Chapter 241: Fortune Comes
Yu Dayou and others never expected that they would become immortals less than a day after becoming disciples.
In the eyes of ordinary people, being an earthly immortal is the best, because no matter whether they are from a wealthy family or a duke or a noble, no matter if they have practiced for a hundred years or a thousand years, they can only achieve the level of an earthly immortal. No one has ever heard of anyone becoming a god.
However, Chen Jiu told them that cultivating to become an immortal is just the beginning of cultivating immortality!
They have already cultivated to become immortals, what else can they cultivate? Can they really cultivate to become gods?
Soon, they understood that cultivating to become an immortal was just the beginning of the practice.
It turns out that there are twelve Heavenly Ways, it turns out that fully comprehending one Heavenly Way can only be regarded as the first level of True God, it turns out that after each of them leaves the Immortal Palace, it is only the beginning of comprehending one Heavenly Way, it turns out that not everyone can only comprehend one Five Elements Heavenly Way, but everyone can comprehend all five Five Elements Heavenly Ways.
In other words, comprehending the five elements of heaven is the simplest, and there are also the ways of qi and blood, the ways of yin and yang, the ways of life and death, the ways of space, etc. Only those who have comprehended nine of the heavenly ways can be called True Lords, and True Lord Wuyun and his companions have all comprehended nine of the heavenly ways. Even above the True Lords there are Heavenly Lords who have comprehended ten or even eleven of the heavenly ways, and above the Heavenly Lords there are ancestors who have comprehended all twelve of the heavenly ways!
It turns out that in their eyes, being the highest-level immortal in the mortal world is really just the beginning of cultivation!
These were just what True Lord Wuyun and others casually told them during the meal. At first, they really didn't know what they needed to ask these True Lords, but after eating a few meals, they understood.
Because every day at mealtime, not only were they there, but also the fourth senior brother Yunxia Beast, the fox fairy ancestor, and even the wives of the masters were there, and their master was there occasionally as well. The topic that these people talked about the most was the Way of Heaven.
As they listened, they gradually understood what Heaven's Way is, how to comprehend Heaven's Way, and what Heaven's Way they should comprehend next after comprehending one of the Five Elements Heaven's Ways.
In the first few days, they were still listening with confusion on their faces, but later on, they gradually gained some insights and knew how to ask questions in their hearts. Master Wuyun and his men were really willing to tell them everything they knew and were very kind to them.
As for their master Chen Jiu, he was extremely kind to them.
Every morning at around noon, the master would give them a Five Elements Immortal Pill and take them into the immortal palaces and divine kingdoms of various systems to practice and comprehend. Every noon, the master would let them out, let them eat, and let them consult Master Wuyun and others. Every afternoon, the master would give them a Blood Soul Pill and take them into the demon power space to practice and comprehend the way of qi and blood.
At night, the master would let him out again and let them have dinner while consulting True Lord Wuyun and others. After dinner, the master would give them a Five Elements Pill and put them into the various immortal palaces and divine kingdoms to practice and gain insights.
This cycle repeated itself over and over again, and their progress was frighteningly fast. Not only were the Five Elements Immortal Palaces that they each cultivated expanding rapidly, they had even cultivated the seventh level of the Tiger Demon Divine Fist, and successively opened up demonic power spaces, achieving the realm of demon immortals.
They also gradually understood the value of the immortal pills and even the Blood Soul Pills. Their master was simply spending a huge amount of money. The six of them consumed a whole bottle of immortal pills a day. If these immortal pills were exchanged for gold essence and silver essence and then converted into gold and silver, they would be worth tens of thousands of taels, even hundreds of thousands of taels a day!
Even True Lord Wuyun and other True Lords from the God Realm were shocked when they saw this extravagant method of cultivation.
The amount of elixirs consumed by Chen Jiu's disciples in one day's practice is more than one bottle. The amount of elixirs consumed by them in ten days' practice is enough to exchange for a rare treasure!
