After destroying the deed from six hundred years ago, Master Qingli took out another map.

He drew a circle around a large area around Xuefeng Lake and said, "My two Taoist friends, please take a look!"

Li Qing and Sang Yuwan looked at the same time and found that the other party had separately marked out many surrounding areas including Muhunyuan and Qixingtan.

"What do you mean, sir?" Li Qing's mind moved.

True Man Qingli said with a smile: "In my Great Zhou, although there is the imperial court and the Xuan Palace to rule the world, there is no suppression of Jindan forces like us."

"The Taoist Lord has previously set rules for us to rule over some of the territories and also to help guard some special areas."

"During these days, first Fellow Daoist Sang formed the elixir, and then Fellow Daoist Li built the blessed land. Naturally, we have to shoulder this responsibility as well."

What he meant was that these territories would from now on be transferred from the jurisdiction of Yanling Valley to the names of the Sang and Li families. As for how they were divided between the two, he had no say in that.

Li Qing and Sang Yuwan looked at each other and bowed together: "Thank you very much for your kindness, Master, and your clan."

Seeing that they were not pretending to refuse, Master Qingli nodded and smiled, then pointed to three points on the map.

"As a Jindan force, we enjoy the right to govern, but we also have to bear obligations. You two Daoists need to pay more attention to these designated areas."

Sang Yuwan frowned slightly: "Please give me some advice, Master."

True Man Qingli said: "In my cultivation world, there are some dangerous places that have been passed down since ancient times. They are full of twists and turns and are very ominous."

"For example, this Muhunyuan, Brother Li should have seen it before..."

Li Qing nodded: "I did observe it closely, but I didn't go deep into it. I just provided some help to the Zheng family."

True Man Qingli said, "Under the Muhun Abyss, there is actually a relic of the ancient battle between good and evil, and it is full of dangers. When Daojun went down there, he was only able to suppress it, but was unable to eradicate it."

Sang Yuwan was surprised: "Didn't they say that it was caused by the battle between immortals and demons a thousand years ago?"

Qing Li shook his head: "In the battle between immortals and demons, the strongest person who died was only at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. They are all dead, so even if they are causing trouble, how can they be a match for the Taoist Master?"

"That fight was just a trigger to disturb the ancient ruins buried deep in the ground."

Li Qing frowned: "Then the Zheng family guarding Muhunyuan is equivalent to settling down in the crater of a volcano, right?"

Moreover, according to Li Qing's observation, the Zheng family had no idea about the details of the matter. They only knew that Taoist Chi Xiao had gone down to investigate.

Qing Li said: "Yes, that's true. But the practice of Zheng family's skills all rely on this kind of place where wronged souls gather."

"Besides, the Zheng family is actually the descendants of the tomb keepers of the ruins after the ancient war. If we really ask them to migrate away, I'm afraid the whole family will die suddenly."

Li Qing and Sang Yuwan could not help but remain silent.

Qingli didn't care about that and pointed out two other places of land to the two of them.

These are two second-level secret realms that can only be entered by those at the foundation-building stage. They exclude the power of the Lord of the Blessed Land, the third-level physical cultivator, and others who are at the level of the Dan Formation Stage.

There is a place at the junction of Qixingtan and Cuiyun Peak, which produces a third-level spiritual fruit called "Netherworld Fruit".

This fruit grows on a Netherworld Fruit Tree. The tree seems to be polluted and has grown a human face with a vicious temperament.

True Man Qingli said helplessly: "Before the establishment of the Great Zhou, the Great Yun Kingdom that ruled this area once sought the skin of a tiger and reached an agreement with this fruit tree for human sacrifice."

"So this tree is very stubborn. Every time a foundation-building monk enters, half of them will be devoured by it to produce fruits." "And half of these fruits will be given to other survivors as rewards for the secret realm. It seems fair, but in fact it is just bait for baiting nests."

Sang Yuwan said in a deep voice: "This is a method of the devil!"

True Man Qingli nodded: "Yes, it is indeed a magic method. But that is a second-level secret realm, but the Netherworld Fruit Tree has the strength of a quasi-third level."

"After the establishment of the Great Zhou, Daojun and the late emperor investigated many dangerous places in the country, but they were helpless and could only seal off this secret realm and let Yanling Valley guard it."

Li Qing suddenly realized: "No wonder I have never heard of this secret realm, it turns out it has been banned."

Master Qingli pointed to the second secret place, which was located near Xiyu Mountain.

"This secret realm is similar. There is a wild beast in it that is equivalent to the peak of foundation building. It is said that its temperament is very simple. All cultivators who enter it can receive its gifts."

"But a thousand years ago, a demon monk infiltrated it and fed it blood demon pills, hoping to refine it into a blood beast."

"Unexpectedly, the beast became extremely vicious and actually bit the demon cultivator to death. But since then, the beast has gone mad. Among the foundation-building cultivators who went in, only one out of a hundred can come back alive."

Sang Yuwan frowned and said, "Then what are your requirements for us to guard these two secret realms?"

True Man Qingli said: "There is no need to intervene directly in Muhunyuan, just send someone to keep an eye on it. But the entrances to the other two secret realms need to be guarded by foundation-building cultivators or cultivators of equal combat power."

"Whenever the secret realm is opened, one of the two Taoist friends must be present to preside over the sealing formation and expel any cultivators who stray into the realm."

"In order to keep it secret, we need to make them sign a secrecy contract, or even use other means to erase their relevant memories."

After Master Qingli finished the introduction, he took out two jade talismans and two booklets and handed them to the two men.

"This is the key talisman of the sealing array. It can be used to suppress the secret realm and the invading enemies at the same time. The booklet contains a detailed introduction to the two secret realms."

Sang Yuwan and Li Qing looked at each other, and finally took the jade talisman and booklet.

Sang Yuwan said: "If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. These three territories are handed over to us."

Li Qing also said: "Power and responsibility are equal. Since we have enjoyed the offerings from these lands, we should naturally do our part."

True Man Qingli said happily: "That's great. I will ask my disciples to come and negotiate the subsequent handover matters."

He looked at Li Qing and said, "I am quite curious about the green lotus seeds grown by you, and the flying fish in the sky. Would you be honored to stay in this Kunpeng blessed land for a day or two to broaden your horizons?"

Li Qing was certainly not willing to do so. After all, if such a strong man stayed in his old nest, many things would be difficult to deal with.

But he couldn't chase him away, so he smiled and agreed: "You are too polite, sir. The lotus seeds were sent by you, so you can come and see them anytime."

"As for those in the sky, they are called manta rays. If I call them flying fish to their faces, I'm afraid they will get angry."

Master Qingli couldn't help but smile: "They are quite similar to these two little things beside me."

The two Taoist boys who had been sitting upright beside him couldn't help but pout when they heard this.

One of them said, "Grandpa, you are speaking ill of us again."

Another said, "We were so well behaved today, and you didn't even praise us! Humph!"

Li Qing's eyes flickered as he realized that these two little guys didn't seem to be human! (End of this chapter)
