Chapter 412 Lin Fan fights the Holy Mother, the overseas fairy island counterattacks!
Lin Fan's eyes trembled slightly.
Gu Xinglian's strength was completely beyond expectations.
Although he had seen the Saint Lord take action more than once before, it was obvious that only when he faced the Saint Lord in person could he truly feel his power.
One attempt made Lin Fan feel refreshed from head to toe.
"Senior, be careful!"
Lin Fan is certain that such a being can definitely take on all of his attacks!
Then, he could act with confidence and truly display his current maximum combat power.
It would also be good to have a clearer understanding - how much difference there is between my current strength and the Saint Lord level combat power.
"Just attack with confidence."
"Today, as a senior, I will give you some pointers."
Gu Xinglian smiled slightly, put his hands behind his back and pointed out the situation.
As for the words "be careful", she just took it as a joke and didn't take it seriously.
Be careful, what should you be careful about?
Even if you explode and temporarily possess the combat power of the ninth realm peak, can you threaten or even hurt me?
It's a joke!
However···
Lin Fan's next attack made her eyelids twitch instantly!
"Black Hole Fist!"
"Six Paths of Reincarnation Fist!"
boom!
Lin Fan threw out both fists at the same time, like two dragons emerging from the sea, moving forward in unison!
One hand was as black as ink, and the other hand was as sharp as a fist, and time became blurred!
"!!!"
This kid is really terrifying.
Gu Xinglian was surprised.
She was knowledgeable and experienced, but this was the first time she had seen someone at the fourth level of the ninth realm who could unleash such combat power.
break!
She stretched out her slender fingers.
The fingers that looked white, tender and fragile seemed to be able to see through everything in the sky and on the earth!
boom!
The moment a ferocious beast swept past, Lin Fan retreated explosively, and both attacks were overwhelmed and swallowed up!
“···”
"sharp."
Lin Fan exclaimed in praise and did not stop.
Swallow, right?
Then...come yourself too!
In an instant, the Moon-Swallowing Immortal Art and the Sky-Swallowing Demon Art were running at full power. At this moment, Lin Fan was even darker than a black hole. The terrifying suction force was beyond others' comprehension!
Whoosh!
Everything visible to the naked eye was rushing towards Lin Fan in an instant. Even the mountains in the distance were breaking apart and turning into countless fragments, all rushing towards Lin Fan.
Even the aura and air...
Even Gu Xinglian was caught off guard and flew towards Lin Fan suddenly. Although she reacted quickly and used a secret technique to stabilize her body, the distance between her and Lin Fan was instantly shortened a lot.
Swish!
Lin Fan even changed his position in an instant, appearing behind Gu Xinglian as if teleporting.
Gu Xinglian reacted quickly.
Turn around and fight back instantly.
But it passed through Lin Fan's body, as if it hit the void, without any force, and it went straight through.
“···”
Gu Xinglian was not panicked at all.
"oh?!"
"Do you know this method?"
She was surprised but calm, just staring at Lin Fan, waiting for his next attack.
Obviously, she knew about Xiao Ling'er's "divine power", and when she saw that Lin Fan could do it too, she was just a little surprised, but not panicked at all.
"very nice."
"With the methods you have learned so far, you can fight against ordinary top-level enemies."
"If you grasp the timing properly, you can still win the battle."
"But if we want to kill those guys, it's still a bit difficult. We need more powerful means."
"You..., do you have any more?"
“····”
"The fairy moon is shining in the sky!"
Lin Fan growled.
In an instant, a full moon appeared in the sky, but this moon was completely azure blue.
The blue moonlight scattered and landed on Lin Fan's body, and was instantly absorbed by him. The excess part turned into a set of blue armor and condensed on his body surface, which not only enhanced his combat power but also increased his attack and defense capabilities!
"Huh?"
Gu Xinglian was surprised again: "Isn't this the bright moon in the sky of the Bright Moon Sect..."
"wrong!"
