For the next few days, Liang Cheng concentrated on his practice in the ashram and did not leave a single step. Master Qingxu came over every day to check and give advice, and when he saw that Liang Cheng had no distractions, he quickly stabilized his cultivation realm, and it was much smoother than expected, and he was very satisfied.

As everyone knows, Liang Cheng summoned the phantom tapir Shi Meng every night, entered the cave, meditated and practiced in the first half of the night, and slept and dreamed in the second half of the night. One man and one beast, with tacit understanding, each has its own place.

Early that morning, in the back yam garden, the boy Ah Shen stood respectfully outside the door. I saw a small black dot in the air in the distance, and soon flew close to the medicine garden, it turned out to be Taiqing Lao Dao stepping on a simple long sword, carrying the medicine box is flying with the sword, and after a while, the old road fell to the ground, Ah Shen hurriedly greeted Shi Li. Taiqing waved his hand and then went into the room to rest for a while, and called in Ah Shen to ask about the matter of the past year or so, and when he heard that Liang Cheng had actually cultivated the entry heart method to the tenth layer, and was already in the consolidation realm and was preparing to build a foundation, he couldn't help but be surprised. I couldn't help but immediately get up and go straight to the view.

Qingxu knew that Taiqing was coming, so he had already ordered someone to arrange the fragrant tea and fruits and wait there.

"Uncle Shi is back, I've worked hard all the way, please use tea. As soon as Qingxu saw the old way, he smiled and stood up and saluted.

"Virtuous nephew doesn't need to be polite, your closed disciple is really extraordinary, I heard that he has cultivated to the stage of Qi cultivation. ”

"That's exactly the case, so recently the little nephew asked him to consolidate the realm in the view, and give him guidance nearby, if it goes well, after half a month, he can try to build a foundation. ”

"This kid's progress is really fast, I'm afraid that the advanced Qi cultivation period has been completed before he has even practiced the beginner spells, in this case, the foundation may not be solid. "It's too clear.

"Don't hide it from my uncle, my little nephew didn't teach him any beginner spells at all, but only taught him the introductory Qi Cultivation Method. Seeing that Taiqing was a little surprised, Qingxu continued: "This son is in a difficult heart, and he has a lot of worries in his heart, I am afraid that he will not be able to turn his heart to the avenue." ”

Taiqing pondered for a while, sat down, and said slowly: "I came back this time, and I was delayed in Wusheng Pass for a few days, because there was a strange thing there, which was related to your disciple. It's just that at this moment, I can't let him know about it. ”

"I want to hear about it. Seeing the solemnity of what the old Taoist said, Qingxu also sat down and waited quietly for the following.

Taiqing's eyes stared at Qingxu for a long time without blinking, and then he said, "If I hadn't been friends with you for many years and knew your character well, I would have doubted that you did this." ”

Qingxu was stunned, and was about to say something, Taiqing raised his hand to stop it, and then said: "On the night nine days ago, the family of Liang Feiyun, the chief soldier of Wusheng Pass, was tragically wiped out, and dozens of people in the family, except for a few servants, were all killed, have you heard about this?"

"Huh?" Qingxu was stunned.

"It is said that at that time, a terrible ghost creature that fell from the sky broke into the house and went on a killing spree, killing anyone he saw. In a moment, the Liang Mansion was turned upside down, and when the deputy general of the garrison rushed to the rescue, the ghosts had long since disappeared, only corpses everywhere and a few subordinates who hid in time and did not possess their bodies. This kind of thing happened, and now the people in Wusheng Guan are panicked, there is chaos, all kinds of rumors are spreading, and the government can hardly suppress it. ”

"There is such a thing! Recently, there has been a slight mistake in the Yuehuatan Enchantment, and the whole Guanzhong is busy dealing with this matter, and no one knows that such a big thing happened in Wushengguan, ashamed! The little nephew really doesn't know. Qingxu said in surprise.

Although he had a clear conscience, Qingxu was also quite uncomfortable, and couldn't help but open his mouth to defend: "Senior uncle, although I tried my best to accept Liang Cheng's apprentice and let him participate in this talent meeting of this sect, so as to fight for the face of Shizun and the third ancestor and his old man, but this kind of tragic incident of destroying the door and the little nephew can't do it." ”

"Don't worry, if the old man doesn't trust you, he won't say these things to you today. Taiqing comforted.

"Thank you Uncle for your trust. Qingxu breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time frowned: "In this way, Liang Cheng's retreat has been broken, so the cultivation must be changed, but now he is in the critical period before building the foundation, and this matter must be hidden from him, I will arrange it immediately, except for you and me, no one is allowed to contact him." ”

"Come on!" After Qingxu called people to arrange Liang Cheng's affairs, he planned with Taiqing about the meeting of the talents of the Yunyin Sect.

