The flying boat soon left the territory of Wuzhou and headed all the way to Kunlun.

Compared with going to Kunlun by land, the flying boat saves time and effort, and after leaving Wuzhou, it goes north along the junction of Huzhou and Xiaozhou, and then passes through Shuzhou, and enters the territory of Yongzhou, which is vast and sparsely populated.

According to the division of Daomen, Shuzhou belongs to Shuzhou Province, and Yongzhou belongs to Kunlun Province.

The difference between the two is that the Shuzhou Daofu is a veritable Quanzhen Daofu, and the Quanzhen Dao disciples account for the vast majority, while the Kunlun Daofu is a neutral Daofu, and the proportion of the three Dao disciples is about the same.

This also involves the various rules of the Daomen regarding the Great Palm Sect.

The Great Palm Sect is elected by thirty-six Counselors and the number of Great True Persons, usually one of the three major sects, although the Daomen does not advocate cronyism, but no one will be nepotistic, and the Great Palm Sect wants to push the executive order, it is inevitable to reuse its own henchmen, resulting in a faction of the Great Palm Sect to benefit greatly, and the power has expanded rapidly, squeezing the other two major factions, which is also one of the reasons why the three realms are bound to win the position of the Great Palm Sect.

Xuansheng is well aware of the drawbacks in this, but because of Buddhism, he has been powerless to change, so he stripped away part of the power of the Great Palm Sect in the later period, gave it to Jin Que, and repeatedly raised the Golden Que, making Jin Que the highest authority of the Daomen, not only can the Great Palm Sect be promoted, but also after the big meeting, as long as more than ninety percent of the Golden Que members agree, they can even forcibly depose the Great Palm Sect.

In addition, Xuansheng also set the rules, the three deputy masters of the Great True Sect assisted the Great Palm Sect, and the four of them joined hands to take charge of the Dao Gate, if there was a difference of opinion between the four people, unless the three Great Masters of the Great True Person all objected, the Great Palm Sect would be the main one. In other words, as long as the three deputy head masters are in agreement, they can veto the orders of the Great Masters, and the Great Masters must have the support of one of the deputy heads of the Great Masters in order to completely implement their will.

However, considering that the Great Palm Sect was almost inevitably supported by the deputy head of the sect from which he was born, Xuan Sheng added another article after the suppression of Buddhism, the major orders of the Great Palm Sect must go through the Golden Que, and as long as the number of opponents of the Golden Que exceeds twenty-four, then the order of the Great Palm Sect can be vetoed.

The Xuan Sheng limited some of the power of the Great Palm Sect to prevent a certain faction from upsetting the internal balance of the Dao Sect because of the Great Palm Sect. Except for the reign of Xuan Sheng, after the other five generations of the Great Palm Sect ascended to the throne, the other two major factions would quickly form an alliance and balance the Great Palm Sect through numbers.

Of course, if it were not for the fundamental interests involved, the other two factions would not oppose for the sake of opposition, and more often they chose to obey the orders of the Great Sect. The point is that the interests of the two factions are not completely identical, and most of the time they can only agree on vetoes, but they cannot unanimously put forward their own decrees, so they are in a defensive position.

In addition, although the Great Palm Sect cannot depose the identity of the Counselor Zhenren, and must go through the Golden Que to depose the Counselor Zhizhen or the Pingzhang Great Truth, but the right to appoint and remove the personnel of the Nine Halls and the local Taoist government is still in the hands of the Great Palm Sect, and there is no need to go through the Golden Que.

Take Donghua Zhenren as an example, now he is the head of Ziwei Hall, with this identity, whether it is a disciple of Zhengyi or a disciple of Taiping Dao, he must look at Donghua Zhenren's face in the evaluation and promotion, because the name is correct and the word is good. But if Donghua Zhenren loses the identity of Ziwei Hall Leader Zhenren, then even if he still knows the real person, it can only affect the disciples of the Quanzhen Dao, and the other two disciples will not care about Donghua Zhenren's orders, because if the name is not right, it will not be good.

To sum up, the relationship between the Great Commander and the Golden Que is somewhat similar to the relationship between the cabinet and the celebrant in the previous dynasty, the cabinet has the power to draft votes, can propose various government decrees, and the celebrant has the power to approve the red and has the power to veto. Both have only partial power given by the emperor, and only when both sides work together is it equivalent to complete imperial power.

In this way, there are pros and cons, the advantage is to put an end to the situation that the Daomen is in crisis due to the Great Palm Sect's insistence, and the disadvantage is that it also makes the several Great Palm Sects of later generations lack sufficient power, plus the prestige of the Great Palm Sect in later generations is not as good as that of Xuan Sheng, and it is impossible to integrate the three realms at all.

In fact, Xuan Sheng's intention is also obvious, he does not want a certain great master of the later generations to use violent means to destroy the other two Dao, pay the price of the internal strife of the Daomen to integrate the three Dao, which is more than worth the loss, but hopes to eliminate the contradictions and factions of the three Dao by relatively mild means, after all, the three Dao belong to the same Daomen, have the same root and origin, and jointly worship a Dao ancestor, not as clear as the dispute between Confucianism and Taoism or the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism. Even if you really want to use force, it is best to limit it to some high-level people, and not to affect the entire Dao Gate.

To put it simply, Xuan Sheng thought that even if he had to use some drastic measures, it would be better to use a "palace coup" and a small number of people to shed blood, rather than a "battle of martyrdom" that affected the entire world, and swept the entire Daomen into it.

