Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

Chapter 36 Three major sects and eight major families

Jiang Sheng looked around again and found that the entire main hall was empty.

Except for an incense table and these red candle arrays, there was nothing else!

Obviously looking at the magnificent Taipinghe Mansion, there is a feeling that the gold and jade are lost in the outside.

This feeling is very strange, as if the most precious things in this River God's mansion are the things in front of me.

Not long after, Qiao Xuan and Xu Xiao also arrived. Jiang Sheng knew from their expressions that they didn't find anything good.

As expected, Qiao Xuan said with some unhappiness: "I searched for a long time, but everything was empty. Not to mention any elixirs or treasures, not even gold or silver."

Xu Xiao also looked depressed: "It's the same here. I searched for a long time and found nothing. It just looks like an empty frame."

"Don't be anxious, you two. Take a look at this thing in front of you first." Jiang Sheng pointed at the red candle and the formation and said.

Qiao Xuan took a look, felt a little uncertain with his spiritual consciousness, and then changed his expression: "The demon actually used children to maintain this formation. Why does this formation feel so weird to me?"

Xu Xiao also suppressed his disgust and felt it carefully, and then said with some uncertainty: "This formation is so weird."

"There is clearly something evil inside, but it looks vast and bright, and there is a faint sense of compassion, and there is even some unknown aura."

"This formation"

Seeing Xu Xiao's hesitant look, Jiang Sheng added: "Do you want to say, Fellow Daoist Xu, that this formation is not similar to that of our Eastern Continent?"

Xu Xiao nodded, then shook his head: "Director Jiang, please forgive me for my limited knowledge and I dare not confirm."

"The Eastern Territory continent is so vast. Just on the shore of the East China Sea, there are seven countries: Qi, Wei, Lu, Yan, Zhao, Chu, and Zheng. The Eastern Territory continent spans hundreds of millions of miles, and there are countless creatures. There are countless blessed places in the immortal family."

"If this formation is not from Qi, then I am sure, but if it is said that this formation is not from the Eastern Continent, I am really not sure."

Jiang Sheng didn't say much. Xu Xiao was just an inner disciple of the Lan Yue Sect. Although he was personally taught by the elders of the Zi Mansion, the Lan Yue Sect was, after all, the local sect in Qingzhou, Qi State.

How many classics does a Jindan sect store?

As for Jiang Sheng, although he is an inner disciple of Penglai, he is only an inner disciple, not a true disciple.

Only when these inner disciples can prove the high-grade golden elixir and formally embark on the road to immortality can they be classified as true disciples of the Tao Sect, and the various classics of the Tao Sect will be open to them.

Before this, even if he died during his external training, it was not a big deal.

Therefore, Jiang Sheng actually didn't know much about these formations. He just instinctively sensed that this formation was not similar to the Xuanmen formation, so he judged that it was not something from the Eastern Continent.

The three of them were silent. You looked at me, and I looked at you.

Qiao Xuan sighed: "Now that we have found out, we might as well completely destroy this place to save it from being occupied by other evil spirits."

"Well, although the origin of this formation cannot be determined, this formation must not be the right way of Xuanmen, so it doesn't matter if it is destroyed." Xu Xiao obviously also supported the destruction of this place.

Jiang Sheng thought for a while and said, "In that case, can you two leave the flowing light and clear water array outside the cave for Pindao?"

Qiao Xuan nodded: "The Taoist priest is hiding in Qingping Mountain, so he really needs a suitable formation. If the Taoist priest needs it, just use it."

Xu Xiao also said: "If Taoist Master Jiang doesn't mind it, I can help him arrange the formation."

Jiang Sheng smiled and said, "That poor Taoist would be disrespectful."

Then the three of them worked together to destroy the incense table and the evil formation in the main hall, and Jiang Sheng took away all the formation flags of the Flowing Light and Blue Water Formation.

As the stream of water curtain disappeared without a trace, washed away by tens of millions of rivers, the entire Taiping River Mansion instantly turned into ruins and was subsequently buried at the bottom of the river.

