Chapter 751 Jiang He's Legitimate Hobbies

boom!
Suddenly, a streak of light burst through the air.

Among the vast crowd, countless people stared in disbelief. Some cultivators at the upper five realms were unable to contain themselves. Wen Xuanming and Mu Changsheng, who had walked up the mountain path, both had incredulous expressions on their faces.

The beam of light struck Jiang He; its shape resembled a large, jet-black halberd.

Yan Ling Daoist smiled slightly and congratulated him, saying, "Congratulations, Junior Brother, on gaining the favor of Heaven and Earth. In less than a hundred years, I'm afraid I'll have to address you as my Uncle-Master. This is a newly attained rank, and it seems to be [Martial Arts]."

Once someone in the Jade Purity Realm gains a position of authority, they are almost certain to attain enlightenment within a hundred years, provided they do not perish.

As for the [Martial Arts] Rank, it was not originally among the Thirty-Six Heavenly Spirits and Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends, but in the last six months, the Rank has been repeatedly stripped away, or rather stolen. The 108 Ranks are the basic logic of the world, and the Nine Provinces world is also working hard to complete them.

Jiang He nodded and said, "It has good taste."

Yan Ling: "..."

Shouldn't you be a little humble?

Wow!
A golden and silver road stretched down from the sea of ​​clouds. The girl carried a huge vermilion wine gourd on her back. Her close-fitting Taoist robe was embroidered with the sun and the moon. She was pretty, but not stunningly beautiful. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and she was still a little drunk.

“I, Lu, want this disciple.”

Meanwhile, within the Great Dao Sect, the three peak masters and elders could only bow in respect. The Great Dao Lord who mended the heavens and sun, whose real name was Lu Mingyan, courtesy name Zhirou, and also known as the Heavenly Dao Lord, was usually a man of his word, and once he made a decision, there was no room for his disciples to object.

The golden and silver avenue stretched to Jiang He's feet. Yan Ling Daoist watched with envy as Jiang He stepped onto it. The sect leader's personal disciples were few and far between, and their status was extremely high.

Amidst the sea of ​​clouds, Lu Mingyan hiccuped and said, "From now on, your Daoist name will be Jiu Zhu. I don't care about your past life background. If we return to the Fourteenth Day of the First Year of the Second Year one day, we will address each other as fellow Daoists, without the formalities of master and disciple."

Lu Mingzhi's eyes flickered, her expression hazy with intoxication.

Jiang He did not refute the claim that powerful beings are reincarnated.

The two landed on the summit of the Great Dao in the sea of ​​clouds. Lu Mingyan left behind a palm-sized green gourd containing rich moonlight, which could be used to unleash a Dao-proving strike. Moreover, Lu Mingyan could also arrive in time if danger was encountered.

"Choose any palace at will. First, stabilize your cultivation level. After you come out of seclusion, get to know your senior brothers and sisters. With the green gourd in hand, you are qualified to choose ten of the many Taoist techniques from the Scripture Mountain. I have other matters to attend to. You can make your own arrangements."

The so-called "something to do" was nothing more than indulging in a hangover.

Lu Mingyan's figure transformed into moonlight and disappeared. Jiang He found a six-story pavilion on the mountaintop to serve as her cave dwelling and training ground.

"The emerald gourd is not primarily for defending against external enemies; its main purpose is to track their movements. This master seems to have ulterior motives."

On the verdant gourd, the crafting technique focuses far more on "locking" than on the storage of power, putting the cart before the horse. It not only supports the arrival of the gourd but also conceals effects such as imprisonment, dizziness, and binding.

Jiang He sat cross-legged, with Pei Qinghan following behind her, completely unnoticed. Just now, she and the sect leader were very close, face to face, and she could easily have revealed a flaw if she wasn't careful.

"Young Master, I'll go prepare the meal."

"The sign at the entrance has been changed to 'Zhu Lou Wine House'."

"clear."

Jiang He closed her eyes and began to process what she had learned.

