The Taoist ancestor is Cthulhu

Daozu is Cthulhu Chapter 222 Yuntai Peak

It makes sense for the Xiao family to hide their treasure in the ginkgo forest. Because at first glance, this gold and silver tree looks exactly like an ordinary ginkgo. However, this is not a naturally growing tree, but an ingenious man-made magic weapon.

Li Fan walked around the tree three times and could see that the veins on each golden leaf were vivid and lifelike. There were dense inscriptions and seals under the thick trunk of the two people's arms. He could feel that the roots of this precious tree were the same as the ginkgo trees in the entire forest. The trees are all connected together, not only dispersing their own treasure light and preventing their true identity from being easily detected, but it is also equivalent to refining all the ginkgo trees into clones of the treasure. As long as you control this treasure tree, you can control the entire tree. The Dunjia formation diagram in the woods is really quite remarkable.

Fa Jue mentioned before that the Huanyue Treasure Mirror is a magic weapon that opens the door to the Mysterious Sect and is made from the remains of treasures left behind after the death of spirits. This gold and silver treasure tree is definitely a top-grade treasure, but Li Fan did not sense the existence of an 'object' or a weapon spirit. It must be similar to the situation of the Huanyue Treasure Mirror.

Master Li, I have reached an agreement with Master Jingning. You can store the Taoist body in the woods.

Thank you, Taoist friend Lao Cihui.

Cihui, who had received eight thousand gu in intermediary fees, acted as a guarantee. Li Fan himself gave out another thousand gu gold cakes, and also took some Nine-turn Donghua Eternal Spring Pill and Nine-turn Xuanfei Purple Gold Pill as souvenirs. I just stopped by Yuntai Peak to have a look, and Master Jingning, the host of Tiexing Temple, naturally had nothing to say no to. As long as Li Yaoshi, a wanted criminal from the Sunda country, did not cause trouble in her land, and she did not want to offend these murderous people, she agreed to lend him a magic weapon to give him a ride.

According to Cihui, Master Jingning is also a member of the Xiao family. Although she is only at the Nascent Soul realm, her seniority is quite high. She may have been a princess or princess or something. Although she has become a monk and has no interest in worldly affairs, She still has many old friends and connections with Tongxuanmen, and she is also taking care of the gold and silver trees. In this way, the words of the ancestor of the family count. At least the generals of the Zhen Kingdom should not dare to mess around in Tiexing'an.

Li Fan has also been in contact with the Xiao family and knows the family tradition of this family. If they don't like you, they won't be able to get in, but if they are afraid of you, they will be really flattering. Of course, it could also be that the Xiao family went into ptsd upon hearing that he claimed to be a disciple of Beichen Sword Sect...

So Li Fan watched Cihui demonstrate. She took a sachet tied with a red rope, took out two talismans, blew on the talisman, put one talisman in the sachet, and tossed it with her hand. The red rope flew up automatically and was tied to the branch of the gold and silver tree, under a golden leaf. Then she folded another talisman into a triangle and held it under her tongue. She found an apricot tree in the forest and sat cross-legged under it, closing her eyes in trance. . Then the breeze came slowly and wrapped the sky full of yellow leaves around Cihui's body. A bunch of tree roots also wrapped around her and wrapped her into a cocoon. She was pulled and buried under the roots of the ginkgo tree.

Li Fan took a quick look and could feel the aura of Cihui radiating through the ginkgo tree, communicating with heaven and earth, so he knew that probably the other golden elixir monks who came to the meeting also hid their Tao bodies when their souls left the body. Preserved in this forest. This is indeed safe. There are gold and silver treasure trees and the soldiers and horses of the Xiao family guarding the outside. At least it is much safer than setting up a formation by yourself.

So Li Fan also followed the instructions taught by Ci Hui and imitated her practice. He found a ginkgo tree, held the talisman in his mouth and entered meditation. He hid the Taoist body under the tree to preserve it, and the soul flew out of the body.

I remember that when worshiping the Thousand-Faced Immortal, Li Fan closed and opened his eyes and went directly to the moon. This treasure tree is a little bit slower, or it may be that there are too many people pulling it at the same time, so the speed is a little bit slower. Anyway, Li Fan feels like he is shuttling in a golden torrent, speeding with the waves, he There was even time to change the appearance of the soul from Li Fan to Li Yaoshi, and then he was sent to a bright light door and reached his destination.

