Chapter 890: Eight Hundred Years of Yanyun

hum...

Every time an invisible wave passed by, the true transmission token on Chu Mu's waist would glow with light.

Under the monitoring of this kind of intelligent program, the existence of permission is the only proof.

Without this certificate, you will immediately be identified as an illegal intruder.

Even if you are outside the city, you will be instantly targeted. Even if you flee, your identity will be identified. In the Yanyun Mountains, you will be unable to move.

Of course, no matter how perfect a system is, it is impossible for it to be flawless.

This is also the fundamental reason why the leader of the Changsheng Sect would rather paralyze this system than let it operate intelligently and kill demons.

If there is no reliable person sitting in Yanyun and controlling the highest authority, although the entire system will still operate intelligently as it does now, inanimate objects are still inanimate objects after all. They operate according to fixed logic, and there is a possibility that the rules will be discovered, tampered with, invaded, and taken over.

But he is in charge here, and the entire system is under his control. With his level of skills in the immortal way, it is basically impossible for anyone to tamper with or invade under his nose unless the sacred beast of Tianyan comes in person.

Chu Mu was still quite confident in his own immortal skills.

Formations, puppets, weapon refining, alchemy...

Although there are only these few categories, as long as he is given enough resources, it would be easy for him to build such an intelligent system by himself.

stomping on...

Accompanied by the sound of orderly footsteps, the tightly closed north gate of Jizhou City slowly opened.

Immediately afterwards, a team of humanoid puppets wearing silver armor and silver helmets came out of the city gate in an orderly manner and lined up on both sides of the city gate. There were also several third-level puppets with obviously sturdy bodies standing in front of the formation.

"Welcome to the Supreme!"

The mechanical shouts were devoid of any emotion, and the puppets half-knelt on the ground, looking respectful and welcoming.

The corner of Chu Mu's mouth twitched slightly. Such a big sect was really grand. Even the puppets had such grand etiquette built into them.

"No need to be polite. You don't need to follow me. Just do your job."

Chu Mu spoke slowly.

"I will follow the order of the Supreme Being."

The puppets responded, still with a mechanical and cold voice without any emotion. As soon as the words fell, the puppets stood up almost at the same time, and neat footsteps sounded. They followed Chu Mu's orders and went to their respective posts.

Entering from the city gate, what comes into view is not the straight long street that runs through the entire city like an ordinary city, but an arc-shaped compass layout.

The root of this problem, of course, lies in this city defense formation. The Bagua layout forms the internal structure of the city.

Although it was only less than a day, the blood in the city had long been cleaned up, and there was no one to be seen on the tidy streets, except for teams of puppets patrolling according to fixed logic from time to time.

The entire city was filled with a scene of silence with no living creatures on earth.

Chu Mu stopped at the city gate, and after taking a quick look, his mind was drawn to the city protection formation. The mystery of the Eight Trigrams burst out, and a forbidden force descended from the sky, enveloping him.

In a flash, it disappeared at the north gate.

When he appeared again, he was already standing in front of the gate of the garrison in the center of the city.

The mystery of the Eight Trigrams can also evolve into the mystery of short-term fixed transmission.

This means that as long as one controls this city defense formation, any place in the huge Jizhou City can be reached in a flash.

The garrison was also empty, but the defenses in the garrison were obviously much tighter than those in the city.

The defense is arranged in a chain reaction. Even without this city-protecting formation, it would be difficult for ordinary Yuanying masters to break in.

However, these strict arrangements were of no use at all when faced with the demonic catastrophe due to the paralysis of authority.

According to surveillance footage, when the demonic catastrophe broke out, this garrison was completely destroyed almost immediately.

None of the remaining Changsheng Sect disciples guarding the mansion were spared and all died.

However, the demons did not stay in the garrison for too long. After realizing that they could not break through the defense system in a short period of time, they hurriedly withdrew from the garrison, leaving behind a bloody mess.

But obviously, if the time span is extended, it is inevitable that the demons will completely occupy the Jizhou city.

Chu Mu had a clear purpose. He entered through the main gate of the garrison and went straight to the lobby of the government office at the back of the garrison.

He stopped in the hall, and as he rolled up his sleeves, the true order floated in front of him. He raised his hand and pushed, and the suspended true order immediately flew into the hall.

The white jade talisman floated around in the hall, as if it was looking for something.

But this process only lasted for less than ten breaths, and the floating jade talisman hovered in the center of the hall.

The jade talisman glowed, and a ray of white light split into countless white light threads, spreading in all directions, as if connecting to something.

After a few breaths, the jade talisman dimmed, the light became transparent, and a space portal constructed with a faint fluorescent light stood in the center of the lobby.

"fortunately……"

Chu Mu felt relieved.

Yanyun is a self-contained system, and all rewards and punishments for the Changsheng Sect disciples stationed here naturally depend on Yanyun.

