After all the ancestors escaped from the spaceship, they immediately greeted "Qihuangzi" who was waiting nearby.
Meng Zhou nodded and said, "Sit down and talk."
Right next to the empty space where the spacecraft was hovering, Meng Zhou had used the art of chemical transformation to create nineteen stone futons in advance. After saying hello, he sat down on his own in the main seat.
Seeing this, everyone else also found a place to sit down.
Although some people felt that this reception was too perfunctory and did not include two cups of hot tea.
However, everyone can clearly distinguish the priorities, and now is not the time to care about these, so we put away the ancestor style that we are "used to" on weekdays.
Everyone should maintain a good attitude and assume the role of ordinary monks.
After everyone sat down properly, Meng Zhou looked around at the cultivators and said:
"First of all, please confirm. Have you all read the message I sent to Qingxuanzong?"
Ancestor Mingnan, Yin Youyi, and Mu Hanyu said almost at the same time: "Look."
Although Qingye and the others did not speak, they nodded slightly.
Regarding his obviously condescending question, some people secretly frowned and felt very uncomfortable.
However, through the last "Virtual God Crystal Incident", everyone also has a basic understanding of the strength of "Qihuangzi", and the situation is stronger than others.
What's more, we have to rely on others in the future. Naturally, no one will not see the situation clearly and make random comments.
Seeing that no one jumped out to object, Meng Zhou nodded lightly and continued:
"So, does anyone have a different opinion on the inference that 'Xingxiu Palace is very likely to come out in the near future'?"
Some people spoke out in support and clearly expressed "no different opinions." Some people did not speak, but their meaning was expressed quite well, and some others continued to remain silent.
After a while, seeing that no one jumped out to object, Meng Zhou nodded again, but still emphasized again:
"Don't blame me for being long-winded. I want everyone to reach some basic consensus before we discuss it formally. I don't want anyone to be entangled in these basic issues later."
Of course, Meng Zhou himself knew that this was only one of the purposes.
The other purpose should have been understood by everyone present, but no one stated it clearly.
——In this way, he has actually taken the lead in this discussion.
The significance is not just as simple as this discussion.
Meng Zhou usually didn't want to be contaminated by these things, and even wanted to get rid of them on his own initiative so that he could practice more relaxedly.
But this does not mean that he will choose this way at any time. At this time, he will do his best.
"I have no objection." Ancestor Mingnan made it clear.
"After receiving the information you provided, we also conducted cross-confirmation with some information collected within the sect.
We also very much agree with the fact that "Xingxiu Palace is about to make a comeback".
Not only that, we also believe that the day when the Xingxiu Palace reappears is likely to be the time when its Nascent Soul comes to attack." Yin Youyi said seriously.
Mu Hanyu and the other ancestor of the Hehuan Sect, a pair of Taoist monks, all nodded slightly in agreement.
Meng Zhou's eyes moved and looked at the five ancestors of Qingxuan Sect sitting together.
Qing Yao was a little helpless, but still said: "I passed on the news. If you don't approve it, how could I do this?"
"So, you don't have any objection?" Meng Zhou asked again.
"No objection." This time, Qingyao was no longer vague and clearly stated Qingxuanzong's attitude.
After a pause, he added: "We have no objection."
In response to his reply, Qingtang, Qingye and others nodded lightly.
Then, Meng Zhou's eyes continued to move.
This method of "passing the test one by one" made the several ancestors of the Alchemy Sect and the Jinding Sect sitting next to each other feel even more stressed.
Finally, they no longer persisted stubbornly.
Ancestor Fengdan said expressionlessly: "We have no objection."
The breath of Patriarch Chushan was slightly thick and hot, as if sparks were being ejected from a burning furnace cavity.
But his answer was perfect and beyond reproach.
"We have no objection."
After all the ancestors of the five sects made their positions clear, Meng Zhou nodded and said:
"Then we can start discussing it now.
…I wonder what you guys think?”
As soon as he asked this question, eighteen pairs of thirty-six eyes all focused on Meng Zhou's face.
