Chapter 659: Nine Meridians of Immortality

And going up, for ordinary inner disciples, perhaps it is the functional agencies such as the Law Enforcement Hall, the Internal Affairs Hall, and the Merit Hall that are in charge of the inner and outer gates.

These functional agencies are equivalent to the secular court center, responsible for maintaining the operation of the huge Changsheng Sect.

If in the secular world, this kind of authoritative core center must occupy the absolute dominant power and control everything of the entire force.

But in the world of cultivating immortals, in this world where great power is concentrated in itself, this kind of core center, unless it has absolute great power itself, otherwise, the so-called core center is only relative to the vast majority of ordinary Changsheng Sect disciples.

Judging from the information in these files, this so-called core center should be just a handy tool for the higher-level existence of Changsheng Sect, nothing more.

Above the inner disciples of Changsheng Sect, there are personal disciples. The so-called personal disciples refer to... the Nine Veins of Changsheng!

Zhenyu, Kuizhen, Daoding, Tianji, Tianfu, Shenkui, Hehuan, Yin Gui, Huayao

According to this volume, the Nine Veins of Longevity began with the nine Yuanying masters when the Changsheng Sect was established. As the long years of inheritance and evolution have passed down, the Nine Veins of Longevity have almost become a symbol of the Changsheng Sect.

For the millions of disciples of the Changsheng Sect, the Nine Veins of Longevity are where everyone yearns for the immortal palace.

Each of the nine veins and nine paths has a Yuanying master in charge, and each has its own immortal inheritance.

The Zhenyu Vein cultivates the blood and qi method and is good at the physical body. Because the physical technique does not require high aptitude and understanding, the Zhenyu Vein is also the one with the largest number of disciples among the nine veins.

The current Zhenyu Vein master directly blasted a Li family ancestor with a pair of iron fists in the battle of Nanshan.

The Peeping Truth Vein cultivates the true meaning of the method. The sword-wielding Yuanying Xu Lingtian, who is dominating the current immortal world, is the current Peeping Truth Vein master.

However, the true meaning of the art obviously requires a lot of talent and understanding.

Therefore, since the establishment of the Guaizhen lineage, it has almost always been in a state of decline. In fact, in the tens of thousands of years of inheritance, it has almost been cut off more than once.

Even though the sword-wielding Yuanying is now dominating the world of immortal cultivation, the Guaizhen lineage is also in a state of decline.

In addition to Xu Changqing, the true disciple of the Guaizhen lineage, there is only one disciple who is still at the foundation-building stage. Of course, although the inheritance is almost withered, it obviously does not hinder the strength of the Guaizhen lineage.

Unparalleled in attack and invincibility at the same level, these are not empty names, but a truth that countless cultivators have practiced with their lives.

Moreover, the Guaizhen lineage of the Changsheng Sect is now known as the most prosperous era in the Changsheng Sect in ten thousand years.

In addition to Xu Lingtian, the sword-wielding Yuanying, the current Changsheng Sect Master Li Changqing is the senior brother of Xu Lingtian, the sword-wielding Yuanying. He is also a true sword-wielding cultivator, and his cultivation level has reached the middle stage of the Yuanying five hundred years ago.

However, in the past few hundred years, no one has seen this Changsheng Sect Master take action, and no one knows how good his cultivation level is.

In the world of immortal cultivation, there are many rumors about the cultivation level of this Changsheng Sect Master.

There are also many legends that he has already achieved the Yuanying Great Cultivator.

Whether it is true or not is obviously not something that can be recorded in these files, let alone known by outsiders.

And the four veins of Dao Ding, Tian Ji, Tian Fu, and Shen Kui can also be collectively referred to as the Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation.

The Dao Ding vein focuses on the Dao of Danqi, and the derived art of Lingzhi.

The Tian Ji vein is good at the Dao of formation.

The Tianfu lineage is good at the art of talismans, and even derived the unique talisman cultivation art of Changsheng Sect.

The branding inscription system that he was quite amazed at in the past has formed a prestigious inheritance in the Tianfu lineage of Changsheng Sect.

Using talismans to transform talismans into talisman seeds, and using runes to brand the flesh and soul, thus forming a unique talisman cultivation system that cultivates both the body and the talisman art.

The Shenkui lineage, as the name suggests, is naturally the way of puppets. All the puppet creations that Changsheng Sect conquered are also from the Shenkui lineage.

These four lines are almost the evergreen trees of Changsheng Sect. The other lines often have ups and downs, but only these four lines are prosperous and growing.

And the Hehuan lineage, that is, the art of taking yin to replenish yang and enchanting, is also famous for the yin is strong and the yang is weak within the Changsheng Sect.

For example, the eight hundred maids in his Zhenchuan Palace were carefully selected and specially trained by the Hehuan lineage from the outer disciples of the Changsheng Sect.

As the name suggests, the lineage of transformation into a demon is the way of blood. However, with the departure of the five major clans from the Changsheng Sect, the lineage of transformation into a demon is almost the most seriously damaged.

After all, the core of the way of blood lies in monsters, and monsters have almost disappeared in the inland of Da Chu.

The only place where monsters emerge in an endless stream in the Da Chu region is the endless sea, and the place where blood cultivation is most popular is also in the sea.

As for the Hanhai, the southern border is the Hanhai Chen family. Although the Hanhai Chen family is almost dead in name now, the Hanhai League, which has emerged as a new force, is obviously impossible to be under the rule of the Changsheng Sect in the short term, even if there is a reason behind the Changsheng Sect’s behind-the-scenes planning.

