Going further north from the grasslands outside the pass, there are the Rakshasa countries, which are vast and sparsely populated, and their territory reaches the northernmost coast of the continent.
Ever since the power of the Taiyuan Temple took root in the north, no matter how many forces, large or small, in this vast territory, they all surrendered to the powerful force of the temple.
In the past few years, the various political orders implemented by the tribesmen of Taiyuan Temple here have all forced all the people to fanatically pursue the power of Taisui Martial Arts.
Now here, whether in the city or in the countryside, you can see dueling venues and boxing gyms everywhere.
There are even many open-air dueling venues. Next to each such venue, there will be one or several hero pools, which are often filled with ice, snow, spirits, herbs, etc., depending on the customs of various places, there are slight differences for dueling. The winner of the field is bathed.
The people of the Taiyuan Temple did not move mountains and rivers and build large-scale construction projects in order to recreate the Tiangong palaces in their memories like those of the Ancient Ji Tiangong. They just put all their energy into promoting the spread of Taisui Martial Arts. Supervise and select Tai Sui warriors from various places.
Under such circumstances, the place where the elders of the temple lived was only the original royal palace of the Rakshasa Kingdom.
The palace covers an area of more than 400 acres, including a bell tower.
Among the many elders who have revived in the temple, the third elder with a high status usually studies on the first floor of the bell tower.
Inside this bell tower, there is a large bell, known as the "Bell King", which weighs more than 400,000 kilograms. It was cast on the order of the emperor of the Rakshasa Kingdom two hundred years ago.
However, just when the casting of this big bell was coming to an end, a fire caused the entire bell-making factory to go up in flames.
People were fighting the fire and accidentally poured water on the hot bell.
As a result, the bell body cracked and a fragment weighing about 22,000 kilograms fell off.
Therefore, in the two hundred years since it was cast, this big bell has not had a chance to be rung. It has only been displayed next to the bell tower as a spectacle since a hundred years ago.
Lord Boshan, one of the three great monarchs of the temple, was famous for his love of music in ancient times.
A few years ago, a Tai Sui warrior finally reached a suitable level of cultivation and was chosen to be the resurrected body of Master Bo Shan.
After Lord Boshan came to the palace for an event, he saw the big bell and repaired it. He also personally reinforced the bell tower and hung the big bell.
The third elder is the direct descendant of Master Boshan. From then on, he naturally moved to the bell tower to practice.
On this day, at noon, a leaf flew from the southern sky, floated into the palace, flew to the bell tower, and hit the big bell.
when!
!
A bell rang, shaking the entire palace.
The third elder noticed it first. He walked out and looked up. He caught the leaf and examined it carefully, with a look of surprise on his face.
Other elders who were alerted by the ringing of the bell also rushed over.
"Is there any news from the mountain master?"
"See for yourselves."
The third elder spread out the leaf.
Not long ago, the battle between Guan Luoyang and King Heng, as well as the news of the appearance of Gongtong Holy Land, also alarmed Master Boshan, so he went to check.
It has been many days since I left, and this is the first time news has come back.
On the leaves are recorded what Master Boshan has observed these days.
In addition to Zi Yuanjun, Yuanjun Temple has another strong man who can compete with the monarch's resurrected body. There is also the acupuncture method practiced by Yuanjun Temple's subordinates, and another acupuncture method spread from Tiangong. method.
Lord Bo Shan had never fought against Guan Luoyang, and he arrived a little later. He was just observing in secret, so he didn't guess Guan Luoyang's origin.
This is also because in ancient times, there were many masters at the pinnacle of the Twelfth Heaven of the Earth Mother God Clan. It would not be surprising if some of them were lucky enough to survive, gain new insights, and take the final step in their realm earlier than their foundation.
As for the method of condensing two acupoints from scratch, even Guan Luoyang's version has many steps. It is based on the martial arts of the Earth Mother God Clan, and is only regarded as a newly developed method by Yuanjun Temple.
In ancient times, Yuanjun Temple was most keen on developing this new method, and there were many tricks.
It's a pity that even if they are not inferior to the other two major forces in terms of the speed of sprouting new technologies, in terms of the top-level military force they rely on, they only have one monarch to protect them, so they will inevitably have to make concessions.
