Chapter 331: Heavenly Master

In the seventh year of Daguang, Yang Rong, the ancestor of Guang, ordered the general Murong Chun to wave his troops south, and after half a year, he conquered the south, annihilated the last main army of the previous dynasty, and the former dynasty perished.

After pacifying the southern land, Guang Taizu divided the southern land into three states, namely Qianzhou, Zhuzhou, and Qinzhou. The land of the three states is the most prosperous in Qianzhou, and the area is also the most extensive, and it is known as the only one in the south.

Qianzhou is bordered by Qinzhou in the north, Zhuzhou in the east, and the majestic Daque Mountain Range in the southwest, which is higher than the other two states, and because of the fertile land, it is quite rich.

More than 30 years ago, the Immortal Sect, which was difficult to survive in the Central Plains of Great Light, moved to the southern land of Great Light in desperation in order to avoid the fierce struggle of the Central Plains Sect.

In the beginning, it was extremely difficult for the Immortals to spread in the Southlands. Immortality, as the name suggests, is the way to seek immortality, since ancient times, most of the people who have pursued immortality are high-ranking officials and nobles, ordinary people have no mind, and they have no ability to think about such an unrealistic thing as immortality, there are not many powerful people, and there are even fewer people who can be deceived by them, so the continuation of Immortality Religion has always been difficult, and the sect is scarce,

It wasn't until seven years ago that a scholar named Wu Huan ascended to the position of head of the sect.

Since ancient times, Luodi scholars are a very strange kind of people, no matter whether they have the talent to learn or not, why they will fall, but there will always be some amazing people who do some amazing things, as if it is because of Luodi Sun Mountain that their potential energy is stimulated.

Wu Huan was such a person, before he joined the Immortal Sect, he was already depressed to the point of starving to death, just because the former head of the Immortal Sect invited him to eat two steamed buns, he joined the Immortal Sect, which was also about to be cornered.

After Wu Huan joined the Immortal Sect, he burst out with a talent that stunned everyone, not only helping the former head of the sect to rectify the Immortal Sect and eliminating many sect members who ate and drank together, but also proposed a doctrinal change that affected the Immortal Sect and affected the entire Daguang Nandi--- and the audience of the Immortal Sect was changed from the aristocratic class to the commoner class.

The former head of the sect accepted Wu Huan's suggestion with the mentality of struggling before dying, but did not want to change the doctrine after the Changshengjiao was like a volcano bursting out, the number of believers soared, and the expansion of its power was jaw-dropping, and in just three years, it became the largest sect in the south of Daguang, second only to Buddhism and Taoism, which have dominated the Central Plains for thousands of years.

After the death of the previous head of the sect, Wu Huan, the former down-and-out scholar and the savior of the Immortal Sect, naturally became the new head of the Immortal Sect.

In the past few years since he became the head of the Immortal Sect, the development of the Immortal Sect has exploded into a blowout, not only spreading its power to the three southern states, but also in the Qianzhou Mansion, there is a prosperous scene of ten families believing in the Immortal Sect.

But people's ambition is never ending, and while enjoying the respect of the people, Wu Huan began to gradually set his sights on power.

Under the manipulation of Wu Huan, the former assassin of Qianzhou Mansion was transferred by the imperial court because of his lack of governance, and the new Qianzhou assassin Shi Shi had an ambiguous relationship with Wu Huan, and even Shi Bai himself was one of the believers of the Immortal Sect.

Three years ago, the first emperor died in Pengcheng, and Yang Jie's succession could not restrain the princes from all walks of life, and in order to pacify the Central Plains, Yang Jie did not have the heart to take care of the remote southern three states. In this case, Wu Huan's struggle for power changed from covert manipulation to blatant manipulation, on the one hand, he forcibly installed his own sect members as officials in the state capitals, and on the other hand, he began to form a large-scale divine cult army on the grounds of protecting the law.

In the past few years, the Immortal Sect has actually become the largest real power force in Qianzhou Prefecture, and Wu Huan has also become the real controller of Qianzhou, and many people may have begun to forget that the supreme power here should be the Qianzhou Assassin History, they only know the omnipotent Heavenly Master, and only know the ubiquitous Immortal God Cult.

