Chapter 566 Senior Sister Mahayana, rushing to Haori

"It's all here."

Xiao Yuying handed a bag of tortoise shells to Zheng Fa.

Zheng Fa took it, opened the storage bag, and looked at it carefully for a while. No wonder these tortoise shells could be kept for so long - although he could not sense any spiritual energy, the tortoise shells themselves were not ordinary things. They seemed to be the shell of a spiritual tortoise and were very hard in texture.

"What do you want these for?"

Xiao Yuying asked curiously, her eyes lingering on his face, looking very interested.

"Let's take a look first." Zheng Fa shook his head and didn't express his thoughts.

Although this thing looks very similar to the oracle bones unearthed in modern times, he still needs someone to see whether they are the same thing.

Xiao Yuying blinked, as if she had thought of something, her expression showing obvious anticipation: "Then I'll wait."

Zheng Fa laughed in his heart, this group of people are... used to it.

"I'm leaving first."

Xiao Yuying was stunned for a moment, then seemed to understand something. She turned around and looked at the island where Senior Sister Zhang lived. A rainbow light beside her was already flying towards the island.

Zheng Fa landed in front of Senior Sister Zhang's courtyard. Instead of going in directly, he looked at Uncle Huang beside him and asked with his eyes.

Senior Sister Zhang has been in seclusion for more than a month to break through to the Mahayana stage, and he comes here almost every day.

Uncle Huang shook his head, his eyes filled with worry. Zheng Fa also looked towards the courtyard, waiting quietly.

Three days later, the scene in the courtyard finally changed:

Dark clouds surrounded the island, and the entire Three Enclosures and Four Symbols became dark.

"No clothes!"

Senior Sister Zhang, dressed in white, jumped into the calamity cloud and was never seen again.

Only wind, fire and thunder remained, entwined in the air.

Uncle Huang clenched his fists and stared intently into the depths of the dark clouds, never moving his eyes away for a moment.

Rays of light flashed by, and Uncle Pang and his companions landed beside them. They also looked up at the depths of the calamity cloud with expectant eyes.

Although she is no longer the first Mahayana cultivator in the sect, Senior Sister Zhang's advancement is also a boost to the strength of the Jiushan Sect.

Of course, what is more important is that the feasibility of the "Huangting Sutra" has been verified - only Zheng Fa can be called a special case, and the successful advancement of Senior Sister Zhang can give everyone a reassurance.

Two hours later, Senior Sister Zhang's pretty figure broke through the calamity clouds and stood in the air.

The rosy glow fell on her shoulders, and the auspicious clouds looked like a white skirt with gold in it. Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

"It went very smoothly." Uncle Pang smiled so hard that his eyebrows were covered with tears. "As long as she overcomes the inner demon tribulation, she will become the second Mahayana in the sect."

"Come to think of it, she only took twenty years longer than Zheng Fa?" Xie Qingxue suddenly asked, "It seems that it took Zhang Taishang only a little over sixty years to go from the Divine Transformation Realm to the Great Perfection Realm?"

Everyone was surprised when they heard this. Xie Qingxue sighed from the bottom of her heart, "In Xuanwei, Zhang Taishang is considered a peerless genius. I really feel inferior to him."

Indeed, Senior Sister Zhang’s progress from the Spiritual Transformation stage to the Mahayana stage was much faster than others.

Among all the current God Transformation cultivators in Jiushan Sect, Senior Sister Zhang’s advancement was actually not that early. Xie Qingxue, Jiao Wuji, and Old Ancestor Xuehe all advanced much earlier than her. These three had wasted thousands or even tens of thousands of years at the God Transformation level.

But Senior Sister Zhang is now the first one after Zheng Fa to break through to the Mahayana stage.

There are many reasons for this, but the main three are:

The first one is naturally Senior Sister Zhang’s own talent, which not only refers to her single spiritual root and Yuanling Dao body.

She also had an extraordinary talent in the art of talismans, which enabled her to comprehend the "Huangting Sutra" very quickly.

It can be said that the person with the deepest attainments in the "Huangting Sutra" in the Jiushan Sect, apart from the founder Zheng Fa, is Senior Sister Zhang.

The second reason is the relatively abundant resources of the Jiushan Sect:

Although Zheng Fa values ​​making money, he is not a miser, and Senior Sister Zhang is a senior figure in the sect.

