Zhang Yan held the letter in his hand and looked at it carefully. He could not help but think.
This was a letter sent by Wei Zihong half a day ago. It said that Bu Tian Pavilion wanted to invite all the sects to sign a contract to protect this spiritual opportunity.
The source of the news was from a disciple of Li Mountain Sect.
It was not difficult for him to see that Spiritual Master Yuling deliberately leaked it to him.
The reason why he did not directly pass it on was because he did not want it to be written so that others would not be able to use it against him. This founding master also hinted that in order to return the favor to Bu Tian Pavilion, he would not stand on the side of Qincang School this time.
Zhang Yan did not care about this. Qincang School and Li Mountain Sect had not really formed an alliance. Naturally, they could not count on each other to work for them.
Once Spiritual Master Yuling brought the message, Qincang School had to accept this favor no matter what. No matter what the outcome of this discussion was, she would not offend either side. This was the survival wisdom of these small sects. There was no need to be too calculative.
He looked at the letter again. As the Palace Lord of Du Zhen, he knew a thing or two about protecting spiritual opportunity.
After Dong Hua and the other four continents were pacified, the original cultivators of the West Continent were also greatly weakened. There were only a few powerful cultivators left. In terms of strength, they could not compare to the cultivators from beyond the heavens. The position of host and guest had already been reversed. Therefore, when the territories were divided, they were also in a weak position.
Just like the four major sects of Dong Hua Continent. None of the founding masters were originally natives of the West Continent. Instead, they occupied a large area of spiritual land.
Although the cultivators of the West Continent knew that the situation was irreversible, they were not willing to give up. This proposal came into being under such circumstances. On the surface, it was to stand together and not to change the spiritual opportunity. In reality, it was used to restrict the sects established by the cultivators from beyond the heavens.
At that time, the war was over. In order not to start another war, the cultivators from beyond the heavens did not want to push too far, so they took a step back. They agreed to this proposal.
At first, Dong Hua was full of spiritual opportunity. All the sects followed the agreement, and Qincang School was no exception. However, when the former sect master Qin Qinggang came, the sect was flourishing. Twelve Celestial Abode Masters came out one after another and ignored Bu Tian Pavilion's urging.
However, after deciding on the strategy to pacify the Northern Underworld Continent, they had no choice but to compromise. This time, the tables were turned, and the Heaven Mending Pavilion saw it as a great victory.
Zhang Yan thought about it. Ever since Sect Master Qin took over, he did not sign the agreement. This situation was similar to last time. It was not hard to tell that Heaven Bu Tian Pavilion wanted to cooperate with the other sects.
After that Sect, Sect master, he said, "This matter is not a small.
With a flick of his sleeve, he opened the formation door and exited the Duzhen Hall, heading straight for the Upper Extreme Hall. After being informed, he entered the hall and met with the Sect Leader. "I" to Sect and then he.
"Master" in "and" I "was" I said. " It must have been difficult for them to endure until now. "He instructed the boy below him," Go and summon Hall Master Yun Tian and Hall Master Daytime Sky. "
"I" Dao "I" the boy ""
Not long after the two of them sat in the hall, Qi Yuntian and Huo Xuan entered the hall one after another. They came up to greet the Sect Leader and Zhang Yan before sitting down.
Sect Master Qin ordered the letter to be passed down. After the two read it, their expressions turned cold. In terms of the number of Celestial Abode Masters. Qincang was the leader, so this time, Bu Tian Pavilion was the spearhead. Without a doubt, it was directed at them.
Sect Master Qin asked Huo Xuan, "What does Palace Master Bai Kong think?"
Huo Xuan said decisively, "We can't accept this! However. There is a concern. "
Sect Master Qin said, "What is it?"
Huo Xuan said in a low voice, "Our Qincang has thirteen Celestial Abode Masters. We are already very powerful. If we reject this proposal, it will be telling the other sects that we want to use our strength to resolve the calamity. They will definitely make a move."
If they don't sign the contract this time, they will still do what they want. Although the other sects might not know about it, it was not difficult to see that Qincang School was accumulating strength for the calamity. So when they go back, whether it was for self-protection or other purposes, they would definitely prepare for the calamity.
Zhang Yan smiled, "Of course, but the sects are controlled by the Spirit Cave. If they promote the younger generation, it would be a risky move. They might not dare to do it."
Qi Yuntian and Huo Xuan nodded.
Due to the fact that the Devil's Ordeal had yet to pass, it was not easy for the sects to maintain the Spirit Cave. If they had one more disciple to build a cave, they would need to provide more spiritual vigor. They might not be able to maintain it before the Human's Ordeal. Moreover, those who were in the cave would benefit from it. Most of them would rather sit still than take the risk.
Qi Yuntian said, "This is not entirely a bad thing." He bowed to the headmaster and said, "I think we can take this opportunity to see who is on my side, and who is the enemy of Qincang!"
At the same time, in the Du Guang Mountain of Taihao School, Zhenren Shi Huang Yugong welcomed him into the cave. After he sat down, he asked, "Brother, have you met Zhenren Bu from Bu Tian Pavilion?"
Huang Yu Gong chuckled and said, "I guessed you invited me here for this matter."
Zhenren Shi said in a deep voice, "Qincang School does not care about the calamity and the lack of spiritual opportunity. They only want to help their disciples. If this goes on, how can the sects survive? Since we have a righteous cause, I, Taihao, will go to help. What does your school think? "
Huang Yu Gong thought to himself, "Just as the Sect Leader said, it would be best if I can force the Yue Cang Sect to lower their heads. If I can't, it won't hurt me at all. If the Yue Cang Sect wants to cause trouble, they should go to the Jade Firmament Sect and the Dark Spring Sect."
