Since the disappearance of Tianfuzi after the vicious battle with Miao Wei and Hua Chengfeng, the Shushan faction left only one Taishang Elder Ximen Kong. In the past two hundred years, although three disciples of the Yudan have successfully advanced to the Yuanying stage, and two of the elders in the middle of the Yuanying period have also been promoted to the late Yuanying stage, none of them have broken through the barrier of the Yuanying to reach the post-Yuanying realm.

The sect master of the Imperial Fragrance Sect, Hua Mantian, broke through decades ago and reached the Houyuan Infant Realm, and shortly thereafter, the Miaojing Great Elder of the Miaomen broke through to the Houyuan Infant Realm, plus the Miaokong of the Miaomen, so that the two factions had three Houyuan Infant Realm monks, and their strength increased greatly.

Although Miao Jing has always been quiet and elegant, she does not care about the world and cultivates wholeheartedly, and she did not participate in the battle with Shushan after being promoted, but after all, she is in charge of the door. Miaokong and Hua Mantian started a group of cultivators, expanded all the way to the south, contacted a cadre sect such as the Jile Gate and the Baihua Sect, and squeezed the Shushan faction out of the Central Ring Region, and the sphere of influence did not leave the Meiling Mountains.

In Hongyuan City, an important town in the north of Meiling, the two sides confronted each other, and each suffered a lot of damage in several battles. In the end, the elder of Ximen Kongtai fought alone Miaokong and Hua Mantian, and in the end, although the two had the advantage, they were helpless Ximen Konghe, Ximen Kong relied on two spiritual treasures, and one attack and one defense coped with it freely.

In the last melee between the two Yuan Infant Monks, several people were injured in each of them. After all, the overall strength of the Shushan faction was weaker, and Ximen Kong took the initiative to retreat from Meiling for the strength of the Baozong Sect. Miaokong and the others did not dare to force too much to temporarily hold the Meiling line, waiting for the opportunity to move again.

The disciples of the Miaomen stationed in Hongyuan City heard that there were grass and tree spirits in Meiling Mountain, and they broke into the mountain in batches to meet Feng Chengqing and chase them all the way to this point. Feng Chengqing and the others panicked, and they were fortunate to meet the two of them, otherwise they would not have escaped being killed. Speaking of this, they once again thanked Bei Mingxuan.

Bei Mingxuan also talked about his origin, and he naturally took out his remarks to Elder Xiang of Baicao Hall and repeated it. Feng Chengqing comforted, Ji people have their own celestial phenomena, and asked about the relationship with Tianfuzi, Bei Mingxuan explained that the matter is very important, and it is best to meet with Elder Ximen Taishang. Feng Chengqing and others have a difficult face, after all, there are tens of thousands of disciples in the inner gate of Shushan, Ximen Taishang retreats and ignores mundane matters, and it is difficult for the disciples of the idle Dan to see each other, and an outsider in Beimingxuan is afraid that it will be difficult to reach and listen.

Bei Mingxuan said: "I originally wanted to join the Shushan faction, or I could meet the elders who studied literature. ”

Shi Xuehua replied: "Brother Beiming, if you want to meet Xuewen's family, it's no problem, my father and Xuewen's father are also the Dharma protectors now, and I will introduce you when I return to Shushan Island." ”

Xuewen said: "Big brother, don't talk about the news that you brought back your grandfather, just rely on you to save me and save my sister, if my father and uncle don't see you, I will ignore them." ”

Everyone laughed at his childish words. Everyone rested for a while, and after each recovered their true essence, they set off together. Judging from the map, this location is not far from the intersection of the east and west lines on the south side of the Meiling River. There are enough "four treasures" in the Northern Immortal Xuan Storage Ring, and there is nothing to do all the way, passing through the gopher herd safely.

In the "Three Evils of Meiling", only the locust swarm was not encountered, and the effectiveness of the "Four Treasures" has been verified. After the group walked out of the mountain range, they did not stop at the market town of Lotus in the south, but Feng Chengqing took out a flying boat, and everyone boarded the flying boat and went straight to Hongchang City.

The ancient city of Hongchang City is the northernmost large city with a long history in the Southern Jin Dynasty, Hongchang City is built near the Taojiang River, although it is in the plain area, it is a military fortress that the Shushan faction focuses on protecting by blocking the throat road to the south.

