I built the Jade Capital with the Netherworld

Chapter 182 Endorsement of Immortal Notes
Ascension Platform, the gateway to the Immortal Palace, is as big as a fertile field. When the Nine Taoist Lords first stepped onto the platform, they all showed surprise. Looking around, they saw stars in the sky and fog blocking the gate of heaven. It turned out that the Nine-Layered Palace rose from Penglai, and the Twelve Jade Towers connected to Kunlun!

When you reach the edge, you will see white jade railings carved with dragons and fairies weaving mist as curtains.

The howling wind is as swift as a blade.

Looking down, under the vast sea of ​​clouds, the underworld stretching for thousands of miles is refreshing to see.

Duan Lan, the Grand Master of Taiyi, could not help but sigh with emotion:

"Only after seeing this Xuanxiao Danque do I realize that the world has no colors!"

Si Yebai, the God of Heaven's Works, responded, "Heaven's work has reached its limit, and creation has reached its end."

"That's right, that's right!"

All the Sijuns nodded, their faces flushed. When they thought that they would become one of the most powerful immortal officials in this building, even the calmness cultivated over hundreds of years became distracted at this moment.

In the past, they were known as one of the Nine Great Mysterious Sects, and were ultimately local princes. Now they have finally entered the mainstream and can look down on the world.

After a while, a beauty in the painting flew to the fairy platform, transformed into a lady, and invited all the officials to the Tianshi Mansion to discuss matters.

Everyone went there happily.

What they saw along the way made everyone more excited.

With their eyesight, they could clearly see the official residences of the nine officials, scattered in all directions. The area of ​​each official residence was far larger than the buildings of their sects. They were of different sizes and styles, and the atmosphere of immortals was clearly visible.

This shocked them all. As expected, he was the Yin Emperor from the Middle Earth who ruled the Xumi World. He was indeed extraordinary.

When they arrived at the Tianshi Mansion, Lu Wujiu was already standing at the door to greet everyone.

"Your humble servant pays homage to the Heavenly Master!"

Both sides bowed to each other and looked very happy.

After entering the Tianshi Mansion, after some greetings, they exchanged plans of each department.

The three officials and nine departments established by Emperor Yin can be said to complement each other and check and balance each other.

Take the Xuanbing Division for example. It is the largest violent agency in the Immortal Court. Large-scale mobilization requires orders from the Taiyi Division, personnel replenishment requires allocation from the Zhuxian Division, and military pay comes from the Duzhi Division.

If they restrain each other, it will be difficult for the family to grow big.

The same is true for the other nine departments.

Even the Taichang Division, which seems to have the least power, has the authority to discipline and examine the rituals and music of immortal officials. A serious charge of misconduct can be brought, which can be serious or minor.

Although the general scope of the Nine Departments' authority has been determined, the details have not yet been finalized. For their own interests, they will naturally examine each other's plans carefully.

After intense discussions, the rules of the Immortal Court were reluctantly decided.

After the Nine Departments had finalized their plans, Duzhi Si Yiwenyan immediately handed over a piece of talisman paper that looked like a talisman but wasn't:

"Master Lu, I have designed the Immortal Court Immortal Notes according to your instructions. Please review them! These notes are made of cloud silk and cold mulberry paper, supplemented by a magic seal to prevent counterfeiting. They are simple to make and will last a long time. However..."

Yi Wenyan paused and said:
"...It's just that civilian banknotes are backed by gold and silver. Immortal banknotes are only for cultivators, and using gold and silver as a guarantee is probably not realistic. After all, the Immortal Court is just newly established, and it's difficult to have such a large reserve. If someone with ulterior motives runs on it, its credibility will collapse, which may damage the image of the Immortal Court."

Yi Wenyan had already thought about this matter when he designed the immortal banknotes, and the more he thought about it, the more worried he became.

After all, if something goes wrong, he will be the first one to suffer!

Lu Wujiu seemed to have thought about this before he heard it. He waved his sleeves and shot out a few balls, which fell into the hands of the cultivators.

