The Immortal Spiritual Picture
Chapter 1768: Jiuyan and Castles in the Air (1/2)
The waiting time is always very long. Now it is June 15th, and there are still four months and two days to October 17th.
As if to celebrate the unsealing of the Land of Soul Destruction, there are suddenly more monks in various towns and cities. Seeing this, many powerful merchants took the opportunity to hold auctions. The Gu family also spread the news that they want to sell some warships, which attracted many forces to buy them.
The Gu family made another fortune with these old warships.
Although it is not much, it is of great significance.
Before the unsealing of the Land of Soul Destruction, Gu Qingqing asked people to count the number of monks in various cultivation realms in the Donggu Dynasty.
Of course, this survey is mainly aimed at high-level monks, especially the cultivators of the Void Refining and the Combined Body, which can be regarded as the mainstay of the Donggu Dynasty; although some monks will leave after the Land of Soul Destruction is unsealed, there are also many high-level monks who have been tied to the Donggu Dynasty and cannot easily get out.
It is not difficult to investigate how many high-level monks there are in the Land of Soul Destruction at present, because it is not a secret in some aspects. Not all forces like to hide their strength like the Gu family. Although most forces will leave a way out for themselves, they usually secretly branch out to create new forces to transfer the fire, etc. However, if a high-level cultivator in their own sect advances, most of the time they will not keep it secret.
After all, the more high-level cultivators there are, the more benefits they can occupy.
The Gu family has already occupied all the benefits, so naturally there is no need to show off their strength.
While Gu Qingqing sent people to investigate and count the number of high-level cultivators in the Donggu Dynasty, Gu Qingyan was not idle either. He was also counting the total number of cultivators in the Gu family, as well as the number of cultivators who are proficient in the hundred arts of cultivation, etc.
Immortal cultivation forces like the Gu family will naturally regularly count the number of cultivators in the force and their cultivation realm, but under normal circumstances there will be some delays, after all, many cultivators are in seclusion all year round, and the situation of the Gu family, which owns the Xuantian Tower, is even more special.
Especially for the specific cultivation realm of high-level cultivators, the news lags more.
But fortunately, now is not the time for the opening of the Mitian Realm, and there are not many high-level cultivators in the Gu family who are in seclusion, so it is easier to count their cultivation.
So not long after, there were two more jade slips in front of Gu Changhuan.
They were given to him by Gu Qingyan and Gu Qingqing, recording the number of high-level cultivators in the Gu family and the Donggu Dynasty.
Of course, the number of high-level cultivators counted by Gu Qingqing did not include the cultivators of the Gu family.
It was a coincidence that Gu Qingqing and Gu Qingye did not agree to come to Gu Changhuan together to report, but met in front of Gu Changhuan's palace.
After standing in front of the gate and talking for a while, they found that their purpose today was the same.
"What a coincidence.
We actually thought of the same thing."
Gu Qingyan said so.
The affairs of the Donggu Dynasty have always been the responsibility of Gu Qingqing and Gu Qingzhong. As the head of the Gu family, Gu Qingyan's first responsibility is naturally to manage the many affairs of the Gu family.
Gu Qingqing raised the jade slip in his hand,
"After all, we are about to meet with other forces, and we can't be unclear about how many cards we have in our hands."
Gu Qingyan nodded, he also thought so.
On the other side, Gu Changhuan was reading the pill recipe notes, and the puppet came to inform that Gu Qingqing and Gu Qingyan were here.
At this time, Gu Changhuan was lying on the couch in a messy manner. Because he had been reading the pill recipe for several days after taking a bath, he was still wearing a middle-length shirt and his long hair was loose.
Although the image is not quite the same, the style is very much like a otaku.
"I didn't hear Qingqing and the others say they were coming before."
Gu Changhuan said so, put down the pill recipe in his hand and sat up straight,
"Let them sit for a while, I'll go to see them later."
He didn't have the habit of meeting people with disheveled hair.
The puppet didn't think too much, and turned around to entertain Gu Qingqing and Gu Qingyan.
Although his puppet brain is not very useful, he still knows how to entertain guests.
