Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Improving Spiritual Root Qualification
Chapter 698 Wang Erniu: Is there any secret operation?
Time flies,
Soon, ten months passed, and there was only the last month left before the Soul Seizing Conference officially began.
At this time, Jinyang Fairy City was almost crowded with people. Monks from all over the Jin Dynasty came here one after another.
Want to witness this century-old event?
At the same time, we took advantage of this rare opportunity for monks from various places to gather together to collect treasure resources from various places.
On this day, Zhou Xun and Tianci Zhenjun were chatting in the cave.
Suddenly, a burst of fire flew in from outside the door and turned into a transmission note and fell into Zhou Xun's hand.
With a flick of his fingers, a strange voice came out.
"Sun Qian, a disciple of the White Bone Mountain Sect, pays homage to Senior Zhou Xunzhou!"
"Bone Mountain?"
Zhou Xun was stunned when he heard these three words.
Naturally, he knew about this sect. It was the largest sect in Jingzhou, and it could be ranked among the top ten in the entire Jin Dynasty.
There are more than twenty Guang Yuanying monks in his sect.
What’s even more amazing is that there are two late Yuanying monks,
His supreme elder, Master Baigu, is a person at the peak of Yuanying. His strength is well-known in the entire Jin Dynasty.
It's just that Zhou Xun has never interacted with the people from Baigu Mountain, so why his disciples are here makes him a little confused.
But thinking that the other party was the largest sect in Jingzhou, and that he would also need to work in Jingzhou in the future, he decided to go out to see him.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw a middle-aged man in his thirties standing at the door with a respectful expression.
Seeing Zhou Xun come out,
The middle-aged man bowed his hands to the ground, gave a big gift, and slowly said:
"I have met Senior Zhou. My young master is hosting a banquet at Tianxiang Tower tomorrow and invites Senior to attend. Please take the time to come!"
"This is an invitation!"
As he spoke, he took out an exquisite invitation and held it in front of Zhou Xun with both hands.
Zhou Xun took it, thought for a moment, and then asked:
"I remember that I don't have any friendship with your young master, so why would you invite me to go?"
"This junior doesn't know about this, the young master just sent me to deliver the message!" the middle-aged man replied respectfully.
Zhou Xun frowned slightly, his thoughts racing.
This young master has never known him, and in the years since he came to Dajin, he has never interacted with anyone.
His message here is basically a blank slate.
Now the so-called young master of White Bone Mountain can not only accurately find the location of his cave, but also knows his name.
There is something unusual about it, and there must be a demon when things go wrong. Zhou Xun decided to find out the truth of the matter.
Moreover, Tianxiang Tower is located within Jinyang Fairy City and is safe.
Fighting is also prohibited in Jinyang Fairy City, so he is not afraid even if Baigu Mountain has any plans.
After thinking about it, Zhou Xun decided to go there, so he nodded and said:
"Okay, reply to your young master for me and say that Zhou will definitely go there then!"
"Thank you, senior!" The middle-aged man was overjoyed when he heard this. He cupped his hands again and left the place immediately.
Zhou Xun returned to the living room and briefly discussed the matter with Tianci Zhenjun and others.
"Could it be related to the Soul Seizing Conference?" Tianci Zhenjun guessed.
Zhou Xun is currently applying for Jiangling Mansion in Jingzhou, and the gate of Baigu Mountain is also in Jingzhou.
"I guess that's the case. Let's go to Tianxiang Tower tomorrow to see what he's selling!" Zhou Xun said.
"Do you want us to go with you?"
"No, no one in Jinyang Fairy City dares to disobey and take action at will!" Zhou Xun shook his head.
You know, Jinyang Immortal City’s rule of not taking action was formulated by the ancestor of the gods of the Jin Dynasty himself.
Back then, there were monks at the peak of Nascent Soul who relied on their cultivation and dared to take action in the city.
As a result, he was killed in public by the ancestor of the Jin Dynasty. From then on, the whole city was in solemn silence, and no one dared to do anything here again.
Soon, a day passed, and it was the day when the young master of Baigu Mountain entertained guests.
Zhou Xun got up early in the morning and walked out of the cave.
Tianxiang Tower is one of the four major restaurants in Jinyang Fairy City. It serves a variety of delicacies. It is said that most of them are prepared with the body of the third-level demon king.
There are even delicacies made from the materials of the fourth-level Demon King.
About half an hour later, Zhou Xun arrived at his destination, Tianxiang Tower.
This building is magnificent, five stories high, with various rare gems inlaid on the cornices and brackets, reflecting colorful light.
The pillars on both sides of the gate are carved with exquisite dragon and phoenix patterns, which are lifelike, as if they are about to soar into the sky at the next moment.
