Bone Taoist

Chapter 822 Giant Deer
The sun sets and the dawn breaks, the time passes.

Above the vast mountains and land, Ye Zang seemed to see a magnificent and vast fairy city. The fairy city was wrapped in thick fairy mist and was looming, but as he got closer, the mist slowly disappeared.

Ye Zang's Dharma Eye pierced through and found that there were hundreds of formations set up there, including soul-protecting formations and concealing formations.

Julu City is a natural beauty, as if it has merged into the surrounding mountains and rivers.

It looks magnificent, but the interior decoration is plain and not as luxurious as Tianmingzhou or Zhongzhou.

It seems that all the Taoist sects in Dongshengzhou are like this. They don't like to make their own Taoist sects too grand. It seems that they are well aware of the principle of not showing off their wealth.

In such a place where there are many schools of thought and a mix of good and bad people, who knows what kind of opponents you will encounter.

Moreover, Dongsheng Shenzhou has the largest number of independent cultivators among the ten continents in the world, and among them there are many famous and powerful figures.

When the Jiang family's flying boat approached within a hundred miles, the guard monks from Julu City flew over.

"Are you from the Southern Xinjiang Jiang family?" a young man in a dark red Taoist robe asked in a deep voice.

"That's right." Ye Zang bowed slowly and said.

"Please follow me, senior. The elder has been waiting for you for a long time."

Ye Zang and others did not enter from the huge main gate, but directly entered Julu City from the sky magic circle on the right. This is a special maneuvering formation for merchants from all over the world who cooperate with Julu City.

The Jiang family has invested a lot in Julu City. Not only does they have a special shop for rare stones, they also send their direct disciples to guard the place, and they also hold stone-opening meetings every once in a while.

Buzz!
There was the sound of whirring wind and the sound of a large formation passing through the flying boat.

Ye Zang was in the movement formation and was suddenly teleported to the interior of Julu City.

After walking out, Ye Zang looked up at the sky with some surprise.

"This is actually a small world..."

Ye Zang raised his eyes and looked towards the sky. It was full of bright stars, extremely magnificent and gorgeous. These stars seemed to be used for decoration, but they were also dormant in the formation.

Julu City is not a fairy city that only cares about its appearance; every inch of its land has a meaning.

Looking around, this looked like a port, but there was no sea or lake. There were many flying boats docked in the port, and Ye Zang even saw a familiar flying boat.

That was the gilded flying boat of the Fengtian Dynasty of Zhongzhou.

"The disciples of the Fengtian royal family are restless. Even people from Dongsheng Shenzhou have come." Ye Zang blinked his eyes. He didn't expect it to be such a coincidence to meet someone from the royal family of the Fengtian Dynasty.

No one knows who has come this time, nor does he know how Nangong Ling is doing in the Fengtian Dynasty. This was a secret chess move made by Ye Zang at the time, but this chess piece seems to be about to escape from Ye Zang's control. He has not contacted Nangong Ling for a long time, and he does not know what the current situation in Zhongzhou is.

After the flying boat landed, the Jiang family disciples began to move the ancient vein stones. They were very familiar with the process and were obviously proficient in it.

And Ye Zang walked side by side with the young man, chatting casually.

"My name is Wang Leng. Senior, I look unfamiliar to you. Is this your first time in Julu City?" The young man Wang Leng raised his eyebrows and bowed.

"I used to stay at the Jiang family, exploring rocks all day long. Today I want to go out and see the world." Ye Zang said casually.

"Then you have come to the right place. Julu City is not only the largest neutral fairy city in the northern part of Dongsheng, but Luoying Valley is also going to hold a Taoist meeting recently. Cultivators from all over the world are gathering here. It is very lively. If you want any natural treasures, spiritual objects or magical tools, you can find them in the city."

"Luoying Daohui?" Ye Zang pretended to know nothing and asked, "What is the origin of this Daohui? Can outsiders enter to watch the ceremony?"

"Senior, you may not know that the immortal sects in the five regions of Dongsheng hold similar Taoist meetings every once in a while. In addition to exchanging cultivation experiences and allowing their disciples to discuss the Dao, the most important thing is to distribute the resources and spiritual objects looted from various spiritual places." Wang Leng shook his head and whispered, "These immortal sects have many rules. When acting in Dongsheng, you can offend the six demon sects and they may let you go, but if you have a conflict with someone from the immortal sect, they will not let you go so easily. Not only do they want to beat you in magical powers and Taoism, but they also want you to agree with their cultivation theories. They may even invite you to join the Immortal Alliance."

People from the eight immortal sects have always been keen on passing on knowledge and imparting knowledge.

They have not let go of any independent cultivators or neutral sects over the years. On the contrary, the Six Demonic Sects do not have so many red tape and etiquette. The Six Demonic Sects cannot reason with you and will either kill you or ignore you.

However, the people of the Immortal Alliance will have a team of instructors who specialize in teaching and preaching, and are keen to teach you and answer your questions.

It seems that Wang Leng has had a lot of contact with people from the immortal sect, and he has quite a bit of resentment about this.

As they walked, they walked out of the port and came to the streets of Julu City. Early in the morning, there were already quite a few people walking around, and there were a wide variety of shops of all sizes.

