"Shao Lizi has done too many evil deeds, causing the Jiuyan Sect to be secretive. From now on, we should no longer cover it up. We need to spread the reputation of our sect as soon as possible."
"These spiritual stones are used to fund the establishment of the religion. They are arranged by Vice Leader Li and assisted by King Jinbo." Xue Tong handed over more than 100 million spiritual stones from Shao Lizi to Li Wanlong.
"You all will retain your original positions. Deputy Cult Leader Ao will be in charge of refining and quenching the weapons." Xue Tong said again.
Thirty percent of the peaks in the Jiuyan Mountains are covered with snow all year round. Xue Tong consulted for advice and decided to set the main mountain at 2,600 feet, which is only covered with snow in winter, and named it "Tiansha Peak".
"Build the sect's main altar at Tiansha Peak, and the Heavenly King's Dharma Protector can build a palace. He can stay at Hanxiaoling, Minggeling and other places as he pleases."
"I act according to the Taoist rules. I will not violate the rules unless it is urgent. I will not blame you for the past. However, if you commit another crime such as seeking wealth or killing someone again, you will be severely punished!"
"I heard that Deputy Cult Leader Ao wanted to kill me back then."
Xue Tong seemed to be joking, but his words were extremely harsh.
"Don't dare, don't dare, leader, forgive me!" Ao Shuo said, dripping with cold sweat.
Everyone discussed for a long time and decided on a strategy.
Xue Tong's profound cultivation and teaching methods completely swayed the eight people. Whether Ao Shuo and others were loyal or not was unpredictable for a while, but their bad intentions and crooked thoughts were probably gone.
…
Xue Tong stayed at Hanxiaoling's temporary residence for several months, and finally took care of everything including religious rules, religious flags, religious emblems, religious uniforms, and status jade plaques.
The main color of Jiuyan flag and religious emblem is chestnut brown, and the pattern of mountains is faintly visible in the pattern.
Xue Tong didn't like fancy clothes, but the leader's clothes should not be too ordinary, so he had to make a few new robes, barely worthy of his status.
The Jiuyan Sect does not accept any disciples, it starts from birth and strictly controls the number of disciples.
When Xue Tong settled in Tiansha Peak, the number of Jiuyan Cult members exceeded 500.
Soon, King Gunlu captured alive two heavenly monks who broke into the mountains to prospect for minerals.
Ge Lichuan erred on the side of caution and asked Xue Tong how to deal with it.
Xuanmen had no authority and could not gain a foothold, but the killing was too heavy and that was not what Xue Tong wanted.
"They were paraded through the streets of Gunlu Town and confiscated no spiritual objects, leaving only a self-defense weapon. Tell them to get out."
"According to the general rules of Xuanmen, those who trespass can be killed or punished. Those who stubbornly resist or do not correct immediately do not need to be spared. Those who correct their mistakes when they know they are wrong or those with lower martial arts levels will be punished." Xue Tong said.
"Yes, I understand." Ge Lichuan nodded.
…
Jiuyan is on the right track and running well.
Xue Tong's six other second-grade swords have begun to be refined into third-grade swords.
He plans to upgrade the Blood River Patrolling Dragon Sword Formation to the fourth level with four swords and the third level with eight swords.
Compared with the current pure second-grade sword formation, the power is increased several times.
Seeing that nothing happened, Xue Tong planned to go to the "Yunhao Principality".
The Principality of Yunhao is the strongest force in the northern part of Manzhou. Only when the Jiuyan Sect is recognized by the Principality can its status and territory be completely consolidated.
"How many people should the leader take with him when he goes to Yunhao?" Li Wanlong asked.
Xue Tong treated Li Wanlong well, and half of Shao Lizi's magic weapons and elixirs were given to him and Jin Yuan.
"Jin Yuan, the two-day envoy of the king, and the six-day people of the general altar, use ordinary ceremonial guards." Xue Tong has always been simple and simple, but because he was going to Yunhao to discuss things, he relaxed his standards appropriately.
"The leader goes to Yunhao, what do you plan to talk about?"
"Meet with the senior officials of the principality, we plan to hold a spiritual object trade fair in their royal city to show our good relations."
