On the main peak of the Fairy Mountain, which was constantly being bombarded and shaking, the mountain-protecting formation was causing ripples in circles under the attack of various black energy explosions.
Obviously, this place has been directly attacked by the enemy. The originally sacred mountains have long lost their former solemnity and majesty due to the constant explosions.
Next to the huge Taoist bell stood an absent-minded Taoist boy, and some female monks dressed in white and snowy clothes, holding various precious utensils in their hands, hurriedly passed by the sentry guards who were already frightened.
Those who can be left here to look after the family and the hospital are naturally some core disciples. Most of these people are the confidants of the Shenzong leader, so there is no need to rush to the front line to die.
At the end of the still exquisite corridor, behind a screen carved with the pattern of two peach trees, is a room with bright and clean windows.
In the room, the leader of Shenzong, who had lost some of his manners, frowned and begged the old man in front of him: "Supreme Elder! In this case, you can only take action!"
The old man sat at the round table, reached for the tea bowl on the table, took a sip of tea, and asked absently: "What can I do if I take action? You can't feel it, what I saw is a
Circle of darkness, utter darkness! No one will be spared, our end is coming."
His words made the leader of Shenzong look even more ugly, because he felt that the master in front of him was simply a bastard.
In the past, in order to protect such an ancestor, Shenzong used magic to preserve his longevity. This stay lasted for so many years.
During such a long period of time, Shenzong sacrificed many talented young people in order to support this powerful man? How many evil things did Shenzong do that was outraged by both humans and gods?
In the end, aren't these efforts and these unscrupulous methods all aimed at retaining a strong deterrent force for Shenzong, so that Shenzong can have a trump card when facing powerful enemies?
What's the result? So far, you have enjoyed a long life and countless preferential treatment, but in the end you are not willing to fight for Shenzong?
If I had known this, those young and talented swordsmen left behind would not have been able to produce several elder-level powerful warriors after practicing to this day.
"Then, we can't just give up on the sect, right?" Although he was already gnashing his teeth with hatred in his heart when facing his master, the leader of the Shen Sect still didn't have the capital to fall out.
He still has someone to ask for. Even at the last moment, the old man in front of him is not a powerful being that he can offend.
Although the old man did not want to go against a powerful enemy, his cultivation had reached the realm of enlightenment, and it would not be difficult to deal with a leader of the Shen Sect like him.
The only solution now is to persuade him honestly and try to get this old immortal to voluntarily contribute some strength to Shenzong.
"What can we do if we don't retreat? In the current situation, we can't defeat these terrible enemies. What we can do is to retain the last ray of incense of Shenzong." The elder Taishang continued to speak shamelessly and gave
Give yourself a high-sounding reason.
The fact that Elder Tiantian can say this is naturally related to his character. He has always been the last ray of incense retained by the Shenzong, the last glimmer of hope that was desperately protected!
Except for himself, for the Supreme Elder, everyone else in Shenzong is expendable and can be given up.
And in his heart, as long as he is safe and sound, reviving the Shenzong is just a piece of cake.
Therefore, the current Supreme Elder is no longer thinking about how to defeat the powerful enemy in front of him, but is planning how to survive with his arms broken and take away everything he can.
"Supreme Elder! Can't you take action and fight for Shenzong with all your strength? If you take action, the enemy may not be able to get an advantage!" the leader of Shenzong begged bitterly.
In his opinion, even if this heavenly elder cannot completely eliminate the enemy, he can still buy a lot of time for Shenzong like other elders.
As long as he is willing to take action and the two of them join forces to counterattack, they can definitely repel the enemy troops attacking the mountain gate. At that time, after regaining some lost ground, the defense can be reorganized.
Even if they had to retreat and abandon the sect later, they had bought enough time and space for subsequent retreats, which could at least take away the terror accumulated by the sect over the years.
There are as many spiritual stones as there are mountains, various precious magical weapons, countless powerful techniques and the experience of previous generations...
In short, there are too many precious things, and it is worth the risk of the Supreme Elder and him to join the battle to buy some time.
