Chapter four hundred and fortieth chapter Tianxuan Xuantian
In the Xuantian Gate of Qi State, two Shenxu monks accompanied Qing Nian as they wandered around the gate. They pointed at the surrounding scenic spots and explained them to Qing Nian along the way.
From the expressions of the two of them, it can be seen that they have great enthusiasm and respect for Qing Nian, and it can even be said that they are a little flattering. This makes Qing Nian, who has been having troubles in recent years, feel like a breath of fresh air.
The reason why Qing Nian receives this treatment is not because he is a monk from the first-class sect in Central Continent, but because of his status as Tianxuan Sect. If other sects come, they will not receive this treatment.
As for why Tianxuan Sect monks are treated like this, we have to start with the origins of the two sects, Xuantian and Tianxuan. Some clues can be seen from the names of these two sects.
In fact, this is also true. About hundreds of thousands of years ago, Tianxuan Sect was just an unpopular sect in Central Continent. At that time, Tianxuan Sect was in an extremely difficult situation. Central Continent’s interests had already been divided among the major sects. It was extremely difficult for small forces to break through.
, it is easy to fall into a development bottleneck.
The big sects of Central Continent will also suppress these small forces. The purpose is to implement the strategy of human expansion. This strategy started four hundred thousand years ago. It is not just the Tianxuan Sect that has this treatment. It is to let the small forces of Central Continent have more power in Central Continent.
Development difficulties forced them to go to Nanzhou, Xizhou, Beizhou, Luo Xinghai, and other places to open up the wilderness and expand the living environment for the human race.
This strategy was implemented very well in Central Continent, which is why there is today's situation in the Five Continents Cultivation World. Tianxuan Sect's territory at that time could not support so many disciples, so it kept sending disciples to South Continent for development.
The disciples of Tianxuan Sect came to Nanzhou to overcome obstacles and struggled endlessly. Groups of disciples fell in the battle of monsters and paid a heavy price.
Many batches of disciples were directly destroyed in Nanzhou, but Tianxuan Sect became more and more powerful in Central Continent. Especially every time there was a turmoil in Central Continent, Tianxuan Sect's upper level forces continued to weaken, giving Tianxuan Sect a great opportunity to never fall into the mainstream.
The power has reached third-rate, second-rate, and even today’s first-rate power.
Every time Tianxuan Sect encounters a development bottleneck, it will send disciples to Nanzhou. The entire sect is dormant, waiting for opportunities. The years of waiting are when Tianxuan Sect sends disciples to Nanzhou in large numbers.
As the disciples sent by Tianxuan Sect became stronger and stronger, these disciples gradually established a foothold in Nanzhou. Especially about 30,000 years ago, many talented people emerged from the descendants of these disciples.
, established Xuantianmen, and continued to develop in Qi State, eventually becoming the largest sect in Qi State.
After Xuantianmen grew stronger, the relationship with Tianxuanzong gradually weakened, because Xuantianmen's pretensions also became bigger, and Tianxuanzong's little support could no longer satisfy their appetite. They wanted to invest heavily, but Tianxuanzong's senior officials did not agree. Both parties
The relationship just faded away and we no longer had any contact with each other.
However, more than a thousand years ago, the two parties had more contacts. The reason is that Tianxuan Sect has become a first-class force at this time, and its strength in Central Continent has greatly increased. On the contrary, the development of Xuantian Sect has fallen into a bottleneck.
middle.
Although Qi is the second largest country in Nanzhou, compared with Zhongzhou, Nanzhou is far behind, especially in terms of martial arts, martial arts, sect inheritance, and high-level spiritual objects, but there are too many differences. Xuantianmen has
His strength has allowed him to train his disciples to the stage of divine weakness, but they are unable to go any further.
At this time, Xuantianmen remembered their ancestor Tianxuanzong, so starting more than a thousand years ago, Xuantianmen began to send high-level monks to Tianxuanzong to communicate and transfer benefits in exchange for Tianxuanzong's support.
And Tianxuan Sect accepted them regardless of their past grudges. After all, after reaching the level of a first-class sect, Tianxuan Sect has once again reached a bottleneck in its development. However, Xuantian Sect has good strength and can bring them huge benefits every year, so naturally they are willing to support it.
This resulted in the monks of Xuantianmen wanting to break through to the seventh golden body realm. Tianxuanzong was the best place for them to go. The existing golden body monks of Xuantianmen also had very good relations with the high-level monks of Tianxuanzong.
Therefore, it stands to reason that Qing Nian, the deputy commander of Heishui Terrace, who is considered to be a high-ranking official in Tianxuan Sect, is an honored guest of Xuantian Clan. No one in Xuantian Clan dares to offend Qing Nian easily. On the contrary, they want to curry favor with him. When the time comes,
When they go to Tianxuan Sect, they might have to ask for help.
"Two Taoist brothers, the only purpose of Qing Nian's visit this time is to investigate the case of the Assassin God. You must also know that the Assassin God caused a turmoil in Zhongzhou some time ago."
"Senior Brother Qing Nian, of course we know this. No one thought that the Thorn God was hidden so deeply. After being hit by us repeatedly, he could still hide so many masters. But Senior Brother Qing Nian, the Thorn God would really be in Nanzhou.
?.
Our Southern Continent is not as good as Central Continent. The land is relatively poor. Southern Continent cannot provide resources for high-level monks at all. Generally speaking, we are the only ones who run to Central Continent, and there is no reason to run to South Continent."
