The Jiuji Guiyi Sect is the source of swordsmanship, and its branches are distributed in various star realms. Those who live in seclusion in the sect are the first, second, and third generation disciples of the Sword Ancestor, as well as the individual descendant disciples who created the sword lineage alone. They are all True Lords and Heavenly Lords. He is the quasi-sage of the Supreme Master, and some are outstanding disciples who come from the branches to further their studies. Those who can stay here are basically the core disciples of swordsmanship.
The number is not very large. Even if he has one peak per person, he still has not taken up all the 1,800 peaks in the sect.
A mountain, a great power, a sword.
There is the vicissitudes of life sword used by Miao Xuan during the Buzhou battlefield, the Overlord sword developed by Zhetian Sword Master, the civil servant sword that is famous all over the world, the Xiaoyao sword with the divine dragon seeing its beginning but not its end, and the development of every kind of extreme swordsmanship. They all live here.
Ling Xiaozi does not specifically teach people any swordsmanship. He only teaches one kind of Heart Sword. When the disciples realize their own swordsmanship from the Heart Sword, they become the masters of their own lineage, and the Nine Extremes are united into one sect. The source of swordsmanship in the world.
On this day, there was an additional monk on an unnamed mountain peak, but the sword cultivators who were concentrating on practicing their swords did not pay much attention.
Or maybe he didn't notice it at all. After all, there was an old Taoist with a long beard.
In the pavilion in the mountain, the seasons change. Sometimes the waterfall beside it is graceful, sometimes it rushes like thunder, sometimes it is wrapped in silver, but the two people in the pavilion are not affected at all.
The old Taoist Changxu said that he would finish the remaining half of the Taoist scriptures to her, and then he began to speak, the true meaning was eloquent, and the Taoist sounds and magic methods were revealed. Zhan Changfeng still retained a bit of caution at the beginning, but finally he sank to that point. In wise sayings.
Little do they know that times have changed in the world.
The Sun God Emperor created a world, and finally became the Emperor. It was for the Sun God Emperor that he created the first divine dynasty in more than 100,000 years, Taihao. The ten Sons of the Sun appeared in the world at the same time, and their light shone with the sun.
Shinto has become so popular that its prestige is approaching that of the Holy Land.
But Shinto is also divided into several factions. One is called Shinto of faith, one is called Shinto of luck, one is called Shinto of merit, and one is called All-Shinto.
The first three kinds of Shinto, as their names suggest, rely on focusing on one of the beliefs in luck and merit to become a god, while the latter has some influence on all of them.
The focus is different, and the way they do things is also different.
Now that the middle world is occupied by all kinds of monks, it is difficult for Shinto believers to gain faith from monks who cultivate their own minds. Therefore, the goal of Shinto believers has always been to close small circles and collect money by showing miracles. The faith of the small world.
In the small world, the most serious competition is between Shinto monks.
The divine way of luck seeks the luck of people, the luck of the earth, and the luck of the sky. Then it holds the destiny of a world in the palm of its hand and becomes the spokesperson of the world. Nowadays, most dynasties practice this way.
The most typical characteristic of this way is to seize famous ministers and generals and conquer all walks of life. This is in conflict with the various orthodox teachings preached in all walks of life.
All Shinto also exists mostly as dynasties, but they do things more gently.
The Shinto of Merit and Virtue is the most strict in terms of self-discipline. It can be as small as helping believers fulfill their wishes and help others, as large as saving the world and benefiting people for free. It is comparable to the living Bodhisattva of Buddhism. From this perspective, the Shinto of Merit and Buddhism is different from Buddhism. There must be competition.
When the Sun God Emperor founded the divine dynasty, the first thing to be impacted was not the various orthodoxy, but the Shinto itself, and the first to bear the brunt were other faiths.
The Sun Dou Realm is at the junction of the Fengyun Realm and the Cambrian Realm. With this as the center, the sun totem worship in the small world has spread like a prairie fire. Can the Shinto monks who originally occupied the highest belief in the small world sit still?
Submission or resistance?
In addition, some small circles not only have Shinto beliefs, but also Buddhist incense and Taoist temples, can they stand by and watch?
