Chapter 183 182 Chongyun, What Do You Think of the Position of Heavenly Master?

Chapter 183 182. Chongyun, what do you think of the position of Heavenly Master?

At the same time as the Tianshi Mansion was in civil strife, the entire Tang Dynasty was not at peace.

Chaos broke out in the east and north at the same time.

Li Song, the supreme elder of Tianshi Mansion, Abbot Liaoyuan of Bodhi Temple and other older masters died.

On the contrary, there are also young and powerful people who have become famous.

In addition to Tang Xiaotang, who has basically shown the potential to be the new Heavenly Master, the most eye-catching new generation masters this time are Suzhou Chu Yu and the Xiao family brother and sister from Longwai.

Chu Yu's talent and reputation have been established for a long time, so we can ignore it for now.

The Xiao brothers and sisters shined brightly, beyond many people's expectations.

In the previous battle in the Western Region, the Xiao Clan outside Long suffered heavy casualties, and almost all the high-level officials were defeated.

Not only did the ancestors grow old, but almost all the Mesozoic generations of the fathers were killed or injured.

The person who finally took over as the new clan leader was Xiao Hang, the direct grandson of the eldest son of Xiao.

Fortunately, the Xiao family's youngest three-day master is still here, and can still barely support the Xiao family's appearance.

However, the other masters suffered too many losses, and the Xiao clan's strength was greatly reduced. There were only a few masters in the past three days.

No wonder Li Xuan made a backup plan and targeted the Xiao clan outside Long.

The Xiao clan is currently in one of the few crisis moments in its history, and the people who fill the vacancy of masters in the clan are two very controversial people.

A brother and sister.

Namely Xiao Chunhui and Xiao Xueting.

According to the current news, they and Xiao Hang are brothers and sisters from the same father.

But Xiao Chunhui and Xiao Xueting came from the outer chamber.

After the Battle of the Western Region, the two of them just stood in front of the stage.

Although information clues from Li Xuan's investigations in recent years indicate that these two people did exist before the War of the Western Regions, but were not recognized by the Xiao clan, there are still many discussions about their identities.

Previously, Xiao Hang, the new clan leader, accepted the half-brothers and sisters against all opinions.

But this time, Xiao Hang himself was stationed in Longwai's ancestral land, and Xiao Chunhui and Xiao Xueting, brothers and sisters, accompanied the Holy Master on his expedition to the East China Sea, and they all made a splash.

The Xiao clan outside Long has added two new masters who have reached the three-day realm.

Xiao Xueting even broke the record of her elder brother Xiao Hang and became the youngest seventh-level master of the Xiao clan outside Longwai.

After the demon chaos in the East China Sea was generally stabilized, Xiao Xueting suddenly rushed thousands of miles away and suddenly rushed to the land of Wuyue to help fight.

It was her sudden attack and her team-up with Chu Yu that made King Wu unable to even escape and he was so angry on the spot.

Among the younger generation of the Xiao family, three top three-day masters emerged in a short period of time, making everyone pay attention.

On the ruins of the building that had collapsed, there was a radiance of recovery and rebirth after the disaster.

Although the spiritual energy of the world is now surging, which is conducive to the cultivation of monks, there are such a large number of young top masters. Previously, except for the Tang Ting Imperial Household under special circumstances, only the Tianshi Mansion family had produced Xu Yuanzhen, Li Zhengxuan and Tang Xiaotang.

Now, the Xiao clan outside Longwai has been added.

As a result, although Xiao Chunhui and Xiao Xueting are not second or third best among their peers, most people today still rank them with Xiao Hang, so they are called the eldest son, second son, and third niang of the Xiao family.

However, in view of the current situation of the Xiao clan outside Longwai, they now have a lot more mystery.

Controversy has always existed about the life experiences of brothers Xiao Chunhui and Xiao Xueting.

On the other hand, many people are speculating about the role of the Tang imperial family and Her Majesty the Queen in this?

