Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

The mountain and river calendar lasted for 39,980 years.

Early summer.

The various demon tribes in the Northern Continent have long been full of confidence and have prepared all kinds of magical herbs and elixirs for their warriors, equipped them with the best magical weapons and instruments, and sent them to the center of the Northern Continent.

The demon clan is just a general concept. There are too many clans within it. Apart from those fairy birds and exotic beasts, all birds and beasts that have achieved enlightenment can be called demons and are included in the demon clan.

Each of the spirits and monsters is different.

The solid body is called spirit, the virtual body is called spirit, sentient beings are called demons, and inanimate things are called monsters.

There are also plants and trees that have attained the Tao and become spirits, and animals that have attained the Tao and become demons.
Take the monsters in the Northern Continent for example. There are not only birds and beasts, but also fish and turtles, mountain spirits, and plant spirits.
It can be said that the demon race in the Northern Continent includes almost all living creatures except humans. It is no wonder that the Demon King Palace was ambitious to build a heaven for the demon race.

Although the Demon King Palace has lost its former grandeur, it is still the undisputed god of the Northern Territory and the existence that billions of creatures and various ethnic groups in the Northern Territory rely on.

This Golden Orchid Festival is of great significance to the Demon King Palace. It is not just about selecting a group of candidates for the Demon King Palace's Crown Prince's Palace, but also about checking the combat power of each race and rehearsing for the subsequent attack on Pan Fengjie.

Therefore, the Demon King Palace provided a large number of resources, and what was given out in this Golden Orchid Festival was more than the previous two Golden Orchid Festivals combined.

The purpose is to allow each race to demonstrate its true strength and bring out the elite strongmen of each race.

In fact, the purpose of the Demon King Palace was achieved. Geniuses from the Northern Continent came in an endless stream from all directions and gathered in the center of the Northern Continent, in the huge demon country under the Demon King Palace.

In the country surrounded by tall walls, there are numerous geniuses from the demon race who have transformed themselves into human forms.

Yellow lion, black tiger, white elephant, golden leopard, grey wolf, hyena, black snake, red fox.
To the naked eye, they are human bodies in various shapes and sizes, but the demonic aura is glaringly evident and not concealed at all.

Being in the demon country, they naturally do not need to conceal their demonic aura. Not only that, they will not even restrain their own wildness and the unique habits of each race.

For example, the snake's tongue, the fangs and pupils of lions and tigers will all be displayed as their own characteristics.

As for the fox clan, although the change is more thorough, they will still deliberately expose their fox ears, fox tails, etc.

However, this is only because they want to show their ethnic characteristics in the demon country, it does not mean that they cannot conceal themselves.

If these demon elites come to the human territory, they will deliberately hide their habits and cover up their demonic aura, and can basically blend in with the crowd.

Unless there are monitoring arrays set up in the capitals and important cities of major dynasties like the Tang and Zhou dynasties, or if high-level monks are encountered, it would be difficult to be exposed.

It can be said that all those who are sent by various ethnic groups to participate in the Jinlan Festival are true elites.

After these elites and geniuses of the demon race enter the demon country, the first thing they usually do is to find a sense of belonging.

The demon country is very large, large enough to accommodate billions of lives.

But the demon country is also very small, so small that it only has thirteen areas.

This demon country located in the northern continent is divided into thirteen regions, which are governed by thirteen royal cities.

And these Thirteen Royal Cities symbolize the thirteen princes in the Prince's Palace of the Demon King's Palace.

Just like the Second Royal City, which is where the Jinpeng clan is located. Now the owner of this royal city is the crown prince of the Second Palace of the Demon King's Palace, Jin Qiong.

The second royal city was therefore named Golden Feather City.

The Golden Roc tribe has always been the leader among all the falcon tribes, so eagles and vultures often choose to come to Golden Feather City and settle down in the city.

The snakes would often go to the third royal city or the fifth royal city to serve under Xiangliu or Bashe.

The demon race is not as barbaric and bloody as people imagine. On the contrary, the demon race values ​​order the most.

