Chapter 118: Enter the palace and face the saint
Sitting in the carriage that had been waiting outside, the King of Wealth Immortal dealt with his fawning and clichΓ©s along the way, and soon came to the court.
"Please follow me to the teleportation array. The eunuch flatteringly pointed to a teleportation array with a diameter of several tens of meters in front of him.
"The location in the city is really complicated, the seniors in the palace have already ordered, if the gentleman comes, you can take the teleportation array and arrive directly, Your Majesty and other adults will be waiting for you there. β
"Got it. The Wealth Immortal King glanced at him, "The exercises practiced by those of you who are physically deficient are a bit interesting. β
The eunuch smiled, and his back bowed more and more, what the King of Wealth Immortal was talking about was a technique practiced by the eunuchs of the Eastern Empire called "Xuanyin Disaster Breaking Secret Skill", which is said to have evolved from a part of a supreme divine skill.
And then through this exercise slightly simplified or changed, it was passed down according to the rank, although the eunuch's body was broken, but there were many people who reached the holy level, even the ancients.
"In the future, when it is dusk, absorbing a little twilight qi towards the setting sun will be good for your cultivation, so be it. β
The words of the Wealth Immortal King before he disappeared made the eunuch stunned, and then nodded, indicating that he had heard the adult's suggestion.
"It seems that the identity of this adult is not just the holder of the Heavenly Secret Sealing Order. An old man dressed in an all-black robe with a dark red python embroidered on it appeared from the side.
"Ancestor, why are you here? The eunuch knelt down directly, "Is there something wrong?"
"No, you're doing a good job, you can also give this twilight cultivation a try, we old guys actually have a little guess, but we haven't thought of absorbing this thing yet. β
The old man pondered: "We are not the kind of people who are born with the yin veins of the whole body or other creatures, and we need a little yang energy in our bodies, but we can't absorb it too strongly. β
"This gentleman is really interesting, absorbing the twilight qi can solve this problem very well, even a little stronger yang qi will be eliminated by the twilight qi. β
"It's funny, it's really interesting, we were still thinking about what kind of drugs we need to use to eliminate the effects, and it turned out that the problem was too complicated. β
The old man stroked his palms and laughed: "Xiao Dongzi, go and select a hundred young offspring, you will take them to carry out this experiment, and if you do it well, you will be rewarded with a five-grade brand to hang and play." β
The young eunuch's face was happy: "The little one obeys orders." β
"As for the matter of meeting this gentleman today, if you go back, talk less and more, otherwise the ancestor will not be able to protect you, you should know not to tell anyone. β
The old man patted half of the young eunuch's face with a smile: "Everyone has given you a way, why don't you go and find someone?"
"Yes!" the young eunuch turned around and ran, although the old man smiled and "stroked" his face, how could he not feel a faint killing intent full of threat.
The Eastern Empire's teleportation array technology was very good, and the Wealth Immortal King came to his destination without feeling any dizziness and saw the figure in front of him.
And so it was. He smiled and said.
"Yes, I see. β
Standing in front of him was the middle-aged man who had dealt with him several times.
Or rather, the emperor of the Eastern Empire!
"At that time, I saw that you were surrounded by dragon energy, and I thought that you were also an extremely noble person, but I didn't expect to see it today, it turned out to be nine dragons around, which was really noble and extraordinary. The Wealth Immortal King sat on the chair and looked at the middle-aged man.
"Tut-tut, sir, the two of us are each other, don't you also stand behind you a vast land, accompanied by all kinds of wonders and beauty. The middle-aged man shrugged his shoulders, very inconsistent with the identity of an emperor.
The two looked at each other again and laughed.
"I've seen Your Majesty. β
"I've seen His Holiness. β
The two of them pretended to salute "seriously", and the Wealth Immortal King raised his head in surprise: "Do you know the title of Venerable?"
When the middle-aged man said this word just now, it was not in the same language family as the language used before, and it was easy to recognize, and the Wealth Immortal King could hear what it meant by the charm of that syllable.
It's a bit of a chaotic word, the Wealth Immortal King thought to himself.
"Cut, if it weren't for those foolish sects that have been obstructing the development of education in our empire, this kind of writing could have been carried out. β
The middle-aged man scratched his head: "Let me introduce myself, my name is Yingshi, and the sects I just mentioned should now monopolize the faith and culture of most of the eastern continents." β
He counted with his fingers in front of the Wealth Immortal King: "Heavenly Secret Sect, Pantheon, Monotheistic Sect, etc., if it weren't for the emperor's strength to use their strength, he would have raised troops to break their sect a long time ago." β
"When did this belief change?" the Wealth Immortal King was stunned for a moment, "In the documents I read, there used to be only one Heavenly Secret Sect as the mainstream faith. β
In the mountains and rivers temple, most of the people in contact with the Wealth Immortal King are some children of the family or members of the cult, and I think that except for a few strange people, none of these people are in the mood to fight for the gods.
