Chapter Forty-Nine: The Dragon's Sect
In the boundless mortal realm, there are five major regions, the Wind God Continent, the Barren Moon Continent, the Forsaken Continent, the Qingqing Continent, and the Arctic Continent, each region is vast and immense, and few people can get out of the continent they are in in their lifetime.
One is that each regional continent is too vast to be imagined, and there are hundreds of millions of miles of unknown fierce land between the two adjacent regional continents, which is also the reason why each continent cannot invade each other.
These unknown ferocious lands are either lifeless barren lands, or endless primeval forests with miasma, or scorching deserts with high temperatures and combustible everything, or extremely cold and frozen snowfields, and there are countless second- and third-order fierce beasts in these fierce places, and there are even many fourth-order high-level flood beasts living deep in them, and wanting to cross the two regional continents is like a fool's dream.
But there is no absolute, there is a kind of person who still has the hope of crossing the regional continent, this is the immortal cultivator, but it must be a top immortal cultivator, when it reaches the Yuan Infant Stage, the Yuan Infant Monk has the great magic power of moving the river and reclaiming the sea, but even then they are not absolutely sure, the reason is that the distance between the regional continents is too vast, and the unknown is sinister, and the fourth-order flood desolate beast is equal to the human Yuan Infant Stage, and how much can one person beat.
The Barren Moon Continent, since the ancient flood period, there is a fairy world power to break the void, here one after another, hundreds of millions of years large and small sects have been numerous, some gradually develop and grow, some slowly disappear in the long river of history, the big eat the small, the strong swallow the weak, ups and downs, rise and fall, rise and fall.
On this Barren Moon Continent, there are thousands of large and small sects, and they can be roughly divided into: non-mainstream sects, third-rate sects, second-rate sects, and first-class sects.
There are hundreds of non-mainstream sects and third-rate sects, and there are only two or three cats and dogs, and the highest cultivation is only one to two or three foundation building monks, and even the entire sect is only composed of condensation stage monks.
Second-rate sects often have thousands or even thousands of monks in a sect, and there are several or more than a dozen high-level monks in the Jindan period in the sect, and the monks of this kind of sect are often the sects that walk the most in the world, and they are the most important intermediate force in the world of cultivating immortals;
There are only four first-class sects on this continent, and they divide this continent into four major domains, and they are in charge of the fate of this continent, whether it is the establishment and change of mortal dynasties, or the division of resources in the immortal cultivation world, the division of sect levels, etc., they are all in charge of the four factions.
They are: Taixuanjiao, Pure Land Sect, Ten Step Courtyard, and Dragons Sect.
Taixuanjiao believes in Taoism and Sanqing, the Pure Land Sect incarnates as a Buddhist Arhat, the Ten Steps Courtyard flies a thousand miles of swords, and the Dragons Sect is good at driving poison and insects, and assassinating with open stabs.
Each of the four major sects has several Yuanying old monsters who have practiced for thousands of years, dozens of high-level monks in the Jindan period, and their combat effectiveness is terrifying and abnormal, and there are thousands of disciples in the foundation building and condensation period under the sect, and the sect has a profound heritage.
However, these major sects rarely walk in the world, and perhaps only when strange treasures are born and catastrophes fall from the sky do they flock out, and they usually either concentrate on cultivation behind closed doors, or explore unknown and dangerous places to find opportunities, and pursue the way of immortality.
In the western and central part of the Barren Moon Continent, the rolling mountains are covered by thick vegetation, and the towering giant trees rise luxuriantly to the sky, and the canopy covers the sky and the sun, layer upon layer, boundless.
One of the four major sects is located here, it is composed of five peaks into the shape of "mountain", four peaks side by side on two sides, two peaks on one side, the last peak is in the middle and back, and the upper buildings on each peak are basically facing the south and the north.
Each mountain peak covers an extremely wide area, towering into the clouds, the west side side two peaks are called "Xiaozhu Peak", "do not leave the peak"; the east side side two peaks are called "Sixiang Peak", "Spirit Insect Peak", the mountain peak in the back is called "Laojun Peak".
At this time, the crane spirit bird on the Laojun Peak circulates and flies from time to time, the jade building carves the railing, the pavilion and the pavilion, the flowing water and the mist flow away, and the path winds in the meantime, leading to the place where the clouds and mist are shrouded.
