Chapter 431 Testing
After subduing several third-rank kiln owners, Zhou Tieyi ordered them to hand over the Taixu Illusion Mask on their bodies. He first modified it and then handed it back to them. He then ordered them to move their own kingdom of God to the corresponding location. At that time, he would use the method of the Divine Court to help them conceal their breath and isolate them from the detection of the God-Slaying Department.

This is not wrong in itself, but its real purpose is to complete this incomplete temple. Nine is the highest number. When the Taihang Mountain Temple was first established, nine red copper pillars were erected, which was equivalent to the halfway extension of the core of the entire temple. Each red copper pillar can change the surrounding climate and geography, but if there is a third-grade deity stationed there, this matter will be much easier.

Instructing Cao Shan to continue gathering the remaining kiln owners, Zhou Tieyi also secretly notified Senior Sister Miaoyu to kill those kiln owners whose traces were found and who were unwilling to surrender. If nothing unexpected happened, the entire Taihang Mountain would be completely cleared in about two or three months, unless the Nine Ancient Gods planned to re-enter the Taihang Mountain. This was the role of the Divine Court.

Now all that was left was to intimidate the lineage of the Nine Ancient Gods, which also happened to coincide with his own conjecture.

Zhou Tieyi first notified Hu Wenlang and Mo Fei as a helper, then thought for a while and notified Guan Guan. Then he walked into the dream world as if taking a leisurely stroll in the garden, and with the help of Taixu Illusion, he came to a door that led to the sky and the earth.

In the previous battle in Taihang Mountain, Shinto was badly defeated except for Guan Guan. Although he, who held the holy power, did not stop Shinto from leaving, the Bone Priest and the Phantom Priest would still have to suffer some minor injuries if they wanted to break away from the entanglement of opponents of the same level, especially the Phantom Priest, who had been injured before and this time was even more injured.

Zhou Tieyi put on the Taixuhuan mask and walked into the Taixuhuan world.

In a house in the market, the panda said in a nearly roaring tone, "The price of the Grand Illusionary Coin has dropped by another 30% in the past few days. Should we still buy it?"

More than a month ago, Zhou Tieyi and Yueqin planned to take advantage of the defeat of the gods and the impact on the reputation of Taixu Illusion Realm to charge Taixu Illusion Coins at a low price. At that time, they thought that the top leaders of the Nine Ancient Gods would increase the value of Taixu Illusion Coins in order to stabilize their reputation, so they could make a considerable profit in the meantime.

But who could have expected that Shinto would not only fail in Pingjin Ferry, but also fail in Taihang Mountains. Although this time the priests of the Nine Ancient Gods such as Huan Priest did not take part in person, but only the old and young people of the Taihang Mountain pantheon took part, the result was that Mo Jia's Tian Fu ascended to heaven and converted millions of evil spirits in Taihang Yinshan in one fell swoop, eliminating Shinto's arrangements for hundreds of years. At the same time, even the leader of the Taihang pantheon was completely wiped out like the Taihang Goddess at the beginning, without even his name left.

The panda, who originally thought he could make a fortune, had almost gone bankrupt by following Zhou Tieyi and Yueqin to buy Taixu Huan Currency. However, if he sold it at the current price, he would not only lose 30%, but also have to add the money he borrowed from various places, which means almost all the money he had saved for half his life.

If it weren't for the fact that attacks were prohibited in the Taixu Illusion Realm, the panda would probably have grabbed Yueqin's neck and asked her questions by now.

"Has he met or contacted you privately in the past few days?!"

Yueqin looked calm. Although 100,000 Taixu Huanbi was not a small amount for her, it was just a drop in the bucket for the Ji and Zhao family of Chongshan Prefecture.

"No."

Yueqin replied simply, "But the message he gave was to keep collecting and not worry about losses."

"asshole!"

The panda slammed his fist on the table in anger, but in the illusory world, everything was created by mirage, so there was no sense of touch at all, and he couldn't vent the nameless anger in his heart.

The only way he could think of to solve the loss now was Zhou Tieyi. After all, it was Zhou Tieyi who asked Yueqin and himself to charge Taixuhuan coins at a low price, and Zhou Tieyi himself would only get more because of the ginseng fruit!

Having said that, the panda turned around angrily and was about to leave.

"Where are you going?"

Yueqin asked.

"Go make money!"

The panda said unhappily, "I'm not as wealthy as you two. If I don't find a way to make more money, I'm afraid I won't even be able to pay off my debts."