There is a magnificent altar in the center of Qianzhou City, the altar is made of countless square boulders, and there is a huge square platform in the middle, which is an altar specially built by the Immortal Sect for the religious sacrifice, which has cost countless manpower and material resources.

At this time, there was a person standing in front of the copper Ding Dan furnace on the square platform, this person was wearing a gorgeous Taoist robe, holding a cyan long sword in his hand, closing his eyes and staring at the sky, standing abruptly.

Under the square platform, thousands of people on the wide sacrificial square prostrated their heads and groaned loudly.

"All things are secluded, bold and true.

Eternal bird spirit, only the mound is grace.

There is no dragon in the road, and the rain and dew exist.

Immortal soul, bless me with eternal life! ”

Tens of thousands of believers chanted in unison, and the sound pierced through the sky, which was extremely shocking.

And the Taoist standing on the high platform was none other than the head of the Immortal Sect, the Heavenly Master of the Upper Spirit --- Wu Huan.

After the believers finished singing and drinking, Wu Huan slowly opened his eyes, gently brushed the gorgeous Taoist robe, and swept the worshippers who fell to the ground in the square with an expressionless face, and then walked down from the stage step by step.

This is a monthly sacrifice to the gods of the Immortal Sect, and many believers will come to worship, including commoners, merchants, and even many officials who kneel down in it.

"The Heavenly Master has worked hard." When an elder saw Wu Huan stepping down from the stage, he bent down and respectfully took the long sword in Wu Huan's hand.

Wu Huan straightened out his wide robe, sat down on a Taishi chair, and said expressionlessly, "How is the situation in Zhuzhou?" ”

The elder of the Immortal Sect paused for a moment and replied: "I just received the news that Li Cen's army has crossed the Zhushui River and will be able to reach the city of Zhuzhou within three days. ”

Wu Huan took a bowl of tea from the attendant's hand, took a leisurely sip and said: "It's expected, how can a rat like Han Dong beat Li Cen, he didn't immediately open the city and surrender, it can be regarded as embarrassing for him." ”

The elder hesitated, and said with some concern: "Heavenly Master, Li Cen suddenly went south this time, I'm afraid that the barren Zhuzhou Mansion can't satisfy his appetite, will he..."

Wu Huan put down the teacup, showed a kind smile to the believers worshipping in the square, and said without changing his face: "What does Li Cen want to do, this Heavenly Master knows very well, whether the three states in the south are rich or terrain, Qianzhou is the most important, and if he can't take the Qianzhou Mansion, even if the Qin and Zhu Prefectures are all in his hands, they are just two tasteless chicken ribs, not only does it have no meaning, but also has to guard against our Qianzhou Mansion at any time." ”

"Then Li Cen, he..."

Wu Huan chuckled and said, "The realm of the Immortal God is not allowed to be violated by any worldly person. ”

The elder bowed and said, "What the Heavenly Master said is very true, a rebel like Li Cen will eventually anger the gods and be punished by the heavens. ”

Wu Huan nodded: "Some small things, naturally you don't have to bother the gods to take action." ”

"Celestial Master, what do you mean?"

"I have mobilized 30,000 gods to go to the Zhuzhou Mansion, and at the same time sent people to the capital city of Diqing and the Central Plains princes, as long as we can hold Li Cen for a month, then someone will naturally deal with Li Cen for us, as for the nine nerds in Shuzhong... Hmph, let's talk about it when he can live in Wenzhou. ”

The elder hurriedly bowed and said, "Heavenly Master Divine Might! ”

Wu Huan smiled coldly, stood up and said: "However, the battle of the Divine Sect Army this time has cost a lot, and I will notify you that the religious tax will be raised by two layers this month, and whoever does not pay it will be eliminated from the sect and punished as a defiler." ”

"Obey the Celestial Master's orders!"

Wu Huan nodded with satisfaction, stroked the wide robe, stood with his head held high, quietly enjoying the worship of the believers, and the voices of the believers chanting over and over again continued to echo in the square.
