Strange mountains and rivers

During the last Taoist meeting of the Qianji Sect, the sect ranked 23rd, and the overall ranking ranked 31st. Its strength was far better than the original Chonghua Sect, and even higher than the Baishi Sect.

However, after that Taoist meeting, the situation changed dramatically. The strength of Baishimen surged, and it had vaguely surpassed Thousand Machines Sect.

The Chonghua faction sadly moved north. If it had been two years ago, I'm afraid their ranking would have dropped a few places.

But today, after the Chonghua Sect annexed the Lingyun Sect and the Ding Family, its strength has also greatly increased. After having four Zifu True Lords, its strength is already on par with the Qianji Sect.

"Master Chang, are you alright?"

"Master Shang, Brother Fengbi?" The visitor was also very surprised when he saw Shang Jiuling and Zhu Fengbi, but he quickly realized that the other party came from Hebei, and smiled: "You two are also here to attend the Shangyuan Taoist meeting. of?"

"Yes, otherwise why would you go out at such a time? Hebei is covered with snow and three feet of ice, which is not as good as here in Jijun." Shangjiujian said with emotion.

"Haha, the Chonghua sect moved north to Hebei and dominated Yanzhou. In my opinion, it may not be bad. I have heard that the Chonghua sect is prospering in the past few years, which may disappoint many people."

Chang Xiangsong is not tall, but he is quite fat, with a broad face and a charming smile, like a Maitreya Buddha.

Zhu Fengbi also laughed. Chang Xiangsong was quite good at talking. Whether it was true or false, these words were in line with the wishes of disciple Chonghua: "Brother Chang, I am afraid that many people will not be happy to hear this."

"So what if you don't want to? We, the Qianji Sect, don't have to make a living in their hands." Chang Xiangsong said proudly: "We don't want to hang around in Bianjing City. On this three-thirds of an acre of land in Ji County, our Qianji Sect Not afraid of anyone."

Chang Xiangsong naturally had some confidence in saying this.

The Qianji Sect is not only the number one sect in Ji County, but also has a close relationship with the Wanxiang Sect.

In addition, he is good at making magic weapons and arranging magic arrays. His mountain gate is located in Yuchan Mountain and is very strict. Even among the mountain gates of the entire Da Zhao Sect, he is ranked among the top. Anyone who wants to break in will definitely There's a big price to pay.

The relationship between the family members of the Da Zhao Xiu Zhen Sect is complicated and confusing. Today they are friends, tomorrow they are enemies, and the alliances are vertical and horizontal, and they are unpredictable.

A few years ago, the Wanxiang Sect, Tianyun Sect, and Huaxi Sword Sect joined forces to target Taihua Dao. However, in just a few years, the Wanxiang Sect broke up with Tianyun Sect and the others, and instead joined forces with Taihua Dao to compete with Tianyun Sect and the others. Huaxi Sword Sect, and Dacheng Sect joined the alliance of Tianyun Sect and Huaxi Sword Sect, which was dazzling.

For example, the Chonghua Sect was not qualified to be ranked in the rankings before, and it was not the Chonghua Sect's turn to interfere in the battles between these large sects and families. However, after the merger of the Chonghua Sect and the Lingyun Sect, and now there is a vague influence in Hebei With Yanzhou showing signs of taking root, it seems to have caught the attention of some people.

This is one of the reasons why Shang Jiuling and Zhu Fengbi came to Bianjing this time.

Chang Xiangsong also noticed Ding Zongshou standing behind Shang Jiuling. As far as he could see, Shang Jiuling also introduced with a smile: "Brother Chang may not know you yet, but this is Senior Brother Ding Zongshou, the leader of our Chonghua Sect. Senior Brother Ding , and Senior Brother Ding’s hometown is from Jijun, this is Brother Chang, the head of Qianji Sect, the first sect in Jijun,..."

"Nice to meet you!"

Ding Zongshou used to be a casual cultivator, but the Ding family moved here from Jijun. However, it was eighty years ago when the Ding family moved from Jijun to Fuyang Road in Yanzhou.

At that time, Ding Zongshou was just a casual Qi practitioner, so naturally he was of no importance and no one knew him. However, Ding Zongshou had already heard about Qianji Sect.

After another round of greetings, Shang Jiuling and Zhu Fengbi met the people next to Chang Xiangsong again.

The Chonghua Sect and the Qianji Sect had no enmity, and they both had some opinions about the Tianyun Sect and the Huaxi Sword Sect in power, so they were barely on the same page.

There are about thirty people from the Qianji Sect participating in the Taoist meeting, but only about ten people actually participate in the Taoist competition, which is similar to that of the Chonghua sect.

This time Qianji Sect has two people from Zifu. In addition to Chang Xiangsong, there is also his junior brother Wu Huihai, who is also a true king of Zifu.

Judging from its appearance and energy, it should be that he has just entered the Zifu, and is at the level of the first stage of Zifu's Essence.

While several members of the Zifu were exchanging greetings, Chen Huaisheng's eyes fell on these foundation-building monks.

This time's Shangyuan Taoist meeting is still quite important to the sect of Da Zhao.

In addition to the selection of various sects and aristocratic families, which involves the future resource arrangements of these sects and aristocratic families, rankings such as the Hidden Dragon and Tengfeng Ranking, the Dragon and Tiger Qingyun Ranking, and the Dao Fengyun Ranking all have a great boosting effect on an individual's reputation.

In particular, the latter two are directly related to the influence of the incense willpower after foundation building, and no one can ignore it.