This is why every time people come to Gu Changhuan's cave to visit, they are fed with many snacks and spiritual fruits by the puppet.
Not to mention, although the snacks used by Gu Changhuan to entertain guests are all made by the puppet, they still taste very good.
Gu Qingqing was not polite at all. He ate three plates in a row with a small plate, and the puppet quickly added another three kinds of snacks.
When Gu Changhuan came out after washing up, Gu Qingqing had finished his second cup of tea. He looked so full that Gu Changhuan couldn't help but smile.
He shifted his gaze from the half-empty snack plate to Gu Qingqing and the other person, raised his hand to signal that the two did not need to stand up, sat down, teased Gu Qingqing, and then started to talk about business.
When he learned that the two came to report to him how many high-level cultivators there were in the East Gu Dynasty and the Gu family, Gu Changhuan nodded.
Although he did not ask the two to do this, the two of them thought it through thoroughly, worthy of being the clan leader and prime minister who had been tempered for so many years.
Just like that, Gu Changhuan looked at the jade slips handed over by the two while listening to their reports.
Gu Qingqing spoke first, and she was naturally in charge of the Donggu Dynasty.
"Currently, there are 36 combined cultivators in the Donggu Dynasty, 12 of whom are affiliated with the army, and 14 others serve in the dynasty;
Among the remaining ten people, there were only four casual cultivators in the minority. Two of the remaining six people originally had a sect and belonged to a sect outside the land of spiritual destruction, and were not vassals of the Gu family.
The number of Void Refining monks is twice that of the Fusion monks, with a total of 1,054 people; 287 people in the army; 86 people in the dynasty;
The remaining 70% belong to the forces affiliated with the Gu family, and the remaining 30% are casual cultivators. "
As Gu Qingqing said this, Gu Changhuan played with the jade slip in his hand, and his spiritual consciousness was naturally reading the content of the seal.
Although it is true that there are not many high-level casual cultivators, the proportion will be more than this under normal circumstances; and the reason why the number of pure casual cultivators high-level cultivators in the Land of Spiritual Destruction is much smaller than normal is that in Donggu After the establishment of the dynasty, the Gu family organized many casual cultivators into the army and immortality academies, which is why this happened.
Naturally, there were not so many fusion monks in the Land of Soul Destruction at the beginning. The reason why there were so many high-level monks was thanks to the Gu family. After the Gu family became a Mahayana force, they auctioned off fusion opportunities many times and also supported them. Many monks in the Donggu Dynasty's army and monks from affiliated forces have advanced to fusion. Otherwise, I am afraid that the number of fused monks in the Land of Spiritual Destruction will not exceed twenty.
Naturally, this is also true for the large number of Void Refining monks.
After Gu Qingqing said this, pride was obvious on her face, but in the end she pursed her lips and said matter-of-factly:
"Although the number of high-level monks in the Donggu Dynasty is much higher than before, according to records, our Donggu Dynasty may still be insufficient compared to other Mahayana forces."
Gu Changhuan nodded, but he didn't think it was anything.
"It doesn't matter, these are just a matter of time.
Whether it is the Donggu Dynasty or the Gu family, the current foundation cannot be compared with those old Mahayana forces, so you don't need to care too much. "
Judging from its size, the Land of Spiritual Destruction is indeed enough to serve as the foundation for a Mahayana force. However, judging from the situation of the human race in the spirit world, except for the Luohua Cave and the Merchant Alliance, which are under special circumstances, most of the human Mahayana forces occupy one territory. In this territory, there is not only one Mahayana force fighting alone, but also countless affiliated forces, etc.;
If one day the Mahayana forces in their territory want to launch a war, all the monks from the forces in the entire territory will be mobilized. The number of high-level monks that can be mobilized will often be more than the Mahayana forces themselves. That will be a truly big scene where a hundred people respond to one call.
The Nine Flames Realm that the Land of Spiritual Destruction originally occupied did not originally have Mahayana forces. According to what Gu Changhuan learned after ascending to the spirit world, the reason why there are no Mahayana forces entrenched here is probably related to Zhen Lingzi and another human Mahayana. Loose cultivators also have something to do with it.
