Chapter 281: Promoting the Popularization of Cultivation

"Six thousand eight hundred people......"

Hua Changxi stood outside the main hall of Lingguang Hall, holding the "Zhu Que Army Roster," overlooking the buildings surrounded by spiritual mist below.

From far to near, outside the gate tower, there were many cultivators wandering and hesitating; on the square behind the gate tower, dozens of cultivators who were burning with desire were struggling to move forward.

Further ahead, on the steps leading to the Transmission Hall, seven or eight figures were struggling against the illusion.

In the Practice Hall opposite the Transmission Hall, more than three thousand rooms were occupied, and the people inside were all focusing on cultivation.

Hua Changxi issued the mission of "Investigate the anomalies in Nanxiang County" and opened the door of the Mission Hall.

Once the mission was entered, the sound of a gong rang out in the lobby of the Mission Hall.

Everyone practicing in the Practice Hall, after hearing the sound, walked out of their rooms one after another, following the sound to find the newly opened Mission Hall.

Lingguang Hall was a five-story building complex towering into the clouds. Located at the highest point was the main hall. One level down were the Law Enforcement Hall and the Merit Hall; further down were the Mission Hall and the Armory; the fourth level was the Martial Arts Hall and the Logistics Department; located at the very bottom were the Transmission Hall and the Martial Practice Hall.

Currently, the halls opened in Lingguang Hall were the Transmission Hall and Martial Practice Hall on the fifth level, the Logistics Department on the fourth level, and the Mission Hall on the third level.

The remaining halls were still in a closed state.

"Look, the Hall Master has issued a mission."

"Investigate the anomalies in Nanxiang County......"

Su Yu looked at the mission issued by the Mission Hall, lost in thought. He thought that the Hall Master had long since noticed the anomalies in Nanxiang County: "Only just found out?"

If so, wouldn't the Hall Master's information channel be very blocked?

Su Yu looked up toward the main hall. Although it was filled with spiritual mist and nothing could be seen, he could feel that someone was standing above looking at them.

No need to think, it must be the Hall Master.

Su Yu looked around at the people. Currently, more and more cultivators were joining the Zhu Que Army. What should he do to stand out among the many people and attract the Hall Master's attention?

Accept the mission to investigate Nanxiang County?

Su Yu frowned. The anomalies in Nanxiang County had actually started long ago, but they had been covered up by the royal family.

Thinking of Prince Fu's strict defense of Nanxiang County, to investigate Nanxiang County, one had to confront the royal family.

The royal family was undoubtedly powerful. After the anomalies in Nanxiang County appeared, they sent dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators to guard it.

In this situation, who dared to move recklessly?

Su Yu's thoughts were also the thoughts of most people present. Those who could break through various obstacles to join the Zhu Que Army at the first opportunity, even if they had no family background, would not be ignorant people.

Hua Changxi looked outside the Mission Hall, where everyone was discussing, but no one stepped forward to accept the mission, and her brows couldn't help but furrow.

"Everyone's enthusiasm is not high enough!"

At the same time, Hua Changxi also realized that although there was the Heart Demon Oath before the Transmission Stele, and she had set up tests on the square and the steps, the Zhu Que Army recruited in this way would still have the phenomenon of uneven quality.

Military orders were like mountains. If one day she really needed to order these Zhu Que Army soldiers to go to the battlefield, would they obey?

Could these people really become qualified Zhu Que Army soldiers?

Just when Hua Changxi was feeling troubled for the Zhu Que Army, the entire Great Jin was in an uproar because display spiritual artifacts had been deployed everywhere, and people learned that the four major holy lands were publicly recruiting disciples.

In the Medical Department, all parties also received the news of the four major holy lands recruiting people one after another.

"No wonder we jointly boycotted her before, Hua Changxi wasn't anxious at all. It turns out she had prepared a backup plan long ago."

"Hua Changxi knew she couldn't compete with us, so she never thought about recruiting apprentices from within the Medical Department and the capital. She was aiming at everyone outside the capital!"

After learning the news, the powerful figures in the capital all felt like they had been played by Hua Changxi.

They felt that their previous joint boycott was like a monkey show. They originally thought they were the ones watching the show, but they didn't expect that they were the monkeys on the stage.

In the Qihuang Pavilion, Prince Shou was so angry he wanted to vomit blood. The royal family could rely on their power to control the people inside the Medical Department and control the people in the capital from joining the Danyuan Secret Realm, but the royal family could not control everyone in Great Jin from not joining the Danyuan Secret Realm.

He knew that the royal family no longer had the power to suppress Hua Changxi.

Once upon a time, the royal family was still the supreme ruler of Great Jin, but now, just wanting to seize control of a secret realm from a commoner of humble origin, they had actually failed!

Prince Shou was too unwilling, unwilling that the authority of the royal family had declined so quickly.

If dealing with Hua Changxi before was just for the Danyuan Secret Realm, now, Prince Shou wanted to kill Hua Changxi.

For no other reason than because her existence made the decline of the royal family undoubtedly clear!

In the Lingjing Pavilion, after Xia Zhen received the news, he also sat silently for a long time.

