The imperial capital was brightly lit under the cover of night. Although this new city had only been built for a few years, its population had already reached several million and there were many spiritualists.
—This city is called the Imperial Capital. In addition to the fact that the imperial court is located here, there is another meaning. That is, although Su Yun has never become emperor, everyone knows that he has long wanted to become emperor, so it is called the Imperial Capital.
Under the huge black iron bell outside the city, the skilled craftsmen of Tongtian Tower were still busy adjusting the bell. Under the dim light on the roadside, the short Zuo Songyan was puffing on his pipe facing the dim light, his face changing from gloomy to bright, and it was obvious that he was worried about something.
Qiu Shuijing rushed over upon hearing the news and asked, "Song Yan, didn't you ask the Pavilion Master for a permit? Didn't he give it to you?"
Zuo Songyan sighed, a little depressed, and said: "I went to ask for the approval, and he said to remarry. I said that a real man will never have trouble finding a wife, and he got angry, saying that I have two wives, and even made sarcastic remarks. It is because I have two wives that I said that I will never have trouble finding a wife. I can marry two, let alone him?"
Qiu Shuijing was silent for a moment, then said, "Didn't he hit you?"
Zuo Songyan glared at him and shook his head, saying, "I was once a minister, and I protected him back then."
Qiu Shuijing was silent for a moment, then said, "If I were him, I would beat you even if you were a servant. What did he say?"
Zuo Songyan frowned and said, "He proposed to Chi Xiaoyao Pushe before, but failed. The dragon race is different from the human race. The dragon race has a period of affection. After the period of affection, they have no interest in love. He had to propose during the period of affection. He told me that without a wife, there would be no approval, so he asked me to find him a wife."
Qiu Shuijing frowned and asked, "Chi Xiaoyao?"
Zuo Songyan said worriedly: "If it was Xiaoyao, I would go there even if it meant losing face. After all, she was once my student. But the key point is not that. It's the master of Yuqingluo Cave."
Qiu Shuijing hummed and stopped talking.
Zuo Songyan said, "I heard that the person that Cave Master Yu Qingluo likes is called Su Yun, but it is the Su Yun that Cave Master imagined, not the real Su Yun. I was worried, but fortunately you are here."
He looked at Qiu Shuijing hopefully. Qiu Shuijing hesitated and suddenly said, "A man should have no problem finding a wife. I have something else to do. I'll leave first!"
"You come with me!" Zuo Songyan grabbed him.
Qiu Shuijing smiled and said, "Song Yan, I went with you only because I was kicked out by the cave master Yu Qingluo. She has obtained the great way of all saints, how powerful is she? In my opinion, I will go and ask for the approval for you, and as for the marriage proposal, let's put it aside for now."
Zuo Songyan agreed.
Qiu Shuijing came to Ganquan Garden to see Su Yun, but saw that Su Yun was frowning. Qiu Shuijing said seriously: "I saw Zuo Songyan on the road, trying to commit suicide under the street light."
Su Yun was startled and asked quickly, "Why is he seeking death?"
Qiu Shuijing said: "I saw him hanging his belt on a street lamp and was about to hang himself, so I stopped him and asked him. He said that the master was ignorant and lustful and led the country astray. The construction of the city in Western Xinjiang was short of money and food, but the master was depressed because there were no women in the harem and did not allocate money and food. Such a tyrant king will soon destroy the country. I want to die for my country. My death will make the people of the world wake up and curse the tyrant king!"
Su Yun said hesitantly, "I have never claimed to be an emperor, so how can I say that my master is a tyrant? But you have to stop him. How could I force Teacher Zuo to death just because I don't have a wife?"
Qiu Shuijing said: "I tried my best to persuade him and stopped him. Then the money and food..."
Su Yun smiled and said, "I have already approved it."
Qiu Shuijing took the approval slip and went to the Pixiu world with Zuo Songyan to withdraw the money. Pixiu cursed and called him a bastard. Zuo Songyan was so angry that he said, "It's not your money, but you feel more distressed than the Pavilion Master!"
Pixiu smiled and said, "The Pavilion Master asked me to manage the money. He didn't value my willingness to spend money, but that I know how to make money for him and manage money for him. Money can make money in my hands, how can I not feel bad?"
Qiu Shuijing said: "If the country is destroyed and the family is ruined, what is the use of money? If you can't defend the western border, the enemy will march straight in, and all your property will be given away for nothing. Even if you are a Pixiu demon god, you can only be locked in a cage and chew bamboo, and the immortals will watch you outside the cage."