"The bright moon is not blue, and your moonlight falls on me..."
She raised her hand.
He found that his hands were becoming blurry and there was a strange corrosive, or devouring force, devouring the immortal power in his body!
"A strange devouring force."
“Interesting.”
“···”
Lin Fan said nothing.
But this move was indeed something he gained based on the secret of the Haoyue lineage.
He didn't know what the fairy moon looked like.
But in my imagination, the Moon in the fairyland must be extremely amazing. In addition to the all-round attribute improvement, it is not surprising that it has a little "damage", right?
And it's continuous damage!
By continuously targeting the enemy and strengthening ourselves, the gap between us will be further narrowed.
"Come, fight, the one who fights!"
At the same time, Lin Fan used the Nine Secrets!
Although not all nine secrets have been created yet, Lin Bing Dou Zhe has already perfected them all.
At the same time, he stepped on the secret of the word "Xing" and his body was like a ghost.
"One thought and the flowers bloom!"
Thousands of fairy flowers are blooming.
One by one, the incarnations of immortals came out, but this was just the beginning!
The next moment, all the immortal flower incarnations, including the original body, shouted at the same time: "Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Bodies!"
Boom!
Thunder roared.
Lin Fan's combat power soared again!
At this moment, almost every incarnation and clone has the combat power he had before his true outbreak.
At this moment, nearly 100,000 Lin Fan surrounded Gu Xinglian.
“···”
The corners of Gu Xinglian's mouth twitched slightly, but she controlled herself very well, still floating in the air with her hands behind her back, and said, "Interesting."
"This method can already kill ordinary top-level enemies."
"But for the more powerful ones, or the Saint Lord level, it is not enough."
"That's natural."
Lin Fan smiled and said, "So, I don't plan to keep it. Please give me some advice, senior."
"call!"
Lin Fan took a deep breath: "Kunpeng Method!"
All the clones and incarnations said in unison: "Kunpeng Method!"
At this moment, Gu Xinglian actually felt a creepy feeling.
Before she could think about it, the phantom of Kunpeng had already appeared in the sky!
There is a fish in the North Sea, its name is Kun...
The big fish created a huge wave, and then instantly turned into a big roc, attacking Gu Xinglian with huge waves and infinite laws.
Gu Xinglian's face trembled...
after all···
This is not a Kunpeng attacking with tremendous force.
What a fucking bunch!
It’s tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands!!!
Covering the sky and the sun!!!
The whole world is Kunpeng! It is truly like covering the sky and the sun. All 360 degrees is Kunpeng's method!
The special effects were so rich that even the sunlight was blocked~!
In just a moment, Gu Xinglian felt her legs go weak and she almost couldn't help but take out the Sky-Viewing Mirror to fight back!
But think about it...
That's not right!
I have to pretend!
Even if you can't hold on, you have to hold on!
I was judging the younger generation’s temperament and strength as an elder, but before we had even fought a few times and before he even pretended to understand, he directly used the Guantian Mirror, a religious imperial weapon???
What does this mean?
It means I’m not good enough!
I can’t stand it!
Then do you still want your own face?
no!
support!
Even if you can't hold on, you have to hold on!
How can I lose face!
boom!
The moment she made up her mind, the terrifying attack had already overwhelmed Gu Xinglian.
At this moment, she was like a small boat in the ocean. With just a "cross", she was hit by countless Kunpeng punches!
Fortunately, she was well prepared and took action to resist in advance, but even so, she was hit so hard that her whole body shook and her teeth clenched.
I almost lost control of my facial expressions!
Fortunately...
She is strong enough and fierce enough.
Finally, we managed to survive this wave of attacks, and it seems there are no problems.
Very safe and calm~!
At least that's what it seems on the surface.
She breathed a sigh of relief: "Not bad."
"Again?"
It seemed like an understatement, but in fact, it almost broke his teeth.
"This kid is too perverted!"
"Isn't her true cultivation level only the fourth level of the ninth realm?"
