Chapter 118 Listening to Music in the Building and Encountering Storms
In the small building of Qiu Mansion.
Lu Feng sat quietly in the room, holding the bronze magic mirror and looking at the top of his head.
Mirror reflection, a perspective that mortals cannot see.
The wishes of the entire city gathered here, turning into an acre of blue cloud of wishes covering Lu Feng's head. In the blue cloud were the voices of thousands of people praying for peace.
“It looks like a lot, but compared to the willpower gathered from the wizarding world, it’s far behind in both quality and quantity!”
Lu Feng shook his head and controlled the Qingmu Spirit Realm and the Yin Gui Spirit Realm to absorb the incense and vows above his head.
The land and water nurture the people.
The concentration of spiritual energy in the Trandi secondary continent is higher than that in the two cities under the Red Leaf Society, and the physical fitness of ordinary people raised here is generally better than that in the world of earthly immortals.
If the body is strong, the spirit will be strong, and the quality of the incense and vows contributed will naturally be higher.
In addition, the Red Leaf Principality has many more territories than the two cities here, so the number is naturally superior.
However, Lu Feng would not despise the incense and prayers here.
Anyway, they are all basic resources for cultivating the spiritual realm. Even if the quality is a little poor, the consumption will be almost the same when they are injected into the spiritual realm.
With the surging willpower, Lu Feng controlled 30% to flow into the Yin Gui Spirit Realm and 70% to flow into the Qing Mu Spirit Realm.
Lu Feng still has his focus in the cultivation of the two spiritual realms.
The Yin Gui Spirit Realm is his apparent strength, which is enough for him, while the Qing Mu Spirit Realm is the foundation of his future, so naturally he should have more of it.
The power of will injected into the Qingmu Spirit Realm had little effect. The energy-absorbing ancient tree saplings only had to shake their leaves slightly to digest and absorb it all without any pressure.
The Yin Ghost Spirit Realm is more dynamic, with the silver moon disk hanging high on the top of the spirit realm shining brightly, and the scattered moonlight nourishes the ghost soldiers and Yin soil, causing the Yin energy in the Yin Ghost Spirit Realm to increase greatly, making it cold and eerie.
Dongshi City, Qingyu Lane, Building 16.
Piaoxianglou.
The largest fireworks place in Dongshi City, specializing in high-end business.
After experiencing the changes in Dongshi City, it has slowly recovered and the number of guests coming and going has gradually increased in recent days.
Lu Feng, wearing a sky-blue robe, sat at a table in a private room on the second floor. Two maids served him as he quietly watched the performance downstairs.
Having nothing to do recently, he wandered around Dongshi City, drank some wine, and listened to some music.
As an art lover in the wizarding world, Lu Feng has admired art for decades, but it is all monotonous and gradually boring.
Now that he has come to the world of earthly immortals and has some free time, he naturally wants to appreciate the art here.
Evaluate the differences between the two worlds.
The wizard world is wilder, while the celestial world is more gentle and light.
Downstairs, a courtesan was playing the piano through a veil, accompanied by the sound of bells and drums. There were also dancers in veil dancing to the music, with graceful movements and beautiful bodies.
Lu Feng was admiring it when he suddenly heard a discussion about the Red Leaf Society coming from downstairs.
"Now that the Red Leaf Society is in charge of Dongshi City, it is much safer. It is not like when Master Qiu was in charge, it was full of chaos! Recently, business in the vicinity has been much better. At least there are no bandits on the road to and from Chuanhe City!"
The person who spoke was a young, square-faced man with surging blood and an obscure aura of magical power. It was obvious that he was also a cultivator.
From what he said, he seemed to be a businessman traveling between the two cities.
"Yes! Yes! We lackeys have benefited from the Red Leaf Society. The Liao family, Wang family, and Xu family that were originally dependent on Master Qiu have all been killed by the Red Leaf Society. The blood has flowed like a river. It's really refreshing!"