The Pixiu was frightened and didn't dare to say anything more.
Some days later, while Su Yun was still thinking about remarrying, Ou Yewu sent someone to report, "Pavilion Master, the test of the Black Iron Bell is complete."
Su Yun quickly put the matter of remarrying aside and hurried out of the city.
There were already huge crowds of people outside the city, with spiritualists and immortals everywhere. The sky was also full, all watching the scholars from Tongtian Pavilion making the final adjustments to the Black Iron Bell.
Su Yun spent many years refining this bell, and dozens of factories were mobilized to supervise its manufacture. It took the geniuses of Tongtian Pavilion several months to digest the blueprint alone!
Legend has it that in order to refine this bell, even the Chaos Fire was used, and it was only then that it was barely completed.
This device has been debugged for three months and is now basically ready.
When Su Yun arrived, he saw that the scholars of Tongtian Pavilion had placed a divine eye talisman on each scale of the black iron bell. Once the talisman was activated, it could transform into a Yinglong Heavenly Eye.
—Yuan Shuo’s spiritualists often make this kind of talismans to sell for money. Even if they have not practiced this kind of magical power, they can temporarily master it through talismans.
One by one, the Yinglong Heavenly Eye talismans were activated, and straight rays of light shot out from these heavenly eyes.
At this time, some spiritualists stood outside the black iron bell holding signs with scales, divided into different circles, each circle was ten miles apart.
Someone was activating the black iron bell, making it run in circles for testing.
When the micro-scale on the bottom layer of the black iron bell moves a certain distance, the rays emitted by Yinglong's Sky Eye will leave a burn mark on the plate with the scale.
At the same time, on the sign ten miles away, the Sky Eye on the scale suddenly left a small burn mark on the sign, but the distance of the burn mark was extremely short.
Ten miles away, the eye of heaven on the second scale left a burn mark on the sign there.
Ten miles further, there were some more signs with words and scales on them leaving a small burn mark from the Eye of Heaven.
And so on.
The scholars of Tongtian Pavilion calculated the distance of each burn mark in order to adjust the accuracy of time conversion between different scales.
"I believe there has never been a treasure of this precision before."
Ou Yewu's face was flushed, and he said to Su Yun: "There are many treasures throughout history. Even the Emperor Sword and the Immortal Burning Furnace cannot reach the level of the Black Iron Bell in terms of precision. The two emperors, their cultivation is far beyond the Saint Emperor, but I am sure that they can never reach my level in refining treasures!"
Su Yun smiled and said, "My cultivation level is also very high."
Ou Yewu hesitated and said a few perfunctory words, then continued with a proud look on his face, "The materials used in this treasure are incomparable to theirs! Now that this treasure is out, I can die without regrets!"
Yingying quickly slipped out of Su Yun's spiritual world, staring at Ou Yewu with piercing eyes, waiting for the old man to die suddenly.
However, the old man is in high spirits.
Yingying was a little disappointed: "It turns out that he was just talking. I thought he would really... Jin Guan, don't move anymore. The old man was just talking. He is not really going to die now."
Behind her, the golden coffin jumped restlessly twice.
"I heard that the Immortal Burning Furnace has not yet been completed, and the Four Extreme Cauldrons attacked and destroyed the Immortal Burning Furnace."
Suddenly, the voice of Sang Tianjun came: "The Emperor Sword is about to be completed, and the Purple Mansion attacked and destroyed the Emperor Sword. It can be seen that refining a treasure is easy to be punished by heaven. Once the Holy Emperor's treasure is completed, will there be a disaster?"
Su Yun smiled and said, "My treasure is not yet a supreme treasure. A supreme treasure is spiritual and has its own spirituality. It is the power of Tao and the power of all living things that bless it, so that it has spirit. My Tao has not reached this level, so the Shiyin Bell is not a supreme treasure. Besides..."
He smiled slightly and said, "The Four Extreme Cauldrons were bewitched by someone and attacked the Immortal Burning Furnace. I summoned the Immortal Burning Furnace with the seal, which caused the Emperor Sword to be robbed. This shows that the so-called disaster will happen when the treasure is about to be completed is nonsense."
At this time, Yue Zhaoquan's voice came, and he said solemnly: "How does the Holy Emperor know that this is not caused by fate?"
Su Yun was stunned for a moment, and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see Yue Zhaoquan, Xishan Sanren and six other elders also coming. The six elders had solemn expressions on their faces, and each stood around the black iron bell, activating their Tao realm and magical powers, as if facing a formidable enemy.