Seeing the city from afar, Bei Mingxuan was shocked by the huge outline of the city for the first time. The city wall, which is more than 50 meters high and more than 100 miles long, is densely covered with huge repeating machine crossbows, which are obviously not low-level magic weapons. From time to time, the streamer of the magic circle flashed on the huge stone wall, and from time to time there were patrols wearing uniform armor on the city wall.

They were still 20 miles away from the city wall, and several powerful divine senses had already swept through them several times. Five miles away from the city, Feng Chengqing lowered the flying boat, and then he arrived at the forbidden area and had to walk into the city. The inventory of entering the city was very strict, even if there was a recommendation from the disciples of Shushan, the monks guarding the city still used magic weapons to scan very carefully, and interrogated for a long time before issuing two tokens to enter the city. This is a temporary entry card, after Xuewen arrives at the Shushan station, you can exchange it for the identity card of the official disciple of Shushan, and the North Mingxuan will temporarily go to the station in the city as a guest sent by Shushan.

Because Shi Xuehua was on the way, he informed Chen Xuewen of the news of his safe return through the contact device in the door. When the six of them arrived at the station, Chen Pinji, Shi Pinhai and other relatives all rushed from everywhere to wait. When Chen Xuewen saw his father who he hadn't seen for eight years and his uncle who he had never seen, he remembered his mother's tragic death, and couldn't help but throw himself into his father's arms and cry bitterly.

Chen Pinji is not young but only has one child, Xuewen, and has no intention of finding another partner after the death of his beloved wife. Seeing that his son was unharmed, he was even more agitated, and the old tears were rampant, and Shi Pinhai, Shi Xuehua and others comforted him on the side. Chen Xuewen stopped his sadness, and after saluting his uncle and relatives and elders, he hurriedly introduced the Northern Mystery to his father and uncle.

Bei Mingxuan stepped forward and hugged his fists: "Bei Mingxuan has seen all the seniors. ”

Chen Pinji caught up a few steps forward and took his hand and said: "Brother, don't be polite, if it weren't for your righteous help, this child doesn't know when he will be able to return to Shushan, and my father and son don't know how long it will take to see each other." I don't thank you for my kindness, if I need anything, I don't want to mention it, as long as I can do it, I will never shirk it. ”

Shi Pinhai and others also came to meet each other, and their words were very affectionate. After a cold noise, he came to the residence of the station, and the old habits of Yanlong were still ancient in the fairyland. In order to celebrate the return of Xuewen and welcome the North Mingxuan, a feast was held, drinking and tasting fruits, and talking and dispersing.

After the banquet was dispersed, Chen Pinji and Shi Pinhai invited Bei Mingxuan to the secret room to talk, and Chen Xuewen accompanied him. Bei Mingxuan came to the two of them one by one when he entered the cave and saw the relics of the ancestor of Tianfuzi, and did not hide it, Chen Pinji is the descendant of Tianfuzi, and he was shocked to hear that the ancestors were gone, and he couldn't help but feel sad.

The Chen clan was originally searching for ancestors in the Extremely Cold Ice Domain, but after the four Supreme Elders disappeared, the descendants did not return, and as a result, they were found by the Miaomen and suffered great damage. In addition, in recent years, the Shushan faction has been suppressed by the Zhongmiaomen and the Yuxiang Sect, and there are many disciples in the sect who secretly blame the Tianfuzi for leaving for no reason, causing the strength of the five great Taishang to drop without a trace, and the former overlord is now being suppressed, and it even has an impact on the Tianfuzi lineage.

Now that he learned that the ancestor was gone, it was even more shocking, and Chen Pinji and Shi Pinhai were speechless for a long time. Bei Mingxuan didn't know how to comfort him, some of the relics of Tianfuzi were marked as left to the clansmen, and he picked them up and handed them to Chen Pinji, and the statue repeatedly explained that it was to be handed over to Tianjianzi himself, so he didn't mention it.

