Beiyin Great Sage

"I have a Taoist heart and don't like worldly things, so the closure of the mountain will continue."

Zizhen sat on the stone chair, her beautiful face filled with invisible majesty, like a superior god, and her voice was soothing, powerful, and unquestionable:

“All communication within and outside Black Wind Mountain will be cut off unless necessary!”

"ah!"

"What?"

"Why?"

Everyone showed surprise, confusion, and even panic.

Yushu couldn't help but said:

"Teacher... Cave Master, why is this? If we cut off all contact, how will we pay for everything on the mountain? What will happen to the countless barbarians outside the mountain?"

"This action is absolutely unacceptable!"

The closure of the mountain in the past few years has severely damaged the Batu Caves. Apart from the birth of a cave master, the backbone of the cave has been completely withered.

In such a huge inheritance, there are only three or two big cats and kittens left.

If the mountain closure continues, or even becomes more stringent, what else will Batu Caves have to offer? How will we resist the other forces that are eyeing us?

Zhou Yi also frowned.

"I've made up my mind."

Zizhen's eyes were firm and his tone was unquestionable:

"Within one year, except for the Criminal Court, the Animal Court and the Poison Court will all move out of Batu Mountain, and Batu Cave will no longer admit inner and outer disciples."

There was silence.

Yushu's delicate body swayed, her beautiful eyes full of confusion.

Others were even more puzzled, and felt a kind of panic that came from nowhere, as if the pillars in their hearts suddenly collapsed.

In recent years, due to the lack of Taoist monks in Batu Cave, the area that is completely different from Qianman Mountain and Wanling Cave has been slowly occupied by people.

After all, unlike Batu Caves, other forces do not only have one Taoist priest.

Everyone is waiting for Zizhen to come out of seclusion and wipe away the humiliation of these years. No matter what happens, they must stabilize the situation and no longer be bullied.

not to mention.

Back then, in order to assist Zizhen in becoming the cave master, they all worked hard and hoped that the cave master would have a good life after he came out of seclusion.

Now……

how so?

If you have a great heart, can you ignore other people? In order to push you to the position of the cave master, do you know how many people died because of this?

As thoughts turn, some people are already feeling unwilling and even resentful.

"Cave Master."

Zhou Yi couldn't help but ask:

"What should we do with the remaining outer disciples? What should we do with the gold diggers who collect red gold sand? What should we do with the barbarians outside the mountain?"

Yushu stabilized his body and looked up. The others also came back to their senses and looked at Zizhen.

This is the key!

"I intend to divide the original area of ​​Batu Caves into six parts. If you are willing, you can take any part. You only need to turn in 20,000 spiritual stones every year."

Zizhen spoke slowly, obviously planning ahead:

"You can also take away all the disciples kept in the Poison Court and the Animal Court. I think you can also properly arrange the remaining outer disciples and gold diggers."

Everyone looked at each other.

Twenty thousand spirit stones?

This is undoubtedly a huge sum of money for several people in the field, but if compared with the output of the huge Batu Cave, it is no less than a drop in the bucket.

Is it possible?

Zizhen plans to divide the feudal lords?

And there are only six shares, so even if two or three people join forces to occupy one share, as long as there is output, they can still make a lot of money.

"Cave... Cave Master."

Someone asked cautiously:

"Our strength is limited, so if we rashly acquire it, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold it?"

"It doesn't matter." Zizhen has obviously considered this issue:

"In a few days, I will go to Qianman Mountain and Wanling Cave to say hello to them. No one will disturb you for ten years."

"Ten years later..."

"As long as you pay enough, I can take action."

Take a walk?

I'm afraid it's not to establish authority!

It's just that the other party has just advanced to Daoji for a few years, how can he subdue the surrounding forces? Zhou Yi remains skeptical about this.

"Cave Master."

The jade book even said:

"You are rich in gold, how can you take risks?"

"Don't worry." For the first time, a faint smile appeared on Zizhen's face, and even her voice became much softer:

"The Batu Cave inheritance method is different. Although I have just entered Taoji, I am not weak. At least Qianman Mountain and Wanling Cave can't defeat me."

"also……"

Her voice paused slightly and continued:

"If someone doesn't want to leave, they can continue to stay in the mountain. However, once the decision is made, it cannot be changed. From now on, they will live in the mountain forever."

The jade book turned white.

"Separate feudal lords?"

Criminal court.

Kang Rong's eyes were straightened, he stared at the wine cup in front of him and was stunned on the spot. After a long time, he smiled bitterly:

"Cave Master, you are trying to drive me away!"

He stayed here just as a chess piece of Qixuanmen to restrain Zizhen. After all, the Xingyuan formation was extremely important to Batu Caves.

As long as you control the formation, you can force Zizhen to compromise on some things.

The idea is good.

But the target of Qixuanmen is not Zizhen, but the force of Batu Cave. After all, no matter how strong a person is, there is only a limit to what he can do.

A force with tens of thousands of disciples on one side is different.

Now.

Zizhen directly split up the Batu Caves and sent away all the disciples. How could a single person be afraid of the coercion of the Qixuan Sect?