Lei Jun took a closer look at the intelligence collected by Li Xuan.

One of them caught his attention.

The identities of the mothers of Xiao Chunhui and Xiao Xueting remain a mystery.

Li Xuan inquired many times, but still didn't know the identity of the concubine who was the father of the Xiao brothers and sisters.

This familiar sense of déjà vu has a story... Lei Jun couldn't help but gossip as he recalled some of the novels he had read on Blue Star before traveling through time.

He shook his head slightly, took back his unrestrained self, and continued to study other information recorded in the iron book.

To say that the Xiao brothers and sisters have stories is a joke.

But it is true that Xiao Chunhui and Xiao Xueting, brothers and sisters, have their own characteristics in practice.

The Xiao clan outside Long is one of the five surnames and Qiwang, and has a long history of Confucianism.

Xiao Chunhui, like his elder brother Xiao Hang, is a seventh-level scholar.

But the news that attracts attention about Xiao Chunhui is that he seems to be born with physical deficiencies.

Even with the background of the Xiao clan, it would be impossible to make up for it by helping him make up for it the day after tomorrow.

In his practice, he followed an almost pure divine soul path, which was very extreme.

Under such circumstances, being able to break through to the seventh heaven realm is already a legend.

During the chaos in the East China Sea, everyone was even more impressed.

His sister Xiao Xueting is in good health.

But for the Xiao clan in Longwai, who are heirs to Confucianism, this may be a bit too healthy.

Xiao Xueting is not a Confucian practitioner.

Instead, follow the martial arts path.

Soldiers attack warriors.

Use a sword.

But it is very different from the Confucian swordsman.

This surprised the world again.

However, considering her and Xiao Chunhui's life experience, it doesn't seem that surprising. Everyone speculates that there may be another reason.

But with the attacks back and forth between the East China Sea and Wuyue, and the sword moving at home and abroad, Xiao Xueting's reputation has become more prosperous than that of her brother Xiao Chunhui.

Soon, Lei Jun saw this woman on Longhu Mountain.

The other party's appearance was exquisite and elegant, but she was wearing a military commander's robe. Even so, the other women on Longhu Mountain, except for Tang Xiaotang and Zhang Jingzhen, lost their luster.

The Queen is going to visit Longhu Mountain in person.

Xiao Xueting came over in advance to stand in front of her.

Yuan Mobai and Shangguan Ning received him together, accompanied by Lei Jun, Zhang Jingzhen, Lin Shan and Fang Jian.

After everyone was seated, the young female general sat upright and said, "Your Majesty is expected to go up the mountain in seven days."

Yuan Mobai smiled warmly and said calmly: "The whole mountain of our sect is ready to welcome the emperor."

Xiao Xueting: "That's great. I will stay on the mountain for the next few days and wait for the emperor with you. Please forgive me for disturbing you."

Yuan Mobai and Shangguan Ning both nodded: "No problem, General Xiao is too polite."

Next, Yuan Mobai accompanied more and left the scene mainly to Shangguan Ning.

Longhu Mountain has always been mainly responsible for Shangguan Ning in this regard.

After talking about the business, Xiao Xueting asked with concern: "Elder Shangguan, how is your health now?"

Shangguan Ning smiled: "Xueting, don't worry, although I still need to rest, I am fine. It's okay if I don't fight with others."

As the question and answer, the atmosphere became more relaxed.

Xiao Xueting said: "Longhu Mountain has encountered such a great turmoil. I hope everything will be fine in the future."

Shangguan Ning nodded: "Yes."

Xiao Xueting: "Excuse me for asking a question. Regarding Longhu Mountain's future..."

She was asking for the Queen.

Although Shangguan Ning had been a bridge to communicate, some things still needed to be confirmed in person.

Shangguan Ning looked at Yuan Mobai and said slowly: "Our sect will offer sacrifices to the ancestors of all generations and expel all the Li clan members headed by Li Song and Li Ziyang from the sect."

