Outside Zhongdu City, on Shenxiao Mountain.
Boom boom boom!
The huge copper bell magic weapon was rung over and over again, and the distant sound echoed in the mountains. The thousand-year-old temple was stagnant for a moment.
Everyone tilted their heads slightly and listened intently. Whether it was the boy cleaning the roadside or the master practicing in the cave, they all stopped.
It wasn't until a moment later that the bells stopped ringing, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Some of them were already covered in sweat.
On the steps of the mountain gate, two welcoming disciples wearing inner sect clothes saw the visitor being welcomed into the main hall by the masters of the sect. They involuntarily let out a breath, and their upright bodies collapsed.
One of them, a man with a fat head, big ears, and a simple face couldn't help complaining: "What wave is this? What wave is it?
I really didn't know that guarding the door in Shenxiao Dao Sect would be such a tiring task. If I had known, I wouldn't have let my father arrange this for me.
Look at my legs, they are almost swollen from standing? "
Next to him, the other man who was partnering with him was so handsome. Not only was he tall and straight, his face was handsome, but he also had an elegant manner.
Generally, immortal sects pay attention to their image and would select such disciples to welcome guests. However, he is not a rule-abiding person. After hearing the complaints, he couldn't help but send a message:
"It's the ninth wave. Here comes the Supreme Elder of the Taiyi Dan Sect. It is said that he has no longer been born and walked. He is a real powerful person in the Immortal Realm."
"But so what? The person in front may not be of a lower status than him."
"Why do you think they came here uninvited like this? I remember when the headmaster succeeded to the throne, it didn't seem to be such a pomp, right?"
"Haha, when the headmaster succeeds to the throne, it's really just a matter of sending someone to take care of it, but this time, it's really different."
"Brother, brother, just tell me, what's going on? Why do I have a bad feeling?"
"It's not good, that's right. Why do you think you have to put me in this position when you are my father?"
"Why?"
"Haha, I can't say, but you taste it, taste it carefully!"
The handsome man seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but widen his eyes: "You mean to escape from here..."
Ahem, no? No, it can’t reach that point, right? "
"Then who knows? Just be prepared!"
"But what exactly is it for?"
The fat man couldn't help but rolled his eyes and said, "Don't pretend to me, I don't believe you really haven't heard the news?"
"But that's just improving and optimizing the method, why is it so much?"
"Don't you understand this? This is a big deal!"
"Can you tell me more specifically?"
The fat man grinned and said in a very bad way: "If I knew what those big shots think, would I still stand here like you?"
"you……"
"Okay, okay, stop talking, someone else is here."
Boom boom boom…
Just then, the bronze bell magic weapon was struck again, and the distant sound echoed in the mountains again. When the two of them straightened their postures and looked into the distance, the smiles they had just hung froze again.
This time, their original carefree mentality was completely gone, and instead they were a little more frightened and uneasy.
Because, at the end of the field of vision, a dragon chariot shrouded in golden light and extremely luxurious was pulled by nine-headed heavenly horses, running above the sea of clouds.
There were dozens of immortal cultivators with powerful auras on the left and right, and thousands of guards riding horses and driving behind them, so majestic.
In the land of humans, there is only one person who is qualified to travel in a dragon chariot.
It was actually the human emperor Yin who came.
Although the distance between Shenxiao Daozong and Zhongdu is really not that far, the number of visits by Emperor Yin is really the first time in a hundred years!
At this moment, the two looked at each other, their eyes becoming increasingly heavy.
Of course, no one would pay attention to the mentality of the two little guys. Although Shenxiao Daozong was a little flustered by Di Yin's arrival, it still showed extremely high standards.
The headmaster Kongnian Taoist personally came forward to greet the people and welcomed them into the main hall.
When Emperor Yin entered the hall, the formation was activated, completely sealing off the area within ten miles, so that no one could enter.
At this time, in the main hall.
Dozens of people gathered together, and those on the left were all visitors, from the supreme elders and great elders of the eight immortal sects to the protectors and martial saints of the martial arts sects.