The current Gluttony Paradise consists of places like Zhulu Nanliang, Vigoride Plain, Wanhua Paradise, Canyang Paradise, and Xihuang Prefecture. Even if the first few were added together and multiplied tenfold, they still wouldn't be as good as Xihuang Prefecture.

Although Xihuang Prefecture is not as large and rich as Zhongzhou Prefecture, it is one of the nine proper prefectures, large enough to accommodate dozens of small and medium-sized dynasties.

Within the Blessed Land of Gluttony, the land and sea are in turmoil.

The celestial realm remained unchanged, and the various landmasses were seamlessly joined together to form the new Gluttonous Continent, ruled by the Great Jing Dynasty.

Jiang He took out the outer shell of the Blessed Land of Myriad Flowers and then devoured and refined it. There was still a small amount of the extraordinary factor that the Black Sun Domain had previously covered Xihuang Prefecture, so he simply poured it all into the energy pool.

[Name: Gluttony Super Paradise]
[Era: The Golden Age]
[Energy: 1200 Legendary Units]
[Number of beings: 50 billion (over 4% are mortals, estimated to require 70 generations to transform into naturally golden beings)]
Jiang He's consciousness enveloped every inch of the Gluttony Blessed Land. Black light cleansed the earth, and all the evil soldiers except for the three generals were returned to the furnace. Energy surged out from the energy pool.

"The blessed land now resembles a super-large alchemy workshop."

Jiang He slit his wrist, letting the golden blood flow freely. His blood contained dragon-attribute extraordinary factors, and the damage could be repaired simply by using the Time Ring.

In the celestial realm, a vast sea of ​​clouds stretches out.

The first Evil Dragon Sword Guardian has been chosen.

With an epic-level artifact body, half-dragon blood, an epic-level demon sword, and a full set of construct armor, he possesses the comprehensive combat power of an ordinary creature from the heroic era.

"Dragon-human sword cultivator." Jiang He continued refining.

For an entire day, the legendary energy of 200 units within the Blessed Land of Gluttony was consumed by the Fiend Legions. There were ten legions in total, each with 100,000 men, totaling one million Fiend Dragon Sword Guards. The combined efforts of the Gluttony Sin and the Alchemy Masters showcased their exceptional efficiency and skill. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The evil legion descended from the heavens to the mortal realm.

Jiang He's task was to have each legion build a large army of servants, teach them swordsmanship and relatively low-level dragon blood. The other rules were the same as before: creatures could ascend to the Heroic Age, but their fate was naturally to become materials.

"To some extent, dragon blood is polluting. There are countless legends of people becoming stronger by bathing in dragon blood, but behind them is an extremely high mortality rate. However, the evil legion and its servant army all cultivate the dragon-human sword cultivation system, and the creatures of the blessed land can only follow the trend."

Jiang He silently deduced that the creatures of the blessed land could actually follow other systems, or even create their own. But if that were the case, then don't blame the evil legion for coming to visit. A high mortality rate wouldn't be a big problem, as the time flow rate is one to ten years, and the number of living beings would be endless.

"In this way, it's only a matter of time before Pei Qinghan gains popularity."

Jiang He gradually built up the blessed land. He first commanded the evil demon legion to clean up the history of the original Xihuang Prefecture, "burning scriptures and burying monks alive". Then, according to the standards of the former Southern Liang Dynasty, he standardized weights and measures and writing. Some monks from the Middle Five Realms who had luckily escaped the last great calamity encountered the most severe pursuit.

"I made some mistakes back then. Objectively speaking, I did have some difficulty distinguishing the strength difference between the fifth and sixth realms."

Thirty days passed in the outside world, while three hundred years passed in the blessed land.

This vastly different flow of time is ineffective against animal companions; in the realm of mystery, the hunter and his animal partner symbolize a complete individual.

The number of dragon-human sword cultivators has increased significantly.

The evil branch legions returned to the Celestial Realm one after another, contributing their spoils.

