Jiang Li and several senior leaders of Chongshan League walked into a magnificent white building.
It is located in the core area of the entire city. When you walk here, you can see that there are obviously many monks, but even the air has begun to become quiet.
Almost no one dares to make loud noises here.
Since the time scales of monks and mortals are different, and the events that take place at the Temple of the Gods are all major, ordinary forces may not encounter them even once every few decades.
So the hall is quite spacious and there is no need to queue.
Jiang Li took a look at the hall on the first floor. Even a floor tile was made of expensive spiritual jade material. Other objects, including tables, chairs and benches, had reached the level of magic weapons.
He is at the level where he can knock a flying sword away even by swinging a bench.
This Si Shen Temple is even more luxurious than the scene in the burial coffin at that time, where the ground was paved with spiritual stones.
“Hiss, if these pillars can be trained into magic weapons, it is not impossible to achieve the earth level!”
An elder couldn't help but exclaim.
Jiang Li then discovered that the entire Si Temple was supported by three jade pillars as white as mutton-fat jade.
After taking a look, even he was surprised.
The material level of that pillar is very high. Any piece knocked off from it can be used to make a ground-level coffin nail for the burial coffin.
But that wasn't what surprised him.
Instead, the patterns on the three jade pillars are cloud patterns, flame patterns, and wave patterns.
Jiang Li had seen that strange cloud pattern not long ago.
Putting their thoughts aside for the moment, they came to an empty counter.
"Hello!"
The female cultivator behind the counter also had the aura of a Jindan stage cultivator.
When he saw Jiang Li, he greeted him with a professional smile.
"I represent the Chongshan League and want to join the Sishen Temple. I come here to apply for the defense area."
Jiang Li directly stated the purpose of his visit.
"The Temple of the Gods welcomes you to join us."
After hearing Jiang Li's request, the smile on the female cultivator's face became more obvious. The situation in the war zone has been a little tense recently, and several sects have suddenly perished for unknown reasons. Now is the time when new blood is urgently needed.
"Please show us the token of your Chongshan Alliance."
Jiang Li took off his Chongshan Alliance Leader Order and handed it over.
The female cultivator reached out to take it, placed the alliance leader's token on a white stone slab, and began to record the identification information of the alliance leader's token.
"Please tell me what kind of environment you are good at fighting in, and we will try our best to arrange a suitable terrain."
"If your clan intends to apply for a medium-sized or larger area, you can also give priority to the remaining defense garrisons. Here are the topographic maps around several defense garrisons. You can take a look at them first."
The female cultivator worked quickly behind the counter, verified the situation of Chongshan League, and handed a stack of cowhide drawings to Jiang Li.
Jiang Li took it, glanced at it, and then handed the drawing to the senior executive behind him.
The garrisons on the blueprint were all in the coastal areas of the Eastern Region. The masked ogre that the entire Eastern Region needed to unite against should come from the sea.
These vacant garrisons were the sects that had participated in the war but were ultimately destroyed.
This kind of garrison was created only for war and has almost no production capacity, but once the overlapping formations are repaired, the defensive performance is indeed good!
The size of the medium-sized area is three to five times that of the small area. Although claiming these areas will give you a good foothold at the beginning, the pressure you will bear will also increase greatly.
Jiang Li and his team actually had a goal a long time ago.
He has a Thousand Spirit Ball in his hand. The mechanical city left behind after the Mo Sect was destroyed should be the most suitable choice for them among many areas.
In addition, guarding the medium area, although more stressful, can also accumulate merit faster.
The current Dachongshan can't wait too long.
"Everyone, this is your merit token. Please go there to garrison within seven days. From now on, you only need to bring the ogre's mask to the local Si Shen Temple headquarters to exchange it for merit."
Jiang Li nodded. The Si Shen Temple was very efficient, or perhaps the female cultivator was afraid that Jiang Li would go back on his word.
The procedures were completed directly at the fastest speed.
Jiang Li took the medal of honor. Unlike the Mo Men’s medal, the number on it was a bare zero.
This is the awkward part. If Chongshan League already has around 500,000 merits, then transferring the merits would not be a big problem.
