第303章 钦定泰1，1后2妃（下1章应该就是大结局了）
When the Western King takes action with the help of the Rakshasa Emperor's weapon, the demonic calamity caused by the Undying Demon Lord will come to an end, and the only remaining question will be how much damage will be done.
With the intervention of various deities, the evil spirits had nowhere to escape. The army entered the area affected by the demonic disaster and rescued dozens of lucky survivors.
"To prevent the Undying Demon Lord's clone from blending into the crowd, these people are immediately sent to Jiuxiang County for quarantine, awaiting the Emperor's clone to come and inspect them personally!"
The Golden Cave Sect suffered greatly as a result. If Hu Yuzhu had not been an avatar of the Undying Demon Lord, the losses to the Golden Cave Heaven would not have been so severe.
"In order to create the Heavenly River Yellow Springs Nine Netherworld Reincarnation Array, in addition to the immortals and gods under the command of the emperors descending to the mortal world to set up the array, even powerful beings such as the Heavenly Duke, Heavenly Marquis, and Heavenly Earl have been mobilized!"
Su Ji's plan was for the greater good of the world. As long as it was recognized by the Heavenly Court, there was no need to hide it. If someone were to cause trouble at this critical juncture, it would be exactly what Su Ji wanted.
As expected, even the Moon Goddess, the Moon Queen, had no intention of interfering in the internal affairs of the Heavenly Court; she could only keep questioning the matter of the Rakshasa Emperor's Weapon.
"The Rakshasa Emperor Weapon is one of the greatest treasures of the Taiyin Star. It is fine for the Golden Toad Great Sage to keep it, but it cannot be used to deal with the Undying Demon Lord."
"Now that the Rakshasa Emperor Weapon has been corrupted by the negative forces of the earth's origin, its inner path is nearly half obscured, and there is no possibility of it being restored to its original state. The Golden Toad Great Sage and even the Heavenly Court must provide compensation!"
This is the price that must be paid to deal with the Undying Demon Lord. The Undying Demon Lord has been able to stir up trouble for countless ages because he has accurately grasped the weaknesses of all the emperors.
After all, whether it's the imperial weapon being covered in dust or the emperor's essence being polluted, it will affect the fate of the clan and even the general trend of heaven and earth, so many emperors simply stand by and watch.
In ancient times, only when the demonic calamity caused by the Undying Demon Lord exceeded a certain limit would the various emperors join forces to suppress it.
Later, the human race rose to power and gradually developed from the region abandoned by the Dragon and Phoenix Emperors. Through the efforts of the Five Emperors, the scope of the demonic calamity was limited to the vicinity.
After reaching a certain balance, the Undying Demon Lord was no longer the chaotic being who only cared about killing. Instead, he gradually grew and transformed into the intelligent being he is today, and even began to covet the origin of the earth.
Now it seems that we have entered a new stage, which is to completely destroy the Undying Demon Lord. If we can succeed, even losing an imperial weapon is nothing, not to mention that the Rakshasa Imperial Weapon is just covered in dust.
As a result, public opinion did not follow the lead of the Moon Goddess, and all eyes were on the project jointly undertaken by the Golden Toad Great Sage and the Heavenly Court: if it succeeded, the sacrifice of the Rakshasa Emperor's weapon would be worthwhile; if it failed, the Moon Goddess would have to give an explanation.
Fourteen years have passed in the blink of an eye.
The White Rock Mountains have long since changed. Although the high-level blessed land has not yet been successfully built, the water of the Milky Way has already descended from the sky, flowing into the Golden Cave through the channels formed by the immortals and gods, and then falling into the earth to cleanse the filth and power accumulated on this land over the ages.
"The waters of the Milky Way cascade down like a waterfall, entering the Golden Cave and turning into the Yellow Springs... I've seen it so many times, and it's still so amazing!"
Li Hui, 68, had also resigned from the presidency, but the development of the new era was not so smooth. He had to take up the presidency again two years ago to gradually correct the path that was about to go astray.
An elderly man standing nearby sighed, "Will I ever see a high-level blessed land be born in my lifetime?"
This man was Zhou Wen, who came from Dongxi Village in Jinfeng County. He was a former imperial merchant of the previous dynasty and had been imprisoned because of Li Hui. He was one of the high-ranking members of the Dongxi Chamber of Commerce and one of the founding fathers of the nation.
Now, Zhou Wen has long since retired and is living a peaceful life in Dongxi Ercun. Upon learning that President Li Hui was coming, he naturally wanted to accompany him wholeheartedly.
"Although the construction of a higher-level grotto-heaven is as difficult as ascending to heaven, the Golden Toad Great Sage and even the emperors of the Heavenly Court are personally involved, so it should be completed in the next few years!"
