Chapter 245 Chaos
“What kind of cultivation is fellow Taoist?”
“Foundation building, late stage of foundation building.”
“Are you good at various arts?”
"...Does this also need to be registered?"
"Naturally, there is a fear that there are cultivators from the Incense Taoist lurking around now. This is also to ensure the safety of fellow Taoists, so we must register truthfully."
"This... Okay, I know a little bit about weapon refining."
"What do you call it?"
"The surname is Li, and the single name has the character Ji."
"Why do you come to the city?"
"Do you have to say this... Well, I am here to find Master Shenfu."
"Master Shen, there are many people who want to see him every day, but there are only a handful of people who can actually see him. Countable."
"Have you seen it?"
"Haha, we don't have such a big reputation, okay, let's go in."
"Thank you. .”
Walked in from the city gate.
Li Ji looked around.
After several rounds of expansion, the originally small Yongan City still looks cramped.
Li Ji has heard about this.
The main reason is that there are many monks who are skilled in various arts gathered in the city, and there are many monks who are very famous and are called "masters".
Among them, the most popular one is undoubtedly Master Shenfu Shen who launched the second-level spirit chicken essence.
It is the existence of these people that attracts many casual cultivators from the Yan Kingdom.
The changes in the attitude of the three major sects towards the casual cultivators made these people settle in the city even if they spent a large amount of spiritual stones.
This also makes the population in Yongan City more and more bloated.
But it is obvious that it also brought prosperity to the monk-related industries here.
What just puzzled Li Ji was that although Yong'an City today was still prosperous, it was obviously much deserted compared to what he saw the last time he came here.
There were many more monks from the three major sects patrolling the road.
"Is it because of what the monks at the door said about the incense path?"
Thinking of this, Li Ji couldn't help but look slightly solemn.
He once went to the front line of Wei State and faced the Incense Tao monks directly.
He is very aware of the difficulties faced by the cultivators of the Incense Path.
And if there are really incense Taoist monks in Yan State, then it is normal for Yong'an City to be so nervous.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a sad, angry and panic voice:
"I was wronged! Fellow Taoist! I was wronged! I am not a person of Incense Tao!" You caught it wrong!”
“Humph! Come to the sect with us and ask the elders to take it away!”
Li Ji quickly followed the sound.
I saw a middle-aged casual cultivator who exuded the fluctuation of mana in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, with a look of injustice on his face, being tied up by a group of monks from three major sects with ropes specially designed to seal off the mana of monks, and also attached with talismans.
Many casual cultivators around were watching, some sneered, some were suspicious, some looked sad, some were smiling...
Looking at the tied up middle-aged casual cultivator , Li Ji couldn't help but wonder.
Da Chu and the Incense Dao monks have been fighting for ten years. There has already been a simple inspection talisman for the Incense Dao monks. It is of no use to high-level monks such as Jindan and Yuanying, but it is useful for refining Qi and building foundations. One test is accurate.
There is no need to take it to Master Jindan for inspection at all, otherwise the Jindan Masters on the front line would have nothing to do and would be busy just checking there every day.
Many people from the three major sects of the Yan Kingdom have been to the front line. It is said that making such talismans is not difficult, but why are they still using such an inefficient method?
Li Ji was puzzled.
Of course, it is not ruled out that Xianghuo Dao just bribed this person and did not choose to seize his body.
That is possible.
With this in mind, he also squeezed into the crowd.
I curiously asked Kun Xiu, who looked older and was watching with a smile on his face:
"Fellow Taoist, has this person been found to be a member of the Incense Taoist? ”
Na Kunxiu looked at him He opened his eyes and didn't want to pay attention to it, but when he felt the aura of the late stage of foundation building on the other party, he couldn't help but squeeze out a smile on his face, and his voice was a bit sharp:
"That's not true, but in my opinion, this person is probably .”
"Oh? How can you see it?"
Li Ji couldn't help but be curious.
