Chapter 216 Xianyin Alliance
Luzhong County, Xianyin Pool.
In the large swamp with a radius of 500 miles, there is an inner lake surrounded by islands. Thousands of years ago, a great master in the Nascent Soul stage passed by and renamed it Xianyin Pool. It is almost a hundred acres in size.
At this time, there were already dozens of forces stationed in the surrounding islands. They were all settled by the Yang family, the host Xiuzhen family. The lake-view pavilions were located on them, and it was very lively with people coming and going.
Lin Shan and others came all the way and were received into a welcome pavilion. The Yang family greeted them very attentively and did not neglect them in the slightest.
There is no other reason. There is actually a Golden Core Stage cultivator in the newly arrived Lin Chamber of Commerce team!
Of course, this was the Black Skeleton Demon King in disguise. It was not convenient for him to see people in his true colors, so he had to put a gray robe hood on himself and put away the flaming flag behind him.
To be honest, this flaming flag is of little use. The flagpole is just a bone spur that grew out of the Skeleton Tribe when the Black Skeleton Demon Lord broke through the Golden Core Stage. The natal magic weapon.
This is the same as when the demon clan condenses the demon elixir, certain parts of it will transform and be used as weapons and magic weapons.
That flag was also temporarily refined by the Black Skull Demon Lord and placed on the flagpole. It was just an embroidered pillow, used to bluff people. There was no time to add legal prohibitions, so overall it was far from a magic weapon.
If you want to refine a real natal magic weapon, you will consume countless materials, which is simply not something that a small family can afford.
Unless you are refining small items such as "needles", "thorns", "nails" and "dice", the budget may be much lower, but large magic weapons like flags require a large amount of materials.
Therefore, the former Dai family Jindan master who was killed by the two of them in Wangyue City was exhausted and had so many debts, but he only got himself a "little lock" type of natal magic weapon.
Therefore, when participating in the alliance this time, the Black Skeleton Demon Lord also had the intention of ransacking the Dai family to collect the materials for his natal magic weapon.
Of course, maybe for skeletons, a magic weapon is a magic weapon, and the one that is naturally warm and nourished should be called "the natural soul treasure". In short, the meaning is similar.
After entering the Yingbin Pavilion, a group of people immediately surrounded them. It turned out that Lu Xiuming was leading the guys from the former Lin Chamber of Commerce, and came early to join them on orders from Lin Shan.
There are fifty or sixty people in Hu La La's group. They are all students from major academies in Lu State who have just graduated in the past ten years. They are all the younger generation.
Lin Shan didn't hesitate, and introduced the herders to each other. He directly took out the summoning flag, and after more than ten years, he once again summoned the gang of demonic disciples he had collected in the East China Sea.
A whirlpool appeared out of thin air in front of the summoning flag, and then large living people rolled out of it.
"Ouch!~"
“Plop~~”
"Where is this?"
"Huh? He's the boss? Do you finally remember the younger ones?"
"Woooooooo, since we said goodbye more than ten years ago, we almost thought we would never see you again."
……
A bunch of Donghai guys might have been a little bit unaccustomed to teleportation after many years, so they all fell into disrepute, but when they stood up and found that it was Lin Shan, they were all overjoyed to recognize each other.
Lin Shan was also sighing. This was his first team, following him in hiding and fleeing throughout the Song Dynasty. No, he had always been his loyal confidant during his conquests.
More than ten years have passed since arriving in the Lu State and the three demon sects separated in a battle. Many of the younger brothers have become vicissitudes of life.
Youth becomes middle-aged, wrinkles appear in middle-age, gray hair occurs in old age, and some people have already passed away or passed away. Time is not forgiving!
Of course, these people are basically stuck at the peak of Qi training, and none of them can break through the foundation building stage. It can only be said that they are from casual cultivators, and their qualifications are too ordinary.
The foundation building stage is a huge gap between immortals and mortals, and the sword-flying spiritual consciousness is exposed. It is not just the foundation building pill that can hope to succeed, it requires both qualifications and luck.
The Black Skull Demon Lord on the side felt much more friendly when he saw this group of people and greeted them.
Lin Shan quickly asked these young men about their experiences over the years, and then received a lot of complaints from them. Unexpectedly, they had already left Lu country with Huang Xianshi and others.
"Boss, you don't know how difficult it has been for us in Chu State these years!"
