Wei Cong's words were really painstaking. It is certainly wrong to violate the sect rules, but for the future of Zhengyang Sect, it is also human nature to promote the younger generation. It is understandable. The abnormality of the spiritual vein may be a natural disaster, not man-made. In short, he is dedicated to Zhengyang Sect. I dare not say that he has any merits, but his hard work is obvious. As for the faults, are there any?
Faced with Wei Cong's remarks, Hong Yuanzi couldn't scold him directly. The cultivators in the Jindan period are not ordinary people. They are all the pillars of the sect, and they still have to give each other face. After all, Wei Cong also brought up such a promising disciple. Even if there are some mistakes, it is not good to hold him accountable for it. The rest of the people thought the same way. As the elders of the sect, no one wants to hurt the harmony for a small matter.
But Gu Qiao didn't think so. After hearing Wei Cong's words, he was angry and his face became redder. He shouted loudly: "Great! If everyone is like you, bringing their own disciples to practice at the foot of Tianji Peak, is there any need for Tianji Pavilion to exist? Pavilion Master Wei, don't use the name of Zhengyang Sect to do this kind of self-interested behavior at the expense of others!"
As far as Gu Qiao knows, among the Jindan cultivators of Zhengyang Sect, only Wei Cong has come to Tianji Peak the most times. Like a person who protects his home, he can't tolerate others taking advantage of him. He has long been dissatisfied with Wei Cong's behavior.
After the abnormality of the spiritual vein appeared, Gu Qiao went to the underground cave to explore, and indeed found traces of people entering and leaving, and immediately thought of Wei Cong. But now the other party not only brought others into the underground cave, but also threw out such a high-sounding set of rhetoric. Gu Pavilion Master, who was furious, was unwilling to show any mercy.
"Gu Qiao, you should be sensible when you speak. When have I ever done anything that harms others and benefits myself?" Wei Cong rebuked harshly.
He was the head of Tianshu Pavilion after all, and his cultivation was higher than Gu Qiao's. He was repeatedly choked by the other party. No matter how good his Qi cultivation skills were, they were not as good as this. Wei Cong was angry. His aura was released, and his eyes were burning, staring at the other party.
The aura of the Jindan cultivator was extraordinary. The trees around him moved without wind. Some junior disciples, unable to bear the heavy burden, showed a look of fear and retreated one after another. But Gu Qiao was not afraid at all. He rolled up his sleeves, puffed his beard and glared and shouted: "What? You want to rely on your higher cultivation? I'm not afraid of you!"
"Enough! What a disgrace!"
Hong Yuanzi scolded lightly, but he didn't blame him. His voice was not loud, but it fell into the ears of Wei Cong and Gu Qiao, but it was like the sound of a chime, both peaceful and calm, but it was to correct the mind and eliminate delusions. The power of the sect master made the two of them feel awe-inspiring, and their anger was suppressed, and they dared not act rashly.
If two Jindan-stage cultivators fight, it will not be as simple as watching the fun, and the trouble will be huge. Fortunately, the sect master stopped them in time, and Chang Song and Ji Bo beside him also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. However, there was a hint of smile on Yan Qi's face that he could not hide, and he didn't care about everything in front of him.
Hong Yuanzi frowned, looked at the one who was at a loss, and said in a deep voice: "Tell me what you saw in the cave!"
The master was going to fight with the uncle, and he was in the whirlpool of the rapids. When he was in a state of fear, he suddenly heard the sect master calling him, and his heart was startled, and he answered incoherently: "Ah!? Yes...disciple obeys the order!"
Finally, he had a quick wit, and his mind turned a few times quickly, and then he covered up his embarrassment and told what he saw in the cave.
After finally finishing the words, Gu Qiao stared at him and asked: "Aren't you talking nonsense?"
"Disciple dare not!" He shrank his neck in fear.
"You..." Wei Cong pointed at Gu Qiao and was about to get angry.
"Forget it! You don't need to argue, just go down and see!" Hong Yuanzi turned around slowly.
The sect leader had given an order, and it was difficult for everyone to disobey. Wei Cong and Gu Qiao could only hide their resentment and followed the others to the cave entrance of the forging hall.
Five Jindan ancestors, plus Jian Yi, a group of seven people entered the cave entrance, followed the stone steps, and soon came to the stone hall.
Gu Qiao raised his chin, and Jian Yi, who understood, went up to activate the earth fire. Nine tongues of fire suddenly sprang out of the dragon head, and the red flames illuminated the stone hall of a hundred feet.
"Uncle! The spiritual energy in the earth fire is no longer chaotic, but it is much less than before!" When they arrived at the forging hall, Jian Yi's expression became much calmer and his voice became louder.
Jian Yi said the truth, and everyone saw it, but they didn't understand it, so they had to turn their eyes to the sect leader Hong Yuanzi. The latter said without comment: "Is there anything unusual in the formation?"