But this bare zero would require the acquisition of 630,000 merits through annexation.
This is undoubtedly an abnormal situation and will attract a lot of attention. Even if they have Momen disciples to testify, it will take a long time to review.
After putting away the merit card, Jiang Li suddenly asked the female cultivator behind the counter a question.
"Excuse me, young lady, what do the cloud patterns, flame patterns, and wave patterns on the pillars mean?"
The female cultivator behind the counter took a look at the pillar that Jiang Li was pointing at and immediately understood what he meant.
"Well, it's normal that you don't know."
"Those are the three great pillars of our Si Shen Temple, the Yun Mansion, the Yan Dynasty, and the Hai Palace. They have not appeared in the world for a long time, so few young cultivators know about them now."
"But they have been protecting the three pillars of our Eastern Region's immortal cultivation world for thousands of years."
When the female monks talked about these three organizations, their expressions were full of admiration.
Jiang Li then realized that above the Sishen Temple and other top Sishen forces, there were three great divine pillars.
If so, then the token must have come from the Yun Mansion? But what exactly it was used for, and how the people in the Yun Mansion noticed it, were still unknown.
He sat at the tea table in the hall for a while, and then walked into the hall which was specially used to handle matters concerning meritorious service, until the time agreed upon in advance.
It was time for the staff inside to change shifts.
The original young monk left and was replaced by a monk who looked like a fat middle-aged woman.
After establishing the foundation, the cultivator will have the ability to adjust his body shape and appearance to a certain extent.
Therefore, unless one has practiced some special skills, cultivators with this image are relatively rare.
"You must be Madam Yu, right? We were introduced by Shopkeeper Jiang."
After everyone left, Jiang Li stepped forward and said.
The monks all had very good ears. The fat female monk obviously heard it, but she kept her eyes drooping and was flipping through the papers on the table. It seemed that she had no time to even look at Jiang Li and the others.
Everyone in Chongshan League exchanged glances, and finally an elder stepped forward and placed ten medium-grade spirit stones on the other party's counter.
The fat monk named Madam Yu glanced at the spirit stone on the table, put it away skillfully, and then raised her head reluctantly to look at everyone.
"Are you the small faction called Chongshan League? Lao Jiang told me what you want to do with me?"
This person's attitude is quite bad, but he needs help from others and it is impossible for him to take action in the Temple of the Gods, so he can only endure it for the time being.
"We, Chongshan League, have recently gained a new ally. We hope to merge our merits and make Chongshan League the main one."
It was Jiang Li's turn to step forward and place the two merit cards on the counter.
Mrs. Yu glanced again, and when she found the number on the medal, her small eyes suddenly narrowed.
She placed the token on a special stone slab and soon found out which sect the token belonged to.
The matter of Mo Men was no small matter, so it was reasonable for this fat female monk not to know about it.
He tapped his fingers on the counter, wondering what he was thinking.
After a moment, he looked up.
"This is not an easy matter to handle."
She used the technical term for bribery, which means trying to raise the price.
"Just tell me the number, and we'll do our best to make it up for you."
The foreign affairs elder then stepped forward and handed over another bag of spirit stones, which were filled with powerful spiritual fluctuations. This time, it contained top-grade spirit stones.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
This small bag represents a full 500,000 low-grade spirit stones! Madam Yu pointed with her fingers and continued tapping on the table.
Apparently that means it's not enough.
Jiang Li's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He stood behind and the foreign affairs elder with the best psychological quality came forward to negotiate.
Bag after bag, a total of one hundred and fifty top-grade spirit stones were placed on the table.
This amount is enough to buy several good items at the Wanyanglou auction house.
But Mrs. Yu still showed no intention of giving in.
The foreign affairs elder was hesitating, and Jiang Li stepped forward at this time and held down the foreign affairs elder's hand.
"Madam Yu, we in Chongshan League are a small family, so please don't bother me."
As he spoke, a breath of air escaped, and he was about to retrieve the three bags of spirit stones and two merit medals.
At this moment, the fat middle-aged woman reached out and pressed the spirit stone and token.