There are six realms and two domains in the human race in the spiritual world;
The six realms are: Pagoda, Tiger Roar, Tianzhao, Shuangyu, Pagoda, and Nine Flames.
The two domains are the Demon Burial Domain and the Ice Domain.
Five of the six realms are occupied by the Mahayana forces of the human race. Only the Jiuyan territory has no Mahayana forces.
Because after the war between the alien races and the human race stabilized, Zhen Lingzi, who was born as a casual cultivator, and another great ancestor of the human race, Mahayana Qu, who was born as a casual cultivator, lived in this Nine Flames Realm.
Perhaps because these two people, especially Zhen Lingzi, played a huge role in the alien war, other Mahayana forces did not divide the Nine Flames Realm until Zhen Lingzi and Qu Laozu fell one after another and went to Wusheng. As the epidemic spread, the territory of Jiuyan has not been occupied by any Mahayana force.
According to Gu Changhuan's guess, it may be because the interests involved are too large and difficult to divide within the human race, so I want to wait until which Mahayana force becomes more powerful in the future and can overwhelm other Mahayana forces. When the time comes to talk about the ownership of the Nine Flames Realm, it will naturally be easier to talk about;
Or it would be okay to wait for someone from a combined force in the Nine Flames realm to suddenly advance to Mahayana, and then slowly rule the entire Nine Flames realm.
However, it is hard to say whether there are other Mahayana forces in the human race behind this advanced Mahayana monk.
But no matter what the human race's Mahayana plan is, Gu Changhuan can only say that if the external situation of the human race does not change for so many years, the land of spiritual destruction will be unsealed in the future, and the Donggu Dynasty can go north to point the sword at the Bone Clan, and go south to command the remaining nine people. There are many forces in the Flame Realm.
In this way, part of the foundation of the Donggu Dynasty can be quickly replenished.
After hearing what Gu Changhuan said, Gu Qingqing nodded and made some plans in his heart.
On the other side, when Gu Qingyan saw Gu Changhuan's eyes moving over, he also told his statistics about the distribution of the number of high-level monks in the Gu family:
"So far, our Gu family has a total combined combat strength of seventy-three, including our Gu family monks, elders Gu family Ke Qing, spiritual beasts, etc.;
The Void Refining Combat Power is one thousand three hundred and eighty-four, including elders such as Ke Qing, spiritual beasts, etc.;
At present, the total number of Gu family monks has reached three million, and the proportion of monks is balanced, with slightly more high-level monks;
The number of ordinary people has reached 50 billion. "
Hearing this, Gu Changhuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said in surprise:
"so much?!"
Are the Gu family mortals bees?
You are so capable of living, but you don’t want to die?
Could it be that some genius invented and refined an elixir that would allow mortal men to have children?
It took the combined efforts of men and women to allow the mortals of the Gu family to rapidly expand the human race in just a few hundred or thousands of years?
But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't feel right. Didn't he hear about this?
It’s really weird how you think about it.
Gu Qingyan nodded and explained:
"When I was exorcising the disease from the mortals in the entire Land of Spiritual Destruction, I had many mortals who were not protected by the cultivating forces move into the Gu family city."
Otherwise, the mere mortals of the Gu family would not be able to give birth to so many children.
Of course, originally, the mortals of the human race in the spirit world should be protected by the immortal cultivating forces, but there are inevitably some surprises, such as the immortal cultivating forces being suddenly destroyed, or a certain family suddenly thinking of finding some kind of paradise, and then the whole family will Moving to deep mountains and old forests, etc. This happens all the time.
For example, when the Deuxu Clan was destroyed before, the mortals in its territory naturally returned to the Gu family. After the migration, they married the mortals of the Gu family, etc., and after a few generations they became the descendants of the Gu family.
Hearing this, Gu Changhuan suddenly realized, and then he couldn't help thinking that he had been cultivating immortals for too long. He could solve any problem with spiritual objects and spiritual stones, and he almost forgot about population migration.
With a hammer in your hand, everything looks like a nail!
