Chapter 610: Pardoning the Immortal Concubine
If possible, Jiang Lin also wants to form a cosmic wandering team, let the immortals in the sect explore the universe together, do business in various major universes, exchange resources, broaden their horizons, so as to temper their character and improve themselves.
The Star Gate is an activity promoted by the Heavenly Court, and the Luofu Sect also wants to get a piece of the pie, but the situation does not allow it! On the one hand, the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force is Mei Xianren, and the person in charge of the left army is Kong Guang. On the other hand, the Eight Desolate Universe is empty, and the Luofu Sect wants to occupy the territory.
"The Eight Desolate Universe is our foundation," Jiang Lin said solemnly, "We don't need to follow the trend, let alone ride on the popularity. Going to the universe is good, but don't forget that our roots are in the Eight Desolate Universe. They can leave, but we can't."
The deeper reasons cannot be revealed. You have to know that Luofu Sect has the inheritance of Tianyan Peak, and the means of deducing the secrets of heaven are extremely sophisticated. Even after becoming an immortal sect, they have perfected the skills of deducing the secrets of heaven through various methods.
Today, Tianyan Peak has many inheritances. Although no Taiyi gods or demons were born, a golden immortal appeared. He can directly see the gathering of luck and some of the secrets of heaven. The secrets of heaven show that Luofu Sect should not leave the Eight Desolate Universe.
Others will not believe such an excuse. After all, even Taiyi gods and demons cannot deduce the secrets of heaven. After all, this is the Eight Desolate Universe, and the Emperor is the Tao. No matter how you deduce, you cannot bypass the Emperor.
But Jiang Lin believed that, because when Chen Jingzhai left Yinmai, Tianyan Peak had the deduction results. It was also because of this result that Fu Yunzi attached great importance to Chen Jingzhai and listed Chen Jingzhai as a junior uncle in the sect.
Therefore, even though Jiang Lin became the Taiyi God and Demon, he still believed the words of the Golden Immortal of Tianyan Peak. It is better to be safe than sorry. He felt that it was not wrong to be cautious. Moreover, the popularity of Star Gate made Jiang Lin worried. He did not think it was a good thing.
Good things are bound to be accompanied by bad things. Even if there are no bad things now, the roots of disaster have already been planted. Jiang Lin thought about it again and again, and communicated with Kong Guang and Mei Xianren before finally making a decision.
Tian Feng was an insider. Like Jiang Lin, he was convinced by Tianyan Peak. So when he heard Jiang Lin's words, he smiled and said, "It's always right to follow the Emperor's footsteps. The Emperor is in the Eight Desolate Universe, and we are also in the Eight Desolate Universe."
"That's right," Wang Yao agreed. "After all, this is the Emperor's universe. We will definitely be safe here. It's just that it's hard to convince people without a reason. We have to give an excuse that will convince everyone, right?"
"I've thought about it," Jiang Lin said calmly, "All celestial immortals should apply to become star gods. There are still many incomplete star gods in the star systems of the Eight Desolate Universes. It's just right for celestial immortals to go there, and true immortals can stay in the sect or go to a branch sect."
"This is their arrangement. What's the reason?" Wang Yao asked.
"Whatever the sect needs," Jiang Lin smiled. "They have to do whatever the sect needs them to do. If anyone is not convinced, then we will eliminate them all. After all, our Luofu Sect is very young, so anything we do will be easily accepted by others."
"Good idea." Tian Feng's eyes lit up.
This method of self-pollution is not very clever but it is very effective. At least it can shut the mouths of the immortals in the sect. Although it is difficult to convince people with such a righteous attitude, it is the best method at the moment, and there is no better one than this.
Meeting the needs of the sect and serving the sect is the purpose of Luofu Sect. The immortals from all the major peaks must make safeguarding the interests of the sect their top priority. If the immortals refuse, they will be punished, and in serious cases they may even be killed.
In the 30,174th year of the Eight Desolations Calendar, hundreds of celestial beings from the Luofu Sect became star gods. They quickly completed the formalities and went to a planet in one of the major galaxies in the Eight Desolations Universe to take charge.
Being a Star God is very boring. In addition to daily practice, he also has to deal with various trivial matters. The most important thing is that he has to train Star God guards. The schedule is very tight and there is basically no opportunity to make merit. This is the least popular position of an dispatched immortal official.
No one knows why Luofu Sect suddenly made such an arrangement. In fact, other immortals don’t care about Luofu Sect. The sudden dissolution of Luofu Sect’s Universe Wandering Team has only become a topic of conversation, and no one is talking about it now.
The immortals of Luofu Sect were so angry that they vomited blood. Many of them were depressed and went to Luofu Sect to file a complaint or even raise questions. However, the responses they received were either to practice in seclusion for a certain number of years or to be punished by guarding a certain if for a certain number of years.
