Chapter 573 Mu Zongpuhou Kegong

On the side, Xiong Boxun heard that the two old seniors were reliving their old friendship. He immediately turned over his hand and took out a piece of Geng gold the size of a fist. He gnawed it as if it were a melon and fruit, watching with interest.

When he first set out to practice, the two great monks in front of him who were born in the Crouching Tiger Territory were already famous Nascent Soul Lords. One was an ancestor of the White Jade Sect, and the other was a notorious one-armed old man. Evil people.

Of course, when Xiong Boxun, who was born in the Ashan region, was in the humble cultivation of Qi refining and foundation building, he only knew about the Jindan and Nascent Soul monks in the surrounding sects, and did not pay attention to the names of the true kings in other regions.

It was not until he reached the Golden Core Stage in his cultivation that he was qualified to follow his elders out to broaden his horizons.

He remembered that seven or eight hundred years ago, his master Bai Su Zhenjun took him to the White Jade Sect to visit his good friend Mu Zongpu.

At that time, Hou Kegong had already been on the wanted list of the Elder's Palace and could no longer stay in the Crouching Tiger Territory.

However, before leaving, this person sent someone to the White Jade Sect and delivered a letter and a piece of black meat.

At that time, Xiong Boxun had just arrived at the White Jade Sect for less than an hour. He still vividly remembered that after Mu Zongpu read the letter, he held the piece of dried meat and his expression changed from kind to ferocious in just one or two breaths. In front of their master and disciple, he angrily summoned the four Yuan Ying brothers from the same sect and ordered them to come back in the shortest possible time.

Seeing this, Lord Bai Su naturally asked what happened and did he need his help?

However, Mu Zongpu did not agree. He just apologized and made it clear that he was going to kill a young man and treated the master and apprentice lightly.

Upon hearing this, Lord Bai Su had no choice but to take Xiong Boxun to another place.

Seeing Mu Zongpu digging up old scores, Hou Kegong did not tolerate him and sneered: "Do you still remember it so clearly? At that time, I just cut out a piece of your waist. Didn't you also throw a sharp gold talisman at me? Broke my arm?"

"Can this be the same? You applied water-moon snake venom on that cone, how vicious it is!" Mu Zongpu said through gritted teeth.

Upon hearing this, Hou Kegong smiled and said: "This is a good thing. If I hadn't met you, a disciple of the sect, I wouldn't be willing to use it! If I didn't capture you at that time, I would really lose money!"

Hearing this, Xiong Boxun couldn't help laughing, and quickly covered it up with a cough. He took the Geng gold that was full of stamps and sighed: "This thing is so hard, I almost choked."

As he spoke, he lowered his head, took another big bite with his molars, and started eating.

The Water Moon Snake is a unique kind of demon snake in the Crouching Tiger Domain. Most of them are only at the first level of cultivation comparable to Qi Refining Monks. Its venom cannot be seen in blood and seal the throat, but it has the hallucinogenic effect of arousing lust. Wonderful effect.

Or to be more precise, this water moon snake venom is not a poison in the traditional sense, but a kind of poison that can temporarily suppress the constraints of human nature, amplify the desire in one's heart, and more importantly, it also has an aphrodisiac effect.

It's just that if the poisoned person cannot detoxify in time, he will often be in bliss. As the essence is released, the state of death can be described as extremely indecent.

However, it is precisely because of this that the water-moon snake was almost hunted down by the monks, and it is difficult to find traces in the wild.

While Xiong Boxun was refining the Geng gold that he had swallowed into his belly and melting it into his own spiritual body, he thought to himself: "Hou Kegong is really not a human being. He cut out Mu Zongpu's waist and poisoned him with water-moon snake venom. I don’t know how he managed to survive in the wilderness.”

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Mu Zongpu with wide eyes. He then looked at Hou Kegong and saw him nodding his head slightly, showing his original appearance.

"It's not what you, a naughty boy, think. How could a noble and elegant person like Bai Su accept a rough guy like you!" Mu Zongpu said angrily.

"Senior Mu, Old Xiong, I am indeed a rough man, as everyone who has tried it over the years knows." Xiong Boxun said with a grin.

"The vulgarity is outrageous!" Mu Zongpu said helplessly.

As soon as he said this, Hou Kegong stretched out his right hand and begged: "When I left the Crouching Tiger Territory, I sent someone to return your waist. Where is my right arm?"

"I didn't take your arm away at that time. It must have been eaten by wild beasts in the mountains. Now that you have both arms and legs, what are you doing here?" Mu Zongpu said coldly.

"Waste! After all, it is the flesh and blood of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, but it was lost like this? As expected of a large family, if it were a casual cultivator like me, he would have to eat it anyway. It is all spiritual flesh, how can there be any room for waste? "Hou Kegong retracted his hand and said with a smile.

