Chapter 109: A New Era of Clouds and Dragons
Under strong oppression, everyone has the right to choose to avoid and retreat.
It's not unusual for the Golden Bottle True Monarch to do this, she just chose the measures that are most beneficial to herself.
Struggle comes at a cost, and it takes courage to fight – especially against social conventions that have always been honored.
Can the clouds blame her?
No, the clouds don't blame her, he's an extreme egoist, he only demands himself - he only has the right to demand himself. So others choose to escape, and others don't give him a thick leg hug...... The clouds are indifferent.
So, he walked through Luoshi Valley without stopping for a moment and entered Chaoyang Peak of Xuantianmen.
In Chaoyang Peak, a valley controlled by Jinyang and Jinke, he didn't stop at all, he knew that if he didn't even come forward with the golden bottle, he was not qualified to ask Jinyang Jinshi to come forward to uphold justice, so he went straight to the Xuantian Ziyang Peak in the center of the Xuantian Gate.
When he stepped on the purple bee, Yun Duo's heart was calm, and he remembered an epitaph engraved on the inscription - when they came to arrest the workers, I did not protest; When they came to arrest the Jews, I was silent; When they came to get me...... There is no one left to speak for me.
The head of the house, Qingsong Zhenren, was not there, and Jinhui Zhenjun, who was in charge of affairs, greeted Yunduo's visit with an expressionless face.
Seeing the clouds saluting him one by one, Jin Hui couldn't help but see the appearance of the clouds for the first time, at that time the clouds were still a little fat boy, only ten years old, short legs and short feet, full of cute and childish faces. Now that I haven't seen him for five years, Yun Duo has become slender, completely a handsome young man, and the aura exuded from his body is no longer ignorant, but chic and free, and imposing.
Aggressive?...... Jin Hui's pupils shrank.
At present, Yun Duo is still a qi practitioner, a qi practitioner of the "green character generation".
Five years is long enough, the qi practitioners in the sect have changed a stubble, the first group of foundation building monks who stayed in Jieyang Town, under the conscious arrangement of Jin Hui, most of these insiders have withered, and now only a few monks left in the Iris Valley are still alive, and the rest of the foundation building period monks have basically fallen for various reasons.
Therefore, the secret of the clouds, except for a few Yuanying Zhenjun who know about it, the other monks don't even know this real person who appeared in the door for the first time.
Jin Hui's gaze swept over Su Zhi, his pupils changed slightly, and he said with a dry smile: "It turns out that Su Zhi has already built a foundation, haha, then you shouldn't be called 'Su Zhi', there should be a ranking of Bizi generations......
Oh, yes, your golden cicada in the Iris Valley is now in retreat to recuperate, and the direct master does not come forward, which makes us miss a foundation master...... Well, when did Su Zhi build the foundation, why didn't anyone report me. ”
Without waiting for Su Zhi to answer, Jin Hui immediately laughed dryly and added: "Su Zhi, the qi practitioner has the moon of the qi practitioner, and the foundation building period has the foundation building period, you are already in the foundation building period, and you still take the qi practitioner's moon and lu, which makes me very embarrassed - how can you be like this, why didn't you say it earlier?"
Su Zhi lowered her eyebrows and was pleasing to her eyes, standing behind Yun Duo without saying a word, Yun Duo looked at Jin Hui with a smile, only smiling and not speaking.
Jin Hui secretly sighed: I think back then, this little fat boy saw how respectful I was, and he looked flattering and obedient, but now he is so generous...... It's hard to bully.
In fact, for the clouds and the iris valley, the golden emblem has always paid attention. For Su Zhi beside Yunduo, Jin Hui also knows very well. When Yun Duo returned to the mountain, because of Jin Duo's first order, and Jin Hui was somewhat selfish, he deliberately simplified the entry procedures for Yun Duo, and even Su Zhi by Yun Duo's side was also covered.
At the beginning, under the hint of Jin Hui, the Sect Discipline Hall and the Festival Hall connived at Qingshu to arrange the entrance procedures for the clouds, and Su Zhi, who returned to the door with the clouds, was also included. Now in the sect's disciple register, she is still a qi refining level cultivator, and she has been performing sect tasks. The mission of this sect is to protect and watch over the clouds.
Qi cultivators are basically people on the periphery of the sect, and they are also unable to undertake the tasks of the heavy sect. As a result, the group is largely free-range. It is run by the major forces and factions themselves. Generally speaking, as long as they don't look for trouble themselves, it is easy for sect elders to ignore their existence.
