Chapter 1152 Competition
We all know that the sects are definitely not as peaceful as they seem, and they are fighting each other endlessly.
It's not that the monks of the Zongmen don't like fighting in the nest, but the living environment is such that they can't get resources without fighting or fighting, and they can't even keep them.
How many sects who thought they could be pure-hearted and ascetic finally disappeared in the long river of time? Countless!
It seems that the people of Tian Chan Sect are more unreasonable and dangerous, and Guishan Seminary is much more kind, right? But in fact, taking out the affairs of the sects in the Jingxi area one by one, the bloody footprints left by the Guishan Seminary all the way to the first-class sect are no less than those of the Tianchan Sect.
The two sects just look different.
Of course, there is no clear statement of right and wrong. Depends on what angle you stand at.
Jingxi now has only two first-class sects, Guishan Seminary and Tianchan Sect. It's been years of fighting openly and secretly. The final result is just a balance of power, and no one can do anything about it.
This kind of balance of power is actually very common in the cultivation world, especially between sects confined to the same area. Because the strength of each family is also affected by the talents of the disciples, for example, suddenly there is a genius disciple, which leads to a particularly powerful situation in a certain generation. But in the long run, the strength of a sect depends on the amount of resources it has.
The mastery of more resources and longer time will increase the strength of the sect, and at the same time, it will be able to occupy more resources and embark on the path of the strong and the strong.
But when the resources in an area have reached a very sensitive point, there is no way to occupy them wantonly, so what should we do?
The answer is to take someone else's. But the weak can't be robbed wantonly, it's good to have an excuse, and they can't do it often, otherwise they will be attacked by the sects at the bottom. Not everyone can bear the anger.
So in the end, there will often be the current predicament between Guishan Seminary and Tianchanzong: the competition between the strong.
If you lose, you will inevitably give up some resources.
The key to winning or losing is still the hard power of the sect.
When the strength of the lower level is equal, it depends on the comparison of the strength of the upper level. The strength of the upper class was originally balanced, but since last year, this balance has been broken.
Luo Xuan, the suzerain of the Heavenly Toad Sect, broke through the pass, successfully broke through from the sixth level of the Xuanhai Realm to the seventh level of the Xuanhai Realm, and successfully stepped into the back realm of the Xuanhai Sea!
Although Huang Yansong, the Suzerain of Guishan Seminary, entered the retreat at almost the same time as Luo Xuan, he failed to break through in the end, and was not even able to touch the threshold of the next realm.
Failure to break through is a normal thing, especially for monks in the Xuanhai Realm. The failure of Huang Yansong, the suzerain of Guishan Seminary, was actually considered lucky. Because he did not really enter the breakthrough state during the entire retreat process, the so-called "failure" is not a big deal, and he will not experience the "Xuanhai Tribulation" to endanger his life.
Breakthroughs are rare. Stepping into the Seventh Layer of Xuanhai also means that the suzerain of the Tianchan Sect has officially stepped into the ranks of the strongest monks.
The balance of power was broken, and Guishan Seminary soon felt the pressure from the Tianchan Sect.
This pressure will not be alone, but will come from all directions.
Because the entire sect forces in Jingxi will cause waves due to the breakthrough of Luo Xuan, the suzerain of the Tianchan sect. Supporters will naturally become strong vanguards, oppressing and testing the small sects that belong to the Guishan Seminary's shelter, and then forming two forces to confront each other.
When they are in balance, they are stable, but once they are broken, they will be connected one after another.
Now Guishan seminary has a deep understanding. Even during this period of time, nearly one-third of the sects that originally followed them have changed their sects and gone to the Tianchan Sect. This directly caused the prestige of Guishan Seminary to plummet, and at the same time, it also lost a large amount of "tribute".
The suzerain personally attended the last "Book Tasting Conference" Guishan Seminary and Tianchan Sect, but they didn't come this time. One is guarding the house and the other is looking for opportunities.
Don't think that the Heavenly Toad Sect will only slowly oppress and erode, as long as they have the opportunity, they don't mind a raid on the mountain gate to create a bloody case. As long as the victory is clean enough, who else can take them?
Lin Dashan was holding a wine glass, when he heard Yu Aofeng's sarcasm, he naturally understood what the other party was ridiculing, but he didn't get angry, instead he said with a smile: "Shen Hao and my sect disciple Nie Yun are life-and-death friends. It is because of this friendship that Shen Hao has the opportunity to become a registered disciple under the old tree peak of my Guishan Seminary.
At that time, who would have thought that Shen Hao would now become the foreign affairs chief deacon of Fenghong Villa, in charge of all affairs with the sect? After all, this is all the good luck of my Mount Guishan Seminary. Whether it's taking advantage of the situation or luck, it's my own business, so what should I do with others?
It's a pity, when I heard that Elder Yu's grandson also had a chance to get to know Shen Hao, something went wrong.
Isn't this time and fate? "
Yu Aofeng's breath fluctuated, and he looked at Lin Dashan with cold eyes. The death of his grandson Yu Shengjue was a great pain in his heart, and he still can't let it go. Even he has always been brooding over Shen Hao, always feeling that his grandson's death is inseparably related to this person, and he even had murderous intentions. In the end, if it wasn't for the sudden disappearance of the Yueying Building where he obtained the information, and Shen Hao's rising in the Xuanqing Guard, he would have killed him long ago.
Now Shen Hao has become the head deacon of foreign affairs of Fenghong Villa, specializing in dealing with the affairs between the Jingjiu Dynasty and the sect. This entry has to make the Tianchan Sect fear three points. That's why Yu Aofeng sarcastically ridiculed that Guishan Seminary used the personal friendship of its disciples to take advantage of Shen Hao's current status.
Yu Aofeng didn't expect that he couldn't make fun of the ridicule, but Lin Dashan slapped him back, and he said nothing about his scars without any scruples.
"Lin Dashan, my grandson's death must have something to do with your disciple Nie Yun. Are you making sarcastic remarks here to remind me not to forget this grievance?" Yu Aofeng didn't want to burn the "fire" either. He went to Shen Hao, who he was mainly suspicious of, and brought Nie Yun with him instead.
Lin Dashan did not blame the other party, after all, the two families have been fighting for so many years, who has no idea?
"Joke! Your unlucky grandson will die as soon as he dies. Why do you care about my disciples at Guishan Seminary?"
It's just a matter of scene, so it's not a problem to say a few words to Lin Dashan. What was on my mind was another matter.
The attitude of Shen Hao coming over just now made Lin Dashan think about it. Now look at the attitudes of Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshanzong towards Shen Hao. Perhaps Guishan Seminary can borrow greater and more practical momentum from Shen Hao, or from Fenghong Villa?
If you can really borrow the "potential" of Fenghong Villa, at least for the time being, you can stabilize the situation of Guishan Seminary in the boundary of Jingxi, right?
However, Lin Dashan can't open the mouth if he wants to help with empty teeth, and he can't always talk about the relationship between Nie Yun and Shen Hao, he has to give some benefits.
What good can it do?
It seems that I have heard from Nie Yun that Shen Hao is very interested in the underground palace in the City of Death.
