Chapter 408: Ritual

The result of Taobao this time was really satisfying, and the small fireball ignited by the Taiyin soil also burned for several hours, and it was not extinguished until more than nine o'clock in the evening, Zhou Yuqing also insisted on it for so long, and when the small fireball was extinguished, he was already tired and hungry, and he almost collapsed to the ground.

For this result, Yu Zhiqiu and Li Taiyi were very satisfied, in fact, the two thought that Zhou Yuqing would not be able to persevere, but they didn't expect that she really persevered until the end of the small fireball.

Although this was just a simple and unexpected test, it also made the two of them see that Zhou Yuqing's potential is quite deep, and she is not much worse than an ordinary genius.

Next, it depends on how these two senior brothers and sisters should be trained to fully tap the potential of this little junior sister.

This is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

The next day, that is, on October 5th, Song Jianqiu and Zhou Yuqing followed Li Taiyi and Yu Zhiqiu into the mountain.

Compared to Longhu Mountain, which is located in the deep mountains and old forests, in the remote valleys, the gate site of the Zhengyi faction is not far from the town, as long as you walk along a wide and smooth mountain road to the mountain, after passing through the nine three gates, you can reach it.

These nine mountain gates have different styles; And starting from the initial low gate that was only one meter and nine meters high, the subsequent mountain gates were taller than the other, and each one was extremely nine.

When you reach the ninth mountain gate at the foot of the mountain, this mountain gate is 99 meters high, and the thick stone pillar stands between the two high mountains, towering into the sky, majestic and majestic, very shocking.

Behind the gate, a slender stone staircase leads straight to the top of the mountain, and at the end is a gate with vermilion lacquer tiles.

The door was open, and on both sides there were disciples of the Zhengyi faction wearing black and white uniforms to welcome them, and behind them were yellow flags fluttering, very solemn.

The guests who participated in the conference passed through the gate one by one, and their eyes suddenly opened up, and an unusually wide square appeared in front of them.

This square is paved with white stone slabs of 3 x 3 square size, which are laid flat on the ground, and at first glance, you can't even see the gaps, as if you are a whole.

And look around, you can see that there is a huge Tai Chi Bagua pattern in the center of the square, although there are no obvious lines, but the two black and white fish are yin and yang, and the nine palace directions of the gossip are also clearly engraved on the stone slab, but it is not marked with different colors, but as long as you look carefully, you can still see the undulating ups and downs of the stone slab.

The square is surrounded by Taoist flags, but only the opposite side has red walls and gray tiles, continuous groups of palaces, flying eaves are anti-Yu, carved railings and jade masonry, along the angle between two high mountains, along the mountain and build, it is the same as Longhu Mountain, but the building of the righteous school is obviously more huge and continuous.

Among the visitors, there were also many young people like Song Jianqiu and Zhou Yuqing, who came to the Zhengyi faction for the first time, and when they saw such a vast square and the buildings built in the sky, they all let out exclamations, and their surprises were overflowing.

The disciples of the Zhengyi faction who were around him welcomed him, and when they heard this, their faces suddenly showed pride, and their bodies stood even straighter.

"Hahaha! Welcome all Taoist friends, all masters to come to me together! It's so splendid! ”

On the square, there was already a group of people who had been waiting for a long time, and the one who took the lead in speaking was the current head of the Zhengyi faction, Yuzhen Daoist. He has no beard on his face, wears a pure scarf on his head, holds a dust whisk in one hand, and smiles all over his face, but he looks very young.

Behind the Jade True Daoist, there are three people, namely the famous Jade Light Three Dao in the world, namely Zhang Changchang, a Sancao Daoist, Bai Hengchong, a True Feather Daoist, and Liu Hongmei, a Red Leaf Daoist.

These three people, Song Jianqiu knows them all, and Zhang Changchang, a person from Sancao Dao, and Liu Hongmei, a person from Hongye Dao, have a lot of faces, especially the latter, after repelling the Qiandao family in Lingyan Temple in Asan City, he also visited her for a while, and learned a lot of lightning control methods, which can be regarded as a half-master.

And Bai Hengchong, the true feather Taoist, is even more before the red leaf Daoist Liu Hongmei. Although the two have only met once, but that meeting was not a good thing, but a conflict, if it wasn't for Yu Zhiqiu to come forward to resolve it, I'm afraid Song Jianqiu wouldn't be able to stand here.

The three of them are all keen people, when they noticed the gaze, they all looked over, and after seeing Song Jianqiu, the expressions of the three of them were also different, Zhang Changchang winked at her naughtily, Liu Hongmei closed his head with a smile, and Bai Hengchong was like electricity, his face was cold, and he seemed to deliberately look at Song Jianqiu's eyes, and then frowned slightly, his expression was much richer than that of the other two.

