Volume 2: Zhongzhou Lost Butterfly Wings Spread Lightly, Hide Your Face and Ask Your Heart to Find Opportunities Chapter 17 A Powerful Dragon Set
Tang Xiaoguo's face was indignant: "If I tell you that the ruins were first discovered by our Qingling Sect, do you believe it or not?"
"What?" Qian Yang was shocked, and the boatload of people was also shocked.
Tang Xiaoguo pouted: "I know you don't believe it!"
This is indeed a bit unbelievable, how could the Qingling Sect find ruins under the sect of others? Or the Qingling Sect discovered the ruins before the establishment of the Infinite Valley, but how could it be possible for someone to open a sect on the ruins?
Tang Xiaoguo turned to the fat man and Chu Nan: "Two children from the Sword Grinding Hall, do you know the shocking battle between the Qingling Sect and the Shenliang Palace three hundred years ago?"
The two nodded: "This is naturally known!"
If a disciple of the Qingling Sect is lucky enough to enter the Grinding Sword Hall, he first needs to study the history of the sect, which is also the only way for the sect to improve the sense of belonging and loyalty of the disciples under the sect.
The battle three hundred years ago was called the battle of the rise of the Qingling Sect, and that battle was also the highlight of the Sword Grinding Hall. After that battle, the prestige of the three hundred yellow robes of the Grinding Sword Hall resounded throughout the world, causing the rest of the sects to tremble when they heard the name of the Grinding Sword Hall. In that battle, the Qingling Sect not only completely eliminated its old enemy, the Divine Liang Palace, but also established its supreme position in the eastern part of the Tianyuan Continent.
Such a landmark battle will naturally be written into history by the Qing Ling Sect and written in a big book. Every new disciple who entered the Sword Grinding Hall would be deeply affected by the brilliance of that battle and be proud of it. Luo Tong and Chu Nan, as excellent disciples of the Grinding Sword Hall, naturally would not be unfamiliar with that period of history.
"Do you know which was the most dazzling pearl in that battle?" Tang Xiaoguo asked again.
"That's naturally Elder Hongfei!" Chu Nan replied.
Indeed, Elder Hongfei, who was the hall master of the Grinding Sword Hall at the time, relied on the cultivation of the Jindan period to lead the three hundred Zhuji Yellow Robes to rely on the sect's large array to defend the Qingling Sect for four days and three nights, and then counterattacked in a big way, and frantically broke through the battle, stepping into the Yuan Infant Stage on the battlefield. Hongfei was already famous for his strong combat power, but after the breakthrough, he fought alone against the three Yuan Babies of the Divine Liang Palace, but he did not fall behind at all. With such an impressive record, it is not an exaggeration to say that he alone changed the course of a normal campaign. Then there is no doubt that the most dazzling pearl in that battle is naturally this Hongfei elder.
A boatload of people showed doubts on their faces, such a simple question, not to mention the fat man and Chu Nan, the two disciples of the Sword Grinding Hall, even if Qian Yang, who didn't hear anything outside the window, could answer it, they really didn't know why Miss Tang suddenly asked this.
But Tang Xiaoguo's next question, a boatload of people was left to stammer.
"Do you know what happened to Elder Hongfei after this battle?" Tang Xiaoguo clearly knew that these three fools would definitely not be able to answer.
"What's going on?" the three of them didn't know anything about this, because the sect's records never had anything about Elder Hongfei's aftermath of the war. However, no one would find this strange, because according to the convention, whenever someone in the Qingling Sect broke through to the Yuan Infant Stage, they would usually put down the sect's affairs and go to the back mountain to cultivate, and then disappear from the sight of ordinary disciples. Therefore, the disciples usually thought that after Elder Hongfei broke through, he should have lived in seclusion in the back mountain like everyone else, and as for the back mountain, it was another world that had nothing to do with ordinary disciples.
But Tang Xiaoguo actually mentioned this matter, could it be that there was another hidden meaning in it? Everyone's interest was aroused, but Tang Xiaoguo's expression dimmed: "Elder Hongfei was brutally suppressed after this battle, and finally ran away angrily, and has not been heard from since. ”
"Ah, why?" Chu Nan shouted anxiously.
In the expectant eyes of everyone, Tang Xiaoguo was silent for half a pillar of incense, and whetted everyone's appetite before slowly telling the reason for the matter.
In that war, the world was dull, and it was tragic and abnormal. In the end, the Shenliang Palace was completely erased, and its original site was even plowed into a valley as deep as a hundred feet. And it was this valley that was accidentally dug up that triggered a series of subsequent changes.
