Do not die

Recently, due to a series of people breaking through the Nascent Soul, the "elder brother" who is thinking about "the hope of ZTE" is a little dizzy at the moment.

In the past, Lian Ziling "controlled the news and reported good news but not bad news." Recently, for his own selfish purposes, he has chosen without hesitation to make the entire Xingxiu Palace take the blame.

The "eldest brother" is undoubtedly very angry about these extremely selfish behaviors of the "third junior brother".

In the past, Lian Ziling had great trust in his abilities and conduct because he disguised himself so well.

As a result, the entire Xingxiu Palace, including him, was ignorant of the huge changes in the outside world. It was not until the fire burned to the eyebrows that they couldn't avoid it, and then they suddenly saw the truth, which made him look like a dim and incompetent fool.

It puts the entire Xingxiu Palace in a very embarrassing situation.

However, what can you do if you are angry?

Lian Ziling's breakthrough to Yuanying has become a fact. Even if he broke through two years earlier, the strength of both sides is still on par.

Even if he wanted to deal with the other party, he was completely powerless.

Moreover, given his age and outstanding talent in cultivating the Tao, his future prospects in the Nascent Soul Path are likely to be better than his own.

Perhaps now is the period when he has the most advantage when facing Lian Ziling.

You can't just ignore it and start a civil war, right?

Therefore, although he was extremely angry in his heart, facing Lian Ziling who said "I was wrong" but had a calm look on his face, "elder brother" still chose to forgive after some difficult self-counseling.

After a long silence, he looked at Lian Ziling and said slowly:

"What do you think?"

He thought very clearly. With Lian Ziling's "thoughtful thinking", since he chose to show off his cards to himself today, he should have already considered everything in his mind.

Although Lian Ziling has personally ruined his own character after having been in the sect for many years, he still has great trust in his abilities.

Facing the inquiry from "Big Brother", Lian Ziling said:

"It's time for Xingxiu Palace to make a comeback. In two or three years, we really can't afford to wait.

However, you can't really rush out unprepared.

Since it has been one hundred and eighty-three years and eight months since we closed the mountain, we might as well make up our minds and set the date of unsealing on the day when it turns one hundred and eighty-four years.

In this way, we have four months to prepare. "

“In these four months, on the one hand, we need to establish closer ties with those outside informants, and those who have been buried deeper can also be awakened.

First, let them collect more information for us, so that when we come out of the mountain, our understanding of the outside world will still be one or two hundred years ago, and our eyes will be darkened.

Another one is to get them active in advance. This can be regarded as a way to test the capabilities of the rogue cultivators who have seized power, as well as the hidden forces such as the Rilihen Sect with ulterior motives.

Regardless of the outcome, good or bad, we can use this to understand and take precautions in advance. "

"Elder Brother" listened carefully and nodded gently.

"This is external, on the other hand, it is internal."

Having said this, Lian Ziling's calm expression became solemn.

He looked at "Eldest Brother" and said softly:

"This nearly two hundred years of self-isolation has had an all-round impact on our Xingxiu Palace.

Not to mention those disciples at the qi training and foundation building levels, there have been two or three generations since before the mountain was closed.

Without the continuous blood transfusion from the outside world, all disciples can only dig within the Xingxiu Sea, and the overall quality has declined greatly.

The difference is not only talent, but also ambition, vision and experience.

The group who have reached the level of pill formation are basically the same people who entered the mountain gate before the Xingxiu Palace closed the mountain. Their situation is generally better.

But the real situation is that this is the weakest link in all our strengths.

On the one hand, our most elite and top group in the Dan Formation Realm have suffered great losses during the nearly two hundred years of mountain closure. "

Having said this, Lian Ziling sighed and shook his head gently.

The expressions of "Eldest Brother" and "Second Senior Sister" were also a little ugly, with expressions of nostalgia, regret, and happiness, and their expressions were very complicated.

Ask yourself, looking at the nearly two hundred years since the closure of Xingxiu Palace, they dare not say that they are the "most elite" and "top-notch" group.

It can only be said that they are the luckiest.

This time, it has been nearly two hundred years since the Xingxiu Palace was closed, and too many good seedlings were lost to the calamity.

Some of them smashed themselves into pieces and were completely destroyed.

Although some barely managed to save their lives, they were completely defeated from all aspects of "essence", "qi" and "spirit" by the failure of overcoming the tribulation.