The group came to the cave where the formation plate was located. A gray-robed disciple who was sitting cross-legged in meditation slowly stood up and looked at the group of uninvited guests.
"What is this...?" Hong Yuanzi looked at the young man in the cave and turned around in confusion.
Gu Qiao stepped forward and replied: "Brother, this is the disciple who is guarding the formation plate." As he said that, he also looked at the young man in surprise and shouted: "Why don't you pay homage to the sect master and the ancestors!"
"Disciple pays homage to the sect master! Pay homage to the seniors!" The other party leaned over and clasped his fists, his behavior was calm, and he was not as busy as when facing his elders.
Hong Yuanzi glanced at the jade card on the other party's waist and asked in a deep voice: "Lin Yi, you are on duty here, is there anything unusual?"
Lin Yi's expression did not change, and he replied calmly: "Disciple has been guarding here for two and a half months, and has not found anything unusual about the formation plate!"
Hong Yuanzi hummed and said no more.
Gu Qiao waved his hand and shouted, "Okay, go out and wait for orders!"
Lin Yi bowed deeply again and walked out without looking up.
An outer disciple who guards the array plate really doesn't take these elders seriously. But when Lin Yi left, two people's eyes stayed on his waist. One person was paying attention to his wine gourd; the other was paying attention to his identity jade card. Lin Yi, Lin Yi from Da Shang, the enemy's road is narrow!
Lin Yi walked out of the cave of the forging hall calmly and saw a circle of people in front of the cave entrance. His expression did not change. He just lowered his head and walked straight to his own cave. Even when Song Shou and others came forward to greet him, he just showed a tired smile and claimed to take a rest. Song Shou and others who felt the same deeply agreed that the taste in the cave was not pleasant, and it was reasonable to take the opportunity to rest.
Returning to his own cave, he sealed the cave entrance casually. Lin Yi then sat on the ground with a frightened look.
After leaving the cave in a hurry, he was lucky at first, thinking that he could hide it from the world and no one would know about his underground trip. Perhaps, he could go there to practice in the future to promote his cultivation faster. But after Lin Yi stayed in front of the array plate to adjust his breath, he noticed something unusual. The spiritual energy in the cave became dishonest, or much thinner than before. He was worried at the time. Was it because the Golden Dragon Sword absorbed too much spiritual energy? If he could find the abnormality of the spiritual energy in the cave, how could he hide it from the elders of Tianji Pavilion?
It's bad! Thinking of this, Lin Yi became more and more uneasy. Of course, that trace of joy was gone.
Lin Yi hurriedly checked the red gold dragon pattern on his arm. Wherever his consciousness reached, the dragon pattern gradually disappeared into the skin. He breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly drove the spiritual energy to protect his body, so that at least no one would see the abnormality on his body. He still had no way to deal with the Golden Dragon Sword in the sea of consciousness, so he could only leave it to fate. I hope no one is interested in his body.
Just when he was feeling uneasy, Lin Yi noticed the movement in the stone hall until the arrival of the sect master and the ancestors. All he could do was to honestly guard the array plate and act as if he was on duty.
When the sect master and the Jindan ancestors swept over mercilessly, he really felt like he was stripped naked. The terrifying trembling was really unbearable, and he could only force himself to be calm and support himself.
Unexpectedly, the trouble caused by the Golden Dragon Sword actually shook the sect. However, he finally survived! No one would think of this matter on his head, fortunately!
Huh! After a long breath, Lin Yi felt a sense of pleasure of surviving a disaster! However, when this pleasure gradually faded away, it was followed by a deep fatigue. He formed seals with his hands and adjusted his breath.
The chaos caused by the abnormal spiritual veins of Tianji Peak was said to have been successfully quelled by the joint efforts of the sect ancestors.
However, this matter was widely spread among the four pavilions of the one peak. It was said that they had stolen the spiritual veins of the Tianji Pavilion to build their foundation; the Tianshu Pavilion was secretly suppressing the Tianji Pavilion; Wei Cong and Gu Qiao were sworn enemies. And so on.
These rumors naturally reached Wei Cong's ears, and he was so angry that he threatened to punish those who spread the rumors. But the rumors did not disappear because of this, and they still circulated in secret. The law does not punish the masses, so Wei Cong could only hold his anger in his arms, and finally pretended not to know.
However, after this incident, the disciples of the Tianji Pavilion and the Tianshu Pavilion were like water and fire. When the two sides met, they either glared at each other or spoke ill of each other. If it were not for the constraints of the sect rules, they might really fight each other.
Ten days after Lin Yi left the forging hall, the spiritual veins tended to stabilize, and the spiritual energy gradually recovered.
As for whether it was due to the powerful magic power of the ancestors, Lin Yi never thought of questioning anything. For him, it was good that nothing happened. It can be regarded as a task completed. In the remaining time, he, as an outer disciple, must practice well.