"The Yunhao Kingdom is closed and has little contact with the outside world. There is no royal family in the principality. The Yuchi family, the Lu family, and the Gan family are the ruling families, and they jointly decide on major affairs in the territory. When the leader goes to visit, it is best to bring three generous gifts and talk things over at once. Li Wanlong said.
"Why be inferior to others? Our religion doesn't have much to give." Xue Tong said.
"Hmm, but the leader must have seen the booklet created by Jin Tianwang. Many of the monks who died in the mountains over the years were Yunhao people. Will holding the trade fair with great fanfare cause additional trouble?"
"The establishment of this sect will be spread to Yun Hao sooner or later. Please wait sooner or later." Xue Tong said.
"A few monks surnamed Gan and Lu are most likely members of the Ganlu family of Yunhao Kingdom." Li Wanlong looked through a copy of the roster and said.
"At the worst possible outcome, returning the magical artifacts is worth it in the long run." Xue Tong said.
"I'm afraid there will be no end of people coming to check."
"There is no such person below the Martial Saint, as I said last time."
"Yes Yes."
…
The camel beast convoy left Lianhuo Town.
Shopkeeper Guo of the quenching shop had been standing on the roadside for a long time. He heard that the "young man" who came to quench the ware without showing off his talent actually killed the traitors in the Jiuyan Mountain area and established a powerful Xuanmen.
In order to expand the influence of Jiuyan Sect, Xue Tong deliberately walked out of the carriage, showed his true face, saw shopkeeper Guo from a distance, and waved his hand to signal.
"Master Xue is a good man. He has hidden cultivation skills and is good at teaching. Jiuyan is bound to get bigger and bigger!" Shopkeeper Guo looked excited and talked about the past with his friends.
Four chariots and eighteen riders rode through the city and towns, traveling three thousand miles a day.
Entering the territory of the principality.
Before setting off, Xue Tong had done some research for half a month and knew that this place was closest to the Gan family's power.
Xue Tong lived in the border town for a month and a half.
In an ordinary town, Jin Yuan, who is in the middle stage of martial arts, is naturally very eye-catching, not to mention the mysterious Jiuyan leader who has never shown up.
The news spread quickly.
The essence of the Yunhao Principality is that three families are united to divide their spheres of influence. The remaining ones are mostly casual cultivators or small and medium-sized Taoist sects that are attached to a certain family.
The convoy headed towards North New City.
Ten miles away from the city, the passers-by were cleared and several carriages were waiting for them.
"Your Excellency, Master Jiuyan, we are the monks of the Beixin Society, and we are waiting here." said the Beixin Society Master who is a great master of heaven and man.
Beixinhui is just the maintenance association of the Gan family in Beixin City. It is rare for a president to have such a level of cultivation.
"Okay, lead the way!" Jin Yuan said.
Xue Tong has a distinguished status and does not need to show his face.
We drove to Beixinhui and were contacted by Jin Yuan.
"Not long after the Jiuyan Sect was established, Yunhao Principality was the largest force in Manbei. Leader Xue specially visited to promote cooperation." Jin Yuan said.
"Hmm, it's a great honor for you seniors to visit me. I'll report it as soon as possible." President BNBM said humbly.
Five days later, three beast vehicles flying the principality flag drove into the Beixinhui headquarters.
Assistant to the Duke, Yonghou Hou.
Yun Haoguo did not neglect his official position.
Xue Tong appeared, and Duke Fu was a little unhappy.
In the middle stage of Fu Guogong's martial arts, Yun Hao was a first-rate master, but he didn't expect that Jin Yuan's boss, the dignified Jiuyan leader, was only an early stage martial arts master.
Even if Xue Tong hides his cultivation, it is extremely impolite and there is no honesty at all.
"This saint is mainly refining the body. Fellow Taoist, you don't need to think too much."
"Oh, it's easy to talk about. Master Xue has had a hard journey." Duke Fu Guo reluctantly accepted Xue Tong's words.
Xue Tong proposed to hold a spiritual object trade fair in the royal city.
