Chapter Forty-Eight: The Slaughter of the Town
As far as he knew, in the Donghua Dynasty, there were six sects with a greater reputation. In addition to the Jinghong faction, they are, Wuji Valley, Annihilation Temple, Pure Yang Temple, Linglong Island and Taibai Palace.
Secondly, there are two major alliances, namely the Nanshan Immortal League and the North Tibetan Daoist Alliance, these two alliances were originally composed of some small sects, and later invited several powerful cultivators to sit in the town, and they have the strength to compete with the six major sects.
In addition, there are dozens of small sects that are not in the stream, but in fact, some of them don't even have mountain gates, so they can't be regarded as sects at all. In this era of cultivating immortals, relying on a mouthful of kung fu and the method of the axe to deceive the eyes of the class, the Donghua Dynasty has become a miasma.
It is worth mentioning that the Donghua Dynasty's handling of these Shenzhu sects was very timely, when the wind of cultivating immortals grew, when the emperor issued a summoning order to set up a name called "Jian Xian Pavilion", which means to replace the imperial court and supervise the immortal sects in the world, all the immortal sects must be registered, even the six major sects are no exception.
In this regard, the six major sects did not say anything, and casually sent a few disciples to give the emperor face. After the investigation and punishment of the Prison Immortal Pavilion, the Shenzhu Sect has quieted down a bit, but it is easy to treat the symptoms, but it is difficult to cure the root cause, and it is difficult to completely cut off those who pretend to be foolish people in private.
On the second day, Liang Wenyuan and several other disciples of the Spirit Ruin Realm were summoned by the two peak masters. Originally, they also had the opportunity to enter the secret realm to find an opportunity, but after the escape of the black fog last time, they didn't dare to open the secret realm easily, but they were rewarded with some elixir artifacts and let them come back.
In the evening, Gong Bochang called the five disciples to his side, formally told them about the upcoming training down the mountain, and told Liang Wenyuan: "Wen Yuan, you are the senior brother, you must protect the junior brother and sister outside, if they have any damage, after they come back, you are the only one who asks." ”
Liang Wenyuan said solemnly: "The disciple will do his best to protect the junior brother and sister. ”
Gong Bochang bowed his forehead and said to everyone: "You have no experience in training, you don't know the danger under the mountain, you must listen to the words of the senior brother after you go out, you must not act without authorization, and you must not hurt mortals. ”
Although a few people agreed, they looked excited when they looked at Yan Shifeng and Xiao Wen, I am afraid that they belong to the kind of left ear listening to the right ear.
"This time, in addition to you, there are also the same doors of Tianfeng and Xuanfeng, when you go out, you must abandon your previous suspicions, and help each other in times of crisis. ”
Hearing this, everyone was not very happy, if you want to talk about Tianfeng, they are naturally happy. As for Xuanfeng, it is only by suffering a little that he can kill their arrogance.
Subsequently, Gong Bochang waved his sleeves and let a few people leave to start the journey of training.
Under the leadership of the senior brother, everyone bowed to Gong Bochang a few times and turned to leave.
Taking them away, Gong Bochang muttered, "I hope you can all return safely." ”
On the way down the peak, Yan Shifeng and Xiao Wen were very excited, chattering non-stop along the way. Yan Shifeng said that he was originally a child of a very famous family in Yancheng, and this time he went out, he could go to Yanzhou to let him fulfill the friendship of the landlord. In this regard, Xiao Wen did not show weakness, his family also has a lot of power in a city, and he wants to take everyone to their house as guests.
The mention of the word home naturally also caused Gu Xuan's homesickness. The three of them were children who had never been far away, and this time they had been out for nearly a year, and they didn't feel anything in the Immortal Cultivation Sect, but in the mortal world, many things could happen in a year.
It's a pity that before they finished their dream of going home, they were crushed by Liang Wenyuan's own hands: "Immortal cultivators, after leaving home, they won't return home easily." Now we are going to experience, not to let you return to your hometown to visit your relatives, and these words will not be mentioned again in the future. ”
"Why do you have no home, senior brother?" Yan Shifeng shouted, he really couldn't understand, they all came out, what was the reason why they weren't allowed to go home?
Liang Wenyuan said calmly: "When you step into the cultivation of immortals, you will no longer have anything to do with mortals, this is a tacit rule in the cultivation of immortals. When you joined the Shocking Flood Sect, the faction promised to protect your family, so that they would no longer be concerned by mortal family affection, and they would eventually enter reincarnation within a hundred years, but you are different. ”
Yan Shifeng was not convinced, and defended: "In the Immortal Cultivation Sect, we also have to pay attention to respecting teachers, why do we want to abandon our biological parents, brothers and sisters? ”
Liang Wenyuan looked at him and said lightly: "Then have you ever thought about what you should do if someone wants to coerce you with their lives? ”
At this moment, Yan Shifeng choked and was irrefutable. Walking in the realm of cultivating immortals, who doesn't have a few enemies? If they are ruthless to their families, ordinary monks will not waste that kind of effort, but if they are affectionate, it is one of their biggest death holes.
