Chapter 121 The Situation in the Yan Kingdom An undercurrent is surging
Nothing was said all night.
Zhong Yan sat alone in the study, pondering until dawn, recalling the information that Gongsun Nuannuan talked about in his mind.
Although it is fragmented, most of them are just a few words that Gongsun Nuannuan heard from the senior sisters, but many problems can be seen from it.
For example, Gongsun Nuannuan is a 'wind attribute alien spirit root'.
Except for a few personal disciples of Qifeng, only a few people in the sect knew about it.
Coupled with the 'Earth Spirit Root of the Three Peaks', it can be seen that the Fire Cloud Sect also secretly hides disciples with outstanding talents.
The Heavenly Spirit Root of the Fire Cloud Sect should be more than the four currently known - the Great Elder, Dongfang Tuo, Gongsun Nuannuan, and Earth Spirit Root.
Dongfang Tuo is just known to the outside world and shown to others.
It can be inferred from this that most of the other sects and big families are also hidden, and if you haven't heard of it, it doesn't mean that you haven't.
Gongsun Nuannuan also mentioned that the internal peace of the Huoyun Sect was not peaceful.
For example, two years ago, the fourth peak and the sixth peak had a conflict between two disciples, which led to a big fight between the two peaks, and even the peak master was red-eyed, causing several disciples to fall, including two in the foundation building period......
For another example, the main peak is divided into two major factions.
One faction is headed by the current sect master, and the supporters behind it are the sect cultivators who are the highest elders.
But he has not appeared for more than 30 years, and it is rumored that he may be close to life, or he may be seriously injured before breaking through, and he has won over the second, fourth, seventh, ninth, and fourth peaks.
The other faction was led by the Lord of the Law Enforcement Palace, and the supporters were several Foundation Building Dzogchen, including the Second Elder, and the third, fifth, sixth, and eighth peaks were co-opted.
There are many contradictions between the two factions, and there is tension between the two factions.
The main contradiction is not only the competition for the position of the suzerain, but also the future development trend of the sect.
And the war of Wei is the key fuse.
The sect master belongs to the 'old school', advocating to stabilize the current internal cultivation forces of the Yan State, and only assigning subordinates to garrison the gains from the Wei war.
The first line of the Law Enforcement Hall is a 'radical faction', advocating the unity of the four countries, completely dismantling the cultivation forces of the Wei State, expanding the territory, and integrating the internal cultivation forces of the Yan State.
Although the incident of the 'Nian Li Bead' has just happened, Zhong Yan is sure that it will definitely become one of the new contradictions between the two factions in the near future.
In addition, the seven peaks are not stable.
Li Lin left, the return date was slim, and the affairs of the Seven Peaks were temporarily managed by the eldest disciple Su Yue.
However, the main peak seems to be interested in re-electing a new peak master to settle in the seven peaks.
Moreover, the peak master of the fourth peak personally came forward to ask his disciples for marriage, and wanted to marry the sixth disciple of the seventh peak, but was temporarily excused by Su Yue.
"The cultivation forces of the Yan Kingdom seem to be calm, but in fact, the undercurrent is turbulent, I am afraid that the chaos will not be long in coming......."
Zhong Yan sighed, from the Huoyun Sect sent a large number of inner disciples, you can know a thing or two.
There were thirty new inner disciples in Yangquanfang City, including his two former friends.
The Yan Kingdom was led by the Huoyun Sect and the Chiyang Sect, and the relationship between the two sects and the cultivation forces in the territory was intricate.
The internal struggle of the Huoyun Sect gradually appeared, and in a sense, it also represented the turmoil in the entire Yan Kingdom's cultivation world.
"Plans can't keep up with the changing ......"
Zhong Yan originally planned to accumulate the foundation steadily, and after successfully giving birth to a few spiritual root heirs, he would get a spiritual vein up and down, starting from the Wangqi Immortal Cultivation Family, and slowly extending to the Huoyun Sect.
And now, the 'War of Wei' and the 'Prayer Bead' have hit his heels, leaving him no more time.
"Spiritual vein, ......"
Zhong Yan sighed, his eyes showing yearning and envy.
I didn't know before, but I heard Gongsun Nuannuan say last night that Qifeng alone has a third-order mid-grade spiritual vein, which is enough for ten Jindan monks to practice.
"Zhong Lang!"
Yu Qingyao's shouts came from outside.
