Chapter 52: Night Rain
As the old saying goes: "The sky is not enough for the northwest, and the earth is not enough for the southeast." "West Kunlun Mountain is the ancestor of ten thousand mountains, supporting the divine pillar of the blue sky, occupying the aura of the Three Realms, the dojo of the ancient sect leader Yuan Shi Tianzun is in Kunlun Mountain, and the current Kunlun Mountain has been occupied by the Kunlun Sword Sect for more than 1,000 years. For more than a thousand years, the Kunlun Sword Sect has had outstanding figures from generation to generation, and has always been at the head of the major sword sects.
The current head of Kunlun Mountain, Tianhong Zhenren, has already survived two small tribulations, a great master in the early stage of refining gods, and is the current leader of the six factions.
On this day, Tianhong Zhenren announced the convening of the Kunlun Sword Sect Conference, Yunlin hit the immortal drum, Yunyuan rang the bell of the Dao, all the disciples entered the hall according to the class, countless strange flowers and plants in front of the hall, and the hall said endless Ruiqi, after the disciples entered the position, Tianhong Zhenren said slowly:" Today is less than three months away from the Six Factions Kendo Conference, these Six Factions Kendo Conference is held once every ten years, aiming to select the leader of the Six Factions Kendo Alliance, which is the top priority of my Sword Sect, especially the leader of this alliance involves the six factions working together to fight against the Demon Dao, which is related to the peace of the world, so my Kunlun faction must not underestimate this matter. ”
The little disciple Yunyuan stood up and said loudly: "Master, since the appearance of the alliance leader of the six factions three hundred years ago, except for one time since it was seized by the Emei faction Changmei Zhenren, the other more than 20 times are my Kunlun power to override the crowd and dominate the leader, this time the position of the alliance leader, according to the disciple's opinion, it should not be an exception." ”
When Yun Yuan said this, the other disciples under the sect also nodded yes.
Tianhong Zhenren said: "Yunlin, seeing that you bow your head and are silent, is there something that can't be done?"
After the eldest disciple Yun Ying mysteriously disappeared in the Blood Cloak Hall, the second disciple Yun Lin was already the head of the disciples. Yun Lin listened to Shizun's question, hurriedly stood up, and said: "Master, the disciple has nothing to worry about, but he suddenly remembered something and felt that something was wrong, so he was silent. ”
Tianhong Zhenren said: "What's wrong, you can tell me." ”
Yun Lin said again: "Half a month ago, the disciple and the Qingcheng faction disciple Ling Yun met by chance in Shudi, and he told the disciple that on the night of the first day of last month, Ling Yun and the four senior brothers were ambushed by the people of the demon realm on the top of Bishan Mountain in Ba County, and his junior brother Ling Zhong was killed by a demon who suddenly appeared, but fortunately, someone helped at that time, so that the whole army was saved from annihilation. The disciple thought about it, although the people of the demon world have been haunting in recent years, they are all in remote places, but this time they are blatantly ambushing the disciples of the Qingcheng faction, and they are actually in the land of Shu Mountain. The disciple thought about it and felt that the people from the Demon Realm were not good this time, but he couldn't think of a reason, so he was puzzled. ”
Tianhong Zhenren nodded and said: "Yes, every time there is a sword conference, there will always be a blade of the demon world against my sword faction, but I have never dared to be so rampant, dare to go to the hinterland of Shu Mountain to ambush and kill the disciples of Qingcheng, it seems that the people of the demon world will have a big move this time." ”
Yun Lin asked, "May I ask Master, how should we deal with the Demon Realm?"
Tianhong Zhenren twisted his beard and said: "Fighting against the Demon Realm is the most important thing for all sects and factions of my Sword Sect to fight for the alliance leader. We are the disciples of the Yuan Shi Tianzun Sect, and we should bear the brunt of the brunt of the great task of uniting the factions and resisting the demon world. ”
All the disciples nodded and said, "That's exactly how it should be." ”
Tianhong Zhenren said: "Today's plan, on the one hand, our disciples must strengthen their vigilance and beware of the tricks of the Demon Realm, and on the other hand, they must also take the initiative to find out how to further find out the movements of the Demon Realm and its overall plan, and smash the Demon Realm conspiracy in one fell swoop. ”
All the disciples agreed in unison. Tianhong Zhenren nodded and ordered the disciples to leave the hall.
After the disciples left the hall, Tianhong Zhenren got off the throne, went out from the back door, slowly walked out of the Yuxu Palace, and went straight to the back mountain of Kunlun, which is the forbidden place of Kunlun Mountain, and only the head of the house is allowed to enter and exit.
Although Tianhong Zhenren was unhurried, under the robe, his sleeves trembled slightly, obviously he was in a hurry.
"He should cut the candles in the west window, but when it rains at night in Bashan. "The night rain in Bashan, mysterious and somewhat romantic, is the situation that countless literati and artists yearn for. But in the late autumn rain, there is more of a layer of gloomy.
The night was nearly three o'clock, the rain was falling heavily, and the thousands of miles of mountains in Shudi were pitch black, all immersed in the torrential rain, indescribably cold.
Just between the steep cliffs that stretch for thousands of miles, there is a lamp like a bean, like a flat boat in the raging waves, and people with slightly poor eyesight can't see it at all dozens of feet away.
A middle-aged Taoist in a Taoist robe said to a man in black armor, "The messenger summoned me here late at night, I don't know what is the matter?"
The man in black armor asked sharply, "You are not doing your job well, and His Holiness is furious, which is why this envoy came to ask for the guilt." But you're still pretending to be asking here knowingly. ”
The middle-aged Taoist hurriedly said: "The envoy Hugh wants to be angry, that day is indeed entangled in urgent matters, so he missed the opportunity and delayed the big event, and I hope that the envoy will be clear." His voice trembled slightly, obviously scared in his heart.
