After Cangnu surrendered, the banks of the Qinghe River quickly returned to peace.

Zhong Yunyao is still anxious without distractions, just looking for Mengrui Butterfly.

Xiao Yuan, on the other hand, was seriously injured and had difficulty climbing for a while, but he was anxious with Zhong Yunyao to force himself to stand up by force.

When he was young, Xiao Yuan finally stood up from the ground, but it was very difficult to walk, and he limped.

When Zhong Yunyao saw this, she immediately went to help, but was gently and categorically rejected by Xiao Yuan.

Although Xiao Yuan was seriously injured, he was not worried about his life. At this time, the two of them were safe, but at this time, Xiao Yuan had a different scene in his heart.

was originally to protect Zhong Yunyao and fulfill her wish for her, so as not to let Zhong Yunyao be so sad and wanted to restore her original liveliness and innocence to make up for her debts. He is even willing to let Zhong Yunyao become his "burden" forever, drag himself down forever, and rely on himself forever, so that he can take care of her forever, accompany her forever, and never abandon her! It's not that he is protecting Zhong Yunyao, but that Zhong Yunyao is protecting himself, it's not that Zhong Yunyao has become a burden to himself, but that he has become a burden to Zhong Yunyao at the time of life and death, as a dignified seven-foot man, how can Xiao Yuan bear this?

Although it was very difficult to walk, he still gritted his teeth and held on, not letting Zhong Yunyao support him for a moment, and whenever Zhong Yunyao helped him, he was gently and categorically refused.

Not only that, Xiao Yuan even mustered up the remaining strength to urge the true qi, forcibly resisted the sword, and carried Zhong Yunyao across the Qing River. Under the influence of that strong willpower, he finally completed the act of crossing the river and entered the Xinghe River.

Originally, dozens of major sects of Xinghechuan were juxtaposed side by side, and they participated in the Great Dao of Enlightenment.

However, the most difficult thing for mortals to restrain in cultivating immortals is their innate desires. When the cultivation reaches a certain level, and when you master a little Taoism and mana, you will not be able to withstand the temptation of external materials and become greedy, often intrigue and calculate each other for some petty profits, and in the face of major interests, you will not hesitate to fight each other and destroy the soul.

After hundreds of years of melee and mergers, there are only four factions left in the dozens of major sects in the past.

In the name of the mountain, they are Baiming Mountain School, Yunhua Mountain School, Jiujin Mountain School and Tianxiang Mountain School.

If Xiao Yuan and Zhong Yunyao want to pass through this Xinghe River smoothly, they must pass through the four immortal mountains in this river.

The first stop is Baiming Mountain.

However, when the two of them had just stepped into the Baiming Mountain Pass, they were forcibly stopped by the four mountain guards.

"Who are you?" One of the Taoist priests spoke. After that, he and the other three Taoist priests quickly made a martial arts posture.

"I am the young master of the Tianxing Sect, Xiao Yuan! I entered the Xinghe Road and passed through Baoshan to find someone, and I will stay for a short time! You can go back to the head of the 'Xuanjian' and tell him about it, and let him be accommodating, and count me Xiao Yuan owing Baoshan a favor, and I will pay it back in the future!" Xiao Yuan's seriously injured body returned with difficulty and stability.

"How can I believe that you are the young master of Xiao, I think you two are like the spies of the three mountains, come to find out the truth of my Baiming Mountain! !!" After that, without waiting for Xiao Yuan to explain, he made a big move.

These four mountain guards are all in the foundation building class, and their strength is higher than that of Xiao Yuan. Besides, Xiao Yuan was now seriously injured, and Zhong Yunyao's Dragon Hidden Sword could only deter the snake clan before recovering its spiritual power, but it had no deterrent power against human beings, especially immortal cultivators. The two of them were soon controlled by the four mountain guards.

After the four Taoist priests restrained Xiao Yuan and Zhong Yunyao, two of them were escorted to the mountain and handed over to their high-level subordinates.

At this time, in the main hall of Baiming Mountain, its head "Xuanjian" was discussing the sect's plan with the main secretary "Ying Yunzi", the upper elder "urging the way" and the lower elder "leaving hatred".

"Recently, the war has been tight! There were originally fifty sects in the Xinghe River, but there are only four sects left so far, and it is a matter of time before the galaxy returns to one, how should my Baiming Mountain Sect attack and defend?" The head of the sect, Xuan Jian, said.