At this time, the River God himself also sensed the disappearance of a formation. He knew that this was the formation in Qingshan County being destroyed.

"Jiang Sheng, please wait for me!" The River God suppressed his anger. If he couldn't leave the formation now, he would have to tear Jiang Sheng alive!

One of the clones and the formation were destroyed, and the time for the River God to condense the incense and golden elixir would be delayed by at least three years.

But even so, the River God must be patient, because once he leaves the formation now, all his previous efforts will be lost!
"There's no rush, I'm not in a hurry. When I take off my mortal body and condense the incense and golden elixir, I'll come back to you for revenge!"

"Jiang Sheng, Zha Liangcai, Xu Xiao, and those traitors who betrayed me! No one can escape!"

The hateful voice of the River God echoed in the mansion, and the deity gradually regained his composure and continued to absorb the power of the pure incense, dyeing the gray fake elixir in his body with traces of gold.

I saw that most of the fake elixir in the River God's body had turned into gold, leaving only a small area that had not been completely smudged.

If the remaining small area is turned into gold, the fake elixir in the River God's body will turn into the incense golden elixir.

And the River God will also change from a fake elixir monk with a lifespan of only 600 years to a real person who enjoys the golden elixir for 800 years.

There are only the last few years left. It’s nothing more than waiting for another three to five years. The river god has the patience.

He had endured it for forty-eight years, so what would he endure for another three to five years?

But Jiang Sheng, Xu Xiao, and Qiao Xuan returned to the shore. Xu Xiao followed Jiang Sheng back to Qingping Mountain to arrange the formation, while Qiao Xuan returned to the county government office to continue recuperating. In this fight with the demon in the Purple Mansion Realm, both Xu Xiao and Qiao Xuan were seriously injured, and they may not be able to recover after several months of rest.

If it weren't for the River God Cave Mansion, they wouldn't have come in a hurry just to make some adjustments.

But no one expected that despite being the river god who had been dominating for decades, the cave would be empty.

Qiao Xuan, who was happy for nothing, could only go back depressed to continue recuperating.

After Jiang Sheng brought Xu Xiao back to Qingping Mountain, Xu Xiao first helped Jiang Sheng set up the formation in the Taoist temple, and then Jiang Sheng personally led streams to surround the Taoist temple to allow the formation to take shape.

After arranging the formation, Xu Xiao was silent for a moment and took out a jade bottle from his storage bag: "Director Jiang, I found this from Mr. Kong Kong's storage bag."

Jiang Sheng took the jade bottle and opened it for a sniff: "Ziyun Barrier-Breaking Pill?"

Xu Xiao nodded: "Dao Zhang Jiang also knows that the Ziyun Barrier-Breaking Pill is the best elixir to open up the Zifu. And this elixir must not be owned by Mr. Kong Kong himself, otherwise he would not come here to risk Ziyang Jade and Zifu. A battle between monsters and demons."

"What Fairy Xu means is that the Ziyun Barrier-Breaking Pill was given by the demon?" Jiang Sheng asked.

Xu Xiao looked a little solemn: "Yes, that's what I guessed. Otherwise, I really can't understand why Young Master Kong would betray him suddenly. Maybe the demon also promised Young Master Kong something else."

Jiang Sheng nodded slightly: "Since ancient times, wealth and silk have moved people's hearts. For monks like us, the resources for cultivation are comparable to life. It is not surprising that Young Master Kong Kong betrayed him for this."

"Dao Zhang Jiang may not know something. This Ziyun Barrier-Breaking Pill is a rare thing in the entire Qingzhou. Countless foundation-building families and small sects are looking forward to this thing. And those who can refine or store this pill, Only our three major sects in Qingzhou and those Zifu aristocratic families." Xu Xiao explained.

Jiang Sheng understood what Xu Xiao meant. The demons in the Taiping River must be related to the three major sects or the Zifu family, otherwise the origin of the Ziyun Barrier-Breaking Pill would not be clear.

