Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

"In the past, before the Three Realms were established, Panfeng Realm roamed the heavens."

"I was noticed by the Emperor of Nine Skies and entered the Nine Skies Palace to learn the mysterious magic."

"As I gathered the dragon and tiger, I became a top-grade golden elixir and traveled around the world."

"At that time, I went to a world in the middle thousand worlds, called the Mu Yuan World. It was a world where the profound law flourished. Although it was a world in the middle thousand worlds, it was quite prosperous, with countless natural treasures."

"In the Muyuan Realm, I accidentally discovered a place where purple energy was sublimating and light was flickering. It was a place of good fortune and there should be an innate treasure that contained the energy of good fortune."

"The treasure of good fortune can help you avoid bad luck and calamity. It is undoubtedly a godsend to me."

"I entered the blessed land, fought several battles in the cave, and avoided countless traps before I saw the remains of the owner of the blessed land and the treasure. But who would have thought that someone was following behind me!"

"Although the owner of the Fude Treasure Land is dead, the guardian beast is still there. I made an agreement with that person that whoever kills the guardian beast will get the innate treasure."

"But he took advantage of my fight with the spirit beast and not only stole the treasure, but also wanted to kill me. If I hadn't had some luck, I would have died long ago."

"Afterwards, I returned to Panfeng Realm, and I never forgot that person. I also had a few close friends when I traveled through the various realms before. They said that a new True Lord Zi Ji had recently appeared in the myriad realms. It is said that he obtained the Tao from the Muyuan Realm. The True Lord Zi Ji has a mysterious treasure in his hand that can avoid disasters and prolong life."

"If my guess is correct, that True Lord Ziji is the one who harmed me in the past. Now he has gone to the Tianyuan Realm. I heard that he was invited by a certain force to seek opportunities."

"I don't need you to kill him, as long as you can bring his treasure back. I will find him myself in the future and kill him!"

Ye Wenshu's words still echoed in Jiang Sheng's ears.

Above the South China Sea, two golden-maned lion beasts stepped on fiery clouds and pulled the cloud chariot through the air.

Jiang Sheng sat cross-legged on the cloud chariot with his eyelids drooped, as if he was taking a rest.

But Jiang Sheng was thinking about the True Lord Zi Ji and the innate treasure.

If it is really an innate treasure that contains the energy of blessings and virtues, then it is not surprising that it has the ability to prolong life and avoid disasters.

Blessings and virtues can eliminate bad luck, avoid disasters, prolong life, and protect longevity.

True Lord Zi Ji has such a treasure in his hand. If Jiang Sheng were to kill him, it would be easier, but just robbing him of his treasure would be much more complicated.

He sighed helplessly and thought of Huang Pingan and Li Jianchun, two children he had taught.

Whether it is Huang Ping'an or Li Jianchun, they are all people who have witnessed and confirmed Jiang Sheng's path. When Jiang Sheng was traveling around the ten continents in Panfeng Realm, they received Jiang Sheng's teachings. After Jiang Sheng left, they have been following Jiang Sheng's path and spreading Jiang Sheng's Taoism.

How can such a disciple not be considered to have inherited the mantle?

Thinking about how it has been nearly a thousand years since I broke through, and I have never paid attention to those two people, it must be my own problem.

While thinking, Jiang Sheng had already returned to the Little Penglai Fairyland.

Qiu Buyu had known about Jiang Sheng's return for a long time. At this time, the owners of the 108 islands in the Little Penglai Fairyland and the water gods of the 72 waters were already waiting here.

As the golden-maned lion beast came on fire, Qiu Buyu, Su Yutong, Zhuang Yi, and the disciples of Xiao Penglai, the masters of the 108 islands, and the water gods of the 72 water bodies all bowed and said:
"Welcome Master back to the mountain."

"Welcome back, Master."

The Yunchariot was pressed down, and Jiang Sheng waved his hand: "Everyone, please go back first. I will hold a banquet in Xuanqing Palace in three days. You can bring your favorite descendants and disciples."

"As long as you perform well, you can enter my Little Penglai Fairyland to practice."

The owner of the 108 islands was overjoyed upon hearing this, and thanked him and left.

