"I can't live this day!" Ouyang Benlei said with an account book, "Since the establishment of that Chu State Cultivation Alliance, the income of this sect has begun to drop significantly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIt's only been a few months now, and the income has been halved compared to usual. If this happens, the sect will not be able to sustain itself!"

Wan Ai said quietly: "You're okay." My Tiandu faction is the closest to Tianji Mountain, and the loss is also the greatest. The current income is not even 30% of what it used to be. ”

The Dragon Slayer Island Lord, the Hundred Flowers Fairy, and Chang Run were all there, and they also angrily denounced the Chu State Xiuzhen Alliance.

It turned out that since the establishment of the Xiuzhen Alliance, in just a few months, nearly ninety percent of the scattered cultivators and small and medium-sized Xiuzhen families in the Chu State have been recruited, and nearly half of the large Xiuzhen families have also joined this alliance, making the Xiuzhen Alliance suddenly become a behemoth with tens of thousands of low-level monks and industries all over the country.

Although the members of the Xiuzhen Alliance are all low-level cultivators, there are very few in the foundation building period, and their combat effectiveness is not good. But they are numerous, and they control many industries.

In the past, the six major sects relied on exploiting them to maintain their position, but now they have their own faction, and they have stripped those industries out of the six major sect system, and the income of the six major sects has naturally dropped sharply.

Originally, those low-level cultivators of the Xiuzhen Alliance were not in the eyes of the six major sects, and a few Jindan monks could be exterminated by sending a few Jindan monks. However, the leader of this Xiuzhen Alliance is the head of the Heavenly Machine Sword Sect, who would dare to provoke them easily?

In the past, the six major factions all purchased various cultivation resources from those scattered cultivation and cultivation families at a low price, processed them, and then sold them at a high price. Most of the low-level monks do not have the ability to deeply process the cultivation materials, so they can only admit this.

This is all good, but the most frustrating thing is the ingenuity of these gate parties against low-level monks.

Low-level monks often can't keep what elixir or mineral veins they find. Either they will be bought at a low price by these gatekeepers, or they will be taken away. There are not a few low-level monks who are innocent and guilty, and there are not a few low-level monks who are destroyed because they refuse to take out good things.

But now that these low-level cultivators have the backing of the Heavenly Machine Sword Sect, these major sects have to weigh and weigh if they want to make trouble.

The Heavenly Machine Sword Sect and the Chu State Xiuzhen Alliance are a partnership, not a superior-subordinate relationship. The benefits that Tianji Mountain reaped from the Xiuzhen Alliance were less than one-third of the six major factions. This is already an unexpected windfall for Shang Bai. And for those low-level cultivators of the Xiuzhen Alliance, the Heavenly Machine Sword Sect was simply synonymous with justice.

The area of the Tianji Martial Arts Hall has been upgraded to Tianji City, and there is a Fang Market jointly developed by the Tianji Sword Sect and Shenjiazhuang in Tianji City, and now it has become the largest trading market in the cultivation realm of the Chu State.

The Heavenly Machine Sword Sect and Shenjiazhuang purchased a large amount of raw materials at a low price from here, while the low-level cultivators of the Xiuzhen Alliance bought pills, magic weapons, and even cultivation exercises that were more than half cheaper than elsewhere.

For them, it's a win-win situation. But for the six factions that were squeezed out of the game, it hurt a lot.

The current policy of the Xuanji faction is to endure and endure ruthlessly. I don't know how powerful the Five Factions Alliance is, but I feel that it is unbearable now.

The source of life was robbed, so it was bearable. After all, cultivation is a long job, and it can be maintained even if you can't recruit disciples for decades. However, the cultivation resources have also been robbed so much, but it is unbearable. What the cultivation sect lacks most is never people, but all kinds of cultivation resources. If there is no aura, no spirit stones, no refining materials, and no elixir, no matter how good the qualifications are, no matter how good the exercises are, they will not be able to cultivate anything.

Cultivation is the most resource-intensive work in the world, and there is no development without resources. The current approach of the Heavenly Machine Sword Sect and the Xiuzhen Alliance can be said to have curbed the development of the Five Factions Alliance. The most miserable Tiandu faction is now using its old book to maintain the cultivation needs of its disciples.

"You can't let Tianji Mountain continue to be so arrogant. The more it drags on, the stronger they will be, and the weaker we will be. The Dragon Slayer Island Lord said with a solemn face, "In this way, in a few decades, we will not even be qualified to fight him." ”

"That's true. Chang Run nodded and said, "The Heavenly Machine Sword Sect doesn't talk about the rules of the game at all, so it is to squeeze the same way, I think it is to dominate the Chu State." We can only take advantage of the fact that its wings are still not full, and work together to break it. Otherwise, there will be no chance in the future. ”

"Fight! we must defeat it!" Wan Ai said viciously, "It's too late to do it now!"

"It's okay for the Heavenly Machine Sword Sect. The Hundred Flowers Fairy frowned and said, "There is also a Xuanji faction behind them, but it's a trouble." ”

Although the Xuanji faction married a Baguio fairy, it is still the number one faction in the cultivation realm of the Chu State, and the alliance of the five factions is somewhat scruples.

Of course, they didn't know that the Xuanji Sect actually hated the Heavenly Sword Sect so much, and they could only infer that the two had formed an alliance from the marriage of the two families.

