Seeing Cheng Ling deep in thought, Uncle Ming nodded with satisfaction. He knew that Cheng Ling was following his own train of thought. There are some things that just saying them is useless. Only by deeply understanding them can you see the true meaning of the matter.
After waiting for a while, he said again: "Next, the last item is the land. The land can be said to be a region or a region. It generally refers to whether the cultivation environment is excellent."
"So far, almost no outsider knows the location of the Songfengguan sect. You can imagine how deeply they hide it. Doesn't such a sect make people feel scary?"
Cheng Ling nodded again. For a killer organization, the most fearful thing is the revenge of others. As the saying goes, those who kill will always kill. But you don’t even know where his sect is, so how can you talk about revenge?
He fully understood, bowed to Uncle Ming and said, "Thank you very much for your advice, Uncle Ming. It seems that I have really underestimated Songfengguan in the past."
Uncle Ming said: "None of the four major forces is easy to get along with. The Thunder Immortal Mansion and Songfeng Temple are like this. I guess Wuji Sect doesn't need me to say more. But I still have to remind you that as a person of my own origin Sect, what you see in front of you is just the tip of the iceberg, and there are still many invisible strengths that have yet to be revealed.”
Cheng Ling thought of Jiang Haoyang's Jiang family army and nodded silently. In fact, he didn't even know the strength in name, let alone the hidden strength.
"Next, only Chaoyang Temple is left! I don't know much about this sect. I only know that it is one of the oldest sects in the immortal world, older than the other three major forces. According to old legend, Chaoyang Temple The temple is almost a sword cultivating sect, but there are very few disciples walking around in the immortal world, so its reputation is not as prominent as that of the Wuji Sect."
"Sword cultivator sect?" Cheng Ling's heart moved. This was a bit surprising. He didn't expect that one of the four major forces in the immortal world was actually a pure sword cultivator sect.
Uncle Ming said: "Well, I also heard that I know very little about the situation in Chaoyang Temple."
Cheng Ling glanced at him and felt a hint of insincerity in his words, but he didn't say anything. Uncle Ming had benefited a lot from him by explaining the origins, strength, etc. of the four major forces, at least not as completely as before. Uninformed.
And he felt that what he was talking about on the surface was about the four major forces, and it seemed to have nothing to do with him. But inside, he analyzed all the connections very thoroughly, as if he was admonishing himself about what to pay attention to and how to go forward.
After a moment of silence, Cheng Ling asked again: "Apart from the four major forces, what about the other sects?"
Uncle Ming said: "If the four major forces can be regarded as super forces, then let's talk about the first-class forces. There are currently three first-class forces in the immortal world, namely Piaomiao Snow Sect, Tiandao Sect, and Tianxin Pavilion."
"Don't underestimate these three first-class forces. Although they are far behind the four super powers in terms of overall strength, they are not simple. More importantly, these three first-class forces are somewhat stronger than Songfengguan and Thunder Immortal Mansion. It’s still early to rise.”
"The number one ranking is Piaomiao Snow Sect. This sect has existed for a very long time, but it is not as good as the four great immortal emperors in terms of high-end combat power. In addition, in the past ten thousand years, the sect has not had any outstanding disciples, resulting in its increasing popularity. drop."
"But the lifespan of a monk is long. Being strong for a while does not mean that it can last forever. Especially those at the Immortal Emperor level can survive for tens of thousands of years. It cannot be ruled out whether there are powerful ten thousand-year-old monsters in the sect."
"However, Piaomiao Snow Sect has always been located in the north. In the past, it has rarely been involved in matters in the fairy world. It's just strange that it is so high-profile this time. It actually participates in the battle between Buddhism and Taoism. It even sends a saint girl."
Cheng Ling's heart moved slightly and asked: "Uncle Ming, have you ever heard that there are usually several saints in Piaomiao Snow Sect?"
Uncle Ming was stunned and said: "Of course there is only one. The Saint of Misty Snow Sect has a transcendent status and is often the successor to the next sect leader. How can there be multiple Saints?"
Hearing Uncle Ming's explanation, Cheng Ling suddenly felt heartbroken. If there is really only one saint, and the one born now is Yun Jingshan, then where is Jingwen?
After two inquiries, Yun Jingshan said that she was in retreat, but she never saw her. Where did the Piaomiao Snow Sect put her? He was anxious in his heart and asked: "Has the Saint of Piao Miao Snow Sect always been Yun Jingshan? Has Uncle Ming ever heard of anyone else serving as Saint?"
Uncle Ming said doubtfully: "My little friend seems to be very interested in Piaomiao Snow Sect. To be honest, from the news I received, the only saint of Piaomiao Snow Sect is Yun Jingshan. As for the previous saint, she has now become a member of the sect. The sect leader is titled Wuying Immortal Emperor."
Cheng Ling frowned. It seemed that Yun Jingwen must have encountered something unexpected. Perhaps the Piaomiao Snow Sect had blocked the news. It's just that it can't be confirmed at all now. It can be logically inferred that her situation should be very unlucky, and she can't wait to go to Misty Snow Sect.
But with his current strength, he doesn't have the confidence to challenge Piaomiao Snow Sect. He is a first-rate force no matter what, and he doesn't even know if he can get in by himself.