Gu Changhuan thought this and chuckled secretly as he continued to listen to Gu Qingyan's report.
Gu Qingyan was always thorough in his work and his reports were comprehensive, but he explained all aspects of the Gu family's current situation in just two hours.
After listening to Gu Qingyan's report, Gu Changhuan couldn't help but sigh that the development of the Gu family in recent years was indeed amazing, and the development in many aspects had exceeded his imagination.
He was naturally very satisfied with this.
However, Gu Qingyan felt a little worried. After thinking for a while, he said:
"The Gu family currently claims to be the king and hegemon in the land of spiritual destruction. Not to mention their strength, even in terms of business, they are second to none;
But after leaving the Land of Spiritual Destruction, our Gu family's shop is likely to be greatly affected. "
Here, Gu Changhuan said while his brain was working rapidly, digesting a lot of news:
"It doesn't matter, I don't intend to make a fortune just by doing business;
As for other aspects, isn’t there Feihan? "
After hearing what Gu Changhuan said, the last bit of anxiety in Gu Qingyan's heart disappeared.
I saw him nod slightly and smile,
"Such a nephew is really looking forward to the days after the Land of Soul Destruction is unsealed."
Gu Changhuan said "hmm" and did not forget to remind:
“Although you have all advanced to become one, don’t forget to hone your skills.
We will have to fight for several years next, so don’t let the foreign races underestimate us, the human race. "
Hearing this, Gu Qingyan and Gu Qingqing were shocked, and they unanimously said yes.
The time passed much faster next time. Before Gu Changhuan had finished deducing a pill recipe, it was October 17th, the day to break the Spiritual Destruction Land formation.
On this day, many monks gathered in Guyuan City, the capital of the Donggu Dynasty, hoping to see Emperor Gu and Gu Changhuan break the Spiritual Destruction Land formation in Guyuan City.
Unexpectedly, the weak point of the formation deduced by Dieyi and others was not near Gu Yuancheng, or even near the Beigu Mountains, but somewhere in the center of the human race.
However, for some purposes, Gu Changhuan still had someone set up a video transmission device so that the scene when the formation was broken could be witnessed by the many monks gathered in Gu Yuan City.
The imaging device is installed in the largest auction house in Gu Yuan City. The auction house is called Castle in the Sky. There is nothing special about it. However, during the recent expansion of Gu Yuan City, the Gu family also changed the auction house. The largest venue was directly moved into the air. It was set off by formations, with clouds and mist bridging gold crystals as walls. It was located in the air and overlooked most of Guyuan City. However, the pavilions could not be seen from the outside. They were completely covered by formations. It can be said that it was A veritable castle in the air.
The auctions that can be held here are usually the eighth-level auctions, and spiritual objects below the sixth level will not be auctioned here; therefore, the number of times it is used here is not many.
But unexpectedly, the castle in the sky here is not only shining with golden light, but also very large, even if it can accommodate tens of thousands of monks at the same time, there is no problem.
Because the auction venue here is not easy to use, many people have only heard of the name of the Castle in the Sky, but have never seen it with their own eyes; but they do not expect that one day they will step into the Castle in the Sky, not to auction spiritual objects, but to watch the broken formation.
Here, Gu Qingxuan was sitting behind Gu Qingqing and others. His consciousness swept across the many monks whispering in the tower in the sky, and various noisy voices came into his mind.
I saw him frowning, and after thinking for a while, the true pressure of the combined realm was immediately released. In an instant, it spread to every corner of the entire castle in the air. Many monks who were still discussing in low voices or communicating through sound transmission were suddenly choked. Shut up immediately as if it hurt your neck.
The entire auction venue, which was a castle in the air, suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a needle drop.
It finally calmed down.
Gu Qingxuan's eyebrows relaxed a little, but the anxiety in his heart lingered.
Today is the day when his uncle is preparing to break the formation of the Land of Soul Destruction. Gu Qingxuan is a little anxious, but he can't go to see it yet. He can only maintain order here. As he looks forward to it, he can't help but become more agitated.
