As the host and the champion, Wang Can had a lot of things to do. After entering the venue, he excused himself and went to work.
One hour later, Wang Can reappeared by my side. He repeatedly apologized and said that the other problems were almost solved. "Is there anything I need?" I asked.
I didn't need anything, but because this banquet was after the Heavenly Grand Ritual, a question popped up in my mind while I was wandering around. I was eager to know the answer.
The competition of the Heavenly Grand Ritual was never the goal, but the method to determine the right to use the True Dragon Veins.
"Since it's a competition, there are bound to be winners and losers. If you win enough battles, your original Blessed Land can climb to the top of the 36 Lesser Paradises, or even the 10 Greater Paradises. Lu Zhenyang's Spiritual Mountain Blessed Land and Lin Xue's Mang Mountain Blessed Land are the representatives of such winners. This means that the number of True Dragon Veins they have will increase from one to two or even three. However, if they lose in the competition, they will have to hand over the True Dragon Veins that belong to them. If I remember correctly, among the 10 Greater Paradises, Cang Mountain Grotto, which was previously ranked 10th, was defeated by Lu Zhenyang and fell from the top of the 10 Greater Paradises to the 36 Lesser Paradises. This means that they will have to hand over the resources that they used to have. I wonder which family is so lucky to be able to obtain the True Dragon Veins from them.
It wasn't difficult to understand the rules, but I didn't understand how the True Dragon Veins would be moved when they were divided.
Over the years, I have seen quite a number of True Dragon Veins. The True Dragon Veins of the Fire God Temple, the True Dragon Veins of the Metaphysical Society headquarters, and the half of the True Dragon Veins left behind by Minister Wen back then.
Although the True Dragon Veins were different in size, they were all huge creatures that couldn't be moved by human power. Even a top Yang God Celestial Master like Hu Yurong couldn't do it.
I asked Wang Can as I pondered, "Last time, you told me that after the Allheaven Grand Competition, the Blessed Paradises would have a new ranking and the ownership of the True Dragon Veins would be redistributed.
I didn't ask much at that time, but I didn't understand. The positions of the Blessed Paradises wouldn't change, but if the True Dragon Veins were redistributed, it would definitely involve the movement of the True Dragon Veins. How do you move the True Dragon Veins in the Blessed Paradises? "
The reason why I'm asking this question is not because I don't have an objective in mind.
So far, I've only seen one thing that can move the true dragon vein, and that's the jade bracelet that Bi 'an gave me.
If the blessed lands could also move the True Dragon Vein, then they would definitely have something similar to the jade bracelet. Perhaps there was a connection between the two.
Moreover, when Tong Tong was residing in the jade bracelet, she told me that she had seen a woman who looked similar to Tao Wu in the jade bracelet. Therefore, all these years, I have always felt that there is a great secret hidden in the jade bracelet, and this secret is related to Tao Wu.
If he could find out the secret of the jade bracelet, he might be able to solve the secret of Lao Ai.
Although I didn't spend much time with Lao Ai, we had a very good relationship. But who exactly was Lao Ai? Why was she imprisoned in the underground palace? Why didn't the damned Heavenly Dao allow me to be with her? There were too many secrets in all of this.
Until now, I knew nothing about these secrets, and Bi was obviously worried about something and was unwilling to tell me, so I had to find the answers on my own.
After hearing my question, Officer Wang kept silent for a while. Then, he smiled and said to me, "I don't need to answer this question. The Sage will know it later.
I just told the Sage that the redistribution of the True Dragon Veins will be settled at today's banquet. This is not just a nominal division based on the new rankings, but even the subsequent distribution and movement will be completed at this banquet. "
The division and movement of the True Dragon Vein will be completed at the banquet?
Subconsciously, I felt that it was impossible, but Officer Wang was so sure that he wouldn't lie to me.
I wanted to ask more questions, but Officer Wang seemed to have some problems. He excused himself and left.
As the main character of today's banquet, it was inevitable that Officer Wang was busy. I didn't want to stop him, so I let him go. Then, I searched around the venue, trying to find something related to the movement of the True Dragon Vein or the jade bracelet. However, after searching for a long time, I didn't find any clues.
While I was searching, a young man suddenly appeared in front of me, blocking my way.
He was wearing an exquisite black suit and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, which made him look like a business elite. Standing in front of me, he raised the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that Mr. Zhou would also come to this banquet. In this Allheaven Competition, Mr. Zhou hasn't lost a single match. Brother Wang was able to keep his position, and Mr. Zhou has made great contributions.
You're really a young talent! "This man looked familiar. Officer Wang had introduced him to me at the banquet before the Heavenly Grand Ritual. His name was Jiang Ziwen, the master of the Heavenly Eye Paradise, one of the thirty-six Paradises. In terms of wealth, he was the well-deserved leader of the Paradise.
Did he come here to see me?
