"Master, what sect is the Maiden Sect?"
"The Maiden Sect is a spiritual sect that was active during the most chaotic period after the fall of Heaven. The origin of this sect's orthodoxy is quite mysterious and no one knows it yet."
"Almost all of the girls' sects are female practitioners. Most of the Taoist skills they practice are to charm men, collect yin and replenish yang, and other heretical techniques. Oh, Lao Qi, this is different from your yin and yang harmony technique, Lu Zuliu The art of harmonizing yin and yang is a Taoist method of cultivating both life and life. It will not harm the body of the Taoist couple, but will actually benefit it. The art of harvesting yin and replenishing yang in the maiden sect relies on robbing men of their essence. The magic of supplementing one's own cultivation is not the same thing."
"Such a practice sect, if it were in the era when Heaven ruled the world, would naturally not be tolerated in the world. It was only during the period after the destruction of Heaven that no one paid attention to it, so it could develop and grow."
"During that period of chaos, there were actually countless evil heretics like this. Until the Seven Immortals Alliance was established, it took hundreds of years for you to pacify most of the evil heretics."
"However, compared with those powerful evil heretics at that time, the Maiden Sect was not too conspicuous in terms of strength or evil deeds. Therefore, it was not the target of our Seven Immortals Dream at that time, and they were also very wise. After the Seven Immortals Alliance was established, they kept a low profile and rarely showed their whereabouts, but their maiden sect has continued to survive."
"It wasn't until something happened more than a thousand years ago that this evil sect was noticed again by our Alliance of Seven Immortals."
"Master, what happened more than a thousand years ago?"
"The girl sect actually wanted to interfere in the affairs of the human dynasty. The saints of their generation concealed their identity and entered the palace of the Great China Dynasty. Soon after, they became the queen of the Great China Dynasty, and later became the queen mother. After controlling the affairs of the Great China Dynasty for more than twenty years, we, the Seven Immortals Alliance, discovered the clues."
"Immortals return to immortals, and mortals return to mortals. This is the first law of heaven. What the maiden sect did is beyond what ordinary evil heretics can describe. That's why the seven immortal sects at that time joined forces to prepare to kill the maiden sect." The door was uprooted, but..."
"Master, just what?"
"It's just that the seven immortal sects at that time surrounded the last few remnants of the maiden sect, and when they were about to completely wipe out the maiden sect, Lu Zu of our Taoist sect suddenly appeared and let those few maiden sects The disciples of the sect left.”
"Why did Lu Zu do this?"
"...I don't know, my teacher. It is said that...well...it's a rumor...maybe, our ancestor Lu seemed to have had a romantic relationship with the first-generation saint of the Maiden Sect."
"..."
"..."
"And since that time a thousand years ago, the maiden sect has almost disappeared from the world, and almost no one has seen the whereabouts of the girls."
"Until today, there were traces of a girl again."
"Master, what's going on with that corpse puppet?"
"That is a rather wonderful corpse refining technique of the Maiden Sect. In addition to being famous for the magic of harvesting yin and replenishing yang, the Maiden Sect also has this special corpse refining technique."
"The zombies produced by ordinary corpse refining techniques are all without intelligence. Just like the stone puppet technique, they can only be manipulated by others."
"However, the corpse refining technique of the Maiden Sect can retain most of the corpse's memories during life, possess its own spiritual intelligence, and even continue to practice. It is extremely miraculous."
"Because girls practice the magic of harvesting yin and replenishing yang, it is extremely difficult for them to truly trust other people, so they will specially refine a corpse chief to serve as their bodyguard. Especially when they seduce men, they will often let the corpse chief guard them. Outside the door."
"Then since they have been hidden for thousands of years, why do they show up again this time?"
"I guess it's natural that he seeks revenge from us, the Seven Immortals Alliance. So in the next period of time, before you find that girl, you must be careful, especially don't be fooled by the beauty of that girl."
"Don't worry, master. I have already seen that girl. Although she is said to have outstanding appearance, I am not tempted by her."
"That's because they didn't show you the beauty of a girl at all. If a girl was just that simple, how could she have brought trouble to the world back then? Perhaps it was because of Lu Zu's kindness towards them that he showed no mercy to them, so he I’m going to show mercy to you this time, alas…”
This is a conversation between Li Zhixia, Sang Liren, Shuguan and his disciples on the way back to Shanjiguan.
The final conversation ended with Li Zhixia sighing with incomprehensible meaning.
After returning to the temple, Li Zhixia called all the disciples and explained the matter of the Girl Sect again.
However, in the end, he could only ask his disciples to act cautiously for the time being.
In a huge city like Jingcheng with a population of millions, it is almost impossible to find a few people who are deliberately hiding and who are also practitioners.
Even if the whole city's patrol army is dispatched, it cannot be done, because in this city, there are too many places where fish and dragons are mixed, and there are some dark places. Even if it is a temple, a temple, or an academy, it is difficult to really set foot in it.
So not long ago, neither Li Zhixia, Su Jie nor Master Miki said anything about how to find that girl.