Those sitting on the right were all the senior officials of the Shenxiao Dao Sect, led by the headmaster Kong Nian Taoist, and there were also three Supreme Elders, including the Immortal Kong Qing who was a descendant of the Zhao family.
In addition, there are many Yang Shen Daxiu standing behind.
Well, in this scene, they didn't even sit here, they were just a group of people, their faces were ugly, and their eyes were so gloomy that they were almost dripping with water.
As for Di Yin, sitting at the top, there was nothing he could do. Even if he could only be regarded as a guest, as long as he came, this position could only be filled by him.
A dull and depressing atmosphere filled the air. No one spoke, but the invisible collisions continued in the void.
No one wants to be the first to speak, no one wants to weaken their momentum!
Theoretically speaking, this is the home court of the Shenxiao Dao Sect, but this time it is really a 'dragon crossing the river'. The visitors are basically at the level of immortals and martial saints, and they are more or less related to the top management committee of the human race. .
In other words, these people who came did not even represent themselves, but represented the Xianwu Sect behind them.
This situation is extremely unfavorable to the Shenxiao Dao Sect. Even the secret fight on their own territory can't even gain the slightest advantage.
In the top position, Emperor Yin didn't seem to be in a hurry to speak, but just watched with interest.
I don’t know how long it took, but the Shenxiao Taoist Sect finally couldn’t bear it anymore. Kong Nian gave him a look, and Immortal Kong Qing, who was dressed sloppily, jumped out immediately and shouted.
"What do you want to do? What do you want to do? Do you have to force me, the Shenxiao Dao Sect, to die?"
"The Supreme Management Committee of the human race represents the interests of the entire human race, but my Shenxiao Dao Sect is not considered a human race?"
"Don't go too far, otherwise, don't blame us for taking drastic actions."
"Do you believe it or not? Do you believe that I, the Shenxiao Dao Sect, have mobilized all the strength of the sect to launch a protest to the heaven and accuse you of being unfair and forcing the people to rebel?!!"
Well, you can imagine a scene where a celestial being can roll around like a shrew.
At this moment, even these immortals and martial saints were a little confused by the 'blow', but it was the same that broke the deadlock at this moment.
From the top position, Di Yin finally spoke: "Okay, Uncle Emperor, please stop for a moment. Even if you don't want the face of the immortal, you still want the face of the Zhao royal family!"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Immortal Kong Qing immediately stopped speaking. His Taoist robe was wiped randomly on his face, and all the snot and tears were gone.
He bowed politely and said, "It's me, Meng Lang. Please forgive me!"
Di Yin waved his hand and spoke again: "There are still many things to deal with in the imperial city, and I don't have much time to confront you. Since you don't want to speak, should I do it?
Empty thoughts on Taoist? "
Everyone's eyes focused on the person on the right, who was a chubby Taoist priest. He was wearing a gorgeous purple robe and a high crown. His eyes were small and always slightly squinted.
With this appearance, he looked like a good old man, but when facing everyone's gaze, he didn't panic at all.
He stood up, stood still, and said with a smile: "I have met His Majesty the Human Emperor!"
"You should be clear about the purpose of our visit. I don't speak secretly. I just want to ask, has Heaven really optimized and improved the "Shenxiao Yu Lei Jing" for you?"
Taoist Kong Nian smiled 'haha' and said: "This is why His Majesty the Human Emperor is here, so why do you have to ask such questions?"
Di Yin ignored his attitude, but followed up with another sentence: "Did it achieve the 30% increase in power promised by Heaven?"
Facing everyone's gaze, Taoist Kong Nian raised his head slightly, his eyes met God Yin's, and then he looked at all the visitors without giving in, and then said: "It seems that everyone wants to know?
In fact, this is very simple. You just need to offer a sum of merit, and then attach your own method to suppress it to the heaven. Wait for a while, and you will know, right? "
"Why bother?"