"This man is usually fierce and vicious. When he meets people from the three major sects, he sometimes dares to challenge him. Tell me, if he didn't have the support of people from the Xianghuo Tao, how could he have such courage?"
"Also, I often see him looking at some female cultivators in a wrong way. He is probably not a good person either..."
This Kun Xiu seemed to have opened up his chatterbox and kept chattering.
Li Ji suddenly became speechless.
Immediately, I glanced at the casual cultivators around me again, only to find that the eyes of these people looking at the casual cultivator who was taken away were full of numbness and indifference.
Seeing this scene, Li Ji suddenly didn't care too much about whether the casual cultivator who was taken away was a member of the Incense Tao.
Shaking his head slightly, Li Jixuan left the crowd and walked towards Master Shen's residence.
Along the way, he unexpectedly discovered that such things happened a lot.
"... Once you find a suspected Incense Dao monk, report it to us immediately! Once verified, you will be rewarded with at least ten medium-grade spiritual stones, no upper limit!"
Three major monks shouted loudly at the entrance of the alley. Preach.
The eyes of many casual cultivators below were shining, and they were all gearing up.
Seeing this scene, Li Ji couldn't help but shook his head again.
Only these people want to find the Incense Taoist monks?
It's simply wishful thinking.
He quickly walked past these people, and soon saw the only mansion with a huge courtyard on the busiest street in the city.
This is where Master Shenfu is.
Li Ji suddenly walked over quickly.
However, I didn’t take a few steps.
Buzz!
Choke!
A rushing voice sounded in my ears!
Li Ji was shocked!
A sense of crisis suddenly hit my heart!
He didn't even think about it. The instinct accumulated from many encounters with powerful enemies on the front line of Wei State allowed him to activate the magic weapon on his body immediately.
In an instant, Li Ji was surrounded by seven or eight second-order top-grade magical artifacts, Baoguang!
At the same time, there were already several magic weapons and talisman brilliance coming towards him from all around.
A rope was also thrown towards his head.
But it was blocked by the magic weapon on Li Ji's body and was shocked back.
"Fellow Taoists, be careful, this beast is fierce! There are many magical weapons, don't get close, use up its magical power first!"
A rich voice shouted.
Li Ji's heart suddenly tightened, and his consciousness flew around. He saw that at some point, more than ten monks from the three major sects had appeared around him, surrounding him!
“What’s going on?”
Li Ji was puzzled and angry.
If he hadn't activated the magic weapon in time, he might have been seriously injured and taken down right now!
But the key is, why did these people attack him?
"That's the man! This man must be the Incense Taoist monk! Catch him quickly!"
A sharp voice suddenly sounded not far away.
Li Ji quickly looked around, but was shocked to find that the elderly Kun Xiu who had just spoken to him was standing not far away, pointing at him and shouting loudly.
In an instant, Li Ji understood everything.
I couldn't help but get furious.
“The evil woman is dead!”
The magic weapon around him quickly stirred up, and seven rays of light were quickly formed above him, hesitating.
That Kun Xiu's expression suddenly changed, and he subconsciously shrank back.
But the monks from the three major sects around him gathered around him one after another.
"The thieves are so brave!"
"Let's take it down together!"
Li Ji woke up and quickly shouted: "Everyone! Misunderstanding! I am It’s Li Ji, a guest of Prince Gao of Great Chu, who is here to look for Master Shen...”
“A bold incense Taoist cultivator who dares to pretend to be a member of the superior state and wants to murder Master Shen, let me take him down!”< br>
The leading monk didn't believe what he said at all, so he slapped a hat on his face.
With a wave of his hand, the magic power of the three monks around him surged, and their magical weapons, talismans, spells... were ready to go.
Li Ji looked extremely ugly.
“These bastards! Don’t know right from wrong!”
He quickly drove the flying magic weapon and wanted to fly out, but he soon discovered that the sky above Yongan City had already been locked In the empty magic circle, it is impossible to fly away under the golden elixir.
