Chapter 140 [Report and Determination]
Old Lu Shangshu's room was not luxurious, on the contrary, it looked very simple. Perhaps he had lived long enough and had already seen through the prosperity of the world and reached the state of returning to nature.
After Ge Xian entered his room, he felt an ethereal state of mind. This was the first time he had discovered this state of mind in a mortal. Even though he had entered the supreme realm, he still had not reached the state of mind.
"Father, these two are the Ninth Princess and the Tianmu Sect's protector elder Ge Xian. This elder Ge is extraordinary in strength, and his son is far inferior to him." Lu Ziang's attitude was rare and low, causing the old man who had closed his eyes to rest in peace. Then he opened his eyes.
He looked at Lu Ziang with comfort and encouragement in his eyes, and then looked at Ge Xian with burning eyes. On the contrary, Nangong Wanhua was ignored by him.
In front of this Lu Shangshu, no matter how close the emperor or the country is, even King Lu can't show anything in front of him.
"What a young monk!" The old minister could sense Ge Xian's age at a glance. At his current state, he is the most sensitive to vitality. Even if some monks use other means, even if they swallow heavenly materials and earthly treasures, that kind of vitality is still incomparable with normal vitality.
Ge Xian naturally felt the other party's observation and testing. He accepted the other party's gaze calmly, and then said: "Old Shangshu, the princess and I came here. We don't want to ask about the affairs of the court. We just want to rely on morality and justice. Let me ask, do all the princes turn a blind eye to the underground pastures of the Bliss Sect, which uses the common people as food and tramples on their dignity?"
Feeling Ge Xian's determination, the old minister's eyes became clearer and clearer. He looked at Nangong Wanhua next to him and asked, "Do you want to uphold justice?"
"We just want to save innocent people, the people of Lu, no, the people of any country should not become anyone's food. As a monk, we are supported by mortals, and most of them are born from mortals, but now they are poisoning and killing mortals Come to practice and gain immortality. Such practice is actually a demonic way. It has long been no different from those in the demon world. Monks in the fairy world should fight against it together." At this moment, Ge Xian expressed what he had always insisted on in his heart. He found that he was actually the same as those in the demon world. Most monks are different, especially in their attitude towards mortals.
This may have a lot to do with the fact that he is still young. If time goes by, he is not sure whether he will become like other monks and no longer pity the common people, but at least for now, he will do his best for the common people. Only in this way can he live up to his attachment to the world.
"You are the first monk I have met who regards mortals as so important. To be honest, I don't want to believe it because I have seen too many people who regard ordinary people as fish and meat." The old minister's eyes showed loneliness and Sad, not knowing what touched his heartstrings.
Seeing this, Nangong Wanhua took the opportunity to say: "Master Shangshu, the Paradise Sect has long been corrupted and degenerated, and the underground ranch has become its crime. The Dongyang incident this time is really an opportunity. We have visited Zhennan King and Ci before. Xin'an, although King Zhennan did not agree, I believe that as long as it is a big plan against the Paradise Sect, the Evil Punishment Sect behind it will not sit idly by. Cixin'an is very promising, but now it is the Great Desolate Sect that is most needed. Attitude."
The old man laughed, looked at Nangong Wanhua, and said, "Your Highness, do you know what you are talking about and what you are doing?"
"I know that expelling the Paradise Sect and replacing the spokesperson of the royal family, isn't this what the Lu Kingdom has done for the past three hundred years?" Nangong Wanhua's words were filled with a hint of ridicule, and the old minister was choked by her and was speechless for a moment.
Ge Xian came to the rescue and said: "Master Shangshu, the Paradise Sect is already angry and resentful. In addition, the current strength is not as good as before, so I am willing to assist Master Shangshu, together with Cixin Temple and the Punishing Evil Sect, to expel the Paradise Sect from the State of Lu. It is so vicious. , the sect that commits brutal acts is not worthy of remaining in the State of Lu, does Master Shangshu think so?"
"Your Highness, since you keep saying you want to deal with the Bliss Sect, we can't trust you. Unless you hand in a letter of surrender, how about we talk about cooperation?" the old minister said slyly.
Nangong Wanhua glanced at Ge Xian and saw him nodding solemnly, so she said, "Okay, it's settled. I wonder what the old minister wants us to do?"
"You will know in three days. I declare that there is only one opportunity. Once missed, there will be no chance to cooperate again. In fact, with the strength of the three of us, we are somewhat sure of expelling the Bliss Sect. You are now asking to join. It's better to add some superfluous things first." The old minister served tea to see the guests off, and the two of them resigned knowingly.
Lu Ziang sent the two of them out the back door very diligently, especially towards Ge Xian. He felt a sense of sympathy for each other. He wanted to find time to ask him for advice on how to practice spiritual consciousness. Ge Xian did not expect that this little Lu would be in love. Shangshu is a cultivator.
After visiting the three important figures, Ge Xian and Nangong Wanhua did not return to the palace immediately. Instead, they came to a villa outside Lu City. This was a relatively secret private territory, and it was not in the name of the Ninth Princess.