Duke Fu thought for a moment and said, "This matter needs to be decided by the princes."
"Well, I am waiting for good news in Beixin City!"
"I have another matter. I want to inquire about the Martial Saint Yunhao named Gan Shiyi. Reliable information shows that he went to the Jiuyan Mountain Region seventy-eight years ago and has disappeared since then." Fu Guogong said.
"Prince of the Gan family?"
"Um."
"I will go back and investigate. The devil Shao Lizi has killed many people, but most of his names have not been left behind. It will take some effort to investigate." Xue Tongna was not willing to tell the truth readily.
"Then there is Master Laoxue."
Fu Guo announced his resignation and left.
…
"Master, I believe that all such things should be denied. There are as many as two hundred monks on the roster, and we cannot bear to find out even 10% of the old things." Jin Yuan said.
"Only three people are in control of the roster. It's no big deal if you and Li Wanlong keep secret. It's unreasonable to deny it all. Could it be that Shao Lizi's magical artifacts have no name tags at all? Who would believe it?" Xue Tongyan said.
"Things are difficult to handle," Jin Yuan sighed.
"Get rid of the strongest Yun Hao first, otherwise Yun Hao will connect the monks from all over the world, and that will be the real trouble." Xue Tong said.
"Yeah, the leader has a lot of foresight."
Half a month later, Marquis Yingying replied and agreed to hold a meeting. He asked again about Gan Shiyi and another man named Lu Wu Sheng.
Ying Yinghou also provides two name card styles, focusing on the characteristics of magical weapons.
Xue Tong promised to return to the sect for a detailed investigation and agreed to send someone to the royal city with the spiritual objects after three months.
Tiansha Peak.
Xue Tong summoned the heavenly kings and protectors and talked about his trip to the Yunhao Principality. "The old accounts of this sect need to be completely resolved. Return the Yunhao Principality's Martial Saint Magical Artifact name tag so that those who want to overturn the old accounts can no longer stir up trouble." , what do you think?"
Everyone decided to do it accordingly.
Jin Yuan led the team to King Yunhao's city.
In addition to Gan Lu's magic weapon name tag, Xue Tong handed the fourth-grade reverse silver spear to Jin Yuan, "Sell this treasure, otherwise the trading of spiritual objects will be too common."
…
The transaction will be uneventful.
The Niyin Gun was exchanged for 700 million spirit stones, and Yunhao Guo was quite satisfied with Ganlu's relics and their final whereabouts.
Jiuyan's worries were greatly reduced, and Xue Tong's plan to occupy the mountain and become king was basically completed.
He worked hard on Tiansha Peak for more than ten years, and the Blood River Patrolling Dragon Array was upgraded as expected.
"I need to go on a long trip and arrange for my entourage, like when I went to Yunhao last time." Xue Tong ordered.
A few days later, the convoy of the Jiuyan Sect appeared in the mountains in the southern part of Mangzhou, targeting the Yaoshan Mountain.
"The Monster Clan and Jiu Yan have formed an alliance. Xue's power has been unmatched by anyone in Mangzhou. He is not trying to become the king and hegemon. He is just trying to get top resources more easily." Xue Tong thought to himself.
The demon clan was deeply shocked when they saw that Xue Tong had returned gloriously, and the Martial Saint became his follower in the mid-term. They became more and more submissive. The Jiuyan demon clan formed an alliance in one fell swoop and surpassed the Ten Thousand Saints Sect in strength.
Xue Tongmangzhou's reputation as the first cultivator gradually spread.
It spreads wider and wider, and it is well deserved.
Jiuyan's congregation quickly expanded to 3,000, and a sub-rudder was established in Yongjin City. The king of heaven made Liu Jiao serve as an elder and preside over Yongjin rudder.
Fei Ran found the name of the church disgusting and did not want to be a guest. Wang Huaji was more reasonable and accepted Xue Tong's kindness and became a member of the church to assist Liu Jiao.
Jiuyan Sect and Yao Clan were stable, and Xue Tong rarely took care of specific affairs from then on, only showing up once in March or May.
Deep in the underground palace, he practiced hard to complete the martial arts scriptures.
