Taiping Inn

After a stalemate for a while, the two dissipated together. No matter what, Li Xuandu finally blocked the fourth move, but his energy was also consumed by half. There are still three moves left, but these three moves correspond to the three highest-level Tianren Realm Grandmasters, which is not optimistic.

If he loses, although Li Xuandu will not worry about his life, even with the strong support of the Grand Master, he can still sit on the throne of the Taiping Sect, but he cannot control the power of the Taiping Sect. The leader and power are not closely related, just like Yan Feiqing and Li Yuanying, although they are the leaders of a sect, they have never held the highest power of the sect. Their identities are more like "princes". Even if there is no supreme leader, it is not necessarily in power. Throughout the ages, there are many puppet emperors who have been sidelined. If it were not for Tan Taiyun's successful promotion to the Changsheng Realm, and his years of dormant management and means of vertical and horizontal alliances, his identity in the five sects of the northwest would be just an empty frame.

Li Xuandu didn't have that much time to lie dormant and wait, so his goal from the beginning was to grasp the real power of Taiping Sect. He could give up some of the power of the sect leader and rule with the elders of the sect, but he couldn't be a puppet.

Realm cultivation is the foundation of living in the martial arts world, but if you want to achieve a career in the martial arts world, whether it is chivalry or tyranny, it won't work alone. Even if this person's realm is high, high to the sky, and he becomes an immortal, he can't influence the whole world. Because a person's control ability and control range are limited, at most he can be a world-famous saint or devil, but he can't be an "emperor".

Take the earth master for example. If he doesn't control the five sects in the northwest, even if he is invincible in the world, it's useless. Today, the Zhengyi Sect in Wuzhou opposes, and he flies to Wuzhou to attack the Zhengyi Sect. Tomorrow, the Butian Sect in Liaodong rebels again, and he flies to Liaodong to suppress the Butian Sect. He is too busy to split his body. Without power, there is no power, without power, there is no profit, without profit, there is no gathering of people, without rice in hand, even chickens can't be coaxed. Military force alone can frighten others for a while, but not forever. The more severe the suppression, the stronger the rebound. Only interests can keep people firmly in one's hands, and they are willing and happy to do it. Therefore, a reward and punishment system can make them actively serve with all their lives, which is much stronger than the unwilling and hidden resistance of military deterrence.

If you really want to do something, you must be organized, have subordinates and disciples, establish a hall, and delegate power while assigning tasks. Who is responsible for money, who is responsible for spying, who is responsible for interpersonal relations, who is responsible for killing and guarding, who is responsible for personnel, and who is responsible for passing on skills? In this way, the leader of the sect does not have to do everything himself, but only handles individual key matters, and it seems calm and relaxed. This is the "master style".

Li Xuandu is well aware of the truth, so he also understands that the principles in the saints' books are indeed very reasonable, but they are only used to demand oneself. You can't use these principles to demand others, and it is useless to use them to do things. No matter how bright the desired result and original intention are, the process in between is bound to be mixed with darkness and blood.

So Li Xuandu said that he was not pure-hearted, let alone upright, and even suspected of using any means to achieve his goal.

At this moment, the formation changed again, the handle of the dipper retreated, the dipper moved forward, and Sikong Zao, who was in the Tianshu position, appeared in front of Li Xuandu. If anyone knows Taiping Sect, they will know that this old man, like Shen Yuanzhou who likes to hide in the market and tell fortunes for people, has a gentle temperament and is a very interesting and wonderful person. Among the Seven Elders of Taiping, he does not belong to Shen Yuanzhong's faction, nor does he belong to Madam Lu's faction. He is a neutral person and only speaks from the standpoint of Taiping Sect.

After seeing Li Xuandu at this time, the old man smiled and said, "Mr. Li has such a high level of cultivation at such a young age, which really makes us old guys who have lived for many years in vain ashamed. Please accept the fifth move, Mr. Li."

After the voice fell, he stretched out his right hand, and made a sword finger with his index and middle fingers. A little light suddenly lit up on his fingertips. With the appearance of this little light, all the surrounding light was drawn over. Then, countless dazzling lights visible to the naked eye were drawn out from the seven golden light pillars falling from the gaps in the clouds. The strands were entangled and intertwined, and all gathered at his fingertips, making his fingertips shine brightly, dazzling like a miniature sun, and difficult to look directly at.

Without Sikong Zao speaking, Li Xuandu also knew that this corresponded to the Yang in the Yin-Yang Five Elements.

Sikong Zao flicked his fingers, and saw countless rays of light shooting from his fingertips to the nine heavens, like light and air, forming a large net, and then falling on Li Xuandu's head.

This move is a fusion of the "Wanhua Raozhi Sword" and the "Tianluo" in the "Eight Divine Powers". Yang is Qian Gua, and Qian is the sky, which is very compatible. From this point of view, after reaching the Tianren realm, it is no longer necessary to stick to the form of the sword. It can be done at will, and it is more difficult to break. If the Taiping Sect can gather seven Tianren realm grandmasters to form an array, even if Li Xuandu is already in the Tianren Wuliang realm, it will be difficult to take seven moves.

Li Xuandu looked up. The falling speed of this Tianluo net made of light and gas was not fast, but it covered a wide area, almost covering the entire Taiping Palace.