"To be able to unleash such an offensive, let alone the top-ranked ones, even those at the top of the rankings may not be able to withstand it!"
"Even those of us at the Saint Lord level need to be cautious if we don't use the Imperial Guards."
"This kid..."
"It's not a pervert, it's a real pervert."
"But, that's the end of it, right?"
When she thought of this, she added, "No other means? That's not bad."
"At such an age and with such cultivation, yet possessing such amazing combat power, it is enough to be proud of."
"Looking back to the past and the future, I'm afraid that there are only a few people who can surpass you. I'm afraid there are not even a few left."
Hearing her talking so eloquently, Lin Fan blinked: "Huh?"
"how?"
"No, I mean... I can still fight."
“Is this the end?”
Gu Xinglian: “…!”
She almost went crazy.
This kid can actually continue and has a backup plan? !
This, this, this···
Keep fighting...
She really didn't want to continue playing. She was afraid that if she wasn't careful, she would show signs of fatigue or even get covered in dust!
That would not be a good look.
But it would not be appropriate to ask him to stop here.
“···”
"I see."
She forced herself to remain calm: "Come on."
"Let me see how much courage you have left."
"Yes, senior."
Lin Fan is very 'honest'.
He had no idea of Gu Xinglian's current condition.
But in his opinion, how could the Virgin of Flowers be so unbearable?
Her strength must be as deep as the sky. With my limited skills, I am completely a layman and there is no way I can hurt her.
so···
Just give it your all!
Lin Fan went all out.
"Liu Shen Fa!"
Nearly a hundred thousand Lin Fans went berserk at the same time.
“···”
The corners of Gu Xinglian's mouth twitched wildly.
