After hearing what Meng Zhou said, Chu Zheng's first reaction was not shock, but confusion.

"Brother, how do you say this?"

Meng Zhou stared at Chu Zheng for a while and suddenly said: "Actually, I should know this truth better than other practitioners!"

"What do I know?" Chu Zheng wondered.

"You have been with the Nuanyun Valley Professionals Association from beginning to end. You should have a deep understanding of the power of professionals after they become large-scale.

Then think about it, if you can get all the professionals from the Qingxuan Domain into the upcoming Jade Lake Fairy City, how powerful it will be?" Meng Zhou didn't whet Chu Zheng's appetite and directly revealed the answer to the mystery.

"Hiss~~" Chu Zheng gasped suddenly. The impact of this information on him was too great, making him a little confused and sluggish for a moment: "This... this... how could it be?"

"Why not?"

Meng Zhou sighed:

"Eighty years ago, when Qingxuanzong became the nominal lord of Qingxuan Domain, everyone has been waiting for Qingxuanzong to make a move!

Now, after eighty years of sharpening the knife, the knife is finally ready.

It's just that it's different from what everyone thinks.

On the contrary, destroying the Mo family with thunderous means is more in line with everyone's expectations."

Chu Zheng thought about it seriously and nodded in approval.

He is seventy-five years old and has experienced almost the entire Qingxuan Sect era.

Even counting from the time he entered the practice circle, he has experienced most of the Qingxuan Sect era.

So, at this point, his feelings are even deeper.

In the Qingxuan Territory, except among very close relatives and close friends, it is rarely discussed, but one topic that everyone will ponder is, "Qingxuan Zong, the nominal lord of the Qingxuan Territory,

Will it cause trouble? Surely it will? But when will it happen? How will it happen?"

As a member of the Qingxuan Realm, this is closely related to every practitioner, and we cannot help but think more about it.

Now, Qingxuanzong has finally taken off with great fanfare. It is not surprising, but it feels as if the boots have finally landed.

What is really surprising is that the way it is done is completely different from what everyone expected.

"But I still can't figure it out, why bother with casual cultivators like this?" Chu Zheng still shook his head to express his confusion.

Meng Zhoudao: "They are not deliberately targeting casual cultivators, this is just one aspect of their efforts to reshape the cultivation order of the entire Qingxuan Domain.

As for the impact on professionals, I guess there are several reasons.

Qingxuanzong probably felt that it was too easy for professionals to earn spiritual stones and lacked enough pressure, so they wanted to squeeze in and force them.

Then there’s the scale I’m talking about.

Nowadays, many professionals are scattered in various spiritual places. There are self-sufficient casual cultivators, and many belong to different forces.

On the one hand, efficiency is low, and on the other hand, communication between professionals has become difficult, as there are many man-made and geographical barriers.”

At first, Meng Zhou didn't think in this direction.

But Qingxuanzong's behavior these days made him full of doubts.

On the one hand, in the past, many foundation-building experts risked their lives to obtain the third-level treasures, but now they are put on the auction stage in large quantities by Qingxuan Sect. It seems that as long as you have the spirit stone, you will not worry about buying it.

arrival posture.

It is a fact that Qingxuanzong harvested a large number of spiritual stones through this.

But this move will inevitably create more and more powerful fake elixirs and even elixir-forming experts who are not under the Qingxuan Sect. This is also an indisputable fact.

Not to mention the larger number of second-level treasures including Foundation Establishment Pills.

Taking the Foundation Establishment Pill as a benchmark, when its price is really reduced to less than 12,000 low-grade spiritual stones, the number of Foundation Establishments in the Qingxuan Domain will increase dramatically, and the average strength of those veteran Foundation Establishments will also increase.

A big jump.

From this aspect, Qingxuan Sect is not very friendly towards the practitioners of non-direct lineage forces in Qingxuan Domain, at least it does not have much hatred or hostility.

Selecting and supporting the best among these new casual cultivators is even more powerful evidence.

But on the other hand, Meng Zhou also did not believe that the Qingxuan Sect had the heart of a Bodhisattva and wanted to send blessings and rain to all practitioners in the Qingxuan Domain, regardless of whether they were close or distant.

Meng Zhou was very puzzled by this and could not figure out the real intention of Qingxuanzong.

It was not until he was in the Hexin Building that Qingxuan Zhenzhen Hao Zhen casually mentioned a sentence that suddenly made him feel enlightened.