"Since we were separated in the last war, Huang Zhenjun opened the way for us, and we followed Protector Yan all the way north to settle in Chu State, the territory of the Demonic Path. Protector Yan found a mountain gate to start his own sect, but Huang Zhenjun's whereabouts are unknown since then. ”
"The Kingdom of Chu is a country controlled by demons. It is full of demon sects and aristocratic families. Protector Yan has just arrived and has to fight wits and courage with the local local snakes before he can barely get a foothold and accommodate us, but he is always on tenterhooks."
"Every time I go out to carry out a sect mission, I have to beware of the demonic monks outside who kill people and steal goods. Everywhere I go, I walk on thin ice with fear. That place is simply not for people to stay in!"
"Boss, you can fish us out!"
……
A group of younger brothers kept complaining, and Lin Shan finally understood.
It turned out that after the final battle, Protector Yan, Luan Chun and others were chased by the Confucian sect one after another because of their relatively large targets and their background in the Demonic Way. They had no choice but to flee northeast to the Chu Kingdom, which was the kingdom of Demonic Sects. , they finally escaped with their lives.
Next, Master Huang Xian seemed to have something important to do, so he left them in a hurry, leaving Protector Yan alone to lead his men and take root in a strange place with difficulty.
The Demonic Kingdom is not very safe. It cannot be compared with places like the Song Dynasty and the Lu Kingdom. The risk factor of walking outside is relatively high. Therefore, these young men have not lived a good life over the years. Now they are summoned by Lin Shan. It was ecstatic.
But after hearing that this place was the State of Lu, all the joy was extinguished in an instant, and I was so scared that I lost my mind!
Maybe after hanging out in the devil's way for a long time, he involuntarily brought in his identity, and as soon as he came to the territory of the righteous way, he felt guilty as a thief.
However, Lin Shan immediately comforted them. Anyway, these people were all casual cultivators in Donghai who became monks on the way, and they had not practiced any magic skills again. Generally speaking, it was not easy to be recognized as people in the demonic path.
Besides, as long as they didn't do too many unethical things, no one would go out of their way to trouble them after they were full.
Next, I briefly told them about the current situation in the outside world, and introduced the Lin Chamber of Commerce and the Mu family to them. Now I had gathered all my team members.
The three parties all treated each other politely and became familiar with each other, looking like they were enjoying themselves.
Then Lin Shan told the story of the Black Skeleton Demon Lord breaking through the Golden Core stage and his plan to form a new force in the Lu Kingdom, which made everyone in the three parties even more excited.
If nothing else, a sect with golden elixir stage monks is first of all safe and secure, and secondly it has sect benefits and a contribution mechanism. This is basically the standard configuration of all forces and can effectively drive the enthusiasm of its subordinates. Can they not Are you happy?
"As long as we go to the Dai family this time and win his vote, we will have the capital to build the mountain gate. When the time comes, I will take you to eat delicious food and drink spicy food. You will be the king of the mountain and sit on the blessed land of Lingshan. You will be the master of the door, Conglong. My dear minister, you will have a great future!”
Linshankou is like a hanging river, talking endlessly, and even painting a pie. However, it seems that what he said is not empty talk at present. It is very likely to be realized in the future, and his subordinates are also very convinced.
At this time, someone knocked on the door outside the Yingbin Pavilion and politely invited the head of the Lin Chamber of Commerce to go to the pavilion in the center of Xianyin Pool to discuss matters.
Lin Shan and the Black Skull Demon Lord looked at each other and knew that the Yang family had just handed over their information. After the senior officials learned that there were actually golden elixir-level monks in the Lin Chamber of Commerce, their attitude changed drastically and they invited them to join the inner circle for discussion.
After all, this alliance has gathered dozens of forces, but there were originally only nine families with golden elixir-level monks in charge. They all joined the alliance three months ago when the night of Wangyue City's big change, and then because of If the interests are not divided enough, we will no longer recruit people to join the group.
And that night, the Lin Chamber of Commerce happened to register in advance, so now that the Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce, Black Skull Demon Lord, had temporarily broken through the Golden Core stage, the senior leaders in the alliance could not ignore it and had to invite him to the table.
Lin Shan simply told Lu Xiuming, Mu Yan and the Donghai gang to communicate more. He and the Black Skull Demon Lord left the Yingbin Pavilion and headed to the Changting Pavilion in the pool.
……
Leaving the island chain all the way, walking along the scenic lake promenade, a pavilion stands in front of you.