To be honest, even the Heavenly Masters in the God Realm could not stand this method of training disciples at such a high cost. Take Jade Ding Heavenly Master for example. He was a Heavenly Master famous in the God Realm for his skill in refining pills and weapons. But even such a Heavenly Master could not guarantee to refine a bottle of elixir every day, let alone consume a bottle of elixir every day to train disciples.
At noon that day, they happened to talk about Jade Tripod Heavenly Venerable. Chen Jiu was there too. Chang Er Zhenjun couldn't help but laugh and said, "Master Jiu, we haven't visited Jade Tripod Heavenly Venerable for a long time. How about we go and see him today?"
Chen Jiu naturally nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, I just want to see what those guys are doing."
So, after eating and drinking, they set off.
This time they did not try to crack the divine kingdom of Qingyuan Zhenjun and others. Chen Jiu flashed directly to the sky above Dezhou City because he really wanted to see what those guys were doing.
So what are Yu Ding Tianzun and the others doing?
Chen Jiu's spiritual consciousness quickly passed through Jinan Prefecture, Hejian Prefecture and Shuntian Prefecture, and arrived in the capital almost in an instant.
As a result, he was stunned for a moment.
Because at this moment the outer city of the capital is full of elite garrison troops, and these elite garrison troops are still training desperately. He can even feel his strong iron-blooded aura from hundreds of miles away.
How many elite garrison troops are there?
He roughly counted and concluded that there were about 400,000 elite guards stationed in the outer city of the capital!
Is the imperial court planning to counterattack Southern Zhili?
His spiritual sense continued to sweep towards the inner city, and he was stunned again in an instant.
Because there are many houses in the inner city that are filled with elite garrison guards, and these elite garrison guards seem to have spiritual roots, and they are practicing methods to open their minds!
These are more than 100,000 elite Tunwei soldiers, and they are all elite Tunwei soldiers who have practiced the method of opening their orifices!
It seems that the imperial court really wants to counterattack Nanzhili. What will they do if the two Heavenly Lords and all the True Lords bring Jiajing and the Crown Prince Zhu Yijun with them?
In a flash, his spiritual consciousness arrived at the Wanshou Palace.
At this time, Jade Ding Tianzun was not refining the elixir, but was sitting cross-legged there regulating his breathing and practicing.
Jade Ding Tianzun felt the powerful divine consciousness coming, and he actually smiled mysteriously, then said calmly: "Set up the formation."
This time, this guy is not disgusted at all!
Seeing this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but be stunned again.
Jade Ding Tianzun was so happy that he couldn't help it. At the beginning, Daoxing Tianzun said that odd numbers were yang and even numbers were yin, and advised him to make elixirs only when the numbers were odd, and to meditate and practice when the numbers were even, so that his luck would change. However, he still didn't believe it.
I'm just trying it out these days. I only make pills when the numbers are odd, and I meditate and practice when the numbers are even.
As a result, he really succeeded in refining one furnace after another. It happened to be a double digit day and he was not refining pills, and that boring guy just happened to come!
As soon as that guy left, Jade Ding Tianzun couldn't help but admire him, "Brother Daoxing, you are really good at this. I didn't expect that after you tried the Yin and Yang numbers, my luck would really turn around."
Is there really a relationship between the number of yin and yang and destiny?
To be honest, Daoxing Tianzun didn't know either. The reason why he asked people to make elixirs only when the numbers were odd and to meditate and practice breathing when the numbers were even was because odd numbers were yang and even numbers were yin.
However, he did not know what the relationship between the yin and yang numbers and luck was. He just wanted Yu Ding Tianzun to use the yang energy to suppress bad luck and avoid being entangled by bad luck, so as to waste every furnace he refined.
As for good luck coming your way , that’s nonsense!
He was afraid that Jade Ding Tianzun would know that his disciple had filled the capital with bad luck, making them plagued by bad luck and unable to do anything smoothly.
If Jade Ding Tianzun knew that all this was because of his disciple, he would probably vent his anger on him.