She glanced at Jiang Li sideways, then took all the things back into her arms.
"Leave it to me and pick it up in seven days."
After she finished speaking, she started waving her hands and chasing people out.
"Madam Yu, the process of this matter should not be long. The elders of the Mo Sect are all here. Why don't we do it today to avoid any more trouble?"
Jiang Li frowned. After receiving such a huge sum of money, the other party still wanted to wait for another seven days.
"Don't you believe me? I'll do whatever I say!"
Mrs. Yu's fat body began to release an aura, but to the top leaders of Chongshan League, this aura was actually nothing.
They still stood there without moving.
Although she didn't say anything, her meaning was very clear. Are we familiar with each other? Why should I trust you? After a moment of silence, she changed her eyes and restrained her momentum.
"Give me the token as well, wait outside for two hours, and then come back to find me."
After two hours, Chongshanmeng and others could barely accept this result.
Although he would rather the other party could do it on the spot, he still agreed, walked outside the service hall, and waited quietly.
But when Jiang Li was leaving the Meritorious Affairs Office, she inadvertently adjusted her hair.
A tough hair fell down and got stuck in the crack of the door.
The hall door is closed, completely isolating the sounds from inside and outside.
Jiang Li sat on a chair at the tea table in the hall, still feeling a little worried.
The so-called Madam Yu actually had very ordinary cultivation base, only at the Xudan level.
But it is said that she has a good husband and a good son, which is why she has such a good job in the Temple of the Gods.
Due to the identities and strength of those two people, no one would bother her as long as she didn't do anything too excessive.
Therefore, over the years, she has abused her power for personal gain, deliberately hindered the affairs of other sects and forces, and demanded spiritual stones and treasures.
Her continued success made her more and more bold and unscrupulous.
These were not a big deal. Even if they were cheated out of 1.5 million spirit stones, they had to bear with it, at least until they joined the Temple of the Gods.
But looking at the fat woman's expression, Jiang Li always felt a little uneasy.
He sat in a chair and closed his eyes.
The Heart Sutra of Avalokitesvara has quietly started to operate.
The world of hearing gradually covered all his senses until it reached a certain limit, and then he left his body as if his soul had left his body.
In the Temple of the Gods, if you use active detection methods such as divine sense detection, you will be discovered immediately.
But Jiang Li just strengthened his hearing and passively received sounds, so it was not easy to be discovered.
His voice perspective moved quickly and soon arrived at the door of the Meritorious Service Office, but was blocked outside by the safe soundproof door.
Fortunately, Jiang Li was prepared, and the hair stuck in the middle was not broken, so the slight vibration could still be transmitted through it.
The sound perspective followed the hair into the office room, and everything inside was very blurry, because there were too few sounds to reconstruct.
"I... have... a big deal... come on time... those idiots are still... waiting... three million... hurry up..."
The intermittent voices made Jiang Li angry.
Human greed will never disappoint anyone.
That monk who looks like a fat middle-aged woman is planning to have the best of both worlds.
They took the spirit stones from Chongshan League, but did not do anything with them. Instead, they tried to sell the 630,000 merit points to others through illegal operations, which they were good at.
She felt that with her status, the matter was already settled and as long as she didn't admit it, a small force that had just gotten lucky wouldn't be able to do anything to her.
With just one transfer, one and a half million can become four and a half million, so why not do it?
"Humph! That... kid from the important... alliance... is so... disrespectful... This is... their small punishment."
After putting down the communication spirit stone, this obese Mrs. Yu actually found an excuse for herself.
But if Jiang Li had not stopped it at that time, the result would probably be that three million spirit stones were taken away and then he was sent away for seven days.
By the time they come to the door, they may not even be able to see this person! Shopkeeper Jiang was right, this person's appetite is really big.
Jiang Li released the Guanyin Heart Sutra and came back to his senses, then walked up to the female cultivator who had helped them apply for the war zone.
He took out the cloud pattern token from the storage bag, waved his hand to unlock all the seals, and placed it on the counter.
"Hello, I want to see your boss."
