There are no main formation flags, in fact, there are less than 500, because of the outbreak of the Hidden Yunze War, there are some places where no one has to pick up the array flags, and some of the array flags have become ownerless because the master is dead, and there are only more than 400 people who have the master. After Xuanguang Zhenren finished reporting one by one, he raised his voice and said: "According to the rules of the big competition, the following sects will lose in the big competition, and according to the example, the foundation of this sect will not exist!" After speaking, he reported the sects one by one.

The name he read, at least thirty or forty, half of which even the head of the sect died in it, but it saved a lot of effort, although these sects are not very big, but the added up of the foundation is also a lot, except for those who can ask for it above the Dan period, the rest of the disciples will also be divided by the winner. Therefore, the disciples of these sects have been guarded by the royal family in advance.

After these were announced, Xuanguang Zhenren said: "After receiving the order of the owner, the previous covenant of washing the sword pool may not be able to be fulfilled, so the date is postponed, and the master will bring five magic weapons and grant them to you as compensation." The winner of the five players will come forward. After saying that, he read out his names one by one.

Gu Yan was naturally the first, and Qin Feng actually occupied one of the seats. The rest of Yuan Zitan, Qin Zhong and others were all listed, but none of them stepped forward, and only let their own disciples lead on their behalf.

The five monks, led by Gu Yan, saluted Xuanguang Zhenren to thank Yunchi Sword Venerable for his care. Immediately, Xuanguang Zhenren took out the five magic weapons and asked them to choose.

Gu Yan glanced at Qin Feng, and saw that his face was blank, expressionless, and he didn't even look at others, while the other three asked Gu Yan to step forward.

Five magic weapons are placed in front of them one by one, there are offensive ones, defensive ones, some treasures are brilliant, and some are rusty and full of ancient meaning. But none of them look ordinary.

Gu Yan was unable to decide for a while, her own magic weapons were all obtained from birth and death, and she could be allowed to review the opportunity to be examined like this. It's really rare.

She hesitated slightly, and suddenly saw Su Man's arrow standing on the side glaring at her, and her gaze fell on one of the magic weapons.

Gu Yan glanced over with the corner of his eye, it was a half-moon-shaped magic weapon, concave inside, like an inkstone. It seems to be made of bronze, that is, there is no brilliant treasure light, and it is not as ancient as the other head and the treasure mirror. There are countless patterns and talismans engraved on it, some of which make Gu Yan vaguely feel familiar. When she saw Su Man's encouraging eyes, she smiled and picked it up, "I'll choose this one!" ”

Xuanguang Zhenren's face remained unchanged, and he said, "Fairy Gu of the Bixia Sect." Choose one piece of Ziyun Gui! Gu Yan took it in his hand, only to find that the word "Ziyungui" was engraved in ancient characters underneath, and then Xuanguang Zhenren gave her another jade slip. It describes the usage of this treasure.

Gu Yan penetrated his divine thoughts, it turned out that this was a magic weapon that the owner of the Tibetan Sword Villa had inadvertently obtained on an overseas island for two generations, and it began to be encased in a huge turtle shell, with a formation prohibition engraved on it, and then the owner of the village spent a lot of effort to finally break the prohibition before taking out this piece of Wuyun Gui, but he didn't know how to use it. Later, I practiced by myself and explored it, only to know that it was used for flying, and its speed was as fast as electricity, thousands of miles away, and it was also instantaneous. And if there is an enemy attack, this treasure can be sacrificed, where the hardware belongs to, or the flame can not attack, it is a rare protective weapon.

Gu Yan was quite satisfied in his heart, so he put away this treasure, at this time, the people sent by Yuan Zitan and Qin Zhong had been selected, Qin Feng took a sword, and one of Zuihou's was taken by a big faction elder in Yueyang County, northern Yunze.

The distribution of the five magic weapons has been completed, Gu Yan saw Su Manjian glancing at him, I don't know what else she has to say, but there are many people at this time, but there is no time to meet.

Xuanguang Zhenren said at this time: "Please come with me to the apse and discuss the distribution of this time." ”

At this time, half of the people have to wait, and those who rank first according to the rules have the right to participate in the distribution, and those who are behind can only eat some leftovers. No matter what aspect of Bixia Sect is, there is only one in the front, Gu Yan naturally took the lead, and together with Gan Biwu, he slowly walked into the apse.

The apse is much smaller than the front hall, but it is still more than enough to put down more than 100 people, the old emperor sits on the top, Xuanguang Zhenren and others live on both sides, below is a long jade platform, both sides are jade-colored stone piers, everyone will sit separately, according to the previous practice, every time, the Yuan and Qin families will be on their own side, they each other's shili, each dispute, do not let each other, the royal family can often only play a role in mediation, zuihou and their two families then exchange with each other, compromise with each other, and finally reach an agreement on distribution.

