Wei An thought about it a lot, but he didn't think of it, so after hearing this, he subconsciously asked: "If you want to participate in the competition, just sign up by yourself, why do you need to use the banner of my northern faction?"

"Hey, it's a long story, and I also have a last resort, and if it weren't for the last resort, we wouldn't have gone out of the mountain gate. But I don't want others to know that I've come out of the sect, so in desperation, I want to ask you to help me with this. ”

"I'm very curious, it's just an ordinary competition between stone carving masters, how can it be possible to lead all of you hidden sects out? But I want to know, what is the ultimate purpose of why you are here to participate in this competition?"

"This time, there are tens of thousands of people who participated in the stone carving competition. There are dozens or even hundreds of well-known and surnamed sects in the hidden world, and there are even more than some small sects. Although I can also learn the truth about this matter from other people's mouths, since I met you today, I still have to trouble you to answer my questions. Wei An stared at the man in front of him tightly, and after seeing that the man's eyes drifted for a while, he told such a sensational legend.

Legend has it that there are three major sects in this world, which have always guarded the peace of the world. They are: the demons of Shushan Town, Kunlun guarding the homeland, and Xuanyuan conquering the world. However, in addition to these three major sects in the world, there is also the king of the array, the Heavenly Array Pavilion, and one Dan and one Fu go all over the world. Danfu Gate is the Pangu Inheritance Temple, the Confucianism of Literature, the Taoist Sect that pursues the way of immortality, the Beast Driving Hall that shook the world by resisting all beasts, and the Holy Maiden Pavilion inherited from the Nine Heavens Xuannu.

Legend has it that these sects have always stood at the top of this world, becoming the top ten sects that no force in the world dares to underestimate. However, with the passage of time, some sects have dissipated in the smoke and rain. However, there are also some sects that have been fortunate enough to continue to the present, just like the Kunlun in the past, which is now the Kunlun Holy Pool, is still the guardian of the world.

Among these ten major sects, after a period of splitting, the Beast Exorcism Hall formed two sects, one is the Beast King Sect, and the other is the Puppet Sect. The Beast King Sect continued the ability of the Beast Exorcism Hall to continuously control the beasts, but the puppet gate opened up a new path. He even began to envoy all kinds of puppets, and he became famous all over the world.

In fact, as early as thousands of years, this puppet sect was the demon in the hearts of many sects. This sect belongs to a neutral sect, and when it walks outside, it is all based on its own heart. Some people say that they are cruel and murderous, because they can actually refine the living into puppets. However, some people say that they are living bodhisattvas in the world, and they will spend a lot of money when they encounter poor people.

For thousands of years, the puppet gate has earned endless wealth outside. It is said that even those miscellaneous disciples in the sect are very rich. However, just when this sect was in full swing, suddenly one day, it unexpectedly faded out of everyone's field of vision, and disappeared without a trace from then on. Even at that time, many sects were looking around, but there was no trace of them.

Until half a month ago, someone got a mutilated treasure map at the antique market. But this drawing is only about one-eighth of the whole drawing, even so, after this person got the drawing, he still conducted a treasure appreciation meeting, and at the treasure appreciation conference, he directly declared that he owned this drawing, if others also have it, they can appreciate the real whole picture of this drawing together.

I didn't expect someone to come for this matter, just five days ago, seven other people also appeared here, and eight people turned the whole drawing into one completely unexpectedly bubbling. As a result, a brand new map was unfolded. The most incredible thing for them is that this is actually the location of the puppet gate mountain gate. You have to know which sect gets the ruins of the puppets, and it will become the richest sect in the entire Jianghu martial arts overnight.

It can be imagined how much this treasure map is so tempting, and after these eight people saw this situation, they couldn't calm down, and they all wanted to keep it for themselves. Because they are all martial arts people, they naturally fought after some unsuccessful negotiations. It is said that the weakest of the eight people was finally beaten and vomited blood, knowing that his survival was hopeless, he directly took out his mobile phone to take a complete picture of this drawing, and posted it directly on his own Weibo.

As a result, many people from the Hidden World Sect who paid attention to his Weibo hurriedly downloaded this drawing. After that, in less than half a day, the number of downloads of this drawing has reached tens of thousands. And the eight people who originally got the drawings, except for the person who passed the drawings were directly killed, the other seven people were also seriously injured.

However, when the last person competed for the blueprints, he thought he could take the treasure to himself. But he never thought that the drawing in his hand was no longer unique. Because the above information has already been leaked out, according to some people, after the person knew the news at that time, a mouthful of old blood spurted out of his mouth, and the whole person was suddenly unconscious.

