Every sect has its own heritage and foundation. The Huayang Sect can be passed down for thousands of years and remain undefeated because of the Five Jue Mountains left by the ancestor of Huayangzi, which can not only produce various heavenly materials and earthly treasures, but also provide training for the disciples of the sect. .
Now that Wujue Mountain has suffered an impact, the barrier between Xuanmu Mountain and Tianshui Mountain has been destroyed. This is tantamount to breaking the original ecological balance. In a short period of time, the vegetation and spiritual beasts in it will suffer huge losses; and even if it stabilizes in the future , Tianshui Mountain and Xuanmu Mountain will also be completely integrated into one, and no one will be allowed to enter without building a foundation.
As a result, all disciples who have not established a foundation will lose Xuanmu Mountain as a place of experience, and will not be able to continue to obtain cultivation resources in Xuanmu Mountain. Then foundation building will be more difficult for Huayang Sect disciples, which will also have a huge impact on the improvement of Huayang Sect's overall strength.
As the culprit, Li Xiuping is afraid that he will not only face punishment from the elders of the Huayang Sect, but will also be regarded as an enemy by the entire Huayang Sect disciples.
Ruining someone's future is like killing their parents. Once those enemies know that it was Li Xiuping who killed Lao Huai and placed countless foundation-building monsters in Xuanmu Mountain, they may directly seek out Li Xiuping to fight for their lives.
It's just that these are not what Li Xiuping is worried about now, or he simply can't think of this step now, and he doesn't have the time to think about it, because behind him, countless monsters are chasing after him, and no matter how he runs, he just can't get rid of them. Monster.
Li Xiuping naturally thought that the cause of this situation must have a lot to do with the spiritual seed. In other words, if you want to get rid of these monsters, you only need to throw out the spiritual seed. But that spiritual seed can be chased by so many monsters, and its preciousness is evident. Naturally, Li Xiuping will not take it out easily.
The most important point is that although Li Xiuping doesn't know what happened now, he also knows that it must be related to the old locust tree. Now that Laohuai has been beheaded, there is only such a spiritual seed left. If he throws it to these monsters, I am afraid it will only cause more trouble. It is better to take it back first. Maybe it can still be used in Huayang Sect. Make amends.
Therefore, this spiritual seed must not be thrown away unless absolutely necessary!
Just when Li Xiuping had a headache on how to get rid of these monsters, a human figure descended from the sky, and at the same time pressed down with a palm, using powerful supernatural powers to push back the monsters, and then formed seals with both hands to drive a roulette-like magic weapon to block him. forward.
The person who came was the tall elder. At this moment, he looked back at Li Xiuping. He was obviously a little angry, but he did not get angry at this time. Instead, he said in a deep voice: "Leave quickly."
Li Xiuping glanced at those monsters without any hesitation. After bowing to the great elder, he turned around and ran back.
As Li Xiuping left, countless Huayang Sect elders appeared one after another, and together with the great elder, they took action to resist the impact of those monsters.
Dozens of golden elixir masters took action at the same time, finally suppressing the monster's offensive temporarily.
After confirming that the monster beast was temporarily suppressed, the Great Elder asked directly: "How is the situation?"
An elder took the lead in replying: "There are no casualties on my side, and all of them have been sent out of Xuanmu Mountain."
Another elder continued: "The situation is similar here. Although there are injured people, they are not serious."
One after another, people informed them of their situation. After hearing this, the Great Elder's originally gloomy expression became much better. Although there were casualties, they were almost negligible. This was considered the best result.
Hundreds of years ago, a similar situation happened here, but the casualties that time were not small. The decline of Huayang Sect also started from that incident. The country was in decline, and in just a few hundred years, it became the kind of people it is now. The situation of Ding withering.
At that time, this place was not called Xuanmu Mountain. It was precisely because of that incident that the name Xuanmu Mountain came into being. And this time of change, the name Xuanmu Mountain is destined to disappear in the history of Huayang Sect. Even if it is mentioned by others, it can only be remembered.
Now that the leader is not on the mountain, everything can only be done by the elder himself, which naturally includes some things that are beyond his power.
After confirming that the situation on Xuanmu Mountain was stable, the Great Elder said directly: "The next affairs of the sect will be left to Junior Brother Ma. Senior brothers above the middle stage of Jindan will follow me into the next few floors. At least the lower three The situation on the ground floor is stable.”