The immortals in the sect came to their senses and the smart ones immediately stopped their actions. However, the stubborn ones and those attracted by the interests of the universe jumped up and down, but they were taught a lesson and paid a heavy price.
Heaven, a ship on the lake.
"Jiang Lin is really a promising talent. The people from Luofu Sect back then have completely grown up." Chen Jingzhai said with a smile as he looked at the latest information.
"They are all geniuses. What they lacked before was luck and opportunity. Now they have everything, so they can naturally show their talents." The emperor and empress said calmly, "Luofu Sect is not the only sect that can resist leaving the Eight Desolate Universe. Why don't you praise others?"
“Hahaha,” Chen Jingzhai laughed. “Luofu Sect is your family. Don’t be too harsh on them. They did nothing wrong. The star gate you prepared was overheated. You didn’t consider the consequences. The universe is not an ordinary place.”
The latest data shows that four commercial warships of Heaven have been destroyed. The Space Wandering Team has actually suffered casualties, and even many immortals feel despair. The ways in which they fell or were destroyed are various.
There were unlucky guys who encountered foreign demons, and there was also the unlucky Skynet who was trapped in the space storm. The emperor and empress suppressed the news and did not let the news spread, otherwise it would be too embarrassing, especially since the Star Gate was established.
"Do you think I did something wrong?" The emperor and empress looked at each other gloomily.
"It doesn't matter whether you did it wrong or not," Chen Jingzhai shook his head. "The judgment of right and wrong is in our hands. If we say it's right, it's right, and if we say it's wrong, it's wrong. Besides, how could you do anything wrong? We just have different standpoints."
These words really touched the heart of the empress, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. The establishment of the Star Gate met the requirements of the Heavenly Court for everyone and also led the trend. The mistake might be the lack of experience, but the most important thing was the stance.
From the Emperor and Empress's perspective, everything is naturally fine. However, those forces that enter the star gate and form a space wandering team represent their own forces. It is no wonder that they do not properly assess safety and plan their routes.
The universe is not Chen Jingzhai's private property, and there will always be dangers. Fortunately, Star Gate has warned before, and anyone who participates in the universe wandering team has signed relevant agreements. In short, there has been no trouble.
Chen Jingzhai has rarely interfered in the affairs of the Emperor and Empress. Ever since he handed over power to Su Qinghuang, Chen Jingzhai has not been interested in the affairs of Heaven. He has focused all his attention on enlightenment during his weekends and has lived a carefree and happy life.
The Golden Immortal has no concept of time, which means that when he is in seclusion, thousands or tens of thousands of years may pass in the blink of an eye. This is very normal for the Golden Immortal, at least in the universe.
Chen Jingzhai made some changes to the Eight Desolate Universe. The continuous blowing of the wind of diversity also brought some changes. At least time has changed for the Eight Desolate Universe, so that it will not take hundreds of years for Chen Jingzhai to realize the truth in an instant.
"This situation will change soon. I will be in seclusion for a long time in the future," Chen Jingzhai said helplessly, "After I break through to Daluo, I should have made rapid progress, but firstly, I need to take care of the Eight Desolate Universe, secondly, for Mo Hen, and thirdly for you."
He has not had a long-term retreat since he broke through to the Daluo realm. This is not right. After all, the insights gained after the breakthrough are the freshest. But he is an emperor after all, and he has to make choices in many things, and it is still the same now.
On the one hand, the Eight Desolations Universe had just been promoted at that time, and the multiverse was not very stable, so he needed to use his innate energy to infuse it. On the other hand, he also needed to spend time with Immortal Venerable Mo Hen to help her recover. Finally, he couldn't bear to leave his women.
Now, everything has been arranged. As for the expeditionary force, the Heavenly Court now has Immortal Venerable Mo Hen, Immortal Venerable Qing Lian, and Immortal Venerable Qian Yu. There is no need to worry about the three Immortal Venerables. They can destroy their opponents without Chen Jingzhai taking any action.
"Just rest assured and retreat. I will take care of everything in Heaven." The Empress said, "How is the Evil Emperor doing? He should be waking up soon."
"He has already been promoted to a Daluo Immortal," Chen Jingzhai said with a smile, "He has mastered the power of devouring, and can increase his strength by devouring external demons. Now he has also given birth to his own unique bloodline. He is worthy of the title of the first demon in this universe."
Although he has not awakened yet, Chen Jingzhai has seen the future of the Extremely Evil Emperor. The Extremely Evil Emperor has a bright future, and the demon world will continue to improve, especially as the Extremely Evil Emperor breaks free from his shackles and is promoted to Daluo.
Although he only started from the lowest level of Daluo Immortal, as long as he took this step, the rest would be much easier. It was only a matter of time. This was also a good thing for the Heavenly Court. At least with the Emperor Ji Evil, there was a pioneer.
