Chapter 83 Sect Assessment

The information obtained from Zhang Yin Zhuan was random and messy, and trying to find a piece of information that was valuable to him was actually a bit like digging for gold.

But there is one thing that is worth the previous efforts.

"Even if the incense in Daoya is not as much as that of Lao Longtou, it won't be much less, right?"

Li Yuan murmured in his heart, recalling the information about incense.

Regarding incense, it was also secretive in Longhu Temple, but he had more or less come into contact with it.

The imperial court consecrated the gods and built temples to receive incense from all over the world. From the roads to counties, it was everywhere, and the yamen and Zhenwu halls in various places were responsible for harvesting the incense.

Compared with taxation, incense is the real prohibition of the imperial court. No sect is allowed to get involved. He has seen some records in the library.

This seems to be traced back to Pang Wenlong, the great ancestor of the Grand Canal. When he divided the sects, this was also one of the rules.

‘Those who build temples without permission to receive incense will have their fiefdom taken away and their inheritance cut off.

This rule is not exposed to the outside world, but no sect has dared to violate it for more than a thousand years. For example, the temple dedicated to the ancestor is only limited to the sect.

It's just that building a temple is taboo, but stealing incense secretly is not. Although Li Yuan has not heard of similar rumors, he guesses that there are many.

"Anyone who dares to attack Dao Yamen is probably not easy to deal with.

Li Yuan was a little worried, but he was also quite moved.

He is really in need of incense, whether it is Zhang Bing Seal Script or Zhang Yin Seal Script.

If the incense harvested by Dao Ya once in three years is really available, it will be enough to solve his urgent need.

"It's exciting to think about it...well, be careful and wait until you can combine the next divine hammer. If you can control the sea-splitting black whale hammer, it will be safer, right?"

Li Yuan had some calculations in his mind.

Although incense is important, you can't forget about danger because of greed. There is no big mistake in being careful.

With the soldiers in hand and the master as his teacher, he was practicing martial arts step by step. At least before changing blood, he estimated that he had no bottlenecks, so why take risks?

"Normally speaking, the Taoist government harvests incense at least around the end of the year. There is still time... I happened to be listening several times in the past few days. Is there any more detailed information?

You can also look for other spiritual herbs mentioned in the information...

With an idea in mind, Li Yuan put away the listening book, swallowed a 'Golden Body Pill', and pushed out the door.

The moon and stars are sparse, and the courtyard is bright.

Li Yuan looked up and saw that there were not even a few clouds in the night sky:

"There's still no thunder.

It is not difficult for Hubao Leiyin to master, at least with his current talent, this special intermediate martial arts, if the conditions are met, can be practiced to perfection in one year, not to mention half a year.

The problem is, the conditions cannot be met.

There is no shortage of rain on Hengshan Road, but throughout the year, the next 30 to 50 rains are already overwhelming, and thunder cannot be heard a few times. No matter how talented you are, you cannot perceive the shape of thunder out of thin air.

"Master Lei in winter, even if there are, there are only a few sounds, maybe it won't be until next spring.

Li Yuan was a little helpless, but more of he was looking forward to it.

He has never given up on the practice of the Hundred Beasts Thunder Dragon. Although he has been unable to achieve it due to the limitation of the unformed thunder form, he has not delayed in other aspects.

Now, he has fifty forms, most of which can be transformed into the thunder dragon. As long as he realizes the thunder form, the thunder dragon of all beasts will surely advance by leaps and bounds and catch up with Lao Han.

After all, all the forms he changed later were in preparation for the Hundred Beasts Thunder Dragon.

In the courtyard, Li Yuan thought about it for a moment. The power of the Golden Body Pill spread out violently and violently, making him groan.

"Long Chan, Hun Tian!'

Li Yuan stood with a hammer in his stance, controlled the two divine hammers, and moved his body in the small courtyard. The two unique skills of the pile were flowing and changing on his body.

With the blessing of two divine hammers, his hammering talent is already peerless. Although the blessing of the Dragon Zen Diamond Sutra is not great, the progress of the Dragon Tiger Huntian Hammer is very fast.

With the blessing of several other weapons with the effect of controlling the "Dragon-Tiger Houndian Hammer" and "Perfection", in just over ten days, this unique skill was actually close to being perfected.

If it weren't for this progress, he wouldn't have been able to borrow Nuqing eggs from Long Xixiang so easily before.

Huhu~

The long hammer dances, like thunder when it comes out, and makes a faint sound when it falls.

"Sound itself reflects many things, power, angle, smoothness and transformation...

Li Yuan half-closed his eyes and immediately felt the difference.

The sound of swinging hammers, the sound of air currents, the friction of muscles and bones, the sound of blood rushing, the sound of internal Qi circulating... All the sounds he made reached my ears and filled my heart.

The sounds that were commonplace in the past have become extremely vivid and vivid at this moment.

