The conditions offered by the Demonic Path are a little better than before. First of all, Ancestor Hong and Hao, the two Yuanying old monsters, Jiang Yun, and Feng created by the descendants of the Demonic Path in Spirit Beast Mountain all went to the Qiling Mountain Yuling Sect to become one of them. .
The remaining half of the peaks can be moved to Honglan Mountain in the eastern part of the Cavalry Kingdom. It was originally the headquarters of one of the three sects of the Cavalry Kingdom. Although the spiritual veins are much worse than the Spirit Beast Mountain, it is still enough for cultivation.
Qiling Mountain, where Yuling Sect is located, is in the west of Tianluo Kingdom, only two thousand miles away from Honglan Mountain. Although Spirit Beast Mountain must obey the orders of Yuling Sect and cannot be as free as before, but from the geographical location It seems that they have gone out semi-independently, at least leaving the orthodoxy, which is much better than annexing everything before.
However, the magic path also adds additional requirements.
First, Huo Linfeng of Spirit Beast Mountain, as a descendant of the Righteous Path, must be completely wiped out, leaving no one behind.
Second, Jiang Yun must go to Yuling Sect to practice, divorce his Taoist companion, and marry Yue Luoling.
When this condition was mentioned, Yue Luoling glared at Jiang Yun again and began to size up Jiang Yun. He looked heroic and brave. He was worthy of being a demonic monk. He dared to love and hate, and never kept secrets.
But looking at Jiang Yun's face, Yue Luoling gradually began to blush, and finally looked away. Jiang Yun noticed that she was adjusting her breathing.
Third, cooperate with the six demon sects inside and outside to help the demon conquer the Yue Kingdom!
At first glance, this condition is really good. Jiang Yun can get better training after entering the Yuling Sect, as if he regards Jiang Yun as one of his own, and the spiritual beast mountain can also retain the orthodox layout after being eaten up and wiped clean, inside the door. Descendants of the demonic path can also return to their hometown.
However, although Jiang Yun looked excited on the surface and said that he would give it serious consideration, but the elders needed to make the final decision on the matter, he actually disagreed with it in his heart.
The truth sounds complicated, but it is actually very simple.
In recent years, Jiang Yun has had a really good relationship with Fu Yunzi, Nangong Wan, Hong Fu, Li Huayuan and many other monks in the alchemy stage of the seven major sects.
Let's not talk about whether Jiang Yun can be brave enough to stab these friends in the back, and whether he can abandon his wife and find a new love.
Even if he did it all and went to Yulingzong, it would be of no benefit to Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun's status in the seven major sects is very stable. It can be said that his status is second only to the Yuanying old monsters and slightly higher than other monks in the Danjie stage.
In addition, under the protection of Master Yuanying, all parties are also very friendly to Jiang Yun. This can be seen from the fact that the seven parties have given the green light to Zhenfandian in recent years.
But what if you go to Yulingzong? As a sect that has been passed down for thousands of years, the forces within it must be intertwined, and all kinds of interests must have been divided up. Let’s not talk about the opinions of those in power and the second and third generations of Jiang Yun. Even if they are friendly to Jiang Yun, they will at best put Jiang Yun at risk. Yun Dang is a powerful thug.
Because Jiang Yun is not a direct descendant of the Yuling Sect, it is okay to cultivate to the early Yuanying stage. If he reaches the middle stage of the Yuling Sect, the Yuling Sect will be extremely wary of him, for fear that he will become more powerful and seize the authority of the Yuling Sect.
If we go by more malicious speculations, it is not impossible that there are even old monsters who will try to seize Jiang Yun's body. Although the Tianpin Jindan cultivator has strong luck and has the ability to prevent the body from being taken away, it is impossible to ensure that the Qi Demon Dao has a way to extract the luck. After drawing, take the house again.
Besides, Jiang Yun actually doesn’t have much luck anymore. In the two and a half years since he formed the pill, most of the luck that Jiang Yun borrowed has dissipated...
The luck dissipated faster than expected. According to the estimate of the spirit seal, it would take more than ten years to dissipate. The specific reason is unknown.
