In the secret room, there were a total of fifteen monks wearing black robes and masks.
Their mask styles vary.
There are masks depicting strange patterns and looking like ferocious faces.
There is also half a mask with strange texture patterns painted on it, while the other half is a blank mask.
There is also a pure black mask with dark red coloring around the eyes to deepen the image of the eye sockets.
But what is very special is that the masks on these people's faces are obviously different in color, pattern, and pattern, but anyone can easily recognize the identity and status represented by this mask just by looking at it.
The man at the head of the long table is wearing a golden mask.
The patterns on the mask seem to give people an inscrutable sense of majesty.
Emperor Jin.
This is the name of this mask, and also the identity of the person wearing the mask at this moment.
He is the leader of their group.
At this time, he listened to the arguments and quarrels among the others in the secret room, but never said a word, as if he was in a trance.
But others took it for granted, and no one asked him for his views or opinions.
Thousands of years have passed.
The number of members among them increases and decreases.
Some people are unable to break through their shackles, and in the end they can only face the limit they have reached, and either die unwillingly or die contentedly.
Some people died due to various reasons, either while exploring the world, or seeking personal grudges, etc.
At its peak, there were thirty-one of them.
But now, there are only fifteen people left.
They have new companions joining, and old companions leaving. Of course, there are also some new companions who have taken over the masks of the old companions and become "new people".
But only the five people sitting at the head of the long table and the first two seats on the left and right sides have never been replaced.
The Golden Emperor, the God of War, the Moon Immortal, the Master, and the Judge.
"The opening of the Sword Sect's secret realm was your handiwork, right?"
Suddenly, Jin Di spoke.
The originally chaotic sounds were all eliminated in an instant.
It wasn't that Emperor Jin suppressed the voice with magical powers, but the moment he spoke, everyone stopped arguing.
The person at the head of the table on the left nodded.
This man was wearing a mask made of an unknown material. It was entirely silver-white, with a dark-black color depicting a pattern that gave a simple impression.
God of war.
With the tyranny of force, he is superior to everyone in the secret room.
It is said that only the Golden Emperor can compete with him.
"What a pity." Jin Di shook his head.
"It is indeed a pity." The God of War nodded lightly, "Ye Jinxuan of Taiyi Valley broke through too quickly. With her and Tang Shiyun joining forces, the card of Sword Sect Secret Realm is no longer effective... But if the water is muddied, it is not a problem.
There is no other way, but at most it can only make Taiyigu feel sick, and it will not achieve its original purpose."
"Where did Huang Zi come from?" The chief person on the right side of the long table suddenly said, "Who is that person named Zhang Wujiang?"
Her voice was cold, but her voice was soft.
The mask is also silver-white in color, but does not have any patterns. There is only a blooming golden plum blossom pattern between the eyebrows.
Moon Fairy.
"Zhang Wujiang, a retreating disciple of the former Tiangong Palace Master." The man sitting to the right of Yuexian, who was the second seat on the right side of the long table, suddenly spoke, "Martial God, you didn't handle the matter cleanly at the beginning.
"
The mask worn by the speaker has a black base and gold, silver, and red colors on top to depict the image of a solemn-faced man.
There is an awe-inspiring and upright temperament about him.
This man was also one of the original five elders.
Judge.
"The Tiangong is huge, so it's normal for a few fish to slip through the net." God of War replied calmly, "As long as the people on the list are not let go."
"But Black and White is dead." The judge's tone became colder, "The person who died was not yours, so it's normal, right?"
The God of War didn't reply.
But the momentum in the secret room suddenly changed.
An overbearing and fierce energy rushed straight towards the judge without any warning.
But when it came within an inch of the judge's face, it suddenly condensed into a layer of frost.
In an instant, a frost like a warhammer formed on the long table between the Martial God and the judge: the warhammer-like side was less than an inch away from the judge's eyes, while the handle-like part was less than an inch away from the Martial God's eyes.
The next second.
The frost war hammer was filled with cracks and then shattered. Then the ice crystals melted and turned into wisps of blue smoke that dissipated in the air.
The God of War turned his head and glanced at Yuexian.
"So, Huang Zi and Zhang Wujiang are both remnants of the Heavenly Palace?"
Yuexian ignored the Martial God and continued to ask as if he was indifferent.
The God of War remained silent.
The judge was also silent.
"According to the informant, Zhang Wujiang is at least in the Bitter Sea Realm, and to be able to be taken into the eyes of the former Palace Master as a closed disciple, his real strength must not be weak. Except for the thirteen of us, I am afraid that no one is hers.
rival."