But Su Zhi couldn't ignore it...... Jin Hui suddenly remembered the past.
In the past, Su Zhi's cultivation progressed rapidly, and Jin Hui had been paying close attention to Su Zhi, what shocking secrets were hidden in a Su Zhi...... Unexpectedly, with the five years of seclusion of the clouds, Su Zhi also lurked.
Jin Hui was puzzled.
He knew exactly why Yun Duo walked out of the Cicada Courtyard, especially at this sensitive moment. It's just that some people in the sect are jealous and want to include the workshop of Bixi and Biliu, so they have set an impossible task for this.
Iris Valley has been neglected in the past five years, and the immortal cultivation resources allocated to them in the door are often misappropriated, so Iris Valley can't afford to lose the two major workshops, and in order to keep the workshop, Qingshu has worked hard in many ways. But Qingshu failed, and the sect mission was sent down, so Irisu Valley changed people to mediate - the clouds went out.
Was this helpful?
The two major workshops competing for the Iris Valley, Jin Hui is the one in the know. He doesn't have to come forward, the workshop he took back must have his share of interests, and it is the largest benefit, this is an unspoken rule, who makes him the biggest in the sect now?
But this thing...... It's a bit despicable after all. Jin Hui still has a sense of shame, so he wants to ease the atmosphere and make this big thing small and trivial...... But why don't the clouds cooperate?
What else does Yun Duo do or how to do it, he has to answer all questions, but that's all, just don't talk about the topic to the workshop. And Su Zhi looks like a good baby, waiting for the master's instructions at any time. She kept her head down and didn't speak, and his master Yun Duo ...... Obviously, he is now a qi practitioner, but when facing Yuanying Zhenjun, his momentum is not weak at all.
What courage is that?
Jin Hui didn't know that although Yun Duo was a qi practitioner, his divine sense came from the second person in the sect - Jin Xiang Zhenjun.
Jin Xiang Zhenjun's original cultivation was far more advanced than Jin Hui Zhenjun, and his divine sense was also greater than that of Jin Hui Zhenjun. Therefore, the momentum of the Golden Emblem True Monarch can't overwhelm the clouds. And Yunduo had always wanted to hide himself, but now he decided not to hide it.
In this jungle society, backing down will only make people feel weak and bullied.
Therefore, Yun Duo kept smiling faintly, watching the golden emblem ease the atmosphere. He was a qi practitioner, and he was supposed to be humble and humble in front of Yuanying Zhenjun, but his waist was straight—like the first time Su Zhi saw her.
Jin Hui had to continue to be speechless.
Just now, Jin Hui blamed the other party for his work mistakes, blaming Su Zhi for not telling him that he had entered the foundation building, which was a reminder that the other party must respect the power in his hands.
I have the right, and the mistake that you didn't get for many years was not committed by me. Even if I do something wrong, I have the right to say that it is your fault.
But...... Yun Duo didn't respond, just smiled, didn't admit or deny, and waited for the other party to say a solution...... Jin Hui to Yun Duo was sweating from this attitude.
The superior asks the question, do you have the consciousness of being a humble being? You don't answer or speak, do you know that your attitude makes me very embarrassed?
Jin Hui had nothing to say and casually asked about the progress of Yunduo's cultivation, knowing that Yunduo was waiting for the opportunity to build a foundation, he could only ask the other party to be diligent...... When all the topics that could be thought of were finished, Jin Hui found that the clouds had not yet left, and he had to talk about something substantial-he had to give the other party some dry goods.
"Qingzhu, you don't know, I got the latest news yesterday, I heard that the Luo Elephant of Fangcun Mountain was the first to barely support his body and went to the demon beast jungle, and his whereabouts are unknown due to serious injuries recently......
It is said that the great monk of Hehuan Dao has fallen, the seven-grade alchemist of the Danxia Sect has disappeared, and the Huasheng Temple has lost another great Bodhi, in addition, I have heard that among the four major sects, the Jindan monks have lost hundreds, and now these four major sects can be described as a great loss of vitality......
Yun Duo forcibly interjected: "Is this the reason for the reopening of the Xuantian Secret Realm?"
Jin Hui was startled, he was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but be secretly heartbroken by the sensitivity of the clouds.
Well, it can't be hidden.