At dusk, Ge Xian and Nangong Wanhua took baths respectively and went to the highest point of the villa, a pavilion, where servants had already arranged a table of fine wine and delicacies.
The lives of monks are often very austere and they do not pay attention to enjoyment. However, there are also a small number of monks who pay great attention to enjoyment and even indulge in extravagance and lust, but they easily lose their Taoism.
The two of them did it occasionally, just to relax.
"The scenery here is very beautiful, and the spiritual energy is quite abundant." Ge Xian was very emotional. In any place in the spiritual world, the abundance of spiritual energy was far beyond that of the human world. He even doubted whether the spiritual world would be the same as the human world. All the spiritual energy was possessed, which led to such a result.
"Brother Ge must have never seen what true spiritual energy is. I used to practice in Miaokong Mountain. Once every ten years, I have the opportunity to enter a place called the Jade Barrier. The spiritual energy there is ten times stronger than the outside world. Even twenty times, or even more." Nangong Wanhua's words shocked Ge Xian, who never expected that there was such a terrifying spiritual energy content in the spiritual world.
He had studied it before, and later Murong Fei also roughly calculated it.
The spiritual energy in the human world only accounts for one ten thousandth of the total composition of the air at most. With the assistance of the spirit gathering array, it can only be increased to close to one percent.
But in the spiritual world, the content can reach 1% almost everywhere. If the jade barrier is true, wouldn't it mean that the aura content inside can reach 10% or 20%, or even more?
This was something he couldn't even imagine. If he practiced in such an environment, he felt that it would be a kind of happiness and enjoyment.
He simply wanted to ask Nangong Wanhua about the emerald barrier. After some small talk, the food and wine were almost gone. When he came back to his senses, there was already a starry sky above his head.
The emerald barrier is equivalent to a preserved ancient spiritual world. It was discovered thousands of years ago. Later, hundreds of top supreme powerhouses in the spiritual world jointly transformed it into a closed barrier. It was first used every day. It opens once every hundred years.
Later, as the top strong men fought for various resources in the Emerald Barrier, the Emerald Barrier was greatly damaged. In the end, the surviving strong men decided to close the barrier to thousands of people. Year.
Thousands of years ago, the barrier was restored to a certain extent and regained its vitality, but an accident also occurred.
All high-level monks who have reached the advanced stage of supreme cultivation will be severely rejected when entering the barrier, and may even be seriously injured, which greatly shocks the high-level monks.
At the same time, they also discovered that ordinary monks whose cultivation was not at the advanced stage of the Supreme Stage could easily enter without being affected.
After many attempts, the senior monks had to admit that they had lost the chance to enter the emerald barrier, so they placed their hopes on the young monks.
Simply, the two worlds of immortals and demons, as well as the major forces in the cultivation world of Taoyuan Continent, regard the jade barrier as a battlefield for training the juniors, and at the same time, it is also a treasure land for the juniors to seize various rare resources within the barrier.
The barrier opens once every ten years and lasts for three months before the entrance disappears. If you miss your chance, you'll have to wait until the next decade.
I heard that there are not only all kinds of rare herbs, spiritual fruits, spiritual beasts, etc. in the barrier, but also many highly poisonous herbs that can cause serious changes in people's minds, and there are also huge and terrifying mountains. Monsters, of course, the most terrifying ones are the monks who enter the barrier. They are fighting each other endlessly for resources. Just like those top supreme strongmen back then, there is always no shortage of killing each other.
However, it is not easy to enter the Jade Barrier. First, the age must not exceed a hundred years old, and then the cultivation level must reach Innate. After that, you must go through internal selection and external selection. The number of places is limited and will be held one year in advance. Different from the sect competition, this kind of selection sometimes seems more cruel and even life-threatening.
Ge Xian has not heard about this from the Tianmu Sect. It seems that the opportunity to enter the Jade Barrier is not available to all sects. It is estimated that at least the sect's power must reach the first level, otherwise it will not be able to get a place at all, and even a single Not even informed.
Nangong Wanhua was too drunk and was helped by the maid to rest. Ge Xian became more and more sober as he drank, feeling as if he had really turned into a drunkard.
He simply took out his short bow, a spiritual weapon, and shot an arrow into the starry sky. Then he stepped on the lever and lifted up into the sky, turning into a rainbow light and chasing the arrow. He overlooked the city of Lu ten miles away. Under the night, It's like a big black dragon entrenched, opening its big black mouth, as if waiting for anyone who dares to challenge it.
Ge Xian finally caught up with the arrow, stepped on it, and hovered in the air. At this time, his mood was a little complicated, and he remembered the scenes he saw in the underground pasture that day. Mortals were kept in captivity by the disciples of the Paradise Sect, and were constantly being raped. Those monks sucked the essence of life, but these members of the Paradise Sect relied on their status and status to enjoy immortality safely.
"Such immortality is disgraceful to a gentleman, I will kill him!" Ge Xian drew his bow and arrow again and shot an arrow towards the distance of Lucheng.
Suddenly the arrow turned into a bright meteor, streaking across the night sky of Lucheng, making many people feel this powerful will.