In addition to controlling the secular world and Taoist traditions of Julu City, there are also many independent cultivators who have settled here in order to use the power of Julu City to avoid harassment from the Six Demonic Sects and the Eight Immortal Sects.

Because as the great era is approaching, these sects are taking more and more actions, and they seem to be trying to dominate the Dongsheng Taoism.

"I'll send you here. If you have any inconvenience in the future, Senior Xu, you can come here to find me. I am responsible for the port's affairs on weekdays." Wang Leng said with a bow. "Thank you for leading the way, little brother." Ye Zang nodded.

Ye Zang wandered around the city casually, and then met up with the Jiang family guards.

After they talked for a while, they prepared to leave the Immortal City. Their business this time had been done, and Ye Zang naturally would not leave with them.

After they parted ways completely, Ye Zang plunged into Julu City and began to secretly inquire about the affairs of the Eight Immortal Sects and the Six Demon Sects.

Including the Shendushan family that he cares about the most, this Taoist sect in the central part of Dongsheng is far more complicated than Ye Zang imagined. ^
……

Seven days later, in a certain inn in Julu City, Ye Zang was sitting quietly in his seat, drinking spiritual tea and listening to the Taoists around him talking.

"How much longer?"

"Based on the time for the discussion in previous years, there is only three months left at most."

"We don't have much time left. Now that all the opportunities in the world have disappeared, life is becoming increasingly difficult."

"The competition within the six demon sects is too fierce. Why not go to the Immortal Alliance to have a look? I heard that the northern immortal sect intends to win over powerful independent cultivators during this Luoying Dao Conference."

"You can go into the forest to discuss Dao with a Yuanying level cultivator, but you have to face disciples of the Immortal Alliance. Isn't this just asking for trouble?"

"I don't think these eight sects are that great. They are plotting something overtly. They want to use the Dao Conference to discuss Dao and draw those independent cultivators and neutral sects in. Once they become their people, won't they be able to decide how much cultivation resources to allocate to them according to their rules?"

"Then what do you think we should do? Our cultivation has been stagnant for several years. Without any more cultivation resources, I'm afraid we will die right here."

From the next room, the voices of monks talking could be heard continuously. With Ye Zang's powerful spiritual awareness, the inn's small spirit protection formation could not protect them.

Those cultivators were at the Nascent Soul stage, and judging from their conversations, they seemed to be casual cultivators.

It is already very difficult for a casual cultivator to reach this level of cultivation, and with the advent of a great era, resources are becoming increasingly scarce, and the lifespan of cultivators is also decreasing. If they continue like this, they will only end up dead.

It seems that although Dongsheng Shenzhou still looks peaceful on the surface, the cultivators in various places have actually begun to show signs of decline.

"The more chaotic it is, the better. The more opportunities there are to take advantage of and the more unrest I can stir up..." Ye Zang narrowed his eyes and thought to himself.

This time when he comes to Dongsheng Shenzhou, he is determined to turn the place upside down. Not only that, he also wants to escape unscathed!

Just as Ye Zang was thinking, a noisy sound rang in his ears. The monks in the entire inn seemed to be a little restless, talking among themselves, and they all looked outside.

“Who is that person? It’s such a grand ceremony that the Lin family can personally welcome him. The Lin family is one of the founding families of Julu City.”

"I heard they are from the royal family of Zhongzhou."

"The leading woman is so beautiful. If I could get close to her, it would be so beautiful..."

"Don't even think about it. That woman looks like a royal concubine. You can tell from her cultivation that she is almost reaching the state of unity with the Dao. How could she be attracted to someone like you?"

"Ok?"

Ye Zang raised his eyebrows when he heard this, pushed open the window of the box and looked outside.

On the busy street, pedestrians made way for each other and talked among themselves.

Apart from great sects like the Eight Immortal Sects and the Six Demon Sects, the only ones who could have such a grand display in Julu City were the few Taoist sects and families that founded Julu City.

The leaders this time were several talented disciples of the Lin family.

Behind them was a young man in a gilded Taoist robe. Ye Zang was very familiar with that look. He was the Sixth Prince of the Fengtian Dynasty. The first time Ye Zang saw him was in Dahuang City in southern Xinjiang. This prince even stayed in southern Xinjiang for many years for Nangong Ling. Was he getting what he wanted?
Beside him, a woman in red clothes and with a stunning appearance walked side by side. This woman's every frown and smile seemed to have the ability to charm everyone. A glance from her narrow and slightly curved eyes was like a murderous blade, which made the unstable young man fall for her.

Who else could be so naturally charming and soul-stirring other than Nangong Ling?

On the surrounding streets, many male monks looked at Nangong Ling and couldn't help but lower their heads in inferiority. She was so charming that people couldn't help but look at her, but the more they looked, the more they felt that they were nothing, and they even felt inferior that their gaze would displease her.

"This charm is getting stronger and stronger. What will happen if it advances to the level of He Dao?" Ye Zang took a sip of spiritual tea and raised his eyebrows.

The Sixth Prince beside Nangong Ling is the best example. He was planted with a charm seed by Nangong Ling, which has now penetrated deep into his bone marrow, integrated into his blood and every inch of his skin. He has completely become a puppet, and it is impossible to tell from the outside.

Even for the current Ye Zang, if he does not use his Heavenly Dao Eye with all his strength, it would be impossible to tell that he has been deeply infected with the evil spirit.
