136 Chapter 136

Hearing what the Tianji Pavilion Master said, the Jiuyang Sect Master finally showed a look of joy. Although these guys from the Tianji Pavilion always like to say some specious things that make people confused, they still have the strength to live in one of the five major sects. At least their fortune-telling is very accurate. He said that it was a good sign, which meant that good things would definitely happen soon.

At this moment, the path that had been moving so slowly finally came to an end. The leader of the Hehuan Sect, along with his disciples, was already waiting at the gate in their finest attire. Ning Shu, the heir to the next generation, had returned from Chaoyin City and was standing beside his mother. Seeing them approaching, the leader of the Hehuan Sect lightly descended the steps and bowed slightly.

"Welcome everyone to the meeting, it's been a long time since we last met, Masters!"

The sect leaders immediately returned the greeting, "Long time no see, Sect Leader Ning Huang'er. Even after a hundred years, you still look as radiant as ever!"

Just as everyone was exchanging pleasantries, the photographers and reporters who had been waiting on the side swarmed over. Among them were not only reporters from the Hehuan Sect, but also some from the Qingfeng Sword Sect, the Tianyan Sect, or other sects that had run their own news media through the spiritual network. The glittering spiritual shadow stones took a fierce look at the sect leaders who were greeting each other in a friendly manner. Even the leader of the Jiuyang Sect, who was confused about the situation, was almost getting used to these eye-catching things.

These well-trained reporters were obviously different from the enthusiastic fans just now. One of them held a magical instrument that seemed to be used for amplification, and they rushed to the front of these sect leaders. Although the questions they asked were different, most of their focus revolved around this Antian Conference.

"Excuse me, are the sect leaders interested in reaching any cooperation or consensus at this Antian Conference?"

"Is there any chance that the spiritual network construction work led by the Hehuan Sect will be stationed in the Jiuyang Sect and Tianji Pavilion?"

"What do you think the main development direction of the cultivation world will be in the next hundred years?"

"Will there be some policies to help independent immortals or support small sects?"

"Regarding the problem of monsters running rampant in border areas, do the major sects have any intention of cooperating to suppress it?"

The clan leaders who just wanted to attend the banquet and discuss cooperation without thinking too much: ...

Fortunately, the leader of the Hehuan Sect seemed to have anticipated this. She waved her hand behind her and introduced Ning Shu, the spokesperson for the Hehuan Sect's Antian Conference.

"We are certainly interested in further cooperation with all the sect leaders, and the deployment of the spiritual network will be put on the agenda. Of course, the specific progress will depend on the results of subsequent discussions with the sect leaders. We are very optimistic about this..."

Ning Shu stood in front of the reporters and talked freely. The leader of the Hehuan Sect waved to the other leaders, and then they quietly slipped into the Hehuan Sect.

After giving each sect leader a double-dwelling flower as a gift, the sect leader considerately left the remaining time for them to explore on their own: "I'm sure you're all tired from the journey. Today, please rest in the guest rooms. The Heavenly Peace Conference will officially begin tomorrow."

So the leader of the Jiuyang Sect came to the guest room carefully prepared by the Hehuan Sect with a lot of questions in his mind. The decoration and style were much more luxurious than five hundred years ago. It seemed that the Hehuan Sect had become much richer in recent days.

So the question is, what exactly happened in Hehuan Sect, Tianyan Sect and even Qingfeng Sword Sect these days?

Thinking of this, the sect leader lowered his head and looked at the Shuangqi flower that the Hehuan Sect had just distributed.

After following the instructions to register an account, he casually browsed the homepage of Wutongzhimu and a press release with pictures and text appeared in front of him.

"...The once-a-century Peaceful Heaven Conference is imminent. Today, Nine Yang Sect Master Chen Dancheng, Tianji Pavilion Master Wuwei, Qingfeng Sword Sect Master Xuan Qing, and Tianyan Sect Master An Wenjing have successfully arrived at the Hehuan Sect and held their first meeting with Hehuan Sect Master Ning Huang'er...