Xiao Xueting listened quietly.

In other words, this decision does not involve Li Hongyu and Li Zhengxuan.

Although the four great elders of the Li clan have all died, the Tianshi Mansion still treats them differently.

"Lanshan, I plan to go there later." Yuan Mobai said at this time.

Lei Jun and others listened quietly.

Lanshan is one of the branches of the Longhu Mountain ancestral temple. It is presided over by the Li family and can almost be regarded as a branch of the Li family outside Longhu Mountain and Xinzhou.

But now, adjustments are destined to be made.

Previously, the vitality of the mansion was seriously damaged. In order to seek stability, Yuan Mobai and others stayed in the Longhu Mountain ancestral temple first.

After the situation stabilizes, it is natural to contact and deal with the relevant matters of the branches and branches of the talisman sects in various places.

Lanshan is the first stop.

Yuan Mobai is not going to massacre, but the attitude of the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion must be made clear.

As for the remaining Li clan members, even if they flee at the first sign of trouble, their future life will not be easy.

Even the Li clan themselves know it well.

Compared with the Tianshi Mansion, they are now facing a greater threat:

Huang Tiandao.

The four great elders Li Hongyu, Li Song, Li Ziyang, and Li Zhengxuan all died beyond the expectations of many people.

The Tianshi Mansion will still have the action of cleaning up the house.

Even if the Tianshi Mansion does not move, Huang Tiandao will not let go of the remaining people of the Li family.

Although there seems to be factional opposition within Huang Tiandao at the moment, neither Qi Shuo's faction nor Zhao Zongjie's faction will miss the opportunity to beat the dog when it is down.

"Is there any possibility of the Taoist classics being leaked?" Xiao Xueting asked softly.

Shangguan Ning: "The last two volumes of "The True One Dao Sutra of the Righteous Dharma" cannot be put on paper.

The talisman has been sealed in the air through the Ten Thousand Laws Sect Altar.

The only thing to worry about is that the Tianshi robe is lost..."

The fundamental Dao classic of the Tianshi Mansion, "The True One Dao Sutra of the Righteous Dharma", has a total of seven volumes.

Under normal circumstances, the disciples who are ordained can only be given one or two volumes.

Only those who have passed the ordination can be given the third volume.

Those who have been promoted to the fifth level of the realm of heaven can be given the fourth volume.

Those who have been promoted to the sixth level of the realm of heaven can be given the fifth volume.

Only those who have been promoted to the seventh level of the realm of heaven can be given the sixth volume.

The Taoist scriptures passed down are sealed in the jade book, which is a disposable item and can only be used by one person once.

Although it can be explained orally, many of the Taoist essences in it may be lost during the retelling process.

When it comes to the sixth and seventh volumes, they are completely out of paper.

After Li Song, Li Ziyang and others all died, the rest of the Li family lacked the means to obtain the last two volumes of Taoist scriptures.

Unless they can find the Heavenly Master's Robe.

Even now on Longhu Mountain, although there are several high-level elders who can supervise from the side, if there are new seventh-level heaven cultivators, the regular process is to enter the Ten Thousand Laws Sect Altar to pass on the secrets of the sixth volume of Taoist scriptures.

In addition, there is only the Heavenly Master's Robe.

Even the Heavenly Master Seal only contains the Three Caves and Three Realms True Scripture, but not the Taoist essence of the True One Dao Sutra.

As for the outside world using the first five volumes of the True One Dao Sutra mastered by the Li family's children to deduce the last two volumes, it is basically impossible.

To put it bluntly, if it could be done, a similar situation would have already occurred when the Huangtian Dao split.

It is naturally inappropriate to pass on the orthodox teachings to outsiders, so the Tianshi Mansion still needs to clean up the sect after the situation is stabilized.

Fortunately, the Tianshi Mansion can seal the talisman scriptures of both basic and advanced spiritual talismans through the Wanfa Zongtan.