Jin Hui nodded: "I've always wondered why Hehuan Dao also wants to participate in the war, it's none of their business, they have always liked to stay out of the matter, but this time they are so active in muddy waters, that even the Yuan Hou Great Monk in their own faction has fallen."
I investigated carefully, and found that before the battle of Hehuandao, a monk from Taiyuemen came to visit...... Do you know anything about Taiyuemen? Has Qingshu introduced you? Okay, I won't talk about these side gossip, and you can inquire slowly for yourself in the future. I only tell you: people praise us as the Five Great Sects, but in fact we are only the second-rate Five Great Sects, and there is a Emperor Taishang above us.
Now, the Emperor Taishang has spoken, so Hehuan Dao can only participate in the war. Fortunately, the meaning of this requirement to participate in the war is not the meaning of the entire sect of Taiyuemen, but the opinion of someone in Taiyuemen, so the people who preside over this matter are still taboo, they dare not act openly, and I Xuantianmen......
Oh, I've ordered the sect to shrink its power, forbidding its subordinates to go out, and recently the sect's missions have all been abandoned. In addition, our connection with Jieyin Town and Baicang City was completely severed, and Pingxi City also made it impossible for the other party to find a chance to start...... But that's not enough.
Our state of retreat and self-defense can't last long, Hehuan Dao, Danxia Sect, Huasheng Temple, and Fangcun Mountain, together with us are called the five major sects, and now the remaining four sects have suffered heavy losses, and the loss of one Yuan Yuan in Hehuan Dao is equivalent to being removed from the five major sects, which is equivalent to falling to a third-rate sect, and then the immortal sect will definitely surge. And we're alone, Qingqi, do you think it's possible?
The disappearance of Luo Xiang, the great monk of Fangcun Mountain, and the fall of the monk of Hehuan Dao, this is such an earth-shattering event. Our ranking is equivalent to jumping to the top of Fangcun Mountain all at once. Will Taiyuemen sit idly by and watch this happen? Because we don't go to war, we benefit, how can that person from Taiyuemen explain to his comrades?
The most important thing is: the battle in the Demon Beast Forest can't go on, after two yuan less, the strength of the demon beast will rise sharply, and the beast tide may break out at any time, in order to increase the combat power in the Demon Beast Forest, in order to explain to the combatants, in the next step, someone will definitely come forward and force me to participate in the battle - we can't avoid this.
It is said that in the demon beast jungle, there are demon beasts who have obtained the Du'er Dan, the Qingding Pill, and the Shengyun Pill...... These pills are very beneficial to the doom and tribulation after turning into gods, and it is rumored that there are demon beasts who have not had time to take the pills, and some participants have found these pills from the corpses of demon beasts, so they have cultivated to make great progress. As for the demon beasts, it is said that they have begun to fight against the same enemy, and countless high-level demon beasts have emerged, these demon beasts don't know when they advanced, and their number is outrageous, so that the four major sects can't resist it.
Among them, the Qingding Pill and the Ascending Cloud Pill can increase the chance of the Great Monk of the Yuan Dynasty by one-third when entering the Transformation God, and the Du Erdan can reduce the difficulty of crossing the tribulation by any level. These pills are rare through the ages, and in order to win these pills, it is worth risking your life. So recently, the price of the outside elixir talisman and so on has skyrocketed.
However, although the price of these things has grown, the raw materials are becoming more and more scarce - without him, the demon beast forest is in a mess, and now even the hunting team formed by the Jindan monks does not dare to enter the forest lightly. So, you know, for the sake of the big picture, there are some things that have to be given up, and some things have to be backed off...... Do you understand?"
For whose big picture?
Yun Duo sneered slightly.
What Jin Hui didn't say was: As long as Taiyuemen tells Jin Duo the news of the pill, I'm afraid Jin Duo won't be able to resist this temptation, so he agrees to Xuantianmen to participate in the war. And once Jin Duo decides to participate in the battle of the Xuantian Gate, the next thing that the Xuantianmen needs to consider is: how to preserve the vitality of the sect.
At this time, the sect opened the Spiral Heaven Secret Realm and selected the most promising seed players from all walks of life to enter the secret realm to experience,...... As well as hiding. After a year, the Spiral Heaven Secret Realm opened again, allowing the people inside to come out...... No matter what the situation is outside, at least the best talents of the Spiral Gate can be preserved.
Of course, people are selfish, Jin Hui presides over this work, and the seed players he selects, of course, are mainly based on their own preferences, and by the way, add some candidates who can't give up the sect, such as Yun Duo, such as Su Zhi...... The latter is mainly to look at the face of the clouds.
