Da Zaojun

After everyone handed over power at Laolong Mountain, Song Wuji introduced Xu Jia Zhenren.

"This White Bone Immortal is proficient in the Great Dao of Corpse Dissection, which can bring people back to life. He will be sent into the city to oversee the construction of the [Supreme Pure Life Creation Pool]. Once the Pure Life Pool is completed, everyone will have three chances to be resurrected."

"However, we must be careful next. If we want to establish a country, there will be other demonic paths, hungry ghost paths, and all sorts of evil forces that will turn against the human path and prevent us from successfully establishing a country and receiving its fortune."

"The nation-building ritual can only begin after the rebirth and reincarnation ritual has been completed."

The City God asked, "Three chances to be resurrected?"

Although he wanted to return to human form, he had to see how it went. After all, he looked down on ordinary mortals, but if he could obtain a Dao body, that would be great.

Next, Song Wuji took control of Hongzhou.

However, the Rakshasa Karma City, following the migration of karma, arrived in Hongzhou, and the entrance changed from the City God Temple of Taichang County to the City God Temple of Hongzhou Prefecture.

However, this place originally had many entrances, and the Taichang County City God Temple also retained an entrance.

Even after the "Net" was established, the Rakshasa Cause and Effect City became a center for the distribution of cause and effect, requiring the processing of a great deal of cause and effect information.

Now that the net of heaven and earth is centered on Hongzhou, the center of cause and effect has naturally shifted and changed.

Song Wuji sensed that the laws of Hongzhou Prefecture could only cover an area of ​​three hundred li in the surrounding area, or more precisely, a circle three hundred li long.

However, including Jianxin and Taichang counties, the surrounding area of ​​300 li is not entirely accurate.

We also need to repair the official roads, restore villages and towns, subdue the various secret realms, and obtain the secret realm tokens.

“Three hundred li is not a small area, but as the lord of the Ganpo region, the area that should be under his control is the Jiangnan West Circuit, the Ganjiang River basin, and the area around Poyang Lake, which is far more than three hundred li.”

There’s a long way to go!
Song Wuji then looked at the three newly added secret realm tokens in the prefectural city.

One of them is the secret realm for grain production, the Yunmeng Great Swamp Secret Realm, which they obtained after conquering a primitive tribe.

The Secret Realm Token is called [Wild Goose Feather].

Goose feathers are the main material for making arrows. In ancient times, people would go into the marshes to find goose feathers in order to pay their taxes.

Because these taxes are not in the form of money, but in the form of various materials, which are useful to the "national entity". On the contrary, if they were all turned into money, they would be easily embezzled, leading to a shortage of materials, price gouging during procurement, and a shortage of military supplies.

Goose feathers are a key material for making arrows.

Song Wuji shook his head slightly and thought to himself, "Yunmengze is so big, yet the secret realm token is only related to wild goose feathers. Perhaps there is far more than one secret realm token. It breaks the conventional concept that a secret realm only has one token. Perhaps this is a super-large dungeon."

The second token is called the [Mirror of Light], which was offered by the City God. Inside is a world of mirrors. When Song Wuji passed through the five trials, he encountered the Mirror God at the Mirror of Misfortune trial. The Mirror God wanted to repair the mirror and asked Song Wuji to go to the world of mirrors to find materials.

However, the Mirror World is an extremely strange and evil world. Given the favors of Master Xu Jia and Meng Po, Song Wuji only helped with the repairs and did not go to the Mirror World. But he did not expect that there was such a secret place in Hongzhou Prefecture.

The laws of the Bright Mirror Order represent the [Heavenly Eye], which can trace back to the time when something happened in the past. In fact, it is equivalent to monitoring and is used to assist in [Clear Judgment].

The entrance to the Mirror Realm is the government archives, which contains a large number of old cases and precedents. These cases make up the Mirror Realm, so although it is called the world of mirrors, it is actually the real world.

The truth of the real world may be concealed or hidden, but the mirror world records it. This secret realm is a world that conforms to the [Legalist Rituals]. You can enter the mirror world and see some fragments of the truth, that is, [Mirror Fragments]. Ultimately, you can piece them together to form a complete mirror, that is, [Mirror Restoration].

Song Wuji felt that this was in accordance with cause and effect and the laws of the Legal Family, so he asked the Weaver Girl to help manage this law.

The third secret realm token is called [Startled Cicada]. The cicada senses the coming autumn wind before it blows. This secret realm is related to another department, namely the intelligence department.

In Hongzhou Prefecture, there used to be an intelligence department set up by the emperor to monitor all officials, especially local officials. If they were not monitored, how could the emperor be deceived?
This secret realm also yields a ritual, but this ritual can only reach the eighth rank, not even the seventh rank.

Those of the ninth rank were called "Cicada Catchers," and those of the eighth rank were called "Cicada Scare Envoys."

It is precisely because of this ritual that those who follow it are able to repeatedly obtain information from demons and defend the city.

The Cicada Catcher and the Cicada Scare Envoy have two abilities: [Stealth and Concealment] and [Shedding the Cicada's Shell].

Cicadas spend the first seventeen years lying dormant underground, and in the eighteenth year they molt and grow wings, singing in the summer.

By remaining hidden and inconspicuous, one can reduce their own visibility.

When a cicada sheds its shell, it first dons a "false body," then leaves the false body behind while its true body emerges.

They usually make fake bodies out of the demon's flesh, using magical artifacts made from the molted body of a cicada, and wear them on their bodies.

In this respect, it is much stronger than the Beggars' Sect's [Creating Animals], and it is also similar to the supernatural power [Staff Release].

The secret realm was a place specifically for cultivating [Surprising Cicadas]. However, after the chaos caused by demons, the Surprising Cicada Envoys who emerged from this secret realm chose the human race's side to help kill demons. Before their death, they offered up the secret realm token.

Song Wuji's intelligence capabilities are indeed a weakness. Although the Tianluo Diwang has made up for this, it is not a professional organization. In contrast, the Jingchan organization is a professional organization and can even disguise itself as a demon.

Thinking of this, Song Wuji thought to himself, "These people seem to be very suitable for cultivating the Corpse Dissolution Dao. The original meaning of the Corpse Dissolution Dao is also about metamorphosis and shedding the mortal shell."

The decision was made immediately to send these cicada-catching officials and cicada-startling messengers to the White Bone Dao Palace to learn the White Bone Dao techniques.

They then incorporated all members of the Beggars' Sect into this Jingchan organization, essentially creating an intelligence department under their own control.

The Mirage Dragon took over the management on behalf of the bee spirit, Malt Boy. When the bee spirit was in the Jade Flower Garden, he took in many insect spirits and monsters, making them his ministers and adopted sons.

Using Guan Jingchan is just enough, and besides, Song Wuji took him in as a disciple, so he can be considered a direct descendant.

Previously, he hadn't been given any important tasks, but this time, the fact that he was given such a task excited the little bee spirit to no end: "Master! Leave this to me! I guarantee that you'll know exactly who eats and who poops at what time."

"No need for such details. The main thing is information about demons and monsters. Also, there is an inner demon calamity. There is no need to establish a country. It will probably occur when the cauldron is cast to suppress the human world's destiny."

"I have a vague answer in my heart, but you still need to explore it further."

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
