouds and mist. The avenue is paved with white marble, and the railings are made of Kunlun Mountain jade, inlaid with golden flowers and dragon patterns. It looks less ethereal and fairy-like, but it is extremely magnificent and majestic.
The Heavenly Avenue stretches for nine hundred and ninety-nine feet, and ends abruptly in endless emptiness. Along the left and right sides of the heavenly steps, there are sixteen heavenly gates, leading to the other thirty-two heavens.
This is the power of the seventy-two weapon refiners in the Immortal World, with Chi Jiang Ziyu as the master craftsman, known as the Zong Tianmen built in January. After leaving the Tianmen of this world, all Hedao Immortals and Void Refining cultivators of the Thirty-three Days must first enter the General Tianmen, accept inspection and registration by the Tianmen generals, and then follow the Tianjie Avenue to enter the Tianmen of all heavens they want to go to. Every day is in this way.
The design of this Zongtianmen is quite mysterious. It looks like one, but is actually made up of thirty-three overlapping Tianmen. The monks in each life think that they are outside the Zongtianmen, and they all think that other lives are within the Zongtianmen. However, In the eyes of others, they are on both sides of the heavenly steps within Zongtianmen.
Such a grand Tianmen was built in just one month? Wu Sheng didn't quite believe it. If it took a month to build it, it was possible. But he didn't believe that the various building materials he had prepared before could be prepared in a month.
What's more, you also need to have a profound understanding of the river map. Just studying the structure of the river map takes more than a month.
Wu Sheng looked up at the Tianmen and murmured the three simple cloud-patterned characters on the sapphire blue horizontal plaque. He did not recognize these three cloud-patterned characters, but at the first glance, the cloud-patterned candle illuminated his heart and immediately revealed its meaning. .
"Nantianmen?"
Xuanyuan smiled and explained: "Yes, Nantian Gate. If this is the south, then the end of the heavenly steps will be north. In the north, there will be a great hall to deal with all affairs of the heavens."
"The main hall?"
"That's right. Shennong, Bachelor, Queen Mother of the West, Xuannv... please take a look."
A fragment slowly appeared from the depths of the void. Nine flying dragons of different colors swam in front of it. There were iron ropes tied to each dragon's horns to pull the fragmented island over.
The ancestor of Yinglong suddenly roared loudly, and the dragons let go of the iron rope, allowing the fragmented island to swim slowly towards the end of the Tianjie Avenue, and slowly connected with each other.
With a slight tremble under the feet, a meandering river formed where the sky steps connected with the fragmented island. The white marble avenue was squeezed and arched, forming a nine-hole stone bridge.
Opposite the stone bridge is a majestic hall. At the four corners of the stone platform in front of the hall, copper furnaces with ritual instruments are installed, burning incense and birds, covering the hall in the light smoke and mist, looming.
Xuanyuan said with a smile: "Everyone, please come with me. From now on, all the immortals and gods can enter the Nantianmen, follow the heavenly steps to the north, pass through the nine curves of golden juice, and arrive in front of the palace. They can go up to the palace to perform their duties."
As he walked forward, he pointed at both sides of the heavenly steps: "These are the sixteen heavenly gates... On the east side is the general office of the Tianmen, and on the west side is the duty room..."
What is south and what is north? If you can't tell the direction in the void, how can you tell the difference between south and north? Obviously, this was decided by the Xuanyuan family.
Arriving in front of the palace, the gods looked up at the huge palace, and were all shocked by the beauty of the palace.
"This is a fragment I found in the void. It is quite interesting for traveling, so I built a special place on it. It was originally used for recreation. The heaven was newly established and I didn't have much money left, so I Donate it for the purpose of handling affairs, please don’t dislike it.”
Behind the main hall, there are large areas of grassland, mountain forests, waterfalls, flowing clouds and mist, a unique scenery.
"Under that mountain, we plan to build another palace, which can be regarded as the residence of Thunder Chief. On the top of the mountain, we can build a sky storehouse. If there are other offices in the future, we can continue to add them. In short, this fragment is very large, with a radius of no less than a thousand miles. , enough." Xuanyuan pointed to the distance again.
All the righteous gods climbed up the steps and stopped under the eaves. Xuanyuan said: "The name of the palace is still missing. Please name it."
Patriarch Kunpeng said: "The Emperor has a strategy in his mind, so don't make it difficult for me and others. What the Emperor proposes must be good."
Queen Mother Xi smiled and said: "Okay, if the emperor has a good name, just put it on it."
Xuanyuan looked at Wu Sheng again, and Wu Sheng nodded slightly: "Emperor, please name me." There is no need to fight over such insignificant matters.
Xuanyuan clan smiled and pondered, and then said: "The spirit is stronger than all the heavens and stands in the sky, so let's call it Lingxiao Palace."
Everyone nodded in approval, so Xuanyuan personally waved the plaque on it.
After entering the palace, I felt that it was extremely deep and wide, far beyond what was seen outside. This was a spatial method refined by the palace, and everyone was used to it. The main hall has two rows of dragon pillars as the middle passage, leading to the throne on the opposite side. The throne stands on the third floor and nine steps. It is gorgeous and majestic and awe-inspiring.