He smiled and said, "Our sects have always advanced and retreated together. Since your school has agreed, why don't we, Nan Hua, join in the fun."
In Huanzhen Temple, Zhenren Pang stood in front of a cave. He did not say a word, as if he was thinking about something.
After a long time, a disciple came and said with respect, "Zhenren Pang, the headmaster invites you in."
Daoist Master Pang snapped out of his daze, straightened his robes, and walked into the cave abode. After walking a hundred steps, he arrived at the Rainbow Bridge. Looking down, he saw a series of copper pillars connected to a chain, supporting a banner that was at least 300 meters wide.
Ninety percent of the flag was the color of colored glaze, and the remaining ten percent was a circle of black edges that looked like water stains. On it, there were countless ferocious demons struggling and trying to escape. Whenever they tried to escape, there would be a flash of lightning, and they would cry out in pain and have to return to their original position.
This big flag was left behind by Zhenren Ru Huang, and it had been placed here for more than two thousand years. The flag itself was made of precious materials. After Huanzhen Temple obtained this item, they wanted to use the Thunder Technique to wash away the demonic Qi on it, and then refine another demon-subduing treasure.
She took a few glances, and compared to the last time, the black Qi had shed a little more. It seemed that in less than a hundred years, it could be truly refined.
After crossing the nine rainbow bridges, he arrived before a crystal jade platform. There were mirrors all around him, and there were at least a thousand of them, illuminating the entire place. As the multicolored lights flashed back and forth, there were even lightning leaping within them. When the sound of it merged into one, it was distant and oppressive, as if it came from beyond the nine heavens.
On the platform, there was a young Daoist with a weak face. He only had two sword-like eyebrows, and his eyes were shining. He sat upright, and his back was as straight as an iron ruler. He was the headmaster of Huanzhen Temple, Pu Xuansheng.
Zhenren Pang walked forward and bowed, "I pay my respects to the headmaster."
Headmaster Pu said, "I am at the critical moment of refining a treasure. If there is nothing important, I don't think junior sister would disturb me. I wonder what happened outside?"
Zhenren Pang said, "Yesterday, the elder of Bu Tian Pavilion, Bu Jingsu, came to our sect, and invited me to Piji Palace next month to sign the agreement to guard the coffin."
Headmaster Pu nodded, "I see."
He pondered for a moment, and said, "This time, Bu Tian Pavilion only wants to stop Qincang's power. If we follow Bu Tian Pavilion's intention, we will definitely offend Qincang School. If we don't, we will have to stand with Qincang School. I see that junior sister is hesitating, is it because you can't decide which side to go with?"
Zhenren Pang bowed again, and said, "I can't hide it from the headmaster. This matter concerns the survival of the sect, and I don't dare to make a decision alone."
Headmaster Pu said, "I haven't been involved in secular affairs for a long time, so my decision may not be better than yours. However, the reason I choose Qincang is not because of anything else, but because only Qincang School dares to stand up and take responsibility when the Sky Demon is wreaking havoc!"
Hearing this, Zhenren Pang's expression changed. She took a deep breath and was about to speak, but Headmaster Pu stood up and said, "Junior sister, please leave. From now on, all the secular affairs of the sect will be decided by you. There is no need to ask me anymore."
After saying that, the crystal platform in front of her disappeared under the illumination of thousands of lights.
Half a month later, Bu Jingsu came to the mountain gate of Ping Du Sect. Looking into the distance, he saw three huge mountains that looked like the feet of an elephant, supporting a city made of snow and jade. This place was called the White Cloud Platform, and it was where the main altar of Ping Du Sect was located.
Ping Du Sect was different from other sects. Because of the Hidden Dharma Pagoda, the disciples did not need to sit and cultivate. They only needed to invite the Dharma spirit to enter their body, and after refining it, their combat ability would not be weaker than their peers. Therefore, the sect only looked at fate when accepting disciples, and talent and background were secondary. It was also because of this that it had the most disciples among the 16 sects, with millions of people.
Most of these disciples were from the surrounding countries, so even the nobles and nobles worshiped the mysterious Dharma spirits. For thousands of years, they had constantly built temples and temples. At a glance, there were palaces, carriages, and people at the foot of the mountain. Since the Devil's Tribulation, such a scene was rarely seen in Donghua Continent.
Bu Jingsu turned a blind eye to this and floated to the cloud platform. He called out a few times, but after waiting for a long time, no one came out.
After calling a few more times, the mountain gate formation opened, and a handsome Daoist came out. It was Ping Du Sect's Dongtian Zhenren, Wu Weiyi. His expression was cold, and he bowed and said, "Greetings, Zhenren Bu. Why do you have the time to come to my cloud platform?"
Bu Jingsu returned the bow and said, "My sect has recently felt that the spiritual opportunity has changed, and there are signs of instability. According to my calculations, there is a sect that disregarded the big picture and arbitrarily seized the spiritual opportunity for its own benefit. In order to stop the situation, I would like to invite my fellow Daoists to Piji Palace to sign the Spiritual Golden Letter."
Wu Weiyi said, "I see. When will it be set?"
Bu Jingsu said, "On the first of next month."
Wu Weiyi was expressionless. He cupped his hands and said, "I will be there."
Bu Jingsu also returned the greeting, and after exchanging a few words, he bid farewell and left.
When he reached the middle of the sky, he shook his head. Ping Du Sect did not even bother to invite him in, and it was obvious that they had decided to stand on the side of Qincang School. However, considering the relationship between the two sects, it was not surprising. He looked at the sky. He had visited all the Xuanmen sects, and it was time to go to the Nether Spring Sect.