He discovered that after coming to the Medical Department, he faced more helpless things than in all his previous experiences.

The younger generation like Meng Qingyao were also very silent.

Dongfang Hao summarized where the display spiritual artifacts had appeared, and then discovered that all the densely populated cities in Great Jin had been deployed.

Afterward, he read the recruitment announcement playing in turns on the spiritual artifacts many times.

"Isn't it said that Hua Changxi has always been fighting alone?"

Dongfang Xu immediately answered: "Yes, on the display spiritual artifacts, the four major holy lands are recruiting at the same time. Hua Changxi must have dealings with people from the other three major holy lands."

Meng Qingyao: "Perhaps, Hua Changxi just acts like a loner in the Medical Department."

Jiang Nianyi was in a heavy mood and said coldly: "I used to think that Hua Changxi wore her emotions on her sleeve and had no schemes, but now I find that she hides deeper than anyone else."

Meng Yuchuan and Xia Ziyang nodded in agreement.

Dongfang Hao glanced at Jiang Nianyi, his eyes flickering.

Ever since Hua Changxi guessed the origin of the Jiang family in the No. 2 Qihuang Hall last time, Jiang Nianyi had shown hostility toward Hua Changxi from time to time, and even guided others to be hostile to Hua Changxi......

Outside cultivators?

On the other side, in the Square Old Courtyard, Gu Xing was also shocked by Hua Changxi joining forces with people from the other three major holy lands to issue a recruitment announcement.

He was both happy that Hua Changxi knew how to cooperate with others and surprised by the perspective she displayed.

He really didn't expect that Hua Changxi would recruit people for the Danyuan Secret Realm all over Great Jin.

Such a thing not only required the courage to think but also the support of corresponding resources.

Hua Changxi's recruitment this time was undoubtedly unprecedentedly successful!

Gu Xing smiled and looked toward Danyuan Peak. It seemed that it wouldn't be long before Danyuan Peak welcomed a large batch of apprentices.

In the No. 10 Qihuang Hall, Gu Jinfan sighed: "The four major holy lands publicly recruiting disciples...... what a grand gesture."

The five major holy lands are both the anchor and the weather vane for the Central Continent.

Matters of the holy lands affect the whole body with one hair.

The four major holy lands jointly recruiting disciples is not just promoting the development of the four arts of alchemy, equipment, runes, and arrays; it is to directly trigger the expansion and popularization of cultivation in the Central Continent.

Tang Yufeng, sitting opposite Gu Jinfan, also sighed: "We all underestimated Hua Changxi. The things she does are truly unexpected every time."

In the Heaven Department, after Wei Zhenjie received the news, he was furious: "Too much!"

This frightened Huo Yunxiao, who came to report, and Chu Junyi, who had just returned from the Nine Nether.

Wei Zhenjie was still angry: "Too much! In the Central Continent, the five major holy lands are of one mind. The four major holy lands of alchemy, arrays, runes, and equipment are jointly recruiting, so why was our Central Holy Land left out?"

Seeing that his master was actually concerned about this, Huo Yunxiao and Chu Junyi were no longer anxious.

Wei Zhenjie quickly sent out several messages, and then his expression slowly improved.

Seeing this, Huo Yunxiao whispered to Chu Junyi: "Just wait, soon, the news of the Central Holy Land recruiting will also appear on the display spiritual artifacts."

Chu Junyi smiled and didn't say anything.

After sending messages to the successors of the four major holy lands, Wei Zhenjie had the leisure to look at his two disciples, his mood surprisingly good: "Truly, random punches can beat a master to death."

All parties wanted the resources in the Danyuan Secret Realm, and for this, various conspiracies and means were used in turn. But who would have thought that Hua Changxi would directly throw out a counterattack of publicly recruiting apprentices in various places.

This could be called a duel between an open plot and a conspiracy!

Now, who else could stop Hua Changxi from recruiting apprentices?

Chu Junyi looked curious: "Hua Changxi?" He had heard this name mentioned by his master and senior brother many times.

Wei Zhenjie nodded: "The elder of the Array Saint Sect replied to me. The idea of refining display spiritual artifacts and playing recruitment announcements in turns on the display spiritual artifacts was Hua Changxi's."

Huo Yunxiao smiled: "I guess now even the royal family wouldn't dare to stop Hua Changxi from recruiting people."

Wei Zhenjie hummed: "If the royal family still dares to continue, just wait to ignite the anger of the crowd."

Huo Yunxiao thought to himself, in fact, the royal family had already ignited the anger in the hearts of many people.

The welfare and treatment of the Danyuan Secret Realm actually made many people inside the Medical Department feel tempted. Even if Shenhe Peak, Qingyao Peak, and Xuanhuang Peak provided cultivation techniques, they could not compare with the resources that Danyuan Peak actually distributed to the apprentices.

If the royal family continued to block people from joining Danyuan Peak, it would only make more and more people resent the tyranny of the royal family. In the long run, they would lose the hearts of the people, and even the foundation accumulated in the past would likely be completely consumed. ===== CHAPTER 282 =====