Seeing that the atmosphere in the secret room gradually became silent and depressing, the person sitting on the second seat on the left side of the long table to the left of the God of War had no choice but to speak.
Because among the thirteen people present, except for the transcendent Jin Emperor, there was only one person left who was qualified to discuss with the God of War, the Moon Immortal, and the Judge.
Master.
His mask seems to be made of wood, slightly quaint, and has a restrained charm.
Although he is a master, his aura does not have a majestic aura, but a strong evil aura. The space around him is even aroused by this, and the cold aura emanating from him is like a ghost.
This is also the reason why he sits in the second left seat on the Martial God side instead of the second right seat on the Yuexian side.
During the Second Era, a dynasty was established, and then there was a separation of civil and military affairs, among which Wen Zuo was the most respected.
But above the dynasty, there is a heavenly court that establishes order and claims to govern all living things in the mysterious world in order to prevent the end of the first era. Therefore, although there are civil and military divisions, Wu Zuo is respected.
The layout in the secret room at this time is Wu Zuo Wenyou.
It's just that there is no theory of Zuo Zun in this secret room, it is just a simple division of positions.
But it is precisely because of the position theory that the judge was threatened by the God of War, and the Moon Immortal of the same camp took it upon himself to help.
And similarly, at this time, Yuexian's question was about serious business, and Wu Shen was too domineering to answer, so Master naturally had to answer.
"Zhang Wujiang must have been imprisoned by the Black and White Soul Seducer before, so Huang Zi killed the Black and White Soul Seducer just to save his junior sister..."
"Zhang Wujiang is a man." The judge suddenly spoke, interrupting the master's speculation.
Everyone in the secret room was stunned.
"Why does the eyeliner say she is a woman?"
"Two possibilities." The judge said calmly, "First, she is not the real Zhang Wujiang. As you said before, she is a prisoner of the Black and White Soul Seducer. She was released after Huang Zi killed the Black and White Soul Seducer. But
It is very possible that her mind is damaged, so Huang Zi named her Zhang Wujiang in memory of his junior brother, so her real strength may not be as good as Zhang Wujiang. If this guess is true, then naturally there is no need for us to take action."
"Second..." Although the Master is sitting on the second seat to Wu Zuo, since he can be named "Master", he is not stupid.
What's more, if one has reached their level of cultivation, how can anyone be stupid?
His knowledge and experience are certainly not weak.
Therefore, the master followed the judge's train of thought and said: "Zhang Wujiang has become a ghost cultivator, or he has taken someone else's body..."
"Supreme Bitter Sea, is it possible?"
In the secret room, someone finally couldn't help but refute.
As we all know, ghost cultivators have no hope of achieving greatness in their lifetime.
Therefore, if ghost cultivators want to attain the Great Dao and reach the other side, they must either create a physical body for themselves, or they can only take other people's bodies and use them for their own use.
In most normal situations where there is a choice, ghost cultivators would rather create a physical body for themselves, because this is the body that best suits their own aura, and there will never be any problems such as sequelae.
And the method of seizing the body...
Not to mention that it is not easy to find a body with sufficient potential, it is not easy to completely kill the opponent's soul. And the most important thing is that the method of seizing the body can often only target monks below the earthly fairyland.
Otherwise, it is very likely that there will be many sequelae, and it will take hundreds of years to eliminate the impact of these sequelae, not to mention that after the body is taken away, whatever the physical body is, it will be the same as itself.
There is no such thing as a Dao-based realm monk who can seize the body-opening orifice realm and immediately return to the Tao-based realm.
It is normal to return to the path of spiritual practice.
But Zhang Wujiang is a Venerable in the Sea of Bitterness Realm, which means that if she were to seize the body, then she would have to prepare a physical body of a Venerable in the Sea of Bitterness Realm.
As for the monks in the Earthly Immortal Realm, it is almost impossible to seize the body.
Not to mention the Venerable Master in the Sea of Bitterness?
"If it were anyone else, it would definitely be impossible." The master said softly, "But that person is Huang Zi, Huang Zi from Taiyi Valley, one of the five emperors of the human race, and the number one person in the Xuan Realm."
"Huh." The God of War snorted coldly, but his expression was a bit disdainful.
"You lost the martial arts battle." Yuexian revealed his shortcomings mercilessly.
"Limited by the rules of the Mysterious Realm, it is difficult for me to exert my full strength." The God of War said coldly, "If in the Ten Thousand Realms, I destroy one realm regardless of the rules, I will kill Huang Zi... He is just a waste who has only learned a sword.
, so we can only dominate in the mysterious world."