If she really made her anxious, I was afraid she would be killed on the spot!

"Not really."

Zhou Yi spoke:

"Perhaps, the cave master really has a great heart, so he drove everyone away to leave some peace and quiet. This is also a good thing for you."

"At least you don't have to stick to this place."

"Heh..." Kang Rong chuckled, noncommittal:

"What about inheritance?"

"I think the current cave owner is cold-hearted and even extremely lonely. She wants to completely cut off the roots of Batu Cave."

"If you are so cruel to yourself, no wonder you can kill Lin Shang."

Zhou Yi was silent.

What's really scary about Zizhen's move is that he no longer accepts inner disciples, which is equivalent to directly eliminating anyone from Batu Cave who can advance to the Taoist level.

unless,

Change his method!

It is not obvious now, but as long as the princes are really divided, the 'kings of princes' will also modify other methods for the future of future generations.

In a few decades, the inheritance of the Five Poisons and Eight Evils will probably be completely destroyed.

decades.

Ordinary people can't afford to wait, but for a Daoji monk whose life span is 300 years old, it is not very long and has enough patience to consume.

However, Zizhen was better than the previous generation of cave masters, at least he didn't attack his fellow disciples after he advanced to foundation building.

Instead, she plans to use her time to kill people of the same generation. When the next generation comes, the Batu Caves will completely change in her hands.

Kang Rong sighed:

"Zizhen, you must hate Batu Caves so much that you want to cut off its inheritance!"

"This has nothing to do with us." Zhou Yi said:

"What are you going to do?"

"I should ask you this." Kang Rong turned sideways with envy in his eyes:

"Brother Zhou can occupy one of the six areas. If we can acquire the area where Fang City is located, the harvest from Fang City alone will be enough to pay the share every year."

"You can earn some money!"

"Ha..." Zhou Yi chuckled:

"I don't know. Qixuanmen is not interested in the share in my hand. I am willing to sell it for the price of one Foundation Establishment Pill."

"Huh?" Kang Rong was stunned for a moment, then looked solemn:

"Brother Zhou, are you serious about this?"

"Of course it's true." Zhou Yi nodded:

"But you'd better hurry up. The cave master won't let us go down the mountain, and he requires that the candidates for the six shares be decided in the next few days."

"Don't worry." Kang Rong took out something from his body:

"Answers will be available within three days."

…………

Mountain top.

The black wind howled.

Zizhen sat cross-legged on the rock, with his back to the black wind. The black cloak on his body was flying, swallowing up the invisible evil spirit whistling out from behind.

A figure came from below and landed close to him.

"Cave Master."

"Jade book." Zizhen opened his eyes and smiled calmly:

"No need to meet outsiders, just call me Senior Sister."

"Yes." Yushu's pretty face turned red, she lowered her head and whispered:

"Sister."

"Can I... stay on the mountain?"

"Stay on the mountain?" Zi Zhen tilted her head, her beautiful eyes flashing:

"Yushu, you have to think about it. Outside, you are the master of the party and have no restrictions. You may not meet many people in your life on the mountain."

"Senior sister." Yushu's voice said:

"Can't I find you?"

"I..." Zi Zhen chuckled, looked up at the black clouds in the sky, and said after a long time:

"I will spend most of my time in seclusion until my cultivation is stable in a few decades. Can you...can you wait?"

The jade book turned white.

"rest assured."

Zi Zhen spoke slowly:

"You and I have known each other for many years. Even if you leave the mountain, you can come back to me, and I will help you get a Foundation Establishment Pill."

"If you can build the foundation, we have plenty of time."

Yushu looked stunned.

She knew that her chances of building a foundation were slim.

"so……"

Looking at Zizhen, Yushu smiled bitterly, his beautiful eyes turned red:

"Sister, are you planning to cut off all contact with us?"

"you,"

"What a cruel heart!"

"We are sisters." Zizhen said calmly:

"But in the end, it will take a different path. I have reminded you several times not to rely too much on one person, including me."

"Only you can rely on yourself!"

"Ha..." Yushu raised his head, revealing his slender neck:

"In the final analysis, you are still cold-hearted. Once you achieve your goal, you will draw a clear line with us. As expected of you!"

"I have dismantled the Batu Caves and given them to you, and I will also go elsewhere to exchange them for foundation-building pills for you. What are you not satisfied with?" Zizhen frowned.

"have!"

Yushu’s voice mentioned:

"Why is Zhou Yi here?"

"He is not a pawn of Qixuanmen." For the sake of years of sisterhood, Zizhen patiently explained:

"I talked to him, and it was what I asked him to do to contact the people from Qixuanmen."

"Really?" Yushu snorted coldly:

"But the maid next to him has already joined the Qixuanmen. He himself is about to be alienated and does not have many years to live. Will the place in his hand still fall into the Qixuanmen?"

Zi Zhen frowned.

Of course she knew about this, but what if it was taken over by Qixuanmen?

On the contrary, if she refused, it might cause more unnecessary trouble. Although she was not afraid, she did not want to cause more trouble because of this matter.

"I want his share." Yushu Tuqiong saw.

