Su Anran didn't know many people in the mysterious world, but there were quite a few.
I have friends who are quite consistent with my status.
Such as the young monk Miao Yan from the Great Sun Tathagata Sect, Ye Yunchi from Wanjian Tower, Nai Yue, etc.
There are also those whose status and status are slightly inconsistent.
Such as Jiang Xiaobai from the Yunjiang Gang, etc.
But Su Anran never cared about these details.
When he makes friends, he never looks at the identity and background of the other person. After all, no matter what the identity or background is, no one has the word "Tai Yi Gu" to work with.
The most obvious characteristic of being able to be friends with Su Anran is that he is particularly good at fighting - the little monk Miaoyan was slightly lacking in fighting ability at first, but after all, the skills he practiced were quite special, so he was very reckless; as for Jiang Xiaobai , his own abilities are not weak, he is just a little timid.
So when Su Anran received a letter asking for help from a friend, he was still confused for a while.
"Su Anran, I need your help."
This transmission talisman was given by Song Jue when Su Anran joined forces with Song Jue in order to join the Jingshi Hall.
Yes, the person who sent the distress message was Song Jue, a disciple of the Zhenyuan Sect.
"Where are you?"
Su Anran instilled Qi, activated the transmission talismans, and hurriedly replied.
"I'm in Dongzhou."
Almost as soon as Su Anran's voice was passed on, the other party responded instantly.
Obviously, Song Jue is probably in quite a lot of trouble, otherwise Song Jue would not contact Su Anran.
After solving the problem of the demon world, Su Anran returned and left first, while Song Jue continued to stay in the demon world to practice. Later, when Song Jue left the demon world, Su Anran had already gone to Wanjian Tower to participate After passing the test of the Sword Trial Tower, he was involved in the Nanzhou Rebellion and showed himself as a saint in front of the people in the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield. It can be said that his timeline is perfectly staggered with Song Jue's, so the two of them also have a long relationship. There is no connection with time.
This is why Su Anran was so shocked when she suddenly received a message from Song Jue asking for help.
Of course, what is even more shocking is that Song Jue is actually in Dongzhou at this time.
You must know that the nineteen sects in Xuanjie all have their own territory, so the disciples usually only move within their own sect's territory. Even if they go down the mountain to practice, they rarely leave the sect. The sanctuary circle can only enter Zhongzhou at most - for the other nineteen sects that do not take root in Zhongzhou, the special status of Zhongzhou is like the high seas. Most of the sects' geniuses will choose to go to Zhongzhou for training. This is why Zhongzhou is The center of the five states of Xuanjie.
As for the Zhenyuan Sect, the sect is based in Xizhou.
Song Jue is not a truly famous genius of the Zhenyuan Sect—she is not even among the top 30 in the Heavenly Ranking—of course, Song Jue’s own combat prowess is quite impressive, so she is confident that she can thrive in Zhongzhou. It's a very reasonable thing, but if she dares to come to Dongzhou to make a living, it's highly questionable.
After all, the Nineteen Sects are not monolithic. As long as they are not discovered and exposed, they can do a lot of dirty tricks to each other.
The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism has existed since ancient times, so Taoist disciples rarely go to Buddhist territory, and vice versa.
"I know you are in Dongzhou, that's why I'm looking for you."
Probably because Su Anran didn't reply for a long time, Song Jue's transmission talisman came on again.
It's no secret that Su Anran is in Dongzhou.
It is no secret in Dongzhou that Fang Qianwen and Su Anran came to treat the seven heroes of the younger generation of the Dongfang family. Especially after the arrival of Chen Wuen, the master of Yaowang Valley, it became a sensation throughout the whole country.
A grand event in Dongzhou.
Basically, anyone in Dongzhou will know that Fang Qianwen and Su Anran are visiting the Dongfang Family.
And it won't take long, I'm afraid the entire Xuanjie will know about it.