"Senior brother is right. The Thorn God has also done things in Nanzhou before, but his cultivation level was not high. It seems that he is only at the spiritual level."
"Two Taoist brothers, this time the level of the monks of the Thorn God in your South Continent is not high. The key is that they are large in number and extremely hidden. I have enough evidence to prove that the Thorn God has been cleared in Nan Continent. There is a bright side.
It has a lot of power, and it has quite a lot of secret power, so I hope the two Taoist brothers can help me find out which power has such people."
"Senior Brother Qing Nian, you are really stumping us. When each sect's power reaches a certain level, they will form a secret force similar to the Black Water Tower to deal with some dirty words for the sect, but everyone does not care about this kind of secret force.
Shang Xin, even our Xuantian Sect has less than a thousand people, and most of its operations are within the scope of Qi State. It is very difficult to investigate the entire Nanzhou."
The monk of Xuantianmen said that the major forces in Southern Continent have secret departments. This is true, but as far as he knows, each sect does not attach great importance to this force. They only use their hands to deal with some things that are inconvenient to deal with openly.
, such as making dirty words and so on.
Therefore, the power of Tianxuanmen basically only operates within the scope of Qi State. Outside Qi State, most of it is in Qin State. The rest of the places are not worthy of Xuantianmen's attention at all. How can it invest its power?
"Two Taoist brothers, please help me. It doesn't matter if you can't find it now. Check it slowly. This matter is extremely important to our Tianxuan Sect. Now our ancestor Liang Wendao of Tianxuan Sect has been framed as the god of assassination. We must do something for Mr. Liang Wendao."
Zu clears the suspicion. If the two Taoist brothers really made great contributions in this matter, I will report it to Liang Wendao Ancestor and record the merits for the two Taoist brothers."
Qing Nian raised the banner without hesitation. The two Shenxu monks looked at each other and had a plan in mind. Qing Nian said so, it would be difficult for Xuan Tianmen to refuse again, and it concerns Liang Wendao.
The Eighth Realm monks definitely want to help. By then, maybe a little benefit from Liang Wendao's hand will be enough for them to enjoy.
Qing Nian was extremely happy with the help of the two people. Half a month later, he left Xuantianmen, but he did not leave Nanzhou. He firmly believed that Iron Lion was hiding in Nanzhou and he had to find it. He had a premonition that
The iron lion will be a key clue. Following the iron lion's line, he may be able to involve the big fish.
Not long after, the secret troops from Blackwater Terrace began to enter Nanzhou. Some took the initiative to appear in Xuantianmen and helped Xuantianmen expand the power of the secret troops. The other part was directly managed by Qing Nian and began to take root in Nanzhou.
This matter must be thoroughly investigated in both overt and covert ways.
·········
After Qing Nian's Blackwater Tower entered Nanzhou, especially after the Qi Kingdom, Ye Xiao's troops set their sights on them. Ye Nanyu personally came to Qi Kingdom and based himself in White Jade City, closely monitoring the Blackwater Tower's troops.
Regardless of the number of monks at Heishui Tower, in terms of professional level, Night Owl is still superior. Moreover, Qi State is the main business area of Night Owl. It has a layout of more than 200 years and cannot be shaken by Blackwater Tower.
.
"Master, it seems that Qing Nian is going to fight with us. The troops we have withdrawn from Central Continent are all stuck in the Qin State and they don't dare to come back. This has cost us a lot."
"When can we go back to Zhongzhou?" "It still takes time. We spent countless manpower, material resources and time on the previous layout. Now it is almost destroyed. We don't know how many people were captured by the Blackwater Platform, so we
To enter Central Continent is equivalent to starting from scratch and requires too many resources to lay the groundwork."
"Nanxuan hasn't approved your application yet?"
"It is impossible for Nanshouzuo to agree to it. He gave us two million Xuanjing support a year before. Now it has to be increased to ten million a year. We have to insist on it for at least ten years. Nanshouzuo will not agree at all.
Nian's craftsmanship was good, but it was all lost in the wilderness.
Li Jiusi has also discovered a lot of minerals in the wilderness buffer zone in recent years. Nan Xuan has continuously invested his energy into the wilderness for these properties. Now he has to invest them all, and there is no time to reap the benefits."
"How much does Nan Xuan promise to give?"
"Three million, I won't accept even a penny more. It's no use even talking."
"Then three million. You Night Owls have a lot of private property these years, so use your wealth. Don't keep thinking about poaching the sect."
"Master, how can we have any private property? It was not enough before, and it is even less enough now."
"Before, you didn't have Lingguang monks, but now you have them. Lingguang monks should not just get something for nothing, but have to find ways to create benefits. I won't talk to you about this now. What should I do with Qing Nian? He must not be allowed to find out about Tiansheng Sect.
Now our Tiansheng Sect cannot even stop the Xuantian Sect, let alone the Tianxuan Sect, so we must resolve this matter."
Lin Xiao's eyes were full of killing intent. If Qing Nian really found out about the Tiansheng Sect, he wouldn't mind killing Qing Nian to cut off the clues. However, this was the last option. The best option was to let Ye Xiao
Go fight with them, completely defeat Blackwater Tower, and drive them out of Nanzhou's territory.
Lin Xiao also believes that Ye Xiao has this strength. Nanzhou is Ye Xiao's home base. If he still can't win, then Lin Xiao will be very disappointed.
