After Xu Zhuang invited Sun Suzhen to sit down in his mansion, he listened carefully to Sun Suzhen's words.
"Didn't the five order masters in the past agree to open the Dao Zang together? Since then, perhaps for the purpose of testing, the order masters have been in constant contact with each other, and it seems that the opening of the Dao Zang has become a foregone conclusion..."
"I didn't expect that fifteen years ago, a commander suddenly disappeared."
Speaking of this, Sun Suzhen showed helplessness on his face: "Before this, the commander attacked and killed the commander. As soon as the news about this commander was lost, other commanders immediately became wary of each other. The matter of opening up Tao Zang has become empty talk.”
Xu Zhuang said: "So we haven't actually been able to open Tao Zang yet?"
"That's right." Sun Suzhen sighed and responded: "I have been preparing for the opening of Tao Zang for a long time. In addition to you, my junior brother, I have also obtained the commitments of two true brothers. If I fail in this effort, I am really unwilling to fail, so I To find out this matter, I took the initiative to go out and want to investigate clearly..."
Xu Zhuang asked, "Senior Brother, has this been revealed?"
"No." Sun Suzhen laughed and said: "For this matter, I ran around and revealed my identity to Shangxuanzong to worship the mountain. Although it was verified that the leader was Tan Chong, the contemporary true successor of Shangxuanzong, I even fought with him. A lot of effort, but there is no other gain.”
"After leaving Shangxuanzong, I went to look for the person who attacked and killed the leader twenty years ago. But before I could find the trace, the missing leader suddenly appeared again without a sound, and Once it appears, we must restart the process of opening Daozang."
"Oh?" Xu Zhuang frowned and said, "This matter seems a bit abnormal."
"Of course there is deceit." Sun Suzhen sneered, "But how can I, Sun Suzhen, be afraid? Tan Chong and the other person did not back down. This time they were straightforward and agreed on a date for the reunion."
"I see." At this point, Sun Suzhen had already made clear his intention, and Xu Zhuang looked at the billowing sea of clouds and already had the intention of agreeing.
Naturally, he did not seek Dao to be brave and fierce, but he did have an interest in seeing some of his peers' geniuses...especially Zhong Shen showing off his charm.
And there is another important reason. Fayuan Sect is a major Taoist sect in ancient times. There must be various opportunities in Tao Zang, which may help him quickly get rid of the current difficulties in cultivation.
What's more, Xu Zhuang had promised Sun Suzhen before going out to the East China Sea. He had no habit of breaking promises easily. After returning to the sect, he also looked for Sun Suzhen and learned that he was no longer in the sect, so he went to Liushui Cave Heaven to practice.
His mind turned twice, Xu Zhuang had already made up his mind, and Sun Suzhen said: "I wonder if the promise made by my junior brother seventeen years ago still counts?"
Xu Zhuang smiled slightly and responded: "Natural will do the math."
Sun Suzhen was overjoyed when he heard this and said: "Okay! With the help of my junior brother, I should be very sure!"
Xu Zhuang laughed and wondered how he dared to do so, and then asked: "I wonder how many senior brothers you have invited to help us now? And when will we go to the gathering?"
Sun Suzhen shook his head and said: "Originally, I have received the promise from Senior Brother Nangong and Senior Brother Yue. Unexpectedly, something happened on the way. Senior Brother Nangong left the sect three years ago because of something. I only said that if there is a day to restart Daozang, I can write again. It’s too late to make contact now.”
"But fortunately, Senior Brother Yue is still here, and now that I have the help of Junior Brother, I am still confident that convincing one more helper can be enough to deal with all obstacles."
"That's very good." Xu Zhuang thought for a moment and then said: "There is one more person. Who is Senior Brother looking for?"
Sun Suzhen said: "I have a good senior brother who is also from the Yue clan. He has refined the middle-grade golden elixir and his magical powers are not ordinary. I can ask him to help me."
