Ancient Dynasty.
Everyone arrived here in the early morning of the second day.
But when I first arrived here, I could see with the naked eye the panic in the eyes of the people, and when I heard the sound of their horses' hooves, they all hurried home and closed the door behind them.
There were also some traders who, upon seeing their arrival, simply stopped doing business and ran away without even having time to put away their pockets containing copper coins.
This actually made everyone feel the seriousness of it.
It seems that the situation here is already very unstable.
The battles between the immortal sects even affected ordinary people.
"Let's leave here after accepting the disciples handed over by the dynasty." One of the senior brothers took a look at the situation in front of him, pondered for a long time, and then said.
"Okay, the situation here may have to be left to the sect to control. We can't take on this task, and we can't take it on."
Everyone fell silent.
When two major sects compete, there will definitely be a Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Even if they are inner disciples, they would not dare to be careless in the slightest.
Back then, Chen Hong's strength had reached the foundation-building stage, but he was still buried here.
The Jinding Sect fought for their own interests in every possible way, and with the support of the major sects, it was far more powerful than Wanjiange.
Once a person starts acting bad, he can make you extremely annoyed.
It's okay to use dirty methods.
Therefore, Yun Shu felt at a certain moment that the Jinding Sect did not look like a serious fairy sect. The methods used here were completely demonic.
The rivalry between the demonic sects is done openly, while the righteous ones do it secretly. Between the two, there seems to be no need to compare whose methods are dirtier.
Everyone still prefers not to go to major cities to continue recruiting disciples.
Among the immortal sects, they should be able to understand.
The situation is very confusing, but we have to wait until we reach the capital to get a full picture.
The mood among everyone was also quite dull.
They did not expect that the situation here would be so bad.
"Let's go to the capital and have a look. If the capital is not optimistic about recruiting disciples here, it will be considered a failure."
"The situation is very serious. I have long heard that there is a rebellion here. Several of my senior brothers from the peak were even dispatched to take over the mission."
"Now it seems that it is the two major sects who are standing behind, stimulating the war again. It is these people who are suffering."
"If our sect cannot win, the people will suffer even more."
"Yes, at least the heads of the dynasties supported by my sect are still able to maintain their status. The Jinding Sect does not care about your life or death. Their own dynasties are also in a mess and are full of chaos."
But no matter what, there are five dynasties in the Jinding Sect, which is very different in terms of the origin of the disciples.
When the Wanjiang Pavilion was at its peak, it was known as the Ten Thousand Immortals who came to rule three thousand dynasties. Now that it is in decline, even three dynasties can hardly hold it anymore. How sad.
Everyone came to the capital of the dynasty.
Yun Shu even saw the two senior brothers from Lingjian Peak who were leaving Wanjiang Pavilion coming to greet them.
"Junior Brother Yun."
"Junior Brother Yun."
"Two senior brothers." Yun Shu slightly cupped his hands.
The two men gave him a high-grade seal script, but Yun Shu did not forget it.
Others also saw the senior brothers in their own peaks, and they all greeted each other.
The senior brothers from Lingjian Peak seemed to have the highest status here. The two of them greeted everyone to sit down.
The leader of the country can only sit at the bottom, and rarely can speak.
"My name is Chang Yi, and his name is Yu Zongyan. We are both disciples of Ling Jianfeng. Since Junior Brother Yun is here, let's take a seat." The two of them laughed. "Sit down, too."
"Thank you, senior brother." Everyone said with a slight bow of hands.
Yun Shu now felt the breath of the two people slightly, and then was slightly surprised.
Senior Brother Yu's strength should be at the twelfth level of Qi training.
As for Senior Brother Chang, his strength is somewhat vague.
Foundation building period!
Yun Shu never expected to meet a disciple in the foundation building stage.
But that's right, the tasks of this sect are assigned to which disciples are randomly assigned. Matters that cannot be solved by the outer disciples will be assigned by the deacon disciples.
Deacon disciples don't care whether you are extremely talented or extremely powerful, as long as you are in the sect, they will send you out.
If you don't have time, it will directly become a mandatory task, seal the jade token, and unlock it for you when you complete it.
So, it's not surprising.
Moreover, when these two men accepted the mission, Yun Shu had already handed over the letter from Jinding Sect. Maybe the sect asked these two men to guard it just to be on the safe side.
It seems that these foundation-building disciples may have long since become the true successor of a certain elder, or the direct disciple of the headmaster.
But they will also be sent out to perform tasks, which is enough to show that the sect also attaches great importance to this matter.
The two of them seemed to have glanced at Qin Lingyu, but they were not so enthusiastic about Qin Lingyu and just nodded slightly.
"You are here to recruit disciples, right? I have prepared everything for you. After you take the disciples, go back as soon as possible." Chang Yi said. "It's really not peaceful here."
A senior fellow from Tianjian Peak also nodded lightly, "Yes, you can each lead your disciples and go back. The situation here is unpredictable, and it seems that there is no peace over there in the ancient mine. There are natural disasters and man-made disasters, but we have gathered together. .”
"Senior brother, can you tell us about the ancient mine?" a disciple asked.
"What's there to say about the ancient mine? It's the place where many sect disciples buried their bones. It's rumored that there is a kind of blood ore in it, which can help with physical training and increase qi and blood. But now, the sect has only gotten one. The master has been in seclusion since then, and I don’t know what he can learn from it." Senior Brother Yu said.