In the huge palace at the top of Laojun Peak, there are more than a dozen people talking in two rows.
The first person sat in the middle of the palace, this person was about seven feet tall, with long eyebrows and broad eyes, a white and solemn complexion, and his eyes were exposed with fine light, he was about fifty years old, dressed as a Taoist priest, with black hair tied in a bun, the top bun was pinned with a hosta, and a whisk of dust hung obliquely on the arm.
The first dozen or so people sat in two rows, tall and short, fat and thin, ugly and handsome, male and female, all of them wearing dark green robes, and when they looked closely, only the cuffs were embroidered with the same or different gold patterns.
"Then this five-year ratio will be like this, and the top ten rewards will be distributed in the afternoon. The Taoist priest dressed as an old man flicked his sleeve with one hand, picked up the whisk hanging on his other arm, and waved it gently, and spoke.
In a flick, the cuffs revealed a tripod-shaped golden pattern, but this tripod picture is a hideous beast's mouth looking up to the sky, which makes people suddenly feel that it is quite inconsistent with his Taoist appearance.
"Yes, boss," the people in the second row below responded in unison.
"In the top ten this time, only four people from Senior Brother Wei's Xiao Zhufeng participated, and two of them won the ranking, compared to our disciples who often participated in dozens or hundreds of people, but it was embarrassing. ”
At this time, the first three strands of long hair, about thirty years old Confucian said to a person opposite him with a smile, his face was as white as jade, his eyes were narrow and long, he wore a scribe's crown, and the cuffs were embroidered with a golden snake-shaped thing, making his mouth fang-shaped, and his sleeves were rolling, like a living thing swimming, and his fangs opened and closed.
The person he looked at was sitting opposite him, he was about seven feet tall, slightly fat, wearing a scribe's scarf, his eyes were pure and bright under his thick eyebrows, his lips were thick and beardless, he was about twenty-seven or eight years old, giving people a pure and harmonious atmosphere, but the cuffs were embroidered with a piece of golden bamboo, and at this time a round face looked at Confucius with a smile.
After Confucius finished speaking, some other people also nodded.
After listening to a beautiful woman about forty years old, she smiled and said, "What Senior Brother Feng said is that the little junior brother is like this every time, which can be called how the slave family disciplines a group of disciples", she said this move, beautiful eyes look forward to it, and the water waves, it is really a thousand kinds of style, a dark green robe does not look wide on its body, but it is a more contrasting figure, the body is round and swaying when speaking, and the white and smooth light at the neckline between the sways flashes from time to time, and the charm is scattered.
Many people present hurriedly bowed their heads or turned their heads, and secretly scolded in their hearts, "Dead witch, just talk, what kind of witchcraft are you doing." ”
The old man with a solemn face was also a little embarrassed, and his junior sister didn't care about the occasion, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she had to be seductive.
"I said, Senior Brother Wei, you are a second-hand day and day free, and you simply open up to accept apprentices, but we are thousands of people up and down the peak. Another man with a golden compass embroidered on his cuffs was swarthy and thick, and he spoke.
"Senior Brother Wei, it's like you, there will be only three or two cats and dogs left in my Dragon Sect for another thousand years. "A woman with a mediocre complexion, but between her eyebrows seemed to be iceless, her face was also gloomy, and her cuffs were embroidered with two insects that hugged each other tightly, even strangely.
Looking at the people below who were criticizing the fat young man, the solemn-faced old Taoist at the top had his eyes half-closed, and he said in his heart, "Senior Brother Wei, every time you are done no matter whether it is a big or small competition, you will be like this, can't you take the initiative to take on the heavy responsibility in the door? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
After a while, some people spoke, and some people smiled on the side, or squinted without saying a word, and others who were called Senior Brother Wei said that he was not annoyed, and only when everyone gradually finished speaking, he smiled and spoke." Hehe, senior brothers, elders, I have been in Chengdan for more than 200 years, you still catch me like this, junior brother, I am the latest to start, but my lazy nature is not diligent anyway, the master handed over Xiaozhufeng to me, I just didn't take it, but his old man had to force it on my head, I started to accept disciples like the rest of the four peaks, but in the end, they didn't all throw themselves to your four peaks, just a few people left, I really don't know how to manage. As he spoke, he took a second-hand stall.
