Chapter 628: Immortals, Buddhas, Demons, and Forces
The ten holy lands are inextricably linked to each other, and their strength is also ranked in strength and weakness, for thousands of years, the Kunlun Holy Land has been firmly in the first place, the Tianlong Sword Pavilion is firmly in the second, and the Emei faction is mostly ranked third.
The two major religions are extremely strong, with many believers, sometimes above the Emei faction, and most of the time they rank fourth or fifth.
Followed by the Tianshan faction, the Jincang faction, the Tianmu faction, the Maoshan Gate, and the Hangu Gate, the Ding Dan Gate is not good at fighting because it focuses on Dan Dao cultivation, so the overall strength ranks last.
The ranking of the top ten holy places is not fixed all the time, since they are all cultivation sects, the best way to determine the ranking is to fight.
Therefore, in order to avoid losing money by fighting each other, a competition between holy places will be held every hundred years, and the ranking will be determined according to the results of the competition.
For a giant sect like the Holy Land, the name is extremely important, and it is related to the status of the entire cultivation realm, as well as the number of disciples it accepts.
The higher the ranking, the more cultivators will be willing to join, and disciples are the foundation of a sect, so the ranking is very important and even related to the life and death of the sect.
Moreover, the ranking also involves the distribution of mutual interests, for example, if a spirit stone vein is suddenly discovered together, it is necessary to distribute the benefits according to their different strengths.
A 100-year comparison is just a convention, not necessarily a 100-year comparison.
For example, one of the top ten holy places suddenly underwent a huge change, such as annihilation, splitting, etc., and the comprehensive strength can no longer be called a holy land, so it is natural to immediately organize a competition to determine the new ranking.
The Holy Land Ranking Contest is not only the top ten holy places that can participate, but all sects that have had Venerable Ascend to the Immortal are eligible to participate, and if their overall strength is stronger than the last sect, they will be promoted to the top ten holy places.
Therefore, the ten holy places of the ten holy places have been constantly changing over time, and the first five of them have been relatively stable, and the other five have changed from time to time.
For example, the Huashan faction was also one of the ten holy places at that time, but it was later divided into three sects, and it lost its qualification as a holy land.
Another example is the Hengshan faction, which used to be one of the top ten holy places, but it was lost by Yan zhòng in the Kyushu Fengzhen, and since then it has been in a state of collapse and cannot be called a holy land.
There are many huge sects like this, and there are thousands of sects in the land of Kyushu, not to mention that there are people from ten sects who have become immortals?
Nowadays, among the ten holy places, the Heavenly Dragon Sword Pavilion and the Tianmu Sect are the most special, the Heavenly Dragon Sword Pavilion is the only holy land sect that only practices the way of the sword, and the Tianmu Sect has only female disciples, not a single male disciple, so it is also known as the Fairy Holy Land.
Of course, not all sects that have ever been immortal are qualified to become holy land, in addition to some people becoming immortals, there is another extremely important rule, this sect must be a famous and decent sect, and the evil sect or the sect with a very bad reputation are not qualified.
Because of this, the Ten Holy Lands are not the ten strongest sects in the cultivation realm, there are also many extremely powerful evil sects and sects with a very bad reputation.
The comprehensive strength of these sects may not be comparable to the three holy lands of Kunlun, Tianlong, and Emei, but they are not necessarily worse than other holy lands.
For example, the Heavenly Maiden Sect, because of its emphasis on the cultivation of yin and yang dual cultivation and replenishment, has derived many Heavenly Maiden Pavilion Qing*Lou, so it cannot be listed as a holy land, and its comprehensive strength can rank in the top eight among the top ten holy lands.
For example, if you want to refine the sect, it is an authentic evil sect, and the methods in the sect are all methods that plunder the fruits of others, which can refine and devour others' Yuan Infant, Jin Dan, and demon pills, etc.
If its comprehensive strength is placed in the top five of the top ten holy places, but its method is too vicious, so naturally it cannot be ranked as a holy land.
There are many large sects like this, there will be light and darkness, this is an unbreakable truth, and the same is true in the cultivation realm, the boundary between good and evil is extremely clear, if the two camps of good and evil are strong and weak, I am afraid no one can say clearly.
Different from the sect forces, there are also some gathering forces, such as the East China Sea Immortal Alliance, which is a huge force formed by the gathering of countless sects on the islands of the East China Sea.
For example, Nine Stream City and Blood Moon City are both composed of some cultivators who have scattered or escaped from the sect, and their power should not be underestimated.
Whether it is the Ten Holy Lands, the first-class sects, or some evil sects and joint forces, they are all the forces of the cultivation realm, strictly speaking, they all belong to the Immortal Sect, and the Immortal Sect is the main body of the cultivation world, and the power is the largest and strongest.
In addition to the Immortal Sect, there are also Buddha Sects, Demon Sects, Demon Sects, and Martial Sects, and the Martial Sect is now sealed in the True Martial Xuan Realm, and few people know the true situation in it.
Although the individual forces of the Buddha Sect, the Demon Sect, and the Demon Sect are not comparable to the Immortal Sect, they must not be underestimated, and they occupy a pivotal position in the entire cultivation world.
The Demon Sect is actually the Body Refining Sect, and it is also a branch of the Immortal Sect, which was later divided into two and became independent. The Demon Sect also has many large sects, such as the Tiangang Sect, the Mixed Yuan Sect, and the Golden Body Sect, whose comprehensive strength is not much worse than that of the Ten Holy Lands.
Before Kyushu sealed the truth, Tiangangmen and the Mixed Yuan Sect were also one of the top ten holy places, and the Golden-winged Great Demon King came from Tiangangmen.
