Chapter 585 Discussion, Donglu Response, "The Stars and Gods Lead to the Sky", the Great Wall of Stars and Moons, looking for the Son of the Stars!
In the central area of Hezhou, Donglu, a towering sacred mountain rises up into the sky, with clouds and mists. From time to time, huge cranes fly around the mountain, making pleasant whistling sounds.
At this moment, at the top of the sacred mountain, inside a golden-roofed hall, the atmosphere was solemn and awe-inspiring.
Inside the hall, the two factions were lined up on the left and right, with nine chairs on each side. The left one was headed by a Taoist named Qian, who had a fair face and no beard, and was extremely handsome, but his eyes revealed a sense of vicissitudes of life over the years. He was the current head of the Tianxing Sect, Astrologer.
On the right sat a Taoist priest with white hair and a youthful face, also with a solemn expression. She was none other than Huan Guzi, the headmaster of the Yanyue Sect, one of the two major holy places in East Continent.
"Everyone is here. Everyone, you should have seen the intelligence. The Ghost Worship Cult and the True Blood Cult have gone crazy. After our covert efforts, the Ghost Worship Cult and the True Blood Cult forces that invaded our East Continent have been severely damaged.
But I never expected how the Ghost Worship Sect and the True Blood Sect were stimulated to go so crazy this time. This matter is of great importance, and our Tianxing Sect dare not take the initiative. Fellow Taoists from the Yanyue Sect, let's discuss this matter together."
The astrologer frowned, looked at Huan Gu Zi apologetically, and then spoke to everyone in the hall.
He had planned everything, but he had never expected that his two old friends from the Ghost Worshiping Sect and the True Blood Sect would take such a risky move. Now, after detecting the unusual movements on the Crimson Sea, he could only quickly pull the monks from the Moon-Burning Sect over to discuss the matter.
Anyone who can have a chair in this hall today, regardless of gender, age or status, is a master with extraordinary aura and has attained the status of an immortal.
Those who have not yet achieved immortality are not qualified to attend today's meeting.
The names of the Eight Heavenly Stars Immortals and the Eight Moon-Covering Immortals are well-known throughout the world and have a huge influence on many forces in the entire East Land. It can be said that the decision made in the hall today has determined the fate of the East Land.
For such a major event, even Astrologer, the number one cultivator in East Land, did not dare to act rashly and dictatorially. Instead, he summoned the cultivators from Yanyue Sect to discuss countermeasures together.
The cultivators picked up the jade slip from the golden plate and probed their spiritual consciousness into it. When they saw the numerous Ghost Worshiping Sect cultivators and True Blood Sect cultivators marching in formation on the Crimson Sea, their expressions suddenly changed even though they had practiced for many years and had seen countless storms.
Although they had received news of the joint invasion of the Ghost Worshiping Cult and the True Blood Cult before their arrival, they never expected that the war situation would evolve to this point.
"This is crazy, really crazy. The Ghost Worshiping Cult and the True Blood Cult are simply treating us as nothing. This is outrageous!"
"Tens of thousands of years ago, it was always our ancestors who attacked the Crimson Sea and the Western Continent. The Ghost Worshiping Cult and the True Blood Cult attacked from dangerous positions. Although we, the descendants of the later generations, were not worthy, we were able to hold our ground safely without losing an inch of territory."
"However, the more we tolerate them, the more rampant the Ghost Worship Cult and the True Blood Cult become. When these bastards invaded the land of Qian Kingdom, I suggested to the Sect Master that we cut off all their claws, but the Sect Master rejected this proposal. Now that the villains are rampant, we can no longer tolerate them. Sect Master, Senior Astrology, I think this time we must come out in full force and be able to fight and dare to fight, so that we can stop the war!"
"Otherwise, how can we face our ancestors and..."
As soon as the astrologer finished speaking, the first person under the head of the Yanyue Sect, a bearded monk with a cane, stood up suddenly and spoke loudly. There was a sense of iron-blooded murderous intent in his words, and the sound of iron horses and swords could be faintly echoed in the hall.
"I didn't expect that after hundreds of years, Zhang Tieguai, you have made such amazing progress in your cultivation that you can even cause such a strange phenomenon in this golden palace. You are now close to breaking through to the ninth level of the Immortal Stage."
Hearing the strange voice, a female cultivator in palace dress holding a strange lotus lantern from the Tianxing Sect, who was sitting fifth, had a strange look in her eyes, but she smiled and stood up and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, calm down first. Even if we are going to fight, how and to what extent should we fight? Should we completely tear our faces apart and fight with cultivators of all realms in a chaotic battle or should we restrain each other? Don't we need to discuss these things later?"
"Of course, my opinion is the same as Fellow Daoist Zhang's. Since the True Blood Sect and the Ghost Worship Sect are coming with such force, let's join forces and fight them."
