Monster Chronicles: My Daoist Skill Comes from Mythology-Chapter 729 - 629: Enfeoffing the Vassals, Opening a New World

"Yuanshi Tianzun? Kunlun Mirror?"

Song Lin exclaimed.

Was his own Monster Chronicles actually of such origin?

"That's right, before Yuanshi Tianzun disappeared, he said that the Kunlun Mirror shouldn't fall into the hands of the wicked, or it would be a great catastrophe for the vast universe. Thus, he shattered and reforged the Kunlun Mirror, but nobody knows where it ended up."

"Since you, Master, have the ability to traverse time and space, under heaven, only the Kunlun Mirror has such a capability."

Hou Yi explained.

Song Lin still found it hard to believe that it was the power of the Kunlun Mirror.

However, it indeed resembled the Monster Chronicles, yet the imagery couldn't be associated with the mythic Kunlun Mirror.

"Who were the wicked Yuanshi Tianzun referred to?"

"Not sure, but at least a Golden Immortal."

Soon, everyone tidied up the battlefield and returned, and the two of them stopped talking.

It wasn't that he didn't trust them, but mainly this secret was too significant, and if others found out, those in the know would also be at risk.

Song Lin simply arranged matters for everyone, then left there and went with Hou Yi to the garden here.

This was the first reunion for the two after countless ages.

Song Lin looked Hou Yi up and down; this young fellow had also become a True Immortal, it seemed he had grown quite a bit, and he felt very gratified.

But judging by his appearance, he had also suffered quite a bit over the years.

"Have you been doing well these years?" Song Lin asked.

"Not bad, thanks for your concern, Master."

Upon hearing Song Lin's words, Hou Yi felt a twinge in his nose, almost bursting into tears.

After enduring for millions of years, countless times on the brink of despair, and many sacrifices from his fellow Taoists, he had long honed a heart of stone, but suddenly hearing a word of concern from his Master touched Hou Yi's soft heart.

Song Lin sighed deeply, patted Hou Yi on the shoulder, and smiled, "It's okay now, your Master will back you up in the future."

"This disciple is not tired."

Hou Yi's heart was filled with indescribable emotions, having hoped for many years, and now it had all come true, yet suddenly it felt somewhat unreal.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Hou Yi spoke again:

"Before her Harmonization, the Queen Mother achieved the Dao Fruit of the Daluo Immortal. She said you might not be able to find her in the future."

"Why?"

Despite being close to a Golden Immortal, Song Lin still didn't understand much about them.

"A Golden Immortal is unique across all worlds, the only one in the long river of history."

If someone is not a Golden Immortal, they can still see the person in their youth by traveling back in time.

But a Golden Immortal is different; after achieving Golden Immortal, one transcends the Three Realms, not within the Five Elements.

They have no past or future, only the present.

"I see."

No wonder the last time he saw Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad, it was only an Avatar, although essence blood restricted the world's power limit, it wasn't impossible to appear.

Previously traveled worlds still had many powerhouses surpassing the world revealing themselves.

So it turns out Golden Immortals are not in the past.

"How did she die?" Song Lin asked.

"Battling with the Yinn Shang Emperor, heavily wounded and succumbed to Harmonization."

"Golden Immortals have no past, so does it mean that even if traveling back in time, it would be impossible to save the Queen Mother?"

Song Lin asked.

"Not exactly, before a Golden Immortal fully Harmonizes, there is still a period where one can travel back."

Thinking of this, Hou Yi took out a palm-sized jade.

On it were carved star patterns.

"What is this?"

"A part of the Luoshu Print, with this, you can arrive at the last moment the Queen Mother was present."

Before her Harmonization, the Queen Mother handed this to Hou Yi, and after speaking, she sent them out into the void, instructing them to wait for Song Lin with this item.

After millions of years, Hou Yi still reminded himself of his mission.

"The Luoshu Print..."

Song Lin was just lacking a Luoshu in River Map and Luoshu.

