Ji Xiang followed the eight sect leaders to the so-called secret place of Shangqing, with the word "Kunlun" written on it.
"Kunlun Cave of Shangqing Dynasty."
Legend has it that the ancient Taoist masters, Mao Ying, Wang Bao, and Zhang Daoling, were the Nine Saints and Seven True Masters. They all accepted the Taoist scriptures and worshiped the Queen Mother at the palace of Kunling.
Among the sect leaders of the Shangqing sect, there is also the goddess of the Queen Mother of the West. As the Shangqing, whether it is Patriarch Qingxu, Mrs. Nanyue, or Zhenjun Sanmao, they all recognize the Kunlun sect, which is also the foundation of the Maoshan sect.
This is just like the various sects in Wudang Mountain who all want to worship Emperor Zhenwu. If the monks in the same mountain do not have a common inheritance or a similar inner canon, then they only have one thing in common: the same main god.
As for the Shangqing Sect, after worshiping the Queen Mother of the West of Kunlun, they also respect the Yuanshi Tianzun. This is not too unusual and has nothing special. After all, the Gezaoshan Lingbao Sect also respects the Yuanshi Tianzun.
There was a formation running inside. Ji Xiang took a look at it and cracked it. This was just an entry-level sealing formation, and the formation had obviously been destroyed. After it was re-operated, its power was greatly reduced, so it could be destroyed easily.
"This was destroyed by two ancestors. They said that since the Taoist tradition was about to be passed on, the formation in front of Kunlun Cave was useless. In the future, people from the Zhuhuo Palace would have to enter and exit through Kunlun Cave. If the formation was sealed, It would be too troublesome to go back and crack it.”
"But I don't know why it restarted again, maybe... the mountain master."
The Eighth Sect Master conducted his own reasoning. He believed that the sudden restart of the formation was due to the actions of the Master of Maoshan Mountain. Ji Xiang heard this and asked:
"Is your mountain master here?"
The Eighth Sect Leader said: "If you want to suppress the mountain master, the best place, the most convenient and direct place is the Kunlun Cave."
"I can't understand the ancestor's methods of frightening ghosts and gods, so I don't know how the sect leader is trapped in it."
"The four sect leaders came here to inquire before, and then disappeared here. The ancestors told us that he had rebelled against the Shangqing and had been executed, and they wanted to remove him from the sect of the Shangqing... He was an innate person."
The expressions of the eight sect leaders were complicated. The two sect leaders of the Shangqing Dynasty had killed the four sect leaders who had led the opposition in order to scare the monkeys. The innate masters died without knowing it in front of the two sect leaders. The other sect leaders were naturally grieved and frightened. If they didn't want to die, Then you can't go against the two ancestors.
"I'm not a coward, it's just...the most important thing is the inheritance of orthodoxy."
The eight sect masters opened their mouths and sighed: "Although I am irritable and stupid, I am by no means greedy for life and afraid of death. But if I resist, like the fourth son, the sect will be expelled, the orthodoxy will be destroyed, and all the disciples will disappear for no reason. I'm afraid They are all dead.”
"I can die. After all, now that I have entered the path of spiritual practice, if I really cannot avoid the disaster of death, then there is nothing I can do about it. It's just my own lack of practice, but I'm afraid that my orthodoxy will be destroyed."
"I have been practicing to this day and have created such great achievements in Shangqing. The founders of Shangqing don't care about our orthodoxy because we are also a branch of their orthodoxy. The orthodoxy of mountains and rivers is not important in their hearts, as long as there is still some incense for them to control. That’s fine, but how can I personally give my own orthodoxy to them and destroy it out of anger?”
The eighth sect leader was filled with bitterness and looked sour.
Sometimes, dying yourself is not scary, but the people behind you are scary. Therefore, large groups are often slightly weaker when facing some loners. That is because loners have no scruples, while they have scruples.
Regardless of fame or status, the most important thing is often their orthodoxy or blood relatives.
