Heming Mountain, the top of the mountain.
The Wutong Cave has been planted, and formations have been deployed around it. This place is unbreakable.
On the other side, grassroots Taoist organizations took over the entire county.
After the great unification, the second emperor was worse than many people imagined. Years of hard labor made the people miserable, and the economic downturn also made corruption more serious.
Under the money offensive, Lu Jing became the county magistrate, controlling a population of 30,000.
In the cave, Xu Xuan sat cross-legged, refining the Yuan-Building Pill and the Philosopher's Stone.
Not far away, the little man in the bottle breathed out spiritual energy.
It is still in the killing stage, and when it reaches a certain level, it can be called a ghost pawn.
The ghost soldiers will continue to become stronger, and the ghost soldiers, ghost generals, etc. will also become larger and larger.
Xu Xuan no longer refines corpses now. Zombies need to be cultivated with good spiritual points, otherwise it will be useless. It can be used to deal with ordinary soldiers. If it is used to deal with these warriors, it will not be enough. Unless you are willing to spend a lot of money to cultivate zombies, otherwise No value for money.
Moreover, zombies still take up space. Xu Xuan only has three storage bags in total, which is not enough for himself.
After thinking about it, the little man in the bottle is more cost-effective, at least for this world.
At this time, Xu Xuan looked at the world in the mirror.
Mirror world.
At this time, someone picked up the mirror. It was a handsome young man with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes.
"What is this?" Xie Lang suddenly saw a shining mirror beside the road. He looked around and saw no one, so he quickly picked up the mirror.
There was no rush to open it along the way, but to get home.
The Xie family is a cultivating family in Ding County. There is a foundation-building ancestor and a total of eight Qi practitioners. They firmly control this county with a population of more than 600,000, and use this land as their output to support the entire family's cultivation.
Xie Lang is the concubine of the sixth family member. Compared with his direct descendants, his status is not too low.
A few days ago, the family had a bone test, and sixteen-year-old Xie Lang was found to have low-grade qualifications. He is a type with some qualifications, but cannot be cultivated.
This kind of qualification can generally only give you a little skill and does not allow you to enjoy resources.
Xie Lang has been depressed these days because of this matter. Today, when he encountered such a magical thing, his mood suddenly improved.
Back indoors, the door is closed.
Putting the mirror on the table, Xie Lang walked around the mirror a few times and found nothing special.
Suddenly, he thought of something, found a dagger and cut his thumb open, and drops of blood dripped on the mirror.
At this time, the mirror shines brightly.
"Heaven and earth will eventually end, and the mulberry fields will change. It is neither magic nor illusion. I am the fairy in the mirror!"
"Host, the Immortal in the Mirror is at your service."
"Who are you?" Xie Lang asked in surprise.
"Back to the host, I am the Illuminating Bronze Appraisal Spirit."
"Are you sane?" Xie Lang looked at the mirror, a hint of vigilance flashing in his eyes.
"The magic weapon has a god. Yes, I have a sane mind."
Xie Lang asked a lot of questions and found that the mirror sometimes couldn't answer the questions and seemed a little stiff, so he felt relieved.
"what can you do?"
"The divine mirror is a thing that guides the heavens. As long as you get the corresponding materials, you can exchange them for the corresponding skills and elixirs."
Lines of text flashed across the mirror.
There are the Golden Light Mantra, the Qing Jing Jue, the Nine Heavens Inner Canon, the alchemy method, the sword pill refining method, the foundation building pill refining method, and the heavenly snake breathing method.
There are those who have practiced Xu Xuan, and there are those who have not.
The variety of spells is dizzying.
The corresponding exchange price is also written above.
"I want to exchange two Peiyuan Pills and two pounds of cinnabar!"
Xie Lang rummaged through the boxes and found the two spiritual crystals he had accumulated.
Wow!
The light flashed away, and the corresponding elixirs and materials appeared on the table.
The road to rise against the heavens begins.
Xie Lang's face was as sharp as a knife, and there was a hint of evil smile.
"This man looks like he's about to throw himself into the street." Xu Xuan thought to himself across the mirror.
It's not that the lower the status, the more determined the will. If the family is not a particularly bad family, the success rate of the upper-level disciples will be higher than that of the lower status.
Maybe the truth that the low-level casual cultivators understand only after a lifetime of hard work is not as good as the light words of the elders.
It is better to preach thousands of books falsely than to truly preach one sentence.
"Whatever, if this guy takes Huang Ting Neijing Wan, he still has to obey my orders."
For such people, Xu Xuan did not give Huang Ting Neijingwan directly. The desire for such people to become stronger was not strong enough.
He could only be induced to take Huang Ting Neijing Pills through deception.
