鹤鸣山，昔日俞庆府大邑县崔家养鹤之地，高山耸立，松柏异奇，有仙羽茶和洗羽果在此生长，其有利鹤妖成长并且有利于武者修炼鸟兽武学。
Two years ago, he and other families attacked and killed the magistrate of Dayi County during a struggle, which angered the imperial court. The other three prefectures sent troops to quell the unrest and purged all the forces, big and small, in Yuqing Prefecture.
Furthermore, as a form of punishment, taxes were levied for three years. In a short time, apart from those who had already heard the news and fled, only a group of people in Yuqing Prefecture remained, suffering in dire straits.
It was at this time, when Yuqing Prefecture was in turmoil, that Yuanshi Daoren suddenly appeared and fought against other families that came to sweep through Yuqing Prefecture. He set up a arena at Heming Mountain and fought for seven days and seven nights, defeating hundreds of enemy martial artists. His move, Boundless Qi Palm, deeply suppressed and killed many martial artists of the fifth and fourth levels, making him famous.
Afterwards, he made a pact with the garrison commander of Tianhan Prefecture, Zhen Jinghou, that he would not be defeated in three moves, and took over Dayi County and the Heming Mountain area, thus establishing the Five Pecks of Rice sect.
The reason it's called "Five Pecks of Rice" is simply because joining a sect requires paying five pecks of rice, which is expensive for the people of Dayi County at the time. But it is precisely because of this that joining the sect seems so sincere.
The golden summit of Crane Cry Mountain, once the nest of the Crane King, has been transformed into a golden palace, surrounded by peach trees and falling cherry blossoms amidst a thin, misty haze.
The Primordial Daoist stood on the Tianyuan Earthen Pavilion, which he called the Creation Pavilion. Various mysterious runes were imprinted on it, and streams of various colors floated around it, mixed with the breeze, the flowing water, the mountain and earth energy, and all sorts of ethereal things that could be called Qi.
It is essentially the flow of all things in the world, and also the aggregation of various information concepts based on matter. This is the way Dao Chengyi explores this vast universe with the help of the Gu Cauldron.
It was through this exploration that the Niu family, possessing the remnant flesh of the demon god containing the power of that pharmacist, along with numerous wind-controlling demon beasts and martial arts, finally found the avatar of the Primordial Daoist, who primarily cultivated the Dao of Qi.
In the early stages of the Gu Dao, the power of one person is ultimately limited. In order to prevent the Gu Dao from slipping out of control in the future, it is a safe plan to have an avatar walk in the open while the main body remains hidden in the background.
As his name suggests, Yuanshi Daoren was tasked with creating the Heavenly Court, replacing the Xinsu Dynasty, and turning this planet into a base for plundering resources from the universe, in addition to cultivating the Dao of Qi.
Yuqing Prefecture was the place he chose. Firstly, the court was willing to accept the people's grievances there. Secondly, he could take over the credit for resisting the invasion of the Nine Yue after Daochengyi used Houbian to massacre the Qing Mang.
At most one year, the fruits can be harvested, and the arrival of the extraterrestrial demons will probably be within the next three to five years. It is just unknown what kind of civilization and attitude the extraterrestrial demons will have.
Regardless, the news of the extraterrestrial demons will give the Blood Lotus organization, which already advocates going to the stars to seek the power of the alchemists to elevate their race, a significant boost.
This is also an opportunity for the Xinxiu Dynasty to take advantage of the chaos and build a world-saving ark to soar through the stars. The sage is determined to create a great cause that will last for ten thousand generations, and the pace that has been stagnant for many years is probably hard to stop now.
The Primordial Taoist was pondering the chessboard of the world, with clouds and mist transforming into a sand table before him, displaying various changes as he sought the right opportunity to incite the Five Pecks of Rice Sect to rebel.
"Disciple Nanhua greets Master!"
The mountain path was rugged, and there was no road leading up from the summit. However, for skilled Qi cultivators and martial artists, this height was as simple as a bird spreading its wings.
Since its founding, the Five Pecks of Rice sect has suffered heavy casualties from the ravages of the other three prefectures, resulting in the Yuanshi Daoist having only one direct disciple to date.
"Congratulations to Master on attaining the fourth stage of enlightenment! May your longevity achievements advance even further!"
Nan Hua sensed the aura of the Primordial Daoist that was as deep as the ocean and as vast as the sea, and felt the trembling of the Qi Dao Gu worms in his body. He bowed again with joy. Two years ago, his master resisted the Marquis Wu with his third-stage body. Today, the fourth stage has been determined. The Five Pecks of Rice Sect is finally no longer limited to a county!
"The success we have today is all thanks to you, Zhang Ling, and the entire sect who have worked day and night to gather the Qi of Heaven and Earth and collect materials for the Gu Dao. Thank you all for your hard work."
Today's fourth transformation proves that the choice made back then was not wrong. After seeing hope amidst suffering, he used the enslavement method to influence and serve as a slave, working day and night to assist tens of thousands of people throughout the county. His cultivation of Gu Dao has also made great progress.
Of course, this is also because he is an avatar of the Dao, and is transformed from the remnant flesh of a demon god, so he has a special physique and can cultivate quickly.
On the Bloodwing side, apart from Niu Anxin and Zhang Erhe reaching the peak of the third stage, the others are still in the early stage of the third stage or stuck in the second stage.
These two individuals have committed thousands of murders in the past three years, totaling tens of thousands to date. They are born with true bloodline essence and are demonic overlords.
"If it weren't for the teacher's self-sacrifice to build the Primordial Qi Wall, half of the 30,000 people in Dayi County would probably have died. What are a few days of hard work compared to that?"
"Now that Master has emerged from seclusion, I, your disciple, will report on the progress made over the years."
Zhang Ling, the magistrate of Dayi County, was a true disciple of Yuanshi. He and Nanhua were interdependent. In the past two years, in order to promote the Five Pecks of Rice sect and to fulfill Yuanshi's vision of universal harmony, destroy Xinsu's idea of establishing a heavenly court, he has been accumulating grain, having many children, and diligently training troops.
The population of Dayi County has now recovered to 56,000, with 20,000 soldiers engaged in farming and warfare. Through close training and close communication, they can be considered an elite force.
In addition, the training of various Taoist soldiers, talismans, and martial artists has also made great progress. It can almost be said that they are waging war. If it weren't for the grain that Yuanshi keeps getting from somewhere, Dayi County would have collapsed long ago.
"It's not enough, but we've tried our best in terms of time."