Including the gains before the Gluttony Continent was merged, the number of medium-sized soul crystals reached an astonishing forty.

"Indeed, this blessed land is a breeding farm with continuous profits."

"But to produce large soul crystals of the corresponding mythical level, it would probably be necessary to upgrade the blessed land to a small world."

Jiang He swallowed all the soul crystals.

[Hint: Your Alchemy Master level has been increased to LV44]
Grandmaster LV44, a status equivalent to an ordinary Legendary who specializes in a certain path, instantly sparked countless ideas and inspirations in Jiang He's mind. Some difficult knowledge problems on the Mythical Ice Sea Ancient Scroll were easily solved.

"Consuming soul crystals mainly tests the resilience of one's soul. Even if a foreign soul is pure, it may cause the collapse of one's own soul. With an eternal soul, I have a great advantage."

After swallowing forty at once, Jiang He only felt a little dizzy and lightheaded. It was the first time he had digested such a large quantity, and it also made him realize the price of the soul crystals.

One harvest is complete.

The Great Jing Dynasty on the Gluttonous Continent entered a new era—the first year of the Great Jing Dynasty.

The only thing Jiang He didn't expect was that, because of the merger of the Vigrid Plains, the beings who had signed the devil's contract intermarried with other beings, causing the contract to spread almost throughout the entire blessed land. This terrifying contagiousness truly lived up to the name of the devil.

"Let him rest a little longer. Once Pei Qinghan's needs for advancing to level fifteen are met, we will hold the second Dark Sacrifice."

Compared to the gradual accumulation of benefits, the Dark Sacrifice is the main source of income. However, it is undeniable that randomly wiping out half of the living beings is extremely cruel. Nevertheless, Jiang He also discovered that a considerable number of living beings actually have a strong expectation for it.

The Dark Sacrifice does not consider cultivation level, bloodline, or social status. Because he has no patience for selection, it is completely random. After the last Great Sacrifice, the nobles and strongmen underwent a major reshuffle, and a large number of commoners were given opportunities. The Vigrid Plains experienced a rare period of prosperity and vitality.

Today, the commoners who once had a chance have become new nobles and powerful figures, and prosperity has gradually declined.

"The principle of Yin and Yang reincarnation."

"All things are in flux and changing."

Jiang He was inexplicably lost in thought. For cultivators of the Nine Provinces, the greatest benefit of having complete control over a blessed land lies in "observing the Dao" and observing the laws governing the world's operation.

[Hint: Your power has been slightly increased]
[Note: Your spatial authority has been slightly increased]
[Hint: Your gluttony authority has been slightly increased]
Although you didn't get promoted in rank, the improvement is real.

"A power is a window through which a legend observes the world, and also a manifestation of the laws of nature. However, when one often stands from the perspective of the world, the distance between oneself and life and death, morality, relationships, etc., will undoubtedly affect one's spirit. Therefore, power can erode a legend."

Jiang He's gaze grew even colder.

He had not held power for long, but the erosion of power had already shown signs. The solution for the legendary figure was to fall asleep, not to look or think about it, which would naturally reduce the impact.

As for the Legend of Kyushu, it involves building a grotto-heaven to protect oneself, much like covering a window with a veil.

“I see.” Jiang He understood somewhat. “When I descended to the Nine Provinces World, I had an instinctive preference for the Immortal Pig Body. Emotional stimulation and desire could counteract the indifference caused by authority, which made me make a choice in my subconscious.”

That makes sense. Sometimes he even suspects that he has become lustful due to Lilith's influence, and that his obsession with Pei Yishi seems to have occurred during the period when his powers were being born.
Jiang He's gaze softened a little. It seemed that his pursuit of the Immortal Pig Body, like drinking alcohol, was a legitimate and necessary personal hobby.

"Pei Qinghan, come here for a moment."

"coming."

Pei Qinghan, who looked like a young girl, came over carrying dishes. She was thin now, but had a firmness that was relatively lacking in her prime.