When Mojiantang was cleaning the battlefield after the war, he accidentally found a prehistoric antique in the valley. To say that that antique is not a good thing, that is, a few hundred spirit stones, it is really nothing, but the place where it appeared is very interesting.
At that time, it was an ordinary disciple of the Sword Grinding Hall who found this antique, saying that he was ordinary because this person's combat power was average, and he was only ranked more than four hundred in the Sword Grinding Hall, and he was not even qualified to wear a yellow robe, so naturally he had no chance to fight, and could only do chores to clean up the battlefield after the war.
However, idlers can't enter the Sword Grinding Hall, don't look at such an ordinary disciple who can't even fight, but if you get outside, it's also a first-class talent. And the most outstanding thing about this man is not his combat power, but his wisdom.
This disciple found an antique in the newly dug valley, and instantly realized that this matter was unusual, and did not make a noise at the moment, but secretly reported the matter to his immediate boss, Elder Hongfei. Elder Hongfei immediately went to check the scene where the antique was found, and immediately confirmed that it should be a prehistoric ruin buried underground.
The discovery of a ruin was a great achievement. This time not only fought a big victory, but also seized countless materials at the same time, there was such a big windfall. Elder Hongfei was overjoyed, and he also praised the disciple who found the antique.
By the way, by the way, the ordinary disciple who found the ruins who couldn't even get into a fight had a nice and loud name - Tang Qingyuan.
In fact, it doesn't matter what the name of that dragon set disciple three hundred years ago is, the important thing is that after Elder Hongfei returned to the sect with his great military exploits, he found that in addition to flowers and praise, there were some strange things that greeted him.
And the source of these strange things, in the final analysis, actually comes from Zhongzhou.
The Tian Yuan Continent is vast, and according to the habits of the monks, the entire continent can be roughly divided into five parts: southeast, northwest, and middle. And Zhongzhou is undoubtedly the core area of the True Tian Yuan Continent. The area of Zhongzhou accounts for most of the entire continent, and the heaven and earth here are full of spiritual energy, and it is also rich in resources, it is a golden area for cultivation, and other regions are barren compared to Zhongzhou, just like a penalty.
Legend has it that in ancient times, the first monk of mankind was born in Zhongzhou, which is the place where Xiuzhen originated. The monks from other parts of the continent have slowly migrated out of Zhongzhou in the long history. Of course, those monks who left Zhongzhou often had some unavoidable reasons, so they were forced to give up the favorable cultivation environment, and finally took root in the remote barren area, and struggled to inherit their own bloodline and cultivation system.
This is the case in the eastern part of the Tian Yuan Continent, where the monks here are actually descendants of Zhongzhou monks, or simply from Zhongzhou. In this way, the monks in the eastern part of the Tian Yuan Continent and Zhongzhou are actually inextricably linked, and this complicated relationship must also be mixed with intricate entanglements of interests.
The strength of Zhongzhou is far from being comparable to the eastern part of the Tianyuan Continent, and it can be seen from Zhongzhou's name for the eastern part of the Tianyuan Continent, in the mouth of the Zhongzhou monks, there is a very easy-to-remember name in the eastern part of the Tianyuan Continent - East Tomb.
The book says that the origin of this name is because the eastern part of the Tianyuan Continent is the place where the immortals are buried and the bones of the immortal emperors of the immortal realm, so it is called the East Tomb. But most monks believe that in fact, this name is because the eastern part of the continent is barren like a cemetery, and there is no future for cultivation here, and the cutting off of the immortal path is the only result, and it is completely the grave of the cultivator.
In any case, the eastern part of the Tian Yuan Continent was like a garbage dump in the eyes of the Zhongzhou monks, and the monks who couldn't get along in Zhongzhou would often be sent here like garbage, and then the waste would be used to squeeze out their last value.
As for how to squeeze out the surplus value? After many years of practice, everyone has found that it is a good way to establish a sect in the Eastern Tomb. After all, the power of the sect is far stronger than that of individuals, and the power of the sect can always gather some resources, and then give back these resources to Zhongzhou, which is a large amount of resources for Zhongzhou, which is also a small supplement for Zhongzhou, which has deep pockets. Of course, for those monks who have contributed to the sect or family in Zhongzhou, they will not hesitate to give them a chance to return to Zhongzhou to gain a foothold.
In the long run, most of the sects in the eastern part of the Tianyuan Continent will have some Zhongzhou background, and Shenliang Palace, as the most powerful sect in the eastern part of the Tianyuan Continent before, is indispensable for the support of a certain force in Zhongzhou.
In fact, such as the Divine Measurement Palace is the norm, and the Qingling Sect is like an outlier compared to it.