Although the Li clan members are also inherited cultivators of the talisman school, from now on, they can basically say goodbye to making talismans.

They are not like Huang Tiandao.

Huang Tiandao can be independent because there is more than one Taoist talisman school elder when he established his own sect.

At that time, an old man who rebelled against the Tianshi Mansion and participated in the creation of Huang Tiandao sacrificed himself, and with the cooperation of many secret treasures taken away when leaving Longhu Mountain, he was able to transform himself into a sect and open another sect outside the mountain gate.

In this way, it can withstand the remote sealing of the Tianshi Three Treasures and the Wanfa Zongtan, laying the foundation for Huang Tiandao to establish his own sect for many years.

Even so, Huang Tiandao also faces long-term worries.

In addition to maintaining the sacrifices from time to time to prevent the assimilation of the Ten Thousand Laws Sect Altar, the altar transformed by human body seems to have life and lifespan.

The founder of the Huangtian Dao was in his prime at that time.

But as time goes by, if he is still alive, he will gradually grow old.

And now, the Huangtian Sect Altar that he has transformed into will eventually grow old and die.

This temporary expedient measure cannot be compared with the real Ten Thousand Laws Sect Altar after all.

And the Li family does not even have the opportunity to worry about the future, the current situation can make them despair.

Not to mention that many precious natural materials and treasures were consumed when the Huangtian Sect Altar was first established, which are now extinct.

Even if all the auxiliary materials are complete, the Li family currently has no monks from the Upper Three Heavens Talisman Sect who can stand up and sacrifice themselves.

If you want to transform into a sect altar, it is not just anyone who can do it.

First, the Taoist Talisman Sect must have its own upper three heavens masters.

Second, this gentleman must be willing.

Where can I find the Li family?

If not, everyone would not be so sad that Li Song, Li Hongyu and the other four all died, which was unexpected and had a huge impact.

The young people of the Li family worked hard to strive to produce a few young upper three-day strongmen like the Xiao family outside Longwai?

Sorry, it still doesn't work.

Without their own sect altar, it is difficult to pass on the ordination of disciples, which is equivalent to cutting off the way for the lower three-day cultivators to the middle three-day.

Without their own sect altar, the middle three-day cultivators cannot open the gate of heaven and lead to the upper three-day.

The seventh level of the Taoist talisman school is called Tongtian.

How difficult is the road to Tongtian?

Even if there is a possibility of a miracle, let alone whether the Tianshi Mansion agrees or not, Huang Tiandao will be the first to disagree.

Therefore, Shangguan Ning said that if there is a chance, it is the Li family's good luck to get the Tianshi robe back first.

"The younger generation will also help to keep an eye out when they are out in the future." Xiao Xueting said.

Yuan Mobai and Shangguan Ning thanked him together.

The subsequent conversation between the two sides was more casual.

Lei Jun, Zhang Jingzhen and others also interjected from time to time.

Later, Shangguan Ning and Zhang Jingzhen invited Xiao Xueting to stay in the guest room.

Lei Jun returned to Gaogong Pavilion with Yuan Mobai.

"Chongyun, you don't seem to be so enthusiastic about dealing with the representatives of the Tang court?" Yuan Mobai asked in a gentle voice.

There were only the master and his disciple, so Lei Jun spoke without hesitation: "Master, you are right. I don't reject dealing with the Tang court imperial family, but I am not keen on it."

Yuan Mobai sat down: "Oh?"

Lei Jun: "The Tang court imperial family supports the major holy places including our sect to check and balance the power of the aristocratic families. Our sect has suffered a series of disasters and is seriously injured. We need to recuperate. We need to respond to the support of the Tang court imperial family, but..."

He smiled, but his smile was distant: "Looking from another direction, the Zhang family in the capital is also a wealthy family with blood descendants?"

Yuan Mobai also smiled: "There is still a difference."

