Chapter 57: The Stick Holder

In the "Liangtian Pavilion" in Zhending Mountain.

Hearing Xu Qingzhi's words, Taoist Shouzhen couldn't help but feel troubled.

'Do you want to open this mountain gate?'

The ‘Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect’ came with thirteen thousand sects eagerly. If the mountain gate is opened, will they take advantage of it and sneak in?

With the power shown at this moment, once he has evil intentions, Zhending Mountain will be razed to the ground in an instant.

But if the mountain-protecting array cannot be opened, wouldn’t the ‘Innate Yiqi Southern Sect’ just have an excuse to refuse to take the oath?

Suddenly, Taoist Shouzhen was in a dilemma.

While he was hesitating, a pale golden light flashed beside him. Lord Shouzheng, wearing a purple-striped Bagua fairy dress and a look of defeat, quietly appeared.

"Ahem~~"

One hundred and twenty years ago, Taoist Master Baoxu was attacked by Banxia Taoist of Sun Moon Star Palace and fell. Afterwards, Tao Te Sect was rebuilt and Taoist Shouzheng became the new leader.

Sixty years ago, Lord Shouzheng Dao and Lord Jiuren of the ‘Xiantian Yiqi Nan Sect’ met in the void. After a fight, the two were seriously injured.

Since then, Taoist Shouzheng has been recuperating from his injuries in the secret realm of the sect, and all matters in the sect, big and small, have been handed over to Taoist Shouzheng.

The attack of the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect' was so fierce and powerful that Shouzheng Daojun who was in seclusion could not help but be alarmed. Seeing that his junior brother Shouzhen hesitated at the opportunity, he had no choice but to drag his injured body out of the seclusion.

After coughing a few times, Lord Shouzhengdao raised his voice and spoke.

“Since the ‘Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect’ and all of you are here to discuss the invasion of enemies from outside the territory, how can we, as the organizer of this operation, close our doors.

However, our ‘Liangtian Pavilion’ is simple and small, so I’m afraid we won’t be able to receive too many distinguished guests, so each sect can just send representatives.”

Without waiting for Xu Qingzhi and others to reply, Lord Shouzhengdao then issued an order:

"Give me the order:

Close the 'One Element Chain Empty Sequence Array' and open the mountain gate to welcome guests!"

"Please obey the teachings of the Master!"

After the promise was made, one hundred and twenty-nine thousand and six hundred pale golden light curtains quickly retracted, rushed back into the ground nodes of Zhending Mountain and disappeared.

Like a woman whose clothes are unbuttoned, Mount Zhending appears defenseless.

But if you look at it from another angle, Zhending Mountain is the home ground of the 'Taode Sect'. There are countless restrictions and formations, plus millions of disciples. It is no exaggeration to call it a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.

At this time, Mr. Shouzhengdao handed the problem back to Xu Qingzhi.

Facing the cross-examination, Xu Qingzhi smiled slightly, cupped his hands and saluted:

"It turns out that it was Master Shouzheng in person, but Wushuang was a little rude."

After a brief pause, Xu Qingzhi continued:

"Guests are welcome to host. Since Master Shouzheng invites you, Wushuang won't be polite."

Immediately afterwards, Xu Qingzhi turned around and spoke.

"Everyone, there is an invasion from a foreign enemy. Since we are people from this realm, we should resist with all our strength.

I order each of the large and small sects of the ‘Southern Alliance’ to send a representative to follow me into the mountain!”

Many of the primordial gods from the thirteen thousand sects bowed at the same time and solemnly agreed.

"Follow the decree of Master Wushuang!"

The unanimous shouts of tens of thousands of True Monarchs of Yuanshen shook the sky, directly causing changes in the vitality of the heaven and earth within thousands of miles nearby.

In an instant, I saw the changes in the sky and the earth, the shadows of the sun, moon and stars appearing out of thin air, starlight falling from the sky, golden lotuses emerging from the ground, and endless visions revealed.

In Zhending Mountain, the expressions of representatives of more than six thousand sects of the ‘Dao Sect Alliance’ changed when they heard this.

They were surprised not only by the overwhelming response of the tens of thousands of Yuanshen True Monarchs, but also by the obedient attitude of these thirteen thousand sects towards the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect'.

They are also members of the 'Dao Sect Alliance', but the 'Dao Sect' does not have strong constraints on each sect and is at best a loose alliance group.

It can be seen from the attitudes of the various sects in the 'Southern Sect Alliance' that they have clearly formed an orderly and strict discipline and hierarchy.

We are all people who have been cultivating for hundreds to thousands of years. How can we not understand how huge the gap will be between the two once a war breaks out.

Mr. Shouzhengdao clasped his left hand in his sleeve. He was also shocked by such a magnificent scene.

