After checking the growth of the Jade Sword Butterfly, and seeing that one was about to hatch, Xu Junming placed a layer of restrictions on the steep peak.
Although no one can disturb this spirit beast courtyard, sometimes it is better to be careful.
Not far from the lake, there is a cliff. Green bamboos are planted on the cliff. Inside is a bluestone platform of several hundred square meters. There is a wide stone cave on the cliff wall next to the platform.
A plaque was cut out above the cave, which read "Thunder God Cave".
On the left side of the cave entrance, a green-colored sacred cow with one leg and no horns is lying there sleeping soundly.
"This stupid cow, who does nothing all day except eating and sleeping, is still a thunder god?"
He shook his head, too lazy to care about it anymore.
Dunguang flew to the east of the big lake, where there was a valley with a huge sycamore tree growing in the valley.
On the canopy of the sycamore tree, there is a three-foot-sized bird's nest woven with countless spiritual grasses. Inside the nest are five bucket-sized, blue eggs.
These eggs are full of vitality, with a faint glow that comes and goes.
Countless spiritual energy was slowly absorbed by it.
By moving the bronze mirror, you can see that among these eggs, birds with tail feathers and a shape like a phoenix have appeared.
Of course, they are not phoenixes, but luan birds.
It is also a fairy species.
This sycamore tree, together with these eggs, are all things that originally existed in the Treasure Tree and Spirit Beast Villa of the Chongyang Cave Heaven Palace.
Xu Junming obtained the palace treasure tree, and these spiritual beasts also fell into his hands.
The reason why Chongyangzi turned into Luo Yue and appeared in front of him was to tempt him to go to Chongyang's inner courtyard to die. Most likely, he didn't want him to get these extremely precious spiritual beasts.
Times have changed, so Xu Junming didn't bother to find out what the details were.
After taking a look and checking the vitality in each egg, he left the Spirit Beast Villa.
In the entire courtyard, there are currently only three spiritual beasts: Kui Niu, Luan Bird and Jade Sword Butterfly.
The phoenix eggs are still placed on the Suzaku Peak in Taishi Cave.
Ever since Xu Junming opened up another layer of world in the cave of Dihuang Mountain and placed palaces, treasure trees and Chongshan residences here, he called the vast world of 23,000 kilometers "Taishi Cave".
And the newly opened cave he opened was called "Taiyuan Cave".
The reason why it is called a cave rather than a world is because there is no lunar sun, no four seasons, no cycle of frost, snow and rain.
Only after surviving the final immortal tribulation can the Earth Emperor's Cave Heaven be called the 'Earth Emperor Realm'.
Arriving at the 'Taishi Cave', the aura on the phoenix egg was more powerful than before, and the sound of breathing in and out of spiritual energy was more astonishing than before.
The reason why Xu Junming placed it here instead of in the Spirit Beast Courtyard was because he hoped that the spiritual energy it would bring could quickly expand the entire Dihuang Mountain Cave Heaven.
The latter was able to expand to 23,000 miles in ten years. Most of the credit was due to the absorption of the Chongyang Cave Heaven, but the spiritual energy brought by the phoenix eggs was also an important reason.
Realizing that the consciousness within the phoenix egg was still sleeping, Xu Junming did not disturb him.
Suddenly, ‘Qianyang Peak’ had a mighty spiritual light.
Not long after, a young woman wearing a long green dress, a gold hairpin in her hair, a wooden staff in her hand, and a tattoo on her left cheek appeared on the altar at the top of the mountain.
"Master?"
Sensing Xu Junming's consciousness, the woman looked surprised and quickly activated her escape light to fly over.
After joining Xu Junming's family for more than ten years, Qiao Shouxin has already grown into a big girl.
"Master, are you out of seclusion?"
After nodding, Xu Junming looked at his third disciple with a smile.
"How many people did you bring back to me this time?"
Ever since Qiao Shouxin was in Xiajiang City, she brought all the orphans in the city back to Dihuang Mountain and gave them to him as a master to raise. From then on, she became a layman. In addition to slaying demons and demons, she also had to take care of homeless orphans and widowed children wherever she went.
bring back.
After more than ten years, over time, there are more than 200,000 orphans in the entire Dihuang Mountain.
Fortunately, the training model of Chongshan Academy has been relatively perfect under Xu Junming's many years of management. In addition, the orphans who grew up a few years ago can already share the pressure for him.
Otherwise, just taking care of the food for so many people would be enough to exhaust his energy.
However, in recent years, just recruiting orphans and widowed children seems to have been unable to satisfy her cheap apprentice's desire to do good deeds. Many kind-hearted people who were oppressed by corrupt officials were also rescued by her to Dihuang Mountain.
"Hehe, Master. Actually, it's not much."
Qiao Shouxin walked over and hugged her master's arm with a look of coquettishness on her face.
I'm afraid not many people know that the compassionate and dignified "Fairy Kongsang" who has become famous in the Dayong cultivation world in recent years still has this appearance in front of her.
Xu Junming sighed. Whenever Qiao Shouxin looked like this, there would be a lot of trouble later.
"How many?"
"One hundred and ninety thousand!"
"One hundred and ninety thousand?"
Xu Junming's eyes widened.
He thought Qiao Shouxin could get back tens of thousands of people just because he was able to survive, but he didn't expect it to be several times as many as he expected.
