After the ceremony was completed, everyone was very happy. Under the guidance of the disciples of the Three Saints Sect, everyone exited the Moon Lake and entered the palace to have a banquet. Except for the four temples of Longxiang, Jiedi, Lingtai, and Grottoes, all the Taoist sects gave the Three Saints Sect a face. After Teng Shangyun waited for a round of greetings, he took the time to say goodbye. They could see clearly that the joining of Elder Shen had given the Three Saints Sect even more power and momentum. Even the Buddhist sect had to stay away from the spotlight for a while. However, the excitement belonged to others and they had nothing. This trip was just for personal gain and nothing to gain. What good.
The Three Saints Sect had no intention of staying. Teng Shangyun had something on his mind. After paying respect to some of his close comrades, he withdrew from the hall. After a while, Xiao Yazhi led Shen Yuanqiong to Lingxiao Pavilion, followed the narrow wooden ladder to the third floor, and entered the quiet room to talk secretly with the master. The door was locked, and all four doors were prohibited. Xiao Yazhi took a few steps back and stood on the railing. Listening to the noise and commotion in the distance, her heart surged, as if she were in a dream. She knew what Master and Elder Shen were talking about. This was a deal that had already been negotiated. The Sansheng Sect would turn Qi Fanguan into a "side sect" and give Master Shen the title of elder of the sect in exchange for "Kaiyuan Master". "Soul Refining Technique", if this technique is as rumored, it can refine the remaining Taoist techniques in the bones and strengthen the soul, then the Three Saints Sect will not suffer.
But she couldn't figure out why Shen Yuanqiong deliberately leaked the news. Although he was the first to discover the secret of the bones, the "Kaiyuan Soul Refining Technique" was created by Mu Yuanxiong. The master led his colleagues to the door. To Mu Yuanxiong's surprise, his expression did not seem to be fake. It was obviously Shen Yuan Qiong took matters into his own hands and did not communicate with him. What is he planning? If it were anyone else, the Three Saints Sect could have used force to force him to reveal the inside story, but these methods could not be used on Shen Yuanqiong. Ji Danqing and Hu Weiyong fell under his sword one after another, which had already sounded the alarm in advance.
Xiao Yazhi sighed quietly.
The two talked in secret for several hours, until the sun set and twilight closed, then they opened the door of the quiet room. Xiao Yazhi stepped forward and saw the master in high spirits, with a hint of excitement in his eyes. It was obvious that he had gained a lot, and for some reason, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Teng Shangyun ordered his disciples to send Elder Shen to the cave to rest, and by the way, he took the list of disciples and the inventory catalog and gave them to Elder Shen for a look. Xiao Yazhi agreed, guessing that Elder Shen would not return empty-handed, so it was appropriate to select a few disciples and take away a batch of supplies. Since the master left this matter to him, he had to carefully consider it. Fan.
Watching his apprentice lead Elder Shen away from home, Teng Shangyun let out a long sigh of relief and felt very confident. He had obtained the "Kaiyuan Soul Refining Technique". Needless to say, the benefits of strengthening the soul. Although there may not be any obvious improvement in Taoism, the same supernatural power means , but when used, it can be completely transformed and its power doubled. But to be cautious, he did not start practicing immediately. Instead, he invited Mu Yuanxiong, the elder of the Kaiyuan Sect, to have a long and frank discussion with him over the night on the "Kaiyuan Soul Refining Technique".
Mu Yuanxiong came to Huanhu Mountain one day in advance and lived in seclusion, trying to avoid people's eyes and ears. However, insiders still looked at him frequently, with strange and meaningful expressions. He knew that the lion opened his mouth and offended the public, but he did not turn back. , can only hold on. He had some guesses about the inside story of Sansheng Sect's recruitment of Shen Yuanqiong, but he didn't dare to confirm it. He finally waited until the end of the ceremony, drank three glasses and two glasses of light wine, and was about to leave quietly, but was left by Xiao Yazhi. When he came down, he said that the banquet was not over yet, the master couldn't get away for the time being, and he had other important matters to discuss, so he asked Elder Mu to wait a moment.
