Chapter 171

Gu Shanhe returned to the second floor of the villa and closed the door.

Consciousness sank into the system, and he began to make final preparations for the debut of the "Beauty List".

He not only had to perfect the list content, but also design every link of the "live press conference" to ensure the shocking effect was full.

Time passed quietly.

At the beginning of the Si hour (9 am), the largest drill ground outside Xianyang Palace was already bustling with noise, heavily guarded.

Thousands of elite Weiwei soldiers wearing black armor and holding long halberds formed several alert lines on the periphery, separating the core area of the huge drill ground from the civilian viewing area on the periphery.

In the field, hundreds of cushions had been placed according to the rank of officials.

At the very front, there was a row of temporary low couches and cases, which were prepared for top power-holders like the Emperor, princes and princesses, and the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers.

The civilian viewing area on the periphery was even more crowded with tens of thousands of Xianyang people who rushed to hear the news, black and dense.

Everyone was looking forward to it, discussing excitedly in low voices.

"Have you heard? That Immortal Gu living in the 'Glazed Immortal Palace' is going to open the Sky Screen again!"

"This time it's inventorying beauties! My god, what kind of beauty will the beauties rated by the Immortal be?"

"Exactly! Last time that Sky Screen, although we didn't see it clearly, that movement, that golden light, is definitely a true god!"

"The Emperor and the officials are all here, it can't be fake! Look, over there!"

Only to see Ying Zheng's carriage driving into the drill ground under the guard of the Imperial Guard.

Ying Zheng specially changed into a more solemn black imperial robe today, wearing a Tongtian crown, and walked down the carriage with the support of eunuchs.

Behind him were more than twenty princes and princesses, and several concubines in the harem with ranks (wearing veils or sitting in carriages with curtains).

Further behind, led by Chancellor Li Si, General Wang Jian, Shangqing Meng Yi, and Tingwei Feng Quji, a large crowd of civil and military officials entered the field in order according to their ranks, each sitting in their designated positions.

Everyone had a solemn expression, but couldn't hide their excitement and anticipation, their eyes glancing from time to time at the three-zhang-high temporary high platform in the field.

The high platform was based on giant wood, covered with red felt, and there was nothing else on it, making it even more mysterious.

The third quarter of the Si hour was approaching.

The field gradually quieted down, and even the people on the periphery held their breath, countless gazes focused on the high platform.

Just at this moment, Gu Shanhe in the villa moved his mind.

"System, activate the effect 'Immortal Demeanor · Basic Version', and exchange and use 'Heavenly Sound Mighty' amplification effect (covering the whole field), 'Step by Step Lotus' entry effect (simplified version)."

【Command confirmed. Activate "Immortal Demeanor" effect, consuming 1 million emotional value points.】

【Exchange and use auxiliary effects, consuming 1 million emotional value points.】

【Host's current emotional value balance: 16 million points】

【Effects loading...】

Above the drill ground, the originally clear sky suddenly gathered faint, milky white clouds, and the sunlight passed through the clouds, casting soft and holy brilliance.

A clear breeze blew across the field, bringing a refreshing, indescribable exotic fragrance (simulated), making people feel refreshed.

"Look! In the sky!"

Someone pointed to the sky above the high platform and whispered.

Only to see the void above the high platform ripple like water waves, and a figure in a moon-white wide-sleeved robe appeared out of thin air without warning, as if he had always been there.

It was Gu Shanhe.

Under the blessing of the "Immortal Demeanor" effect, his whole body was shrouded in a layer of visible, soft and non-dazzling glowing white light, like moonlight condensed.

His clothes and hair moved without wind, fluttering lightly, his temperament otherworldly, like a banished immortal walking out of a painting.

He stepped on the void, as if there were invisible stairs under his feet, step by step, calmly descending.

Every step he took, a faint golden lotus phantom flashed in the void under his feet, then dissipated.

"Step by step lotus! It's really step by step lotus!"

"Immortal! Immortal Gu has descended!"

"Silence! Hush!"

Exclamations arose in the field, then were suppressed by the military officer's sharp shout.

But the shock and awe in everyone's eyes had reached the peak.

Even Ying Zheng, Li Si and others near the high platform were shaken in heart and mind, and had no more doubt about Gu Shanhe's "Immortal" identity.

Gu Shanhe landed slowly in the center of the high platform, the holy light around him slightly restrained, but that otherworldly temperament still made people dare not look directly.

He swept his gaze peacefully across the audience, and although he didn't deliberately raise his volume, his clear and calm voice clearly entered everyone's ears, even the tens of thousands of people on the periphery, as if ringing directly in their ears:

"Heavenly Dao has order, all living beings have spirits. Red faces become bones, blue history leaves names."

"Today I follow the heart of heaven, open the Gold List again, inventory the romantic figures of the past and present, to treat the Myriad Worlds."

"The theme of this list has been set, and it will be projected to the heavens in a few days."

"This list, named: 【Beauty List, Inventory of the Eight Great Beauties in History】."

As the voice fell, Gu Shanhe raised his right hand and supported it vaguely.

A scroll three feet long, one foot wide, and three inches thick, made of unknown material with golden light flowing, appeared above his palm.

The two ends of the scroll had jade axis heads, with faint dragon and phoenix phantoms entwined, emitting a vast, majestic, and ancient aura.

"Gold List! It's the Gold List!"

"Same as the Gold List that appeared on the Sky Screen last time! No, this one is more real!"

"The Immortal is going to release the list on the spot!"

Under the gaze of countless fiery eyes, Gu Shanhe threw the Gold List upward lightly.

The Gold List left his hand, did not fall, but as if it had spirituality, turned into a golden streamer and rushed into the sky!

It flew straight to the high altitude of about twenty zhang above the ground before stopping abruptly.

The next moment—

"Clatter——"

The Gold List unfolded in the high altitude, facing the wind, instantly turning into a huge golden light screen more than ten zhang long and about three zhang wide.

Finally, it hovered above the drill ground, shining brightly, illuminating the hair and beards of the crowd below!

On the light screen, clouds were lingering, auspicious energy was thousands of strands, and in the center were eight ancient and majestic seal characters that seemed to contain the truth of the Great Dao:

Heavenly Dao Gold List

Below the big characters, slightly smaller fonts wrote:

First List · Beauty List

This shocking scene was not only clearly seen by Ying Zheng and his ministers in the Xianyang drill ground and the Xianyang people outside the field.

At the same moment, in the Han, Tang, Song, Ming, Qing... all historical planes that had received the "Top Ten Virtuous Empress List" videos, above the firmament, the same huge Gold List, slightly illusory but still clear, slowly unfolded, spanning the sky!

Myriad Worlds synchronized, Gold List reappears!

At this moment, no matter which dynasty, which time and space, countless people put down their work, rushed out of the house, looked up at the sky, their faces full of shock, joy, and anticipation.

"Gold List! The Heavenly Dao Gold List has appeared again!"

"Beauty List? This time it's inventorying beauties?!"

"Quick! Quick, call the master/mistress/young master out to watch!"

"I wonder which dynasty's beauty will be selected this time?"
