Chapter 341 The Game (1)
When Ji Rong returned, in the Shoudao Palace, Jiao Jue was already waiting for her, his claws bare, coiled up in the main seat.
Now He lacks a large throne to place His body and the four cubs that are always clinging to His back.
After all, this authority is now in a fixed form, unlike before when it could take on a mimicry form.
You can sit on it, but the thought of a big dragon sitting on a small dragon is just indecent.
But if He were merely standing or sitting, He wouldn't be able to uphold His dignity as the supreme deity.
While Ji Rong was busy with the construction of Xingluo Plain and Tiexie Mountain, Qing Guanzi went to the back mountain of Longfeng Palace to rest his stomach, while Jiao Jue slipped away to Danxue Mountain Range to look around for materials.
He looked around, but was not satisfied!
Moreover, during his travels through the mountains, he realized a serious problem: the cultivation gap in his Danxue Mountain Range was widening.
Over the years, many old cultivators at the Emperor Realm have died of old age, and few of the new generation have become Emperors, let alone the Supreme Saint. Even Tang Yan, who followed Him at the beginning, is now severely weakened and can no longer fly easily.
A sense of poverty welled up in Jiao Jue's heart once again, so he turned and flew back to Shoudao Palace.
Upon seeing Ji Rong return, Jiao Jue pointed at the little dragons on its body with its claws and said, "Colorful Bird, what do you think I should use as a divine throne?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Rong wanted to say, "Brother, you have four powers, you can sit on any of them."
But when she looked at the four little dragons clinging to the horned jade like cubs, she abandoned the idea. Her eyes lit up and she had an idea. She said, "Big brother, what do you think of those jade pillar artifacts we saw at the Nine Provinces Banquet?"
Jiao Jue immediately squinted and shook his head, saying, "That's a magical tool commonly used by the laborers and servants of the dragon class. As a god, how can I use such a crude object?"
Ji Rong flapped her wings and flew to Jiao Jue's side. She sat down with a thud and spread her wings in front of Jiao Jue's face, saying, "But the big pillar can hold the most dragons."
"Brother, you possess the resources of the Danxue Mountains, and your cultivation and status are both high. If you were to embrace frugality and start using the Great Pillar, perhaps in the future, all beings of the dragon, bird, and beast classes would take pride in wielding the Great Pillar as a magical artifact."
Jiao Jue squinted and said, "You said I am rich in the Danxue Mountains, so why should I advocate frugality?"
Ji Rong grinned and said, "Because your Danxue Mountain Range is currently shattered, you still need my beautiful colorful bird to help you."
"Don't worry, brother. Once we've transformed the Danxue Mountains into the second most sacred mountain in Central Continent, we'll be able to enjoy thirty-six dishes at every meal again."
Jiao Jue opened his eyes and glanced at the boastful Ji Rong, then said in a very cooperative manner, "This beautiful colorful bird cultivator, I want thirty-six dishes now."
Upon hearing this, Ji Rong immediately raised her head high. She went into the inner room and took out thirty-five bowls and plates, placing them on the table. She then selected thirty-five items from the food that Qing Pingzi had prepared for her and put them in the bowls.
She then took out a pot of broth and placed it next to the bowls and plates. After finishing these preparations, Ji Rong slowly spread her wings towards Jiao Jue and said smugly, "Big brother, hurry up and eat some."
As soon as Jiaojue opened its mouth, its four smaller creatures opened their mouths and began to eat and drink heartily. Jiaojue only ate eight dishes before it stopped eating.
He took out his enormous storage ring, squinted, and sighed, "Colorful Bird, since I met you, my cultivation has increased, my lifespan has lengthened, and my status has risen, but this storage ring has never been rich again."
You said you wanted to build the Danxue Mountains into the second immortal mountain in Central Continent, when will it be completed?
Ji Rong stood up, spread her wings and said, "The Danxue Mountains are in dire need of reconstruction. At the current pace, it will take at least another forty years."
