Tianshi Mansion, Songhe Cliff.

As Liu Zhaoye's body and the clothes of Qu Han and Gao Jing were sent into the cave between the cliffs, and as the thick covering of earth fell, sealing the cave where the three auxiliary heavenly masters were buried, a sound of wailing and weeping suddenly came from the entire area below Songhe Cliff.

Fang Jian stepped on the blue sky and personally scooped up the sand to seal the shrines of the three Tianshi assistants. Then he turned around and looked at the disciples of Tianshi Mansion who were crying loudly below, as well as the relatives and children of the three Tianshi assistants.

Fang Jian stepped down from the clouds and landed beside Liu Yu, who was in mourning. He glanced at Zhang Huan in Liu Yu's arms, and then stood in the first row of the crowd.

Everyone was crying for a long time until Ding Zhongyuan came to Liu Yu and whispered a reminder. Only then did Liu Yu realize that this was not the time to cry.

Liu Yu quickly suppressed his grief, wiped away his tears, and then walked to the front with Zhang Huan in his arms. He turned around and said to the crowd, "Everyone, please accept my condolences."

As Liu Yu started to speak, the people present gradually stopped crying and looked up at him.

Liu Yu said, "The three Heavenly Masters have passed away, and the entire Heavenly Master's Mansion is in mourning. But before they passed away, they handed over all the authority of the Heavenly Masters, who assisted the Grand Heavenly Master, to Master Hongqing. Now, please, Master Hongqing, recite a eulogy for the three Heavenly Masters."

Afterwards, Liu Yu said to Fang Jian, who was in the first row of people, "Master Hongqing, please come in."

After saying that, Liu Yu came down holding Zhang Huan, and Fang Jian bowed to Liu Yu, then walked to the position where Liu Yu had been, and then spoke under various complicated gazes.

"Assisting Heavenly Masters Liu Zhaoye, Qu Han, and Gao Jing: their moral integrity is immeasurable, their achievements are remarkable. They continued the great work of past Heavenly Masters, and established a name for themselves in the Daoist altar that will endure for thousands of years. They tirelessly educate and enlighten sentient beings, striving to save all living beings without hesitation. Despite the hardships of life, they maintained a noble and pure heart. Despite difficult circumstances, they maintained a heart filled with compassion. Despite the great adversities they faced, their achievements shine like the sun and the moon, their virtues benefiting heaven and earth. Future generations, countless people, will forever celebrate their great virtues for generations to come."

After listening to Fang Jian's brief eulogy, all the disciples burst into tears again, and only the seven chief priests looked at each other in bewilderment.

At this time, Master Hongqing gave the three auxiliary celestial masters enough face. Among the merits that Fang Jian mentioned, if the three auxiliary celestial masters could accomplish two of them, they would not be in this situation today.

However, the dead are the greatest, and from Fang Jian's point of view, the arrangements made by the three auxiliary celestial masters before their death are worthy of some praise.

After reciting the sacrificial text, Fang Jian spoke again, "When the three Heavenly Masters passed on the Heavenly Master's Mansion to me before they left, I made it clear that I would not take their positions. When the Outer Dao True Demon is destroyed in the future, whoever deserves to take the position of the Three Heavenly Masters will do so. I am now in charge of the Heavenly Master's Mansion as the Inspector of the Three Realms, assisting the Grand Heavenly Master by order of the Heavenly Court. From now on, you can call me 'Master Hongqing' or 'Daoyou'. I just want to say one thing: now, we are Daoyous. Our common enemy is the Outer Dao True Demon and the Divine King Palace, not our own Daoyous!"

"I can understand how you feel, being trapped in this corner of the East Continent. The world outside is vast, so don't just focus on fighting for power and profit in this corner. Do you know how many worlds like the Haolan Realm there are outside the Haolan Realm?" Fang Jian asked loudly.

No one could answer this question, because among all the people present, very few had been able to leave the land of Donglu since they were born.

Fang Jian turned and pointed at the boundless expanse behind him, the thousands of mountains and ridges, and said: "Do you see this sand? The worlds outside are more numerous than the sand on this earth! Each world is colorful and full of chance and opportunity. Fellow Daoists, you should not be trapped in this small Haolan Realm. In other words, in this Haolan Realm, your highest achievement is only the 'Golden Immortal'. However, if you want to reach a higher realm, you must leave the Haolan Realm. Have you met the four

"Ancestor Heavenly Masters? I know you haven't seen them, but you can think about it. One day in the future, when you leave the Haolan Realm, you will be able to see the four Ancestor Heavenly Masters! You can even see the Taoist immortals and the Taoist Patriarch Taishang Laojun!"

When Fang Jian said this, the breathing of all the young disciples present became rapid, and their faces turned red with excitement. Only the relatives of the three Fu Tianshi showed surprise.

At this time, Fang Jian said again: "You may be wondering why I am saying this at the funeral of the three auxiliary heavenly masters."

Fang Jian turned around and pointed at Songhe Cliff, but it was not the place where the three auxiliary heavenly masters were buried, but the tens of thousands of caves on Songhe Cliff.

"There are not only three auxiliary Heavenly Masters here, but also all the Heavenly Masters, Chief Priests, and elite disciples who have passed away since the establishment of the Heavenly Master Mansion. Don't they want to leave this world and see the wider world outside? They want to, and they are more ambitious than you are now. But they can't, why? Because the sentient beings in the Haolan Realm are still enslaved by the God King Palace and are still bewitched by the external demons. They have fulfilled their responsibilities, and their hope lies in you!"

"Exterminate all the heretic demons in the Haolan Realm, destroy the God King Palace in the Haolan Realm, and let all the beings in the Haolan Realm return to the right path, so that the beings in the Haolan Realm can enjoy peace. By that time, you can carry the hopes of the generations of martyrs of the Tianshi Mansion, leave the Haolan Realm, and rush towards a wider world!"

"So, don't cry! We should be sad for the deaths of the three Heavenly Auxiliary Masters. But what's the point of being sad? You're crying and grieving here, can you cry the heretic demon to death? Can you cry the death of the Divine King Palace?"

"No! You must cheer up. The sand can bury the bones of the martyrs, but it cannot bury their righteous spirit and ambition!"

"You must inherit their legacy and pave the way for the future of Tianshi Mansion!"
