Yuqin Mountain in Yunzhou is well-known among the eight southwest states. Thanks to Yuqin Demon Emperor's majestic personality, he obviously has the ability to dominate the mountains and monopolize treasures, but he "spreads wealth and gathers people" to open Yuqin Mountain to the outside world. .
This place has always been the first choice for casual cultivators and small sects to settle down.
Yuqin Mountain is very popular in the spiritual circles of the eight southwest states. Immigrants are constantly pouring in. It is a lively area in the wilderness.
Back then, the dog brother Lao Liu followed Chu Chen from Qingzhou to Yunzhou and came to Yuqin Mountain for development as soon as possible.
When you come to Yuqin Mountain, you are a Yuqin person.
This is not a lie, but it is real and has an excellent reputation.
It stands to reason that there will be no problems if the Lingshan Sect moves to Yuqin Mountain.
In addition, Taoist Fuhua, one of the giants of the Yuqin Mountain Shrine, has come forward. For the sake of his sworn brother, the Yuqin Demon Emperor will not only approve, but even warmly welcome him.
However, in fact, the Yuqin Demon Emperor was very resistant to the Lingshan Sect settling in Yuqin Mountain. He did not give Taoist Fu Hua any face and refused very simply, without any discussion.
Chu Chen was a little surprised at first, but after careful consideration, he figured out something.
Dachang Celestial Dynasty built a city in Yuqin Mountain. Correspondingly, the demonic forces also established a stronghold in Yuqin Mountain. All parties had a bowl of water and did not fall to any side, trying their best to be neutral.
As a neutral force, Yuqin Mountain has a good sense of proportion.
However, when the Lingshan sect settled in Yuqin Mountain, it would be different.
Compared with local casual cultivating families, small sects, and even heretical sects, the origins of the Lingshan Sect are somewhat sensitive. Not only is it an authentic Xuanmen sect, but it also comes from the land of Kyushu. The master and the young master are even higher-ups in the Immortal Court. A powerful civil force in the Celestial Dynasty.
Others don't know it, but the Yuqin Demon Emperor has a heart-to-heart relationship with Taoist Fu Hua, and they are sworn brothers and treat each other with sincerity. He has known about the relationship between his second brother Fu Hua and the Jiuzhou Lingshan Sect for a long time, and knows how powerful it is.
Originally, the Lingshan Sect was among the crowd, but they did not use the Lingshan Sect banner. The Yuqin Demon Emperor only had to pretend to be confused and pretend he didn't know.
But the problem is that now that the Lingshan Sect has entered Yuqin Mountain with great fanfare, the meaning is different.
The inextricable relationship between Taoist Fu Hua, the second master of the Yuqin Mountain Shrine, and the Lingshan Sect, if anyone knew about it, could easily break the "neutral stance" and cause the demonic forces to misjudge and feel that Yuqin Mountain is secretly leaning towards the Celestial Empire.
This is not a good thing for Yuqin Demon Emperor, and it increases the risk of trouble.
Nowadays, the struggle between the Heavenly Dynasty and the Demonic Court is fierce, and it is far from the point of deciding the outcome. With his Taoist practice, it is not worthwhile to fall to either side.
Of course, in addition to the reasons for Yuqin Mountain's position, it is not ruled out that the Yuqin Demon Emperor is afraid of Lingshan's doves occupying the magpie's nest.
In the past, the Lingshan sect lived in Yuqin Mountain without opening a mountain gate, so it was just a small fight. Once the sect was established in the mountain, it meant settling down and developing here, and the situation was very different.
The speed of Chu Chen's rise is too astonishing. With a generation of grandmasters, no one can be sure whether the Lingshan sect will become a major sect, or even the ancestral hall of the Xuanmen Holy Land. When the time comes, it will even threaten the God of Yuqin Mountain. palace status.
It is inconvenient for the Chinese government to encroach on Yuqin Mountain wantonly, but it is different for the private sects. How can they open this hole at will?
"This is a real nuisance."
