God Emperor

After entering Lingfeng Pavilion, Zhang Ruochen called Xiao Hei out and started discussing together.

Zhang Ruochen said: "Having entered Liangyi Sect, can you sense the location of the altar?"

"I will make some calculations first."

Xiao Hei stretched out his two claws and carved crooked lines on the ground. All the lines were connected together and soon formed a compass with a diameter of two meters.

"Wow——"

A blast of true energy was released, and suddenly, the compass emitted white brilliance, rising from the ground and spinning slowly.

When it rotated for the third time, the compass settled down and burst out with a ray of light, pointing to the southwest.

"Southwest."

Zhang Ruochen rummaged around in the study and soon found a book called "Liang Yi Zong Geography Mountains and Rivers" on the bookshelf.

"The Liangyi Sect is divided into three palaces and seventy-two courtyards. To the southwest of the Changsheng Academy are the Sunu Academy, the Demon Suppressing Academy, and the Shangqing Palace."

Sunuyuan is the closest to Changshengyuan, and Shangqing Palace is the farthest from Changshengyuan.

Zhang Ruochen pointed his finger on the map and said: "Since the compass points to the southwest, let's start from the nearest Sovereign Women's Academy."

In a quarter of an hour, Zhang Ruochen relied on his strong mental power to memorize all the contents of the entire book. Afterwards, he left Lingfeng Pavilion and planned to go to the Prime Women's Academy to investigate.

Just after walking out of the gate, an outer disciple wearing a white robe came up to him. He looked like he was in his early twenties. He bowed to Zhang Ruochen and said, "Senior Brother Lin, the Lord has ordered you to go to Zixia immediately. View.”

The Lord is the master of Zixia Lingshan, and all outer disciples, inner disciples, and disciples of the Holy Tradition must obey his orders.

Zhang Ruochen frowned and said, "Now?"

"That's right, right now." said the outer disciple.

"You lead the way!"

Zhang Ruochen originally didn't want to see the Lord, but he had no choice. After all, he was a disciple of the Liang Yi Sect, so naturally he couldn't disobey the Lord's order.

The investigation of the altar can only be postponed for the time being.

Zixia Temple is located halfway up Zixia Lingshan Mountain. It is built of green jade bamboo. The Taoist temple is not very majestic and there is nothing special about it.

However, Zhang Ruochen had just walked outside the Taoist temple when he felt a strong oppressive force. It seemed that there was a huge holy power falling on his shoulders.

"That Lord, should be a semi-saint."

Zhang Ruochen's heart moved and he immediately became cautious.

He worked hard to circulate the thin holy energy in his body, adjust his temperament, and try to make himself more arrogant, more in line with Lin Yue's character.

Walking into Zixia Temple, I saw dozens of people gathered inside. All of them were elders of Zixia Lingshan, and most of them had reached the fish-dragon realm.

In addition, Zhao Han'er, Xu Chen, and the inner disciples who had returned to the mountain together before were also standing on both sides of the Taoist temple.

Directly above the Taoist temple, there stands a humanoid stone statue, about two meters high, wearing Taoist robes and a long sword hanging from his waist, looking solemn and solemn.

That holy power emanates from the stone statue.

"Traitor, when you see the Lord's stone statue, why don't you kneel down and salute?" A white-haired old man wearing a blue Taoist robe opened his eyes and scolded Zhang Ruochen coldly.

Zhang Ruochen glanced at the old white-haired Taoist and guessed that he was Lin Yue's master.

Zhang Ruochen stood in the center of the Taoist temple, standing proudly, and said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Didn't you kneel down and salute in front of the stone statue of the Lord?"

The old white-haired Taoist stood up suddenly. The true energy in his body circulated rapidly, forming a strong vortex of wind around his body. He said in a cold voice: "Are you going to kneel or not?"

The old white-haired Taoist is very powerful, and his cultivation has reached the seventh transformation of fish and dragon.

His momentum exploded, condensing into layers of mighty air waves, crushing towards Zhang Ruochen.

"Boom."

In an instant, the airflow in the entire Taoist temple shook violently.

Zhao Han'er, Xu Chen and other inner disciples were just standing on the edge when they were suppressed by the aura exuded by the white-haired old Taoist and unable to move.

One can imagine how terrible pressure Zhang Ruochen, who is at the center of the momentum, will endure?

If Zhang Ruochen was really Lin Yue, with only the Dzogchen realm of cultivation, he would not be able to withstand the pressure of the white-haired old man's momentum and would immediately kneel on the ground.

The current Zhang Ruochen is not afraid of the white-haired old man at all, and it is even less likely that he will be forced to kneel by his momentum.

Zhang Ruochen stood calmly and said proudly: "Master, even if you want me to kneel down, you should give me a reason, right?"

The old white-haired Taoist suddenly showed a look of surprise when he saw that Zhang Ruochen had managed to neutralize his aura effortlessly.

In the Taoist temple, some of the elders of Zixia Lingshan were closing their eyes to rest. At this moment, they all opened their eyes and stared at Lin Yue in surprise.

To be able to withstand the pressure of the monks in the seventh fish-dragon transformation, Lin Yue's cultivation must have broken through the limits of martial arts and reached the first fish-dragon transformation.

You know, Lin Yue's age is only thirty-six years old.

The thirty-six-year-old first fish-dragon monk was already considered quite outstanding, which naturally made the elders feel incredible.

In the Liangyi Sect, as long as you break through to the Fish-Dragon Realm before the age of sixty, you can become a Half-Saint as your teacher and become a "Holy Disciple".

