Release of the fairyland blue bird, the witch said she couldn't stand it

Chapter 313: Is the 999th ring also part of the inner ring?

Dengxian Grand Hotel!
This place is located at the junction of the Heavenly Demon Domain, the Azure Ocean Domain, and the Mountain and Sea Domain.

To avoid unnecessary territorial disputes.

Previously, all three holy sites had tacitly chosen to shelve development, regarding it as 'no man's land'.

However, the Wan San Group is currently very powerful, and the Yaochi Holy Land and the Dameng Holy Land are more united than ever before.

Therefore, the wishes of the sacred mountain and sea site were completely ignored, and the Dengxian Grand Restaurant was located here.

As for why Jiang Chen chose to build the hotel here, instead of in bustling towns like Lin Yao City or Ru Yan City...

Ultimately, it's because this place is close to a sacred mountain and sea location, offering views of the ocean.
Well known.

Whether it's a sea-view room or a sea-view hotel, the price is incomparable to that of ordinary hotels.

Huang Wansan opened the passenger door of Jiang Chen's car.

The latter looked at the towering Dengxian Hotel with undisguised shock in his eyes.

"I go."

Jiang Chen, a native of Earth, was once again amazed by the architecture of the cultivation world.

What was once a desolate area at the intersection of three regions has now been developed into a dazzling spectacle of modern civilization.

999 floors.

It sounds like just an ordinary number.

But when you actually see it, it truly is "towering into the clouds"!

The Dengxian Hotel stands majestically between the blue sea and golden sand, its entire structure resembling a crystal sword piercing the clouds.

The sword's edge was adorned with runes of the [Nine Revolutions Universe Array], which dyed the clouds within a hundred miles into a gradient of gold and red.

The hotel's foundation utilizes the "Sumeru Mustard Seed Technique," a secret technique passed down by the Tiangong Pavilion, which allows nine floating auxiliary buildings to be supported on a foundation covering only a hundred acres.

Each annex is arranged according to the nine stars of the Big Dipper and connected to the main building by a transparent, magical rainbow bridge.

From a distance, it looks like nine stars slowly rotating around the sword-shaped main tower.

Furthermore, each annex building generates nine more magical rainbow bridges, extending to 81 islands in the distant sea.

The most stunning feature is the exterior of the main building.

The entire wall is made of "phantom sea crystal sand".

In the sunlight, it appears as a translucent azure blue, but at night it transforms into a sky full of stars, with each window becoming a "star" that twinkles with the moonlight.

Countless seemingly complex yet aesthetically pleasing flying tracks crisscross the sky.

It is sufficient to ensure that a million flying cars can run simultaneously without any pressure.

The area surrounding the hotel, which was originally barren hills and wilderness, has been transformed into a well-arranged garden of natural plants.

The exotic flowers and rare herbs transplanted from the Nine Realms bloom year-round under the activation of the array.

A wide "Star River Avenue" stretches from the hotel's main entrance to the border of the three regions.

The road surface was paved with specially made "stardust sand" provided by the Zhen family.

During the day, the sky is as clear as a mirror, but at night, a vast star map emerges, and every step you take creates ripples of starlight.

The Xinghe Avenue is lined with top-tier shops such as the Black Swan flagship store, Yaochi 4S store, and Wansan Pet Paradise.

The most eye-catching feature is the "Nine Domains Cross-border Duty-Free Shop," whose dome is made of 100,000 transparent crystal pieces that can project holographic advertisements of local specialties in real time.

The hotel's east side features a towering statue of three saints, standing over a thousand feet tall.

Jiang Chen is in the center, with the silhouette of the Holy Lord of Yaochi playing the zither on his left and the Holy Lord of the Great Dream wielding his brush in a splashing ink gesture on his right.

Fairyland?

The Celestial Realm is nowhere near as good!
The cultivation world is not incapable of constructing various luxurious and extravagant buildings.

It's just that their rigid thinking over tens of thousands of years prevented them from thinking of creating such a thing.

All previous industries and developments were created for the purpose of cultivating immortality.

This applies to both entertainment and romance.

But as long as you set an example for them, they will quickly understand and be willing to become engrossed in it.

Jiang Chen calls this situation "breaking free from the shackles of thought."

They become quickly fascinated by the element of "freedom" once they come into contact with it.

