This is a mountain temple that has been abandoned for a long time.

Who founded it and what role it played is no longer available. It is better to say that after thousands of years, the temple still has not collapsed, but can still play a role for passers-by to protect from the wind and rain, and the construction of the temple is really very exquisite.

After all, there has been no Buddha in the Western Continent for more than 5,000 years, so all the dilapidated and collapsed temples in the Western Continent today were built at least 5,000 years ago.

But tonight, this ruined and dilapidated temple doomed him to be uneasy.

The temple is full of fire, and the outside of the temple is pitch black, like the two poles of movement and stillness, yang and yin.

There was a heavy footstep like a drumbeat, sounding from far and near.

Ye Kong narrowed his eyes slightly, staring coldly at the person who was slowly walking towards the broken temple.

The distance of three or four hundred meters is in the dark environment, which is naturally an invisible distance for those in the rivers and lakes. Even if you are a monk, you can only see more than 200 meters with your extreme eyesight, and you may be able to see more than 300 meters unless you use a special technique that can strengthen your vision.

Even if it is Ye Kong, three hundred meters is almost the limit.

The visitor was four hundred meters away, and he could only barely see the other party's figure.

This is a man, his body is full of qi and blood, even when no one is looking, his posture walking carries a sense of pride and majesty.

Judging from this, Ye Kong knew that the other party was a very confident guy. In other words, he is very proud and satisfied with his current identity, strength and many other comprehensive factors.

The monk was about 300 meters away from the temple, but he suddenly stopped and let out a soft sigh: "Huh? ”

The two groups of people in the temple may not know Ye Kong's identity and origin, and they can't feel the hidden momentum on Ye Kong's body. However, for monks, as long as they are close enough, they can tell whether the other party is a monk simply by looking at the qi, which is already an unwritten rule in the monastic world.

That's why this monk sensed Ye Kong's existence from three hundred meters away.

"Is the perception range about 300 meters?" At this distance, Ye Kong was already roughly able to see the other party's situation.

The monk was a young man, about twenty-seven or eight years old, dressed in a martial arts suit with a saber tied around his left waist. Although I don't know the specific knife style, it is not difficult to see the appearance of the scabbard to find that this is a thick back wide knife, generally this style of knife is only suitable for the simplest two movements: chopping and chopping, as for other knife styles can be completely ignored.

The man hesitated for only a moment, then walked briskly towards the temple.

His movements were still not the slightest flustered, and he still had the same calm pace as always, but this time his movements were much faster than the previous relaxed and casual posture, and he also seemed much more cautious.

"Mo Wen, the true disciple of the Xiadaomen, dare to ask which senior is here." Approaching the gate of the vestibule of the broken temple, the monk bowed and asked loudly, but did not enter the door, even though the gate of the vestibule of the broken temple is now only a stone pillar, which looks dilapidated, but he still abides by the most standard monastic etiquette, and his every move shows the demeanor of a disciple.

But after Ye Kong heard the other party report his home, he felt very puzzled.

Knife door?

He didn't have the slightest impression of this sect, and even among the many secret books in his mind, he couldn't find any inheritance books about the Sword Sect at all.

This couldn't help but make Ye Kong curious about this sect.

"It's just a casual practice." Ye Kong didn't embarrass the other party, and said directly, "But Your Excellency's sect ...... I don't seem to have heard of it. ”

"The seniors are not from Nanchi, right?" Ye Kong's answer was like a signal, and the young man finally stepped into the temple after getting Ye Kong's reply, "Our Daomen was only established more than a hundred years ago, but now it is also among the gates. ”

When he said this, the man's face was full of pride and pride.

However, Ye Kong can understand this mood.

The door is already the title of the strongest sect in the land of one side, and the cultivation of its sect master must be the level of the condensation realm. But it doesn't mean that the strength of the sect master is the sect of the condensation realm must be among the top doors, it also involves the comprehensive strength, potential and many other factors of the sect, so if a sect can be ranked among the doors by the Northwest Pavilion, then the disciples in the sect will naturally have a transcendent sense of superiority.

Among them, the seventy-two door-to-door that was listed in the top ranking by the Northwest Pavilion represents the meaning of "the strongest door-to-door", so there are seventy-two door-to-door sayings. On the other hand, it is the statement of the thirty-six upper sects, and then there are the real big sects, but even the Northwest Pavilion does not dare to arrange these big sects in vain, at most, it is a little mention of "the fact that a certain sect already has a big sect".

A sect that has only been established for more than a hundred years can be among the top disciples, which has to say that the strength and heritage of this sect are very strong.

But this still can't explain Ye Kong's doubts: he really hasn't heard of the sect of Daomen.

"I'm really not from Nanchi." Ye Kong shook his head, "I don't know, where are your knife gates." ”

He caught a look of surprise in the other party's eyes just now, obviously he didn't expect that he would be so young - Wen Yi's age is actually not very old, but his real body is actually only the cultivation of entering the Xuan Realm, and Ye Kong only let the strength of Wen Yi's physical body be improved after relying on his body. However, Ye Kong naturally would not say this kind of thing, the existence of ghost cultivation is a taboo existence for the vast majority of sects, forces, and families in the Western Continent.