The Little Penglai Fairyland is 12 million miles long, including 108 inner and outer islands and 72 square miles of water. It is home to more than tens of thousands of creatures on land and water.
However, although these are included in the Little Penglai Fairyland, they are just the fief and resources given to Jiang Sheng by Master Qingyan. The real Little Penglai is the island where Jiang Sheng is, and only that island is worthy of being called the Little Penglai Fairyland.

One hundred and eight islands inside and outside and seventy-two water areas formed a three-embedded magic array, with the two small islands planted with fire trees and laurels as the yin and yang array centers, jointly guarding the small Penglai main island hidden between reality and illusion.

If Jiang Sheng had not returned this time, these island masters and water gods would not be qualified to enter this small Penglai, let alone enjoy the fairy energy, sun essence and moon essence of small Penglai.

In the Xuanqing Palace, Qiu Buyu, Su Yutong and Zhuang Yi stood in front of Jiang Sheng, waiting for Jiang Sheng's instructions.

Jiang Sheng looked at them one by one and nodded. "During the time when the master was away, you have been quite diligent. Yutong and Zhuangyi, you two have followed your senior sister Buyu to practice the art for four hundred years and have now become top-grade golden elixirs. Not bad."

At present, Qiu Buyu has reached the level of Spirit Transformation, while Su Yutong and Zhuang Yi are in the late Golden Core stage and can break through to the Nascent Soul stage at any time. Their talents are truly remarkable.

In the past, in the world of mountains and rivers, the three Xuanmen sects regarded the achievement of a top-grade golden elixir in one sixty years as the true teaching. However, achieving a top-grade golden elixir in one sixty years does not mean that one can break through to the Nascent Soul stage or even the Divine Transformation stage in two or three sixty years.

As for Lingwei and Lingyu, these two senior brothers and sisters of Jiang Sheng, both of them practiced for seven or eight hundred years before they achieved the Nascent Soul and the Spiritual Transformation. After they formed the Golden Elixir, they also spent another three or four hundred years of hard work to refine the Golden Elixir to perfection.

This does not mean that they lack talent and understanding, on the contrary, they are pure genius.

In the past, in the Mountain and River Realm, the three Xuanmen sects of Penglai, Qinghua and Tianhe occupied the three continents and two seas of the Mountain and River Realm. The East Region Continent, the Central Region Continent and the South Region Continent, which were the most beautiful places where Taoism flourished, and the East China Sea and the South China Sea, the two most prosperous seas with the richest resources, were all controlled by the three Taoist sects.

There are naturally many geniuses among the billions of living beings in these three continents and two seas. It is impossible for the three Taoist sects to recruit all the geniuses, but those who can enter the three sects are all talents of the time. And those who can obtain the top-grade golden elixir and be listed as true disciples within a short period of sixty years, how can they be incompetent?
To be able to complete the Golden Elixir and peek into the Nascent Soul four hundred years after forming the Golden Elixir is already a true genius.

The fact that Su Yutong and Zhuang Yi were able to reach the Golden Elixir Perfection Realm within four hundred years was all thanks to the fact that the spiritual charm of the Three Realms is far superior to that of the Mountain and River Realm. If they were not in this small Penglai Fairyland with enough natural resources and treasures, they might not have been able to reach this level in such a short time.

How many people are as evil as Jiang Sheng in this world?
However, Jiang Sheng really hopes that his apprentice can surpass himself. As a master, who doesn't want his apprentice to be better than him? And who doesn't want his apprentice to go further and better and pass on his mantle?
But among Jiang Sheng's disciples, Shen Yao seems to be the most outstanding one.

But Shen Yao was born different, so there was nothing to worry about.

Jiang Sheng pondered and thought of Huang Pingan and Li Jianchun. These two were quite lucky and actually made it all the way to the Nascent Soul stage. It was obvious that they had some luck.

After a moment's silence, Jiang Sheng said, "Bu Yu, you have already attained the Dharmakāya and become a Dharmakāya True Person. It's time to prepare to embark on your own path."

"In the next few days, I will list the insights I gained during my time away from home. Please organize them for me and put them in the library."

"Then you can travel the heavens and pursue your own path."

