Chapter 225 Money Touches People's Hearts
One after another, there have been signs of anomalies appearing, and more and more people are gaining opportunities.
Both the outer ring and the inner palace of the Langxuan Heavenly Palace were stirred up by this situation.
The high-ranking officials in charge of governance urgently held consultations.
Yan Shu, along with the heads and deputy heads of the nine major immortal peaks, gathered together. The Ten Peaks Conference has become the institution in the Langxuan Heavenly Palace that exercises power second only to the Holy Lord.
Yan Shu, as the acting palace manager and the leader of the orthodox faction led by the Langxuan Peak, occupied the main seat in the main hall.
There should have been two deputy peak masters on her left and right.
However, one of the deputy peak masters is her junior brother, the Holy Son of the Langxuan Heavenly Palace, a cultivation maniac who never attends meetings.
The position of the other deputy peak master has been vacant, resulting in only Yan Shu representing the Langxuan Peak.
The representatives of the other nine major immortal peaks sat in a semicircle, sitting in the middle of the main hall, opposite to her.
"First, there were several caves in the hidden immortal cave of the outer ring, then several immortal tombs in the group of immortal tombs in the inner palace. Recently, the relics that have been frequently experiencing anomalies have caused one disturbance after another. It is indeed unusual.
This meeting is to ask the senior uncles and senior brothers of each immortal peak how they view this matter."
Yan Shu spoke first, with a certain demeanor, but her tone was too gentle, giving a sense of caution not to anger others.
The peak master of the Lingqi Peak sneered inwardly at the weakness of the palace affairs agent and casually said, "The Lingshu Peak and the Lingji Peak have always been quite knowledgeable about the various relics of the Heavenly Palace. Perhaps they have already made some discoveries?"
Among the nine immortal peaks, the Lingqi Peak, the Lingfu Peak, and the Lingdan Peak are relatively close in relationship. This is probably because these three peaks possess core competencies and are the wealthiest peaks in the Langxuan Heavenly Palace. They also have many prestigious families and share a common language with each other.
In comparison, the Lingxi Peak, the Lingshu Peak, the Lingji Peak, and the Lingjue Peak lean more towards the orthodox faction of the Langxuan Peak. They are more inclined towards spending money and focusing on research and technological development. They rely on the Langxuan Peak as the central hub to allocate resources to sustain themselves.
The Linyan Peak is relatively inconspicuous because it is the weakest in strength. They specialize in divination and other things that most people do not understand. They are not familiar with the other immortal peaks.
The situation at the Lingjian Peak is the most complicated. It is filled with young and ambitious martial arts factions, and it has the largest number of outstanding disciples among all the immortal peaks. It is the stronghold of the outstanding disciples faction and holds great dissatisfaction towards the harmonious orthodox faction and the self-interested prestigious families.
It is normal for the peak master of the Lingqi Peak to have a distant attitude towards the Lingshu Peak and the Lingji Peak and take the opportunity to make some sarcastic remarks.
The peak master of the Lingji Peak calmly said, "There are no new discoveries. We haven't thoroughly studied the Shahe Ling relics that were opened a few years ago. How can we have the energy to study other relics?"
The Shahe Ling is the relic where Fu Yunsheng obtained the ancient flowing sand formation. After the opening of this relic, there were many opportunities.
"However, this time the anomaly in the relic is somewhat unusual and different from the past. Even without in-depth research, just by careful observation, one can notice this," said the peak master of the Lingshu Peak calmly, while also looking down upon the peak master of the Lingqi Peak.
The peak master of the Lingqi Peak was not angry and asked, "What do you mean?"
The peak master of the Lingshu Peak said, "Haven't you noticed that this time the anomaly in the relic is particularly complete, and there is a special connection between the relics where the anomalies occur?"
The peak master of the Lingqi Peak is not without knowledge. With a hint, he pondered for a while and suddenly realized, "Indeed, the previous anomalies in the relics often appeared distorted and not so solid and lifelike."
If Chu Shen were here, he would be able to explain it to him.
The reason is simple. In the past, when anomalies appeared in the relics, it was not the result of the prohibition being opened normally, but rather the power guarding the relics collapsed under the erosion of time. When it finally became visible, it naturally appeared distorted due to the unnatural dissipation of energy, greatly affecting the integrity of the remaining items in the relics.
But this time is different. Chu Shen carefully selected a batch of related relics to use as bait.
Sure enough, the peak master of the Lingqi Peak continued, "Not only that, if one carefully deduces the anomalies in the relics this time, they will find a hidden connection between them."
The peak master of the Lingqi Peak remained silent, but the peak master of the Lingshu Peak, who was close to him, spoke up, "What hidden connection?"
The peak master of the Lingqi Peak glanced at the two of them and said, "Are you so busy making spiritual stones that you have forgotten even the most basic common knowledge?"
...Seeking flowers...
They felt despised!
Both the peak master of the Lingqi Peak and the peak master of the Lingshu Peak were unhappy. The way he said it made it seem like they were only interested in money!
Yan Shu quickly intervened, "Master, I am ignorant and don't understand the intricacies. Please enlighten me."
The peak master of the Ling Arts Peak furrowed his brows slightly and sighed inwardly. This Holy Maiden is still too inexperienced. It's hard to understand why the Holy Lord would entrust her with palace affairs.
I only hope that when the Holy Lord emerges from seclusion, the internal balance can still be maintained.
"I'll give you a hint. Take a look at the relics that appeared in succession this time. Who do they belong to?"
The peak master of the Spirit Sword Peak is a straightforward man who can't stand the scheming and intrigue of these people. He directly said, "I understand. First, it was the Mountain God Lingyang Jun, then the Golden Water River Dragon King, followed by the Mountain God of Many Rocks, and the Mountain God of Wu Yun Mountain... Recently, the Divine Lady of Dongtai has also appeared. They are all deities of the Nanhua Emperor's lineage from the ancient Heavenly Court era!"

The people present were all moved.
According to the records in the collection of the Langxuan Heavenly Palace, in the ancient Heavenly Court era, the Supreme Heavenly Emperor held the power of the Heavenly Court, with the Central Immortal Court assisting in governing the heavens and all realms.
However, the jurisdiction of the ancient Heavenly Court was too vast, so it was divided into nine heavens and ten earths. Nineteen Emperor Gods were appointed, and the Nanhua Emperor was one of the ten earth Emperor Gods, in charge of the Nanhua ancient land.
However, after the ancient Heavenly Court was destroyed, Dongxuan Heaven experienced many changes in the heavens and the earth. The specific location of the Nanhua ancient land is no longer known, only remnants of ancient texts recorded ancient place names and ancient deities who assisted the Nanhua Emperor in managing these regions.
Whether it's Lingyang Jun, the Golden Water River Dragon King, or the Mountain God of Many Rocks and other deities, they are all subordinate deities of the Nanhua Emperor.
"Could it be that the Emperor's Mausoleum of the Nanhua Emperor is about to open?"
The peak master of the Lingjue Peak stood up suddenly, his face filled with astonishment.
"There is a possibility," the peak master of the Ling Arts Peak said calmly due to their shared camp. "However, after some historical research by our Ling Arts Peak, we believe that the probability is relatively low. The higher probability is that the soon-to-be-opened relic will belong to one of the four guardians under the Nanhua Emperor."
