Ten thousand miles north of the mountain gate of Taishang Road, the mountains are stacked on top of each other, the weather is thousands, the ancient trees on it are towering to the sky, the strange stones are rising, majestic and magnificent.

Looking down from the sky, this thousand mountains and peaks are like a fairyland on earth, where many spirit beasts are breeding and breeding, and the pagoda palaces emit light and ripple aura.

However, if there is a formation master who overlooks here, he will find that the arrangement of this mountain peak and tower hall is like a large magic circle of exquisite and exquisite, blocked from the outside to the inside, so that no strong person or observing artifact can see the true face of the mountain.

At this time, in a large hall in the center of the mountains, seven Taoists wearing different colors of robes were full of bitterness.

"Taishang Dao dispatched the Mountain Protector Divine Beast, it seems that they don't want to be too forgetful this time......"

"Then it's our turn to make a decision. ”

Roar!!!

With a strange roar like a beast's roar, a terrifying wave swept in all directions, shaking the hall and staggering.

"Alas, Zhu Xian rioted again. ”

"Ever since the Sect Leader and the Peak Masters brought those Heavenly Demons into the Demon Suppression Tower, Zhu Xian has been restless. ”

After all, it is the treasure left by "their", and it is not surprising that I feel something. ”

The faces of the seven people changed immediately when they heard the roar, but they returned to normal in an instant, obviously used to it.

Half a year ago, some sects went to the Daomen to eliminate demons for the purpose of recruiting disciples; some sects went in response to the call of the Senate to expand the influence of the Daomen; and some sects went purely to disgust the Heng Dynasty, or planned to train their disciples and eliminate demons and defend the Dao. And for a sect like Emei, which has a deep relationship with the Heavenly Demons, the main purpose is a little intriguing.

As a giant at the top of the Daomen system, Emei does not need to be like the downstream sects, in order to show the position of parting ways, to make the extreme move of killing thousands of people in vain so that a single demon does not slip through the net. There is no need to put on a posture of being too forgetful like a first-class sect like Taishang Dao, and only sent a few small flying ships to deal with things.

They have fused with the Dao Sect in the past three thousand years, and they have long since transformed from the Sword of the Heavenly Demon Era to the most powerful thug group of the Dao Sect.

The sword is upright, unyielding like a sword, like a sharp sword, moving forward bravely, leaving no way out...... Daomen did not hesitate to praise all kinds of words, and the treatment given to the sword cultivator was several times stronger than that of other monks in Zhao'an, so Emei, which was transformed from Shushan, continued to grow, and Daomen quickly rose into a giant sect in a hundred years under the support of Daomen, and became the most powerful tool to resist the great unified dynasty of the hundred schools.

As one of the biggest beneficiaries of the entire Daomen system, when Emei proposed to capture the living Heavenly Demon to crack the inheritance of the year, the Senate, the institution representing the will of the Daomen, agreed to his request without hesitation, and Emei also reciprocated after catching the Heavenly Demon, inviting the masters of all factions to jointly refer to the secrets of the Heavenly Demon, trying to use the remaining Demon Suppression Tower of the Heavenly Demon Era to attack his own shield with his own spear.

"The real person in charge of the sect and the senior brothers are inseparable in the Demon Suppression Tower, and the affairs of the sect must be handled by us. The purple-clothed Daoist, who had the highest status and the oldest qualifications among the seven, spoke.

"This state of affairs...... The Senate preliminarily determined that it was the dragon vein that made the move, and in view of the fact that the dragon vein is a force majeure, the responsibility lies with the organization and management. ”

Stone City's actions involve many forces, and it can be said that the number one force in the entire Yunlu civilization is directly or indirectly involved.