But I can only bite the bullet and go ahead.
Boom!!!
Another fierce collision.
Gu Xinglian resisted perfectly and was unharmed~!
"good."
"This kind of method can barely enter the eyes of the Holy Lord. Most of the top nine realms are no match for you."
"But it's still far from enough to face the Holy Lord."
“Therefore, we must not be proud and complacent, and we must not think that we are so great.”
"It's definitely right to be more cautious and careful."
"You are absolutely right!" Lin Fan nodded, humbly accepting the teachings, but then said: "But I still have a few methods..."
Gu Xinglian: “(ΩДΩ)???!”
还···还有？！？！
我背在身后的双手现在都还在抖呢，你还来？
不是，想打死人啊你？
简直岂有此理！
而且···
你小子到底有多变态啊你？！
顾星怜险些倒吸一口凉气，随即道：“不必了。”
“我知你还有其他手段，但从你之前出手的战力差距，已然能估摸个七七八八。”
“虽然还不错，但相差却也不算太远，与我所做的结论，不会有什么差别。”
“所以，不必浪费时间了。”
“且方才，有长老突然联系我，有要事需要处理，所以，便不陪你在这儿玩儿了。”
这明显是要送客嘛！
林凡多精啊，顿时知道顾星怜是在赶人，当即乐呵呵回道：“以圣主的眼光，自然不会有错。”
“说来也巧，我也刚好想到还有要事，便先告辞了。”
说话的同时，那诸多林凡化身、幻身尽皆消散。
随后，两人都没多说。
只是短短闲聊两句之后，顾星怜便将他送出门去，并交由一位弟子，带他离开万花圣地。
当林凡走远，左右无人时。
一直‘淡定无比’，平静异常的顾星怜却是猛然浑身一抖，嘴角，更是流出鲜红血液。
“···”
“这个变态！！！”
她擦去嘴角血液，忍不住低声吐槽：“也未免太强了些。”
“若是不用观天镜，只怕我全力以赴，都未必能将他压制吧？”
虽然就之前交手的强度来看，顾星怜认为自己最多只是受伤便能将林凡拿下，但没听到人家说什么吗？
他还能继续！
而且还有‘几种’手段没用！
若是算上那些手段···
不用观天镜的话，自己就不是受伤不受伤、能不能将他压制的问题了，而是如果大战到最后，自己会不会被他反杀！
“···”
“变态！”
“果然是变态中的变态。”
“不过这也恰好从侧面证明，我没有看错人。”
“也好。”
“也好···”
她深吸一口气：“有他相助，大事可成。”
“而且，还有几年时间，他还能继续成长，真是期待呢···”
“不想了，先疗伤！”
“···”
只是，当她关上房门，盘膝坐下准备疗伤之时，却还是忍不住睁开双目再度吐槽：“真是个变态！”
是真变态啊！！！
自己是何人？
万花圣母！
继任圣母之位已近万年岁月，登临第九境巅峰，也已经大几千年了，只是由于积累还不够、且万花圣地下一任圣母还未培养出来，所以一直都在压制境界，没有渡劫、飞升。
可就算如此，自己的实力也从未停止过增长啊！
如今的自己，对上刚突破第九境巅峰时的自己，那是轻轻松松都能以一敌百，甚至一个打一千个也不是没有可能。
这还是自己不动用观天镜，且让她们结阵的情况下！
可···
哪怕是强横如斯的自己，对上林凡这个初入第九境不久的家伙，硬实力都未必是其对手。
这特么不是变态是什么？！
“！！！”
“变态中的变态，天命之人恐怖如斯？不，不对！”
“谁年轻时还不是个天命之人了？”
“这已经不是天命之人几个字能够代表的存在了。”
“···”
“疗伤，疗伤！”
“···”
······
“不愧是圣主级存在。”
