Chapter 458: Mingzhe Protects His Life (2-in-1 Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Nanfeng Hou's approach is nothing more than taking a fancy to him as a Formation Dao Grandmaster, as well as the strength of the Yuan Sect, so that there will be such a woo.
Qin Shujian is also clear in his heart about this.
After Yuanzong annexed the Heavenly Corpse Sect and established the Yuan Pavilion, his strength was no longer what it used to be.
Whether it's in terms of strength.
Or on the resources.
The Yuan Sect was not half a point weaker than the other top sects.
Although it is said that the cultivation world has always been in a weak position compared to the imperial court.
But that is also compared to the huge imperial court, and it is by no means as simple as a place with one government and one domain.
For the princes of a prefecture.
If you can get the support of the top sects of one party, then the strength will inevitably be greatly improved.
To know.
The strength of the cultivation world, those top sects are enough to occupy half.
The remaining half is composed of other sect forces, as well as scattered cultivators.
This shows how much weight the top bulk occupies.
"Zhang Yi unified Nanfeng Mansion, and his strength is indeed first-class among many princes, but unfortunately compared to the strength of the princes, I value the heritage of the court itself. β
"Otherwise, the matter will be settled. β
Qin Shujian shook his head secretly.
Rebellion has always been a matter of victory, not defeat, and once defeated, it is a dead end.
Now that the situation in Yuanzong is very good, what is needed in a short period of time is time, but something else.
Unless he has a brain pump, he will follow Zhang Yi to rebel.
Otherwise, this is the most appropriate way to protect oneself.
After entering Pyongcheon Prefecture.
Qin Shujian took the lead in following the position he had originally obtained, and took the lead towards a place where the demon calamity broke out.
This time, he didn't borrow the portal portal.
Mainly because the distance is not far, and if you have time to spend money on the teleportation door, it is better to fly faster than yourself.
I saw a stream of light passing across the sky, bringing a series of explosions.
Spanning a true realm.
It only took Qin Shujian less than an hour to appear at the location of the Demon Calamity.
It's justβ
The scene in front of him made Qin Shujian a little depressed.
I saw that on the charred black demonic soil below, there was not a single living being, not even a skeleton.
In the ruins, traces of the fortress can still be faintly seen.
The place is still that place.
But the demon was nowhere to be found.
Qin Shu's sword divine thoughts spread out, and soon the entire demonic land was covered.
"The demonic energy in the air is still there, but it has begun to gradually dissipate. β
"There is no trace of a demonic plague, and there is no trace of an evil spirit. β
"It seems that someone has gone before me and destroyed the demons here. β
Qin Shujian's face was gloomy, and after Shen Nian seriously swept around a few times, he took Shen Nian back in.
There is no trace of evil in the demon land.
In this case, there are only two possibilities.
One is that the demon has escaped.
The second is that the demon is dead.
If it was the former, it was impossible for the demon to flee without causing a riot, but from everything he had seen when he came, and the fact that the demon land had not spread, the probability of the demon fleeing was extremely small.
As a result, only the latter remains.
Although Qin Shujian had long thought that the demons in various places were broken and born, there must have been some demons that were destroyed by others before he arrived.
But when you really encounter it.
He still felt the heartache.
Because the demons sealed in this place are not ordinary demons, but seals laid with the Eight Star Mangheng.
So.
This demon is at least the strength of the four heavens and men.
If you are the same demon, if there is a difference in strength, the source of life and energy contributed will also be different.
A demon with four or five heavens and men can contribute a source of life comparable to two demons with two heavens and two or three demons.
Didn't stay here for long.
Qin Shujian left even though the sky was in the sky, and rushed to the next place.
Liangshan Spiritual Domain, Yuanzong.
Several sect elders gathered together at this time, as if they were gathering idlely.
Xu Yuanming took a sip of spiritual tea, then put down the teacup, looked at the other people, and said, "I suggest that Yuan Pavilion no longer take on tasks related to the imperial court and the rebels now.
Now that the situation between the two sides is tense, if the Yuan Pavilion openly accepts this kind of task, it will inevitably cause great trouble. β
Now that Yuange's reputation has begun, it has begun to provide income for Yuanzong one after another.