But this time it is obviously not like before, after Yuan Zitan sat down, he didn't say a word like an old monk in a fixed place, and Qin Jing, the head of the Qin family, was the same, as if he had made up his mind to keep silent, not at all like the tense situation back then.

Xuanguang Zhenren coughed, and as soon as he raised his hand, someone put a big jade plate on the platform, and countless mountains, rivers, and spiritual gardens appeared on it. He said: "This is the resource that can be allocated this time, and everyone can negotiate a charter first." ”

Although it is said that there are many dead and wounded monks, after all, there are still few sects that have been destroyed, and the thirty or forty sects that have been taken out and distributed are still mostly small sects, and the largest should be considered Cumulus Peak, but their disciple Tai Ban has already died under Gu Yan's hands, and the rest are not worth mentioning characters, and the mountain gate of Cumulus Peak, which is only hundreds of miles away from Bixia Sect, has been taken for granted as a bag. Therefore, no one brought it up.

For a while, it was a little cold, and Yun Zhanyu, who was standing on the side, was quite happy in his heart, in the previous court meeting, the Yuan and Qin families were not arrogant, and regarded the royal family as nothing, and they were arguing in the hall here, but now they are extremely honest.

At this time, Gu Yan suddenly said lightly: "I want the Flying Bird Gate, and the rest of the people will discuss it." ”

Because all the disciples of the Flying Bird Gate were captured by the Qin family, most of them died in Yinyunze, and the array flag was also wiped out, except for two or three disciples who were guarded by the royal family, only Duan Wuxiu and Yu Shang were left.

Although the Asuka Gate is a sect of chickens and dogs, their accumulation over the years is not trivial, and some people covet their inheritance. But when Gu Yan opened his mouth, no one responded. At this time, Yun Zhanyu discovered that the faint power on this woman's body actually suppressed the rest of the monks who didn't dare to make a sound!

This is the prestige she has accumulated by killing countless people in the ancient battlefield, just a few faint words. Everyone didn't dare to beak, and Xuanguang Zhenren said: "Then it's decided, the disciples of the Asuka Sect, and all their inheritance." All belong to the Bixia Sect, and the rest will be discussed by everyone. ”

After Gu Yan only said that sentence, he kept silent, and the rest was Gan Biwu negotiating, as a monk, although her qualifications were only mediocre, she was an excellent leader. Between advancing and retreating, fighting for the interests of his own sect, befriending other sects, and taking care of everything accurately, Gu Yan was also admired.

It is also strange to say that during this discussion, Yuan Zitan and the Yuan family were silent, and Qin Zhong of the Qin family. He didn't show up at all, and Qin Jing was also silent, not at all like the majesty of the previous big competitions. This time it's a discussion. It went quite peacefully.

Anyway, there were precedents before, under the auspices of Xuanguang Zhenren, the distribution was quickly completed, and the Bixia Sect got all the foundations of Cumulus Peak and Asuka Gate, as well as all the investments under the Qianqiu Sect, but in line with the principle of balance, the rest of the Dongyang County that needed to be distributed did not fall into their hands, and it was also to avoid the situation that the Bixia Sect was dominating the family in Dongyang County.

After arguing a few times, Gan Biwu stopped talking. made Gu Yan quite admire her wisdom. In fact, after the Yuan and Qin families suffered heavy losses, whether it was the Tibetan Sword Villa or the royal family, they would never allow this kind of family dominance to occur again, and Bixia Sect wanted to take this opportunity to emerge. Become the third pole of the entire Yunze, but everything is too much, what Bixia Sect has to do now is to digest the shili it has absorbed, hibernate and ready to go, instead of ostentatiously replacing the position of the Yuan and Qin families. That's not a smart move.

Gan Biwu obviously would not do such an unwise act, so after expressing her attitude, she shrewdly remained silent, and in the later resolution, she continued to fight for the interests of Bixia Sect in other counties. After everything was agreed, in addition to the foundation of Dongyang County, Bixia Sect also obtained the distribution rights of several small sects in other counties, so that seventy percent of the resources allocated by the entire distribution had been divided, and the remaining thirty percent of the leftovers were left for those remaining small and medium-sized sects.

During the whole process of the resolution, Yuan Zitan did not say a word, Qin Chong simply did not come to the illness, and the patriarchs of the Yuan and Qin families were all silent, and only said less than ten words in total, presided over by the old emperor and Xuanguang Zhenren, and completed the resolution. Although on the surface, the interests of the Yuan and Qin families have not been harmed much, but those who really understand know that the spiritual veins, disciples, and foundations they have received are all inferior in those resources, not only inferior to the Bixia Sect, but even inferior to several other major sects.

