As Zhang Ke lowered his hands, Shan Qianhui also unconsciously lowered her hands, resting them on her lower Dantian, folding her hands together to form the yin and yang mudra.
Zhang Ke could tell from Xu Qingzhi's expression what he was thinking at the moment.
"Qingzhi, what are you looking for?"
"No, I didn't find anything."
"snort!"
Zhang Ke snorted and didn't argue with her.
You know your own reputation, so it's no wonder that Xu Qingzhi thinks about things he shouldn't think about.
Xu Qingzhi glanced at Shan Qianhui, who was still wandering around the sky with her eyes closed, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.
"Master, it's been six months. Hasn't Shanzhang Ling still stabilized the realm of Daojun?"
Two hundred years ago, 'Flying Sword Immortal' Qin Qing resolutely led the 'Bixiao Palace' to join the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect' after seeing Qingmei kill four Dao Lords in a matter of seconds.
After joining the Nanzong, Tan Qing devoted himself to practicing swordsmanship and became a disciple of Qingmei, who was also in the Taoist realm. From then on, he stopped interfering in any affairs of the sect.
The owner of the second island, the "Flying Witch" Bian Yuhong, was born with powerful spiritual power and was good at enchantment and illusion. She was appointed by Zhang Ke as the director of the Prison Department, one of the thirty-six departments, to engage in execution and interrogation work.
One government, two academies, eight ministries, and thirty-six departments, this is the structure of the "inspection platform".
In addition to being in charge of the Prison Division of the 'Xunjie Platform', Bian Yuhong is also in charge of the 'Xiantian Yiqi Nanzong' Wind Catching Platform.
Originally, this position was held by Zhang Ke's junior sister Biluo Zhenjun.
However, Bi Luo has been cultivating in the Netherworld all year round, which has resulted in the laxity of laws and regulations in the Catching Tower, and it has not had the proper deterrent effect on the gate.
Zhang Ke took back this responsibility and temporarily handed it over to Yu Fengtong's management.
However, Yu Fengtong has a changeable temperament. When he took charge of this position, he did not punish the disciples according to the rules, but all based on personal preference.
As time went on, not only the disciples in the sect complained, but also the senior leaders in the sect were very dissatisfied and repeatedly requested Yu Fengtong's dismissal.
However, this position is related to the order of the sect and the position is so high that Zhang Ke cannot leave it to any outsider.
At this time, the three sisters of the Bixiao Palace joined the sect. After a detailed investigation, Zhang Ke handed over this responsibility to Bian Yuhong.
Bian Yuhong was very interested in this appointment.
I have never been given wrong names but never wrong nicknames.
The word "devil" in the title "Flying Witch" reveals Bian Yuhong's temperament.
After Bian Yuhong took over the Wind Catcher, he first reorganized the internal order and established his prestige with 172 heads.
After a careful investigation of many criminals in the prison, a secret was obtained from the remaining disciples of the "Vajra Sect" in the prison in a very short period of time.
Zhang Ke's guess was right back then, the 'Good Fortune Chengyuan Manna' was indeed a trap deliberately prepared by the 'Vajra Sect' for the 'Xiantian Yiqi South Sect'.
Originally, in the plan of the 'King Kong Sect', the 'Xiantian Yiqi South Sect' got the formula of this elixir and would secretly refine it.
According to ancient records, once the ‘Creation Chengyuan Nectar’ is successfully refined, visions of heaven and earth will appear.
When the time comes, the secret hidden in the 'King Kong Sect' will announce this information to the outside world, making the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect' become the target of public criticism.
It's a pity that Zhang Ke secretly sensed the hidden dangers in this formula, and announced the existence of the 'Good Fortune Chengyuan Manna' to the sects all over the world more than a hundred years ago, quietly averting a disaster.
They even used this elixir as bait to make many mid-level sects secretly defect to the Southern Sect.
After sorting out many internal matters, Bian Yuhong abided by the rules and precepts, acted impartially and enforced the law impartially, and quickly established a firm foothold in the Catching Tower and the Prison Department.