"Hehe, of course it's me. Yingshi pointed to his chest, "This was indeed the case before, but three generations ago, my grandfather discovered that the dominance of a sect was not in the interests of the empire, and it was a great hidden danger. β
He spread his hands: "So it's very simple, we found an opportunity to introduce or support many sects with the help of the policy of 'a hundred schools of thought contending' and 'a hundred flowers blooming', so that they can eat dogs." β
"The document you saw should have been information from a long time ago, and now even if these sects want to put the prince who hooked up with them to the throne, they even have their brains out. β
"Then which force is behind you?" the Wealth Immortal King stared into his eyes.
"Not a single one. Ying Shi looked at the Caixian King very calmly, "My generation is very special, I only jumped out to clean up the mess when those older brothers and sisters and younger brothers and sisters were about the same, and I ascended to the throne by relying on the royal family and the forces I co-opted." β
Lie to whom.
The Wealth Immortal King shook his head, the Heavenly Secret Sect has been able to stand for so many years, and the foundation will not be bad, and the other sects that can wrestle with him, although they are a little bit nurtured, will not be bad.
With "your own power", you have ascended to a huge throne, and you can't even deceive ghosts!
"Anyway, when I came to power, wouldn't those sects be very happy? Ying Shi took out a round instrument from his bosom and moved, and the Wealth Immortal King felt a wave of magic flowing, driving the entire room up.
"Attention, Mr. Ugly on the first day, we're about to go up two thousand meters. Yingshi stood up, his hands behind his back, and a smile on his face.
"I'll show you why those sects are comfortable giving me this seat. β
The Wealth Immortal King watched Yingshi open the gate, and a strong aroma of wine entered his nose, and then, as if he had seen a new worldβwas this really the Imperial City?
He turned his head to look at a courtyard in front of him that was entirely made of pink as the main tone, and it was full of all kinds of fruit trees, which the Wealth Immortal King casually glanced at and knew that these fruit trees were born with a self-purifying and self-cleaning effect, and they could be directly plucked and stuffed into their mouths.
It is all very effective spiritual fruits, and the Wealth Immortal King touched his chin, if it is replaced by his own purple fire dragon heart fruit tree, if it is placed in this, it is at most a little above the middle level in terms of level.
On the top of the branches, a thin thread with a faint sweet fragrance is hung, and at the other end of the thin thread is a large number of plates, which are filled with exquisite dishes.
Occasionally, a wind blew, and in addition to a part that was obscured by the leaves, some plates swayed and spilled some dishes, and some spirit beasts opened their mouths and sucked that part of the dishes into their stomachs, yawning with satisfaction, and glanced at the stranger of the Wealth Immortal King by the way.
And the smell of the wine he smelled was crystal clear and didn't look like a pool.
One by one, the stunning colors appeared and disappeared from time to time, and the air was filled with their coquettish laughter and slapsticks, and some of the bolder ones were already whispering to Yingshi.
"Well, I'm modeled after the small wine pond meat forest built by a faint lord in the past. β
Ying Shi looked at the Wealth Immortal King triumphantly, "The wine pool is a good wine that is paid tribute from all over the world, and there are various mana crystals at the bottom to adjust the temperature, and there is a magic circle on the top of the pool to control it to maintain the best taste." β
"The dishes come from the same source, and they're all excellent. β
Ying Shi raised his hand and laid out a layer of magic circles that hindered all kinds of exploration: "Introduce yourself again, sir, welcome to meet a faint monarch of the Eastern Empire!"
"A figure in the outside world, who is considered to be in the top three of the list of faint monarchs in the history of the Eastern Empire, is standing in front of you!"
"However, I think I am still a wise man. β
The Wealth Immortal King looked at him, and suddenly didn't know what to say, it could see that the courtyard in front of it was suspended in the air completely with the help of mana and formations.
A luxurious and fragrant pavilion in the sky!
"It's a miracle that the Eastern Empire didn't go to ruin. After a while, the King of Wealth Immortal spit out such a sentence.