"Fellow Daoists, do you think that if this thing is used as a guarantee, the cultivators of the world will be convinced?"

Everyone took it and looked at it, some in surprise, some confused, and some bewildered.

"Innate Yuan Qi?"

"What does this mean, Master?"

"Xiantian Yuanqi is the foundation of cultivation. With this as a guarantee, cultivators will naturally be convinced. But the question is where does so much Xiantian Yuanqi come from?"

"Could it be that... the Heavenly Master can refine a large amount of Xiantian Yuanqi?"

The cultivators immediately deduced the truth from just a few words, but this truth was so absurd that they could hardly believe it.

Could it be that Lu Wujiu’s purpose in building the Immortal Court was to capture people to refine the innate Yuan Qi?
After a moment of intense contemplation, Lu Wujiu calmly said, "The Netherworld Samsara Path can draw innate energy from the Samsara Corridor. I wouldn't say it's inexhaustible, but it's enough to endorse immortal notes."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the Nine Dao Lords looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Master, are you serious?"

Lu Wujiu smiled and asked:
"Why don't you believe it? Are you worried that I'll kill someone to refine Xiantian Yuanqi?"

"I dare not. However, with such a large amount of innate primordial energy, I'm afraid that the cultivators in the world would find it difficult to believe such an explanation."

"With such a large quantity, if someone kills someone to refine it, it may be concealed for a while, but it cannot be concealed forever. All cultivators in the world should jointly supervise it."

Lu Wujiu said in a resounding voice.

When everyone heard this, they immediately believed it a little.

That’s right, killing people to obtain Qi is too brutal. Once it is made public, not only will the world be in an uproar, but even the nine major sects will not dare to get involved.

Just thinking about the fact that the Netherworld Reincarnation Path could absorb the innate vital energy from the Great Reincarnation Path made everyone's scalp tingle with shock. No wonder Lu Wujiu, who claimed to have reincarnated countless times, could ascend the stairs so quickly. So the root cause was here?

Now that they have entered the Immortal Court, won’t they be able to enjoy this kind of benefit from now on?
So are the fifth, sixth, or even seventh tiers still far away?

When all the cultivators were filled with longing, they heard Lu Wujiu say again:

"Speaking of killing people to cultivate Qi, I have something to inform everyone. From now on, human trafficking, brothel business, buying and selling corpses, slave labor... etc., are all written into the immortal rules and are considered serious crimes! Anyone found doing so will be punished according to the immortal rules!"

All the cultivators nodded in agreement upon hearing this:

"As an immortal sect, we should set an example for the world. Such evil and unorthodox behavior should be severely punished!"

Duzhi Si Junyi asked Yan suddenly looked at Hua Chaoge and said, "Master Lu, what about the Fangzhong Sect?"

Lu Wujiu said nothing and looked at Hua Chaoge.

Hua Chaoge said with a righteous look on his face:
"Now that you have entered the Immortal Court, you must set an example. From now on, any disciple of the Fangzhong Sect serving in the Immortal Court must not be involved in the brothel business. Anyone who violates this rule will be struck by five thunders on the same day!"

Yi Wenyan's face turned cold, and he suddenly realized something, and said quickly:
"Master Lu, isn't this an overreaction? The trafficking of human beings and corpses is a heresy that should be dealt with with swift and decisive force. However, the brothel business has existed since ancient times, and human nature favors it, so how can it be eradicated? Moreover, even though the Fangzhong Sect engages in the brothel business, who knows how many abandoned babies they support. If we cut off this business, I'm afraid it will only add countless resentful souls."

Upon hearing this, the cultivators looked back and forth between Yi Wenyan and Hua Chaoge.

I don't know what the two of you mean by one playing the good guy and the other playing the bad guy!
"Hui Zi's good analogy ultimately led to his downfall. The Fangzhong Clan's adoption of abandoned babies may seem like a virtuous act, but in reality, it encourages the abandonment of babies. Abandoning babies doesn't address the root cause, and is ultimately only a temporary solution."

"This……"

"Since Hua Chaoge has already supported it, why do you insist on being stubborn?"