In addition to Bian Yuhong, Shan Qianhui, the master of the three islands of Bixiao Palace, "Jade Guanyin", was appointed by Zhang Ke as the commander of "Doubu", one of the eight patrols of "Xunjie Tai".
‘Thunder’, ‘Fire’, ‘Dou’, ‘Wind’, ‘Water’, ‘Jin’, ‘Shen’, and ‘Ming’ are the force organizations of the ‘Boundary Patrol Platform’.
Among them, the first three parts are responsible for external conquests, the middle three parts are responsible for maintaining order internally, and the last two parts correspond to the pursuit and suppression of transgressing spirits from the two realms of "gods" and "ghosts".
Shan Qianhui's talent is unparalleled. He is the only one in the entire azure world who can deduce the cultivation techniques from just an ordinary Taoist scripture and cultivate to the realm of Yuanshen.
However, precisely because there is no one to guide us on the path of practice, there are omissions in establishing the most critical foundation for practice.
If she was just a real Jin Dan, this omission could be completely ignored.
But after she achieved Yuan Shen, if she wanted to go further, the omissions in the Dao foundation would become the biggest obstacle to her continued practice.
This is just like building a house in the secular world. If you just want to build an ordinary one-story house, a little instability in the foundation will not have much impact.
But if you want to build a skyscraper, the importance of the foundation becomes highlighted.
This is the case for Shan Qianhui, so since he achieved Yuanshen, he has been working hard to make up for his Dao foundation.
However, over the past few hundred years, Zhang Ke has used various heavenly materials, earthly treasures and miraculous elixirs to complete the Tao foundation for Shan Qianhui.
But it's just like applying a patch, it will never be as stable as the original piece.
In fact, many sects were not convinced by Zhang Ke's appointment of Shan Qianhui as the commander of the "Doubu" among the eight divisions.
Shan Qianhui's combat effectiveness is not very strong because her Dao foundation is not stable enough.
The Eight Patrol Troopers are the only armed force organization of the "Boundary Patrol Station". They rank first among all the duties of the "Boundary Patrol Station" in terms of salary, armaments and powers.
Practitioners from tens of thousands of sects in the world are proud to join the eight divisions, especially the three divisions of "Thunder", "Fire" and "Dou".
Shan Qianhui did not show strong fighting power, but she actually became the commander of the Dou Department. Naturally, she could not convince others.
Almost everyone thinks that Zhang Ke is helping his lover seek benefits.
Regarding this matter, Zhang Ke did have selfish motives. Otherwise, why would he have worked so hard to build the ‘Boundary Patrol Platform’? Could it be that he was just trying to become a saint.
Of course, the Fighting Department is responsible for external conquests. If the commander is incompetent and encounters a strong enemy, it will be a disaster for the Fighting Department.
Even if Zhang Ke had an ambiguous relationship with Shan Qianhui, he would not act so wantonly. This would not only be irresponsible to the Dou Department, but also easily put Shan Qianhui in danger.
The 'Xunjie Tai' has one government, two academies, eight ministries, and thirty-six departments. How difficult is it to find a good position for Shan Qianhui?
In fact, Zhang Ke has great expectations for Shan Qianhui.
If not for anything else, it is for his own creation of the ‘Taiyin Soul Draining Technique’.
From this method, Shan Qianhui derived three magical passage methods that amazed Zhang Kedu.
The 'Taiyin Danghun Dharma Curtain' can establish an independent forbidden area barrier, and this area can spread to a size of three thousand miles when a single Qianhui Yuanshen is in the realm.
Even when Zhang Ke was in the realm of Yuanshen, he was unable to construct such a large domain barrier.
‘Taiyin Xuanbing’ is a summoning-like supernatural power technique derived from ‘Taiyin Soul Draining Technique’ by Shan Qianhui.
The reason why it is said to be similar to the "summoning" technique is because this method can endlessly summon Taoist soldiers to fight.
However, this kind of summoning is not received from another world or the Kingdom of God established by oneself, but is naturally generated by the spirit of the world mixed with the vitality of heaven and earth.
In other words, as long as there is vitality of heaven and earth nearby, even if it is destroyed and killed, it will be endlessly generated again from heaven and earth.
