Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

South China Sea, Little Penglai.

Ever since Jiang Sheng took charge of Little Penglai, the Taoist temple of Penglai Taoist Sect on the South China Sea has become particularly safe.

Occasionally, some short-sighted people appear, but they can't cause any waves.

The ones in charge of the Qinghua Taoist Sect and the Tianhe Taoist Sect’s respective Taoist temples are Xuan Fang and Ming Zhen.

After these two met Jiang Sheng, they often came to Jiang Sheng to ask for favors.

After all, they are all familiar with each other. Although the Xuanmen Taoism in the Shanhe Realm is divided into three sects, they are still of the same blood, so it is normal for them to have close relations.

In comparison, the relationship between the Buddhist Mahakala Temple and the Great Tianlong Temple is closer.

The one sent by the Great Golden Zen Temple was Shenzu Guanghui, while the one sent by the Great Tianlong Temple was Juewu.

These two are old acquaintances of Jiang Sheng. Guanghui has also come to visit and occasionally come to chat with Jiang Sheng, but Juewu rarely shows up.

According to Guanghui, Juewu is practicing a profound Buddhist teaching and should not be moved lightly.

As for the Demon King Palace, the person sent this time was Yuan Xiao.

This great demon was also very majestic in the South China Sea before, but with the arrival of Jiang Sheng, Yuan Xiao became much more obedient. After visiting Jiang Sheng once, he saw that Jiang Sheng had an easy-going personality, so he often came over to make himself familiar with him.

As time went by, this little Penglai became a place where several geniuses often met.

After all, they are not fools. Among all the families currently in charge of the South China Sea, Jiang Sheng has the highest level of cultivation and the most powerful methods.

Moreover, Jiang Sheng has a very easy-going personality, so it is better to make himself familiar to me now so that I can shamelessly ask Jiang Sheng for help if I encounter any situation in the future.

After all, in this little Penglai, besides Jiang Sheng, there is also Duobao who is in the Taiyi Yuanshen realm.

As the construction of Tianmen became faster and faster, various components of tens of thousands of feet were forged one by one and sent to the Tianqiong Assembly, and more and more situations occurred above the South China Sea.

After all, the Panfeng Realm is watching right across the way, so there is no reason to allow the Shanhe Realm to build the Tianmen, so naturally they will use various means to stop it.

If the gods from the upper three realms cannot be sent, then use the middle three realms to harass continuously, thus delaying the construction of Tianmen.

Everyone knows this well.

Another day, a small meeting in Penglai.

This time, everyone came, not only Yuan Xiao, but also Juezhi, who had practiced Buddhism hard, came.

The six families gathered in Xiao Penglai, and Jiang Sheng hosted a banquet to entertain them. Everyone chatted about everything under the sun, and gradually the topic turned to the construction of Tianmen.

Yuan Xiao held a huge wine cup and said helplessly, "There have been more and more harassments recently."

"The remnants of the South China Sea, those thieves from the Panfeng Realm, are constantly coming to harass us. From the outer islands to the inner islands, they are all desperate."

"Old Yuan, I haven't had a good rest for a while. I thought I came to the South China Sea to enjoy myself, but I never thought I would be so busy."

Hearing this, Bai Qiu also said: "Who said it wasn't?"

"Let's not talk about the inner islands. All six islands need to be taken care of. Even with the help of those forces, the outer islands are still very difficult to worry about."

"Speaking of which, among all of us, the most leisurely one should be Brother Lingyuan."

This is true. With two Taiyi Yuanshens in charge of this small Penglai, both the inner six islands and the outer twelve islands are quite stable.

The Outer Twelve Islands are mainly under the control of the Tang Dynasty, Nanyue and other forces with True Lord level in charge, and they are all familiar with Jiang Sheng, so naturally they contribute more.

In comparison, it is much more difficult for others.