The speaker was Zhou Lan, who had seen a god in a dream and was the first believer in the development of the God of Wealth faith by Su Ji and Yan Tianchou.
Over the years, Zhou Lan has not pursued fame or fortune, but has devoted himself to agriculture. With the help of Yantian Chou, he has become the most renowned grain expert in the new era.
In ancient times, Li Hui could be called the Human Emperor, and in the previous dynasty, he also held the title of Human Emperor... Although he did not call himself the Son of Heaven, he was favored by the Golden Toad Great Sage and was able to know some secrets.
“Creating a superior grotto-heaven is not difficult; the real challenge is how to thoroughly cleanse the earth of its original filth.”
Li Hui's hair and beard were slightly gray, but the energy and spirit brought by his cultivation of the Power God were particularly abundant, giving him a faint sense of youthful appearance and white hair.
Just as the elderly were chatting, a golden light suddenly flashed in the sun, landing like a rainbow over the east and west villages.
"What is that?" Zhou Wen was just an ordinary old man, and he only felt a flash of golden light before his eyes.
"I think I saw the figure of a goddess..." Zhou Lan had once served as a spirit soldier in the village's earth god temple, and now he was the spirit official of the Yuzhou City God, so he had a somewhat mystical feeling.
"Thirty years have passed, and she has returned." Li Hui came here to witness this scene with his own eyes.
When the whereabouts of the reincarnation of the Lesser Yin God were exposed, the Heavenly Court thoroughly investigated the case of the Western Vajra Hell and ultimately sentenced Zhang Xiaolian to be imprisoned on the Sun Star for thirty years.
During the Dragon Struggle, Li Hui was unaware of the Sun Goddess's identity. It was only after Zhang Xiaolian's identity as the Lesser Yin God was revealed that he learned that the girl he had once admired in his youth had not died, but had instead become a deity, fulfilling part of the legend.
Over the years, Li Hui has long since realized that the initial stirring in his heart was due to his attraction to the fairy-like aura of the Lesser Yin Divine Lord, the friendship they had cultivated in their youth, his dissatisfaction with the previous emperor's ruthless pursuit of Zhang Xiaolian, and his self-reproach for failing to protect his father's colleague's daughter.
Now that he has witnessed Zhang Xiaolian's return to the world, he has made up for his regret. Instead of leaving, he happily went to Dongxi Ercun with several friends.
Zhang Xiaolian is five years younger than Li Hui and is exactly sixty-three years old in this life. Her mother, Zhang Dengshi, is already over eighty years old and, despite taking many miraculous medicines, has become a very old and frail woman.
After all, not all cultivators can cultivate a true spirit and become a true immortal. Zhang Dengshi started cultivating relatively late, and is still some distance away from becoming a true immortal.
"mother!"
When they met again, Zhang Xiaolian didn't seem that excited, displaying a unique "aloofness" that comes with becoming a deity.
"Xiao Lian..."
Zhang Dengshi was overjoyed. Although she had seen her daughter in her dreams over the years, it was nothing compared to this meeting today.
On that day, a grand banquet was held in the two villages of Dongxi and Xi. Many of the guests became reserved, not only because the host of the banquet was a legendary deity, but also because President Li Hui and a group of founding fathers were also present.
"I still remember when I followed Chen Dianshi to the East and West Villages. First, I witnessed the farce of Master Zhu subduing the walking corpses, and then I helped the Earth God Temple resist the invasion of demons and ghosts..."
At this point, Li Hui couldn't help but ask curiously:
"How is Master Zhu Nanshan doing now?"
Zhou Wen was unaware of these things, so he looked at Zhou Lan and heard Zhou Lan laugh:
"After joining the East-West Chamber of Commerce, Master Zhu received the True Transmission of the Cave Profound Realm. However, because the Dao Fruit of Immortality was too difficult to cultivate, he eventually became a ghost immortal after death. He joined Zhou Wu's Ghost Division to participate in the battle against the evil demons in the Golden Cave, and then followed Zhou Wu to guard the Yellow Springs..."
Zhou Wu is Zhou Wen's younger brother. He was also chosen by the Pearl Maiden and renamed Qian Feng. He followed Su Ji to cultivate Taoism first and was also Li Hui's senior brother.
"Master Zhu, a rogue cultivator from the countryside, has become a ghost immortal, which is quite remarkable... Master Zhang is now the person in charge of the Earth Department for creating high-level blessed lands. The many spirit soldiers in the local earth god temple should also be following Master Zhang, right?"
In recent years, Li Hui has spent his time handling confidential matters and cultivating his skills, so he doesn't know much about the situation of these "little people." That's why he casually asked about it at today's banquet.
At this point, Zhang Dengshi, the hostess of the place, had the most authority to speak:
"Not entirely. The Zhongliu Divine Soldiers are now judges of the underworld at the City God Temple in Jinfeng County, while the Earth God Soldiers have become spirit officials of the local shrine..."