Most of the people who issued the tasks were some forces in the cultivation world, and some of them were scattered.
The difficulty of the task can be strong and weak.
Anyway, as long as the money is paid, the Yuan Pavilion will hang it up for him.
It's just that there is a task level assessment within the Yuan Pavilion, and then the task is given a corresponding level.
But this time.
There are also some tasks involving the court and the princes.
For example, the assassination of the ministers of the imperial court, or the assassination of such and such a prince, and the staff of a certain prince.
Even.
Even the task of assassinating Xi Yang is there.
As soon as this kind of task appeared, it was basically immediately suppressed by the Yuan Pavilion.
In the land of Jokhang, what is the difference between rewarding the emperor of Jokhang and bringing about his own destruction.
The person who posted these tasks obviously wanted to do something for Yuan Ge.
So.
During this time, for the sake of the task, Yuanzong also destroyed several forces.
Then he touched the melons along the vine, and also targeted several sects.
It's just that there is no definite evidence, and the current situation is not conducive to raising too many incidents, so I will stop for the time being.
In Xu Yuanming's opinion.
Now that the Yuan Pavilion is the strength of the original court, it is wise to protect oneself.
As for whether the refusal to accept these tasks will affect the reputation of the Yuan Pavilion, it is an irrelevant issue.
Niu Feng said: "It's okay not to accept the tasks of the court and those princes, few of those tasks can be completed when they are released, but they are innocent of others, but you can check it."
What is the origin of these release tasks?
Are these people sworn enemies, or are they just here to disgust us. β
Speaking of which.
His face was cold, and his killing intent was undisguised.
"If it's the opposite, it's fine, but if you deliberately come to frame my sect, this matter is not over!"
Although he has been an elder of Yuanzong Shoushan in recent years.
Niu Feng also slowly cultivated his body.
But the character of the head of the bandits in Mingai Mountain has not changed much.
He's not the only one.
In the entire Yuan Sect, there has never been a shortage of ruthless people.
"I'm afraid that some people will be used as gunmen, and they don't know what happened. Xu Yuanming sneered.
"Elder Xu's words are not bad, Yuan Pavilion should indeed not meddle in the affairs of the imperial court and the princes now. β
Zheng Fang, who was there with the old god, also said slowly at this time.
"The Marquis of Wu'an rebelled, the Pingxi general Luo Jing was killed, and since the rebellion of the Marquis of Qianshan set off the war to the present, it is the first time that the imperial court has suffered such a loss, and now the two sides have been angry.
Judging from the practices of Marquis Wu'an, the other rebellious princes must have an alliance secretly.
It won't be long before the world has to be reshuffled.
With the strength of our sect, it is not difficult to protect oneself, but if you meddle in it, one will turn into ashes if you are not careful. β
"The Great Elder thinks they're going to prepare for a decisive battle?"
"It's hard to say if there will be no decisive battle, but the current situation will definitely not last too long, Wu'an, Baiyong, Nanfeng, Luoyue, Qianshan and the five mansions are all opposed, and the Zhao Dynasty is going to three or four, and the other princes are also ambiguous now, but they are also waiting for an opportunity.
When these anti-thief forces accumulate to a certain extent, then even if the imperial court does not act, they will take the lead in setting off the beginning of the decisive battle.
After all, the Great Zhao has a profound heritage, and if it is given a chance to recuperate, these princes will not be able to sleep and eat. β
Zheng Fang stroked his beard, shook his head and said lightly.
In the eyes of these princes, the court itself was the greatest threat.
They can take advantage of the death of the emperor and the turmoil in the world, but after the imperial court recuperates, then this force that has been in the world for thousands of years can still sweep through the eight desolations and six combinations.
So.
These people will definitely not give the imperial court a respite.
Moreover, for these princes, the purpose of the rebellion is only one, that is, to sit in the position of the former emperor.
The court is immortal.
Then this position will forever fall into the hands of the royal family.
Even if someone establishes a country, it is not justified in the end, and it is difficult to truly convince the public.
Arguably.
For more than 6,000 years, Jokhang has left an indelible mark on the world.
All the people only know the orthodoxy of the Zhao, and the rest are all chaotic ministers and thieves.