Put away the mirror and return to reality.
Xu Xuan began to practice.
The two brothers Fengyun provided the Nine Heavens Inner Canon, the foundation-building elixir method, and a sword pill refining method.
Xu Xuan was not in a hurry, and planned to wait for the trade mechanism to be opened up, and then let Xie Lang study it.
On the other side, the mortal world.
The expansion of Taoism attracted the attention of others.
Taoism has taken root at the grassroots level, and Taoist priests have provided cheap land for rent, free medical treatment, and opened free homes for passers-by to live in.
The emperor's excessive levies and extortion for many years have resulted in the people being in dire straits and leading to the rise of heroes from all over the country. At present, it seems that these are just minor problems that cannot affect the overall situation.
Those who are interested know that it may be the prelude to troubled times.
All dynasties and dynasties always started with a refugee uprising.
Taibai Mountain.
There is a palace on the mountain, and in the square, more than thirty disciples are beating their muscles.
There are four big characters written on the archway of Shanmen: Taibai Sword Sect.
In the Sword Immortal Hall, an old man with white eyebrows whose eyebrows are one foot long is sitting on the main seat.
On the left is a middle-aged couple, and on the right are three men in black hunting attire. These are the top leaders of the Taibai Sword Sect.
This old man with white beard and hair is naturally the leader of Taibai Sword Sect. Bai Xuanming, also known as Taiyi Sword, is also a famous innate master in the northwest.
"Reporting to the sect master, I have found the clue you asked me to find." The deacon in black on the right stood up and reported.
"Tell me."
"Junior Brother Qi and Junior Sister Dong disappeared a hundred miles away from Feng County. They were looking for the remnants of the Demon Sect. I speculate that it may be related to the remnants of the Demon Sect. There is a high probability..." Thinking of this, the man in black glanced at the couple. "Uncle Dong may have to be prepared for something unexpected to happen to the two of them."
"snort!!"
Uncle Dong slapped the table, and the powerful internal force smashed the corner of the table into powder.
"No matter who kills my daughter, I will hunt him to the end of the world!!!"
"I do have a clue..." the man said again.
"What clue?"
"There is a Taoist sect in Feng County. The disciples call themselves Taoists. There is no rent or rice tax, and there is no way to combine men and women. They are cracking down on the powerful and opening warehouses to release grain. There is currently a lot of momentum."
"Five buckets of rice?" The sect owner's pupils shrank, and he remembered the overwhelming momentum back then.
"They call themselves Taoism and say it has nothing to do with the five buckets of rice."
"The Demon Cult is still the Demon Cult under a different name. Master, please allow us to come to the door and seek justice for Qi'er Xuan'er!"
"Don't rush in, if you kill someone by mistake..."
"Even if it is not the Five Pecks of Rice Dao, this method of deceiving people is the same as that of the Demon Sect, so killing him is not considered a wrongful killing."
Under the encouragement of the couple, Bai Xuanming was a little moved. He asked the man, "Who is the leader of the Taoist sect?"
"This person's name is Xu Xuan, and he calls himself the True Lord of the Three Realms Dharma..."
"It turns out he is a pretender. Give me an order. All disciples should prepare weapons, put aside all their affairs, and follow me to Feng County to find out what's going on."
Since ancient times, there has been no coexistence between good and evil. Even if there is no reason to kill a demon sect disciple, the court and the righteous will not cause trouble for them, but will be rewarded for it.
"Yes!!"
For a time, the six masters of the Taibai Sect and fifty-two retired disciples gathered together and prepared to go to Feng County.
Fufeng, there is a temple with strong incense in the county.
There was an endless stream of people coming to worship the gods, including dignitaries, traffickers, and even barbarians with tall noses and deep eyes.
The name of the temple is very strange and looks rather gloomy. It is called Five Ghost Temple.
The main hall enshrines five ghostly statues.
"The sky will be clear and the earth will be peaceful, you will live forever, the five ghosts will bring you wealth, your home will be prosperous, and the five ghosts will bring you good luck..." The temple blessing chanted a mantra, and believers scrambled for expensive incense.
Behind the Five Ghost Temple, an old man with a hooked nose and a sinister expression listened to his subordinates' report.
"Taoists, Taoist priests... must be our colleagues in the Five Pecks of Rice Dao. Their creativity is quite good. Haha, as a high priest, I think they must lack guidance."
That's right, this old man is the man from Five Pecks of Rice. The so-called Five Ghost Temple is just a trick to defraud people of their money.
They also have the inheritance of the Five Ghosts, and because they cannot cultivate it, their own people regard this as a trick.
It was obvious that the old man wanted to pick peaches.