“我几乎要手段尽出了。”离开万花圣地之后的林凡却也惊叹不已：“实力真强啊！”
“连柳神法都用上了，竟然都无法逼迫她退后哪怕一步，也就是吞月仙功加上吞天魔功突然爆发的吸力，让她一时不察移动了半步。”
“就这，她都未曾动用爆发类秘术、没嗑药，更没动用镇教帝兵观天镜。”
“若是把这些手段都用上，要灭我，还不是轻轻松松？”
“恐怕就算我将石昊的两种至尊术、自己最近悟出的秘术全部用出来，甚至从何安下那里把微生物借来，都扛不住两下吧？”
“圣主···”
“太猛了！”
林凡摇头晃脑，唏嘘不已。
从他的视角来看，圣主级大佬真的太猛了。
自己本以为能达到第九境巅峰修为，再加上一身的无敌术、无敌法，纵然不敌，也不会相差太多。
结果现在看来，这哪里是不会相差太多？
这分明是相差十万八千里，被人家按在地上随便摩擦都没办法反抗啊！
“不行，还得苟！”
“还得继续变强。”
“且除非万不得已，否则绝对不能跟圣主级对上。”
“就算非要干圣主，那也一定要提前做好一切准备、各种手段齐出，无所不用其极···对了，还要将苟剩这件‘装备’带上！”
“···”
飞了许久。
林凡还是忍不住嘀咕：“是真猛啊！！！”
“···”
······
“这个消息···”
秦雨接到锦衣卫最新线报，查看之后，不由眉头皱起：“不行。”
“我得立刻告诉师尊！”
“···”
他当即屏退左右，通过传音玉符联络林凡。
“师尊。”
林凡很快回应：“哦？秦雨？”
“你向来独立，很少联系我，如今突然联系，怕并非小事？”
“师尊，您说笑了。”
秦雨声音凝重：“不过，的确有大事。”
“师尊可还记得，当初西门家覆灭之时的细节？”
林凡一愣。
西门家覆灭的细节？
那当然记得！
毕竟···
陆鸣就是自己啊！
“细说！”林凡追问。
“当初···”秦雨声音更显凝重：“西门家西门麒麟即将万劫不复时，曾进行血祭，请人出手。”
“当时，他成功请来一尊强横存在，相隔不知多少万里降下一尊化身，那化身，几乎成了变数，且从他们的字里行间之中，足以得悉，此人，与当初咱们揽月宗的重创、与西门、周家的背叛，脱不了干系。”
“嗯。”
林凡低语：“查到了？”
“师尊明鉴。”
秦雨语气肃穆：“此前，我们一直以为，那是中州某个势力之中的强者，这些年也一直在想办法追查，可却没有什么头绪。”
“直到最近，弟子准备出海，在逐步接触海外的一些势力与修士，并开始让锦衣卫朝海外那些仙岛渗透，这才逐渐有了眉目。”
“那人，应当是海外仙岛-——莱芜岛供奉之一。”
“莱芜岛？”
林凡微微沉吟。
仙武大陆很大，以‘科学’的眼光来看，简直大的逆天，或者说根本就不科学。
但仙武大陆自然不可全是陆地，大陆边缘也有海洋，而海外，有诸多岛屿。
大部分是荒岛、小部分有岛民居住，其中的‘凤毛麟角’，则为‘仙岛’，有修士居住，或是开宗立派、或是直接经营一个势力。
仙武大陆很大。
海洋面积却是还要在陆地之上！
所以岛屿，也是多如牛毛。
因此，哪怕‘仙岛’在诸多岛屿之中，或许只有千分之一乃至万分之一的概率，其总数量却也不少。
且实力不弱！
在林凡沉思之时，秦雨接着道：“这些仙岛，有强有弱，强的，完全可以媲美超一流势力。”
“且由于海外没有圣地，许多仙岛都喜欢结盟、抱团取暖。”
“因此，他们颇为难缠。”
“而且，海外有一种近乎‘蛮荒’的性格，比咱们八域一州更遵循弱肉强食的性格。”
“这个莱芜岛，便是属于‘蓬莱’联盟中的一员，而蓬莱岛本就是海外仙岛中的领袖之一，其实力，乃是超一流中的超一流。”
“而他们诸多岛屿所组成的蓬莱联盟，只怕能在一定程度之上与圣地较量，只是···应该没有圣地的底蕴。”
“而且，锦衣卫在付出不小的代价之后，带隐约探到一个消息。”
“什么消息？”
“海外诸多仙岛蠢蠢欲动，似乎早已经暗中联合，正准备伺机反攻咱们八域一州。”
“似乎是不求拿下整个八域一州，但却至少要反攻下一、两域之地，而后再徐徐图之。”
“哦？！”
林凡眉头一挑。
“如此说来，他们是准备动手了？”
“师尊怎么知晓？”秦雨惊讶。
“不难猜。”
林凡叹道：“灭世黑莲这一波，十二圣地只剩其九，且都有不同程度的损失，这岂不就是万载、十万载乃至百万载难逢的机会？”
“只要他们真有这个想法，在得知这个消息之后，就不可能无动于衷。”