His face suddenly darkened and he asked, "How strong is the Piaomiao Snow Sect? How many Immortal Emperors are there?"
"I don't know the specific strength. I only know that in addition to Immortal Emperor Wuying, Piaomiao Snow Sect also has two elders of Immortal Emperors, namely Immortal Emperor Wuhai and Immortal Emperor Wuhui."
"My little friend, I would like to advise you, no matter what grudges you have with Piaomiao Snow Sect, don't come to provoke them easily. Although these three immortal emperors are all women, they have weird personalities and it is difficult to talk to them."
"Actually, the name of the Saint may sound nice, but in reality, she is nothing more than a rotten skin. With my talent and qualifications, why bother looking for the Saint of Misty Snow Sect!"
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly. Uncle Ming had obviously misunderstood what he thought about Yun Jingshan, just like his wife, and he also issued the same admonishment. This was a good intention, and he was not prepared to explain it, so he could only deal with it with a few vague words.
However, he was even more anxious in his heart. He learned from Uncle Ming that the Immortal Emperors of Piao Miao Snow Sect were not simple things, and their personalities were very withdrawn. When he thought about the tragic situation in the Forbidden Land of Ice, it was even more so for Yun Jingwen. Worry about the situation.
Uncle Ming saw that his brows were furrowed and his thoughts were not on the forces of the immortal world at all, so he said: "There are also Tiandao Sect and Tianxin Pavilion. Are you willing to continue to understand them?"
Cheng Ling suppressed his impatience and said, "Now that we have reached this point, please let Uncle Ming continue to give you some guidance!"
Uncle Ming nodded slightly and said: "The remaining two first-class forces are Tiandao Sect and Tianxin Pavilion. These two sects are new forces that have only become strong in the past ten thousand years."
"The Tiandao Sect is very powerful and is very keen on competing for the interests of the immortal world. It is a pure Taoist sect and regards the Buddhist philosophy as a poisonous snake and beast. Therefore, it vowed to destroy Buddhism and participated in several attacks against Buddhism. Unfortunately, the Buddhist sect is very powerful. It’s hard for them to take advantage on their own.”
"The Tianxin Pavilion is better at planning. Their sect's highest mental method is called the Qiqiao Exquisite Heart. It can see through all the illusions in the world and is also proficient in battle formations. It has actively planned and produced great effects in the previous conquests against the Buddha Sect. "
"Of course, the Taoist Sect has three first-class forces, and the Buddha Sect is no less generous. The Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, Fahua Temple, and Fanjing Mountain are all the best among them. Their strength is comparable to the three first-class forces."
"These are the major forces of the Buddhist and Taoist sects. As for the other second- and third-rate sects, there are countless others. It would take three days and three nights to describe them all. I don't want to know them all, right?"
Cheng Ling shook his head and said bitterly: "Thank you Uncle Ming for the tip. Those forces don't want to know for the time being, but there is still a trace of doubt in my heart that I can't let go."
"What doubts?"
"What is the fight between the Buddhist sect and the Taoist sect? We are all on different sides, and there is a bloody wasteland in between. There is no need to fight to the death!"
Uncle Ming sighed and said: "After all, this is the key. The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism is actually a battle of luck and interests. No matter which side wins, they will do their best to suppress the other side. The cruelty in it is fundamental unimaginable."
"My little friend has only ascended to the Immortal Realm for a short period of time. I have never experienced such a tragic situation, but I have witnessed it with my own eyes! Just a few hundred years ago, in this small border town in the bloody wasteland, the Taoist sect was completely defeated, and the Buddha Sect completely occupied it. Upward."
"And the final result was that there were not even one monk left in the city. They either died or were taken captive to the Buddhist headquarters to build temples for them and exploit mining resources. Don't think that because they believe in Buddhism, they will have good intentions. In fact, His actions are even worse than those of Shura evil ghosts."
"Furthermore, if Buddhism wants to preach, it needs a large amount of mass resources. Whether it is ordinary people or cultivators, all of them will propagate their fallacies. It is said that all living beings are equal and can become Buddhas, but only those Buddhas can truly exist. High-level officials."
"They use ordinary people or low-level monks as stepping stones to plunder resources, trample on dignity, and let others work hard day and night, while they themselves enjoy the results. Do you think there is such a Buddha in this world? Is there such a kind of blind deception? Is there a god for whom the human heart has sacrificed its life?”
"There are still many unwritten rules for our cultivation. For example, we cannot kill mortals wantonly. We must try our best to obtain any resources and opportunities. And what is Buddhism? We do those dirty things under the cloak of hypocrisy and get something for nothing. , and become a moth in all living things!”
"These are battles of interests, and the battle of fate is even more mysterious, illusory, rootless and endless. It's just that a battle at that level only belongs to those who stand at the pinnacle of the immortal world, and we are not qualified to participate at all."
After Uncle Ming finished speaking, he let out a long breath, as if he was still immersed in hatred and resentment towards the Buddha. One can imagine how disdainful and repulsive he was to the Buddhist philosophy.
Cheng Ling fell into silence completely. Concepts, orthodoxy, beliefs, destiny, Buddhism and Taoism were all completely different, and the grudges were deep and impossible to resolve. If you encounter a Buddhist disciple in the future, it is best not to make any changes and just draw your sword.
Because this is a general trend that no one can easily change!
