Chronicles of Celestial Origins

In the majestic and majestic hall, an old man with white hair and beard was sitting at the guest seat.

Outside, a man with the body of a tiger and the waist of a wolf, and an imposing figure strode into the head office and said, "I just had to deal with some important matters, so I was delayed and kept my Taoist friends waiting for a long time."

"You're welcome, fellow Taoist Shangguan." The old man stood up and bowed his head in return.

The two sat opposite each other, Shangguan Yuancheng said: "After the battle on Jining Island, the demons in Mubei were completely defeated. The remaining defeated soldiers fled back to Mubei in embarrassment with their tails tucked in. From then on, there was no war on Qinghai. , we can also breathe a sigh of relief. This time we defeated the Mubei demon, it was all thanks to your organization's help. I would like to express my gratitude to your brothers on behalf of my sect and my colleagues in Qingzhou."

Zheng Youlin said: "This is what we agreed before. This department will do its best to help Guizong and his colleagues in Qingzhou to repel the Mubei demon. A man has said what he said, how can he break his promise to others. Now that the Mubei demon has been driven out of Qingzhou, After escaping from Qinghai, I have fulfilled my original promise. I wonder how fellow Daoist Shangguan can fulfill your promise."

"Fellow Taoist, please rest assured that the agreement between your organization and us is known to the world. This sect will never break its promise to the world. For those areas under the jurisdiction of Qinghai and Donglai County, your organization can send people to take over at any time."

"Thank you so much, fellow Taoist."

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Zheng, I see that your troops have already assembled. I heard that they are preparing to head back to the Netherworld Sea. Why are you in such a hurry?"

"This is the time to say goodbye to fellow Taoist. The matter of Qinghai is over, and we can't stay in Qingzhou for a long time. We'd better return to Netherworld Sea as soon as possible!"

"After fighting against the Mubei demon for so many years, our brothers have worked hard and should take a good rest. Since your army is about to leave, I will ask the disciples of the Allied Army to give me a ride to express my gratitude."

"I understand your kindness. There is no need for cultivators to stick to secular etiquette. Besides, the headquarters will start allocating funds immediately, so we don't need to bother fellow Taoists. We will leave some people to hand over the jurisdiction of Qinghai and Donglai County. Please tell me. Friends can take care of you."

"In this case, I won't stay. There's just one thing. Although the demons have temporarily retreated to Mubei, there is no guarantee that they will not come back. If your troops all withdraw to the Netherworld Sea, how will you be able to defend yourself against the enemy when the demons sweep through Qinghai again in the future? "

"This time, the Mubei coalition assembled a heavy army to invade Qingzhou, but they fled in embarrassment and were seriously injured. It is expected that they will not dare to attack again in a short time. Furthermore, if Mubei came with a large army, it would not be able to assemble it in a few days. Yes, our headquarters will come to help when the time comes.”

"If I follow my wishes, I can march into Mubei and completely exterminate the demons. This is the way to do it once and for all. Unfortunately, after so many years, we have also suffered heavy casualties. It is a waste of resources and no sects are willing to launch a war. , marching into Mubei. Alas! The nine counties of Mubei are vast and have abundant supplies. After they gather their strength, they will inevitably start another war."

"As the saying goes, when soldiers come, they will be blocked, and when water comes, the soil will cover them up. Fellow Taoist Shangguan, don't worry too much."

The two chatted for a while, Zheng Youlin stood up and left, while Shangguan Chengyuan saw him off.

Outside the city, hundreds of warships rose into the sky, carrying everyone from Netherworld Sea towards the northwest.

………………

Tang Ning followed the warship back to the station room and sat down cross-legged. He was transferred to the front line ten years ago. At that time, the Qingzhou Alliance Army had successively taken back the occupied Tingcheng in Fenghua City, and the Mubei demons retreated. On the Qinghai Islands, they fought stubbornly.

Since the frontline legions suffered heavy casualties and were scarce in troops, several legions stationed in Donglai County were pulled to the front line.

At that time, Tang Ning followed the 23rd Army Corps from Donglai County to Fenghua City, and then participated in three battles against Xuanyuan Island, Qixing Island, and Jining Island.

Because the Qingzhou Allied Forces had innovated their tactics, low-level monks like them, such as Jindan and Nascent Soul, stayed on the Wind Spirit Ship, Tianling Ship, and Thunder Baggage Ship. They were located at the back of the entire team and were only responsible for fire cover.

In addition, in these three battles, he used superior forces to attack the enemy and defeated the trapped beasts. Therefore, he was not injured after the three battles.

In fact, they would only attack at the end of the battle when the defeated soldiers chasing Mubei deserters were clearing the battlefield. At that time, the Mubei demons had already been defeated and it was difficult to organize effective resistance. Therefore, when a large group of monks rushed up, they basically They are all the way the autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves.

After the Battle of Jining Island, the last strength of the Mubei Allied Forces was dispersed. There were no longer any regiments stationed by them from the south of Jining Island, and they fled all the way back to the Mubei Grassland.

The Qingzhou Allied Forces pursued for three million miles, killed countless demons, and then returned in triumph, marking the end of the war.

