Outside the Incense Valley. The teams of Qingyunmen and Tianyin Temple merged and exchanged rituals. Puzhi Divine Monk took the lead and asked Daoxuan: "Master, this time you summoned the three sects to unite, is there something big going on with the demon sect?" The relationship between the three righteous sects is close and intimate, after all, they work together to fight against the demon After teaching for so many years, everyone can be regarded as life and death friends.
However, the three sects of inheritance are not the same. Qingyunmen is Taoist, Tianyin Temple is Buddhist, and Fenxiang Valley is similar to 'secular'.
The three sects have different inheritances. Apart from things like subduing demons and eliminating demons, there is not much communication in other aspects.
The ten-year gathering of the three sects was originally just to communicate news about how to slay demons.
During the gathering, the three sects only need to ask the elders and disciples to attend. This year, Daoxuan, the head of the Qingyun Sect, suddenly sent a message to the two families, inviting them to meet with each other.
Both Fenxiang Valley and Tianyin Temple had doubts.
"Master, this is a long story. Let's talk about it after we get to Fenxiang Valley and meet the Master of Yun Valley!" Daoxuan just smiled gently and asked everyone in Tianyin Temple to come to Fenxiang Valley with him first.
The three sects of righteousness have long been vaguely headed by Qingyun Sect. Now that Daoxuan invites him like this, Divine Monk Puhong will naturally not refuse.
After a while, nearly seventy people from the two groups arrived at the gate of Fenxiang Valley. The owner of Fenxiang Valley, Yun Yilan, had already received the information and led the elders and disciples of the sect out to greet him.
Not long after, the heads of the three families gathered in Shanhe Hall, the main hall of Fenxiang Valley. Shanhe Temple is located in the center of Fenxiang Valley, surrounded by water, with a quiet and elegant environment.
After everyone entered the Shanhe Palace, they chatted with each other for a while. When it was time to talk about business, the leaders of the three factions asked their disciples to go out and guard to prevent anyone from eavesdropping.
At this time, the head of Daoxuan originally wanted Su Mingzhe, a master-level disciple, to discuss matters with him. Unexpectedly, Su Mingzhe declined vigorously.
Wouldn’t it be nice to accompany Junior Sister Xue Qi outside the door? Why do you have to accompany a bunch of bad old men to discuss something as trivial as slaying demons and defending the Tao?
Inside the Shanhe Hall, the main hall of Fenxiang Valley. After all the disciples exited, only the top officials of the three sects were left in the hall. Everyone looked directly at Daoxuan Zhenren, the headmaster of Qingyun Sect.
Puzhi Divine Monk reiterated the old talk and asked Daoxuan why he summoned everyone. Seeing everyone gathered, Daoxuan's eyes focused on him. He was not afraid of the stage. He looked at everyone calmly and then said clearly: "Everyone, it has been nearly two hundred years since the last battle between good and evil."
"As the saying goes, it takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to cultivate people. After more than a hundred years of reproduction, the demonic forces have long since resurrected. Among them, the Ghost King Sect, the Blood Refining Hall, the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, and the Changsheng Hall have repeatedly caused trouble. In the Central Plains, There are constant bloody storms and troubles everywhere..." Daoxuan said something, arousing everyone's emotions and attracting everyone's attention. Then he told the reason why he summoned everyone: "My disciples recently discovered that the demon sect has gathered. There are a lot of masters among the disciples of the branch, and the demonic aura is soaring into the sky! It is difficult for my Qingyun sect to clean up this branch alone, so I want to invite everyone to help, to defeat the demons, defend the way, and maintain the peace of the people!"
"Amitabha!" When Puhong saw Daoxuan talking about this, he immediately became energetic and echoed: "The poor monk also felt what the real person said. Demonic sect activities have become more and more frequent recently. Last year, I, Tianyin Temple, got the news , originally wanted to eradicate the Devil's Cult, the Ghost King Sect, but the news was leaked, causing them to escape and finally disappeared. This time we need to be careful and strive to settle the matter in a battle!"
