"Let's go there for a walk." Looking at the lush valley in the distance, Mo Juren suddenly said.
The dramatic changes in the situation during this period were so sudden that Han Yunzhi was unable to react for a while. I don't know if it was her, but both Wang and Ping also looked sad.
Therefore, she also had too many things in her heart that she wanted to talk to the other party. When she heard the other party's proposal, she immediately felt happy and let out a soft hum.
It's a good time, and the valley is full of unknown wild flowers, fragrant and colorful, and the scenery is so charming.
Walking among them, Han Yunzhi felt that his body and mind, which had been tense during this period, suddenly became much more relaxed.
Turning his eyes to his side, he smiled sweetly and said, "Fortunately, Brother Mo came back in time, otherwise, just the few of us would really have been driven out by the other side."
"If it were me, seeing your strength, I would also want to take advantage of the opportunity to monopolize it." Mo Juren naturally saw the previous negotiations and disputes between the two parties, but he was not surprised.
Although the Hehuan Sect has long known the true situation of the Xinzhou Spiritual Mine, as long as they can seize the opportunity to occupy it, it will become a fait accompli. So no matter how many reasons the Yuling Sect has, if they want to regain their share, they can't do it without paying a certain price. And even if you pay the price, you can only get back 30% of what originally belonged to you, but you have no extravagant hope for the remaining 70%.
Come to think of it, when Mr. Han asked about his strength and asked him to garrison the spiritual mine here, the purpose was not just to rest and recuperate himself, but guarding the spiritual mine here was also one of the reasons.
"Do you know everything about the sect?" Mo Juren suddenly stopped and looked at the beautiful scenery over the mountains and fields, and then asked.
"After the front line was lost, my uncle immediately sent a secret message and told me some secrets..." Han Yunzhi nodded, and then began to describe everything that happened during this period.
Except for the difference in time, everything else was pretty much what Mo Juren expected. After the Spirit Beast Mountain suddenly defected on the front line, the six factions were completely defeated. After that, although they tried their best to hold on, it only lasted two days.
The six demon sects naturally knew what the other party was thinking, so at the beginning of the decisive battle, they immediately sent another elite force to bypass the front line and attack the six sects over a long distance, causing a lot of trouble for the six sects to escape. .
Of course, the Six Factions are not a fuel-efficient lamp. After giving up a lot of cannon fodder, they finally managed to escape Yue with the real core of the sect and a large amount of resources.
The worst thing was the ordinary disciples who stayed behind. There were tens of thousands of the six sects in total, and they were all abandoned as bait. Not to mention those who died in battle, even if they were lucky enough to survive and fell into the hands of the devil, the outcome would not be much better.
"By the way, my uncle had a secret letter for Brother Mo. You weren't there at the time, so I opened it myself because I was worried that something was urgent." Although he had to obey the authority in a hurry, Han Yunzhi still said with some self-blame.
"Green Gourd Sword Fairy"
"But you want me to keep an eye on the spiritual mine here?" Naturally, Mo Juren would not blame the other party for this, so he asked instead.
"Brother Mo has guessed it!" Han Yunzhi's crystal eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. However, thinking of the other party's special explanation when he left before, he might have expected everything. It’s not surprising what you can guess.
However, Brother Mo is really mysterious! As far as she knew, the defection in Spirit Beast Mountain was top secret, and it was impossible for the higher-ups to reveal anything about it. Even his uncle only sent him the message after the overall situation on the front line had been decided.
But, how did the other party know this, and nearly two months in advance?
"There are some things that you know and I know, so don't disclose them to others." Mo Juren nodded slightly, but suddenly reminded him.
"Brother Mo, don't worry, I won't tell anyone." Han Yunzhi understood what the other party was referring to and nodded in agreement. After a pause, he continued,
"My uncle said in the secret letter that Brother Mo will lead us to guard here for about a month. By then, other people from the sect will come to take over."
As he said that, with a flash of light in his hand, he handed over a letter directly.
The content of the letter was exactly what Han Yunzhi said. However, in addition to guarding the spiritual mine for a month, it also specifically mentioned that he needed to return to the sect immediately after someone took over.
Seeing this, Mo Juren couldn't help but think deeply.
