There is a progress bar in my cultivation of immortality

Wang Ping floated in the clouds above Qianmu Temple, and used the "Dongtian Mirror" to connect to the surviving puppets in the Southeast Islands. He quickly understood the cause and effect of the matter.

This time, it was Ao Hong who deliberately caused trouble for the Taiyin Sect and attacked the Taiyin Sect's merchant ships traveling from Hushan Kingdom to the South China Sea, which led to the Taiyin Sect's retaliation. The two sides then started fighting, and the Yuqing Sect also took the opportunity to attack the Taiyin Sect's temple in Hushan Kingdom, causing heavy losses to the Taiyin Sect's disciples.

"It's really not a worry."

Wang Ping pretended not to see it and then landed on the mountaintop dojo. At this moment, Qianmu Temple was very quiet inside and outside. That was because most of the disciples from each courtyard had moved to Taiyan Mountain. Now, there were less than 500 disciples inside and outside Qianmu Temple, and they were all menial disciples, responsible for cleaning the courtyards.

Liu Shuang also stayed in Qianmu Temple. She handed over most of the affairs of the sect to Ziluan, and she lived in Qianmu Temple in seclusion. Her disciples did not leave either.

Another is Hu Qianqian. The area around her dojo has been expanded a lot, and some demon disciples who are dependent on her have been accommodated. However, Hu Qianqian is not in Qianmu Temple, but in Baishui Lake, supervising the reconstruction of Baishui Lake.

"Meow~"

As the space shook, the figure of a calico cat appeared and called out to Wang Ping.

Wang Ping felt what she was saying, but he really couldn't understand.

Yu Lian translated, "She said that she would move to Taiyan Mountain with Zuo Liang. They had rebuilt a training ground in Taiyan Mountain, and Zuo Liang needed to be there to take charge. However, her disciple Xuan You stayed in Dongshui Mountain to practice."

Wang Ping looked at the calico cat and smiled, "Zuo Xuan has left behind a legacy."

"Meow~"

"She asked you if you wanted to move to Taiyan Mountain?"

Wang Ping shook his head and said, "I am here to practice. The existence of Taiyan Mountain has its significance, but I don't want to completely master it. As long as it can serve me, it's fine."

The calico cat looked at Wang Ping intently and said in a slightly sharp tone, "In that case, I will stay here to practice. I am already familiar with the spirit gathering array in this place."

Yu Lian asked in a teasing tone: "Aren't you watching Zuo Liang?"

"She has already reached the third level. Only she can figure out the future path." The calico cat jumped onto the cushion where she had been lying under the old locust tree and sat down to talk, then climbed down again after speaking.

Wang Ping sat cross-legged beside the coffee table, and his spiritual consciousness instantly detected Taiyan Mountain.

At present, the main peak of Taiyan Mountain is full of pavilions and towers, giving it a feeling of a fairy cave. Construction is underway everywhere on other peaks. The workers are all people who have migrated from Zhonghui City. They have built a number of habitats near Taiyan Mountain. While the men are working, the women and children are reclaiming wasteland nearby.

At this moment, Zi Luan was leading Que Cai, Xuan Ling, Shen Xiaozhu, Li Miaolin and others to set up the spirit gathering formation on Tai Yan Mountain. Judging from their posture, they were also planning to set up a "Nine Extremes Great Formation", and all the materials were ready.

The monks from the Underworld Gate have not left yet. They still need to continue constructing the mountains and terrain around Taiyan Mountain. After completing the reconstruction of Taiyan Mountain, there are still 100,000 mountains in the east of Yunjiang Road that need them to repair.

The restoration of the Shiwandashan Mountains has been completed, and there are still more terrains and rivers in the plains that need to be dredged, and the Taiyan Church is responsible for the subsequent ecological reconstruction.

Perhaps hundreds of years later, the Diku Gate and the Taiyan Church will become the gods of creation passed down by word of mouth among the people.

"I'll go to Whitewater Lake to see how long it will take to recover."

As Yu Lian spoke, she took off into the sky without caring that it was already night, and went to Mingyuetan in Sanhe Prefecture first.

Liu Shuang sensed Yu Lian's aura and immediately soared up from his own dojo. In a blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the old locust tree. Looking at Wang Ping sitting next to the coffee table, he clasped his fists with joy and said, "Master."

"Come and have tea."

Wang Ping greeted with a smile.

Liu Shuang walked over with ease. After she was relieved of her duties as the head of the front hall, she felt that when she communicated with her master again, she naturally returned to her previous casualness.

The master and the disciple chatted for a long time this time, and the topic was all about some interesting things in cultivation. When it was almost dawn, Liu Shuang said: "Senior Yuanzheng wants to establish a sect in the place where the Six Hearts Sect used to be."

Wang Ping said: "This is a good thing, we should fully support him."

Liu Shuang said: "He returned to Shangdan Sect first. I heard that there was an important decision within Shangdan Sect that he had to go back to participate. His disciples are exploring the terrain over there. After Taiyan Sect is re-established, they will start to build a Taoist temple."