It’s not that all parties are not attentive. After all, whether it is the Tianhe Taoist Sect that is responsible for the Great Zhou Dynasty of the Outer Twelve Islands, or the Qinghua Taoist Sect that is responsible for the Three Views and Five Academyes of the Central Continent, they have all done their best.

But the problem is that the people in charge of the dojo are relatively weak and it is difficult for them to take care of the whole situation.

Guanghui smiled and said, "Let's be patient for a while. Once the Tianmen is built, we will have some free time."

Yuan Xiao sighed, "It's easy to say, but at this speed, when will the Tianmen be completed?"

Everyone was only responsible for guarding the temple and protecting it. Although they knew their own progress and the situation of the people around them, they were not clear about the overall progress of Tianmen.

Apart from the True Lords of each family, probably only those who have sufficient qualifications and strength in each family are qualified to know this secret.

For example, Penglai’s deputy leader, the master of Tianxuan Peak, Lingyuan.

Li Sangyuan said, "When it comes to the construction of Tianmen, Brother Lingyuan is the last one to come, but he is the one who knows the progress the most. Am I right?"

Jiang Sheng couldn't help but laugh and said, "Xuan Fang, where did you get this from?"

Li Sangyuan said: "Everyone knows that Brother Lingyuan and the young leader of the Qianji Sect, Fairy Yan Xiaoyan, are old acquaintances. The Qianji Sect is the main force in building Tianmen. Did Fairy Yan reveal something to you, Brother?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at Jiang Sheng. Jiang Sheng and Yan Xiao were old acquaintances, so this was naturally clear to everyone.

And Yan Xiao also came to see Jiang Sheng off in person that day, so it's hard to say that she didn't reveal some information to Jiang Sheng.

However, Jiang Sheng said calmly: "That doesn't make sense."

"It's true that Fairy Yan and I are old acquaintances, but aren't you and I old acquaintances as well?"

"Since everyone wants to ask about the construction of Tianmen, how about I invite Fairy Yan Xiao to join us?"

Bai Qiu said immediately: "Okay."

Logically speaking, with Yan Xiaotian's Yuanying's aptitude, he is truly a first-class genius in the whole world, and is also a true disciple in various holy places.

However, Yan Xiao’s Taoist heritage is from the Qianji Sect.

The key lies here. Yan Xiaofei is not the descendant of the holy places, so it is naturally impossible for him to enter this place.

It seems that everyone is the Heavenly Dao Yuanying, but in the invisible sense, they are different.

The threshold may be transparent, but it does not mean it does not exist. As for Duobao, not to mention that he was invited by Jiang Sheng, Duobao is still Taiyi Yuanshen. When a person grows to Taiyi Yuanying or even Taiyi Yuanshen on his own without the help of external forces from the sect.

Sect background, identity and power are not important things to Duobao.

No matter where Duobao goes, even if he visits various holy places, he will receive the same level of reception.

When Jiang Sheng asked Yan Xiao to come, he was actually giving Yan Xiao an opportunity.

The Qianji Sect was already a subsidiary of the Tianhe Dao Sect, and Bai Qiu and other true disciples of the Tianhe Dao Sect were also acquainted with Yan Xiao, so naturally they had no objection.

Hearing this, several people did not refuse, and soon Yan Xiao was invited to Xiao Penglai.

Everyone was sitting in a circle in the hall, with no distinction between first and second seats, so Yan Xiao sat next to Bai Qiu.

"Yan Xiao greets all the fellow Taoists."

"Meet Fairy Yan."

After a few pleasantries, Yuan Xiao smiled and said, "Fairy Yan, since the construction of Tianmen has begun, we have watched with eager eyes as the natural materials and treasures were melted into bricks and tiles for the city walls and sent up to the sky, but we still don't know how the progress is."

"Fairy Yan, can you tell us about it?"

Yan Xiao smiled when he heard this and said, "If you guys want to ask me these questions, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. Although the construction of Tianmen is generally under the responsibility of Qianji Sect, the actual construction is still done by the various holy places where you are."

