Chapter 353 The Past of the Puritan Church

"Ye Tian has met Elder Shen. He really is not as famous as seeing him. It's a pleasure to meet you." Seeing that Shen Yangzi was dressed in a white Taoist robe, Ye Tian immediately bowed his hands and replied politely.

"Disciple has met the Great Elder!" Seeing that Shen Yangzi came to greet him in person, everyone quickly stepped forward and saluted respectfully.

"This disciple is incompetent. I failed to protect several juniors. I hope the elder will punish me." Zhang Zhiyuan's voice was hoarse, and he knelt down with his fists folded, expressing desolation and indignation.

"Since ancient times, the situation has changed a lot, and heroes are not judged by success or failure. Although there are many twists and turns in your downhill experience, it is not nothing in the end. Now that evil monsters are rampant, you should train harder. , no one has succeeded in building a foundation, and the future prosperity of our sect will depend on you." After Shen Yangzi said earnestly, he looked at the disciples in front of him, and finally his eyes fell on Zhang Zhiyuan, his eyes full of tears. expect.

"Let's get back first, Fellow Daoist Ye, I'm letting you see a joke, please come with me, the old man will take you to visit the Puritan Church." Shen Yangzi retreated all the disciples, and said to Ye Tian with a smile.

"Then I will trouble Elder Shen to lead the way." Ye Tian said lightly.

The two walked side by side on the steps of the Puritan Church. Shen Yangzi seemed to intend to win Ye Tian into the church, and had been testing Ye Tian's past experience, but Ye Tian just made up his identity as a casual cultivator. Fooled over.

However, Shen Yangzi didn't seem to give up. In fact, what he said to Zhang Zhiyuan's disciples earlier also proved from the side that the talents of the Puritanism are withering and declining day by day. Ever since the head teacher of the Puritan religion retreated, no one has succeeded in building a foundation.

"Elder Shen, can you tell me about the retreat of the Daoist Master of the Puritanism?" Ye Tian asked.

"It's a long story, but since Fellow Daoist Ye asked, the old man knows everything to answer." Shen Yangzi felt that Ye Tian was so concerned about the past of going to the Puritan Church that he seemed to be interested in the matter of joining the Puritan Church. happy look.

"Previously, the surrounding areas of the Puritan Church were not in such a state of decline. When I sent the head teacher to retreat, his cultivation base had reached the peak of alchemy. Looking at the world, it is difficult to have an opponent. Let alone those robbers and bandits who are here. It is those evil spirits who dare not show up near the Puritan Church. 'Panyu' town can be said to be a paradise for prosperous trade and closed doors at night."

When Shen Yangzi was preaching here, it seemed that the grand occasion of going to the Puritan Church appeared in front of his eyes, and his expression was a little dazed for a while.

Ye Tian didn't feel that Shen Yangzi was obsessed with the past. According to his current understanding of the world, a cultivation level like the peak of alchemy is really a high-level existence in the world.

"After the establishment of the Cangyue Kingdom in the north and the rise of the Wuri Sect, countless wars broke out between the two countries on the ground. Many practitioners from the Yan Kingdom and Cangyue also participated in it. This side is a little inferior, so I had to give up this piece of land and retreat to the rear. Until then, the land of "Panyu" was completely barren. Although the Fengshui aura of the Puritanism was not damaged, but there were swamps all around, and there were many bones. There is no food for thousands of miles, after all, today is not as good as it used to be." When he said this, Shen Yangzi couldn't help turning his head to look at the barren land below the mountain, full of emotion.

"After the war, the Upper Puritanism was the largest sect connecting the north and the south. Naturally, it was provoked many times by the Wuri Sect. An envoy of the Wuri Sect once found the gate of the Upper Puritanism and led the followers of the Wuri Sect. When the attack came, the big tree of the Puritanism would fall, and all the decent sects of the Yan Kingdom ignored the attack on the Puritanism, and some even came to make trouble. There was no attack by the Japanese sect. However, my going to Puritanism was a big loss. The disaster has continued to this day. Most of the disciples and elders in the foundation period died in battle. Only Elder Kou and I survived by chance, and we are trying our best to support the current situation of the Puritanism. .” Speaking of this, Shen Yangzi secretly sighed.

