Chapter 1044 Bipolar Magnetic
Wu Yang's coronation ceremony was a rare grand event in Huang Tiandao's ten years.

All the feudal lords and powerful figures under Huang Tiandao gathered from all corners of the world, even crossing mountains and rivers to attend the ceremony of Wu Yang's succession as the sect leader.

With greater power and territory, it becomes difficult to transmit messages and manage. However, this drawback does not occur within the Yellow Heaven Path. Zhang Chen is in charge of the Yellow Heaven Path, and he is the only true god within it. As long as Zhang Chen lives, no feudal lord in the world will dare to have any disloyalty. He can take lives and kill as he pleases.

The leader is the person closest to the Great Teacher of Virtue and the only person in Huangtiandao who can have contact with Zhang Chen. Within Huangtiandao, whoever can win the leader's favor can obtain the greatest benefits.

The succession ceremony of the leader of Huangtiandao was uneventful. Zhang Chen made an appearance and then casually used a lightning technique to smash a mountain. Everyone in Huangtiandao fell silent, and their awe of Zhang Chen increased once again.

After Wu Yang ascended to the position of leader, he directly ordered that each conscript be given a thousand taels of silver as compensation for their labor over the past ten years.

Millions of people, each receiving a thousand taels of silver, billions of taels of silver were scattered out like water.

As for where Huang Tiandao got his money?
Of course, it was obtained from the territories of various feudal lords!
As for the fact that the various feudal lords refused to give it to them?
With such a wise and virtuous teacher around, try and fight against one!
This move was not only to collect money from various warlords, but also to test them. If any unscrupulous person dared to refuse their share of the money, Wu Yang would use Zhang Chen's power to teach them a lesson.

Some feudal lords directly pledged allegiance to Wu Yang and expressed their loyalty, which naturally reduced their "gift money" and allowed them to be successfully won over by Wu Yang, becoming his confidants.

Zhang Chen observed Wu Yang's actions but did not point them out, allowing Wu Yang to proceed. Now that his underground palace was complete, Huang Tiandao had become a dispensable pawn to him, and he wouldn't care even if it were destroyed.

On this day, Zhang Chen summoned Wu Yang, who came down from the foot of the mountain and bowed respectfully to Zhang Chen: "What are your orders?"

Looking at Wu Yang, who was beaming with confidence and full of vigor, Zhang Chen said, "I intend to go to the underground palace to make final arrangements. You should secretly arrange for some experts to guard the entrance to the underground palace and not allow anyone to approach. I will probably come out in five years. At that time, I will leave Huangtiandao for the Northern Lands and will never return to Huangtiandao. So if you have any enemies or opponents in Huangtiandao that you cannot defeat, try your best to settle them within these five years. If you really cannot settle them, I will take care of things for you after I come out in five years. Whether you can completely turn Huangtiandao into your Wu family's territory and make it your Wu family's power depends on your methods within these five years."

Upon hearing this, Wu Yang was shocked and immediately knelt down: "Ancestor, why do you want to abandon Qingcheng Mountain and return to the North? Is it because I did something wrong that offended you? As long as you point it out, I will definitely correct it."

Upon hearing Wu Yang's words, Zhang Chen shook his head: "The North is my home. I'm just going home."

"I am willing to lead Huang Tiandao's forces to the North and become a subordinate force of the North!" Wu Yang put forward his opinion without hesitation.

Zhang Chen looked at Wu Yang with surprise upon hearing this, then shook his head: "Whatever you say."

After speaking, Zhang Chen vanished in a flash, disappearing into the soil without a trace.

Looking at the spot where Zhang Chen disappeared, Wu Yang's eyes revealed a resolute look: "This world is too big. Without the deterrence of the Great Teacher of Virtue, how can Huang Tiandao truly command the world? At that time, I'm afraid all the major forces will secretly harbor ulterior motives. If I want to secure this position, I must cling to the Great Teacher of Virtue's coattails."

"Furthermore, my leading the entire Huangtiandao to submit to the North is also a test of the Huangtiandao's internal situation. If anyone dares to oppose my decision, it must be because they are not convinced of my loyalty. I will then ask the Great Sage Teacher for help, which will be for the sake of the North and for the sake of the Great Sage Teacher." Wu Yang's eyes were full of shrewdness.
"I want to see who dares to oppose my proposal. This is a good opportunity to carry out a major purge."

Zhang Chen ignored the outside world and went straight into the underground palace. He began to use his earth element authority to construct mechanisms, including various strange objects such as mercury and insect eggs.

Zhang Chen even considered the issue of the passage of time, noting that many mechanical spring mechanisms would decay and become ineffective over time, and thus he made improvements to them.

In the Golden Age, Zhang Chen could have meticulously crafted all the mechanisms of a mere twenty-mile-long underground palace in just one day. However, in this world of declining Dharma, he could only move a meter of earth and stone at a time, making the transformation extremely difficult. It took him five and a half years to complete the entire transformation. Then, he carefully arranged layers upon layers of mechanisms and puppets on the altar in the center of the palace before placing his lodestone into the very core of the feng shui array.

As the lodestone fell onto the altar of the feng shui array, a strange magnetic force flowed, causing the lodestone to float and hover in the void. At this moment, an invisible magnetic force began to spread, expanding in all directions, engulfing the entire Qingcheng Mountain in an instant, and then spreading along the dragon veins of Qingcheng Mountain to all corners of the world. An invisible force connected the two poles of heaven and earth, condensing and linking them to the dragon veins of Qingcheng Mountain, and then to the primordial magnet that Zhang Chen had refined.