With this, he can be keenly aware of the slight errors in his hammering technique and body, and accordingly, with fine-tuning, his hammering technique and movements become more smooth and natural.

Compared with previous practice, I have gained three points of progress!

“This is an unexpected surprise.

Li Yuan's heart was at peace, and he didn't seem to feel the pain caused by the medicinal power of the Golden Body Pill, and he was immersed in practicing.

Gradually, things and I were forgotten.

...

...

Before nightfall, a carriage got off Longyin Peak, passed through the inner and outer gates, and entered Hengshan City.

"Master, your injury is so serious. Is there anything that I can't help you with? Do you have to go down the mountain by yourself?"

In the carriage, a pretty female disciple’s face was full of worry.

Amidst the strong smell of medicine, Chu Xuankong sat cross-legged, a trace of blood flashed across his old face, and he opened his eyes:

"The mountains are cold and not suitable for recovering from injuries. It is more convenient to be in the city.

His voice was low and weak.

"disciple.......

"If you should go back to the mountain, just go back to the mountain."

Chu Xuankong glanced at her lightly, and the latter's face turned pale, and he immediately knelt on the ground: "Disciple has absolutely no intention of doing this.

"Go down.

Chu Xuankong waved his hands, his face full of fatigue.

The female disciple kowtowed several times before stumbling out of the car.

"The trees fell and the hozens scattered.

Chu Xuankong twitched the corners of his mouth and laughed at himself.

The master who has achieved great success through exchange of blood is also known as Longmen Pass in the world. If he crosses it, the sky is high and the sea is vast, and he will dominate the world. If he cannot cross it, he will naturally suffer a bloody head and a sad feeling.

"I'm just missing a thread, just a thread...

Taking a deep breath, Chu Xuankong's expression changed, and his eyes were full of unwillingness.

In order to break through the Grandmaster, he made all kinds of preparations and asked himself that he was 50% sure. In fact, he almost reached the end, but he fell in front of the door because after the blood and soul merged, the soul could not leave the body.

"Give me another chance and this door will open!"

- After spitting out his foul breath, Chu Xuankong's eyes narrowed slightly, and the carriage stopped in front of the mountain gate.

"Senior Brother Chu, are you going down the mountain?"

The curtain was opened, and in front of the carriage, the person who came was wearing white clothes embroidered with cloud patterns, bamboo and cypress, standing with a sword in hand, looking at the pale Chu Xuankong in the carriage.

Once a disciple of Longhu Temple becomes a true disciple, apart from the lineage of the master, whether he is the helmsman or the deputy hall master, he can be regarded as a master brother.

Even though Chu Xuankong was a dozen years older than him.

"It turns out to be Junior Brother Xin.

Chu Xuankong coughed lightly: "I don't need to report to you where I'm going, right?"

“Where, where.

Xin Wenhua shook his head: "I'm just curious why Senior Brother Chu had to go down the mountain himself when he was so seriously injured.

"-Just some personal matters.

Chu Xuankong was very weak, but his voice was sharp: "Junior Brother Xin, could it be that he has doubts about Chu? If so, why not go with me?"

After all, he was the quasi-grandmaster on the front line of the grandmaster's sect. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and even Xin Wenhua was a little stressed.

But it was just one, he already responded with a smile:

"Although Xin has some chores to do, since it is Senior Brother Chu who invites you, Junior Brother will naturally not dare not agree."

"you?"

Chu Xuankong was slightly angry.

Xin Wenhua had already gotten into the carriage and ordered the stunned disciple who was driving the carriage:

"Still not leaving?"

"oh oh.

The disciple rushed the car at a loss.

In the carriage, Chu Xuankong had closed his eyes. Xin Wenhua didn't care about his cold eyes at all, but he just took out a piece of incense and lit it to dispel the smell of medicine in the carriage.

.....

Chu Xuankong closed his eyes with a cold face, just pretending that he didn't exist.

Xin Wenhua didn't care and asked:

"Junior brother, I would like to ask, Senior Brother Chu, you have never married a wife, you have not taken any concubines, and you have no children or descendants. I wonder if you have any private matters to take care of?"

Whoosh!

Chu Xuankong opened his eyes, but he wasn't angry either. He just let out a long sigh:

"Junior Brother Xin, you and I have no grievances in the past and have no grievances in recent days. Even if you hosted a banquet for Li Yuan before, I betrayed your face and will never complain again...

"Now, I am seriously injured and will soon die. Is this how you repay me?"

"What Senior Brother Chu said, it seems that Junior Brother is bullying you."

Xin Wenhua was startled. He couldn't bear the blame. He would be in trouble if the news spread. He could only point out:

"A few days ago, someone sent you a letter privately. Does Senior Brother Chu still remember some of the content in the letter?"

"What letter?"

Chu Xuankong was slightly startled -

Xin Wenhua was a little suspicious: "You don't know?"

"Junior brother Xin, why don't you just say it if you have something to say?"