The spirit seal has the ability to protect the soul and resist body snatching, but Jiang Yun is not prepared to take this risk.
All in all, Jiang Yun was not born into the direct line of the Yuling Sect, and a guy who joined halfway would not be completely trusted after all.
Jiang Yun later communicated the matter with his masters, Patriarch Hong and Patriarch Hao. Patriarch Hong still scoffed, saying that being absorbed into the Yuling Sect was still a matter of being dependent on others and being asked for and asked for. A small half of the peaks were only semi-independent in name. , he will be a high-quality vanguard in future battles with other forces.
Ancestor Hao told Jiang Yun without hesitation that he had received a letter from the Hao family. The Hao family was one of the most powerful families in the Yuling Sect. The person who wrote the letter was one of the supreme elders of the Yuling Sect. According to his seniority, he was Mr. Hao. An uncle of Zu, who was in the middle stage of Yuanying.
The letter contained the hope that Old Ancestor Hao would recognize his ancestor and return to the clan, as well as guarantee the interests of Spirit Beast Mountain in the Yuling Sect.
Old Ancestor Hao told Jiang Yun that if it were in the past, he might have agreed to the Demonic Way's request, but because of Jiang Yun's appearance, it is entirely possible for Spirit Beast Mountain to go one step further in the future and become a dominant force. Why bother to go back to the Yuling Sect to look at people? face.
He also told Jiang Yun that as long as Jiang Yun can cultivate to the point where he can compete with the late Nascent Soul in the future, then he can try to win over the Zijin Kingdom in the south, the Yuanwu Kingdom in the north, and other small countries to become a new force.
By then, Spirit Beast Mountain will be the absolute core of this force! Becoming a first-class sect is by no means a delusion.
However, it is still too far away to consider these things now. The most important thing now is to win the demonic invasion war in the near future. In addition, Spirit Beast Mountain may be able to do some shameless things to enhance our winning rate.
For example...pretend to surrender, and then.........................
Later, Jiang Yun saw a big show, starring two ancestors and the audience was the messenger of the devil. The content was that Hao Ancestor wanted to return, but Hong Ancestor insisted not to approve it. In the end, neither of them could persuade the other, so The defection was put on hold for the time being.
Lingbeast Mountain has developed very well in recent years. In the past few decades, Jiang Yun has also successfully formed elixirs after Senior Sister Jiang Muyan of Jinjiaofeng.
You must know that Tianque Castle and Huadaowu, the weakest of the seven sects, have not seen any new monks in the alchemy stage for eight or ninety years.
However, Jiang Muyan did not choose to build a new peak but practiced alone.
Not building a new peak means there is no ranking, so the possibility of obtaining Foundation Establishment Pills and Beast Taming Cards through size ratios is lost.
It is worth mentioning that Feng Lingyun, the eldest brother of Heisha Peak, failed to form pills twice. The second time he even injured his foundation. After that, he went out to travel, and I don’t know what his current situation is.
Jiang Yun could only lament that the two of them had similar cultivation and status back then, and they had feelings for each other, so they were a good match. In addition, if the two peaks had a good relationship, it would be quite possible for them to become a Taoist couple. If they could, it would be a good story.
But just a few decades have passed, and their status and cultivation have become worlds apart. I wonder if their love will one day blossom and bear fruit.
In Jiang Yun's opinion, this possibility would not be possible before Feng Lingyun successfully formed the elixir.
Jiang Yun sighed and said to Yu Jiuxi.
"Although I am still striving for excellence in selecting members, the number of official members still reaches more than 600, including 54 foundation-building monks, all of whom are good players."
"The seven major party organizations have been very supportive in the past two years, so 50% of the official members are monks of the seven major sects, the remaining 20% are family monks, and the proportion of casual cultivators is only 30%."
Yu Jiuxi said helplessly: "There is nothing we can do about it. The organization has very high requirements for the combat prowess of official members, and the sect has a training mechanism for disciples. There are people who answer questions and solve problems, and the skills, spells, and magical weapons are updated. Systematization and even qualifications are generally better than casual cultivators, so it is natural to be stronger."
