Chapter 88: Jianghu
On Mount Taiyi, the old Taoist priest has been imparting knowledge to his disciples these days.
He told the head of Zhou Nanfeng that he should be willing to give up his disciples.
But he himself couldn't bear to let go, so he could only teach everyone who needed to be taught, so that he wouldn't go out and die inexplicably.
On the Tao-Seeking Stone on Mount Taiyi, an old Taoist was sitting there preaching, and the people on Taiyi Peak below were listening very seriously; they were not stupid people.
My master has already made it very clear.
There is a great possibility that you will die in the desert this time, but there are also great opportunities here. All the Quanzhen disciples in the past have gained great benefits from the trials.
At a time like this, with lives at stake, how could you not listen carefully?
The sermon lasted all afternoon and ended just as the sun was about to set outside the cave.
"The time should be about right. Daoyi is an old man who followed Senior Daoyan. The five Taoist sects will give him face. Moreover, they really need such an opportunity for the new disciple to see the world. It is estimated that in two days, it will be the day of the alliance of the five Taoist sects."
After the old Taoist priest Long Xuzi finished preaching to the crowd, he counted the days with his fingers.
This kind of thing requires the five major Taoist sects to contact the Ming Dynasty. This has been the rule for thousands of years.
But as long as there are no major problems in the contact, the five Taoist sects will set off soon.
Thinking of this, the old Taoist turned to Li Mubai and said:
"Why don't you go with me this time, Uncle Master? Just to relax?"
After spending these days with Li Mubai, the old Taoist finally saw what a heavenly being was.
Just in the past few days when he was daydreaming while teaching his disciples, he had breakthroughs twice.
His cultivation level is now catching up with that of the head master, and he can be said to be one of the top people in Quanzhen.
No wonder Lu Zu's sword inheritance chose to accept him as his next-generation disciple. His talent was enough to make most people kneel down and sigh that they were inferior to him.
"I?"
Li Mubai did not expect that Long Xuzi would invite him to go to the Western Regions, but after thinking about it carefully, he understood that he wanted him to protect his disciples.
This old man actually put a lot of effort into it. On the one hand, he told his disciple that it was very dangerous and that he would definitely not help, but on the other hand, he also wanted to protect his disciple.
"Actually, that's fine. Since I can't relax, I can just walk around with my disciples."
Li Mubai smiled and did not refuse Long Xuzi's request. He came to Zhongnan Mountain originally to relax, but it did not have any good effect.
In this case, it would be a good idea to protect your disciples.
"It's settled then."
The old Taoist priest's whole face was wrinkled with laughter.
After saying this, he stood up and returned to his place of meditation, as if he was afraid that Li Mubai would go back on his word.
Li Mubai shrugged his shoulders, looked at the old Taoist's flying figure, and couldn't help shaking his head.
Do I look like someone who would go back on his word so easily?
“All parents in the world love each other!”
…………
While the elders in the sect were thinking about providing more insurance for their disciples, these disciples were not idle either.
While they were trying hard to absorb the teachings of their master, they were also working hard to practice, and even Qiao Yuanshan was no exception.
He was lazy, but he didn't want to die inexplicably in the Western Desert.
This is an age of great contention: contention for fame, profit, and longevity.
The Ghost Town in the Western Regions is the first trial field for the five Taoist sects. These young men will soon compete to see who is the best in this trial field.
It was also the beginning of the struggle among the five Taoist sects for who would be the leader of Taoism.
This fight is bound to be fierce.
Especially today when the path to becoming an immortal may be opened, this is likely to be more intense than usual.
The Three Mountains Talismans, the Leader of Taoism, the Path to Immortality, even though Qiao Yuanshan did not quite understand the specific meanings of some of them, he knew that there must be endless struggles involved.
"Sure enough, Master probably guessed it a month ago when we were initiated, otherwise he wouldn't have said that to me."
When Qiao Yuanshan was still undergoing trials at the mountain gate, the old Taoist priest once said with a sigh: Even immortals have their own world, and no one can control their fate in this world, especially at this time.
Qiao Yuanshan didn’t quite understand it at the time, but now he understands. Isn’t this talking about the current situation?
"According to Master, if you really want to transcend, then the only way is to become an immortal. However, this road has been full of white bones for thousands of years, and few people have been able to reach the top."
"But since this is the only way, how can I not go on?"
Qiao Yuanshan has already begun to have a heart that seeks the truth, and what he seeks is freedom.
…………
Just as the old Taoist priest Longxuzi thought, within just three or two days, Daoyi had already used the art of sound transmission to inform the head sect leader Nan Daocheng that all five sects had agreed.
Then the leaders of the five sects gathered in Quanzhen, joined forces with Daming, and jointly set a date for departure.
This is an alliance.
The five Taoist sects are for a suitable trial, while Daming is for Bai Xiaosheng's reward.
No matter which force it is, it has been proven that the puppet man in the Third Department of the Ming Dynasty’s Ministry of War belongs to a man named Bai Xiaosheng.
And this person is someone no one can afford to offend, especially since he demands a reward. If it cannot be completed on time, the consequences will be terrible.
The think tank of the Ming Nirvana Organization has weighed the abilities of Bai Xiaosheng from various descriptions. According to the description, he is at least above the level of an immortal. Based on the assessed numerical personal physical fitness, an immortal is at least two million times more capable than a human.
Its speed can reach 20,000 km/s, and its strength can easily reach millions of tons. It is impossible for humans to deal with such a monster.
The Ming Dynasty has only one choice to fulfill its contract. If it fails to do so, it will suffer a dimensionality reduction attack from Bai Xiaosheng.
Therefore, Daming naturally took this matter very seriously.
Especially the eight Taoists who had followed Yao Guangxiao. Since they woke up and heard that Daming was doing business with Bai Xiaosheng, the eight of them couldn't sleep at night.
Bai Xiaosheng’s business is fatal!
Even though Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty was fine at that time, wasn't the reason why Chen Youliang lost the Battle of Poyang Lake because he did not fulfill his promise?
Since the eight people woke up, the first thought was that they must not breach the contract!
With this idea in mind, they organized this event.
The purpose is to obtain the inscriptionless stele in the ancient city of Loulan.
As long as we get the inscriptionless stele and the basalt statue, this disaster of the Ming Dynasty will be over.
All you need to do is prepare well to deal with the celestial beings who will come in the future.
………
On November 3rd, Taoists from the five sects of Zhongnan Mountain, Longhu Mountain, Gezhao Mountain, Wanshou Palace, and Maoshan Mountain descended the mountain.
The monitoring spies were directly scared.
What is this for?
At the foot of Mount Zhongnan, people could even look up and see the immortal flying across the sky on his sword.
The clouds in the sky were turned into long sword marks by the long sword.
………
But not everyone is afraid.
In the distance, the white-robed monk Bujie was watching the scene with a smile.
"These people are finally moving."
Thanks to Youshu Soymilk Machine for the reward of 100 Qidian coins!