According to Ning Shu, the spokesperson for the Hehuan Sect, the Hehuan Sect will accelerate the development of information technology for the cultivation world during the Antian Conference, strengthen commercial cooperation with the Jiuyang Sect and Tianji Pavilion, break down trade barriers, and achieve win-win cooperation among the three parties..."

It has only been an hour since he arrived at the Hehuan Sect. Those guys holding the Spirit Shadow Stones moved quite quickly... Sect leader Chen Dancheng looked at his somewhat stiff face in the news photo and muttered to himself, then curiously clicked on the comments below.

You won’t know until you see it, and you’ll be shocked when you see it.

In the past, the Antian Conference was only a very important occasion for famous sects like them. In order to demonstrate the strength and reputation of their sects, the major sects would actively prepare for it.

On the day of the meeting, the leaders of each sect would gather together to drink, chat, watch the show, and show off what powerful magical weapons they had recently obtained and what talented disciples had appeared. If necessary, the five major sects would hold a small meeting after the meeting to divide up the profits, and then everyone would go back to their own homes and see each other again in a hundred years.

Generally speaking, it is just a boring gathering full of worldly affairs. It has little to do with ordinary monks, and few people care about it.

"Ah? The Antian Conference? Another hundred years have passed, time flies!" - For ordinary cultivators, this is probably the kind of news they know.

But this time, I don't know what happened. It seems that everyone on the Internet is paying attention to this conference. Looking at the people in the comments, it seems that they are from all corners of the world. Any random sentence in the news will be picked up and discussed repeatedly. Those who don't know would think that this Antian Conference is closely related to their lives.

"This thing, apart from anything else, is incredibly fast at transmitting information. Could the Tianyan Sect and Qingfeng Sword Sect's popularity among cultivators be due to this thing?" The more Chen Dancheng thought about it, the more it made sense. So, after a long while of searching, he finally learned how to use the search bar. He stumbled and typed in the words "Qingfeng Sword Sect"...

"Hiss! A trip to that freezing place costs thousands of spirit stones? Staying in a hotel costs hundreds of dollars a night? This is simply robbing money!" Chen Dancheng gasped in shock.

Wow, look at the monthly sales figures, they're already over a thousand. Just selling tickets alone has made the Qingfeng Sword Sect a net profit of several million spirit stones this month. I was wondering what that old-fashioned Xuanqing was gloating about just now. Turns out he was just showing off how prosperous his Qingfeng Sword Sect has become...

No, it's okay! Isn't it just a few million spirit stones a month? It's not impossible for my Nine Yang Sect to make it by selling pills! Although not every month... ahem! I'm not envious at all! Really!

He closed the top product page with a sour feeling in his heart, and then scrolled down. The second thing that appeared was a video.

It seems to be posted by the official account of Qingfeng Sword Sect. It starts with a high-energy collection of all the disciples in the sword competition. The passionate and rhythmic drum beats are accompanied by the sword practitioners' sword-wielding postures. Sharp eyes and even life-threatening confrontations appear one after another. It is overwhelming to watch and at the same time makes people feel a surge of blood.

The video then shows the back of a figure flying freely between heaven and earth on a sword, crystal clear rime and endless snow-capped mountains, and even a black and white spirit dog standing on the top of a snowy mountain against the wind, looking lonely and powerful...

The entire video captured almost all of the characteristics of the Qingfeng Sword Sect, and the audience couldn't help but yearn for it. Until the end of the video, several talented disciples led by Xuan Mo appeared, holding sharp swords in their hands and reaching out to the audience outside the screen:

"A sharp sword is sharpened by constant grinding, and passion never fades! Join us, the sharpest sword in the world is within you!"

This is actually an "enrollment advertisement".

Chen Dancheng: ...

Okay, take a look at those users who are screaming with excitement in the comment section, and it seems that we have found the answer to why Qingfeng Sword Sect is so popular.