"They're a nuisance...... "Dragon Slayer said, "but no matter how troublesome it is, it's going to be a problem." We are no worse than they are together. And as long as we can cripple the Heavenly Machine Sword Sect all at once, with the character of the two old foxes of the Xuanji Sect, I don't dare to do anything. If this thing is done, the future cultivation realm of the Chu State will be up to us. ”

Thinking of the bright prospect of controlling the entire Chu State Cultivation Realm in the future, the eyes of the people present were red, and they all shouted: "Do it, don't be cowardly, just do it with them now!"

After yelling, Ouyang Benlei said, "So, how are we going to do it with them?"

After the Tianji Sword Sect opened a sect, Shang Bai still went to the Tianji Martial Arts Hall once every half a month to teach students, but his main focus was on those inner disciples.

Those disciples were all carefully selected by him, and although their current cultivation is very low, their qualifications are extraordinary, and their development prospects are very good. Cultivating them and holding them in their hands is the foundation of Shang Bai's future foothold in the Yunmeng Continent.

On this day, Shang Bai was explaining to the disciples of Taibai Peak some problems that often occurred in the process of cultivating the Imperial Sword Technique, when someone suddenly came to report: "Sect Leader, the lonely elder of the Mangshan Sect has arrived in Tianji City and asked to see the Sect Leader." ”

"You take him to Yingxian Temple, and I'll go over later." Shang Bai commanded. But he muttered in his heart: "What happened to them sent by Mangshan? I don't think it should be a good thing, right?"

At the beginning, Ouyang Benlei, the head of the Mangshan faction, gave him an extinction bell on the good day of opening a sect in Tianji Mountain, which made Shang Bai very unhappy, and he had already planned to destroy his sect. Dugu Yi is an elder of a faction, and it stands to reason that he should be met in the Sanqing Palace. But he was very unhappy with this sect, so he asked his disciples to bring Dugu Yi to Yingxian Temple to wait for him.

Shang Bai then gave another half an hour of lectures before he got up and went to the Yingxian Temple under Qi Tian Peak. Duguyi has been waiting there for a long time.

After greeting each other, Shang Bai said: "Since the Double Ninth Festival last year, there has been no contact with your faction. I don't know what Dugu Daoist has to teach this time?"

Dugu said: "I don't dare to give advice." I just obeyed the order of the head brother of this faction and came to invite Tianji Daoist friends to Qifengling on August 15. ”

Shang Bai sighed and smiled, "Why?"

"Last year, Chongyang, the peak of Qitian Peak, Tianji Daoyou once expressed to my senior brother the desire to learn skills, but at that time it was a good day for your sect to start a sect, and my senior brother did not agree, and I have always regretted it. "Dugu is different," now he wants to make up for this regret, so he sent down to invite Tianji Daoist friends. On August 15th, my senior brother will wait for the master of Tianji Daoist friends at the top of Luoxia Peak in Qifengling to discuss the road of Xiuzhen. I wonder if there is that Yaxing among the Heavenly Fellow Daoists?"

"It's naturally a very good thing to be able to talk to Ouyang Zhangjiao during the Mid-Autumn Festival, how could I not agree?" Shang Bai smiled, "Trouble Dugu Daoist replied, just say that I said it in Tianjizi, August 15, see you or leave." ”

After sending Duguyi away, Shang Bai found Yang Tai, told him about it, and asked him: "I challenged him in Qi Tianfeng last year, but he didn't dare to fight, but now he takes the initiative to challenge me, do you think there is any mystery in this? Last year, I challenged him in front of so many people, but he didn't dare to agree." Why did he take the initiative to challenge me again? Could it be that he has something to rely on in the past six months?"

"Half a year, it won't be able to rely on much, right?" Yang Tai frowned and thought for a long time, and said: "Last year was in the territory of our Heavenly Machine Sword Sect, and he didn't know the depth of teaching you, so he naturally didn't dare to fight. Now he chose the address in a place not far from their Mangshan, taking advantage of the home field, once there is something, he can send all the support, naturally he is more bold. ”

"Could it be that he now knows my depth and is sure he can defeat me?" Shang Bai looked disdainful.

"Since he refused to take charge of your challenge last year, his reputation in the Chu State Cultivation Realm has plummeted. If he wants to save his reputation, he must overcome you. Yang Tai explained, "Whether he is sure or not, he has to do it." Otherwise, he would not be able to gain a foothold in the cultivation realm of the Chu State. ”

"But if he really loses to me, won't he be even more unable to gain a foothold in the Chu State Cultivation Realm?"

Therefore, he took the initiative to challenge this time, and he must have the absolute certainty of defeating the master. ”

"For example?" Shang Bai asked.

"For example—" Yang Tai said, "he will set a trap for you in Qi Fengling." ”

"Well, it's possible. Shang Bai thought for a while and said to Yang Tai: "Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles." Elder Yang, I am not as good as you in the collection of intelligence, so please help me inquire about this matter. ”

"No problem. Yang Tai agreed, "This is my job, and I will definitely inquire about it." ”

"Do your best, it doesn't matter if you can't ask. Shang Bai said, "In fact, with our strength, we don't have to worry about them at all." Although the six major sects of the Chu State have their heritage, it may be troublesome to attack their mountain gates. But if they want to come out, they will be looking for their own death. Since they have come to death with all their hearts, then I will be merciful to fulfill them. ”