To eliminate this effect.
Only by erasing the Jokhang is to erase it first, and then rely on time to dilute these influences little by little, until they finally disappear completely.
Niu Feng suddenly sneered and said: "The other princes have an ambiguous attitude now, and the actions of the Beiyun Mansion are even more incomprehensible, and we, the Marquis of Beiyun, don't know what to do." β
Mention of Beiyunhou.
The others all looked a little solemn.
If there is anyone in Beiyun Mansion who is the most feared, then only Beiyun Hou.
The other party has his back to the imperial court, not to mention that he is in charge of a government, and he is even more powerful in the realm.
When it comes to strength.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the strongest person in Beiyun Mansion.
A powerful person, let alone in the land of a mansion, even if you look at the entire world, belongs to the supreme powerhouse.
Although Yuanzong is now very close to Beiyun Hou.
In the end, it will be said.
One side represents the imperial court, and the other side represents the cultivation world of Beiyun Mansion, and the attitudes of the two sides are always very ambiguous.
And the current situation has added an uncertain factor to the relationship between the two.
If you can.
Zheng Fang and the others did not want to be enemies of Beiyun Hou.
At present, although Yuanzong's strength is strong, if he is an enemy of Beiyun Hou, it is still much worse.
Unless someday.
Yuanzong can also have a strong man who can compete with great power, otherwise, he will always be weaker than Beiyun Hou.
Xu Yuanming's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "If the Beiyun Marquis is also opposed, then the imperial court is estimated to have to collapse completely.
In this case, Beiyun Hou is afraid that he will not let us be left alone. β
"After today, our sect will temporarily tighten its strength, and close the mountain gate when necessary, so as to protect itself!"
"For now, that's all it can be. β
"Recently, the Endless Mountain Range and the Demon Clan have been moving?"
Zheng Fang's words changed sharply, and he had directly changed the topic.
Hear the words.
Xu Yuanming shook his head and said: "The Endless Mountain Range has stopped a lot during this time, and we will regularly release corresponding tasks for those disciples to go in and kill demon beasts, so we don't have to worry about the beast tide in a short period of time."
However, the demon clan has heard some movements. β
"Demon Clan?"
Zheng Fang's face was a little more solemn.
The demon clan is the biggest problem.
As a race that can rival the human race in its heyday, only when the human emperor is alive can he stabilize his head.
Such strength.
It's no longer something that one or two sects can compete with.
Unless the strength of the entire human race is counted, otherwise, you will have to retreat in the face of the demon race.
Xu Yuanming said: "I heard that a demon saint was born in the demon clan, and I went to Qianshan Mansion to cooperate with Gu Changqing. β
"The Demon Saint is born!"
"Although this source cannot be traced to the truth, it is unlikely that it will be false. β
"The stakes of the Demon Saint are very high, and the relationship between the two clans is delicate now, if there is really a Demon Saint born, it is impossible for the news to spread so quickly. β
"What if the news comes from the demon clan?"
Xu Yuanming smiled slightly, and he was also a little worried about the source of this news.
The Demon Saint is extraordinary.
When the news spreads, the biggest possibility is that the demon clan is secretly spreading.
As for the purpose, it is not known for the time being.
But.
These things didn't have much impact on them, but the birth of the demon saint also proved that the demon clan was no longer willing to watch the play silently, but planned to participate in it in person.
Now Jokhang is facing collapse.
The demon clan made a move at this time, and the timing was about the same.
"Beiyun Mansion is now close to the Demon Clan, and there is the powerful Beiyun Hou in charge, if the Demon Clan doesn't do it, it will definitely be a thunderous blow, and we still need to prepare early. β
Zeng Hong looked solemn and said in a deep voice.
"Especially the Liangshan Spirit Domain is close to the Endless Mountain Range, if the Demon Clan makes a move, Beiyun Hou may not be able to get the news immediately. β
It is better to rely on others than on yourself.
In the end, it depends on its own strength.
Yuanzong was in the Liangshan Spiritual Domain, and to a large extent, it was decided that if the demon clan attacked on a large scale, it would be the first position.
However, after the annexation of the Heavenly Corpse Sect.