This is like, after the secret realm of Sword Sect was opened, within ten days or so, the entire Xuanjie already knew the talented sword cultivators who entered the secret realm of Sword Sect - in the Xuanjie, as long as it falls into the category of "big events", almost all
There is no secret at all. Even if you don't know the specific situation, as long as you are willing to spend a fee, you can naturally obtain more and more detailed information from Wanshilou.
Especially after the "Online Forum" was opened in Wanshilou, it didn't even take ten days for many messages to be transmitted. It almost happened in the morning and could spread throughout the Mysterious World that night.
For example, at this time, news about the Nine-Tailed Great Sage Qingjue causing trouble in the Eastern Family has begun to spread.
"What are you doing in Dongzhou?" Su Anran asked via message.
"Jingshitang's mission."
"Jingshi Hall?" Su Anran suddenly woke up.
Previously, he helped Jingshitang go to Broken Jade Little World to save people. Afterwards, Jingshitang agreed to let him join, and his recommender at that time was Song Jue.
But it turned out that several years had passed since he rescued the man, and Jingshitang didn't send anyone to look for him.
This made Su Anran feel angry that she had been prostituted for nothing.
"Where are you now?... I mean, the specific location."
Although Su Anran is quite dissatisfied with Jingshitang, he still has a good impression of Song Jue and admits that he is his friend - Su Anran firmly refuses to admit that he deceived Song Jue of his life span for decades, so he feels guilty -
—At this time, when I heard that Song Jue was in danger, the first thought in my heart was naturally to help.
"Burial Sky Pavilion."
…
"Burial Sky Pavilion?" Dongfang Yu frowned slightly, "Why are you asking about this place?"
"Do you think this place is very bad?"
"It's more than bad." Dongfang Yu sneered, "This place is simply filled with evil spirits... What do you think the word 'Zangtian' in Zangtian Pavilion means?"
"What's the meaning?"
Su Anran asked without knowing it, and she didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Although he has been in this world for ten years and has gained a lot of knowledge, there is countless strange knowledge in the mysterious world. How can it be possible for Su Anran to become a knowledgeable person in a "short time"?
People? Especially when it comes to all kinds of knowledge related to secret realms, special areas, etc., Su Anran has ten apertures and nine apertures.
Dongfang Yu didn't know that Su Anran was a person who didn't understand anything. He just thought that Su Anran was pretending to be stupid, so he couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Burial Sky, the place where Heaven is buried." Dongfang Yu sighed, "One of the dangerous places in Dongzhou."
Su Anran was surprised.
Ever since the Ancient Battlefield of Netherworld, Su Anran has made a strong point about the concept of "Five Absolutes and Ten Evils".
I know that there are a total of fifteen forbidden areas in the Xuan Realm.
Five of them are places that can be said to be the ultimate destination of death and no life, so they are called the five most dangerous places. There are also ten most dangerous places, but because compared to the ten most dangerous places with no life or death, the ten most dangerous places at least still have some
There is a glimmer of hope.
For example, the Whistling Mountains in Nanzhou were listed as one of the ten most dangerous places because they were involved in the ancient battlefield of the underworld.
The glimmer of hope here is that when crossing the Whistling Mountains, you may not necessarily be sucked into the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield, and even if you accidentally enter the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield, as long as you can hide in the Netherworld Forest, you can still survive and won't suffer from it.
The divine sea was corrupted by pollution and turned into a monster.
But now, the Whistling Mountains can no longer be regarded as one of the ten most dangerous places, because the ancient Netherworld battlefield has been demolished by Su Anran.
The result is naturally to increase Su Anran's reputation as a "natural disaster".
And under the "Five Absolutes and Ten Evils", it is a dangerous place.
Dangerous area means "dangerous area", including but not limited to desperate places and dangerous places.
For example, the three dangerous places in Nanzhou refer to the Whistling Mountains, No Return Forest, and Wanchong Lake.
"Burning Heaven Pavilion was originally the residence of Tiandao Sect." Dongfang Yu said slowly, "I don't know the specific history. Our Dongfang Family's classics only record that this sect was first born three thousand years ago.
In the more than two thousand years of history from the birth of Tiandao Sect to its subsequent destruction, the sect changed its name three times due to the personal actions of taking over as head."