With the destruction of the Stone City Massacre as the point of prying, the large exotic flying ship next to the Stone City was designated as the culprit, and the Heng Dynasty turned around as a behemoth, and launched a war against the magical civilization countries on the Western Apennine Peninsula in the name of revenge, so that the huge flying ship army of the Heng Dynasty and the monk spaceship could carry out an expedition together, which not only alleviated the increasingly fierce disputes within the Yunlu civilization, but also suppressed the tail of the border army.

The trip to the southern region of thousands of Daomen ships contains multiple meanings, and the deepest one is the unexpected meaning of cooperation in the world.

Imagine that there are four major border army shogunates outside the Heng Dynasty, and there are the most elite central legions of Yunlu inside, not to mention the invincible fleet with rich experience and amazing combat power.

Therefore, what the heads of the seven giants of Daomen talked about with the Empress Dowager of the Heng Dynasty and the cabinet was actually a matter of cooperation.

It is precisely because of this kind of thing that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages that we can obtain the support of the Empress Dowager of the Heng Dynasty, make the cabinet princes bow their heads, make the Heng Dynasty army pretend to be deaf and dumb, and make the Daomen operation extremely smooth.

It's just that after the olive branch of Daomen was caught by the Empress Dowager Hengchao, it played a change that she didn't expect, she thought that with the support of Daomen and the military, she could easily settle internal disputes like those heroines in the annals of history, but she didn't expect that she overestimated her talent too much, and underestimated Daomen's plan too much.

Long before her, Daomen had contacts with some parties within the court, and her self-righteous actions broke the balance of the court!

When the Retro Party was operating in the southern region of Daomen, Xiangqing took advantage of the situation! The faction of the military, which regarded Daomen as a sworn enemy, was extremely disappointed in her move of luring the wolf into the house! The local families in various states and counties began to doubt the intentions of the imperial family, and some great Confucians of the Hundred Schools of Thought also made perverse and unrequited remarks.

The Queen Mother, who was so anxious, was hit one after another, not only lost her original ambition, but also planned to hide in the deep palace and never show up again.

Fortunately, she still has the national teacher to rely on, and at her suggestion, she got in touch with the desperate reform party, reactivated the twelve prisons of the inner court, and began to fight back.

And the retro party, which was in the limelight, took the place of the queen mother and became the new collaborator of the Daomen.

However, after all, they are not rightly named, and they do not have the righteous name of the Heng Dynasty royal family, so the seven giants of the Daomen put on a posture of staying out of the matter and let the second-level hodgepodge alliance negotiate with them.

The plan of Daomen and Heng Dynasty to join forces to march west was circulated at the top of the major forces not long after the end of the operation in the Southern Regions.

The strength of the Constant Dynasty Armada was obvious to all six years ago. The prestige accumulated by Daomen for 10,000 years is well known to all Yunlu. The combination of the two sides will surely open up a new path

Many monk sects and vassal powerhouses poured into the chowder alliance, and even the Demon Dao sect joined in to get a piece of the pie.

It's just that there are still a huge number of opponents of the Western Expedition Plan, and the first to bear the brunt is the voice within the Hundred Schools of Thought, although the retro party interpretation is a necessary means to worship literature and suppress martial arts, but those conservative Confucians, mountain chiefs, pedants, and temple owners will not listen to its explanation, they are not even afraid of Emperor Wu, let alone a new party?

Just when the retro party had a headache, the news that Xiao Qingshan had become a living dead came, so they used this as a breakthrough and began to divert their attention.

If you want to say who these stubborn Confucians hate the most? It has to be Xiao Qingshan, the sinner of the ages.

When Xiao Qingshan was a royal official, he was known for his unkindness, and during his tenure, he even proposed to punish corrupt officials with severe punishment, and all officials who embezzled bribes of more than 80 times should be punished with the death penalty of stripping the skin and grass, which caused the anger of the scholars. And his act of slaughtering the Wensheng family in the battle to destroy the demons made a group of Confucian scholars like digging up the ancestral graves, not only the people they knew cut their robes and cut off their friendships, but even many famous veterans went to cry collectively for group activities in the Imperial Mausoleum and the Temple of Literature.

