The Qing sect in Shushan called the group's annual winter expedition to Shiwanda Mountain the "Southern Expedition."
It was not a raid on grassland, but a southern expedition - the difference lies in the justice, that is, the Qing sect in Shushan believed that Shiwandashan was their own territory "since ancient times".
The Hundred Thousand Mountains in southern Xinjiang were the ancient battlefields where humans and monsters fought in ancient times. A large number of sword cultivators were stationed around Shu Mountain, responsible for resisting the monsters trying to go north to Sichuan.
In ancient times, with the overall rise of the human race in China, the number of monks also began to increase dramatically.
Through recruiting disciples and making friends, several immortal masters began to integrate the forces of the entire world of cultivation, and gradually formed two behemoths, Chanjiao and Jiejiao.
At that time, Chanjiao was in the west and Jiejiao was in the east, with the middle section of the ancient Xiaohan Road as the boundary of influence. Sichuan and Shu had always been the private territory of the Chanjiao sword cultivators - and the claim to Shiwandashan began from this time.
As for the later explanation of how the power distribution of the two sects became so intertwined and dotted, and how Shiwanda Mountain was "smuggled and occupied" by the Jie sect monks, it is another long story.
Among the 100,000 mountains, the temperature is basically constant throughout the year, which makes the miasma that is extremely sensitive to temperature continue to exist stably, and only briefly retreats between the major and minor colds every winter.
At this time, the Qing sect in Shu Mountain will send a large number of sword immortals to march south to "harvest" the resources of one hundred thousand mountains.
Although the Donghuang Dao monks can usually pass through the miasma, they cannot completely ignore the miasma. They also need to take advantage of this period to harvest resources.
In addition, they have to face the competition and threats from the Shushan Sword Immortals, so they often choose to invite other demonic monks to help, turning the entire Shiwan Mountain into a cruel battlefield of life and death. The level of danger is by no means a secret trial.
Refining can be compared.
For this reason, the Shushan Qing Sect selects the Southern Expedition Sword Immortals every year, instead of giving each disciple a fair chance to compete like in the Demon Locking Tower trial.
Strong combat effectiveness is a necessary basic condition, and implicit political status is naturally also taken into consideration. After all, in addition to enemies in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, there are also all kinds of rare adventures and gains...
Therefore, Qingluo Peak misses the Southern Expedition almost every year. This time, thanks to the relationship between the ancestors of the Guan family, Ling Yunpo was able to get such a precious opportunity, which really gave Ling Yunpo a sense of surprise.
Okay! If there are any ruins in Shiwanda Mountain that can accelerate the transformation of the Mansion, you can investigate them in advance now!
"Where's Senior Sister An?" Lin Duanshan asked.
Ling Yunpo immediately became alert:
"What are you looking for, senior sister? She is practicing swordplay at this time. It's the same thing if she talks to me about anything."
Lin Duanshan frowned slightly, but Guan Shanyue immediately saw the clues and said teasingly:
"Don't worry, it's not a private matter for us to look for her, it's a business matter. It is said that this time the Donghuang Dao is unprecedented. It has summoned the Shura Dao, the Heavenly Demon Dao, the Yingui Dao and the Mortal Dao in an attempt to kill our Shushan Sword Immortal in the Hundred Thousand Mountains."
"The five paths gathered together?" Ling Yunpo asked in surprise, "In the past, wasn't it only the Shura path that participated?"
"They have already planned it." Lin Duanshan said seriously, "First, we will weaken our Shushan's strength through the dragon riot incident in the Demon Locking Tower..."
"It's not weakened much," Ling Yunpo reminded.
"Well, although it hasn't been weakened much, our Sword Immortal's desire for revenge has been aroused." Lin Duanshan added, "When the five paths gather together, we in Shushan will be at a disadvantage. But if we can't avoid the battle, or we can attack Tai
Qingzong and Yuqingguan asked for help, but they were worried about damaging their morale."
So can you stop being so obsessed with saving face? Ling Yunpo cursed in his heart, but said:
"That's right! If Donghuang Dao thinks they can succeed this way, we can't let them succeed! We Shushan Sword Immortals are never afraid of strong enemies, we only worry that the enemies are not strong enough!"
[Unyielding character, synchronization value +1.]
"Junior brother Ling said it well!" Lin Duanshan praised his statement very much, "With the five demon sects gathered together, what should we, the sword immortals, fear? Even if there are all kinds of gods and ghosts in the way, I will kill them with one sword.
Of!"
Guan Shanyue did not respond, but just stared at Ling Yunpo suspiciously, thinking how could this guy have a reckless side?
I thought he had a deep mind... It seems that he was just brought out by An Zhisu. After all, the grass-cutting swordsman is simply the most reckless man among reckless men.
"It's just that if you want to deal with it, in addition to having fearless courage, you also need to do your intelligence homework in advance." Lin Duanshan added, "So we plan to come to you and Senior Sister An to discuss and prepare in advance."
"I understand." Ling Yunpo nodded, thinking that it would be okay.
After all, Senior Brother Lin Duanshan is a cautious senior brother who likes to conduct intelligence investigations in advance.
Before the competition between our fellow sects in Shushan, he actually asked me to memorize all the battle information of the first fifty Sword Immortals.
When the three of them arrived at the backyard of the Taoist temple, they saw An Zhisu, who was blushing and slightly tipsy, sleeping soundly on the stone table in the center of the pavilion. There were several thin-mouthed jade porcelain wine bottles rolling down beside him.
Everyone:………………
Lin Duanshan looked at Ling Yunpo in shock, what he meant was, "Is this what you call practicing swordsmanship?"
Ling Yunpo quickly took three steps at a time and rushed into the pavilion. He grabbed An Zhisu's shoulders and shook him violently:
"Sister! Wake up!"
An Zhisu refused to wake up, and even burped with his eyes closed, the strong smell of alcohol hitting his face.
Ling Yun had no choice but to quietly whisper next to his senior sister:
"Master is out of seclusion!"
An Zhisu stood up almost instinctively, and it took him a while to wake up. He knew that he had been deceived by his junior brother, so he could only silently use his true energy to refine all the alcohol, and then, as if nothing happened, he met the stunned Guan Shanyue and Lin in front of him.
Duanshan and the two said:
"What's wrong? What's the matter?"
Lin Duanshan was still stunned, but Guan Shanyue quickly calmed down and said with a smile:
"The miasma in Shiwandashan is about to dissipate, and the faction has begun preparations for the southern expedition."
"Oh." An Zhisu's response was exactly the same as Ling Yunpo's, which was "None of my business."
"As a reward for the last sword-hunting operation, the ancestor asked for two places for the two of you." Guan Shanyue continued.
"Really?" An Zhisu was overjoyed and turned to Ling Yunpo and said, "That's great, junior brother! There is a ruins in Shiwanda Mountain that should be able to speed up the transformation of the mansion. We must go there this time!"
"I was about to tell Senior Sister An another bad news." Lin Duanshan said, "This time, Donghuang Dao has almost summoned the entire Demon Dao to come to Shiwan Mountain to fight against our Shu Mountain, so the danger is probably far greater.
In the past..."
"That's even better." An Zhisu smiled broadly and turned to Ling Yunpo and said, "Junior brother, this is a rare opportunity. We can fight the Demon Cult with all our strength without holding back."
Lin Duanshan:…………
Guan Shanyue:………………
Ling Yunpo:………………
Staying in Shushan as usual, no one is worthy of your full strength, right?