Next to the young man, a dark-skinned old man laughed heartily and echoed.
The old man was holding a brass pipe, with smoke curling around him, sometimes like clouds, sometimes like beasts, vivid and lifelike, and he was indeed a very capable practitioner.
They hugged the dancers from Piaoxiang Tower, drank copiously, indulged in sensual pleasures, and talked and laughed, all with smiles on their faces because of the benefits that Hongye would bring to them.
“Bang!”
Listening to the conversation between the smoking old man and the square-faced man, a young man with tied hair and a long sword on his back sitting next to them turned red in the face, became angry, and reached out to press the long sword.
Just as he was about to draw his sword, a hand pressed on the young man's hand.
"Bodong, don't be angry, this is the territory of the Red Leaf Society, we can't act rashly!"
Wang Bodong turned around and saw his senior brother's cold gaze. The anger in his eyes quickly dissipated. He snorted coldly, took his hand away from the hilt of the sword, drank a glass of wine depressedly, and apologized through gritted teeth.
"Brother Liao, I understand!"
After suppressing his junior fellow's recklessness, Senior Brother Liao also took a sip of wine with a depressed heart.
There were three young men at the table, looking at each other, none of them looking very happy.
They used to be from Dongshi City, but after the Red Leaf Society came, they became homeless.
The square-faced man was talking about a big family that was wiped out by the Red Leaf Society, and their family was one of them.
Wang Boguang is from the Wang family, Senior Brother Liao is from the Liao family, and the other three are sons of the Xu family, the Liu family, and the Li family respectively.
They went up the mountain to seek immortals and the way of Taoism, and became disciples of Zhengyang Sect.
Who would have thought that after several years of hard practice in the mountains, he would achieve some success.
In the blink of an eye, the family living at the foot of the mountain was wiped out by the Red Leaf Society.
Upon learning of this, they became disturbed and immediately reported it to the elders in the sect.
Only after getting permission and instructions from the elders in the sect did he come down the mountain.
I had just rushed back to Dongshi City, took a short rest and had a glass of wine when I heard someone sitting next to me talking about the tragedy of their family again.
In this situation, how could they not be angry.
Wang Bodong and his friends drank some wine and called a few girls to go to the guest rooms upstairs to vent their depression.
A few people just left.
Lu Feng, who had his eyes slightly closed upstairs, opened his eyes. The owner of Piaoxiang Tower, Liu Xueyi, who was serving beside him, swayed her plump body and came to Lu Feng's side with a faint fragrance.
Before Lu Feng could speak, Liu Xueyi smiled and said:
"President, we have paid special attention to these young men. Their every word and action along the way has been compiled into a book.
And the woman who just accompanied them is also an experienced veteran in our Piaoxiang Tower. Don't worry, it won't take long before she can get all their secrets out!"
Lu Feng glanced at Liu Xueyi and chuckled:
"Interrogation, thank you for taking the trouble, Mr. Liu!"
Today, Piaoxianglou has naturally become a property of the Hongye Society, and the owner Liu Xueyi has also surrendered to the Hongye Society and become a formal member of the Society.
Liu Xueyi is an expert in the yin and yang of men and women, and is the best at serving men and cultivating women. A brothel is a hodgepodge of places, and she also has a unique ability to collect intelligence.
Together with some other members of the Red Leaf Society, he organized the Red Leaf Society's intelligence network.
According to her, these five young men fell into their intelligence network as soon as they entered the city.
A low-grade Taoist boy and four warriors, with such limited abilities, dared to enter the city for revenge.
It is actually a sign of seeking death.
After a while, the piano music downstairs stopped and the dancing music paused.
Lu Feng also moved to the elegant room on the third floor.
After a while
With a crunch!
Liu Xueyi led his men to escort Wang Bodong and his men up and pushed the door open.
Wang Bodong and his companions were listless, pale, and had bloodstains on their bodies. It seemed that they were weak in defense and could not withstand the interrogation of Piaoxianglou.