Wang Ping nodded in agreement.

Liu Shuang put down the teacup in his hand and continued, "Wen Hai plans to rebuild Pingdong Gate on Mozhou Road to repay Pingdong Gate for helping him. In addition, Qu Bo, the only surviving leader of Shandao Gate, plans to rebuild the mountain gate at the original location of Ningde Prefecture. Leng Kezhen seems to have promised him something."

Wang Ping smiled and said, "Wen Hai and Leng Kezhen are both paying off their debts. It's no big deal. These two factions are pretty loyal. If you see anything they need, try to satisfy them."

Liu Shuang nodded "yes", then looked up at the sky and prepared to get up and say goodbye.

Wang Ping instructed her again, "We don't need those menial disciples anymore, so dismiss them all. Also, the guiding disciples outside my dojo don't need to stay any longer."

Liu Shuang nodded again and left quickly.

Two days later.

The few hundred remaining menial disciples in Qianmu Temple also left.

Wang Ping came to the sky above Dengxiantai. The once bustling Dengxiantai was now deserted. Wang Ping had no attachment to this place. As he scattered a handful of seeds in his hand, the flat Dengxiantai square was quickly swallowed up by dense vegetation, followed by the nearby mountain gate and steps.

Then, there was the martial arts training ground for the outer sect disciples. Groups of buildings were dragged underground by the surging vines, and finally there were the buildings of the inner sect courtyards.

In the blink of an eye, only the front hall complex remained inside and outside Qianmu Temple. That was because the True Lords, Mansion Lords, and the founder of Qianmu Temple were still placed here.

At this time, Yu Lian returned from the direction of Baishui Lake and saw the greatly changed Qianmu Temple inside and outside. She appeared beside Wang Ping and said, "Some necessary river channels are missing."

Wang Ping nodded. After the various buildings were filled in, there was a lack of dredged rivers, which had a great impact on the subsequent environment.

"give it to me."

Yu Lian said this and flew towards Sanhe Prefecture again, probably planning to let her people do this.

Wang Ping flew to the top of Qianmu Mountain and threw a handful of spirit tree seeds at the steps leading up the mountain. The steps then disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then the row of buildings outside the Taoist temple where disciples lived were also swallowed up by the dense spirit trees.

After doing all this, Wang Ping landed above the pavilion on the edge of the mountaintop dojo. Looking at the silent mountains and jungle, he couldn't help but feel better. Qianmu Temple will continue to exist in the future, but it will no longer accept any cause and effect. All cause and effect will be borne by Taiyan Sect, and this place will become a pure place for practice.

After a while.

Wang Ping soared into the sky again, and this time he landed in the courtyard of his master Taoist Yucheng, which still retained its previous appearance. He looked at the stone table and stone benches in the courtyard, and then looked at the martial arts training ground where he often used to gather energy.

"time flies."

After leaving these words, he left the courtyard and returned to the temple on the top of the mountain to make tea and rest.

Yu Lian also returned at this time and said to Wang Ping: "My people should be here in a few days." As she spoke, she looked in the direction of the calico cat, which was trimming its hair at the moment.

Wang Ping looked up at the sky in the north. The aura of Zi Luan and others were approaching this side quickly, so he sent a message to Liu Shuang, asking her to go and meet Zi Luan and others.

Soon, the deserted mountaintop dojo became lively. Zi Luan, Que Cai, Li Miaolin, Xuan Ling and Shen Xiaozhu appeared in front of the old locust tree under the leadership of Liu Shuang.

After everyone greeted each other, Wang Ping called Shen Xiaozhu and said, "Go to the mountain to pick some fruits. Xuan Ling, go help your sister."

"Yes, Master/Teacher."

After the two agreed, they flew into the sky, and Yu Lian followed suit.

Wang Ping called to Liu Shuang again, "Come and make some tea." Then he said to Zi Luan and the others, "Come and sit down and have a cup of tea."

Zi Luan and others naturally nodded in agreement.

After Wang Ping and the others sat cross-legged on the cushions that had been prepared in advance, they looked at Zi Luan and asked, "How are the preparations for rebuilding Taiyan Sect going?"

Zi Luan quickly straightened up and clasped his fists, saying, "In reply to your Excellency, we have planned to build the five courtyards of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth, as well as the Inner Court, the Weapon Court, the Alchemy Court, and the Discipline Court according to the previous internal structure of Qianmu Temple."

Wang Ping nodded and motioned for Zi Luan to continue.

Zi Luan maintained a respectful demeanor and continued, "Each academy only maintains the basic structure of Tai Yan Sect. The true teachings of Tai Yan are jointly mastered by me, Daoist Fellow Que Cai, Daoist Fellow Li Miaolin, Daoist Fellow Xuan Ling, Daoist Fellow Yu Xi, and Daoist Fellow Xia Wenyi. Based on this, we will form the inner sect, which is specifically responsible for the inheritance of Tai Yan Sect."

Wang Ping didn't think much about it, nodded and said, "Okay."

But then he added: "Xiao Zhu will not get involved in your affairs. She will still practice with me. My lineage depends on her to continue."

