Yongzhou is located in the north, and it should be extremely cold in winter. However, due to the drought that year, even in the coldest month of winter, the temperature in Yongzhou was still slightly higher than that in Liangzhou.
However, when the Kunxu Mountain boundary arrived, everything turned into a blanket of snow-white.
The sky is filled with snowflakes, and the wilderness is frozen, and everything is white. The peaks like sky pillars tower into the clouds, and the snow-capped mountains like jade dragons stretch endlessly across the earth, showing the beauty of nature's creation.
It was nearly noon when a heavy snowstorm suddenly arrived. On a peak in the western boundary of the Kunxu Mountains, a Taoist man slowly opened his eyes.
This Taoist looked to be about thirty years old, with a square face, wearing a Yuanshi crown on his head, and a fairy robe with purple ribbons of Bagua. He was sitting on a green lotus blooming on the snow peak.
When the Taoist opened his eyes, a ray of golden light passed through the wind and snow and fell on the snow peak. A Taoist wearing a green Taoist robe appeared. He bowed his head and said with a smile: "On New Year's Eve, Guangcheng
Senior brother, it’s time to go back to the temple to get together with the senior brothers.”
The Taoist is Guangcheng, one of the four masters of swordsmanship, and the contemporary master of Yuxu Temple.
Hearing the words of Qingpao Taoist, Guangcheng Taoist did not answer immediately, but moved his eyes slightly, calculated for a while, and said: "You are not busy, Junior Brother Guangming, please go to Dongtianmen to greet the two junior brothers, and by the way, please invite Ding who is accompanying him.
Elder Yaoguang of the Lake Sect is here."
"Junior Brother Yin and Junior Brother Shenhou are back?"
Qingpao Taoist Guangming showed a hint of joy when he heard the words, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, he showed a solemn look, "Dinghu Sect's Yaoguang Pojun, the head of the Jiang family...Senior Brother, you
Decided?"
"I just met him for a while, and I haven't made a decision yet." Taoist Guangcheng shook his head and looked at the palm of his hand. "Pindao can't calculate this person's fate. His future is uncertain, and it may bring consequences to Pindao."
a surprise."
"It may also be because of fright," Taoist Guangming sighed, "I have always been free from the world, but now I guess I have to take a trip into troubled waters."
He knew that since Taoist Guangcheng made this decision, it meant that Yuxu Guan would be involved in an increasingly chaotic situation. No matter whether Elder Yaoguang could convince Taoist Guangcheng, Yuxu Guan would join the world. The difference
It's just a matter of cooperating or not cooperating with that person.
Taoist Guangcheng was quite indifferent and said: "It will happen sooner or later. When we accommodate Tao and fruit and interpret Tao and fruit, we will naturally carry the corresponding cause and effect. The higher the rank, the deeper the influence of cause and effect. I, Yuxu Guan,
The Tao Fruit and the Killing Tribulation are deeply involved. We can deduce the Tao Fruit through the Killing Tribulation. When the Killing Tribulation comes, we will not be able to escape the influence."
"And now, changes that have not happened in eight hundred years are coming, and the calamity is raging, and we cannot avoid it. Instead of passively responding to the calamity, it is better to take the initiative to enter the calamity. Don't forget, there are still people who know our path and fruit.
secret."
"Senior brother, you mean..." Taoist Guangming's expression changed, "Jiang family?"
The relationship between Yuxuguan and the Ji family and the Jiang family is quite deep, especially the Jiang family.
Because people of the Ji family have the Dinghu sect as a choice, and if the Jiang family chooses to enter Xuanmen, Yuxuguan is the first choice. There are very few people like Lu Tianpeng who join the Dinghu sect.
Case.
Even now, there are still one or two disciples in Yuxu Temple who are related to the Jiang family.
Therefore, the head of the Jiang family is well aware of the secret of Tao and Fruit of Yuxu Temple. If they deliberately arranged it, they may not be unable to find opportunities to actively lead Yuxu Temple into the muddy water.
However, isn’t the head of the Jiang family afraid of offending Yuxuguan?
Taoist Guangming actually didn't believe that the Jiang family would dare to take such a risk, unless...
He suddenly looked at Taoist Guangcheng.
Unless this fellow Guanzhu has already had a tendency.
"I'm just taking precautions and preparing for a rainy day." Taoist Guangcheng didn't say anything.
He sat on the green lotus. The lotus was swaying in the wind and snow, but his figure was like an ancient mountain, eternally motionless. It had an unfathomable aura of profoundness, which made Taoist Guangming, as his junior disciple, feel in awe.
"Go ahead."
After saying this, Master Guangcheng closed his eyes and began to meditate and adjust his breath again.
"yes."
Guangming bowed again, raised a golden light, and went away through the wind and snow.
······
······
The Kunxu Mountain Range is 30,000 miles long and can be said to be the largest mountain in the world. The mountain is divided into east and west, each with its own territory.