As soon as Zhou Xun walked to the door, he saw a middle-aged man coming up to him. It was the man who delivered the letter yesterday.
"I have met Senior Zhou. Our young master must be very happy that Senior can come!"
"Senior, please follow me to the top floor." After saying that, he led the way.
Entering Tianxiang Tower, it was very lively. The lobby was full of monks, and the sounds of chatting and clinking glasses were intertwined.
The air is also filled with the rich aroma of wine and food.
The young master of White Bone Mountain decided on the entire fifth floor.
Zhou Xun followed the middle-aged man through the lobby and up the stairs.
Arriving on the fifth floor, it was much quieter here.
The middle-aged man came to the door and knocked lightly: "Young Master, Senior Zhou Xunzhou is here."
"Please come in quickly." A young man's voice came from inside.
The middle-aged man then opened the door, made an invitation gesture toward the inside, and then respectfully stepped back.
The fifth floor was extremely luxuriously decorated, with thick blankets covering the floor, and a faint spiritual light. With Zhou Xun's knowledge, he could naturally tell that this was from a fourth-level demon fox!
Even he did not have such luxury as fourth-grade animal skin as a carpet.
On the surrounding walls, there was a faint flash of spiritual light, which clearly depicted high-level restrictions and emitted spiritual consciousness, but it was bounced away at once.
There are clearly four levels of restrictions,
This also ensures privacy here.
There are tables and tables in the hall, and there are already many people sitting inside. They are all monks in the Nascent Soul stage.
At the top, there is a young man wearing a white brocade robe sitting. He has a handsome face and extraordinary temperament. He is in the early stage of Nascent Soul.
Seeing Zhou Xun come in, he smiled and cupped his hands: "I'm Bai Yu at Baigu Mountain. I've met fellow Taoist Zhou. It's a blessing to meet you today."
Zhou Xun slightly cupped his hands: "Young Master Bai, you're too polite. Zhou is just a casual cultivator. I wonder why the Young Master invited me here today?"
Bai Yu smiled and asked Zhou Xun to take a seat: "Brother Zhou, please sit down first. We will talk together later."
Zhou Xun nodded and chose a seat to sit down.
After another half an hour, the seats on the fifth floor were almost full. Zhou Xun scanned.
There were twenty-seven people in total,
There are twenty-one monks in the early stage and six monks in the middle stage.
At this moment, Bai Yu stood up, cleared his throat, and said:
"Everyone is here now!"
"Let me introduce myself first. I am Bai Yu, the young master of White Bone Mountain. I invite you all to come because we have important matters to discuss!"
"Everyone is participating in the selection of the master of Jiangling Mansion, but unfortunately, I, Bai Gushan, have taken a liking to this Jiangling Mansion!"
Everyone was shocked. It turned out that everyone in the field was going to participate in the Jiangling Mansion selection for the Star Reaching Conference.
I don't know where Bai Yu got this list, but he actually invited them all.
Zhou Xun's face also darkened. He didn't expect that the Jin Dynasty would be so unbearable that such confidential information would be leaked.
From this point of view, the selection of palace masters for the Soul Seizing Conference over the years has been decided secretly.
It’s just that he didn’t expect that Jingzhou Twenty-Seven Mansion would collide with Baigu Mountain by such a coincidence!
"So I hope you guys can give me Baigushan some face and make it easier for me to fight!"
As he spoke and waved, twenty maids walked out from behind, each carrying a wooden tray with a hill of high-grade spiritual stones placed on it.
"Those who give me face are all friends of my Bai Yu, and each of them will be given fifty high-grade spiritual stones. Anyone who doesn't give me face is my enemy of Baigu Mountain!"
"I'm afraid I won't be talking to you by then!" He said with a sneer.
At the same time, the old man in black robe next to him also exuded the coercion of a peak monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
"Everyone, think about it carefully!"
After that, he waved his sleeves, picked up the spirit wine and started drinking.
For a time, the atmosphere in the entire private room on the fifth floor became solemn.
Many monks frowned and looked at each other with hesitation in their eyes.
The White Bone Mountain has huge power, and there are even great monks sitting there. It is really not something they can offend, but they are unwilling to give up the competition in the Soul Seizing Conference.
At this time, an old man in blue shirt who was sitting in the corner and in the middle stage of Nascent Soul stood up slowly. His eyes were like lightning, he looked directly at Bai Yu, and said in a low voice:
"Young Master Bai, I respect you as the Young Master of Baigu Mountain, but your behavior is really contrary to fairness."
"I am participating in the Soul Seizing Conference in order to compete for the position of palace master in an upright manner. I am not here to accept your coercion and inducement."
Bai Yu frowned and looked at the old man in black robe: "Who is your Excellency?"
