Chapter 605: Be prepared for war at any moment, Daluo Dharma Assembly
Nine Mountain Realm.
Xie Qingxue walked into Yan Wushuang's yard.
Yan Wushuang was sitting on a stone bench in the yard, with the Zhuxian Sword lying across the stone table in front of him. He stared blankly into space, as if thinking about something. His upper body was motionless, but his hand kept stroking the hilt of the Zhuxian Sword.
"Junior brother?"
Xie Qingxue stood at the gate of the courtyard and watched for a long time before calling out softly.
Yan Wushuang was startled, looked up, turned to look at Xie Qingxue, and shouted: "Senior Sister? Do you want to see me for something?"
Xie Qingxue did not answer this question, but walked into the yard and looked down at the Zhuxian Sword, with a rare hesitation in her expression.
"Senior Sister? What happened?"
"Have you heard about it?" Xie Qingxue raised her head and looked at Yan Wushuang, "What happened to the Creation Demon Ancestor."
"The sect has urgently summoned the Tianhe Army. They've already told us that the Forefather of Creation might be about to invade." Yan Wushuang nodded. "The Forefather of Creation is a Golden Immortal. The Tianhe Army has been training their troops for a thousand days, and now is the time to deploy them."
"Maintaining the troops for a thousand days... The sect has truly sacrificed a great deal for the Tianhe Legion."
Xie Qingxue sighed.
She was also a high-ranking member of the sect, and Zheng Fa would not hide anything from her. Xie Qingxue certainly knew that in order to upgrade the Zhuxian Sword Formation, the sect had gone bankrupt, and even Hao Rishan's property had been spent, before it succeeded.
Now looking at the Jiushan family's assets, apart from the Tianhe Legion, there is no other means to fight against the Golden Immortal. It is reasonable and logical that the Tianhe Legion should be at the forefront.
As the master of the Zhuxian Sword, Yan Wushuang naturally understood this principle.
"Junior brother, Elder Han and I are thinking of asking you to... temporarily step down as the Master of the Zhu Xian Sword."
Yan Wushuang widened his eyes and looked at Xie Qingxue. Xie Qingxue turned away and looked into the distance: "It's not right for you to talk about this matter. I'll go talk to Zheng Fa and do it for you..."
"Senior Sister!" Yan Wushuang stood up suddenly, her voice raised high, "How can I stay in Jiushan Sect if you're like this?"
Xie Qingxue knew her idea wasn't quite right, but she persisted, "The Immortal Executioner Sword Formation has just been upgraded. Who knows how powerful it is? Can it fight against a Golden Immortal?"
“…”
"Junior brother, besides our master, there are only three of us left in the Tianhe Sect." Xie Qingxue turned and stared at Yan Wushuang, her expression surprisingly gentle. "I've watched you grow up since you were little, and I really don't want you to take any risks... I also know the 'Zhu Xian Sword Manual' and have practiced the 'Huang Ting Sutra'. My cultivation is higher than yours, so if I go, I'll have a better chance of success, and it will also be helpful to the Zhu Xian Sword Formation."
Yan Wushuang lowered his head, seemingly unwilling, but not knowing what to say.
Xie Qingxue's expression became increasingly gentle. She reached out her hand, tapped the Immortal Execution Sword, and softened her voice, "Junior Brother..."
"If it were you, Senior Sister, would you hide?"
Yan Wushuang suddenly spoke, his voice muffled.
Xie Qingxue frowned and looked at her junior brother.
Yan Wushuang suddenly raised his head, stared at her, and asked again: "Senior Sister, will you hide?"
Xie Qingxue faced Yan Wushuang's gaze, and it was rare that she was speechless in front of this junior brother.
"There are only four of us left in the Tianhe Sect." Yan Wushuang looked up at the sky, as if searching for something. "If I hide when I encounter danger, how will my fellow disciples in the Jiushan Sect look at me and the Tianhe Sect?"
Xie Qingxue was stunned.
"Will they think that we have not only betrayed our ancestors, but also lost their courage?"
“…”
"Sister, even if there's only one person left, we're still Tianhe Sect members, and we're descendants of the founder. I don't want to lose face. Otherwise, even if I survive, the Tianhe Sect will truly be dead."
Xie Qingxue was silent for a long time before she let out a long sigh: "I watched you grow up, but I never thought that you... are really the descendant of the ancestor."
"It was you, Senior Sister, who taught me."
Yan Wushuang knew that Xie Qingxue had been persuaded, and he laughed. Seeing the worry still on Xie Qingxue's face, he spoke to her comfortingly, "Don't worry, Senior Sister. The Immortal Executioner Sword Formation has been upgraded and its strength has greatly increased. If the Devil Ancestor of Creation comes, it will be a great opportunity to test the power of the sword formation!"
He spoke with conviction, and Xie Qingxue had no choice but to nod. However, Yan Wushuang continued,
"Senior Sister, I'm actually looking forward to his coming."
"What?"
"During the Tianhe Rebellion, although the Devil Ancestor of Creation was just a pawn, he was also to blame. I think..." Yan Wushuang tightly grasped the Immortal Execution Sword, "together with the Tianhe Legion, we can use the sword formation left by our ancestor to seek justice for the Tianhe Sect back then."