Although the six factions escaped, they have been rooted in Yue for thousands of years, and some potential forces are still quite large. It is not that easy to take over smoothly. In particular, the countless cultivating families are a huge force that even the Six Sects dare not ignore easily and need to be treated with caution.
These families are divided into three attitudes. One is to act according to the wind. The moment the six factions were defeated, they immediately chose to defect and become a member of the devil's path. The other type is too close to the Six Factions. In order to avoid being asked to settle the score, they have already withdrawn from the country of Yue with the Six Factions. The last type of family is not deeply involved with the six sects, but does not agree with the concept of magic. Therefore, it is still in the wait-and-see stage, ready to see the situation before making a decision.
Of course, under the general trend, there is no luck. No matter how these forces choose, they cannot change the final outcome.
About a month should be the time it takes for the six sects to temporarily sort out these subsequent troubles. As for complete digestion, it may take longer.
In addition, there is an equally important matter that needs to be resolved, which is the distribution of post-war benefits.
Yue is a relatively wealthy country, and the interests involved are too complicated. It is not easy to completely distinguish between the six sects, and a lot of wrangling is naturally necessary.
Among the six sects, two sects are the most special, namely Hehuan Sect and Yuling Sect. The former naturally wanted to take over everything that originally belonged to the Hidden Moon Sect, and the latter even took over the entire Spirit Beast Mountain.
These are the two best forces among the seven sects. With their help, the two sects can be regarded as the biggest beneficiaries of this war.
Especially the Yuling Sect, because the high-level leaders of Spirit Beast Mountain are present, and the addition of Yuanying-stage ancestors and a large number of pill-forming monks has directly increased its overall strength by a large margin.
This is no small matter, it means that the strength of the Yuling Sect has undergone a qualitative change, and its right to speak in the demonic path will be further enhanced in the future. In this way, how the two factions complete the merger will definitely be the top priority next.
Mr. Han specifically mentioned in the letter that he and others should return to the sect immediately at that time, which is probably related to this matter.
However, it doesn't matter. No matter how the sect changes, Mr. Youhan will be there to support it, and his own interests will not be affected.
Putting away these chaotic thoughts, Mo Juren directly put the letter into his storage bag.
After the business was done, the two stopped discussing these mind-numbing matters and started chatting instead.
Perhaps because there were not many opportunities to be alone with his sweetheart, Han Yunzhi was extremely happy. While telling some trivial things that had happened recently, he would squat down from time to time and pick his favorite wild flowers.
Mo Juren didn't say anything, he just followed the other person and became a quiet listener. This relaxed atmosphere made him feel addicted without realizing it.
…
In the following time, Mo Juren stayed temporarily in the spirit mine.
With his presence, everyone in the Hehuan Sect didn't have any trouble. On the contrary, the silver-haired old man and his wife often came to visit, and they seemed to want to make further acquaintances.
In this regard, Mo Juren naturally accepted all comers and entertained him warmly every time, which made the other party overjoyed. Not only that, the other party also took the opportunity to buy a lot of intermediate talismans from him, all of which were rare and high-quality products on the market. This made the two of them overjoyed, and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, with this fellow Taoist Mo. Building a good relationship is definitely a sure way to make money without losing money.
Except for occasional communication with the other party, Mo Juren spent the rest of the time practicing alone in the room.
In fact, even though he is only at the peak of the middle stage of foundation establishment, the total amount of mana in his body is no less than that of a monk in the late stage of foundation establishment. As for combat power, he has a large number of spiritual talismans and many top-level magic weapons. With the talisman, he is almost invincible under the spell.
This does not include his tyrannical physical body. With all five elements of bloodline raised to the peak of level 4, his physical body is as powerful as some level 5 monsters with strong physical strength. Therefore, facing the monks in the early stage of forming pills, it is not without a fight. force.
Of course, the monks in the pill formation stage have too many methods. Whether it is the sharpness of the magic weapon or the richness of the magic power, they are not comparable to him. Merely relying on the tyrannical body is far from enough. However, even if he couldn't defeat him, it would not be easy for the other party to take his life.
Time flies, and half a month passes in the blink of an eye.
On this day, dozens of rays of light suddenly flew from the horizon and finally stayed in the mid-air above the spiritual mine.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a stern face and a pair of piercing tiger eyes. There was a faint cold light flashing between the opening and closing of the eyes. He was wearing a gray Taoist robe, with four or five spirit beast bags hanging bulging around his waist.