It's a pity that the Supreme Elder didn't take it seriously. He ignored the anxious juniors, glanced at the sect master, and asked leisurely: "Then what? I am the sect's last hope and the sect's last support! What if I
If we fight with all our strength, what else can the Shenzong sect do to frighten everyone in the future?"
As a strong man, he knows the importance of strength all too well. If it weren't for his strength that stood out among his peers, the person sitting here now would not be him but another old man.
If he loses his power, he will no longer have any value or significance to Shenzong. At that time, his life and death will no longer be his own decision.
Having lived for so long and survived a long time, he is more concerned about how he can continue to live at this moment.
The seniors of Shenzong imagined that the evil method could continue to create a peerless strong man for the sect, but they seemed to have forgotten a rule, the older they get, the less courageous they become!
This supreme elder has lived for a long time, but as long as he has lived, he is so afraid of death. He no longer cares about the continuation of the sect, but more about his own life and death.
And who can say clearly whether the existence of such an old monster who has forgotten his original intention and only wants to save his own life is a good thing or a bad thing for the sect?
Anyway, now that the enemy is facing the enemy, the leader of the Shenzong feels more and more that the Shenzong's biggest supporter in front of him makes him feel more and more dangerous.
"But Elder Taishang! If you don't take action now, whether Shenzong will still exist in the future will already be a question." Therefore, the leader of Shenzong decided to remind the old man in front of him, reminding him of the reason and value of his existence.
But this kind of reminder seems a little feeble in front of an old monster who has lived for countless years.
I only heard the Supreme Elder smile sinisterly: "How could it not exist? I will take you and the Cambridge to other caves and paradises. When you get there, close the Cambridge and block the enemy's attack, right?"
"When the time comes to recuperate and accumulate strength, won't we still be able to continue to glorify the Shen Sect and continue the Shen Sect for eternity?" The more he spoke, the more he felt justified, and it seemed that he was moved.
In his opinion, a person like him who endures humiliation and is willing to preserve the last glimmer of hope for the sect's continuation is simply a role model for all generations and should be set up as a monument.
Before the leader of the Shen Sect could continue to beg, he said to himself: "Look at Jiuyou, look at Feng Xiaoqing's rebellious nature, they can endure the humiliation and persevere to this day, is it possible that our Heavenly Sword Shen Sect can't compare to Jiuyou?
Send those rebels?”
"But! This is our foundation, the sect we have been running for thousands of years! Just give up like this..." The leader of the Shenzong finally wanted to struggle and continued to remind.
As a result, the Supreme Elder replied proudly: "There is nothing worth missing. I have already ordered Qian Tong to take people to transport all the supplies to Cangyun Prefecture."
"What? Qian Tong? Without my order, how dare he..." After hearing this name, the head of Shenzong's face immediately turned pale.
He knew Qian Tong, and he also knew that Qian Tong relied on the trust and support of the fifth elder to reach the position of a substitute elder.
This person is a mother if she has breasts. She will take refuge in anyone who gives her some benefits. She is a typical wallflower and is not a suitable candidate for an elder.
However, Shenzong's talents were withering, and he suffered too many losses in one defeat. In the end, although he was not allowed to fill the position of elder, he was given a lot of real power.
Because he was not given the position of elder, Qian Tong seemed to be dissatisfied with the leader of the Shenzong. Also because of his style of doing things, he became a clown that no one paid much attention to.
In front of a strong person, this kind of villain is actually very easy to control. As long as he is given some benefits and comfort, he can be used casually.
Even if he was worried that such a person would do something bad, he could just kill him, and there was no need to worry too much about being vigilant - so the leader of the Shenzong did not always monitor such a person who could be killed at any time.
Who would have thought that this guy would actually collude with the Supreme Elder. Who would have thought that whether it was the fifth elder or the fourth elder, when almost all the elders were dead or injured, Qian Tong was still alive and well.
What makes people grit their teeth even more is that it seems that even if you want to kill such a small person, you can't do it easily.
If Chris and the senior officials of the Elanthir Empire could have imagined that such a chess piece they unintentionally left could be so disgusting, they would probably have a party to celebrate.