As soon as his last words came out, everyone stood up and saluted.

Wang Ping waved his hand and said, "Remember, we are worshipping the name of Xiaoshan Zhenjun, Yuxiao Fujun is the founder of our sect..." He said this with a serious expression, "Yuxiao Fujun is the first generation leader of our Taiyan Sect, Taoist Chongxing and Taoist Zhongde are the second generation of cultivators, we are the third generation of cultivators, and my master Taoist Yucheng is also a second generation cultivator."

He pointed at Liu Shuangyan and said, "This generation is the fourth generation of cultivators." He then looked at Zi Luan and added, "Don't record your master-disciple relationship with Master Xiao Shan. Do you understand?"

Zi Luan hesitated for a moment before responding solemnly, "I understand."

Wang Ping didn't care about Zi Luan's hesitation. He nodded in satisfaction after hearing Zi Luan's answer. He looked at Que Cai and said, "From now on, you and Li Miaolin will be the deputy masters of Tai Yan Sect. Your future mission is very simple, which is to try your best to bring the quota of Tai Yan cultivators in the third realm back to Tai Yan Sect."

Upon hearing this, Que Cai and Li Miaolin responded with a serious look, "We will follow the orders of the Lord."

At this time, Yu Lian fell from the sky and landed on Wang Ping's shoulder. Then Xuan Ling and Xiao Zhu landed beside the coffee table with fruit plates filled with freshly picked fruits.

"Qianmu Temple will continue to be my dojo in the future. I will not interfere with any of your decisions regarding Taiyan Sect." Wang Ping asked Xiaozhu to put down the fruit plate, and said to Ziluan and others, "There is one more very important thing. You must go to Xizhou as soon as possible to open a dojo and preach. The battle for the artifact will continue in Xizhou in the future, but we just need to watch and don't join in blindly."

After he finished giving the instructions, he told Xiao Zhu to divide the fresh fruits for everyone and asked about the details of Tai Yan Sect's preparations.

Half an hour passed between questions and answers. Wang Ping finally said, "The fire set by True Lord Lieyang has left nothing in Zhongzhou, and the Dao Palace is in name only. Therefore, there is no need to invite anyone to the ceremony held by Taiyan Sect. We can just have fun on our own."

After Wang Ping finished speaking, he looked at the reactions of the crowd and added appropriately: "Of course, if you have any personal friends, you can also invite them to come and witness it."

Zi Luan and others naturally bowed their heads in response.

After chatting for a while, Wang Ping felt their restraint, so he waved his hand and asked Zi Luan and others to leave, leaving Xiao Zhu and Xuan Ling to chat.

Wang Ping didn't make any plans for Xuan Ling, so after Zi Luan and the others left, he looked at Xuan Ling and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

"Find a quiet place, teach me, and practice slowly." Xuan Ling answered neatly at first, and then added: "If the teacher has other tasks, I will do my best to do it."

Upon hearing this, Yu Lian couldn't help but say in her spiritual sea: "It turns out that Xuan Ling, who was a blank slate, also understands the ways of the world."

Wang Ping looked at Xuan Ling and said with a warm smile: "The south is such a big place, now you can choose. Choose a place and let Taiyan Sect pay for you to build a Taoist temple. You can also hold the title of deputy head of Taiyan Sect. How about it?"

Xuan Ling replied respectfully: "Thank you, teacher."

Wang Ping nodded. He had originally planned to sever the superficial causal relationship between all his disciples and the Tai Yan Sect, but when he saw Xuan Ling just now, he suddenly had an idea and let Xuan Ling maintain the causal relationship with the Tai Yan Sect.

Seeing Xuan Ling's respectful look, he thought about the fact that they were a master and a disciple after all, and added: "Now that these mountains are vacant, if you are willing, you can find a place here to use as your own dojo."

Hearing this, Xuan Ling raised his head slightly and looked at Wang Ping. Seeing that Wang Ping did not seem to be talking casually, he said after a moment of silence: "Thank you, teacher. I choose the jungle north of Dongshui Mountain."

Liu Shuang beside him couldn't help but say: "That place has always been empty. The disciples of Dongshui Mountain have never developed it before."

Xuan Ling bowed to Liu Shuang and said, "I like a quieter place."

Wang Ping looked at Liu Shuang and ordered, "Take your junior brother to see that place." Then he looked at Xuan Ling, "However, I don't advocate large-scale construction here."

When Xuan Ling was about to say something, Wang Ping smiled and waved his hand: "You guys leave first."

Both the senior sister and the junior brother looked at Shen Xiaozhu who stayed behind and bowed and left at the same time. After they left, Yu Lian flew up into the sky, performed a "cleaning spell" to clean the area around the coffee table, and flew to the side to make tea for Liu Shuang.

Wang Ping first asked Shen Xiaozhu to sit in front of him, and then placed three jade slips with his consciousness on the coffee table. Two of the jade slips contained the secrets of "External Body Technique" and "Giant Object Technique", and the remaining one contained some of Wang Ping's experiences since his practice.