It is no wonder that Jin Hui's proposition can be supported by Jinyang, Jinke, and Jinshi, and it seems that everyone is taking precautions, but because of the existence of Taiyuemen, those who know have to be killed and do not say anything, and those who do not know can not figure out the roots, and only see some cronyism on the bright side, excluding dissidents.
Yun Duo sighed softly, and he stood up beside him and said, "Tomorrow, I'll go to the library pavilion." ”
Jin Hui replied quickly: "You don't need to tell me about this, the token on your body can allow you to enter and leave any part of the library...... Oh, I'm wondering, how did you keep your doors shut for the first five years...... Haha, what can be learned behind closed doors. ”
Yun Duo, who stood up, paused for a moment, and asked calmly: "I heard that the sect has decided to increase the task of handing in the elixir and magic weapon of the Iris Valley. ”
Jin Hui sighed: "Alas, the sect is also facing a critical juncture now, Qingzhu, I still say the same thing: You iris valley must focus on the overall situation." ”
Yun Duo immediately asked: "Is the 'overall situation' of the sect 'only' related to Iris Valley?"
Jin Hui choked for a moment, his face sank, the coercion of the Yuanying Monk emanated, and Su Zhi on the opposite side suddenly knelt on the ground, but her waist was still straight, and Yun Duo stood straight, calmly asking: "Does this overall situation still have anything to do with other peaks and valleys?"
The coercion of the golden emblem is slightly receiving.
Because now in the sect, the three Yuanying monks such as Jin Duo, Duan Jin, and Jin Chan have entered a state of retreat, and he Jin Hui is the first person in the sect. If this coercion lasted for a long time, the nearby monks would not be able to stand it. This is the place where Ziyang Bee, a qi practitioner and a foundation building monk come and go, and he can't be an enemy of the whole sect.
After retracting the coercion of the Yuanying, Jin Hui found that not a drop of sweat appeared on the corner of the cloud's forehead, and he didn't even feel the resistance of the cloud, which made Jin Hui stunned for a moment - a qi practitioner can also resist the coercion of the Yuanying monk? This is unreasonable!
However, Jin Hui Zhenjun hasn't studied it in detail yet—there are many major things in the sect, and this little thing is not worth bothering about.
The cloud on the opposite side still remained dead, and immediately added calmly: "How much resources did Iris Valley share every month in the past, and how much is it now?...... Of course, Ancestor, I can also understand this, after all, my teacher Jin Cicada Zhenjun can't use those resources for the time being, so we won't fight if the sect allocation is less, but let's increase the offerings, just let us increase the offerings, this, I think......
I don't think the ancestor was deceived by the people below, and the amount of weight they asked for was too much. ”
The majesty of Yuanying Zhenjun cannot be challenged.
If this is said by someone else, Jin Hui Zhenjun may snap his fingers and completely kill the person who spoke. But it was said by the clouds...... Well, the role of clouds is not as important as it used to be.
Now that the Yuanhou Great Monk of Fangcun Mountain is missing, the Yuanhou Great Monk of Hehuan Dao has fallen, and the Yuanhou Great Monk of Xuantianmen is still there, and now even if Jin Duo has an accident, everyone has no Yuanhou Great Monk, and other people in Xuantianmen can also support the sect, so the clouds are not so indispensable.
But...... Jin Hui endured it, but still nodded in agreement: "Okay, the people below are really not interested, since your supply has been reduced, how can I ask you to increase the offerings? Let me tell them, your offerings will never increase, as for the reduced monthly income...... , this, since you understand, then I won't say more. ”
Jin Hui Zhenjun showed the meaning of sending off, and the clouds were not entangled, he nodded at Jin Hui Zhenjun, and walked out of Jin Hui Zhenjun's cave mansion flatly.
Standing in front of the cave of Jinhui Zhenjun, Yun Duo looked up at the sky, he stood in place for a long time, and calmly sighed: "The wind is surging!"
In fact, Yunduo wants to say: a great era is coming.
Su Zhi didn't speak, she followed behind the clouds, and silently added: "The wind is full of clouds, the clouds are rising, and the dragons are turning into ......."
However, Su Zhi didn't say anything, she came to Qinglin's residence step by step - this real person is one of the few acquaintances Yun Duo met in Jieyang Town, Yun Duo, who has not left the house for five years, happened to visit acquaintances one by one this time. R1152
