A group of one hundred people flew on Yan Yuanchun's brocade handkerchief, and the magic weapon flew for five days and five nights before reaching the depths of the East China Sea.
Only by truly crossing it once can you realize how vast the East China Sea is.
No matter day or night, there is only the eternal blue sea for company, and occasionally you can see some islands dotted in it. This kind of emptiness and loneliness makes people feel depressed.
It’s no wonder that there are no top sects in the East China Sea. Although it is vast and boundless, the islands are scattered here and there and cannot be put together. If there is no chart, I am afraid that I may not be able to find an island even if I wander around for half a month.
During this period, Luan Chun, a little girl, was lively and heartless. She initially ignored Lin Shan because of her anger, but ended up running over to quarrel with him again the next day.
During the quarrel with Luan Chun, Lin Shan gradually came up with some words, and then he understood the current situation of the three overseas demon sects, as well as the origins of Yan Yuanchun, the golden elixir period protector.
It turns out that thousands of years ago, the power of the three major factions of Zhengdao in the Song Dynasty was at its peak. As their strength expanded, they needed to expand their territory. However, the basic base of the Song Dynasty already had so much. The six major factions of Zhengdao and Dao had already been divided. If they wanted to develop further, they could only grab them.
It just so happened that there were constant frictions between good and evil. The major leaders of the good way calculated their respective strengths and found that at that time, there was a lack of success in the evil way sect. The older generation of masters were gradually withering away, and the new generation of young people had not yet grown up.
Of course we must seize such a good opportunity.
So he found a reason and brazenly launched a civil war in the Song Dynasty's cultivation world.
The ending was just like the current situation. After several years of fierce fighting, the three major demon sects, Baigui Sect, Blood River Palace, and Black Lotus Sect, were all broken through the mountain gates and forced to go into exile in the northern country of Yan.
However, the resources of the cultivation world of Yan State have long been divided up by local forces, and there is no place for them, so they have to continue to wander north.
After traveling through more than ten countries, he finally found a base in the distant country of Lu. It is said that he was accepted by a super demon sect there that exerted pressure on more than ten countries, and gave the three exiled demon sects of the Song Dynasty a place to live.
In the Song Dynasty, there were also some remnants of the demonic path who did not go into exile but went underground. Of course, Luan Chun called them "remnants of the holy religion".
Anyway, the meaning is the same, it is that he has been a street rat in the Song Dynasty for thousands of years, he can only lurk in the dark, and when he is caught by the righteous way by chance, he will eliminate demons and defend the way.
For example, the Black Lotus envoy Lin Shan met in the Yelang Ancient Tomb in Southern Xinjiang was so tragically traced by Lei Zhenzi, and he came directly to capture him and bring him back to the Zixiao Sect for trial.
Yan Yuanchun, as a golden elixir monk of the Black Lotus Sect, has been hiding in a brothel in Yichuanfang City, secretly cultivating direct descendants, and occasionally receiving international instructions from the main altar in the far north.
Thousands of years have passed by in a blink of an eye. The three demon sects of the northern Lu Kingdom have no idea what they have experienced. In short, they have regained their original strength, so they plan to return to their hometown in the Song Dynasty, inherit the legacy of their ancestors, restore the mountain gate, and take revenge on the righteous way.
Two years ago, after a series of close and far-reaching attacks, they united with Lin Yuzhai, a great sect of the South China Sea, and Huangquan Sect, a demon sect of the Yan Kingdom, and captured the entire East China Sea. Now, a steady stream of reinforcement monks have arrived from the Lu Kingdom.
Coupled with the loose cultivators recruited by Donghai and the remnants of the demonic path that had been lurking for thousands of years during the Song Dynasty, basically as long as the springboard can be consolidated in recent years, they will be ready to attack the inland.
This time, Yan Yuanchun led hundreds of disciples to the East China Sea. It can be said that he took advantage of the war before it started, recognized his ancestors and returned to the sect early, and returned to the orthodoxy of the Black Lotus Sect. Otherwise, if there really is a war by then, it will be up to two people whether they can get out of the mainland.
Already.
…
As we chatted, the shadow of an island gradually appeared on the sea in the distance.
After the Jinpa under my feet quickly approached, I discovered that there were huge islands gathered together, covering a radius of thousands of miles.
There are towering volcanoes everywhere on the islands, and the heat waves are rolling. However, some giant peaks thousands of meters above sea level are covered with snow, which is like a world of difference from the mountains below.
There are several mortal cities recuperating on the island, and palaces and temples have been built on the three highest peaks. It is obvious that this place is located in the hinterland of the East China Sea. It is not only deep enough, but also has a vast area and excellent spiritual veins. It has become a temporary base for the three sects of the devil.