This time it was not Di Yin who spoke, but an immortal on the left-hand seat.
His expression was extremely indifferent, sitting there like a stone. When he was not speaking, his presence was extremely low, but when he was speaking, no one could ignore him.
The reason is also simple. He comes from Taishang Daozong, and his surname is Ning. These two are enough.
That is, he stared at Taoist Kong Nian with his emotionless eyes and said: "Since we are here, can't you just tell us the result?
Or is it that the headmaster doesn't want to tell us? "
"I am willing, how could I not be willing?!
You are here to represent the Supreme Management Council of the human race. How dare I not do so! "
Taoist Kong Nian suddenly laughed and blurted out slightly sarcastic words, but the next second, he shrugged again and said: "The problem is, we don't know either!"
"How could you not know?"
"It's very simple. Tianting has indeed helped my Shenxiao Dao Sect optimize the magical power method, but we have just obtained it and have not been familiar with it or practiced it.
As for the specific power?
Of course it’s not clear! "
There seems to be nothing wrong with this, but everyone is not easy to fool. Another martial saint narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Are you trying to prevaricate me?"
Taoist Kong Nian shrugged and said helplessly: "You insisted on letting me say it, but you don't believe it when I say it?
As far as I'm concerned, you just didn't tell me the answer you thought you had.
Okay, okay, now I will tell you that it has been achieved. The power of Tianting’s optimized and improved "Shenxiao Yuleijing" has been increased by 30%. Are you happy with it? ! "
"you……"
Some were restless, some were angry, and a group of people stood up.
And the Shenxiao Taoist Sect did not show any weakness, each and every one of them was full of magic power, and they were very willing to fight if they disagreed.
However, before they could really take any action, a huge coercion fell from the sky. Although it could not be said to be able to subdue everyone, the power that was different from the immortal martial arts made everyone turn around.
It turned out that the human emperor Yin stood up. Although it was just a small movement, it was so powerful that everyone was surprised.
"I am the human emperor and the co-lord of the human race. Do you really not take me seriously?"
His voice was faint and cold, and for some reason, everyone just felt a chill creep into their hearts.
It was only then that everyone discovered that the Human Emperor had embarked on the path of Shinto, and it seemed that his level was not low.
"Don't dare!"
"I can't wait!"
Taoist Kong Nian bowed his head first, and the others also borrowed their donkeys from the slope and stopped talking.
It was only then that Emperor Yin looked at Kong Nian and said, "I know that Shenxiao Daozong has always wanted to have a seat in Jinghu Lake, but you should also know that it is impossible in a short time.
But I, the Zhao royal family, have three quotas, and I can give you one from the Shenxiao Dao Sect for auditing purposes. "
A sarcastic smile appeared on Taoist Kong Nian's lips, as if he felt that this 'empty promise' was meaningless.
But the next second, his smile froze.
Because, Human Emperor Yin continued: "Of course, this kind of 'auditing' is indeed meaningless, but we can guarantee your inheritance rights to Shenxiao Daozong."
After a pause, he added: "It is the inheritance of the seventeenth seat of the Human Race's Supreme Management Committee."
Inheritance, these three words may seem ordinary, but they have far-reaching meanings.
Because when the Supreme Council of the Human Race was formed, there were actually many sects, especially martial arts sects, whose own strength was not very good!
They occupied this position because the inspecting immortal official wanted to balance the two sides of immortality and martial arts, and there was such a martial saint.
But this is not a good thing. The principle of 'if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight' is applicable everywhere. Therefore, the Heavenly Court proposed the concept of 'inheritance'.
In other words, if there are immortal sects and martial arts sects that cannot keep up with the development of the times, fall behind, or are destroyed, they will be replaced by the subsequent immortal martial arts sects that have the right to inherit.
This is to ensure that there will be no vacancies among the seventeen seats in Jinghu Lake, and it is also to urge the Xianwu Sect sitting there to keep them enterprising. It also left opportunities for other immortal sects to improve.
