"Wait for me for a while and come back when I call you."
I am still in the palace, but not in the back cave.
If Lu Yuanshan rushed to the cave in a hurry and ended up not seeing Lu Ping in person, it would be difficult to explain.
System matters should be kept confidential for now, and there is no way to explain them clearly.
"Okay, Dad."
While Lu Yuanshan was waiting, Lu Ping controlled his consciousness and floated back to the cave in the back mountain where he was retreating.
"Okay, come here now."
"okay!"
After receiving the response, Lu Yuanshan immediately ran out of the hall, not even bothering to call his younger brothers and sisters. He wanted to see his father first.
"Dad, the baby is here."
Arriving outside Houshan Cave, Lu Yuanshan greeted him slightly excitedly, but did not dare to step inside and stretched his head to look into the cave.
However, due to the restriction and the dim light in the cave, he did not see Lu Ping's figure.
"Um."
Lu Ping replied.
"Father opens the bar and lets the child in?"
"No, just stand outside. It's not convenient to meet at the moment."
The physical body was dead, and only the consciousness and the system were left to coexist. He could not open the cave's restriction and let Lu Yuanshan in. He could not take the things in the cave out, which was very helpless.
"oh."
When Lu Yuanshan heard this, he didn't say much and just stopped outside the cave.
"Dad, are you coming out of seclusion soon?"
With a look of anticipation on his face, Lu Yuanshan took the lead in starting the topic: "How is your body recovering? Have you successfully broken through the Nascent Soul stage?"
If Lu Ping succeeds in retreat and breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage, it will undoubtedly be a great joy for the Qingshan Sect. All the problems faced by the Qingshan Sect can be easily solved.
An old Yuanying monster is considered a top monk in Lingxi Prefecture. What do you want?
"Still in seclusion and feeling ill."
Lu Ping responded calmly: "The Nascent Soul has not been condensed yet."
He also wanted to break through the Yuan Ying and come out of the seclusion, but it was not satisfactory and he was so frustrated that he couldn't even communicate face to face now.
Without waiting for Lu Yuanshan's reply, Lu Ping took the initiative to ask with full of doubts.
"Tell me, what happened to the sect during the thirty years I spent in seclusion."
In response to Lu Ping's question, Lu Yuanshan took a deep breath, guessing that Lu Ping would ask this, and was prepared to answer.
After clearing his thoughts, he began to talk about the ups and downs that had happened in the Qingshan Sect after Lu Ping went into seclusion.
The time was pulled back thirty years ago, when Lu Ping went into seclusion to continue his life. After hitting the Nascent Soul stage, the sect was not affected and everything was running in an orderly manner.
In the eyes of the outside world, there is still a Jindan Patriarch in the Qingshan Sect, who is an out-and-out behemoth, standing tall in Lushan County and not to be messed with.
This is also due to the fact that after returning to the sect from the ancient secret realm, Lu Ping did a good job of keeping the serious injury a secret, and only his three children and his wife knew about it.
The beginning of the sect's decline stemmed from a demonic chaos thirteen years ago.
Thirteen years ago, the Rakshasa Ghost Lord, the Blood Demon Taoist, and the Heavenly Corpse Taoist, known as the three demonic deities of Lingxi Prefecture, practiced evil arts, refined magic weapons, and led thousands of demon cultivators to surprise Lushan County, triggering a monstrous demonic chaos.
, many families were brutally wiped out.
The Qingshan Sect was in trouble and Chi Yu suffered a large number of demon cultivators who came to kill the sect, and the sect was completely defeated.
At the critical moment, Tianshu Academy took a strong action and killed two of the three Demon Dao Masters outside the Qingshan Sect. Only the Blood Demon Dao Ancestor did not hesitate to destroy his cultivation and fled to Lingxi Prefecture. Since then, he has not dared to show his face for a long time.
.
With the defeat of the three demonic masters, the remaining demonic cultivators were quickly cleared away, and the demonic chaos was finally subsided.
Although the Qingshan Sect was able to survive, it was severely damaged and its vitality was severely damaged.