Huang Wansan took out a stack of reports and read them aloud:
"The building area of ​​our hotel, when converted, is equivalent to stuffing two holy sites upside down inside and still being able to stack three more Emei Sects on top of them!"

"The Guanghuan Sea Crystal Sand alone used up the production of the Yaochi and Dameng holy lands for hundreds of years."

"The Mountain and Sea Holy Land was so angry that they raised the price of crystal sand several times overnight, but they didn't say much else."

Jiang Chen suddenly pointed to the top floor:

"what is that?"

At the tip of the hotel, a magnificent miniature palace floated, with the words "South Heavenly Gate" inscribed on the plaque above the gate, and the faint sound of celestial music wafting from the cracks in the door.

"Oh, that's the Immortal Ascension Experience Hall built by the Heavenly Craft Pavilion."

Huang Wansan chuckled:
"It's supposed to be a surprise for guests, but you have to spend 999 million spirit stones to unlock the right to visit."

"Only Saint Lords or beings at the Saint Lord level, such as the Supreme Void Sword Venerable, can enter the main building."

"The annex can accommodate guests of a slightly lower rank."

"As for those small islands overseas, they have even more ingenious uses."

By the end, Huang Wansan's eyes even showed a lingering look, as if he had already experienced it.

“The 81 islands represent 81 resorts, each with its own unique style of hospitality. No matter how hard-hearted you are, you can always find one that suits you.”

"For example, Ecstasy Island, Lisboa Island, Flower Island, Beauty Island, Dual Cultivation Island, Gourmet Island, etc."

Huang Wansan also cited some temporarily vacant islands as examples.

For example, one of the buildings was reserved for the White Pigeon King, and the pets bred there will be placed on the Pet Island.

There is also an e-sports island reserved for Jiang Chen's dungeon, which has been internally tested but not yet publicly released.

Not bad.

very good.

Jiang Chen looked around.

Huang Wansan used Dengxian Grand Restaurant as the core, and spread his influence to the Seventh Ring Road, no, the Ninth Ring Road, through the external network.

A ring-shaped garden comparable to the Fairy Garden was built.

The closer you are to Dengxian Grand Hotel, the more expensive the room rate!

Unexpectedly, as soon as Jiang Chen stated his request, Huang Wansan smiled and thoughtfully explained:

"President, we're already working on that, but it's not nine rings, it's 99 rings, and according to the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Craft Pavilion, they plan to expand it all the way to 999 rings."

999 rings?
Jiang Chen was dumbfounded.

Not
Can't you guys just be human?

Where do 999 rings lead? Is that still within China?

Not only that.

Huang Wansan also made a special mention of it.

Ring 999 belongs to the inner ring.

More will be built on the outer ring road.

"999 rings belong to the inner ring."

Just thinking about it made Jiang Chen feel like his cerebellum was shrinking.

"Ha ha!"

Huang Wansan smiled smugly and said modestly:
"President, there's no need for praise. We're just trying to get more cultivators closer to the core area of ​​the Spirit Qi Continent!"

"You should know that this is the border between the two most prosperous regions on the Spirit Qi Continent, the Heavenly Demon Region and the Azure Wave Region!"

"Pay one fee and enjoy two different regional identities. By doing this, we're actually doing a good job for the people! They might even thank us for providing so many houses!"

"Thank you for providing him with a home where he can shelter from the wind and rain!"

Benefiting the people?

A song suddenly popped into Jiang Chen's head.

Thank you, because of you, the four seasons are filled with warmth.

"only"

Huang Wansan hesitated.

"If you have something to say, just say it."

"We are a bit short-handed. Even if we join forces with the two holy lands of Da Meng Yao Chi, it will probably be a long and time-consuming project."

Jiang Chen nodded.

That's for sure!

To highlight the superior nature of the inner ring road.

The Second Ring Road can't be too close to the First Ring Road, right?

It would take at least half an hour to drive there.

This distance is the radius between the first and second ring roads, and a "ring-shaped community" is planned with such a large radius.

The number of buildings that need to be constructed must be enormous.

This is still between the first and second ring roads.

With each additional ring, the number of buildings required increases dozens of times.

It is indeed a huge project.

"What if we develop it together with other holy sites?"

"Well, the Daoyan Holy Land has already made contact; they are willing to cooperate with us."

"Only the Dao Yan Holy Land?"