An invisible energy surged forth from heaven and earth, its power vast and boundless. Faced with this immense power, Zhang Chen felt an overwhelming sense of insignificance.

"Indeed, it is the mighty power of heaven and earth, a power constructed from the fundamental laws of heaven and earth. Once mobilized, it possesses power comparable to that of a Great Luo Golden Immortal." Zhang Chen felt an invisible energy pouring into his soul clone stored in the magnet. That power was vast and majestic. Zhang Chen's soul was like a fish facing an endless sea. That boundless power wanted to destroy Zhang Chen's soul and turn it into nothingness.

At the same time, a tremendous force erupted from the magnet, actually throwing Zhang Chen away. The magnetic force enveloped the entire altar, covering the entire platform and preventing Zhang Chen from moving forward even an inch.

Zhang Chen felt the immense power trying to invade his primordial spirit clone within the magnet. His main body hurriedly stood up, trying to rush out, but was blocked by that invisible barrier.

"Such powerful strength! But the magnetic force of heaven and earth also belongs to the power of the earth, falling within the scope of my earth element authority." Zhang Chen stood before the earth element authority, which was as solid as an impenetrable wall, his eyes filled with composure:

"Use the Earth element authority!"

As Zhang Chen mobilized his Earth Element Authority, the Elemental Magnetic Barrier was suddenly torn open. He then used the Elemental Magnetic Power to lift himself onto the altar. He then quickly arrived in front of the Earth Elemental Magnetic Power, feeling the Elemental Magnetic Power that was constantly invading the heart of the earth. He immediately used his Earth Element Authority to continuously suppress the Earth Elemental Magnetic Power that was separating the void.

Fortunately, with the Earth Element Authority, and with its absolute power, Zhang Chen forcibly suppressed the primordial magnetic force between heaven and earth. However, Zhang Chen was now in a dilemma. If he stopped using his Earth Element Authority, the primordial magnetic force between heaven and earth would be replenished, and his clone would still be unable to withstand the power of the primordial magnetic force.

"What should we do? When the Queen Mother of the West deduced the feng shui formation, she didn't mention anything like this to me. Could it be that the Queen Mother of the West is plotting against me?" Zhang Chen's eyes turned gloomy. The next moment, his consciousness quickly descended to the Middle Thousand World, manifested in front of the Queen Mother of the West, explained his situation, and asked the Queen Mother of the West for a solution.

Xi Wangmu was dumbfounded after hearing Zhang Chen's words, and then scratched her head: "I forgot that your primordial spirit is just an ordinary primordial spirit, not the true spirit of an innate being. If you can reach the realm of the Great Luo Golden Immortal, your soul will transform into a true spirit, and you will naturally be able to resist the erosion of that primordial magnetic force of heaven and earth, and even be able to use that primordial magnetic force of heaven and earth for your own use."

"I'm asking for a solution now," Zhang Chen urged Xi Wangmu impatiently. He suspected that Xi Wangmu was trying to trick him, but he had no evidence.

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother of the West's eyes darted around: "Didn't you refine the Corpse Ancestor? The Corpse Ancestor was born with the ability to control the power of the earth. You can place the Corpse Ancestor on the altar and let it bear the impact of the magnetic field of heaven and earth."

“Given the situation outside, once the Corpse Ancestor goes out, he will be reduced to his original form and turned into an ordinary corpse. Don’t give me any bad advice.” Zhang Chen felt that the Queen Mother of the West was trying to fool him.

"Boy, don't forget, that Corpse Ancestor was a Primordial Golden Immortal. Do you know what Primordial is? Primordial is chaos! A Primordial Golden Immortal can absorb all power and make it his own. Especially since the Corpse Ancestor was born from the essence of the earth, that primordial magnetic power is a great tonic for him. You're being too petty and judging others by your own standards. How could I possibly harm you?" The Queen Mother of the West's voice was filled with dissatisfaction: "Your true self is inside the Tongtian Jianmu tree, and the entire world is entrusted to your consciousness. If you die, the entire world will fall apart. If I harm you, I'm harming myself. How could I possibly harm you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chen felt that what the Queen Mother of the West said made sense. At this point, he could only try what the Queen Mother of the West had said and had no other means to use. Then, his consciousness returned, and divine power flowed around his body. The next moment, the Corpse Ancestor was directly summoned into the Great Thousand World.

"Boy, what are you trying to do..." The Corpse Ancestor was summoned by Zhang Chen and was about to spit out words when he felt the bipolar magnetic force pouring in from the world. His eyes lit up and his words stopped abruptly.

"What a wonderful place! What a wonderful place! It's simply a land of creation!" The Corpse Ancestor kept praising it, while his body was filled with primordial energy, devouring the vast and mighty magnetic power of heaven and earth that was pouring in.

It is important to understand that the end of the Dharma in the Great Thousand World does not mean that the Great Thousand World is weak. The Great Thousand World absorbs the primordial energy of the entire world, so how could it be weak? The Great Thousand World is terrifyingly strong, and the primordial magnetic force between heaven and earth is also terrifyingly strong.

But the Corpse Ancestor was a Primordial Golden Immortal, and he was not afraid of the power of heaven and earth being strong, but he was afraid of not having the power of heaven and earth.
