A sanctuary and a powerful lord was the basis of a territory's worshipping power. A territory with strong power, but no sanctuary, would not be able to raise the morale of the citizens in it, making it difficult to gather spiritual power. A territory with a sanctuary, but without a strong lord, would not be able to last long. Thus, the only way to form a powerful faction was through having both a sanctuary and a strong lord.

One example would be Gu Xia City. The godly spirit, along with Gu Hongzi and a huge castle, allowed the city to remain standing for a long time. If Gu Xia City did not have a strong lord, then everyone would stand up and fight for the position of the city lord, spreading the flame of war across the territory, and the citizens in the city would be afraid and worried. With that, the citizens would only worry about themselves and they would no longer pray and worship the godly spirit. After a long period of not being prayed and worshipped to, the godly spirit would fade away, and Gu Xia City would fall.

Therefore, if Zhong Yue wanted to stand his ground firmly in the East Barren, he would need more than just himself and his territory, he would need an existence strong enough to replace him at times when he was not present!

Thus he wanted to build Singing Goose Mountain into a saint mountain and move the master monastery there, allowing the people under his rule to worship him.

The Falcon Ridge was too small. Singing Goose Mountain was closer to Gu Xia City and the mountain was very steep and dangerous, yet looked almighty at the same time, making it to a good place to build his monastery at.

After returning to Falcon Ridge, Zhong Yue was a little shocked as he saw a golden temple with many huge structures surrounding it had appeared in Falcon Ridge.

Many of the palaces were yet to be fully built, and the many humans and monsters under his rule worked hard carving and building long and tall pillars.

There was also a pretty girl sitting in front of a palace as she supervised the work of the humans and monsters, while another few girls were drawing various attractive totem carvings as they said something to a few foremen.

The pretty girl was the dragon lady, Yu Chili. When she saw Zhong Yue from afar, she immediately walked towards him and greeted him with "Master!"

Zhong Yue nodded to return her greeting, and said in awe, "This is the master monastery you built?"

Yu Chili nodded and replied with a smile, "If Master's men were a little bit stronger, the monastery would have been fully built long ago. Master, I destroyed your monastery so I will rebuild another one for you, are you satisfied with this one?"

Originally, she was not happy to serve Zhong Yue, but after exchanging a blow with him, she was completely impressed by him, leading her to willingly listen to his orders. After telling her that he wanted to have his monastery rebuilt, Yu Chili really did build another for him. This one was much better than Zhong Yue's expectations by a few hundred times as it looked just like a dragon palace!

"Satisfied, I am extremely satisfied!"

Zhong Yue replied happily, "And who are those girls over there?"

"Those are sisters from the Yu Chi Clan."

Yu Chili laughed and said, "It was a little bit difficult for me to build such a huge monastery alone, thus, I contacted my clan and they were sent here to help build this monastery."

She then called the three dragon ladies up. The three dragon ladies greeted him with bows, "Greetings, Master Yue. We are Yu Chifang, Yu Chifeng, and Yu Chijing."

Yu Chijing laughed and said, "Master, we have long heard of your fame, but we only got to meet you in person today. We sisters thought that Master was an old man, but little did we know that our Master is almost as young as we are."

Zhong Yue replied, surprised, "You have all heard of my name?"

The three dragon ladies looked at each other and said, "Master's doing in the dragon city have been spread all across the Eastern Sea, how could we not know that? Many of the dragon disciples are incredibly grateful for Master's speech about the [Soaring Dragon Hundred Forms] !"

As they talked, Zhong Yue felt something and when he looked up into the skies, he saw a river flowing towards them in the air, along with a little boat. The river flowing in the air then connected to the river closest to Zhong Yue and the others, allowing the little boat to stop at the dock as Qing He, Long Chun'er, and the other girls jumped down from the boat.

Although Zhong Yue was stalled around the border of Gu Xia City for quite some time, the girls had not managed to catch up with him as their strength restricted their speed.

"Master, the precious items were given to us by the other factions were all sold and exchanged for spirit herbs and pellets."

Qing He then walked up and said, "Should I hand them over to Master now?"

Zhong Yue shook his head and replied, "I am about to move to Singing Goose Mountain and build my own saint mountain there, we shall decide the other things once we get there."

"Moving to Singing Goose Mountain?"

Yu Chili quickly asked, "But the monastery…"

Before she could finish her question, a loud noise was heard and the entire Falcon Ridge started to tremble vigorously as the entire ridge detached from the ground, flying up into the skies and turning in the direction of Singing Goose Mountain!

Yu Chili had a scare and so did the other girls. They quickly looked down towards the bottom of the mountain, only to find hundreds of Jiao Dragons appearing at the bottom of the ridge. Each looking terrifyingly realistic, with their scales shining brightly in the reflected sunlight, their muscles moving as they flexed, their blood pumping through their veins!

These Jiao Dragons were as large as a few hundred meters long, which seemingly granted them the tremendous strength to carry the entire Falcon Ridge into the air and fly towards Singing Goose Mountain!

Zhong Yue was hovering in midair with his arms half stretched out as all of Falcon Ridge flew towards Singing Goose Mountain. From how the dragons carried the ridge and flew towards Singing Goose Mountain, it felt like the dragons were the ones doing the job, but in truth, it was Zhong Yue who was doing the job because these Jiao Dragons were all formed by his psyche and power.

The men building the monastery watched this scene in awe and shock, then looked at Zhong Yue as if he was a god with new respect.

The Falcon Ridge flying in the sky created a shadow covering about a ten mile radius. When looked at from below, it was just like a huge dark cloud covering the sun with hundreds of Jiao Dragons dancing under the cloud, creating a marvelous scene.

Basically, any Qi Practitioners could carry items as heavy as hundred thousand tons, but to be able to carry a huge mountain, it would be way too difficult for them. A mountain like the Falcon Ridge was about at least a million tons!
