Ying Chong's plan this time seemed simple on the surface, but in order to achieve this, he had spent a lot of effort and used a lot of arrangements.
There was also a crucial point that could not be ignored, and that was the need to reconcile the internal and external.
Needless to say, it was to fight against Tianxia and regain the inner layer. The reason why he said that there was also internal conflict was because Ying Chong knew that although the inner layer of Shangchen could not be said to be scattered, it could be said to be full of contradictions. The people's hearts were not united, and the higher the level, the more it was like this. Everyone was good at protecting their lives, and when they saw that the situation was not right, they would retreat faster than the other.
He was powerless to change this, and sometimes he even felt that it was more difficult to deal with the internal than the external.
Therefore, this time, his plan was not to fight Tianxia to the death, but to occupy Yuandu Xuantu and rely on the artifact to confront Tianxia. This way, he would have a stronghold in the inner layer.
Because it was not necessary for the lower level cultivators to fight Tianxia to the death, this was the only way for everyone to accept.
Ren Yinping was taken down by Tianxia because he was the only one with true strength. Even if he had two fellow disciples as helpers, the effect was very limited.
However, when the entire Shangchen and other forces entered Yuandu Xuantu, and even had the Sect Leader's Talisman, then Tianxia would not be able to take them down no matter what.
Not to mention that Yuandu Xuantu could be moved at any time, and when Su Zhan reached the Virtual Realm, he would be able to control the Yuandu Main Hall and temporarily obtain all the authority of the artifact. At that time, he would be able to find a way to escape to the upper layer and open up a place to fight against Tianxia.
Now, there was only one thing left, and that was to find Xun Ji's disciple.
As for Xun Ji himself, there was no need to worry, because according to Ren Yinping, this Senior Martial Brother of his had never had the habit of teaching his disciple by his side, and because he had an important matter to attend to, the master and disciple would definitely be separated.
If Xun Ji had brought a disciple with him, then things would be more complicated. But now, he only needed to deal with a disciple whose cultivation was not high, so it was much easier.
At this moment, Su Zhan said, "In the place where the Yuandu Sect Leader's talisman is located, the Sect Leader's disciples only need to cast a spell and worship from afar, and they will be able to sense it. However, I have yet to worship the Founding Master, and I am in the outer layer, so I am unable to do this."
Ying Chong said with a natural expression, "It doesn't matter. Someone will send the specific location of this disciple later. We just have to wait."
Su Zhan said, "So Senior has already made arrangements. This junior is relieved."
He didn't know who that disciple was, but he thought that it should be one of his nominal fellow disciples. It was very likely that Ren Yinping had arranged this beforehand.
Kuizu Earth Star, Tanquan Earth Province, Northeast Desolate Region.
When Daoist Qi heard that the old Daoist wanted him to find a way to go up, he remained silent.
This was because he knew that his attempt to break through had actually failed.
At this moment, he had already transformed into a chaotic monster.
The reason why he was still conscious now was because there was a spell in that jade talisman that could help him stabilize his mind. Therefore, he still retained his original consciousness, and could still clearly recognize himself. He had not completely fallen into chaos.
However, he could feel that his consciousness was being eroded bit by bit. This kind of lucidity could only be maintained for a short period of time.
Although he used the method in the jade talisman to change his aura, making himself look like a cultivator who had achieved great success, if he went up, it was very likely that he would expose himself. Moreover, it would be disadvantageous for him to go down. Therefore, he absolutely could not go up.
After a while, he said, "I have just succeeded in my cultivation. I still need some time to settle down. It won't be too late to go up then."
The old Daoist couldn't make the decision, so he said, "Wait for me to report to the guard."
He called over a Xuanxiu disciple who was guarding this place. Just as he was about to use the Xuntian Dao Zhang to report to the guard, he saw a ray of light appear. A Daoist's shadow appeared on the ground and said to him, "No need, I already know."
When the old Daoist saw him, he hurriedly bowed and said respectfully, "Guard."
The Daoist's shadow nodded. He looked at Daoist Qi a few times and said, "Fellow Daoist's aura is obscure, and your Qi is fluctuating greatly. You indeed need to stabilize for a few days. It's not advisable to go up immediately."
Daoist Qi bowed and said, "Thank you for your understanding, Guard."
The Daoist said indifferently, "No need to thank me. Fellow Daoist, because your achievements are in the outer layer, this matter can be forgiven." Then, his tone became serious and he reminded, "However, before the record is recorded, I hope that fellow Daoist will not walk around casually."
Daoist Qi knew that Xuanting had a great restriction on Xuan Zun, so he replied, "Then I will cultivate for the next few days."
When the Daoist saw that he agreed, his expression relaxed and said, "That's good." After he finished speaking, his shadow disappeared.
On the other side, Ying Chong and the others waited on the desolate star for a few days. Then, a disciple handed a talisman letter to him. He said, "Seems like you found it."
The disciple said, "Master, should we send the order to make a move now?"
Ying Chong said calmly, "There's no rush. Wait a little longer."
Two days later, another talisman letter was sent over. After comparing the two, the locations reported by the two talismans were almost exactly the same.
