Chapter 429 428 The Real Opponent (First Update)
Chapter 429 428. The Real Opponent (First Update)
The Human Dao Kingdom has basically become history.
But it does not affect the task that Lei Jun assigned to Kang Ming and others:
Investigate the people and objects related to the ancient talisman sect.
For the other three people, this task may be a little difficult.
But for Kang Ming, who is in the modern Han world, it is a coincidence.
The lineage of the Han Longhu Mountain in this human world happens to be the inheritance of the ancient talisman sect.
Although the Han Longhu Mountain is now in seclusion as a whole, Kang Ming can collect and organize various historical information about the Han Longhu Mountain lineage circulated in this human world, and even related objects.
Just like the Great Tang Tianshi Mansion is the holy place of the Tang human talisman sect, the various branches are inherited, branched out, and have a long history.
The Great Han Longhu Mountain was previously the first holy place of the righteous way of the Great Han Dynasty. In the modern Han world, in the current Han Dynasty, the Taoist talisman sect is naturally prosperous, and there are many branches and veins in various places.
Although the ancestral temple of the Dragon and Tiger Mountain of the Han Dynasty was completely submerged in the Taiqing Du Ren Dongtian, it was unable to take away the branch inheritances scattered all over the world.
Kang Ming could naturally search for it secretly.
In fact, because the ancestral temple of the holy land disappeared, it had a great impact on the inheritance of other Taoist talisman sects in the Han people today.
The step of granting the talisman may block many people.
It has been nearly ten years since the Han Dynasty went into seclusion in the Dragon and Tiger Mountain.
If this continues, the Taoist talisman sect will inevitably decline in this world.
There were discussions within the branches of various sects.
Pan Hailin reappeared in the world and reached the realm of the Ninth Heaven Mahayana, which ignited their hope.
Huang Tiandao also took the opportunity to expand his influence in secret.
The Taoist Danding Sect and the Refining Sect, which were previously weaker than the talisman sect, also rose further.
The entire Han Dynasty was in chaos.
Lei Jun calmly watched the various messages conveyed by Kang Ming.
After thinking carefully, he added new requirements to Kang Ming, Meng Shaojie, Nie Fang, and Zhou Pu.
In addition to the ancient talisman sect, if there is relevant information or personnel from the old Tiangong, it also counts.
Lei Jun's mind left the dark side of the heavenly book, and he sat in the Tianshi Hall with a dim look, continuing to concentrate on thinking.
Later, Yuan Mobai came to the hall and talked with Lei Jun about some daily affairs in the mansion. Lei Jun then told his mentor about the latest situation in the Han world.
"The Han Dynasty will not make trouble to target the Xumi Treasure Department at present, but most people, especially the Han Emperor and the Han Crown Prince, will not trust the Xumi Treasure Department. They are more likely to keep a distance and secretly guard against it."
Yuan Mobai pondered: "It is the inheritance of Kongsang Tianjing and the inheritance of Dakong Temple that have gained a chance to breathe."
Lei Jun nodded lightly.
Yuan Mobai asked, "How is the injury of the monk Juexiang of Dakong Temple?"
The person who injured the monk Juexiang was Lei Jun, who was sitting opposite him.
Lei Jun: "The pursuit by the Han Dynasty before made him more injured. Although he has a chance to breathe now, it is not so easy for him to recover. Normally, this will directly affect his progress in the next impact on the level of perfection of the Ninth Heaven."
Monk Juexiang is also talented and powerful, and he has been making great progress before.
This setback may interrupt his upward momentum, which may be a big deal or a small deal.
Whether it is Dakong Temple itself or Kongsang Tianjing Great Witch has other ways, if Monk Juexiang can heal his injuries as soon as possible and start again, it will be fine.
But if his upward momentum is really interrupted, then when he can cultivate to the perfection of the fifth level of the Ninth Heaven, there will be a big question mark.
Positive examples, such as Shen Qubing, who was injured in the Earth Sea, was taken care of by Empress Zhang Wantong. Although he took some time to recover, he still quickly broke through to the eighth heaven realm.
Empress Zhang Wantong was also seriously injured in the previous battle in Yunzhou, but after recovering from the injury, it did not affect her momentum to impact the ninth heaven again. It was only because of her personal wishes that she stayed in the human world.
Otherwise, she would have ascended to heaven earlier than the Golden Khan Angqinfu.
In the human world, the Northern Black Emperor Huang Xuanpu was also the same. Although he suffered repeated setbacks earlier, he still successfully regrouped and made further progress, from the four qi to the origin, to the perfect level of the five qi.
Negative examples are also in the human world.
The Western White Emperor Han Qingtao was one of those whose upward momentum was continuously interrupted.
First, he failed to compete for the Taiyi Xiantian Tower and the Heavenly Master Seal in the human world of the Great Tang Dynasty, and was injured by Tang Xiaotang.
After Xu Yuanzhen revealed his identity, Han Qingtao was forced to wander around in the Ming Dynasty.
Han Qingtao herself was not discouraged and had never been seriously injured, but it still affected her progress in cultivation, so that she was stuck in the fourth level of the Ninth Heaven for a long time.
