I can't live forever, so I have to reincarnate infinitely

Chapter 451 Nascent Soul Ceremony

The Fairy City Alliance has thousands of cities.

According to the size of the city and the highest level of force, it is divided into four levels: A, B, C and D.

A first-class fairy city naturally has Nascent Soul cultivators in charge and a population of tens of millions, these two rigid indicators.

There are only twenty first-class fairy cities in total.

The second-class fairy city, which is the current level of Ruihan City, has Nascent Soul monks, but its population reaches one million, but it is less than ten million.

There are almost half a hundred second-class fairy cities in the alliance.

A C-class fairy city has a population of more than 500,000, and has a real person named Danjie who is in charge.

Immortal cities such as Ding also have Master Jie Dan sitting in charge - without Master Jie Dan, it is not enough to establish a city - but the population is less than 500,000.

In the entire Immortal City Alliance, there are less than two hundred Nascent Soul cultivators and thousands of Jindan practitioners registered, with a total population of 800 million.

The Seven Cities Alliance alone has a population of over 100 million.

Among those invited to Du Youqian's Nascent Soul Ceremony were more than fifty Nascent Soul monks and more than a thousand golden elixirs.

The total number of people invited is not large, but when a real person travels, he usually brings some foundation-building followers with him. You can't do all the chores yourself, right?

So as the ceremony approaches, Ruihan City becomes lively, and the transaction volume is much larger than usual.

The craftsmen Du Youqian brought back finally had a chance to show off their talents. They took advantage of this period to eat well and make their reputations known.

Some monks are willing to cooperate long-term with alchemists, weapon refiners, talisman makers, formation masters, etc.

After meeting a craftsman that you like and admire, you will even travel thousands of miles to come if you need it in the future.

In such an atmosphere, Du Youqian quietly returned to Ruihan City.

First, they distributed a pill-forming spiritual item to each person in the management of Immortal City as promised a few years ago.

Then he began to fast, bathe, and wait for the ceremony.

When the deep and distant chimes sounded, a solemn feeling suddenly enveloped the entire hall.

This hall, located between the Sui family's old house and the ancestral house, was specially built for the Nascent Soul Ceremony of ancestor Sui Xiao.

For this reason, many houses were demolished at that time, but every clan member was willing to contribute to the ancestor's ceremony, so they only received some symbolic demolition fees.

The entire hall is made of second-grade materials. This way of showing magnanimity is seen by some tribesmen as a waste of time and money.

But Patriarch Suizhi refuted all the opinions with one sentence at that time.

"If Ancestor Xiao loses face in front of his colleagues, and people will look down on Ruihan City in the future, who can bear this responsibility? On the contrary, if Ancestor Xiao earns enough face in front of his colleagues, he will represent Ruihan City when competing for resources in the future. , it can also make people pay more attention to it. What does it mean to spend a little money?"

Du Youqian nodded slightly and did not express an opinion, but everyone knew his opinion.

Du Youqian himself does not like extravagance.

But the Nascent Soul Ceremony is a window for Ruihan City to show its strength in front of the entire Immortal City Alliance.

If you are generous, it will be really difficult to fight for something in the future.

Why do emperors always build palaces magnificently?

Why do business people, even if they borrow money or rent a car, still want to buy a Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Bentley, Rolls-Royce?

Why do poor people have to borrow nice formal clothes when they go to do errands?

Why do we still hold various sports games and World Expos even if we lose money, and spend a lot of manpower and material resources to build venues and supporting facilities?

The reason for this is because of the "human heart" - the human heart is easily manipulated and influenced.

And building a splendid and majestic palace is for the sake of people's hearts.

Getting a luxury car as a facade is also for the sake of people's hearts.

Borrowing a good piece of clothing to run an errand is also for the sake of people's hearts.

The same is true for holding sports games, World Expos, etc.

Even the various solemn ceremonies and performances performed in the main hall this time are also for the sake of people's hearts - not only to unite the hearts of the family, but also to show to outsiders, let outsiders recognize them, and win the hearts of outsiders.

Du Youqian hopes that all the guests will have this idea: Ruihan City is a city with potential, profound and prosperous, and in the near future, it should have the opportunity to attack the first-class fairy city.