Those few major sects, originally also attached to the Yuan and Qin families, but still have a certain degree of independence, although this time they are also fighting in the hidden clouds, but the main force of the warring sides is the elite of the Yuan and Qin families, the strength of these two families has been greatly damaged, but they have not lost much, after this resolution, they can't help but have a strange mind.

It's just that this one is a conspiracy on the table, and the royal family is going to take advantage of the loss of the strength of the two families to take the opportunity to weaken the shili of the two families, so what can be done? Everything in the world of cultivating immortals is about strength, admitting gambling and losing, this is the case in the world.

If Yuan Zitan knew what Gu Yan said when he was in Yinyunze, he would definitely have a sense of confidant, and in this big battle, they all became losers!

After the discussion was over, they returned to the front hall under the leadership of Xuanguang Zhenren and informed those who were still waiting for the results of the discussion. The remaining thirty percent of the resources were then distributed by those small and medium-sized sects, and under the auspices of the royal family, they were quickly distributed, and no one left a beak. At this point, the aftermath of this big competition can be regarded as a successful conclusion. After Xuanguang Zhenren announced this matter with a smile on his face, he said to Gu Yan and the others: "There is still something to do in this gate, I am inconvenient to stay longer, so I will go back, when the sword washing pool is reopened, the master will personally send a letter, and then invite you to enter the sword washing pool to try, and the matter of this door will never break my word." ”

Gu Yan and the others bowed down to thank him, and Su Manjian immediately walked up, took Gu Yan's hand, and said with some regret: "I originally thought that after Dabi, I could talk to my sister, but the division still has important matters, so I have to leave immediately, and I hope that there will be a period of zaijian in the future." ”

Gu Yan said with a smile: "In the future, I will visit the Tibetan Sword Villa, I just hope that the Venerable Master will not turn me away." ”

Su Manjian laughed, the two sword eyebrows flew, and the majesty was gradually revealed, and she, the personal disciple of the head of the family, undoubtedly had to take on more responsibilities now. years ago. When he was defending the country, he was still a few young monks, but now he has come to prominence.

Su Manjian glanced at Qin Feng who was standing on the side again, and didn't speak to him. Bidding farewell to Gu Yan again, then the people of the Tibetan Sword Villa led by Xuanguang Zhenren stepped on a long sword, bowed goodbye to everyone, and then flew away through the air. The sword flashed into the sky, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Gu Yan was a little strange, originally Yun Ze's shili was reshuffled. It stands to reason that these people should stay in Yunyang City for a while longer to help the people in the royal family and take care of the affairs of the entire Yunze. But these people came and went in a hurry, and after they had finished taking care of these things, they didn't stay for a moment. Could it be that something happened to the Hidden Sword Villa?

Just looking at Su Man's arrow, but it didn't look like there was something big, Gu Yan didn't think about it anymore. There is still no time before the day when the sword washing pool will be reopened. She glanced at Qin Feng again and saw that his face was pale. Obviously, she looked haggard these days, so she sighed, did not say goodbye, turned her head away, and from then on, this person was completely erased from her heart.

Everyone dispersed, and the county guard Yue Yi had been participating in the process of the decision, and at this time he returned with Gu Yan and the others, and after he went back and announced the entire decision. Then he will return with them to the clouds. It's just that when he came out of the palace, he peeked at Yun Zhanyu who was standing beside the old emperor, and saw that his face was silent, and he didn't seem to be happy. I couldn't help but think in my heart: This eldest prince is the most flamboyant on weekdays, why didn't he say a word today. And why did the thought he vaguely expressed suddenly die again?

When everyone returned to the post house, Gan Biwu gathered everyone together, and then announced the result of the resolution, and Wei Lengqiu also expressed his willingness to belong to the Bixia Sect on the spot, and from then on he would serve as a disciple. The elders will discuss and appoint him as an elder, and the entire sect will be merged into the Bixia Sect, and the disciples will also be disciples of the Bixia Sect, so they don't have to endure hard labor, but the inheritance of the sect will be cut off.

Bi Zhenzhen wants to stay in Danxia Mountain for a long time, and the foundation of Cumulus Peak will be received by Lan Xiang with Elder Yang and others, and in the future, the entire Cumulus Peak and the mountain gate of Danxia Mountain will be merged into one and become the mountain gate of Bixia Sect.