This is the main mountain of Beichen Sword Sect, Yuntai Peak of Jiuyin Mountain...

Li Fan looked up at the fairy mountain in front of him. How should I put it, he was actually a little disappointed. Because there seems to be no big difference between this place and the Mozhu Mountain Cave Heaven and the Luofeng Mountain Cave Heaven. There are also flying fairy mountains, countless fairy pavilions, fairy birds and rare animals, flying dragons and auspicious clouds. By the way, do you all use the same set of templates when decorating the cave heaven and paradise?

He used his spiritual sense to scan around and made some calculations with his fingers. Li Fan also saw a little bit of heel.

If his calculations were correct, the fairy mountain he saw now should not be the entity of Yuntai Peak. Of course, most of the rocks and buildings were real, but many formations and illusions were used on top of this entity. Outside Yuntai Peak, a fantasy world of cave heaven and paradise is constructed.

The real Yuntai Peak should still be inside the blessed land of the Fairy Mountain. It is probably a treasure house specially used to store treasures. The souls of the outside monks just stay in the illusion outside. If they want to enter the treasure house inside the Fairy Mountain, they may not have enough. It is impossible to ask someone to guide you with ten thousand guan.

Li Fan turned around and looked around, and found that he was also on a fairy island in the sky. There was a ginkgo forest behind him. The branches and leaves in the forest were shining brightly, like an open door of light. This should be a towing passage leading directly to Tiexing Temple. .

After waiting for a while, another figure walked out from the light and shadow in the forest, and a bald monk in white clothes appeared, but his face was completely missing, and a big hole was exposed on his head, just like a cracked eggshell.

Fahui?

The real person has been waiting for a long time. The poor monk's soul is on the verge of disintegration. Please don't take offense. Eh? Have you always been using your true body? It's better for your soul to change and cover up a little bit. Fahui suggested. road.

Oh, as a man, I can change my name or my surname. I, Pharmacist Li, have nothing to be ashamed of. It doesn't matter. Li Fan said frankly.

Fa Hui shrugged, Okay then, Master, come with me, Yuntai Peak is just ahead.

Li Fan followed Fa Hui and jumped off the fairy island. He flew with the strong wind, flew through layers of cumulus clouds, and shuttled among the fairy roads of flying mountains. He saw it from a distance. There was a fairy mountain with flying peaks, a myriad of treasures, and colorful clouds. Surrounded by countless fairy boats and fairy pavilions, it is the most prosperous.

Fahui pointed to a Qingyun with many blue Luanfeng flags on it, like a giant dragon boat road like a palace, The Xiao family's Dharma conference will be held there. The poor monk may be delayed for a few days, but the real person can look around. Look.

If you see a fairy island with three Taoist towers and a peach blossom forest, it is probably the manor on the other side of Huanyue Baojian where the group of female fairies live. The poor monk remembered that the leading female fairy was named Zichai. Maybe some experts in Xuanmen would recognize her. However, the poor monk's spiritual practice is shallow and he doesn't have much spare money. He comes here often and has never met them.

When the ceremony is over, the passage to the gold and silver treasure tree will be closed. Please remember to turn around in time, otherwise you may have to fly all the way back to Gangneung.

Okay, I understand, fellow Taoist, please excuse me.

It's good to know the whereabouts of the Heavenly Book. Sooner or later, we will track it down. This time, we spent so much money to open a map to the main city of Xuanmen. Li Fan planned to walk around first to see the awesomeness of the nine major Xuanmen. What level is it?

So Li Fan wandered around leisurely.

It has been more than five hundred years since the Beichen Sword Sect was exterminated. Now Yuntai Peak has become the Xuanmen office and trading center. All the famous sects in the Central Plains have set up liaison offices here, one after another on the fairy island. embassy. In addition to real people like Li Fan who have left the body of the Nascent Soul, you can occasionally see golden elixirs, and even the souls of monks who build foundations and refine qi. They are probably attracted by Xuanmen magic weapons. It seems that Xuanmen has many gates. ...

Xuantian Jianyi did tell Li Fan a little bit about Xuanmen, but it was all from the old almanac of at least five hundred years ago. It’s unclear how many of them are still relevant now, at least it hasn’t mentioned anything about Yuntai Peak. But generally speaking, some basic backbone parts will not become too much.