As for whether he would attack Mubei in one go and recapture the counties occupied by demons, he could not know. However, judging from the deployment of the Allied forces, there was no such plan, because all the legions had withdrawn inland.

Attacking the Mubei Grassland is no small matter. It is already the home of demons. They have built strong fortifications over the years to prevent Xuanmen from pursuing the victory after Qinghai's defeat.

If we really want to attack, it will definitely not be so sparse, so everyone speculates that the war has come to an end.

Tang Ning turned her hand, swallowed a pill, sat cross-legged in the room and closed her eyes to practice.

………………

Qinghai, Jining Island, the majestic palace is spacious and bright, where many men and women gather together, talking and laughing softly, and the atmosphere is cheerful.

Not long after, two men walked in side by side. The man on the left had slightly white temples and a square face.

The man on the right has a leopard head, ape arms, and a tall body.

When everyone saw the two people arriving, they stood up one after another.

"Fellow Daoist Hu, please take a seat." The man with slightly white temples on the left said with a smile.

The man on the right waved his hand: "Fellow Taoist, this department has always emphasized the equality of everyone, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior. Now that you allow me to take the seat, doesn't it mean that I am above all the brothers? The old world of Xuanmen We cannot engage in a corrupt system.”

"Yes." The man surnamed Yu on the left looked a little embarrassed, and responded after a slight pause: "I was negligent. What Fellow Daoist Hu said is true. This is originally the meeting hall of the Mubei demon. We have requisitioned it for the time being. The interior layout has not been changed yet." Change, so I accidentally forgot the rules of this department, and I will level this step later."

"Fellow Taoists, please take a seat!" The man surnamed Hu said and took a seat next to everyone.

"Fellow Taoist Hu Yanyan is the general manager sent by the Nether Sea Headquarters to take over the specific affairs of Jining Island. From now on, he will be in charge of all the affairs of Jining Island." The man surnamed Yu said: "Fellow Taoist Hu, let me introduce, this is Fellow Daoist Zhang Ying, this is Fellow Daoist Yuan Qing, and this is Fellow Daoist Huang Youchu..."

The man surnamed Yu nodded with everyone: "First of all, let me tell you some good news. From now on, all the islands in Qinghai are under our jurisdiction. We have just handed over the handover with Xuanmen and the Chamber of Commerce. The headquarters sent me to Jining Island to take charge of the overall situation. , but we still have to rely on your help for specific matters.”

"Although we now control the Qinghai Islands, due to the previous war, these islands were riddled with holes and in a mess. In addition, a large number of monks fled, and this place has almost become an empty island."

"It is very difficult for fellow Taoists to stay here, but the road ahead is still long and arduous. Now is the beginning of a lot of waste, and all fellow Taoists must work together to restore the prosperity of the Qinghai Islands."

"According to the instructions from the headquarters, we will open up all the cultivation resources in Qinghai and share them equally with everyone to attract more monks to join us. In addition, we will also lay out fire veins, add free alchemy rooms, weapon refining rooms, and There are the processes for making spiritual food and spiritual wine, as well as the manufacturing of spiritual weapons.”

"From now on, Qinghai will become our base camp. All fellow Taoists who join our organization must learn skills such as alchemy, weapon refining, talisman making, formation formation, etc. Everyone must have a skill, including me and all the fellow Taoists."

"Everyone must be self-sufficient and create value. It is absolutely not allowed to sit back and take nothing, like those high-level monks in the Xuanmen sect, who only take but do not contribute."

"All the wealth created, including the output of the spiritual mine, must be handed over to us, and then distributed according to everyone's needs. Private pocketing is not allowed. Anyone who violates this will be severely punished."

"I would like to remind you here, don't think that as the master of Qinghai, you will forget the rules and disciplines of this department and learn from Xuanmen's ways."

"What they do is something we will never allow. If there are any offenders, we will not be lenient."

"I will supervise everyone, and you can also supervise me. If there is any misconduct or violation of rules, you can report it to your superiors."

"Yes." Everyone responded.

The man surnamed Hu continued: "Now I ask you to obey my order and follow the following steps."

"First, immediately count all the cultivation resources in Jining Island to make sure they are real and not to be concealed."

"Second, send manpower to search for those civilians and monks hiding in the ravines and mountains, and resettle them. Post notices in various places to appease people, and show us the decision we just made."

"Third, all Qinghai Islands must implement a unified management method. The monks will build the monk city, and the mortals will build the mortal kingdom. The monks and mortals will be completely isolated. The monks shall not interfere with the mortal kingdom."

"Fourth, build the Mortal Transformation City, let all children with spiritual roots enter the Mortal Transformation City, and send monks to uniformly teach the methods of cultivation."

"Fifth, there are some cultivating families on this island who defected to the Demon Sect when the Mubei Demon came. After the Qingzhou Alliance Army retook the island, they surrendered through various relationships. Now they are given two choices. First, accept Our unified arrangement is to join our organization and divide them into various islands. Second, give them ten days to leave Qinghai, otherwise they will all be killed."

"From now on, brothel-like lofts are not allowed to be built on the island, nor are gambling houses allowed to be built. No matter it is a cultivation city or a mortal country, any discovery will not be treated lightly."