Even Chen Huaisheng is reluctant to participate in the competition, but when it comes to the power of incense and wish, he has already established the foundation, so he also wants to see the impact of the power of incense on himself, so he also wants to compete for the Dragon Tiger Qingyun Ranking. A fight.

There are about six or seven Qianji Sect foundation-building monks in this group, and the remaining ten or so are all Qi-training monks.

Among the five or six people, there are two who are at the high level of foundation building, the remaining five people are at the middle level of foundation building, and the remaining four are all at the early stage of foundation building.

It can be seen that there are very few female disciples in Qianji Sect. Among the twenty or so people, there are only three female cultivators, and they are all at the Qi level.

While several Zifu bosses were chatting with each other, Chen Huaisheng didn't know that he was also in the sight of the monks from Qianji Sect.

One can't hide his age from anyone, nor can he hide his spiritual level from others. However, Chen Huaisheng, who is in his twenties, has already established a foundation, which naturally attracts countless people's surprised looks.

Every sect has many disciples with amazing talents, but it is quite rare to establish a foundation at such a young age.

Along the way, people on both sides soon became familiar with each other.

From entering Bianliang Mansion to entering Bianjing City, there are still hundreds of miles to travel, but this road is full of spacious post roads, and you can walk against the wind, or use the Divine Walking Talisman to walk vigorously.

You can also take a special carriage, which is a carriage. A carriage can carry more than ten people. It is loose and light. Because it uses special spiritual materials and has some magic structures, it is quite suitable.

However, this kind of chariot can only be used to run special post roads and official roads, and it will not work once it goes out into the wild. Therefore, it is generally only seen on the official post roads between Tongdu and Dayi.

Yujia also requires some spiritual power to control, so this has become a dedicated occupation for many Taoist species.

In order to avoid attracting attention, both the Chonghua Sect and the Qianji Sect chose to use carriages to rush to Bianjing City.

It was also the first time for Chen Huaisheng to ride in a chariot.

In front is the dragon colt running and driving.

And this kind of car made with a very exquisite design structure seems to use spiritual materials for wind resistance and shock absorption, so the driver only needs to inject some spiritual power appropriately to make the entire car float lightly, and then use it. When the dragon colt is pulled, it can start running.

This is probably a ride-on tool in the world of cultivation.

This type of chauffeur is available in Tongdu Dayi and some ferry hubs, but Chen Huaisheng has never driven a foreign meat truck. This is the first time today.

There are also many female monks sent by the Chonghua sect to Bianjing. In addition to Fang Baoqi and Min Qingyu, there are ten other female monks. However, they are basically in the first stage of Qi training. Except for Bao Que and another seventh-level Qi training There is Gao Man, a female cultivator in her forties, Jing Yangwai, a fifth-level Qi practitioner in her thirties, and the others are all in the early stages of Qi training.

However, these disciples in the early stage of Qi training are very young, most of them are between ten and fifteen years old. At a glance, you can tell that they are disciples who have just started a few years ago, but their qualifications are very good. It is obvious that this trip is to gain experience and gain knowledge. Lord.

The situation of Qianji Sect is similar to that of Chonghua Sect.

Everyone participates in the competition with the intention of participating in the competition, and experiencing and opening their eyes is the first group. In this way, they will continue to promote the growth of their own sect disciples.

It can be seen from the situation of the disciples that the situation of the Chonghua Sect has indeed changed drastically from previous years.

The number and composition of disciples have also changed significantly.

It turned out that the Chonghua Sect had a shortcoming in terms of high-level Qi training disciples, and the number of young disciples who were really expected to hit the foundation building was very small. However, after the Lingyun Sect and the Ding family joined in, they immediately filled the gap.

In recent years, the quality and talent of the new disciples recruited from Hebei and Yinan have also greatly improved. It is not an exaggeration to say that the current Chonghua Sect is showing a prosperous scene.

However, the hidden worries brought about by the rapid expansion of strength have also begun to emerge. The factions within the sect and the shortage of resources have begun to trouble those in charge.

If these problems cannot be solved in time, the China-Chongqing faction may fall into new difficulties in the future.

Yujia arrived outside Bianjing City in the early days of Youchu.

After saying goodbye to everyone from the Qianji Sect, everyone from the Chonghua Sect entered the Taoist temple of the Chonghua Sect in Bianjing City.

Since last year, the Chonghua Sect has also begun to expand its annexes in Bianjing City. From annexes to official Taoist monasteries, it also means that the Chonghua Sect has taken an important step.

Looking at the spacious Taoist temple, which is more than enough to accommodate thirty to fifty people, the quiet environment, well-proportioned houses, and quite complete living facilities, I have to say that Guo Chongdao, the Taoist director, has done a good job.

But Chen Huaisheng knew that Guo Chongdao no longer wanted to be the head of the Taoist Academy in Bianjing City.

He is not too old, and he is also eager to attack the foundation.

In the cultivation sect, in the final analysis, the level of the spiritual realm is what matters. No matter how beautifully you perform your duties, if you want to have a voice in the sect in the future, if your spiritual level is not high enough, you can only stand aside.

Especially after seeing Cao Renben frequently attacking the foundation, Gou Yiwei actually succeeded in attacking the foundation again after restarting the shipwreck, which stimulated Guo Chongdao too much.

Now Chen Huaisheng, a new disciple who he had brought up with his own hands in the past, has actually established a foundation. How can this make Guo Chongdao feel embarrassed?

Of course, he also knew that Chen Huaisheng had performed well since he started. In the past few years, he had gone through a lot of ups and downs from practicing to traveling, which was why he was able to rise so quickly. He did not seek to shine like Chen Huaisheng, but he also longed to enter the foundation building field. to this inner circle of power.