"My Qianji Sect only proposed the plan, prepared the blueprints, and then let our disciples supervise the construction of each location. The one who assembled the Heavenly Gate was also my Qianji Sect's Shenji Patriarch and the elders of each of you sects."

"How can I, a junior, know the progress of Tianmen?"

Although everyone had a guess in their hearts, they still felt helpless when they heard this.

Seeing this, Yan Xiao thought for a moment and then said, "But I have been in charge of the supervision these days. Whether it is the consumption of various spiritual treasures and divine irons or the casting of various parts, I have some idea of ​​it."

"I think in another year or so, it will be almost there."

A year or so is really not a long time.

It stands to reason that a fortress pass that covers an area of ​​one million or even hundreds of millions of square meters and consumes countless natural treasures to build would take at least dozens or hundreds of years to complete.

After all, just engraving the array patterns and branding the spiritual bans would require countless cultivators who are proficient in array formations to carry out the work, and this process consumes a lot of the cultivator's spiritual awareness and can easily lead to mental exhaustion.

Not to mention all kinds of rare treasures and various formation processes.

This is a huge project, and it can only be completed quickly if the six holy places in the Mountain and River Realm work together.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Sheng also said: "The speed of the construction of Tianmen is very secret. It is not easy for Fairy Yan to say this."

"If there is really only a year or so left, fellow Taoists should be cautious. I think Panfengjie will definitely delay the construction of Tianmen at all costs."

Guanghui nodded, as if thinking about something.

Jiang Sheng glanced at Guanghui and said nothing more.

As the topic of Tianmen came to an end, everyone continued to chat and discuss the Dao and the Dharma.

When the banquet was over and everyone left, Jiang Sheng left Guanghui behind.

"Master Jiang, do you have something to tell me?"

"It's not a big deal, but I just felt that you seemed to have something to say but didn't say it."

Guanghui listened and hesitated for a moment before saying, "To be honest with you, Master Jiang, I always feel that there seems to be some problems with the construction of Tianmen this time."

"Oh? What's the problem?" Jiang Sheng asked.

Guanghui looked up at the sky, looking at the huge hole in the sky, he saw a chaotic color covering it, and some mottled light could be vaguely seen.

That was the inspiration brought about by the forbidden formations set up by various holy places.

"Master Jiang, don't you think the construction of Tianmen went too smoothly?"

"It seems that the gods have shrunk into the sealed world and won't come out. Any movement they make is just a minor one, not even as good as the battle between gods and immortals when the two worlds collided before."

"It's so strange to just watch the Heavenly Gate gradually take shape."

After hearing what Guanghui said, Jiang Sheng nodded. He naturally understood what Guanghui said.

Ever since Panfeng Realm was connected with Shanhe Realm, the actions of the Shinto people in Panfeng Realm have been quite strange. It is hard to say what those Shinto people are planning in secret.

But they have all seen these situations, and the upper three realms of each family must be more clear.

Guanghui is a smart man, he won't say anything useless to Jiang Sheng.

Now that Guanghui and Jiang Sheng are saying this, there must be other metaphors.

Jiang Sheng waited quietly for Guanghui's next words.

Guanghui said, "It's so peaceful now. Not only the South China Sea, but the West China Sea is also very quiet."

The South China Sea and the West Sea are quiet, so aren’t the East China Sea and the North Sea also not quiet?

"It doesn't matter if it's not peaceful. The vast blue sea would become a dead sea if there were no wind or waves at all, right?" Jiang Sheng said with a smile.

Guanghui nodded, then smiled and said, "Master Jiang, this is absolutely true."

After saying this, Guanghui walked away.

Looking at Guanghui's departing figure, Duobao stepped forward and asked, "What did Monk Guanghui say to you?"

Jiang Sheng said calmly:
"Nothing, something must have gone wrong in the West Sea." (End of this chapter)