I have neither the ability nor the will to come again.

Now, after Xingxiu Palace has been suppressed for nearly two hundred years, four Dan-jie masters have broken through the Nascent Soul one after another. It seems that they have accumulated a lot and have bottomed out.

But if you look carefully, you can find that between the four new Nascent Souls and Jiedan, there is a "gap" that is getting bigger and bigger and more empty.

Although the Nascent Soul is the decisive force, it is impossible for the four Nascent Souls to deal with the next situation alone.

Jiedan is their most important assistant and their mainstay.

In this ring, there is a huge fault in the Constellation Palace.

"...On the other hand, the nearly two hundred years of self-defense have made them too comfortable.

If the mountain door is opened without preparation and they are allowed to face the comrades outside, I am really worried that they will be blasted. "

The two people who were still feeling regretful a moment ago suddenly looked serious at this moment.

Although what Lian Ziling said was unpleasant and harsh, in the perception of the Xingxiu Palace disciples, they were always the only ones who looked down upon other monks!

But today, it's different from the past.

On the one hand, the most elite and top-notch group in Xingxiu Palace in the Formation Realm have too much "wasted" on reaching the threshold of Nascent Soul.

In the nearly two hundred years of comfortable life, everyone's first priority is to improve their cultivation and then attack the barrier like a natural chasm.

Subjectively, they do not have the urgency and necessity to improve their combat effectiveness.

Objectively, they also lack necessary external stimulation and environmental influence.

During the period when the Xingxiu Palace is closed, various resources for improving cultivation are not only open to supply, but are also the easiest to obtain, easier than at any other time.

Because the fundamental purpose of closing the mountain is to "use resources to create a pillar within a certain period of time."

Allocating time and energy on combat and killing skills is a failure to see the general trend and putting the cart before the horse.

Due to various factors, it is inevitable that the combat effectiveness of the Danjie monks will decline.

The situation outside is exactly the opposite.

Whether it is the resurgence of the Lihen Sect, the expansion of other secret forces, or the endless killings of the casual cultivators in order to fight for and defend the ownership of the spiritual veins, this has actually improved the actual combat capabilities of the alchemy monks.

It can be said that none of the alchemy monks who have been able to rise to the present position in the nearly two hundred years since the Xingxiu Palace sealed the mountain are of the same generation.

Regardless of the future potential, just talking about the strength comparison at the Danjie level, Xingxiu Palace will definitely not get the slightest advantage.

The old sorrow has not gone away, but the "elder brother" has new sorrow. He is very upset. When he sees the "culprit" in front of him, he can't help but ask for advice:

"What can you do about this problem?"

Lian Ziling shook his head and said:

"That's the truth, what can I do?

You can't expect me to come up with some ideas to completely reverse this situation, right? "

The moment the words came out of his mouth, "Elder Brother" knew that he was "frivolous", but when he really heard the answer, he couldn't help but sigh.

“However, we cannot say that we will do nothing if we cannot think of a way to completely reverse the situation.

In these last four months, we must pay close attention to our actual combat capabilities. "

"It's a tradition within the sect. Members of the same sect like to compete with each other until the point is reached. Blood is rarely seen."

“My opinion is, let’s throw this tradition away for now.

In order to make them really nervous, we might as well do the opposite and set a few death quotas! "

Death quota? !

As soon as these words came out, the two of them were startled again.

"Second Senior Sister" couldn't help but said: "Is this... too cruel?"

Lian Ziling said: "Senior sister, if you have other good ideas, that would of course be better."

"Uh..." "Second Senior Sister" was speechless by these words.

Of course she couldn't come up with a better solution.

Four months may seem like a long time, but if a Dan-forming monk's actual combat ability is significantly improved, it is no different than "in the blink of an eye."

The time is short and the task is heavy. Although the "death force" is too rough and inhumane, it is the most effective and the most likely to achieve substantial results.

So, she chose to shut up.

"Eldest Brother" slowly said: "Okay, I agree to this in principle, but I have to inform Junior Sister Lin."

With that said, he looked at Lian Ziling and asked, "Do you have any other suggestions?"

At this moment, his inner emotions were extremely complicated.

Although after this incident, his impression of "Third Junior Brother" Lian Ziling could never return to the past, he still had to admit that the other party's considerations were very appropriate and there was nothing wrong with him.