The River Map and Luoshu together allow one to see through the space-time pattern of the Great Thousand World.

The Monster Chronicles allow time travel, but can't determine coordinates.

If the two are combined, wouldn't it allow arbitrary time travel to any point in the Great Thousand World?

Song Lin put away the item, not in a hurry to test it out.

The confluence of two worlds still left many matters to handle.

Just dealing with two Yangg Jians, one Li Erlang was enough of a headache, these few would definitely end up fighting.

Then there were multiple Four Spirits, Lord Ziwei, and Seven Luminaries.

The Kunlun Heavenly Court would definitely need to divide some to join other small thousand worlds, as there's only one Middle Thousand Seven Luminaries, Taiyin, and Taiyang.

These needed coordination, allocating those who can't compete for positions to other places.

The Kunlun Heavenly Court is relatively ancient, just in terms of cultivation, they can squeeze out most of the original positions.

Obviously, it can't all be based on strength, it requires looking at character and merit too.

While not wanting to discourage these people, Song Lin needs to give them even grander titles.

Finally realizing where all the titles like King, Heavenly Venerate, and Great Emperor in the Heavenly Court came from.

As the Heavenly Court develops to a certain extent, the number of experts increases, people want power or fame.

With limited positions, they can only hand out titles rampantly.

The key problem is not enough small thousand worlds, otherwise letting them stay confined within a small thousand world to amuse themselves would be fine too.

Song Lin pondered long and hard and finally decided on one matter.

"Inform everyone to come to the Palace of the Polestar."

"Understood!"

Hou Yi arrived at the Palace of the Polestar and spread the message to the dharma images stationed there, and within a short time, all parties arrived at the Palace of the Polestar.

"Hou Yi, how many small thousand worlds does the Kunlun Heavenly Court have?"

"Fifteen."

"Good."

Along with the original twelve from the Donghua Heavenly Court, that makes a total of twenty-seven.

"You retain five, and the rest all merge into the Donghua Heavenly Court. Thereafter, you will be crowned as the West Kunlun Emperor, Yaoji as the Queen Mother, and you will oversee the Middle Thousand World of West Kunlun."

Although Hou Yi did not understand, he complied.

"Mao Ying as the Nanmao Mountain Heavenly Emperor, leading the Mao Mountain Heavenly Court."

"Xii Jing as Emperor Dong Fusang, leading the Golden Crow Heavenly Court."

Song Lin planned to divide and bestow titles.

Since there aren't enough positions, and he doesn't want to dispense Divine Artifacts carelessly, dividing the territories is the only option.

With theoretically infinite lifespan and cultivating the invincible within the same realm Primordial Chaos Dao, naturally, he doesn't fear formidable factions growing and coming to challenge him.

After the division of the three peaks, the relationships within the Heavenly Court were finally sorted.

The Donghua Heavenly Court expanded too quickly, causing multiple deities to appear for one position, leading to dissatisfaction over who is primary and who is secondary. If left unchecked, it would be unclear who manages these matters.

Heavenly Mechanism as the chancellor within the court and Shi Yinhua had been racking their brains heavily during this period.

Now that everything was sorted, there was finally clarity on how to arrange tasks.

The merger of the two Heavenly Courts greatly strengthened the Donghua Heavenly Court's influence.

Now was the perfect time for expansion.

In chaotic times, only the Donghua Heavenly Court could establish order.

Song Lin deployed nine teams, heading to the Great Thousand World to conquer small thousand or Medium Thousand, at least to gather enough small thousand worlds for the Donghua Heavenly Court to have a quota of thirty-six.

The number of small thousand worlds corresponds to how many layers the Middle Thousand Earth has, small thousand having thirty-six, naturally the Middle Thousand sky has thirty-six layers.

Once everything was nearly sorted, Song Lin went to the Heavenly Emperor's Back Garden to enter seclusion.

He took out the Luoshu Tablet.

This time opening a new world was different from before; it was the first time for directional travel.