The net of heaven is vast and nothing can escape.

If it was a life-and-death battle, Li Xuandu could naturally dodge, but since it was a battle to decide the winner, he could not leave the scope of Taiping Palace. This was a rule that both sides did not say but knew. If Li Xuandu just wandered around without fighting, even if he won in the end, it would be difficult to convince the crowd.

The reason why Li Xuandu wanted to win was to use the power of a great victory to suppress the opposition voices within the Taiping Sect. He could not lose sight of the main goal and focus on the trivial. This was also the reason why Bai Xiushang would not help.

Bai Xiushang was also looking up at the big net of Tianluo, subconsciously thinking about how to crack it if he met. In fact, for her, the best way is to use her strength to break the tricks. After all, the realm of creation in heaven and man is two levels higher than that of the realm of heaven and man. In addition, this "Seven Star Array" is not complete, and there are more flaws. , you can break it with great force. But what if it is a complete "Seven Stars Array"? After thinking about it, Bai Xiushang couldn't grasp the countermeasures completely, so he could only try to crack them. As for whether it could be successful, it was probably in the 50% or 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the 50% of the

At this moment, a gentle voice suddenly came from behind Bai Xiushang: "Master Bai."

Bai Xiushang came to her senses, turned to look at the person coming, and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Haishi came in person."

The visitor smiled and replied, "After all, Qizhou is adjacent to Luzhou, and the journey is not far."

She stared at Zhang Haishi for a moment, and a slightly surprised expression appeared on her face: "Congratulations to Mr. Haishi for going up to the next level, and longevity is just around the corner."

An old man in black walked slowly to Bai Xiushang with a bamboo stick, which was Zhang Haishi.

Speaking of Zhang Haishi, we have to mention Wuzhen, who is about to arrive at Tianping Mountain. Although Wuzhen is not ranked high on the Taixuan List, he has excellent moral character and a good reputation in the world. In addition, he He is old and has a high seniority, so no matter how high or low the status of the people in the world, they should respectfully call him "Master Wuzhen". Zhang Haishi is a counterexample of Wuzhen. He has a very high level of cultivation, but he has a bad temper and a withdrawn temperament. He has seven parts of evil and three parts of evil. He is really not easy to get along with, so his reputation in the world is also a disgrace. Half. Many people respectfully call it "Mr. Haishi" on the surface, but behind their backs, they call it "East Sea Monster". The name of "East Sea Monster" originally belonged to the Qingwei Sect is now almost exclusive to Zhang Haishi. From this point of view, neither Li Xuandu nor Li Daoxu conforms to the traditional temperament of the Qingwei Sect. Zhang Haishi is the disciple of the Qingwei Sect who is the most like the ancestors of the Qingwei Sect in history.

If the Qingwei Sect wants to advance the world and compete with Zhengyi Sect and Wudao Sect, then Zhang Haishi is not a suitable candidate for the sect leader. But if the Qingwei Sect just wants to settle down and protect its own ancestors' foundation, Zhang Haishi will no longer It's just right.

Zhang Haishi looked at a scene above his head, withdrew his gaze, and said with emotion: "It is said that people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong, and they also say that wood is outstanding in the forest wind will destroy it. Now I think about it, I am extremely lucky. My master's reputation is too great. We disciples are not too eye-catching. Before me, there was a senior brother, and after me, there was another fourth brother, both of whom were outstanding people in the world. Only by making me more and more inconspicuous in the middle can I be Over the years, I have been stumbled and staggered, and now I have been sneaking into the realm of creation."

Bai Xiushang smiled and said, "Mr. Haishi is too humble."

Zhang Haishi continued, "In terms of qualifications, I can't compare with Sect Master Bai and Sect Master Qin, and I'm much worse than my senior brothers and junior brothers. I dare not seek the attitude of a earth immortal who is long-lasting, but I just want to pave the way for future generations."

Bai Xiushang is such a beautiful person, and immediately heard the voice of Zhang Haishi's words. The reason why he came here in person was to protect Li Xuandu, and he also said, "In this way, Mr. Haishi and I are the ones who are right." Together, we can plan."

Zhang Haishi smiled and said, "What Master Bai is saying. If you have to worry about Taiping Sect, Sect Master Bai will worry about this time. This time I will not thank Sect Master Bai. After all, sooner or later, I will be a family, and I will not say the words of the two families."

Bai Xiushang is not a little girl like Qin Su. After experiencing countless storms, she has long been calm and smiled and said, "Mr. Haishi's words are too early. However, the marriage between Zifu and Susu should be prepared for the future. Prepared early.”

Zhang Haishi nodded and said, "What Master Bai said is that the two are not young, so they should get married early. A few years ago, I was worried that the Zi Mansion was trapped in the cage in my heart, and I couldn't see through this matter and refused to marry a wife. I was busy helping him restore his state, running around, and I had no choice but to do so. After this incident, I began to prepare for it."

Bai Xiushang sighed softly: "There are new people in the world from generation to generation, and the new people have replaced the old people. In the blink of an eye, the young boys of that year have become the head of a sect and the head of a family, and the little girls have also got married one after another. He is called "Madam". It's time for us old people to consider our affairs."

Zhang Haishi looked into the sky in the distance: "Who said no?"
