Chapter Twenty-Five: Tanglin Station
At noon, everyone packed up and set off towards Tanglin Station.
The female ghost of Yaojiazhuang is just a small episode on the South China Sea Road, and after the matter has passed, no one has mentioned it again, but the real people in the sky along the way seem to be more silent than before.
At sunset, the Qingxu Sect and his party arrived at the Tanglin Station, speaking of the post station, it is actually a thousand-foot high cliff, with a towering cliff on one side and a ramp up the mountain on the other. There is a three-story post house on the top of the cliff, which can be used for pedestrians to take a rest in addition to the monks on daily duty.
Tanglin Station is located at the junction of the two factions, with the Qingxu Sect on the west side and the Ziyun Sect on the east side, which is a small sect like the Qingxu Sect. Because it is located between two small sects, Tanglin Station is actually just a small post, and there are only a few ways to go back and forth, one of which is the southernmost ferry port of Yuan Shizhou - Yishandu.
Kongji Zhenren led everyone up the cliff and stepped into the post house, just because the flying boat had not yet arrived, he planned to rest in the post house for a while.
When the monk on duty saw the crowd coming in, he slowly stepped forward to greet him. There are only three or two monks on duty in this small post on weekdays, and the name of the steward in front of him is Jiang Cheng, and he is a cultivator in the Jindan realm, because he has a lot of contacts, and he is also familiar with the real people of Kongji.
There is also a group of people in the post house, and the real people of the empty pole also know it, it is the neighbor of the Qingxu Sect to the east, the Ziyun faction, the first old man in purple clothes and white hair, is Yu Yongle, the head of the purple cloud faction, and like the real person of the empty pole, he is also a monk of the Yuanying Realm.
"Brother Kongji Dao has also arrived, the old man has been waiting for a long time!" Yu Yongle stepped forward with a smile and greeted the real person of Kongji. The Qingxu Sect and the Ziyun Sect are both low-end small sects in the Ruogu Alliance, and naturally they also have a little sympathy, and Kongji Zhenren and Yu Yongle also have a good personal relationship, so they sat down at a table at the moment, chatting and waiting for the arrival of the flying boat.
"Brother Kongji Dao, I heard that last year, your Qingxu Sect dug up a spiritual vein, and there is an ancient cave mansion, and you got a lot of good things, right?"
"But there is such a thing. Brother Yu should also have heard about it, a few big people came, and they fought outside the cave, and then the cave was also destroyed, so how could there be any treasures left. ”
"The old man has also heard about this, and even the immortals of the Shenyue Fairy and the Evil Living Buddha are also alarmed. Yu Yongle knew in his heart that with these masters present, how could the Ancient Cave Mansion have the share of the Qingxu Sect, so he turned the conversation around and asked, "What about the spiritual vein? It is said that this spiritual vein is not small, and your Qingxu Sect is not worried about the use of the Gathering Spirit Stone now." ”
Kongji Zhenren shook his head: "The bigger the spiritual vein, the hotter it is." I have repeatedly proposed to the senior brother in charge that I hand over the spiritual vein to the Xiaoyao Sect or the Great Compassion Temple, with the strength of my Qingxu Sect, such a large spiritual vein cannot be eaten. ”
Yu Yongle said with a smile: "Brother Kongming Dao is not wrong, if you are an old man, such a big spiritual vein, you are reluctant to cede it." ”
Kongji Zhenren's eyes lit up: "If Master Yu has a heart, why don't you lease this spiritual vein to the Purple Cloud Sect? ”
Yu Yongle coughed dryly: "Brother Kongji Dao said that he was laughing, he was laughing." Then he changed the topic and sighed: "It's another Nanhai Heavenly Market, and every time it comes to this time, it means that the six-hundred-year Great Demon Tide is not far away." ”
The real person of the void pole also said abruptly: "Yes, the six-hundred-year Great Demon Tide, I don't know if my Qingxu Sect can survive it." ”
"Hey, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and it's useless to think about that bad thing now. Yu Yongle turned his head to look at Jiang Cheng, who was sitting on the side, and asked: "Brother Jiang, you have been guarding this Tanglin Station, you have seen a lot of monks coming and going, and the news is better than ours, do you know that there is anything worth saying about this Nanhai Heavenly Market?"