The Southern Red Emperor Li Hang was in a similar situation, except that the main enemy Li Hang faced was the Golden Khanate.
"The Kongsang Tianjing lineage has been preparing for a long time. Since they have included the Dakong Temple in their plan, I think they will not sit idly by and watch Monk Juexiang and the Dakong Temple fail." Yuan Mobai said.
"My disciple feels the same way."
Lei Jun: "Speaking of which, another person may have a greater chance of reaching the fifth level of perfection in the Ninth Heaven..."
Yuan Mobai's eyes flashed: "Ji Daocheng?"
Lei Jun nodded gently: "The Han Longhu Mountain lineage retreated to Taiqing Duren Cave Heaven. Although it seems frustrated, it can also be said to be an active choice. Ji Daocheng may not have no chance if he practices meditation."
Yuan Mobai: "The void portal leading to the present Han world in Datong is closed. Let's see if they will take the next step."
Lei Jun: "It just looks closed."
The master and the apprentice smiled at each other.
Lei Jun spread out his palm, and a jade pendant appeared in his palm, which came from the Dongyang Mountain Man in the past.
On the Han Dynasty side, the Langya Wang family has been unable to find the Dongyang Branch Courtyard because Lei Jun made special arrangements at the branch court, forming an additional barrier.
Doing the opposite may also become a new channel.
…………………
Among the Han people today.
In the Han Dynasty, the mainstream voice is still to vigorously eliminate the evil monks of Dakong Temple who retreated to the southern wilderness, as well as the people in the witch sect who may have colluded with them.
But because of the previous changes in Xumi and Datong, everyone is now just loud on the surface, but restrained in actual actions.
Most people began to wait and see the situation, while quietly accumulating themselves.
In the late autumn of this year, the Lin Clan of Jiangzhou in the Han Dynasty reported good news:
The clan leader Lin Xiaoyi successfully made a further step and cultivated to the ninth level of Confucian classics.
The Han Dynasty has added a new great scholar who pacifies the world.
Congratulations came from all directions inside and outside the court.
After the gifts, some guests stayed and did not leave immediately.
Lin Xiaoyi personally entertained them.
Next, it was time for business.
"You two have come from afar, I apologize for my poor hospitality."
There were only three people in the quiet room, and Lin Xiaoyi, who was sitting on the main seat, personally greeted the two guests to sit down.
Ye Zhao, the head of the Ye clan in Qingzhou, the Han Dynasty.
Ye Chunyue, the head of the Ye clan in Jinzhou, the Han Dynasty.
The three of them did not exchange too many pleasantries, and all looked solemn and solemn.
"Although Datong is closed, the threat from the Tang Dynasty has temporarily subsided, but in the long run, it is still difficult to be optimistic."
Lin Xiaoyi said softly: "The current situation and the general trend have changed. In just a few years, it may be a sea change. The situation is still worrying."
Ye Zhao and Ye Chunyue both nodded slightly, and they also had the same feeling.
"As the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surges, people in the fairyland return to the world one after another. Although it seems that there are few immortals coming to the world at present, I think the situation will get worse and worse in the future." Ye Chunyue, who was wearing a palace dress, said.
Lin Xiaoyi: "It seems that there may be ancient immortals in the witch sect, the Taoist sect, and the Buddhist sect. As for the warriors, there are also people in other worlds who have ascended to the Nine Heavens first. Only scholars like us have never seen the trace of the Confucian saints."
Ye Zhao and Ye Chunyue were silent after hearing this.
Not to mention that Lin Xiaoyi has just cultivated to the realm of pacifying the world, although Ye Zhao has been famous for a long time, he has not yet cultivated to the perfect realm of the Nine Heavens of Confucianism with all five classics.
To be precise, among the current aristocratic families of the Han Dynasty, there is no great Confucian scholar who has perfected the fifth level of the Nine Heavens.
A little closer, it was Lin Zheng, the leader of the Datong Lin Clan, who once reached this realm.
But let's not say that he has passed away long ago.
Even if Lin Zheng is still alive and rising rapidly, it is still unknown how long it will take for him to truly ascend to the top of the sky.
If there is a Confucian master in the Han Dynasty who has the hope of reaching the ninth heaven in a short period of time, there are only the Han prince Xiang Jing and the Dongyang mountain man Wang Xu.
Among them, Wang Xu claimed that he had not fully recovered from his injuries and the situation was unknown.
Moreover, it was difficult for Ye Zhao, Lin Xiaoyi and others to list each other as fellow travelers and pin their hopes on each other.
Although Han prince Xiang Jing is wiser than Han emperor Xiang Chengyuan, if he really ascends to the ninth heaven, it is also difficult to say that it is a blessing for the famous families of the Han Dynasty.
"If the Confucian saints who existed before the catastrophe are still alive, then..."
Lin Xiaoyi said slowly: "There is no need to mention Datong. According to the news from the Tang Dynasty, there is no hope for Guizang, so now there is only... Lianshan."
He looked up at Ye Zhao, the head of the Ye clan in Qingzhou, and Ye Chunyue, the head of the Ye clan in Jinzhou.