As she spoke, Ji Rong lowered her head and thought for a moment, then said, "Brother, have you seen any fox spirits who have attained immortality in the Danxue Mountains while you have been patrolling the mountains these days? If we could capture a few of these powerful cultivators to do hard labor, it would shorten the journey a bit."
Jiao Jue shook his head and said, "I heard that once this fox attained immortality and left its name, it vanished and I have never seen it."
Ji Rong said knowingly, "No wonder. If he were still here, we could keep this immortal cultivator as a laborer, and the progress would be much faster."
Upon hearing this, Jiao Jue had an idea. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Colorful Bird, you always said that it's better to rely on yourself than on the gods."
I don't know when the Mountain and Water God will appear. Although I am not in a position to exercise power, Guan Shan is an earth dragon and is skilled at managing underground water veins. Could you invite him for me?
Over these forty years, we'll first clear the water veins, then you can slowly connect the spiritual veins, and I'll fill in the potholes in the ground. If we work step by step, the mountain range will become smoother, and perhaps it won't take forty years at all.”
Ji Rong's eyes darted around, and he said, "Since you're not afraid that Senior Brother Guanshan will find out about the mine, then I'll give it a try."
Having said that, she took out Qing Guanzi and said with a smile, "Senior Brother Guanshan, do you ever feel that life is long and boring, and want to find some fun to make life more interesting?"
Upon hearing this, Qing Guanzi raised his head and said, "Junior Sister, tell me quickly, how do we make merry?"
Ji Rong said, "Senior brother, don't you love chasing after things the most?"
Now that you've been lying in bed for months, you must have gained weight again. Let me, your junior sister, accompany you in some training, playing a game of chase, and while we're at it, we can connect the water veins inside the Danxue Mountains, how about that?"
Upon hearing this, Qing Guanzi immediately lowered his head and snorted, "Junior sister, if you want to fool me into going through mountains and rivers, just say so. Why do you have to make it sound like you're having fun? Aren't you ashamed?"
Jue Jun is also a dragon, and a true dragon at that. This Danxue Mountain Range originally belonged to Him, and He is quite obedient to you. Wouldn't it be better to let Him do this job?
"Even if all else fails, we can let Qingshao do it. Although I'm an earth dragon, I don't like eating dirt."
Ji Rong had no expectation that a few words would be enough to win over Qing Guanzi.
This senior brother is neither particularly greedy for money nor power; he just has some hobbies of eating, drinking, and having fun. It's impossible to get him to do dirty work without paying a price.
Ji Rong then knelt beside Qing Guanzi and said, "Isn't it because you are the only earth dragon in the world, Senior Brother?"
It's fine to let the sweet potato clear the water veins on the ground, but if you let her go into the soil, where you can't see clearly and can only smell the soil, she won't have any sense of direction and might even drill more holes in the mountain.
Before Juejun attained godhood, although he was also a water dragon, he had the power to bring rain, so he was able to barely manage to get through.
However, Senior Brother Guanshan, the Source Pool is now dry. If we were to ask Him to exercise His power, it would be extremely costly, and He might even lose a portion of his lifespan. It's not as convenient as the way we did by drilling in.”
As she spoke, Ji Rong regretfully spread her wings and said, "Senior brother, if I were a soil insect, I would do this work myself, but even if I put these sharp feathers outside and go into the ground, I still wouldn't be able to tell which way to go."
Now, in these mountains, you are the most suitable person, Senior Brother.
Then, Ji Rong placed his wings in front of his chest, making a heart-wrenching expression, and said, "Senior brother, as long as you do it, I will give you all the source streams I have treasured."
Qing Guanzi turned his head to the side, and just as Ji Rong craned his neck to see his expression but couldn't see it, thinking that Qing Guanzi was still unmoved, Qing Guanzi spoke up: "How many do you have?"
Ji Rong was overjoyed. She immediately focused her mind, took out a small pot from her spiritual lake, and said, "That's all."
