Tianjian Sect, Sword Questioning Hall.
Palaces and buildings, yellow tiles and red bricks, and exquisitely crafted reliefs are everywhere. Magic swords float in the air, representing the prosperity of the world and the magic of the immortal way.
This is the meeting hall of the Tianjian Sect. Most of the sect's affairs are decided here on weekdays, which also invisibly affects the direction of the entire Qi region's political decrees. Sometimes the Tianjian Sect needs the cooperation of the government, and sometimes the government needs the Tianjian Sect to complete certain things.
As time went by, the recovery of heaven and earth intensified, and the conflict between monks and the government was no longer as sharp as it was at the beginning.
There are three reasons. First, the power of the cultivator is growing stronger and stronger, so strong that the government can no longer ignore it, let alone suppress it.
Second, the monks who possess great power have an impact on society, and society needs another group of people with great power to suppress them.
Third, the number of local monks has increased sharply, and they have now formed a group that holds considerable voice.
Facts have proven that as long as one abides by the rules, there is no one who cannot integrate into society. The original conflict was largely due to the unfamiliarity between the two sides, and a small part of the struggle for power. Monks are now an indispensable part of society, and no one is clamoring to kill all monks anymore.
The elders of the Tianjian Sect gathered together, including three reincarnated beings who had recently reached the Jindan stage, two local cultivators who were about to break through the Jindan stage, and one who was a permanent staff member of the government.
"The reason I called everyone here is because I just received an urgent message from the Sect Master."
The elder with the highest cultivation level has long hair and beard, a sharp gaze, and looks to be at least 80 years old.
In fact, his body is only 50 years old, and this appearance is what he looked like in his previous life. Like most practitioners, few people will keep the appearance of this body. Even if they recognize the original blood relationship, they will change their name and appearance.
There is only one reason to do this, to stay true to yourself and leave no loopholes.
The Great Elder was one of the Jindan who had participated in the previous operation to kill the Demon Abyss, and he was also the elder of the Sword Immortal. Now that he had reincarnated, he naturally burst into tears when he saw the Sword Immortal in such a graceful manner. It turned out that they were not wrong back then.
The only regret is that the sword immortal left a flaw because of Li Hua, but now it seems to be perfect.
These are all off-topic. The key point is the message from the Sword Immortal, which says it is extremely urgent.
A ray of spiritual light appeared in the hands of the great elder, and he said, "The sect master needs the most precious natural treasures of the Tianjian Sect. The more the better. It would be best if we could find spiritual roots of heaven and earth."
The people present were suddenly in an uproar. After confirming that the news was correct, they began to discuss it among themselves.
"It's not that easy to find the spiritual roots of heaven and earth. We in the Heavenly Sword Sect don't have any of them."
"What does the sect leader want to do with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root? Is he about to break through?"
"It's possible. Although the current environment doesn't allow the Nascent Soul to exist, there are exceptions to everything. Before, the spiritual energy was so dry that the heaven and earth wanted to absorb the magic power from us, but the sect master was still able to break through to the half-step Nascent Soul. Now that the spiritual energy has recovered a little, it should be possible."
"But wasn't it confirmed before that we couldn't break through? The Heavenly Dao is gone, the laws are missing, and someone has to complete it."
"The point is not this, but how to get the spiritual root of heaven and earth. I remember Qin had one some time ago, and there was a problem with the transplant."
Spiritual roots of heaven and earth are hard to come by, and in the current environment there are many but extremely rare. This is mostly because compared to the cultivation world, not one has appeared in thousands of years. Now there are only a handful of known ones in the world, and these are the ones that have appeared in the past 10 years. The cultivation world would never dare to think of it.
"We must satisfy the Sect Master no matter what." The Great Elder spoke up to suppress the discussion, "Elder Jin, I remember that the government should have some extremely precious natural treasures."
Elder Jin is a middle-aged man in his 40s who only has the skill of Qi Refining. The main reason he can reach this position is because of his government background.
He was stunned for a moment, then said: "Indeed, there are, but these natural treasures cannot be touched. Some still need to be cultivated, and some have been promised to Zhao Di. Now there is a quasi-heavenly spiritual root."
Quasi-heavenly spiritual roots are not yet heavenly spiritual roots, but they have the potential to grow to that level. Heavenly spiritual roots grow from spiritual creatures, and very few of them reach the level of heavenly spiritual roots at birth.
Qi does have a few seedlings, but they are all being cultivated in order to maximize profits.
The Great Elder said, "Please help me apply to the temple."
You have to apply to find out whether you can pass it. With the Sword Immortal's current status and achievements, isn't it worthy of him to get the Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth?
"Okay." Elder Jin took out his phone and started contacting the Prime Minister's office. After a few minutes, he hung up.
"The higher-ups said they want to discuss it. If possible, we will do our best to meet the Sword Immortal's requirements. After all, this is a spiritual root of heaven and earth. Even if it is a quasi-spiritual root, it is still a major strategic resource. The necessary procedures cannot be omitted. I hope you understand."
"I understand." The elder did not show any dissatisfaction, let alone anger. After interacting with mortals for so long, he has gradually become accustomed to and understood the operating logic of the modern government.
We also know how to deal with them. In modern times, there is a trick called compromise.
"This message was sent from Zhoudi. Perhaps, the Sword Immortal will stay there for a long time."
Elder Jin took out his phone again and called the Prime Minister's office.
"Hey, sir, the sword master is in Zhoudi...Okay, I will make arrangements and will not let you down."
After hanging up the phone, Elder Jin said, "The higher-ups have agreed."
The last time the Sword Immortal proposed to live in Zhoudi, the Prime Minister was so frightened that he settled down in Tianque Mountain. The Sword Immortal was like their pillar of support. Without the Sword Immortal, the officials in the temple would not be able to sleep at all, fearing that another big devil would suddenly appear.