“再则，锦衣卫在海外的经营才刚刚开始，甚至几乎可以说才刚把脚伸进去。”
“就算付出了代价，这种隐秘，也不可能随意弄清楚。”
“但他们却成功了，足以说明，他们已经是蠢蠢欲动，随时准备出手了。”
“这种时候，消息自然藏不住，且就算泄露出去，也是无伤大雅。”
“所以···”
秦雨吃惊：“不愧是师尊，分析的如此透彻。”
“事情的确是如此。”
“他们的确是蠢蠢欲动了，只是不知何时会动手。”
“你让我想想。”林凡摸着下巴沉思片刻：“如此说来，这个莱芜岛的人之前暗中接触西门家、周家，甚至还冒充中州之人，都是在为反攻仙武大陆而布局啊。”
“若是他们成了，西门家崛起，作为一个一流势力，完全可以作为‘桥头堡’。”
“而且，他们暗中接触、扶持的势力，绝对不止西门家一个！”
“到时候，他们一旦动手，咱们八域一州这边就是‘内部遍地开花’，外有正面进攻，内有桥头堡，可以通过超远距离传送阵不断增兵···”
“呵呵。”
林凡双目微眯：“整挺好啊！”
“是啊，我也这般认为。”
“所以师尊，此事，只怕会极为麻烦，那个莱芜岛，恐怕也会以咱们揽月宗为目标。”
“因此，咱们揽月宗，也要多做准备才是。”
“准备自然是要做的。”
林凡轻语：“你放心便是。”
“而且，我却是不信九大圣地毫无察觉！”
“师尊心中有数弟子便放心了。”
“嗯。”
“···”
······
结束通话后。
林凡揉着眉心：“牵一发而动全身啊。”
“海外仙岛反攻内陆···”
“怎么看都不像是小打小闹，怎么着也得是个十年大劫的程度吧？但时间还没到呢！”
“所以···”
“这波‘剧情’，或许原本是灭世黑莲这个‘百年灭世大劫’之后的第一波‘十年大劫’，但由于灭世大劫被我提前引爆，所以，这个剧情也提前牵扯出来了。”
“很艹蛋，但也很合理。”
林凡是真觉得没毛病。
海外仙岛不知道等了多少年，一直都在等一个机会。
灭世黑莲导致十二圣地只剩其九，且剩下的九个还都有大小不等的损失，纵观历史、上古以来，内陆战力何时如这般空虚过？
最好的机会啊！
“而且，他们还挺有逼数，知道自己战力不足，不可能拿下整个仙武大陆，所以想先夺取一两域地盘作为栖息地，再徐徐图之···”
“不过，想法很美好，现实却大概率会很残酷。”
“这么多年来都没让你们上岸，若是如今让你们占据一两域之地，有这些地盘、资源作为支撑，再过一段岁月，你们想要的，岂不是更多？”
“所以···”
“九大圣地绝不会放任不管，更不可能让他们顺利拿下一两域之地。”
“这一战···”
林凡皱眉，开始思考。
在这一战之中，揽月宗应该扮演一个怎样的角色。
或者说，该如何捞到好处？
“···”
“有点麻烦啊。”
“不过，这个莱芜岛，倒是可以作为突破口。”
林凡思前想后，觉着还是得以当初的仇恨作为突破口，再想办法捞好处比较合适。
毕竟揽月宗的地盘离‘海口’可还远的很，完全属于内陆中的内陆。
至于实力，林凡却也并不担心。
之前与顾星怜一战，已得顾星怜亲口承认，自己不弱于绝顶，甚至可斩绝大部分绝顶。
那莱芜岛···总不至于有圣主级大佬吧？
“等等！”
“说起来，似乎从地理位置来看，八域圣地，虽然都是处于洞天福地，但同时，也都在临近‘海边’的地区。”
“所以···”
“圣地一直都知道此事，也一直都在防备？！”
林凡思路瞬间清晰。
“必然是如此！”
“各大圣地一直都防备着海外这些仙岛，也知道他们一直都在图谋八域一州，只是由于海外‘海广人稀’，再加上这些修士完全可以到处乱跑，想要赶尽杀绝也是难上加难，所以，才让这个问题一直遗留至今。”
“···”
“所以，我甚至都不用告状？”
林凡一开始还想着，给顾星怜‘告个状’，让她用观天镜看上一看，弄清楚这些海外仙岛的动静，提前防备、坑杀什么的。
但现在看来，真没这个必要。
这次情况与之前的灭世黑莲不同。
灭世黑莲太猛，就是观天镜也无法洞彻虚实，所以林凡与顾星怜才一拍即合，一个在明一个在暗直接合作。
但海外仙岛之患，九大圣地早就知晓且一直都在防备，哪里还需要自己上蹿下跳去告状？
“跑去告状，反而成了出头鸟，只会更麻烦。”
“所以，我要做的，只是提前做好宗门遭受攻击的准备，并等待海外仙岛的反攻开始。”
“而后，在这个过程中寻找机会，去那个所谓的莱芜仙岛转一转。”
“把该弄死的人弄死。”
“顺便，整点资源回来。”
