Now, these lines were quickly dissipating. This caused these divided areas to gradually condense and become one. Not only that, as the various regions fused, buildings rose from the ground from Heavenly Mystery City, causing the originally empty Heavenly Mystery City to instantly become filled.
In an instant, all the members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, whether they were in the Heavenly Mystery City or not, seemed to have sensed something and their souls shook. Everyone immediately entered Heavenly Mystery City through the Heavenly Mystery Mask.
“This is…”
The moment these Heavenly Mystery Palace members appeared in Heavenly Mystery City, everyone was adrift by the scene in front of them. They realized that the current Heavenly Mystery City had already undergone a huge change. Tall buildings covered the entire Heavenly Mystery City, making it look brand new. It was as if a poor and backward town had transformed into a prosperous metropolis.
“The Palace Master… opened up another area!!” Wu Muzhen looked excited. It had not been long since Xiao Shi opened up an area last time. He did not expect the other party to open up another area so quickly.
Moreover, this established area allowed them to cross regions in Heavenly Mystery City. Many buildings in Heavenly Mystery City were also formed. These buildings all had different functions and effects. It was very beneficial to the members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace. Next, they could conduct various information transactions in Heavenly Mystery City.
Swoosh!
Just as Wu Muzhen was feeling excited, his figure suddenly flashed and he was directly teleported to a wide hall. The entire hall was huge and there were many seats. On one of the seats sat a person covered in a large amount of light. His figure and appearance could not be seen clearly.
Wu Muzhen trembled. He immediately greeted respectfully. “Greetings, Palace Master!”
Xiao Shi nodded slightly. He played with a golden coin in his hand as he said, “I summoned you this time to give you an important mission.”
“Please instruct me, Palace Master.” Wu Muzhen said respectfully. Ever since he worked for Xiao Shi, he would do everything Xiao Shi instructed him to do.
“Now that the Heavenly Mystery City area has opened, I need to establish the order and rules here in the Heavenly Mystery City. However, I don’t have that much time to manage it, so… I need a representative.”
As soon as Xiao Shi finished speaking, Wu Muzhen’s heart thumped wildly. He knew what being this representative meant. His entire body could not help but tremble.
“I’m prepared to let you be the representative. Are you confident that you can do it?” Xiao Shi asked.
Wu Muzhen took a deep breath. An indescribable joy and excitement surged in his heart. At the same time, he felt even more flattered. From the first time he came into contact with Xiao Shi, he knew that as long as he worked hard for him, he would definitely be able to develop well with the Palace Master in the future.
He did not expect the Palace Master to actually want him to be the representative! Once he became the Palace Master’s representative, his status in the Heavenly Mystery Palace would be second only to the Palace Master.
He would also have some special and powerful authority in the Heavenly Mystery Palace. To Wu Muzhen, this was something he did not dare to think about.
Xiao Shi stared at Wu Muzhen. With Wu Muzhen’s strength and cultivation, he could only be considered a medial-class member of the Heavenly Mystery Palace. However, in the management of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, strength and cultivation did not have much meaning.
All the members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace had the same strength and cultivation in Heavenly Mystery City. Moreover, fighting was forbidden in the Heavenly Mystery Palace. It could be said that Wu Muzhen was the most suitable candidate.
After all, ever since Wu Muzhen worked for him, he had never disappointed him. He did his best to do everything. Instead of finding a powerful member of the Heavenly Mystery Palace to be the representative, he might as well find someone who was absolutely obedient to him and had made many contributions to him.
Wu Muzhen took a deep breath. He replied excitedly. “Understood!”
Xiao Shi nodded in satisfaction. The golden coin he was playing with was thrown to Wu Muzhen. This golden coin would be the symbol of Heavenly Mystery City’s representative. It allowed Wu Muzhen to have many rights as a representative.
Xiao Shi began to tell Wu Muzhen about the order and rules he was prepared to establish in Heavenly Mystery City. Firstly, he planned to filter out a group of members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace who were loyal to him through the Heavenly Mystery City.
Due to the special nature of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, it was destined to be very difficult for the members of the faction to completely submit to the leader of the faction like the other factions.
The Heavenly Mystery Palace was a free organization. In addition, Xiao Shi had joined the Heavenly Mystery Palace later than any member, and he did not have the strength of a ruler.
When he became the Palace Master of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, he only had the strength of the Blood Martial realm. At that time, any member of the Heavenly Mystery Palace could easily kill him.
This made it very difficult for him to make these members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace swear loyalty to him. Many members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace even had ulterior motives. They wanted to find out his identity in reality, kill him, and replace him.
Therefore, Xiao Shi had never interacted with too many members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace. And now, as his strength and cultivation increased, although he was still not the strongest person in the Heavenly Mystery Palace, he already had enough ability to protect himself.
Coupled with the opening of this region, the Heavenly Mystery Palace would officially welcome a large-scale development.
Xiao Shi felt that it was necessary to filter out a group of members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace who were loyal to him. He did not have a number requirement for this group. The most important thing was that these people were all sincere. There was no disloyalty. This required Wu Muzhen to undergo many tests.
In addition, Xiao Shi was prepared to develop the Heavenly Mystery Palace through these buildings in Heavenly Mystery City. These buildings all had different functions. For example, in the hall where Xiao Shi was. Its use was that Xiao Shi could issue missions in this hall as the Palace Master.
Apart from the building that could allow the Palace Master to issue missions and rewards, there were also buildings that could allow other members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace to issue missions and rewards. There were also buildings that provided transactions, teleportation, stalls, and many other functions.
These buildings also needed to be managed. At the moment, Xiao Shi had handed it to Wu Muzhen, the representative, to manage. To put it simply, the current Heavenly Mystery City was like a huge market. All the members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace could exchange information here, issue some missions, and receive some bounties.
Even treasures could be traded in Heavenly Mystery City. There were buildings in Heavenly Mystery City that could trade items. However, to these Heavenly Mystery Palace members, the items they could bring into the Heavenly Mystery Palace were often limited in quantity and could only be traded with a small number of items.
This was also the meaning and value of establishing this area. Not only could these Heavenly Mystery City members cross regions, even if they were far apart in reality, they could still meet in Heavenly Mystery City.
More importantly, he could gather these members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace. It was no longer like before, where they were in a state of disunity. Xiao Shi felt that he could currently issue a mission to investigate the Tianwu Continent and which areas could be refined in the Heavenly Mystery Palace.
On second thought, if he issued this mission, many people would probably think that the current Palace Master of the Heavenly Mystery Palace was about to break through to the Sage Realm. At that time, many people would lock their gazes on them, who were at the Martial Demon Realm.
They would pay special attention to the people who were about to break through to the Sage Realm. Once he became a Sage, it would definitely arouse suspicion. After some thought, Xiao Shi realized that this mission could not be published!
“It seems that even if 1 want to investigate which areas can be refined, I can only investigate in secret. I can’t do it openly.” Xiao Shi thought to himself. No matter what, he had to hide his identity. Even if he reached the Sage Realm, he would not reveal his identity as the Palace Master of Heavenly Mystery Palace..
