Zhuang Wudao had a strange look in his eyes, and he immediately thought thoughtfully: "Could it be the Northern Taiping Road?"
"Well, the master's intention is to suspect that there is a chess piece laid by Taiping Dao in my Lichen Sect, and his status is not low. But these years, no trace of this person has been found. This time, I allowed the rumors to spread, just because I wanted to
Take a closer look at the undercurrents under the surface of the sect and see who are jumping up and down, making waves. Of course, if that person can really jump out on his own initiative, that would be great."
Sikong Hong sighed, then smiled bitterly and said, "Wudao, do you still remember the time when the demons from the Tiannan Forest Sea attacked the mountain during the competition three years ago?"
"Of course I remember that the demonic birds that Wuhenya drove to attack the mountain were at least 200,000 in number."
Zhuang Wudao had a profound memory. Although there was no danger that time, he was still trapped in the forest. After dozens of days, he was able to return to Lichen.
Such a large-scale bird tide has been extremely rare since the Lichen Sect's ancestor Xuan Xiao.
But what does this tide of beasts have to do with the rumors currently being spread among Li Chen’s disciples?
"This matter has been found out. One of the three flamingo eggs laid by the Chiming flamingo at Wuhen Cliff was stolen. Near the Tiannan Forest Sea, we are the only ones who can do this silently.
It’s just the Chen family.”
A cold light flashed in Sikong Hong's eyes: "For this reason, at that time, Taiping Road was provocative in the East China Sea, and Xu Wei from the country went north in a big way. However, several real Yuanshen of our sect were left and right, and the master was restrained by Wuhenya on Lichen Mountain.
, almost unable to move."
"So, Taiping Road is about to head south."
Zhuang Wudao thought thoughtfully, he must have felt the threat from the north, and Master Jifa would be eager to stabilize the sect and eliminate internal troubles.
"Then there is Huangji Peak."
Sikong Hong's tone was still serious: "Master believes that if I, Li Chen, want to get rid of this internal and external dilemma, which is close to a split, we can only temporarily let my Xuanlingshan family dominate in order to overcome the internal worries. Only the entire sect can do so.
, only by speaking with one voice can we resist the peace of the north. And this time the Nine Meridians Dharma Conference is the best time. Sanfa Zhenren has already moved, but there is still some hesitation."
At this point, Sikong Hong paused again and said with serious eyes: "If it goes as planned this time, it also means that Xuanlingshan will take the lead alone and bear a heavy responsibility. If there is a slight failure to the outside world, there will be a backlash within the door. Junior Brother
You are the secret disciple of this mountain, with extraordinary talents and meritorious deeds in Wuming Mountain. You have high hopes from the sect. I am afraid that by then, the sect will definitely entrust you with important tasks again. I hope you will be prepared, junior brother.
"
Zhuang Wudao frowned, a heavy responsibility? Could it be that he was temporarily dominating one side like Wumingshan did before? He was impatient with this kind of thing anyway, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it.
There is not enough time to achieve the golden elixir within ten years, so naturally it is better to avoid these chores.
Having said that, Sikong Hong would never tell him these confidential things before, but now he knows everything and talks about it, which is completely different from before. It can also be seen that Jie Fa and several senior brothers have high hopes for him.
Different from before.
He is now a secret disciple of the mountain whose status is comparable to that of Jin Dan, and he has established a foundation. He is already a pillar figure in Xuanling Mountain. It is impossible for him to stand by and watch when something happens in Xuanling Mountain.
However, he was happy to see the success of his decision on discipline. Within the Lichen Sect, there were really too many voices speaking.
"It's just in name. Master knows that you are dedicated to seeking the truth. Junior Brother Dou Wenlong will handle all the trivial matters for you. Junior Brother only needs to pay attention to the overall situation and make decisions at critical times. Isn't that what Junior Brother did during the Wuming Mountains?
of?"
After Sikong Hong finished speaking, he hesitated and said: "If I really want you to come forward and take on important responsibilities, my master will try my best to keep you away from the East China Sea."
Zhuang Wudao's heart moved, his eyes flashed slightly, and then he shook his head: "If you really want me to take charge, there is no need to avoid this."
