13. First acquaintance with Kunlun (II)

In the next half month, almost every day was a similar visit, study and life, listening to the two brothers and sisters tell stories and laugh by the way. The female disciples of the pen and the fun pavilion www.biquge.info felt more and more that the relationship between the two was unusual, but Huang Chang didn't see it that way, in his opinion, the relationship between Mu Ziqing and Chen Xiangrong was nothing more than a more familiar colleague relationship - after all, the two of them had been classmates and had grown up together for thirty years, how could they not be familiar.

The West Kunlun Mountains are steep, there are no roads at all in many places, and there are some small peaks that simply float independently in the air, connected with the main mountain of West Kunlun with huge iron chains or naturally generated vines - when Kunlun collapsed, in addition to breaking into five major bodies, there are many small peaks and boulders and the like that are broken and scattered everywhere, forming small peaks that float independently in the air, which are called Feilai Peaks.

Because these floating peaks were also part of the Kunlun Heavenly Pillar back then, the aura was sufficient, and it was an excellent place for cultivators to cultivate, as long as they were discovered for thousands of years, they were successively occupied by the various sects of immortal sects, and now it has become a convention - only by setting the dojo on the Feilai mountain peaks floating in the air can it be qualified to be called "immortal gates", otherwise it can only be called mortal Daomen.

The Western Kunlun Sect, on the other hand, is blessed with a huge main mountain range, as well as many of these independent small Feilai Peaks, most of which were collected in the early years - after all, they were closest to the collapse site and the Kunlun fragments were the closest to the water. There are also a few who later defeated the rival sect and captured the entire mountain peak dojo of the other party - there is usually not much conflict between the immortal sects. But once the war starts, it will be extremely cruel, not only will they have to kill all the disciples of the other party, but they will also have to drag the foundation of the dojo home, and they will really cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

It is conceivable that under such circumstances, there is simply no such thing as a "mysterious sect that is hidden in the world, with little reputation but is powerful" -- Matthew's law of the strong is as effective in this world. West Kunlun Mountain is powerful, and its reputation in the world is also the loudest, every time it accepts disciples, it can choose among the best seedlings, and it also has the most cultivation resources, including the largest floating mountain range in the world, and the most flying peaks - this is also a resource. Of course, the disciples cultivated in this way are also the most, and their influence is widely spread all over the world, and they can obtain more resources for the sect...... In such a positive cycle, its development will only get better and better.

Looking at today, there are only two so-called "giant sects" among the many immortal sects that can have such conditions: West Kunlun and East Qi Mountain, both of which are the advantages of Kunlun's lineage and have been accumulated for tens of thousands of years, and it is almost impossible to break them.

Secondly, there are a number of "large sects" that are only slightly inferior to the eastern and western sects in scale, but they often have a long history, and most of them were also founded by the immortal Taoist predecessors scattered on the Kunlun Mountain in the past - when the Kunlun Heavenly Pillar collapsed in the past, the monks who lived on the mountain were also divided into several parts, and the largest group still regarded themselves as Kunlun orthodoxy, which has been passed down to this day as the West Kunlun. Another group of sword cultivators who were good at swordsmanship separated and established the Qishan Sword School. But there are also many other high-minded and arrogant strong people who disdain to be in the company of others, and those who start their own sects constitute those second-class large sects. They also usually have one or two fairly large floating peaks, or several small hills connected to each other. In the human world, they often have a considerable sphere of influence, and even control a small country. In this way, they can select the best disciples within the scope of their control, and the Dao lineage and the like are still relatively stable.

Under the large sects, there are many more medium-sized sects, and their origins are complicated. Some of them are extremely lucky to have a chance to become a sect and become more powerful to the point where they can start a sect - and one of the most important conditions is to find a Feilai Peak that no one occupies, or simply snatch it from someone else - in the past 10,000 years, the latter is the majority.

However, the origins of more medium-sized sects are separated from the great sects such as West Kunlun - some of the high-ranking and powerful people in the sect are allowed to establish separate dojos or branches because of their great achievements or superior strength, or because of the need to control remote areas, and their Feilai Peak is supported by the big sects. Generally, it is required to be returned to the sect after the death of the person, and the strength of the inheritance disciples is not enough to keep the foundation. But if it can be inherited and stable after several generations, and there is enough strength to keep Feilai Peak all the time, then it can become a new sect.