Strengthen information collection externally, cast stones to ask for directions, and conduct death training internally.

He had considered everything inside and outside, and in a hurry, he couldn't think of a better arrangement than this.

He couldn't help but have more expectations.

However, he had the mentality of hitting one shot regardless of date, and did not really expect Lian Ziling to continuously "vomit" new ideas.

Lian Ziling's figure sitting cross-legged was slightly straightened, his expression was more solemn than ever before, and his eyes were more determined than ever before.

Seeing his silent change, both of them were a little shocked.

Lian Ziling first looked at "Second Senior Sister", then stared at "Elder Senior Brother" and said:

“The two previous suggestions are just routine measures.

It is effective, of course, but how effective can it be? Can we fundamentally ensure our advantages?

I'm looking forward to it!

Our mountain closure incident took too long and gave the outside world too many opportunities.

Counting Junior Sister Lin together, the four of us are the ones who can really determine the success or failure of Xingxiu Palace.

Although we have broken through to the Nascent Soul level, we have not broken through for a long time and the foundation is not stable. Although it is stronger than Jiedan, the gap is not too big.

If it is carefully set up, it is not without danger of death.

Not to mention the Lihen Golem, which has almost completed two revivals. If faced with it alone, it would be difficult to escape!

This is what we can see, but what about those who haven’t? "

"Eldest Brother" was in a very bad mood.

Because of Lian Ziling's two previous suggestions, the hope in his heart was slightly raised, but now it was crushed by his own hands.

"Elder Brother" was even a little angry. He stared at Lian Ziling and said fiercely: "What suggestions do you have?"

"Open the Xingxiu Tianchi!" Lian Ziling said softly.

Their expressions instantly froze.

His soft words sounded like thunder exploding in the ears of the two of them, or like the whispers of a devil.

Xingxiu Tianchi, this is a topic that they all subconsciously avoid and do not want to touch.

But from the moment he broke through and became Yuanying, this word has been lingering in his heart almost all the time.

What caused the current predicament in Xingxiu Palace?

The sudden death of the ancestor of the previous generation Yuanying?

This is a symptom, but not the real reason.

The real reason is very simple, "the green and the yellow are not connected". When the ancestor of the previous generation of Yuanying died, no new Yuanying stepped forward to support the situation of Xingxiu Palace.

But here's the strange thing.

Now that Xingxiu Palace has been closed for nearly two hundred years, even though so many forerunners have been lost, there is still enough energy left to "give birth" to four new Nascent Souls in just a few years.

——These four newly promoted Nascent Souls are rushing to break through at this time. Of course, there are their own factors, but it is also because Xingxiu Palace poured in huge amounts of resources regardless of the cost, so it is called "promoting birth".

So, obvious question.

Since Xingxiu Palace has the ability to support many Nascent Souls, why do strange things like "the Nascent Souls fail to take over" happen?

If there had been a Nascent Soul cultivator in the Xingxiu Palace before the death of the ancestor of the previous generation of Yuanying, he didn’t need to be very strong. As long as he had just entered the realm of Yuanying, the Xingxiu Palace would not have been closed for so long.

The problem lies in this "Xingxiu Tianchi".

For Yuanying monks, this is the most precious thing.

With the help of it, even Nascent Soul monks who have just broken through can receive huge benefits in a short period of time as if they have received initiation from an expert.

Make your cultivation stable faster, accelerate the improvement of your cultivation, make your body stronger, and your soul become more pure...

The benefits are simply too numerous to describe.

But the moment it took effect, a curse was also born.

Because all this is at the expense of "monopolizing" the futures of other non-Nascent Soul monks in the Xingxiu Palace.

This is really evil.

Comparing the results before and after Xingxiu Tianchi took effect, there was no change in the aura of Xingxiu Sea, and the talents and minds of other Xingxiu Palace disciples were not affected in any way.

It looks still, still so prosperous.

But there will be no new Nascent Souls born, just like ears of rice that look like they are growing well, but are full of empty shells inside.

This is simply the most vicious curse.

Only when the Yuanying who has used this Xingxiu Tianchi dies completely will this curse disappear temporarily!

Yes, just for a short time.

Lian Ziling's soft words, like a poisonous snake spitting out a message, sounded in the minds of the two of them, and it was like a spring breeze, giving them signs of recovery and breaking through again. (End of chapter)
