"Which one should we choose?"
Song Lin flipped through the catalog.
Heavenly Grade Blessed Land Spirit Prohibitions typically have to do with certain rules and regulations; they are extrely expensive.
For example, Cave Heaven Blessed Lands with a ti flow rate of ten to one require an annual rent of fifteen million dharma coins.
Or Heavenly Phenonon Blessed Lands, which transform the climate suitable for Qi Refining and Spirit Stabilizing, naturally evolving Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.
Song Lin spent quite so ti browsing and roughly narrowed down his selection to three blessed lands and one spirit prohibition.
Low Grade Purple Qi Blessed Land, Low Grade Earth Lungs Yin Evil Blessed Land, Low Grade Primordial Gathering Qi Blessed Land, and Thousand Poison Miasma Spirit Prohibition.
The first one was to be sent to Cultivation Truth Temple, as Purple Qi Blessed Land gathers purple qi every sunrise, dramatically enhancing a cultivator’s cultivation speed.
The second, along with the spirit prohibition, would be sent to the newly constructed Taoist Temple.
The third would go to Donghua Temple.
"Original price is six hundred thousand dharma coins annually, but since you hold the Refiner qualification, we’ll charge you one hundred thousand dharma coins per year. Additionally, we’ll offer five hundred Yin Soil and two hundred spirit fields as extras."
"Thank you."
One hundred thousand dharma coins annually was not considered expensive.
Earth Evil walked to the three dharma altars, holding a blank peachwood jade plate, chanting prayers. Using his finger like a sword, he drew and wrote on the wooden plate.
"Disciple sincerely invites the Three Elents Emperor, Nine Heavens Mysterious Energy, for the descent of Heaven’s Essence Qi, and bestows Yunzhou ilin County Blessed Land Spirit Prohibition..."
Buzz!
Suddenly, from the dim Long Night Platform, a strand of golden light descended.
The golden light fell onto the plate, leaving rows of golden characters, which included Song Lin’s na, official title, location of the granted blessed land, and an additional official certificate.
The Dharma Master was Earth Evil, the receiver was Song Lin, and his rank was ilin Three Mountains Master of Qi.
"Take it."
Earth Evil handed the plate to Song Lin.
"After you return, prepare a Dharma Assembly. Once it’s completed, the blessed land will manifest. The control of the Spirit Prohibition over the blessed land is in your hands. You may revoke the blessed land at any ti. As long as the lease isn’t expired, you’ll simply need to reconvene the altar to reassign it."
"Understood."
Song Lin couldn’t help but sigh; the Taoist system in this world was truly stringent.
Everything could be regulated—even natural phenona required fees.
Song Lin had studied beforehand; most blessed lands were naturally ford by Heaven and Earth, rely consolidated and redistributed by the Taoist School.
Only a very few were artificially-created blessed lands.
If one were to anger the higher-ups of the Taoist School, your entire Taoist Temple Jungle could be turned into barren land in a heartbeat.
Fortunately, air wasn’t charged.
Song Lin mocked himself internally, then left the place.
Don’t underestimate the fact that it’s a Low Grade Blessed Land. Ordinary Taoist Temples really wouldn’t have one, at most benefiting from the Taoist School’s friendly donation of Yin Soil.
Yin Soil contains Yin energy, ideal for cultivating ghosts and corpses, or planting certain yin-natured flora.
Spirit fields have broader applicability and are suitable for growing Spirit Grass.
Ordinary fields cannot grow Spirit Grass, making these two types of land essential for any Taoist Temple.
After returning, Song Lin ordered everyone to establish a dharma altar.
Preparations were made to cast spells and bless the land.
The process of setting up a dharma altar held nothing noteworthy—rely a complex series of rituals.
When the ceremony was completed, the jade plate emitted four golden beams, flying in different directions to Yin Mountain, Cultivation Truth Temple, and Donghua Temple.
As the golden beams rged with the ground, no dramatic phenonon occurred.
Several breaths later, everyone sensed that the surrounding Heaven and Earth Essence Qi had multiplied at least by a factor of two.
"Alright, the blessed lands of the new Taoist Temple are set. You should promptly arrange the population and establish the Taoist Temple. Ensure normal operations within a year, then report to the court and Taoist School."
The newly-developed county town had nearly entered a regular rhythm, allowing the results to be reported to the Taoist School.
Song Lin had asked Earth Evil earlier about a county town with a population of ten thousand residents plus its Taoist Temple, which could roughly earn thirty thousand yin rits.