Maybe it's not impossible that the demon was deliberately placed in Dongjun by some force.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to understand why the aristocratic families and sects of Dongjun turned a blind eye to the demon that had been wreaking havoc in Dongjun for so many years.

"Does the Taoist understand what I mean?" Xu Xiao looked at Jiang Sheng.

Jiang Sheng nodded: "Don't worry, Fairy Xu, Pindao will act with caution."

"It is said that the fairy arranged a formation for me, and I am very grateful. It is a miserable life in the mountains, and I only have a cup of tea, so I would like to ask the fairy to enjoy it."

Xu Xiao was stunned for a moment. She was a little surprised when she suddenly received Jiang Sheng's invitation, but then Xu Xiao smiled and said, "Of course I am happy to be invited by Director Jiang."

"Fairy please."

Jiang Sheng invited Xu Xiao into the Taoist temple, took Xu Xiao to look at the portrait of the ancestor in the front hall, and then entered the side hall.

The clear spring was taken and the stove was brought. As Jiang Sheng's foundation-building true fire was activated, the teapot on the stove began to emit a faint fragrance.

As the tea entered the cup, Jiang Sheng pushed it in front of Xu Xiao: "This is Wuyin tea. It was picked and refined by Pindao from Penglai Sendai before going down the mountain. I also asked the fairy to taste it."

Xu Xiao nodded slightly, raised his sleeves to cover it and took a sip. Then a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "This tea calms the mind and makes people extra awake, as if they are in an ethereal foggy valley, and there is a faint feeling of ecstasy. It is indeed extraordinary." .”

Jiang Sheng smiled and said: "It's just an ordinary spiritual tea. If the fairy likes it, I can give the fairy a few taels."

There was a hint of brilliance in Xu Xiao's beautiful eyes: "Taoist Master Jiang used to call me Fellow Daoist Xu. But now he calls me Fairy and offers spiritual tea. Does Taoist Master have anything to ask of me?"

Jiang Sheng's expression was still calm, his eyes were clear, and his face was serious: "I am new here. Apart from Qingshan County, I don't know much about the situation in Dongjun."

"I don't even know if there is any place or city in East County where we can find cultivation resources."

"After much thought, the fairy is a direct descendant of the Lan Yue Sect, and the Lan Yue Sect is the leader of the Xuanmen in Qingzhou. Therefore, I have to ask the fairy to help me solve my doubts."

Xu Xiao smiled and said: "You really have something to ask for, otherwise a cold and arrogant person like Taoist Master wouldn't be like this."

As he said that, Xu Xiao said seriously: "Such small things can naturally help the Taoist master solve his doubts."

"There are three major sects in our Qingzhou, namely the Lanyue Sect where I am, the Qingyun Sect, and the Tianjian Sect. The three major sects are guarded by Master Jindan, who is the leader of the righteous path in Qingzhou."

"And apart from these three major sects, even the Qingzhou Prefectural Mufu does not have a real Jin Dan."

"Qingzhou is divided into eight counties. Each of these eight counties has a Zifu family."

"They are the Cha family of Dongjun, the Wang family of Guangjun, the Zhang family of Anjun, the Han family of Changjun, the Zheng family of Gaojun, the Zhao family of Haijun, the Zhou family of Changjun and the Xu family of Qingjun where the state capital is located."

"In the eight counties, there are practice shops and markets for monks to trade practice resources, and there are also some restaurants and alchemy houses for monks to sell spiritual elixirs and monster flesh and blood."

Jiang Sheng looked at Xu Xiao who was talking eloquently and asked curiously: "Fairy Xu, is she from the Xu family in Qing County?"

Xu Xiao nodded, with a slight smile on his face: "My little girl is from the Xu family."

"To be honest with Director Jiang, my father is the current head of the Xu family, and he has a somewhat bad reputation in the world."

"If the Taoist priest needs any resources for cultivation, I can take the Taoist priest to visit Dongjun County."

　The second update is here. I can’t hold it any longer, so go to sleep.
