Mountain King Qiankun! A New Order Beneath Kunlun Mountain!

With the five ancient beings from the Chaos Era being personally "conferred titles" by Hongjun Daozu, this Admission Ceremony, which overturned the entire Primordial World's worldview, finally came to a close.

Hongjun, completely satisfied, carried the candy-munching Lin Shen and strolled back to the back mountain.

The Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and others need time to digest what they have gained today and, incidentally, to solidify their cultivation levels, which have been forcibly elevated by the Great Dao Merit.

The Kunlun Mountain Peak has once again returned to its former tranquility.

But at the foot of the Kunlun Mountain, things were in complete chaos!

The Qiankun Ancestor, no, he should now be called the Qiankun Food Sage.

This newly crowned Free Saint, and honorary captain of the Kunlun Mountain Security Team, is standing with his hands on his hips at the highest point of the mountain, full of high spirits.

He held the Mysterious Yellow Little Clay Figure, now awakened, in his arms; the little guy was curiously nibbling on his fingers.

He looked down at the "Dao Listening Community" below, which had been neatly divided by the Yang Mei the Great Immortal using the Space Laws, his eyes filled with the pride of "my territory, my rules".

After attaining enlightenment, he felt his entire Saintly Body become clear and transparent, and even his appetite improved significantly, and his sallow face became rosy and radiant.

"Cough cough!"

The Qiankun Food Sage cleared his throat. His voice was not loud, but it carried an undeniable majesty, precisely penetrating the ears of the billions of living beings below.

"Listen Old Daoist, all of you!"

"From this day forward, I, Qiankun, by order of Master Three Pure Ones and my junior brother, officially take over all matters concerning the outskirts of Kunlun Mountain!"

As soon as the words were spoken, all the creatures in the millions of "grids" below looked up in unison.

Their eyes held a mixture of awe, envy, and an indescribable fervor.

Sage!

This is the first Sage, apart from the Dao Ancestor, to attain enlightenment in full view of everyone since the World Creation of Primordial World!

Moreover, he was a Sage seemed to have a great understanding of "eating"!

"This place is called 'Kunlun Market'!"

With a wave of his hand, the Qiankun Food Sage displayed the boldness of Mountain King declaring his territory.

"Within this market town, all rules shall be set by this Old Daoist!"

"The first rule!"

He held up one finger.

"Everyone who has moved into the market, stay put in your own cubicle! No fighting, no making noise, and no urinating or defecating anywhere!"

"Those who violate this rule will be expelled from the market and never employed again!"

"In severe cases..."

He grinned, revealing a set of white teeth.

"Old Daoist, my newly acquired Qiankun Cauldron is just missing a few ingredients for stewing soup!"

Before he finished speaking, the enormous phantom of the Qiankun Cauldron behind him, embroidered with the "Primordial World -Han Imperial Feast" painting, flashed by.

A terrifying pressure of appetite, capable of shattering Dao Heart of Daluo Golden Immortal, crashed down.

All living things shuddered and instantly became more docile than rabbits.

"Article Two!"

The Qiankun Food Sage extended a second finger, his smile befitting a cunning merchant.

"Within the market town, commerce is permitted! I, the Old Daoist, encourage everyone to use their talents to engage in any commercial activity centered around 'pleasing our junior brother'!"

"Selling barbecue, selling toys, offering to cry and kneel on your behalf, and writing hymns for you!"

"As long as you have an idea that can catch my junior brother's eye, I 'Old Daoist support you!"

An uncontrollable cheer erupted from below.

Those quick-witted creatures' eyes lit up instantly.

Even Sage have spoken out in support! What does this signify?

This means that this road is the Great Dao!

"Certainly!"

The Qiankun Food Sage and Earth changed the subject, his smile growing even brighter.

"To maintain order in the market and prevent cutthroat competition, all business activities must be registered with Old Daoist, the old Daoist priest... um, on the street!"

"Registration naturally requires paying a small 'management fee'."

He grinned like a fox who had stolen a chicken.

"The standard for management fees is very simple."

"Let's see if this stuff you've put together... I, Old Daoist, will like to eat it!"

These words caused another uproar in the audience.

But this time, no one felt it was inappropriate; on the contrary, they felt it was perfectly normal.

The Food Saint, it's only natural that you enjoy eating, isn't it?

Thus, a commercial wave centered on "feeding the food saint" unfolded in Kunlun Market.