After the age of sixty, those who break through to the Fish-Dragon Realm have little potential and limited achievements in life. At most, they can only be called "Elders in Green Robes".

The elders in the Taoist temple are all the lowest elders, the green-robed elders.

Originally, they were planning to deal with Lin Yue, even destroying Lin Yue's cultivation and expelling him from the mountain gate.

But now, at the age of thirty-six, Lin Yue has broken through to the Fish-Dragon Realm and can immediately become a disciple of the Holy Tradition, with a status even higher than theirs.

Who dares to punish him except the Lord?

Zhao Yibing's expression also changed. He never thought that Lin Yue's cultivation level had actually broken through to the fish-dragon realm.

All the elders in the Taoist temple knew that Lin Yue's cultivation had reached the fish-dragon realm, but the inner disciples did not know that.

Xu Chen had always disliked Lin Yue and knew that the elders wanted to punish him. At this time, he would not miss the opportunity to add insult to injury.

Xu Chen took a step forward and said coldly: "Lin Yue, you are an inner disciple of Liangyi Sect, but you succumbed to the lustful power of the evil monks, knelt down and begged for mercy, and brought shame to Liangyi Sect."

"Now, my uncle asked you to kneel down and salute the Lord's stone statue, but you don't obey. In your eyes, the Lord is worse than an evil monk? Even a person like you who is greedy for life and afraid of death is worthy of being a Liangyi A disciple of the sect?”

The reason why all the elders gathered at Zixia Temple was because they were all invited by Zhao Yibing to deal with Lin Yue.

The reason why Zhao Yibing did this was because he wanted to put all the blame for the lost treasure hunting compass on "Lin Yue".

Zhao Yibing secretly thought that since he had offended Lin Yue, he would take this opportunity to expel him from the sect in one fell swoop. He would never be given the chance to become a disciple of the Holy Tradition.

If Lin Yue becomes a disciple of the Holy Tradition, will there be a place for Zhao Yibing in the Liangyi Sect in the future?

Zhao Yibing said righteously: "Lin Yue, you can just kneel down to the evil monk. I am too lazy to care about you, a weakling. However, you actually betrayed me, causing the treasure compass to be taken away by the evil monk. You can Do you know that the treasure hunting compass is the most precious treasure of Zixia Lingshan? Elders, how do you think we should deal with Lin Yue? "

One of the old men with a hooked nose said coldly: "Lin Yue not only lost the face of Liang Yi Sect, but also betrayed the elders of the sect. The lightest punishment is to break his legs and abolish his cultivation. Expelled from the mountain gate."

The inner disciples headed by Xu Chen suddenly laughed to themselves.

As long as Lin Yue is expelled from the sect, they will have the opportunity to become the senior brothers of the inner sect, and they will be able to pursue the younger junior sister openly and honestly in the future.

Zhang Ruochen had just arrived at Liangyi Sect, how could he be willing to be expelled from Liangyi Sect like this?

The old white-haired Taoist said in a deep voice: "Lin Yue, do you have anything else to say?"

"Of course I have something to say."

Zhang Ruochen stared at Zhao Yibing and said: "Uncle Zhao, you keep saying that I knelt down to the evil monks, and that I betrayed you, causing the treasure hunting compass to be lost. But, have you said the reason? Who put everyone to death? Danger?"

"what reason?"

Zhao Yibing felt guilty, but still pretended to be calm.

Zhang Ruochen laughed loudly and said: "That day in Qingyun County, my uncle used the treasure hunting compass and found that there was the aura of the holy stone nearby. So, you got greedy and wanted to snatch the holy stone, but in the end, you provoked someone A powerful evil monk, am I right?"

Zhao Yibing gritted his teeth and said, "So what? The holy stone of the evil monk has an illegitimate origin. Why can't a poor Taoist get it?"

"It's not taking, it's grabbing."

Zhang Ruochen said with a sarcastic smile: "The dignified Qingpao elder of Liangyi Sect is going to dress up as a robber to rob the holy stone of an evil monk. If word spreads, wouldn't Liangyi Sect be disgraced?"

Upon hearing Zhang Ruochen's words, all the elders present immediately frowned and glanced at Zhao Yibing with some disgust.

Zhang Ruochen continued: "The evil master that Uncle Zhao provoked was quite powerful. Even Luo Shi, the fourth killer of the Blood Cloud Sect, was defeated by him. Uncle Zhao was seriously injured by one of his moves and lost his ability to fight. "

Everyone in the Taoist temple took a breath of cold air.

Luo Shi, the fourth killer of the Blood Cloud Sect, is a well-known evil master. Most of the elders present have heard of his name.

"That evil master actually defeated Luo Shi? With his strength, how did you escape from him?" asked an older elder in green robe.

Zhang Ruochen sighed and said: "Uncle Zhao wanted to snatch his holy stone. He must have angered him and claimed that he would kill all of us. In order to save everyone's lives, I can only kneel down and beg him."

"Of course I know that there is gold under a man's knees, and I also know that integrity is more important than life. I would rather die than kneel. However, as the inner eldest brother of Zixia Lingshan, do I have to watch all the junior brothers and sisters? All of them died tragically at the hands of an evil cultivator because of Uncle Zhao?"

"Uncle Zhao is an old man who has lived for most of his life. Of course he doesn't care about his own life. However, all the junior brothers and sisters are still very young. There is still a long way to go in the future. They need to go. I would rather suffer some insults myself. Save their lives."

Zhang Ruochen let out a long sigh and looked at the dozen inner disciples standing not far away with a rather sad expression.