"That's enough."
At this time, Emperor Jin suddenly commented: "In the Xuan Realm, at least you and I must work together to be sure of killing him, but some price must be paid. Now it is impossible to kill Huang Zi without paying the price.
No matter how many people work together, the only difference is whether the price to be paid is light or heavy... Even though you severely injured him in the Tiangong incident, you allowed him to escape.
Suffering."
When Emperor Jin spoke, God of War no longer refuted.
In fact, no matter he, Jin Emperor, Yuexian, Master, or Judge, none of them thought that Huang Zi, who was not a rival to the God of War back then, could actually grow to such a terrifying level in five thousand years.
So high that due to the constraints of rules in the mysterious world, they are simply no match for them.
At least, in a one-on-one duel situation, if they faced Huang Zi, they would be doomed if they didn't show their trump card.
And if the trump card is revealed, it will only be the result of both of them falling.
But given their status, no one wants to be with Huang Zidizi.
"and……"
Others looked at Jin Emperor.
"It's not necessarily that we are the only ones who have a trump card. Huang Zi doesn't have one, right?" Jin Di said lightly, "I have met him once in the world... Since he can freely enter and leave the world, how about you?
Why do you think he didn't get some other inheritance in the world? And if he didn't have the inheritance, how could he dare to be an enemy of our Peeping Immortal Alliance?"
Everyone was silent.
"Continue." Jin Di shook his head and did not want to mention Huang Zi again.
"I personally prefer the second point." The judge said, "Zhang Wujiang didn't hear any news later. He might have died in the Heavenly Palace. But after that, his soul... should have been captured by the black and white soul seducer. Huang
Zi doesn’t know where
After receiving the news, he killed the black and white seducers to rescue Zhang Wujiang, and then... prepared a body like this for him... Based on Huang Zizhi's character, he should have prepared such a body before rescuing him.
Zhang Wujiang’s.”
"I don't think so." Master shook his head, "I think this is more like Li Daitao's method of stiffness."
Among the other people present, only a few people knew the true identity of Master, but they did know what the identity of the word "Master" represented in the Peeping Immortal Alliance.
Soldier, counselor.
Therefore, it is not uncommon for him to use the term "Li Dai Tao Jian" to describe it metaphorically.
"Su Anran is too high-profile in the Xuan Realm, and...has ruined several of our secret arrangements. If he is really destined to be a natural disaster as Wanshilou said, then we can only admit that we are unlucky." Master slowly said
Said, "But what if...all this is Huang Zi's layout?"
Everyone was suddenly shocked.
Even Jin Emperor couldn't help but straighten his posture, and the aura on his body changed, no longer as lazy and casual as before.
"continue."
"Why did Huang Zi accept nine disciples who were all women, but only this tenth disciple is a man?" The master continued, "I agree with the judge's statement, that is, Zhang Wujiang was a black and white soul seducer before.
It was Huang Zi who rescued the prisoner and prepared a body for him for the resurrection of Zhang Wujiang."
"but……"
"Why didn't Huang Zi take any action before, but waited until Su Anran began to gradually emerge in the mysterious world before he suddenly killed the black and white seducer? With Huang Zi's status, he really wanted to get it
Such a soulless body
It's not difficult to get a body, right? But he has never taken any action. In the past three thousand years, the only time he made a move was to steal the secret book of Wandao Palace. As a result, he got into a fight with Wandao Palace, and finally ended up with Gu Sicheng.
I don’t know you."
"Furthermore, if the black and white seducers really imprisoned Zhang Wujiang's soul, judge, as their superior, they must report this to you, right? But you have not received any report so far.
, then isn’t the result quite obvious?”
All the monks in the secret room were silent.
But judging from their eyes, it was obvious that these people were already thinking about the possibility of what Confucius said.
"Let's make a hypothesis."
The Master spoke again.
Everyone's spirits began to become focused.
"Su Anran, who is Zhang Wujiang?"
Everyone's eyes instantly became sharp.
Outsiders may not know the meaning of this sentence, and just regard it as an ordinary sentence without much meaning.
But they are the top leaders of the Peeping Fairy Alliance and the decision-making level of the entire Peeping Fairy League.
Therefore, they naturally understood the subtext behind the Master's words.
reincarnation.
In the past, the reason why the heavens were superior to all living beings in the second era and claimed to have jurisdiction over all the spirits in the mysterious world was because they established the order of heaven and earth, divided humans, ghosts, monsters, spirits and even monsters from other living beings in the world, and even created a universal system.
Various techniques in the mysterious world, and the path to ascension to heaven.
