The secret realm of mountains and rivers is originally a place for new inner disciples to gain experience and hunt for treasures.
After the influx of nearly 100,000 disciples, the various resources for cultivating immortals in the secret territory began to decrease drastically!
In the past, Linjiang Sect relied on the entire Qingzhou area, a large number of spiritual fields, countless mineral veins, and industries spread throughout the Chiyan Kingdom to maintain the sect's expenses.
Now there is only one mountain and river realm left, and many resources are beginning to be insufficient.
Originally, the sect still had reserves for consumption, and under normal circumstances, it could sustain the closure of the mountain for hundreds of years.
However, not long after the disciples moved into the secret realm, Patriarch Yuan Heming began to allocate a large amount of resources to practice, intending to improve his Taoism, resist the strange alienation power of the outside world, and force a way out!
But he is already a monk in the middle stage of Yuan Dan Realm. Even if he only breaks through to the late stage, it will not happen overnight and can be calculated over hundreds of years.
At the same time, monsters such as the two-winged flying snake often break in at the entrance of the secret realm and slaughter the sect disciples wantonly.
In order to resist such demons, the top leaders of the sect, headed by the sect leader Yuan Qingshi, also spent a lot of resources and set up formations, strongholds and other means of defense at the entrance.
Resources, which were already in a bit of a quandary, are becoming increasingly scarce!
Coupled with various factors such as not knowing whether relatives and friends are alive or dead, constantly facing the danger of invasion by flying snakes, and having no hope of a future, many disciples have found it difficult to keep their Taoist minds clear in the past three years, which has resulted in many evil deeds!
Then, it fell into a vicious cycle, making the disciples in the secret area feel increasingly suffocated and desperate.
Sect Master Yuan Qingshi, Rising Sun Peak Master Tang Lu, and the masters of various palaces have also thought of ways to change the atmosphere within the sect, and they have achieved some success at first. However, as the external environment has not improved, various methods can only be exciting for a while.
Gradually, many palace masters, core disciples, and spiritual sea realm elders were affected by this, and began to fight openly and secretly for resources to pave the way for their future cultivation.
Various contradictions that were not so obvious in the past have become increasingly prominent.
Throughout the history of Linjiang Sect, the hidden danger that nearly overturned the sect several times, that is, the battle between the immortal forces and the mortal forces, has begun to emerge again!
Not only that, there are signs of disputes between the four main peaks, and even between the various halls, between the local disciples of Qingzhou and the disciples from outside the state, and between the elders and inner disciples who have rifts with each other...
Today's Linjiang Sect is like rice porridge being simmered on a fire. I don't know when it will boil!
…
In a newly built small courtyard, Wu Gong, the guest of the sect, fiddled with the meager elixirs in front of him, his face full of sadness.
"Squeak!"
The door of the room was pushed open, and a woman wearing a simple and elegant alchemy robe and a phoenix bun walked in.
"Disciple, if you don't go to practice and refine elixirs, why are you here to serve as master?" Wu Gong put down the elixir in his hand and looked at the woman in plain clothes kindly.
The woman in plain clothes is none other than Zhao Lingyin, a direct disciple of Wu Gong.
She glanced at the elixir in front of Wu Gong, frowned slightly, and there was a hint of anger in her eyes: "They bullied people too much, I will go find the master and report them!"
However, before Zhao Lingyin could go out, she was stopped by Wu Gong.
"Oh, forget it. Sect Leader Yuan is busy with affairs, so it's not good to disturb him for such a trivial matter."
Wu Gong smiled bitterly and shook his head, and continued to persuade, "Master still has some elixirs in stock, which is enough to refine this batch of elixirs. Let's deal with this situation now."
Logically speaking, Wu Gong's master and apprentice were independent of the world and had great attainments in alchemy. In addition, Shen Mo had high-level connections to take care of them, so ordinary people would not dare to bully them.
However, because of Shen Mo, the two of them were also involved in the battle between the immortal forces and the mortal forces in the secret realm!