As he spoke, he waved his sleeves, and the ring-like magic weapon spun quickly, and then rushed forward, forcibly cutting out an avenue. The tall old man rushed forward along this avenue. .
As the great elder took action, those elders who had reached the middle stage of the golden elixir followed closely behind, and soon disappeared into the beast tide, and the remaining elders retreated one after another.
If Li Xiuping were here, he would be filled with emotion. It is also a beast tide, but when faced with an ordinary beast tide, Ye Xingsi can only choose to abandon Qingyang County, while Huayang Sect is just a few Jindan strongmen, but they can force their way in when faced with a beast tide composed of third-level monsters. , which is enough to prove the terror of the powerful people in the Golden Core stage.
If Qingyang County can have a few Jindan strongmen participate in the defense, even if the beast tide cannot be completely repelled, it is not impossible to block it and temporarily relieve the pressure on Qingyang County. It's a pity that there is no such thing. The only force that can resist the beast tide is Ye Xingsi.
Of course, the major sects must have their own reasons for not coming forward to resist the monsters. In addition to the so-called Immortal Ascension Conference, I am afraid there are other reasons. After all, many sects have always adhered to the purpose of eliminating demons and doing their best, and would come forward even for the sake of reputation.
So even if Li Xiuping saw all this, he would at most be impressed by the power of the Golden Core masters, and would not have any opinions on these sects. Don't say that Li Xiuping doesn't understand the truth of the matter and won't judge at will. Even if he understands, he won't judge anything, because apart from his own practice, he doesn't care about the right and wrong of this world at all.
It is precisely because of this that although he has joined Huayang Sect now, he does not feel that he needs to do anything for Huayang Sect. At least so far, in the entire Huayang Sect, except for Xu Bansheng, he doesn't care about anyone or anything at all.
Even in Qingyang County, after two years in the Night Travel Division, the only one he cared about was Gao Yunmian.
In fact, in addition to Li Xiuping's own character, it also has a lot to do with the situation of Ye Xingsi. It is really because of the matter of fighting against monsters, life and death. The person who was still chatting and laughing with you in the morning may not even have a corpse left at night.
This is the normal state of Night Travel Division.
The only way to get used to this normality is to be indifferent.
As long as you don't invest any emotions, you won't be sad about the life and death of the people around you, and you can stay calm and rational at all times, so you can find a way to survive...
As Li Xiuping walked out of the Xuanmu Mountain boundary, he found countless elders and disciples waiting outside to assist him. When he saw Li Xiuping coming out, two elders immediately stepped forward to confirm Li Xiuping's injury, and then two more disciples took Li Xiuping with him. Repair and settle down.
Like Li Xiuping, there were many people who came out of Xuanmu Mountain, and many of them were even injured. Therefore, there was no need for Li Xiuping to ask anything. He could get the general idea of the whole thing from the conversations of these disciples.
As he had guessed before, the main cause of this incident was the thousand-year-old locust tree, so Li Xiuping didn't look good at the moment.
Because of one of his actions, countless Huayang Sect disciples were injured, and some even died. This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that this move directly shakes the foundation of the entire Huayang Sect. Even if he is a disciple of Mr. Ou Ye, the elders of the Huayang Sect will not spare him lightly; and Even those disciples of Huayang Sect who have not yet established their foundation will definitely regard him as an enemy bandit from now on and want to kill him as soon as possible.
Li Xiuping now just hopes that no one will know that he did it, otherwise his situation in Huayang Sect will be even more difficult in the future.
Soon several disciples from the alchemy room ran over, observing Li Xiuping's condition with their eyes up and down. After confirming that Li Xiuping was fine, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Junior Brother Li, our mission has been completed, and the reward this time will definitely be great. Of course, your reward will definitely be the most generous."
After confirming that Li Xiuping was fine, the disciple named Hao sat down in front of Li Xiuping and said with a smile.
Everyone should be happy to hear this kind of thing, but Li Xiuping really can't be happy now?
award?
Li Xiuping really didn't dare to hope that he would be punished without being punished.
"But this is really strange. After all, that old locust tree had a millennium of Taoism, peak foundation-building strength, and was closely related to the fate of the Huayang Sect. Why was it suddenly killed? Our Huayang Sect's Jin Danqiang Most of them are elders, and they all know the importance of the old locust tree to Huayang Sect. It is impossible to do such a thing. Could it be that strong men from other sects sneaked in..."
The monk surnamed Hao murmured in a low voice, with a puzzled look on his face.