"These guys look tall and strong, but they are just weaklings. Their mouths are as soft as persimmons. Once they are tortured, they will tell everything!"
Liu Xueyi walked past Wang Bodong and the others with a look of disdain on her face and reported to Lu Feng:
"They are from Zhengyang Sect, a sect 500 miles north of Dongshi City. They are inner disciples of the sect. Their family was the scourge that was eradicated by the Red Leaf Society. They got the news in the mountains, and under the order and permission of the elders in the sect, they came down the mountain, ready for revenge!"
"Zhengyang Sect! How strong is it? Are there any Taoists in the sect who have cultivated to the spiritual realm?"
Lu Feng didn't care about the revenge of several people. Since Wang Bodong fell into the hands of Liu Xueyi and others, he obviously no longer had the ability to take revenge.
What he cared more about was the Zhengyang Gate behind these people.
The elders in Zhengyang Gate tacitly allowed them to go down the mountain for revenge, and it was obvious that they had no intention of getting along well with the Hongye Society newly established by Lu Feng.
In order to prepare for a rainy day, Lu Feng also had to face up to the Zhengyang Sect that was preparing to cause trouble.
"According to these people, there are five cities under the Zhengyang Sect. There is an old ancestor who has cultivated to the spiritual realm and is in charge of the sect. He is extremely powerful. The lower-grade Taoist children in the sect are only inner disciples, the middle-grade Taoist children can become true disciples, and the upper-grade Taoist children are all elders in the sect. There are also many outer disciples who are only polishing their bodies but have not been able to cultivate magic power!"
As Liu Xueyi spoke, her expression became serious.
As Zhengyangmen is an old-established immortal force nearby, Liu Xueyi had also heard about Zhengyangmen and came into contact with the Zhengyangmen monks who came to Piaoxianglou to drink and listen to music.
Originally, there were many wealthy families in Dongshi City who sent their children thousands of miles away to Zhengyangmen for training.
Learn the orthodox immortality techniques, gain eternal life, and protect your family.
However, Zhengyangmen accepts men but not women, and accepts the rich but not the poor, which prevents many poor families from thinking of changing their fate.
The newly born red leaves will confront Zhengyang Gate, and the future is unknown.
"There is only one Zhengyang Patriarch? The Zhengyang Sect is just average, right? Since they dare to invade the territory of our Red Leaf Society, we should not be polite! I'll leave these people to you to deal with!"
Lu Feng was not afraid of Zhengyang Gate, he just walked over and took a look.
"Yes, President!"
Liu Xueyi nodded in response, handed over a copy of the Zhengyang Sect's mental method obtained through torture, and then retreated with Wang Bodong and the others.
Hearing this, Liu Xueyi knew Lu Feng's attitude without asking any further questions.
The Red Leaf Society does not cause trouble, but is not afraid of trouble either.
Zhengyang Gate, if you come, you will be attacked with swords and axes.
"Forget it. I'm just a small brothel owner. Why should I care about so many things? I should just enjoy my life and have sex with men and women!"
Liu Xueyi passed on the information about Zhengyang Gate, licked her lips, and personally dealt with Wang Bodong and others.
"Zhengyang Heart Method, cultivate a ray of masculine and powerful energy, strengthen the body. If the masculinity is too strong, it is necessary to adjust the yin and yang to eliminate the heart fire. This Zhengyang Heart Method, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem very serious!"
Lu Feng flipped through the Zhengyang Heart Technique that Liu Xueyi had tortured out of him, but he didn't have much interest in practicing it.
It might be because they were only inner sect disciples, the Zhengyang Heart Method had too many flaws and was not as complete as Wang Wu's Sun Furnace Method from the Sanhe Gang.
"The Zhengyang Sect is here. It seems that my reaching the spiritual realm, establishing the Red Leaf Society, and ruling the two cities have had some impact on the surrounding cultivation strength!"