Many doubts about Qingxuanzong's actions were answered at once.

After listening to Meng Zhou's words, Chu Zheng fell into a long silence.

After a long time, he said in a difficult voice: "So, the association... is going to be over?!"

Chu Zheng did not question the source and reliability of the information disclosed by Meng Zhou. He only made deductions based on what Meng Zhou provided.

Then, he found helplessly that in the face of such a torrent, the professional association was like a simple toy that a child put together casually, with no resistance at all.

As soon as it rushes, it collapses.

Meng Zhou stared at Chu Zheng and slowly shook his head: "Brother, don't you think this is actually an opportunity for the association?"

Chu Zheng hurriedly asked: "Brother Zhou, are you saying that the association can still be saved?"

Meng Zhoudao: "Whether the association is finished or not, whether it is saved or not, depends not only on changes in the general trend, but in fact, it also depends on the choices of you and other people in power in the association!"

Chu Zheng was startled, "Brother, do you have any ideas? You might as well say it more clearly!"

"Brother, you said, if a large number of professionals in the Qingxuan Domain are concentrated in the Immortal City, wouldn't it be equivalent to a larger Nuanyun Valley?"

Chu Zheng's eyes lit up and he blurted out: "You mean, the model of the Professionals Association will be spread directly into the fairy city?"

But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Chu Zheng shook his head and said:

"Isn't this a fight with Qingxuanzong in the ring?

With our little ability, we can show off our prestige in Nuanyun Valley, but with our little arms and legs, how can we be different from Qingxuan Sect?!"

Meng Zhou shook his head and corrected:

"Brother, since you are a veteran of the association, why do you think that the association is trying to compete with the Qingxuan Sect?

With so many professionals gathered in Fairy City, in order to create a scale effect and achieve the high efficiency expected by Qingxuan Sect, it is impossible for them to go their own way without overall planning, right?

You always need a coordinating helper, right?!"

After listening to Meng Zhou's words, Chu Zheng's eyes brightened again, but he soon shook his head again and said:

I understand what you mean. Do you want the association to play this role?

But isn’t this a bit of wishful thinking?

It’s not like Qingxuan Sect doesn’t have such an important responsibility, so why should we leave it to us?!”

Meng Zhou shook his head: "Professionals, especially those with higher levels, are more professional.

If a layman guides an expert, it will be more likely to cause problems and make jokes, and the results will be very bad.

Therefore, this helper can only be found from within the professional group!"

Chu Zheng thought for a while and nodded in agreement with this statement.

Meng Zhou asked again: "One more thing, have you forgotten the nature of the fairy city?"

"Nature? What nature?" Chu Zheng was confused and stunned.

"The Immortal City is not owned by the Qingxuan Sect alone, but is built by inviting all qualified participants in the Qingxuan Domain.

Ownership is also shared by everyone!

Qingxuan Sect may have trained a large number of high-level professional monks in Qinglin Peak, but do you think Qingxuan Sect will use up nearly a hundred years of accumulation in Qinglin Peak in order to run the fairy city well?"

Chu Zheng fell into deep thought.

"Isn't it just that Qingxuan Sect has attracted so many forces to join in order to legitimately make other forces bleed and contribute?"

"So, I conclude that in all matters related to Immortal City, Qingxuanzong will try his best to avoid directly solving the problem personally."

Having said this, Meng Zhou dipped his fingers in some water, randomly drew vertical and horizontal lines on the table, and drew circles where they intersected each other.

"In the eyes of Qingxuan Zong, Qingxuan Territory is a chessboard, Immortal City is even more a chessboard, and all the forces in Qingxuan Territory that are qualified to enter the game are chess pieces.

What Qingxuanzong wants to do now is to be a chess player, not a player in the game!

Whenever possible, they will use the rules on the chessboard and use the chess pieces in the game to solve problems!"

Chu Zheng stared at the water stains on the table, "So, what do you mean, let the association work hard to enter the game and become a valuable chess piece in this game?"

Meng Zhou nodded.

Chu Zheng did not comment on Meng Zhou's suggestion itself, but simply said: "With our current strength, we are not qualified to enter the game even if we stand on tiptoe!"

Meng Zhou said: "This is what I said at the beginning. Whether the association can seize this opportunity and leapfrog depends on both the general trend and you!"

"How do you say this?"

"The professional atmosphere in Nuanyun Valley has been around for a long time. It's impossible for everyone to be stuck in Qi training and level one professional level, right?"
