In the future, Earth becomes a relic of the mythical era.

Chapter 217 Tickets!

The surrounding area.

Bai Shenji, in conjunction with Bai Shitong, had a projection of a person appear in his mind's eye.

This is a higher level of access for Bestone, allowing direct remote "video" communication.

Activating it is simple: just spend money, a lot of money.

"Mr. Jing has also been reborn into the Domain Realm?"

The person opposite me was actually the reincarnation of the World-Governing Artifact.

The fact that the other party came to him surprised Bai Shenji.

Jing Shiqi smiled and said, "Things have changed. Right now, this domain is more important."

"Oh?"

Bai Shenji's mind raced.

Jing Shiqi is someone who works for important people, and the things that important person needs to do are no ordinary matters.

He's just a tenth-level domain realm cultivator, yet he managed to put aside his important matters and reincarnate into this realm?

He thought about the recent rumors and began to speculate.

He couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Mr. Jing, could it be that the Federation wants to cooperate with the Great Zhou? It doesn't seem like something that would warrant your personal involvement, does it?"

"With that person's power in the Thirty-Sixth Heaven, even if the Great Zhou could enter it, they probably couldn't compare to him. Why bother?"

Jing Shiqi smiled and said, "You shouldn't know this, but the Lord has allowed me to reveal some information to you so that you will serve him wholeheartedly."

"The Great Zhou Domain has a very deep connection with a certain Desolate-level Domain, and the Empress of Great Zhou is not as simple as she seems."

"Not only is he a Grand Mage, but he also has a very high probability of knowing the path to the Desolate Realm."

Wilderness level!?

A huge wave of emotions surged within Bai Shenji.

The Ten Directions level and the Wilderness level seem to differ by only one level.

But in reality, it's the difference between heaven and earth.

The most fundamental difference is that only in realms of the Wilderness level or above is it possible for "immortals" to exist!
Becoming an immortal is the ultimate pursuit of all cultivators.

But this pursuit is illusory.

Only in realms of the Wilderness level or higher is there a possibility of a fleeting and uncertain opportunity.

No wonder...

What that important figure is looking for could very well be related to some desolate, or even mythical, realm.

But there are too many unknowns.

Such opportunities and chances should be seized firmly, no matter how many there are.

Jing Shiqi said, "Even without that, the Great Zhou is not weak. If they can enter the Thirty-Sixth Heaven, they will be a powerful ally."

"If we can gain some control over it, it will greatly help our lord in the struggle for the Thirty-Sixth Heaven,"

"Furthermore, after establishing cooperation with the Great Zhou, the Federation will also provide substantial support to those who have a great influence in the Great Zhou."

"Therefore, you cannot make a move against Xie Lingxin right now."

Bai Shenji's eyes flashed: "Mr. Jing, do you mean... official positions in the Great Zhou?"

Jing Shiqi nodded: "In this world, powerful families, prestigious sects, and neighboring countries all possess considerable strength, but the most powerful is undoubtedly the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"When they enter the Thirty-Sixth Heaven in the future, the Federation will definitely try its best to win them over,"

"If one can gain a certain position and influence in the Great Zhou court, one will naturally receive more attention from the Federation,"

"Although it hasn't been made public yet, news has already spread to some levels,"

"One's status and influence in this realm, especially one's official position in the Great Zhou Dynasty, are very likely to become the 'ticket' to enter the Thirty-Six Heavens, as well as the resources that can be obtained within it."

The "ticket" to the Thirty-Sixth Heaven!
Bai Shenji could no longer contain himself, and a greedy glint appeared in his eyes.

The material world and the spiritual world are two sides of the same coin, one illusory and the other real.

As the saying goes in the Federation: You embrace legend, and legend embraces you.

Like the inside and outside of a mirror, they are interdependent.

The "Thirty-Six Heavens" is a point where these two worlds meet.

This is not a naturally occurring place, but a man-made dead zone.

It can be said that it is for the exchange between the material and spiritual worlds, and also to serve as a buffer against the contradictions between the two worlds.

That place is both a terrifying "hell" and a "fairyland" full of opportunities.

This place is filled with many strange and chaotic rules, and countless dangers.

It is also the dead zone where the Federation deploys the most troops and has the highest number of deaths every year.

However, it is also a place that many prominent families would fight tooth and nail to get into.

Ordinary practitioners would never have the opportunity to enter.

Even the Bai family of Donghai couldn't possibly reach or even touch the threshold.

Unless you're willing to serve as cannon fodder through annual military service, even then, it's still a matter of luck.

Even with insufficient strength and luck, it's impossible to be assigned to the Thirty-Six Heavens.

If one obtains a certain official position in the Great Zhou Dynasty, one can enter.

That's like a pie falling from the sky.

Bai Shenji seemed to realize something, his expression changed slightly, revealing a hint of jealousy: "So, that kid surnamed Xie actually stumbled upon a huge advantage by accident?"

Jing Shiqi laughed and said, "Isn't that right? What can you do if you're born into a good family? Brother Bai can understand that now, can't he?"

Bai Shenji was born into the Bai family, which is considered a stroke of good fortune by countless people, something that only inspires envy and jealousy.

Now the situation is reversed.

Jing Shiqi continued, "I have now established connections with the eunuchs in the Great Zhou Palace through various channels."

"If things go well, we might be able to meet the Grand Eunuch. With his help, becoming an official in the Great Zhou Dynasty won't be difficult."

"Moreover, Xie Lingxin has caused such a big commotion and has seriously offended this person,"

"If we can mediate and help him resolve this feud, we can naturally get him to work for us,"

"Not only his status as Prince Jing, but also the duties of the Lord are all falling on his shoulders, do you understand?"