Jiang Yun put down his tea cup and warned: "When I recruited members, on the premise of ensuring their combat strength, I specifically selected those who did not do well in the sect, or were even suppressed. After all, there are many second and third generation sects, and it does not mean they have good qualifications. They can stand out, so their sense of identification with the organization is still very high.”
"However, there are also a small number of members who were given to me by some friends in the Dan Formation stage. They are all their descendants, and it is difficult for me to refuse them. In fact, I understand what they mean and hope that I can accept their descendants as my disciples."
"I declined a small number of those whose temperaments were not up to standard, and in the end the ones I recruited were all good ones."
"The number of peripheral members has reached one thousand and seven. Although I ordered each branch hall to stop recruiting people six months ago, there are still too many. We need to streamline it in the future."
"I calculated that only 1,500 people are enough to take care of the organization's 276 resource points to maintain the operation of the branch temples in each state."
"I took a look at the details. The organization's revenue is very good, and the income from major resource points is getting higher and higher. However, we still have to be careful about members reaching out randomly and ask the intelligence department to pay more attention. I can rest assured that Han Yu is watching me. Let Yu Mo be your helper, it’s not good for that guy to be always doing the killing job, so let him learn some intelligence work.”
"Yes, Master!"
"Also, the number of first- and second-level elixirs and low- and medium-grade magic weapons that our organization has recently fallen behind has been a little behind. We have to ask our suppliers to increase supply, but the quality must be guaranteed. You should keep an eye on this matter."
"Yes, I'll handle it right away."
"Who is responsible for teaching those reserve talents these days?"
"It's Fellow Daoist Liu Jing. He has been a little idle recently because the number of demon-killing tasks has been decreasing. I recommended this task to him and told him to train more comrades so that he can eliminate demons and defend the Tao more efficiently in the future. He agreed on the spot. .”
"Because this task took a long time, I specially sent someone to Qingbo Cave in Huangmaple Valley to inform him of this matter. Senior Li Huayuan wrote back and expressed his deep appreciation for Taoist Liu Jing's behavior."
"By the way, Fellow Daoist Liu Jing also invited fellow Daoist Song Meng to come over as a temporary teacher to teach the use of weapons."
"Yes, Liu Jing's fighting skills and experience are among the best in the organization. He is actually very smart, but he is easily fooled. I feel relieved to have him teach me. Fellow Daoist Song Meng is also a good fighter."
"Our Zhenfan Palace is a conscientious organization. Although Fellow Daoist Song Meng is not a member of the organization, how can we let Fellow Daoist Song Meng work for nothing? Tell him that the organization will give him a reward, according to the standard of ten quick spiritual stones a day!"
"Yes, Master! But I remember that Fellow Daoist Song was from the Song family in Hanzhou, and he belonged to a neutral family. However, he had good relations with Huang Maple Valley. Fellow Daoist Song is still the eldest son of the Song family, so he might not look down on this spiritual stone."
"It's okay. I'll write a letter to the Song family in my name later, just saying that I admire their eldest son a little. There's no need to say anything else."
"Yes, master."
Jiang Yun thought of the task assigned by his master, Patriarch Hong, some time ago, and continued.
"Also, we have killed fewer and fewer evil cultivators in the Yue Kingdom. They are either dead and running away, or they are hiding and afraid to show their faces again. The number of missions to eliminate demons and slay evil spirits has been reduced to 60% of what it was ten years ago. Many members have reported to me that they can no longer contain their determination to correct the problem."
At this point, Jiang Yun sighed in his heart. Although there were many people in the organization who were truly committed to upholding the right path, most of them were doing tasks in exchange for training resources. Jiang Yun also understands that there will be big problems if the amount of tasks is insufficient.
"As a teacher, I thought over and over again and decided to expand the business of exterminating demons and protecting mortals to the western part of the Cavalry Kingdom. According to intelligence, after the Demon Flame Sect and Tiansha Sect captured the Cavalry Kingdom, the number of evil cultivators there skyrocketed. Evil cultivators in many countries They have all gathered together, so the mortals of the Riding Kingdom have been in the heat of water. We cannot ignore it."