"Damn it!"
Li Ji was anxious and angry.
He never expected that he would unexpectedly encounter such a predicament when he just came out to help his uncle get a batch of spirit chicken essence.
To be honest, even when he was on the front line of Wei State, he was never so passive.
"Stop resisting! Obediently remove the magic power from the magic weapon! Otherwise, if we attack together, you will definitely die!"
The leading monks of the three major sects shouted.
Li Ji's spiritual consciousness swept across these monks, and he suddenly fell into a tangle in his heart.
Give up resistance, he cannot trust these people.
But don’t give up...
But at this moment.
"Huh?"
Li Ji was stunned.
He was surprised to find that the monks from the Four Third Sect seemed to have received some instructions and suddenly put away the magic weapons and talismans in their hands.
“What is going on?”
Li Ji was confused.
The leading monk also looked a little unhappy. He glared at the Kun Xiu next to him, and then walked up to Li Ji.
Looking at Li Ji up and down, he paused briefly on the magic weapon on his body, and then said:
"You are quite capable, and you can actually let Master Shen speak for you personally. "
"But..."
A coldness flashed in the eyes of this sect monk:
"Say what you should say and what you shouldn't say, and watch your mouth."
Li Ji didn't pay attention to the other party's threat at all, and focused all his attention on the first half of the sentence.
“It turns out that it was Daoist Shen who saved me.”
It suddenly dawned on him.
I couldn’t help but be secretly surprised:
"I never thought that Fellow Daoist Shen would have such great prestige in this city that even these monks from the sect would give him face."
Although he is now a member of Prince Gao's Mansion in Da Chu, in fact he was originally a member of the Yan Kingdom. Cultivate your background.
It’s just that he later got involved in his uncle’s favor and became a guest in Prince Gao’s Mansion.
Even so, most of them are on the border between Dachu and Yan.
But he is very familiar with the situation in Yan State.
Naturally, he fully understands how difficult it is to make these sect monks so obedient.
At this time, the monks of the sect also dispersed.
Li Ji quickly walked to the front of the mansion.
The door is not guarded by sect monks like before.
Maybe it’s because there are three large groups of people within a few steps of the street.
Li Ji stepped forward and was about to knock on the door.
The door opened slowly and automatically without any wind.
I saw a dashing figure standing in front of the door, taking the initiative to salute.
"Fellow Daoist Li is tired. Senior brother is still in seclusion, but he will be out soon, please wait a moment."
"It doesn't matter."
Li Ji said quickly.
He also knows this female cultivator. She is a Taoist companion of fellow Taoist Shen.
Under the leadership of the other party, he quickly walked to a quiet room and served tea.
Not long after waiting, I soon heard a burst of hearty laughter from far to near.
"Daoyou Li is affected."
A figure pushed open the door and entered.
"Fellow Taoist Shen!"
Seeing this person, Li Ji suddenly smiled, and then said with a look of shame:
"Ashamed, if Taoist friend hadn't spoken, I'm afraid they've been captured by those sect monks."
"Haha, if they know the identity of fellow Taoist, I won't dare to give them any more courage."
"Submit, no," Wang Hao said with a smile.
"Even so, you still have to suffer a lot."
Li Ji shook his head and said with some confusion: "I didn't hear about the incense road last time I came here, why did it suddenly happen this time? It became so serious that when I entered the city, I encountered several casual cultivators who were taken away.”
Wang Bao spread his hands after hearing this and said: "To be honest, I'm not too sure about what happened recently. I've been practicing and refining the essence of the spiritual chicken, and I didn't pay attention at all."
Of course, in his opinion, , I am afraid that the three incense monks he deliberately placed outside the city were noticed by the three major sects.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be so strict all of a sudden, and the entire Yong'an City feels a bit uneasy.
This saves him from having to tell Zhang Zhenren face to face.
After all, if he said it, it would be really troublesome to explain. Now it saves a lot of trouble.