If it is not necessary, if you want to live a good life in the Western Continent, you naturally need to have a proper physical identity.

"Nanchi Fangcheng." The man's face showed another proud smile.

Nanchi Fangcheng!

A city of one side!

The status of this city in Nanchi is the same as the status of Anfang City in Anfang, it is the place where the real clans and those second-rate gang forces take root. As a sect, the Dao Sect can gain a firm foothold in such a place and snatch food from the mouths of other clans and gang forces with strong backgrounds, which can indeed reflect the strength of this sect from the side.

Judging from Ye Kong's judging criteria, there are probably quite a few Condensing Realm cultivators of this sect.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for it to develop from an obscure and foundationless sect to a completely established foothold in Nanchi Fangcheng in just over a hundred years, with a door that stands side by side with the clan and second-rate forces.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the two groups of people in the temple again, but saw that the other party's gaze at him at this moment was no longer as casual as before, but full of awe.

Ye Kong probably already thought of something.

"New blood?" Ye Kong looked at the Daomen monk standing outside the door, and then asked.

"Yes." The Daomen monk nodded slightly, and did not hide anything, "The foundation of my sect is still shallow, so naturally we need to recruit disciples." These two are the young men I saw with good qualifications when I traveled before, and after examining their mental qualities, I asked them to wait here tonight, ready to return to Nanchi Fang City together. ”

Ye Kong glanced at the teenagers and girls who were deliberately dressed as mature, and his brows furrowed slightly: "If that's the case, why do you still dress up like this?" ”

"I can't hide it, senior, it's only been nearly ten years since my sect became a sect, so secretly, there are naturally many other sects that can't see the vigorous development of our sect, and they will always find ways to hinder it." When Ye Kong asked this question, the monk could only smile helplessly, "There are many disciples with excellent qualifications, all of whom have been snatched away by other disciples. There are even some sects and forces that use their local influence to ......"

Generally speaking, the sect of Shangzong Shangmen can already be regarded as a sect that stands in the middle and high level of the monastic world, and its acceptance of disciples must have very strict requirements, and even investigate the nature of the mind, etc., it is absolutely impossible to say that it accepts disciples indiscriminately.

However, it only took a hundred years for the Daomen to change from an obscure small sect to the current door, which attracted the attention and vigilance of all the door-to-door sects in the entire Nanchi Fang, so it was naturally a common thing to join forces to suppress the development of this sect. Of course, part of the reason for this is also because the qualifications of the knife gate are too shallow, the influence is far from so great, and the reputation has not yet spread, so it is not a strange thing that those qualified children are snatched away.

"That's not the worst thing to do, though." Speaking of this question, the face of this Sword Sect monk also turned angry, "The most excessive thing is that in recent years, all the disciples who are interested in joining my Sword Sect have often had some accidents, and they are rarely able to reach Nanchi Fang City alive. Last year, the head of the sect ordered us to come and escort these disciples back to the sect, but we found that these disciples who had contact with our sect would also encounter disasters, so I had to make this decision to let them dress up in disguise. ”

"It's breaking the roots." Ye Kong couldn't help frowning, "Don't you know who did it?" ”

"There are doubts, but there is no evidence." The monk said helplessly, "The other party is also a door-to-door, and the relationship is complicated, the head of the family is reluctant to start a war lightly, for fear that the foundation that has been established for a hundred years will be ruined." ”

"Very cautious." Ye Kong nodded slightly, "However, aren't you afraid that I'm here to kill someone?" ”

Asked by Ye Kong, the faces of the two groups of people in the temple changed slightly, and everyone felt a little difficult to breathe.

Obviously, Ye Kong didn't make any moves, and even kept a smile on his face, but it was such a simple sentence, but these people in the rivers and lakes felt as if their hearts were being clenched by a hand for no reason, and the whole person was tense, and it became difficult to breathe.

Even this Dao Sect disciple couldn't help but be silent.

After a while, he sighed: "To be honest, I was really scared when I noticed that there were seniors in the temple who were there. But even if I'm afraid, I have to come, because the two people here are waiting here because they trust me and believe in the knife gate, I ...... Can't let them down. ”

Ye Kong's eyebrows raised, and he felt a little moved in his heart.

The man's words were very simple, and his voice was not very impassioned, even a little helpless.

But his tone was very sincere.

"Now, I'm really a little curious about your knife gate. To be able to cultivate a disciple with such a heart as you, although your Dao Sect has only been established for more than a hundred years, its background must not be low. Ye Kong smiled, and then said, "Your name is Mo Wen, right?" I happen to want to go to Nanchi Fangcheng as well, I wonder if I can go with you? ”

"The seniors smiled." Hearing Ye Kong's praise like this, Mo Wen was also a little embarrassed, "The seniors want to walk with me, it's an honor for me." However, I still have to meet up with a few of my fellow students, so I don't know ......."

"If you don't mind, then let's go together." Ye Kong stopped and said very casually.
