Chapter 371 Volume C Returning to the Mountain, Hidden Worries

"What's the current situation of Jiulian Sect?" Chen Huaisheng was most concerned about Jiulian Sect.

Although the Chonghua Sect, which has now annexed the Lingyun Sect, is no longer as dependent on the Jiulian Sect as before, and its feelings towards the Jiulian Sect are more complicated, it is undeniable that the Jiulian Sect is still the Chonghua Sect in Da Zhao, and in the world of cultivation, The closest ally.

Maybe this ally seems unreliable and not very useful, but it is better than nothing. Now the Jiulian Sect is in a difficult situation. Maybe after a few more years, they can recover?

In the future, if the Chonghua Sect wants to return to Da Zhao, and then to Langling and Yiyang, they will need the support of the Jiulian Sect.

After all, the size and strength of Jiulian Sect is there. No matter how fast it has declined in the past few years, it is still the top ten sects. A tiger cannot be defeated even if it is dead, not to mention that this tiger is not dead yet.

"It's hard to explain in one sentence." Fang Baoqi could only pick up what she heard. She was not a professional spy: "Anyway, the internal strife was fierce. If you don't obey me and I don't obey you, the three sects of Yaolian, Jingfu and Yuanhe are making a big fuss. , but it is well concealed from the outside world, but if someone is interested in spying, they can still learn some inside information. "

"What is the specific reason?"

Chen Huaisheng also knew that sects like this that unite multiple sects have tendencies and habits of division and internal fighting. However, the union of Jiulian Sect has a history of thousands of years. It is also an old rule of this sect to fight without breaking. Why in the past few years? It feels like something has crossed a line.

The internal fighting within the sect is nothing more than a struggle for power. Power is also closely related to interest, and ultimately boils down to profit.

"This is unknown. Maybe it's not for a certain aspect, but for years of resentment." Fang Baoqi didn't care much about these, and just told what he knew.

Chen Huaisheng did not place any hope in Fang Baoqi. Originally, Fang Baoqi had a careless temperament and paid little attention to these general affairs. He was far less smart and capable than Min Qingyu.

"Don't you know that our Chonghua sect is going to attend the Taoist meeting?" Chen Huaisheng looked at Min Qingyu.

Min Qingyu shook his head: "There is no news yet in the sect. It is estimated that most people are not even aware that another Taoist meeting will be held."

"Huai Sheng, if the sect wants to participate, will you go?" Fang Baoqi's eyes were somewhat curious.

Chen Huaisheng hesitated.

From the heart, he is not willing to get involved, and it is a competition under various rules. For him now, there is no need to exercise in this way.

But he knew that Fang Baoqi most likely didn't want to stay in Hebei, and hoped that he would accompany her back south.

Baoqi is afraid of the cold and has long said that she prefers the climate in Wuyue or Nanchu, as well as the customs and customs in the south.

Chen Huaisheng also laughed at her for being a monk at the sixth level of Qi Refining and being afraid of the cold. It was just an excuse.

From the perspective of the Chonghua Sect itself, Chen Huaisheng estimated that the sect would still want to participate.

After being moved to Hebei, thousands of miles away, he was left alone and had no voice in the country of Zhao. If this continued for less than twenty years, I'm afraid not many people would remember the Chonghua sect.

Although the number of new disciples of the Chonghua Sect is increasing day by day, the main disciples are still from the Dazhao family in Yiyang, Langling and the surrounding areas of these two places.

In their hearts, they also long to return to their hometown. Even if it is a Taoist meeting, it is also exciting to return to their hometown to experience it.

If the sect decides to participate, and once it does, it will definitely hope to put on a decent battle array.

It has been three years since I came to Hebei in a flash. Chen Huaisheng was even a little confused. Why did he barely feel the passage of time, and it was only three years?

What did you do in the first year?

It seems that I still did a lot of things.

Oh, after the Dao Hui sniped at Baishimen in Xia Shek Bay, he finally left Panshan Langshan sadly and moved north to Hebei.

Settling down at Longlinyuan, we then cleaned up Shitang Village and Datuwei, and then we were accompanied by Qingyu on the way to Bianjing. Together with Tang Jingtian and his entourage on Peach Blossom Island in the East China Sea, we fought fiercely with the rays and other strange beasts in the sea...

The first year was so colorful, so why didn’t I have a deep impression on myself? In addition to going to Peach Blossom Island in the East China Sea.

What about the second year? After the New Year, it seems that three crises, namely the demon corpse, Cang Lang, and Lingyun Sect, are coming one after another.

The appearance of the demonic corpses is still a mystery, but they disappeared for no reason. Chen Huaisheng did not believe that these demonic corpses would disappear again. He just didn’t know why these demonic corpses were dormant and why they would reappear. .

However, the appearance of the demon corpse completely exposed the fierce-looking Ning family of Youzhou to the Du family of Bajiao Village as a strong external force but also made the Fengyi Sect lose its ambition to reach out to the north. Maybe the venomous snake's claws will force you to break off. arms to survive.

The battle to defend the Lingyun Sect was brutal enough. This was the first time that he challenged the Foundation Establishment head-on. Moreover, he was at the third level of Foundation Establishment. It can be said that it was truly a transcendent challenge.