Li Ji frowned when he heard this:
"Perhaps it has something to do with the death of 'that one'?"
"That one?"
Wang Yan was startled, and immediately realized what the other party was talking about by 'that one'.
It is Zhang Daobai, the only Nascent Soul True Lord among the sects of the Yan Kingdom.
A few days ago, in the north of Yan State, the sky was clear and there was a sudden rain of blood.
There is no way to hide such a vision.
All the monks realized that Zhang Daobai, the Nascent Soul Lord who had been rumored to be about to fall for many years, finally fell after many years.
This made many people feel complicated emotions.
For this former number one person in the Yan Kingdom, some admired, some admired, some secretly rejoiced, some breathed a sigh of relief...
The fall of Zhang Daobai also meant that Zhen Zhen The absolute rule of Ling Palace in the Yan Kingdom will soon become a thing of the past.
It is no exaggeration to say that an era is over.
Another era belonging to the three major sects is coming soon.
As times change, there will inevitably be a lot of battles and reshuffles of forces.
Many people are looking forward to and nervously waiting for the arrival of this era.
However, a few days passed.
Instead, the entire Yan Kingdom fell into a strange and strange silence.
The originally expected three major sects to jointly attack the Zhenling Palace did not happen. Even up to now, the Zhenling Palace has not released the news of Zhang Daobai's death.
Of course, even Wang Yan can see the weakness of Zhenling Palace.
Not to mention the three major sects that have been dealing with Zhenling Palace for many years.
Wang Yan was also a little surprised as to why the three major sects still hadn’t launched an attack.
We can only guess whether people from the three major sects are aware of the existence of the Incense Tao monks, so they dare not take action easily.
And Li Ji thought of what he had just experienced, and couldn't help but express his thoughts:
"Fellow Daoist Shen, does this incense Taoist monk really exist? I think the three major sects Now, in the name of Incense Taoism, they are secretly eradicating the casual cultivators. As the saying goes, when fighting outsiders, you must first secure your homeland and secure your rear. Then the three major sects would dare to go to war with Zhenling Palace, right? Otherwise, wouldn’t they be afraid of being raided by rogue cultivators? "
"This... ...Shouldn’t it be possible?”
Wang Hao hesitated.
He didn't think so, because he was very sure that there were incense Tao monks in Yan country.
Of course, what Li Ji said is also possible. It is natural for the three major sects to eradicate the incense road and solve their worries at the same time.
Li Ji shook his head: "I've heard this trick a lot. The royal families and aristocratic families in Dachu all do this. This Yan Kingdom sect...hey!"
In his tone, it was difficult to conceal his cynicism towards the Yan State clan.
This is normal, after all, I just suffered a loss not long ago.
However, the two of them did not chat much in this regard. After some small talk, Wang Yan handed over this month's ten pieces of 'Spiritual Chicken Essence' to Li Ji.
"Fellow Taoist, you still need to be more careful in this country of Yan."
Before leaving, Li Ji said sincerely.
Wang Hao was silent for a moment, then smiled and sent Li Ji out of the city.
Watching Li Ji's figure disappear into the horizon, he slowly withdrew his gaze.
"Master Shen, you have to speak up, otherwise it will not be easy for us to get out of Yong'an City now."
The monk from the sect at the gate of the city said with a flattering smile.
Wang Hao smiled slightly and threw out a bottle of low-purity first-order spiritual chicken essence, which immediately attracted the exclamation from the gatekeeper monk.
He didn't care about this. After pondering for a moment, he quietly hid his figure and found Master Mi who was good at making Tianleizi in the city.
“I want second-order Tianleizi, the more the better.”
Master Mi is an old man with white hair and a monocle.
He looked at Wang Ba in surprise.
However, Wang Hao deliberately used the power of the Yinshen to re-create his appearance, body shape and aura, and he could not tell Wang Hao's identity at all.