Zhong Yan, who was standing in front of the window with his hand, turned around and saw him coming with Yang Liu'er.
"Concubine to my uncle."
Yang Liu'er leaned over and handed over a letter, "Uncle, Changning has replied!" ”
Zhong Yan took it and looked at it with Yu Qingyao, and Yang Liu'er also stepped on her feet and looked at it with a pair of eyes.
There is not much information found, it is all basic information, and many of the words used are 'supplied', 'legend', 'heard', 'possible' and so on.
Part of it coincides with the information collected by Huo Donglai, but it is not so accurate.
Such as:
Shen Nanfeng, the ancestor of the Shen family, is said to be more than one hundred and thirty years old, suspected to be a dual-attribute true spiritual root, six years ago, he built the peak of the seventh layer, and may have broken through to the eighth layer......
Shen Nanfeng is a refiner, the specific level is unknown, and the Shen family is mainly engaged in the cultivation of magic weapons and elixir spiritual fields.
The Shen family has a total of three foundation-building members, and the other two, one is Shen Nanfeng's Taoist couple, and the realm may be on the fifth floor of the foundation, and he has not made a move for many years.
The other is the current head of the Shen family, Shen Linghai, the fifth son of Shen Nanfeng, who successfully built the foundation two years ago.
The second generation is Shen Linghai, who is more outstanding, and there are only five or six people in the later stage of qi refining.
Three generations of children, there are more than a dozen late stage of qi refining, and there are more sons-in-law in the late stage of qi refining.
As for the four generations, they are still young, and they have only heard that there are four or five spiritual root descendants.
Among them, the head of the family, Shen Linghai, is the second son of the ninth layer of qi refining, and is currently practicing in the Huoyun Sect.
The seventh daughter, who is the main owner of Qingyang this time, is twenty-two years old, and it is said that she has reached the peak of the eighth layer of qi refining, and she has stayed in the clan to cultivate all the year round, and she only has the name of 'Shen Wuli', and has never shown her true face......
Zhong Yan couldn't help muttering: "Shen Linghai's bloodline is very strong. ”
Nine wives and concubines, who gave birth to more than forty children, have seven spiritual root children, and at least, maybe there are still young ones who are not known to outsiders.
And the mortals and monks in his clan are completely separated, Shen Wuli is not 'ranked seventh', but only ranked seventh among monks.
Yu Qingyao frowned and said softly: "Husband, Shen Nanfeng's realm is so high, why are there so few monks in the clan, and there are no foundation building guests?" ”
Zhong Yandao: "This is obviously a family-type path, focusing on direct bloodline, do you think that Shen Wuli can have this realm just by relying on talent and qualifications, and it must take a lot of resources to cultivate."
Even if they are the children of the family, their qualifications are not good, and they don't have many resources available, so they are reserved for the children with potential, not to mention Keqing.
Without a good reward, who will go to the foundation monks? There is also a lot of competition between the children of the family and between the guest and the guest.
Moreover, Shen Nanfeng Shouyuan is still sufficient, and he is enough to deter him, and when he is old, the younger generations of clansmen will grow up, and they will naturally spend a lot of money to recruit the foundation builder. ”
Zhong Yan sighed: "The clan has been established for less than a hundred years, and this strength is very strong!" ”
He returned the letter to Yang Liu'er, glanced at each other and said, "To Ping'er, the clan rules can learn from the Shen family's model of managing the children of the family." ”
Yang Liu'er blinked, "Yes, uncle, more detailed information should be sent back soon." ”
Yu Qingyao said: "Husband, Bai Daoyou has come back from Fang Market and bought ten demon beasts in the early stage of Qi refining, and he should come to the mansion today......
After a pause, she continued: "By the way, husband, when I came back from the Colosseum last night, Xu Yun and Xie Xinjie asked me to meet, that is, my former two casual teammates, asked me about recruiting Keqing, I didn't say it explicitly, but I also seemed to want to join, and I will visit today." ”
Zhong Yan nodded, I heard about it in Yangquanfang City last time, and Yu Qingyao and the two were not close.
"What do you mean?"
Yu Qingyao was silent for a while and said, "The husband is in charge, Xie Xinjie may have a ninth layer of qi refining, will the realm be inappropriate?" ”
"Then we'll see when we come, you can add two more places for them."
At this time, Zhong Xiaozhong came running.
"Master, two immortal masters from Yangquanfang City, Han Jiuping and Zhang Dongzhuo, have visited!"