Obviously, there are treasure houses in every city of Yanyun.

And the Jizhou treasure house is the most special one among them.

In the Changsheng Sect, this Jizhou Treasury also has an extremely official name, namely Chengyun Treasury. The so-called Chengyun means "presentation" and Yun means transportation.

Every ten years, each city in Yanyun must offer a corresponding amount of spiritual objects to the Changsheng Sect. If they can offer rare spiritual objects, they will receive generous rewards from the sect.

All the spiritual offerings from the entire Yanyun Mountains are gathered in this transportation warehouse, and then transported to the Changsheng Treasure House from the transportation warehouse.

In the whole process, this transport warehouse plays a hub role.

Temporary storage and transportation.

Of course, the system is the system, and whether it is followed or not is obviously another matter.

Although after the Five Clans Rebellion that year, the leader of the Changsheng Sect has been committed to eliminating the family factions within the Changsheng Sect.

But obviously, this is not an easy task, and it can even be said to be something impossible to do.

After all, cultivators are also human beings, they also have relatives and friends.

The longer you live, the more you experience, and the more concerns you will inevitably have.

Wealth, companions, methods and places, which are considered indispensable for those who practice Taoism, also imply countless entanglements.

There may be some truly lonely people, but they are definitely very few.

Under the power of the leader of the Changsheng Sect, he can also act in a domineering manner towards the outside world. Those who obey him will prosper, and those who go against him will perish, and he can suppress them with his power.

But internally, there are undoubtedly many obstacles.

Among the nearly twenty Yuanying masters in the Changsheng Sect, more than half of them had their own Taoist companions and descendants, and most of them also had disciples who inherited their mantles.

Every powerful Yuanying represents an interest group entrenched within the Changsheng Sect.

This is also the fundamental reason why after he entered the Changsheng Sect as a true disciple, he rarely participated in the internal affairs of the Changsheng Sect.

Since he is high up as a mascot, everyone will give him a little face as the true disciple, but if it touches on the core interests, it will be like stealing people's money, which is like killing their parents.

Just like the Yanyun Mountains, the eighteen cities, and the eighty-eight camps, each one can be said to be a treasure trove!

In this system, anyone who holds key positions of power is a vested interest.

The two Supremes who once sat in the Yanyun Mountains were undoubtedly the core and fundamental existence of this interest system. In other words, the meaning of the existence of this interest system was to support the two Yuanying Supremes who were high above.

It can be said that the entire Yanyun Mountains are the "territory" of the two Nascent Soul Supremes.

However, this "territory" system belongs to the Changsheng Sect's large system.

Faced with this, even the leader of the Changsheng Sect is obviously powerless and cannot change the situation at all.

Under this kind of interest relationship, the so-called carriage system is naturally just a system.

This transport warehouse is actually the private treasure house of the two Nascent Soul masters.

Of course, strictly speaking, it should be said that it is a private treasure trove belonging to one of them.

After taking over Yanyun, according to previous records, there has always been only one person respected in the Yanyun Mountains, or in other words, the strong are respected.

The weak are only fit to be vassals.

However, no matter how huge and complicated the interest system that once dominated Yanyun was...

Now, with the outbreak of this demonic catastrophe, all of this has apparently disappeared?

It is an indisputable fact that he is the master of Yanyun Mountains.

It is foreseeable that given the current tragic situation of the Changsheng Sect, unless there are force majeure external factors, this fact will not change for a long time in the future.

"Sitting in Yanyun for eight hundred years..."

Flipping through the information displayed on the True Transmission Order, Chu Mu couldn't help but chuckle.

A supreme elder in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, with countless descendants, in eight hundred years, he almost turned the Yanyun Mountains into half of his family's territory.

Judging from the recorded information, it is obvious that the leader of the Changsheng Sect has also suppressed this huge interest system.

Taking advantage of years of war, the Yanyun Mountains had been mobilized on a large scale many times, and the Supreme was also sent to various war-torn areas many times to coordinate local affairs.

But these soft knives are ultimately of little significance in this world where the strong are respected.

The world of immortal cultivation in Da Chu is so vast, but in the Changsheng Sect, there are less than twenty Yuanying Taishangs in total.

They all have their own interests, and they all belong to the Changsheng Sect and are fellow disciples. A few interests will not lead to a complete fall-out.

If there had not been this demonic catastrophe, and if nothing unexpected happened, a new cycle might have begun thousands of years later.

I just don’t know, by then, there will be chaos among several tribes, and I don’t know, by then, whether the Changsheng Sect can be as lucky as it was this time and be reborn from the ashes.

"The past is like smoke..."

Chu Mu sighed lightly, moved his hand slightly, and the suspended true order sank into his arms.

Looking at the entrance to the Jizhou treasure house again, there was obviously a bit more heat in Chu Mu's eyes.

With the vastness of the Yanyun Mountains and eight hundred years of heritage...
