The city area where Lingkong Hall is located is called Fengtai.
It is considered one of the largest cities in Chengdu.
There are two worlds here, black and white. In the night world, the rapidly expanding Wusheng Sect and Lingkong Temple compete with each other.
One is a fanatical believer who is not afraid of death, the other is a man who has been operating for many years and is deeply rooted.
On the surface, the City Lord's Mansion is of course the highest authority here.
The imperial court of Chengguo even made an exception and sent a monk from Wailou Realm to serve here in order to suppress the further expansion of the sect's power.
The country next door, Zhuang State, was growing in strength. The threshold for serving as city lord in various places was the cultivation level of the inner palace.
But Chengguo has its own national conditions after all.
On the one hand, these sects provide a large amount of tax revenue for the country, and on the other hand, they are also part of the national strength. When a war occurs, they are all obliged to participate in the war.
Therefore, how to grasp the scale of suppression is a matter that tests the political level.
Wusheng Cult and Lingkong Temple also need to let the Chengguo court know that they are within limits and there will be no risk of crossing the line.
As one of the seventy-two earth evil envoys of Wu Sheng Sect, he was ordered to develop the religious backbone of believers in the country.
The Envoy of Diyou is a being who has perfected the five palaces and possesses supernatural powers. It can be said that he single-handedly suppressed Lingkong Temple. If the city lord named Li hadn't pulled the trigger, he would have driven Lingkong Temple out long ago.
Got here.
However, it is only a matter of time.
The Wusheng Cult behind him already has the power to destroy the country. He is boiling frogs in warm water here, just to implement the will of the God Lord, to keep a low profile for the time being, and not to want to break up with the Chengguo court.
Although the Inanimate Religion is great, it is not the time to step into the sunshine now. The world is ignorant, and the truth cannot be obtained in a day.
At this moment, he was sitting alone in the secret room, facing the shrine, reciting the Sutra of No Life.
In this pale white shrine, there is a faceless wooden statue of a god sitting cross-legged.
There are three white candles on each side of the shrine, arranged in order from high to short, corresponding to each other neatly.
There is no sandalwood for worshiping gods.
I don’t know what material the white candle is made of, but it burns faintly without tears. The candle flame leaps in the air, but there is a faint fragrance floating in it.
This is probably the unity of incense and fire in Wu Sheng Sect.
It's more like condolences than an offering.
"I came from the sea of suffering and floated in my skin. All those who suffered six defeats and seven lives were ill. Those who suffered three sorrows and eight sufferings are innocent people. The common people have mercy on me, and I pity the common people..."
The evil chanting sound was thin and dense, and it lasted for a long time before it stopped.
The two rows of white candles also went out automatically.
Just as the candles were extinguished, a tall figure appeared in the secret room. With just the right timing, he slapped the Diyou messenger on the head before he even got up!
Like mountains and seas, you can immediately see the pressure of life and death!
At this time, the Diyou Messenger had no time to react. He only raised his head suddenly, and his dark eyes instantly turned white. In that chilling white color, it seemed that an unknown world had opened up. It can be called a surging power.
It poured back and surged in this body. In one ten thousandth of a moment, he caught the vitality and rushed forward——
No movement!
A tsunami was set off in his sky-high sea, and his blood, muscles, and bones... his whole person was imprisoned by breezes of different shapes.
Bang!
The tall figure slapped it down with a palm, directly smashing the head of the Diyou messenger!
Black, white and red, all mixed together.
The body lay exhausted on the ground.
The two rows of white candles standing in front of the pale shrine rekindled almost at the same time.
The strange faceless statue had two drops of blood coming out where its eyes should be.
The evil breath is coming!
The tall figure was completely fearless. He took one step forward, holding the hammer in both hands, and fell down like a mountain!
The vitality mixed with the five elements flows around his arms, and the power from the outer building level pours out without reservation.
The two rows of white candles are extinguished at the same time.
Click!
The idol was torn into pieces.
Fragments of a place.
The tall figure turned around immediately without looking, pushed the door open and walked out of the secret room.
He calmly walked left and right in this station, ignoring the patrolling believers. He left the house, walked to the courtyard, and with a slight jump, he was on the roof.
The body quickly shrunk in the air and turned into a yellow talisman, which was clamped by two slender fingers.
Jiang Wang, who was wearing a cloak and linen clothes and sitting on the ridge of the roof, quietly took a look at the yellow talisman and was very satisfied with its performance. He held the yellow paper and shook it gently before putting it away.
It is indeed a product of the Immortal Palace that once dominated an era!
It wouldn't be in vain for Jiang to kill demons in a bloody battle in Duanhun Gorge and risk his life digging for jade in the mountains and seas.
This fairy palace warrior is really easy to use!
With him cooperating with the dragon and tiger skills from a distance, the Earthly Messenger didn't even have a chance to resist.