Bi Zhenzhen took Zhu Ying, together with Duan Wuxiu, to transfer all the accumulations of the Flying Bird Gate to Danxia Mountain, and Gan Biwu took Lin Zitong to be responsible for the distribution of the rest of the counties. Only Gu Yan had nothing to do, she re-refined the Ziyun Gui with her own fire spirit sacrifice, refining it to the same heart, and then with a silent word, she went back to the Bixia Sect by herself.

At this time, in the imperial city, in a room, the old emperor was sitting quietly on the jade couch, his eyes lowered, as if he didn't care about everything.

And Yun Zhanyu stood in front of him, raising his neck, his face was full of resentment, and said, "Why didn't my father allow me to invite?" ”

The old emperor looked at him for a long time and sighed, "Do you still feel that what you have done is justified?" ”

Yun Zhanyu was a little uneasy at his intimidating gaze, but he still stiffened his neck and said: "Isn't what I said right, now that the Yuan and Qin families are weak, they can only hide in the corner to recuperate, isn't it just an opportunity for us to take the opportunity to revive the prestige of the royal family and regain power?" ”

The old emperor sighed, "You are not bad, but if you want to regain power, you don't necessarily have to use your methods. ”

Yun Zhanyu said: "Naturally, you can't pin all your hopes on this, but Bixia Sect is an upstart, and the royal family has the name of Yunze in Yongzhen, so why not join forces with the two to suppress the Yuan and Qin families?" ”

The old emperor said lightly: "I don't object to supporting Bixia Sect, but I am whimsical and want to marry someone else's elder, how can this matter be done?" ”

Yun Zhanyu was still a little happy when he heard the first half of the sentence, and then he was stunned, "So what?" What is the most reliable way to unite the two than to marry? Moreover, that Gu Fairy is now almost the first person in the hearts of the entire Yunze monks, she is equivalent to eighty percent of the combat power of the Bixia Sect, as long as she is firmly pulled, then the Bixia Sect can be used by us, first support the Bixia Sect, let Yun Ze become a full third, and then slowly weaken the authority of the Yuan and Qin families, to Zuihou, we can repeat the scenery of the royal family back then, and take charge of the authority of the entire Yunze! ”

He said more and more, his face was full of excitement, but the old emperor did not move, he sighed long, and said with some hatred: "You think like this, it was originally right, but you just thought about it, and you shouldn't fight that Gu Fairy's idea!" Do you think that if you go to ask for marriage, people will marry you obediently? ”

Yun Zhanyu was stunned. He really didn't think of that. But he thought that Gu Yan was originally a casual cultivator, and now although the Bixia Sect has sprung up and overwhelmed Yunze, it is still an upstart after all. In terms of power and strategy, only by marrying with the royal family can Bixia Sect become a powerful sect in Yunze, and it is divided from the Yuan and Qin families. If Gu Yan was really wise, she wouldn't fail to take these gains and losses into account.

The old emperor didn't seem to understand the roe deer, and tapped his forehead heavily with his fingers, "Ah." It seems to have forgotten that Fairy Gu, she has always been a monk! ”

He stood up from the jade couch and said in a deep voice: "Can't you see her Dao heart and persistence, that Fairy Gu is a person who is dedicated to pursuing the Great Dao, and the rest are not taken to heart." The Bixia Sect was established by her. Otherwise, what qualifications does you think that the broken sect from the southeast can stand proudly? ”

Yun Zhanyu said with some reluctance: "If she doesn't agree, will she watch Bixia Sect lose this opportunity." Isn't she afraid? ”

The old emperor said angrily: "Why don't you understand? Bixia Sect is her concern, but it is not a shackle, she will never live here for a long time, one day, she will pursue her own avenue. Do you still want to tie her to this place for a long time? And this woman's temperament is quite stubborn, she will never be threatened, if she threatens her with Bixia Sect, she is not afraid that she will be angry and draw her sword? When the time comes, the whole royal family will suffer! ”

He even said this, as if he was a little tired. sat on the jade couch again, and said in a low voice: "And do you think that the Tibetan Sword Villa will sit idly by and ignore these things?" ”

Yun Zhanyu's whole body was shocked, as if he had thought of something, and he looked at the old emperor in disbelief.

The old emperor sighed in a low voice: "The chaos of Yunze. Do you think that Yunchi Jianzun doesn't know in his heart? For the Nine Sects, they are high above, and the rest are ants under their feet, and they fight each other in a vertical and horizontal manner, but they maintain the overall rules unchanged. Therefore, they will not rashly interfere in Yun Ze's affairs, but only intervene through rules. If we really weaken the Yuan and Qin families, and the royal family completely controls Yunze, then some people will not be at ease. ”

He said leisurely: "Between the world, it is difficult to say, so let's follow the trend." His words are full of the vicissitudes of seeing through the world, but he doesn't know how much blood his son needs to expend before he can understand the truth.