To be honest, the Emperor and Empress were actually prepared for Chen Jingzhai's retreat. She was the Emperor and Empress, as well as the Taiyi God and Demon, and she knew a lot about Daluo, whether it was what she heard from Immortal Master Mo Hen or what she knew.
She was not a pretentious person. In fact, after Chen Jingzhai went into seclusion, she had more free time. However, she did not want Chen Jingzhai to stay in seclusion like this. After chatting with Chen Jingzhai for a while, she took Chen Jingzhai's hand and went into the interior of the ship.
Fairy Yun Xi curled up in the quilt like a cat. She was finally arranged by the Emperor and Empress to become the Emperor's woman. Her future was still uncertain, but she had a sense of peace. She no longer wanted to be caught in the middle and feel uncomfortable.
Chen Jingzhai would not refuse any woman who was offered to him, but if Yun Xi wanted to become the eighth celestial concubine, she would need to pass the test and achieve a breakthrough to Taiyi in strength, otherwise she would always be a fairy concubine. That's right, Chen Jingzhai pardoned and conferred her the title of fairy concubine.
Since he has already planned to go into seclusion, he naturally cannot let Yun Xi follow him without any status. It is just right to pardon and confer the title of Immortal Concubine this time. When his seclusion is over, he hopes that Yun Xi will have become the Taiyi God and Demon, and then he can confer the title to Yun Xi.
After 30,300 years of the Eight Desolate Calendar, the Emperor announced that he would go into seclusion for a long time, leaving all matters to the Emperor, Empress and several Heavenly Concubines to decide. This seclusion did not bring any impact to the universe and the Heavenly Court, as everyone had become accustomed to the Emperor's occasional seclusion.
It was also in this year that the Heavenly Court began to rectify and standardize the Star Gate. It no longer allowed the Star Gate to send out wandering teams easily, but instead issued certificates. Once the certificates were obtained, the requirements were met and they could naturally leave the Eight Desolate Universe and wander within the universe.
Traveling merchants need to obtain a traveling merchant license and qualification certificate, explorers need to obtain an exploration certificate issued by the Heavenly Court, and the space wandering team is the most complicated, requiring permission to form a wandering team, rental qualifications, proof of assets, insurance policies, etc.
Although it is a bit complicated, with Skynet, everything can be operated on Skynet, whether it is assessment or examination, everything is very convenient. These are not a big deal for the immortals, so they promote it happily.
As the Star Gate came into being with rules, the Star Gate's enthusiasm was curbed at once. However, the immortals' enthusiasm for exploring the universe remained unabated. Instead, more and more immortals recognized the Star Gate's system and began to assess it.
The Luofu Sect has not participated in the Star Gate in recent years, but has worked hard to cultivate the Eight Desolate Universe. The celestial beings have basically gone to a planet in the native galaxy of the Eight Desolate Universe to become star gods, or to other affiliated universes to become the masters of their sects.
The continuous efforts over the years have also allowed the Luofu Sect to gain some foundation in the Eight Desolate Universe. Coupled with the cooperation with the Ministry of Commerce and the profits brought by the expeditionary force, the benefits obtained by the Luofu Sect are obvious, but outsiders are not aware of it.
As the Star Gate became standardized, the miserable experiences of some wandering teams were slowly revealed to the Emperor and Empress. After seeing this, the immortals of the Luofu Sect gradually resolved their misunderstandings about the sect, and instead sincerely admired the sect's foresight.
Only then did they wake up from their frenzy and feel relieved that Luofu Sect was taking a stable path. They had more recognition and trust in the sect, and many immortals even went to apologize to Jiang Lin and Tian Feng.
No one expected that the wandering team would fail. Everyone thought that exploring the universe was high-risk and high-reward. Unexpectedly, various accidents would occur not far from the Heavenly Palace and the Universe. This undoubtedly poured cold water on the fanatical crowd.
This basin of cold water came at the right time, otherwise the emperor and empress would not have regulated the Star Gate. The emperor and empress's actions also made the people who were originally suspicious gradually feel at ease. Although the enthusiasm dissipated, after they regained their rationality, they still couldn't help but join.
There was no way. Although some commercial warships had problems and ended up miserably, the first batch of space wandering teams returned to the Eight Desolate Universe for rest and recuperation, bringing too much benefit. As long as the commercial warships returned from the universe, there would be gains. These gains were so enviable that even the immortal sects could not help but increase their investment.
Under such circumstances, the immortals in the Eight Desolations Universe have become inward-looking to an incredible degree. It seems that they cannot improve themselves without inward-looking, and they cannot even join the universe wandering team. Many immortals have already exceeded their study hours, but they still study diligently, and even go to the Skynet battle platform to fight.