Ore from an ancient mine?
Only Yun Shu looked thoughtful.
It seems that it has never appeared in the plot, but it is very likely that it is at the master's place. The master's realm can advance by leaps and bounds in the later period. Is this probably related to this?
Yun Shu would not make random guesses. After all, they had only heard about the blood ore. When it came to them, there were only rumors and legends.
This matter should have little to do with the Headmaster's retreat.
However, why does the Headmaster remain in seclusion all year round?
This is another mystery, and some things seem to have profound meaning if you think about it deeply.
"That place is very eerie. I don't know how many years ago it was formed. It seems to be older than the history of our Wanjiang Pavilion. It is recorded in the sect's classics that the nine peak masters from the nine peaks of Wanjiang Pavilion went to the ancient mine together. In the end, only three came back.”
"It was these three people who received tremendous opportunities and created the unparalleled glory of Wanjiang Pavilion at that time."
"Ah?" Everyone looked fascinated.
Where is this ancient mine? This is an extremely huge secret realm!
There must be huge opportunities inside.
Wanjiange, which was so powerful back then, had endless benefits, let alone now.
"Then why don't other powerful immortal sects come to compete for the ancient mine?" This point is puzzling.
"Yes, there is such a great opportunity inside, why don't other super immortal sects come to compete for the ancient mine?"
"Don't you all read the sect's classics? This is recorded in them. The ancient mine became the place where Wanjiange rose to prominence, and was also the source of its decline. When Wanjiange was at its peak, it aroused the covetousness of several superpowers. "
"After a shocking battle, Wanjiang Pavilion was completely destroyed. This battle shocked ten states in the world. Although some of the major superpowers were directly defeated, others stepped into the ancient mines. The final result was unknown."
"It's just that some forces declined rapidly, and some forces are still extremely powerful, even stronger than before."
"Some people say that the contents of the ancient mine have been taken away by them, and now few people come to explore it."
When Yun Shu heard this, he nodded. There was indeed a record in the plot, and it was more detailed than what they said.
This ancient mine is not simple.
It is even said that even after the heroine becomes an immortal, she will have to explore the ancient mine again when she comes back.
Nowadays, as long as the strength does not reach the realm of immortals, Yun Shu will definitely not dare to go deep.
The Jinding Sect must have realized something, including the Wuji Immortal Sect behind them, who also wanted to pick up the slack.
Even if Wanjiange is in decline, this place is still very tight.
Therefore, they tried every means to kill Wan Jiange.
This makes sense.
"It's a bit far to say that. Even the names of those super sects are not something we can know and look up to now. We dare not mention them in ancient records. What is in front of us now is the threat of Jinding Sect. .”
"Now Jindingmen is supporting the martial arts people to cause catastrophe and come straight to the imperial capital. Most of the people are coerced and they don't want to fight. But now is an era where there is no other way. It's just that their stragglers can't compare to the dynasty. The elites can only confront each other from a distance now."
"When it comes to countering the rebellion, we can't go too deep. If we are ambushed by Jindingmen and the army is destroyed, this will add insult to injury."
Many senior brothers expressed their bitterness one after another.
Finally, someone came to my house, so naturally I wanted to let them know something about the situation.
"Aren't these disciples of Jinding Sect killing ordinary people? Aren't they afraid of being punished by God?" said a senior fellow from Jiejian Peak.
"That's why they sent out spiritual objects and asked those martial arts people to fight for them." Senior Brother Yu sighed. "With the ability of a cultivator, it is too easy to disrupt a dynasty."
Monks already belong to the category of half-immortals. Killing ordinary people on a large scale will naturally bring karma from heaven.
This is what the world calls the consequences of karma.
However, if the imperial envoy is an ordinary person, he can avoid this trouble.
"What the two parties are fighting over now is the ancient mine. A death order has been issued from above. We must hold on to it. Only in this way can we legitimately take over the ancient mine." These senior brothers were also a little helpless.
Yun Shu understood the current situation.
The ancient mine has a glorious history, but in the eyes of the world, the contents inside have been dug out by several super immortal sects. In the past thousand years, there are many sects who have directly entered it to pick up leaks.
If they picked it up, they naturally didn't dare to publicize it. Those who didn't pick it up and died inside also covered up the news.
Thousands of years have passed, and most people have forgotten this ancient mine.
Only Wanjiange is still clinging to it, believing that this is an opportunity for rise and a hope to restore glory.
Now, the Wuji Immortal Sect is coveting it, but it is just a trick. However, it is undeniable that just one Wuji Immortal Sect has brought huge pressure to the current Wanjiange.
If you stick to the ancient mine now, you are justified. If you can't hold on and lose it, then even the last hope will be gone.
Yun Shu can understand the sect's thoughts, but if you lose it, just lose it. They came here for the ancient mine, and they also covet the dilapidated background of Wanjiange.
If you lose it now, you may get it back later.
Anyway, even if it were handed over to the Wuji Immortal Sect, they wouldn't be able to do anything great.
Those supreme powerful men recorded in ancient history will all perish, so what kind of trouble can the Wuji Immortal Sect cause?
But it's okay now. This may be the last backbone of Wanjiange. If it is discounted, it will really have no backbone at all.