The demon clan not only respects strength, but also has an order of seniority.

Moreover, the architecture of the demon clan is quite beautiful. Not only does it have a wild and rough style, but it also has a sense of exquisiteness and grace. It can be said that all kinds of buildings of the demon clan are very distinctive.

That's what Jinyu City is like.

Most of the inhabitants of Jinyu City are winged creatures, so there are many tall buildings built with various types of wood. The buildings are hundreds or thousands of feet high, ethereal and light, as if walking in the clouds.

There are all kinds of shops and markets in the city, including auction houses, fighting arenas, etc. The decorations are mostly feather-like and extremely exquisite.

The royal palace of Jinyu City is decorated with golden feathers of the scorching sun. The main hall is magnificent and tall, as if it is in the clouds overlooking the world. The decoration is magnificent and majestic.

The palace had everything from rockery to lakes, flowers, and forests. There was even a large Taoist temple with many feathered girls cleaning and taking care of it.

All living beings in Jinyu City knew that this Taoist temple was built by Jinyu City's master, the Second Prince of the Demon King Palace, Jin Qiong, for the Taoist priest who came from the Central Region Continent.

The Taoist priest is currently practicing in this Taoist temple.

On this day, a ray of golden light fell from the Demon King's Palace that was hanging high above the Demon Kingdom, and the golden light sank into the main hall of the Golden Feather City Palace.

Immediately, the maids who were cleaning the hall knelt down one after another, because the master of this royal city had returned.

"Is Taoist Master Xuanxin still meditating in the temple?"

"Your Highness, Taoist Xuanxin has never left the Taoist temple."

Hearing the maid's answer, Jin Qiong nodded, then left the palace and came to a Taoist temple on the side.

The Taoist temple is made of black bricks and green tiles, and is quite simple. There are green bamboos and pine trees planted around it, and there is a lotus pond with weeping willows, peach branches and plum trees inside, which is elegant and indifferent.

As soon as you enter the Taoist temple, you can see the curling green smoke coming out of the copper furnace.

Ignoring the demon monks on both sides who were bowing to him, Jin Qiong walked all the way to the backyard of the Taoist temple.

The wind blew the peach and plum trees, and the branches swayed, and the petals fluttered down, which was very beautiful. These peach and plum trees were all spiritual roots, and each one was priceless. This Taoist temple was even more spiritual, and it could be regarded as a sixth-grade spiritual vein, which was enough for the realm of transformation.

The Taoist temple looks ordinary, but inside it are many natural treasures and various spiritual roots, which were specially prepared by Jin Qiong for Xuanxin.

At this time, Jin Qiong came to the woods. Among the peach and plum trees, a young man in a green robe and a bamboo crown was standing with his hands behind his back.

As Jin Qiong arrived, the young man said, "My eldest brother likes peaches and plums the most. When I was in Dao Zong in the past, he often played the zither under the peach forest, and I would often play the flute to accompany him."

"Big Brother is extremely talented. He was chosen to be the next generation leader of Dao Sect very early on. Therefore, he planted a large forest of spiritual peaches in Dao Sect. He often used those precious spiritual peaches to make wine, and the best ones were always sent to the tables of us junior brothers and sisters."

"And what's on my desk is often the best."

The young man spoke slowly, his voice clear and calm, without any emotion in it.

Xuanxin, the Taiyi seedling of Qinghua Taoist Sect and the contemporary true disciple who was being trained by Qinghua Taoist Sect, has now defected to the Demon King Palace.

At the moment, it is still unknown how much the people in Qinghua Taoist Sect hate Xuanxin.

Xuan Xin turned around and looked at Jin Qiong who was standing there quietly, and smiled calmly: "Why do you have time to come and see me today?"

Jin Qiong wore a green gauze stand-up collar long gown with floral patterns and a waist-length pleated skirt. Her hair was tied up in a bun and decorated with a few small hair accessories.

This was the look Jin Qiong wore when she first met Xuan Xin. Jin Qiong also liked to wear this outfit when meeting Xuan Xin.

