Qingzhou, chaos
. When Chen Jing died, the Chen family immediately knew about it. The Chen family masters who were ambushed in the cities under the command of Taixu Sect came out together to meet the other Chen family members.
The Chen family masters fought a fierce battle with the Taixu Sect masters and were defeated first. When the reinforcements from the other three families arrived, the Taixu Sect retreated into the mountain gate and the Chen family withdrew their troops.
Then the Lin family, the Lu family, and the Yu family took control of the Tiandao Sect, the Wuji Palace, and the Tiandao Pavilion respectively in advance, and purged the other disciples of the three sects. Countless disciples of the three sects were killed, and countless disciples fled. Among the major sects in the entire Qingzhou, only the Taixu Sect was left, and it was also severely damaged.
The disciples of the four major families settled in the three sects on a large scale. The sect plaques of the three sects were taken down and replaced with the family plaques of the three families. The four major families were officially born, and the news quickly swept the entire cultivation world.
Before the immortal cultivation forces in other states could react, the four major families attacked again. They used chickens to lay eggs, not only the four major sects in Qingzhou, but also the other medium-sized forces. Several forces were destroyed one after another, and even the Chen family occupied the mountain gate of a medium-sized sect and restored the Chen family.
Then the four families joined forces and led a large number of people to kill the Taixu Sect, which was still in shock, to remove the Taixu Sect, the only remaining large sect in Qingzhou. The Taixu Sect summoned all the people and tried their best to resist, and invited foreign aid to resist the Yu family and the Lu family. The Qingzhou War broke out.

"It's been a few years since we were stable, and we have to move again. It's a pity to lose all these things."
The children of the Qingyun Sect and the Lin family complained that the four major families controlled most of Qingzhou, but they did not stop their expansion. They sent envoys to coerce the other Qingzhou forces to submit to the four major families and become their vassals.
Basically, the remaining forces have given in, because the power of the four major families is stronger than the previous four sects, and the legends of the four major families have greatly shocked them, and few dare to resist.
The Qingyun Sect also has envoys from the four major families, who are from the Lu family. The Qingyun Sect has temporarily concealed the past, but Lin Batian knows that it will not be concealed for long, so he has already started to withdraw the Lin family's children.
As the saying goes, a broken family is worth a fortune. Even if the Lin family has moved here not long ago, they have put in a lot of effort here, and many Lin family children are reluctant to leave.
"Don't be long-winded, don't care too much about the trivial things. The most important thing in the family is the people. As long as we are still here, everything can be taken back,"
Lin Die said to several people. She was also distressed, but what if she was distressed? They didn't have the strength to fight the four major families.
Several Lin family members did not dare to say much and left quickly. Lin Jiang stepped forward and said, "Third Aunt, have you arranged the route?"
"It's arranged. Some will go to Bingzhou and some will go to Zhongzhou."
"It's not a place to stay for a long time, it's not a long-term strategy,"
Lin Jiang said. If a force wants to be strong, it must have a stable territory, so that it can develop. For example, those high-level spiritual medicines are available in the wilderness, but they are all guarded by monsters. No one can guarantee that you will win the monsters. No matter how many times you win, you will lose it once you lose, so most forces grow their own crops.
There is also a source of money. If a force wants to grow, it must have a constant flow of fresh blood. It needs to select talented disciples from generation to generation. This process is very expensive. Without a stable source of money, it can't last long. This is why casual cultivators cannot become a climate, and it is also the reason why casual cultivators dream of having a territory.
"I know, and so does my father, but this is an extraordinary period, there is nothing we can do."
"Okay, I will deal with the Five Elements Sect, but I can't deal with the Zhongxing Sect and the Yunjian Sect."
"I understand, the Lin family's foundation is enough to deal with them for a while."
Lin Die nodded. The Lin family's erratic state is actually very bad. If it cannot be stabilized, then the Zhongxing Sect and the Yunjian Sect may not necessarily form an alliance with the Lin family.
The disciples of the Lin family in the Qingyun Sect quickly withdrew, but the Qingyun Sect remained. The Qingyun Sect was originally a local sect in Qingzhou, with many local disciples. They would become vassals of the four major families and provide information for the Lin family.
Lin Batian did not leave either. He stayed to observe the situation and take the opportunity to attack the four major families at any time. A gentleman takes revenge, all day long, he believes in this.
Lin Jiang followed Lin Die to Bingzhou, but not long after he stayed, Lin Jiang also received an order from the Five Elements Sect to investigate the situation in Qingzhou, and Lin Jiang secretly lurked back to Qingzhou.
Lin Jiang traveled to many areas of Qingzhou and learned about the battlefield situation. Taixu Sect was about to collapse. The vassals of Taixu Sect were either destroyed by the four major families or surrendered to them, leaving only Taixu Sect struggling to support.
