The Great Divine Power of Primordial Magnetism I just used, I learned from her. Find somewhere to sit for now; I'll go welcome Granny.
Oh, right—who's going to look for Human Emperor Yishan?
" "Shen'er, you're back? " The Blind Elder felt his way in, leaning on a bamboo staff. "Blind Elder, what are you running so fast for?
" The Deaf Elder and the Cook followed close behind.

. Shen Mu's residence was already packed to overflowing, with no room to set foot. Shen Mu hurried to find the Imperial Preceptor of Jingping and asked, "Junior brother, how many people did you invite?
" "There are also the Dao Master, Rulai, and Little Yujing. " The Imperial Preceptor of Jingping said, "I also notified the King of Hell.
The Chiming remnant clan of the South Sea is not our faction, so I did not inform them.
Grand Libationer Xu Shenghua is far away in the Western Lands, too distant from here—it would take him two or three years just to travel, so I did not notify him either. " Shen Mu was dumbfounded for a moment, then hurriedly summoned several maids. "I have too many guests here; there's no room to stay.
Take some money and buy up the neighboring residences.
" The head maid said, "Those who live nearby are mostly wealthy merchants and nobles. I'm afraid they'll raise their prices on the spot.
" "That small amount of money is no concern. " Shen Mu waved his hand, telling them to go quickly.
The Imperial Preceptor of Jingping was silent for a moment, then said, "Much of the Heavenly Sage Cult's wealth was donated to the national treasury for disaster relief. Why does senior brother still have so much money?
" "Probably Ling'er earned it in Crimson Dragon City. " Shen Mu did not quite understand either. He said apologetically, "I never asked about the money.
I have no interest in such things. " The Imperial Preceptor of Jingping walked away in silence and continued studying the ancient god's blessing on the back of the Heavenly Venerable Yu's head with the others. After the surrounding residences were bought, Shen Mu immediately had the walls torn down, connecting the houses for easy passage. Some days later, Wang Muran, Mu Qingdai, and others from Little Yujing arrived. After some more time, Dao Master Lin Xuan brought many old and young Daoist priests from the Daoist sect.
Ma Rulai arrived as well, bringing the Xuanliao Demon Ape Zhankong and Monk Chenghuai. Shen Mu heard that the Heavenly King Buddha Indra had also come, but he had not seen him—likely hiding from the Old Farmer, or perhaps, without Shen Mu's knowledge, beaten by the Old Farmer and sent flying into some gutter. This residence was now a gathering place of experts. Dao Master Lin Xuan led many Daoist priests in diligently cataloging the various runes within the ancient god's blessing, while others deduced the mysteries of these runes, trying every method to decipher the blessing.
"These ancient god blessings on the Heavenly Venerable Yu are an immense treasure trove!
" The Imperial Preceptor of Jingping suddenly said, "Once we catalog all the runes contained in the ancient god blessings, we can determine the ancient gods' Great Dao rune system! Jingping's rune Dao will surely usher in a great explosion! " The Woodcutter said, "Let's not be in a hurry to erase these blessings. Let's catalog them quickly!
If we can fully catalog them, this will be the rune Dao system of the ancient Heavenly Court! " . .

Shen Mu also intended to study the mysteries, but the four Heavenly Masters drove him out.
The Old Farmer said, "You have your own proper business—go open the Seventh Divine Treasury. When you're done, call me!