From mortals to monks, from monks to immortals, there are laws for everyone.
They are the front line against all enemies outside the realm of heavenly demons and even the mysterious realm.
But later.
The immortals in the Heavenly Court have degenerated and become existences that are truly superior to the monks and mortals. They even strictly set the quota for the monks to be promoted to the Heavenly Court, and even began to exploit the Mysterious World, even the monks, mortals, etc.
As a result, the heavenly palace was destroyed by the monks who gathered to attack.
Not only was the path to ascension to immortality cut off, but even the path to reincarnation was completely destroyed.
From now on, there is no longer the so-called theory of "reincarnation" in the mysterious world.
Regardless of whether you are a monk or a mortal, after you die, your soul will naturally be scattered. No matter how pure your cultivation is, it can only protect your physical body from decay for thousands of years, but the final result is that your true energy will turn into spiritual energy again and give back to the origin of the world.
But no matter how you say it, the sentence "the body cannot disappear into reincarnation after death" has gradually become a common knowledge among monks in the occult world.
If they weren't the Peeping Immortal Alliance.
If they hadn't obtained the classics that recorded the theory of heaven in the early second era.
If not...
They don't even know that reincarnation is really a reality in the mysterious world, and there are also special deduction methods that can find reincarnations.
If Master's inference is correct, it means that Tai Yigu, or Huang Zi, must have some kind of special secret method of reincarnation that can even find this reincarnated person!
"If Su Anran is the real Zhang Wujiang, then Taiyigu's heavy protection for him will make sense."
"Why did the person 'Zhang Wujiang' get introduced just when Su Anran was gradually gaining fame?"
"In this way, many things will be explained clearly."
"For example...why is Su Anran practicing so fast? Because he is Zhang Wujiang, the former disciple of the Palace Master of Tiangong, and he has excellent talent."
"Why is Su Anran so unique in swordsmanship? Because he is Huang Zi's junior brother. In order to conceal the identity of the remnants of the Heavenly Palace, Huang Zi asked him to learn swordsmanship."
"Huang Zi must know that our Peeping Immortal League will see through his identity sooner or later, and we will also be able to discover his connection with some remnants of the Heavenly Palace, which will allow us to catch some clues, so he introduced such a 'Zhang Wujiang' to attract us
Attention... It's just a pity that he doesn't know that anyone on our side knows that Zhang Wujiang is a male, not a female, so this situation..."
"Broken."
"We were one step ahead of Huang Zi."
"But it's useless to see through this." The monk with a ferocious mask said in a deep voice, "Tang Shiyun and Ye Jinxuan joined forces, and the situation in the Sword Sect's secret realm was also broken. We encouraged the demon
The Alliance teamed up with the Nanzhou Demon Clan to try to release the Lord of the Heavenly Demons, but was also destroyed by Taiyi Valley... Even Shangguan Xin was already in the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield two hundred years ago, and I suspect this is also Huang Zi's plan."
"really."
"Even if we see through this, there's nothing we can do."
Someone seconded the suggestion.
"Just because we can't do it now, doesn't mean we can't do it in the future." Master shook his head, "If Huang Zi intends to use this as bait to lure us in the future, we don't have to be fooled. Or we can simply use the trick to completely defeat Huang Zi's army.
Destroy these remnants of the Heavenly Palace."
"Now all this is just based on your inference." The judge shook his head, "As for the specific truth, we are still looking at it in the fog."
"Just let the eyeliner test it out." Master said slowly, "If this 'Zhang Wujiang' shows stronger strength than our eyeliner, although it may not necessarily mean that my deduction is wrong, at least we can guard against it.
But if this 'Zhang Wujiang' is not as powerful as our spy, then it will be enough to prove that my inference is correct."
"But don't forget, Tang Shiyun is also at the Sword Sect's secret realm, and Ye Jinxuan has also left Taiyi Valley and is heading to the Sword Sect's secret realm." Yuexian suddenly said, "Tang Shiyun once promised that he would be on the list of peerless sword immortals within five years.
This also means that she is already on the edge of the Daoji Realm. Maybe if she has an epiphany in the secret realm of the Sword Sect this time, she is likely to break through to the Daoji Realm immediately. At that time, what we need to face is a more difficult situation.
enemy."
"We can't kill them." God of War knew what Yuexian meant and shook his head slightly, "Unless one of us here takes action, or can encourage all the other sword cultivating sects who went to the secret realm of the Sword Sect to join forces, we can't surround and kill Tang Shiyun and Ye Jinxuan.
...Don’t forget the tragedy that these two people caused in the Tianyuan Secret Realm.”
