Fortune Teller

The capital of the dynasty.

The five cabinet ministers were sitting on both sides of the desk, with slightly cold expressions.

"Why aren't Lord Jiang Ming and Lord Zhou Chu here?"

"Mr. Jiang's condition has relapsed and he is bedridden. Mr. Zhou also suffered from wind and cold. I'm afraid he won't be able to come back for this period of time."

"What?"

"Now is a critical period for selecting a new cabinet. Why are both of them sick? Chang Wenyuan, did you do something behind the scenes?"

"How can I take care of them? The Ministry of Revenue is very busy with matters, and we have to promote mulberry farming. I don't even have time to eat every day. Please don't slander me."

The five people looked at each other with ugly expressions on their faces.

People have different thoughts. For more than ten years, Gu Xiuyun has been missing. It is inevitable that these cabinet ministers will have other thoughts when they are in charge of power.

Gradually, two factions formed in the cabinet, one headed by Chang Wenyuan and the other headed by Jiang Ming. Since Jiang Ming became seriously ill, the power of the cabinet began to shift towards Chang Wenyuan.

This time, the cabinet is planning to re-elect a substitute minister to temporarily replace Jiang Ming.

The selection of the cabinet must be discussed together by all members. Jiang Ming and Zhou Chu did not come. Their faction's strength has been reduced by half. How can they compete with the other party?

The substitute seat will most likely fall into the hands of Chang Wenyuan.

"Since the two adults are not here, how about postponing the cabinet selection for the time being and waiting for them to recover before discussing the matter?" said a minister.

"State affairs cannot be delayed. Don't you even understand this?" Chang Wenyuan said coldly, "When Mr. Jiang is not in the court, no one will deal with all the affairs behind him. Those officials shirk each other, who can I don’t dare to make a decision. If this continues, the court will be disbanded.”

"Master Chang is right. Now that the matter has been decided, it cannot be postponed. We are waiting for it. The people of the world and all sentient beings cannot wait."

The cabinet ministers of Jiang Ming's faction turned blue.

What the other party said was righteous and all the truth was taken away, so what else could they say?

After all, it was Master Zhou Chu who didn't come and made the mistake in the first place, so he was caught by the other party.

Just as he was hesitating, a guard hurriedly walked into the palace, "Sir... Sir, there is a young man in civilian clothes who calls himself the Lord of Black Teeth and is walking towards the palace."

"What?" The five cabinet ministers suddenly stared.

"The Lord is practicing the method of immortality in the inner hall. He must be a fake," Chang Wenyuan said urgently, "Drive him out immediately."

"But none of the guards in the palace can come to him." The guard looked pale.

In the whole world, only one person who can defeat the entire country's capital with one sword can possess such divine power.

"How is that possible?" Chang Wenyuan's body trembled violently, "After so many years, why is he still back?"

"Master Chang, you and I are both mortals. We can never fight against an immortal. We'd better hurry up and greet him!"

The cabinet ministers of Jiang Ming's faction sneered, "No matter how you plan, things that don't belong to you will not belong to you after all."

With that said, the four cabinet ministers walked out of the palace, leaving only Chang Wenyuan standing alone in the palace.

He also wanted to go with a few others to meet him, but he knew it was impossible.

Over the years, he has planned too many things, and each of them requires money and retainers. How can his men be clean?

With Gu Xiuyun's temper, he would never be tolerated.

"Even if all the mechanisms are exhausted, it will be in vain in the end."

Chang Wenyuan turned around and looked at the simple palace with a sad smile on his face.

…

A few days later, he headed to Miyagi City.

The commoner figure stood on the top of the 100-foot stone pillar, looking at the sky from a distance.

Under the stone pillar, occasionally ministers would come in a hurry, report a few words, and then leave in a hurry.

The hundred-foot-tall stone pillar had already towered into the clouds. They couldn't see clearly the figure at the top of the stone pillar. They only knew that the Black Tooth King was on top.