The peak where Taoist Guangcheng meditates is located in West Kunxu, which is actually the boundary of Kunxu Immortal Palace. Taoist Guangcheng meditates there, which actually blocks the gate of Kunxu Immortal Palace, preventing the Fairy Queen from leaving easily.
Kunxu Immortal Palace.
After Taoist Guangming left that mountain peak, he flew more than 20,000 miles, from West Kunxu to East Kunxu, and then to Tianmen Peak in East Kunxu.
There are two peaks facing each other here, and the cliffs stand tall. The peak is as high as three thousand feet, just like a Tianmen standing in front of the mountains, so it is called "Tianmen Peak" and it is the entrance to Dongkunxu.
When Taoist Guangming arrived, there were already figures flashing between the two Tianmen Peaks, and energy floating in the air.
In addition to the unique qi of the two people in Yuxuguan, there are also rays of Buddha's light forming auspicious clouds, and the shadow of the Arhat's Dharma can be seen in it.
However, when Taoist Guangming's golden light came, those Buddha lights had already begun to leave. By the time the Taoist fell down, the Buddha light and the nine figures had almost disappeared on the vast plain outside Kunxu Mountain.
However, it seems that he did not really leave, but found a place to stay on the plain.
Taoist Guangming couldn't help but frown.
But at this moment, seeing the golden light fall to the ground, the remaining four people came forward to greet it.
"Senior Brother Guangming." Yin Tulong and Shen Hou said.
"Senior Guangming."
Jiang Li and Gongsun Qingyue met.
Speaking of Taoist Guangming, Jiang Li and Gongsun Qingyue had a close relationship. At that sword discussion conference, Taoist Guangming was one of the three masters of weapon refining representing the retro sect. The Great Wan Sword
It was from his hand.
Gongsun Qingyue also had a good fight with Jiang Li with a large sword.
Although Gongsun Qingyue should have no impression...
After all, in that sword debate, Gongsun Qingyue was fought by Tianxuan throughout the whole process. He was not conscious, and even the blows he received afterwards were basically taken by Tianxuan.
"Two junior brothers."
Taoist Guangming first nodded to his fellow disciples, then gave Jiang Li a thumbs up and said, "Fellow Taoist Yaoguang, Mr. Gongsun's family master, I am a poor Taoist."
He was serious about treating Jiang Li as a peer and not as a senior.
After all, Jiang Li is now one of the six elders of the Dinghu Sect. He holds the position of Yaoguang Pojun. In terms of status, he is actually considered a big boss.
After the two parties had seen the ceremony, Taoist Guangming asked: "May I ask fellow Taoist Yaoguang, why do people from the Buddhist country appear here?"
When Jiang Li heard this, his heart suddenly moved.
Because Taoist Guangming's tone seemed a bit unkind.
Is it because of the Great Sword incident? Or is it something else?
Jiang Li, whose mind could measure thousands of times, immediately had an idea, but did not reveal it. He opened his mouth to answer, but Yin Tulong jumped in first and said: "The bald donkey in the Buddhist country was plotted by fellow Taoist Yaoguang.
You deserve to be forced to work as a coolie for us. Senior brother, let's take a look back first, my injuries cannot withstand the wind and frost here."
As he said this, the little Taoist coughed twice, his face was pale and pitiful, which made Taoist Guangming twitch his face.
How could Yin Tulong, a talented killer, have the nerve to look so pitiful?
This is clearly siding with outsiders and trying to smooth things over for the other party.
Taoist Guangming felt that his fellow sect was unreliable, but he had no choice but to nod his head and said: "Then let's go back and talk about it in detail. However, fellow Taoist Yaoguang, the master of Sheguan Guangcheng Temple hopes that fellow Taoist will move and go for a while.
"
"Taoist Master Guangcheng is not in Yuxu Temple?" Jiang Li said in surprise.
"Senior Brother Guangcheng has been practicing swordsmanship at Xushenmen Peak in Xikun since the Immortal Queen took action in Liangzhou that day. He has not returned yet." Taoist Guangming said calmly.
In other words, Jiang Li is going to the realm of Kunxu Immortal Palace.
I don’t know if his arrival will attract the women from Kunxu Immortal Palace to take action.
"Then let's go visit Senior Guangcheng first, junior brother."
Gongsun Qingyue suddenly spoke, with a full smile, and said: "Although we come with full sincerity, we can't keep Senior Guangcheng waiting for a long time, can we?"
With that said, Gongsun Qingyue pulled Jiang Li and stood up. Regardless of what Taoist Guangming said before, Jiang Li was the only one he saw, so she flew with him in the direction of Xikunxu.
The three people who stayed behind in Yuxuguan watched the two figures disappear, each with their own feelings.
"This junior seems to be completely obedient to fellow Taoist Yaoguang. Unexpectedly, he has a strong temperament and is very protective of fellow Taoist Yaoguang." Yin Tulong was amazed at what he saw, but he didn't mean to be offended. "How about we
Go and have a look too?"