When Chu Chen saw the troubled expressions on the faces of the two patriarchs, Fu Hua and Fu Ling, he also understood that the matter was more difficult and not as simple as he initially imagined.
Demon King Yuqin has deep considerations and will not easily agree to "lead the wolf into the house". This is human nature and cannot be avoided.
Taoist Xu Ping took a deep breath, turned around and asked:
"Disciple, do Lingshan Sect insist on settling in Yuqin Mountain? I see that my master has helped us choose many good places. There are many good places. Although some are a little worse than Yuqin Mountain, they are not too bad. Spend more jade money, Lingshan sect these years"
"It's not about the money."
Chu Chen shook his head and said firmly:
"It is best for our Lingshan sect to settle down in Yuqin Mountain. It is related to the fate of the Lingshan sect for thousands of years and cannot be careless."
The places that can breed the Cave Heaven Blessed Land are all places with wonderful creations of outstanding people and spirits. Not to mention the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, just the peripheral areas have continuous blessings and eternal spiritual veins of heaven and earth.
Just like Longling Mountain in Qingzhou, it has undergone thousands of years of vicissitudes and changes. Today, it is still rich and boundless and is a truly blessed place on earth.
Ten years ago, when the prototype of Yuqin Cave Tianfu Di was born, a large number of Five Elements treasures emerged.
This is evident.
The Lingshan Sect settled down in Yuqin Mountain and founded the sect, which laid the foundation for the great sect of Immortal Sect and even the Xuanmen Holy Land. It would save countless troubles in the future.
This relocation must be done in Yuqin Mountain.
Moreover, it is not suitable to develop in Yuqin Mountain secretly.
Others don't know, but he knows very well that Yuqin Mountain will be great in the future. If he doesn't enter the enclosure with great fanfare as soon as possible, there will be more people competing in the future and the situation will become more complicated.
The Lingshan Sect has long occupied a place in Yuqin Mountain. In the future, the Dachang Dynasty will completely consolidate the territory of the eight southwest states. At that time, the Lingshan Sect will also have reasons to occupy this blessed land. After all, they obtained it from outside forces and are assisting the Celestial Dynasty in opening up the territory. Expanding soil.
Legally speaking, it is tenable.
There are countless reasons.
However, it was not easy for him to analyze the reasons with everyone in the Lingshan Sect at the moment, so he could only implement the matter with force.
"this"
Taoist Fu Hua, Taoist Fu Ling, and Taoist Xu Ping were slightly surprised when they saw Chu Chen's rare firm tone and strong style.
Speaking of which, Chu Chen has long been the leader in Lingshan sect's Taoist cultivation and magic power. However, he has not shown too much force in front of his elders. He is usually gentle and courteous, respects his teachers, and is rarely accommodating. Show such a strong side.
This scene surprised Taoist Fu Hua and Xu Ping, and they all realized something.
A few years ago, Yuqin Mountain underwent a sudden change and many treasures of heaven and earth were born. Speculations arose from all outside parties. In the past few years, the rumors have stopped.
Although the rumors from the outside world have subsided, all parties in the eight southwest states, as well as the Celestial Dynasty and the Demon Court, have not given up. They still sent a lot of forces to stay in Yuqin Mountain to find opportunities, and the waves are turbulent in the dark.
Taoist Fu Hua, as the second in command of Yuqin Mountain Shrine, knows this best.
Seeing that Chu Chen's attitude was so strong and unquestionable, he couldn't help but speculate. Could it be that his disciple Chu Chen knew the secret?
For a moment, he was filled with speculations.
His disciple now has a profound spiritual practice and a good connection with the immortals. No one can say what he knows about his connection with the gods.
Of course, it was just a guess. Fu Hua, Fu Ling and even Taoist Xu Ping had a tacit understanding. No one asked, only nodded slightly.