Just when the retro party shifted its attention, a poem newspaper signed by Xiao Qingshan appeared in the capital of Leizhou at the right time, like a boulder thrown into a lake, causing countless waves......

As a result, the retro party has a justifiable reason to kill, Yunlu's westward expedition to the Apennines will have the name of righteousness, and the remnants of the Restoration will be wiped out, and even the Daomen will believe in their sincerity...... With such a multi-pronged action, only tens of thousands of grass people in small border towns were sacrificed, so why not do it?

It's a pity that the foolproof actions in the eyes of the retro party and all parties were ruined by the prepared Restoration Party, and the enhanced version of the dragon soul recruited by Xiao Qiang made the situation even worse.

"Huh...... The seven sword immortals led the team, and they also held the Escape to the Treasure Heaven Escape Mirror of their own faction, and now only one person is alive, let me wait for how to explain to the master and the peak masters!"

"The Soul Tablet in the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals shows that only two of our participants in this operation survived. One of them is Meng Liuli, an important figure in the Taishang Dao, and the other is Ling Yihan, an overseer disciple of my faction. ”

"I naturally don't know what happened, but based on the celestial phenomena and dragon vein changes, it should be Wenzong who summoned the dragon soul, causing the situation to get out of control. ”

"Then why did the monks registered in the imperial court also die?

"Could it be a trap set by the retro party and deliberately harming my Taoist elite?"

Several Daoists argued with each other, and the three-thousand-year-old gap between the inland dynasty and the foreign sect made them naturally distrust each other.

"The contemptible suggests finding the overseer disciple as quickly as possible, finding out the truth, and then deciding what to do. A red-clothed Taoist said cautiously.

The female Taoist in Tsing Yi, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke: "Yi Han is the true inheritance of our sword spirit lineage, and although her immortal sword possessed by her soul is not high, it can allow her to enter a state of suspended animation at a critical juncture and maximize the survival rate." ”

"Fake death? This is troublesome, if Taishang Dao dies to keep Dream Liuli, it is possible to use Yi Han in a coma as a target and put the responsibility on my faction. Another yellow-clothed Taoist said solemnly.

"Unlikely. A blue-clothed Taoist shook his head and said, "Their sect master at the peak of the True Monarch is dead, and there is no supreme person in the sect, although it can still be regarded as a super-first-class force, but it is very different from this sect, how can it be so unwise?"

"If they really don't plan to do this, why don't they contact the sect?" asked the yellow-clothed Taoist, and everyone was silent for a moment.

The transmission notes of the Dao Gate have long been popularized in the outer regions, unlike the inland where there is the interference of the dragon veins, the transmission distance of the top sound transmission magic devices in the outer continents can reach thousands of miles away, if Taishang Dao wants to discuss with Emei, it will not be delayed for so long.

"Anyway, they are all sects that recruited together in the past, don't you miss the old feelings at all?"

"Hey......! The incense has long been cut off, and people would rather be in Qinglou than be with us. ”

"Maybe it's because you know that the real person in charge of the sect and the elders are in the Demon Suppression Tower, and you don't believe us second-tier elders?" said a Taoist.

The Taishang Dao Sect Master died, the Emei Palm Sect was trapped in the Demon Suppression Tower, and there were problems at the highest levels of both sides, and the agreement reached by them could be overturned by the returning superiors, so there was no guarantee.

"If you calculate it carefully, all the sects of the Taizi Alliance are not much worse than us combined...... "Some Daoists feel that Taishang Dao has motivation and strength.

"It may have been the case before, but if there are problems with several important sects of the Taizi Alliance, Taishang Dao may not dare to take this risk. Another Taoist objected and gave reasons.

The Taizi Alliance was an alliance formed by the remnants of the Taiping Dao League during the Age of Navigation.