When he woke up again, he found that the drawings in his hand had long been gone, and he naturally didn't know who had obtained them. But there is one thing that feels true, and that is that the puppet gate has reappeared.

Just when the various sects were happy and ready to explore the ruins, they didn't expect another accident suddenly. It turns out that the point of origin drawn in this drawing is not elsewhere, but the farewell pavilion fifty miles away from the ancient stone gate. In other words, if you want to find this sect, then you must first find the location of the farewell kiosk.

After so many years, if it were to be changed to another sect, I am afraid that that small pavilion would have disappeared long ago. However, the larger hermit sect knows that this so-called stone gate is the predecessor of the current northern and southern sects. Shimen has always been a secret of the northern and southern factions, and outsiders don't know it, and they don't know where it is.

If the many sects of Jianghu martial arts join forces and want to ask the people of the northern and southern factions, it is not impossible to find out where the farewell pavilion is. But all the sects know that these two factions are very deeply hidden. If they don't have to, they definitely don't want to provoke.

Don't think that this is just an ordinary stone carving sect, you know, a sect that can be passed down for thousands of years, how can there be no hermit masters in it, just like the southern faction, almost all the people in it are the same as Yun Buregret, they all have some cultivation, and there are even people who are higher than Yun Buregret, it is conceivable that there must be many masters in the sect.

Although the northern faction has always given people an extremely peaceful feeling, it looks relatively weak on the surface. But which sect does not dare to underestimate the northern faction, the northern faction can be inherited to this day, and the southern faction has always been competing with each other, which can be imagined, the northern faction is mysterious, powerful, and must hide its own reason for existence to this day.

Now, the stone carving competition that Jinling is about to hold is actually a friendly match between the north and the south. It is said that the top 10 who win in the end will be sent to the Shimen headquarters by people from the north and south to further their studies. As for whether there is anyone in the Shimen headquarters now, outsiders don't know. In fact, even the people of the North and the South are unknown.

After all, people who come out of it choose not to talk about what happens inside, so after coming and going, it has become an extremely mysterious place. After the various sects learned of this, they all looked for masters from their own sects who could reach a certain level in stone carving, so that they could come and participate in the stone carving competition.

As for whether they can win the championship in the end, they don't care. But what they care about is whether the players they send can make it to the final top 10. Because as long as they can enter the top ten, they can follow the people of the northern and southern factions to feel the scenery of Shimen. Even if they are not disciples of the North and South factions and cannot enter the real stone gate, they will at least stand here at the farewell pavilion and silently look from afar to feel the mystery and vastness of the stone gate.

In short, the ultimate goal of each major sect is the farewell pavilion, they will not provoke the behemoth of Shimen for no reason, but as long as they arrive at the farewell pavilion, they will use the farewell pavilion as the foundation, and then they can quickly find the teleportation array that leads to the puppet gate. This is the ultimate method used by the various sects.

You must know that in the entire eastern rivers and lakes martial arts, there are countless sects of all sizes, and if those hidden families are also included, it is simply a terrifying number. It is precisely because of this that many sects and families have a long-standing enmity with each other.

Now, if they venture out of their own mountain gates, what awaits them may be a fatal blow. The strong are fearless, and the weak have to find another way. And at this time, the person who tied Wei An here. He just has a lot of enemies outside, and this person doesn't want others to know that his sect has gone out of the mountain. But in the face of that huge temptation, he had to join in again, so in desperation, he thought of such an idea, he thought, if he could skillfully let his disciples compete in the name of the Northern Sect, then all the problems would no longer be a problem.

After listening to the whole story, Wei An finally understood why the number of people who signed up for the stone carving competition was so large in the recent period. But Wei Anzhong also understands that don't look at the number of people who sign up for the competition, but there will be many people who will be really eliminated at that time. But now that he knows the truth of the whole thing, he doesn't dare to slack off, and he is ready to hold another meeting to study and discuss this matter, since there are so many hidden sects and hidden families to participate, then the rules of the competition will also make some necessary adjustments.

And since these people did not cause disadvantages to the northern and southern factions, they could naturally send more places, after all, they just wanted to go to the farewell pavilion. In fact, it is impossible to come to the farewell pavilion and find the real stone gate. Don't look at the legend, the distance between them is only fifty miles, but Wei Anzhong understands that even so, but without the guidance of their internal people, no one can figure out the fifty miles. Because that's a moat!