He licked his lips. The only good news now was that because of the chaos in Taihang Mountain, Zhou Tieyi was still clearing out various aristocratic families. Although the small aristocratic families in Taihang Province did not have the courage to confront Zhou Tieyi, they were also thinking of secretly taking their own descendants out of Taihang Mountain and hiding their identities in the future, which was also considered as leaving the family fire.

This period was extremely chaotic, and each family used all sorts of means. Faced with the life-and-death crisis, they no longer cared about the potential dangers of the escape methods themselves. After all, no matter how dangerous it was, it could not be more dangerous than facing Zhou Tieyi in person.

Therefore, those noble families with a illusory side no longer concealed it. In the past few days, Yunlai Ju had a large number of tasks to take people away. As long as the direct descendants of the family could be successfully taken away, some small noble families were even willing to give out half of their property.

Of course, the panda did not only value this point, he also thought about whether he could rob other criminals. It happened that Zhou Tieyi revealed the news that he was in Taihang Mountain, so the panda rushed to Taihang Mountain in order to curry favor with him, and left behind many escape routes, which could be used at this time.

Yueqin hesitated whether to help the panda to advance some funds. After all, the panda introduced her to Zhou Tieyi and could be considered as a matchmaker.

Suddenly, Yueqin said, "Wait."

There was a hint of surprise in her tone.

The panda turned around and instantly guessed the reason for the surprise in Yueqin's tone, "He's here?"

Yueqin nodded quickly. With the address given by Yueqin, Zhou Tieyi arrived at the individually rented small building in just ten breaths.

The small building is located in the market town. Various commodities are displayed on the first floor. All commodities are clearly marked with prices and settled in Ethereum virtual currency, just like a store in the real world.

During this period, because the Taixuhuan Coin has depreciated significantly, many Taixuhuan Coin holders come here directly to trade.

Seeing the hot scene, Zhou Tieyi smiled slightly.

When we got to the second floor, the panda rushed over and complained, "Brother Panda, you kept me waiting for a long time."

Originally, the pandas were just pretending. In the illusory world, everyone was shrouded in a layer of mirage, so they would not reveal their true forms. Only those extremely confident beings would show their true forms.

But he never expected that this time when he pounced, he actually touched an 'entity'. The thin mist surrounding Zhou Tieyi dissipated, revealing his brilliant divine body.

This made the panda stunned for a moment. When Zhou Tieyi took out the ginseng fruit and hinted that he had a way to grow ginseng fruit, the panda guessed that the person he met might be a revived god, and at least a third-grade god. And now Zhou Tieyi's appearance is definitely not just a third-grade god. Even if the gods don't respect Daxia's etiquette, most of the gods are born from the human way, and they also have awe for the human way. Not every god dares to wear the twelve-chapter costume.

Zhou Tieyi chuckled and pushed the panda away, looking at Yueqin first, "Is there any problem with the purchase of Taixuhuan Coin?"

Yueqin nodded slightly, "No problem."

Zhou Tieyi continued, "Increase it thirty times."

Yueqin was stunned, because the amount Zhou Tieyi mentioned was not a small amount. She had the support of her family during this period, and because the price of Taixu Huan Currency had fallen, the number of Taixu Huan Currency she had purchased had already exceeded 200,000. Even if calculated at the current fallen price, it was enough to buy a top-quality third-grade magic weapon.

And what does thirty times mean?
Apart from the three traditions of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, which could be brought out without hesitation, perhaps only their family at the level of Qing Emperor's inheritance could bring it out.

“That’s not a small amount.”

Zhou Tieyi raised his hand and said, "I will provide three quarters of it. Of course, I won't provide it immediately, but will slowly release it to the market to stabilize the current value of the Taixu Fantasy Coin."

Yueqin's eyes fell on Zhou Tieyi's gorgeous clothes in Chapter 12. She was thinking whether to agree immediately and win Zhou Tieyi's favor, or to be cautious and answer that she could not make the decision and needed to return to the family to discuss it.

Just as Yueqin was thinking, there was a knock on the door.

Yueqin was suddenly startled, because this place looked like a pavilion, but it was actually a space enclosed by mirage. Logically speaking, even if someone wanted to come in, they should have greeted through the Taixu illusory surface instead of knocking on the door directly from the outside.

This only proves one thing, that the other party controls the entire Taixu Illusionary Realm, or at least has partial control over the surrounding mirage energy. Whether you agree or not, the other party can easily come in.