Taoist Fu Hua took a deep breath, shook his head and said:
"Zhenyi, I have a vague idea of what you mean. Yuqin Mountain is indeed a good place. However, I know Taoist Brother Yuqin. He is firm in his heart towards the Tao. He is determined to prove the Tao and become an immortal. He does not want to provoke trouble from the outside world. This is impossible. Let our Lingshan faction settle in Yuqin Mountain."
Taoist Fu Ling and Taoist Xu Ping nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, this matter is too difficult. Yuqinshan is famous for its firmness in Shintoism within hundreds of miles around. He is definitely not willing to allow the Lingshan sect to settle in."
Taoist Yunlei, Taoist Yunfeng and others had just arrived and did not understand the situation in the eight southwest states. They were confused and did not understand the difficulty of the matter. However, the other Lingshan Sect disciples nodded one by one.
Chu Baiqing and Guang Gengsheng were no exception. They both shook their heads, not optimistic that this matter would happen.
The Yuqin Demon Emperor had no position at all and allowed the Lingshan Sect to settle in Yuqin Mountain.
Chu Chen was the only one present who kept his expression unchanged and smiled calmly:
"It's a good thing that Yuqin Demon Emperor is firm in his heart towards the Tao. I'm afraid that if he is not firm in his heart towards the Tao, he will be troubled by mundane things."
Everyone in the room looked at each other in shock when they heard this.
Taoist Fuhua was also slightly surprised and sighed: "Zhenyi, Taoist brother Yuqin has not been moved by external objects for a long time. Even if he is exchanged for the magic weapon of transformation, he probably won't be tempted at all."
"That's not necessarily the case. There is no impossible deal in the world, only an offer that is not sincere. Master, I'll go meet with Senior Yuqin for a while."
As the saying goes, nothing is difficult in the world, only those who are willing can do it.
Chu Chen felt it was imperative that the Lingshan Sect settle in Yuqin Mountain, and he was willing to work hard for it.
On the same day, Chu Chen, Xu Ping, Fu Hua, and Fu Ling rushed to the Yuqin Mountain Shrine together.
Speaking of which, the last time I went to the Yuqin Mountain Shrine was more than ten years ago. At that time, Chu Chen, a new official, took office as the governor of Yuqin County. He was very high-spirited and made a splash at the mountain god's banquet, winning huge benefits for Yuqin County.
When he returned to his old place again, he was already a third-grade monk with great supernatural powers. He was qualified to sit on an equal footing with the Yuqin Demon Emperor and call each other "fellow Taoist".
Led by Taoist Fu Hua, the second in command of Yuqin Mountain, the group arrived outside the Mountain God Palace smoothly.
Surprisingly, a man wearing a moon-white gown greeted him from a distance with a group of people, as if he had already known about their arrival.
"I've met Senior Fu Hua, Senior Fu Ling, and I've met Daoist Master Xu!"
Zhang Linsheng and Zhang Xiucai greeted everyone with a smile, and finally fell on Chu Chen and said with a smile:
"Brother Chu, I heard that you were going to move the Lingshan Sect to Yuqin Mountain, which made me extremely happy. Unfortunately, my father-in-law was not happy and even gave me a lecture."
Chu Chen's heart moved slightly when he saw the scholar shaking his head and swinging his folding fan, looking like a coquettish man.
Others may have said this as a polite remark, but the scholar said this, and with the coquettish temper of this boy, he most likely actually begged for mercy on his behalf. I guess he might have been attacked by the Yuqin Demon Emperor. Words reprimanded.
This was also the reason why Chu Chen never thought of asking the scholar to help intercede. The stakes were so important that it would be awkward to ask the scholar for help.
"Xiucai, thank you. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, I will practice cultivation in Yunzhou later. Let's have a drink together when we are free."
"That's good."
Shanshen Palace is a side hall.
The floor is paved with soft animal skins, and two gorgeous jade chairs are placed on the plush carpet. The surrounding furnishings are also made of jewelry, jade and gold, making the entire hall magnificent.
"I've met Senior Yuqin!"