At this point, veins popped up on Yan Wushuang's hands: "I'm waiting for him to come!"
But the Taoist priest of creation did not come.
…
Haori Mountain.
"Shi Nandang is Zheng Fa?" Yun Zhenxian opened his mouth wide. Yes, of course he doubted Shi Nandang's identity, but Shi Nandang was actually Zheng Fa?
He really didn't expect it.
Seeing the affirmative look on Taoist Zaohua's face, Yun Zhenxian smiled bitterly and said, "I have dealt with him several times, and I haven't seen any flaws at all."
Taoist Zaohua nodded gently. "Not to mention you, we didn't even notice it. He has a very advanced transformation method, even more powerful than Bai Gu back then."
"The method of transformation..."
Yun Zhenxian's expression changed, as if he had thought of something. He frowned and asked again, "What about Bai Gu and Gu Shen Zushi?"
"Dead."
“Dead?!”
"What about the Golden Winged Dapeng and the White Lotus Patriarch? What about the disciples of my Lu clan?"
"They're all dead."
Taoist Zaohua was already upset after losing the Hongmeng Purple Qi. He also looked down upon Yun Zhenxian and the others, so he didn't bother to hide the truth and simply said, "Not a single one survived!"
"Master, may I ask, were they killed by Zheng Fa..."
"Him? He's just a sneaky little rat!"
“Yes! Yes!”
Yun Zhenxian lowered his head and quickly responded.
He thought for a moment, then said, "Ancestor, Zheng Fa's methods are so strange, maybe he has a trump card. He is on good terms with Tai Shang Dao and Yao Chi, so maybe he can get help. Even if we want to counterattack Jiushan Sect, we have to plan carefully."
Taoist Zaohua frowned.
Obviously, even though he looked down on Zheng Fa, he was actually afraid of him in his heart.
"What do you think?"
"Why not send a message to Leiyin Temple?"
"No!" Taoist Zaohua flatly refused. "Won't this make Fellow Daoist Lu Yao blame us for our incompetence?"
Yun Zhenxian lowered his head even more and said, "Then what do you think, Grandmaster..."
"You're right to be cautious. So, first go to the Supreme Dao to gather some intelligence, and then send someone to check around the Nine Mountain Realm..."
Taoist Zaohua seemed to think Yun Zhenxian's caution was justified. After thinking for a moment, he said, "The main thing is to find out whether Taishang Dao and Yaochi have any help heading to the Nine Mountain Realm."
"yes!"
Taoist Zaohua waved his hand and asked Yun Zhenxian to leave first. Yun Zhenxian bowed his head respectfully and backed out of the three palaces. He walked a long way before clenching his fists.
He raised his head and first looked at the Hao Ri Golden Summit with an ugly expression. Then he looked at the Three Palaces and his face became even darker.
Yun Zhenxian thought about it and did nothing. Instead, he sent out a communication talisman.
After a while, Yun Fan rushed to Yun Zhenxian's residence and said respectfully, "Ancestor?"
"A few days ago, I remember that the Lu people went to Qianqi Peak to allocate supplies?"
"Yes." Yun Fan was a little confused. "Didn't you, the Grandmaster, agree to that?"
"What did they take?"
“…”
Yunfan looked a little embarrassed.
"You are the master of Qianqi Peak, and you don't even know what they took?"
"Holy Ancestor, if you ask what they didn't take, I know."
Yun Fan’s answer made Yun Zhenxian furious and his face flushed.
Seeing his expression, Yun Fan was even more puzzled and asked, "Aren't those resources used to set up the formation within the sect?"
"Setting up a formation?" Yun Zhenxian looked up at the mountain in the distance where the formation was engraved, and said through gritted teeth, "They are from the Jiushan Sect!"
"Nine Mountain Sect!?"
"And Shi Nandang!" Yun Zhenxian was no fool. He figured out everything after connecting the causes and consequences. "He's Zheng Fa in disguise!"
Yun Fan was speechless: "Stone Ancestor?"
"You still call him Shizu?"
Yun Fan slowly closed his mouth, his expression still in disbelief, and simply asked, "Ancestor..."
"That Taoist of Creation told me that. I saw his expression and it didn't seem fake."
After hearing this, Yun Fan's face immediately turned pale, and he felt a little confused: "Those people from the Lu tribe?"
"I don't know who's real and who's fake, but they took my Haori Mountain treasure trove, so they definitely didn't use it all on the formation... They might even have tampered with this Golden Sun Burning Heaven Formation."
Yun Fan felt a chill run down his spine and asked again, "Then Master, how can you be sure that I'm not..."
Yun Zhenxian glanced at him and said, "You're too much on Shi Nandang's side... Besides, if you were him, why would they need to fake my order?"
"Why..."
"Their main goal is the Golden Sun Burning Heaven Formation!" Yun Zhenxian seemed to have truly understood, "Only people of the Lu clan can access this formation."
Yun Fan understood what was said. He thought for a moment and asked, "Master, why don't you tell Master Creation about this?"
