Chapter 287: Unexpected Person
"I was careless. I designed a barrier for the warship to protect it from soul attacks, but I didn't expect that the effect of awakening souls could break the illusion."
The warship sailed back to Xingyue Market and disguised itself again. The monks on the warship left in an orderly manner, and Chu Lingyu led a group of formation masters and weapon refiners to inspect the warship.
Tianyu shook his head, walked down and said to everyone.
The defensive magic weapon of the Blood Shadow True King does not have the ability to attack the soul. On the contrary, its bell sound can make people's mind clear.
The battleship was not defended against this capability.
The sobering bell sound awakened the monks who were immersed in the illusory world of Taixu, making their power no longer able to be mobilized by Tianyu at will.
The effectiveness of the warship was greatly reduced, and it had to give up chasing the demon cultivator.
"Fortunately, there were no casualties, so it's not a big deal. Will the large-scale Taixu Fantasy Realm in the Immortal Dynasty also be affected by this?"
Fang Chen waved his hand. As long as the warship was safe, it didn't matter if he couldn't give chase.
The Taixu Illusion on the battleship is a military illusion specially set up for combat, and it is not connected to the Taixu Illusion inside the Immortal Dynasty.
The key point is whether this kind of problem also exists in the Taixu Fantasy Realm of the Immortal Dynasty?
After a year of violent development, many foundations of the Immortal Dynasty are tied to the Taixu Illusion Realm. If the Taixu Illusion Realm is broken, the entire Immortal Dynasty will be in panic.
"It is indeed a problem. Although the Immortal Dynasty's Grand Illusionary Realm is extremely large, if there is really a Yuanying True King who uses his full strength to activate a similar magic weapon, it is possible that all the cultivators of the entire Immortal Dynasty will be awakened from the Grand Illusionary Realm. Although it will not cause any substantial harm, the panic it will cause is real."
Tianyu touched his chin. The possibility that Fang Chen mentioned did exist.
"Then we must take precautions in advance."
After Tianyu's confirmation, Fang Chen also attached great importance to this matter and wanted Tianyu to give a corresponding solution.
"give it to me."
Tianyu also knew the importance of this matter. As the person who knew the most about formations in the Immortal Dynasty, he had no choice but to take on this matter.
"But there is no need to do it now. You just won a great victory. I have recorded the whole process and will upload it to the Grand Illusionary Realm later so that the people of the Immortal Dynasty can see our victory."
After saying this, Fang Chen turned around and looked at the Immortal Dynasty monks who were getting off the warship.
In the simulation training in the Taixu Illusion Realm, only those with the best results can appear on the warship.
It seemed that they didn't do anything special during the entire battle except providing mana.
In fact, every order issued by Tianyu must be executed by them.
Which barrel turns which direction? When does it fire? Which system does the mana or essence go to?
It seemed that as soon as Tianyu thought about it, the entire number of warships responded.
In fact, they are the ones manipulating everything behind the scenes.
As for Long Jia and the others, as high-end combat forces, they have no time to participate in this kind of training, so they need to go to a special room.
After they were connected to the Taixu Illusion Realm, their only role was to provide true energy.
After all, they don't know how to operate the battleship. If they join in rashly, it will drag down the overall power of the battleship.
But they have a high level of cultivation. A Purple Mansion True Person is at least equivalent to thousands of mid-stage Qi training cultivators, and a Golden Core True Lord is equivalent to tens of thousands.
What's more, Ling Jiuxiao is one of the stronger ones among Zifu No. 7 Middle School, not to mention the Dragon Armor.
The addition of several people can increase the battleship's ultimate capacity by one third.
Thinking of this, he flew up on his sword and into the air, making sure that every Immortal Dynasty monk who got off the warship could see him.
Then he said, "Congratulations on your brilliant victory. To commend you, each soldier who participated in the battle will receive 500 contributions."
"Oh--"
"Long live the Emperor's son!"
……
Five hundred contributions is definitely not a small number, especially for these cultivators in the middle stage of Qi training.
With this contribution, they can quickly improve their cultivation to the late stage of Qi training, even though they were basically mortals before.
But after joining the Immortal Dynasty, through daily study in the Taixu Illusionary Realm, they have already realized how important cultivation is.
Not to mention the distant future, just the fact that life span is doubled after building the foundation is enough to make everyone yearn for it.
"Not only that, I have decided to establish today as the first festival of the Immortal Dynasty, the Triumphal Festival, to celebrate this great victory."
When the cheers from below died down a bit, Fang Chen announced another thing.
Not many people responded this time.
Everyone looked at each other, most with confusion on their faces.
It’s not that they don’t know what festivals are, but most of them come from poor backgrounds, and in the past, those festivals had nothing to do with them.
Therefore, I didn't feel much joy when I heard about the festival.
Fang Chen had anticipated this.
