Hermit in the Mountains

Gu Changsheng probed the Human Emperor Seal with his divine sense, and the fortunes, monarchical fortunes, and destinies of the nine ancient cities were all laid bare.

All I can say is: no wonder their ancestors were founding emperors, each one of them is destined to be a dragon among men.

Their influence and fortune transformed into a dragon, demonstrating that they all firmly remembered the truth that "water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it."

The influx of fortune from the nine ancient cities can significantly elevate the Emperor's Seal's grade, allowing it to enter the second stage.

The Ten Thousand Dragons Project!

It doesn't matter to him who ascends to the throne of the Human Emperor in the future.

All he needs to do is push the plan forward and get the world moving.

Competition creates a sense of urgency, which in turn inspires their fighting spirit and drives the progress of spiritual civilization.

Ten minutes after the invitation was sent out, in the virtual world of myriad realms, in the Hall of Longevity, the illusory image of Gu Changsheng sat cross-legged in the void.

Inside the main hall, figures dressed in dragon robes and Zhongshan suits gathered.

Most of the nine people were between twenty and forty years old.

They saw Gu Changsheng sitting cross-legged in the void directly in front of them, and bowed slightly to greet him.

Liu Yunzhong, dressed in a gray Zhongshan suit with short hair, respectfully performed the master-disciple greeting, saying, "Disciple Liu Yunzhong greets teacher."

"Congratulations to the teacher on establishing his teachings, and may he soon attain the Great Way."

With Liu Yunzhong taking the lead, the others all began to refer to themselves as disciples.

Outside, they are powerful rulers, but in front of Gu Changsheng, they are just slightly stronger cultivators.

If they continue to act superior and are removed from the observation list, the loss will be unbearable for them.

A virtual world covering the entire globe, granting land titles and employing underhanded tactics.

No method is acceptable for them to use to extort money.

"Disciple Li Chengzhi greets Master."

"Disciple Hua Anbang greets Master."

"Disciples Ying Tian, ​​Zhu Hong, Zhao Ming'an, Yang Xu, Xia Guang, and Shang Xuanming pay their respects to our teacher..."

"Greetings, everyone!" Gu Changsheng smiled calmly and gestured for everyone to dispense with formalities.

"I have summoned you here today for a plan."

"A year ago, the nine of you received the 'Humanitarian Memorial,' and the establishment of the temple represents your voluntary participation in the Kowloon Project."

"A year has passed, and all nine of you have passed the preliminary assessment."

"Since it's an assessment, there should be a prize."

Gu Changsheng's words exploded in the minds of the nine people, their expressions changed, and they gasped.

If they had not decisively built the temple in accordance with the "Humanitarian Memorial Text," they would have lost their eligibility to participate in the program.

If they do not prioritize protecting the people and improving their livelihoods throughout the year and fail to gain public approval, they may not pass the assessment.

If they hadn't taken that one step, they wouldn't be standing here today.

The nine men's eyes lit up when they heard the word "lucky draw".

The "prize" Gu Changsheng mentioned was definitely not an ordinary reward, and his heart burned with excitement as he wondered what kind of reward it would be.

He was wondering if he would receive a reward.

Ignoring the expressions of the nine people, Gu Changsheng directly threw out the "prize".

"Of the nine of you, the first three will receive two rewards."

"Firstly, the winners may build a local temple in their main city, and I will personally appoint a local deity."

"Secondly, the winners may suggest the prizes they wish to receive, and I will do my best to meet their needs within a reasonable range."

The nine people were still shocked when they heard Gu Changsheng say that he would dispatch the "land deity".

Previously, it was just a rumor; they had never seen the "Earth God" with their own eyes, unlike now when they heard it with their own ears and were deeply moved.

They all had some understanding of the functions of the "Earth God" in myths and legends.

This divine office has the greatest impact on those who follow the path of destiny, and can improve the safe production of grains and livestock.

They could already imagine that with a local deity presiding over the core of the city, security would be increased several times over.

Although they cannot command the local earth god, as long as He is in the city, evil spirits and ghosts generally dare not approach.

The people's approval of their rule will also increase.

Once the local earth god temple is completed, their legitimacy is significantly enhanced compared to other forces, making it more persuasive in attracting talent and the people.

The phrase "Our power has been recognized by the Longevity Cult!" is more effective than any propaganda or welfare policy.

Gu Changsheng named three names: "Zijin Ancient City, Hua Anbang;"

"Hanzhong Ancient City, Liu Yunzhong;"

"Chang'an Ancient City, Li Chengzhi".

The three people whose names were called were stunned for a moment, then immediately stepped forward and said, "Disciple is here..."

Gu Changsheng remained calm and instructed, "You can consult Zhang Yuanfu about the process of building a land temple."

"Simply leave the statue in the local earth god temple empty; when the time is right, the earth god will return to his rightful place."

"The three of you, tell me what kind of reward you want."

"The Hanzhong branch of Wan Jie Qian Zhuang is subject to the supervision of the headquarters and abides by the monetary policy set by the headquarters."

Gu Changsheng might not be able to provide other prizes, but he certainly has the quota for setting up a branch of the Myriad Realms Money Shop.

Changsheng Tongbao coins were not issued by the Lingshi Money Shop in the past.

He learned through inquiries that the Changsheng Sect had established a new God of Wealth Palace, specifically responsible for the issuance and management of Changsheng Tongbao coins.

Wandao City is merely an institution under the Mortal Academy.

However, the God of Wealth's Palace and the Mortal Courtyard belonged to the same level of institution, which shows their important status.

The Myriad Realms Money Shop is an agency under the God of Wealth's Palace, on par with the Myriad Paths City.

Hanzhong and Wandao City maintain a good cooperative relationship in trade, but Wanjie Money House is too independent.

They want to exchange for Longevity Coins, but they can only do so with the Myriad Realms Money Shop.

The uses of the Changsheng Tongbao are so extraordinary that it will inevitably become the unified currency of the Blue Star in the future.

It's not a bad deal to use the reward to open a branch of the Myriad Realms Bank, or to strengthen trade with Myriad Realms City.

Using Longevity Coins for settlement is more efficient than using Spirit Stones.

The teleportation fee for one spirit stone is the same as that for one longevity coin.

One Longevity Coin is equivalent to five hundred spirit stones, which can instantly reduce the teleportation cost by nearly five hundred times.

The Longevity Coin is superior to the Spirit Stone in both its uses and storage capacity.

If there were a branch of the Myriad Realms Money Exchange in the ancient city of Hanzhong, the point-to-point exchange of Longevity Coins would be more conducive to financial management.

It also makes it easier to coordinate economic regulation under the jurisdiction.

Cultivators under his rule do not need to spend teleportation fees; they can exchange for Longevity Coins in Hanzhong City, which can be used to boost the economy, trade, and people's livelihood.

There are so many benefits!

The other eight people quickly realized the benefits that Liu Yunzhong's choice could bring, as he was able to become a regional overlord.

A hint of apprehension flashed in their eyes.

They were wary that Liu Yunzhong's thinking was more suited to the cultivation world, and some of them were still considering rewards such as treasures and promises.

Liu Yunzhong set his sights on currency, specifically a semi-official bank branch.

In Gu Changsheng's eyes, Liu Yunzhong's choice was a matter of a single word.

She could get the reward she wanted without putting Gu Changsheng in a difficult position.

Perhaps I can gain Gu Changsheng's favor, which would be a win-win situation.