That's why he made up nonsense, saying that the odd and even numbers of yin and yang are related to luck, and that he would make elixirs when the numbers are odd, and would meditate and practice breathing exercises when the numbers are even, so that his luck would change!
Could it be that their luck really has turned?
You have to try it to know.
Daoxing Tianzun frowned and pondered for a while, then summoned Jiajing again and said majestically: "Qinglei, have the families of the officials you exiled been called back?"
Why do you keep dwelling on this?
If I really call back the families of those criminals, take good care of them, and let them live a good life, wouldn't that be admitting that I was wrong in the past!
Can an emperor do such a thing?
Jiajing pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Master, those people are all spoiled and can't stand the bitter cold of the border. Most of them died of illness and there is no way to call them back. I will gather all the guards with spiritual roots in the houses of these criminal officials to practice. It should be able to eliminate their resentment, right?"
Humph, you said this, you will have to bear the consequences yourself!
Daoxing Tianzun snorted secretly, and then said solemnly: "Counting the days, our first batch of reinforcements will arrive soon. By then, we can send a few Zhenjun to protect you to recover Nanzhili. Otherwise, you can lead the army yourself?"
You asked me to lead the army in person!
What the hell is this heavenly truth that you made me realize?
I have comprehended the Fire and Wood Heavenly Daos, and I haven't comprehended the Earth Heavenly Dao yet. How can I save my life under the hands of those True Lords of Tongtian Sect?
Jiajing was stunned for a moment, then said carefully: "Master, why don't you send the crown prince? He has excellent aptitude and has already comprehended the way of space. He can avoid danger if he encounters it."
Are you using your grandson to take the blame again?
Okay, I just want to try to see if the bad luck in the capital has been eliminated. It doesn't matter whether you go or your grandson goes. Anyway, he is your grandson, not mine. I won't feel sad if he dies!
Daoxing Tianzun nodded slightly and said, "Okay, then ask him to prepare well."
That night, he went up to the observation deck alone again, staring at the starry sky intently and counting with his fingers.
Alas, the bright moon is still pressing down on the Emperor Star, and the Emperor Star is still dim. Have their luck really changed?
He carefully observed the atmosphere of the capital again, and found that the negative energy of the outer city and the resentment of the inner city were suppressed by the masculine energy of the garrison.
The problem is, if these elite garrison troops were to go out to retake Southern Zhili, then the mansions of the wealthy families in the outer city and the mansions of the officials who died unjustly in the inner city would be empty again!
What should I do?
He frowned and pondered for a while, then simply summoned Jiajing and asked majestically, "Do you know the theory of destiny?"
I know shit.
Jiajing was quite puzzled and said, "I don't know."
I wish you didn't know.
Daoxing Tianzun asked again: "How many elite garrison troops are you going to send to recapture Nanzhili this time?"
You finally care about the real thing.
Jiajing said without hesitation: "I heard that the rebel king Chen Jiu has gathered 500,000 rebels in Nanzhili, so I am going to send all the 500,000 elite garrison troops gathered in the capital."
You pig!
Upon hearing this, Daoxing Tianzun raised his hand and gave the guy a big slap in the face.
He thought about it, then sighed and said, "Alas, you don't know the concept of destiny, and you won't understand even if I tell you now.
In short, if you want to preserve the fortune of the Ming Dynasty, you must recruit as many garrison guards as possible to come to the capital for garrison and training. The number of garrison guards stationed in the capital must not be less than 500,000. Do you understand?"
I do not understand.
You only know that you are going to empty my family's wealth. Do you know how much food and wages it costs to recruit one million garrison guards in a month?
Alas, there is no way. If the Ming Dynasty is really over, it will not be as simple as emptying the family assets.
He had to quickly recruit these elite garrison troops. He couldn't joke with the fortune of the Ming Dynasty.
Jiajing said helplessly: "Disciple understands. Disciple will issue an order tomorrow to continue to recruit elite troops for the garrison."