Although there are invitations to these three clean water and dust cleaning conferences, in fact, the people who receive the invitations are just some high-powered sect heads and family patriarchs and the like, this is just to show respect, even if there is no invitation, you can follow to participate in this conference.

However, according to the results that Song Jianqiu learned from Yu Zhiqiu, these three pure water and dust cleaning conferences have gradually become some kind of symbolic ritual, and they are no longer so important.

But this time it is different, the people in the world are the most sensitive to the changes in the world, especially those who want to wander around and explore in the deep mountains and old forests, they are even more deeply aware of it, and they are faintly aware that this world seems to be undergoing some unusual changes.

As a positive with the same root and origin as Longhu Mountain, although it may not be as powerful as Longhu Mountain in terms of mathematics, but this is only compared with Longhu Mountain, compared with other sects, stargazing derivation is still very powerful, and naturally discovered the changes in the world early, so this conference is very solemn, and the patriarchs of various sects and families have also attended, hoping to form a consensus and study the way to deal with it.

In particular, the attack on Asan City has already spread throughout the world, compared to ordinary people who are about to forget, but the people in the world have been thinking about this matter, not only the Lingyan Temple of Lingyan Temple has changed, but also the performance of the government is also very ambiguous, and recently there is more news that it seems to allow Taoist Buddhism to enter the world and inherit the meaning.

Many people are skeptical of this news, and they rushed to the meeting at this time, in fact, most of them are also to solve the confusion and find a solution, so the number of people who came to participate in the conference this time is particularly large, which can be said to be second only to the number of people who took root here at the beginning and held the three clean water and dust cleaning conference for the first time.

For such a grand scene, the head of Zhengyi is naturally very happy, after all, the more people come, the more it shows that Zhengyi's status in the minds of people in the world is heavier, and what problems are encountered, they all come to the door for help, which also proves the prestige of Zhengyi in the world, perhaps, Zhengyi can also reproduce the glory in his own hands?

Whether the head of Zhengyi, Yuzhen Dao, will think so, no one knows.

After greeting for a while, Yuzhen Daoist warmly invited the guests to go inside.

A group of Zhengyi disciples stood on both sides, saying goodbye, Yuzhen Daoist and a few patriarchs gathered together to talk, Liu Hongmei also chatted with a few Buddhist masters, and Zhang Changchang, who had a casual personality, had already entered the crowd, and the people he was friends with were idle, but Bai Hengchong, with a cold face, walked in front of the crowd, looking very lonely.

But this is also normal, compared to the reputation of senior brother Zhang Changchang and junior sister Liu Hongmei, Bai Hengchong has always been a person who gives people a smile and is very strict, even if he is a disciple of other sects, he is very afraid of making mistakes when he encounters him, because once he makes a mistake, the other party is ruthless, and he will punish him when he says punishment.

In addition, his cultivation is strong, his realm is profound, few people in the world are his hands, and behind him is such a big faction, many people love and hate him, and there are very few people who can really make friends and chat with him, among them, there is exactly Li Taiyi!

Perhaps seeing that Bai Hengchong's lonely appearance was too pitiful, Li Taiyi took the initiative to run up to talk after chatting with Yuzhen Daoist for a while.

This move made Song Jianqiu feel a little unbelievable, and asked Yu Zhiqiu in a low voice, saying: "Isn't Master Li afraid that Senior Bai will be angry in the past?" ”

Although she has a conflict with Bai Hengchong, this grievance, in fact, Bai Hengchong, as a senior, will definitely not take it to heart. In this regard, Bai Hengchong is still worthy of her calling a senior.

"What are you angry about?" Yu Zhiqiu smiled: "Hasn't he been angry all the time? Indeed, Bai Hengchong's expression looked like he was angry all the time.

However, this was just a joke, and after he finished speaking, he continued: "The reason why Senior Bai is so cold-eyed is actually not his own problem, but the problem of his cultivation of the Heart Sutra. He practiced the supreme treasure of Zhengyi; The Heart Sutra of No Desire, it is said that the more you practice, the colder it gets, the colder it is, the more powerful it is, and when it reaches the highest level, it will be able to reach the point of being too forgetful, plus his lightning control technique, it will be invincible in the world! ”

"So powerful?!" Song Jianqiu was a little unconvinced.

"Isn't it amazing, haven't you experienced it?" Yu Zhiqiu said meaningfully: "If you want to say who is the strongest in the world today, the true feather Dao person is the first one who deserves it!" In this world, there is really no one who is his opponent! If you have the chance, you can ask him for advice! ”

He knew that Song Jianqiu had also comprehended the meaning of the true thunder, but in addition to lamenting her demonic talent, he could only sigh that her physique limited her choice, otherwise, the Taoist would have a stunning genius.