"Convert?"
Dongfang Yu's face showed a rare look of hesitation: "I'm not sure whether it counts as a religious change."
In the Xuan Realm, the development of a sect cannot always go smoothly, even for the 19th sect, let alone the 36th sect and the 72nd sect.
Therefore, sometimes, once a sect encounters some major crisis that cannot be overcome, there may be special circumstances in which the sect splits, or the sect moves, or the sect merges with other sects.
For example, the Xingyun Sect, which separated from the Xingtian Sect, was a very typical act of conversion.
However, except for the practice of "merger", conversion rarely yields any effective benefits.
Such as Zhenyuan Sect.
As a sect of the Dao Sect, it is based on the Five Elements Techniques and Yin and Yang Techniques. As for Zhenyuan Sect, it is now quite good at martial arts methods. This is because Zhenyuan Sect has annexed a man who once ranked among the top three.
The martial arts sect, one of the sixteen superior sects, has absorbed all its martial arts techniques to enrich the foundation of its own sect, so now Zhenyuan Sect can be regarded as having a martial arts training method.
However, the foundation of the Zhenyuan Sect has always been the formal orthodoxy of the art stream, and it does not attach much importance to the study of martial arts.
Therefore, Zhenyuan Sect cannot be regarded as a true conversion.
Rather, it can be said that the annexed martial arts sect that left its inheritance in another way can be said to have changed its sect.
"The philosophy of Tiandao Sect follows the practice route of 'Heaven's Ruthless Way', so the cultivation method is the ruthless way. The more advanced the disciples of Tiandao Sect are, the more indifferent their temperaments will be." Dongfang Yu said, "But
This kind of cultivation method that does not recognize relatives naturally has many disadvantages... You know, once you have the slightest emotional thought, it will lead to all your previous efforts being wasted. Later, a leader of the Tiandao Sect conducted a new study on this technique.
Change."
"That is to say, after that time, the Tiandao Sect was divided into the Sentimental Sect and the Ruthless Sect, and the sect was renamed the Tianqing Sect."
"After that, the sentient sect gradually gained the upper hand, and basically no one continued to practice the ruthless technique that was indifferent to temperament... But this part is a statement deduced by the elders of our Eastern family. The specific details are not recorded in the classics.
our foundation
According to records in the classics, we only know that three hundred years after Tiandao Sect was renamed Tianqing Sect, the Ruthless Sect disappeared. After that, the Sentimental Sect also developed a method of human experience, which pushed the foundation of the technique to a new level.
Later, the sect was renamed Hongchen Sect."
"Whether it is the Tianqing Sect, which is divided into the sentient sect or the ruthless sect, or the later Hongchen Sect, the core inherited skills of the sect have never changed. What has changed is only the difference in cultivation methods... So in fact
, rather than saying that the Ruthless Sect has disappeared, it is better to say that the Ruthless Sect has never disappeared, but has just been hidden, which also involved the third sect name change later."
Su Anran listened quietly and did not interrupt.
The history of the Mysterious World has always been his weakest point, so Su Anran will naturally not miss such a thing that can help him understand the history of the Mysterious World.
"Tiandao Sect takes 'merciless' as its cultivation concept. Whether it is Tianqing Sect or Hongchen Sect, they have never bypassed this concept. Therefore, the cultivation of the disciples of the sect is always in a bottleneck state, and their cultivation realm cannot break through the shackles.
Restrictions, which led to the gradual decline of this sect." Dongfang Yu paused for a moment, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then continued, "At this stage, a man from the former Tiandao Sect came out.
…”
"genius?"
"No." Dongfang Yu shook his head, "I should say... he's a pretty miserable person."
"What's going on?" Su Anran suddenly became very energetic.
Because he smelled gossip.
"This disciple of the Hongchen Sect has mediocre qualifications, but he fell in love with a female cultivator. Even if the female cultivator didn't like him, he still loved the female cultivator deeply and was willing to go through fire and water for her, even to win that
The famous female cultivator smiled and risked her life to enter a secret realm, and after surviving nine deaths, she picked a fruit that could improve her cultivation."