Yuanzong's strength has also grown greatly, but there is no need to worry too much.
"There is a formation left by the sect master in the Yuan Sect, and there is Jiang Feng who is sitting at the mountain gate, even if an ordinary celestial person comes, we can deal with it. β
When Niu Feng said this, he suddenly felt a little depressed.
He, the elder guarding the mountain, was a little unworthy of his name when he arrived in Jiangfeng.
When it comes to Shoushan Zhenzong, this Heavenly Corpse with Celestial-level combat power is obviously much stronger than his Niu Peak.
A Skyclave.
A realm of heaven and man.
The difference between the two realms is 108,000 miles.
Even if he gave Niu Feng one hundred and eighty years, he was not sure that he could be promoted to a celestial.
Now that Qin Shujian is out, the matters within the Yuan Sect are basically decided by a few elders led by Zheng Fang.
So after a brief discussion, some things were finalized.
First of all, there is the problem of the Yuan Pavilion.
In the face of the current civil strife in the imperial court, Yuan Ge, as a force in the cultivation world, must not be able to participate in it.
Unless they also have the heart to fight for the world, or have the idea of fighting for the dragon's merit.
Otherwise.
It must be avoided.
On the other hand, it is necessary to always pay attention to the movements of the demon clan and be prepared to deal with the attack of the demon clan at any time.
"Master Hou, the Yuan Pavilion has revoked the tasks related to the court and the princes, it seems that Yuanzong is planning to protect himself. β
In the next position, Fu Bo arched his hand and said.
Beiyunhou shook his head and smiled, and said: "At this time, it is normal for Mingzhe to protect himself, and now in the situation in the world, anyone who participates in it will be broken if he is not careful."
β
For Yuanzong's approach, he also recognized it in his heart.
At this time, it is much better to protect yourself than to rush in in a daze.
Fu Bo groaned and said, "I heard that Zhang Yi, the Marquis of Nanfeng, once met Qin Shujian. β
"Talents will be co-opted wherever they are, Qin Shujian is a smart person, he knows what to do. Beiyunhou didn't care at all, and said with a light smile: "Zhang Yi is now sitting in the Nanfeng Mansion, and he is quite proud in his heart. β
"It's no wonder that's the case, after all, he united with Shen Hongyin to control the imperial court, and even Pingxi's general Luo Jingjing fell. β
"Luo Jing's strength is not weak, it is a pity to fall like this. β
When it comes to Luo Jing, Beiyunhou's expression is not a little inexplicable.
Although he and this Pingxi general have a general relationship, they have also met and talked, and he also has some respect in his heart for Luo Jing, who once followed the emperor to sweep away the enemies.
Let's be honest.
After getting the news of Luo Jing's death, Beiyunhou was also shocked.
"Master Hou, now that the five mansions are all rebelling, the situation is beyond the control of the imperial court, and now most of the imperial court's troops are in the hands of the various prefectures, and there is no human emperor to suppress it, just relying on the words of the immediate holy emperor, I am afraid that it will not be suppressed. β
"What do you want to say?"
"Master Hou, now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, with the power of your power, Lord Hou, coupled with the fact that our Beiyun Mansion has been operating for many years, its strength is not weaker than other mansions.
And as long as Hou Ye raises his arms as a powerful person, the cultivation world and the strong people everywhere will inevitably come to vote.
When the Emperor was alive, we were naturally loyal to the imperial court, but now that Xi Yang has succeeded to the throne, he is much worse than the Emperor of the People, so what qualifications do I have to submit!"
Fu Bo no longer beat around the bush, and even used honorific titles for Xi Yang, and the heart of rebellion was already obvious.
Beiyunhou was not angry, and asked rhetorically, "Do you want to rebel?"
"I'm just thinking about Hou Ye, if Hou Ye is wrong, he will definitely follow him. β
"This matter will be discussed later. β
Bei Yunhou waved his hand, not wanting to talk too much about this matter.
Fu Bo's words, he naturally understood.
If it's the opposite, this is the best time.
It's justβ
Beiyun Hou understands even more that with the means of the human emperor, it is impossible to leave no backhand at all, and the collapse of the Jokhang situation so quickly makes him have a bad premonition.