On the plaque under the eaves of the pavilion, there are three characters "dragon flying and phoenix dancing".
"Shuiyuexuan".
Presumably it was named after the legendary Yuanying monk who passed by thousands of years ago. As for whether this plaque is authentic, it is a no-brainer that it must be a copy. The handwritten calligraphy of the Yuanying monk is of great value. Liancheng, if it was just hanging outside like this, it would have been stolen countless times.
Lin Shan and the Black Skull Demon Lord walked into the pavilion together, but for the time being, the Black Skeleton Demon Lord was the leader, and he pretended to be a young man and followed behind, keeping a low profile and listening silently.
After all, in this kind of alliance, only the Golden Core Stage monks have the right to speak. His words in the Foundation Establishment Stage are not enough, so it is better to leave the full power to the Black Skeleton Demon Lord to negotiate. Anyway, this guy also has rich experience.
At this moment, there were nine people waiting in the seats in the pavilion. When they saw the guests, they all left their seats and stood up to salute. After greetings, the Black Skull Demon Lord was invited to take a seat. Lin Shan stood behind him and formed a circle with the other juniors of Jindan Zhenren.
"Your Excellency is the vice-president of the Lin Chamber of Commerce. Unexpectedly, you are also the real Jin Dan. Don't be offended if you didn't treat him well before. How should we address you?" The elder of the Yang family spoke first. As the host, he naturally had to preside over the topic.
The Black Skull Demon Lord wrapped up his clothes tightly without leaving any trace, and replied politely: "Fellow Daoist Yang is too polite. My surname is Hei, and I am known as Heiku Sanren."
The eldest elder of the Yang family nodded, and the other eight people also expressed that they remembered the name "Master Heiku".
"Okay, now that everyone is here, we should get down to business."
Everyone knew that the main event was coming, so they all sat upright and began to brace themselves to listen to the next regulations.
The eldest elder of the Yang family is a late-stage Golden Elixir and is also the current ancestor of the Yang family. The only person present this time represented the five Golden Elixir masters of the Yang family, a giant family, so he was the most powerful at the moment.
"The Dai Dai Alliance was founded three months ago in Wangyue City and was officially established today in Xianyin Pool. A total of seventy-two forces gathered here."
"There are ten forces that have Jin Danqi in total, so we decided to set up ten seats, one of which is the chairman of the alliance, and the remaining nine seats are elder seats, headed by Jin Danqi from each sect."
"They are composed of the four major families of Luzhong County, Yang Family, Wangyue City, Lingyun Sect, Xianhemen, Zhaoshen Castle, Liuyang Sect, and Lin Chamber of Commerce."
"The next sixty-two forces are respectively member seats. They need to obey the orders of the leader and elders in the alliance. They are not allowed to act without authorization during the petition, otherwise they will be dealt with according to the alliance rules!"
"At the beginning of the establishment of the alliance, we adhered to the original intention of sincerity and openness, and it was our duty to jointly defeat the Dai family and uphold justice."
"Therefore, there is no circle without rules, and it is difficult to adjust the six rhythms without the five tones. Therefore, the alliance rules are as follows."
"1. Members of the alliance shall not engage in internal strife or force disputes;"
"2. You must make no mistakes along the way. You must not provoke enemies in the name of the alliance or make other enemies;"
"Three,."
After listing them densely one by one.
"The above are all the treaties. What do you fellow Taoists think?"
The ancestor of the Yang family read all the frames and then asked for the opinions of everyone present.
The major Jindan masters thought about it for a long time and found that there was nothing wrong with it. The alliance rules drafted by the Yang family were all fair and upright. It seemed that they had been carefully thought out. There were no secret doors or big pits. They couldn't help but agree with them.
After reaching a consensus, we began to rectify the name of the alliance.
"The Tudai Alliance was founded. In order to build up our momentum, demonstrate the majesty of each force, and make it famous in the cultivation world of Lu country, how about calling it the Ba Alliance?"
The leader of Lingyun Sect was the first to suggest it with great interest.
"Hegemonic alliance?"
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads. They felt that this name was too ordinary. The word "Ba" alone seemed not enough, and it had a bit of a bad name.
“In my opinion, it’s better to add the word ‘ji’ to make it look more powerful and domineering!”
The Lord of Zhaoshen Castle prescribes the right medicine and points out the flaws.
"Jiba Alliance?"
Everyone looked at each other and felt that something was wrong. The name was majestic enough, but a bit too vulgar.