Having said this, he shook his head slightly: "But isn't what you are doing now just cutting off my arms?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Zongpu looked at the other party meaningfully.

After three or five breaths passed like this, he asked slowly: "Are you sure you want to stand up for those low-level casual cultivators?"

Hearing this, Hou Kegong suppressed the smile on his face and said solemnly: "Now there are only two great monks in Crouching Tiger Territory. In the past, it was difficult for you and me to reach an agreement, but today is different from the past, Zong Pu, what do you think? "

As soon as he said these words, Mu Zongpu frowned and was silent for a long time, and then he said: "How about you and I each take a step back? If you treat the Sanxiu Alliance as disbanded, I will summon the Nascent Souls of all sects and give preferential treatment to all from now on. "

"Then when I die, you will relapse into your old ways and continue to exploit casual cultivators, crushing their bones and sucking out their marrow. You wish you could seize the last spiritual stone in their hands and keep their cultivation in the Qi refining stage forever, and you are willing to act like cattle and horses?" Hou Kegong said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Mu Zongpu smiled and said: "Ke Gong, even the Elder Hall doesn't care about this matter, so why do you have to stand up for these people?" "The Elder Hall has always stood with the sect." Hou Kegong was deeply moved. The ground sighed.

"So why do you bother? We can relax the channels for casual cultivators to break through and build foundations. Before the casual cultivators alliance you founded, if those casual cultivators in our Crouching Tiger Territory with four spiritual root qualifications can stay calm and diligent, If you become a spiritual cultivator, it only takes about a month, and the spiritual stones you get can support them until they reach the late stage of Qi refining, but is this true?" Mu Zongpu asked.

"That's right! But even for monks like you, the training of disciples begins at the age of twelve. How could you not know that most casual cultivators often embark on this path of immortality by chance? By then, they are often already older than He is in his twenties and thirties. If he spends another sixty years, he will already be in the octogenarian age. To overcome the tribulation and break through the foundation at this age is no less than seeking death. Often, among hundreds or thousands of people, only one or two are lucky. Success." Hou Kegong said solemnly.

Hearing this, Mu Zongpu nodded lightly. The cultivation environment of the Crouching Tiger Domain was like this. The threshold for foundation building was artificially raised by the sect, thereby restricting the appearance of the Golden Pill and Nascent Soul of the casual cultivators.

As for the centenary assessment of the Elder Hall, they have their own way of dealing with how many new Jindan monks there are among the casual cultivators under each sect.

Seeing this, Hou Kegong said in a deep voice: "If you want me to dissolve the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, that's not impossible! The Rogue Cultivator's qualifications are four spiritual roots, and the age is based on twenty-five years old. You have to set the foundation threshold Down to fifty-five."

Upon hearing this, Mu Zongpu sneered: "Even a monk with three spiritual roots qualifications will have to spend twenty years of sleepless time refining the spiritual energy from the Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Building Stage. Do you think Is it really possible for those casual cultivators of the Four Spiritual Roots to reach the threshold of foundation building within thirty years?"

If we count from the age of twelve to the age of sixty, there are a total of forty-eight years.

And if the days and nights are divided in half, plus wind, rain, three disasters and six diseases and other troublesome things, the time the monks can use is about twenty years.

"You also said that it is just the mana accumulated by refining spiritual energy by one person!" Hou Kegong said slowly.

There are many things to assist cultivation in the world of cultivation, such as Lingshan Blessed Land, formations, talismans, elixirs, etc., but it is difficult for casual cultivators to access them.

"Even if fellow Yuan Ying Taoists from other sects agree to this matter, I will not agree to it!" Mu Zongpu said very firmly.

If in such a relaxed environment, almost every practice can break through the foundation building stage, then Crouching Tiger Territory cannot bear it.

At that time, under the general trend, the Crouching Tiger Domain cultivation community has only two choices, either to internalize itself and reduce the number of monks through war, or to invade nearby large cultivation regions and plunder more cultivation resources.

"Except for the Rogue Cultivator Alliance founded by me, look at the so-called new Rogue Cultivator Golden Pills in other places. Which one is not faked by your sect monks? It's a pity that in the elders' meetings over the years, I have told Jin Mu and Wuxiang The ancestor has complained so many times, but every time the response is loud and clear. If the Elder Palace cannot satisfy my demands, then I will have to use my own method." Hou Kegong said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Mu Zongpu said in a deep voice: "Ke Gong, if this matter gets too big, it will not be good for you or me! Now that you and I have just joined the service of Patriarch Xuanhong, we are killing each other. It will not be nice to talk about it. "

"What does it mean to make a big fuss? Since ancient times, your sect has exploited casual cultivators endlessly. Do you know that when I was young, in order to save one or two spiritual stones, I was reluctant to throw away the bodies of other cultivators of the same clan? Treat it as rations! How about you, just a disciple of the inner sect, you can get a valuable talisman at once, is this fair?" Hou Kegong said slowly.