"Master, you don't know. In recent years, the Dayong court has been in chaos, corrupt officials are rampant among the people, and the government forces the people to rebel almost every year. Just a year and a half ago, nine people in Liyang, Pucheng and other places in Northern Jiangsu Province
The mansion was in disaster due to the flooding of the Chaoyang River, and there was no harvest."
"The disaster relief food distributed by the imperial court was misappropriated by corrupt officials. The starving people rose up and attacked the prefectures and counties. It took more than a year to pacify them. As a result, the new emperor who had just ascended the throne not only failed to understand the suffering of the victims and killed the corrupt officials, but also blamed the people who could not survive.
The hungry people who went down.”
"In order to frighten the situation of continuous civil unrest, an order was issued to kill all 300,000 people in Liangjiang County, the first uprising in Northern Jiangsu Province, and use their heads to cast a monument in Beijing as a warning to others."
As she spoke, a strong look of anger appeared on her face.
"If Master hadn't repeatedly told me not to interfere with the Dayong Palace, I would have rushed to the Jinluan Palace and killed the dog emperor who couldn't tell right from wrong."
Xu Junming shook his head.
The emperor of this world is accompanied by dragon energy. Although his apprentice is strong, if he really goes there, let alone killing the emperor, he will be killed as soon as he enters the imperial city.
"So, you brought back all the people in Liangjiang County?"
Xu Junming changed the topic.
"Master, they are all innocent people. How could my disciples ignore death? And don't you always teach your disciples to be compassionate and help the world and save people?!"
"Besides, Master, don't worry, I've already looked through it with a mirror. Among the people who came down, there are definitely no evil people filled with resentment."
The mirror was originally Guan Hongxue's magic weapon, with twelve levels of treasure prohibitions.
Later, after being obtained by Xu Junming, with a little practice, he survived the catastrophe and became a spiritual treasure.
Different from the eight-foot mirror of the Space Lingbao, the mirror can identify good and evil, recall what happened in the past month, and can also emit the divine light of reflection. Anyone covered by this divine light will be sealed, and the seven orifices will be sealed.
It is manipulated by the owner of Lingbao.
"In that case, let's keep them here."
Taishi Cave currently covers an area of 23,000 miles, and it will not be crowded even if hundreds of millions of people are crammed into it.
The total number of people living here is less than a million.
There is enough space to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.
"You can bring them back if they bring them back, but since you are the one who brought them back, you are responsible for the arrangements."
"Hehe, thank you so much, Master... By the way, Master. Can you transfer some more disciples from Chongshan Academy to me?"
Nowadays, the entire population in Taishi Dongtian is included in the management of the academy, especially education.
Xu Junming, who upholds the concept of universal education for later generations, also pursues this approach in his own cave.
He really hopes to see what kind of spiritual prosperity the two parties can cultivate after combining.
Moreover, the Cave Heaven of Earth Emperor Mountain entrusts his understanding of the Human Emperor Dao. If a prosperous era of the Human Dao occurs here, it can also improve the practice of other people's Imperial Dao.
"Why don't you go to the Twelve Lower Houses yourself to transfer people?"
As he spoke, a yellow-skinned gourd appeared in his palm, "There are more than 10,000 yellow bud pills in it. Use it to issue tasks. I believe many academy disciples will be interested."
"Thank you Master!"
Qiao Shouxin happily took it.
Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Xu Junming again.
With a wave of his hand, a stream of light flew from the air, and when it fell into the palm of his hand, it turned into a Bagua furnace with radiant light.
"Aren't you planning to study alchemy? This Bagua furnace is the alchemy furnace I used before. I will give you the twelve spiritual weapons."
"No need, Master?"
"I already have a better alchemy furnace, so I won't use this one."
"Thank you Master for the treasure, but I can't use it anymore!"
As he spoke, Qiao Shouxin opened his palms, and a three-legged, two-eared pill furnace full of medicinal energy emerged from his palms.
Looking at its spirituality, you can tell at a glance that it is a magic weapon.
"My disciple was traveling this time and accidentally found an ancient monk's cave and got this alchemy furnace."
Xu Junming's eyebrows twitched and he took a slight breath.
As my little disciple, my fortune and luck seem to be deeper than mine. Every time I go out on the road, I can always turn danger into danger, and every time I gain something.
In more than ten years, her "Meilan Xiaozhu" Cave Dharma Realm has reached a size of thousands of miles.
There are many spiritual roots cultivated inside, and there are even a few cave-level spiritual roots.
In terms of treasures, in addition to the mirror given by Xu Junming, the Qibao flower basket was also transformed into a spiritual treasure by her.
In addition, as a layman these years, I also received a spiritual treasure called "Caixia Yi".
As for his cultivation, he has made rapid progress and is now at the sixth level of Nascent Soul.
If only a few more years had passed, I might have caught up with him as a master.
He shook his head slightly in his heart. The better the apprentice is, the happier he will be as the master.
He reached out and pointed, and a ray of light penetrated Qiao Shouxin's eyebrows.
"This is the 'Seven Stars Unifying the Moon Formation' that Master has understood. You can combine the power of the seven treasures, or you can fight the enemy alone. It can greatly enhance your strength. If you collect enough materials later, bring them to Master.
, Master will practice a formation diagram for you."
After a brief understanding, Qiao Shouxin nodded happily.
"Thank you, Master."
He waved his hand.
"Go for it!"
"Then I'll take my leave first."
As soon as he finished speaking, the escaping light took off and flew straight towards the outer reaches of the cave sky.
Looking at her back, Xu Junming looked pleased.
His three apprentices are now able to take charge of their own affairs.
