Strange mountains and rivers

After sitting for a while at Wu Tianen's place, Chen Huaisheng originally wanted to sit with Gou Yiwei, but he didn't expect that Gou Yiwei had gone out to travel.

Gou Yiwei, who was still strong despite his old age, really made Chen Huaisheng admire him.

He failed to build his foundation and fell into the ninth level of Qi Refining. After more than ten years of silence, he actually returned to the peak and succeeded in building his foundation. Chen Huaisheng felt that this example was even more inspiring than his own story.

Let those old guys who have been wandering in the high stage of Qi Refining for many years and have no ambition to make progress and only seek comfort because they think that it is hopeless to break through the foundation and have no ambition to make progress see that he failed to build his foundation at the age of more than eighty, and succeeded in building his foundation after a comeback at the age of ninety. They are not even as old as him, so how can they have the face to eat and wait for death in the sect?

Of course, Chen Huaisheng also knew that Gou Yiwei was a rare person who succeeded in building his foundation at the age of ninety, but his spirit of getting stronger and stronger with more setbacks was really admirable.

Now Gou Yiwei seems to be completely inspired. After building the first level of foundation, he is unwilling to stay in the initial stage of foundation building for his whole life, and he will strive for a longer-term goal.

Going out to travel and gain experience, and then coming back to practice hard, may not be unable to reach a higher level.

Where to go without Gou Yiwei?

For a while, Chen Huaisheng found that he actually didn't have many suitable places to go.

It's not that there is no place to go, but there are not many suitable places to go.

Whether it is Wang Yao, Xu Tianfeng, Zhao Sitian, or Teng Dingyuan, Yang Husheng, they are not suitable.

It feels more like showing off. Chen Huaisheng is unwilling to bear this reputation, although he also knows that perhaps today or tomorrow, the news of his successful foundation building will be completely spread in the sect.

But going back to Yunzhong Mountain like this, Chen Huaisheng feels that he seems to be a little timid. Why do you have to hide your foundation building, as if you are afraid that others will know.

This tangled mentality made Chen Huaisheng himself feel boring. He was more cautious than when he was an official in his previous life.

After building the foundation, shouldn't he be high-spirited, independent, fearless, and unstoppable?

Well, in theory, it should be so, but being in this sect, Chen Huaisheng realized that even in the sect of cultivating immortals, the human relations and worldly affairs are no less shallow than the sly and sly officialdom in his previous life.

Even if he is already a Purple Mansion Immortal Lord and the head of the sect, Shang Jiuling is still troubled. He has to think about how to balance the relationship between all parties while expanding the sect.

When they made the decision to accept the Ding family and Lingyun Sect, they should have been mentally prepared for this.

Shaking his head, Chen Huaisheng simply stopped thinking about it and went to Wang Yao.

Xu Tianfeng had just established his foundation, and Zhao Sitian had not yet established his foundation, so it was not appropriate for him to go alone. However, Wang Yao was his senior brother, and they had always had a good relationship. He should also be preparing to break through to the second level of Qi Refining. If he went there, he would not attract so much attention.

Wang Yao had already set up another cave.

As a foundation-building disciple and the eldest disciple of the headmaster, he certainly had the qualifications, but he was quite trusted by Shang Jiuling, so the cave was not too far away, just beside Longlinyuan.

When Chen Huaisheng landed in front of his cave, two Dao seeds immediately came to greet him.

There was also a boy with a horn behind him, with delicate eyebrows and full of childishness, but he rushed forward before the two Dao seeds and asked, "Are you here to visit my master?"

Hey, Wang Yao also accepted disciples?

Didn't he say that he was busy with chores and had to practice to break through to the second level of foundation building, and said that he had no energy? Could it be that he was also excited by the prey?

He took a look at the boy with a pink face and curious eyes. Well, he is a little old to be called a boy, about eight or nine years old, and a little older to be called a child, but he has already understood the Dao bone, which is really rare.

"Are you the new disciple of Senior Brother Wang? What's your name?" Chen Huaisheng stopped and looked at the boy with a smile.

The two Dao seeds next to him also saw Chen Huaisheng's extraordinary demeanor. They knew that he was most likely a friend of their cave master, and he was respectfully called Senior Brother, which meant that he was most likely from the sect. They all stood aside with their hands folded.

"My name is Lian Zhongwen, and I am the new disciple of Master. I have been a disciple for three months." The boy's voice was crisp and his eyebrows were full of spirit. No wonder Wang Yao was moved. He was only eight or nine years old and understood the Dao bone.

"Oh, since you are the brother of Master Wang, then you can just call me Uncle Chen, and say Uncle Chen is here to visit."

Before Chen Huaisheng finished speaking, Wang Yao had already come out, and saw the Yunhe Qi hidden in Chen Huaisheng at a glance. He took two quick steps and said in surprise: "Huaisheng, you have established your foundation? When did it happen?"

The following greetings and questions and answers gradually turned into sighs and sighs, "It seems that I really need to retreat, otherwise I will be surpassed by you if I wait any longer."

"I am afraid that I don't have the ability to advance to the next level in a short period of time. As for my senior brother, hasn't he accepted a new disciple now?" Chen Huaisheng asked with a smile.

