Quickly returning to Wolong Ridge, Chen Huaisheng did not delay and immediately asked to see Shang Jiuling and the elders of the Elder Hall.

The Presbytery currently has six elders, Shang Jiuling, Ding Zongshou, Linghu Zui, Zhu Fengbi, Qi Hongkui, Li Yu, and there is also a layman named Duguo who is looking to see if he can recover and return to the Zi Mansion.

There is no other criterion than whether you have the strength of the Zifu.

Yes, no matter how junior you are, no matter how short your strength is when you join the Chonghua Sect, you can still enter the Elder Hall, such as Qi Hongkui and Linghu Zui, and the rankings are completely based on strength, except for the leader.

Without this strength, no matter how senior you are, you will be embarrassed to ask to join the Presbytery, because you will not be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility given to you.

For example, You Shaoyou once had the extravagant hope of entering the Presbyterian Church, but in the end he gave up on this unrealistic fantasy.

Now Zhu Fengbi and Qi Hongkui are stationed in Chongyang Mountain, which is the bridgehead and base area for the Chonghua faction to return to Zhao in the future. Now they have begun to increase their efforts in construction to prepare for the Chonghua faction to slowly return, but for now, it is not possible

Replace Wolong Ridge.

In fact, there are only four people left in the presbytery, Shang Jiuling, Ding Zongshou, Linghu Zui and Li Yu.

The elders of the Presbyterian Hall were still surprised by Chen Huaisheng's sudden move to convene a meeting.

Generally speaking, the deliberations of the Presbyterian Church are very particular. Unless there are particularly important matters, they are usually held once a month. After all, there are four courtyards under the Presbyterian Church, and each of the four courtyards has their own specific responsible persons. Unless there is something that cannot be handled, and

Only in extremely urgent cases will requests be made for separate discussions.

It is against the rules for a single person like Chen Huaisheng to ask the Presbyterian Church to discuss matters. Unless it is particularly important and urgent, Shang Jiuling's consent is required.

The elders also have their own things to do. They have to teach disciples and teach their skills, they also have to practice themselves, and they even have to discipline their own disciples, which is not easy.

A person like Linghu Zui came in with more than a hundred people from the Yuhan Sect. In addition to his own direct disciples, he also had so many junior disciples. Even if he joined the Chonghua Sect and became a family, there would still be some estrangement.

, also need regular care, very busy.

It is definitely not easy to get Shang Jiuling to agree to the urgent matter.

After Chen Huaisheng described in detail what he saw and heard in Yuntan Valley and what he saw when he went to Yue'an Mountain in Tangshui Road, everyone fell into silence.

Chen Huaisheng made it clear in general. Except for some disguises and modifications, such as the conversation with Lei Xi, many other details are true and can stand the test.

As for why he went to Yue'an Mountain, Chen Huaisheng was not secretive and explained that he hoped to gain some benefits for Yun Zhongshan.

This is not a foul.

In such a large Chonghua sect, many of them have established their own bureaus, and they all support a large group of people who have to live. If you rely solely on the monthly salary provided by the sect, your life will be very miserable, and you will have to go out to make money.

Including the elders, except for those who have their own family resources, they are either supported by disciples or have to go out to find channels, but they all need to report to Zhikeyuan.

Of course, this is not necessary for simple tasks such as hunting. Reporting mainly refers to the kind of long-term business that requires contact with monks outside the sect.

Chen Huaisheng spoke in great detail. He introduced his observations, analysis and judgments over the past few years, as well as some abnormal changes discovered this year, and put forward his views and basis, which allowed all the elders to listen clearly.

clear.

"In other words, based on these changes, you conclude that this year's monster wave will be larger than before?" Linghu Zui couldn't help but ask: "How big do you think it will be?"

"It may be much worse than the worst situation we expected." Chen Huaisheng said seriously.

"Can you give me an example?" Linghu Zui refused to give up.

He knew that this direct disciple of Shang Jiuling was extremely talented and that Shang Jiuling valued him very much, but he was not too close to him.

Perhaps this has a lot to do with the fact that he was accepted as a disciple by Li Yu on behalf of Shang Jiuling, but it is undeniable that this person has built up the middle section of the foundation within a few years, and can definitely be regarded as one of the top talents of the Chonghua sect.

"Well, for example, third-order monsters will appear as frequently as second-order monsters in the past. I'm afraid that fourth-order monsters will not just appear occasionally, but will appear frequently. They may attack humans, especially places where cultivators live.

For example, if the Du family in Bajiao Village is attacked by a third-order monster, it may become a fourth-order monster attack, and we in Wolong Ridge may even be attacked by multiple fourth-order monsters at once..."

Ding Zongshou couldn't bear it anymore.

"I have been in Hebei for a hundred years, and there are many third-order monsters. I admit it, but I have only encountered fourth-order monsters once or twice in a hundred years, which is fleeting. Well, it is indeed possible to appear this winter.

But your statement that several heads will appear in one place at the same time is a bit exaggerated, right? There is not enough evidence to support it, right?"

"Uncle Ding, I know there is not enough evidence for this judgment of mine, but judging from the pattern of monsters appearing in winter in the past few years, this winter will definitely be unusual, and many senior brothers and uncles in our sect have opened caves and established mansions.

Even far away from the Dragon Scale Plain, that’s why the disciples are so worried and anxious. Once the third- and fourth-level monsters suddenly attack, there may be chaos, and the masters may be beyond their reach or unable to take care of them..."

This worry was quite shared by a few people.

Many of those who moved out of Longlin Plain to open caves and establish mansions are foundation-building monks, and a large number of them are even in the early stage of foundation-building. Not to mention fourth-level monsters, even encountering third-level monsters is quite troublesome, especially

However, many of them have not set up a protective formation, and there are many disciples and their families following them. Once they encounter such a disaster, they may suffer heavy losses and lead to chaos.

"Then what do you mean..." Shang Jiuling frowned.

"All the caves below the initial stage of foundation construction will be recovered and returned to the Dragon Scale Plain. The caves in the middle stage of foundation construction and above also need to build mountain protection formations. They must be recognized by the Elder Hall as having certain defensive capabilities before they can stay outside. ..."

Chen Huaisheng's suggestion made all the elders shake their heads slightly.

This involvement is too broad. Among the dozens of caves and Taoist temples, at least half are monks in the first stage of foundation building. It is impossible to abandon the caves and return to Longlinyuan to hide in danger for such a reason. No one would think that

They are not worthy of building a house outside, or they are unable to withstand external dangers. The principle of not shedding tears until they see the coffin is definitely suitable for these people.

But the question is, will it be too late to see the coffin?

Therefore, Chen Huaisheng's suggestion is in vain. Even if the Presbyterian Church is willing to accept Chen Huaisheng's point of view, it will be difficult to do so.

"So, in the end, we can only do our best. In fact, I know deep down that we can't do it, so we can only take care of ourselves."

Chen Huaisheng said to Wu Tianen calmly: "We have devoted all our efforts to build the magic circle and turned all the spiritual stones into magic weapons, spiritual talismans, spiritual materials, elixirs, and spiritual food to overcome this hurdle. I feel

It won’t be long before the first wave of monsters comes.”