The injury was serious enough, but it also helped him break through the eighth level of Qi refining, and the thunder method also gained a lot.

This year is the third year, and it is probably the most stable year. I can practice in the mountains with peace of mind. It is already October, and I have not even been out of Wolong Ridge.

Five people made a bet, and I don’t know what their current situation is?

Maybe you are already one step ahead?

Jing Ji thought about it. Now that he has reached the peak of Qi refining, shouldn't he consider taking this step forward and coveting foundation building?

"I haven't decided yet, but from my heart, I don't really want to go. Before building the foundation, I prefer to practice according to my own path." Chen Huaisheng sighed: "It's just that things may not go according to my wishes."

"Or the Taoist master can go out and travel in advance?" Min Qingyu came up with an idea: "There are many talents in the sect now. There are quite a few people from the Ding family and Lingyun Sect. They don't necessarily have to keep an eye on the Taoist master."

"I told the elders of the sect in advance, isn't it revealing my thoughts?" Chen Huaisheng smiled and shook his head: "There must be a suitable reason. Forget it, I'd better go to the mountain gate to pay a visit first."

For Chen Huaisheng now, dozens of miles are just a step away.

But he has to think about where to go first.

After the reform of the sect's power structure, the five big bosses were formed, three horses, plus Qi Hongkui who was still recuperating and Li Yu who continued to travel outside to seek the secret realm to ascend.

In fact, Shang Jiuling, Ding Zongshou and Zhu Fengbi are still in charge of the sect.

However, with the joining of hundreds of disciples from Lingyun Sect and the continuous recruitment of new disciples for two consecutive years, the number of disciples in Chonghua Sect has historically exceeded 500.

This number has tripled compared to the Chonghua Sect when it was still in Langling.

The joining of Lingyun Sect has brought some changes, that is, to a certain extent, it has enriched the foundation building and high-level Qi refining of Chonghua Sect, which is the most important backbone of small and medium-sized sects.

Before the incorporation of Lingyun Sect, even if the Ding family joined, the number of foundation building in Chonghua Sect was quite shabby, which was not commensurate with a sect with more than 300 disciples.

Except for a few purple mansions and Li Yu who entered the purple mansion attack, not counting those old foundation building who can no longer provide military output, there are only seven foundation building people, including Li Minghao, You Shaoyou, Ding Yuangao, Ma Daochun, Xu Muyang, Wu Tianen, and Wang Yao. After the battle of Dahuaishan Mountain, Xu Muyang died in battle, and the number was reduced to six.

Xu Tianfeng and Wang Chi succeeded in building their foundations, increasing the number of people to eight. Then Gou Yiwei succeeded in building his foundation, increasing the number to nine.

Cao Renben had not been able to break through before Chen Huaisheng went into seclusion a few months before his death, which made many people in the sect regretful.

Compared with a sect that has four people in the Purple Palace and one person who is trying to reach the Purple Palace, the number of nine foundation builders is really too shabby.

For example, the Gui Peng Sect in the Jiulian Sect has as many as seven foundation builders, but the Gui Peng Sect has only one Purple Palace, its leader.

Now that the Lingyun Sect has been merged, nine foundation builders have been added at once, bringing the number of foundation builders in the entire Chonghua Sect to eighteen.

This number is still seriously insufficient compared to four Purple Palaces, but it is also better than the original situation.

But such a change in data has also quietly brought some subtle effects.

Among the entire foundation-building cultivators, there are only seven from the old Zhonghua Sect, while the number of foundation-building cultivators from the original Lingyun Sect is more than that from the Zhonghua Sect. In addition to the three foundation-building cultivators from the Ding family, this means that the number of cultivators who have recently joined is now overwhelming, almost twice that of the old Zhonghua Sect.

Perhaps ordinary disciples do not have so many feelings for the time being, but for the cultivators and disciples with higher levels in the sect, such changes are different.

Because this means that these foundation-building disciples can accept disciples and can obtain the resource guarantees belonging to the foundation-building cultivators. If this continues, it is really hard to say what kind of changes will occur in the entire sect in the future.

This is also the precautionary measure that Chen Huaisheng made with several people at the beginning.

Shang Jiuling and Zhu Fengbi would not fail to see this.

Even if there was no bet, it is estimated that Shang and Zhu would have implicitly reminded and encouraged everyone to strive to break through the foundation-building as soon as possible, even if the sect gave the necessary resources for this.

Chen Huaisheng finally went to Wu Tianen first.

He could get the most direct information from Wu Tianen, and Wu Tianen was also the person he trusted the most.

When he saw Chen Huaisheng, Wu Tianen stood up in shock, walked over quickly, pulled Chen Huaisheng up and down, and a trace of spiritual consciousness also touched Chen Huaisheng's spiritual body along his fingers.

"Huaisheng, have you broken through? The ninth level of Qi Refining, no, you seem to have reached the peak? When did it happen?"

Chen Huaisheng did not hide: "It happened in the past two days. I just finished my retreat. I also feel that I seem to have reached the peak of Qi Refining, but I am not sure yet."

"Good, good, good!" Wu Tianen was overjoyed, and Chen Huaisheng was puzzled. Even if he was at the peak of Qi Refining, he should not let Wu Tianen lose his composure like this.
