Chapter 184: Gathering and waiting for the wind to rise
In the Shouzheng Palace, Zhang Yu looked away when he saw Tao Dingfu driving away in a boat.
He had already judged in his mind that since the Yuandu sect came to summon the so-called outside disciples, they would definitely not only look for the original senior brother, but would definitely look for other fellow sects as well.
Tao Dingfu had never met anyone from the sect before. This should be because he was temporarily stationed in Baizhen Mountain, and he was in an important place like Yujing in Tianxia. Even if someone from the sect wanted to find him, it would be difficult for him. Xuan Zun could not help but
There was no chance of getting in front of him.
But now that Tao Dingfu went to the East Courtyard to deliver the news, the sect might take advantage of this time to look for him. If Tao Dingfu was attacked, he would naturally help him out.
What happened was indeed as he expected. Sure enough, people from the sect intercepted him midway. However, although the person's skills were similar to that of Tao Dingfu, and slightly higher, he was suppressed by Tao Dingfu from beginning to end, and finally retreated.
And go.
This result is actually not surprising. In his opinion, it is not that the person from the sect has no fighting experience, but that he has only faced one type of fighting method in the past, so once he faces other methods, he will
Somewhat uncomfortable.
Nowadays, after breaking down the barriers of sects and sects, Tianxia's communication with each other is far greater than before. Even true practitioners of the spiritual and mysterious realm can communicate with various colleagues.
It goes without saying that people like Tao Dingfu like to move around and study Taoism in various places.
It can be seen that the Yuandu Sect has been in a closed environment for at least a relatively long period of time, and it is likely that the internal sect still continues the previous sect behavior. The so-called merger with Tianxia is only a nominal change.
This is a very dangerous thing. Differences in Taoism are the most likely to cause conflicts, and it is difficult to compromise.
And he could think that Xuan Ting should also realize it, and the Yuandu sect is still in the inner circle, so there is no doubt that Xuan Ting will be the first to deal with this matter.
In fact, at this moment, after Xuan Ting dispatched Wei Tingzhi to the Yuandu faction, he also began to consider the possibility that the Yuandu faction would join the fight if the exchange failed.
As for what kind of enemy to deal with and how to deal with it, Xuan Ting had already made plans early in the morning.
According to the battle strategy decided in advance, Xuan Ting also put the Yuandu faction into this chess game and sent various court officials to prepare separately.
In the land of darkness and chaos, Cen Chuan opened up his own dojo here. In order to be able to communicate with his clone at any time, he also maintained the connection between the dojo and the Qing Qiong Qi.
While he was sitting quietly, he suddenly felt someone coming to the door. He couldn't help but open his eyes, but he didn't let the person in. Instead, he came out and came to Qingqiong Land, where he saw Zhong Tingzhi standing there.
, he bowed and said: "Brother Zhong is here, is there anything wrong?"
Zhong Weiwu also bowed and said: "I am here on the order of Xuan Ting, and I have something to say hello to my fellow Taoist."
Cen Chuan looked more serious and said, "What's the matter?"
Zhong Weiwu said: "Feng Tingzhi has reached Shangchentian and is discussing with Shangchentian there. But we don't know what Shangchentian is thinking about, so we should be prepared for the worst."
Cen Chuan said in a deep voice: "Fighting against Shang Chentian, Cen has no choice but to shoulder his responsibilities."
Zhong Weiwu said: "Fellow Daoist Cen has also been a court official. He must have known that the Huanyang sect was expelled by us that day, and now Shangchen Tianji has probably called him back.
In order to properly deal with this battle, every Tianxia cultivator must be prepared to participate in the war. Regardless of those who are in seclusion or are still cultivators, they must contribute their efforts to fight for Tianxia, and fellow Taoist Zhengqing is no exception. Therefore,
The court may recruit fellow Taoists from the Zhengqing Dynasty to return in the next few days."
Cen Chuan frowned and said, "My senior brother is still in seclusion."
Zhong Weiwu said in a deep voice: "This is an order from the court, not a discussion with fellow Taoists."
Cen Chuan's breath stagnated slightly. He had served as a court official. He knew how terrifying Tianxia's power would be when it was unleashed. That was only more than three hundred years ago, but Tianxia is now even more powerful than before.
Already.
As soon as Xuan Ting's will came into effect, he immediately felt a huge pressure in his mind, as if any force would be crushed in front of it.
After being silent for a while, he said: "I understand, I will try to inform senior brother in advance."
At the same time, Wu Qingxu walked into the depths of the Qingqiong land. He looked at the big pillars bound to the sky by Taoist vessels. Here, Xuan Zun and various tyrannical beings who had been imprisoned in the past were suppressed, and there were
Some of them can also be used as backup forces at critical moments.
He came to a large pillar and loosened some of the outermost restraints, revealing the figure of a Taoist priest.
Yu Chang raised his head and looked at Wu Qingxu standing in front of him. He was a little surprised. Generally speaking, those who were dissatisfied with the punishment would not pay attention to them. He thought for a while and tried to ask: "Wu Tingzhi, but
Is Shangchentian coming to attack?"
Wu Qingxu said in a deep voice: "There is no need to ask so many questions. If Tianxia needs to use you, he will naturally let you know."
