Chapter 337: Meeting at Zhongyuan Palace
In the Zhenwu Hall, the first elder Wu Xi and the second elder Zeng Feng sat on pearwood chairs on both sides. Wu Xi took a sip of tea, and Dan Kou tapped the tea lid lightly, making a crisp ceramic clang sound.
A cold voice said: "Why are you so angry?"
Zeng Feng has returned to his former kind face. It is hard to imagine that this is the elder Zeng Er who showed off his power in the main hall square before.
He picked up the saucer and took a sip of tea, and said in a low voice: "Zhenwutang has been in this secret realm for nearly two hundred years. How has it ever been bullied by the divine religion?"
The great elder put down the teacup in his hand, picked up the book on the desk, and quietly turned over the pages.
Zeng Feng ignored the movements of the other party's hands and continued: "They came this time to chase Gan Gong and asked for an additional three hundred silver spirit beads at the end of the year!"
"Three hundred silver spirit beads? Haha, it seems that you have something else to ask for." The great elder replied calmly without stopping to flip through the book.
Zhenwu Hall has been dealing with the divine religion for more than a year or two. The number of spiritual beads collected by Zhenwu Hall every year is limited. Three hundred silver spiritual beads can basically keep up with the amount collected in half a year. Even if there is a large-scale sea monster tide, it will be difficult to collect enough. .
Zeng Feng frowned, his expression also became sullen and said: "Yes, if we don't hand over the three hundred spirit beads, there will be no place for me in the True Martial Hall when the Two Realms Mountain opens this time."
Hearing this, Wu Xi stopped flipping through the book and raised his eyes to look at the second elder sitting opposite.
"There is no quota?" She frowned slightly and continued: "Then it's really not too much to teach this Tian Qianyi a lesson."
Elder Zeng Er nodded and said sullenly: "It is indeed shameless!"
……Dividing line……
Two Realms Mountain - Zhenwu Hall is a must-go! Liangjie Mountain is like a small secret realm in the capital of God's Domain. After these years of exploration, many techniques have been spread.
Some of them are inherited from the divine religion, and many others come from gifts from ancient practitioners. It is an important foundation for Zhenwutang to improve its overall strength and improve the martial arts system.
But this is the secret realm of the Divine Religion after all, so Han Sanli naturally refuses to let go of these ancient skills, and naturally wants to find ways to get the inheritance of these skills from Zhenwutang. It stands to reason that with Leader Han's saint-level strength, it would be more convenient and faster to snatch it directly from Zhenwutang. However, the inheritance left in the mountains of these two realms are not all from the lineage of the divine religion. Many of them are from Taoism, and even some are from Taoism. Many things explain the inheritance of teachings.
Without the disciples of the Zhenwu Dao Hall, it would be difficult for other sects to obtain this part of the inheritance, so Han Sanli had no choice but to keep the Zhenwu Dao Hall in a secret realm.
The Divine Religion actually used the quota of the Two Realms Mountains to blackmail them. The point must not be the quota, because if the people from the Zhenwu Hall really don't go, they won't be able to use that part of the skills, and they won't be able to blackmail or exchange them. Means, get back to the religion.
Zhenwutang naturally understands this, but does not dare to gamble. If one day Zhenwutang really no longer needs to go to Liangjie Mountain, then there will be no need for Zhenwutang to exist in the capital of God's Domain.
"So, you finally agreed to the three hundred silver spirit beads?" Wu Xi asked.
The additional three hundred spirit beads and the inability to go to the Two Realms Mountain are both unbearable for the current Zhenwu Hall. Update without error@
"No, I cut the spirit beads in half." Zeng Feng said.
"It's good to cut it in half. We have to go to Liangjie Mountain!" Wu Xi raised his hand to reach for the book on the desk.
Zeng Feng stared at the great elder in silence for a few seconds, and then said: "I'll pay for it with two books of exercises."
"Which two books?"
There has always been a tradition of using martial arts to offset spiritual beads in this type of transaction. After all, the goal of the divine sect is those skills that come from the Two Realms Mountains, and Zhenwutang is not stupid. In the past, it used low-level skills to counteract them.
Hearing what Zeng Feng said, Wu Xi just asked casually.
""The Supreme Good as Water Jue" and "Xuanyin Meridian Method".
The great elder's hand, which was originally turning the pages of the book, suddenly paused and asked in a deep voice: "You mean "Xuanyin Pulse Art"?"
Zeng Feng's expression turned into a calm one, he stared at Wu Xi and explained slowly:
"The low-level skills have been worth their weight in these years. For a moment, I can't think of any skills that can be used to make up for it. This skill is not a big loss to our Zhenwu Hall..."
Speaking of which.
, Elder Zeng Er did not explain much. He naturally understood the status of "Xuan Yin Zhao Mai Jue" in the interpretation of teachings. How could he not know that even if he took the Silver Spirit Bead as payment, he shouldn't hand it over to the Divine Cult!
Zhongyuan Hall fell into a dead silence, and there was not even the sound of the Great Elder turning the book. After half a cup of tea, the Great Elder said: "In that case, how many people can we send to Liangjie Mountain this time?"
"Four people. @ "
Without waiting for the other party to ask again, Zeng Feng added: "There is one more than usual, and we can send one more disciple this year. We can get some more skills from Two Realms Mountain to make up for the loss!"
Wu Xi could only comfort herself in this way, but in her heart she knew the significance of "Xuanyin Pulsing Art" to the Zhenwu Hall and even the Zhenwu Dao Hall! There is indeed something wrong with Zeng Feng's behavior!
But Hall Master Lu is still practicing in seclusion, so I can only hold back and not mention it until Lu Chengsan and Zhang Ao come back, and then discuss the matter with them.
"Then let's recommend each of our disciples this time?" Usually there are only three places, and the three elders each select a disciple to show to Hall Master Lu, and then they can be sent to Liangjie Mountain.
It's just that this time there is one more person in the quota, so naturally there are some more variables...
"How about we imitate the Dao Promotion Conference and conduct a competition and selection! The top four will go?" Zeng Feng suggested.
The Great Elder knew clearly in his heart: Only by motivating the disciples to practice through competitions could the strength of the Zhenwu Hall be continuously improved. In recent years, they had only relied on collecting spirit shells and catching sea beasts to pay their bills. Gradually, more and more disciples were content with this status quo and were just getting by. I have almost forgotten the scene where the True Martial Arts Hall and the Divine Sect are incompatible with each other, and they will fight whenever they meet!
Also, except for the old guys like them, most of the young disciples have lived here for generations. They just know not to deal with the divine religion and don't consider the reasons, so their fighting enthusiasm and emotions are far less profound than these old guys.
Wu Xi thought for a moment and then agreed to the second elder's suggestion.
"Since it's a big competition, there should be some rewards." The great elder said calmly.
The two people discussed this matter again and finally finalized the matter.
"Hall Master Lu is about to leave seclusion, and he will be in charge of this matter when the time comes." The Great Elder Wu Xi suddenly added, and Zeng Feng agreed with a smile, but there was no smile in his eyes.
When Zeng Feng saw the great elder starting to turn over the book in his hand again, he stood up, left his seat, and walked slowly outside the hall. He knew in his heart that what happened to the Divine Religion today was too sudden, and that Elder Tian was too arrogant, and many of the plans he had originally set had to be implemented in advance.
"These guys from the God's Cult who are just eating corpses are really hateful!"