And if you want to make the 'Taiyin Xuanbing' do this, you must rely on the power of the 'Taiyin Soul Drifting Array' sequence array.
This formation not only allows the countless "Taiyin Mysterious Soldiers" in the formation to communicate with each other and form perfect coordination, but it can also trigger the transformation of heaven and earth's inspiration and vitality, making the "Taiyin Mysterious Soldiers" endless.
After Zhang Ke returned to the realm, after observing Shan Qianhui's three divine passage methods through the 'Shadow Bead', he immediately exclaimed, 'Among all the warriors in the world, Shan Qianhui ranks among the top three'.
Zhang Ke even believes that if Shan Qianhui can become a Taoist master, no one in the entire Azure World will be his opponent, including himself, when it comes to the art of group warfare.
You must know that Zhang Ke now has millions of Taoist soldiers of different ranks.
However, due to some reasons, Zhang Ke did not assign Shan Qianhui a position in the "Xiantian Yiqi Nanzong", but only appointed her as the commander of the "Dou" Department in the "Xunjie Platform".
In order to prevent others from criticizing Shan Qianhui's strength, Zhang Ke sent four Zerg leaders to Shan Qianhui as guards.
Strength and ability are different. Some people are good at fighting, but not necessarily good at management, such as Bi Luo, Yu Fengtong and others.
Shan Qianhui is gifted with intelligence, otherwise he would not be able to understand the method of cultivation from an ordinary Taoist scripture.
She was very aware of the pressure Zhang Ke was under when he appointed her as the head of the Dou Department, for her own future, for Zhang Ke's trust, and to silence others.
During these more than 120 years, Shan Qianhui had commanded dozens of patrols from the Dou Department and experienced countless bloody battles.
His abilities were fully utilized, and with his extraordinary wisdom, he not only turned the tide many times and rescued many disciples of the sect, but also made a famous name in many realms with the blood of countless creatures from other worlds.
But Shan Qianhui also knows that the world of cultivation is a place that values strength.
Without strong strength as a backing, the four Zerg leaders alone cannot truly convince others of themselves.
Sixty years ago, the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect' finally refined three 'Good Fortune Chengyuan Nectars' after more than two hundred failures.
Don't think it's easy to successfully refine the elixir after more than two hundred failures.
You must know that the 'Xumi Illusion' set up by Zhang Ke can not only allow the disciples in the sect to accumulate combat experience, but also make various deductions.
Otherwise, how could things such as the 'Giant Divine Weapon' and 'Floating Aircraft' be deduced and refined so easily.
The same is true for the 'Good Fortune Chengyuan Manna', which involved countless failures in every step. Even so, it ultimately failed more than two hundred times in the actual refining process before it was successfully refined.
Zhang Ke suspected that the 'Vajra Sect' had hidden key elements in the formula of this elixir.
Otherwise, even if the 'Three Treasures Wishful Fruit' and 'Flat Peach' were given to the Vajra Sect, the sect's strength would not be able to refine the elixir.
However, although the 'Good Fortune Chengyuan Manna' has been successfully refined, it still needs to be tested to see if it has any specific effects.
After all, this is an elixir that no practitioner in the Azure World has ever taken, so who should try it has become a problem that troubles Zhang Ke.
One is that this elixir is too precious, and every time it is refined, countless resources and manpower are consumed.
If no threshold is set, the distribution of the elixir will become a big trouble. If you are not careful, it will create a gap in the hearts of the sect disciples.
Secondly, with the experience of successful refining, it will not be too difficult to refine it again. Many Dong Tianjun in the sect also hope to be more secure after getting real feedback before exchanging the elixir.
Based on these two points, although the three 'Good Fortune Chengyuan Nectars' were successfully refined, for a while, no suitable person could be found to test the medicine.
In fact, if Zhang Ke is willing, as long as he releases these three elixirs, it will be enough to make countless sects in the outside world squeeze their heads. It is not a problem to exchange them for innate spiritual treasures.
However, after more than two hundred refinings, there is not much left of the 'Three Treasures Ruyiguo' and 'Pan Peach', especially the 'Pan Peach', which can be refined three times at most.