Xiao Yazhi’s master was Teng Shangyun, the acting head of the Three Saints Sect. Mu Yuanxiong did not want to refute his reputation, so he had to wait patiently, saying that he would wait until night fell, and then Xiao Yazhi came to invite him, saying repeatedly Apologize, very low profile. Mu Yuanxiong did not bother to embarrass the junior, and followed Xiao Yazhi to the Lingxiao Pavilion. He entered the quiet room and faced Teng Shangyun face to face. Unexpectedly, as soon as the other party opened his mouth, he spread the "Kaiyuan Soul Refining Technique" on the table. Mu Yuan's ambition was as clear as a mirror, but he was short-handed and could not blame Shen Yuanqiong because he had not agreed in advance.
Now that Shen Yuanqiong has handed over the "Kaiyuan Soul Refining Technique" to Teng Shangyun, if he keeps hiding it, he will offend the Three Saints Sect in vain. He simply sold the other party a favor and told Teng Shangyun everything he had learned about refining Taoism. Teng Shangyun compared the two and confirmed that the "Kaiyuan Soul Refining Technique" produced by Shen Yuanqiong was intact. Mu Yuanxiong's insights were based on experience, which could save him many detours. While overjoyed, He did not treat the other party unfairly, leaving Mu Yuanxiong to study in Huanhu Mountain, and the bones needed for practice were naturally presented by the Three Saints Sect.
The two booklets for Shen Yuanqiong's inspection were very fresh ink. They were obviously
I specially copied it again and deleted some important items. The Three Saints Sect did not hide it, it was all on the surface. Shen Yuanqiong did not feel dissatisfied. He took a rough look at it, randomly selected seven disciples, and circled a bunch of them. The materials needed for practice are given to Xiao Yazhi and she arranges them. Xiao Yazhi read the roster and catalogue, and Elder Shen was merciful. The qualifications of the selected disciples were only above average, and none of them were under the master or the elder's sect. It was normal for her to ask for things in the treasury. She could make the decision without having to see the master. But then I thought about it. In addition to being an elder, he also fished out a valuable treasure from the moon lake. Unfortunately, he couldn't make it public, so he could only suffer the loss of being mute. As a "treasure", the sect suffered a big loss.
Teng Shangyun went into seclusion for seven days, refining all the Taoism remaining in a piece of demon bone. He felt refreshed and refreshed, which was of great benefit. He stepped out of the quiet room and called Xiao Yazhi first. He learned that Elder Shen had left for Qi Fan Temple and left a letter behind. When he opened it and read it, it was nothing more than a few words of thanks and farewell, both salty and mild. He thoughtfully folded the letter and put it in his arms, pondered for a moment, and ordered Xiao Yazhi to invite the elders to the main hall to discuss matters, and she could stay and listen.
Xiao Yazhi's heart skipped a beat, and she guessed that there were two things that the master had discussed. One was to remove the word "Dai" from the acting head, so that he could take charge of the Three Saints Sect, and the other was to pass down the "Kaiyuan Soul Refining Technique" to win over the people. Elders, even if the Shadow Taoist wakes up from a coma in the future, he will not be able to shake the master's position. He can only knock out his teeth and swallow blood, and take a back seat. Times have changed, and without the "Kaiyuan Soul Refining Technique", even if Ying Taoist is unwilling to give in, how can he be a master?
The Sansheng Sect made such a big show, and the insiders of the Taoist sects saw it in their eyes and remembered it in their hearts. Later, they learned that Elder Mu of the Kaiyuan Sect stayed in Huanhu Mountain after observing the ceremony, and had not returned to the sect for a long time, so he gradually found out A little flavor. On this day, Liu Yeyang, the leader of the Luoshen Sect, came to Qifan Temple and visited the Master Shen Guan. He tentatively asked about the "Kaiyuan Soul Refining Kung Fu". Unexpectedly, he learned that Mu Yuanxiong founded this practice by Master Shen Guan. Inspire. What makes Sect Leader Liu sigh is that all the inner disciples of Qifan Temple practice the "Kaiyuan Soul Refining Technique", including the seven disciples who were recently begged from the Three Saints Sect, without exception.
Liu Yeyang finally understood that the ceremony not long ago was actually a transaction between the Three Saints Sect and Qi Fanguan.