"It is my duty to subjugate demons and eliminate demons! It is my duty in Fenxiang Valley!" Yun Yilan, the owner of Fenxiang Valley, saw that Qingyunmen and Tianyin Temple were so determined to eradicate the demon sect, so naturally he would not throw cold water on them.
However, Fenxiang Valley has always guarded the southern border, and the conflict with the Demon Cult is not serious. This time in rushing to the Central Plains to eradicate the Ghost King Sect, Fenxiang Valley would definitely be able to use only part of its strength and not go all out.
After the three factions reached an agreement, they began to discuss how to contribute people and how to cooperate. It is said that "a gentleman is ashamed of his words."
As the leaders of the right path, the three factions will definitely not strive for any interests openly. Even, everyone is competing for various contributions.
However, we are all old foxes who have lived for hundreds of years. Just because we have put a label of 'righteousness' on ourselves does not mean that we are really 'gentlemen'.
The interests that should be fought for will definitely be achieved in a roundabout way. After some discussions among the three companies, a cooperation plan was finally decided.
Fenxiang Valley is the weakest of the three sects of the Righteous Path and has the least amount of effort, but it still accounts for one-third of the interests.
Yun Yilan was very satisfied with this. Tianyin Temple contributed a lot of people and efforts. In addition to receiving one-third of the benefits, it also received a private promise from Daoxuan.
The three holy monks were also very satisfied. Daoxuan smiled very modestly. As the person in charge of subduing demons and defending the Tao this time, since he dared to preside over this operation, it was obvious that he would not suffer any loss.
All three families thought they had taken advantage, and their smiles seemed particularly sincere. Not long after, the discussions between the three factions came to an end, and a banquet was arranged in Fenxiang Valley.
Most of the things at the banquet were eating and drinking, so I won’t go into details. Just say after the banquet. Disciples from the three sects came to the square in front of the main hall of Fenxiang Valley in twos and threes to reminisce and chat.
"Older" disciples like Qi Hao, Chang Jian, Song Daren, Zeng, Wen Min, and Chu Yuhong have all traveled around the world many times to exorcise demons and defend the Tao, and they have also participated in such sect gatherings many times.
Therefore, there are many friends from the three factions who are familiar with each other. Everyone was talking and laughing, and it was a good time. As practitioners, most of them are well-informed. When they talk, they talk about the strange things about conquering demons and traveling around the world.
After everyone communicated for a while, the topic gradually turned to cultivation. Yan Hong, who was standing by, suddenly smiled sweetly, bowed his hands towards Su Mingzhe and said, "Senior Brother Su, I would also like to thank you for the Earth Flame Chalcedony you gave me last time." Last year, Yan Hong and her three junior brothers and sisters went out to travel and wanted to Looking for treasures of heaven and earth that can neutralize the 'fire poison' in the body.
When Su Mingzhe met these four people and heard their purpose, he gave them a bottle of Earth Flame Chalcedony he had collected.
Looking at Yan Hong's aura now, which is calm and powerful, it is obvious that the fire poison produced in the body due to the practice of [Burning Incense Jade Book] has been completely eliminated.
Su Mingzhe looked at Yan Hong and said with a smile: "Junior sister Yan, haven't you already thanked me? The three of us are in the same spirit. Don't just thank us for coming and thanking you for going just because of this trivial matter." Yan Hong saw Su Mingzhe said this and did not dwell on this point, but continued: "Senior Brother Su, you said before that 'where poisonous snakes are infested, there must be an antidote within seven steps', reminding us that there will be neutralization near Fenxiang Valley. It's a 'fire poison' thing. Unfortunately, after I came back, I reported this matter to the master. Many disciples were sent out in the valley, but they couldn't find the treasure you talked about that can cure the 'fire poison'." Yan Hong's face changed after talking about this. His eyes were a little sincere, and he smiled and said: "My master said that this should be the 'authority confusion'. Our ancestors have lived here for generations, and it is already 'dark under the lamp'. It is difficult to break through this layer of confusion. If you want to find a way to solve it, The treasure of 'Fire Poison' needs a 'bystander' like Senior Brother Su."