Yiwen Yan was speechless.

There was a hint of anger in his eyes as he looked at Hua Chaoge. He knew very well that he had been deceived by Hua Chaoge.

The Fangzhong faction's shrinking of its power was not a self-protection measure, but Lu Wujiu's request!

Hua Chaoge concealed this fact and even misled him with a few words, so that the Danding Sect emptied its coffers and bought a bunch of hot potatoes.

For a moment, hatred reached its peak!

But now is obviously not the time to lose control, so I can only endure it.

This unintentional look fell on the eyes of the other people, and they seemed to be thinking about something in their hearts.

The interests of the Immortal Court are too great. It seems that even at the beginning, some people are already engaged in intrigue. After the matter of the Immortal Banknotes was finished, everyone started discussing other details.

Lu Wujiu emphasized, "Emperor Yin once said, 'When the world prospers, the cycle of reincarnation prospers; when the world perishes, the cycle of reincarnation perishes.' Currently, the Immortal Court is newly established, and many things are happening. If there are any mistakes, I understand. But no matter what, you must not bring disaster to the people of the world. Otherwise, don't blame me for stripping you of your official hats and sending you to the Immortal Execution Platform!"

The cultivators responded with a roar, "We, humble officials, will fulfill our duties conscientiously and benefit the world!"

Lu Wujiu nodded, and then raised new expectations and high demands to the Taiyi Division separately: "Fellow Daoist Duan, the Taiyi Division has an overview of all human affairs. Right now, there are so many things to deal with that it's hard for them to handle everything at once. I only ask for one thing: prioritize the establishment of the Thunder Division and ensure good weather in the Nine Paths. If there are any droughts or floods, don't blame me for being rude."

Duan Lan's face was solemn as he bowed and replied, "I will obey your orders."

After finalizing everything, everyone agreed to hold a regular meeting every month, and at the same time, hold face-to-face meetings from time to time. Then they adjourned the meeting.

Jiusi Daojun bowed and left.

However, they did not leave the Immortal Court. Instead, they rushed to their respective official residences, arranged the environment, and waited for the arrival of the first batch of subordinates.

Before Hua Chaoge even set foot in the Taichang Division, Yi Wenyan caught up with him, his face gloomy as he asked, "Fellow Daoist Hua, I brought you to see the Heavenly Master. Is this how you repay me?"

Hua Chaoge looked surprised: "What do you mean, fellow Daoist?"

"You're asking even though you already know the answer. Who said they wanted to shut down the Nine-Path Flower and Willow business?"

Hua Chaoge said openly:

"I did say that, is there a problem?"

Yi Wenyan's face turned green. He subconsciously pointed at the Tianshi Mansion, but suddenly he became worried and clasped his hands together: "Then what did Tianshi just say?"

Hua Chaoge said, "How can you and I control the actions of the Heavenly Master? Do you think that I and the Heavenly Master have teamed up to harm you?"

"you……"

Yi Wenyan took a deep breath, calmed his inner anger, and said sinisterly: "Fellow Daoist, please take care of yourself!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

Hua Chaoge smiled, subconsciously glanced in the direction of Tianshi Mansion, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Making enemies with the Danding Sect is the only way to protect yourself!

Having lost his brothel business, the Fangzhong Sect became extremely weak, and the Immortal Court became his biggest supporter.

Anyway, no matter which department the disciples of the Fangzhong Sect join, they will never join the Duzhi Department. After all, their magic can't get them immortal money, right?

Thinking of this, he turned and walked into the Taichangsi official residence.

He was thinking about how to maximize the power of the Taichang Division.

……

……

Morning fungi don't know Hui Shuo, worms don't know Spring and Autumn.

For the first time, the creatures in the Nine Paths felt the gaze of the morning fungus cicada. The world was changing so fast that they could not even imagine it.

Yesterday, the world was buzzing with rumors that Lu Wujiu, the head of the Liangyi Sect, wanted to establish an Immortal Court. Today, the Immortal Court is already hanging high in the sky, ruling over the nine paths.