Ying Chong still didn't plan to make a move immediately. He still waited there. This time, he waited for less than a day before the third talisman letter was delivered.
Su Zhan noticed that the first two talisman letters were similar in shape, but this one was different. His mind spun, and he immediately understood.
If he guessed correctly, the first two talismans were arranged by his master, Ren Yinping. However, there was no way to completely convince Ying Chong, so he arranged another spy. This third talisman letter was sent by the spy.
After Ying Chong read it, he said to the disciple standing beside him, "Send them a message. Tell them that they can make a move now. Also, send those 'things' over."
The disciple bowed respectfully and went to make the arrangements.
Daoist Qi had been sitting on the high platform for half a month. When he saw that it was getting harder and harder to delay, he suddenly felt something. He suddenly transformed and left, leaving only a black circle on the ground.
As a Monster of Chaos, he could go to places where other Monsters of Chaos had gone before without anyone noticing. However, this was actually because the Monsters of Chaos were closely connected to the Great Chaos. Hence, it was similar to how the Xuantian Court cultivators could use the upper levels to go to other realms.
However, because there were some subtle changes in Dao, normally speaking, the chaos monsters without intelligence would not use this method.
However, the more he used this method, the more he would be infected by the big chaos. He estimated that he could use this method at most two or three times before he would really lose his mind.
However, he also knew that he did not have so many chances. As long as he used this method once, he would expose his roots, so he did not care about this.
After reaching the sky, he reached out and received a talisman letter that he had been waiting for for a long time. Moreover, there was also a magic tool that came with it.
After reading the letter, he put away the artifact. A pitch-black mist flickered in his eyes, and his entire person disappeared from the sky.
In the Northern Sky, outside the Xu Su Earth Star, Daoist Zhan Kong was wandering around on a magic tool.
The position that Xuan Ting had given him was actually just for him to patrol around and make up for the deficiencies. There was no need for him to do anything. Even if he didn't do anything, it was fine.
However, after he received the title, he was also a person who took the mystical rations. Naturally, he could not be thick-skinned and do nothing.
Because it was very likely that Ren Yinping's actions last time caused Shangchen to come and suppress them, he had been wandering around the outer layer these days, hoping to contribute.
While he was wandering aimlessly, he suddenly saw an ordinary-looking Daoist appear in front of him. He was blocking his path, but fortunately, he was waiting for him there.
Daoist Zhan Kong looked at him a few times, but he became vigilant and asked, "Who are you?" He instinctively felt that this person's aura was a little strange. He did not seem like a normal cultivator.
Daoist Qi cupped his fist and said slowly, "My name is meaningless to me now. I've heard of your reputation and have come here to ask for your guidance."
Daoist Zhan Kong cast a few glances at him and said slowly, "Since you have come looking for me, I'm afraid you are not here to spar with me, but to stall me and do something else?"
Daoist Qi did not know what the higher-ups wanted to do, but he knew that his mission was to stall Zhan Kong. No matter what Zhan Kong thought, he did not care. He said directly, "Please advise me." As he said that, the black mist around his body expanded and rushed toward Zhan Kong.
On the desolate star, Ying Chong said, "This time, the focus is on Zhan Kong! Xun Ji and Zhan Kong are martial brothers. If Xun Ji leaves, it is very likely that he will ask Zhan Kong to take care of his disciple.
Although Zhan Kong is out there, he has a part of Yuandu Xuantu's authority. If there is an emergency, he may come back in time. That will be very disadvantageous to our plan. So, the first thing we need to do is to stall him! "
Su Zhan said, "That Qi Xiancheng is the opponent you chose to deal with Zhan Kong? But even if he succeeds, I am afraid he may not be able to defeat Zhan Kong. "
Daoist Ying Chong said, "This time, we don't want to kill Zhan Kong, but the chaos monster can stall Zhan Kong temporarily so that he will not disturb us."
The chaos monster was backed by the Great Chaos. It could not be killed by ordinary means. It was enough to stall Zhan Kong for a while.
So, it was not that Daoist Qi's cultivation was not good, but that the jade talisman Ying Chong gave him had a problem. It was to turn him into a chaos monster, so that he could fight against Zhan Kong.
Su Zhan said, "Senior, the person who went to kill Xun Ji's disciple should be taking action now, right?"
Daoist Ying Chong said, "Of course, the person I sent should be here now."
In the mountain range between the Upper Continent of Youyuan and Yujing, there was a spiritual pass. At the entrance of the spiritual pass, there was an inconspicuous Daoist temple. There were more than ten Daoist priests living here. Most of them were ordinary people who had a rough understanding of Qi cultivation. But there were restrictions outside the spiritual pass, so they could live a peaceful life of seclusion.
In a Daoist residence inside the spiritual pass, a chubby Daoist boy about eight or nine years old was holding a Daoist book and reading. His childish voice was loud and clear.
At this moment, on the ground outside the spiritual pass, a circle of scorched black suddenly appeared. A figure appeared on it. This person pushed up his glasses and walked forward expressionlessly. This person ignored those restrictions and walked straight into the Daoist temple. Not long after, he came to the Daoist residence where the Little Tong was. After looking at the Little Tong for a while, he reached out and took it.