"Master, there is no hope for Taixu Sect"
"Yes, I know"
Lin Batian sighed. Taixu Sect was really alone. They invited two Hedao ancestors as external aid, but they would not fight to the death for Taixu Sect. At the level of returning to the void, the number and quality were not as good as the four major families. It was only a matter of time before the mountain gate was broken.
"It's better to leave early and make plans early."
"I'm not willing to do that."
"You're not as strong as others, you have to admit it. Only by living can everything be possible."
"You left just like that. I'm not convinced. I want to try again."
"How to try?"
Lin Jiang asked. He admired Lin Batian for this. His willpower was extremely firm. Even if he was in a desperate situation, he would not easily admit defeat. In this respect, Lin Jiang was far inferior to him.
"There are still many people from the four major sects in Qingzhou. It will take a very long time for the four major families to completely digest them. I want to gather them and form an alliance to resist the four major families."
"This is indeed a good idea, but it is difficult for the head of the family to do it. The head of the family is not strong enough for them to follow their lead."
"So I need the signboard of Taixu Sect."
"The head of the family is trying to fish in troubled waters. With two Hedaos by his side, how can the head of the family do it?"
"Fight hard. Didn't you ask me to fight hard before?"
"That was because time was too tight. I couldn't think of any other way. Now we have time."
Lin Jiang said. He was really wronged. At that time, time was so tight. How could he think of a perfect plan? He could only let Lin Batian survive.
"I won't tell you so much, just find a place to hide and practice well. You have been slacking off in practice in the past few years."
"I am busy. I haven't had a day off."
"Don't lose sight of the main point. You can leave now."
Lin Batian waved his hand and said no more. Lin Jiang had to leave. Now he could report to the Five Elements Sect, and he also had to find a place to hide.
Lin Batian hesitated for a long time and activated the Space-Time Mirror. The next moment, he appeared in the mountain gate of Taixu Sect. Wei Dao and others found Lin Batian at the first time.
"How did Brother Lin do it?"
Wei Dao asked. The combined Dao of Lu and Yu blocked the space near the mountain gate of Taixu Sect. They couldn't even use the teleportation array. How did Lin Batian get in?
"Don't worry about how I got in. I just want to ask you, do you want the Taixu Sect's inheritance to be extinct?"
"What do you mean?"
"I can leave once more and take twenty of you with me."
"Why are you helping us?"
"For money."
"Lin Batian, don't you hate the four major families? You..."
"Stop talking nonsense. My hatred is my personal hatred. It has nothing to do with my making money. Whether to cooperate or not is just a word."
Lin Batian said coldly, without giving them a good look. These guys are also bullies who only care about the weak and fear the strong, and they are full of bad water. Lin Batian helped them so hard before, but they actually put a mark on him, so they can only be bad guys.
"What do you want?"
"I don't lack skills, I don't lack magic weapons, I want spiritual medicine, one hundred fifth-level spiritual medicines that are more than a thousand years old, I will take twenty people away, and at most two people will be able to transform into gods."
After listening to this, Wei Dao frowned. Spiritual medicines above the fifth level, or a thousand years old, are not cheap and cannot be bought outside.
"I agreed."
But Wei Dao still agreed. The incident happened suddenly. The four major families combined to block the space. They couldn't even send out the seeds. Now, except for Lin Batian, no one could help them.
Wei Dao asked Lin Batian to give them half a day, and then Wei Dao immediately summoned a group of senior officials to discuss, select seeds, and follow Lin Batian to leave to protect the inheritance of Taixu Sect.
This meeting was extremely intense. Everyone knew that those who stayed would be miserable and most would die. This was the only chance to survive. If it weren't for Wei Dao and his efforts to maintain it, Taixu Sect would be in chaos first.
After severe discussions, Taixu Sect finally made a choice. Except for the two youngest Huashen, the rest of the twenty places were all given to Jindan and Yuanying. These were the people with the best talents and understandings in Taixu Sect. The rest gave up.
Twenty people carried more than ten large storage bags on them. They wanted to take away everything they could. This was the capital for the revival of Taixu Sect.
"Lin Batian, this is your reward, I hope you can keep your promise."
"Go to Yunzhou and ask around when you have time. I, Lin Batian, always keep my word."
"Okay, thank you very much, fellow Daoist."
"In two days, I will attack the ancestral lands of the four major families. This is your only chance to break out. The better off you are, the better.
" "You..."
"Don't thank me too much. I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing this for revenge."
Lin Batian's expression was extremely cold. He said no more and directly activated the Time and Space Mirror. A suction force swept up the twenty people, and then disappeared in front of everyone in the Taixu Sect. Wei Dao and others were left looking at each other, and finally sighed helplessly.
