56: Chapter 56 The Precious Yellow Heaven! The Gold Content of the Heavenly Yuan Coin!

[Ding! A bad idea has sprouted in your mind.]

[The matter of the Black Fiend Bandits has been weighing on your mind. You know that with your current combat power of just over two hundred, it is probably difficult to take down these bandits who have the advantage in mobility and numbers.]

[But this Spirit Demon Storm has given you a dangerous opportunity!]

[Catch them off guard, attack when they are unprepared!]

[Return rate (121%)]

[But the prerequisite is... Qinghe Town cannot be lost.]

Arriving at the entrance, Shen Yi shook the gravel off his body.

Pushing the door open, he entered.

Pei Lingshu had not returned to her room, seemingly waiting for Shen Yi.

Pei Lingshu casually picked up a teacup nearby; the tea was clear and fragrant.

But it was snatched away from her hand by Shen Yi... and drunk dry in one go.

For some reason, ever since that heart-to-heart talk yesterday... the Shen Yi before her had become increasingly thick-skinned.

Pei Lingshu looked up and rolled her eyes at Shen Yi, saying helplessly.

"You shameless fellow... speak, what do you want to ask?"

Shen Yi asked with some curiosity.

"This storm... is it a natural disaster, or a demonic calamity?"

Pei Lingshu looked at Shen Yi in surprise...

"I didn't expect you to understand it so thoroughly... Correct, it is a demonic calamity."

"How long will this demonic calamity last?"

"At least until the New Year."

"What is the goal? Is it just for the Yao Race to plunder the Human Race for flesh and blood?"

"Of course not..."

Pei Lingshu poured herself another cup of tea and said indifferently.

"The Sanchuan Sand Sea has buried too many of the Yao Race... among them, many great Yao."

"Some great Yao want to retrieve their remains... but the remains have long been treated by the Imperial Court as their own feast."

"So they can only use this method... to create confusion."

"Archaeology, is it?"

Pei Lingshu's mouth twitched... she could always hear some fresh vocabulary from Shen Yi.

"You could say that."

"Truly unfilial, digging up their own ancestors' graves."

"..."

Shen Yi then asked.

"I intend to go on an expedition to wipe out the Black Fiend Bandits... but to go all out, I will certainly have to take all the Dao soldiers with me."

"But... the demons from the Spirit Demon Storm might appear in the small town."

Pei Lingshu was puzzled.

"You want me to take action and help you guard Qinghe Town?"

Shen Yi shook his head.

"No, I just wanted to ask Miss Pei, is there any good item that can suppress Qinghe Town and keep it safe?"

"Spectacles of that sort."

"Spirit Treasures of that sort."

"Formations."

Pei Lingshu said with a smile.

"In the south of the Jing Kingdom, there is an 800,000-mile Cloud Dream Marsh, filled with poisonous insects and evil gods."

"The common people live in misery, persecuted daily."

"The Imperial Court established a City God Temple and invited incense deities... to guard the area!"

"That is a spectacle!"

"In the great rivers and waterways, the great rivers often flood, and water-attribute demonic creatures cause Chaos... so the Imperial Court hangs a Dragon-Slaying Sword under the bridge!"

"That is a Spirit Treasure!"

"The Kitchen God that the common people worship when they cook."

"The Sea Goddess worshipped by the people of the Jing Dynasty when they go to sea..."

"These can all protect the common people of a region."

"But things like spectacles are rare in the Jing Kingdom... generally, only people of high virtue and prestige have the opportunity to obtain them."

"The rakshasa statue in your hand also counts as a spectacle... to have obtained it from the remnants of the Zhenwu Immortal Sect, you can already consider your Luck heaven-defying!"

"However..."

"However what?"

Shen Yi smiled and took out three tianyuan tongbao from his ring.

Pei Lingshu's pupils shrank suddenly at the sight.

Even Old Fu, who was watching the show, couldn't help but drop his jaw.