The black-armored man snorted coldly before he said, "Well, for the sake of your loyalty, I will intercede with His Holiness as appropriate, hoping that His Holiness can relieve you of your guilt." ”
The middle-aged Taoist was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed down and thanked: "Thank you to the envoy, I am grateful." ”
The black-armored man nodded and said, "The envoy asked you to come here today because I have something important to discuss. ”
The middle-aged Taoist hurriedly said: "The envoy, please command, I will do my best to do it in the next place." ”
"Good. I hope you will be able to make meritorious contributions this time. The black-armored man said: "The Six Sects Sword Dao Conference is about to elect the leader of the Sword Sect once every ten years, and I hope you can do your best to help His Holiness seize the position of alliance leader." ”
The middle-aged Taoist seemed to be taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Envoy, Venerable Cultivator's cultivation is so high, of course it is not a problem to overpower the six factions, but Venerable ......" Speaking of this, he didn't dare to say any further.
"Not bad. It's normal for you to have such doubts. The black-armored man said: "But this is the arrangement of His Holiness, you can cooperate with peace of mind, just do your own thing, and you don't have to worry about the rest." ”
The middle-aged Taoist hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, follow the arrangement of the envoy." ”
Only then did the black-armored man nod and said, "Okay." That's exactly how it should be. You can do things with peace of mind. After the deed is completed, His Holiness will naturally not lose your benefits. ”
The middle-aged Taoist hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Envoy." ”
The black-armored man nodded, turned around and turned into a cloud of black gas, disappearing into the dark night rain. The middle-aged Taoist also immediately extinguished the lights and disappeared into the darkness in an instant.
At this time, hundreds of kilometers away, the Shushan Sword Sect in the depths of Shu Mountain was a different scene. The lights in the main hall of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion were bright, and below the head of Shushan, more than three generations of disciples were called into the main hall, and everyone held their breath, waiting for one thing. That is, today is the last day of the retreat and cultivation of the current head of the Yuan Gang Dao Chief, this retreat of the head of Yuan Gang is not only a practice, but also two small tribulations to refine the gods and return to the void, the out-of-body stage from the late stage of the god to the early stage of refining the gods is the second small tribulation, and the power is ten times stronger than the first small tribulation, and countless people who cultivate the truth have lost their lives in the second small tribulation, and the form and god are destroyed, which can be described as extremely dangerous. For hundreds of years, no one in the Shushan Sword Sect has survived this Heavenly Tribulation safely, and all the previous heads of the sect have died in the Heavenly Tribulation, or they have not even been able to cultivate in the Yuan Infant stage.
Yuan Gang Dao Chang is the outstanding figure of the Shushan Sword Sect in the past hundred years, and he has reached the late Yuan Infant stage in less than the year of the sixtieth year, if he can survive this catastrophe safely, he is a master of cultivation at the same stage as the head of the Kunlun Sword Sect, Tianhong Zhenren.
The retreat place of the Yuangang Daoist is on the mountainside of the back mountain, and the Shushan Sword Sect Guarding the Mountain Array Hongmeng Liangyi Micro Dust Array is on the backside of the mountain, guarding the important area of the front hall and the back mountain.
Daoist Yuangang chose this place for retreat, firstly, this place is quiet, and idle disciples are not allowed to enter; secondly, relying on the power of the Hongmeng Liangyi Dust Great Array to help himself, this array can be transformed at will, and the subtlety is incomparable, which can be described as a first-class sword array in the world.
The disciples waited in the main hall for a day and a night, and Elder Yuanbao, one of the seven elders of Shushan, said: "Senior Brother Yuangang left instructions, saying that it was out of the customs today, and now it is the time of the ugly hour, after such a long time, why is there no movement. ”
Another elder, Daoist Yuan Wen, said: "This retreat of Senior Brother Yuan Gang is not usual, but it is to survive the second Heavenly Tribulation, and it is really impossible to know how long it will take to successfully survive the Heavenly Tribulation. Senior Brother Yuan Gang is slightly delayed, that's normal, I'll wait a little longer. ”
All the disciples also had no good method, so they all nodded yes and continued to wait in the main hall.
A few more hours passed, and the heavy rain continued, but the sky was already slightly bright, and it was more than four hours since the timing that Daoist Yuan Gang had said.
The eldest disciple Phantom Sword said worriedly: "Uncles, my master once explained to me before the retreat, if he has not yet left the customs at the time of Chen, he will go to us to close the formation, and go to the formation to find him, there must be an accident." ”
Several elders were taken aback when they heard this, and they glanced at each other, and Elder Yuan Leopard said, "If Senior Brother Yuan Gang really has such an order, then it is already past the hour, and I will go to find him immediately." ”
Several other elders also nodded, and a group of people set off from the main hall and came to the mountainside behind the mountain. I saw that the mountainside was full of fog, and the Hongmeng Liangyi Great Array was still open. The elders didn't dare to close the formation easily, for fear of missing the Yuangang Dao Chief's tribulation, so they ordered the five elders to take the ten head disciples to search for it first, and Elder Yuanwen himself sat in the center and waited for news.
Who knows, it was a few hours after this time, and the five elders and ten disciples who entered the formation to find came out of the big array one after another, and they all said that they didn't see Daoist Yuangang.
After discussing with several elders, Elder Yuanwen knew that something was wrong, and they withdrew from the large array together, revealing the true face of this place on the mountainside. I saw a lush greenery, overgrown with more than 100 years of ancient and famous trees, but under the search, there was no trace of Yuangang Daochang. Could it be that the head of Shushan disappeared by himself in retreat......
