Outside the cave.
As Chen Shiyuan and Qin Guan fell into silence, the white mist surrounding the cave parted to reveal a passage. At the same time, a man's voice rang out.
"May I know which Fellow Daoist has arrived? Please forgive me for not being able to welcome you."
The corners of Chen Shiyuan's mouth curled up slightly. Without looking at Qin Guan, he strode into the passage.
Qin Guan didn't stay outside either, but followed him.
The two of them quickly arrived at the main hall of the cave. Shen Luo was already waiting there. There were three cups of spiritual tea on the table.
"May I know Fellow Daoist's name? The cave is simple and crude, so please do not blame us for not receiving you well. Please take a seat. "Shen Luo sized up Chen Shiyuan and made an inviting gesture.
"You must be Fellow Daoist Shen Luo. Master Shen Daoyou has already introduced you to me. You have cultivated to the mid-Macheng Stage in less than 200 years. You are truly a genius." Chen Shiyuan did not answer Shen Luo's question. Instead, he chuckled.
"Junior Brother Shen, this is Senior Chen Shiyuan from Little Mao Mountain," Qin Guan introduced.
"Little Mao Mountain!" Shen Luo's eyes flickered.
He had been admiring this sect for a long time.
"So, Fellow Daoist Chen is a cultivator from Little Mao Mountain. Pardon me. May I know why Fellow Daoist Chen has come to my Spring and Autumn Temple?" Shen Luo quickly calmed down and cupped his fists.
As a member of the Little Mao Mountain Exalted Sect, Chen Shiyuan had been traveling around and meeting with some of the branch sects. All of the branch sects treated him with reverence and respect. Shen Luo's attitude was so calm that it seemed like he didn't take it to heart.
Of course, Qin Guan's rejection also made Chen Shiyuan feel somewhat disgusted with the Spring and Autumn Temple.
"I was ordered by the sect to investigate the situation of some of the branch sects outside. A few days ago, I came to Deng Province and heard that the Spring and Autumn Temple had killed the Heavenly Yin Gate's cultivator. So, I came to take a look," Chen Shiyuan said calmly.
Shen Luo frowned when he heard that.
Had the news of Ghost General killing the Heavenly Yin Gate cultivators been exposed so quickly?
He looked at Qin Ming, and Qin Ming nodded. Shen Luo's face suddenly sank. At this moment, Gui Jiang's voice sounded in his ears:
"Master, it's my fault for causing you this trouble."
Shen Luo coldly snorted, and did not pay any attention to the Ghost General in the Qiankun Bag.
If he had been alone, killing a cultivator from a sect wouldn't have been a big deal. However, with the Temple of Spring and Autumn around, there were many things he had to consider.
"Although the Heavenly Yin Gate is powerful, a branch of our Little Maoshan Mountain is not so easily bullied." Chen Shiyuan chuckled when he saw the changes in Shen Luo and Qin Guan's expressions.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, are you here to bring the Temple of Spring and Autumn back to Little Mao Mountain?" Shen Luo asked.
He knew that the Temple of Spring and Autumn had always wanted to return to Little Mao Mountain. If they could really do it, not only would they be able to fulfill the wishes of the Temple of Spring and Autumn's ancestors, but they would also be able to borrow the power of Little Mao Mountain to protect Qin Guan and the others.
"It's not difficult to bring the Temple of Spring and Autumn back to Little Mao Mountain. However, since the Heavenly Yin Gate has their eyes on it, it won't be easy to get the Sect Master of Little Mao Mountain to agree to protect it." Chen Shiyuan took a sip of spiritual tea and spoke with deep meaning.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, please speak your mind." How could Shen Luo not understand what Chen Shiyuan meant? He cupped his hands and said.
"I don't dare to speak of my request, but Little Mao Mountain has a matter to deal with recently. Unfortunately, it's not convenient for everyone in the sect. If Shen Daoyou can help, it'll be easy for Little Mao Mountain to restore the Temple of Spring and Autumn and protect them from the threat of the Heavenly Yin Gate." Chen Shiyuan put down his teacup and smiled.