Speaking of this, he took a deep breath and said: "Ancestor Xuanhong was born as a casual cultivator and was once the ancestor of Yuanying of Lingyan Sect. He should know best what kind of existence the sect is. There is also the situation of the vast majority of casual cultivators.”

"But this has been the case for sects and casual cultivators since ancient times. Absolute fairness also means absolute unfairness! The two ancestors Jin Mu and Wu Xiang will not care about you and me in the Crouching Tiger Territory, and ancestor Xuan Hong will not care about it. No! In their eyes, as long as the Golden Pill and Nascent Soul cultivators can be passed down from generation to generation, it doesn't matter whether they are from a sect or a casual cultivator!" Mu Zongpu said in a deep voice.

"Then you can't even achieve relative fairness? You sect disciples have the blessed land of Lingshan, as well as formations, talismans, elixirs and other means. In more than ten years, you can go from the Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Building Stage. , Loose cultivators will never see the light of day." Hou Kegong sighed softly.

Speaking of this, he said in a deep voice: "I am already more than two thousand three hundred and forty years old now, and my time is really running out. Aren't you monks from all sects just waiting for me to die of old age? In these years, you people have already If you continue to lure the new Nascent Soul members in the alliance, as well as those Jindan juniors, if I die, you will definitely take action and use the power of wind and thunder to suppress the entire Rogue Cultivator Alliance. It is foreseeable that the day will eventually fall apart. "

Hearing this, Mu Zongpu said slowly: "Ke Gong, you don't have to deliberately mislead me. The oppression from the outside will only make your loose cultivator alliance more cohesive, so we can only use gentle tactics to secretly cut off the contact between you and other parties. , and then break them down one by one. To tell you the truth, this is a strategy that we and other sects have already set, and this is being implemented now. You only have one head and two hands, and you are unable to stop it. Yes! And after you die, we will clean up the entire Crouching Tiger Territory and erase all traces of your existence, leaving no trace of your existence. You should honestly serve as the cornerstone of the sect, what do you think? ?”

Speaking of this, he shook his head slightly: "The monks in the world even have different spiritual roots. Even if you implement your ideas and create a world of great harmony, they will inevitably collapse in the end. You will not Can’t you see it?”

Upon hearing this, Hou Kegong looked up at the sky, showing confusion: "I have done many evil deeds in my life, but after all, they are not as evil as yours, which comes from the human heart. I know, I understand, even if I erase All the sects like you can temporarily provide a fair environment for all the casual cultivators in the Crouching Tiger Domain. All the cultivators start from the same starting point, but everyone still has different spiritual roots. This is determined by fate! "

"It's your nature, why bother?" Mu Zongpu advised.

"Even if the Elder Hall does not intervene, the cultivation speed of monks such as Tianlinggen and Yilinggen is inherently faster than those with low qualifications. As time goes by, these people will definitely rise at a faster speed and concentrate more With more cultivation resources, a new oppressive class has formed. I believe that there should be no divisions between sects, families, and casual cultivators in this world. The cultivation world should be a state of mutual opposition between wind and thunder, not the west wind. Overpowering the east wind means that the east wind overwhelms the west wind, which should promote the growth of life and the progress of civilization. If one day monks from all races can put down their guard against each other and sit together, then what will happen? What kind of scene should it look like?" Hou Kegong looked at the sky and raised his hand, as if he was trying to catch something.

"Fellow Daoist Hou, such a vision is absolutely impossible to realize. Stop daydreaming." Xiong Boxun said slowly.

Speaking of this, his eyes darkened slightly and he said coldly: "I didn't expect you to live to such an old age and still be so naive. It really surprises this junior! The instinct of life is selfish, and it is formed by it. The same is true for the world. All we can do is to try our best to absorb nutrients in the troubled world, continue to grow, surpass other monks, and let ourselves become towering trees. Only then can we bathe in the sunshine. As for being deeply rooted in the Which of the earth’s huge root systems is not entangled with numerous bones?”

"Although the world is like this, there are some things that are unspeakably weird if you think about it carefully, isn't it?" Hou Kegong said slowly.

Speaking of this, he closed his eyes and showed a look of pain: "I have been thinking about this for more than a thousand years, but I really can't see any way out!"

"Fellow Daoist Hou, if you want to practice yourself, you must keep yourself useful and learn to compromise!" Mu Zongpu called.

As he spoke, he pointed to the sky.