The other spirit soldiers continued to follow Zhang Gong, either as trusted messengers or as heads of small projects.
As for the others, Li Hui knew without even asking.
His father was originally a night-roaming spirit general in Jinfeng County, but now he has become a priest in charge of the Bright Moon Spirit Realm. Perhaps his father played a part in this, but his own abilities are also outstanding.
The two trusted confidants cultivated by Su Ji, Ren He, served as the divine master of the area before the Milky Way fell to the earth, while Wang Meng served as the divine commander of the area where the Milky Way transformed from the Golden Cave into the Yellow Springs. Both of them "ascended to heaven as chickens and dogs" and obtained the rank of divine king.
Upon realizing this, Li Hui's expression suddenly froze, and the lively banquet in front of him vanished, leaving only a boundless void.
"Greetings, Master!"
As a nine-colored ray of light descended, Su Ji's figure appeared instantly, followed by a beautiful silver-haired fairy to his left and a woman of ancient style to his right. "Greetings, Fairy Linglong! Greetings, Fairy Zhenyi!"
Suddenly, the sound of flowing water came from below. Li Hui looked down and saw a turbid Yellow Spring rushing towards the dark depths of the earth. A huge ghost god full of power stood motionless in the Yellow Spring water, and a beautiful goddess radiating a seven-colored dream light sat on her shoulder.
"Greetings, Senior Brother! Greetings, Goddess Pearl Light!"
Then, the face of an old man appeared on the earth, and in just a moment he transformed into a middle-aged immortal.
"I have met the Earthly Immortal!"
This person was none other than Zhang Gong, who led Su Ji onto the path of cultivation. Because he had mastered the Dao Fruit of Earthly Establishment, he was known to the world as the Earthly Establishment True Man.
Then, Zhang Xiaolian, who had appeared unremarkable to the world, also arrived here. She was dressed in a moon palace gown, with a bright moon shining with silver light behind her and a sun bird spreading its wings on her chest.
"Greetings, Master Lianmeng!"
Compared to titles such as Sun Goddess, Lesser Yin God, and Bright Moon Fairy, Zhang Xiaolian prefers the title of Lotus Dream Immortal.
At this point, apart from the legendary Algae Immortal and Sword Immortal who were absent, all of the Golden Toad Great Sage's closest confidants had arrived.
If these people were there to welcome Zhang Xiaolian back to the human world, that would be one thing, but Li Hui sensed that their gazes were all fixed on him.
"call……"
After paying his respects to the many immortals and gods, Li Hui couldn't help but feel a little nervous, even though he had experienced the struggles of the Dragon War and the new era.
"Li Hui—"
Su Ji made no attempt at polite formalities and directly stated his purpose:
"The plan to create a superior grotto-heaven is about to be completed. In order to cleanse the filth in the earth's origin, in addition to the water of the Milky Way, we also need the human destiny and national fortune, so that the harmony between heaven and man can suppress the demonic thoughts of the Undying Demon Lord hidden in the earth's origin."
"Now, your senior brother, Huangquan Daoren, has initially merged with Huangquan, and Hanba, the daughter of the current Heavenly Emperor Huangdi, has also initially grasped the power of the Nine Netherworlds. Although they have the advantage of the first move, neither of them is the candidate to refine the origin of the earth."
"Although you, carrying the power of humanity and the nation's destiny, have lost the possibility of refining the earth's origin to become the Earth Mother, you can still become the Taiyi, like the four emperors guarding the Heavenly Emperor, connecting the Earth Mother below and the Heavenly Emperor above!"
Su Ji and the Heavenly Court have created such a huge pie; their schemes are truly grand.
Qian Feng, who reverted to his original name Zhou Wu, became the Lord of the Underworld and would later become the Emperor of the Underworld, holding a position equal to that of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, Hanba.
Li Hui has worked hard and struggled for decades, creating a new era, and is the best candidate for the position of Taiyi.
"Taiyi?" Li Hui pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized.
Although there is no Mount Tai in the Baiyan Mountains, there are phrases like "the harmony between heaven and man" and "the harmony of yin and yang," which symbolize stability and grandeur.
"Thank you for your high expectations, Master. I will do my utmost to assist the Heavenly Court in cleansing the earth of its filth!"
Based on Li Hui's current cultivation progress, it will take him several decades to become a God-General level Strength God, and even becoming a God-Lord level Strength God or achieving physical sainthood is just a dream. He is particularly looking forward to the so-called "Taiyi" fruition.
Moreover, he had already regarded Zhang Xiaolian, the Lotus Dream Real Person, as his master's wife. Once the thirty-year period was up, the Moon Empress, the Taiyin Emperor, would certainly not let it go. After he became Taiyi, he could also assist his master and master's wife in dealing with the Moon Empress's conspiracies and schemes.