This demonic chaos became the trigger for the Qingshan Sect's decline.
"The demonic chaos thirteen years ago caused a large number of disciples of the sect to fall under the hands of the three demon masters. As a result, the sect was fragmented and began to decline. It has been unable to breathe for many years."
Lu Yuanshan felt very uncomfortable as he recounted the bitter history of demonic chaos.
He once witnessed with his own eyes the only eight foundation-building monks in the sect who were brutally murdered and sacrificed by the Blood Demon Dao Ancestor. They became the dead souls in the Yin Banner of the Nine Evil Ghosts, and their end was miserable and tragic.
Eighty-nine percent of the members of the sect were lost, with only more than 300 people left to survive. This made it difficult for the sect to regain its strength, and it plummeted.
If it weren't for Tianshu Yuan's timely action, Qingshan Sect would have died thirteen years ago.
"Three Demonic Lords..."
Thinking of the crimes committed by the three Demon Lords, which almost caused the Qingshan Sect to be wiped out, Lu Ping suddenly felt an uncontrollable hatred in his heart.
At the same time, he also blamed himself very much, complaining that he should not have been in seclusion.
At that time, I was thinking that with the protection of Tianshu Yuan and his famous Jindan Patriarch, which sect in Lushan County would dare to take the idea of Qingshan Sect? Not even the entire Chu Kingdom Immortal Cultivation World.
In the realm of immortal cultivation in the Chu Kingdom, the Jindan Patriarchs were among a group of ceiling-level warriors, and their number could only be counted in the palm of a hand.
But who could have imagined that three giant golden elixir-level demon lords would suddenly attack Lushan County and almost uproot the Qingshan Sect.
This is completely unexpected.
Alas, but the matter has come to this, what can be done.
Now there is no such thing, I can only sigh in vain.
Lu Ping's mood was a bit depressed, so he didn't speak again for a long time.
Unable to see Lu Ping's figure and unable to feel Lu Ping's emotions, Lu Yuanshan waited for a long time before taking the initiative to break the calm and continue.
"After the end of the demonic chaos, three foundation-building sects and one crystallization sect were destroyed due to the demonic chaos. Lushan County was also abandoned for a long time. After more than ten years of development, it gradually recovered its vitality and rebuilt its homeland. From then on,
Coming out of the shadow of the demonic chaos."
"Because the Qingshan Sect's backbone was injured and its strength was greatly reduced, the surrounding sects took the opportunity to increase their power and poached many of our disciples. This caused a serious loss of Qi and blood of our sect and made matters worse."
"The Qinglian Mountain spiritual vein was also damaged in that demonic chaos, and its grade plummeted to the first level."
"In these years, even though we have rebuilt the sect and spent huge sums of money to cultivate spiritual veins, we have only cultivated the spiritual veins to the second-level low-grade."
"The spiritual energy of the second-order spiritual veins is limited and is not as good as the third-order and fourth-order spiritual veins of the surrounding sects, which greatly reduces the sect's attraction to the outside world."
"This means that for a long time in the future, not only will the sect be unable to recruit disciples, but a large number of disciples will join other sects. As a result, the sect's foundation will be greatly damaged and its talents will wither."
The Kingdom of Chu was vast and sparsely populated, with numerous sects, many of which were not established by the founding order and were not protected by Tianshu Yuan, but they were still a force that should not be underestimated.
Hearing that many Qingshan Sect disciples had left and switched to other sects, Lu Ping remained silent for a long time.
He couldn't interfere with this, and even if he could, he wouldn't interfere.
As people go to higher places, what monks compete for is the land of Dharma and wealth lovers. Lu Ping understands this very well. Tang Zhixian is a good example. He was willing to leave the Qingshan Sect for the sake of his future.
No longer going into the matter, Lu Ping continued to ask.
"I see that the strength of the sect is declining. Why has there not been another foundation-building monk in these years?"
He thought of his Taoist companion, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
"Where's your mother?"
"Mother, she..."
When Lu Ping's wife was mentioned, Lu Yuanshan's eyes suddenly became sore. This chapter has been completed!