The germination of those new methods will often be reproduced by temples and heavenly palaces under various names before long.
In the eyes of the people in the temple, this method of condensing acupoints is just a repeat of ancient events.
After several elders saw it, they praised it repeatedly.
"Their Yuanjun Temple still has great ideas!"
"We have also thought about methods such as Qi and blood nodes. We can indeed use such things to enhance the ability to regulate and control. However, we have not yet come up with a mature method for how to shape the Qi and blood nodes with enough precision. Come on, hum, they got a little ahead of me again.”
"Okay, Master Bo Shan wants us to spread the method of Tiangong, because the various steps are simpler, so everyone should hurry up and do it."
"Then let's practice it ourselves first."
Many elders dispersed one after another, preparing to experience the acupuncture method for themselves to facilitate subsequent dissemination.
Only the fifth elder remained, frowning and saying: "Third elder, do you want to inform the Lord of God and the Lord of Langxu about this matter?"
"Now at Minshan Mountain, there are two resurrected monarchs in Yuanjun Temple and Tiangong Temple, but the mountain master is alone there."
The third elder nodded and said: "Because of this, the mountain master is not prepared to get involved in the affairs of the Holy Land of Gongtong. The master of Langxu went to sea to do business, while the master of the god was looking for the rest of the Qinghong Shouhai, and he had an idea. We don't have to fight for one. Some interests of the Incomplete Holy Land intervened in this conflict prematurely."
The fifth elder smiled and said: "I understand. Since the mountain master is planning to observe from a distance from beginning to end and not interfere, then even if he reports this matter to the other two, it should be the same decision."
"But you still have to report it. This is the rule."
The third elder also laughed, "Tiangong has always been arrogant in doing things, but this time, the Ancestral Temple also has two top masters. If the Ancestral Temple and Tiangong have a real fight just for that holy land, and things get out of hand, then We’ll have fun watching it.”
The two laughed and looked forward to it.
The fifth elder thought of something again and said: "By the way, last time God Lord and the others found a batch of hidden active ores and managed to take them out from the mother layer of the earth. One of them was forty-six elders."
"He has been placed in this palace recently, and his consciousness has gradually awakened. It's time to choose a resurrection body for him."
The face of the fifth elder became solemn, "The forty-sixth elder is very valued by the mountain master. When our temple was first founded, the forty-sixth elder led his tribe and used the music to subtly control the four countries around Kungu to fight each other, and directly killed them. The subjects of the two countries are dead."
"Later, the mountain owner took action and severely damaged the Kungu Holy Land, causing Kungu to break away from the ancestral temple and surrender to the temple. He also specifically singled out the contributions of the forty-six elders and praised them greatly."
"After a while, when the mountain master comes back, he will be very pleased to see that the forty-six elders have revived and can talk about music again."
The third elder pondered: "This matter really needs to be considered carefully. I have some candidates on hand. I will go talk to him later and see which one he likes."
The fifth elder waved his hand and said: "I have already asked him what he meant. He said that even if he wants to choose the resurrection body, this person should have practiced martial arts in the "Law of Earth and Heaven Tribulation" before. Only then are you willing to use it.”
The third elder couldn't help frowning: "I don't have such a person in my hands now. "The Law of Tribulation of Earth and Heaven" is the mountain master's secret knowledge. How can it be easily taught to those future generations?"
"Even among those later generations who have the opportunity to officially join the temple, only Prince Heshuo of Jurchen was able to learn this monarch-level magic book."
The fifth elder did not take it seriously and said: "Prince Heshuo? Then use him. Although he has also been included in the roster of my temple, it is a blessing for a mere disciple to be selected by the forty-six elders."
The third elder thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's right. I will send an order later to call him over."
Soon after, when Prince Heshuo of the Jurchen Dynasty received this order, he embarked on his way north with great anticipation.
He has always been proud of being valued by the Taiyuan Temple and being able to become an official disciple of the temple. He is not satisfied with this status and wants more achievements as a stepping stone to a higher position.