Order after order came from Gu Xiuyun's mouth, covering everything from offensive equipment to food, clothing, housing and transportation.

He wants to influence the mortal kingdom as quickly as possible, thereby absorbing more power of destiny.

"These void patterns...are changing every moment. If you want to deduce their mysteries, the calculation range must be wide enough. The power of destiny in my body is still a little lacking."

Gu Xiuyun looked at the sky silently.

After cultivating the innate true energy, he has been observing the lines all over the void, from the distant cliff tiankeng to the capital, which is millions of miles away.

The patterns in the void are different and change all the time, but they all contain the mystery of fate.

Gu Xiuyun vaguely understood that only by understanding these lines could he push away the fog of the world of mortals and find a way to leave.

The first step: Entering the Immortal Sect, he has already done it.

The rock monster's spiritual power is very limited, which can only allow him to cultivate to the second level of innate realm. Even with the protection of his mind and will, the lifespan of this body will not exceed five hundred years.

Five hundred years is very short.

But he didn't want to waste time continuing to search for spiritual power, because Gu Xiuyun didn't know if this spiritual power was the only one in the entire mortal world.

If that's the case, wasting time searching aimlessly will only make him completely lose the chance to escape.

…

Time passes slowly, and before you know it, eighty years have passed.

The other seven Realm Masters have all experienced at least one reincarnation, and some who came earlier have already been reincarnated seven or eight times before awakening.

They gradually discovered.

In every reincarnation, the accumulation of previous lives will be completely disappeared, and even the power of destiny will be gone. Reincarnation represents a new beginning.

"In the nine reincarnations, I was born in different places, and they have nothing to do with each other. Even the names of those countries are not recorded."

"It can be seen that the vastness of this world is beyond my imagination. It is impossible for a mortal to fully explore it."

Patriarch Tianji stood on the top of the cliff, looking at the vast and desolate land.

If this world is only billions of miles away, you might be able to see it once in your lifetime, but what if it reaches the size of a billion miles, tens of billions of miles, a hundred billion miles or even a chessboard realm?

With a mortal body, even if he cultivated to the limit of human beings and had tens of thousands of kilograms of strength, it would still take millions of years to walk from one side to the other.

Not to mention exploring the mysteries of heaven and earth...

It would take at least tens of thousands of times more time to search over and over again and visit every place.

Tens of billions of years?

Totally impossible.

The only way is to find the road to immortality and break away from the shackles of mortals, only then can it be possible to go further.

"A hundred years have been wasted," Patriarch Tianji shook his head slightly, "But it's good, at least I understand this."

"In the next life, I will try my best to absorb the power of fate and find a way to practice. This opportunity is destined to be mine."

call!

Patriarch Tianji jumped up and fell towards the cliff. He did not use his pores to relieve his force, and his speed became faster and faster, and finally he smashed heavily into the depths of the mountain rocks.

It didn't take long.

Elsewhere, a baby was born.

The baby has its eyes closed tightly. It has just been born and cannot yet open its eyes to observe the world, but it can hear the sounds around it.

"Black Tooth Immortal bless you, mother and son are safe."

"Thankfully we went to the Immortal Temple to worship once, otherwise your wife is weak and there is a high probability that she would not be able to pass this test."

"Thanks to the hemostatic pill from the Immortal Temple. I heard that this pill was personally taught by Immortal Black Tooth. Only a few temple priests can refine it. One pill costs two taels of silver."

"Two taels of silver are nothing. Saving your life is more important than anything else. In the past, your wife was bleeding profusely, but now she has lost two lives."

"Bah, bah, bah, what are you talking about?"

The surrounding sounds gradually disappeared.

"Black-toothed Immortal? Are there immortals in the world of mortals? Aren't there just some mythical legends?"

Patriarch Tianji was extremely confused.

According to what these people said, the Black Tooth Immortal was indeed a person, and he taught him the method of refining the hemostatic pill.

"This body is too weak to open its eyes. In a few years, we will be able to find out whether it is true or false." Patriarch Tianji whispered in his heart.