He said casually:
“One second-order low-grade Tianleizi and five middle-grade spiritual stones. The middle-grade ones are...”
"I want the second-level top grade Tianleizi."
Wang Hao interrupted directly: "As many as you want."
Hearing Wang Hao's words, Master Mi finally looked at it seriously this time. Look at Wang Ba.
After hesitating for a while, he took out ten boxes from the storage ring.
“One second-level top-grade Tianleizi and twenty middle-grade spiritual stones.”
"Twenty pieces per box, two hundred pieces in total."
"This is all I have accumulated."
Wang Yan directly threw forty high-grade spiritual stones to the opponent.
Next, he went to Master Xin, who was good at making talismans, and purchased a batch of second-level top-quality talismans.
Immediately returned to his mansion.
"Junior sister, take these."
Wang Hao handed over all the Tianleizi, talismans and other things he had purchased before to Bu Chan.
With his cultivation background and the help of spiritual beasts.
Under the golden elixir, at least in the Yan Kingdom, there are probably not many people who can be his opponent.
So he was not worried about himself, only worried about Bu Chan.
At the moment, Yan Kingdom still seems to be peaceful, but Wang Yan can clearly feel that this is just the calm before the storm.
The longer the rain clouds are held in, the more terrifying they become when they are released.
Two more days passed.
The atmosphere in Yongan City became increasingly tense.
The guards at the city gate have become increasingly tight.
In the beginning, only people were allowed in but not allowed out.
More and more sect monks are coming to arrest people in the city. In the streets and alleys, you can see sect monks, led by some casual cultivators, breaking into the homes of casual cultivators and taking people away by force. .
The casual cultivators criticized and reported each other.
There was even a situation where there were not enough monks in the sect.
At first, most casual cultivators didn’t take it seriously.
Some people even became more and more excited after receiving the reward of spiritual stones.
However, as more and more casual cultivators were arrested, and more and more houses were vacated, some of the casual cultivators finally realized that something was wrong.
“This is a scam!”
“I’m afraid there are no incense monks in the city!”
“These sect monks want to eat us up ! ”
"We must escape immediately!"
These casual cultivators quickly united and planned to take advantage of the sect monks at the city gate to change their defenses and break through directly.
However, before this plan could be implemented, it was interrupted by a casual cultivator who secretly attracted monks from three major sects.
"This person is secretly instigating us casual cultivators to fight against the three major sects. He is probably a member of the Incense Tao! Catch him!"
Quickly.
Not a single one of this group of casual cultivators who were planning to escape Yong'an City was left, and all of them were captured.
"You betrayed us! You actually want to be a dog for the three major sects! You have to die!"
A captured casual cultivator cursed angrily at the casual cultivator who leaked the secret.
But it caused the casual cultivator to sneer:
“What’s wrong with being a dog?”
"I don't want to hide my head every day and live a precarious life like before. If I report you, I can get a lot of spiritual stones! Maybe I can even become a member of the three major sects!"
"It's just my fault. You are so stupid!”
This group of casual cultivators were quickly taken away by the sect monks.
Only the messy scene was left, and... Wang Yan stood at the door of the mansion and saw this scene.
Wang Yan’s eyes were heavy.
He began to realize that Li Ji's guess was probably right.
The three major sects, using the incense path as an excuse, encourage casual cultivators to report each other, isolate and differentiate from each other, thereby easily achieving the purpose of cleaning up the unstable factors in casual cultivators.
Once the cleanup of loose cultivators is completed, perhaps the operation against Zhenling Palace will officially begin.
Now, the question he has to consider is, in the eyes of the three major sects, is he also an unstable existence?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of the curse-killing technique used by the Xuli Sect on him before.
He originally thought that Xuli Zong was incapable of defeating him, and there would be new actions against him soon, so he had been trying his best to be on guard.
We are also ready to evacuate at any time.
However, after waiting for several days, there was no new news.
This made him doubtful.