The truth is, if you can't develop even if you stand in that position, then it's not because you don't give a chance, but simply because you can't help yourself. If you are replaced, you can't blame others.
It was also because of the emergence of this 'right of inheritance' that Mo Chengjun specially moved the thrones that originally stood side by side into a circle.
As soon as these words came out, the air became silent again. Taoist Kong Nian slowly straightened his body, suppressed his smile, looked at Emperor Yin with great seriousness, and asked: "Is what you said true?"
Human Emperor Yin looked at him and asked, "If not, why do you think I came?"
"But why, why are you, the Zhao royal family, willing to let go?"
"Instead of making you so timid and unwilling to contribute, it is better to give you freedom and let you play to your heart's content.
At this moment, it is the time for our human race to rise up, and we should not let you remain silent. "
"But, it's impossible for other Xianwu sects to agree..."
Taoist Kong Nian still wanted to say something, but when he turned around and saw the silent immortal martial saints, he suddenly understood.
They should have reached a consensus before they came.
There was another long pause. Taoist Kong Nian had countless thoughts and kept eye contact with his brothers for a long time.
Finally, he looked at the Human Emperor Yin with an extremely complicated expression: "I have to admit that you are an extremely outstanding Human Emperor, with a big heart and courage comparable to His Majesty Emperor Hao.
It is my human race’s luck to have you sitting in this position! "
"Excuse me!" Even Emperor Yin's city couldn't help but twist his lips at this moment.
Taoist Kong Nian said again: "Then tell me, what exactly do you want us to do?"
Di Yin waved his hand and said: "We are here just for your new version of "Shen Xiao Yu Lei Jing" and nothing else."
Okay, it's back to the old problem, but Taoist Kong Nian is confused.
He frowned and said: "His Majesty the Human Emperor, your question really stumps us. If we have to figure it out, we have to open up two versions of the "Shen Xiao Yu Lei Jing" to you.
But after all, it is the fundamental method of our Shenxiao Dao Sect, and it cannot be disclosed to outsiders. "
"No need to go to that trouble!"
Human Emperor Yin just looked at Taoist Kong Nian, his eyes calm but firm: "You just need to tell us, has the "Shen Xiao Yu Lei Jing" optimized by Tianting really increased by 30%?"
Taoist Kong Nian nodded seriously, but then shook his head. Facing everyone's doubtful eyes, he said: "There is an increase, but it is far more than 30%!"
The answer seemed unexpected, but also seemed to be expected, and still caused an uproar in the audience.
Taoist Kong Nian's voice sounded faintly amidst the uproar of the crowd: "Let me say something that I shouldn't say. If everyone has enough merit, they should send all their own methods.
What kind of place is Heavenly Court? How could it covet our Dharma?
But the secret records of techniques that have been optimized and improved by their hands can be considered the true pinnacle of this world. "
Half a day later, the human emperor Yin took the lead to leave in a dragon chariot, followed closely by the other immortals and martial saints who turned into escaping light and left.
And Shenxiao Daozong finally relaxed from the tension, and then fell into ecstasy.
What the human emperor Yin threw out was a great benefit, but it was also a poisonous fairy fruit. What would happen after eating it?
It’s really hard to say!
But this is the best way out for the Shenxiao Dao Sect. They cannot hesitate, and they are not given a chance to hesitate.
Half a day later, the bronze bell in the mountain rang again, but this time it was no longer to welcome guests, but to summon the sect's senior officials to discuss important matters!
…
Of course, this is a big deal for the Shenxiao Dao Sect, but it doesn't even have the qualifications to be heard by Mo Chengjun.
What really shocked him was that after the Shenxiao Dao Sect, the eight major Immortal Sects actually offered their own methods of suppressing the sect one after another, and also offered a large amount of merit in order to optimize and improve.
I was actually a little hesitant to write this chapter. If I didn’t add it, it would seem like something was missing. If I added it, I guess some readers would say I’m stupid. It’s difficult...
(End of chapter)