Yu Chang nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Wu Qingxu stood still and watched as Yu Chang slowly fell down along the section of the pillar. If he came down and needed someone, he could untie him at any time, but he would have to make a vow in advance.
He turned around and walked towards the next big pillar.
On the other side, Lin Huaixin came to the Wentian Platform. After walking to the high place on the platform, he looked at the long needle hanging above that was overflowing with light. The flickering light extended out and seemed to reach the heaven and earth.
Two poles.
If you look carefully, you will find that it is changing all the time, and presents various shapes in the field of vision. It is not that the hanging needle itself is changing, but it symbolizes the changes of heaven.
That is to say, he is Xuan Zun, so he can see such a scene. Ordinary people coming here can only see a long needle.
Although this hanging needle is changing all the time, the changes are actually stable. In his opinion, the changes are also numerous, and they also use these characteristics. Once there is a strong intervention in the secret, or there is an additional method of judgment.
, then he will immediately reflect it on it and be observed by him.
He sat down here. From now on, he will personally keep an eye on it. Once the variables increase, it means that he will go to Chentian to start using the Qingling Heavenly Branch.
Tianxia Yujing.
Jiang Xun got off the flying boat. After the woman with the surname Zhe left that day, he handed over a clearance document to Yiluo Shangzhou and took the flying boat to come here.
Among the fellow disciples who had studied Taoism together, the most obvious person he could contact was Nie Xinying in Yujing.
On the one hand, Yujing is the capital of all the continents in the world, and on the other hand, Nie Xinying's status is high enough to be the direct descendant of Xuan Zun, which is also very rare. At least he has not heard of any of his fellow disciples who have such an opportunity.
However, he didn't know exactly how many disciples that teacher had accepted. After all, many of them had left before he entered Taoism, and he didn't know where they were cultivating now.
Just after he walked out of the Botai Hall, he saw a handsome Taoist standing there with a somewhat free and easy smile on his face. He gave him a slap in the face and said, "Senior Brother Jiang, you are polite."
Jiang Xun was surprised and said: "Junior Brother Tao, are you here too?"
Tao Dingfu smiled and said, "I've been coming to Yujing for a long time."
Jiang Xun looked at Tao Dingfu and saw that his Qi was deep and pure, calm and restrained, and it was difficult to see his roots. It was obvious that he had cultivated to a state similar to his own.
But he was not surprised at all. On the contrary, he took it for granted that all the disciples who were accepted by that teacher to practice Taoism were all talented.
He said with emotion: "It has been more than twenty years since I last said goodbye to my junior brother, right? Now that I think about it, it seems like yesterday."
Tao Dingfu said: "Has Senior Brother Jiang been in Yiluo Shangzhou for so many years?"
Jiang Xun nodded and said: "When I chose to leave Dongting to look for fate, the teacher sent me to the mainland with a magic weapon. Later I landed in Yiluo Shangzhou, and I have stayed here ever since.
There, until now.”
When these disciples practice to a certain point, the teacher will let them find their own destiny.
People like Yuan Xin and Tao Dingfu who had their destiny in the East Courtyard chose to stay in the East Courtyard, while many people were sent away directly by the teacher with magic weapons.
But at that time, leaving Dongting was not necessarily a good choice, because the turbid tide had not calmed down, and the respective troubles in each continent had not yet been solved. For example, the Taibo monster in Qingyang Shangzhou had only been solved in the past ten years.
Things can be said to be full of dangers everywhere.
After the two of them said a few words here, Tao Dingfu invited Jiang Xun to the magic weapon flying boat he came on, and took him to Baizhen Mountain.
Jiang Xun asked halfway: "Junior Brother Tao, has the sect looked for you?"
Tao Dingfu nodded and said, "I've searched, but no one has been here yet, Junior Sister Nie."
Jiang Xundao: "This is reasonable. No matter what, those people from the sect will never collide with the territory where Xuan Zun is stationed."
Tao Dingfu thought for a while and said: "This is so reasonable, but it is difficult to say what the sect does. According to what Senior Brother Yuan said, the sect had an agreement with Tianxia in the past, but we still don't know what the agreement was.
"
"Senior Brother Yuan? He's here too?"
Jiang Xun was stunned for a moment, then asked: "What about the agreement?"
Tao Dingfu then told him what he heard from Taoist Yuan in detail, and then said: "Senior Brother Yuan intends to call all the junior brothers and sisters here, as well as some of the teacher's former students. In this way
Gather into one force and jointly reject the sect."
Jiang Xun nodded and said: "Senior Brother Yuan and I thought of going together. I also thought that people coming from Master Xun's sect would not only look for me, but might look for other fellow sects, so I came here."
But he was worried and said: "It's just that the sect is so tyrannical, with Xuan Zun sitting in the sect, and there is an unknown agreement, I am afraid that if we join forces, we may not be able to dispel their ideas."
Tao Dingfu said: "Senior brother, don't worry. If we really call all our fellow disciples, we may not be able to resist the sect's coercion."
Jiang Xun thought this was just his words of comfort, smiled, and said: "That's right. Let's try our best to gather our fellow disciples together. In Junior Sister Nie's place, I think it will be fine for the time being."