"Is your injury not serious anymore?" After hearing this, Marquis Shen couldn't help but joke, and then shook his head and said, "It's better to go back to the temple first. It's also time to calm down the brothers and let them know the inside story of the Liangzhou battle."
With that said, Marquis Shen slapped the tiger's butt and drove the tiger, taking Yin Tulong with him, towards a high mountain behind Tianmen Peak.
The Taoist Guangming who was left behind first looked at the direction in which Jiang Li and the others were leaving, and then looked at the mountain, "Sincerity? This is a troubled time."
He could almost imagine the reaction of the senior brother in the temple after knowing what Gongsun Qingyue said.
The more sincere you are, the more likely you are to convince Taoist Guangcheng. If Taoist Guangcheng leans towards Jiang Li, it will undoubtedly be unacceptable to the Jiang family. Gongsun Qingyue's words may have caused a fire.
'I just don't know whether she said this on purpose or accidentally.'
······
······
On the other side, Jiang Li and Gongsun Qingyue flew more than a hundred miles away, but no one came from behind.
Gongsun Qingyue took out the wordless heavenly book, looked at it for a while, and said: "I am afraid that there is no peace in Yuxu Temple. Otherwise, Taoist Guangming will not ignore my disrespect and return to Yuxu Temple first.
"
"Are you from the Jiang family?" Jiang Li also had some thoughts.
The connection between the Jiang family and Yuxuguan cannot be hidden from anyone. The relationship between the two parties dates back to before the end of Dharma, and the Jiang family’s ancestral home is also in Yongzhou, so how could there be no contact between them.
"Five of the Twelve Golden Immortals in Yuxu Temple have died, and the remaining seven are very close. If one of them objects, it may seriously affect our purpose. But fortunately, Taoist Guangcheng has a strong relationship with Yuxu."
He seems to have his own thoughts, so he proposed to see me alone."
Jiang Li thought for a while and said, "This is enough."
Compared with the separation of the two parties of the Dinghu Sect, Yuxu Temple is undoubtedly much better at integrating the upper and lower parties.
Guangcheng Taoist Qian Gang is arbitrary. If he agrees, others will follow suit. The objections of individual people are not important.
And since Jiang Li is here, he is naturally confident of persuading Taoist Guangcheng.
"That person may not sit back and watch. The two seniors Shen Hou and Yin Tulong should have returned to Yuxu Temple by now. If there is really disharmony in Yuxu Temple, something should be done at this time."
Gongsun Qingyue said while reading the wordless heavenly book.
Suddenly, her eyes moved slightly, "Here we come."
From the sky behind, a ray of light similar to the golden light that Taoist Guangming had previously controlled passed through the sky, chasing here at a speed that even the wind and lightning could not reach.
The traces of this golden light are clearly revealed on the wordless heavenly book, and even the figures within the golden light are also revealed.
"Yuxu Temple's Golden Light Technique." Jiang Li immediately recognized the origin of the golden light.
Yuxuguan's ground-moving golden light technique is a unique escape method. When you first practice it, you can travel thousands of miles a day. When you reach high and deep places, you can travel thousands of miles easily.
At the moment, this golden light is faster than the wind and thunder, as if it has pushed the golden light technique to the extreme, which has fully revealed the eagerness of the caster.
——He wants to catch up with Jiang Li.
And once he catches up with Jiang Li and conflicts arise, it will undoubtedly have an impact on subsequent negotiations.
'A simple and effective way to disrupt the situation, but it is too rough. It seems that what Taoist Guangcheng did today was beyond the other party's expectations.'
When Jiang Li thought of this, he immediately condensed his Yuan Qi, and saw eight scenes appearing together, constantly rotating around Jiang Li and Gongsun Qingyue. The wind, thunder, air, clouds, and the eight scenes merged with the sky, as if they had become part of the sky, and the earth.
Repelling each other, eliminating the bondage of the earth.
A stream of light suddenly flashed in the sky, and the figures of Jiang Li and Gongsun Qingyue disappeared into the light, and they passed hundreds of mountains in the blink of an eye.
Behind them, in the golden light, a Taoist wearing a light blue robe could not help but grit his teeth as he saw the light quickly moving away from him.
"It's so fast..."
If he continues at this speed, even if he catches up to Shenmen Peak, he still won't be able to catch up with him.
In that case——
The Taoist drew a circle with his finger, and the gas turned into a mirror. The clouds flashed in the mirror, and the light and shadow flowed around, as if passing through thousands of mountains and rivers, and finally stopped at a majestic palace.
"Tianxuan's two disciples have arrived in Kunxu and are now heading to Shenmen Peak."
After typing this line of words into the mirror, the mirror light flickered and a pure white figure suddenly appeared in the mirror, looking at it with indifferent eyes.
"call--"
A mighty strong wind blew from the Kunxu Mountain in Sanwanli, and white clouds emerged from the sky, overlapping one another and creating a strange phenomenon.
Both the Taoist priests in the rear and Jiang Li and Gongsun Qingyue in the front saw this strange scene.