"Yes, the other Holy Lords haven't emerged from seclusion yet."

Has the Holy Lord not emerged from seclusion?
Jiang Chen frowned. Was this even a reason?

How could those elders of the Holy Land possibly give up making money for the Holy Lord?
"Where's the Demonic Path?"

"Sister Xiaonan's cult of maidens is willing to cooperate."

"Only the Cult of the Maidens?"

"Others"

Seeing Huang Wansan's hesitant manner, Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow:
"You didn't even ask about the rest, did you?"

"This subordinate deserves death!"

"Alright, inform the elders in charge of the major holy lands and the elders of the major demonic sects that we will discuss the real estate business together after Pingyang's wedding."

"wedding"

The trending topic of "Tiger Roaring over Emei Mountain in Pingyang" has disappeared.

Only the word "wedding" has been circulating in the Spirit Continent recently.

Many cultivators, especially female cultivators, feel a slight flutter in their hearts when they see the word "wedding".

strangeness.

I yearn for it.

sacred.

At the same time, it's like a tempting fruit, making them want to take a bite.

What exactly is a wedding?
Some people say it means marriage. But here's the problem.

What exactly is marriage?

These native cultivators couldn't understand.

After all, their previous process for choosing a Daoist partner was roughly as follows:

When a male cultivator approaches a woman and says, "I like you, let's be together," she replies "okay" or "no." The slightly more romantic response is nothing more than raising her hand and making a meaningless vow.

Now they are like a fish dying of thirst, with a pool of water right in front of them, but they can't reach it no matter what they do.

It's like a cat smelling fish, desperately trying to find the source of the smell.

They could only wait anxiously until Pingyang and Su Mengqing "got married" before they could understand what a "wedding" really was.

And in this atmosphere.

The word "wedding" has spread more widely, even carrying a hint of eeriness and oppression, as well as a sense of impending doom.

Even Jiang Chen has been somewhat uneasy lately.

This is the first wedding ever held in the cultivation world.

Will there be a wave of marriages among the female cultivators who already have partners after they see this?

at the same time.

At Jiang Chen's prompting, Wan San Wedding Planning Department began to intentionally or unintentionally release some information about the wedding.

For example, a wedding is a ceremony in which two people formally become husband and wife, symbolizing holding hands and growing old together.

And it's not like before.

After the male and female cultivators confide in each other and confirm their feelings for each other, that's enough.

Instead, we invite elders, colleagues (senior and junior students), and relatives and friends from both sides to the scene to witness this beautiful moment together.

At the same time, the invitees are also required to prepare a small gift for the soon-to-be-married couple to express their blessings to the newlyweds.

A banquet will also be held at the wedding to entertain the invited guests.

The newlyweds need to make a declaration of love together in the presence of relatives and friends.

So this is what a wedding is like?

The female cultivators understood, but it was a matter of not quite understanding.

Because it's obvious to anyone with eyes that the information provided by Wan San Wedding Planning is incomplete.

in contrast.

These revelations have only fueled the female cultivators' anticipation for the wedding.

at last.

Pingyang and Su Mengqing's accounts posted works at the same time.

They indicated that they would hold the most important wedding ceremony of their lives at the Dengxian Hotel in three days.

three days?

What is Dengxian Hotel?
soon.

Wan San Wedding Planning announced the details of this luxury hotel located at the intersection of three regions.

Wow? Things are progressing so fast?

[What's so fast about it? They genuinely like each other, and I'm dying to see it!]

Haha, this is a true case of lovers finally getting married, congratulations!

[By the way, are you guys going to deliver a gift? I think the Dengxian Hotel isn't too far from here.]

【Go! I must go. I, Master Tiaodan, will bring 80,000 spirit stones, to be recorded in the Haotian Sect's account!】

[Heh heh, my Ma family's Qidao Chang is always accompanied by a Panamera, put on the Blood Fiend Sect's tab!]

I'll contribute two hundred; put it in Li Daya's account!

[Li Daya: ???]

[Li Daya: If you're not my buddy, who are you?]

No matter how.

This wedding attracted the attention of almost every cultivator on the entire Spirit Qi Continent.

Even if many people weren't invited, that doesn't stop them from going to watch the fun, does it?
Although Wan San Wedding Planning stated that they would live stream the entire event, watching it on screen simply doesn't give you the same atmosphere as being there in person, as demonstrated by the previous two e-sports competitions.