"Oh." Su Anran nodded clearly, "I'm always a licker."
Dongfang Yu blinked.
Although he didn't know what the word "dog licking" meant, he could still tell from Su Anran's disdainful and contemptuous expression that it was definitely not a good word.
"According to the records in the classics, the female cultivator was beautiful in appearance, but her qualifications were also average. However, after swallowing the mysterious fruit that the disciple of the Hongchen Sect brought for her, she finally changed her body, her cultivation improved rapidly, and she became the focus of her sect.
The object of cultivation." Dongfang Yu did not delve into the meaning of the word "dog licking" and continued, "After this incident, the female cultivator did not become attached to this Hongchen Sect disciple, but began to avoid him.
"
"The daily life of a licking dog and green tea." Su Anran nodded clearly, "Then this licking dog starts to work hard?"
"No, he met another female nun."
Su Anran was speechless: "What did he get deceived this time?"
Dongfang Yu looked surprised: "You really know!"
"You know what the heck." Su Anran pouted, "Liugou will definitely not be deceived just once... People like Liugou, what they are best at is deceiving themselves, as long as others treat them a little better, they will
I can open a dyeing room. I obviously have a mysterious fruit that can change my qualifications, but I didn’t take it myself. Haha... there are such naive people in the mysterious world."
Dongfang Yu was speechless for a moment.
He himself is a very typical person who puts interests first - to put it bluntly, he is egoistic, so he also cannot understand the behavior of the Hongchen Sect disciple. If he has mediocre qualifications and is lucky enough to obtain such a mysterious fruit that can change his qualifications, he
I must have eaten it immediately. After all, according to the normal logic of the mysterious world, as long as she is strong enough, what woman can't?
"The specific details of what he was deceived are not recorded in the classics, but he did suffer some losses anyway."
"After being cheated twice, it's time to learn to be smarter."
"No." Dongfang Yu shook his head, "He must have been discouraged for a long time. At least in the classics collected by our Dongfang family, there are almost a hundred years of historical blanks in the subsequent research and investigation.
But after that, he met a junior sister from the same sect."
"So, you were deceived for the third time?"
"Yes." Dongfang Yu nodded, "It is said that his junior sister saw him being foolishly fooled twice and felt that he was easy to fool, so she approached him and tried to squeeze something from him.
...But the Hongchen Sect has a rule for training in the world of mortals, which is what we often call worldly practice, and then this...licking the dog?...Anyway, this disciple of the Hongchen Sect broke into his little junior sister during an experience.
Intimate behavior with another sect’s genius.”
"Then the licking dog dies?"
"Not dead." Dongfang Yu shook his head, "But he is possessed."
Su Anran's pupils suddenly shrank.
Possessed.
This is no small matter in the mysterious world.
The latest demonic incident in Xuanjie is his fifth senior sister Wang Yuanji.
But that time, it was Huang Zi who personally suppressed him and then brought him to the Great Sun Tathagata Sect for demonic purification, so he, the fifth senior sister, was able to survive.
If a normal monk becomes possessed by a demon, he will become a big demon. The higher the cultivation level of a monk, the more terrifying the consequences will be if he becomes possessed by the devil.
"Fortunately, his cultivation is not very advanced."
Dongfang Yu glanced sideways at Su Anran and said lightly: "The reason why he became possessed by the devil was the death of his heart, which happened to be in line with the Tiandao Sect's theory of 'Tiandao is ruthless'. He was able to break through and killed his junior sister and the fellow sect member on the spot.
Tianjiao, then rebelled against the family... But at that time, no one knew that he was possessed by the devil. It was just because this disciple was dissatisfied with his junior sister's behavior of colluding with others, so he killed someone and rebelled against the family."
"This..." Su Anran was speechless for a while, "Will this person also kill the two green teas who deceived him before?"
Dongfang Yu nodded.
Su Anran was silent.
"By this time, the news that he had become a demon had completely spread, but because he fit in with the cultivation concept of the sect's inherited skills, his cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds. By the time the encirclement and suppression operation began, he was already the supreme master of the sea of suffering." Dongfang.