He won't deliberately avoid Taiping Road, and he still doesn't know what his current state of mind is.
He wanted to make his father bow his head and admit his mistake in front of his mother's grave, but how could he make Chongyangzi bow his head?
Is it enough to make myself surpass that person in cultivation? Just by doing this, can Chongyangzi regret his original choice? Or, should Taiping Dao Xiao family also regret his original choice?
And what exactly should be done to achieve it?
He has not yet made a decision about all this and feels at a loss.
Thinking about it carefully, in the past, he only held his breath and wanted to prove to that person that even if he left the Shen family and Taiping Road, he could still live a good life and be successful in cultivation. He did not want to go back.
In the north, be the puppet and chess piece at the mercy of the Shen and Xiao families.
But now, as a foundation builder, his status in Lichen Sect is comparable to that of Jindan, just like Chongyangzi's status in Taiping Dao. It is no longer the precarious time at the beginning, and he really has some capital to fight against the man from the north.
But what should he do next? Zhuang Wudao had never thought about it before.
But now, I can no longer think about it and make a decision.
But no matter what, as a member of the Lichen Sect, Zhuang Wudao could not allow Taiping Dao's plot in the East China Sea to succeed.
There is no grudge, it is just that as a disciple of Lichen, I have such an obligation, and it is also a matter of interest.
"There is another matter related to your spirit slave Nie Xianling. Two months ago, some monks in the East China Sea discovered the location of the Nie family's treasures. This matter, Nie Xianling has been pushed to the forefront, not only Haitao
Gebi
In order to obtain it, several major forces in the southeast, and even many people in the Lichen Sect, also covet it. If Wu Dao may involve you, I, Xuanling Mountain, will be extremely passive. Even Master's plan may ultimately come to nothing.
"
Sikong Hong: "I want to know, Wudao, what your attitude is towards this matter. I can make some plans after I go back."
If his junior brother chooses to give up, that would be for the best. But if Zhuang Wudao says no, Xuanling Mountain has no choice, and must be prepared to face the entire southeastern cultivation world.
It's not that he has a cold temperament, but that Nie Xianling has done nothing to benefit Xuanling Mountain since he started. On the contrary, Zhuang Wudao has paid a lot for this woman.
Instead of letting this woman drag his junior brother into that dangerous whirlpool, he would rather Zhuang Wudao be cruel and completely throw away Nie Xianling, this troublesome burden.
"Nie Xianling?"
Zhuang Wudao smiled coldly and didn't care. "Senior brother, there is no need to worry about the fairy bell matter. Wudao will handle it on his own and will never drag down Xuanling Mountain."
If someone really wants to take advantage of this girl and make some fuss, then they will definitely lose miserably this time and it will be unbearable.
Anyway, he was looking forward to it and would wait and see.
"Really? Junior brother, you just have to be aware of it."
Sikong Hong was dubious, but seeing Zhuang Wudao's calm expression, he stopped asking. Some words were enough, but any more would be excessive.
※※※※
After another five or six days, the stasis in Zhuang Wudao's body was finally completely dissolved due to Sikong Hong's efforts. He was able to complete the cycle of heaven and earth, and the speed of healing suddenly accelerated.
At this time, Zhuang Wudao could already use his true energy to practice boxing and even perform some less powerful spells.
However, within these hundred days, Zhuang Wudao still cannot fight with others. Otherwise, the injuries will be added to the injuries, and it will be difficult to recover.
Zhuang Wudao was finally able to devote all his attention to researching and digesting the insights he gained this time in Lihan Palace. At the same time, he also began to make preparations to refine the ‘Kun Yuan Divine Flame’.
This third-level spiritual flame is extremely important to him. Once it is refined, it will be provided with a steady stream of earth element essence, which can be used endlessly.
Even if Yu Xuxuan's 'Qing Emperor's body' and the blood ape fighting spirit were not available that day, he would not be able to completely defeat him, let alone fall into this predicament.
Zhuang Wudao prepared to keep this divine flame in his spiritual aperture just like the 'Stone Flame'.