This can’t go on! Seeing this, Chen Dancheng finally became a little impatient.

The Qingfeng Sword Sect earns more spirit stones, and the Nine Yang Sect is envious but not unacceptable. However, there are only a handful of talented cultivators in the world, and if they all go to practice swordsmanship with the Qingfeng Sword Sect, what will happen to the Nine Yang Sect in the future? Wouldn't alchemy cultivation be in decline?

Thinking of this, Chen Dancheng felt that he could not sit idly by. He looked up and recalled the list of disciples accompanying him this time. He selected a disciple who had stayed near Linghuzhou for a long time and called him over for questioning.

The disciple's name is Zhu Zhu. He is a direct disciple of an elder of the Jiuyang Sect. Although he is young, he has already reached the late Jindan stage. The quality of the pills he refines is also very stable. That's why he was able to make it onto the list of participants in the Antian Conference. Before participating in the conference, he had been wandering around the City That Never Sleeps. Now he just returned to the sect to go through the motions after receiving the notice.

"Master, what instructions do you have for this disciple?" He was not timid when summoned, and his young face still showed the clarity and stupidity that had not been beaten by society.

"Have you ever seen this before..." Halfway through the question, Chen Dancheng noticed the Shuangqi flower on Zhu Zhu's wrist. Judging from the way he looked at it, he must have been wearing it for a long time. Chen Dancheng frowned and sighed softly, "Why didn't you report your use of this thing to the sect? Now the Qingfeng Sword Sect and Tianyan Sect have taken the lead!"

"Hehe, disciple dare not say it." Zhu Zhu scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "Didn't you and Master forbid us from having too much contact with the Hehuan Sect? I'm afraid of being scolded."

Chen Dancheng: ...

Is my disciple a little stupid?

"Forget it! Fortunately, it's not too late now!" Chen Dancheng sighed and didn't bother to argue with the other party. He opened the Shuangqi Flower and pulled up the recruitment video released by the Qingfeng Sword Sect:

"Let's divide the work. I'll go ask the Hehuan Sect how to set up an official account. You can use it to make a promotional video for our sect recruiting disciples. The sooner the better. We mustn't let the Tianji Pavilion get ahead of us!"

"Okay, as you wish!" Zhu Zhu agreed very readily.

Considering the other party's seemingly flawed brain, Chen Dancheng gave him another worried reminder: "Remember, the content in this video must be unique to us alchemists. It must be stimulating enough to make people's hearts surge with emotion after watching it, and completely wash away those messy bad impressions of alchemy addiction!"

"But……"

"As long as you can make our sect famous in this area, I will give you a monthly salary increase of 3,000 spirit stones!"

"Yes, Master! I will complete the task!" Zhu Zhu, who was originally looking hesitant, immediately agreed without hesitation.

After returning to his room, Zhu Zhu lay on the table and began to think hard with a frown.

It needs to reflect the characteristics of Dan Xiu, attract the attention of many netizens, and eliminate stereotypes. It would be best if it can be submitted tomorrow...

He rolled around holding his head, his hair all messed up, but he still couldn't figure out anything. He finally understood what it meant that a good cook cannot cook without rice.

"Oh, I can't give up! I'm going to fight for the extra 3,000 spirit stones every month! I'll go to the spirit net to look for some inspiration first!"

He just searched for the word "Dan Xiu" on the spiritual network, and the first entry that popped up was: #Dan Xiu Xiu Dan Xiu Failed Screen Awards#

Watching the various videos of furnace explosions with bangs and bangs, Zhu Zhu had a flash of inspiration and a brilliant idea instantly emerged in his mind.

【Author’s words】

The owner of the group who completed the procedures overnight and applied for an account said: I have it done, have you made your video?

Zhu Zhu: Done, it’s so easy!

Sect Leader: Can you make us famous on the spiritual internet?

Zhu Zhu: It’s guaranteed!

The question is, what video did Zhu Zhu make? [狗头]
