749 Huayun Longxuan (1/2)
Zong Shou was furious, he wanted him not to bother about his money, but who would worry about his life?
Since Renbo didn't care too much about his lifespan, then he wouldn't care about it either.
He directly waved his sleeves and left. Zong Shou casually looked around before flying into the air.
Since Renbo was personally taking charge of Rainbow City, then it wouldn't be too much of a problem.
When he left, the people within the city seemed to know about his arrival.
The entire city cheered out.
However, he was in a really bad mood. His face was dark and sunken. It was because of Renbo, but also because of those dead people.
He headed north until the shuttle was several hundred miles away. Only then did he feel a little better.
He could see a roughly 5,000-foot high platform which was standing on a plain.
From afar, the stone platform was still being rebuilt, many pieces of giant stone were being pushed upward.
There were numerous people who were hard at work.
This place was a desolate plain between Gantian Mountain and Rainbow City. What was being built was the Heaven Reaching Platform, where he would face the tribulation! Within a month, it was going to be built up to 9,000 feet and also have a complete Spiritual Formation drawn around it.
The entire process was like amassing a mountain on a flat piece of land.
If it was anywhere else, it would be a huge waste of money and was the sign of the death of the country.
However, Zong Shou didn't make use of country funds and didn't make use of civilian labor. He spent his own money and the materials were all bought. The people were hired using money and Mind Stones. Thus, he felt at ease. The strong civilians all over all eyed and desired to join in.
Naturally, there were many people talking about it these past few days.
Donglin Cloud Continent was now prosperous and there were many Confucians who headed over. There were many who said that he abused civilian labor, that he was prideful and luxurious, that he was asking to be wiped out.
However, these were just comments spread privately, so he didn't care about them.
This was the benefit of being a Ruler. When needed, he could use the labor and materials within the country for his own use.
Apart from the stone platform, there was a thick Vengeful Energy surging in the clouds.
A full army of 400,000 was gathered here, including the Blood Cloud Cavalry.
During the fight against the Taoist Faction, both the Blood Cloud Cavalry and the Xuan Fox Iron Cavalry both suffered many losses. Luckily, Gantian Mountain had deep pockets and foundations and within a few days they replenished the manpower.
After dozens more huge battles, if one didn't calculate the newbies, their combat strength all rose instead of decreasing.
When Zong Shou descended on the high platform, he saw Kong Rui looking closely at an incomplete Spiritual Formation axis.
He wasn't surprised by Zong Shou's arrival. He just calmly bowed toward him.
”Ruler please don't be worried! This Heaven Reaching Platform will be complete in 15 days. The Spiritual Formation drawn doesn't have any mistakes. In 20 days, we can temporarily gather the Gantian Mountain Dragon Vein over.”
Zong Shou didn't fully trust what he said, spreading out his Spiritual Sense, covering 100 miles. A moment later, he nodded his head in recognition.
Like what Kong Rui said, everything was proceeding smoothly. He felt that his father in law was really amazing.
Not only was he good at divination techniques, but his cultivation was also extremely deep. He wasn't a simple Spirit Realm Expert. His Formation Dao attainments were really exceptional too. He was also great at managing people, such a huge construction, millions of people, numerous resources. Everything was orderly and smooth, there was no chaos at all.
In a short few days, he was able to build up this 10-mile wide stone platform to a height of 5,000 feet. Through this, one could see his ability.
Gantian Mountain's Dragon Vein could in fact be sucked over.
He was just borrowing it. He didn't really want to borrow its strength to go through the tribulation.
He wanted enough Spiritual Energy to train and purify his physical body after the tribulation.
He wasn't willing to harm the innocent near Gantian Mountain, so he would just temporarily shift the Earth Veins over here.
This was where he chose to fight against Taoist Faction and Yuanshi Demon Sect.
Each month, there would be more Taoist Faction experts who returned to the Cloud World. Ruoshui also found news that Yuanshi Demon Sect would go all out.
Zong Ling was in charge of supporting Kong Rui, who commanded the construction. The one observing was Hu Zhongyuan.
When he saw Zong Shou, his knife-like thick eyebrows furrowed, filled with worry.
”Ruler, this Heaven Tribulation...”
He stopped. All of a sudden, he didn't know how to put it.
His eyes were filled with blood threads, filled with anxiousness as he didn't know what to do.
He mumbled softly, ”Aren't you going to avoid it? Why don't we shift more troops over!”
Zong Shou didn't even need to think and knew what he was getting at. The entire Gantian Mountain City had such a pessimistic atmosphere.
There were very few people who knew that he joined the Common People's Path; only Xuanyuan Tong and Hu Qianqiu and a few others.
Hu Zhongyuan wasn't among them, but he also knew the rough movement of those sects. Naturally, he was really worried about him.
”The tribulation is fixed, so how can I avoid it?”
Kong Rui shook his head when he heard this, ”Ruler's Heaven Barrier has been broken and can't be reversed. It is a happy thing so why worry? At this moment, Gantian Mountain has a lack of manpower. 400,000 are enough. I foretell it, Ruler will definitely be safe!”
Hu Zhongyuan frowned when he heard this, he never believed in divination.
Even if Donglin pretty much treated Kong Rui as a godlike presence.