I plan to use my self-created "Tianxuan Illuminating World True Sutra" to open another spiritual aperture and cultivate a magical magical power.
However, he was required to push this technique to a state close to the third heaven in a short period of time.
It's not easy, but it's not impossible. This time, summoning the sun-devouring blood ape to possess him, Zhuang Wudao's eyes were opened in the way of controlling fire.
In particular, the sun-devouring blood flame controlled by this war spirit seemed to be inconspicuous. However, in that battle, Hongzhen had at least half of his true energy to prevent the blood flame from spreading on his body.
The harvest at Chiyin City Star Observatory also allowed Zhuang Wudao to more accurately calculate the true position of Tianxuan Star.
After just a few days, he was able to sense the location of the spiritual orifice, which was in the lower left corner of the abdomen.
What is missing at this time is a suitable technique. Zhuang Wudao has extremely high requirements. He must have strong power and can be integrated into his own swordsmanship and martial arts. He must also be able to match the fire nature of the Kunyuan Divine Flame.
blend.
However, after much thought, Zhuang Wudao couldn't think of a spell that satisfied him, and even Sword Spirit couldn't come up with a suitable suggestion for a while.
At this time, the injuries in his body have not recovered anyway, and he must wait for more than two months to melt the Kunyuan Divine Flame.
After several unsuccessful discussions with Yun'er, Zhuang Wudao had no choice but to give it up temporarily and prepare to find some spark-type magic books in the Chuanfa Hall after returning. Every day, he only warms and nourishes the acupoints and activates the Shiming Jingyan.
Roast it to adapt it to fire properties.
In addition to the Kunyuan Divine Flame and the Zhaokong Broken Mirror, what he gained in Lihan Palace was also an orb and a piece of cloth with a material similar to the true shape of Xiang Yao.
The former is called the Qiankun Shou Yuanzhu, because it is a twenty-eight-level forbidden weapon and is among the top-grade spiritual weapons. Zhuang Wudao cannot use it temporarily, and it has never been used in Lihan Palace. It can only be left to him.
You can only use this treasure after entering the middle stage of the fifth floor of the foundation building.
That piece of cloth is also quite surprising. What is recorded in it is a secret technique called "Yuan".
The mana essence can be compressed and then used to enhance the power of spells and martial arts by 30%.
This method conflicts with the Demonic Destruction Art of Death, but it does not matter if it is used on top of other spells. It is just that the consumption of mana is slightly higher.
Unfortunately, the piece of cloth was not stained with the essence and blood of any ancient mythical beast, which made Zhuang Wudao's plan to use this piece of blood as a blood sacrifice to gain some benefits from King Abiping completely failed.
Speaking of blood sacrifice, Zhuang Wudao also needs to prepare a brand new sacrificial vessel now. I wonder how much food King Abiping could take from the God-Slaying Extermination Sword that day in Lihan Palace?
He could clearly feel the Demon Lord's joy that day. Presumably, the feedback this time must be so rich that it was beyond his expectation.
The refining of the Kunyuan Divine Flame and the new mystical powers were hindered, but Zhuang Wudao's progress in martial arts was rapid.
Before that, the Star Picking Hand and the Great Shift of the Universe actually used the foundations of Subduing the Dragon and Subduing the Tiger Fist and Xingyi Liuhe Fist, and even the location of the spiritual orifice came from the latter two.
This time when he returned from Lihan Palace, Zhuang Wudao really added his own things. Especially when he left from the fourth floor, Yun'er used the Yuanling of heaven and earth to instill the information that reflected into his thoughts, which was obviously intentional.
This is closely related to the two techniques he created.
Whenever he encounters obstacles while studying these two techniques, Zhuang Wudao can always find a solution to the difficulty after recalling these memories.
Not only did Lei solidify the foundation of two self-created martial arts, but he also developed twelve basic boxing frames with Star Reacher in just ten days, truly elevating this martial art to the second heavenly realm.
And just when Zhuang Wudao was in retreat on the boat and gradually lost his mind about Shu, he took this treasure ship with spirit bones and finally returned to Nanping Mountain safely.