There is an endless supply of spiritual stones from the sea trade routes, and now there are spiritual materials collected within the Haori Mountain.

These resources are enough to support a large sect like Hao Ri Mountain.

Therefore, even though the Jiushan Sect has many disciples, their cultivation level is relatively low compared to Haori Mountain, and the resources required are not many.

Therefore, whether it is Senior Sister Zhang or other disciples, they can obtain sufficient resources for cultivation.

Of course, this is not the root cause.

The fundamental reason is her close relationship with Zheng Fa.

This kind of intimacy was reflected in their dual cultivation. Before they became gods, Zheng Fa gained more benefits from their dual cultivation.

But now the situation is reversed. After Zheng Fa achieved great success, he became a cheat for Senior Sister Zhang. He poured his own cultivation into Senior Sister Zhang without reservation, and took her to success every day.

The other people in Jiushan Sect did not have such an "opportunity".

Of course, this intimacy is also reflected in Zheng Fa's unreserved attitude towards Senior Sister Zhang - Zheng Fa has always been willing to teach her all the difficult aspects of Mahayana Buddhism and the secrets of the Huangting Sutra. In fact, Senior Sister Zhang is the one who knows best how Zheng Fa created the Huangting Sutra step by step.

In the past, Senior Sister Zhang paved the way for herself to ascend to immortality with her own cultivation and insights. Now Zheng Fa can also do the same and help Senior Sister Zhang on her way.

Everyone also figured out the key, and looked at Zheng Fa with strange eyes, but no one said anything.

Only Yuan Xiaoniao spoke frankly: "I really envy Senior Sister!"

Uncle Huang's worries were slightly relieved, but when he heard Yuan Xiaoniao say this, he couldn't help but glare at him. What was this silly bird envious of? Did he think she couldn't see it?

But this bird only grows in age but not in brains. She understood this, but she just shook her head secretly and didn't take it seriously.

Uncle Pang nodded slowly and said, "It is indeed enviable."

“…”

There's something wrong with this guy named Pang!

A moment later, Senior Sister Zhang overcame her inner tribulation and broke through the barrier.

The Jiushan Sect had gained another Mahayana, and the disciples were naturally celebrating, but the atmosphere among the elders was a little heavy - they all knew that when Zhang Taishang advanced to the Mahayana stage, Zheng Fa would go to Haori Mountain.

In the Heavenly Palace, Zheng Fa looked at the elders and made arrangements for what would happen after his departure:

"According to our investigation, the Gu God should have fled far away."

Han Lao reported: "There is nothing unusual on Haori Mountain. I don't know if she has returned."

"Don't underestimate this person." Zheng Fa said to Xiao Yuying, "The Yuanci formation must not be neglected."

"Understood. I will arrange for my disciples to take turns on guard."

Zheng Fa nodded and looked at Senior Sister Zhang: "How is the situation at Haori Mountain?"

"The insects have retreated, but the soil has been contaminated and is poisonous." Senior Sister Zhang frowned and said, "At least 50% of the land within Haori Mountain's sphere of influence has been contaminated by the Gu insects. The water is undrinkable, crops can't be grown in the soil, and even breathing there can easily cause poisoning."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Pang and the others all frowned.

"Is there a solution?"

Senior Sister Zhang looked at Mu Qingyan.

"We've already been researching, but there are so many different types of poisonous insects that it's difficult to find a universal solution. We can only research different antidotes for each, and we'll also need a large number of monks to use magic to treat the toxins."

"My Qingjing Bamboo can do it, but it consumes too much energy." Senior Sister Zhang said helplessly, "Even if I'm a great master now, it's hard to sustain it."

Uncle Pang said, "So, it will be difficult for us to advance quickly towards Haori Mountain?"

Zheng Fa affirmed, "We can take it, but it's worthless, and we can't hold it. We can only clean it up while advancing."

Although the Gu God has disappeared, the trouble he caused is really not small.

There were too many Zergs and the area of ​​disaster was too large. Even if Senior Sister Zhang was exhausted, it would be difficult to clean them up.

If it is not cleaned up, the place will be uninhabitable and there will be no way to set up the magnetic array.