Lei Jun nodded: "Rather than saying that the Zhang family is another aristocratic family outside the Five Surnames and Seven Famous Family, it is better to say that they are the world's number one noble family.

The history is not as long as the Five Surnames and Seven Famous Family, but if we only talk about one family, power and influence are very important. There is even more.

Zhang Taizu used to rule the world, so his strength and talent are naturally beyond doubt, but it is hard to say for his descendants who grew up in the palace since childhood.

Yes, under the way of the emperor, all the emperors of the Tang Dynasty were top masters, but that was the result of the world's power serving one or two people.

If the emperor loses his virtue, the people will lose their hearts and the country will lose its fortune. There will be new heroes to fight again and change dynasties, but the people have been abused again and again.

It is not just Zhang and Tang that are like this, the rise and fall of dynasties in the past are all like this. "

Lei Jun spread his hands: "Disciple is not against our faction's past and current cooperation with the Tang court, but in my eyes, there is a difference between the Zhang family in the capital and the five surnames and seven families, but it is limited. "

Yuan Mobai did not take it as an offense, but just smiled and stretched out his hand to point to his apprentice: "Chongyun, be careful with your words."

Lei Jun smiled and nodded.

He does not believe in the endless fun of fighting with others.

If possible, he hoped that no one would disturb him, so that he could practice and study magic quietly and wander in the mysterious world of Taoism.

However, some troubles really made him unable to hold back.

There were also people he could get along with among the famous families, but there were too many troubles.

If the situation in the imperial family of Tang Ting was similar, Lei Jun would also be unable to hold back.

It had to do with the other party being a trouble, not other identities.

Taoist Master Lei never took seriously the mentality of some people who only opposed the nobles but not the emperor.

Of course, the Queen has only been on the throne for a short time, and everything remains to be seen.

"Chongyun, what do you think of the position of Heavenly Master?" Yuan Mobai suddenly asked.

Lei Jun was a little surprised and looked at his master.

Yuan Mobai's smile remained unchanged and he was still warm.

Lei Jun said frankly: "I am a little interested but not much. It's mainly because such opportunities are rare, so I want to give it a try.

But if I can really sit in this position one day in the future, I will probably step down after sitting for a while.

I am more interested in practicing Taoism and appreciating the scenery of this world."

Yuan Mobai smiled: "I'm afraid many people will not agree with your mentality."

Lei Jun: "Just seek common ground while reserving differences."

"These four words can correspond to another four words..." Yuan Mobai smiled and sighed: "It's easy to know but difficult to do."

After following Yuan Mobai to practice and deal with things in Gaogong Pavilion for a period of time, Lei Jun returned to his residence at night and continued to practice.

After the usual breathing, breathing, and visualization, Lei Jun stood up and walked to the window.

Looking at the night sky, he pondered silently.

After a while, Lei Jun withdrew his gaze and spread his palms.

A magic talisman and a pill floated in the sky above his palm.

The magic talisman is the thousand-mile transmission talisman.

Danwan is a fine gold sword pill.

Lei Jun looked at the two objects and pondered.

In the previous underground battle in Sword Valley, he had used the Thousand Mile Transmission Note that could contact Li Xuan to determine the general location of the opponent.

Similar methods have their accidental nature.

Moreover, he also bullied Li Xuan and others without knowing it.

Yuanci Sword Pill is very powerful, but it also consumes a lot of energy.

Lei Jun thought about it and made further improvements.

The current focus is still on the issue of hit rate.

That is, aiming and positioning.

Thinking about related issues, Lei Jun did some experiments and worked until dawn.

The next day, Lin Shan came to visit and invited: "Junior Brother Lei, Senior Sister Zhang and Junior Brother Fang are discussing to hold a banquet together to entertain Master Xiao. I want to invite you to join us. What do you think?"

Before Lei Jun could answer, a ball of light suddenly flashed in his mind:

[Having become a new noble and the target of public criticism, good and bad fortunes depend on each other, and they make their own decisions about advancement and retreat. 】