Jiang Cheng took a sip of tea and said slowly: "There really is." ”
Yu Yongle came to be interested: "I wish to listen to you." ”
"The two Dao brothers know that although the South China Sea is a place where scattered cultivation gathers, in the final analysis, it is not a few families that divide the world, except for the transcendent Shenyue Fairy, there are only three major families and four major chambers of commerce left, and the secret fighting between the two sides has never stopped over the years. It's just that recently, I caught up with one thing, so that the battle between the two sides was almost on the table. ”
The Sky Pole asked, "What's the matter?"
"Among the three major families, Nangong Xingye, the head of the Yuwen family, has already completed the void and is about to cross the catastrophe. ”
Yu Yongle was surprised: "Yuwen Xingye is about to cross the catastrophe? If I remember correctly, there is not a single Mahayana monk on the side of the four major chambers of commerce, if the old man Yuwen is allowed to cross the catastrophe, the four major chambers of commerce in the South China Sea will no longer be able to suppress the three major families." ”
"Isn't it, so of course the four major chambers of commerce don't want Old Man Yuwen to succeed in the tribulation. Of course, how sad it is to cross the hurdle, I don't have to say it, junior brother, the two Taoist brothers both understand that the heavens and the earth are fire, and the slightest carelessness is the destruction of the soul. In particular, the tragedy of the old man Yuwen is related to whether the three major families can gain a foothold in the South China Sea in the future, so it is even more necessary to ensure that nothing goes wrong. ”
Kongji Zhenren nodded, the Tribulation is indeed a moat on the path of cultivation, and how many amazing and brilliant people have fallen in the Thunder Fire Heavenly Tribulation, including the Changli Patriarch of his own Qingxu Sect, who has not been able to take this crucial step, and his body is dead.
"Originally, the old man of Nangong crossed the catastrophe, and before he was completely sure, he dragged it if he could. But now that the old man has lived for more than 4,000 years, if he presses the realm and does not cross the catastrophe, his longevity will be exhausted, and he can't delay it any longer. ”
Yu Yongle asked: "What does this have to do with this Nanhai Heavenly Market?"
"Brother Yu only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other. Now it is rumored that at this Wanbao Conference in Nanhai Tianshi, the finale is the Tribulation Pill refined by Mr. Zimiao himself!"
Yu Yongle and Kongji Zhenren were shocked, Mr. Zimiao's name can be described as thunderous among the monks in the living world, although he has no door or sect to cultivate one, and the Dao cultivation of the Yang God Realm is not a top power, but his medical skills of rejuvenating his hands are among the best in the living world, and his ability to alchemy and roasting medicine is even more well-known. This Tribulation Pill, as the name suggests, is an elixir that can assist monks to survive the Heavenly Tribulation, and it is one of the most difficult pills to refine among the thousands of pills in the living world, not only is the material expensive, but also requires superb alchemy, even so, the probability of becoming a pill is still very low.
With the Tribulation Pill refined by Mr. Zimiao himself as the finale of the Wanbao Conference, there is no problem at all, the problem is that the three major families and the four major chambers of commerce are fighting openly and secretly in the matter of Yuwen Xingye's Tribulation, I am afraid that this Wanbao Conference and even the entire Nanhai Tianshi will become unpeaceful.
"It's a treacherous, eventful time. The empty pole sighed.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "I know what the two Dao brothers are thinking, but things are far from being so simple. Who is Mr. Zimiao, and what a priceless treasure is the Tribulation Pill he personally refined, there are many sects in the Birth Realm, and there are not only the three major families and the four major chambers of commerce that are eyeing it? As far as I know, the Immortal Sect of Hanhai Continent, the True Martial Sect of Xuanwu Continent, and our Ruogu Alliance are all eyeing this Tribulation Pill. ”
Kongji Zhenren said: "There are also people in the Ruogu Alliance who want to cross the tribulation pill, is it that the senior of the Great Gate Sect is going to cross the tribulation?"
Jiang Cheng said with a smile: "Speaking of which, this person who is going to cross the catastrophe is still a neighbor of your Qingxu Sect." ”
Kongji Zhenren subconsciously glanced at Yu Yongle, but he was only in the Yuanying Realm like himself, and he was still 108,000 miles away from the tribulation. But Jiang Cheng said that this person was his neighbor............
He suddenly understood, and exclaimed in a low voice: "Tiangongmen, Gongsun Haikuo!"