Yu Jiuxi rolled her eyes and skillfully refilled Jiang Yun's tea, but said it unceremoniously.
"Master, I appreciate the purpose of our Zhenfan Palace to destroy demons and protect mortals, but those evil cultivators will be high-quality cannon fodder for the Demonic Dao in the future. Even if we go there to kill evil cultivators in name, it is unlikely that the Demonic Dao will watch helplessly. We will eliminate their cannon fodder and we will most likely take action.”
"If the Demon Flame Sect and Tiansha Sect take action against us, the consequences will be self-evident."
"According to the available information, the Demon Flame Sect and the Tiansha Sect are the third and fourth most powerful sects among the six demon sects respectively. Each has four Nascent Soul Stage monks, dozens of Core Formation Stage monks, and several Foundation Establishment Stage disciples. Hundreds of people, stronger than any of our seven major sects..."
"And the organization currently only has one monk in the Dan-formation stage, Master, and fifty-four people in the Foundation-building stage. It's like hitting an egg against a rock, and not even a single wave can be stirred up."
Jiang Yun naturally understood this in his heart, but this matter was not something he could decide.
Going to fight in the Cheqi Kingdom in the name of Zhenfandian was also the result of discussions among the Yuanying old monsters from the seven major sects, and Jiang Yun had no right to refuse.
The will of the seven major sects to resist the devil is stronger than Jiang Yun imagined.
After all, the seven major sects completely controlled the country of Yue and were used to living a good life. How could they be willing to run away in despair and live under the shelter of others?
In fact, the Yuanying old monsters do not expect Zhenfandian to defeat the Demon Flame Sect and the Tiansha Sect's manpower left in the Riding Kingdom. Instead, they hope to play a certain role in harassing them, delaying time, and killing some cannon fodder for the sake of the future. The best preparation for war.
At present, the seven major sects have been vigorously recruiting disciples, and various resources, including foundation-building pills, have also been released a lot, just to have more cannon fodder and effective combat power in the future.
If you act in the name of the seven major sects, it will easily arouse the vigilance of the devil and easily expand the scale of the war.
And now the seven major factions are already clearing away unrest in the country.
The seven major sects discovered that the Demonic Way has been in contact with many immortal cultivating families in the Yue Kingdom, and many of them have shown signs of rebellion. This is understandable. After all, the Demonic Way is powerful, and there are many who look down on the seven sects of the Yue Kingdom.
Some of these families are neutral families, and some are affiliated families of the seven major sects.
The purging activities have begun, and these families have been accused of colluding with the devil. From the golden elixir monks to the Qi-training clan members, all of them will die.
Disciples including those whose families had joined the seven major sects long ago cannot escape their involvement, but they will not be allowed to die directly, but will be allowed to prove their innocence and that they are not incompatible with the devil.
The sect will plant a ban on them and send them to the western part of the Cavalry Kingdom to serve as cannon fodder under the orders of Houzhen Fandian. If they make enough achievements, the ban can be lifted.
The seven major sects are absolutely ruthless in this regard. Just having contact with the devil but not reporting and surrendering is enough for them to die.
Of course, most people are innocent and unaware. After all, only core members will know about betrayal. But regardless of whether these monks know about it or not, their fate has been doomed. It is sad, but also very realistic.
Jiang Yun understood that this was to prevent these families from becoming the leading party or directly surrendering to the devil when the demonic attack came, so he cleaned up the unstable families first. At the same time, it can also free up a lot of spiritual vein resource points.
All Yuanying old monsters understand that the demonic invasion of Yue is a foregone conclusion. It is only a matter of time. To fight against the outside world, we must first settle down the inside.
The task of Zhenfan Palace this time is to light the fire personally, and then these family monks can add cannon fodder as firewood, and retreat after burning. There is no need for Zhenfan Palace to fight hard. As for how many enemies this fire can burn to death.
Besides, there are now more than a dozen outstanding second- and third-generation sects in Zhenfan Hall. Will Jiang Yun let them die?