Yun Zhenxian's expression became even more bitter, and the pain penetrated deep into his heart.
"The Taoist of Creation cannot be trusted."
“…”
"The White Bone Demon Ancestor, the Gu God, even the White Lotus Ancestor and several Lu clan elders in the sect were probably killed by him!"
Yunfan widened his eyes.
"this……"
"That's just my guess." Yun Zhenxian pinched the armrest of the chair with his fingers. "But one thing I'm sure of: he must have betrayed the ancestor! Otherwise, why wouldn't he dare to send a message to Leiyin Temple?"
“…”
Yun Fan almost understood the current situation.
"In Haori Mountain, there are countless Nine Mountain Sect spies, and there's also the Golden Immortal traitor, the Creation Demon Ancestor."
Yun Zhenxian nodded silently.
"Grandmaster, what should we do?"
Yun Fan was also panicked now.
"I've managed to stabilize Fortune for now," Yun Zhenxian said through gritted teeth. "While he's here, those people from the Nine Mountains Sect won't dare to act recklessly. I'm taking this opportunity to reorganize the formation and at least prevent it from falling into the hands of the Nine Mountains Sect."
"As for the Taoist of Creation, once I gain control of the formation, I will have a way to deal with him."
Yun Fan understood that the ancestor was planning to fish in troubled waters, using the power of the Taoist of Creation to suppress the secret spies of the Nine Mountains Sect within the sect, but at the same time he had to be on guard against the Taoist of Creation.
"This is too risky..."
Yunfan said worriedly.
"So, I want you to secretly send a message to Leiyin Temple!" Yun Zhenxian instructed, "Tell the Holy Ancestor everything about Haori Mountain and ask him to send someone!"
Yun Fan felt relieved after hearing Yun Zhenxian's arrangements.
Yun Zhenxian waved his hand and said, "Go down. Remember, don't alert the enemy."
"yes!"
…
Just when Yun Fan was thinking about how to find an opportunity to inform Leiyin Temple, Leiyin Temple underwent changes that no one expected.
A figure shrouded in Buddha's light rose into the sky from Xizhou and turned into a small golden bean in the blue sky.
On the land of Xizhou, the sound of chanting Buddha was in unison, and the Buddha's light on that person was radiant, like a surging tide, sweeping from west to east, sweeping across the entire Xuanwei sky.
The Nine Mountain Realm, Haori Mountain, and even the underworld can see the overwhelming golden light.
A voice sounded in the Buddha's light.
"I am the Mahayana Buddha Lu Yao."
This sound penetrated the heavens and the worlds, and even Zheng Fa in the modern world could hear it.
He stood up, looked at the sky, confused, and listened carefully to Lu Yao's words.
"The emergence of the Primordial Purple Qi is a chance for a major revolution in the destiny of the human race. However, the secret of the Purple Qi is clear—only when the human race is united and the world is united can this blessing be realized."
Lu Yao's tone was gentle, grand, and domineering.
Zheng Fa frowned and looked at the Hongmeng purple energy in the sun, thinking that Lu Yao's understanding of Hongmeng purple energy was much deeper than he thought.
"Although my knowledge is limited, I am willing to do my part for the affairs of the human race." Lu Yao said slowly, "I intend to convene a Daluo Dharma Assembly, inviting Dao Fruits from all over the world to join the Shang people in building the foundation for eternity, re-establishing the principles of heaven and earth, and forging eternal unity."
Daluo Dharma Assembly?
Lu Yao prepared for so long, just for this?
Zheng Fa was somewhat dazed, but even more confused - Lu Yao's idea was easy to guess, probably to unify all the cultivators in the world.
This Lu Yao has a much deeper understanding of Hongmeng Purple Qi than I do.
But what puzzled Zheng Fa even more was why Lu Yao had such confidence?
Behind the Supreme Dao there is the Dao Master.
Not to mention that the Emperor Jiuyou of the underworld is his mortal enemy.
But what he could understand was that Lu Yao's ambition, or vision, was bigger than he thought.
No wonder he doesn't care so much about who has the Hongmeng Purple Qi.
To a certain extent, after he unified the immortal way, it would not matter who held the Hongmeng Purple Qi, the result would be the same for him.
"Lu Yao, what's going on..." The old man hurried over and asked Zheng Fa, "What are you going to do?"
"Let's wait and see." Zheng Fa thought for a moment and shook his head. "Lu Yao's path must first subdue all the immortals in the world and see how the various Xuanwei sects respond."
The old man nodded slowly.
Lu Yao has great ambitions and naturally faces many difficulties. The biggest question is, why do the various factions listen to him?
If the Daluo Dharma Assembly is successful, it will be very difficult for Zheng Fa to preserve the Hongmeng Purple Qi - with his current strength, he will not be able to deal with the Dao Fruit of the World no matter what.
But the problem is that the contradiction between Xuanwei and others has existed for a long time and is even difficult to reverse. Why is Lu Yao so confident?
Zheng Fa and Old Man Bai exchanged a glance, but another worry was brewing in their hearts:
Lu Yao is a man of deep calculations. He always acts in secret. If he is not absolutely sure, he will not be so ostentatious.