He saw that Yun Zhanyu lowered his head and didn't speak, so he said: "Bixia Sect needs support, at least in Yunze, it must become a three-legged momentum, only in this way can the royal family operate freely in it, inheriting the Tibetan Sword Villa and connecting the various factions of Yunze, this is the real way of the royal family." I am old, and I will return to dust, and I will have to deal with these things. Just remember, never talk about that again! ”

His face showed an incomparably fierce color, Yun Zhanyu was startled, and he said yes. The old emperor sighed leisurely: "In the blink of an eye, it will be another reincarnation, and in another thirty years, no one will know what it will look like." ”

Gu Yan naturally didn't know that the father and son, because of herself, there was a small dispute, and she had everything in Yunyang City, so she leisurely took silent words, all the way up the mountains and rivers, and it took half a month to return to Danxia Mountain.

When they arrived at Danxia Mountain, all the disciples naturally came to greet them, and Mo Yan excitedly told them those stories, Gu Yan only smiled. When she returned to the Spiritual Garden, Zhang Daniu came to visit, and Gu Yan looked at the Spiritual Garden, where every grass and tree was carefully taken care of by him, and it was growing well, so he praised him a few words.

Then Gu Yan implanted a few spirit plants that he had newly acquired in the ancient battlefield into the Spirit Garden. After another two months, Gan Biwu, Bi Zhenzhen and others finished the matter, everyone turned back to Danxia Mountain, and Gu Yan gathered everyone together and announced that he was going to retreat.

Everyone has heard her say it, and it is not surprising, anyway, after Dabi, there will be a recovery period of several years as usual, especially this time Yunze's monks are seriously injured, probably this process will last for more than ten years, everything is calm, let Gu Yan meditate with peace of mind, and no longer have to worry about foreign affairs.

Gu Yan arranged everything, and asked Zhang Danian to continue to take care of the Spirit Garden, arranged his homework for Mo Yan, and entered the Eight Extremes Chaos Yuan Array in the Spirit Garden.

She will go out once a year to check the growth of the Spirit Garden, and test the homework of silent words, but she does not ask the outer sects of the Bixia Sect, and she is quite leisurely in her heart. More than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye. Under Gu Yan's careful teaching, Mo Yan laid a very solid foundation, and after three years of refining qi, she was finally ready to start building the foundation, she retreated in the spiritual garden, in the formation built by Gu Yan, and meditated on cultivation, this retreat was half a year.

Half a year has passed since the last time Gu Yan switched out, and on this day, Zhang Daniu was standing in front of the spiritual garden and watching. As he grew older, he grew a short beard and began to become calm.

Over the years, the Spirit Garden has relied on his management and careful service, and many spirit grasses have begun to mature, and Gu Yan and the alchemists in the Bixia Sect have taken a lot of them for alchemy. And Zhang Daniu did not delay his cultivation while serving the spirit grass, Gu Yan passed on the natural way of heaven and earth that Rong Lao had comprehended to him, and in the past ten years, his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and he has steadily entered the late stage of foundation building. Counting, he is the fastest one among these people except Lin Zitong. He thought that the last time Gu Yan said that in another half a year, she would be able to complete her work, and at that time, he would have to tell Gu Yan that he was going to retreat and practice, even if he was not as good as Senior Sister Lin, he would have to try at least once.

At this time, a blue light suddenly flew outside the mountain, and a heroic girl between her eyebrows appeared on the mountain rock, it was Lin Zitong. She is the first monk to marry Dan among these junior disciples of the Bixia Sect. She and Zhu Ying, who practiced in the secret realm of Xuandu together, and had the assistance of Gu Yan's elixir, and the foundation was very good. Finally, three months ago, Lin Zitong switched out, and he succeeded in attacking the Yudan, becoming the tenth Jiedan monk in the Bixia Sect. And the warblers, who were similar to her, are still in retreat, and the results are not yet known.

When Zhang Daniu saw Lin Zitong, he stepped forward and said with a smile: "How can Senior Sister Lin be free today?" ”

Lin Zitong is now a personal disciple of the head of the sect, handling the affairs of the sect for Gan Biwu, and is the first person to take over as the head of the sect in the future, and her majesty is getting heavier and heavier.

She chatted with Zhang Daniu for a few words, and then said: "There is a flying book in the Tibetan Sword Villa, and the sword washing pool is about to be reopened, so I specially came to summon the news!" (To be continued)