However, there is no eternal law in the world, any rules and legal system have timeliness, and now two hundred years have passed since the Xuansheng era, and the situation of the Daomen is also very different from the situation of the Daomen at the time of the Xuansheng.

Xuan Sheng didn't expect that after the six generations of the Great Palm Sect, there would be a vacant situation in the position of the Great Palm Sect, in a sense, the three realms restrict the Great Palm Sect, and the Great Palm Sect is also restricting the three realms, and the three deputy masters of the Great Palm Sect form a balance with the Great Palm Sect, and most of the Great Palm Sects will not favor the faction they came from without a bottom line, but are in a more transcendent position, balanced in the middle.

After the absence of the Great Commander, no one could control the three Deputy Masters of the Great True Sect, and immediately had a three-legged posture. And Taiping Dao even started the idea of bringing the imperial court as an Austrian aid, which made the situation in Daomen extremely complicated, and the clouds of civil strife had converged in the sky above Yuxu Peak.

In this case, there was also a split within the Kunlun Daomen, and the house master, the chief deputy house master, and the second deputy house master were also three-legged, each with subordinates and backstage support. Make the Kunlun Daofu shrink to Yujing again and again, to prevent major changes in Yujing, or once Yujing changes, the power of Kunlun Daofu can enter Yujing as soon as possible, as for who Kunlun Daofu can use in the absence of the Great Sect, it depends on the means of the three deputy Masters of the Great True People.

Therefore, it is bounded by the Kunlun Pass, and the five thousand miles of Kunlun within the Kunlun Pass are heavily guarded. Outside the Kunlun Pass, including Yongzhou, because the Kunlun Provincial Government has transferred most of its manpower, it can no longer be said that the guards are sparse, and even some blank areas have been generated. Therefore, it is not unreasonable for the Lingshan Witch Sect to choose to descend in the Relic Mountain City.

The flying boat sailed across the border of Shuzhou and entered the territory of Yongzhou, that is, the periphery of Kunlun Daofu.

The old man walked out of his room unhurriedly, and without seeing how he moved, he broke the forbidden formation, and came to the deck outside, standing in the whistling wind, his clothes hunting, but his body remained unmoved.

Many people saw this scene and couldn't help but be amazed.

The old man came to the railing, his hands were as dry as tree roots, he grabbed the railing with one hand, patted the railing with the other, and muttered: "According to the trend of mountains and rivers and the general trend of the hidden dragon veins, the meandering terrain of the dragon veins is regarded as the feng shui leyline, from west to east, divided into three potentials, called the three dragons, the south of the river is the south dragon, between the big river and the long river is the middle dragon, and the north of the long river is the north dragon." The three major dragon veins in the world all originated in Kunlun. Therefore, Kunlun is not only the holy land of Taoism, but also the ancestor of all mountains. Now it is not far from Kunlun, which can be described as a treasure of feng shui. ”

The old man was already weak, and his voice was extremely low, and when he was blown by the wind, it completely dissipated, and he couldn't really hear it even when he stood beside the old man. It even makes people wonder if the old man himself can hear what he is saying.

However, Zhang Yuelu had already sensed that something was wrong, and he couldn't care less, so he also rushed out of the ship sheltered by the formation and came to the deck outside.

Although the wind was violent, Zhang Yuelu had enough strength, and her feet seemed to take root on the ground, not moving.

The old man glanced at Zhang Yuelu and said hesitantly, "Master Zhang." ”

Zhang Yuelu's face changed slightly: "Do you recognize me?" ”

The old man said leisurely: "It's for you, take the credit of our Lingshan Witch Sect's head in exchange, it's hot." ”

Zhang Yuelu didn't have any nonsense, his body swept away, and attacked the old man.

The old Taoist seemed to have taken precautions, and as soon as he raised his hand, a golden light flashed, forcing Zhang Yuelu to stop.

The golden light almost brushed Zhang Yuelu, leaving a half-foot-deep trail on the deck of the flying boat comparable to King Kong.

"Gu Immortal Divine Power!" Zhang Yuelu was taken aback, and figured out everything in an instant, his uneasiness did not come from his mother or the Daomen, but from the secret association!

The type of divine power that can be judged by the color of the divine power, such as the Wuluo divine power of the last Yulan Temple, symbolizes the blood sacrifice, which is the color of blood red, and it must be seen in blood and dead, otherwise it will not die, but it will not hurt the dead in the slightest.

And this kind of golden divine power is like true qi, indestructible, very domineering, and it is also the most common divine power.

The old man rolled up his sleeves, revealing his wrist, which was as thin as a dead wood, and wore a string of flowing beads on it.

This style of flowing beads, Zhang Yuelu has also seen, it is the common style of Lingshan Witch Sect, a total of twelve flowing beads, each flowing bead is engraved with a different image of Wu Luo, or like ordinary people, or like a dragon and snake, or three heads and six arms, or two heads and four arms, or eyebrows and eyes, or ribs and wings.

This kind of flowing bead is not a spiritual object, a treasure, or a half-immortal object, but a disposable item similar to "dragon eye" and "phoenix eye", and after the divine power in it is used up, it becomes a waste.

Its power is closely related to the material, ordinary members of the Lingshan Witch Sect can only use wood, the higher-level leaders are bone, and the elites such as Lin Zhenyuan are ordinary jasper.

The string of flowing beads on the wrist of the old Taoist is a rather rare topaz material.
