While Lu Li was unconscious, Sihai Mansion and Taiyuan Mansion also began to become restless.
The trigger was the visit of Zhong Mo, the fourth elder of Sihaimen to Taiyuanmen.
Speaking of which, Zhong Mo of Sihaimen rushed to Taiyuanmen to ask for an explanation from the leader of Taiyuanmen, and threatened that if Taiyuanmen did not hand over the Ninth Elder He Qian, the generals of Sihaimen would go to war with Taiyuanmen.
But unexpectedly, Bao Kaitian, the third elder of Taiyuan Sect, has a bad temper.
Taking advantage of Zhong Mo's opportunity to speak, he rushed up and slapped Zhong Mo, and shouted: "If you want to start a war, I will always be with you. If you dare to beep again, I will kill you!"
Zhong Mo was extremely ashamed and angry, but the situation was stronger than others, so he had to endure it and left Taiyuan Sect angrily.
Then, the relationship between the two sects began to deteriorate rapidly, and the battles, large and small, became more and more intense.
At first, it was only the disciples below the Golden Core who fought more, but as time went by, Golden Core monks and Nascent Soul masters also participated in the battle one after another, sneaking into the areas under the jurisdiction of the other party to attack their mineral veins from time to time.
There were also some casual cultivators who took the opportunity to stir up trouble, pretending to be members of the two sects, killing and robbing... For a time, Taiyuan Mansion and Sihai Mansion were in chaos.
In the spring of the next year, another change occurred in the Zhong family.
A mysterious person sneaked into the Zhong family in Sihai City and massacred them. In one night, thousands of members of the Zhong family died tragically. Their bodies with shrunken flesh were neatly placed in the square.
When the people from the City Lord's Mansion came to check the next day, they found several large bloody characters on the square floor tiles: Taiyuan's wrath, you can't bear it!
Xi Zijin was furious and immediately returned to Sihaimen to report the matter.
After hearing this, the fourth elder Zhong Mo was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot and couldn't help it!
However, the leader of the Sihai Sect, Min Jiangshan, felt that there was something fishy in this. The two sides had previously engaged in tug-of-war over the resources of the enemy sect, but they had never implicated innocent people and wiped out other people's families.
Could it be that...the Taiyuan Sect really wants to fight to the death this time?
Speaking of which, this dispute was caused by the fault of the Taiyuan Sect. Why did they do things so cruelly without being justified?
In the summer of the next year, Min Jiangshan personally led nine elders from Sihaimen to go to Taiyuanmen to ask for an explanation.
However, the Taiyuan Sect directly denied the matter, saying bluntly that all this had nothing to do with the Taiyuan Sect, and they also wanted the Sihai Sect to give a reasonable explanation for the death of Ninth Elder He Qian!
Until this moment, no one in Sihaimen knew that He Qian had died in Hidden Sword Mountain.
Then, an unknown name was finally pulled into the vortex.
Land from!
According to their investigation, they learned that this person had also been to Hidden Sword Mountain, and he was also an old monster who transformed into a god. Maybe this person was causing trouble in secret and deliberately instigating the relationship between the two sects.
In the autumn of the next year, in order to prevent people with ulterior motives from taking the opportunity to cause trouble, the two sects decided to make a temporary truce until they found Lu Li.
Then, Lu Li naturally became the wanted target of both Sihaimen and Taiyuanmen.
But what left the two sects helpless was that this person seemed to disappear out of thin air. Even though they had raised the reward to one million high-grade spiritual stones and only provided his whereabouts, they still found nothing.
In the spring of the third year, Zhong Mo, who couldn't find any trace of Lu Li for a long time, was so angry that he smashed tables and chairs. Finally, he had an idea and gave Lu Li a nickname, Shrinking Old Monster.
He also ordered people to publicize it, hoping to anger Lu Li and force him out.
At this point, the words "shrunken old monster" became a topic of conversation among many monks in Sihai Mansion and Taiyuan Mansion after dinner. It didn't take long for it to become a household name.
However, Lu Li was still sleeping in Dielangqiuyuan at this time. How could he come out? I just didn't know what Lu Li would think after hearing that he was so famous.
In addition to the grievances between Taiyuan Sect and Sihai Sect.
In the fourth year of Lu Li's sleep, there was a lot of commotion at the intersection of Taiyuan Mansion, Sihai Mansion and Qixia Mansion.
The Kuiyin River, which was originally calm, would occasionally set off huge waves. The huge waves rushed out of the river bed and swept away the surrounding villages and towns for hundreds of miles.
In just a few hours, tens of thousands of civilians were killed or injured.
Kuiyin was originally a no-nonsense area, but when such a situation occurred, Taiyuan Sect, Sihai Sect and Qixia Sect had to pay attention to it and sent their disciples to check the situation.
However, after these people went there, nothing was found. Instead, the disciples of Taiyuan Sect and Sihai Sect were extremely jealous when they met, and they fought directly in Kuiyin Plains, which was a good show for Qixia Sect disciples.
But after these people returned, Kuiyin River began to riot again.
In the end, the three sects had no choice but to send the old monster of the Transformation God directly. However, in order to avoid another bloodshed incident, both Taiyuan Sect and Sihai Sect sent elders with relatively gentle personalities to go there this time.
After the three of them stayed in Kuiyin Plain for two or three months, they finally discovered some clues, that is, the water level of this river would change significantly every full moon night.
When the water level is low, the river surface that is hundreds of feet wide sinks by more than ten feet!
When the water level is high, it will overflow the river bed for more than ten feet, rising and falling continuously, making it look like it is breathing.
The three of them were surprised and decided to dive into the source to find out.
But unexpectedly, before they could dive into the source, an accident occurred. The elder of Sihaimen flew too fast, as if he had touched some restriction, and was chopped into pieces by a bolt of lightning that flew out of thin air!
When the other two people saw this, they dared not take another half step forward and stepped back without hesitation.
When he learned that his elder had died in Kuiyin Plains, Sihaimen couldn't calm down again.
Some of the restraint faction said that they should first go to Kuiyin Plains to see the situation, while the main combat faction said that all this was caused by the Taiyuan Sect, and they must be taught a lesson...
In general, although the two sects are calm on the surface, they are actually as undulating as the Kuiyin River. They are secretly holding back some big moves.
Let’s put aside the two grudges for the moment.
In the winter of the fifth year when Lu Li was sleeping, the Siping City Dongling Chamber of Commerce sensed an opportunity and suddenly sent dozens of Jindan disciples out of the city at the moment the city gate was closed, causing many people to become suspicious.
It was only half a month later that someone finally learned the whereabouts of these people.
It turned out that these people had all gone to the peaceful Ziyang Mountain, a hundred thousand miles away to the west.
After receiving this news, the practitioners in Siping City immediately couldn't sit still and rushed out of the city one after another, swarming towards Ziyang Mountain.
Later, it was revealed that someone had seen a rare piece of ore in Ziyang Mountain and sold it to the Dongling Chamber of Commerce in Siping City. Moreover, this was not the first piece.
Someone has sold the same ore in Sihai City before. Maybe there is a rare mineral vein hidden in Ziyang Mountain.
Ever since, the news spread to tens of thousands, and then to millions... Finally it became known to everyone in the world, and countless people began to rush to Ziyang Mountain and began their mining journey...