"Junior sister, what you said makes sense. Master, let's have a fight with them. I also want to see how much progress those old friends from the Ghost Worshiping Sect have made over the years. They actually dared to come to our door. Could it be that they want to take advantage of my Li Yan's flying sword?"
The sound of clanging swords was heard, and the first person under the leader of the Tianxing Sect, a middle-aged Taoist with a beautiful beard and a flying sword, also spoke aloud.
The sword behind him was inlaid with many strange crystals, a total of 108, arranged in a strange formation, which corresponded to the number of Zhoutian, corresponding to the stars above and the geography below. A strange aura constantly entered and exited the middle-aged Taoist's body.
"Zhou You Liuxu Sword Intention, Fellow Daoist Li Yan is indeed a genius in swordsmanship. He will achieve Daoism in the future. Astrologer, you are so lucky."
Huan Gu Zi glanced at the middle-aged Taoist priest's strange vision in surprise, and a hint of admiration flashed in her eyes.
In her opinion, among the Eight Immortals of Tianxing and Yanyue, the one who is most likely to break through the shackles of the immortal platform and condense the Dao fruit is undoubtedly Li Yan. The Tianxing Sect is indeed favored by the fortune of the ancient star realm and has such a good talent, while her Yanyue Sect is now one step behind.
With everyone in the hall talking at once, an order was quickly issued. In the secret room of the Daqian Palace, a eunuch in a red robe crawled towards the center of the palace with a golden arrow in his hand.
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened. The Supreme Sect has issued a secret order that the True Blood Sect and the Ghost Worship Sect are about to invade. The Supreme Sect requires Your Majesty to evacuate all the people within 30,000 miles of the sea to the rear. No mistakes can be made!"
Inside the Daqian Palace, the man in dragon robes who was drinking and having fun with a beautiful woman looked at the star and moon mark on the golden arrow, and his face suddenly changed! "Well, although the king of Qian country has some small ideas, he is definitely not a fool. His previous actions were nothing more than trying to get more benefits from us and raise his own status. Now he naturally knows what to do."
"Now that you have all decided to fight, let's fight the Ghost Worshiping Cult and the True Blood Cult. But before that, I have already discussed with fellow Taoist Huan Guzi, and there are still some things that I need you to convey."
Zhan Xingzi and Huan Guzi exchanged a glance, their eyes wandering around, but they spoke softly again, "Our Tianxing Sect and Yanyue Sect share the same roots, which you all naturally know. Now it's nothing more than a pair of flowers blooming together, each with its own characteristics. Our ancestors had different understandings of the Ten Thousand Stars Divine Illumination Sutra, and eventually parted ways."
"When our ancestor Wan Xingzi passed away, he inscribed his own method of cultivation, 'The Ten Thousand Stars Divine Illumination Sutra', on the front of the Jade Disk of Stars. On the back is a volume of martial arts sutra 'The Ten Thousand Stars Divine Heavenly Guide' that our ancestor simplified in order to sort out the true sutras."
"Of course, the martial arts classics are not important. They are just jokes by our ancestors and are difficult to understand. However, the Ten Thousand Stars Divine Illumination Sutra is the fundamental magic of our two sects."
"You should all have known that Daoist Fellow Huan and I secretly sent people to search for the world's spiritual geniuses. Now that we are in a great crisis, Daoist Fellow Huan and I have discussed that the entire East Continent must work together to resist the foreign enemies. Since the Ghost Worshiping Cult and the True Blood Cult are attacking us in large numbers, we have no choice but to advance our plans a little bit."
“Whether you are from the royal family or the younger generations of the clans, all outstanding cultivators in our human world who have stood out in the war against the Ghost Worshiping Cult and the True Blood Cult should have the opportunity to come to our Tianxing Sect, receive our dedicated training, and observe some of the top scriptures that we allow!”
“And for the most outstanding cultivators among this group of young people, we can make an exception. No matter whether they are independent cultivators or cultivators from aristocratic families, they can all enter the ancestor’s secret place and observe the Jade Disk of the Stars for three days!”
"This most outstanding cultivator who comes out will be the 'Son of All Stars' of our Tianxing Sect and Yanyue Sect. Fellow Daoist Huan and I will devote all our efforts to guiding his cultivation in the future, helping him achieve the realm of immortality or even the realm of Dao fruit."
The astrologer's voice was not loud, but the words he uttered were like a huge rock dropped into the hall, immediately causing huge waves.
Upon hearing the news, the Eight Immortals of Tianxing and the Eight Immortals of Yanyue could not help but reveal envy on their faces.
It's fine if it's some bullshit martial arts manual called "The Divine Guide of the Stars", which is more of a commemorative value than a practical one. But this is the "The Divine Illumination of the Ten Thousand Stars Sutra", and many of them have no chance to read this sutra.