If all the guests think so, then when Du Youqian wants to represent Ruihan City to compete for the resources of the first-class fairy city in the future, it will be logical and get people's approval.

Based on Du Youqian's own tendency, he certainly doesn't like such boring ceremonies.

He would rather invite a few friends and drink all night long. It is enough to have distinguished guests here, good food and wine, and beauties singing and dancing.

But after all, Du Youqian is a person whose reason overrides his sensibility. At the same time, as a new Yuanying, he is not qualified to challenge the existing order and tradition, and he cannot do whatever he wants.

So he honestly followed the etiquette arrangements and followed the procedures from beginning to end. Until the end of the ceremony and after accepting the congratulations from the guests, Du Youqian accepted the congratulations from his friends in private and drank and had fun.

After that, he preached to all the monks in the city for seven consecutive days.

The tradition of Master Yuanying preaching after the ceremony has existed since ancient times.

It is also an important link for new Yuanyings to show their strength and heritage in front of their peers.

And because the sermon is purely theoretical, it is about my own understanding of spiritual practice, so I will not reveal my level of fighting skills or leak secrets.

So this is a beneficial and harmless thing.

For the practitioners in Ruihan City, this is naturally a grand event and a blessing.

Although Du Youqian's words are relatively profound, except for a few geniuses, it is impossible for them to have an epiphany or even break through a bottleneck just after listening to it.

But for monks who have listened to his sermons, the probability of breaking through the bottleneck will increase in the next few years and decades.

The appearance of a Nascent Soul cultivator can bring many benefits to the fairy city where it is located.

This is just a small part of it.

The ceremony has come to an end.

But the story of Ruihan City is not over.

It won't stop abruptly after the climax.

More and more people are applying to settle in Fairy City. Several ancestors of Fairy City have also promulgated decrees, asking Fairy City managers to set policies to encourage births, attract outstanding talents, come up with plans to expand the city, and strive to make it a city within two hundred years. The population of Fairy City has increased to ten million - this ten million does not only refer to those living in Fairy City, but also includes those in the satellite towns and vast countryside surrounding Fairy City.

Although the protective array of Fairy City cannot fully protect all the people living around the city.

But if there is a special situation such as a war, the fairy city can temporarily gather all the people around it into the city for protection.

When the population exceeds 10 million, Du Youqian can compete for the resources that only Class A fairy cities are eligible to participate in the allocation.

As for whether he can get it after fighting for it, it depends on Du Youqian's methods and whether anyone in the family can break through to Nascent Soul to help him.

In other words, according to past practice, it will take almost two hundred years for Ruihan City to become a first-class fairy city.

Then it will take a while to operate, and there will be a chance to truly enjoy the treatment of a first-class fairy city.

But how could Du Youqian wait so long.

He has been eyeing Dali City for a long time, isn't it just for Dali City's status as a first-class fairy city!

Although the Nascent Soul monks in Dali City have died, the name of the first-class fairy city has not been taken away.

According to convention, as long as another Nascent Soul is born in Dali City within two hundred years, it can continue to maintain its reputation as a first-class fairy city.

The last Nascent Soul of Dali City, Du Youqian's mother's great-great-grandfather, passed away a hundred years ago.

There is not much time left for Dali City, and over the years, no one from the Duan family, the lord of Dali City, has shown hope of breaking through to Nascent Soul.

The main vein's poor performance gave the branch veins opportunities and excuses.

The branches began to fight for power. They believed that if the resources of the main line were allocated to themselves, they might not be able to have a baby, save the Duan family, and save Dali City!

But the branch's strength is limited after all.

They need to win over other small families to increase their strength and voice.

This gives those small families the opportunity to wait for the price.

It also gave opportunities to some careerists who coveted Dali City.

Over the years, the Duan family has been fighting among themselves, and the struggle has gradually spread to the entire city.

Main veins and branch veins fight.

The branches are entangled in the struggle between the small family and the main line.

The branches are constantly competing with each other.

The main line also seeks alliances with small families to counterattack...

The person who is considered to have the best chance of capturing Dali City is Master Chang Fu!

Master Chang Fu married a concubine, the Yin family from Dali City.

The Yin family has always served the Duan family and has a good relationship with one of the branches of the Duan family.

Master Chang Fu was preparing to intervene in the battle for Dali City through his relationship with the Yin family.
