Nanfang County, Bailu Mountain.

A stream runs through the mountain.

On both sides of the stream, along the mountain road, there are buildings standing one after another. There are bamboo houses, school fields, academy gatehouses, and famous shrines. They are well-organized, elegant and indifferent.

This is Bailu Academy.

It is famous all over the world and a holy place for scholars.

An old man was sitting in the ritual hall, wearing a white Confucian robe, with a gray hair bun and three wrinkles on his forehead.

A student below respectfully handed over tea: "Meng Sheng, this is the new Maojian from the prefect's office."

When the tea cover is lifted, the aroma is overflowing.

The sheriff's mansion has a heart, and this tea is just his little hobby.

The old man took a sip lightly.

A hint of envy flashed in the student's eyes, but he still stood respectfully, not daring to show the slightest bit.

This is one of the only two surviving quasi-sages in Bailu Academy, a pillar of Confucianism in the Jin Dynasty, and the author of "Two Strategies for Heaven and Man", which is well-known all over the world.

At the same time, he is also a strong man in the Faxiang Realm who overwhelms Nanfang County.

He advocated dismissing hundreds of schools and respecting Confucianism alone.

In the entire Jin Dynasty, the only one who could stabilize him was Wang Haoran, a Confucian sage from the Dongming Academy in Kyoto.

"I heard that Jing Sheng left the customs and went to Dongling County?"

Meng Xueyuan put down the teacup and asked.

The student heard Meng Sheng's question, and quickly replied respectfully: "Yes, Jing Sheng received a message from the Wang family of Dongling County, saying that Tai Xuzi from the Lingshu Temple appeared in the world. He didn't know why, so he went straight there. "

"Tai Xuzi..."

Meng Xueyuan frowned slightly.

This name is so familiar, even...unforgettable!

Others don't know, but how could he not know who Taixuzi is?

The name of Meng Sheng spread all over the world, what a beauty.

The only stain in his life is that he was defeated by a wild Taoist named "Taixuzi" two years ago!

If Saint Haoran hadn't ordered the various academies to forcibly suppress this scandal, the nine great Confucians would have been laughed at by the world.

They will no longer have the face to sit firmly in this quasi-sacred position.

"Meng Sheng, do you know this Taixuzi?"

Seeing his strange expression, the student asked.

Meng Xueyuan glanced at him: "Yan Wuchang, I heard that you are the son of the Yan family in Nanshan County. In order to let you enter the academy, did you do a lot?"

Yan Wuchang panicked instantly.

Did you say something wrong?

He knelt down directly on the ground, and hurriedly said: "To Meng Sheng, the students admire the Confucian knowledge of self-cultivation and world governance. San Minza!"

Some words can be said to be sincere and sincere, and the world can learn from them.

He is well aware of the difficulty of studying, and the Yan family in Nanshan County spent a lot of money to send him to school, and he has the opportunity to be close to the quasi-sage of the academy.

If he offended Meng Sheng at this time and was sent back home, Yan Wuchang couldn't imagine what kind of family rules he would be subjected to.

He was also ashamed to face his parents and uncles who placed high hopes on him.

Thinking of this, his cold sweat trickled down.

"Hmph, seek the end of the Tao, and get it from righteousness. If you want to do something, you should seek the end from the sky, not pursue it for profit. Don't give up the root and chase the end."

Meng Xueyuan reprimanded, "Go back and copy "Two Strategies for Man and Heaven" a hundred times!"

Yan Wuchang was overjoyed, and replied: "Yes, student, thank you Mengsheng for teaching!"

However, at this moment, the two candles standing above the hall suddenly shook violently, and one of them went out with a "poof".

The faces of the two changed drastically in an instant!

"The lamp... the holy soul lamp is off..."

Yan Wuchang was even more frightened than before, and said in a trembling voice.

Meng Xueyuan's face sank like water, and he shouted: "Impossible! How could Jingsheng's lamp go out!"