The monk can torture mortals to death by raising his hand, and then he will harm them.
Gu Xuan and Xiao Wen glanced at each other, Xia Yi said these words to them when he left, but what he said at that time did not concern his family. Now that I think about it, it's the same thing.
Gu Xuan's expression couldn't help but darken, could it be that in a short period of time, it was impossible to go back?
"Don't think about it, we have to hurry up, and before dark, we have to rush to Lingyun Town. The second senior sister Gong Yuqing spoke, and she was slightly dissatisfied with the grinding and chirping of a few people.
Out of the peak, the three people who reached the Spirit Ruins Realm could use the Imperial Sky Runic Seal refined by Gong Bochang himself, and stick it on the Spirit Sword to fly. If you rely on your own strength alone, you need to reach the Ning Dan Realm. If you want to rely on your own qi and step on the void like Gong Bochang, you must have the cultivation of the Tibetan God Realm.
Liang Wenyuan summoned his spirit sword, which was a long sword similar to Gong Bochang, and the sky sigil fell on it, like a rune carved on it. This sword is called Changjun, and it is usually placed in his spiritual mansion. The spiritual mansion that will be born after the monk opens up the spiritual ruins can accommodate the artifacts after the refining of his own spiritual energy.
Liang Wenyuan took Gu Xuan, Yan Shifeng took Xiao Wen, a group of five people, swept in the air, and flew towards the nearest Lingyun Town.
Lingyun Town, although it was close to the Jinghong Sect, they didn't know that there was an Immortal Sect located here. Ordinary mortals only know that occasionally they will meet one or two immortal cultivators here, which also makes this place famous. Some people who have no way to seek immortals will often guard here, looking forward to meeting immortal cultivators and worshipping in the immortal gate.
Gu Xuan and the others flew for half a day, and when they were still dozens of miles away from Lingyun Town, they fell on the clouds and walked forward. If it is known that they are immortal cultivators, it will inevitably cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Stepping into the range of Lingyun Town, Gu Xuan and the others cheered up, they hadn't eaten the food of the mortal world for a long time, and they really missed it very much. Yan Shifeng and Xiao Wen have already discussed that they should have a few drinks.
The closer they got to the town, the more strange they noticed, not that there was a constant stream of people coming and going. But now, they still haven't seen a single living person.
The town was just ahead, and there was silence inside, without the noise of the imagination, which made a few people cautious.
Yan Shifeng looked at the sky and muttered, "This blue sky and white day, shouldn't they all sleep so early." ”
Liang Wenyuan's hand moved, and the Changjun Sword appeared in his hand, and he said softly: "You wait here, I'll go check it out." ”
Without waiting for a few people to answer, Liang Wenyuan had already raised his feet and left, and under the gaze of several people, he entered Lingyun Town.
"Senior brother won't be in danger, right?" Xiao Wen said in a low voice, and was glared at by Gong Yuqing.
After a while, Liang Wenyuan's figure reappeared, and he walked over with a solemn expression. Without waiting for him to speak, Yan Shifeng said, "How is it Senior Brother?
"They're all dead. The senior brother spit out three words, which made everyone's faces change.
"Who did it?" Yan Shifeng said stupidly.
Liang Wenyuan raised his eyes and glanced at him, which made him feel embarrassed.
Gong Yuqing frowned slightly: "This is still at the feet of the Shocking Flood Sect, such a thing happened, who is so bold?"
Liang Wenyuan groaned: "No matter who it is, it is a provocation to the Jinghong faction, and this matter needs to be reported to the master." As soon as he raised his hand, he drew a qi talisman to tell what was going on here, and with a wave of his hand, the qi talisman turned into a streamer, hidden in the air, and flew in the direction of the Thrilling Flood Sect.
"It's not good to stay here, I guess we'd better leave first?" Xiao Wen suggested, his cautious nature making him feel safer to leave at this time.
Liang Wenyuan denied this approach, and he planned to stay and see if he could find clues.
Xiao Wen shook his head again and said, "Senior brother, no, if the enemy is outnumbered, we will be in danger if we make a move!"
Liang Wenyuan felt that it made sense, and said to Gong Yuqing: "You take them to leave first, and then I will go to meet you after I find out the situation." ”
I never thought that Gong Yuqing refused: "If you don't go, I won't leave." ”
"Huh?" Gu Xuan and the others raised their eyes and looked at the two of them, why did they feel that something was not right.
Gong Yuqing also seemed to feel that she was speechless, and hurriedly explained: "We are together, even if we encounter danger, we can take care of it." ”
Yan Shifeng showed a strange look and said in a tone of disbelief: "Oh, senior sister, is it really just like this?"
Gong Yuqing turned her gaze to him and looked at him for a while. Yan Shifeng immediately withered, and Yizheng echoed his words: "I think what the second senior sister said is reasonable! ”
Liang Wenyuan was quite big-hearted, and he didn't think too much about the expressions and conversations of several people, but stared at the direction of Lingyun Town and frowned: "If I encounter danger, what is the use of you staying?"
Gu Xuan also raised his eyes, and faintly, there was some hazy mist above that Lingyun Town, which was not very real.