Qiu Buyu nodded: "Disciple understands."

To let Qiu Buyu help Jiang Sheng organize his insights, to put it bluntly, is to let Qiu Buyu stay with Jiang Sheng and learn Jiang Sheng's latest and most comprehensive Taoism and concepts. This can serve as a signpost for Qiu Buyu and help her choose her own path.

This arrangement was also a test of her state of mind. Jiang Sheng would then prepare some things for Qiu Buyu, such as body protection magic weapons, soul protection magic weapons, some defensive talismans, life-saving talismans, and even talismans containing Jiang Sheng's attack methods, etc., for Qiu Buyu to practice outside.

After all, what Jiang Sheng wanted was for Qiu Buyu to be tempered, not for him to die outside.

After Qiu Buyu leaves, Su Yutong and Zhuang Yi will take over the management of Little Penglai Wonderland, allowing them to systematically learn how to run a Taoist temple so that they can manage their own business in the future.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Sheng said, "Yutong, Zhuangyi, since you two have reached the Golden Elixir Perfection, please do something for me."

"Yutong, take the master's talisman and go to the Small Divine Xiang Sect in Luzhou, South Territory, and bring Huang Ping'an and Li Jianchun back to the master."

After that, Jiang Sheng imprinted the location of Xiaoshenxiang Sect and the appearance and aura of Huang Pingan and Li Jianchun on the jade plate and handed it to Su Yutong.

"Zhuang Yi, take the master's talisman and go to Tianhe Dao Sect to find Mingdong Zhenjun. Then go to Xiaoliu Guangzhou and select three thousand people with good roots, comprehension, talent, and Dao heart, and bring them back to Xiao Penglai."

Jiang Sheng said this and handed another jade pendant to Zhuang Yi.

Su Yutong and Zhuang Yi bowed and left. Jiang Sheng looked at Su Yutong again and said, "Since you have become a Dharma Real Person, you should go and bring your Senior Brother Tian back. Although not all of my disciples are here, it's still good to meet those who can."

Su Yutong was wondering who Huang Pingan and Li Jianchun were, as well as who the disciples who had not yet arrived as mentioned by Jiang Sheng were. Finally, she left Xiao Penglai and went to Pingxiangjie to look for Tian Mingan.

After all the disciples left, Jiang Sheng snorted and looked outside the hall: "Why are you four spying outside instead of coming in?"

Hearing Jiang Sheng's words, the Green Ox, the Golden Lion, the White Elephant, and the Green Peng hurried in and saluted respectfully: "Master."

Jiang Sheng looked at the four great monsters he had subdued and rubbed his brows helplessly. He thought it was impossible to count on them to break through the realm and reach the realm of emptiness on their own.

It is already good enough that they can condense the bloodline Dharma image.

If they are summoned to heaven by His Majesty in the future, I am afraid he will give them a few Qingci positions.
Thinking about it, Jiang Sheng asked, "During the time I was away, have you trained your disciples well and not slacked off?"

Qingniu quickly replied, "Master, I have never slacked off. I have trained a full 10,000 Bull Demon Soldiers for you. The one in the old cow's cave also took into consideration that your temple lacks people to serve tea and water, so he specially trained 3,000 fox girls for you."

The Golden Lion also said, "Master, I am not idle either. I have trained 10,000 lion spirits for you."

Then Bai Xiang and Qing Peng also said that one of them had trained 10,000 elephant soldiers, the other had trained 10,000 Peng demons, and Bai Xiang's sworn brother, the Fire-Breaking Rhinoceros King, had also trained 3,000 rhinoceros soldiers. These four guys also gathered more than 40,000 soldiers for Jiang Sheng.

These are not ordinary little demons and monsters. They are Taoist soldiers refined by Jiang Sheng using the bull demon, lion spirit, elephant demon, and Peng monster.

These Taoist soldiers are considered part of Jiang Sheng’s main force.

Apart from them, there are Tian Mingan's Tian family, Qiu Buyu's Qiu family, the cultivator families that followed Su Yutong and Zhuang Yi, and the cultivators from Xuanzhou in the East. These human cultivators are another main force in Jiang Sheng's hands.