A Three-legged Golden Crow, its body engulfed in the Solar True Fire, trembled as it approached the Qiankun Food Sage, holding a golden feather it had just shed.

"Holy... Sage Lord," he said with expectant eyes, "How about I use this feather to pick your teeth?"

The Qiankun Food Sage glanced at it and shook his head.

"Too hard, sparky, and likely to cause internal heat. Next!"

The Three-legged Golden Crow, as if struck by lightning, retreated dejectedly.

A graceful Nine-tailed Celestial Fox, carrying a plate of "Entangled Love Threads" celestial fruits that she had nurtured with her own alluring powers, stepped forward.

"My Sage, would you like to try this fruit? Eating it will remind me of my most beautiful first love."

The Qiankun Food Sage smelled it and then shook his head.

"Showy but impractical, too bland, reeks of saccharine romance. This Old Daoist man isn't into that. Next!"

The Nine-tailed Celestial Fox's smile froze on her face.

Countless creatures brought rare and precious treasures to "register," only to be turned away by the Qiankun Food Sage with all sorts of bizarre reasons.

Until, a seemingly simple-minded Bear Demon, carrying a giant Kun that had just been captured from the North Sea, arrived before the Qiankun Food Sage.

The giant Kun was still lively and energetic.

"Holy... Sage Lord," the Bear Demon said in a muffled voice, "I...I don't have any treasures, all I know is how to roast meat. Do you think this fish is...fat or not?"

The Qiankun Food Sage's eyes lit up instantly!

He circled the giant Kun twice, marveling at it as he looked at it.

"Excellent, excellent! The flesh is firm and the fat is thick, especially the skin, which is rich in collagen. It would be absolutely delicious in a cold salad!"

He patted the Bear Demon on the shoulder with satisfaction and waved his hand.

"Approved! Your Barbecue Stall Old Daoist approved!"

"As for the location, I'll arrange it for you in the very center of the market, right opposite the entrance to the mountain! So that Junior Brother can smell the fragrance as soon as he steps out!"

The Bear Demon was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes, and he immediately kowtowed three times to the Qiankun Food Sage.

With the Bear Demon as a successful example, the creatures in the market instantly found the correct "password".

The art style has completely gone astray.

No one offered any more magical treasures or rare materials.

Instead, all sorts of bizarre and wonderful... ingredients!

"My Sage! Look at this Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Clam I dug up from the depths of the East Sea! Its flesh is springy and juicy, bursting with flavor in every bite!"

"Sage! This is Innate Cabbage grown with the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil! It's crisp, refreshing, and rich in the fiber of the Great Dao!"

"Sage lord! I! My true form is an Innate Roasted Piglet! I am willing to offer myself up for my junior brother's appetite!"

The area in front of Qiankun Food Sage's stall has been completely transformed into a large-scale fresh food wholesale market.

His newly changed burlap sack was quickly stuffed full of various ingredients again.

While busy approving documents, he pulled a freshly harvested ancient ginseng from a sack and chewed it like a radish, his face glistening with happiness.

Meanwhile, Yang Mei the Great Immortal, the "Chief Planner" of Kunlun Market, stood with his hands behind his back on a cloud, looking utterly dejected.

Looking at the bustling scene below, he felt that his Space Dao had been defiled like never before.

He is a powerful Space Demon God, an being who governs the order of the universe.

The perfect community he personally planned embodies the supreme principles of space.

It turns out...

These guys have turned it into... a vegetable market?

"Well..."

The Yang Mei the Great Immortal let out a sigh from the depths of his soul.

He felt that he shouldn't have left the seclusion in the first place.

Isn't it great to be a shut-in in the Chaos Sea?

Just then, a gentle yet somewhat helpless voice transmission sounded in his ear.

It is Laozi of the Taiqing school.

"Fellow Daoist Yang Mei, thank you for your trouble."

"At the foot of the mountain, all living beings have gathered, and order has been initially established, but ultimately, the place is still a mixed bag, and the spiritual energy is chaotic."

"I urge you, fellow Daoist, to use your divine power once more to set up a 'Space Purification Array' in this market to filter spiritual energy and eliminate those with ill intentions."

The corner of Yang Mei the Great Immortal's eye twitched violently.

Are you coming again?

I just finished drawing the grid, and now they want me to install... an air purifier?

Do you Kunlun Mountain people think of me as a jack-of-all-trades tool?!