It is an express rule of the monastic world not to bring war to the small world. To seek the belief of the small world is actually to seek the hearts of the people. But if people's hearts are not easy to control, there will still be a fight. If you want to fight, naturally it will be in the middle world. beat.
However, in a divine dynasty with a divine emperor at the helm, ordinary small forces really dare not confront it.
Just like the Donglin Dynasty in the Mountain and Sea Realm, it is an all-Shinto dynasty. It can expand its territory in the middle realm, and it can spread its faith to dozens of small realms. As its faith in the small realms is squeezed out by the sun totem, After being defeated one after another, it seems that they have learned from the painful experience and want to transform into a destiny dynasty.
Therefore, it aimed its spearhead at other princes in the mountain and sea realm, and had the power to unify the mountains and seas.
It didn't take long for the realm of mountains and seas to fall into chaos. The princes recruited troops and horses to make sufficient military reserves.
At that time, seven years had passed since Xiaolijie was flooded. Mingrui, the elder of Jijiu Lu Yishan, and others led the people from Zangyunjian to settle in the mountains and seas, looking for an unclaimed land to build a city. The bitter general will gain a foothold in the homeland as a foreigner, but he will encounter the crisis of war in the mountains and seas.
In the realm of life and death in the hidden clouds and transcendence, death and departure, Yuan Heng and a group of his men followed Yu Shen to the Wu Qu Dynasty, and some masters from Junziyuan left with He Yuntian.
Wen Chen and Gouji, who were released by Wu Qu, did contribute a lot to the new city, but the old forces in the new city, such as the Council of Elders and the Marquis of Weiming, Wenlan and Qinglan, were intertwined and secretly fought for a long time just for the position of city lord. Wen Chen originally He is the honorary elder, who used to be Bai Henyigua. Seeing that the new city had stabilized, he thought that he had done his best to benevolent and left the city.
Later, he was invited back to Shang Dinghui by Lian Wei.
Now Lu Yishan is the lord of the new city, and Mingrui Gouji and the former princes each hold important positions.
The power of their city is weak, but they can't hold it back because they have many life and death realms in charge. If it develops peacefully, maybe it can develop into a big city.
However, in the eyes of the local princes, rather than saying it was a city, it was better to say that they only saw a few realms of life and death and powerful transcendent beings.
On the eve of the turmoil, Cangxi Hou Jingyaoguo took a fancy to these people and offered them generous treatment.
In this world, there is no corner that cannot be pried unless you miss the point.
The local princes reached the point, combined kindness and power, quoted scriptures, and helped analyze a wave of severe current events, telling them clearly that this small town without a foundation would be no different from a chicken or a dog before the coming turmoil. In this way, many people were taken away one after another.
The important figures in the new city used to be elders and minor princes, and each had many people under them. One of them was pried away, and others were killed. In the end, not many left, and the new city collapsed before the turmoil started.
Especially in the recent discussions, Mingrui proposed that the entire city defect to Jing Yaoguo.
Firstly, the Jingyao Kingdom was powerful and one of the few Fang Kingdoms that could directly confront the Donglin Dynasty. Secondly, the recruitment conditions were favorable enough and every monk who surrendered would be taken care of.
Most of the monks in the new city don't want to participate in the big war. They just want to find a safer place to continue practicing and exploring as usual and looking for opportunities. It's natural that Jing Yaoguo is willing to accept them.
It can be said that the whole city accepted the recruitment, and it can be said that it was welcomed by the public.
In the back garden of the Xincheng City Lord's Mansion, the cost was limited. There were only a few potted plants in the back garden, with a stone table and benches. In the faint night wind, Lu Yishan held a wine bowl and drank several bowls. He thought of Si Tian in the past. Prisoner, thinking of the Zangyun Stream and the flood, I was heartbroken and on the verge of tears.
"It's good to be safe and sound."
The former elders and former princes were arguing endlessly over who should be the city lord, but no one could fight for the other, so the position of city lord unexpectedly fell to him, a cold-eyed observer. The reason that prompted him to take over the position was just because of the wine as a sacrificial wine. He couldn't bear to see the surviving monks in Zangyun Stream helpless and homeless.
But seeing the former elders and princes being poached one by one, watching the newly built city falling apart, the pain in my heart piled up layer by layer, and it was finally time for them to die.