The old man in green clothes snorted coldly: "Although I am just a casual cultivator, I have my own principles. Your method will not work for me."
Bai Yu's face changed slightly, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes: "Feng Yang, do you know the consequences of going against Baigu Mountain?"
Feng Yang laughed loudly: "The consequences? I have been in power for many years, how can I be afraid of the threat of a young boy like you? Although your White Bone Mountain is powerful, you cannot trample the rules of this Soul Seizing Conference like this."
When other monks saw Feng Yang standing up to oppose, some secretly admired him, while others were more hesitant, not knowing how this conflict would develop.
Bai Yu's face was terrifyingly gloomy. He gritted his teeth and said, "Feng Yang, you are asking for death." As he said,
He waved his hand, and another early Yuanying monk walked out behind him, exuding a powerful aura, and the atmosphere in the entire private room suddenly became tense.
Feng Yang's expression remained unchanged, and the spiritual power fluctuations on his body became more intense. He stared at Bai Yu: "What? You still want to take action in Jinyang Fairy City?"
Bai Yu frowned. He knew the consequences of taking action in Jinyang Fairy City, but he was not willing to let it go.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the old man in black robe next to Bai Yu exuded the coercion of a peak monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, trying to suppress Feng Yang.
However, Feng Yang was not afraid at all. He shouted loudly, and the spiritual power in his body shone brightly. It actually competed with the pressure of the old man in black robes. The spiritual powers in the middle stage of Nascent Soul clashed with each other.
It caused a flash of light all around, but it directly activated the restriction.
Seeing this, other monks stood up and walked around,
Seeing this, Zhou Xun secretly took a few steps back.
Close to the stairwell,
If something goes wrong, run away immediately.
If a fight breaks out here, it will definitely attract the Jin Dynasty court. I'm afraid it won't be so easy to get away by then, and maybe they will be implicated.
"Feng Yang, you are very good. Master Wu, let's stop!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Bai Yu snorted coldly and waved his hands for the monks to retreat.
Then the old man in black robe put down his momentum.
"If you don't want to cooperate with us, you can leave. But the Liu family in Kongmingshan will probably be in trouble!" Bai Yu said with a sneer.
"How did you know?"
When Feng Yang heard this, his expression changed drastically.
"I don't know Feng Taoist friend" Bai Yu meant something.
Feng Yan's face changed from green to red, and he finally gritted his teeth and said:
"I quit the Jiangling Mansion selection!" Then he turned and left.
Seeing this, Bai Yu showed a satisfied smile, then glanced at everyone and said slowly:
"Fellow Daoist Feng has made the right choice. I don't know what your plans are. If you are willing to cooperate with our Bai family, you can take the spirit stone away!"
Hearing this, other people stepped forward one after another, took the spirit stones and left, but it was unclear how many people were really willing to give in.
Zhou Xun also mingled with the crowd and stepped forward to take the spirit stone and leave.
As for giving in, it is absolutely impossible.
The position of palace master is related to his future cultivation, so it is naturally impossible for him to agree to it. Now it is just a pretentious act.
Soon, everyone took away the spirit stones and left.
"Yu'er, I'm afraid there are many people here who are pretending to be cowardly. When the day comes, I'm afraid many people will still oppose us!"
At this time, the old man in black robe spoke.
"Of course I know, but in this way, at least 80% to 90% of the opponents can be eliminated!"
"I have other methods for the remaining ones!" Bai Yu smiled slightly.
After returning to the cave, Zhou Xundang told Tianci Zhenjun and Wang Erniu about what happened in Tianxiang Tower today.
The two of them were also greatly surprised when they heard this.
Unexpectedly, such an important Soul Seizing Conference would have so many tricks underneath.
"It seems that even if we win the position of palace master, there will be no peace at that time!" Tianci Zhenjun said.
"Yes, that White Bone Mountain is a local snake in Jingzhou!" Wang Erniu continued. Suddenly he remembered something and said happily:
"By the way, how about we inform the Jin Dynasty about this?"
True Lord Tianci shook his head: "Since Bai Yu dares to do this, he must be fully confident in controlling the situation. We must deal with it carefully and not expose any flaws."
Zhou Xun nodded and said, "That's right, let's stay put for now and continue preparing for the Soul Seizing Conference."
"Besides, with the strength of you and me, even if Master Baigu comes here, what do you and I have to fear?"
"It's just that the soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth!"
"Haha, that's right. With the three of us here, there's nothing to be afraid of!"
In the following days, Zhou Xun and the others continued to intensify their training, improve their own strength, and make final preparations for the Soul Seizing Conference.
No matter how many conspiracies Bai Yu has, as long as they are strong enough, they can break them all!
Time flies, another month has passed,
Finally, the day came for the Soul Seizing Conference to be officially held.