I just knocked on the door out of courtesy.

As for politeness reasons...

Yueqin's gaze fell from the direction of the door to Zhou Tieyi. Zhou Tieyi had completely taken the lead and said to the door like a master, "Please come in."

The portal of the mirage opened, and two people stood outside. One was Guan Guan, who was shrouded in blood-red mist, and the other was Elder Lian, who had a kind appearance and an immortal demeanor.

Elder Lian first greeted, "Sir, we meet again. I was so rude last time that I didn't ask for your name."

Zhou Tieyi had met Elder Lian at the large-scale auction held in Taixu Illusion Realm, and it was through Elder Lian that he got the panda's spot.

Zhou Tieyi's appearance kept changing between men, women, young and old, and he said in a leisurely tone, "Yanhuang."

Although he spoke in a casual manner, he was extremely cautious towards Master Lian.

The other party knew his identity directly through the panda?

He looked at Guan Guan who was shrouded in blood mist. Guan Guan looked normal. During the meeting of the Nine Ancient Gods, she had already revealed her connection with Yan Huang, so there was no way she could pretend not to recognize him.

On the contrary, this time the rest of the Nine Ancient Gods wanted to confirm whether Zhou Tieyi was the extremely mysterious Ninth God, or the Ninth God's priest, or a divine fetus. They sent Guan Guan and Lian Lao, who had met Zhou Tieyi before, to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings between the two sides, which would cause instability in the already weak Shinto.

Guan Guan did not speak, but Zhou Tieyi had already obtained the information he wanted, which was that Elder Lian definitely did not know his true identity at the beginning, but the other party had special means, such as the ability to sense opportunities in the dark, so he casually placed the panda as a chess piece.

For these powerful people who have a lot of resources and have lived for who knows how long, the best way to make moves when they have nothing to do is to casually arrange the chess pieces and wait for them to bear fruit.

In fact, as Zhou Tieyi becomes stronger and stronger and obtains more and more resources, he also has this trend. However, because he can see the context and future of the times more clearly, the people Zhou Tieyi arranges and trains are very purposeful and can produce results in a short period of time.

After Zhou Tieyi finished answering, Guan Guan spoke up at the right time, "This is Elder Lian. Elder Lian has also made great contributions to the establishment of the present Grand Illusionary Realm. Even I have received Elder Lian's favor several times."

Elder Lian waved his hands and said, "It's just that he has grown a little older. As for the favor the blood priest mentioned, there is no such thing as a favor. It's just mutual benefit."

Zhou Tieyi didn't care about Elder Lian's humble words, and the other party was the same. The more difficult he was, the more difficult he was. Fortunately, his identity was now almost semi-public. In the eyes of the Nine Ancient Gods, they must have regarded him as the Ninth God who did not leave a name in history. This probability was the highest and most reasonable.

"Master Lian and the Blood Priest came together. What's the matter?"

Elder Lian said honestly, "It is because the Venerable God was too mysterious before and did not show himself to outsiders. Now he has completely entered the world and is a giant in our Shinto. Now the world is about to be in chaos, so we want to invite the Venerable God to participate in the meeting of the Nine Ancient Gods."

After saying that, Elder Lian honestly took out a special Taixu illusory mask and handed it to Zhou Tieyi. With this special Taixu illusory mask, he could directly enter the Yunding Divine Court and participate in the divine meeting.

Zhou Tieyi accepted this illusory face without hesitation and said with a smile, "It just so happens that I have the same idea."

He pointed at the pandas and Yueqin around him and said, "The failures of the Divine Path these few times have already affected the value of the Grand Illusionary Coin. I have only just recovered and cannot leave the Grand Illusionary Realm trading market. So I just want to do what I can to help stabilize the price of the Grand Illusionary Coin. If I convene another Divine Court meeting, I can discuss it with everyone."

Elder Lian nodded slightly, "It is a blessing for the gods that the gods have such a heart."

Of course, he and the Phantom Priest knew what Zhou Tieyi was doing and had analyzed it.

Judging from the ginseng fruit information shown by Zhou Tieyi, this kind of fruit requires a large number of corpses to condense. If the Lord of Yanhuang does not want to be exposed to the eyes of Daxia too early and be targeted by the Daxia court, then it is reasonable for him to borrow the market of Taixu Illusion to obtain a stable supply of corpses. Therefore, it is reasonable for the other party to stabilize the Taixu Illusion Coin and thus stabilize the market order.