At this moment, a figure whose body, aura, and appearance was hidden quietly appeared beside Wang Yan.
The visitor quickly said:
"Zhang Yunlong has met Master Shen."
Wang Hao nodded slightly, then quickly brought him into the room and closed the door.
"Master Shen, this is a letter from my ancestor."
Zhang Yunlong did not dare to be shy in front of Wang Hao, and politely handed over a letter and a restricted storage bag. The gift ring was given to Wang Hao.
Wang Ba didn't have time to exchange greetings with Zhang Yunlong, so he quickly opened the letter.
Soon, a look of contemplation appeared on his face.
“Fellow Daoist Zhang, what else did Master Zhang explain?”
Zhang Yunlong said quickly: “My ancestor said that if Master Shen accepts these conditions, we will personally provide you with what you want. ”
“Of course, even if Master Shen doesn’t want to accept it, there are some things you need in this storage ring, and I will tell you the secret to unlocking the restriction.”
< br>
Wang Ba frowned slightly when he heard this, and seemed a little confused:
"Let me think about it again."
"Of course I will give you time, but... I'm afraid there won't be much time left for you. ”
Zhang Yunlong is still very polite.
However, Wang Yan immediately noticed something from it.
His heart suddenly trembled:
"Could it be that the three major sects will soon take action against Zhenling Palace?"
But there was no unnecessary expression on his face, and he nodded.
Zhang Yunlong didn't say anything else, and quickly handed over the secret to unlocking the restriction of the storage ring to Wang Yan, and then left in a hurry.
There seems to be someone outside to help, but I am not worried about being discovered by the people from Xuli Sect and Huifeng Valley.
Zhang Yunlong was sent away.
Wang Yan stood in the quiet room, looking thoughtful.
"Zhang Jin, an old fox, has indeed taken a fancy to Yuan Wenzhi and Zhang Tailai. This time, he no longer conceals his purpose."
The letter sent by Zhang Yunlong directly stated Several conditions are given.
The most important thing is to ask Wang Yan to join Danlongmen, and at the same time encourage Yuan Wenzhi and Zhang Tailai to join together.
If he could do it, not only would all the spiritual materials he needed be supplied to him, but he would also be guaranteed to use all the sect's strength to achieve the golden elixir for Wang Ba.
Of course, both parties need to make a vow.
As for this, Wang Yan gave up directly.
Maybe Zhang Jin is indeed sincere.
But his goal is to get the qualification to enter the third level of Linglong Ghost City, and he does not want to be trapped in a small sect with only four or five Jindan real people.
But he had to fool those who needed to be fooled, so he naturally delayed it as much as possible.
Following the instructions given by Zhang Yunlong, Wang Hao successfully opened the storage ring, and indeed got four materials for King Wuyu's bloodline breakthrough.
Compared with Jia Fifteen, Wu Yuan King needs several more materials to break through.
In addition to some of the second-level spiritual materials improved by Wang Ba and those given by Dan Longmen, he also needs four third-level spiritual materials.
Two more days passed.
In Yong'an City, the atmosphere became increasingly heavy.
Many casual cultivators closed their doors tightly and did not dare to make any movement.
However, the screams that sounded from time to time still frightened them.
Although no one dared to disturb Wang Ba's mansion.
But Wang Yan was also a little unable to sit still.
He had even considered leaving.
And in such a suffocating atmosphere.
This day.
A tall, thin and lanky figure of a scribe fell from the sky and stood at the door of Wang Ba's mansion.
The arrival of this figure immediately aroused the vigilance of many sect monks.
They rushed over quickly, but did not dare to take a step forward.
And feeling the aura of this figure, a burly figure suddenly rose in the alley opposite Wang Hao's mansion.
It is Zhang Tailai.
At this moment, the honest face was full of surprise.
"Brother! You are finally back!"
Two chapters combined into one, the one in the morning is one of the two updates I owed before. It’s gone tonight, no need to wait
(End of this chapter)