All of this came too fast, too fast.
It's so fast that no one expects it.
If the Jokhang collapses, with the background of thousands of years, it is impossible for the problem to occur so quickly.
At least.
It would be more reasonable to come to this point in a few decades.
Fu Bo also knew what Beiyun Hou was thinking, and immediately answered: "Although the human emperor's methods are amazing, after all, after suppressing the world for so many years, the world has also accumulated a lot of resentment.
Now that the human emperor has failed to break through and suddenly fallen, the situation is uncontrollable, which is also a normal thing.
Time is not waiting for me, and if you hesitate too long, it will not be good to miss the opportunity. β
Although Beiyun Hou didn't want to talk about this matter, as the other party's staff, it was impossible for him to let such an opportunity pass.
Even if it angers the other party, it is not hesitant.
After all, any courtier has the idea of learning from the dragon's work, which is a matter of Guangzong and the ancestor of the glorious lintel.
Once you've done that, you'll be able to live for generations.
Now the courtiers in the court, as well as the princes of various provinces, used to follow the emperor to fight the world together.
It was not until the Jokhang was set to conquer the world and was wantonly divided that it had today's status.
That's the benefit of working from the dragon.
Now that Beiyunhou has such a big advantage, Fu Bo really doesn't want the other party to hesitate for too long and miss the opportunity.
Once the other party is successful.
Then he will be successful from Long, and Fu Jia, where he is located, will also become a famous family in the world.
When Beiyun Hou heard this, he fell into a short silence.
Obviously, he is also thinking about the pros and cons of this matter.
It is true that the Xiao family has been loyal to the imperial court for generations, but the Marquis of Beiyun is not a foolish and loyal person.
If the imperial court is worthy of his loyalty, then he will naturally stand on the side of the imperial court, but if he encounters an irreversible situation, then he will not have to die with the imperial court.
Ultimately.
There is still a question of gain and loss to consider.
"Let's take a look!" Beiyun Hou thought for a moment, but still didn't make a decision.
"Yes!"
Seeing this, Fu Bo didn't want to insist too much.
The words have come to this point, the other party still hasn't made a decision, and he doesn't dare to say too much.
After all, if you say too much, you will be suspected of forcing the palace.
"You go down first, this matter will be carefully considered. β
"Retire next!"
"Hmm. β
After Fu Bo bowed and retreated, Beiyun Hou didn't make any moves, and the voice in his head sounded again.
"Why don't you agree, if you can sit in a position, it will be of a lot of benefits to you. β
"Is there any difference between the throne?"
"That's nature!"
To Beiyun Hou's doubts, the voice responded.
"The throne of the emperor is to gather the luck of the world, and the person who sits on the throne can control the luck of the world and have great benefits.
In ancient times, there was a supreme strong man who established the heavenly court and ruled over a heaven and earth, and all the races came to the court, which was much more powerful than the human emperor today. β
"Does the Ancient Heavenly Court really exist?" Beiyun Hou's expression changed, and his heart was also shocked by this information.
It wasn't that he hadn't heard the rumors of the Ancient Heavenly Court.
After all, if you sit in a place, you will always get some ancient rumors.
It's just that these rumors are true and false, and not every one of them can be distinguished.
The voice said: "Heavenly Court naturally exists, at the beginning, the human race had a supreme powerhouse born out of thin air, swept the world and shocked all races, and finally condensed the heavenly court with the luck of all races, that was the peak of the entire human race.
It's a pity that since the arrival of the Great Tribulation, the Heavenly Court has collapsed, and many strong people in the Heavenly Court have also fallen, and all races have been killed and injured, so that now there are only a few races left.
One of them is the human race, and the other is the demon race. β
Hearing this voice, Beiyun Hou didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
He had never asked the other party about the Ancient Heavenly Court, so he didn't know that there were such rumors.
Even.
Beiyun Hou didn't know that when the ancient human race was strong, it would have such a might.
This is even more shocking than the emperor who has ruled the world and established the Jokhang for thousands of years.
But what really makes Beiyun Hou care is that.
What kind of catastrophe will cause the heavenly court to collapse and all races to be killed and injured.
