Chapter 1360: Chapter 590: Three Li Family Celestial Immortals (2)
The white-clothed woman, Wu Tianguan, saw the three people like this and couldn’t help but shake her head and laugh. She waved her hand and pushed back the top-grade Profound Truth Jade handed over by the plump-faced, small-eyed Initial Stage Perfection Celestial Immortal, and said:
"Since you have come to the Seven Cities Construction Hall to be Divine Mountain Warriors, hard work is naturally inevitable for you. However, you need not worry about the Celestial Officials of the Construction Hall making things difficult for you, as this hall is set up just to build the Seventh City of the Divine Mountain better, not to torture you!
As for this piece of top-grade Profound Truth Jade, it’s not necessary. Although my strength is only at the Late Stage of Minor Success, I have obtained some top-grade Profound Truth Jade before and do not lack such jade that can nurture Little World Origin and store treasures. If anything, what I’m lacking are those extremely rare Little World Origins and some precious treasures!
But you three, just being Initial Tier Celestial Immortals, it’s quite difficult to obtain a piece of top-grade Profound Truth Jade. The resources accumulated over hundreds of thousands of years may not even exchange for a piece of top-grade Profound Truth Jade!
This time, you three have already been penalized nine pieces of top-grade Profound Truth Jade, so I assume you don’t have much top-grade Profound Truth Jade left. Keep this piece with you for future needs!"
At this point, she glanced at several people present and asked:
"Since you are all here at the Seven Cities Construction Hall, please state your names and Cultivation Realms so that I can arrange suitable positions for you!"
The plump-faced, small-eyed Initial Tier Celestial Immortal and the other two tall and slim Initial Tier Celestial Immortals, seeing the white-clothed woman Wu Tianguan being sincere and not as strict as the City Patrol Guards, and not taking their top-grade Profound Truth Jade, all breathed a sigh of relief. However, thinking about the prospect of serving as Divine Mountain Warriors in the Seven Cities Construction Hall for 180,000 years, they could not help but feel depressed.
Among them, a tall and slim Initial Tier Celestial Immortal, bowed to the white-clothed woman Wu Tianguan and said, "Reporting to Wu Tianguan, my name is Li Changsheng, Cultivation Realm: Initial Tier Perfection."
The other tall and slim Initial Tier Celestial Immortal then said, "Reporting to Wu Tianguan, my name is Li Changshou, Cultivation Realm: Late Stage of Initial Tier."
The plump-faced, small-eyed Initial Tier Celestial Immortal showed a respectful face, bowed, and said, "Wu Tianguan, my name is Li Changming, Cultivation Realm: Initial Tier Perfection. You may call me Xiao Ming, and I will surely fulfill any tasks assigned to me on time, with quality and high standards."
Seeing the three reporting their names and Cultivation Realms, Lin Xuankong replied with his name and Cultivation Realm to Wu Tianguan as well.
The white-clothed woman Wu Tianguan, after listening to the four replies, nodded slightly and said, "Since several of you are at Late Stage tests or Perfection, your Cultivation is quite good. Soon, follow me to the second place of the Construction Hall to work under Rong Celestial Official!"
After speaking, she looked at the three, "You three all have the surname Li, and your names are so similar. It seems you come from the same sect or family?"
The three Initial Tier Celestial Immortals heard this and their faces darkened, even Li Changming, who had a lively personality with a plump face and small eyes, couldn’t help but have his face darkened as well, with a faint painful expression in his small eyes.
Among them, the tall, slim Celestial Immortal named Li Changsheng bowed, frowned, and said, "We are all from the Li Family in Maple Forest Valley of the Red Water Domain..."
The white-clothed woman Wu Tianguan, upon hearing this, paused her expression, then sighed and said:
"Although Maple Forest Valley’s Li Family was not considered a top-tier family in the East Ming Divine Continent at the time, it was quite prominent among various Human Race forces in the East Ming Divine Continent, having produced Cultivators like Li Yuhong at the Great Success Realm. Unfortunately... Millions of years ago, in the Immortal Demon War in the Red Water Basin, countless families, forces, and experts once famous in the East Ming Divine Continent fell to the same fate as your Li Family, declining ever since!
Regrettably, during that battle, the elites and strong of the Human Race, Demon Race, and Buddhist Sect all came forth, yet they were defeated by the powerful figures from the Thousand Illusion Celestial Demon and Ten Thousand Laws Celestial Demon clans!