Su Yun smiled and said, "Is it so serious? I haven't even sacrificed this bell yet, and even if I use my Dao imprint on the bell, it may not necessarily cause a disaster. Gentlemen, my Dao practice is still shallow, and my cultivation is only the second level of the Dao realm. I am still far from refining a treasure!"
Li Shangxue said: "Miss Yingying, you'd better prepare your gold chain. Everyone else, please retreat quickly to avoid hurting innocent people!"
Su Yun frowned, and saw Xishan Sanren activating the Shuanghe Avenue, and two long rivers appeared across the sky. Behind Yue Zhaoquan, the Great Wall of the Avenue seemed to be pressing on the dust of history. Behind Li Shangxue, the Heavenly Gate appeared, Gong Xilou sat on the Tianzhu with his feet, Lu Xianren had the Huagai Avenue on his head, and Jun Zaijiu stepped on the Lingtai.
Prince Yu shouted, "Saint Emperor, you must be careful! When my father was refining treasures, there was also a disaster!"
His father is the emperor of the fifth fairyland, the fairy emperor Yu Yanzhao who trusted Di Jue to attend the meeting alone!
This great emperor also has his own treasure!
Yingying became nervous immediately upon hearing this and quickly raised the gold chain.
Su Yun was about to speak when he suddenly saw a witch fairy tree rising slowly in the back court, and the three thousand worlds were filled with brilliant fairy light.
A fairy came by boat and bowed, saying, "The Queen knows that the Holy Emperor's treasure will be completed and there will be a disaster, so she offered sacrifices to the witch fairy treasure tree to protect the Holy Emperor from wind and rain. The Queen said that the Holy Emperor should not forget the help today in the future."
Su Yun's face was solemn, and he calmed down: "Could it be that after refining a supreme treasure, there will really be a disaster? However, this treasure of mine is not considered a supreme treasure, right?"
Although the materials used in the Shiyin Bell are extremely precious, even treasures like the Golden Coffin and the First Sword Formation Diagram do not use such precious materials.
However, this cannot be considered as refining a treasure. At most, it is just refining an ordinary bell, but with better materials.
Back then, Emperor Shu refined the golden coffin, sword array diagram, and golden chain, enslaving the old gods, immortals, and the God and Demon Emperor to refine these three treasures. It took him millions of years to finally complete them.
In later generations, Emperor Jue spent a lot of time and energy to refine the Four Extreme Cauldrons and the Immortal Burning Furnace. He enslaved the old gods and captured countless immortals and demons to refine the treasures.
In order to refine the Emperor Sword Pill, Emperor Feng directly captured the remaining members of Emperor Jue, such as Xianxiang Biluo, Wu Xianren and others, and used them to refine the treasure, which took tens of thousands of years.
In order to refine the Time-Sound Bell, Su Yun dispatched Ou Yewu, a treasure-refining madman from Tongtian Pavilion, and mobilized dozens of factories to supervise the production. It took four years before the big bell was completed.
Although the Chaos Fire helped with the smelting, Su Yun himself didn't believe that an invincible treasure could be forged in this way.
However, the six elders including Yue Zhaoquan have extremely ancient origins and are knowledgeable. Even the Queen of Heaven has come!
The Queen Mother of Heaven was the person who listened to the lectures of Emperor Hundun and the outsider when the universe was first created. She also said that there was a calamity, so Su Yun had to take it seriously.
Su Yun waved his hand and gave the order for everyone to retreat. After hesitating for a moment, he ordered his men to stay in the first sword formation diagram, ready to deal with any unexpected events at any time.
"Pass on my order! Ask the eleven old gods to sacrifice their magic weapons and prepare for support!" Su Yun said loudly.
When everyone heard this, they all felt that he was a little too nervous. Now they have the first sword formation diagram, plus the Queen Mother's witch fairy treasure tree, two great treasures, a big gold chain and a golden coffin, plus Yue Zhaoquan and the other six elders. With this lineup, even if the Four Extreme Cauldrons attack, they are not afraid at all!
"Who will go with me to invite the banished immortal?" Su Yun asked loudly.
Yue Zhaoquan coughed and said, "It's done, Emperor Su."
"If there is a banished immortal here, it can ensure that nothing goes wrong..."
As soon as Su Yun said this, the six elders glared at him. Su Yun had no choice but to give up and mobilize his innate Qi, preparing to imprint the Great Dao on this black iron bell.
The big clock is gray and has traces of old iron polishing.
Everyone around looked up at the sky nervously.
At this moment, something strange happened, and the golden coffin behind Yingying opened with a click!