"Ah, that's true. I didn't think of accepting disciples at first, but when I met Zhongwen, I had a good impression of him and I immediately wanted to accept him as a disciple..." Wang Yao said with a wry smile: "He also has an earth-type spiritual root. Although his family background is ordinary, he is very spiritual and is somewhat similar to me when I was a child. I think I can also cultivate a disciple who can surpass me. I don't ask for many, just one is enough..." Hearing Wang Yao, who has always been simple, say this, Chen Huaisheng also knows that this is fate. It is often difficult for cultivators to refuse a disciple who has a good impression, feels right, and has good conditions. Thinking about it, it seems that I have never encountered such a situation.

Even though Yun Lei was sent to her by Yun He and his wife, she only thought the little girl was nice, but she definitely didn't feel the same way Wang Yao felt about the child.

"Your disciple has already enlightened?" Chen Huaisheng nodded.

"Well, he has enlightened in half a month, but it may take some time to reach the first level of Qi Refining. He is a little too young, he has just turned nine years old." Wang Yao's words were full of praise, "Although he has a lively and agile temperament, he is They have earthly spiritual roots, and everyone knows that those who are not compatible with each other are either mediocre or talented."

The nature of metal is hard and sharp, the nature of wood is pliable, the nature of water is flexible, the nature of fire is fiery, and the nature of earth is thick. These are the origins of the five elements.

The spiritual root corresponding to the monk's temperament will be affected to some extent, but if his spiritual root is too different from his personality, then it means that this person either has poor prospects or has excellent talents.

Of course, there are more of the former than the latter, and Lian Zhongwen should be the perfect talent in Wang Yao's mind.

"Well, I think this guy is extraordinary." Chen Huaisheng complimented smoothly.

It's just that there are so many people with excellent talents, but so few people who can truly become successful. Talent is very important, but cultivation cannot be achieved by relying on talent alone.

It can be seen that Wang Yao is also in a good mood, but he is a little worried. This can be regarded as pain and happiness.

As soon as the conversation started, Wang Yao also asked about the Shangyuan Taoist Association in Bianjing.

When he learned that Shang Jiuling had made it clear that Chen Huaisheng had to attend the meeting, he couldn't help but smile: "I can finally be freed this time. There are Tianfeng and you, Wang Chi, and there are also many people from Lingyun's group. But the options are much wider, and it seems that Si Tian can't escape. I hope he can ascend to the foundation after experiencing the Taoist meeting. "

In this round of Shangyuan Taoism, the Chonghua sect has many more disciples participating than three years ago.

Firstly, it merged with the Lingyun Sect, and secondly, it was now regarded as a hand extended by the Da Zhao cultivation world to Hebei. Many people were watching, even the officials and Taoist palaces wanted to take a look at the great power that had gone through so many twists and turns. What exactly is Hua Pai like?

Among the four states of Hebei, Zhao has only reached out to Yanzhou, but no one cares about the three states of You, Jin, and Yun.

Although the Qi Luck Emperor Banner, which was related to the mountains and rivers, had already made a deal with the Beirong people, it was not easy to bring this land into the hands of the Zhao government.

If the government enters rashly and loses its dignity, the Emperor's Flag of Luck may be lost again.

This is also the reason why the Zhao official family has been reluctant to enter lightly.

And the attitude of the Zhao official family is so vague that no one of the other sects and families would be willing to take the risk unless it is absolutely necessary. By then, not only will they lose their wings, but they may even wipe out the sect.

This Lingyun Sect is already an example, and now everyone has to take a look at what the Chonghua Sect is like.

"Brother, I heard that the scale and momentum of this Taoist meeting are even greater than the last one. Even the sects of Southern Chu, Wuyue and Western Tang can send representatives to participate?" Chen Huaisheng asked.

"I heard that is the case, but not all the sects of the Western Tang, Nanchu, and Wuyue sects will participate. Probably some sects will send their disciples to discuss and exchange." Wang Yao shook his head: "But there is no doubt that the scale and influence of this time With greater power, the rankings on each list are more important, and some sects may encounter huge troubles. "

Chen Huaisheng knew immediately when he heard it, "Nine Lotus Sect?"

"Well, in addition to the Jiulian Sect, there are one or two sects, but none of them are as influential as the Jiulian Sect, and the situation of the Jiulian Sect may have reached a point of burning fire." Wang Yao sighed, "Their internal strife It has reached the point where water and fire are incompatible. If it had not been like this, it would not have caused an uproar in the city. It is your own fault. "

Chen Huaisheng actually heard Tang Jingtian mention it, but Tang Jingtian seemed a little indifferent.

The Gui Peng Sect has always been a marginalized alternative in the Jiulian Sect and has rarely participated in the internal disputes within the Jiulian Sect. Therefore, it has a more indifferent attitude towards the internal strife within the Jiulian Sect.

The three sects, Yaolian, Jingfu, and Yuanhe, each have their own supporters. Any one of them can have the same strength as before the annexation of the Lingyun Sect and the Ding family. They have been in a stalemate and have reached this point.

"Once he is famous on the Taoist list, Jiulian Sect will probably fall apart, right?" Chen Huaisheng couldn't help but feel chilly in his heart.

Thirty or fifty years ago, during the peak period of Jiulian Sect, they were second only to Tianyun Sect. Even Taihua Dao and Huaxi Sword Sect were slightly inferior, and naturally they had many enemies.

Now that it suddenly breaks down, I'm afraid countless people will pounce on it and eat it.