Xin Wenhua took a deep look at him: "If the prediction is correct, that letter should come from the Evil God Cult!"

"Evil Cult?"

Chu Xuankong's pupils shrank, and his face immediately turned ugly:

"Junior brother Xin is afraid that I will betray the clan?

"Senior Brother Chu, you are also the deputy hall master of Longyin Hall. You must have heard about those things before. This is the sect's rule. It is not the junior brother's intention to make things difficult.

Xin Wenhua sighed in his heart.

When the elders of the sect were seriously injured, they still had to keep strict guard on them. It was really unkind and seemed callous.

But behind every seemingly unreasonable rule, there are blood and tears.

Not only the Longhu Temple, but also the Five Great Dao Sects, even the various state sects, and some prefecture sects also have similar rules.

Without him, there have been too many examples.

Especially Longhu Temple, it suffered a big loss. The previous leader of Longmen rebelled and joined the Evil God Sect, and became a laughing stock among Taoist sects!

"With the methods of the Evil God Cult, is it difficult to send a letter silently?

Chu Xuankong coughed several times and became emotional: "How could I have an affair with the Evil God Cult?"

"This is the rule, senior brother should understand it.

Xin Wenhua was also a little helpless. As far as he was concerned, he really didn't want to do such a thing, as it would really hurt the friendship between his fellow students.

But he also knows very well that there is great terror between life and death. Instead of testing people's hearts, it is better to cut off the temptation, otherwise, he will not show up.

"I understand.

Chu Xuankong sighed deeply, as if he had aged dozens of years in an instant. He waved his hand and called to the disciple who was driving:

“Go back to the mountain.

Is the information wrong?

Seeing his appearance, Xin Wenhua was a little suspicious, but Chu Xuankong didn't speak again until he returned to Longyin Hall.

"Could it be that the people from the Evil God Cult are creating a rift?"

Outside the courtyard, Xin Wenhua was doubtful, but since he returned to the inner gate, he stopped for a while and then left.

"he's gone...

In the yard, Chu Xuankong never got off the carriage. He sat cross-legged in silence until it was dark and there was no one around. Then he reached out and pressed.

‘With a crack, the bottom of the car cracked. He stretched out his hand and picked up a dark red token from the bottom:

“Thousand Spirits Save People Stele!”

Under the faint red light, Chu Xuankong’s face flickered. He had seen similar tokens many years ago. He didn’t even look at them at that time, but now...

“It’s just a hair’s breadth away. If I stop here, even if I die, I won’t be willing.

Chu Xuankong murmured in his heart, but he was a little hesitant.

After hesitating for a moment, he still took out a few copper coins from his sleeves and decided to tell a fortune for himself first, but put them away.

“Since I have made a decision in my heart, why do I need to tell a fortune?”

With this thought, Chu Xuankong crushed the ‘Thousand Spirits Save People Stele’ that the Evil God Cult used to extradite masters from various sects.

Buzz~

A flash of red light had already entered his body.

Chu Xuankong only felt a roar in his mind. In a trance, he seemed to see the blood-colored light interweaving. In the dim darkness, there seemed to be a terrifying existence with a thousand eyes. is watching him.

"If you worship him as a god, you can live a hundred years!"

Chu Xuankong had a sudden realization in his heart and felt the will of this god:

.Look... it's... the Whale Hammer that Splits the Sea!"

.....

.....

Longhu Temple has many rules. For inner and outer sect disciples and menial disciples, there is a small assessment once a year, and for all sect disciples, there is a big assessment every three years.

That day, the wind and snow were very strong. Li Yuan got up early, made a fool of himself, and walked quickly to the main peak of Longmen.

Chungang Peak belongs to Hun Tian Duo and Da Longmen. The assessment of new disciples is all in the main peak of Longmen.

"The assessment of Chungang Peak disciples is to see how many weapons are forged in a year. Naturally, I am over-satisfied."

Li Yuan is very concerned about this assessment.

It's not that the assessment itself is so important, but after the assessment, even if it is the second year of entry, the quota of elixir and spiritual rice that have been used up before will be reset.

"Ranked 40 on the Dragon List, you can buy four elixirs and 1,400 kilograms of spiritual rice every year. The higher the ranking, the better the treatment is. Unfortunately, I didn't make it into the top 30.

In the wind and snow, the new disciples from the various halls and rudders of Longmen rushed to the main peak of Longmen. Li Yuan's pace was naturally very fast. He passed by a dragon stele and looked up.

"Li Yuan, 39th on the Dragon List, Tongmai.

"After reaching 40, it's not easy to climb up.

Li Yuan glanced at the ranking on the dragon stele.

In the past ten days, he has forged another a-qi meridian, the Dragon Tiger Hun Tian Hammer has also been completed, and the Dragon Zen Diamond Sutra has also achieved some success.

The progress is not small, but it is only difficult to climb into the 40th.