Zheng Fasi thought about it and finally made up his mind:

"Qingyan, you and Elder Xiong, continue researching and creating a magical medicine to clear the poison."

"yes!"

"Uncle Pang."

"you say."

"We can't just keep those independent cultivators we rescued alive for nothing."

Uncle Pang immediately understood: "You want them to return to Haori Mountain and help us clean up the poisonous soil?"

"What do you mean by helping us...this isn't their own home?"

"That's right!" Uncle Pang immediately understood and said excitedly, "That's fine. Otherwise, if we let the Nine Mountain Sect disciples go, I'd be worried about something going wrong."

Zheng Fa also nodded slightly.

He had no ill will towards those wandering cultivators, but he was not a selfless person either. Naturally, he cared more about the lives of the disciples of the Jiushan Sect - these were the ones he had worked so hard to cultivate.

Not only is there poison on Haori Mountain, but the Gu God might also have hidden tricks up his sleeve, so he doesn't want his disciples to take risks.

"Of course, we still have to give them some good deeds." Zheng Fa pondered for a moment and said, "We also have to explain the situation clearly to them."

"Those who are willing to go will be considered as making a contribution to our Jiushan Sect. We will select the best candidates to recruit in the future."

"If they don't want to go, then that's up to them, but they can't be kept in the Nine Mountains Realm."

Uncle Pang agreed, "I understand. We in the Jiushan Sect don't support idlers."

Everyone in the hall was nodding their heads. They were in meetings every day, with tasks one after another. How could they let those independent cultivators enjoy a leisurely life?

"As for attacking Haori Mountain..." Zheng Fa said this with helplessness, "We, tens of thousands of cultivators, have worked hard for several months, but the result is not as good as the evil caused by Gu Shen alone."

“…”

After hearing these words, even Xie Qingxue, who hated Hao Ri Mountain deeply, showed a hint of sympathy on his face.

The Gu God came out to fight against Jiushan Sect, which did not cause much damage to Jiushan Sect, but Haori Mountain was badly deceived.

According to the Land Clan captives, the Gu God's attacks were not free, and her insect army needed living creatures to feed every day.

At first it was poultry and spiritual beasts, but later Haori Mountain couldn’t bear it anymore and started capturing people and independent cultivators.

Today, Haori Mountain has become a scorched earth.

Uncle Pang couldn't help but sigh: "At the beginning, we were under the guise of eliminating demons and defending the way, but I didn't believe it myself."

"Now, we really have to save Haori Mountain from disaster."

Zheng Fa could only shake his head and said to Senior Sister Zhang, "If that's the case, then let those independent cultivators clean up the toxins, and our disciples will follow behind and prepare to set up the formation."

Senior Sister Zhang nodded slightly.

Zheng Fa looked at Xie Qingxue again and said, "Fairy Xie, please lead the Shenxiao warship to protect those wandering cultivators."

"clear."

After making preliminary arrangements for the Jiushan Sect's next plan, Zheng Fa turned his wrist and took out the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle.

"I'll leave this treasure bottle to you, Senior Sister, to prevent the Gu God from coming again."

Senior Sister Zhang has now reached the Mahayana stage, so it is not a burden for her to use the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle.

This treasure is a natural nemesis to the Gu God, and there is also the Thick Earth Yuanci Formation, and even within the Nine Mountains Realm, there is the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation.

With triple protection, Zheng Fa, who was cautious by nature, felt about 80% assured.

But Senior Sister Zhang seemed worried: "You take this treasure, lest the Gu God stay in Jiuyaotian."

"I've made a plan. This time, I'll enter Haori Mountain under a false identity," Zheng Fa said. "Those poisonous insects seem to be very sensitive to this treasure bottle. If I bring it with me and it's sensed by the poisonous god, it will ruin my plans."

Fake identity...

Everyone turned their heads and looked towards a corner of the hall. Shi Nandang slowly raised his finger and pointed at himself: "Me?"

…

At the foot of Haori Mountain, the giant city that looks like a mosquito coil is still majestic, but the city is much more desolate.

Two spies from Jiushan Sect pushed their pancake stall and passed through the city gates. Along the way, they saw that every household had its doors half-closed, shops were closed, and there was no one on the road.

“What a huge change…”

The two looked at each other and were frightened. Many people had disappeared. If it weren't for the Lu clan standing behind them, they would probably have died long ago.

