That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 1249

When the direction of the Northwest War gradually became clear, the eyes of countless monks in the world no longer focused on the remote place in the Northwest, but gradually turned to the prosperous Jiangnan.

In the war between monks, the south of the Yangtze River is the main battlefield. The Daomen’s Demon Suppressing Palace was wiped out here, and the Ghost King’s Palace was also smashed into the sand here. There are enough earth immortal monks who can’t count with two hands fall in the south of the Yangtze River. , Counting forward, Xiao Xuan, Emperor Taizong of the Great Qi Dynasty, also died of serious injuries in the Jiangdu Palace.

Of course, the battle between these monks cannot avoid two people, one is Xu Beiyou, the suzerain of the Sword Sect, and the other is Qiu Ye, the Taoist master.

The two are listed as one of the three saints in the Tianji list, and they are the top people in the world. The two sects they represent behind them are almost the top sects in the world today.

This is by no means an exaggeration, Xu Beiyou alone is half of Jianzong, as long as Xu Beiyou is alive, Jianzong will be one of the most powerful sects in the world, not to mention that the current Jianzong is no longer the 20th year of Taiping The sword sect, the three elders returned to their thrones, dominated Jiangdu, and rebuilt the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall. There are two earth immortals in the [-]th floor of the gate, and they are all sword immortals with high combat power. In terms of martial arts, only Daomen can compete with Jianzong.

And the entanglement between these two major sects has run through the more than a hundred years from the Zhengzheng Dynasty in the previous dynasty to the Taiping period in the current dynasty. Unrelated relationship.

Now that the war in Jiangnan has come to an end, another battle between Jianzong and Daomen has gradually subsided. This time it ended with a big defeat for Daomen. Form a dominance.

Just when everyone thought that Jianzong was going to take root in the south of the Yangtze River, news suddenly spread from Jiangdu City that the master of Jianzong, who can be called the master of Jianzong's revival, decided to lead Jianzong to return to the 36 islands in the East China Sea.

This news is not insignificant, and countless monks were shocked. After all, in the eyes of many people, Jianzong has the Daqi court as his support. It can be seen that leaving Jiangnan is the real wisdom.

There is an old saying that goes well, when the birds are gone, the good bows are hidden, the cunning rabbits are dead, and the lackeys are cooked.

Back then, the Daoist sect supported Xiao Yu to achieve success and establish the country of Great Qi. The Taoist sect's head teacher, Qiu Ye, and Daqi's great ancestor Gao Emperor Xiao Yu were close friends, but in the end, what happened?It's not that they both turned against each other, from friends back then to enemies today.

Jianzong is now close to the Daqi court, but if Xu Beiyou and Xiao Zhinan pass away one after another, will the descendants of Jianzong and the future Emperor of Daqi still live in harmony?

The lessons learned by the Daoist sect are not far away, and Jianzong must take it as a warning, and never go on the back road of the Daoist sect.

Another point is that since ancient times, the world of Central Plains has never been a pure land outside the world. If the sect falls here, not to mention the temptations of the world of mortals, but the world is in chaos between dynasties, the sect in it will be It is impossible to be detached from the outside world. If it is involved in this kind of world dispute, what about the Jianzong who was at its peak in the past?It's not that people die and sects die!The Wei Wang Rebellion not long ago can be regarded as an example.

From this point of view, the 36 islands located overseas are an excellent place. Even if the world is in chaos, separated by the East China Sea, Jianzong in it can watch the fire from the other side and stay out of it.

So after all, it is still the same sentence, Jianzong must learn from it, not only from Taoism, but also from past Jianzong.Jiangdu can be used as a temporary shelter when you are down and out, but it is not suitable as a place to establish a foundation for eternal life, so it is imperative for Jianzong to return to 36 Islands.

If it was just Jianzong's return to Island 36, it wouldn't be a big deal, but the news that followed was a bit shocking.It is said that the Jianzong sect mainly re-established the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall on the Lianhua Peak of Biyou Island, and then held the suzerain's ascension ceremony in the Jianqi Lingkong Hall. At that time, he would invite famous monks from all over the world to go and become the number one in the world. event.

Except for some Yamano Zexiu, some decent disciples from famous schools have heard news from their elders one after another. It is said that the elders in the sect will attend this grand event of the Sword Sect.Counting carefully, there are Buddhist abbot Qiuyue Zen Master, Confucian masters Liu Zhengqing, Qian Muzhai, and the most promising Confucian master Xie Suqing, the master of Molun Temple Qiusi Living Buddha, and the master of Tianji Pavilion. Sapphire, Wang Sheng made by the great craftsman, Tang Shengyue, the leader of the White Lotus Sect, Zhao Qing, the great master of martial arts, Zhang Baisui, Mr. Pingan, and Murong Xuanyin, the previous leader of Xuanjiao. Due to the approaching date, he may not go there, but Song Qingying, the next Xuanjiao leader appointed by his old man, will go with his wife Chi Qingnu.

In addition, there is also the imperial court. It may be difficult for the left governors who are leading the army to attend the congratulations in person because of military affairs, but as the princess Xu Zongzhu's married wife, Her Royal Highness is very helpful. Possibly in person.

Not to mention the masters of Jianzong itself, Jianxian Bingchen, Zhang Xueyao, and Qin Mumian.

What kind of grand event is it that so many experts gather together?
And because those who are able to go to Biyou Island to congratulate gifts must at least have the realm of ghosts and immortals, so those who have already done good things have thought of a name for this upcoming event on Biyou Island, and it is called "Ten Thousand Immortals Come to Dynasty".

From the side, this is also the reason why Jianzong is different from the past. If it is replaced by the declining Jianzong in the past, how can there be today's "Ten Thousand Immortals Come to Dynasty"?
On the other hand, the Taoist sect that once suppressed Jianzong so much that he couldn't hold his head up, the Taoist sect that once ruled the world, is no longer prosperous now, and the court is deserted.

Taoist sect is the most powerful sect in the whole world. Among the highest-ranking masters of the Chen family, Zichen and Tianchen who cultivated to the mysterious level soared one after another, and Wuchen sat and melted. Defeated at the hands of Xu Beiyou, Qingchen, Du Mingshi, Mingchen, Zhongli Anning, Xiao Shen and others all died. In the end, Bingchen directly defected from Taoism and joined Jianzong.

Then came the next generation of Ye Zi, Chen Ye disappeared, Qingye swayed from side to side, Fu Zhongtian, Fengdu Emperor Chen Huanzhi, Ksitigarbha King, Central Ghost Emperor, Yama King, Southern Ghost Emperor, Zhuanlun King and others died one after another. The others, like Du Haichan, are not good enough, and now there is only one autumn leaf left.

As for the descendants of the Yunzi generation, aside from the promising but immature Qi Xianyun, they are nothing more than Tianyun, Wuyunsou, and Baiyunzi. Now that Wuyunshou is dead, Tianyun and Baiyunzi have become incompatible. At this time, the two are fighting each other, and they are too busy to take care of themselves.

No matter how you look at it, the Taoist sect that was once at its peak has now shown signs of prosperity and decline.

To put it bluntly, on Jianzong's side, Xu Beiyou alone is half of Jianzong, but how good is Taoism?It is just a single tree supported by autumn leaves. If this continues, it is not impossible to become a lonely tree.
