The moment he saw Ancestor Chi Ling, Mo Juren couldn't help but be filled with surprise.
The image of this ancestor is indeed a bit different. His long red hair is scattered casually. It seems that he has not taken care of it for a long time and is a bit messy. He was even wearing a large robe made of an unknown material. It was dusty as if there was a layer of dirt hanging on it, giving people an extremely old feeling.
Not only that, but lying on its shoulder was a small clam the size of a fist, with a body as white as jade, and its vocal sacs made low sounds one by one.
Mo Juren has heard of this little white jade clam. Its real name is Cloud-Tunning Clam. Although it may look small, it is a genuine level six monster with extraordinary strength. It is the most beloved treasure of ancestor Chi Ling.
However, the other party's image and appearance really didn't look like a Nascent Soul ancestor. For those who didn't know, they thought he was an old beggar begging for food.
Probably the only difference between him and the beggar is that his exposed skin is as delicate as a baby's.
The messy thoughts in his mind disappeared in a flash. Mo Juren didn't think about it anymore and turned to look around. His arrival naturally attracted everyone's attention. They were all acquaintances, so there was no need to be polite. Even the other elders knew each other even though they had little interaction with him.
He nodded slightly with everyone, then found an open space and sat down cross-legged.
There was no way, there was no futon or anything like that here, everyone was sitting on the floor, so he could only 'do as the Romans do'.
After sitting for a while, Mo Juren felt that something was wrong. Several elders from the Spiritual Beast Mountain lineage who were still in the sect had arrived, so why was there still no movement? Could it be that you are still waiting for someone?
Sure enough, about a moment later, a burst of messy footsteps sounded, and then five or six figures walked in one after another.
It's them?
Mo Juren saw Yang Wanshan's figure at a glance, and did not pay too much attention. His eyes were mainly focused on the red-robed old man at the head. From the invisible power radiating from him, he could guess that it must be Xuan Wanshan. People are on fire.
What surprised him was that the other party seemed to notice his gaze and actually smiled and nodded, showing an extremely kind expression.
The two parties did not know each other before, and the other party responded like this, obviously knowing his situation.
This is interesting. I don’t know what his attitude is. Will he support Yang Wanshan and his party?
Suddenly, as if he suddenly noticed something, his eyes turned and happened to meet another gaze. It was a middle-aged man wearing a gray robe, with an ordinary appearance and no features.
However, although the gaze he cast seemed calm, it revealed a hint of vague fear, which passed quickly but was still captured by Mo Juren.
who is it? Huo Changgeng?
Mo Juren can't be sure yet, but if he doesn't do bad things and is not afraid of ghosts, other than Yang Wanshan, only the other party will be wary of him.
The monks from the main sect arrived at the same time, and Patriarch Chiling finally opened his eyes, with a smile on his face and said:
"Fellow Taoist is finally here."
"I have been delayed for a while due to some personal matters, and I would like to ask fellow Taoist Chi Ling Haihan." Master Xuanhuo said with a smile.
"It's just a small matter. The others have just arrived. Please sit down."
"Excuse me." As he spoke, Master Xuanhuo and his party found a place to sit down. They happened to be opposite the Spirit Beast Mountain series, and there was a somewhat distinct feeling.
Mo Juren couldn't help but feel a little emotional. No matter how big or small the forces are, there will eventually be factions, and there will never be peace.
All the participants had arrived, and Patriarch Chiling immediately stated the purpose of today without any further hesitation.
"Perhaps everyone is wondering why all the high-level officials suddenly came to the gathering. In fact, the reason is very simple. Just a few days ago, a piece of news came. More than a dozen countries in the northern region have reached an agreement and established another A new alliance, the Tiandao Alliance, to fight against the invasion of good and evil including us."
"Tiandao Alliance!" After hearing this, the cave immediately became lively and people were talking non-stop. This news is so exciting, it is simply a major event that overturns the entire power structure in Tiannan.
You must know that the countries in the northern region are not simple. There are two large countries, and there are many powerful sects among them, such as Luanming Sect. They seem to be different.
The remaining small and medium-sized countries are also not weak in strength, and the combined sects they possess may be stronger than either of the two paths of good and evil.
"When the Tiandao Alliance is established, will it actively expand?" Someone immediately raised a question.
"Perhaps just for self-protection, most of the countries in the northern region are neutral countries, and in the past they rarely participated in the struggle for interests between good and evil..."
"Maybe, after all, the interests are very attractive. The Tiandao Alliance has just been established as a party, but it is not weaker than the huge forces of good and evil. It is human nature to want more."
"If we really want to expand, the impact will be huge and the current situation will become very complicated. At least the frontline arrangements of the good and the evil will have to be greatly changed."
"..."
Everyone was talking about it, including members of the main sect, and they all put forward various speculations. Unfortunately, this is just a guess. No one can be sure of what will happen in the end.
"Ancestor summoned us urgently, but what are the above plans to do in response?" Wang Chengfeng asked proactively.
"That's right, but I won't make big changes right away." Ancestor Chi Ling nodded and continued,
"The establishment of the Tiandao Alliance will indeed have a drastic impact on the entire pattern of Tiannan. Whether it is holding on tightly or expanding outward, it has completely disrupted the original plans of the good and the evil.
According to the original idea, in addition to the Nine-Nation Alliance in the south, the entire central and northern parts will be our expansion targets. Today, this goal is no longer possible. In fact, if the Tiandao Alliance expands southward, the countries it has already occupied may be lost.
Fortunately, the Tiandao Alliance has just been established and everything is still unclear. No one can predict what the next move will be. Therefore, the senior leaders of the six sects discussed among themselves that a group of monks in the alchemy stage will be urgently transferred from each sect to guard in several countries bordering the Tiandao Alliance in order to deal with possible changes. "
Having said this, he glanced at everyone and then said,
"We need to send two people here to explain in advance that this matter can be big or small. Everything depends on the next move of the Tiandao Alliance. Therefore, people in the past must be mentally prepared. If the situation develops for the worse, what will happen? There is great danger.
Think about it for yourselves. Is anyone willing to take the initiative? This task cannot be refused. If not, the two of us will have no choice but to forcefully assign it. "
Among the people present, only Mo Juren knew how the situation would develop in the future. The Tiandao Alliance will not expand. Everything is just that the senior leaders of the Six Sects are thinking too much. It is estimated that the same situation is the same in Zhengdao.
Therefore, he did not want to take on this task. The reason was also very simple. Without oil and water, he could only sit in the bordering countries, wasting time and getting no credit.