The middle-aged man glanced at the large formation below, and without hesitation, a golden light flashed in his hand, but it was a communication talisman. He whispered for a while, and then threw it down without hesitation.
As the spiritual talisman sank into the formation, a moment later, the light shield formed by the formation began to surge rapidly, a passage several feet wide slowly emerged, and a figure flew out directly.
"But Fellow Daoist Mo?" The moment he saw the visitor, something strange flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, and he took the initiative to greet him.
"It's Mo." Mo Juren nodded, but he was a little surprised. The person who came was not a disciple from Spirit Beast Mountain, but a monk from Yuling Sect.
"I, Gu Yushan, have heard of Fellow Taoist Mo for a long time. I am honored to meet him today." The middle-aged man cupped his hands and said with a smile on his face.
"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Gu." Mo Juren smiled.
"I wonder if you came here this time with orders from the sect?"
"That's it." When he got down to business, Gu Yushan's expression suddenly became solemn, but there was a flash of light in his hand, revealing a white jade slip.
"Fellow Taoist must have known about the situation in Lingbeast Mountain for a long time, and Gu will not say anything more. This jade slip was brought to me by Lingfu Ge Han Lao. After reading it, fellow Taoist, I will understand everything."
While speaking, the jade slip slowly flew up and flew straight to the front. Mo Juren didn't hesitate, and after taking it, he immediately used his spiritual consciousness to examine it.
After reading the contents, Mo Juren couldn't help but a flash of surprise in his eyes, and he said in surprise: "The Hehuan Sect actually agreed to give up 10% of the share?"
"This is the result of discussions between the two parties. As for the specific inside story, we are not able to know it. Furthermore, now that the strength of Yuling Sect has greatly increased, it is logical to obtain matching resources. Hehuan Sect It’s not a big deal to agree to give up 10% of the share. Of course, Fellow Daoist Mo is also responsible for this. If you hadn’t occupied the spiritual mine here in advance, it would not have been so easy to get this 10% share.” Gu Yushan explained a few words, but his tone was filled with confidence that could not be concealed.
"Fellow Taoist, what you said is true." Mo Juren smiled, but did not deny anything. Since it is his credit, he should naturally take it. Being modest about this kind of thing is purely a brain problem.
After a pause, he continued,
"All the disciples stationed in the Hehuan Sect are in the spirit mine, and all subsequent negotiations will be left to Fellow Daoist Gu. Mo has received an order from Mr. Han and must rush back to the sect immediately."
"Leave everything to Mr. Gu, fellow Taoist Mo, just feel free to go on your own."
The arrival of the Yuling Sect monks from Gu Yushan has naturally been known to the disciples of the Hehuan Sect for a long time.
After a while, the silver-haired old man and his wife also rushed over in time. Coincidentally, the other party actually knew Gu Yushan, which saved him the trouble of introduction.
After the two parties met, they naturally exchanged pleasantries. As for the subsequent specific negotiations about the spirit mine, Mo Juren no longer needs to worry about it.
After saying goodbye to a few people, he went straight back to his room. At the same time, Han Yunzhi, Wang Ping and Bai Xuan also rushed over.
"Is everything packed?"
"After so many days, I have long since become a little tired of staying there. We two have nothing to pack, so we have brought all the important things with us." Wang Ping replied with a smile.
"Then let's go..."
A moment later, outside the spiritual mine, a golden light rose from the ground and broke through the sky toward the end of the sky.
Somewhere in the spiritual mine, Gu Yushan reappeared at some unknown time. Looking at the golden figure that was gradually disappearing, the strange color in his eyes reappeared.
"Mo Juren, a genius of Talismans rarely seen in a thousand years, a genius..."
…
Xiao Jin was extremely fast and had already rushed back to Lanzhou in less than two days.
Wang Ping and Han Yunzhi both said goodbye. They needed to return to their families to report first. Mo Juren naturally had no objection. After parting with the others, he flew straight towards the cave.
He still has a large amount of resources with him, but not all of them have to be released at once. Therefore, it is most suitable to keep it in your own cave, and just ask Xin Ruyin to come and collect it when needed.