Ancestor Yuan Heming spent three years in seclusion and did not care about worldly affairs;
The leader of the clan, Yuan Qingshi, is preoccupied with all kinds of troublesome affairs and has no time to take care of him;
Among the four peak masters, only Tang Lu, the master of Rising Sun Peak, is in the mountains and rivers. Zhou Shili, the master of Xingchen Peak who is close to Shen Mo, and Yuan Jing, who has a neutral attitude, are all scattered outside. They don't know whether they are alive or dead!
However, there was quite a discord between Tang Lu and Shen Mo.
Because of Shen Mo, Tian Zhiyu, who was born in Rising Sun Peak, lost his seat as a core disciple and became an ordinary elder.
That's all. Tang Lu's younger junior brothers, namely the core chief Yang Xuan and the inner sect senior brother, were also snatched away from the position of leader of the fourth peak by Shen Mo...
Therefore, Yang Xuan chose to go to the outside world with the ancestor Gongsun Jiuru to inquire about the news. He may not have the intention of avoiding others!
Following the dramatic changes in the world, the five Immortal Sect ancestors, Yang Xuan and others were completely cut off from the Red Flame Territory, and their future was uncertain.
With this old grudge, Tang Lu was naturally disgusted with Zhao Lingyin, who had become a Taoist couple with Shen Mo only a few months later, and her master Wu Gong!
In addition, Wu Gong is a guest of the sect, and Zhao Lingyin is also from a secular background. Both of them can be classified as secular forces, and they have suffered a lot of overt and covert suppression in recent years.
Tian Zhaoquan, the master of Xianwu Hall, also had a big feud with Shen Mo.
When Shen Mo was powerful, he held back, but now he has found an opportunity to take advantage of his position to continuously squeeze Zhao Lingyin's master and apprentice... Just like these two days, he allocated very little elixir, but asked Wu Gong to refine the full amount. Pill!
Or they may find fault with the refined elixirs, collude with others, and deprive them of their monthly salary resources, etc.
After Wu Gong stopped Zhao Lingyin, he saw that she was still a little annoyed and couldn't help but wonder: "Disciple, what's wrong with you? I rarely see you like this as a master."
Zhao Lingyin has a weak temperament. Before she met Shen Mo, except for alchemy, few things could affect her Taoist heart.
After meeting Shen Mo, she became more girlish, but she rarely got angry...Wu Gong could see that his disciple was obviously not in a good state today.
"Tian Zhiyu, the elder of Rising Sun Peak, and Yuan Shengcai, the elder of Xianwu Palace, came to pester me again."
Zhao Lingyin calmed down her irritable mood, and said with a hint of disgust, "I noticed the auras of the two of them coming towards my house, so I came out to hide!"
Hearing this, anger appeared on Wu Gong's face: "A bunch of bastards, they really think we are easy to bully!"
Needless to say, Tian Zhiyu, after being kicked out of the core position by Shen Mo, was transferred to become the elder of Rising Sun Peak;
Yuan Shengcai is a member of the same clan as Supreme Elder Yuan Heming, Sect Master Yuan Qingshi, Mingyue Peak Master Yuan Jing, and former Yingxian Hall Master Yuan Chengshan. He is from the Yuan Clan, the most prominent and powerful Immortal Clan in Linjiang Sect. !
A year ago, for unknown reasons, this person began to pursue Zhao Lingyin with great fanfare, intending to become a Taoist companion with her.
Later, Zhao Lingyin reported it to the sect leader Yuan Qingshi. Under the sect leader's beating, Yuan Shengcai was stable for a while, but soon he started to act like a demon again and was driven away several times by Mingyu, Jiang Lingfeng and others.
Recently, Mingyu, Jiang Lingfeng and others were stationed at the entrance of the secret realm, strangling the two-winged flying snakes that broke in, unable to get away.
Elder Yuan of the Immortal Service Hall became more and more unscrupulous!