“嗯，就这么办~！”
林凡已经打定主意。
其实···
他倒不是那么财迷。
但身为一宗之主，没办法啊！
总得为门人们多积累一些资源、财富吧？
偏偏你这莱芜仙岛又跟我们揽月宗有大仇，这我若是还不对付你，岂能说得过去？
“不过···”
“似乎，可以将战场转移？”
林凡摸着下巴，想到一件事。
当初灭西门家的人，可不是揽月宗。
而是‘陆鸣’~！
虽然陆鸣现在是皓月一脉总执事，但说到底，按照冤有头债有主来算的话，陆鸣才是莱芜仙岛最想干掉之人。
那么，只要在开战之后，让陆鸣离宗，并闹出点动静···
那么莱芜仙岛的人，必然会上钩。
到时候，自然也就不必在自家地盘开战。
“妙啊！”
林凡直拍大腿：“就该如此！”
“毕竟，在自家家门口开战，若是打到小朋友怎么办？就算打不到小朋友，打坏花花草草也是不好滴。”
“所以，陆鸣，又该出去浪一波咯~”
“···”
······
林凡立刻安排。
林凡这个身份，直接由仙葩化身代替。
相对于稻草人而言，仙葩化身虽然有些缺点，但最大的优点是战力更强，拥有本尊八成以上的战力，不容易被人识破。
其本尊，则是再度化身陆鸣，入主皓月一脉。
如今的皓月一脉，已经···没有任何‘不服的声音’。
他们非但服，还‘特别服’，服的吓人！
从上到下、从头到尾，都只有一个声音，那便是揽月宗的声音！
刚融入时，私下里，还有不少人不爽。
但现在···
谁特么若是敢在私下里说揽月宗坏话，或是有什么乱七八糟的想法，嘿，都不用揽月宗来查，他们自己都会在最短时间内将人揪出来。
然后~~~
那可就好玩咯。
废除修为都是最轻的。
只是，享受这种待遇的人，总共也就那么区区几个。
倒不是其他人没骨气、被吓到了，而是他们都发现，揽月宗···是真香啊！
哪怕只是分支而非主脉，哪怕待遇只有主脉的七八成，都依旧是香的一批，完爆以往的皓月宗不知多少倍。
且不仅仅是资源！
那些个无敌法、无敌术···
多牛皮啊！多多啊！
虽然普通弟子学不到，但谁还没有个积极向上的心了？
没瞧见人家曾经的圣女、如今的总执事侍女温如玉便得到总执事赏识，得了两门主脉的无敌术，如今实力暴涨，境界也随之激增，前几日都跨入第八境了，听说，还有老牌第八境长老与之切磋，都被她击败~！
对于温如玉，旁人不熟悉，他们却是熟悉的很。
虽然实力很强，但却绝对达不到这个程度。
可为何她如今能这般强横，那全是因为揽月宗牛皮啊！
资源丰厚、待遇逆天、各种无敌法无敌术也是强的难以想象。
更何况，可不仅仅是温如玉而已，他们同样是切身实地的感受到了好处。
在这种种缘由之下，自然是对揽月宗拥护无比。
谁敢说揽月宗不好、谁要反揽月宗，那特么就是所有人的敌人，自然要狠狠教训、弄死都不为过。
至于背信弃义、抛弃列祖列宗···
胡说八道！
我们分明是在贯彻列祖列宗的信念，而且是贯彻到底！
没瞧见我们皓月一脉如今整体战力、资源，都远超当初么？
所以，休要胡说~！
在如此信念之下，如今的皓月一脉，可以说是稳如泰山。
莫说是有陆鸣坐镇，就是没有他这个人，乃至没有任何管理，都绝不可能出什么乱子。
因此~
‘陆鸣’自然可以放心外出。
只是，温如玉却不干了。
“您要外出？”
“请带上我。”
陆鸣：“···，我是外出游历，去追求丹道至高领域，你跟着我作甚？”
“你懂炼丹？”
温如玉面不改色，摇头道：“不懂，但我总得照顾您的饮食起居，且为您做一些琐事，这些琐事，总不能您亲力亲为吧？”
“若是如此，我这个侍女，岂不是显得太过没用？”
“···”
话没说完，眼看陆鸣又要开口拒绝，她面色一垮，美目含泪···
“罢了。”
陆鸣只能点头同意。
倒不是他被绑架。
只是突然想到，带个侍女在身边，可增加可信度，鱼儿也更容易上钩。
至于到时候她的安全问题，自己多费点心也就是了。
······
时间流逝。
灭世黑莲之事刚过去不久，西域、西北域百废待兴，各大圣地已然划分属于自己的地盘，并开始着手经营。
乍一看，似乎没什么问题。
一切，都是正常发展、合理推进。
可不知为何，修为较高的散修，却总有一种窒息之感。
好似···
有大事即将发生。
The nine holy places quietly recalled their disciples who were active outside.