Snapped--

The good Xinshan Maojian was knocked to the ground by him by mistake.

However, he is not in the mood to worry about such a trivial matter.

The reason why the Temple of Rites is called "the Temple of Rites" lies in the word "holy".

Inside, the sages and Confucian saints of the past dynasties are enshrined.

At the same time, every great Confucian will light a soul lamp in the hall when he becomes a quasi-sage.

When the light is on, it represents the prosperity of Confucianism.

Shine the line of Confucianism.

When the light goes out, it means that the sage, quasi-sage or Confucian saint is dead.

The Holy Soul Lamp just now belongs to the Quasi-Saint King Jinglong of Bailu Academy!

And the remaining one belongs to him.

"Could it be... Is it Tai Xuzi? Impossible... He is just a wild Taoist priest, except for sharp teeth and sharp mouth, what can he do!"

Meng Xueyuan whispered.

He couldn't imagine how Wang Jinglong died in Dongling County as soon as he left the customs.

The quasi-sage of Confucianism, with such a high status, is now like a firefly, which only lights up for a short moment.

"Meng...Meng Sheng..."

Yan Wuchang's face turned pale with fright, and he felt extremely regretful in his heart.

Why do I have such a cheap hand, I received a hundred taels of silver from the Sheriff's Mansion, and I handed them a letter for them.

If it wasn't for this incident, he wouldn't have encountered so much trouble at all.

Meng Xueyuan gave him a cold look: "Don't reveal anything about today's affairs."

"Yes, yes, the students understand!"

Yan Wuchang hastily responded submissively.

He felt chills down his spine, knowing that if he didn't keep it a secret, he would have to be kept a secret.

"Go, inform Dongming Academy that the old man wants to pay homage to Saint Haoran!"

Meng Xueyuan said abruptly, "Forget it, the old man will personally interrogate. Yan Wuchang, you go and pack your things, and go to the capital with the old man!"

Yan Wuchang's heart skipped a beat.

Meng Sheng actually rolls the roll in person and asks him to accompany him to Dongming Academy in Kyoto?

Moreover, I still went to see the saint Haoran!

"This... Wealth and wealth are sought in danger, fight hard!"

He made a decision in an instant, and replied, "Students obey!"

The two hurried out of the ceremony hall, and passed on an order to close the door and seal the hall from now on.

The sky over Nanfang County is full of wind and clouds.

It's like blowing to Kyoto, blowing to the entire Jin Dynasty.

...

Tangling County, do not return to the mountain.

"Hey, a message from the Taiyi Immortal Sect?"

As soon as the light from the sky stopped, it fell on the nearby mountain peak. It turned out to be a mentally handicapped Zen master who escaped from Zhuoguang Mountain.

"What kind of good things can these old-fashioned old men come to me..."

He frowned and checked the contents.

Although Xuankong Temple and Taiyi Immortal Sect belong to the three sects of the seventeen sects, their relationship is not harmonious.

The reason is that with one Buddha and one together, it is naturally unpleasant to get along. "There seems to be a change in the Hehuan sect. There is no one in the three peaks, only the disciples gathered on the three Yin peaks?"

"The Taoist priests of the Hehuan Sect and the Lingshu Temple are entangled, and one of them seems to be the Qing Hui that is widely rumored in Nanling City..."

"There is also a Taoist priest named Taixuzi..."

After the mentally handicapped Zen master read it, he was delighted.

"It turns out that the Taoist priest of the Lingshu Temple is not on Zhuoguang Mountain, so it would be best!"

He thought that Li Daoyi and Lin Xun'er were sitting in Lingxi Town, so he couldn't please him alone.

Now the news of Taiyi Immortal Sect came just in time.

"Hehe, the poor monk will change his way to the Four Sacred Mountains and take down Taixuzi of Lingshu Temple and Taoist Qinghui together!"

The mentally handicapped Zen master had a plan in mind, and turned into a light and flew up.

"It's just that what is the purpose of this Supreme One Immortal Sect's summons? Could it be that they want me to fight against Hehuanzong and Lingshu Temple?"