For this reason, he wrote more than once that it was time to take action against Qilu, the buffer zone in the north, and it was time to break the balance and seize the opportunity.
When setting off this time, Prince Heshuo also brought several strategies jointly written by the counselors in his palace, preparing to submit them to the elders of the temple at that time, so that he could take full responsibility for conquering Qilu, occupying waterways, and remotely controlling Kyushu. the entire strategic intent.
Coincidentally, on the day when Prince Heshuo set out on the road, Liu Ziyan, who was in the land of Qilu, received some new news from Guan Luoyang.
Because the earth in this world is very different from the regular earth, and coupled with the increasing activity of the Earth Mother God Clan and Tai Sui warriors, the biological radiation emitted is particularly focused on interfering with microscopic changes. It is endless, fluctuating, and stress-responsive, giving The long-distance communication methods in this world have made it very difficult.
Even the Yuanjun Temple currently uses communication methods that require their own family members to hold communication cores in order to convey the message clearly and accurately.
If other people use this kind of communication spiritual core, it will be difficult to ensure that the messages they receive will not be missed, confused, or intercepted and eavesdropped.
However, Guan Luoyang gave Liu Ziyan a string of seven-color steel rosary beads. With this highly stable and extremely strong signal magic weapon, coupled with the encryption of psychic spells, it was very convenient to communicate as a communication medium.
"What, the Yuyuan Army masters and Wudang Clan members here in Qilu don't have to go to Minshan anymore?"
Liu Ziyan received a lot of information. The more he listened, the more solemn his face became, and he nodded frequently.
After a while, he left his courtyard and was about to find Zhang Qi, the leader of the Yuyuan Army. He met a disciple of Wudang on the way.
The two parties have had several contacts during this period and are relatively familiar with each other. Looking at each other's expressions at this moment, one can tell that they have received similar news.
"The treasure trove of divine weapons and elites from the Wenxiang Sect and Bagua Sect have been prepared recently and will be transferred here in secret."
Liu Ziyan spoke first, "Three of my friends will be responsible for assisting in the transportation using the magical weapons and weapons given by my seniors. Where are you?"
"There will also be some big moves on the Ming Dynasty. A while ago, we were asked to mobilize more manpower to exploit the resources of the Holy Land together. How come there are new changes in a short period of time..."
Taoist Qiurei replied a few words and said worriedly, "Looking at this posture, it is to prepare for war, but how can it be our side? The side of Minshan is obviously competing with Tiangong."
Liu Ziyan secretly thought that the orders originally received by his team and Wudang were orders issued by Senior Luoyang and Zi Yuanjun before they met. The current change is probably due to the new discoveries they made after the meeting.
After all, one is a high-level reincarnation outside the world, and the other is a peerless strong man from the ancient times of the local area. They have also reached the seven-star level and entered the existence of the four heavenly gates of the Divine Gate.
However, Liu Ziyan did not tell all his guesses. He only reminded Taoist Qiurei and said: "It is precisely because we are competing with the Tiangong that we must be prepared for the forces from the north to take the opportunity to spread over."
"What you said makes sense."
Taoist Qiurei responded, but he also had some other thoughts in his heart.
To be honest, if you are wary of the north just because you are worried about the conflict between snipe and clam, you should not spend so much effort to support the north.
Judging from the current secret notices, there is probably going to be a war in the north.
Is it possible that the competition for resources in Minshan can lead to an alliance to fight against the temple?
Not too possible.
So, could it be...
Taoist Qiurei didn't dare to raise his conjecture until he met Zhang Qi, and he didn't even dare to think about the issue in his mind.
Start a war with the Heavenly Palace and the Temple at the same time? !
This is too crazy!
It's hard to say what kind of person that senior Luoyang is, but Empress Yuanjun doesn't seem like someone who would agree to such a crazy plan.
In the next few days, Qilu was busy on the outside and tight on the inside.
Minshan, inside the stone palace.
Zi Yuanjun tasted a spoonful of green fruit vinegar. The red lips were bright and the teeth were fresh inside. Together with the green juice in the white jade spoon, it was a feast for the eyes.
"good."