The Demon Sect is relatively scattered because the Demon Beast Spiritual Intelligence is difficult to open, and it is not as full of thousands of doors as the Immortal Sect, but once the Demon Sect opens the spiritual wisdom to cultivate to the highest realm, because they have natural supernatural powers, their strength is extremely strong, and they are a few points stronger than ordinary cultivators.
However, the Demon Sect is not without organized forces, otherwise the Demon Clan is full of treasures, and it will not be able to gain a foothold in the cultivation world at all. The Demon Sect has five major forces, namely the Ten Thousand Demon Cave, the Holy Beast Forest, the Heavenly Cave, the Golden Scale Sea, and the Taixu Nest.
The Ten Thousand Demon Cave is a treasure place for cultivation, gathering all kinds of demon beasts, tens of thousands, because there are many demon beasts, so the power is extremely strong.
The Holy Beast Forest is different from the Ten Thousand Demon Caves, the Holy Beast Forest gathers many rare and exotic beasts of the Demon Clan, all of which are demon beasts above the prefecture level, although the number of demon beasts is not as good as the Ten Thousand Demon Caves, but the comprehensive strength is not weaker than the Ten Thousand Demon Caves.
The Cave of the Heavens is located underground, which is the paradise of underground monsters, the Golden Scale Sea is the settlement of the Kraken, and the Taixu Nest is the nest of many birds, birds and beasts.
These five demon clan forces are only stronger than the ten holy lands, but the demon clan is originally of many races, each with its own living habits, it is difficult to integrate, even if it is gathered together, it is difficult to call, unless it is time of life and death, it will not join forces against the enemy.
Therefore, although the forces of the five demon clans are very strong, it is difficult to exert their overall strength.
In addition to these five major gathering forces in the demon clan, there are more demon king forces, and the demon king is equivalent to a lord, ruling the demon clan in a certain area, or ruling the demon clan of a certain race.
Buddhism is different from the Immortal Sect, the Demon Sect, and the Demon Sect, it is a religious form of cultivation force, and Mount Xu is the only holy place of Buddhism, which is no worse than the Holy Land of Kunlun, but Mount Xu is not in Kyushu, and it is not counted in the cultivation world of Kyushu.
In the Kyushu cultivation circle, Buddhism also has sects, but the form of Buddhism is temples, hanging temples, Putuo Temple, Famen Temple, Lingjing Nunnery and called the four major temples, and their status is equal to the ten holy places.
The vastness of the cultivation world is as simple as people imagine, and it is a huge cultivation world composed of countless overlapping, dislocation, and collusion of countless mystical spaces.
Among them, there are many sects and factions that contain each other, forming a huge world full of dangers, opportunities and challenges, and the wonderful aspects are beyond imagination.
Xiao Cheng listened to Ning Qianyu speak in a crisp and beautiful voice, pleasing to the eye and listening at the same time.
Although these things could only be regarded as common knowledge to most Holy Land disciples, they were not the case for him.
He knew about the Ten Holy Lands, the five major forces of the Demon Sect, the three major sects of the Demon Sect, and the four major temples of the Buddhist Sect, but he was not as organized and structured as Ning Qianyu said.
Ning Qianyu's words undoubtedly opened a vast and gorgeous picture scroll for him, and the general shape of the cultivation world became clear and three-dimensional in an instant.
After listening to Ning Qianyu's words, Xiao Cheng couldn't help but feel in his heart, 'Listening to Yixi's words is better than reading a book for ten years', knowing that these were specially told to him by Ning Qianyu, he was quite emotional...... What a good woman, which bastard is her sweetheart?
Ning Qianyu took a sip of wine to moisten her throat, her black and white beautiful eyes moved, and she played with the pigtails on the side of her face, revealing a thoughtful look, and said: "In addition to these big forces on the surface, there are also some hidden forces, such as some killer organizations.
These organizations are extremely shady, and few people know the location of their mountain gates, so few people know how strong their comprehensive strength is, and it is impossible to estimate.
By the way, there are also the ancient clans, the ancient clans, that is, the descendants of those immortals, demons, immortals, etc. left before the gods, they all have different powerful supernatural powers, and they are several times stronger than ordinary cultivators.
The ancient races all lived in the ancient realm, and the ancient realm was like a small world and a small world, and for these ancient clans, in their eyes, cultivators like us were mortals, just like we looked at ordinary people in the world.
The ancient clan rarely appears in the cultivation world, firstly, it is said that there is some kind of curse, and the ancient clan cannot die well after birth, and secondly, they are the second generation of gods, so they are naturally extremely proud and disdain to come to the cultivation world.
I don't know much about the ancient clan, the island owner must know it in detail, I heard the head master say that the island master can break through several ancient realms!"
Xiao Cheng was stunned, the island owner in Ning Qianyu's mouth was naturally his cheap senior sister Gu Qinghong, who had actually broken through several ancient realms.
Xiao Cheng suddenly remembered Xiao Suo's figure and resolute eyes when Gu Qinghong left the Taiyi Xuan Realm, could it be that this fierce senior sister went to the ancient realm to poke people again?
Ning Qianyu seemed to suddenly think of something, her beautiful eyes lit up, and then she was a little lost, and said: "Actually, the ancient clan doesn't look down on people so much, when the Taishan Immortal Tomb was opened, I saw a young and strong man of the ancient clan, he was very easy-going and easy to talk to, and I also encouraged him to chase my sister......
Hey, the result ...... As a result, she died in distress in the immortal tomb, and my sister was sad for a long time, and now my sister is disheartened and lazy to return to Kunlun.
You should have heard of this thing, and it is also rumored to be a good story, that person's name is Chen Xiao, and it is somewhat similar to your name. ”