Including Mingnan Patriarch, Yin Youyi, and Mu Hanyu, who showed the most determined support for him, were no exception.
Mu Hanyu, who was more emotional, even had some anger in his eyes.
Qing Ye coughed slightly and said helplessly:
“The information you provided really caught us all off guard.
Everyone is very confused now.
After everyone finished their original itinerary, they came to you as soon as possible because they wanted to get a definite idea from you."
You are the first to discover the clues of things.
All the information we got is "second-hand" information, and the time is much later than yours.
More importantly, since you choose to share this information, don’t tell us that you really have no idea at all!
So, you can just play with the routines, but do you really want to tame everyone into your brainless followers?
I don’t know if Meng Zhou understands everyone’s silent thoughts at this moment. He nodded and said:
"If you ask me for ideas, my suggestion is that we can do nothing else, but there is one thing that must be done as soon as possible."
"What's the matter?" All the cultivators became excited.
"Let Xingxiu Palace become blind." Meng Zhou said.
"Um?!"
All the cultivators were stunned at first, and then they all suddenly came to their senses.
After everyone compared the information collected by various companies from various channels, they felt sincere admiration for the ability of "Qihuangzi" and the "Qihuangmen" behind it to obtain information, which can also be said to be terrifying.
Among them, what amazed them the most was the detailed understanding of the four secret forces loyal to Xingxiu Palace, including the Qiao family.
In the past, of course they also knew that among the five realms, there must be secret forces loyal to the Constellation Palace lurking and hiding like hibernating poisonous snakes.
Some even know some rough information.
But that's generally it.
It is far from detailed to the level provided by "Qihuangzi" this time.
Not only are these four secret forces clearly marked, but they also specify the specific distribution of each secret force in the five domains, as well as the list of members who directly belong to these secret forces.
Not only did the pill formation not miss a single one, but also the foundation building and even the Qi training monks didn't miss anything.
And every stronghold they put in the open is disguised, three caves, four caves, five caves...
As long as it is a "rabbit hole", it is clearly marked.
When seeing the information in the jade slips, everyone was extremely horrified by the information-gathering capabilities of the "Qihuangmen".
At the same time, a similar thought came to everyone's mind.
They all suspected that this information was dug out from within the enemy by "Qihuangzi" through some strange means.
Moreover, it was not just one company that was poached, but four.
——Obviously, there is no such thing as exchange of information between these four secret forces. This has no positive meaning except increasing the negative effect of "pulling out the carrot and bringing out the mud".
At this moment, after hearing "Qi Huangzi" say that he wanted to turn Xingxiu Palace into a blind man, after a short period of shock, they all thought about it and even had a specific action plan in their minds.
No matter how powerful the Nascent Soul cultivator is, it is impossible for him to sweep hundreds of thousands of miles around the five realms with just one spiritual thought.
As long as the information provided by "Qihuangzi" is true, as long as all these people can be wiped out with thunderous means, Xingxiu Palace will completely turn a blind eye to the situation in the five regions.
No matter how powerful the Xingxiu Palace is, as long as it can't hit anyone, every hammer will hit the empty space in vain, and the threat will no longer be a threat.
Thinking of this, everyone felt that the pressure brought by Xingxiu Palace was suddenly reduced by at least 70% to 80%.
Some people even couldn't help but want to slap themselves on the head.
Such a simple and effective method, why didn’t I think of it immediately?
It's not that their thinking is slow, but their long-standing thinking habits have made them all subconsciously ignore such a path.
"If we had such powerful information collection capabilities, how could we have allowed them to reach this stage?!"
At this moment, the Jinding Sect's Mountain-Destroying Ancestor suddenly stood up and said: "Then let's start taking action now!"
All the ancestors of Jinding Sect stood up one after another.
More monks stood up.
It can be seen that they are all a little impatient.
The pressure from the Constellation Palace was too great for them. After learning the news, they felt like a thorn in their backs, making them uneasy even when they were walking or sitting.
Even if it is to give themselves a more stable mentality, they don't want to wait any longer.
Under such circumstances, the behavior of Ancestor Mingnan seemed a bit strange.