Qin Guan wanted to say something, but hesitated.
Shen Luo saw Qin Guan's expression and his expression changed. He spoke to Chen Shiyuan seriously.
"What's the matter? If I am able to help, I will definitely not refuse. "
"Shen Daoyou, have you heard of the Three Realms Martial Gathering that's about to be held in Chang 'an City?" Chen Shiyuan asked.
"I've heard of it, but I don't know much about it. Please enlighten me, Fellow Daoist Chen." Shen Luo was slightly surprised.
"The Martial Meet of the Three Dimensions is a competition jointly held by the numerous sects of the three dimensions. Every sect and sect will send out representatives to participate, and it's extremely grand. In the end, not only will the winner obtain generous rewards, the sect that the winner belongs to obtain the joint support of the three dimensions. Even if it's a small sect, it's capable of leaping to become a great sect of the three dimensions." Chen Shiyuan spoke unhurriedly.
"The final reward is so generous!" Shen Luo was surprised.
Not to mention the prizes obtained by the victors, the sects of the victors would receive the support of the Three Realms. That was no small matter.
"After the demonic tribulation, many sects suffered heavy losses. The martial gathering is held to revitalize the three realms as soon as possible and recover from the demonic tribulation," Chen Shiyuan explained.
"So that's how it is." Shen Luo nodded.
"Although the martial gathering rewards are generous, the process of the Three Realms Martial Gathering is also quite tragic. The participants will not only determine victory or defeat in the martial gathering, but also life and death. It's very different from ordinary competitions," Chen Shiyuan said.
"Not only will it determine victory or defeat, but it will also determine life and death!" Shen Luo frowned.
This is nothing. Compared to the rewards of the Martial Competition, the lives of one or two people are insignificant. Moreover, some sects that have grudges against each other can take advantage of this opportunity to resolve it. If there is a grudge, then there is a grudge. If there is a grudge, then there is a grudge. This can also be considered a pioneering undertaking. "Chen Shiyuan laughed.
Shen Luo didn't say anything and stood silently to the side.
"During the martial gathering, the people of the three realms can watch the entire process through the Sky Hanging Mirror made by Tianji City. It can be considered a lively event," Chen Shiyuan continued to say with a smile as if he didn't see Shen Luo's expression.
"Fellow Chen, are you looking for me to represent Little Mao Mountain and participate in the martial gathering of the three realms?" Shen Luo asked.
"That's right. Shen Daoyou, are you willing?" Chen Shiyuan nodded and looked at Shen Luo eagerly.
Shen Luo's face was solemn and he didn't say anything in his heart.
According to his original intention, he definitely didn't want to participate in such a monkey-like martial gathering. However, if he didn't participate, not only would the Temple of Spring and Autumn have no hope of becoming a Righteous Disciple, but he would also be threatened by the Tianyin Gate.
If he stayed in the Temple of Spring and Autumn, it would be fine. However, if he left Qinghua Mountain in the future, what would happen to the Temple of Spring and Autumn?
Shen Luo couldn't help but look at Qin Guan when he thought of this.
"Junior Brother Shen, the martial gathering concerns your life. You don't have to consider the Temple of Spring and Autumn," Qin Guan said seriously.
Shen Luo heard this and the corners of his mouth twitched. He stood up and walked to the entrance of the cave residence and looked outside.
The buildings of the Temple of Spring and Autumn could be faintly seen. With the power of his ears and eyes, he could also hear the lively scene in the front mountain.
The Temple of Spring and Autumn had been silent for a hundred years and it had finally begun to prosper again. If it continued to decline, it was afraid that it would never be able to rise again.
Now that the demon disaster had been eliminated, he had been entrusted with the task of reviving the sect by his Martial Granduncle. Naturally, he had to put it into action.