Ji Xiang just nodded, indicating that he understood his difficulties, and then entered the depths of the Shangqing Kunlun Cave. There is a cave here, as if there is a small earth within the earth, just like the East Dachana Temple of the White Lotus Sect.
The formations were running weakly along the way, and they were all destroyed and then restarted. The Eight Sect Leaders told Ji Xiang that he only knew that the two Quanzhen Taoist priests were thrown here, but he didn't know where they were thrown. .
"Do you think those two were really left here?"
"Yes."
Ji Xiang asked casually: "Then who threw it? Is it the next ancestor of the Shangqing Dynasty or the third ancestor of the Shangqing Dynasty?"
"It should be the Third Ancestor. The Third Ancestor left here and threw the two Taoist priests in."
The Eighth Sect Leader looked in all directions and took the initiative to explore the path. Ji Xiang saw many formation patterns on the wall.
These formation patterns converged in a certain place, and there were many small formations that were broken. Soon the voices of the eight sect leaders came, saying that they had found the location of the Quanzhen Dao monks.
He used a tracking spell. Ji Xiang thought it worked well and asked him for it.
The eight sect masters did not dare not to give it, so they explained the key points of it.
Ji Xiang studied for a while, remained silent for a while, and suddenly asked:
"I know that the Circle Light Technique can be used to trace images, or it can be a hexagram, or a hundred-mile or a thousand-mile tracking technique, which requires the use of the hair, blood, or clothing of the person being tracked. Your tracking method does not require any hexagram or You don’t need to manifest your hair, let alone open your eyes, you just need to recite a spell and then draw an arrow on the ground with blood?”
The Eighth Sect Leader smiled slightly: "I, the Shangqing Sect, naturally have some spells that are different from what is commonly seen. They are just unique."
"The formula is simple, but it is generally not spread out. You can give it a try..."
"Oh, it's just a unique one, that's it..."
Ji Xiang tried it, and sure enough, an arrow ran out. Then, Ji Xiang looked at the eight sect leaders with calm eyes.
However, as Ji Xiang cast the spell himself, the inner scene magic card began to reflect, and the name reflected was not the Maoshan tracking method mentioned by the eighth sect leader!
[Divine Blood Guiding Technique (Heaven Locking Destruction and Escape Formation): Inducement-type spell, set the target to guide the way. The person who uses the guiding technique can find the set target location when he is lost. Its functions are endless. 】
[The current guidance position is the Locking Heaven Destruction Escape Formation. When the leader approaches, the target point will be "guided"! 】
Ji Xiang narrowed his eyes.
When hunters in the mountains catch prey, they often set up inducement traps and wait for powerful prey to voluntarily run into the trap. In order for the prey to fall into the trap obediently, they will inevitably place some delicious raw meat near the trap and bring some with them. Blood, under the influence of the wind, the smell of blood floats, and the prey will naturally take the bait.
"Am I prey?"
Ji Xiang was really disappointed at this time. Just now he thought that the Eighth Sect Master was a person. After all, he had shown a straight-forward character before. He really didn't expect that the other party would actually treat the two ancestors of Shangqing with him. After killing one, he still did such a thing to himself.
What gave you so much courage?
What kind of power drives you to do these things?
"Could it be that his body was taken away from him?"
Ji Xiang just thought so, but there was no way to be sure, so he followed the eight sect leaders and soon saw a coffin placed on a beautifully carved white jade platform.
"Xuan Tian Coffin, there is a world within the coffin. Two fellow Taoists of Quanzhen Taoism, what I found is in that coffin..."
The Eight Sect Leaders took the initiative to move forward, seeming to be guiding Ji Xiang to move forward as well.
But Ji Xiang took two steps and stopped.
"This...senior?"
The Eighth Sect Leader was a little confused, but Ji Xiang said coldly:
"The spell you just performed was not a tracking spell at all, but an induction spell. It is really rare. There are not many people who know the inducement spell in the Zhengfa. This kind of spell itself was developed by the Dharma teachings. If you... go to Maoshan, you can't Did you learn a lot of unskilled skills from Maoshan?"