Because they knew very well that if the girl hid in those places, there would be nothing they could do.
And it is almost certain that if that girl is ready to seek revenge from the Seven Immortals Alliance, she will definitely choose those places as a hiding place.
…
"Second child, seventh child, you two come with me."
After the explanation was completed and the disciples dispersed, Li Zhixia stopped Mu Yao and Shu Guan again.
Then the two men followed the master until they reached the top of the cliff.
Along the way, Li Zhixia didn't speak, and she didn't say why she asked Mu Yao and Shu Guan to follow them.
After reaching the top of the cliff, Li Zhixia took Mu Yao and Shu Guan directly into the Treasure Pavilion.
It was already late at night, and Master Qi was just an ordinary old man who had lost all his cultivation, so he was already asleep.
This is the first time Shu Guan has entered the Treasure Pavilion.
The moment he stepped into the Treasure Pavilion, he felt like he had walked into a sea of spiritual power.
Since the success of entraining Qi, Shu Guan has been able to feel the aura between heaven and earth. Those auras surround him all the time, just like air, but it feels much clearer than air.
But when he stepped into the Treasure Pavilion, he felt that the spiritual energy around his body became as rich as water. When people walked in it, they could feel the spiritual energy flowing through them like water.
The treasure building is the same as the Daozang Pavilion. It is divided into three floors. The first floor also has several rows of wooden shelves, and there are many messy things on the wooden shelves.
Clutter does not mean that things are placed in a mess, but that the categories are in a mess.
Shu Guan glanced around and saw talismans, bells, small wooden signs, rulers, seals, ropes, and some other things he didn't even know what they were on the shelf.
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
And everything exudes a faint aura. Maybe if you take out one item alone, the aura it emits is not exaggerated, but when so many weak auras gather together, this place becomes a sea of aura.
Li Zhixia walked up the stairs to the second floor.
Mu Yao, Shuguan and the others followed behind them. When they passed the wooden frame beside the stairs, they saw that the wooden frame was filled with stacks of talisman papers.
Shu Guan is now completely familiar with talisman paper. It can even be said that his first intimate contact with spiritual practice started with talisman paper.
That time, he ran all the way from Jingcheng to Shennongjia with the Thousand Miles Divine Walking Talisman, which made him feel the magic of Taoism for the first time.
However, the talisman papers Shu Guan had seen before were basically all drawn by the fifth senior brother. Compared with the talisman papers painted by the fifth senior brother and the talisman papers on the wooden stand at this time, Shu Guan could clearly feel the difference.
If you want to describe this difference, it is like the difference between an ordinary book and a hardcover version, or the difference between a regular version and a plus version of a mobile phone.
On the talismans on the wooden shelf, each talisman exudes a faint light, and the spiritual energy flows slowly between the strokes as if visible to the naked eye. In particular, these talisman papers each exude a different atmosphere, either hot or hot. Cold, sharp, or ethereal.
Seeing Shu Guan looking at the talismans in a trance, Mu Yao explained softly:
"These talisman papers are all left by the powerful men from the previous generations in Guanzhong. They are much more powerful than ordinary talisman papers. However, we will not use them until necessary. After all, if you use one, you will lose one."
While talking, the two went up to the second floor.
On the second floor, there is no wooden frame, only these ten tables are placed, and there is a box on each table, which may be long and flat, or small, and of different shapes and sizes.
But without exception, those boxes have extremely rich spiritual energy overflowing.
Mu Yao seemed to want to introduce him to Shu Guan, but at this time Li Zhixia had already climbed to the third floor, and the two had to quickly catch up.
The third floor of the Treasure Pavilion, like the Daozang Pavilion, is a row of rooms, but the number is much smaller, only four.
At this time, Li Zhixia was standing in front of the second room near the stairs.
I saw that the iron door of this room was densely covered with talismans, and the spiritual energy emanating from each talisman was stronger than the talisman papers on the wooden shelves on the first floor.
Moreover, the spiritual energy flowing between these talismans is integrated, just like a small formation.
At this moment, Shu Guan suddenly felt like he was standing at the door of a bank vault.
Something so carefully placed behind the door must be extremely important!
By the way, there are four rooms on the third floor, which should contain the four treasures of the temple!
Shu Guan thought so, and then he saw Master Li Zhixia kneading a few Taoist formulas with both hands and pointing towards the iron gate.
The iron door slowly opened.
Li Zhixia stepped in.
Shu Guan was about to follow him in, when Mu Yao said to him:
"Junior Brother Shu, use your spiritual energy to protect your body. It's very cold inside."
Shu Guan was slightly startled, but he now had unconditional trust in Mu Yao, so he immediately activated his spiritual power and stepped into the room.
The moment he stepped through the door, Shu Guan instinctively shrank his neck.
It's really cold.
In fact, today is late autumn, and the chill at night is quite deep, but the feeling when walking from the outside into the door is like a hot summer entering a cold winter.
Then Shu Guan looked up, and the first thing he saw was Han Biao.
Han Biao lay quietly on a stone bed, as if sleeping.