And with the Immortal Palace warriors coming forward, Zhang Linchuan would not be able to trace him even if the Wusheng Sect had any special means.
Even if he is as powerful as a fortune teller and a devil, he must not be able to predict the fairy palace. So what about Zhang Linchuan?
Asgardian warriors don't ask anything, don't say anything, they just kill people when they appear and leave after killing them. This is also to cut off clues.
But then again...
Jiang Wang finally got a clue of the so-called "supernatural power" of the Earthly Envoy.
If the speculation is true, it is all related to Zhang Linchuan...
It is not inconceivable that all of the seventy-two earth evil messengers have "supernatural powers".
The Inanimate Cult may be more powerful than imagined.
Without anyone realizing it, a terrifying monster has been born in the dark night.
On such a night, Jiang Wang sat silently on the roof, quietly observing the Wu Sheng Sect's station.
Behind him is a bright moon.
The moonlight shines in the night.
Not long after, the wide-open door was seen by a patrolman, and the Diyou Messenger who died tragically in the secret room was discovered.
This is the leader of the Wusheng Cult in Chengguo. In the hearts of all the believers here, he is a great being who carries out the will of the gods! He is also invincible and invincible.
But he actually died silently.
The death was extremely miserable.
Warning sounds, shouts, movements caused by the magic circle...
The entire Wusheng Sect's station was in chaos, with people constantly rushing in and out. The chaotic lights illuminated the place in a bright light.
But Jiang Wang, who was sitting on the roof, was not noticed by anyone.
In his right hand, he held a book called "History of Cutting the Sea with a Sword", which of course he had read while waiting... He held the Dou Seal in his left hand, and his whole body was covered by a layer of dim light.
The moonlight flows through him and through him.
Bi Fang's seal method focuses on "Dharma". Under the guidance of Huai Guogong, Jiang Wang used it to further condense the magical spiritual aspect of Samadhi True Fire.
As for the Disaster Seal, it is used for "hiding". It can hide oneself internally, and contain the enemy's power externally. In fact, it is also a supreme method.
Jiang Wang's concealment skills have always been very ordinary, relying on the concealment clothes made by Xiaofan's mother-in-law to support the scene. Now that he has mastered the Dou Seal, he can be regarded as leaping through the dragon's gate, and the world is very different.
The Diyou envoy has been killed. The reason why Jiang Wang is still sitting here is, firstly, to find out if there are any strong people hiding in this station. Secondly, he wants to see if there will be any characters like the Tiangang envoy from the Wusheng Sect coming to support him.
.
But after observing for a long time, I only saw a swarm of bees and heard a lot of noise.
It doesn't look like a force that can aspire to be the strongest sect in the country.
Without the Earthly Messenger, they seemed to have lost their eyes, nose, ears, and brain.
Of course Jiang Wang can judge from this——
Zhang Linchuan's construction of Wu Sheng Cult is a top-down one-way node control. The disadvantage of this is that the organizational strength is not cohesive enough. The scattered strongholds in various places actually work independently.
But the advantage of this is that... any section can be cut off at any time. If any stronghold is wiped out, it will not be traced back to Zhang Linchuan.
This is also the invisibility that this kind of leftist force must possess.
Otherwise, if you provoke any strong person at any time, he will be followed and wiped out.
The disadvantages of this organizational structure actually do not have much impact as far as the cult is concerned. If Zhang Linchuan is strong enough, he can use the power of "god" to directly communicate with every believer. By then, all cohesion will be there
.
The Wusheng Sect can no longer develop so smoothly, otherwise Zhang Linchuan's power will expand too quickly!
Now it seems that before the arrival of the new Disha messengers, the Wusheng Sect in Chengguo has nothing to worry about.
But Zhang Linchuan's roots hidden in the shadows still inevitably cast a shadow in Jiang Wang's heart.
Especially the Sutra of No Life recited by the Earthly Envoy during his secret prayers.
Six defeats and seven lives, there are sick beings. Three sorrows and eight sufferings, innocent people. The common people have mercy on me, I have mercy on the common people...
It was not that he was deceived by the scriptures.
Even the classics of the sages cannot shake his Taoist heart now.
It's just that...the most important thing in the realm of Wailou is the word "telling the truth".
Jiang Wang, who was already close to the highest level of the outer building, could definitely tell what such a "Sutra of No Life" meant.
At this time, Jiang Wang completely understood why Wang Changji immediately revealed his strength and wiped out all Wu Sheng Sect strongholds in the Jiao Kingdom as soon as he achieved Divine Presence.
Except it's a declaration of war...
In fact, time cannot wait for us!
Zhang Linchuan is by no means a figure who only knows how to play conspiracies, and he cannot be said to be another hero in troubled times like Zhuang Chengqian.
Taking one last look at the chaotic Wusheng Cult station, Jiang Wang stood up, jumped up, and disappeared into the night.