Yu sighed, "After that, he returned to the sect, slaughtered everyone in the sect, and renamed the sect 'Stealing Heaven Sect', which means stealing the way of heaven."
"And the final battle to encircle and suppress this demon took place at the sect's headquarters of Tiandao Sect, which is now the Burying Sky Pavilion."
"That battle could be said to have been fought to the death. The entire Tiandao Sect was completely razed to the ground. Only an attic survived. And when the big devil died, he actually chose to relax.
, completely spreading the demonic energy into the sect's formation, directly changing the trend of the mountains and rivers, so for the first time there was today's Burial Sky Pavilion."
"Fuck." Su Anran exclaimed, "There's something there."
"There is a demon general in Burial Sky Pavilion there." Dongfang Yu frowned, "So, why do you ask about this?"
The so-called devil refers to a person who has lost his mind after being corroded by various evil spirits and evil spirits.
The people here include but are not limited to monks.
Mortals without any cultivation are actually more likely to be corrupted by demonic energy and become demons.
Therefore, there are three, six or nine levels of demons.
Mortals who are corrupted by demonic energy are called demon puppets.
Only those monks and demons who have cultivated themselves are called demons.
But even if it is a demon puppet, its strength is equivalent to that of a monk in the Aperture Realm: strong strength, strong body, and strengthened internal organs, but it is unable to use the magic of spiritual consciousness. If it is a low-level monk with insufficient strength, or
If an inexperienced monk accidentally encounters a demon puppet, the outcome will not be much better.
As for the devil, it's different.
Although monks who have been eroded by demonic energy can be said to be "possessed", in fact they are lunatics with no sense at all. Because their souls have been crushed and their consciousness is completely confused, they naturally become only strong-willed.
Aggressive lunatics don't recognize people at all.
Therefore, the mysterious world's positioning of demons cannot be regarded as "the same kind".
But compared to demons at the level of demon puppets, monk demons have mastered various methods and skills "in life", and their difficulty is exponentially higher.
According to common sense in the mysterious world, it takes at least three monks with the same level of cultivation as the demon to be able to kill a demon.
Of course, geniuses who are powerful enough to fight across ranks are not included in this common sense.
And the one who is stronger than the devil is the devil general.
The strength of the Demon General is equivalent to that of the Soul Condensing Realm monks, but compared to the Demon General who has no sense and self-awareness, the Demon General has self-awareness. However, the Demon General is basically a lunatic, so even if he has self-awareness, he basically has no self-awareness.
There is the possibility of being able to communicate - their so-called self-awareness means knowing how to judge the pros and cons of a situation and choose whether to continue fighting to the death, make a strategic retreat, or launch a sneak attack, etc.
The danger of Burial Sky Pavilion has increased exponentially in Su Anran's heart.
If it weren't for these demon generals and the demons couldn't come out to cause trouble, Burial Sky Pavilion might not be a dangerous place, but a dangerous place, a desperate place.
"Since Burial Sky Pavilion is so dangerous, why not eradicate the evil spirit once and for all?" Su Anran was puzzled.
"Both the Huanxi Sect and the Great Sun Tathagata Sect have tried." Dongfang Yu shook his head, "After the demonic energy is completely purified and eradicated, it will resurrect in no more than ten years. No matter what means are used, it cannot be stopped. The palace of Wandao Palace
The Lord once came to observe, and He said that this land has been solidified by resentment and has become strange, so... it cannot be uprooted."
"Basically, as long as you don't run into the Burial Sky Pavilion to seek death, the harm is almost zero."
If you don’t run into the Burial Sky Pavilion by yourself...
Song Jue is not a fool. She knows very well the principle that "a gentleman should not stand behind a dangerous wall", so she will definitely not go to Burial Sky Pavilion by herself.
But if it’s a mission from Jingshitang...
Su Anran sighed: "I have a friend who is trapped in Zangtian Pavilion. I hope I can rescue him."
"I wish you good luck." Dongfang Yu stood up and patted Su Anran on the shoulder, then left without looking back.