There was no one in the hall at the moment and it was empty, but Wu Sheng could imagine what the solemn killing would look like on the throne and in the hall one day.
Queen Mother Xi looked at the throne with a smile and asked, "Is this seat for the God of the Moon?"
Xuanyuan replied: "The Lingxiao Hall is where all the righteous gods discuss matters. On the throne is the righteous god of the moon. Everything he encounters can be decided with one word."
When all the righteous gods nodded, Chang Xian suddenly came forward, bowed and said: "The Nantian Gate has been opened, and the Lingxiao Hall has been established. I sincerely invite all the righteous gods to choose Youshi."
Queen Mother Xi was very interested: "Tell me, how to choose?"
Chang Xian said: "There are twenty-four generals of the Nantian Gate. Please recommend two from each of the righteous gods. There are 12 righteous gods from the Tianku. Please recommend one from each of the righteous gods. There are seventy-two generals from the Thunder Chief. Please recommend them to each of you." God recommended six names each.”
Wu Sheng asked: "How to take turns?"
Chang Xian said: "The Nantian Gate God General and Tianku Chief God are divided into three shifts, and the Thunder Chief is divided into twelve teams."
Wu Sheng said: "In other words, those who are selected into the Third Division will always be in heaven?"
Chang Xian said: "A batch can be replaced every year, and it is up to the righteous gods to decide. And those who serve as immortal gods can receive a generous salary of 30,000 colorful stones from heaven every year."
The salary is indeed generous. An ordinary Hedao can earn tens of thousands of colorful stones a year, which is considered good. Being on duty in Heaven, although he cannot be free, the income is three times that of an ordinary Hedao immortal, which is still quite attractive.
Chang Xian continued: "The Heavenly Court is also planning to recruit one hundred and twenty Void Refining monks from the heavens as deacons. They will also be recommended by the righteous gods and receive a salary of 3,000 colorful stones per year."
The so-called deacon, to put it bluntly, is to serve. All kinds of chores must be carried out carefully. Running around, shouting and drinking is a common thing. The cultivators of Lianxu are also high-level cultivators among the heavens. Going to heaven to do such chores can be said to be quite unbearable. But other than that, it is more difficult for Lianxu to earn colorful stones.
Practitioners of Lianxu in the Spring and Autumn World Academy are treated the best. With the support of the academy, they can receive thousands of colorful stones a year. In other lives, that would be impossible. Three thousand colorful stones are equivalent to five of them. The annual income is uncertain.
"A year's salary requires more than three million. How should we consider this money?" Wu Sheng asked more carefully.
Chang nodded first and said: "The Spring and Autumn Scholar asked about the joint. Now in Shennong, there are colorful stones confiscated by Yongcheng Shi and Shen Yishi Lingyan who stole Eucalyptus, and there are multicolored stones transformed by Jiaoshan Laoer's enchantment. The total number is three thousand and five. With more than one million, there will be no problem in paying the salary for ten years."
Wu Sheng pointed to the outside of the palace and said: "Besides the Lingxiao Palace, if we want to build a large-scale construction and refine the palace, we can't let the emperor come out, right? Emperor Xuanyuan, do you think so?"
Xuanyuan didn't take the bait. He didn't say yes or no. He just smiled and didn't answer. Chang said first, "That's true."
Wu Sheng felt a little regretful: "Look, it won't last a few years."
Chang Xian said: "So today, I would like to make a bold suggestion. Starting from this year, every day of the thirty-three days, each day must send one hundred thousand colorful stones to the heaven to maintain the operation of the heaven."
Emperor Fengdu asked: "Can you please ask Empress Wa to refine the five-color stone to mend it? It doesn't need to be refined, just one spiritual eye jade can be refined every year."
Chang Xian said: "One per year? Does the Emperor know that how long it took Empress Wa to refine jade to replenish Yong City? Most of half a year! Why did Empress Wa stay in seclusion? Isn't it because she couldn't afford it anymore? What?"
All the righteous gods were silent for a long time, each saying nothing. All the heavens have their own ways to earn colorful stones, such as the Tianlu Terrace in the Yi Zhou world, the fertile fields in the Kong Sheng world, the undersea palaces in the mountains and seas world, the heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the supernatural world, and even the power of faith in the immortal world. To name a few. Even if you say 100,000 yuan, you can afford it. If you get 30,000 to 500,000 yuan at a time, everyone will answer happily. But once it is customized and paid every year, it will be different. It will be the simplest. Forget it, if you pay continuously for a hundred years, this is ten million!
Seeing the slight silence, Xuanyuan laughed and said, "Let's go to the back and ask you all to take a look at the scenery of the back garden of the heaven."
After bypassing the Lingxiao Hall, there were beautiful mountains and rivers behind it. Wu Sheng vaguely felt that it was very similar to the Kongtong Mountain left to him by the Great Immortal Guangcheng, but it was much different spiritually. However, many places will build pavilions and pavilions in the future, so whether they have that ethereal beauty is no longer important.