…
…
A mysterious strong man came to Fengtai City, and he killed the strongest Taoist Bai Nie in Lingkong Palace and the Earthly Envoy of Wu Sheng Sect with one move.
Overnight, the two sects that had been fighting for days stopped.
It attracted the attention of both the government and the public.
There are rumors that he was a high-ranking official secretly sent by the Chengguo court. In order to curb the expansion of the sect's power, he killed people and eliminated the source of chaos.
There are rumors that he is a powerful man who lives in seclusion in the local area. Seeing the constant disputes between the two forces, which made the people restless, he started to kill the strongest man on both sides as a warning...
But these rumors, these stories that are talked about in the spiritual world of Chengguo, Lord Jiang can no longer hear.
Since the meeting of the Yellow River, he has only compared himself with the top figures in the world, and even traced back history to verify the past and present. For example, the ordinary monks who were domineering in the little-known Cheng Kingdom were already in a trance with him.
Not in the same world.
At the peak of spiritual practice, every time you climb one level, you will see a completely different scenery.
Passed by by chance.
It's nothing more than walking in the world of mortals, and being struck by a sword.
…
…
Since the beginning of the Daoist calendar, officialdom has flourished and the national system has prevailed.
As of today, three thousand nine hundred and twenty years ago, many countries have been established in the world.
But outside of the powerful nations, there are still some powerful sects that span history and the world.
Inheriting the immortal lineage is still proving the end of practice.
In the sense of space, Guan Dao has flourished for a while. But in the scale of time, it may not be eternal.
Time will verify the power that is truly worthy of survival.
There is no other place in the world where so many powerful sects can coexist as in the Southern Region.
From Blood River Sect, Jiange, to Longmen Academy, Xumi Mountain, to Mugu Academy, Nandou Hall... they are all famous sects in the world.
There are certainly historical reasons for this, and it also explains the prosperity of the spiritual practice community in the Southern Region since ancient times.
People in the world have many opinions about the location of Nandou Hall. Some say it is in the Wei State, some are in the Li State, or some are said to be in the Yue State, to name a few.
Because this sect is really mysterious. It is not like the sword pavilion that stands as a sword and controls dangerous passes. It is not like the world's best swordsman. It is also not like Mugu Academy, which is located at the foot of Shushan, the holy land of Confucianism.
Beautiful article.
It's not like Longmen Academy looking at Guanhe Terrace in the distance, or like Blood River Zongyong Town's misfortunes.
Nandou Hall is more like Mount Sumeru, where the divine dragon sees its head but not its tail.
The reputation spreads far and wide, but the authenticity remains unclear.
But to say that he is a secluded person is not in line with the style of this sect.
After all, a person like Lu Shuanghe, the Seven Killers, had a reputation gained from being killed in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
The difference lies in...
Although Nandou Hall is one of the largest sects in the world, it does not recruit a wide range of disciples, but... is unusually free to follow one's wishes.
Si Ming, Tian Liang, Tian Ji, Tian Tong, Tian Xiang, Qisha, whoever is in the mood of the six great masters will go to the world, and whoever they like will be brought back to the sect.
Basically they are passed down from generation to generation.
Of course, you can also accept a few more apprentices, and there doesn't seem to be any problem if you don't accept any apprentices.
All in all, very willful.
Of course, the real location of Nandou Hall is not in any one of Wei, Li, Yue, and Song Dynasties, otherwise it would be a question of who is in charge.
Practitioners who have truly lived in the Southern Region will know that to the west of Li State, to the south of Wei State, and to the north of Mugu Academy...
There is a place called Duer Peak.
This location cannot be seen on any country's map.
However, with this peak as the center, everything within a radius of a hundred miles is designated as a restricted area by surrounding forces.
In fact, this is just the entrance to Nandou Hall.
This sect does not really have a presence in this world.
Of course, as the largest sect in the world, Nandou Palace also has many ancillary industries, has its own resource needs, and has relatively close relations with surrounding countries... However, the core of this sect has always been a few people.
It’s the so-called Six Truths of the Southern Dou.
Under the blue sky and snowy clouds.
Between the secluded valleys.
There is a clear stream that meanders by itself.
The water in the stream is so clear that you can see the bottom of the water, and you can see how the swimming fish pass through the aquatic plants.
There is a bluestone beside the stream.
Sitting on the stone was a man with white hair and a shawl.
He put his hands on his knees and let the breeze blow his hair without saying a word. His closed eyes were like two horizontal swords.
A very dull and silent sword.
At a certain moment, there was a slight change in the world.
Like a wisp of wind passing through the floating leaves, like a drop of water immersed in the glimmer of light, like the sound of wild geese coming from far away, one thousandth of a breath late... In short, they are all things that should not be noticed, even
It's something that is completely natural.
The world is always changing.
But the man sitting cross-legged on the bluestone opened his eyes——
His sword is drawn.