This man didn't look much older than me, but he called me a young talent, which made me a little uncomfortable. However, due to his relationship with Officer Wang, I didn't say anything. I just politely replied to him, trying to brush him off. After getting my reply, he seemed to be excited. He moved a stool next to me and sat down. It seemed that he wanted to have a long talk with me.
After sitting down, he continued to talk to me. "Mr. Zhou, you have such great strength. May I know who your Master is and where do you cultivate?
Why haven't I heard of your name in the Paradise? "
Officer Wang was still busy, and I couldn't find anything related to the jade bracelet in the banquet hall. So, I simply chatted with him and answered with a smile, "I'm just a rogue cultivator in the mortal world. Brother Jiang, you're from the Paradise, so it's not strange that you haven't heard of me."
After chatting for a while, Jiang Ziwen became even more intimate. He called Zhou Donghuang "Brother Zhou," and continued, "Brother Zhou, you are mistaken. With your cultivation, you would be dazzling enough even in the Blessed Paradise. How could you be a nobody?
I'm not talented, but I run a small business in Suzhou and Hangzhou. I know a lot about the affairs of the mortal world. May I know where you live? "
Where do you live?
I glanced at him. I didn't know what he meant, but I still nodded and answered, "Shenzhen!"
Jiang Ziwen smiled. "Then, we're not far from each other. If I have time in the future, I'll visit you in Shenzhen. At that time, I'll have a long talk with you."
This man was strange, but I noticed that he was just at the Seal Realm, which was similar to me. I didn't mind him too much. After exchanging some pleasantries, I sent him away.
Not long after Jiang Ziwen left, Officer Wang came.
People were in good spirits, so Officer Wang was smiling. When he saw me, he said, "Sage, weren't you curious about how the True Dragon Vein moves?
Look at the platform and you'll know. "
I looked at the platform, and I couldn't take my eyes off it.
I didn't know when, but a huge stone tablet had appeared on the empty platform.
The stele was divided into three layers from top to bottom, and each layer had ten or even dozens of small grids. Among these grids, some had one dot of light, some had two or three dots, but the most was no more than four dots.
I understood at a glance that it was the ranking of the Allheaven Competition that had just ended!
The top ten grids of the stone tablet were engraved with the names Wangwu Grotto-Heaven, Xicheng Mountain Grotto-Heaven, Weiyu Mountain Grotto-Heaven, and Lingshan Grotto-Heaven. The lower two layers were the rankings of the new 36 Minor Grotto-Heavens and the 72 Paradise.
Because of my agreement with Han Wennan, the Xicheng Mountain Grotto-Heaven had only risen one rank, from the third to the second, suppressing its old rival, the Weiyu Mountain Grotto-Heaven. Then, it was Zhao Hao's Xuande Grotto-Heaven. Since I had injured his arm, he didn't get the first place. Instead, he didn't even enter the top three, becoming the fourth.
As for Lu Zhenyang's Spiritual Mountain Paradise, because it rose from the seventy-two Blessed Lands to become the fifth of the Ten Great Grotto-Heavens, it changed its name to Spiritual Mountain Paradise. Its ranking is only below the four of us.
Then, it was the 36 Minor Grotto-Heavens.
Originally, Xuande Grotto-Heaven was the first of the 36 Minor Grotto-Heavens. However, because Zhao Hao had come prepared this year, he had killed his way into the top ten Grotto-Heavens. As a result, the Kuocang Mountain Grotto-Heaven, which had just fallen out of the top ten Grotto-Heavens, became the new Heavenly Grotto-Heaven. Then, the Three Emperors Well Grotto-Heaven also followed, rising a lot above its original ranking …
I skimmed through the rankings and found something strange.
Jiang Ziwen's Tianmu Grotto-Heaven had also risen from the 36 Minor Grotto-Heavens to the top ten Grotto-Heavens. Although it was at the tenth place, the gap was so big that it couldn't be measured by just one rank.
Of course, what I cared about the most wasn't the rankings, but the distribution of the True Dragon Veins. Why did Officer Wang show me this thing?
Could it be that this stone tablet was like the jade bracelet that could absorb and move the True Dragon Veins?
Officer Wang saw my doubt and explained to me with a smile, "This tablet is called the Dragon Sealing Tablet. It can mobilize the power of the True Dragon Veins. It will determine the distribution of the True Dragon Veins according to the latest ranking of the Heavenly Grand Ritual every year.
Not only that, but it will also classify the True Dragon Veins according to their strength and condition. Then, it will automatically distribute the True Dragon Veins.
Of course, the most important thing is that after the tablet redistributes the True Dragon Veins, they don't need to move the True Dragon Veins. The True Dragon Veins in each Grotto-Heaven will automatically move! "
I was shocked and dumbfounded.
The True Dragon Veins will automatically move?
Although the rankings wouldn't change too much in each Allheaven Competition, even the slightest change would cause countless True Dragon Veins to move. Some of the Grotto-Heavens and Blessed Lands were close to each other, but most of them were far away from each other. With just this stone tablet, the huge True Dragon Veins could move thousands of miles in an instant and redistribute … How was that possible?