At the same time, He Lianyue, who was sitting in the pavilion on the other side, made a gesture of pinching her mouth and looked at her two companions.
They are Shujuan and Tang Tingyu respectively.
The three of them met at the Immortal Cultivation Academy built by the royal family, and because of their similar temperaments, they have become friends until now;
Ever since He Lianyue graduated from the Immortal Cultivation Academy, she has opened a shop specializing in ointments and incense in the capital. Because she is good at this and is careful, thoughtful and eloquent, the business has been very good and she has made a lot of money. She has no fewer spiritual stones than her elders in the army.
In addition, He Lianyue is an alchemist and has a small network of her own through years of business. She can be said to be like a fish in water in Guyuan City. The most intuitive manifestation is that she has now reached the late stage of Nascent Soul and is far away from becoming a god. Not far away.
As for Tang Tingyu and Shujuan, one chose to go to the wilderness to work hard and gain experience, while the other was directly hired as an official in the dynasty. Although they chose different paths, their lives are good now. It can be said that they are prosperous. Everyone has their own enjoyment.
In their spare time, the three of them often gather in Guyuan City. Anyway, He Lianyue's shop is here, so it is very convenient to find her.
What Tang Tingyu didn't expect was that He Lianyue excitedly told her when she came back this time that she had grabbed some invitations and could enter the castle in the sky to admire the power and grace of the Mahayana monks.
Tang Tingyue was confused when she heard this, and it took her a while to understand the cause and effect.
It turns out that this incident is related to what she heard about the upcoming unsealing of the Land of Soul Destruction.
"See, here are the invitations. I spent a lot of effort to get three of them.
Without this invitation, ordinary Nascent Soul monks like us would have no chance of entering the castle in the air. "
He Lianyue said this, Tang Tingyu spread her hands and asked:
"Anything else?"
"Of course there is!"
He Lianyue was very excited, and she talked a lot, and her excitement seemed to be even more exciting than that she had advanced to become a god.
Tang Tingyue was very puzzled.
Isn't it just a high-end auction venue? Even if you can get some souvenirs by entering it, you won't be so happy, right?
But it wasn't until she entered the castle in the air with He Lianyue and Shujuan today that she fully understood why He Lianyue was so excited.
Let’s not mention the various ethereal and brilliant fairyland-like landscapes and buildings for the time being. Let’s just say that the scene of walking all over the ground was enough to make the eyes of the three Nascent Soul cultivators go round.
Although there are many more high-level monks in the Land of Spiritual Destruction than before, many high-level monks are in seclusion all year round and are not easy to see.
It seems that the last time I saw so many high-level monks was when I graduated from the Immortal Cultivation Academy.
But the various formation restrictions in the castle in the air are really very clever. After she came in, she looked around for a long time, but she still couldn't get a clue. She didn't know where the formation was specifically arranged, let alone what refining methods were used to make it. Refining and carving created this fairyland-like castle in the air.
Over there, He Lianyue couldn't help but chattered, and at the same time, she took out the photo stone and frantically recorded everything around her.
At this moment, a powerful force of true energy came from nowhere. Tang Tingyu couldn't help but muttered in a low voice, "Who dares to release his true energy pressure in the presence of the royal family?"
But she reacted as soon as she finished speaking and quickly closed her mouth.
Even He Lianyue made a gesture of silence.
The only person who dares to release his true energy pressure in the royal family is the only royal monk, and judging from the true energy pressure, he should be a royal monk in the combined realm.
Amazing.
Tang Tingyu was so envious.
A high-level monk, a high-level monk from the royal family. Looking at the entire land of spiritual destruction, there are few people who can compare with him.
Tang Tingyu and the other three exchanged glances, and they all calmed down, but He Lianyue still did not put away the image stone in her hand.
If you miss this time, you don’t know when you will have the opportunity next time.
And not everyone has the opportunity to see a Mahayana monk take action.
But He Lianyue couldn't figure out how they could see the scene of Mahayana monks breaking the formation in this castle-like auction venue?
Could it be that the isolation formation in the Land of Spiritual Destruction had already been broken and recorded, and then the video was shown to them during this incident?