When Ding Xiaoxiao did not return, the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect' had no way to obtain the 'Peach'.
Therefore, Zhang Ke was troubled by how to distribute these three "Nectar of Creation Chengyuan".
After many discussions with the sect's senior officials, they finally decided to give the three elixirs refined for the first time to the three people who had made the greatest contributions to the sect free of charge.
The first person among them is naturally Zhang Ke. Without him, neither the ‘Innate Yiqi Nanzong’ nor the ‘Good Fortune Chengyuan Manna’ would have appeared.
The second person is True Lord Fenghua. The ‘Giant Divine Weapon’, ‘Floating Flying Boat’, ‘Air Boat’ and other items all come from the ‘Magical Weapon Department’ under his control.
In addition, Zhenjun Fenghua also trained countless craftsmanship disciples for the ‘Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect’.
It can be said that 30% of the current development and growth of the ‘Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect’ can be attributed to Zhenjun Fenghua.
It was Zhang Ke who initiated the proposal to give the second elixir to True Monarch Fenghua, and no one in the family raised any objections.
In fact, there is another reason, that is, the life of True Lord Fenghua is approaching the end of his life, and Zhang Ke hopes that this fellow sect member who has made great contributions to the sect can be successfully promoted to the rank of Taoist Lord.
This is not only an expectation that True Lord Fenghua will continue to serve the sect, but also an affirmation of his selfless contributions over the past thousand years.
But what Zhang Ke didn't expect was that his move would actually make his disciples respect him even more.
True Lord Fenghua came from the Craftsman Sect, and was not a disciple of the Xiantian Yiqi Sect, but a disciple who later joined him.
After the elixir was successfully refined, many disciples in the sect also secretly guessed the ownership of the three elixirs.
Most of the disciples believed that Zhang Ke would distribute the elixir to his direct disciples, such as Bi Luo, Bai Shi, Xu Qingzhi, etc. Even Yuan Jinting, Yu Fengtong and others were included in the sequence of rationing the elixir.
But in the end, Zhang Ke gave such a precious elixir to True Monarch Fenghua.
It must be said that this decision surprised many disciples, especially those casual cultivators who had joined the sect for more than two hundred years. At the same time, it also enhanced countless disciples' sense of identification with the sect.
As for the third elixir, after repeated discussions, Zhang Keli overcame all opinions and donated it to the sect’s ‘Dan Dao Si’.
It is clear that the gift this time is not to an individual, but to the entire ‘Dan Daosi’ department.
In fact, some disciples in the sect are not convinced about the ownership of this third elixir.
In terms of its contribution to the sect, the Department of Alchemy and Taoism, which was established less than 400 years ago, is far inferior to other departments.
But what Zhang Ke values is another point.
The elixir "Good Fortune Chengyuan Manna" can only be refined by "Dan Daosi".
More than two hundred failures in refining the elixir have consumed resources that even the ‘Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect’ cannot afford.
It should be noted that every time a fairy medicine is refined, there are as many as 108 kinds of main medicines alone, and each of them cannot be easily collected.
If it weren't for the foundation left by the 'King Kong Sect' and Zhang Ke's trading platform like the 'All Heavens Immortal Alliance', with the foundation of the 'Xiantian Yiqi South Sect', it would have been impossible to carry out more than two hundred refining operations.
As long as these 'Alchemy Master' disciples pay more attention during the process of refining the elixir, perhaps there won't be so many failures.
Therefore, after thinking over and over again, Zhang Ke decided to give the third elixir to ‘Dan Daosi’.
At the same time, he also made a request as the head of the sect that the 'Alchemy Secretary' could recommend anyone in the department to take the elixir, but the sect had the right to veto.
And if the candidates recommended three times by the 'Alchemy Secretary' are rejected by the sect, the elixir will be sealed by the sect for a hundred years. After a hundred years, the 'Alchemy Secretary' can recommend candidates again.
In other words, this third elixir belongs to the 'Alchemy Division', but if it is distributed casually, the sect has the right to deny this person's qualifications to take the elixir.