"Angelica attaches to the strong!" The chief secretary Ying Yunzi replied decisively.

Xuan Jianwen's brows furrowed slightly.

But everyone took it for granted.

however

"Strong, what point is my Baiming Mountain inferior to the other three factions, why should I take refuge in them? Are you taking advantage of them to deceive people?" The lower elder said angrily.

"Presumptuous! Listen to the main boss finish speaking!" Although Xuanjian was displeased, considering Ying Yunzi's identity, status and wisdom, he would still give him face.

"Hmph!" After listening to the hatred, he snorted angrily at the chief priest.

"Elder Xia, don't be angry! Let me ask you, how is my Baiming Mountain compared to the Tianxing Sect?" Ying Yunzi said calmly.

"It's not as good as that!" Although unwilling, he also admits the facts.

"What about the Xianglong Cave?"

"It's not as good as that!" He replied angrily. Then he asked the chief secretary: "This is a matter outside Sichuan, what does it have to do with me in Sichuan?"

"Outside Sichuan, isn't Tianxingzong and Xianglong Cave the land of Sichuan? If not, how can these eight rivers come from?"

"What Lao Tzu said is, what does it have to do with the eight rivers to unify the galaxy?"

"What about after unification?"

"Of course, it's to sit back and enjoy the resources and cultivate with peace of mind!"

"Sit back and relax? How can the crane and the real machine sit idly by? If the two join forces, my Baiming Mountain will die faster! The original three hundred sects in the misty river were wiped out one by one by the crane in the past hundred years, so that only one sect of the Tianxing Sect remained in the huge misty river; the original two hundred and nine sects in the silver twilight river were annexed by the true machine and the Taoist people in only fifty years, so that only one of the sects in the huge silver twilight river still existed in the Xianglong Cave. The one who belongs to the strong is one of these two strong, not the sect that belongs to my galaxy. Although I am not afraid of anything in this galaxy, but in the eyes of the two strong people, I am regarded as an ant, how can I sit back and watch us and enjoy the resources and practice with peace of mind? Only by attaching to the strong and being blessed can we have long-term peace and stability!"

"This ......" The head of the sect Xuan Jian felt like this, although he was unwilling but also helpless.

"Hmph!!" You can only be angry when you leave hatred.

The rest of the people are attached to the discussion of the chief minister.

However, the elder urged him to have something to say.

"The couch of the tiger and wolf, how can you sleep soundly?"

"Reasonable! The elder is reasonable, and I absolutely agree with it!" Away from hatred, I finally found a true partner.

The rest:

"yes!"

"What the Elder said is very true!"

"How can that be, and will we be safe if we belong to us?"

"That's it!"

"This ......"

"Where should we stand?"

"It's hard to say, you can't offend either side!"

"Let's see!"

"This ......"

............

There were those who were in favor of the Great Elders, and there were those who wavered or hesitated.

However, whether they are in favor or disapproving, most of them are not thinking about the proposal itself, but about whose sycophants should be slapped or whether they should cling to the elders or the archmasters.

For the short-sighted, what is in front of them is what can be seen and touched, and the long-term and hidden major benefits and harms are not considered or cannot be seen at all.

But no matter what, Lihate is really for the sake of Baiming Mountain, but he is simpler in mind and has a rough temper!

However, there is no one more sincere than the Lord of the Mountain.

When Xuan Jian heard the words of urging the Tao, his heart was suddenly suspicious and happy. Without waiting for everyone to finish their discussions, they said, "What is the opinion of the elder?

"The two strong have long had the ambition to unify the eight rivers, and whether we return or not will become the fish and meat on their boards......"

"In this way, we can only sit and wait for death? Why don't we unify the four factions of the galaxy first, and then watch the situation and move?......" Without waiting for the Tao to finish speaking, he asked him rhetorically, and put forward his true thoughts.

The Grand Master also observed Xuan Jian's mentality, so he didn't say much, but quietly listened to the elder's urging discussion.