"You're welcome. Let's each call each other our own names. You and I can address each other as fellow Taoists. Fellow Taoist Chu, please!"
Demon Emperor Yuqin laughed heartily and looked hospitable, leading Chu Chen to sit down.
"Thank you Taoist Yuqin!"
Chu Chen was very calm and calm, and his identity change came naturally without any hesitation.
Perhaps because he was afraid that Taoist Fu Hua would ask for mercy and get entangled, Yuqin Demon Emperor only summoned Chu Chen, and the rest of the people were all laughed and pulled by the great supernatural power demon cultivator Xiong Wu to sit down and drink.
There were only two people in the hall.
"The world has changed. In just ten years, Taoist friend Chu has reached the third level and laid the foundation for becoming an immortal. It is truly amazing."
In the spacious and quiet gorgeous palace, the Yuqin Demon Emperor looked at the jade trees in front of him, the young Taoist who was floating and free and easy. His emotions came from the bottom of his heart and he could not calm down for a long time.
He still vividly remembers the scene when he first met Chu Chen more than ten years ago.
Thinking about Chu Chen's fifth-grade super-level Taoist cultivation back then, although he had a solid foundation and dazzling achievements, he didn't pay much attention to it at that time. Over the years, he had seen too many so-called "amazingly talented" geniuses.
Among them, there are many fifth-grade super-grades who are similar in age to Chu Chen. Unfortunately, in the long journey of cultivating immortality, many geniuses with good momentum failed to make it to nine days in one go.
Not to mention attaining enlightenment and becoming an immortal, just the bottleneck of great supernatural powers and the bottleneck of reaching the third level has blocked too many amazing geniuses.
However, Chu Chen was different.
He first achieved the realm of great supernatural power, and in just ten years, he reached the third level. The momentum became stronger and stronger, and its edge was like a soaring fairy sword.
Seeing this young Taoist who was as gentle as jade and yet restrained in his sharpness, Demon Emperor Yuqin couldn't help but have the idea in his heart that "this boy has the appearance of becoming an immortal" and couldn't help but sigh:
"I heard from my second brother that your Taoist name is really beneficial. This is a wonderful name. You are vigorous and diligent, and the situation is very good."
"Senior, I have good eyesight. This is the Taoist title given by my master. Back then, I encountered a disaster and had just entered the Taoist gate at the age of twenty. My master gave me the word [Benefit], which is based on the hexagram of Feng Lei Yi Gua."
Chu Chen smiled slightly and bowed his hands:
"This junior is able to achieve today's achievements thanks to your guidance back then. Although I have only heard about the method of Nine Colors Divine Strength, I have benefited a lot."
"Hahaha~ Fellow Daoist Chu, I appreciate your compliment and accept it shamelessly."
Demon Emperor Yuqin smiled and joked, then his style changed:
"This emperor and your master are sworn brothers. You and I are a family. It is our duty to be on good terms with you. This emperor is very happy. However, if you want to beg me today to allow the Lingshan sect to settle in Yu Qin Shan, there’s no need to mention it.”
As he said this, maybe he was afraid that Chu Chen would ask for mercy, so he quickly said:
"It's not that I'm stingy. You also know that I wholeheartedly seek the truth and don't want to get involved in messy things. Please don't mention this matter again."
When Chu Chen saw Demon Emperor Yuqin hurriedly expressing his attitude as soon as they met, with a decisive look, he felt at a loss of whether to laugh or cry.
Of course, he was not surprised or disappointed. He looked calm, took a sip of the spirit tea calmly, and said with a smile:
"Senior Yuqin, do you know where I went in the past few years?"
The Yuqin Demon Emperor was stunned, a little unable to keep up with Chu Chen's jumping thoughts. However, he did know something about Chu Chen and knew that Chu Chen had gone to the Black Mist Abyss. When he thought of this, he frowned slightly:
"Fellow Daoist Chu, why did you mention this?"
Chu Chen smiled slightly: "Fellow Taoist Yuqin, are you willing to become an immortal?"
