Chapter 411: Immortal Capital
Xu Qiuqian continued to read.
After the Heavenly Dao performed a miracle, it required the Yi family to offer sacrifices to the Heavenly Dao once every ten years.
If the offerings were small and the Heavenly Dao was not satisfied, it would take back the Life Tree and the Sacred Beast and choose other forces. Therefore, the Yi family offered almost 70% of their income to the Heavenly Dao.
When the Yi family first obtained the Life Tree and the Holy Beast, they treated the Holy Beast very well, treating it almost like the clan leader. Moreover, the Holy Beast was not chained and could enter and exit any part of the Yi family at will.
There are hundreds of attendants serving the holy beast.
Although the Holy Son is just a mortal, the Yi family still treats him with caution, and the Holy Son and the holy beast are treated almost the same.
The sacred beast born under the Tree of Life was grateful for the kindness shown by the Yi family.
On one occasion, the holy beast sensed the confusion of the patriarch at that time and used his magical powers to help the patriarch.
The clan leader treated the sacred beast better after that. During that period, the sacred beast was even treated better than the clan leader. However, the Yi family was not yet strong at that time and faced internal and external troubles.
Even if one problem is solved, there is another.
So the holy beast frequently used its magical powers to help the Yi family. As the scales on its body changed from beautiful emerald green to dull gray, its physical condition became worse and worse.
But the Yi family has already tasted the sweetness.
Seeing that its physical condition had become so bad, so bad that it could not even use its magical powers, it asked the Son of God to communicate with the Heaven and pray for its guidance.
After communicating with the way of heaven, a sacred beast was born again under the tree of life.
This newly born holy beast received all the attention of the Yi family. Just like the original holy beast, it was brought up in love. As for the holy beast whose scales on its body turned into gray to help itself, no one cared about it long ago, and it was not allowed to run around in the Yi family.
It stayed alone in a remote corner of Yi's house.
After the new little holy beast was finally born and the Yi family leader finally waited for it to reach adulthood, he showed an embarrassed and painful expression in front of the holy beast, just like before, and told him how difficult it was to manage a family.
The sacred beast had long regarded him as its master, and offered to use its magical powers to help him.
Thus, with the help of the sacred beast, the Yi family grew bigger and stronger, and its reputation in the Xiyue Continent became more and more famous.
Later, a cultivator heard about the Yi family and asked them to let the sacred beast help him, offering a spiritual vein as a reward. The Yi family agreed, and things got out of control from then on.
The scales of the sacred beast turned gray at a speed visible to the naked eye.
If it turns completely gray, the sacred beast will also die.
But at that time, more and more monks knew about the holy beast of the Yi family, and more and more forces from all sides came to the Yi family, cooperating with the Yi family and trying to please the Yi family. How could they stop there? The Yi family forced the holy beast to use its magical powers again and again.
When the scales of the sacred beast were about to turn completely gray, the Yi family asked the Holy Son to communicate with the Heavenly Dao.
At that time, the Yi family was still a little nervous, afraid that Heaven would blame them, but Heaven said nothing, and a sacred beast was born again under the Tree of Life.
But this time, the Yi family didn’t want to wait for the sacred beast to grow up.
So they began to study ways to make the sacred beast grow quickly.
At this time, the Yi family also learned that the sacred beast had appeared in other places in Xiyue Continent. The head of the Yi family guessed something and believed that the sacred beast might not be a gift from heaven, but an extremely rare spiritual beast that never appeared in the world.
But they just pretended not to know and still claimed that this was the companion beast of the Son of God.
As for the sacred beasts in other places, suitable reasons were also found.
Later, the ripening medicine was finally produced, and they used holy beasts that appeared in other places to test the medicine. During that period, more than a dozen holy beasts died due to the testing of the medicine.
But Tiandao asked nothing and said nothing.
He even told them that as long as one of the Holy Son or the Holy Beast died, a new Holy Beast would be born under the Tree of Life.
So the Yi family went to greater lengths, and after producing the ripening drug, they developed a more accurate method of guidance from destiny, which was to pluck out the scales of the sacred beast and fuse them with the blood of the person who wanted to be guided by destiny.
The Yi family finally got what they wanted and possessed great power and a high status in the Xiyue Continent.
When Xu Qiuqian saw this, she found it even more ridiculous.
If it is really the way of heaven, why do we need those offerings? But the Yi family believes it firmly.
No, maybe it’s not that I believe it firmly, but that I have to believe it.
They cannot give up this so-called thing given to them by heaven, so they not only have to believe it, but also make everyone in Xiyue Continent believe it.
She continued to look down.
From the few words given to them by Tiandao, the Yi family learned that Tiandao was in a place called Xiandu.
At that time, the ancestors of the Yi family had actually already suspected that this way of heaven was not that way of heaven.
The ancestors of the Yi family once tried to find the immortal city.
Later, I actually found out some news about Xiandu.
According to the historical records of the Yi family, their ancestors once learned from a monk that the monk had seen a mirage-like city in the sky over a certain sea area. The Yi family speculated that this mirage-like city should be the immortal city where the "Heavenly Dao" was waiting.
It's pretty obvious by now.
This is not the true way of heaven.
Xu Qiuqian already knew this, so she wasn't too shocked.
However, when she continued to read down and saw the name of the monk who once said that he had seen Xiandu, her pupils shrank.
Yuanshan Zhenren.
Distant mountains...
The Taoist who wanted to kill her was called Yuanshan Taoist.
This record was made eight thousand years ago.
Could it be that this Yuanshan Zhenren and Yuanshan Daojun who wanted to kill her are the same person?
Xu Qiuqian hurriedly continued reading.
But after that, the Yi family had no more records about this monk.
The historical records after this are not much more useful.
Xu Qiuqian expanded his spiritual sense and glanced at the Yi family disciples outside. Some of them had already woken up.
She put all the records of the Yi family into her storage ring, then took out the teleportation scroll and left the Yi family's territory with the little Tianyi beast.
When we came out of the Yi family's territory, it was already completely dark outside.
The place where she landed was the teleportation array of Zei Island.
As soon as she was teleported out, she saw a large group of people surrounding the teleportation array. Most of them were formation masters, and Master Shishui was also there.
"Friend Xu, you finally came out!"
Seeing her come out, the formation masters breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Qiuqian was puzzled: "Are you waiting for me?"
"yes."
"Waiting for me to do what?"
Shisui Shinjun came over and coughed, "I don't want to discuss the next teleportation array with you."
To be honest, although Xu Qiuqian has stated that this matter will be put aside for the time being and that the people in her organization will not be asked to come or leave in the short term, they are still a little uneasy.
Afraid that Xu Qiuqian would change his mind.
So after coming out, everyone waited at the teleportation array without any prior agreement.
Hearing this, Xu Qiuqian felt helpless.
"Isn't the next teleportation array in three days?"