Li Yan, the most powerful immortal monk of Tianxing Sect, created the Zhouyou Liuxu Sword Intent after years of understanding from observing this sutra. Not only was he invincible among those of the same level, but fighting against opponents of higher levels was also a common thing for him.
And now, amidst the great changes, the two masters are willing to spend so much money to motivate the major forces in East Land. This is truly a great fortune for this generation of cultivators!
Needless to say, the title of Son of the Stars is a natural one. Simply becoming a candidate for the title is enough to make talented monks from all major forces salivate.
And this is also an open conspiracy!
The eyes of the immortals flashed, and they all understood the key point.
The world is bustling with people, all for the sake of profit. The world is in turmoil, all for the sake of profit.
If they want the major forces in East Land to work for them, it is impossible without offering some bargaining chips.
The previous performance of Qian Kingdom sounded a wake-up call for them. In this case, the Sons of the Stars and the candidates are an excellent motivation for these major forces.
Don't you want to make progress? Don't you want to stand out? As long as you have this potential, now the Tianxing Sect and Yanyue Sect are willing to open up many of their scriptures and even let you observe the stars and jade disks, regardless of your background, so that you can lay the foundation for prosperity for thousands of years. It depends on whether these forces or independent cultivators are tempted.
The Tianxing Sect and the Yanyue Sect have jointly ruled the East Continent for countless years. You could say they are overbearing, but they have never done anything to break their promises or do anything secretive. Now that the two sects have stepped forward, there is no doubt that everyone in the world will fall into their trap.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Good! The two masters are far-sighted!"
All the immortals stood up and saluted.
Each of them has their own clansmen and large and small forces behind them. As the saying goes, those who are close to the water get the moon first. This news is not bad news for them.
After all, there are always more monks than porridge, and no one will complain about having too many cultivation resources under their control.
"Okay, stop flattering me. The Star Child Project represents the future of our species. You should all understand the limits of this project. The final list of candidates still needs to be approved by me and fellow Daoist Astrologer."
"And this is not so easy. We will use the 30,000-li sea border of Qian Nation as the boundary and use it as a battlefield to build the Star-Moon Great Wall. No matter how talented the cultivators are, if they want to become candidates for the Son of the Stars, they must enter the Star-Moon Great Wall and fight."
"True gold is not afraid of fire. Our two sects have plenty of ordinary geniuses. What we need is a true genius! What we need is a truly powerful cultivator who can fight alongside us in the later stage and change the situation!"
"Everyone, remember the humiliation today. I hope that we can completely flatten the Crimson Sea in our lifetime and turn the entire Crimson Sea and even the Western Continent into our pasture!"
Nun Huan suddenly stood up and spoke in a sonorous voice, with a crescent moon suddenly appearing between her brows.
"Yes, I have a list here. They are all talented monks in this period of time. There are a total of sixteen people selected. These people are all the best of the time."
"Now each of you take a copy and tell them the news about the Children of the Stars. Let them decide for themselves whether or not to go to the Star-Moon Great Wall to fight the evildoers of the Ghost Worshiping Cult and the True Blood Cult!"
“No matter how talented they are, if they are wicked and have evil deeds, and do not have a lot of lives of True Blood Sect and Ghost Worship Sect members in their hands, they will never be trained by us!”
The astrologer chuckled and stood up. With a flip of his hand, sixteen pieces of letter paper fell into the hands of the immortals under the influence of starlight.
Li Yan flipped his palm and saw the figure of a handsome Taoist priest clearly reflected in the letter.
"Remember, these sixteen people are talented cultivators found by our Tianxing Sect and Yanyue Sect's disciples who were scattered all over the world. We selected the best of the best and only then did we pick these sixteen people. These geniuses always have some privileges."
"In order to prevent them from missing out on the news of the Star-Moon Great Wall Trial, you will go there first. You can also take the opportunity to observe the character and cultivation of these talented cultivators!"
"After we finish this, let's go to the Qian Kingdom's sea border and wait for our old friends from the Ghost Worshiping Cult and the True Blood Cult to arrive!"
"I also want to see what my two old friends are going to do!"
There was a twinkle of starlight in the astrologer's eyes, and he spoke with great ambition.
After the Yanyue Sect's immortals left, Li Yan was about to turn around and leave when a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
It is the voice of the astrologer.
"Li Yan, take a good look at this young man who calls himself Yichengzi!"
"This person is very important!"
The same message echoed in the mind of the female cultivator holding the lotus lantern.
"Hexian, take a good look at this young man called Situ Zhaixing!"
"This person is very important!"
He Xian and Li Yan paused, then turned into a beam of light and flew away! At this moment, in Nuanyu Tower.
Yichengzi, Yichengzi, the world-shaking Chunyang Yichengzi has lost contact! At this moment, a sword light suddenly descended.
When the middle-aged Taoist saw the situation in the room, his face suddenly turned dark! (End of this chapter)