Pei Lingshu was stunned for a moment before returning to her senses. Extremely intelligent, she instantly associated it with something and smiled faintly.

"Obtained from the hands of that evil sect Cultivator?"

"Yes..."

"Your Luck... is truly exaggerated!"

Pei Lingshu laughed dumbfoundedly and said.

"You can seek a Formation from Baohuang Heaven."

"But a Formation requires too much Spiritual Qi."

"You can also seek protection from an Immortal Treasure... this protection from an Immortal Treasure means you hand over the tianyuan tongbao to an Immortal Sect, and the Immortal Sect gives you their signature Immortal Treasure, which then deters demonic creatures, or even slays them."

"You can also use this to connect with the Immortal Sect, and in the future, you will have some incense ties."

"Of course, you can also ask the Imperial Court to establish a City God Temple... this is the safest."

"The City God Temple does not rely on Spiritual Qi, but on the Luck of the common people... however."

"However what?"

Pei Lingshu said with a smile that was not quite a smile.

"However, the City God is subordinate to the Imperial Court. While the City God protects you... it will also transmit Luck to the Imperial Court."

"For those who are loyal, it is naturally fine..."

"But for those with ulterior motives... it might not be."

Shen Yi heard this, his expression froze.

"Miss Pei, what are you saying?"

"My, Shen Yi's, loyalty... is as clear as the sun and moon, visible to heaven!"

"Do not speak such treasonous words..."

Pei Lingshu nodded quickly.

"Yes... yes..."

Shen Yi was silent, then asked awkwardly.

"Can I set up a City God Temple myself?"

Old Fu, who was half-squatting, sat down on the steps with a thud.

He looked at Shen Yi in front of him with horror in his eyes.

"What the hell? What kind of background does this kid have? To set up his own incense deity?"

"How is this different from a wild god or an evil cult?"

"This kid... is really not someone to be trifled with."

Pei Lingshu smiled slightly.

"Rank 4 or above, probably possible."

"Then forget it."

"How do I enter Baohuang Heaven?"

"If you want to go... you can go."

Shen Yi was stunned for a moment.

"I want to go to Baohuang Heaven?"

Just as he wanted to look up and ask for details... he was suddenly stunned.

He saw the surroundings were chaotic... endless yellow light suddenly shot through.

The fog on both sides suddenly dissipated...

A portal that reached the sky and was filled with infinite treasure light appeared before his eyes.

Within the gap, there was the atmosphere of Immortals, and countless Spirit Treasures.

Shen Yi came here, just slightly opening a crack in the door... but heard a mechanical voice appear!

"Shen Yi... unranked Immortal Dynasty official."

"Serving as Qinghe Town Town Chief."

"Three tianyuan tongbao."

"What do you want to exchange for?"

Before Shen Yi could speak... his thoughts drifted.

The voice seemed to have sensed it... several streams of light suddenly darted out!

[Spirit Treasure Clone - Dazhong Temple, Price: One tongbao, Function: Can summon a phantom of Dazhong Temple, can consume Spiritual Qi, request Dazhong Temple martial monks to take action against enemies, the martial monks possess intelligence, not Puppets!]

[Spirit Treasure Clone - Yunshang Sword, Price: One tongbao, Function: Can summon the Yunshang Immortal Sword of the Yunshang Sword Sect, the Immortal Sword is sentient.]

[Spirit Treasure Clone - Tattooed Army, Price: One tongbao, Function: Rank 4 Dao soldiers from the northern border of the Imperial Court!]

[City God Temple, Price: One tongbao!]

[Five-Child Formation]

[Four Seasons Cycle Formation!]

[Heaven Patrol Formation]

...

Shen Yi was enveloped by countless treasure lights... countless treasure lights exuded a fawning intent.

These noble treasures, under the temptation of the tianyuan tongbao, turned into sycophants...

No, not the treasures, but the forces providing these treasures.

The purchasing power of this tianyuan tongbao... is actually this strong?

He saw his eyes flicker... several pieces of intelligence probability appeared before his eyes!