"Junior Sister Yan's words are quite flattering to me. Although I am a bystander, I am not an expert." Su Mingzhe was humble for a moment, and then said seriously: "However, with the relationship between our two families, I can help a little. We are busy, we must be duty-bound and bound to do so!" At this point, Su Mingzhe immediately told everyone present about the Yin-Yang and Five Elements, how to identify spiritual herbs and spiritual objects.
In addition, Su Mingzhe also talked about the location where the spiritual grass may appear. The disciples all found it interesting after listening to Su Mingzhe's lecture.
The little monk Faxiang of Tianyin Temple suddenly laughed and said: "Brothers and sisters, it is better to choose a day than to hit the sun. It is still early, how about we try to find it now?" When everyone heard this, they all clapped their hands. cheers.
Everyone present said it was too much or too little. Disciples from the three factions stood together. There are more than 20 disciples from Tianyin Temple, more than 30 disciples from Qingyun Sect, plus the Fenxiang Valley disciples accompanying the guests, there are about a hundred people in total.
At Qingyun Sect, more than thirty disciples pushed Su Mingzhe out together and asked him to assign positions to everyone. It stands to reason that among the thirty-five disciples of the Qingyun Sect, although Su Mingzhe has a high level of cultivation, his popularity is far less than that of Qi Hao, who was ranked second in the previous Seven Meridians Competition.
As a disciple of Qingyun Sect at the same time as Song Daren, Qi Hao can also be regarded as a talented disciple of Qingyun Sect.
Sixty years ago, he had already become famous in both the good and evil ways. The disciples of Fenxiang Valley, Tianyin Temple, and even people in the evil sect had all heard of his name.
It is a pity that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and each generation becomes stronger than the last! It only took Su Mingzhe, a junior junior, less than ten years to raise his cultivation level to the Shangqing realm and ride on Qi Hao's head with his strength.
Qi Hao had a well-rounded personality and knew that his strength was not as good as Su Mingzhe's. In addition, he saw that Su Mingzhe was also good at uniting his fellow disciples, so he simply refused to snatch this opportunity to shine.
Tianyin Temple saw that the Qingyun Sect had introduced a new person as the leader, so they simply also introduced the young monk Dharma.
On the Fenxiang Valley side, senior brother Li Xun had no choice but to continue to lead the team. Everyone went in four directions, with more than 20 people in each group.
Each group of people also has disciples from Fenxiang Valley as guides. As one of the two heroes of Fenxiang Valley, Yan Hong received help from Su Mingzhe again, and this time she accompanied Su Mingzhe as a guide.
Together with disciples such as Dazhufeng and Xiaozhufeng, as well as several young monks such as Tianyin Temple, they gathered more than twenty people and flew towards a high mountain to the north of Fenxiang Valley.
Fenxiang Valley is located in southern Xinjiang, with mountains and rivers. After Yan Hong took everyone to the top of Huoyun Mountain in the north, he asked Su Mingzhe for help.
Su Mingzhe did his part and smiled at more than 20 people: "Brothers and sisters..."
"I dare not call you Senior Brother Su like that!" Both Tianyin Temple and Fenxiang Valley also knew the details of Su Mingzhe.
Less than ten years after joining the Qingyun Sect, he was already a master-level figure. Who can afford to have a master-level figure call him 'senior brother'?
Therefore, everyone humbly calls Su Mingzhe 'senior brother'. Su Mingzhe just laughed when he saw that everyone was so "humble and courteous".
Practitioners don't need to pay too much attention to these red tapes.
"Junior brothers and sisters, I have a method here that can observe yin and yang and the five elements..."