He didn't say anything else and controlled the flying sword to fall to the ground.
The Immortal Dynasty has not yet been officially established.
But during this year, the concept of the Immortal Dynasty has already been deeply rooted in people's hearts.
So the festival is to prepare for the Immortal Dynasty.
It doesn't matter even if it doesn't work now.
"Brother Fang, how are we going to celebrate this Triumphal Festival? Is there anything fun?"
As soon as he landed, Ling Mengqiu rushed up and asked curiously.
Fang Chen smiled. It seemed that the person who was most interested in the festival was the outsider Ling Mengqiu.
"certainly--"
Under Ling Mengqiu's excited gaze, Fang Chen said the following: "No."
"Ah? Then what's the point of establishing this festival?"
Ling Mengqiu became depressed instantly.
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. According to my plan, all the people of the Immortal Dynasty can rest for a day during the Triumphal Festival, and I will award medals to the meritorious immortal soldiers at night."
Seeing her like this, Fang Chen smiled and told her his plan.
The Triumphal Festival is related to victory in war, and the festival activities certainly cannot be separated from the immortal soldiers.
He thought of awarding honors to meritorious people.
Festivals are culture, and awarding honors is honor. For the development of the Immortal Dynasty, he wants to engrave joining the Immortal Army and gaining honor into the culture of the Immortal Dynasty.
Only in this way can we unite as one and fight against the Demonic Alliance.
The Demon Cultivator Alliance is a behemoth, and behind it stands the Holy Clan, and possibly the Immortal Emperor mentioned by Yue Yunni.
Only by defeating it can the world of cultivation be saved.
This is bound to be a long struggle.
Therefore, the Xian Dynasty needs military force.
"A day off? I'm afraid the production of many spiritual plants in the Immortal Dynasty will be reduced."
Having stayed in the Xian Dynasty for more than a year and growing up with almost the entire dynasty, Ling Mengqiu also knows the Xian Dynasty very well.
The foundation for the existence of the Immortal Dynasty enables Fang Chen to provide a large number of moonlight spiritual plants, which in turn allows the Immortal Dynasty to have enough spiritual energy to support the practice of everyone.
On this basis, a large number of spiritual plants are planted and alchemists are trained in batches to improve their cultivation.
As long as Fang Chen can continue to provide moonlight spiritual plants, the wheel will keep rolling until the Immortal Dynasty grows into a behemoth.
The only problem is that growing spiritual plants requires real spiritual fields, otherwise they need monks to take care of them every day.
Although one day less will not cause withering, it will inevitably lead to a decline in quality and a reduction in yield.
"The spiritual fields in the Immortal Residence no longer need to be taken care of, so the current Immortal Dynasty can afford such a loss."
Fang Chen certainly knew all this, but most of the spiritual fields in the Immortal Dynasty are now cultivated in the Immortal Residence. With the help of the restrictions of the Five Elements Planting Spell, they can absorb spiritual energy and take care of the spiritual fields on their own without the need for cultivators to guard them.
The Immortal Dynasty is also gradually changing the spiritual fields outside the Immortal Residence to plant spiritual plants with long growth cycles and no need for care. The loss caused by taking a day off during the festival will not be great.
Moreover, after preparing for war for so long, it is time for the people of the Immortal Dynasty to take a break.
"That's good!"
Hearing that the impact was not significant, Ling Mengqiu did not think deeply about the reasons and went to find his father happily.
"The little girl is really energetic."
Tianyu, who had been silent all the time, looked at Fang Chen and complained at the same time.
"Speaking of which, if you want to award medals, you have to make medals in advance. You haven't prepared anything yet, but you set up this triumphal festival. What are you going to do for the awarding of medals tonight?"
After the joke, Tianyu started talking about business.
"It's simple. We'll hold the awarding ceremony in the Grand Illusionary Realm first. As for the physical medal, we can make it up later."
Since the festival was established, Fang Chen had of course prepared countermeasures long ago.
"good idea."
Tianyu nodded, this was indeed a good idea.
"Old Xu, just follow the notice I just gave. From now until tomorrow morning, everyone can rest, but don't forget to attend the soldiers' medal awarding ceremony after dinner."
Fang Chen turned to look at Xu Qiyun again and asked him to inform everyone about the Triumph Festival.
"Don't worry, Lord Emperor, I will announce this matter in the Grand Illusionary Realm right now."
As Fang Chen's deputy, Xu Qiyun often knew what to do and when.
The information has already been edited, so you can just publish it.
As a high-ranking official in the Immortal Dynasty, he can directly use the announcement capability of the Taixu Illusion Realm to pass this message to anyone in the Taixu Illusion Realm.
After the news spreads from person to person, every citizen of the Immortal Dynasty will get the news.
"Hurry up and enter the illusory world."
As soon as the message was sent out, a soldier who got off the warship excitedly said to others.
