As soon as Yuan Ming stepped onto the magic circle in front of the statue of Master Shura, two rays of real red light shot out from the statue's eyes and swept over him. "Yuan Ming was shocked at first. He quickly looked inside his body and found that there was nothing strange about his body. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.
But then, the voice of Master Shura came from the statue: "When I was young, I became a disciple of the Chaotian Sect. I thought that the sect was powerful and would have a worry-free path to immortality in the future. Who would have expected that a sudden change would cause the sect to become a thousand-year-old sect?" It will be destroyed in an instant. Woohoo! When I first set foot on the foundation, I was unable to stop the building from falling. I could only witness my brothers die in front of me. This is a great regret in my life. If you can overthrow the building in three opportunities, it will end. Whatever I shake, you can get the treasure I left behind."
Yuan Ming disappeared in the magic circle as soon as his voice fell. Everyone was startled at first, and then immediately looked at the talisman in Fairy Jin Xi's hand. However, in the next moment, a blue flame suddenly ignited on the talisman, and it took only a moment to burn out. The talisman burned into ashes... As soon as Master Shura finished speaking, before Yuan Ming could react, he suddenly felt a blur in front of his eyes. After a while, the sky and the earth spun around, he found that he had appeared in a small wing, wearing all the clothes on his body. Although there was no change, all the mana in his body was suppressed to the level of the early stage of foundation building.
"Could this be the Chaotian Sect where Master Shura lived back then?" When he thought about this, he tried to use his magic power to break through the limitations of his cultivation. But at this moment, he felt a wave of heartache for no reason. Ji, until he gave up the idea, the feeling of Ji in his heart gradually disappeared. This restriction seems to have also acted on his soul. Whenever the consciousness he releases exceeds the scope of the foundation building period, it will also trigger the Heart Season.
Yuan Ming didn't know whether his behavior here would be seen by Wan Qihong and others, so he did not try to use soul cultivation methods, but judging from what happened before, the restrictions should be the same.
That is to say, he cannot use any cultivation ability that Master Shura does not have at this period. After Yuan Ming tentatively deduced this conclusion, he calmed down and began to observe the situation in the room he was in. This wing was not big, but inside The decoration is particularly simple and elegant, quite similar to his previous residence in the capital.
There are many calligraphy and paintings in the house, all of which are excellent works from Yuan Ming's point of view, and they are all signed by a person named "Zhen Luo"; in addition to the calligraphy and paintings, there is also a storage bag placed in the side room. "In addition to spiritual stones and some regular practice books, there are only a few not-so-exquisite magic weapons, among which only one ink-colored flying knife is top grade, and the rest are below average grade.
Yuan Ming took out the magic weapon and got familiar with it briefly. Although he can't perform soul cultivation techniques now, the strength of his soul is still at the level of a love witch. He quickly mastered the control of high-grade magic weapons like an arm and a finger," he practiced again. After a while, he put the magic weapon away.
Then, Yuan Ming looked through the books in the storage bag. To his surprise, all the books related to the exercises were blank, as if they deliberately did not want others to see them. Obviously, the time and space he is currently in should have been created by Master Shura through some kind of supernatural power, and the rules are naturally set by him. It is not that he has truly traveled to that past.
However, except for the parts other than the exercises, the book is very detailed, especially the content about his current identity, which seems to be specially marked and explained; as Yuan Ming expected, at this time, he was indeed in the "Chaotian Sect" "In this sect, there is an ancestor who is in the middle stage of Yuanying and is in charge. He is the most powerful person in the Zhao Kingdom and his reputation is far-reaching.
There are twenty-one peaks in the sect, and each peak has a peak master in the Dan-formation stage. They usually ignore secular affairs and are only responsible for cultivating and teaching their respective disciples. The monks in the foundation-building stage and the Qi-refining stage are further divided into There are three categories: personal disciples, registered disciples and secular disciples.
The first two are all under the sect of the Lord of the Peak. Apart from the tasks given by the Lord of the Peak, they do not need to manage any mundane affairs. The difference between the two is only the number of times they can see the Peak Master and the number of times they see the Peak Master. How much is the monthly salary?
The secular disciples are mainly responsible for handling various chores of the sect. Among them, those who perform well can be promoted to registered disciples after completing a certain number of years and showing acceptable cultivation talents, and can focus on cultivation from then on.
Among secular disciples, because there are halls within the sect such as the Alchemy Hall and the Weapon Refining Hall, there are hall masters and deacons. Master Shura, played by Yuan Ming now, is a direct disciple of Lingxing Peak. The master of this peak is a pill-forming monk named "Shen Lingyun". Since he has just entered pill-forming, Lingxing Peak was created from scratch, so there was only one direct disciple of Master Shura on the entire peak.
"Junior Brother Zhen, get up, get up! Many sects will come to watch this year's ceremony. The Deacon Hall has issued many reception tasks. Not only are the rewards generous, but the requirements are not high. I have reserved two for you. Come out and get it quickly."