Lu Feng left Piaoxiang Tower and returned to Qiu Mansion.
In the small building,
Lu Feng stood in front of the table with his hands behind his back, looking at the brand new map on the table. Yu Donglei stood beside him with a serious expression.
The Red Leaf Society developed stably and came into contact with surrounding forces. The surrounding foggy areas also began to appear and were filled in on the Red Leaf Society's map.
There is Zhengyang Gate 500 li to the north of Dongshi City and Chuanhe City, and Dahe Temple 1,000 li to the northwest.
About 300 miles to the east there is a vast lake called Qiandao Lake.
There are thousands of islands in the lake and a lot of land, where scattered cultivators gather and form an alliance in the lake.
In the remote south, there are ferocious wild beasts, miasma and poisonous insects. There is a barbarian village called Wanshan League.
These forces can all be considered old local forces, and they all have masters who have reached the spiritual realm in charge. They all pose a considerable threat to Lu Feng's Red Leaf Society.
Especially the Wanshan League of barbarians in the south.
Dongshi City and Chuanhe City under the rule of the Hongye Society were originally the borders of Liangzhou in the Daxuan Dynasty.
Further south, due to environmental factors, there are no longer any cities standing.
The barbarians coveted the rich land of Liangzhou and often invaded.
Dongshi City and Chuanhe City are also the frontline positions to block the invasion of barbarians.
"I killed Monk Huijing. If it is discovered, the hatred with Dahe Temple will be huge. Judging from the actions of Zhengyang Sect, they probably don't want a bad neighbor like me to rise. The Wanshan League of the barbarians is a natural hostility. The only one we can contact right now is the loose cultivator alliance of Qiandao Lake?"
Lu Feng pondered for a while and took a clear look at the situation around him.
"Dong Lei, how much do you know about the Alliance of Loose Cultivators in Qiandao Lake?" Lu Feng asked.
"I have been in Chuanhe City for a while and have some understanding of Qiandao Lake, but it's not comprehensive!"
Yu Donglei thought about it and explained to Lu Feng.
The big river in Chuanhe City is the main stream that flows into Qiandao Lake. You can enter Qiandao Lake by taking a boat downstream.
Because of the dense population and wide rivers in Chuanhe City, when Yu Donglei was hanging around in Chuanhe City, he also came into contact with independent cultivators who came out of Qiandao Lake and went upstream to trade.
I do know some things about Qiandao Lake.
Qiandao Lake is called a thousand islands, but there are only nine famous islands with large land areas in the lake, and the others are just trivial islands.
The nine largest islands are half the size of Dongshi City, the smaller ones are only a few acres in size, and there are some medium-sized islands that are equivalent to the size of a village.
The people who live by the lake live on the islands.
Where there are people, there will naturally be various monastic forces. Because the islands are scattered, most of the islands are inhabited by independent monastic families that dominate the islands.
Among them, the nine families occupying the nine large islands united with the forces on the islands to form a fairly large Nine-Island Alliance.
I heard that there is a master in the spiritual realm secretly controlling the Nine Islands Alliance.
It is said that he was the one who brought together the scattered forces of independent cultivators to form an alliance and advance and retreat together. Otherwise, the independent cultivator families on the nine major islands would not submit to each other, so how could they easily form an alliance?
"The alliance of scattered cultivators, a master in the dark! Interesting!"
Lu Feng felt that the Nine Islands Alliance was somewhat similar to his own Red Leaf Association.
Speaking of the Nine Islands Alliance, Lu Feng suddenly felt that there had been changes in the Great General Shenwei in the Qingmu Spiritual Realm.
After checking, it turned out that Luo Xueqing, the manager of Chuanhe City, used the summoning technique to invite General Shenwei to pass on the message to him.
"Qiandao Lake, the Nine Islands Alliance has sent an envoy to congratulate the president on reaching the spiritual realm!"
No, what a coincidence.