"Does the head really want to put my Baiming Mountain to death? Not to mention whether our faction has the strength to unify the four factions, even if it is unified, just as the Great Master said, how can the Tianxing Sect and the True Machine sit idly by? Our faction will never have the strength to fight against the second power! However, the plan of the Great Master Division to join is a big mistake! But I am by no means a person who sits idly by! How can I survive in Baiming Mountain? How can I not be devoured by the strong? Only by joining forces with the other three factions to defend together, we will be both prosperous and all will be lost! After hundreds of years of fighting in the galaxy, countless creatures in the mountains have died, and the dead graves of the disciples of various factions have piled up all over the mountains, and countless mortal families have been ruined, it is time to resolve the grievances and join forces to resist the strong! If they become enemies of each other or rely on the strong, the four factions will never exist!"

"This ...... Can we unite?" Xuan Jian felt that the Elder Shang was more far-sighted than himself and the Grand Master, although he still wanted to unify the galaxy, but as the head of a faction, he also had to consider the stakes, but how easy was this 'alliance'? Because at this time, the four major sects were still in the midst of a scuffle and tug-of-war, so he asked rhetorically and was eager to know the strategy of the Elder.

However, before the Elder could speak, he suddenly came from nowhere: "In the past, the six countries were combined, but they could not break through the strong Qin, and today the alliance of the four factions can protect itself?"

Its voice is majestic and vibrating.

Immediately after half a hundred years, the wind came.

When everyone heard this, they were shocked. Come back to your senses:

"Elder Taishang?"

"What a Supreme Elder!"

"Why is Elder Taishang here?"

"This ...... It seems like a big problem!"

......

"Presumptuous, bold, don't hurry up and salute when you see Elder Taishang!" After Xuan Jian was shocked, he came back to his senses and saw that everyone was so out of shape and out of place, and he was extremely panicked in his heart, for fear that Elder Taishang would blame himself for not being able to control him, so he said angrily.

"Meet Elder Taishang!" Immediately, everyone knelt on the ground in unison and worshiped loudly, including the head of the sect, Xuanjian.

Through the attitude of the head of the sect and everyone towards this Supreme Elder, it shows his status in Baiming Mountain.

Elder Taishang's "insulator" does not eat fireworks in the world on weekdays, and the dragon sees the head but does not see the end. Its identity is the symbol of Baiming Mountain, and its status is far above the head of Xuanjian, and its cultivation is unknown. As for why he is called "Elder Taishang"? That's just a name. In short, Yu Baiming Mountain is undoubtedly supreme.

After everyone finished worshipping, the head of the sect, Xuan Jian, respectfully said to the elder of the Dao Taishang: "I don't know that the master is coming, the disciple has missed the distance, and I ask the master to forgive the sin!"

It turned out to be the master who was in charge, so it was no wonder that everyone was so in awe.

"Hmm!" the insulator gave a quiet 'um'.

"I don't know how the master taught the disciple to get out of the crisis?" Xuanjian was shocked and frightened, but he was also overjoyed, thinking that the master suddenly came in the middle of the practice, there must be guidance, why not take the initiative to ask for advice!

"Everything in heaven and earth has a fixed number, you just need to follow the trend, you don't need other laws!"

"Homeopathy! Is there a better way than to join and unite?

"Needless to say, 'annexation' is certain to death! However, can 'unity' be able to work together? There must be gaps within the alliance, and if it is lured to take advantage, it can be disintegrated in an instant, so how can we talk about breaking the enemy?"

"This ...... What the master said, 'homeopathy', this 'trend'?"

"The way of heaven runs on its own trajectory! In the near future, a savior will come here, and the disaster of Baiming Mountain can be solved! This person will be able to dominate the eight rivers in time, become the master of this divine river, and solve the eternal calamity of living beings! This is an inevitable trend, and you cannot reverse it, so you must take advantage of the situation to help this person, and you must not have delusions! Remember!" After saying that, he went away like the wind, and disappeared in an instant.

"This ...... Can you tell the disciple what is the person's name?" shouted in the direction the insulator left.

"It's coming soon, and I'll know when the time comes! Remember the words of the teacher, and help her complete the great cause!" The insulator replied in the void of nowhere.

Xuanjian was lost for a while. I thought to myself, why did the master let himself help an outsider to unify the eight major rivers in Sichuan? In this way, if the eight rivers are unified, is there still the Baiming Mountain faction? What is this called a savior? What kind of master is that?

At the same time, the Grand Master, the Upper Elder, the Lower Elder, and the rest of the people were all deeply puzzled and couldn't solve it for a long time!

Everyone was silent for a long time before suddenly a sentence came out in unison:

"Congratulations to Elder Taishang!!"