The icy land in the northeast is still a major concern for the Changsheng Sect. The Righteous Alliance, with the Changping Zhao family as its core, still holds high the banner of opposing the Changsheng Sect.

On the Yunlan front, the Changsheng Sect still has difficulty moving forward.

With the internal division of Changsheng Sect, the current Huayao lineage is almost dead in name only.

Also almost dead in name only is the Yin Gui lineage.

The Yin Gui lineage, in layman's terms, is what is commonly known as the crooked ways in the world of cultivating immortals.

Ghost cultivation, corpse refining, poisonous insects...

And these crooked ways are most prevalent in the southwest and the Nanshan Li family.

In the southwest, the art of poisonous insects is prevalent, and the Langya Chen family is deeply rooted. The Nanshan Li family is good at practicing corpses with ghosts.

The original Yin Gui lineage was almost the base camp of these two major families. The internal strife and separation naturally led to the Yin Gui lineage being almost dead in name only.

Of course, the rest of the Changsheng Sect, except for the Kuizhen lineage, were more or less affected by this internal strife and separation.

However, only the Yin Gui and Huayao lines were affected the most, and even reached the point of being completely dead in name only.

But no matter what, the Nine Veins of Longevity are still the nine pillars of the Longevity Sect, supporting the huge Changsheng Sect.

For countless Changsheng Sect disciples, entering the Nine Veins and becoming a direct disciple means entering the core of the Changsheng Sect.

It also means that the core inheritance of the Changsheng Sect and the vast resources that rule the territory of Da Chu are all open to the door.

Whether it is status or treatment, there must be a huge difference.

Above the direct disciple, it is naturally the position of the Nine True Transmissions of Longevity.

According to convention, the Nine Veins of Longevity are basically one lineage and one true transmission, but as the saying goes, feng shui turns, even a strong lineage like the Kuzhen lineage will also decline.

Therefore, this convention is often just a convention, just like before the internal strife of the Changsheng Sect, the Yin Gui and Hua Yao veins even occupied four true transmissions.

Among the nine true transmissions of the Changsheng Sect, the five major families even occupied seven!

As the internal strife and betrayal of the Changsheng Sect began, the nine positions of the true disciples naturally changed with the general trend.

Today, the three lines of the Changsheng Nine Veins, Huayao, Yin Gui, and Shenkui, all have no true disciples.

The nine true disciples are three from the Zhenyu Vein, Dao Ding, Tianji, Tianfu, and Hehuan.

As for the Kuizhen Vein...even though it is known to be the most powerful in ten thousand years, this kind of power is obviously only the power of the top power.

The decline of the Kuizhen Vein is also a well-known fact. Even if it can fight for more positions of true disciples, there are not enough disciples to occupy the positions of true disciples.

Before, the Kuizhen Vein only had Xu Changqing as a true disciple.

However, perhaps because of his appearance, the position of the true disciple that was originally vacant due to the internal strife was taken by the Kuizhen Vein before it could welcome a new owner.

Then, there was the unprecedented ceremony of the canonization of the true disciples, and there was the turmoil today.

Obviously, although he is famous in the world of immortal cultivation for his unique skills in alchemy and weapons, in Changsheng Sect, Chu Mu is a disciple of the Kuizhen lineage and also a true disciple of the Kuizhen lineage.

"It seems... not bad."

Thinking, Chu Mu couldn't help but chuckle.

Being a casual cultivator means being free and unrestrained.

If you join a sect, unless you are at the top, you are doomed to be bound and restricted.

But his true disciple belongs to the Kuizhen lineage.

And the cultivators of the Kuizhen lineage...

Xu Changqing, and the cultivator in the foundation-building stage, plus Chu Mu, there are only three disciples in total, not even enough to make up the number of five fingers.

And the pillars of the Kuizhen lineage, whether it is the sword-wielding Yuanying Xu Lingtian or the Changsheng Sect Master Li Changqing, whether it is within the Changsheng Sect or looking at the entire immortal cultivation world, they are undoubtedly the top existences!

What this coexistence of strength and decline means is self-evident.

His entry into the Changsheng Sect, into this lineage of peeping the truth, the pros and cons, perhaps it is really an uncertain thing.

"I hope so..."

Chu Mu shook his head and sighed. Now, even though he is a person that most cultivators need to look up to, an almost dreamlike existence, compared to the behemoth of the Changsheng Sect, he is not much different from the low-level cultivators at the bottom.

After a deeper understanding, it is obviously not difficult to see that this behemoth is by no means as simple as he saw when he was a low-level cultivator.

Just like the official reports published by Changsheng Sect in Yuhuang Valley, according to the above, Changsheng Sect, which had not experienced internal strife, had only dozens of Jindan Zhenren, including several major families, and Yuanying Great Powers were even fewer...

But in the internal strife in these years, the number of Jindan Zhenren who died has undoubtedly exceeded dozens, and the number of Yuanying Great Powers who died in these successive wars has also exceeded ten fingers.

In this world of immortal cultivation, any force that appears on the surface is often only willing to be seen by the world.

What is not willing to be known by the world is always hidden in the deepest.

The Changsheng Sect is naturally the same.

Even if it is described in these few volumes, it is already unfathomable and unfathomable for ordinary people to imagine, let alone the secrets that he has not yet discovered when he first arrived.

Being in it, it is destined that it will not be as free as when he was a casual cultivator...