But Jin Qiong actually has a very strong personality, otherwise she would not have become the second prince, second only to Kong Zhen.

Jin Qiong often appears in public with golden hairpins and golden-scale feathered clothes, but to Xuan Xin, Jin Qiong still shows her favorite look.

"The Jinlan Festival is coming soon, and the Demon King Palace has invited three sects and two temples to watch the ceremony." Jin Qiong said quietly.

Xuan Xin frowned slightly: "So, the eldest brother is coming again."

Jin Qiong nodded: "Well, your senior brother will definitely come."

Xuan Xin sighed softly: "I have already made it clear that I came here voluntarily. Why is the eldest brother chasing me so closely? I will pay him back in the future if I owe him."

Jin Qiong asked, "This time, you still don't want to see your senior brother?"

"If you don't want to see it, the Demon King Palace can protect you from the pressure from the Qinghua Dao Sect."

Xuan Xin smiled and held Jin Qiong's hand: "We will meet sooner or later, and we can't let you bear all this forever. This time, just meet with Senior Brother, and everything will be fine after we have made things clear."

Jin Qiong nodded, her eyes full of joy: "Okay."

As the Jinlan Festival got closer, the guests from the three sects and two temples gradually arrived in Luzhou, Beiyu.

Above the northern continent, a ten thousand foot long Dharma boat was sailing in the clouds five thousand feet above.

There are mostly cloud palaces and jade halls on the Dharma Boat, with two pairs of cloud wings spread out on both sides, providing power for the Dharma Boat.

On the deck, one can see many Xuanmen disciples either meditating or playing chess.

At the front, middle and rear of the deck, there is a large flag hanging high, with three islands and seven peaks engraved on it, as well as rosy clouds and mist.

This is the logo of Penglai Taoist Sect.

The patterns of Penglai were clearly known throughout the entire world of mountains and rivers, so the Dharma ship encountered no hindrance when entering the Northern Territory Continent.

The monsters knew that this was a distinguished guest who came to watch the ceremony, a noble from the Penglai Taoist Sect.

On the Jade Palace at the center of the Dharma Boat, Jiang Sheng stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, quietly gazing at the mountains and rivers of the Northern Continent below.

The demon tribes in the Northern Continent each have their own cities and camps, some built on the mountains, some by the water, each with its own characteristics and located in an orderly manner.

Five thousand feet above the sky, looking down through layers of clouds, one can often see large tracts of plains and forests, continuous mountains and rivers, and huge lakes and swamps. The locations of those demon cities are also particularly obvious.

When the magic boat flies over the heads of these monsters, there will often be energy rising in the city, but after sensing the magic boat in the air, it will be immediately retracted.

After all, on this Dharma ship there are not only disciples from Penglai, but also guides from the demon clan.

A golden peacock demon king in the spirit transformation realm was standing beside Jiang Sheng with a smile: "Master Lingyuan, how is the scenery of my Northern Territory Continent?"

Jiang Sheng said: "The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the scenery is endless. This kind of natural scenery is really great."

The Golden Sparrow Demon King was quite proud when he heard this and said, "There are hundreds of thousands of tribes in my demon race, each with its own characteristics, but none of them can compare to the fertile land of the Demon Country."

"Master, you will soon be able to see where the demon country is."

Just as the Golden Sparrow Demon King said, not long after, as the magic boat moved to the Northern Territory Continent, a demon country with a huge area that almost covered the entire center of the Northern Territory Continent appeared in Jiang Sheng's eyes.

The huge demon kingdom is clearly divided into thirteen areas, all surrounding the huge towering ancient tree in the middle that reaches straight into the clouds.

In each area, the various buildings are strange and unique in beauty.

Waves of demonic energy rose up into the sky, lingering into colorful clouds that covered the Demon Kingdom. Demonic birds flew in the sky, beasts walked around, and all kinds of demons could be seen in the Demon Kingdom.

Jiang Sheng looked at the demon country below, his eyes narrowed slightly:

"A place where all the demons come to worship."

"Zhu Zi Demon Country." (End of this chapter)