Then everyone looked at him like an idiot.
"How do we enter the Great Illusionary Realm? We haven't exchanged our spirit mirrors, and we're not in the Immortal Residence right now. If you have anything to say, can't you just tell us directly?"
"Sorry, sorry, I was just too excited. It's related to the Triumphal Festival that the Emperor mentioned just now. An announcement was made in the Grand Illusionary Realm that we can rest for the whole day today. We don't have to do anything, but we can still get the same contribution as when we were working."
"What? Great!"
"Long live the emperor's son!"
"Long live!"
When the soldiers heard the news from the illusory world relayed by this man, they cheered.
"Don't worry. Also, the Emperor said that he will personally award us the honors tonight."
"Honored? What does that mean?"
"I do not know either."
"I don't know why you are so excited?"
"Hey, it won't be a bad thing anyway, why can't I be excited."
"makes sense."
……
In this way, the news spread from one person to ten people, and from ten to a hundred people. Even if some people did not exchange their spiritual mirrors and could not enter the illusory world of Taixu anytime and anywhere, they also learned about the Triumph Festival.
The belated cheers were also made up at this time.
"The people's hearts can be used."
Looking at this scene, Tianyu gave his evaluation.
The time soon came to night.
The illusory world was crowded with people.
At this time in the past, they needed to attend evening classes and practice compulsory cultivation.
But today is a holiday, so both of these have been cancelled.
What replaced it was an awarding ceremony that no one had ever heard of.
For this purpose, the original podium was enlarged a little bit so that more people could stand on it. The blackboard was also decorated and continuously played today's victory scenes.
Although they couldn't see the trick, the scene of the warship's light killing a Jindan demon cultivator and Tianyu controlling the warship to make the Yuanying True King run around in circles still made the people of the Immortal Dynasty excited.
They didn't have much entertainment in the past.
After joining the Immortal Dynasty, he immediately entered a state of preparation for war. Apart from work, he studied and practiced every day.
This kind of gathering to watch a movie really allows them to relax. They don’t have to think about anything and just need to cheer when their side has the upper hand.
The scene of victory was repeated countless times, and the content of the picture began to change. Fang Chen appeared on the screen and announced to everyone:
"Fellow citizens of the Immortal Dynasty, after a year of hard preparation, we have accumulated enough strength to resist the Demon Cultivator Alliance. Their vanguard troops were defeated by our formations and warships. This is a victory for all of us!"
"Oh--"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people of the Immortal Dynasty in the Taixu Illusionary Realm also cheered together.
Just as Fang Chen said, each of them has contributed to the war, so the victory of this war will belong to everyone.
"So, please allow me to present you with a victory medal as a reward!"
The cheers stopped, Fang Chen waved his hand, and a colorful ribbon and a gold star-shaped medal appeared next to him.
At the same time, this medal also appeared in front of everyone in the Taixu Illusionary Realm.
Fang Chen hung the medal in his hand on his chest, and these medals were automatically hung on everyone's chest.
That’s right, awarding the first medal to all the people of the Immortal Dynasty was something he had long thought of, and it was only natural to do so.
"Oh--"
After discovering there was an extra medal on his chest, there were even louder cheers at the scene.
Next, the battleship medals were awarded to the 300,000 mid-stage Qi training monks on the battleship. The medals were still colorful ribbons, but in the middle of the Venus pattern, a clear miniature of the battleship could be seen.
There are also triumphal medals of Tianyu, Longjia, Ye Qingyang, Ling Jiuxiao and Yue Liuli.
It has the same design style, with colorful ribbons and a gold star medal, but the gold star has not only a miniature of a battleship, but also different images.
Tianyu’s is a formation pattern, Longjia’s is a pangolin, Ye Qingyang’s is the wind, Ling Jiuxiao’s is a sword, and Yue Liuli’s is a bright moon.
This is a medal specially customized for them.
The issuance of each medal is accompanied by the never-ending cheers of Taixu Fantasy Land.
So much so that the awarding ceremony, which lasted just half an hour, caused countless people of the Immortal Dynasty to discuss it for ten days, and they were still very interested.
But on this day, a person no one expected walked out of the Lingxiao Sword Sect's transmission channel.
Or two.
One of them is Ling Jiuxiao’s wife, Du Yu’e, who is also a True Person of Zifu.
It’s just that she would come to the Xian Dynasty occasionally, so it’s not surprising that she would appear here.
But she was holding a young man who was covered in wounds. Coincidentally, Fang Chen was looking down from the bamboo building and immediately discovered her.
"Zhou Xingyun?"
After seeing the young man's face clearly, Fang Chen's eyes widened, and then he immediately reacted and jumped off the balcony of the bamboo building.
I have to catch the high-speed train soon. I stayed up all night yesterday and typed 4,000 words. I plan to sleep on the high-speed train and it will take eight hours to get home.