Add to that the process of mountain-clearing, temple-destroying, and exorcising demons.
One newly-established county town and Taoist Temple could yield a total of forty thousand yin rits.
Including the thirty thousand-plus yin rits from the existing Taoist Temple, setting up approximately three more would suffice.
Considering how vast Yin Mountain was, conducting more such activities should help et the target before the ten-year deadline.
"From this point forward, I won’t be involved in the execution. Proceed cautiously."
Song Lin planned to further separate the Divine dium Immortal Skill Vein and the Taoist Soldier section.
This ti, Shi Yinhua and Wang Ziyue wouldn’t independently lead Taoist Temples; they’d instead be handed to disciples in the Divine Establishnt Period.
The new Taoist Temple would combine Gu Technique, Thunder Mansion Ghost Soldiers, and Rampant Soldiers.
The geographical conditions of Yin Mountain were also favorable for practitioners of the Divine dium Immortal Skill Vein.
A Magic Vein grows and branches in this manner. So only inherit portions of knowledge; only the central jungle contains the entirety of a Magic Skill.
Though not yet fully independent as a jungle, Song Lin was already managing it in a jungle-like manner.
Using Donghua Temple as the nucleus, all resources were centrally coordinated. Even talismans for Divine Establishnt Period disciples were personally granted by Song Lin.
However, unlike a legitimate Jungle Taoist Leader, Song Lin’s granting of talismans was rely ceremonial and unrecognized. These needed periodic submissions to Xuanyu City’s Commandery Office for official approval.
This thod was sowhat tedious, but they preferred avoiding Zhengsi’s presence, disdainful of aligning with them.
Having arranged these tasks, Song Lin then entered the narrative world.
Jinling Palace, Heart Nurturing Hall.
Song Lin opened his eyes.
It had been roughly half a year since his last entry.
Song Lin summoned Mr. Zhuge, Ma Jiefu, and others.
"Is the political situation stabilized?" Song Lin asked.
"Personnel in various regions are mostly in place, and vacancies have been filled."
"The Firearms Camp has also been independently established. Currently, there are thirty thousand Firearms Soldiers."
With the addition of five thousand Taoist Soldiers and the enhancents from Qionghua Sect’s spells, the production rate recovered rapidly.
At present, Xuan Country’s military force exceeded four hundred thousand.
"The Ghost Festival approaches, the Ghost Gate will open. I will venture to the Netherworld and return for the northern campaign."
Song Lin resolved not to delay further.
There wasn’t much of value in this world apart from the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top technique—anything else remained uncertain.
It was said the Ei Sect possessed an Immortal Sword, but Song Lin’s Emperor Seal had not yet been fully activated, and the Immortal Sword might not surpass the Emperor Sword.
If no deeper secrets existed in this world, Song Lin couldn’t afford to linger aimlessly.
He planned to expedite map progression, summon the Emperor Sword, and suppress this realm.
Reclaim Shenzhou and achieve complete transcendence.
Three days later, Song Lin, accompanied by Ma Jiefu, rode the Sun God Car to Taishan.
Taishan now fell under the jurisdiction of Jing Country, forcing Song Lin to conceal himself and travel covertly.
Soon, he arrived at Taishan, waiting for an opportune mont.
Ei Mountain Golden Summit.
Chenhua bathed in Golden Summit Golden Light, which resembled fireworks. The eight-colored sword qi on his body was gradually dissolved by the light.
After so ti, the sword qi dissipated completely, and Chenhua’s pallid face regained his color.
"Phew! The Everlasting Lamp Fla truly lives up to its reputation as the world’s greatest treasure!"
He exhaled deeply, finally recovering from his previous injuries.
As he ca to his senses, he noticed three elderly Taoists with white hair standing before him.
"Supre Elders? Why have you co?"
"An on has been revealed to us by the Upper Realm Master Bai i!"
The middle Supre Elder’s expression was stern.
"What?"
"The Heavenly chanism has shifted. We must expedite our progression and eliminate the anomaly!"
"Is the anomaly Song Lin?"
"Indeed, Master Bai i has personally issued the decree."
"A re Song Lin—Supre Elders are more than sufficient. Why would Master Bai i also intervene?"
Chenhua was puzzled.
Master Bai i, the founding patriarch of Ei Mountain, had long ascended to the Upper Realm. He rarely conveyed ssages—sotis not even once in centuries.
"This Song Lin... may truly be the True Heavenly Son!"