All the major palaces and temples no longer had the heart to practice cultivation. The high-level monks were elusive and ran around everywhere to gather information, while the lower-level monks were eagerly waiting for news.

Yesterday, the Immortal Department recruited talented people;
Today, the Taiyi Division declared venereal and willow trade a serious crime;

In the evening, a letter of notification was delivered, and a month later, the tax was collected.

Looking around, the world is in chaos.

Some people are jealous, some people complain.

Amidst the bustle, the first wave of immortals have already taken office.

Among them was Ji Yunzi, a disciple of Ziyun Temple.

Coincidentally, the Immortal Promotion Division set up nine Immortal Promotion Pavilions in the Nine Paths to recruit talents.

One of them was built in Laolu Temple using the site of Laolu Temple.

Ziyun Temple is quite close to Laolu Temple, and Ji Yunzi has been active in Laolu Temple recently, so he just happened to catch the first wave.

I don't know if it was because the words "I am a close friend of Liu Qingtan, regardless of age difference" worked;
He still had forty years of Taoist practice, which just met the admission threshold of the Immortal Court. After identity verification and Taoist practice test, he was accepted into the Immortal Gate.

"...Next, I will lead you all to the Immortal Palace! Remember, the Immortal Palace is not the human world. Once you arrive at the Immortal Palace, no matter what you see, you must not make any noise. There are many nobles in the Immortal Palace, and even more important places for the immortals. If you walk around without permission and disturb the nobles, you will bear the consequences yourself!"

Under the instructions of the monk who recruited the virtuous, the same group of immortal officials bowed and promised that nothing would go wrong.
The monk Zhaoxian then sacrificed the Yin Talisman and injected his magic power into it. Yin energy rolled up and a corridor emerged.

Everyone felt nervous when they saw this.

An inopportune voice came from Ji Yunzi's side: "Is that the Immortal Talisman? But if it is an Immortal Talisman, why is there a dark aura emanating from it?"

This question frightened Ji Yunzi.

He quickly put his index finger to his lips and made a "Shh" sound!

A mocking voice could be heard from the side: "You're surprised by something you haven't seen before. The Immortal Court was founded by Lu Wujiu, the Heavenly Master. Lu Tianshi is a disciple of the Netherworld Samsara Dao. The Immortal Court even uses the Yin Scrolls of the Netherworld Samsara Dao as its Immortal Scrolls. If this isn't Yin Qi, what else could it be?"

The man was embarrassed and said nothing.

Monk Zhaoxian glanced at him and said nothing.

He has seen a lot of strange remarks in the past two days and is no longer surprised.

Under his urging, the cultivators hurriedly stepped into the corridor one after another. In an instant, the sky and the earth spun, and their vision was filled with endless flowing light.

When the scene stabilized, the figures of the crowd swayed and suddenly appeared on a huge jade platform.

With the introduction of the talented monk, everyone immediately guessed that this was the Ascension Platform.

It is also the gateway to the fairy palace!

For any immortal official in the Immortal Palace, this is the first stop when arriving at the Immortal Palace.

Looking around, I saw people appearing around from time to time. Judging from their clothes and accents, they should be people from the other eight sects.

"Nanyang Dao monk, follow me!"

The monk who was recruiting talents took a quick look and after confirming that everyone was present, he led them to the Immortal Promotion Division.

Everyone will complete the registration there and receive their identity.

Ji Yunzi, who was full of expectations, threw all his expectations out of the window after stepping out of the Ascension Platform and seeing the surrounding scenery.

There is only one sentence left in my mind:

"This is the Immortal Court!"

Even though he was over sixty years old and had rich experience, the scenery of the fairy palace still shocked his heart.

Especially when you walk to the covered bridge and look down, you will find yourself thousands of feet high in the sky, with strong winds howling around you and mountains like hills under your feet. The scene is so thrilling and awe-inspiring.

With my heart full of excitement, Zhuxiansi arrived.

Ji Yunzi didn't expect that he would meet an acquaintance shortly after arriving here.