Chen Pinji thanked Bei Ming Xuan again and said, "Brother Bei Ming, where is the ancestral cave, and it may be found now? I want to ask Elder Ming Taishang to welcome back the bones of the ancestor." ”

Bei Mingxuan replied: "Due to special reasons, the location of the cave cannot be reached at any time, so we can only wait for the opportunity." The immortal bones of the ancestor are no longer there, and even if you go, you can't find them. Some of them are critical, and the patriarch can only tell the ancestor of Tianjianzi and others, and now he is about to bother the predecessors to pass it on, I want to meet the ancestor of Ximen and ask him to show him. ”

Chen Pinji said: "That's fine, this matter is very important, and it really needs to be known to Patriarch Ximen." We rushed back to Shushan Island on the same day and asked for advice in person. If brother has any other plans, you might as well tell Brother Yu, Pinhai and I will definitely do our best. ”

Chen Xuewen said: "Father, uncle, eldest brother worshiped under the ancestors' last wishes, and practiced Shushan exercises, and he was a disciple of Shushan. ”

Chen Pinji stroked his head lovingly and said, "Your big brother Beiming is a rare talent, and the Shushan faction can't ask him to join." Don't worry, no matter what the patriarch says, your uncle and I will strongly recommend it to your ancestor and will never do anything to cross the bridge and draw the board. ”

Bei Mingxuan smiled and nodded in thanks, and after a few people gossiped for a while, Bei Mingxuan pulled Xuewen out and said goodbye.

After Chen Pinji and the two of them sent out, they sat down, and Shi Pinhai said: "Big brother, this Bei Mingxuan is not young, and his skill is not high, how can you praise him for being a rare talent? And his words are not full of untruths, he can reach the place when there is still him in the fairyland, and now even you and I can't go? At this eventful time, my brother still has to be careful." ”

Chen Pinji said with a smile: "Pinhai, you are too worried, there are all kinds of strange situations in the unknown area of the fairyland. Except for the vague origin of this brother, there is no doubt about the other plots, and he is a man worthy of associating with him. He is a person who understands the proportion of advance and retreat, and is not arrogant. He has been asking to see Patriarch Simon, and I think he still has some inadequacies and humanity. Besides, he supported Xuewen all the way and tried his best to save Xuehua's life in Meiling Mountain, just these two things are enough to make you and me treat each other sincerely. He has already obtained the complete mantle of his ancestors, and he doesn't need to plan anything, he can come from thousands of miles to invest, tell the secrets, and his sincerity can be seen every day. Pinhai, I know that you have always been cautious, but you and I cultivators should be like a child, and we can only be grateful and not be wrong. ”

Shi Pinhai nodded awkwardly: "The lesson of the eldest brother is that I am too demanding, not to mention the rest, he tried his best to save Xuehua and help Xuewen, we don't care what others do, the two of us have already received a lot of favors." ”

Chen Pinji patted him on the shoulder and said, "Tomorrow, you and my brother will visit Uncle Shi together, and ask her to introduce the Beimingxuan brothers to visit Patriarch Ximen." ”

Shi Yunhai nodded yes.

The next day, Chen Pinji led a group of more than ten people to the base near the south through the sect's teleportation array, and after several teleportations, they also crossed the jungle and swamp twice. Because the layout of the teleportation point should not be too compact for safety reasons, but it is convenient and quick to have a flying magic weapon for the Monk of the Dry Sect.

Half a month later, Bei Mingxuan saw a huge island from the flying boat that landed, as far as the eye could see, more than a thousand miles wide, and the length could not be judged by his eyesight. The ship landed in a huge square, all paved with hard granite, surrounded by a number of huge trees that formed a retaining wall of trees.

There are all kinds of flying magic instruments that rise and fall on the square, there are poultry shapes, pavilions, houses, windmills, or frisbees or beasts, the most are still boat shapes, different sizes, it seems that this is the distribution center of the Shushan faction to go out and return to the island. On the south side of the square is a row of houses and a wide passage decorated with colorful flowers.

Chen Pinji introduced to the north of Mingxuan: Shushan Island is in the shape of a boat, the bow of the ship is to the north, which is the bow of the ship, which belongs to the management of the outer door. Entry and exit must be registered and recorded, the entire island is forbidden to the air, except for monks above the age of Yuanying, other disciples are not allowed to fly without authorization. The peaks need to communicate or teleport with each other, or be taken away by the Yuanying monk, and they can also apply for a unified internal flying boat pick-up and drop-off by the Inner Service Sect.

There are 108 large and small peaks on the island, 36 inner gates and 72 outer gates. The 36 peaks of the inner gate are divided into 6 groups, and the six Taishang elders each occupy one group, so the inner gate is divided into 6 peaks, which are Tianjian, Tiandao, Tianfu, Tianchan, Tiandan, and Sky. Each of the 6 peaks has a lineage, and now in addition to the Sky Peak, the five major Taishang are missing, but each lineage has its own high-level monk to preside, and each of them receives the disciple to inherit the exercises.