According to legend, before the Eastern and Western Ye clans separated, the Ye clan once ruled Lianshan.
However, according to the information that was circulated later, the Ye clan finally passed by Lianshan.
But only the people of the Ye clan know the inside story...
"Our clan did rule Lianshan, but we were forced to withdraw from it." Ye Zhao shook his head gently: "At least as far as I know, it is true."
Ye Chunyue on the side also nodded slowly.
She met Lin Xiaoyi's gaze and said, "We have no intention of deceiving. We hope more than anyone else in the world that our ancestors are still alive in Lianshan."
Lin Xiaoyi said softly, "I trust what you two say, but in the current situation, even if there is some hope, the first place will be Lianshan."
Ye Zhao: "We have been looking for Lianshan carefully over the years, but unfortunately there is still no clue for the time being."
Lin Xiaoyi: "I understand your concerns. At this moment, we should be cautious about this matter, so as not to make wedding clothes for others."
After a little hesitation, he said, "I specially ask you two to stay today. In addition to the matter of Lianshan, Lin has another matter to discuss."
Ye Zhao and Ye Chunyue looked at each other.
Lin Xiaoyi's voice was a little ethereal: "Some time ago, our clan found a few clues about... a branch of our clan in another human world."
"Oh?" Ye Zhao and Ye Chunyue were refreshed when they heard this.
The fate of the five surnames and seven families in the human world of the Tang Dynasty is obvious.
According to various news from the Tang Dynasty, the Confucian families in the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty have all become deserted and lost in the dust of history.
Ye Zhao, Ye Chunyue and others in the Han Dynasty often feel isolated and helpless, as if they can already see their own future.
At this time, Lin Xiaoyi suddenly mentioned that there might be a branch of the Jiangzhou Lin clan in another world, which immediately made the two clan leaders of the East and West Ye clans feel excited.
Although the existence of the Jiangzhou Lin Clan does not mean that the East and West Ye clans also exist in that human world, it still gives hope to Ye Zhao and Ye Chunyue.
"There is not much news at present." Lin Xiaoyi said: "I only know that the human dynasty there is called Jin."
Ye Zhao nodded slightly: "It is a human world that I have never heard of before."
Ye Chunyue looked at Lin Xiaoyi, hesitant to speak.
Lin Xiaoyi seemed to know what the other party was worried about: "Don't worry, Lin will take this as the most important thing at present, and strengthen communication and contact with them. Even if there is a possibility that the small clan will merge with the big clan at that time, it will not hesitate to move forward."
Ye Chunyue sighed: "The current situation will only be more dangerous than we expected.
The lessons of the Tang Dynasty and Datong, we must pay attention to it!"
Lin Xiaoyi and Ye Zhao both nodded slightly.
Through the news from the Tang Dynasty and Xiao Jing and others from Datong, it is not difficult for them to know that there was an opportunity to establish contact between the famous families of the Tang Dynasty and the prominent families of Datong.
But in the end, due to various concerns, the opportunity was missed in vain.
If the five families of Datong could enter the Tang Dynasty sooner, it would not necessarily change the outcome, but the development of many things might be completely different.
In fact, the two sides had already started contacting each other on the eve of the Battle of Luoyang in the Tang Dynasty.
But unfortunately, it was too late.
Both of them were defeated by the Tang Dynasty court and the sect forces.
If, with Datong as a link, the five surnames and seven families in the world could unite as a whole, the result might be different.
However, let alone the famous families of the Tang Dynasty and the five families of Datong, even the famous families of the Han Dynasty had contact with Datong before. Were they not full of concerns and fearful of each other?
It was just that the rapid development and changes of the situation forced them to make changes.
Lin Xiaoyi and others did not doubt that it might be too late to make changes at the moment.
But compared to waiting for death, it is better to try their best.
At present, any opportunity should be grasped as much as possible.
Even if we cannot change the final trend of the times, we have the opportunity to change the fate of a specific person or some people.

Kunlun.
In the Taoist Palace of the Fairyland, Zhou Tian Patriarch, who looks like a middle-aged man, lies on his side in front of the alchemy furnace.
A Taoist who looks like a young man stepped into the Taoist Palace at this time and saluted Zhou Tian Patriarch: "Master."
His name is Mu Weizi, but he is not a descendant of Longhu Mountain in the Han Dynasty. He is a disciple of Zhou Tian Patriarch who was accepted in Kunlun a few years ago. He is still young.
"Congratulations, Master. Datong is closed, and the Tang Dynasty and the Han Dynasty are temporarily closed. In the future, when the Han Dynasty revolts, there will be less noise interference." Mu Weizi said.
Zhou Tian Patriarch sat up and looked at the alchemy furnace: "It still depends on the actions of the people in the Kongsang Witch Sect."
He is also looking for a way to descend to the human world.
Kongsang Witch King's actions are opportunities.
An opportunity to take the place of a dead person.
Kongsang Witch King is the real opponent he is going to plan next.
The less noise from other places, the better.
If he could enter and leave the human world freely, he could unify the talisman sects from all directions.