Xu Zhuang nodded. He was from a rich family and had refined a middle-grade golden elixir, which was indeed a help.
He originally thought that if Sun Suzhen had no clue, he could bring Liyun with him, but in this case there was no need.
Sun Suzhen added: "According to the Lord's agreement, the gathering day will be after three months, but I will leave early. After two months, if my junior brother is ready, he can come to Suzhen Peak to find me."
After saying this, he bowed his hand to Xu Zhuang, and Xu Zhuang returned the courtesy. Sun Suzhen laughed, stood up and left without staying any longer.
"There are still two months, so we should really make some preparations." Xu Zhuang pondered for a moment, then suddenly made a spell and shouted through a voice: "Split Cloud, come see me quickly."
After a while, I saw a dragon slipping into the entrance of the cave and said respectfully: "Master, you are back."
Xu Zhuang was surprised: "What are you...?"
Liyun said with a flattering smile: "The little beast has just completely refined the Fuhaihou Jiao Pearl recently, and the demonic body is in the process of metamorphosis."
It turns out that this dragon is very different now. It has horns on its head and is quite powerful, but its scales, some green and some gray and black, are not very beautiful at all.
Xu Zhuang nodded when he heard this, and called Liyun forward. Liyun swam up to Xu Zhuang and asked, "Master, what are your instructions for calling me?"
Xu Zhuang did not answer. He took out the talisman paper from his sleeve and unfolded it on the case. He took out the pen and ink, and hovered the pen on the paper for a moment before touching the surface of the paper and making an ink dot, but he still did not start writing.
Xu Zhuang frowned. Sure enough, the strange characters of the demon's real name could not be easily written on paper. After thinking for a while, he wrote down the eleven characters of "The Great Zi Zi Xuanjun Liu Miao Yu Zhuo Emperor" in ordinary characters. The talisman paper shook slightly and was handed into the Splitting Cloud Claw.
Liyun took the talisman and looked at it carefully. There was doubt in his eyes. He looked at it carefully again and still couldn't figure it out. Then he asked: "Master, is this?"
Xu Zhuang sighed lightly, put away the talisman paper again, and then said: "Nothing, you can go and practice on your own."
Liyun scratched his head, not knowing why, and seeing that Xu Zhuang was not interested, he left the house again.
Xu Zhuang thought in his heart: "Knowing its name and feeling it, what kind of achievement is it? True Lord Chunyang may not have this ability, and it is absolutely impossible for this demon lord from outside the world to have such magical powers. The demon's inspiration is indeed It can be spread in a special way.”
Since refining Mingzun Xiangpei, Xu Zhuang has eliminated the disturbance of evil spirits, but it has not been eradicated after all. In order to find a solution once and for all, Xu Zhuang spent a lot of time trying to figure out the chapters in the "Yuan Zun's Manual of Demon Refining" in addition to the eight chapters of demon refining. His understanding of the demons also deepened a lot, and then he had some speculations about the method of summoning the demons. .
"Chen Zongyu..." Xu Zhuang tapped lightly on the case, and suddenly remembered his investigation of Chen Zongyu, and suddenly thought: "How can this person spread the true name of the devil? Is it an unexpected gain? Or...has been possessed by the devil kind?"
"Perhaps it's time to meet this person." Xu Zhuang's eyes flashed, and he suddenly stood up, walked out of the house again, set up his escape light and went straight to the middle of Zongmen's continent. Not long after, a strange mountain peak appeared , then jumped into view.
This mountain peak, when viewed from the side, is no different from the Lingfeng Peak next to it. But when I look at the top of the peak, I realize that the top of the peak is a large round hole, as if the mountain is hollowed out. The depth of the abyss seems to be higher than the height of the mountain. The entire mountain is actually It's an empty shell.
This is the location of the six realms of suffering where Taisu Zhengzong used to imprison sinners, traitors, and demons, the Bitter Realm Mountain.