The inner thirty-six islands will basically be handed over to the families of Jiang Sheng's disciples and the descendants of the four monsters to manage and develop, allowing them to operate on their own and train Taoist soldiers for Jiang Sheng.

As for the cultivators and aquatic creatures in the seventy-two islands and seventy-two waters outside Xiao Penglai, Jiang Sheng did not have high expectations for them. When something really happened, he would be satisfied if they could get together to help.

Today, the Tian family and the Qiu family, as the two main human cultivator forces in the Little Penglai Realm, have also trained 30,000 to 40,000 Taoist soldiers.

With the further development of Su Yutong, Zhuang Yi and others, together with the remnants of the Xiaoliuguang Realm in Xiaoliuguang Province, it would be no problem to gather a hundred thousand Taoist soldiers.

Although one hundred thousand Taoist soldiers are not many, they are enough.

In the future, there will be family forces such as Huang Pingan, Li Jianchun, Su Yutong, Zhuang Yi and even Zhang Xiaojiu in the Thirty-Six Islands of Jiang Sheng.

As for Shen Yao, before Jiang Sheng left, there were already millions of cultivators and hundreds of thousands of ghosts and gods in Jinhua Mountain.

If you calculate it carefully, Jiang Sheng's current power is really not small. Even ordinary True Lords in the Fusion Realm may not have a family business as big as Jiang Sheng's.

Thinking about his family business and how to place his disciples in the future, Su Yutong soon returned with Huang Pingan and Li Jianchun.

Huang Ping'an and Li Jianchun were naturally happy to see Jiang Sheng. They told him about their experiences and their respective paths over the years, which made Jiang Sheng quite pleased.

Afterwards, Zhuang Yi also returned with three thousand carefully selected monks from Xiaoliuguang Prefecture.

Including Tian Mingan and Qiu Buyu, there were six disciples of Jiang Sheng present.

Three days later, a banquet was held in the Little Penglai fairyland. The island owners and water gods of the 108 islands and 72 waters of Little Penglai came to the banquet with their outstanding disciples and descendants.

After presenting their respective congratulations to Jiang Sheng, Jiang Sheng also announced publicly that he would accept Huang Ping'an and Li Jianchun as his disciples, and he also carefully selected more than 300 people from the disciples and descendants of the island owner Shui Jun to practice in Xiao Penglai.

After the banquet, Jiang Sheng first tested Huang Ping'an and Li Jianchun on their cultivation, and then asked them to each train a Taoist army of ten thousand people.

He also asked Su Yutong and Zhuang Yi to practice alchemy well. After they reached the Nascent Soul stage, they would also have to refine Taoist soldiers and develop their own families.

The reason why Jiang Sheng asked his disciples to make such preparations was because he took into consideration the complicated situation in the Tianyuan Realm.

When a storm breaks out in the Tianyuan Realm, only God knows which descendants of the Taoist traditions in the major realms and which disciples of the big forces get involved.

Although both Penglai and Qinghua are helping Tianhe Dao Sect, they obviously have their own thoughts.

Jiang Sheng immediately understood what Master Qingyan said: "The three sects of Xuanmen are of the same origin."

When you arrive at the Tianyuan Realm, the only people you can rely on are probably Penglai's own True Lords, so it's always a good idea to prepare more.

In the Xuanqing Palace, Jiang Sheng quietly looked at his six disciples and four great demons: "Ming'an, Buyu, the Tian family and the Qiu family, gather 10,000 Taoist soldiers."

"Green Ox, Golden Lion, White Elephant, Green Peng, the four of you, gather 20,000 Taoist soldiers."

"Ping An, Jian Chun, Yu Tong, Zhuang Yi, your current mission is to practice well. Choose one of the thirty-six islands, develop your family power, and train a group of Taoist soldiers who can be used."

"This time, I will go to Tianyuan Realm, which will take at least a thousand years. This is a great opportunity for the development of our Penglai lineage. Don't miss it."

The six disciples and four great demons all agreed.

A few days later, Jiang Sheng led 30,000 Taoist soldiers and White Elephant's good brother, the Fire-Breaking Rhinoceros King, to leave the Three Realms and head straight for the Tianyuan Realm. (End of this chapter)