As everyone gradually made their way to the Dengxian Hotel.

The towns surrounding the hotel were all overcrowded.

The Ministry of Transport issued relevant regulations and a statement overnight restricting [certain activities].
Announcement from Wansan Transportation Group regarding traffic control during the wedding at Dengxian Hotel

(Attached: Traffic control detailed map ×1, shuttle boat timetable ×1)

Note: This announcement is also being pushed to the #PingyangWedding# topic page on Douyin. For real-time traffic updates, please follow the "Wan San Government Affairs" mini-program.

[Official Seal] Wansan Transportation Group Co., Ltd.

This is the first time that an announcement has failed to achieve its intended effect.

Send it as much as you want.

We absolutely have to go!
They even insisted on driving a speeding car!
Isn't buying a racing car all about saving face?
With so many people at the wedding, wouldn't it be incredibly embarrassing for Yu Jian to go there?

Meanwhile, the commercial districts of several major towns are extremely busy.

Some shops that were not doing well on weekdays are now packed with people.

Restaurants like Rabbit Tea Princess, Niu Yishou Hot Pot & BBQ, and Little Chef Restaurant saw long queues.

Even luxury boutiques like Swan were packed.

"what!"

Mixue Ice Orange is the most affordable brand under the Rabbit Tea Princess brand.

The bunny girl, who was in charge of making lemonade, once pounded the mortar and pestle until sparks flew, and there was a mountain of lemons at her feet.

As for the iconic rotating ears?
By now, it had slumped down, just like her face.

The manager, who was working overtime on a PowerPoint presentation, rushed over in a panic.
"Nineteenth Sister! Another customer has complained about your service attitude! Smile, don't you understand?"

"If you can't laugh, go back to your cave on Rabbit Mountain and cultivate! If you can't do it, there are plenty of rabbits who can!"

"I only brought you out because we're cousins. I don't expect you to be grateful, but can you at least give me a break?!"

"Cousin, I really can't laugh, not since this morning."

"You use job titles when you're at work! Who's your cousin?!"

Nineteenth Sister looked aggrieved, then suddenly said:
"How about you go to Fire Refining Valley and ask them to make a device for our Bunny Tea Princess that can automatically crush lemons?"

Nineteen Sister had barely finished speaking.

Manager Rabbit covered his mouth tightly, and with a wary expression, whispered a reprimand:
"You don't want to do this anymore?!"

"I... I'm doing this for the good of our Rabbit Tea Princess."

Seeing everyone busy working, the manager whispered:

"Hehe, do you think your rabbit brain is very smart?"

"Didn't you ever think that if there were something that could automatically crush lemons, what would you be needed in the shop?"

"The store will give you a basic salary of several thousand spirit stones every month, plus a performance bonus of tens of thousands of spirit stones?"

"Eh?"

Nineteen Sister was taken aback, her ears starting to twitch around suspiciously.

Really?

My daily job is to crush lemons. The machine does the crushing, so what am I supposed to crush?
After taking another look, the manager reminded him impatiently:
"I hope you won't say such brainless things from your rabbit mouth again!"

"I'm not afraid to tell you, the kitchen chef at Niu Yishou once suggested that Huolian Valley design a machine that could automatically pluck the feathers, clean the chicken, cut it into pieces, and plate it. And guess what happened?"

"Did this food preparation chef get a promotion and a raise?"

"Haha~"

The manager sneered:

"A promotion and a raise? This food preparation master was a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. He used to earn tens of thousands of spirit stones a month, but he was fired after Fire Refining Valley developed the product."

"You got fired?"

Nineteen Sister was utterly shocked.

"Yes, he was fired. The machine was indeed very useful. The speed of one machine was no less than that of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. Moreover, there were no cultivation requirements for using the machine. Even a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator could use it. In the end, the Nascent Soul stage cultivator who earned tens of thousands of spirit stones was fired and replaced by a Qi Refining stage cultivator who earned a few thousand spirit stones to use the machine."

‘Gulu~’

Nineteen Sister swallowed hard.

She finally managed to get the opportunity to come to the big city, and she absolutely mustn't let her job be replaced by a machine!
Think of this.

She immediately smiled, feeling less tired from mashing the lemons and as if she had inexhaustible energy!

Pound it!
It's made by mashing lemons!