More than three months have passed, and the cave is still the same as before. When Mo Juren entered the hall, he happened to see two familiar figures.
"Master is back..."
"Master..."
Seeing his figure, the two little girls Lin Ying'er and Xiao Cui'er suddenly expressed surprise and took the initiative to salute and greet him.
"Is there anything going on at home during this time?"
"It's nothing, but the sect has sent people here to deliver messages several times, talking about some recent changes in the sect." Xiao Cuier was the first to speak, and even stepped forward to hold his arm, whispering asked,
"Master, we have merged with Yuling Sect, a major demon sect. Will there be any danger?"
"What danger could there be?" Seeing the other party's cautious look, Mo Juren couldn't help but laugh a little and asked.
"That's the magic way. I heard that many monks are vicious, extremely bloodthirsty and cruel. In order to improve their strength, they regard human life as nothing..."
As she spoke, Xiao Cuier became more frightened, and her hands holding each other's arms tightened involuntarily. Lin Ying'er on the side was no exception. She also took a few steps forward and hugged her other arm.
"Who did you hear these words from?" Mo Juren asked again.
"I guessed it myself. Moreover, when I was a child in Yuejing City, the other casual cultivators also said the same thing." Xiao Cuier replied directly, turned to look at Lin Ying'er, and said,
"Second Senior Sister, tell me, is it like this?"
"Ah!" Lin Ying'er was startled for a moment, then she realized what she was doing, and nodded in haste to answer, "There are also many demonic sects in the Yuanwu Kingdom, and they seem to be like this. However, I only heard others mention it occasionally, and I don't have one myself. Saw it."
Seeing the two people answering like this, Mo Juren couldn't help but feel something in his heart. When he came back this time, he would bring the two of them into the sect. If they went in with prejudice against the Yuling Sect, there would be problems sooner or later.
He took out the arms tightly held by the two people, then walked to the main seat far away and sat down, and then said, "What you said is right or wrong, it is a bit one-sided."
He raised his arm, motioned the two of them to move aside, and continued,
"The so-called righteous path and the devil's path actually do not refer to good and evil, but to different pure concepts of cultivation. Since we entered the path of immortality, what we pursue throughout our lives is nothing more than the word immortality. This is the ultimate goal. The purpose, as well as the process, all depends on personal choice.
The concept of righteousness tends to be gentle, and so does the practice of exercises. It emphasizes step-by-step and success. The process will be slower, but it will also avoid many disadvantages.
The devil's path is on the contrary. It strives to make rapid progress, and its cultivation methods are even more extreme. In order to pursue faster speed and stronger power, it will often use any means or even opportunism. In this way, it may seem that progress is rapid, but various problems may arise due to an unstable foundation.
As for right and evil, it is not a matter of ideas, but a matter of the monks' personal character. The righteous monks seem to be upright, but there are many people who do some sneaky and villainous things under the guise of exterminating demons and protecting the way. Although the demonic monks are a little extreme, they also have true temperament and are much more magnanimous.
Of course, due to the shortcomings of their skills, many demonic monks will change their nature and become bloodthirsty and cruel, treating human life as nothing. This is also the case. "
Having said this, Mo Juren paused and continued,
"The above are all theoretical explanations, but in reality they are much more complicated and cannot be generalized. Immortal cultivators will always go against the will of heaven and survive the fittest. Whether it is the righteous path or the devil's path, once it involves their own path, then There is no such thing as good or evil. It is normal for the weak to prey on the strong and to kill for treasure.
You must remember when you walk out in the future that no matter who you meet or anything, no matter whether he is a righteous or evil person, you must always keep a vigilant heart, because even if the other person is upright and frank, For the sake of profit, he will not hesitate to turn his face and be ruthless. "
"Don't worry, Master, we will remember it." Upon hearing Master's warning, the two women's faces tightened and they nodded seriously.
Seeing this, Mo Juren couldn't help but smile, and then changed the topic:
"As for the Yuling Sect, although it is a major sect of the Demonic Way, it is the most special existence among the six sects of the Demonic Way. Like Spirit Beast Mountain, it mainly focuses on controlling beasts, which is still very different from the traditional Demonic Way. So, you don’t have to worry too much, just practice with peace of mind as before. With Master and me here, at least within the sect, no one dares to bully you."