After entering the gate, a vacant space appeared in front of him again, and there was already a neat phalanx in the clearing, and each of the disciples was wearing a much more gorgeous robe than usual, with wide sleeves and long swings, a pair of ancients' dress, with the surrounding banners and banners, and the antique architectural palace, which had the feeling of passing through time and space.

Based on the experience of attending this conference in the past, many people know that this is a memorial ceremony before the start of the conference.

As the head of the Yuzhen Dao, he did not lead the ceremony, but laughed with a group of patriarchs and came to the wide platform on the side of the ground to watch the ceremony.

The high platform is not very spacious, and it looks like it is temporarily built of wood, but it is enough to stand for more than ten people, and those who can go up to this high platform are the patriarchs of each family, and as for the others, they can only stand in the corridor aisle behind the high platform.

Whether it's the first time to see it, or someone who has seen it many times, in this case, they are also quiet to show respect.

As the bells and drums rang, the leader standing in front of the entire phalanx shouted as if he were singing: "Hey~~~~~~~! ”

Then, he unfolded a scroll and swayed it to the right and followed the words of the sacrifice.

At this time, the vocal music also sounded, and it looked like a big opera.

The sacrificial words are very long, and the speed of recitation is not fast, it can even be said to be a little slow, it took more than ten minutes to finish reading, and the vocal music also stopped, and then the leader began to read a piece of ancestral teaching, read a sentence, and the phalanx behind him also recited a sentence, and the sound was very huge.

After the ancestral precept was recited, the whole ceremony was over, and the phalanx began to leave.

Originally, according to previous experience, this ceremony was over, and then it was time to invite all the patriarchs to the meeting, but at this time, the Yuzhen Daoist stopped everyone from scattering with a smile, and said with a smile: "It's rare for fellow Daoists to come here, I have specially prepared a program for you!" Just take advantage of a period of free time, everyone please follow me to the high place, it is more convenient to watch! ”

Since the Yuzhen Daoist said so, the guest followed the host, and everyone naturally followed the Yuzhen Daoist along the stairs to a platform on the third floor, and the rest of the people and others naturally found their own position.

A moment later, I saw a group of disciples wearing the same uniform, converging from the vast Bagua Square outside, and formed a large formation very skillfully.

Each of them held a peachwood sword in their hands and stood still.

Seeing this scene, Song Jianqiu couldn't help but ask, "What is this for?" ”

"I guess, it's going to rehearse the Heavenly Thunder Array for us to see!" Yu Zhiqiu narrowed his eyes and made a guess.

In fact, when these people put up this formation, many people had already guessed the so-called program, which was estimated to be a famous heavenly thunder array.

Zhou Yuqing didn't know what the Heavenly Thunder Array was, and looked out curiously.

At this moment, after the formation below was still for a moment, it suddenly began to swim, and groups of people began to push the formation to run according to a specific footwork and direction.

As they ran, they danced with the swords in their hands.

Suddenly, one of them shouted, "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder! ……”

"Nine Heavens Divine Thunder! ……”

One person speaks, and the people around him follow in unison. And with this beginning, everyone understands that this is the Heavenly Thunder Fa that has created a prestige!

“…… Brilliant Tianwei! ……”

“…… Heaven and earth are righteous! ……”

“…… Draw me to the sword! ……”

Hearing this, Song Jianqiu sighed lightly.

She had heard the complete Dao mantra of the Heavenly Thunder Righteous Law of Zhengyi, but now here, it has changed.

Although she didn't ask, Yu Zhiqiu knew her doubts, and said with a smile: "The Heavenly Thunder Fa you listened to, it was used by one person, and now the fifty-nine people are using it, it is called the Heavenly Thunder Array, so it will naturally be a little different!" ”

Song Jianqiu nodded, understanding that she was stupid.

At the beginning, when Liu Hongmei released the Heavenly Thunder Orthodoxy in Lingyan Temple, the speed was very fast, but now this Heavenly Thunder Array is obviously much slower, the Dao is not only long, but a group of people must also cooperate with footwork and swordsmanship, as long as there is a slight omission in it, it will lead to failure.

However, at such a slow speed, its power is also undoubted, before it is launched, it causes a vision of heaven and earth, dark clouds in the sky surge, thunder rolling, lightning is hidden, there seems to be a long dragon rolling in the lead clouds, a strong pressure pressed down, making people's scalp numb, people with a slightly lower realm, have exclaimed.

The starting point collection has finally exceeded 5,000! Congratulations! Congratulations!!
