Chapter 94: Chapter 94, Constructing the Tao Palace

A group of people tread on the sea surface, arriving at Golden Turtle Island, which was lush with trees and abundant in herbs, bizarre rocks and cliffs, and Exotic Beasts roaming about.

A winding path led into the island, and the crowd followed the path inward, glancing around as they walked. The vines were everywhere, less trimmed, not at all resembling a girl’s home, too messy.

Eventually, they reached a mountain peak at the center of the island. The peak had been flattened, upon which a palace sat, the plaque on it read "Divine Turtle Hall".

Tongtian dismounted from Kui Niu, chuckling as he said: "Though it has the air of spirit and elegance, it’s rather cold and deserted."

Gui Ling quickly laughed along, saying: "Master, this Divine Turtle Island is vast, but previously I was the only one living here, inevitably some places were neglected. Once you move in, I will definitely clean up the island thoroughly."

Behind them, Golden Spirit Saint Mother nudged Bai Jin, transmitting her voice: "Senior brother, you’ve met your match, this junior sister is also very good at flattering."

Bai Jin rolled his eyes, retorting irritably: "Is that called flattering? I am considering for Master."

...

Gui Ling suddenly said: "Master, I will move the Tao Palace away right now, this is the highest point on the island, it should serve as your residence."

"No need!" Tongtian pointed to one side, and with a rumbling sound, earth and stones surged, a brand-new mountain peak rose rapidly from the ground, growing quickly to a thousand ren high before stopping.

Bare mountain peak swiftly grew vines and cypresses, surrounded by colorful clouds and radiant light, instantly turning into a towering Immortal Peak, a rare Cave Heaven Blessed Land.

"Oh~"

"Oh~"

"Ga~"

...

Flocks of seabirds flew over, circling the newly grown Immortal Peak, chirping joyfully.

Gui Ling Saint Mother glanced at the newly grown sacred Immortal Peak, then back at her own mountain, suddenly feeling that her own mountain seemed like a small mound, hardly noteworthy.

Tongtian waved his hand, and a dense array of Immortal Materials and Exotic Treasures floated in the air like stars—Geng Metal Essence, Ganges Gold Sand, Water Essence, Building Tree Heartwood, Cloud Essence Stone, Soul Stone, Purple Gold Stone, Taiyi Gold Essence, Resting Soil Divine Earth, Blue Crystal Divine Sand, Tianhe Essence, Midnight Night-blooming Cereus, Cold Ice Immortal Fruit...

Bai Jin’s eyes suddenly widened, so many, so many wonderful things, Innate Spiritual Materials, Da Luo Treasure, Spiritual Root Divine Tree, everything you could think of.

Lord Duobao transmitted his voice: "Junior brother, Master is about to refine the Tao Palace, are your materials for refining the Tao Palace ready?"

Materials for refining the Tao Palace? Not at all! Bai Jin’s eyes flicked, and he quickly called out: "Master, please wait~"

Tongtian turned his head towards Bai Jin, asking puzzledly: "Bai Jin, what is it?"

Bai Jin hurriedly ran up, with a smiling face, he said: "If there is work, disciples are here to serve, such rough work like building a Tao Palace should be left to the disciples, how can we let Master personally do it! Wouldn’t that shame us all?!"

Tongtian smiled and said: "I can refine it faster!" and he was about to start working.

Bai Jin quickly stepped in front of Tongtian, and with a thud, knelt down, passionately saying: "Master, since I became your disciple, you have taught us Taoist Skills, guided us through the great way, protected our safety, all disciples harbor gratitude, but you are a Saint, a supreme and noble existence in Primordial World, almost omnipotent, though we disciples have the heart to repay, we have no means to do so."

With a thud of his forehead hitting the ground, he emotionally continued: "This new establishment of the Tao grounds, please allow us disciples to undertake the construction of the Tao Palace. Although our abilities are limited and the Tao Palace we build may not be perfect, it is our way of expressing our gratitude, please give us this opportunity!"