The cracked cheek twitched uncontrollably, and he responded in a deep voice:

"Invite the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect' and fellow Taoists from various sects to enter the 'Liangtian Pavilion' to discuss strategies to defeat the enemy!"

...

A quarter of an hour later.

In ‘Liangtian Pavilion’.

Nearly 20,000 cultivators in the Yuan Shen realm live together in the same hall. This kind of scene has never happened in the Azure Realm in the past nine thousand years since the immortal cultivators left the realm.

Lord Shouzhengdao was sitting in the high chair, but he felt that the chair was shaking under his buttocks.

Looking down from where he was, the 'Daozong Alliance' and the 'Nanzong Alliance' were clearly distinct, and they were full of wariness and distrust between them.

However, the more than 6,000 people of the "Dao Zong Alliance" who each wore their own sect costumes seemed so loose and weak among the 13,000 neat white robes.

After calming down, Mr. Shouzhengdao turned his attention to Xu Qingzhi.

This was the first time he saw the legendary most beautiful woman in the world. Even after thousands of years of cultivation, he was still shocked by Xu Qingzhi's peerless beauty, and his silent Taoist heart couldn't help but ripples.

Just seeing the person in front of me, I felt that the whole hall seemed to be glowing because of her appearance.

Turning his eyes, Shouzheng Daojun looked at the blue Three Treasures Ruyi on the crook of Xu Qingzhi's left arm. This is a symbol of the authority of the 'Innate One Qi Southern Sect'.

Then his eyes froze at the purple wooden staff exposed on Xu Qingzhi's shoulder.

First-grade innate spiritual treasure: Samsara Staff

The power of this treasure has been known to countless practitioners in the world.

The thirty-six demon kings of the "One Hundred Thousand Mountains" and the seventy-two leaders of the Zerg tribe were all hijacked by this thing.

Originally, the [Reincarnation Staff] was only a third-grade innate spiritual treasure, but through the countless resources of the ‘Innate Yiqi Southern Sect’ and the cultivation of one hundred and eight Tao Lords, this object was promoted to a first-grade innate spiritual treasure sixty years ago.

Facing this object, even Taoist Lord Shouzheng could not help but feel a sense of greed in his heart. By controlling this treasure, there is a great possibility of controlling existences at the level of one hundred and eight Taoist Lords.

Between this increase and decrease, the strength and weakness of the 'Xiantian Yiqi Nan Sect' and the 'Daode Sect' will immediately reverse.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, the [Reincarnation Staff] belongs to Ruyi Dao Lord Zhang Ke, and there are countless tricks involved in it. No matter how passionate the heart of Shouzheng Dao Lord is, he can only give up the idea with regret.

'Oh~, Taoist Ruyi really trusts Taoist Wushuang, and he dares to hand over such treasures to others.'

But then he thought about the various rumors between Wushuang Daojun and Ruyi Daojun, and he wasn't too surprised. After all, Ruyi Daojun's lustful nature was well known to the world.

Lord Shouzheng Dao had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but his face didn't reveal anything. He asked with a smile:

"I heard that the 'Sword Immortal' is also in the Guizong Mountain Sect. As one of the two Taoist companions of Ruyi Taojun, the leader of the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect', why didn't he show up at such an important moment?"

Xu Qingzhi raised her eyebrows. In Shouzheng Daojun's short sentence, there was both instigation and sarcasm towards herself. How could she not hear it?

But how could she be a good person? She cupped her hand casually and said in an understatement:

“Our sect has recently successfully refined sixteen ‘Giant Divine Weapons’, and the Green Eyebrow Palm Order is currently testing these ‘Giant Divine Weapons’.

In addition, as the deputy head of this sect, I can decide all matters in the sect with a single word. The Green Eyebrow Commander has great trust in Wushuang, so there is no need to come."

"Hiss~~"

A clear sound of breathing sounded from the hall.

The 'Giant Divine Weapon' refined by the 'Xiantian Yiqi Nan Sect' is a Tao Lord-level existence.

Listening to Wushuang Daojun's wishes, his sect was able to refine as many as sixteen puppets at one time. Doesn't it mean that the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect' has mastered the method of mass-producing Daojun-level puppets?

If this is true, how many 'giant weapons' have been refined by the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect' over the past hundreds of years?

When I think about it carefully, I am horrified that all the representatives of the sects of the ‘Dao Sect Alliance’ changed their expressions upon hearing this.

Originally, it was shocking enough for the 'Daode Sect' to reveal nine Dao Lord-level guardians, but the power revealed by the 'Xiantian Yiqi South Sect' seemed to be even more powerful than the 'Daode Sect'!

‘Crack!’

A beloved jade that Lord Shouzheng Dao held in his right hand was crushed into pieces. It was obvious that he could no longer control his emotions.

Taoist Shouzhen on the side saw this and immediately spoke to relieve the siege.