"It's the order I gave you..." Seeing the miraculously bad face of the Shenzong leader, the smile on the elder Taishang's face became more obvious. He said this with some pride, seeming to declare his respect for the whole thing.
The sect's control is average.
"Supreme Elder! This junior is still the leader of the Shen Sect! How can you go beyond me and give orders to the disciples of the sect?" The leader of the Shen Sect lowered his posture as much as possible, changed his tone of grievance, and spoke to defend his status.
We argued for a while.
"What a joke! When I give an order, do I still need to ask a junior like you for instructions?" The Supreme Elder snorted, showing no mercy when he got the upper hand.
"This... is junior Meng Lang." The leader of Shenzong felt that in this case, it was better not to anger the old monster in front of him. The situation is stronger than the person. It is not too late to settle the score when he has prepared everything and has the opportunity.
However, the Supreme Elder at the table seemed unwilling to leave such a trouble for himself anymore.
He stretched out his hand towards the leader of Shenzong and said in a commanding tone: "Since you have no objection to my decision, then hand over the Nine Heavens Star Map!"
This Nine Heavens Star Chart is the most important treasure of the Heavenly Sword Sect. It is also one of the few supreme treasures that can only be preserved by the leader of the Shen Sect. Although the Supreme Elder has a noble status, there is no way to come into contact with this treasure.
This treasure called the Nine Heavens Star Map is not actually an atlas. In fact, it is the Cambridge coordinates of the Cave Heaven Paradise opened by Shenzong. With this star map, Shenzong can find those scattered in unknown places at any time.
The paradise has been discovered!
In other words, after the fall of the sect, the Heavenly Elders who went to the so-called Cave Heaven Paradise in Cangyun Prefecture wanted to establish a new Cambridge in Cangyun Prefecture to communicate with other Cave Heaven Paradise. They needed the Nine Heavens Star Chart to provide the directions of the lost Cave Heaven Paradise.
of.
Without the Nine Heavens Star Map, even if we send people to stay in these worlds now, it would still take several years to activate the new coordinates. It would be too painful to waste this time.
"Tai Shang Elder... you are a bit overstepping your bounds, aren't you?" Hearing the other party asking for the star map, the Shenzong leader's tone also turned cold.
This was almost the same as forcing the emperor to concubine. It was an important act for the King of Chu to aspire to the throne, and the leader of the Shenzong could not help but shrink back.
He stared at the Supreme Elder sitting there, his face gloomy, and his aura had surged: "Do you still want the Nine Heavens Divine Sword?"
"I am cultivating the Immortal Blood Sword and have no interest in the Nine Heavens Divine Sword." The elder Tianshang laughed loudly: "I asked you for the Nine Heavens Star Chart because I just want to save some energy."
"So, you have also sent people to guard the remaining cave heaven paradises?" As the leader of Shenzong spoke, nine flying swords actually floated behind him and spread out like a peacock spreading its tail.
These nine flying swords are the treasures that only the master of the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect can use, an artifact called the Nine Heavens Divine Sword! Usually a swordsman can only use one flying sword in his life, but the Nine Heavens Divine Sword is born with nine flying swords, and its power is natural
Extremely tyrannical.
"That's natural, but there are many die-hard loyalists to you in these Cave Heaven Paradises. In order to avoid any complications, Star Map is safer! When I personally commit suicide and get rid of those people who are in the way, Shenzong can naturally rise again!
"Behind the Supreme Elder, blood mist began to spread everywhere.
"Okay! Very good! The Shenzong has raised you for endless years, but in the end you don't dare to fight against a strong enemy, but you want to rebel against the sect and kill the sect leader..." The leader of the Shenzong didn't know whether it was because of anger or because of the pressure of the Supreme Elder.
As he struggled to hold on, his face turned pale and twisted.
The Supreme Elder sitting there still looked calm, put the teacup in his hand back to its original position, stood up slowly and said: "As long as I kill you and get rid of those guys who know the inside story, who knows these things?
Secrets, secrets...just let these things remain shrouded in mist forever!"