Suddenly there was a roar outside the house. Yuan Ming groaned for a moment, then stepped forward and opened the door. In front of the door, a fat man with a stout body like a ball was happily waving the jade slip in his hand. Yuan Ming looked at him, and suddenly Master Shura's voice came to his ears, explaining the fat man's name and identity.
"Shen Peng, who was in the early stage of foundation building, studied under Changle Peak, and has always been on good terms with me."
When Shen Peng saw Yuan Ming coming out, he immediately handed over the jade slip in his hand with a smile, and said: "Here, junior brother, these two tasks are specially selected by me, and they are all from large sects. If they are done well, It would be a big deal to have a relationship with those talented people."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Shen, for your trouble. It's just that I haven't attended a few grand ceremonies. I'm afraid I'm not equipped to handle the big sects. It would be bad if I messed up the matter." Yuan Ming shook his head and politely rejected Shen Peng's proposal. .
"Harm? Look at what you said! The sect establishment ceremony is held every hundred years. Except for those who have been in trouble for a long time to build the foundation, it is not the first time for any of us to participate in it. Besides, the reception task is to put it bluntly, that is, to help people from other sects. Lead the way and communicate with them about the history of our sect. You usually love reading ancient books, so this task is not difficult for you at all." Shen Peng waved Fei Dudu's big hand and said.
"I appreciate Senior Brother Shen's kindness, but there have been some problems in my cultivation recently, and I am really upset. I always feel that something big is going to happen, and I really can't bear such a big responsibility." Yuan Ming still refused.
"You were bored in the house every day when you were young, so you always thought about these things. You said how long we have known each other, but I have never seen you smile or have a sad face all day long, you fairy It's too boring to practice." Seeing that Yuan Ming was not very interested, Shen Peng couldn't help but said.
Yuan Ming wanted to ask him about Master Shura's youth, but he was afraid that if he spilled the beans and aroused suspicion, he could only respond silently.
"Then take care of yourself and remember to drink more hot water." Seeing this, Shen Peng lost interest in continuing to chat with Yuan Ming. After a few simple chats, he left.
Yuan Ming watched Shen Peng's retreating figure, but he was thinking about what Master Shura said when he stepped into the magic circle. The time he was at now should be the eve of the destruction of Chaotian Sect, and the eve of the destruction of Biluo Cave. , there are signs such as Ulu lurking, recruiting people at dawn, etc.
As for Chaotian Sect, once a sect with mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators was destroyed, there would definitely be no movement in the secrets. Just like the battle of Biluo Cave, it broke out when a group of disciples gathered. From here to there, Chaotian The war that will destroy the sect may break out during the sect's grand ceremony, but it is still unknown. The time when it is least likely to happen is when people are most likely to take it lightly.
What role do the sects invited to participate play here, are they enemies or allies? Yuan Ming was not sure. The information he had obtained now was too little, and it might not be enough to deduce the whole situation. After thinking about it, he finally set his sights on the top of the mountain where his residence was located.
Soon after, in Shen Lingyun's cave, Yuan Ming stood in front of Shen Lingyun who had just finished his training, raised his hands and said: "Master, my disciple has been restless recently. He always feels that something big is going to happen. Last night, the black disciple I woke up in the middle of the night, but it was a dream that when the grand ceremony of Yingli Zong was being held, a powerful enemy suddenly descended from the sky and disrupted the ceremony. The brothers fought desperately, and although they repelled the powerful enemy, they suffered heavy casualties; I thought it was just a nightmare. , but when I was practicing today, the scene in my dream appeared repeatedly in front of me, and the disciple was really uneasy, so he came to report it to the master."
"I think about it every day and dream about it at night. You dreamed that the sect was destroyed. Could it be that you saw something wrong during the day? Shen Lingyun did not take the disciple's words as a joke. Instead, he thought about it seriously and said this Come on, this disciple really feels that something is not right with some of the fellow disciples in the sect. If I really want to say something, I can't explain it." Yuan Ming looked distressed.
"In that case, you take my token to the Changle Peak Deacon Hall and say that under my order, you want to check the recent travel records of all disciples. You can find out the ones you think are suspicious and bring them back." As Shen Lingyun spoke, he turned his palm and took out a token. Yuan Ming was pleasantly surprised to see Shen Lingyun so cheerful, but there was still a trace of doubt in his heart.
"Master, with all due respect, aren't you afraid that this is really just a nightmare for your disciple?" He asked cautiously.
"There is nothing wrong with you. What's more, we are only investigating now and have not tried to accuse anyone. Even if the investigation turns out to be in vain, nothing will be lost. Besides, I know your temperament. When I took you out of Zhen's house, I I just said that you will be my only successor and my most trusted disciple." Shen Lingyun smiled.
Yuan Ming saw the "kind and sincere smile on Shen Lingyun's face, and was deeply touched in his heart." He immediately bowed to Shen Lingyun solemnly: "Master, don't worry, this disciple will do his best to ensure that the sect's ceremony goes smoothly." worry."
"Then I'll wait and see." Shen Lingyun nodded, his eyes full of expectation.