"Wushuang Taoist Lord, since all the fellow Taoists here are here for the invasion of enemies from outside the territory, let us formulate a regulation on this matter."

Wushuang Daojun nodded slightly and agreed:

"The invasion of foreign enemies is a serious matter. Once they invade this realm, I am afraid that the life in the realm will be devastated.

In the past, if the head of our sect had not detected the movements of the Zerg in advance, plotted against the half-lord of the Zerg, and used the magical method to wipe out billions of Zerg in one fell swoop, this world would have been reduced to a nest of insects long ago."

"..."

Taoist Shouzhen was extremely angry. How come everything could be implicated in the ‘Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect’, but he really couldn’t refute these words.

Lord Shouzhengdao had come to his senses at this time. He ignored Xu Qingzhi, but faced the main hall and said:

"Fellow Taoists, in the past, sects across the world made an oath:

The thunderous drums sound, and the whole world obeys. If you disobey the order, you will be killed and exterminated!

Enemies from outside the current territory are about to invade. In order to endanger the safety of this world and endanger the lives of billions of creatures, we must abide by our original oath and lead all sects and factions to jointly expel the foreign enemies. We also ask for your full help!"

With just one word, Mr. Shouzhengdao seized the leadership in his hands.

As soon as these words came out, nearly 20,000 sect representatives in the main hall all turned their attention to Wushuang Daojun.

Taoist Wushuang slowly raised his head, looking at Taoist Shouzheng with eyes as clear as snow-capped mountains and ice springs.

After a moment, Wushuang Daojun opened his lips lightly, and an ethereal sound filled the hall.

“This sect comes from the ‘Xiantian Yiqi Sect’ and has always kept its promises and promises. I will not forget the oaths made in the past.

According to the records in the sect, this oath was jointly made by the sects all over the world, and the Tao Te Sect became the organizer and in charge of the [Zhentian Drum] after being elected by the sects all over the world. Is this true?"

Mr. Shouzhengdao instinctively felt that there seemed to be a trap in Xu Qingzhi's words, but he could not figure out where the danger was. However, he had to answer questions, so he immediately nodded and said:

"Yes, six thousand four hundred years ago, all the sects in the world held a world sect conference at Zhending Mountain, and all the sects of all ranks participated.

At this conference, after a great recommendation, our sect was selected as the ‘Stand Holder’ by the sects all over the world.

According to the agreement reached at that time, if our realm is faced with a life-and-death situation or if an enemy from outside the territory invades, we can order practitioners from all over the world to fight together.

If there is any disobedience, all the sects in the world will discuss it together!"

Having said that, Mr. Shouzheng Dao took out a "Golden Seal and Jade Bin" deed from his sleeve.

"This is the contract that was sworn at the beginning. It is certified by the seal of the sect of the world. The head of your sect, the 'Xiantian Yiqi Sect', is also among them!"

Xu Qingzhi raised his hand, and Yuan Jinting quickly stepped forward, took the oath deed from Lord Shouzheng Dao, and handed it to Xu Qingzhi.

Taoist Shouzhen looked on, looking at Xu Qingzhi slightly nervously, worried that he would destroy the deed.

Seeing this, Mr. Shouzhengdao couldn't help but sigh secretly.

My junior brother is rare in the world, both in terms of Taoism and aptitude, but this situation is a little different.

The 'Xiantian Yiqi Nanzong' attaches great importance to reputation. How can we tear up the deed in full view of everyone?

Just as he was thinking to himself, Xu Qingzhi glanced at the oath deed and suddenly said:

"This deed is not authentic and should be destroyed!"

As he said this, he put his hands together to destroy the deed.

Mr. Shouzheng Dao suddenly shuddered, stood up from his seat, and shouted hurriedly:

"Ouch! The deed is genuine, don't tear it up!"

Xu Qingzhi laughed "haha" and handed the oath deed to Yuan Jinting. He smiled and said to Lord Shouzhengdao:

"Headmaster Shouzheng doesn't need to be like this. This oath deed is naturally true. Wushuang is just joking with you."

Dead silence...

peaceful...

The hall with more than 20,000 people was silent and there was no sound. Everyone looked up at Lord Shouzhengdao.

‘Chu tu tu tu!!!’

The veins on Shouzheng Daojun's forehead were jumping, and there were countless cracks on his face.

'Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!'

Mr. Shouzheng Dao has never experienced such an embarrassing situation in his life, and his peaceful state of mind for thousands of years was disturbed and boiled like rain falling on a flat lake.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xu Qingzhi sneered secretly, asking you to ridicule my identity, this time your face is settled.

Lord Shouzhengdao took the oath deed from Yuan Jinting expressionlessly, sat on his seat again, calmed himself down, and said:

"Since Deputy Sect Master Wushuang has approved the oath contract, I wonder if the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect' is willing to obey our orders?"