"Then...we can only look at the layout of Tianshan Secret Realm?"
"When Shangguan Xin returns, she will definitely go to the Tianshan Secret Realm this time. The one who is known as the Little Martial Emperor is probably no one among her peers and in the same realm who can be her opponent, so even if we have planned the Tianshan Mountains in advance, it will still be of no avail.
." Wu Shen's voice was a little dull, "Originally, this game was aimed at Wang Yuanji, but now it seems that we have to do the tail docking process, and we can't let Tai Yigu touch our tail."
"Nanzhou Rebellion, Jianzong Secret Realm, Tianshan Secret Realm, all three games were defeated. It seems that our luck has not come yet." Jin Di suddenly laughed, "Forget it, since the time has not come yet, then we will wait a little longer.
Wait, five thousand years have passed anyway, and we don’t care about the gain or loss... At least we found out that there are still remnants in the Heavenly Palace, right? How are other things going?"
"Although we succeeded in completely dividing Lingshan, the Great Sun Tathagata Sect cannot be won over." Someone said, "Xiao Leiyin Temple has no contact with us at all. If we really want to win over the Buddhist sect, we can only start with the Huanxi Sect.
."
"Yes." Jin Di nodded.
"The same is true for Wanjian Tower... We have tried it out. According to the reports from our informants who were ambushing in Wanjian Tower, the relationship between Yin Lingzhu and Huang Zi is far closer than we imagined, so we want to encourage Wanjian Tower and Taiyi
It is unrealistic to have conflict between valley and rise."
"Dahuang City has accepted Taiyi Valley's love this time, and it is impossible for it to conflict with Taiyi Valley's disciples... Tiandao Sect may give it a try, and there is also Shenyuan Villa."
Two more people spoke.
"Then let's include Wanjian Tower as our enemy target, find a way to find something for them to do, and by the way, get in touch with Beihai Sword Island and Hidden Sword Pavilion." Jin Di thought for a while, and then said, "There is no need for Shenyuan Villa.
Pay attention, that old monkey's stomach
You are talking loudly. I contacted Tiandao Sect for a try. Xingjun deduced that Tiandao Sect has had a blood evil spirit recently, and the sect's luck has been weakened. All signs point to Huang Zi, and Huang Zi should be the one who killed Tiandao Sect.
An important person gave this news to Tiandaomen."
"The relationship between the Confucian sects and the Baijiayuan sect has become more serious because of Shangguan Xin's killing of the great elder of Tingfeng Shu Pavilion."
"Then let them be more serious." Jin Di said calmly, "Encourage these people to go to the secret realm of Tianshan Mountain to make trouble with Guan Xin. It is best to force Shangguan Xin to go on a killing spree."
"Then over there with the Demon Alliance..."
"Nanzhou lost this time. That idiot Rose fell into Huang Zi's divorce plan. Recently, she and the old dragon king have been having some trouble. This has made the old dragon start to waver. Don't contact him for the time being." Jin
The emperor reached out and knocked on the table, thinking deeply
After a while, he said, "Go and get in touch with Zhen Yu. This woman is a little behind the times. We can provide her with some pills that can quickly restore her strength and encourage her to continue causing chaos in Taiyi Valley. It is best to design a plan to let the old Dragon King also
Get into the water together."
In a few words, Emperor Jin finished handling the affairs reported by all members one by one, and also gave a new policy plan.
These things seem to be just trivial matters. If singled out individually, they would not make much sense, nor would they make waves. They would not even give people any deliberate feeling.
But if all the things are gathered together, it is not difficult to find that there is a huge net rushing toward Taiyi Valley.
Emperor Jin's idea is very simple. Since Taiyi Valley has such strong luck, he will find a way to keep Taiyi Valley busy. If it can provoke the anger of the people in the Xuan Realm and cause the backlash of heaven, that would be the best. Even if it can't, this
One trouble after another comes one after another, which is enough to reduce Taiyigu's three-point luck.
And the most terrifying thing is that none of these things have any connection. They look very natural, with almost no human traces. No one can find any traces. Even if someone uses this to deduce the secret, they will never point to them.
A glimpse of the Immortal Alliance will only point to these sects causing trouble and chaos.
After a while, all matters were discussed.
"What should Su Anran do?"
"The Yaochi Banquet should be about to begin."
"yes."
"It seemed that Wanjian Tower was planning to send Su Anran to the Sword Washing Pool of Hidden Sword Pavilion?"
"yes."
"Ha." Jin Di suddenly laughed, "Then let's help Wan Jianlou and send Su Anran there...if he is really a natural disaster."