They arrived at their stalls, and one of the original vendors next to them was gone.

"Where are the people?"

The female disciple of Jiushan Sect couldn't help but ask the person next to her.

"Who knows? We might not be able to continue our business in this situation. We might even quit."

The female disciples of Jiushan Sect nodded. Nowadays, most people don’t dare to go out for fear of being handed over to the Demon Ancestor, and business will become difficult.

Even now they can only make a living. If there are no tasks and support from within the sect, they don't want to do it anymore.

This Haori Mountain looks like a sign of a dying clan no matter how you look at it!

"Quitting?" an old man selling magic tools said, "He actually wants to do it!"

"How do you say that?"

Upon hearing this, everyone around became interested and asked questions.

The old man didn't say anything, but just held his pipe and took a puff on the ground.

"Come on, take mine! Good stuff!"

A man came forward and took out a small bag of tobacco from his chest.

The old man smiled with satisfaction, slowly put the tobacco into his pipe, lit it, took a long puff, and then said slowly, "Give it to you."

deliver……

It is obvious who it is for. Now that the word "send" is mentioned in Haori Mountain, everyone understands.

"But behind him..."

"What's behind this?" The old man sneered. "At this age, everyone is busy with their own affairs. Whoever is behind this, can they be more powerful than the Gu God?"

"What happened to the Gu God?"

"I heard that the Gu God has gone crazy and has been asking for offerings." The old man's voice was cold. "Not to mention us, people from the three tribes were also sent away."

"Three tribes?" The vendors stared. "How is that possible?"

"How is it impossible? With Patriarch Luo gone, who else can the Luo clan rely on?"

"At least there's some incense..."

"I'm the Demon Ancestor, what's the point of talking to you about incense?" The old man sneered, "Those arrogant disciples of the three clans only feel the pain when they get hit on their buttocks with a stick!"

"Shh..."

Several disciples from the three tribes were walking towards us from afar.

The group of vendors dispersed, and the old man put out his tobacco and bowed his head respectfully, not daring to bring bad luck.

Sure enough, that group of people were walking around the market with angry looks on their faces.

Among them, there were several disciples from the Luo clan and several disciples from the Yun clan, but no one from the Lu clan.

"My uncle, although he's from a side branch and not the direct bloodline of the Luo clan, has worked diligently for Haori Mountain his entire life. Now he's been fed to insects!" A Luo clan member shouted, "Is this still Haori Mountain? Is this still the Immortal Gate?"

The expressions of the other Luo people were also very ugly.

"Don't think that the Gu God will let you go!" Seeing that the Yun Clan members were silent, the Luo Clan disciple said directly, "Although Patriarch Yun is still here, he is the Demon Ancestor! How can he care about Patriarch Yun?"

"If they occupy my Haori Mountain, the first person they will deal with will be Patriarch Yun! From now on, how can this Haori Mountain still belong to our three clans?"

The people of the Yun Clan looked at each other without saying a word.

At first, they arrested independent cultivators, then they arrested their subordinates, and now they are arresting people from the three tribes themselves!

Although they didn't want to admit it, they had to say that what the Luo people said was very likely.

"Now, a single Gu God has severely damaged the vitality of Haori Mountain. There are still two Demon Ancestors behind us..." The Luo Clan disciple continued, "Where will our three clans have a place in the future?"

"Isn't the Lu clan okay?"

"The Lu clan, they are the ones arresting people!" Upon hearing this, the Luo clan members' faces turned even uglier, and they gritted their teeth and said, "As expected of the inheritance of the original Demon Ancestor!"

Others were horrified: "You are trying to kill yourself!"

"Life? With the Gu God inside and the Jiushan Sect outside, and Patriarch Yun trapped in the underworld, who in the entire Haori Mountain Sect dares to say they can survive?"

“…”

These words left everyone else speechless.

"There is no one left in Haori Mountain who can stand up for us and protect our disciples from the wind and rain!"

At this moment, a loud shout came from afar: "Welcome Master Shi!"

A group of people stood in the market town, staring blankly at the outer city, as if they couldn't believe their ears.

Until a monk rushed into the inner city, overjoyed, and shouted loudly: "Master Shi Nandang is back!"