She pursed her lips and said with a smile, "The potion of medicine I made is no less powerful than the pot of Huangliang Immortal Wine you made."
Guan Luoyang also tasted a cup and shook his head: "It's too sour. It would be better to have a little more sweetness in the drink."
"Oh, then keep this furnace and distribute it to my tribe."
Zi Yuanjun said calmly, "After our recent orders were passed down, it can be seen that although they are all executing them, they are also very worried. Apparently they feel that doing so is too risky."
"Yeah?"
Guan Luoyang said, "Unfortunately, we can't explain it clearly to them."
Even the Qi and Blood Martial Arts places great emphasis on material achievements. In the early stage, the spiritual aspect is not as agile as spiritual energy, nor as wonderful as the divine calculation methods of the Immortal Way.
But as their realm becomes more and more profound, by observing microscopic substances, scrutinizing the force field of heaven and earth, and observing the extremely subtle changes in the magnetic field radiation of all things, they can also sense crises and predict the future.
Any word or thing, as long as it is said or done, will leave traces on the entire world. However, the farther the distance, the duller the traces and the harder it is to detect.
And people who have the realm of monarchs, even if their foundation is only at the twelfth level, can naturally catch some signs on this planet that are really qualified to be detrimental to them.
Only people like Guan Luoyang and Zi Yuanjun can take the lead in some matters and be slightly vague when conveying orders, so that they can avoid being sensed by their targets in advance.
Zi Yuanjun laughed: "You don't think that if you explain it clearly to them, they can rest assured?"
"It's like me. I know your achievements, my strength, and the complete plan. Even so, I still feel that this matter does have a very high risk."
Guan Luoyang said calmly: "But you still agreed."
Zi Yuanjun hummed and looked at the sky outside the stone palace on the mountainside: "Because even if it is such a big risk, it is already much better than what I expected before. You really convinced me."
"Actually, I've never been good at planning. The preparations I make are often based on very simple ideas."
As Guan Luoyang spoke, he stood up and walked outside the hall, "Simple, that's enough."
The plan he will make this time is actually very, very simple, just based on an idea.
It can be summed up in one sentence.
It is much easier for six stars to kill six stars than for seven stars to kill seven stars!
Guan Luoyang walked out of the hall and walked to the eastern edge of the Gongtong Abyss.
In the Iron Star Fortress opposite, King Heng and King Tian both noticed his actions.
This was the first time he had walked out of the stone palace on the mountainside in so many days.
"It should take another two days and three nights of mining before the resources in Gongtong Holy Land can be reduced to that limit."
King Heng's eyes flashed slightly, "It seems that as that time approaches, he will also come out to carefully confirm the progress."
In King Heng's mind, he didn't think Guan Luoyang would take action at this time.
With the current size of Gongtong Holy Land, if they take action, even if Guan Luoyang and Zi Yuanjun join forces, they will never be able to suppress it, let alone turn it into their own use.
Not to mention attacking this holy land in the abyss of thousands of miles, even if it is only in the surrounding area, exerting too strong force may over-stimulate this holy land and trigger a big explosion that shakes the world.
Guan Luoyang looked at Iron Star Castle across the abyss and smiled.
The next moment, his figure suddenly disappeared.
!
!
The King of Heaven opened his eyes, and King Heng suddenly stood up, and two earth-shaking momentums rose rapidly from the Iron Star Castle.
But in the next moment, they discovered that Guan Luoyang was not approaching Iron Star Fortress at all.
On the north side of Minshan Mountain, there are green peaks.
There are towering ancient trees and carpets in the forest. Master Boshan is leaning among them, leisurely and contented, as if he is waiting to watch a good show.
He was playing with a jade flute in his left hand and holding music scores in his right hand, browsing casually when his expression suddenly changed and a warning signal sounded.
The sun and moon seem to be retrograde, the sky and the earth seem to be completely turned over, light does not exist, and darkness does not exist.
Thousands of mountains and seas are leaning here!
Such a terrible feeling came at this moment.
A battle that swallowed up the mountains and rivers, and wiped out the world, happened on such an afternoon with the wind and the sun, the gentle mountains, and no one expected it...
Suddenly, it broke out!