"Do you think I am an easy person to get along with? You treat me as prey, lure me here, and want to harm me?"
"You are so brave. Aren't you, the Qing Dynasty, fearless? I just killed your ancestor, and you immediately jumped out and slapped me in the face?"
"Eighth Sect Master, this kind of behavior of yours will make me look very shameless. I, the great Taoist Master of the Ming Dynasty, don't want to kill too many lives."
The Eighth Sect Leader fell silent, then changed his face and said fiercely:
"You say that Xia Maoshan's spells are not good, but don't you know it yourself? Otherwise, how could you recognize this divine blood guidance technique?"
Ji Xiang said calmly: "I know many spells, there is no need to report to you, an ant!"
"Before I kill you, you'd better give me a normal explanation!"
The Eighth Sect Master laughed, but his expression looked helpless, and his helplessness gradually turned into a ferocious and crazy attitude toward himself:
"We have no choice! You killed our ancestor, and after this is over, you can just walk away, and what are we going to do?"
"Are we going to abandon Shang Maoshan and break up? Are we going to give up on the thousands of years of inheritance?"
"When Kunlun Terrace opens again, the founders of the Zhuhuo Palace will decline, and they will inevitably liquidate us useless people. The third patriarch has said something similar before, if we are useless, they will replace us all. "
"But the only good thing is that they will preserve our orthodoxy."
"My orthodoxy, as I just told you, must not be broken."
"So I took the risk and hoped to lock you here. Even if I can't kill you, at least I won't be able to get out. When the Kunlun Platform opens next time and the Patriarchs descend, we can have an explanation if you die."
"As for your companions, we will never touch them. By now, the other sect leaders should have driven them down the mountain."
"Maoshan is not a good place. Now in order to uphold the ancestral scriptures of the Qing Dynasty, the two lineages have completely ignored the Taoism of Shanhe, and things like Zhengfa have also been forgotten. We cannot understand the thoughts of the ancestors of Lishanhe, but we You must follow their teachings... Before your companions go down the mountain, we will tell them not to come again next time, no matter what happens."
The eighth sect leader looked at the coffin, and Ji Xiang said calmly:
"You can't understand the thoughts of Satoyama and you still want to follow their teachings? The principles of the ancestors may not be correct. People have experienced thousands or even tens of thousands of years of changes, and their hearts have already changed. The Satoyama I have seen Most of the people in the river are like this.”
"It's very strange, but also very reasonable. After all, there is a saying in Taoism, which is called Taishang Wangqing."
"Completely ruthless, it is also a state of supreme forgetfulness. I have not practiced to this state, so I cannot understand it for the time being. I think you should not understand it either, let alone follow it."
"Also, I'm afraid your formation won't be able to trap me."
Ji Xiang raised his hand to use thunder, but at this time he heard some shouting sounds coming from the Xuantian coffin.
The Eighth Sect Leader explained: "I said, your two companions of Quanzhen Dao are in that coffin. If you want to save them, you must enter the formation and take a walk. If you destroy this formation, then Xuantian will The coffin can no longer be opened."
"Taoist master of the Ming Dynasty, I know that the imperial court eagle dogs have never had any feelings, but you are a member of the Taoist sect after all. If you could ignore these two people, you would not come here with me."
"By the way, the Mountain Lord is also in the coffin. This is the only way to save his life. He can't let go of the Shangqing sect, so we help him put it down. From now on, as long as the Mountain Lord doesn't die, the Shangqing can be rebuilt sooner or later. As for us ....If you offend the Patriarch, it’s enough to keep the orthodoxy.”
Ji Xiang laughed angrily:
"Aren't you afraid that I will go back the way I came from, come out of the Kunlun Cave, kill all your superiors, and then accuse you of being evil?"
"I am a member of the imperial court. Whatever I say when the time comes will be what I say!"