"What an unlucky remark. Ying Shi shook his head, "There are so many talented and virtuous courtiers in the court, and there are even those sect spokesmen who can't be idle, why should I bother with that thought." β
"Only when the Eastern Empire becomes better will their sect prosper and shine the glory of their gods elsewhere. β
"Those aristocrats, on the other hand, are able to spend more luxury. β
Yingshi laughed twice "sneering": "That's it, they all have upward momentum, if the Eastern Empire is destroyed, it will open up a new situation, or it will become many small countries, and they may not be able to replan the differentiation of interests if they are busy to death." β
"Therefore, I, the emperor who does not have any reserve support, can sit back and relax and spend all my time drinking to be a faint king, or rather, I can only spend all my time drinking. β
A smile tugged at the corner of the Wealth Immortal King's mouth: "Just by your words, you are not a faint king." β
"In other words, my opponents are them, how many sects?"
"You agreed?" Yingshi's eyes lit up, "I knew that sir, you wouldn't abandon me when you came to the imperial capital, and sure enough, you didn't make a mistake with your friend." β
", I just want a reasonable identity, are you sure that no one will suddenly come out of nowhere to embarrass me?"
"No, you just experienced a big slaughter to eliminate the immortals, even if someone has malicious intentions towards you, they won't come to your trouble at this special time, and they will definitely be killed as a bird. β
"And this period of time is enough for you to hide, or accumulate power, sir. β
Yingshi hippie smile: "As for me, I will muddy the water in the open side, do things in the court every day, and try to make the water as muddy as a mud pond, so that we can act better." β
"Okay, the specific details, we'll discuss it later, what do I want?" the Wealth Immortal King waved his hand, signaling to reveal the topic.
"Because now that the mountains and rivers and temples have been killed by you and the temple, your title and official position are equivalent to disappearing, I have to say that it is much more convenient to arrange some things for you in this way. β
"Your new identity is the director of the 'secret door' under the direct jurisdiction of the Criminal Department Shangshu, and the Criminal Department Shangshu is our person, and his direct jurisdiction means that this department is running under my nose, so don't worry about the problem of information leakage. β
Ying Shi shrugged his shoulders: "This department usually doesn't need you to do anything, as long as you show your majesty when you take office, and your deputy will do it." β
"That deputy was personally arranged by Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and he can be regarded as a cronie, used to see others as 'Shangshu's restraint on the supervisor', and it is also an excellent cover for your identity. β
"This is the method practiced by the Criminal Department, which is similar to an auxiliary technique for tempering the spirit and the body, which can be accessed by an official of the Criminal Department of your level, I believe that with your wisdom and intelligence, Mr. β
Ying Shi handed a scroll of bamboo slips to the King of Wealth: "This is one of the few books that has been copied by several high-level masters, which is relatively easy for people to get started." β
"I heard Zhou Yuqi say that some of the magical exercises of your six departments, is there anything special about this criminal department?" The Wealth Immortal King took the bamboo slip and did not cultivate it first, but asked about Yingshi.
"Mainly, with your current official position, you can't get in touch with those more wonderful effects for the time being, so you save it, this volume of exercises is mainly for those who are from poor backgrounds to cultivate, and the effect is not bad. β
Ying Shi continued: "Some of the things in it cooperate with this 'working environment' of the Criminal Department, which is more conducive to their cultivation and improvement, and can even protect their minds and maintain their 'physical and mental health'. β
"That means you gave me a copy of the Elderly Body Cultivation Technique?"
That's pretty much what it means. Yingshi picked up a fruit from the side and took two bites.
The Wealth Immortal King raised his eyebrows, opened the bamboo slip and glanced at it casually, and he memorized the exercise route inside.
It didn't take long for a rust-colored air flow to wrap around his body from bottom to top, condensing into a hideous ghost mask on the face of the Wealth Immortal King, as if it was attached to his face.
Originally, there was a kind of "comfort" and "pleasure" that existed in this place, but when this rust-colored air surged, the whole area was filled with a sense of depression and despair, as if someone had put a weapon around the neck.
"It is recommended that you don't use this set of exercises to rob homes and houses, because among the six exercises, except for the highest level, they are already open secrets, and using this thing to find trouble is tantamount to telling people your origin. β
Yingshi said lazily: "Don't greet them like fools, say anything the opposite, divert their attention, if that time comes, the white will also be said to be black." β
"You can't be a three-year-old child in this seat, you have to teach this?" the Wealth Immortal King glanced at him coldly.
"I'm not afraid that you are a three-year-old, because even if it is a three-year-old, I can confidently train him to be an old fox, but I am afraid that you are a psychopath. β
Ying Shi smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that if you get angry, you will kill all the big families in my empire, if there is really such a problem, where do you let me find someone to manage the country?"