……
As the void dissipated, Li Hui returned to the banquet, and no one around him noticed anything unusual.
In the void, Mo Linglong and Fairy Zhenyi exchanged a glance and then came forward to pay their respects.
"Greetings, Master Lianmeng!"
"Greetings, Master Lianmeng!"
Zhang Xiaolian, struck by a sudden inspiration, smiled and looked at Su Ji:
“The Fairy Linglong has served Lord Su for many years, and the Fairy Zhenyi has shared life and death with Lord Su… Lord Su should also give these two fairies a proper title!”
Mo Linglong once joined forces with Su Ji to compete for treasures at a temple fair in Jinfeng County. Su Ji helped Mo Linglong regain her physical body, while Mo Linglong helped Su Ji refine the Deflection Magic Treasure to create the Bright Moon Wonderland and the Sun Wonderland...
Over the years, Mo Linglong has remained loyal to Su Ji. Although she seems to have gone from being a friend to a follower, her feelings for him were already evident long ago.
When Su Ji brought back her true form from the Milky Way Great World, Mo Linglong also recovered her physical vitality with the help of the Algae Immortal Lord, transforming from a twelve-year-old girl into a graceful silver-haired fairy.
As for Fairy Zhenyi, she first slept intermittently for thousands of years in the Golden Cave Sect, and was later awakened by Su Ji, who went to the Golden Cave Heaven to search for treasures, and was given a "Golden Wind and Jade Dew"...
First, Su Ji helped Fairy Zhenyi reclaim the Golden Cave orthodoxy from the evil immortal Zixiu. Then, Fairy Zhenyi fully supported Su Ji's construction of the Golden Toad Dojo on Taiyin Star with the Golden Cave Sect.
Not to mention, the demonic calamity that swept through the Golden Cave Heaven fourteen years ago would have been destroyed long ago if it weren't for Su Ji's Golden Toad body's persistence and the Golden Toad Great Sage's real body's efforts to turn the tide.
Mo Linglong and Fairy Zhenyi exchanged a glance, both feeling a little embarrassed at having their feelings exposed.
Compared to the shy Mo Linglong, Fairy Zhenyi quickly organized her thoughts and smiled:
“We all know that Lord Su is devoted to the Lotus Dream Immortal. Now that the time is ripe, we two who came later will dare to offer ourselves as his bedmates after you two have tied the knot first.”
Upon hearing this, Mo Linglong couldn't help but chuckle and scold, then glanced cautiously at Su Ji:
"What do you mean by offering yourself up? I'm already more than satisfied to be able to serve by Su Jun's side!"
She had the advantage of being in a good position, but she didn't take any action, waiting for this moment.
Zhang Xiaolian turned to look at the bewildered Su Ji, a smile playing on her lips:
"What does Mr. Su think?"
She had witnessed Su Ji's journey to where he was today and had long developed feelings for him... until Su Ji's true form arrived on Taiyin Star, finally dispelling the last trace of her concerns.
However, while Su Ji is decisive and efficient in important matters, he seems somewhat slow-witted and even insecure when it comes to personal feelings.
If she doesn't make it clear today, she can still wait, but she's afraid that Mo Linglong and Fairy Zhenyi won't be able to wait.
Immediately, all eyes fell on Su Ji, and even Zhu Nu's eyes held a hint of amusement.
"Hahaha!"
Zhang Gong suddenly laughed, feeling completely comfortable:
"At first, I only thought you were a golden toad reincarnated from a true immortal, and I treated you as a fellow Daoist... I thought the gap between us was widening, but I never expected that you would become my grandson-in-law!"
However, when the three women were discussing their life's most important matters, they did not take anyone else into consideration, not even the "protagonist" Su Ji.
"cough……"
After a moment of awkwardness, Su Ji gradually revealed a genuine smile.
He was born from a golden toad and had never considered personal feelings. Although he had felt some affection over the years, he was still a little afraid to face it.
Now that Zhang Xiaolian has taken the opportunity of her birth to reveal everything, he felt that the barrier in his heart had quietly broken, and he was plunged into a mysterious feeling.
"What's wrong with Su Jun?" Fairy Zhenyi's expression changed slightly.
"Could it be that Su Jun didn't mean that..." Mo Linglong has maintained the mentality of a teenager for over a hundred years, and she feels quite anxious and insecure.
"Don't overthink it—"
Zhang Xiaolian has embarked on the path to sainthood and has noticed some clues:
"Su Jun seems to be severing his old self, which coincides with the saying in the Great Galaxy World about severing the three corpses. Perhaps he can use this to step into a new realm!" (End of this chapter)