These medium-sized sects are very satisfied if they can have one or two flying peaks, and some even have two or three families crammed into a floating mountain peak. The range of disciples they can choose is relatively narrow, like those in the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, they can definitely only find those who are left after the selection of West Kunlun. Huang Chang If they failed to pass the selection of Jinqiao, they would have the opportunity to continue cultivating immortals after they went back—that is, they would enter this kind of small and medium-sized sect. However, this is not necessarily a good thing, because the relationship between many small and medium-sized sects is too complicated: expansion, annexation, and attacking each other are not uncommon, and deceit is the norm. It is not easy to cultivate with peace of mind in such an environment, and due to the lack of resources and fierce competition, most of the disciples cultivated are also brave and ruthless, and the ability to cause trouble is far greater than the desire to cultivate immortals and become enlightened, and they often can't go far on the road of cultivation.

However, the middle sect is not the most pitiful - they have Feilai Peak, which can be regarded as an immortal sect officially recognized by the immortal cultivation world. Today's immortal cultivation world is relatively orderly because there are two giant behemoths and several major immortal sects working together to suppress it. Generally speaking, as long as you don't die by yourself, do something that is angry and resentful to attract group crusades, for those Feilai Peaks with clear ownership, it is very difficult for others to seize them - because this is an act of destroying the order of the Immortal Cultivation Realm, and the usurper has to face not only the strength of the target family, but also the powerful and powerful factions such as West Kunlun and Dongqi Mountain who establish and maintain this order!

And as long as Feilai Peak is still there, and the dojo is still built on the immortal mountain floating in the air, the inheritance of the sect will not be easily cut off, so most of these medium-sized sects have hundreds or even thousands of years of inheritance, as long as the disciples in the sect do not degenerate to the point that they do not even have the minimum ability to protect themselves, it is not a big problem to continue to pass on.

Therefore, when it comes to the bottom of the real hardships in the immortal cultivation world, there are still a number of small sects. This kind of small sect has no immortal mountain to rely on, and is not qualified to be called an "immortal gate", so it can only build a dojo in the mortal world, or open up a cave, or build a pavilion. There are no restrictions, their number is extremely large, and their strength is uneven, and even if it is just a new beginner who has learned a little bit of Taoism, he dares to call himself the master of the sect, but tomorrow he may be destroyed - the laws of the world cannot control these immortal cultivators, and the big sects don't care about their life and death at all. Therefore, what is fulfilled between these small sects is the real law of the jungle, whether it is the immortal cultivator or the sect itself, the mortality rate is extremely high, if there is not enough strength, it is common to spin up and down.

Of course, after so many years of struggle and elimination, the small sects that can survive so far are all strong. Either they have their own unique and powerful Dao secret techniques, or they have a big sect behind them as a backer, and some are even lucky enough to occupy the land with sufficient spiritual veins on the earth, recruit disciples, and develop rapidly, and their true strength is no longer under those traditional medium-sized sects. It's just that because he didn't fly to the peak, he could only be ranked among the small sects. And it is precisely this kind of sect that wants to stir up strife the most, staring at those weak immortal sects at all times, and trying to replace them as long as they have the opportunity.

- This is the current ecological situation of the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm, and it is also the main reason why Huang Chang often feels surprised and happy. I was surprised that the immortal cultivation world was so chaotic and complicated, and I was glad that I had finally found the biggest and toughest backer. In the future, even if you can't achieve much, you can stay on the path of cultivating immortals until the day when you can't go on, without worrying about encountering external threats.

In the previous life, Huang Chang was a law-abiding young man, hated chaos and pursued stability, and now he doesn't have much ambition, because he has been under the expectation of his family since he was a child, he embarked on this path of cultivating immortals, and he didn't expect to become an earth immortal saint ancestor or anything like that - after all, the immortal master said that his talent was limited.

In this life, Huang Chang just wants to be stable.