Headquarters.
Yan Yuanchun led everyone to land on a mountain peak on the left. The place was bustling with people coming and going. The monks passing by were in a hurry and had their own tasks. A rough estimate was that there were tens of thousands of monks.
Most of the people in the Black Lotus Sect are wearing black robes and cloaks, looking like magic sticks, and they seem to have a strong religious atmosphere.
"This is the temporary headquarters of the Black Lotus Sect. I will take you to the main altar to meet with the real leader first to confirm the return of our branch."
Everyone followed Yan Yuanchun all the way up the mountain. There were traces of newly opened palaces and caves all around, but not many people seemed to live there.
Come to think of it, now that the East China Sea has been settled, a large number of monks should be sent out to stabilize the territory. The 10,000 people at the headquarters may just be the reinforcements that have just arrived.
After passing through countless caves and going up thousands of steps, we finally arrived at the main altar hall at the top of the mountain. After everyone followed in, they found that there were already several teams waiting inside, each with dozens or hundreds of people.
More than a dozen Jindan monks in the hall were chatting about something. When they saw Yan Yuanchun coming with the monks from his headquarters, they all said hello. It seemed that everyone knew each other.
"Since Junior Sister Yan is here, all the local survivors have been gathered. Let's come together to hold a return ceremony."
A middle-aged man in black robes in the middle called Yan Yuanchun up. Listening to the names of others, he was the current headmaster of the Black Lotus Sect. He had already reached the Great Perfection level in the late Jindan stage, and there were no old monsters in the Nascent Soul stage.
, basically enough to control the overall situation and lead all the disciples in the sect.
"Brother Headmaster, isn't it too childish for just a few of us to attend the return ceremony?"
"The situation is urgent. From the state of Lu to the Song Dynasty, there are thousands of mountains and rivers. Reinforcements from Zongtan are still being transported in batches. The people on the East China Sea side are so stretched that they have all been sent out. At present, they can only be simple.
Already."
The head master expressed his apology slightly. The other local Jindan masters had been hiding in XZ for so long and finally managed to straighten their backs and return to their base. Naturally, they all had no unnecessary objections and all agreed.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The six golden elixir stages of the local remnants of the Black Lotus Sect have returned with hundreds of people. The other golden elixir stages in the temple are all minority sects who came from the Lu Kingdom.
The Inner Protector and Headmaster have also prepared various matters early today.
In this way, under the guidance of more than a dozen Jindan masters on the stage, several hundred people including Lin Shan, His Highness, went through some procedures hastily. Such as worshiping ancestors, worshiping Buddha, and reading out the precepts within the sect, it was considered official.
Return to the Black Lotus and become one of them.
Fortunately, the Black Lotus Sect does not have any rules such as not drinking alcohol, eating meat, or having sex with women. It just simply worships the "Black Lotus Buddha".
Yes, you heard me right!
It’s not belief, it’s just worship!
The monks in the sect are responsible for spreading the incense and allowing mortals to believe in it. As for who will harvest the final incense, that is not something you can ask. Just keep to yourself.
Apart from this, everything else feels quite normal, no different from other sects. Everyone leans against a big tree to enjoy the shade, and the disciples in the sect are all as close as one family. They should not kill each other, but live in harmony, and take preaching as their own responsibility.
Your Highness, Lin Shan, was confused after hearing this. Is this the rumor I know about the demonic sect that always sacrifices blood to its fellow sects? Why does it feel like a pyramid scheme?
The master in charge of the palace would not know what Lin Shan was thinking, so it was even more impossible to answer him. After completing the process according to the script, he began to arrange everyone's identities.
"In the Nascent Soul stage, you can be respected as the King of Dharma, in the Golden elixir stage, you can be the protector, in the Foundation-building stage, you can be the envoy, and in the Qi-training stage, you can be the disciples."
"The golden elixir period protector has the following divisions..."
"The messengers in the foundation-building period are divided into fighting messengers, commandment messengers, guardian messengers, and altar-cleaning messengers."
"During the Qi training period, the congregation is divided into..."
…
After the masters on the stage made a clear distinction, without exception, Yan Yuanchun's five foundation-building periods, including Lin Shan, were all named "Pure Altar Envoys".
Lin Shan was even more puzzled. He seemed to have a vague impression of the word, but it was so long ago that he couldn't remember it.
It seems... in the classical mythological novels of the previous life, after the so-called second senior brother came back from studying in the West, he was finally named the "Pure Altar Envoy".
What the hell is this?