Everyone flew all the way from the sky, admiring the scenery of the void fragments. At the same time, they were also listening to Xuanyuan's description of the grand blueprint for the construction of the heaven. Unknowingly, they flew to a forest with the strongest spiritual power, and fell to the side. In the stone pavilion.
Chang waved his hand first, and then there were the immortal monks who had been waiting here for a long time, serving wine and immortal delicacies in the flowing water. All the righteous gods sat around the pavilion, each raising a lamp to invite them.
Queen Mother of the West, Luo Shen, and Jiutian Xuannv gathered together to chat and laugh, and were soon attracted by Xuanyuan's talk. Together with Shennong, Kunpeng Patriarch, and Emperor Fengdu, they listened to Xuanyuan's description: "A spiritual fruit orchard will be built here to plant various kinds of fruits. The best spiritual fruit in the world. I heard that there are ginseng fruit, flat peach, cowberry fruit, red fruit and other fairy tree spiritual fruits. I am considering it... and also searching for it..."
Wu Sheng, Wuchangjun, Pixiu and Fenghuang gradually moved away from the stone pavilion and wandered in the forest, admiring the flowers and leaves and enjoying the fragrance.
Pixiu felt a great pain in his body: "One hundred thousand a year, my Tianlutai has to have a turnover of five million. This is only five million, how many gambling games will it take?"
Wu Sheng was surprised: "Mountain Master, I remember that you are not a person who feels pain for a hundred thousand colorful stones, right? There are several layers of paving in your house..."
Pixiu said angrily: "Can that be the same?"
Mr. Wuchang said: "One hundred thousand per year, one million every ten years, tens of millions over a hundred years, hundreds of millions over a thousand years. Children and grandchildren are infinitely valuable."
The most holy phoenix in Wu Sheng's mind actually also talked about the colorful stones with Feng: "It is indeed different, every year!" He emphasized the word "every year" in a serious tone, and then continued to expand: "It's just a day now. Baihe Dao, one hundred refining the void, what if after a few years, two Baihe Dao, two hundred refining the void? What about three hundred?"
Pai Yao asked: "You have all been to the world of immortals and seen Xuanyuan's style, right? How many divisions do you think the heaven will expand to? How many Hedao? How many Lianxu?"
Mr. Wu Chang also frowned: "Looking at the land he brought over, it is so big, it shows that the ambition is not small."
The three of them looked at Wu Sheng together: "What do you think?"
Wu Sheng was stunned and quickly agreed: "If you don't have long-term worries, you must have immediate worries. What the three of you said is absolutely true!"
Phoenix looked at Pi Xiu, who looked at Wu Changjun, who looked at Wu Sheng, and was silent.
Wu Sheng said: "We are a family. If you have something to say, please say it. What are you worried about?"
Mr. Wuchang turned his head and looked at the busy stone pavilion in the distance, and smiled slightly: "We need a way to obtain stable colorful stones for a long time. Although we and other heavens are all demons and gods, the power of faith is the same. of……"
In the stone pavilion, Xuanyuan's narration had already been completed. When Wu Sheng and the others returned, Chang first spoke: "Everyone, what the little god just said is that the heavens accept the colorful stones from the heaven. What do you think about it? If you can If it is settled as soon as possible, the heaven will be established as soon as possible.”
In fact, Chang Xian was not qualified to intervene in Zhengshen's discussion. Everyone knew that what he wanted to say was what Xuanyuan wanted to say. Wu Sheng asked Xuanyuan directly: "The request of one hundred thousand colorful stones to Heaven may not seem like much at first, but this is a long-term need. Over time, it is a heavy burden. There must be a way to stably transform the colorful stones. I heard that this is a long-term need. In your world, there is a method of converting the power of faith. No matter who the power of faith is enshrined to, it can be collected and stored and transformed into colorful stones. If this secret method can be shared, let alone one hundred thousand, every year in my spring and autumn life It’s no big deal to accept two hundred thousand colorful stones, just do what you say!”
As soon as the request was made, Chang Xian stopped talking. Wu Sheng's proposal was a sudden change and caught the world of immortals by surprise.
Moreover, this proposal was obviously a joint proposal of several righteous gods and could not be dismissed easily. Even Queen Mother of the West and Xuannv of the Nine Heavens immediately became serious.
Jiutian Xuannu solemnly said: "If this method can be shared, I, Zifu and Fusang, are willing to receive two hundred thousand stones every year."
Queen Mother Xi nodded in agreement.
Chang Xian suddenly felt troubled and looked at Xuanyuan. Xuanyuan pondered for a long time and said slowly: "The Faith Pool Array is a method that has been established step by step by hundreds of years of hard work in the immortal world... It is not my own strength. ...The trouble is serious and requires long-term planning..."
Wu Sheng immediately said: "We can understand what the emperor said. Why don't we stop here today and wait for the emperor to make a decision before discussing the follow-up matters?"
Xuanyuan smiled and said, "That's fine."
After the others left, looking at the empty Nantian Gate, Tianjie and Lingxiao Hall, Xuanyuan's face turned livid, and Chang Xian threw the wine cup angrily: "I just want to pick peaches with just one sentence, it's really hateful!"