In the end, even a few elders didn't want to go, and you asked the elders who were sent, but you were okay, you and your wife had been in retreat for more than ten or twenty years, and you didn't ask about anything, and the elders also had to practice, and each of them had to have a plan and arrangement for doing things, and you didn't ask anything. "Someone opened his mouth to complain.
"Hehe, I'm not handing over the affairs of Xiaozhufeng to the big disciple to manage now, like these big competitions, ranking competitions or something, you have to screen out the candidates from thousands or hundreds of miles, and it's a headache to think about that bunch of people. Senior Brother Wei looked reluctant.
He paused, and his face turned grim, "By the way, Senior Brother Feng, I heard yesterday that the 'Spirit Worm Peak' Law Enforcement Hall brought back a person, is it really a 'fragmented poisonous body'? ”
The Confucian scholar whose cuffs were embroidered with a golden snake suddenly looked bad, this involved something that they didn't want to mention, it has been like a fish in the throat for the past few years, although the traitor is dead, but the face is not light, the sect has been passed down to this day, and it is the first time that the exercises have been stolen.
When the solemn old man heard this, he sighed in his heart, "This Senior Brother Wei has diverted the topic again, but this lazy temperament can't either." However, when he heard this, he also turned his head to look at Confucius.
"Senior Brother Feng, yesterday because of the incident of Dabi, and I heard that the kid who brought back was also dying of breath and needed treatment, so I didn't ask about it, but is there such a thing?"
The others saw that the senior brother in charge also began to inquire about other matters, and knew that the matter of "Senior Brother Wei" was over, and they all smiled and shook their heads, just now this was originally a casual word, this has been more than two hundred years, Xiao Zhufeng is going to change it early, just now I just want to count this lazy and gentle little junior brother, of course, the elders next to them are happy to see their senior brothers make a fuss, and Xiu Xian occasionally needs to be teased like mortals.
They all looked at the called Confucian surnamed Confucian, and the slender fingers of the Confucian surnamed Feng tapped a few times on the armrest of the chair, as if organizing language.
"Lianshan has defected out of the peak for 20 years, we have been sending people to chase and kill him outside, until last year we got the trace of this person, he should be looking for an opportunity after defecting out of the peak, entered a Jindan period monk cave before his death, but deserved Lianshan This person was fated, was injured and escaped by the cave protection array, and fell and died outside the cave, his storage bag was also scattered, and the items in it were also destroyed and scattered, but did not find a trace of the jade slips and books of the exercises, so it was judged that the exercises were not damaged, and they may have been taken away by others.
In fact, if it is damaged and destroyed, the matter will be over, anyway, what we want is this person's life and find the original whereabouts of the exercises.
Later, after exploring the surrounding area of the cave house, I learned from some loose cultivators that the exercises may be obtained by people who are 'seeking immortals'. Seeking immortals' This kind of person, I think you must also be clear, they have been pursuing the road to immortality all their lives, no matter what sect of immortal law they get, they dare to cultivate, so the law enforcement hall started with the medicinal materials needed for the introduction of the exercises, and finally found the territory of the imperial dynasty millions of miles away, where it was found that a military advisor in the border army may have practiced the exercises, and he has cultivated to the peak of the third layer of the condensation period.
Because it involves some rules between us and mortals, so the Law Enforcement Hall has to be cautious, after investigation, this person has also purchased some medicinal materials needed for the relevant entry, and he only appeared there six or seven years ago, plus some of his physical appearance and characteristics, it can be inferred that he is the person who has obtained the exercises in the 'Seeking Immortal One Vein', and from his usual appearance, he is forcibly cultivating, which may be due to the lack of medicinal materials.
The reason why he came to the army again, the reason can also be introduced from the fact that he accepted apprentices in the army, he didn't know how to get the spirit absorption Dafa, maybe he wanted to use this method to remove the fire poison in the body, but his mana was low, how could he find a suitable candidate, so he looked for a person with a spiritual root in the army, but this person was also considered lucky, he actually found two mortals with spiritual roots one after another, and they both had wood attributes. ”
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh, "It takes a lot of effort for us to collect disciples from mortals to find a spiritual root, but he finds it one after another like this, which is really good luck." ”
The others nodded their heads when they heard this.
