That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 763 Great Cultivator Climbs to the Twelfth Floor

After completely absorbing Tianwen Yijian, Xu Beiyou, who is already in the realm of the Nine Floors of the Earth Immortal, jumped three realms in a row, and stepped into the realm of the Twelfth Floor of the Earth Immortal. In other words, he is now a great monk and is qualified to wield the sword Zong, replace the young master of Jianzong among his many names with the suzerain of Jianzong.

In the world, there are three religions, nine streams, and hundreds of schools. Let alone the hundreds of schools, the sects of the nine streams have many unwritten rules, especially the rules of the suzerain, which is the most important.Because the head of a sect is the face of the sect, in addition to prestige and virtue, he also needs to have a high enough cultivation level. For the sects ranked among the top nine, the head of a sect must at least have the realm of the twelfth floor of the earth immortal Cultivation.

The former Jianzong naturally did not have such concerns. Almost every Jianzong suzerain is a figure who is unmatched in the world. Even if the Jianzong is overthrown, the successor Suzerain Gongsun Zhongmou is still the top figure on the [-]th Floor of the Earth Immortal.It's just that in Xu Beiyou's generation, Gongsun Zhongmou left too suddenly. At that time, Xu Beiyou hadn't reached the realm of the twelfth floor of the earth immortal, so the position of suzerain had to be suspended temporarily, even though all the power of Jianzong had been handed over to Xu Beiyou. In name, he is still the young master of Jianzong instead of the suzerain.

However, many sects don't have too many requirements for the first disciple. There is a saying that "the suzerain depends on the cultivation level, and the first disciple pays attention to the bones". Because of this, there are many rumors in the world that the sect's head teacher Qiu Ye is going to banish the immortal Dacai Qi Xianyun was established as the first disciple.

As for the "Three Religions" on the next level, the suzerain's requirements are even more stringent, and they must have the realm of the eighteenth floor of the earth fairy. The same is true for the Confucianism Sect. The four great gentlemen are expected to be the leaders of the Confucianism Sect, but the prerequisite is to set foot on the eighteenth floor of the Earth Immortal.

If the successor appointed by the previous suzerain fails to reach the realm of the [-]th Floor of the Earth Immortal within a short period of time, most likely he will appoint a "Minister Gu Ming". The cultivation level is not enough to be the head teacher, that's why the main peak master Tianchen has the power to act as the head teacher, so now many people in the Taoist sect are guessing that if the real head teacher really wants to make Qi Xianyun the head disciple, then It is likely that the matter of the main peak master of the year will be repeated. Chen Ye, who was born in the Tianquan peak lineage, will most likely be promoted to the peak master of Tianquan peak, and then assume the post of chief peak master.

Of course, Xu Beiyou's top priority now is how to leave this place. After all, only by leaving this place can Xu Beiyou talk about his ascension to the Sword Sect Master. Regardless of the realm of the Eighteenth Floor of Immortals, after all, it will end up with a pile of dry bones outside.

Xu Beiyou had just stepped into the realm of the twelfth floor of the Earth Immortal, and he was not in a hurry to absorb the special return, lest he would be too greedy to eat and make his own realm unstable.Holding Shugui in his hand, he looked at this quiet study room and felt a little emotional. The reason why the patriarch opened up this place back then was as a place to rest and clean up, but he didn't expect that after the kendo battle, Buddhism and Taoism would be attracted. There are countless high-ranking people, making this place a killing field, and now that the building is empty, it has become a desperate situation for those who come later.

Xu Beiyou turned his gaze to Shugui, who looked like an ordinary dead thing in his hand, and fell into deep thought involuntarily.

Grandmaster Shangguan Xianchen once came to this place, but master died on the bank of the river in the end, so master must have left this place.

Since the master left this place, it means that there must be a way to leave, but he hasn't found it yet.

What is the method?
Defeat cleverness with strength?

How to get out if blocked by a door?The simplest and most direct way is to break the door, which was Xu Beiyou's initial idea. With the power of Jade Immortal and the majestic realm of the [-]th Floor of Earth Immortal, he chiseled out inch by inch, pierced through the stone door, and naturally left this desperate place.

Just how to step into the realm of the eighteenth floor of the earth immortal?
He is now in the realm of the twelfth floor of the earth immortal, and there is still the realm of the sixth floor from the eighteenth floor.

Climbing a building is like climbing a mountain, one step at a time.

If Qingshuang is here, gather together the twelve swords of Jianzong, and make the twelve sword bones complete, Xu Beiyou feels that there is still some possibility. If he wants to directly cross the sixth heaven with just a special weapon in his hand, Xu Beiyou has no such confidence .

And judging from the fact that the ancestor Shangguan Xianchen still has the sword left with the inscription written by leisure, it is very likely that he did not leave this place by brute force.

What is the method?
Xu Beiyou frowned suddenly, subconsciously rubbing Shugui in his hand.

At this matter, he suddenly missed Xiao Zhinan, not entirely because of the relationship between the two of them, but also because she is extremely intelligent, and is best at this kind of ingenuity. Xu Beiyou is not stupid, but he has nothing to do with being good at such thoughts. .

Xu Beiyou thought for a long time but still couldn't figure it out, so he simply removed all the bamboo slips from the bookshelf and spread them out in front of his eyes. Even if he didn't know the characters in them, he bit the bullet and began to "read" word by word.

……

The imperial court has three government offices.

The so-called three mansions refer to the Governor's Mansion, the Secret Guard Mansion, and the Tiance Mansion. Among them, the Tiance Mansion is the most mysterious, but the location of the Tiance Mansion's yamen is not mysterious. It is located in the imperial city, and it can barely be regarded as the cabinet and the Tianji Pavilion. half a neighbor.

Now that the imperial court has been restructured, the head of the Tiance Mansion has been replaced, and the old talisman has been replaced with a new peach, so the Tiance Mansion also has a new look. The small building that has not been renovated for many years has been renovated, but for some reason, the gloomy atmosphere is even heavier.

The new governor of Tiance Mansion is Wei Wuji, who has the nickname of "Personal Cat". A general who once led troops to conquer the Quartet looked like a eunuch who had lived in the palace for a long time, so many people who hated this man-cat gave him a new nickname, Eunuch Wei.

Of course, very few people dared to call this nickname in person, but today's visitor was an exception. He smiled and called Eunuch Wei several times, but Wei Wuji just had no expression on his face, showing no signs of anger.

Because as early as ten years ago when they were fighting for the throne, the two were fighting side by side. They were not brothers but better than brothers. Even though their relationship had been estranged a lot over the years, they still wouldn't turn their faces over such a trivial matter.

Come, the sick tiger Zhang is not sick.

Zhang Wubing returned to the emperor this time because of His Majesty's decree to summon him. Just after the emperor and his ministers got it right, before he had time to go to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to report on his duties, he stopped by Wei Wuji's yamen on the way.

After the two greeted each other and sat down, Wei Wuji hesitated for a moment and asked, "May I ask, why is your Majesty announcing you to return to Beijing this time?"

Wei Wuji shouldn't have asked such important military matters so straight to the point, because it didn't conform to official rules, and he only asked because the person in front of him was Zhang Wubing.

Zhang Wuji straightened his expression, and said in a slightly heavy tone: "Because of the war in the northwest, since the beginning of summer, the situation in the northwest has become more and more tense day by day. Announcing my return to Beijing, I also want to really know what I know so that the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Households can make early preparations for food and troop deployment. .”

Wei Wuji's face darkened, and he said softly: "In this way, this battle must be fought."

Zhang Wuji nodded and said, "There is no other way out."