This kind of killing is not difficult. When the time comes, Jiang Yun will break up the cannon fodder into teams to prevent acquaintances from joining forces, and then send some official members of the Zhenfan Palace as team leaders.
Jiang Yun actually wanted to say something to his master: "Master, master, I'm embarrassed to tell you that in the original timeline, our Spirit Beast Mountain was the biggest traitor to the Yue Kingdom."
Jiang Yun calmed down and comforted Jiu Xi: "Don't worry, it is said that there is reliable information that the Demon Dao has only arranged a dozen Danjie monks and a large number of low-level disciples to garrison in the Cavalry Kingdom. There are no Yuanying old monsters, and we There is not much risk in activities in the western part of the Riding Country, close to our border with Vietnam.”
Yu Jiuxi sighed and said softly: "I hope so. It is not easy for the organization to grow to its current scale."
"That's it. Let's start making preparations first. The location of the temporary base camp, logistics, and the selection of personnel to participate in the mission must be prepared. We will start after the Ascension Conference is over."
"Yes, master!"
....................................................
Tainanshan stall area.
Han Li walked on the road paved with blue bricks, looking at the endless stalls as far as the eye could see, as well as the shouts, quarrels, and even sounds of fights from the stall owners around him, which gave people a feeling of fireworks.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that immortal cultivators also had emotions and desires, and were not so superior.
While Han Li was browsing the stalls, he calmly listened to the conversations around him.
Han Li is not a fool. On the contrary, he is very observant and very smart.
"A giant golden sword, a magic weapon. This thing is very powerful. As long as you buy it, you will definitely be able to kill everyone in the arena competition of the Immortal Ascension Conference. Joining the seven major sects and getting the Foundation Establishment Pill is just around the corner! It only costs 80 spiritual stones!"
"Bah, a low-grade magic weapon that you call like a high-grade magic weapon costs eighty spirit stones. The low-grade Qingling Flying Sword sold by Fanlou only costs sixty spirit stones. It's much better than this shoddy thing like yours. !”
"Why are you talking? Believe it or not, I will beat you up!"
"I'm afraid of you, come on!"
After a while, a group of people gathered around the two of them and watched from a distance of ten meters. In the end, there was no fight, and it ended after a few curses. Everyone dispersed in disappointment and went about their business.
Han Li was also one of the onlookers, but he was standing in a safer position behind the crowd.
"There are all kinds of talismans. Come and take a look."
Han Li looked at the talismans on the stall. The prices ranged from five spiritual stones to ten spiritual stones, and he soon saw a familiar talisman.
"That golden talisman seems to be the defensive talisman used by Master Jin Guang. It was originally worth eight spiritual stones."
Han Li looked at the stall owner for a while and walked away with disgust in his eyes.
Soon Han Li saw another stall selling elixirs. He saw Huanglong Dan and Golden Marrow Pills on sale. Han Li was a little curious about the value of these two elixirs. He had a lot of them.
"This old man, I wonder how much these Golden Marrow Pills and Huanglong Pills cost?"
The stall owner was an old man. He coughed from time to time and looked like he was dying.
Hearing Han Li's inquiry, the stall owner raised his head, looked at Han Li's attire and said impatiently: "One spiritual stone after another, because it is made from ordinary medicinal herbs, not spiritual herbs, so it is the most precious stone on the stall. It’s cheap, no counter-offering allowed! Ahem!”
"Can you pour one out for me to have a look at?"
Although the old man was impatient, he still kept one in his hand. Han Li frowned after looking at it carefully and said, "Fellow Taoist, this elixir has almost no medicinal fragrance. It seems that the medicinal potency is insufficient. Could it be that it was refined with herbs that are not of the right age?"
Hearing Han Li's words, the old man immediately blew his beard, stared, and shouted: "Get out!"
At this time, the old man was very angry, and he looked completely different from before when he was about to die. Han Li ran away quickly.
------Digression-----
Originally, I could write three or four chapters about the celebration ceremony, but after thinking about it, I decided to forget it and hurry up and speed up the plot.