Although Qing Lingzi, the founder of the Qing Ling Sect, is also from Zhongzhou, he has already cut off all kinds of ties with Zhongzhou, and he can be regarded as a self-made man. But if a sect wants to gain a foothold and develop, it is inevitable that some interests will be exchanged that cannot be put on the table, especially after the Qinglingzi Xianyou, the fat of the Qingling Sect, many people want to take a bite.
Compared with those behemoths in Zhongzhou, the strength of the Qingling Sect is not good, and compromise is inevitable, and one by one the monks with Zhongzhou background slowly joined the sect and gradually gained a lot of authority. At the time of the war with the Shenliang Palace Sect, the high-level of the Qingling Sect had already been divided into descendants and elders with foreign surnames, and those elders with foreign surnames were actually the spokespersons of different forces in Zhongzhou in the Qingling Sect.
Elder Hongfei became famous in the first battle, but it also made the Qingling Sect stand on the cusp. The interests involved behind such a big sect of the Divine Liang Palace are unimaginable to ordinary people at all, such a powerful force can be destroyed if you say that it can be destroyed? The behemoth behind it can be provoked by a country turtle in your Qingling Sect?
This is also the suddenness of the incident, no one could have imagined that the Qingling Sect, which was obviously at a disadvantage, would succeed in a battle, otherwise the Shenliang Palace would casually invite a few decent characters from Zhongzhou to sit in the town, and you Hongfei would still be able to go to heaven?
The Shenliang Palace carelessly buried its thousand-year-old foundation, and the forces behind it were also beyond remorse. But the matter has come to this point, and it is impossible to redeem it, after all, big things also have big opponents, and many people are standing on the sidelines and watching their jokes happily.
But it's absolutely impossible, the face that falls on the ground must be picked up, otherwise wouldn't any cat or dog dare to be wild in front of them?
How do you pick up face? It's very simple. If you take my things, you have to spit them out for me, and then you have to pay me another money! The person who killed me can't be saved, but you have to pay me money!
Lose money! Lose money!
This earth-shattering battle that has been praised by the Qing Ling Sect for eternity, and the final result is actually the most complete with a sky-high indemnity. Qingling Sect returned all the seizures, and also paid a large amount of resources.
The behemoth's appetite is unimaginable, this indemnity not only wiped out the family wealth accumulated by the Qingling Sect for more than a thousand years, but even forced the Qingling Sect to promise a share of the income for the next three hundred years, and the newly discovered hidden ruins were not preserved in the end, after all, even that piece of land belonged to others, and it was definitely impossible to hide it, so there was a new sect there-Wuliang Valley.
All transactions were carried out under the table, and there were very few people who knew the details, and of course, these few people must include the shining pearl of this battle, Elder Hongfei.
Hongfei really couldn't accept the result of the victor having to pay a sky-high compensation, and under the pressure, something hidden somewhere in his soul was touched, and he suddenly had doubts about the way of heaven, and his state of mind also cracked. In the end, Hongfei chose to go away to find the way of heaven in his mind.
This battle gradually came to an end with Hongfei's departure, and Zhongzhou took the spirit stone, leaving the Qing Lingzong with the false name of the victor.
The Qingling Sect emptied the resources of the sect and paid the benefits of the next three hundred years, but it unexpectedly became the first sect in the eastern part of the continent, so that no one dared to wipe its edge lightly. Although the Qingling Sect was short of resources due to a large amount of compensation, and its strength was deteriorating, it also gained a rare and stable strategic space.
The world is unpredictable, and no one could have imagined the outcome of this battle beforehand. And for the Qingling Sect, whether this battle is a loss or a gain, even three hundred years later, it is difficult to say clearly.
But don't forget, there is one person who has personally experienced this whole process, and that is a certain disciple of the dragon set surnamed Tang, and now, with his extraordinary ability, he has already grown into a glorious dragon set leader. We have reason to believe that he should have an account in his heart.
Today, the three-hundred-year account is about to be repaid, judging from the recent performance of the head of the dragon set, I am afraid that it is time to settle the account, and Tang Xiaoguo's trip to the ruins can actually be regarded as a tough test before the liquidation.
"Why do you want to tempt?" The fat man asked the doubt in his heart: "Since the strength is not as good as others, and it is not easy to pay off the account, so you will honestly make a fortune, why bother to provoke others again?"
"It's not that simple!" Tang Xiaoguo shook his head: "If you don't provoke others, won't they provoke you?" The Qingling Sect has provided for them for three hundred years, and then suddenly one day the supply is cut off, do you think they will give up like this?"
Qian Yang showed a thoughtful look: "What does the master mean?"