As he escaped, he thought about it.

"The competition between Buddhism and Taoism has become a fixed trend now. This Taiyi Immortal Sect belongs to the Taoist Sect, and they wear the same pants as the Lingshu Temple. I am afraid there is fraud in it. Poor monks should be more careful."

The mentally handicapped Zen master thought carefully, and immediately used the Xuankong Temple's sound transmission technique.

"Uncle Puhong seems to be traveling in Beiyou County. If I invite him to come from the north and meet at the Four Sacred Mountains, the two sides will attack... Even if this Ziyang old man has some tricks, he will definitely not be my opponent!"

His heart quickly calmed down.

This wave is stable.

...

On Taiyin Peak, in the clouds.

"Master, why didn't you report the tragic death of Wang Jinglong to Xuankong Temple?"

The young Taoist Hongjing asked suspiciously.

Immediately, Master Ziyang glanced at him: "Hongjing, you are still young, and you don't know that there are disputes about Dao in this world."

"My Taiyi Immortal Sect and Xuankong Temple are in harmony on the surface. We fight against demons and defend Dao together. We even formed an alliance. We will advance and retreat together against the Jin Dynasty and the forces of the world, but there is fierce competition in this interior!"

"You said that under the same sky, do the people in this dynasty worship Buddha or follow Taoism?"

He rolled up his whisk and looked far away.

Hongjing was taken aback, aren't we all well-known and upright?

He grew up in the sect since he was a child, so he didn't think about the twists and turns of the world's affairs. It was only when he went down the mountain that he saw all kinds of intrigue.

"It turns out that there is still competition between our Taiyi Immortal Sect and the Xuankong Temple..."

He murmured, and asked: "So, Master, you didn't tell Xuankong Temple Wang Jinglong about it, just to lead them to fight to the detriment of both?"

Master Ziyang stroked his beard and smiled: "That's right, Hongjing, you have roots of wisdom."

He turned and looked down at the mountains below.

"However, the monks in the Xuankong Temple are not fools. I'm afraid they will make other preparations and even call for help."

Master Ziyang said leisurely, "You must remember that our duty is to investigate, summon and observe the battle."

"No matter what happens below, we can't leave this floating cloud barrier. Let's sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and wait and see what happens!"

He was determined to be unparalleled in his heart, and had already arranged things properly.

As for the Lingshu Temple and the Taiyi Immortal Sect, they belong to the same Taoist sect?

I'm sorry, but I have to admit that you are a Taoist.

Besides, even if they belong to the same Taoist sect, don't you know that the most fierce competition in this world is often a family?

How many brothers fight against each other in this world, father and son fight each other, beauties are vicious, uncles and nephews rise up...

Master Ziyang shook his head and sighed: "Ordinary world is like a dream, only the eternal immortality is the pursuit of my generation."

For this, no expense was spared!

...

Taiyin Peak, Feixian Temple.

After discussing with each other, Qu Feiyan and Ruan Xiu arranged the things arranged by Zhang Ming in an orderly manner.

Among them, there are two matters that need to be handled by Qu Feiyan herself. She also plans to pack her bags and go out to investigate tomorrow.

For other things, it mainly depends on Qingyu.

"Elder Qu, since the second floor of the Hehuan Cave is the sleeping place of the founder of the Hehuan Sect, what is on the third floor?"

Zhang Ming sat in the hall, pondering.

Qu Feiyan shook her head and said, "Let's not talk about the third floor, even the second floor, and no one has been there for more than 300 years. Daoist Qing Hui, if you want to investigate clearly, I will accompany you to go there again." trip?"

Zhang Ming nodded: "Alright."

He checked his task status, but nothing changed.

He always felt that there was something tricky in his mission information.

If he hadn't been persistent in exploring the Hehuan Cave, he probably wouldn't have encountered the retreating Mozong elders and the sleeping four-headed patriarch.