The number of fallen and captured strong figures from the Human Race, Demon Race, and Buddhist Sect during that battle was massive!"
The tall, slim Celestial Immortal Li Changsheng frowned and said, "Since that Red Water battle, the elites of the Li Family were entirely eradicated, our territories lost, even our patriarch Li Yuhong was captured by the demon, Thousand Illusion Saint Monarch, leaving only these low Cultivation Li Family juniors scattered everywhere, struggling bitterly! Sadly, for millions of years, none of us struggling Li Family descendants have emerged as true powerful figures; forget reaching Great Success Realm, none even attained Minor Success Perfection or Late Stage of Minor Success! The deep-seated hatred of the Li Family, who knows how many years it will take to..."
While lamenting, the plump-faced, small-eyed Li Changming sighed and said, "Brother Sheng, don’t be so pessimistic! Though our Li Family descendants are scattered worldwide without any exceptional talents, perhaps in some years, among the dispersed Li Family juniors, someone might emerge as a remarkable strong figure, slaying hundreds or thousands of Celestial Demons from the Thousand Illusion Race, avenging our Li Family ancestors!"
Lin Xuankong listened to their conversation about the Red Water Domain and couldn’t help but think to himself:
So originally, millions of years ago, the Red Water Demon Realm was not the territory of the Thousand Illusion Celestial Demon Race,
It’s just because the Thousand Illusion Celestial Demon Race and Ten Thousand Laws Celestial Demon Race triumphed over the allied forces of the Human Race Cultivators, Buddhist Cultivators, and Demon Race during the Red Water battle that they occupied the Red Water Demon Realm...
It seems that in this Supreme Origin Realm, the Celestial Demon Race’s power is quite strong! But it’s unclear whether they possess a power sweep akin to the Profound Yin Demon Race in the Golden Dragon Immortal Realm; if the Celestial Demon Race indeed has such a powerful force, the time I might need to rescue Great Success Jade Bright Bodhisattva, Sect Leader Qiu of the Divine Dynasty Immortal Sect, and others would probably be very long!
As they spoke, they followed the white-robed Wu Tianguan, floating towards the inner side of the Seven Cities Construction Hall,
This Seven Cities Construction Hall is located at the edge of the Seventh City of Candle Dragon Divine Mountain, but occupies a vast area with numerous buildings. As Lin Xuankong and others flew through the many buildings in the air, they occasionally saw, on the ground below, groups of Cultivators busy working under the leadership of Celestial Officials of various grades! Some were organizing stones, others were engraving Array Patterns on specially prepared stones, and there were quite a few Cultivators watching at the Tripod Furnaces used for refining Immortal Artifacts...
If in the Golden Dragon Immortal Realm, without the peak strong figures of the Strongest Immortal Lord Level, even those ordinary Low-Grade Earth Immortals can easily build a magnificent city or set up a common Grand Array! After all, among the various Immortal Sects in the Golden Dragon Immortal Realm, there are special Immortal Techniques where mountains can be whipped into shape, and magnificent cities rise from the ground, enabling the Earth Immortals in the Golden Dragon Immortal Realm to build an ordinary grand city with a wave of the hand, completed within a day!
But the Supreme Origin Realm is different because, after countless years of nourishment by Supreme Primordial Qi, the ordinary rocks of the Supreme Origin Realm are extremely hard!
Even those busy Divine Mountain Warrior Cultivators, channeling their Primordial Qi and utilizing Immortal Artifacts to handle the Supreme Origin Realm stones, find it extremely slow and challenging, comparable to mortals handling Little World stones below! As for the meticulous work of engraving Array Patterns on treated stones, the Divine Mountain Warriors operate with even greater difficulty and slowness!
Handling these stones might rely on brute force, but engraving Array Patterns on the extremely solid stones cannot be done with pure brute force; for every intricate Array Pattern to be successfully engraved is no easy task. If any line goes wrong, it’s likely repercussion, possibly wasting the entire stone! Hence, those busy Divine Mountain Warriors dare not relax in the least, completely focused and tense!
The Celestial Officials of various grades overseeing many Divine Mountain Warriors occasionally stride among them, sometimes praising a few, sometimes reprimanding some, and those praised Divine Mountain Warriors are extremely delighted, while those reprimanded have faces go pale with panic!
Lin Xuankong, following several behind, observed the Divine Mountain Warriors working situation after a period and frowned secretly.