At this time, only the eight sects of the past were left Taiji, Taichu, Taishang, and Taixu four families existed completely, and the remaining four schools were washed out in more than 2,000 years or perished, or decomposed. Now there are problems with several pillars of the Taizi Alliance, so the Taishang Dao, who has strong financial resources, can become the leader of the alliance.

"Taijimen, which implements the route of the integration of Taoism and martial arts, was forced to close the mountain because it provoked a madman surnamed Xu. ”

"The powerful Taixu Sect, a hundred years ago, because of the rebellion of the Zhenzong artifact, all of them fell into the realm of too illusory, and even the sect became a forbidden area for thousands of miles. ”

"As for Taichu, he is fighting against the historian school among the hundred schools, and he is inseparable at all. ”

"In addition, although the three families of Tailing, Taixiao, and Taiyin are first-class sects, they all participated in the Stone City operation and suffered heavy losses. ”

"The remaining more than 20 sects, such as Taifu, Taiqiong, Taisu, and Taidan, are all second- and third-rate sects, and even the immortal Dao powerhouses can't make up ten people...... No worries. ”

"That makes sense!" the purple-clothed Taoist nodded, "However, this sect is in trouble because of cracking the Heavenly Demon, and many disciples have died in this operation, which will inevitably make some friends have thoughts that they shouldn't have......"

Emei's action to dissect the Heavenly Demons was extremely unsmooth, and the captured Heavenly Demons would explode bizarrely once they were involved in otherworldly knowledge, and after they died, they would strengthen the energy of the Heavenly Demon Relics such as the Demon Suppression Tower, the Zhuxian Sword, and the Spirit Sword Mountain, resulting in a riot.

Now most of Emei's forces have been put into suppression, whether it is the world in the tower or the cave in the sword, or the space of the Spirit Sword Mountain, there are elites from all peaks and veins, and the team sent to supervise Stone City is already the strongest team they can make up, and this time the whole army has been wiped out, resulting in Emei not having many people to deal with other situations.

"There is competition between the antiquities and our weapons industry...... I have to guard against it. ”

"The Zixiao faction was established less than a thousand years ago, inheriting the Taoist system of Hengshui and Foxconn in the past, and is ambitious...... I have to guard against it. ”

"Shenshui Palace had a duel with the four elders of our Sword Immortal lineage three years ago, and those women had small bellies and chicken intestines...... I have to guard against it. ”

"Fifty years ago, the Creation Sect used plant transformation technology to make a cheap grass sword, and after being warned by us, it did not repent, and now it is ready to move...... I have to guard against it. ”

"The Luofu Mountain Sword Cultivation Department claims to have found the ancestral sword sect exercises in the Zongguo era, and after the faction issued an infringement statement, they still dare to claim to be the ancestral court, obviously supported by other forces, and now they are in contact with the Taichu and the Historian School, in a vain attempt to tamper with history...... I have to guard against it. ”

……

……

The seven elders analyzed the situation sentence by sentence, and found that there were too many allies that they had to guard against in this Sword Cultivation Ancestral Court! Although the other party would not make obvious hostile moves, it was normal for them to secretly erode the Emei industry, spread Emei rumors, and squeeze Emei's market share.

"It seems that we must use the background of our own sect in order to deter the ugly!" said the purple-clothed Taoist seriously.

'It's time for us to play. The six Daoists were instantly refreshed, their eyes were full of light, the sword patterns of their whole bodies flashed, and their immortal power was boiling.

"Use our authority to open the sealed treasure house of Spirit Sword Mountain and awaken the green amber in the purple and green two swords!"

……

In a short time, the mountains rumbled loudly!

Thousands of mountain peaks and sword towers were shrouded in an eggshell-shaped light curtain, and in the depths of the earth, the majestic and vast earth evil qi was continuously extracted and integrated into the light curtain.

Crackle Crackle!!

The eggshell light curtain that filled the sky faintly flashed with electric arcs.
