Chapter 436: You are never alone on this road, we are all fellow travelers.
Spring is here and it’s time for another Central State election.
"Is the Supreme Sect coming this year?"
“…No.”
Everyone was annoyed. "They don't accept disciples and they don't open a temple. What is the Supreme Sect doing all day long?"
"Concentrate on your cultivation. Last time, the Supreme Sect accepted four disciples, and four outstanding young men emerged. Who could have imagined such quality?"
"That's right. The Supreme Sect is not only powerful. I heard that after Master Lin Du obtained the inheritance of Tiangong Tower, he actually opened up the inheritance. Any talisman master who meets the requirements can enter the tower to learn. Master Yan Qing also took the lead in opening a Taoism Society!"
"Only the latest inventions or enlightenments are published, ranging from refining tools, formations, mechanisms, alchemy, talismans to cultivation experience. In addition to the theories of the Supreme Sect, it also includes fresh and valuable theories from great masters and geniuses from all over the world!"
"That's right. In just three years, they published a sub-journal, claiming it is dedicated to the basics of cultivation for beginners. You know what, it's really useful and inspiring. The 'journals' of the Tao Society in the bookstores are in great demand."
"I know this. The strange record records the reason why this book club was established. It was inspired by Master Lin Du and formed a review committee with several major sects. They are really good people."
"True people, great justice!"
When everyone talked about this, they couldn't help but sigh, and as they sighed, they returned to the original topic, "So what do you think the real people of the Supreme Sect are doing?"
In the Supreme Sect, all the real people who were missed by everyone gathered together and almost started a quarrel.
"I say, if it really doesn't work, we can just put the mine in the minefield." Yuan Ye scratched his head irritably, "It's simple and convenient, and the mines can be thrown accurately."
"You said that these evil spirits have been trying to break through our defenses, and you see, the images sent back by the surveillance sparrow I put in are a bit strange."
Yan Qing brought up the screen and said, "I know the type of this evil demon. According to records, it has multiple demon fetuses."
Everyone looked at the huge evil demon that had transformed into its original form. After it took the potion and entered a formation, it was directly separated into several parts. Each part twisted and struggled separately. After a long time, these parts crawled out of the formation independently.
Lin Du raised his hand and pressed his eyes, "Sure enough."
The way evil demons evolve is to separate the demon fetuses, form multiple evil demons, and then cultivate by absorbing demonic energy.
Chu Guanmeng looked at the biscuit in his hand that was bitten into a mess, was silent for a moment, then silently rolled it into a ball and stuffed it into his mouth.
Ni Jinxuan, who was lucky enough to get a snack, quietly put down the cookie that was still dripping with black bean paste, and said, "I think the greatest evolution of the demons is that they have grown brains."
Lin Du agreed, "Having a brain makes a difference. The other day, Jin Rui from the Lian Heng faction wrote to me. However, in just 20 years, a formation designed by a participating formation master has been destroyed."
Several people were sitting on a bamboo mat, among which were scattered pens, ink, paper, inkstone and a silver mirror.
Someone sighed, "I'm so worried!"
The others sighed and said, "It's so sad."
Mo Lin decided to boost morale. "Since the source of demonic energy is gone, we can always kill so many evil demons."
"If it doesn't work, we can just unite and kill them all directly."
"Not very good." Lin Du rejected it. "Hou Cang almost crawled back yesterday. Now in the demon world, as long as a spiritual practitioner appears, a signal flare will be lit, and all the evil demons in the surrounding territories will run over to besiege."
"They will also steal the storage ring first, and traps like the forbidden spirit formation."
Xia Tian nodded. It was she who treated Hou Cang's injury, which was indeed terrible.
Yan Qing concluded his speech, "At present, the spirits and demons have become mortal enemies. We are slowly recovering, but they are at the end of their rope."
Yuan Ye lamented, "There is a reason why we should not pursue poor bandits."
A group of people sat on the ground, looking gloomy and sad, until a cold voice came, "What are you doing? There are almost dark clouds over your heads."
When people look back, they see nothing but desolation.
It was obvious that Hou Cang was seriously injured yesterday and it hasn't healed yet. There is still a white gauze tied around his arm.
"A bunch of little brats, you don't want to do anything after a little blow, right?"
Hou Cang was much more relaxed than before, and seemed to have thrown all his previous caution to the wind. He came over with a group of people, started moving seats, and sat down in an empty space.
"Your move won't work. The range is not wide enough, and the killing power is not great. Do you dare to enter the forbidden pool? You don't dare. If you do, you will not be able to stop too many evil spirits around you, and you will expose your position. Get rid of it."
Hou Cang picked up a pen and crossed out the line he had just drawn.
Yuan Ye: ...
"Also, this magic weapon of yours will be discovered before it reaches the end of its flight, unless you can completely eliminate the spiritual energy leaked during flight." Hou Cang pushed the wooden bird away.
Yan Qing: ...
Hou Cang couldn't understand the formation, and Lin Du escaped.
The two brothers moved in unison to make room for another person, and just in time, someone showed up. "I say, what are you doing here, Old Four?"
Cangli walked over with a jade flute in his hand, "Hey, you're hurt."
He waved his robe and sat down, his wide sleeves falling on the knees of his apprentice and Hou Cang. One of them swallowed his anger in silence, while the other was not used to it and blew the corner of his robe off.
"Why, now that you've become the leader, you don't plan to ask for your master's opinion, right?" Cang Li lowered his head, "You can make improvements. They are rough people who don't understand, but I can."
Hou Cang: ...
The two brothers straightened their backs, and Cangli lowered his eyes to scan the things on the table, "It can still be modified."
All the disciples of the 99th generation, except Feng Yi who was in Tiangong Tower, joined the discussion meeting one after another, and Zhumat was also forced to add a seat.
By the time Lin Du finally returned to the library with the Wanli Deployment Map, it was already seven days later.
The crowd dispersed one after another, but Hou Cang and Cangli were still on the top of the peak, each sitting on a bamboo mat, clearly separated from each other.
After a long silence, Cang Li spoke up and said, "I used to envy you."
Hou Cang nodded, "I know."
The two fell into silence again. Dusk fell and everything was speechless.
Finally, Cangli stood up and prepared to return to his own palace.
"But now I also envy you. Cranes miss their old nests and clouds miss the mountains. They are not as free as you." Hou Cang's voice came from behind.
Cang Li continued forward after hearing this, "Fool."
"How can one be carefree in a high-ranking palace? Today we have a big plan, tomorrow we will be drunk on the battlefield, get ready to go!"
Looking back, the man stepped on the ground step by step. His elegant robe was blown up by the wind, revealing his steady footsteps.
Lin Du worked hard for a few days and put the deployment map on the table. He left the library and when he came back after some fresh air, he found that the deployment map on his table had been spread out, and there were several traces of modifications on it.
The handwriting is vigorous and powerful, with a strong ancient flavor.
It could only be the senior in the library.
Lin Du looked at it for a while, but did not sit down. He bowed and said, "Thank you for your guidance, senior!"
You are never alone on this path, as we are all fellow travelers.
And she also has to make final preparations for herself.