Bai Jin turned his gaze towards the several hundred Outer Disciples and said: "What do you say, am I right?"

Numerous Outer Disciples quickly all knelt down and echoed in unison: "Please give us a chance to repay our gratitude!" their voices shaking Golden Turtle Island.

Distantly, Golden Spirit Saint Mother quietly asked: "Big senior brother, what does Bai Jin mean by this?"

Lord Duobao snorted and said, "Just flattering and sucking up."

Tongtian looked around at everyone, feeling a surge of emotion in his heart, and laughed heartily, "Well then! Since you all have this intention, let you all forge the Tao Palace!"

He pointed at Bai Jin, and immediately an image of a majestic palace appeared in Bai Jin’s mind.

Bai Jin exclaimed joyfully, "Thank you, Master, for giving us an opportunity to repay your kindness. We will definitely do our utmost to craft the best Tao Palace for you."

"Haha~ What best? Just do your best." Tongtian’s figure faded and disappeared.

Only then did Bai Jin stand up from the ground, looking up at the densely packed Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, feeling stirred, I don’t have big ambitions, so keeping just some scraps shouldn’t be a problem, right?

Bai Jin waved his hand and gathered all the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, then turned to the numerous Outer Disciples and said seriously, "Crafting the Tao Palace for the Master is a major matter, we must give it our all and be absolutely meticulous."

"Yes!" All the Outer Disciples shouted excitedly, the idea of crafting the Tao Palace for the master sent their blood boiling.

Hundreds of Outer Disciples followed Bai Jin as they flew towards the lofty Immortal Peak.

In the distance, Golden Spirit Saint Mother whispered, "Senior Sister, should we go help?"

Wudang Saint smiled and said, "Let’s go! Building the Tao Palace for the Master is a big deal, we cannot stand by idly."

Wudang Saint and Golden Spirit Saint Mother rose on the clouds and flew towards the Immortal Mountain, with Lord Duobao silently following along, realizing he was indeed far behind Bai Jin in the art of flattering.

The Jie Sect Disciples soared through the sea of clouds and landed on the top of the Immortal Mountain.

Shi Ji approached Bai Jin and asked, "Senior Brother, what do we do now?"

Bai Jin looked around, suddenly feeling a bit at a loss, constructing a palace, this kind of technical job, I actually don’t really know how to do it! Earlier I was only thinking about skimming off some materials, but completely overlooked this practical problem.

In the sea of clouds, four figures broke through the skies, precisely Lord Duobao, Wudang Saint, Golden Spirit Saint, and Gui Ling Saint Mother.

Bai Jin’s eyes lit up, and he hurriedly exclaimed joyfully, "Senior Sister~"

Wudang Saint and the others landed.

Wudang Saint walked over gracefully, smiling, "Junior Brother, is there anything you need our help with?"

"Yes!"

"Speak frankly, Junior Brother!"

"Well, I don’t know how to build a palace." Bai Jin looked innocently at Wudang Saint.

Wudang Saint stopped in her tracks, speechless, "You don’t know how to build a palace?"

Bai Jin nodded earnestly.

The rest of the Outer Disciples also instantly turned their heads to look at Bai Jin, stunned, their fervent hearts cooling down halfway instantly, "Senior Brother, what were you thinking? Daring to volunteer to help the Master build the Tao Palace despite not knowing how to build one, aren’t you afraid of making a mess and getting blamed by the master?"

Wudang Saint said helplessly, "Since you don’t know how, why did you volunteer to help Master build the Tao Palace?"

Bai Jin sheepishly said, "Isn’t it just to express the disciple’s filial piety towards the Master? Besides, Senior Sister is here, right?"

Looking hopefully at Wudang Saint, he said, "Senior Sister, I sincerely invite you to be our Chief Architect."

Wudang Saint nodded and said, "As disciples, it’s our duty to build the Tao Palace for the Master."

Bai Jin shouted excitedly, "That’s great! Thank you, Senior Sister."
