The Devil Marks in Old Qingfeng City had always been the biggest obstacle to the Taiqing Pavilion reclaiming its homeland. Originally, these Devil Marks would extend a few miles every hundred years. For this reason, the sect had no choice but to send elite disciples to clear out the Devil Marks in some of the main strongholds. At the same time, the overflowing areas were strictly controlled.
However, recently, the cultivators who went in kept spreading the news that the Devil Marks that originally covered the sky seemed to be shrinking every day. And the shrinking area seemed to be unusually obvious. The great corridor that was originally set as the outer city walls by the Taiqing Pavilion now had almost no trace of the Devil Marks left. As for the Devil Marks in the middle of the old city, they were also dissipating day by day.
Only the area within fifty miles of the City Lord's Mansion, which originally belonged to the defense of the inner city, still had obvious fiendish auras. But, a net-like sealing formation had appeared in the area, restricting all the fiendish auras within.
As a result, the Taiqing Pavilion sect received the notice and directly sent the sect's Body Integration cultivators to inspect. After the inspection, the conclusion was that the Devil Sealing Array of Heavenly Fire, which was set up by the Great Sage Wu Ye, had been activated again. As a result, the original source of the Devil Qi was firmly restricted.
As for the reason why it was activated, no one knew. At the same time, a rumor began to spread among the rogue cultivators. There were rumors that the middle and outer areas of the old city were now habitable. Although the Devil Slaying War had been fought for eight thousand years, there were still many treasures left behind by the ancestors.
This time, it could be said that a hornet's nest had exploded. The rogue cultivators who were originally in Old Qingfeng City were like hungry wolves that smelled blood. The sudden large number of rogue cultivators directly put a huge pressure on the cultivators guarding the Taiqing Pavilion.
The old city was so big, and the original protective boundary had shrunk to fifty miles around the inner city. Suddenly, there was a lot of undefended open space. The people of the Department of Internal Affairs of the Taiqing Pavilion could not take care of the guards. This directly allowed some rogue cultivators to make a fortune.
As for the demonic mutated beasts, they were the first to bear the brunt of their prey. There were even some potential demonic cultivators who took advantage of this opportunity to kill the mutated beasts and collect their demonic cores.
This time, they caused even more trouble. In less than three days, the news had spread throughout the entire spiritual realm. Itinerant cultivators from the other two cities rushed over after hearing the news, so much so that the Sky-Patrolling Battleship exploded. As for those who couldn't buy tickets, they had to fly here on their own. From the looks of it, they all wanted a piece of the pie.
The Taiqing Pavilion had also issued several decrees. Due to the changes in Old Clear Wind City, they urgently needed a large amount of manpower to help eliminate the demonic mutated beasts. Therefore, there were only three rules for the rogue cultivators.
The Heavenly Fire Array in the inner city does not allow anyone to enter without reason. The sect has sent four Severed Soul Stage disciples to guard the four gates of the inner city.
No one was allowed to enter the original sect's Hidden Scripture Tower, Temple of Taming Beasts, Spiritual Plant Garden, Four Great Secret Realms, and other places in the central circle. Anyone who violated the rules would be killed without question.
Aside from these areas, the remaining areas could be freely entered and exited. People could use the demonic beasts they killed to exchange for merit points in New Breeze City.
In addition, the Taiqing Pavilion had also mobilized. The 500 inner disciples had more or less received the transfer order. Except for those who were cultivating in seclusion, the rest needed to report to Old Clear Wind City.
After reading the sect order in his hand, Yi Tian, who was sitting cross-legged in the cave house, curled his lips and threw Fu Zhao on the ground. Then he took out the communication jade charm and sent a message to Zhou Buer and the others, "Deputy Director Hua and I are cultivating in seclusion at the moment. I believe we won't come out for 20 or 30 years. You decide to send people to report to Old Clear Wind City. All the merit points will be counted on your own. But don't neglect the planting mission of the Spiritual Plant Garden. "After giving the order, he activated the communication jade charm in his hand and sent it out.
To put it bluntly, he was not interested in the situation in Old Clear Wind City at all. If he hadn't forcibly activated the array set by Ancestral Master Wu Ye at that time, these people wouldn't have the chance to get involved.
But this was also good. The more chaotic the outside world was, the less people would pay attention to him. This time, after seeing the afterimage of the battle between Ancestral Master Wu Ye and the Devil Saint Crown Prince Qiu Yu, he realized how big the gap was.
To put it bluntly, even if he cultivated to the Spirit Severing stage, he wouldn't be worth mentioning in their eyes. Only when he reached the Body Fusion stage would he attract their attention.
But he remembered seeing Ji Xuanyuan visit at that time, but he didn't go in. And he must have seen how Ancestral Master Wu Ye split into two. He just didn't know how shocked this Senior Martial Brother was at that time.
Through this exploration, he was the one who benefited the most. Just obtaining the 'Fortune Rivalling Heaven' talisman brush was already a great opportunity. After returning, he carefully checked the records of the Lifire Palace. It was recorded that this talisman brush was originally the treasure of the Lifire Palace's Artifact Hall.
It was originally an exclusive spiritual weapon that was passed down to the disciples of the Dao of Talismans. During the Demon Extermination War, Ancestral Master Wu Ye took it and kept it by his side. Unexpectedly, he didn't bring it out of Old Clear Wind City in the end.
As for the mark on the talisman brush, now that it was him, he naturally wouldn't return it easily. It was just that his attainments in talismans were not as good as his attainments in refining weapons. In his heart, he thought about finding an opportunity to exchange for the talisman technique from Qing Lianyun.
After coming out this time, in order to keep it under wraps, he specially told Hua Yulin. The content was also rather vague, omitting most of the things that happened in Old Clear Wind City. In the end, he repeatedly told him not to go out casually and to cultivate in seclusion in his cave. Even if there was a message from the sect, Fu Zhao shouldn't agree to it easily.
Hua Yulin had been with him for a long time and naturally knew that there was a hidden meaning in his words. He immediately said that he would act according to the circumstances. After the incident in Old Clear Wind City, his heart was as clear as snow. In a few days, he went to the sect to report that he needed to cultivate in seclusion.
As for Yi Tian and Hua Yuxin, they very tacitly announced that they were going into seclusion after returning to their cave abodes. All the big and small matters in the spiritual herb garden were handed over to Zhou Buer and the others to deal with. They were only allowed to come forward to report if they encountered an exceptionally difficult matter. It was as if they didn't care about it at all.
As for Cui Fuling's side, there was even less to worry about. With her status, if the sect wanted to assign tasks to her, it would only be the FenShen Stage Senior Brothers or Body Integration Stage Seniors. But even if there was a problem, the first thing they would do would be to look for Qing Lianyun. It would never be the turn of a servant girl.
Thus, when the outside world was in an uproar because of the incident in Old Clear Wind City, Yi Tian ushered in a rare period of peace and could concentrate on cultivating.
After witnessing the situation where even Ancestor Wu Ye was hit, Yi Tian had a deep fear of the Buddhist Sect's Good and Evil Zen. He didn't expect that even a Mahayana Stage cultivator would be hit. If he encountered it in the future, wouldn't he be at the mercy of others?
He didn't want to be divided into black and white because of this, but he heard Ao Li mention that this cultivation method was the Thunder Light Zen Temple's secret technique. Right now, he just happened to have the Great Sun Scripture in his hands. If he comprehended it thoroughly, he might be able to find a trace of Zen enlightenment.