Bai Shenji took a deep breath: "Mr. Jing, I understand. I will follow your instructions."

In fact, he didn't really have any grudge against Xie Lingxin.

It was all just for that important person's mission.

Even if a person of lowly birth is exceptionally talented, they still need to be born to grow up.

It's not enough to make him care.

But now, he really does care. This kind of birth... is truly enviable!
……

The capital city.

"Your Highness, Su Su and Xuan Xuan are so beautiful!"

Xie Lingxin sat under a stone pavilion, below which was a lotus pond.

Red fish frolic in the shallows of the pond, and white lotuses bloom.

There is a shallow beach with white stones on one side.

Two red-crowned cranes were dancing gracefully on the beach.

Susu was learning the crane dance in front of the pavilion, laughing and awkwardly trying out her moves.

Although clumsy, it has a unique charm.

The names Susu and Xuanxuan she mentioned are the names of these two cranes.

This place was Bai Juyi's residence in Luoyang.

That old Deng really knows how to enjoy life.

In the capital city where land is incredibly valuable, he actually owns a mansion covering nearly twenty acres.

There is also a stunning garden.

Located on the southeast side of the capital, nestled against the mountains and beside the water.

It is located beside the Yi River.

They dug canals and dredged beaches to bring the Yi River into the garden, creating a ten-acre pond with Bailianwu, Xianhetan, and Baipingzhou. It is said that Bai Juyi built it with the idea of ​​three overseas islands in mind.

In the garden, in the woods, and in the water, there were many famous items that Bai Juyi had collected from various places.

The pond is home to Hanyang crucian carp and Jiankang six-eyed turtles, while the woods are inhabited by Wuzhong thrushes and Pengze silver pheasants.

There are also two red-crowned cranes, Xuanxuan and Susu, on the rocky beach. They are said to be tribute cranes brought from Yangzhou.

Even the stone pavilion where he is sitting now has a Lingbi stone, a treasure that Bai Laodeng obtained when he served as the governor of Hangzhou, called Tianzhu Stone.

The garden features two unique Taihu stones, known as Letian Shoushan, and is planted with Zhongzhou lychee, Lushan cherry, Suzhou Dongting orange, and other plants.

Various exotic flowers and trees, as well as a large area of ​​vegetables and fruits.

The "Nine-Bend Bamboo Canal" constructed from bamboo tubes serves as the "automatic water supply and irrigation system for the whole house".

They also built three suspended pavilions overlooking the water on the mountaintop, called "Water Pavilion".

This was Bai Juyi's favorite place, but now, he has given up his three "water study" rooms for Prince Jing to live in.

He himself moved to another part of the house called "Wu Zhuo Chan Tang".

All of these things are so extravagant that they are utterly inhuman.

Xie Lingxin, a pitiful creature whose spine had been crushed by the harmful force of "real estate" for two lifetimes, felt both jealousy and hatred.

"Your Highness, this servant went to Qiao Family Village this morning."

Su Zhen, tired from playing, returned to the Tianzhu Stone Pavilion, washed her hands, poured out the brewed tea, and presented it to Xie Lingxin.

"Your Highness, please have some tea."

"I see that Qiao Da and the others are very grateful for the court's treatment, especially for His Highness,"

"I've heard that many families working on the river have set up longevity tablets for Your Highness, so... Your Highness, you really don't need to worry about it."

she said carefully.

Xie Lingxin knew she was referring to Song Shenxi's advice to "take things slowly" yesterday.

He did not answer Song Shenxi, which made Song Shenxi somewhat unhappy before he left.

But Su Zhen had always been by his side, and was very sensitive to his mood changes; she was also very perceptive.

I guessed that he was definitely dissatisfied with the court's handling of the situation and felt indignant on behalf of the people suffering from the flood in Bianzhou.

Xie Lingxin picked up her teacup and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I value my life very much and won't do anything foolish."

Upon hearing this, Su Zhen smiled brightly: "Your Highness is naturally the most intelligent person in the world!"

Xie Lingxin smiled without saying a word.

But this matter was on his mind.

Qiao Da and his ilk are used to being bullied, and now they hear that the officials in the court are arguing heatedly over their affairs.

Those "big shots" who usually acted arrogantly and domineeringly, even Wang Shoucheng, were "punished." How could they not be grateful?

At this point, Xie Lingxin's involvement is essentially over.

But he felt a tightness in his chest.

Thinking of the tragic state of Bianzhou described by Zhang Zhihong.

Ten thousand corpses were used to form a dam, and a child's corpse with a price tag around its neck floated on the canal...

Countless skeletons lay exposed on both sides of the river, and countless people starved to death because relief funds and supplies were embezzled.

Prostitutes were exchanged for relief grain, and people even exchanged their own children to eat...

All sorts of horrifying things made him uneasy.

This was the first time he had ever discovered that he still had so much conscience...

But he has already done everything in his power to save his life.

Wang Shoucheng might not let him off so easily. The current quiet is only temporary because he has just been stripped of his power and targeted.

Even if it's just for my own sake, I have to get rid of this damned eunuch first!

How do we do it?

Xie Lingxin sipped her tea, gazing at the ten-acre pond before her, a truly beautiful sight.

Moved by a thought, he murmured, "A ten-acre pond, like a mirror, reflects the sky and clouds. How can it be so clear? Because it has a source of living water..."

Suddenly, my eyes lit up.

It seems this isn't so difficult after all...

"Your Highness has kept this well hidden."

Just then, a voice filled with laughter and admiration rang out.

Look back.

Bai Juyi, Liu Yuxi, and others are arriving together.

“Mr. Lotte, Mr. Mengde.”

"Hahaha!"

Liu Yuxi strode over: "I never expected that Your Highness is not only exceptionally brave and martial, but also a skilled poet!"