What an effort to support!

Ye Tian couldn't help sneering from the bottom of his heart when he heard Shen Yangzi's words. If Shen Yangzi knew that it was Elder Kou who was now colluding with non-Japanese religious believers to massacre the disciples of the Puritan religion, how would he feel?

The so-called knowing people, knowing the face but not knowing the heart, the Puritanism is unstable internally, and fish and dragons are mixed together. It is better not to hand over the body of Lin Xu, the head of the Sunless Sect, to avoid endless troubles.

"But this attack was just an envoy of the Wuri Sect, and the suzerain of the Wuri Sect did not attack. After this incident, the head teacher gradually felt unable to do what he wanted, so he decided to retreat and cultivate. During that period, there was no one from the Sunless Sect, but all kinds of sneak attacks and assassinations of our disciples have never stopped. Fortunately, Daoist Ye met this time, otherwise the group of disciples I went to Puritanism would have all died at the foot of the mountain When Shen Yangzi said this, his eyes could not help but resentment.

"Elder Shen, you have already thanked me for this, so you don't need to mention it again, and when I went to the Puritan stronghold at the foot of the mountain, Elder Kou had already given me some spirit stones." Ye Tian waved his hand, and immediately The subject changed, and he asked suddenly: "By the way, Elder Shen, I don't know how long Master Teacher has been in retreat."

"Fifty-three years." Shen Yangzi replied meaningfully.

Fifty-three years, Ye Tian thought to himself, maybe such a long time is not a big deal for a monk in the alchemy stage, but Shen Yangzi did not tell him what grade the master teacher formed. Jindan, if the grade of Jindan is low, not only is it difficult to break through the realm, but even the lifespan is much less.

But now that Elder Kou dared to collude with Wurizong in private to rebel, he obviously has no fear, thinking that the head teacher might have exhausted his lifespan before breaking through the closed door.

Shen Yangzi seemed to be aware of Ye Tian's questions, which were obviously not good for inviting him to join the Upper Puritan Church, so he changed the subject, pointed to a towering mountain peak and said, "Please look, Fellow Daoist Ye, what On the top of the mountain is the Shaking Spirit Tree, which is the sole product of my Puritan religion. It is the most precious treasure in the world. The Spiritual Energy of the Shaking Spirit Tree is extremely rich and strong. Whether it is used for forging body protection or refining magic weapons, it is the best in the world. One of the rarest materials."

After hearing what Shen Yangzi said just now, Ye Tian didn't put his mind on the most precious treasure in the world, the Shenshen Tree, but because Shen Yangzi quoted several idioms and allusions in his back and forth words.

For example, words such as "a big tree will fall, and a stone will fall into a well", these are all allusions and idioms from the earth. It seems that I am not a random guess about the origin of the name of Zhiyuan.

"Elder Shen, I just heard that what you said just now were all quotations from the classics, and your knowledge is very profound. Although Ye has little talent, he has a heart to learn. I don't know where you learned it from?" Ye Tian asked Shen Yangzi with his hands slightly cupped.

"Haha, fellow Daoist Ye, you're being polite. I've seen your words and words come out of your mouth. Why are you so self-effacing? Shen's knowledge is all from "Sage Sayings", which is included in this school. If you want to read it, I will read it." I'll send my disciples to find it for you later." Shen Yangzi liked elegant things such as Danqing scrolls, and Ye Tian's speech just scratched his itch, so he smiled happily stand up.

Afterwards, the two praised each other for a while, and then discussed their respective knowledge. Shen Yangzi's attitude became more enthusiastic, and he felt that Ye Tian and him had similar interests, and the matter of joining the religion was probably inseparable.

After listening to Shen Yangzi's words, Ye Tian also had some understanding. The world is more complicated than he thought. If the "Sage Saying" was written by a certain practitioner on earth, those people would be broken Will come to this world after the void?

Ye Tian also had some clues in his mind. There is a high possibility that the mysterious person was a cultivator from the earth. That's why he took care of himself more, but Ye Tian couldn't figure out what the mysterious man's purpose was.