Some top-notch forces also seemed to have heard some rumors and reduced their outings, and even quietly activated their own formations.
In this way.
Even though the independent cultivators were not very well-informed, they could still notice some problems.
“Something’s wrong!”
"Why don't people from the Holy Land walk around anymore?"
"It's not just the Holy Land. I've seen that most of the top-notch forces are on high alert, some even look like they're facing a formidable enemy. Why is that?"
"It can't be that the World-Destroying Black Lotus has made a comeback, right?"
"Bullshit! There is absolutely no possibility of this. The World-Destroying Black Lotus is too terrifying. If it really came back, how could the Nine Holy Lands remain silent? I'm afraid they would gather all the cultivators in the world at the first opportunity to surround and annihilate it!"
"That's true. Then... why are they doing this this time?"
"In my opinion, there may be a big war coming!"
"What kind of war could make the nine sacred places and so many top-notch masters so cautious?!"
"..., there is absolutely no such force in the eight regions and one state!"
"That's right! There is indeed no such thing in the Eight Regions and One State, so the other party must not be from the Eight Regions and One State. There are only two possibilities."
"One, from above."
"Two, from outside."
"Outside...? You mean, the fairy island overseas?!"
There are also many smart and knowledgeable people among the independent cultivators.
In other words, three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang, so how many independent cultivators are there? Among so many independent cultivators, there are some wise people who can deduce the truth through clues.
"It's unlikely to come from the upper world, but if it's from an overseas fairy island..."
"I have seen in ancient books that overseas monks are ambitious and have never been satisfied with us occupying the best land. They can only stand on the sea and fight with overseas beasts all the time to survive. Therefore, they always want to counterattack our Xianwu Continent!"
"Now, our combat power has probably dropped to the lowest level in tens of millions of years. It is reasonable for the overseas barbarians to want to attack at this moment!"
"..., the latest news!" In an inn, when many monks were chatting excitedly, someone rushed in with a panicked look on his face: "Just now, I spent a lot of money to enter the Tianji Tower and bought a confidential information!"
"Guess why I've been so depressed lately?!"
"It turns out that the barbarians overseas are watching us covetously and may take action at any time..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that everyone was staring at him with an inexplicable look, and he immediately became angry: "What are you looking at?"
"Daoyou."
At this time, someone stood up and approached him. Under his vigilant gaze, he patted his shoulder and said, "Calm down. I'm sorry."
“?!”
"Excuse me?" He was confused: "What should I express my condolences for?"
"Of course it's a pity to waste money."
"For such a small matter, why do we need to go to Tianji Tower? We all get together to brag, chat, drink and talk. With just a few words, we can already guess the truth."
"Just before you came, we had already determined that it was the overseas barbarians who were causing trouble."
"But you spent a lot of money to go to Tianji Tower..."
"You said, if you don't mourn, who will?"
“···”
“?!”
"grass!"
He suddenly felt so heartbroken that he could hardly breathe.