They are also considered men, and killing them is consistent with the mission objective.

"I just don't know if there will be..."

Zhang Ming thought clearly and didn't waste any more time. He asked Ruan Xiu to guard Taiyin Peak carefully, and set off with Qu Feiyan again.

However, they didn't go far when they heard a woman's exclamation from the mountain path.

"Senior sister, what is this?"

"Hey, why is there such a weird branch, and it's still black? Uh... it's so itchy..."

"Ah! Sister, help me!"

"..."

Not far away, they seemed to be in danger, and they were in a mess.

Zhang Ming quickly exchanged glances with Qu Feiyan, and said, "Let's go and have a look!"

The two flew tens of feet away in an instant, only to see ferocious branches protruding from the ground, breaking through the mountain path, and entangled towards the three female disciples.

The branches are sharp, and the slightest touch will cut through the clothes of the three of them, revealing a large area of ​​tender white.

They exclaimed a few times, and immediately, a branch was inserted into their mouths, blocking their voices.

Then, the hideous branch rolled back, dragging them towards the crack in the ground.

"Monster, don't be so fierce in Taiyin Peak!"

Qu Feiyan couldn't help shouting angrily, stretched out his hand, and a red ribbon shot out like a sharp arrow.

boom--

Her full blow collided with the branches surging to the ground, and a roar erupted.

However, the branch was not damaged at all, and it continued to drag the three of them into the gap.

"Elder Qu, this is no ordinary monster!"

Zhang Ming's eyes tightened, and he waved down the five thunders to rectify the law.

boom--

The weird black branches were smoked by the five lightnings of Yin and Yang, but they still didn't break, and quickly disappeared into the cracks.

"Daoist Qinghui, please save my Taiyin Peak disciple!"

Qu Feiyan chased after anxiously, pleading. Zhang Ming immediately landed on the mountain road.

However, the cracked ground seam closed quickly when the two arrived.

"No, this monster has the ability to manipulate earth system rocks."

Zhang Ming faintly felt something was wrong.

"Eye of Immortality, open!"

He stretched out his hand and wiped it on his forehead, unlocking the ability to detect the false and destroy the false.

The mountain peaks, rocks, and soil instantly turned into transparent phantoms, revealing more than a dozen thick and long branches, retreating rapidly underground.

And where the branches passed by, the mountains and rocks condensed, forming an extremely strong defense.

Zhang Ming jumped over the shrinking branches and looked deeper.

Endless black breath appeared in the eyes.

"What a heavy evil spirit!"

Zhang Ming couldn't help sighing, looking into the very depths.

I saw the black evil spirit sinking endlessly at the bottom of the Four Sacred Mountains like a vast ocean.

The shadow of a huge tree, with tens of thousands of branches extending, is hidden in the black abyss.

"Under the Four Sacred Mountains...is there a huge tree monster?"

Zhang Ming saw the truth clearly in an instant, and said.

Qu Feiyan was taken aback: "What?"

Zhang Ming tilted his head slightly: "I see, maybe the third floor of Hehuan Cave is here!"

"Elder Qu, you once said that the founder of the Hehuan Sect did not come to the Four Sacred Mountains for no reason, but to suppress some evil monster."

"Now it seems that it is indeed as you said."

"Under the Four Sacred Mountains, there is an earth-shattering tree demon. I am afraid it is the target of suppression by the founder of the Hehuan Sect!"

"We killed the four patriarchs by chance, which may have touched the underground seal before it was revealed."

In one breath, he explained the situation.

Qu Feiyan was a little confused, so he thought about it back and forth, and finally realized something.

"Elder Qing Hui, your consciousness is... the branch just now is actually the limbs of a dryad?"

she asked in surprise and haste.

Zhang Ming ignored the detailed explanation, nodded, and said, "That's right, let's go down and have a look, maybe we can save them in time!"

As he spoke, he reached out and summoned an extremely luxurious car.

Go to heaven and enter the earth, omnipotent!

Immortal car - eight sceneries!