The ancestor of the Yang family smiled and said at this time: "I don't think it's better than this. When we gather in Xianyin Pool today, why not call it Xianyin League!"
At this time, everyone shook their heads again. Xianyin Pool was the territory of the Yang family. As the name spread, maybe outsiders thought that this alliance was a pawn of the Yang family?
The four major families in Wangyue City all retorted: "If Fellow Daoist Yang named it after the region, then this alliance was first established in Wangyue City, so it should be called the Wangyue Alliance."
The ancestor of the Yang family stopped talking at this time, and the first step of naming reached a deadlock.
The gray-robed hooded man played by the Black Skull Demon Lord spoke at this time:
"You don't need to do this. In my opinion, we are all based on the west bank of Lujiang in the state of Lu, in the area of Lunan, Luzhong and Lubei. How about simply calling it Lujiang League?"
After everyone heard it, they felt that the name was not bad, and it was very consistent with the regional characteristics. It did not favor any particular force, and would not cause misunderstandings among outsiders, so they all praised it.
"What Fellow Taoist Heiku said is absolutely true."
In this way, the name of the alliance was decided, and then the status sorting began, which also represented the beginning of the struggle for power within the alliance.
"When the Lujiang League is established, I think there must be a respected leader to lead everyone to work together. I am not talented, so I boldly recommend myself!"
The ancestor of the Yang family stepped forward without hesitation and said that he would run for the position of leader.
All the Golden Elixir Masters were silent, their eyes flickering, no one agreed or objected, and the scene became so deserted for a while.
The ancestor of the Yang family has the highest cultivation level, and the Yang family is also the most powerful. The five golden elixir stage monks account for more than one-third of the alliance. They have a huge say in the alliance. Indeed, no one can compete with him.
However, they are still more or less unwilling to give up their supreme power, such as the four major families in Wangyue City.
They themselves are a small group, and they are both harmed and prosperous. In total, there are four Jindan Daoist, which can be said to be the second largest force in the alliance.
As for the rest who are retail investors, people like Black Skeleton Demon Lord have no intention of competing for the alliance leader. It depends on who is willing to make concessions between the Yang family and Wangyue City in the end.
After some discussions, as everyone expected, the four major families in Wangyue City took a step back, obtained a promise from the Yang family, and gave up their position in the competition for alliance leader.
In this way, the first leader of the Lujiang League was designated as the ancestor of the Yang family.
The remaining nine elders were taken over by the Jindan masters of each family, and the Black Skeleton Demon Lord was naturally assigned a seat.
All the frameworks are almost set up, and the main event can be brought to the stage. This is what everyone has been looking forward to.
After the crusade against the Dai family, the issue of distribution of spoils.
Youdao is a brother who has to settle accounts clearly, not to mention that when everyone first joins the alliance, everything must be arranged in advance to divide the cake, so that they have the motivation to fight against the Dai family.
"In this battle for Dai, we will first divide it according to our respective strengths, and then adjust according to our respective efforts after the war. What do you think?"
After the ancestor of the Yang family became the leader of the alliance, he was the first to propose the draft.
Everyone nodded, this arrangement was reasonable and reasonable, and they had no objections.
"The Dai family is a mining giant in the cultivation world of the Lu State. According to investigations, there are five Lingshan Blessed Lands, 12 refined iron mines, nine refined copper mines, two cloud copper pits, and one small Lingshi mine."
< br>
"Five medicinal gardens, three spiritual wells, 100 acres of spiritual fields, as well as the mining rights of Jinchan Lake, Yunchuan Academy training qualifications, and Ludong secret realm management qualifications."
"There are thirty spiritual ore refining workshops, fourteen spiritual material processing plants, ten magic weapon repair buildings, eight weapon refining pavilions, three affiliated chambers of commerce, and eighty-two downstream transportation channels."
……
The ancestor of the Yang family counted all the properties of the Dai family, listing them one by one in detail. After all, they were old enemies for many years, so they had known the other party's background for a long time, and the Yang family had long coveted it.
Everyone present was dumbfounded, and for the first time they discovered that this was the so-called cultivation giant who actually controlled such a huge wealth!
And these are just real estate, not counting the various spiritual stones, exercises, secret techniques, elixirs, magic weapons, spiritual beasts, etc. within the clan, as well as the wealth in the hands of individual Dai family members.
Lin Shan, who was standing aside in the pavilion and listening, could not help but feel excited.