"..." Zizhen looked up, her beautiful eyes twinkling, and she nodded slowly after a long time:

"good!"

Yushu turned around and walked down the mountain without saying a word. His face was expressionless, but when he got down the mountain, he suddenly knelt down and cried bitterly.

…………

Zhou Yi stepped on the flame and landed lightly on the ground.

"Cave Master."

Looking at Zizhen, he cupped his fists and raised his hands:

"You're looking for me?"

"Um."

Zizhen's eyes were long and full of melancholy and loneliness. He looked into the distance for a long time before he slowly came back to his senses and said slowly:

"I see that the aura in your body is like boiling water. It is already unstable, but you have also reached the perfection of refining the energy. Have you ever considered building a Taoist foundation?"

"Of course." Zhou Yi's eyes flashed:

"It's a pity that there is no foundation-building pill."

As he spoke, he 'scanned' the sea of ​​consciousness light curtain.

Name: Zhou Yi

Age: 42

Cultivation: Perfect Qi Refining (1/10)

Unlike other realms, Qi Refining Consummation only has ten experience points, but it seems extremely difficult to improve, and the experience is different from before.

One experience point does not mean that Zhou Yi needs to add nine more.

But the possibility of a successful breakthrough is only one tenth. In the same way, if you can have nine experience points, you are 90% sure to advance.

"Foundation Pill..."

Zi Zhen pursed her lips and said slowly:

"Actually, besides taking the Foundation Establishment Pill, you have a second option."

Zhou Yi moved his hands slightly.

There was, but he didn't want to choose.

"Your alienation is imminent, and you can probably maintain your mental state for a year or two. Even with the help of secret methods, it won't be delayed for too long."

Zizhen said:

"I can help you!"

Zhou Yi took a step back and asked:

"How to help?"

"There is a method in Batu Cave that can use the pure spirit of the true disciples and inner disciples to help the outer disciples cleanse their physical bodies." Zizhen said:

"Then, reach the state of perfecting the essence, energy and spirit and advancing to the foundation of Taoism."

"Once you achieve Taoji, you can maintain a normal state for decades. If you fail, you seem to have nothing to lose."

Spiritual contract!

It's just a nice saying.

Zhou Yi lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

He didn't know why the other party suddenly came up with this plan, but he himself was actually unwilling to try it.

Not to mention that this method would turn the outer disciples into slaves of the inner sect and the True Inheritance. He himself also had many secrets that were difficult to reveal.

"Uh-huh!"

Before Zhou Yi could answer, an invisible force pulled him down in front of Zizhen.

"Be still and concentrate."

Zizhen's voice was solemn, and she raised one hand lightly, and the pure Daoji magic power quietly covered Zhou Yi's body, and flowed inward following a certain connection.

"snort!"

Zhou Yi's body shook slightly, and the Zhenyuan Demon Ape moved spontaneously, its body suddenly expanded, and became as big as ten feet as if blown by air.

at the same time,

The Immortality Kung Fu and the Heart-Suspending Mirror are operating rapidly.

"Huh?"

Zizhen instantly realized something was wrong.

The entangled breath cannot be completely hidden even by the second-level three-dimensional breath gathering, but she obviously expected it:

"Sure enough, in addition to the inheritance of Batu Cave, you have also practiced other techniques. No wonder you can maintain your mental stability in the Criminal Court."

"You can also practice other methods and your cultivation can progress so quickly. Zhou Yi, your talent is extraordinary!"

While she was speaking, she had already used her secret technique to smooth out the strangeness in Zhou Yi's body with her own breath, and at the same time put her own mark into it.

This process is similar to refining a weapon.

Leave the imprint of your soul on the magic weapon, and you will naturally not betray yourself in the future, but now you are treating people as a magic weapon.

Zhou Yi looked indifferent, but his thoughts changed rapidly.

He didn't want to be someone else's slave. Fortunately, he had anticipated this experience, so he immediately restrained his longevity skills and used all his strength to activate the Zhenyuan Demonic Ape Transformation.

At the same time, gently exhale the turbid air, and use the secret method of joy to entangle the breath that has entered the body.

Joy Dharma is anything but general.

And after Zhou Yi's deduction, he was specially prepared for today.

The breath changed, and the invisible brand was silently changed.

"Um!"

Zizhen, who was practicing his skills, blushed. He couldn't help but open his eyes and look at Zhou Yi. He pursed his lips, then suppressed the restlessness in his heart and continued to cast spells.

It's not like she's never used spiritual contracts before, but this time it's different.

His own breath sank into Zhou Yi's body, as if he was being touched by a pair of hands. Although there was no contact, his heart was filled with ripples.

And the depth of Zhou Yi's background is beyond imagination.

seem……

You can really advance to Taoji!

If Zhou Yi can advance to Daoji, she will also have an extra helper, which is naturally a good thing for her.

After all, after all the chaos before, all the original Taoist beasts on the mountain were dead and old, and none of them were available anymore.

So even though it was a little weird, Zizhen still didn't stop.

For Zhou Yi, it was even more joyful.

Cultivation: Perfect Qi training (2/10)

In just a moment, the success rate increased by 10%.