Xu Qingzhi stood up, raised his hands upright and saluted, and said seriously:

"How can we violate the oath sworn by our former master if we have made a huge promise?

Since the 'Taode Sect' is the 'stick-bearer' recognized by sects all over the world, our sect should also obey the call."

Xu Qingzhi's words surprised everyone present, including the Tao Te Sect.

Lord Shouzheng blinked his eyes. He suspected that he was hearing hallucinations and spoke again:

"Deputy Master Wushuang, although Lord Ruyi Dao is not here, since you are in charge of your sect's three treasures, the Ruyi Staff, your words represent your sect's position.

Let me make sure again, your sect is really willing to accept any dispatch from me?"

Xu Qingzhi's face straightened and he corrected:

"This sect is not following the orders of your noble sect, but following the oath of the past and accepting the orders of the 'stick holder'!"

Lord Shouzhengdao smiled ‘haha’.

"Our sect is now the 'stick-bearer', so what's the difference between the two!"

After making a casual remark, Taoist Shouzheng decided not to dwell on this topic, Taoist Wushuang finally let go, and then he settled the matter.

He immediately praised:

"Although Fellow Taoist Wushuang is a woman, she is not inferior to men, she does things cleanly and neatly, and she is very admirable for her integrity."

After saying that, Mr. Shouzhengdao bowed to Xu Qingzhi and then said:

"Since the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect' is willing to accept the deployment, then the 'Southern Sect Alliance' will definitely not refuse..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Qingzhi suddenly said:

"Wait a minute..."

Lord Shouzhengdao's heart sank, and he had a bad premonition, and asked in a deep voice:

"Why did fellow Taoist Wushuang interrupt? Forget it, don't worry about it. Please tell me what you want to say, fellow Taoist?"

Xu Qingzhi stood there with her tall and straight sleeves like nails. She looked at Shouzheng Daojun and said:

"Headmaster Shouzheng, before discussing the matter, Wushuang still has some things that he would like to ask for advice from the headmaster?"

"Oh~~, fellow Taoist, please speak frankly!"

Xu Qingzhi cupped his hands and said:

"Headmaster Shouzheng, all of you here know that an enemy from outside the territory is about to invade, but you don't know what kind of creature this invading enemy is?

In addition, we don’t know when, where, how many, or what their strength is, so please let me know clearly!

We can discuss countermeasures on this!"

Lord Shouzhengdao glanced at Xu Qingzhi.

The news of the enemy from outside the territory was first sent back by Daojun Baishi from the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect'. He did not believe that Daojun Wushuang didn't know the details.

What exactly is this Wushuang Taoist planning?

Lord Shouzheng thought for a moment and then said:

"The news of the invasion of enemies from outside the territory was sent back from outside the territory by the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect' Dao Lord Baishi three quarters of an hour ago.

Later, I sent Junior Brother Guanxing to the void to investigate, but I haven’t gotten accurate information yet.”

After a brief pause, Mr. Shouzhengdao continued:

"But according to Taoist Master Baishi, there are three types of enemies outside the territory: practitioners, demons, and demons.

Its quantity is immeasurable, because it has harnessed sixteen stars.

Looking at the speed of these sixteen stars traveling in the void, they will arrive outside the realm of this world in three years.

As for the strength, our sect has not yet explored it, so it is still unknown.

However, Daojun Baishi is a member of the ‘Innate One Qi Southern Sect’. If your sect has any urgent news, please announce it. This is extremely important to resist the invasion of foreign enemies.”

Lord Shouzheng Dao is secretly proud of himself. No matter what information you, the ‘Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect’, have hidden, you must reveal it this time.

Xu Qingzhi nodded solemnly and replied in a solemn voice:

"Yes, our sect Master Baishi did send back another piece of news just now. Because the matter was urgent, we didn't have time to inform you. Now it's up to me to announce the news."

Speaking of this, Xu Qingzhi took a breath and said every word:

"According to the news sent back by Master Baishi, the invading enemies this time are headed by the 'Haojing Shangyuan Spirit Realm', which governs nearly ten million practitioners and hundreds of millions of demons and demons to jointly attack.

These are nothing, the key is that the people led by ‘Haojing Shang Yuanling Realm’ are in the Taoist realm!”

‘Buzz~~~~’

Mr. Shouzhengdao suddenly stood up from his seat, a huge feeling of dizziness invaded his whole body, and several big words circled back and forth in his mind like mountains.

'Tao Zun... Tao Zun... Tao Zun...'

After a while, old wounds aroused my mood, my body went limp, I felt like the world was spinning, and my eyesight became dim.

Vaguely, he heard the nervous and urgent shouting of his junior brother Shouzhen Daojun.

"Senior brother...senior brother...senior brother, what's wrong with you???"

"Yeah, what's wrong with me? Who am I? Where am I?"