This is also a kind of restriction imposed by the sect on the ‘Dan Dao Si’, otherwise, the ‘Dan Dao Si’ may become arrogant and arrogant.
In addition, Zhang Ke also clearly pointed out that in the future, for every twenty elixirs refined by the 'Dan Daosi', he will be able to obtain one.
After Zhang Ke’s explanation, the sect finally approved the ownership of the third elixir.
When Zhang Ke obtained a cup of 'Good Fortune Chengyuan Nectar', he immediately used the 'Sound Transmitting Bell' to summon Shan Qianhui back from his expedition in another world.
Shan Qianhui was only over 200 years old when she became a Yuanshen. By the time she got entangled with Zhang Ke, she was already over 1,000 years old.
It's just that age is a woman's biggest secret. No matter what Zhang Ke used, Shan Qianhui gritted her teeth and refused to tell her true age.
However, according to Zhang Ke's investigation, Shan Qianhui's age should be approaching her end by now.
Therefore, after getting the elixir, he immediately recalled it.
Shan Qianhui did not hesitate at all about whether to take the 'Good Fortune Chengyuan Manna' to test the medicine, nor did she say a word of thanks to Zhang Ke.
Although she is not among Zhang Ke's two Taoist companions, Shan Qianhui has already identified herself as his Taoist companion in her heart.
Since two people are of the same mind, why should they separate themselves from each other?
When the 'King Kong Sect' attacked, Shan Qianhui risked her life to attack the 'King Kong Sect' just because she was worried that Zhang Keqian would be angry with her. This shows her deep affection for Zhang Ke.
She took the elixir not to become a Dao Lord, but because she hoped to spend more time with Zhang Ke after becoming a Dao Lord.
Even if she couldn't see each other every day, as long as she could still see Zhang Ke, she would be satisfied.
For the sake of his future career, Zhang Ke did not let Shan Qianhui take the elixir directly.
Instead, he first allowed him to join the 'Church of the Wheel', where he obtained the Tiangang Wine Priesthood, and then took him into the underworld to join the underworld, where he obtained the position of a patrolling judge.
With such operations, coupled with the secret realm of the cave that Shan Qianhui controls, he has the "earth", "the earth" among the five Taoist ladders of "heaven", "earth", "human", "god" and "ghost".
The three channels of "god" and "ghost".
After he becomes a Dao Lord, and then completes the Hunyuan Body cultivation method, he can have the foundation to become a Dao Lord just like Zhang Ke.
Unfortunately, this is ultimately a trick.
Shan Qianhui is not proficient in the cultivation of the two channels of "god" and "ghost", and has not perfected the corresponding rules of the Tao and the laws of heaven in the Tao Foundation.
Therefore, although he was lucky enough to be promoted to the rank of Dao Lord after taking the 'Good Fortune Chengyuan Nectar', the three kinds of Dao fruits were never coherent and were always in a state of being both integrated and mutually exclusive.
And Zhang Ke has been using his own power to regulate Shan Qianhui's condition for the past sixty years.
But usually Zhang Ke would not close the various restrictions on the ‘Immortal Finger’ Peak, so Xu Qingzhi had a misunderstanding today.
At this moment, upon hearing Xu Qingzhi's inquiry, Zhang Ke showed a smile on his face and said with a smile:
"With another sixty years, I should be able to help Qian Hui sort out the Dao Fruit. By then, our sect will have one more Dao Lord."
Xu Qingzhi was overjoyed, seeing that the reconstruction of the Heavenly Court was imminent, and now there was an urgent need for Tao Lord to suppress the four directions.
Although Shan Qianhui had become a Dao Lord, Zhang Ke was also unable to leave due to her inability to stabilize her state, which in turn restricted her own strength.
Well, now, sixty years later, not only will Shan Qianhui be able to take action, but Zhang Ke will also be free to take charge of the overall situation.
Zhang Ke knows how busy the ‘Xunjie Tai’ and the ‘Xiantian Yiqi South Sect’ are nowadays. Unless something big happens, she is worried that the ‘Transmission Bell’ will not be able to explain the cause clearly, so she will not come here in person.