It turned out that this three-hundred-year-old talent meeting was a major event within the Yunyin Sect. The Yunyin Sect has been established for thousands of years, and at the beginning it was just a small sect of cultivation, occupying a small island by the East China Sea and operating miserably, and it was insignificant in the East China Sea cultivation realm. Fortunately, there was a fifth-generation sect leader Jianji Zhenren, but this person was an unborn cultivation genius, who had cultivated to the astonishing Yuanying realm in less than a thousand years. At the same time, he was eloquent and strategic, reorganized the Yunyin Sect, and applied both soft and hard to other Xiuzhen sects in the East China Sea, combining grace and power, and squeezing them out, and some hostile sects even directly exterminated them. In this way, the Miaozhen Cloud Hidden Sect became more and more powerful, almost dominating the East China Sea, and its power secretly extended inland, becoming one of the largest sects in the cultivation world.

Fortunately, the ambition of the Yunyin Sect is not inland, and it is intimidated by the prestige of Jianji Zhenren, and some of the forces of the Yunyin Sect in the inland have not really touched the fundamental interests of the inland Xiuzhen sect, so it has not aroused the hostility of the inland Xiuzhen sect.

Seeing the prosperity of the sect, Jianji Zhenren transferred the entire sect to the four large islands in the depths of the East China Sea, and closed himself to the largest of them, named "Yunyin Island", and the other three islands were "Sumeru Island", "Myoko Island" and "Jizen Island", and the four islands were each stationed in the outstanding disciples of the sect, forming a pattern of one main and three branches. Over the years, in order to consolidate their positions and compete for the cultivation resources within the sect, each island has attached great importance to the selection and training of outstanding disciples, so it has gradually formed a three-hundred-year-old talent meeting.

Due to the sparse overseas population, the male and female disciples in the sect have mediocre qualifications, and in view of the difficulty of developing on the path of cultivation, when they reach a certain age, they are often arranged by the master to marry, reproduce, and manage the secular affairs of the sect. The children and grandchildren who gave birth to have the potential to cultivate the truth were included as disciples of the sect, and gradually formed some families attached to the sect. But even so, the number of new disciples on each island is often insufficient. Therefore, the branches that are secretly developing in the inland of the islands are mainly looking for excellent cultivators.

Liang Cheng's Immeasurable View is the branch of Yunyin's main island that is secretly developing in the inland southwest. Speaking of the main vein on Yunyin Island, at the beginning, because there was a Jianji real person who was in retreat on the island, although he did not interfere in the affairs of the sect, but because of his extremely high prestige, how could the other three islands dare to disagree, so they all looked forward to the main island, although the first Wuchen on Yunyin Island was only the third disciple of Jianji Zhenren, but his cultivation was both high, and he was shrewd and capable, and the other islands were also convinced.

However, more than a thousand years ago, in order to break through the realm of Yuanying, Jianji Zhenren switched out and went to a secret realm in the southwest of the inland to seek opportunities. Since then, there has been a lot of speculation among the disciples over the years, some say that the real person has advanced and successfully ascended to the upper realm, some say that the real person has fallen, and some say that the real person is trapped in the secret realm, and so on. Although the sect secretly sent people to search in many ways, they never found anything, and finally ended up fruitless.

Hundreds of years later, the original first seat of each island and the four personal disciples of Jianji Zhenren succeeded in marrying Dan before and after, and they were all closed out for the sake of concentration on the avenue, and they were respected as the "Four Ancestors of Yunyin Sect" by the disciples. The position of the head of each island was then given to their respective disciples.

At this point, the islands began to look at each other, disagreeing with each other, and the open and secret battles became more and more intense, the Yunyin main island has not had a good situation in the past few hundred years, and although the reputation of the first Tianyuzi who took over is slightly stronger than that of the other islands, it does not have too many advantages, and most of the qualifications of the new disciples are mediocre, compared with the other three islands, it is gradually falling behind. But in any case, this triennial talent meeting is a stage for each island to show its strength and strive for more cultivation resources.

These cultivation resources are the power of the entire Yunyin Sect over the past three hundred years, or cultivated and refined, or collected from the Eastern Sea, or even the inland places to collect the spirit stone elixir, the demon beast inner pill, and even the magic weapon immortal weapon.

On the day of the conference, the first seat of the four islands will be present to watch, and the outstanding disciples selected by each island will be divided into several groups and compete on the stage. The winners can give priority to the islands they represent to obtain more cultivation resources according to their rankings, and they can also get rich rewards, which is indeed a grand event for outstanding disciples of the Cloud Yin Sect to ascend to the Dragon Gate.

Because the Yunyin Sect has always had a tradition of valuing new disciples, the number of new disciples and personal qualifications included on each island are the highlight of the Talent Club, and the best four of them will be rewarded by the four ancestors themselves. It is self-evident what the guidance and rewards given by the monk are self-evident to a cultivator who has just gotten a glimpse of the path.