The handsome and extraordinary disciple said with a bitter face: "No matter what, our Huayang Sect has suffered heavy losses this time. Especially those of us disciples who have not yet established a foundation, directly lost an excellent place like Xuanmu Mountain." A place of experience. It will only be more difficult to obtain more cultivation resources in the future."
A disciple said at this time: "With our talents, foundation building is far away. Whether or not there is Xuanmu Mountain will not have much impact on us."
The handsome and extraordinary disciple smiled and said: "That's true, but there was hope before, but now there is no hope. Don't you feel that life has suddenly lost all meaning?"
Everyone also looked bitter, especially some disciples who had reached the fifth or sixth level of cultivation.
Originally, there was a treasure land called Xuanmu Mountain. As long as we worked hard enough and given time, it was only a matter of time before we could successfully build the foundation. But now that Xuanmu Mountain is gone, it will only prolong the time for them to build the foundation. It's strange that they are in a good mood.
The more Li Xiuping listened, the more he felt that he was heinous.
The key is that he is also very aggrieved. If he had known that such a big thing would happen, he would never have taken advantage of the thousand-year-old locust tree. It's a good thing now. I have just entered Huayang Sect and haven't even had time to figure out the situation of foundation building. I will be recorded in the history of Huayang Sect and become the sinner of the entire Huayang Sect...
Just when Li Xiuping was having mixed feelings in his heart, the elder responsible for issuing the mission walked quickly towards this side, his face obviously not good-looking.
After the elder came over, he stared directly at Li Xiuping and said, "Li Xiuping, Elder Wan wants to see you."
Li Xiuping had obviously anticipated this and immediately stood up and followed the elder away.
Seeing Li Xiuping being taken away alone, several disciples in the alchemy room couldn't help but feel a little envious. They all felt that this junior brother must have performed well in Xuanmu Mountain and Elder Wan would personally commend him.
Such a comparison makes everyone feel that life is more and more boring. They are both disciples of the Huayang Sect, and they are both in the alchemy room, but the gap is too big.
Li Xiuping had just started, and was directly summoned by Elder Wan to personally commend him. However, they had been starting for several years, and apart from being reprimanded by the elders of the sect, they had never been truly commended.
The key is that Junior Brother Li is young and has amazing strength. The current changes in Xuanmu Mountain will not have any impact on him at all. He can still enter Xuanmu Mountain to obtain resources in the future...
Comparing people to each other makes people angry.
However, one thing made them feel gratified, that is, they were lucky enough to work with and get to know this Junior Brother Li.
Now that something like this has happened, there is no doubt that in the future, the disciples of the entire Huayang Sect who have established the foundation and above will become more and more happy, while those of them who have not yet established the foundation will only become more and more miserable.
The reason is simple. They cannot enter Xuanmu Mountain to obtain resources, so they can only buy them from those disciples who have already established a foundation, and those disciples who have already established a foundation will definitely charge a lot of money.
The key is that even if you are willing to pay, you may not be able to buy it. In the entire Huayang Sect, disciples who have not established foundation account for seven or eight levels of the total number of disciples. You can imagine how urgent the need for resources is with your toes.
In other words, in the future, Huayang Sect is destined to make the strong stronger and the weak weaker. Especially those disciples who have not yet established a foundation are destined to be exploited by those who have already established a foundation.
Of course, they are also the ones being exploited, but now that they know Junior Brother Li, the situation should be better.
After all, if they go to this Junior Brother Li to buy resources in the future, this Junior Brother Li will more or less remember the friendship they have shared over the past few days, and the price will not be too high.
Of course, this still depends on whether Junior Brother Li is someone who misses his old love...
Elder Wan's face was so gloomy at the moment, because Li Xiuping was now a disciple of his alchemy room, and this matter was bound to have something to do with him no matter what.
Li Xiuping followed the alchemy elder to Elder Wan, saluted and said, "Disciple has met Elder Wan."
Elder Wan narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at Li Xiuping, and asked directly: "Did you kill that old locust tree?"
Li Xiuping had no intention of hiding anything, so he nodded directly without any hesitation at this moment: "Yes."
When Elder Wan heard this answer, he was also not surprised. He nodded and said, "I understand. You can go back first. You will stay at your residence for the next two days and don't go anywhere."
Li Xiuping was stunned when he heard the words of Elder Wan, but he didn't say anything. After saluting, he left directly.