He didn't stand up.
Sitting cross-legged on the futon, he lowered his head slightly, looking a little confused and hesitant.
Not only him, but several ancestors of the Alchemy Sect performed similarly to him.
Meng Zhou knew what they were hesitating about.
He pressed his hands and signaled Patriarch Deshan and others to calm down.
"Doing things is like playing chess. You can't just take it one step at a time. You have to think about it in the longer term."
Patriarch Deshan and others looked at him suspiciously.
Meng Zhou said: "It is certainly important to destroy the Xingxiu Palace's eyeliners in the five regions and make them blind.
But we must also start thinking now about how to counterattack the power from the Constellation Palace in the future."
As he spoke, Meng Zhou paused and said, "Even if we can't do it now, we still have to reserve the possibility for the future.
Otherwise, even if everyone is lucky enough to escape the attack of the Constellation Palace, if they lack the power to fight back, they will always be able to live like rats in the gutter."
"Moreover, let's not talk about the issue of counterattacking the Xingxiu Palace, we always have to think more about our future cultivation prospects, right?
Once our actions against these four secret forces begin, it will certainly make Xingxiu Palace blind, but it will also make Xingxiu Palace react.
They will inevitably realize that the Five Realms are more dangerous than they thought.
In this case, their plans will have to be adjusted.
Either they were frightened back and refrained from taking any rash actions until the situation in the five regions was ascertained, or they invested more on the original basis and dealt an even greater thunder blow to the five regions.
...Which one do you think they will choose?"
At this moment, the cultivators' expressions became solemn again, and they suddenly realized that the situation was far from as simple as they originally thought.
The Constellation Palace is not a rigid piece of wood that doesn’t know how to adapt.
Any actions they take against Xingxiu Palace now will in turn affect Xingxiu Palace’s decision-making on the five domains.
Meng Zhou paused for a moment to let everyone fully "remember" before asking: "If you were the Xingxiu Palace, how would you choose?"
To be cautious, let's wait and see first and explore the details of the Five Realms more carefully before making a decision?
Therefore, it is good to give it a try and scare it.
But, my Xingxiu Palace, I have Nascent Soul!
Was I scared?
Just when you were about to come out again, you were slapped hard in the face by a group of cheap guys. Are you so shameless?
Even if there are conspiracies and schemes, do I need to care about the plans of a group of alchemy monks?
All calculations are nothing in the face of upright power!
Run over me!
Then, the Five Realms faced an even greater blow, even beyond the Xingxiu Palace’s original plan!
is it possible?
Probably!
What to do?
Shouldn't we take action?
But what is the difference between this and waiting for death?
Everyone was in tangled hesitation and looked at "Qihuangzi" one after another.
Since the question was raised by him, I guess he must have some ideas, and it couldn't be just to scare them.
Meng Zhou said: "Of course we still have to do what needs to be done, but before taking formal action, we should make as many preparations for the future as possible."
He thought he now fully understood the meaning of "Qihuangzi".
The actions against those four secret forces are equivalent to a showdown against the Xingxiu Palace.
This will bring some good changes, and it will also bring some bad changes.
The meaning of "Qihuangzi" is nothing more than to prepare more chips before this showdown.
Faced with the inquiry from Patriarch Chushan, Meng Zhou glanced at Patriarch Mingnan and several ancestors from the Alchemy Sect.
Question: "How many altars have you found so far?"
After hearing this, several people suddenly raised their heads and looked at Meng Zhou.
"Fourteen." Patriarch Mingnan replied.
"In my experience, the harvest cycle of these altars is about ten years.
In other words, as long as your luck is not too bad, there will be a harvest season for the altar in the next few months."
Ancestor Mingnan seemed to realize something and nodded:
"The nearest altar is located in the Jinding Domain. In one and a half months, the phantom of the God of Lihen will arrive and collect the Void God Crystal contained in the incense burner."
Meng Zhou nodded and said:
"In this case, my opinion is to wait another month and a half until we obtain this furnace of Void God Crystal before we start taking action." ()