From the source, Xuanmen was originally an armed uprising army that followed Xuannv to resist the tyranny of the Immortal Palace. In fact, there have always been such rebel armies. They are essentially the same as Moshan, Lou Guandao, and even the Luo Jiao Black Lotus Sect. They belong to the definition of Immortal Palace and are illegal heretic rebel organizations. However, most of the rebels were defeated or expelled overseas.

The Xuanmen batch is the first batch, or the only batch, to win against the Immortal Palace. Moreover, it was a direct battle. Under the leadership of Xuannv, they marched all the way into Sanyuan, screwing the head of the Immortal Emperor at that time. After this battle, the direct lineage of the Immortal Lord was killed and the inheritance was cut off. The four sects were hit hardest, and the whole country was completely shaken. He became a puppet of the noble family, and the eight vassal kingdoms also refused to accept the kingship and began to fight for their own civil strife. There was no great emperor who could revive the Immortal Palace.

However, Xuannv had no interest in changing dynasties, so she ascended to the throne after leaving behind the Nine Heavenly Books. The remaining followers of Xuannv passed on the nine heavenly books as Xuannv's disciples and began the serious inheritance of immortality.

Until Xuannv's Heavenly Book was seized by the God Lord, Xuanmen had always been an existence similar to the Traditional Culture Academic Committee. All these people want is to ascend like Xuannv, and they have no interest in ruling the world. Therefore, Xuanmen is not a compulsory organization. It is more like a reading club that gathers every few years to study Xuannv's heavenly book.

Also because the Heavenly Book is so mysterious, nine reading groups were divided into nine reading groups according to the Nine Xuannv Heavenly Books from the beginning, and when recruiting disciples, those geniuses with excellent understanding aptitudes and the possibility of comprehending the Heavenly Book were specially selected. In ordinary times, the Taoist elders regularly organize five arts assessments to encourage the younger generation to interpret and master the Heavenly Book. This is the prototype of the nine Taoist gates.

Later, naturally there would be differences in the interpretation of the Heavenly Book, so many side sects were derived. However, everyone worshiped Xuannv and practiced the authentic immortal way of Xuannv. Naturally, it became its own Xuanmen sect. The more people there were, the higher the seniority. Now, the rules are tightened, and these elites are indeed strong enough, Xuanmen has gradually become a powerful force that cannot be ignored in the world.

Later, there was an uproar between the divine master and the divine sect snatching Xuannv's heavenly book. Xuanmen joined forces with the divine sect several times to seize the book, and gradually formed the leadership framework of the nine major Xuanmen.

Theoretically speaking, all Taoist factions have equal status. Anyone who joins Taoism can speak at the Heavenly Book Conference to win support from other factions. However, compared with today's giants like Emei, compared with some sects that were wiped out until only a few or two were left, and are only remembered from time to time when they take the blame, the gap in strength does exist objectively, so there is no absolute of equality.

Therefore, those who are generally in the leadership position of Taoism are selected from the nine strongest sects at the Heavenly Book Conference. These nine factions form a standing council-type body.

It is up to the leaders of these nine major sects, as well as the core elders and disciples of the nine major sects, to discuss and decide on various policies and strategies of Xuanmen, organize disciples to respond to tribulations, conduct assessments and evaluations of the five arts, allocate resources in various cave heavens and blessed lands, and coordinate the suppression and crusade against demons. Monsters, dealing with the competition between the Asgard and the cult groups, and more.

Today's nine major sects are Emei Mountain, Hengshan Mountain, Songshan Mountain, Maoshan Mountain, Huotong Mountain, Wangwu Mountain, Danxia Mountain, ** Mountain and Penglai Mountain.

Of course, there are ancient sects under Xuanmen with unfathomable strength such as Qingcheng Mountain, Taiyi Mountain, and Daiyue Mountain. They are also famous in the Central Plains, and are not necessarily inferior to the current nine major sects. It's just that these sects may not appear on the list of the nine major sects every session because their heads are practicing in seclusion, or their key disciples are involved in important matters, or they are busy forging swords and refining elixirs. . Or small and medium-sized sects, occasionally one or two brilliant leaders will replace the old man of the ancient immortal sect.

Of course, you must choose the strongest one. Nowadays, in almost every session, there are giants from the nine major Xuanmen. Their comprehensive strength is worthy of being the strongest Xuanmen sect today, and that is Emei, bar none.

This can be seen just by looking at the Immortal Island on Yuntai Peak. The largest and highest Immortal Mountain is the Emei Sect's office. The largest number of monks gather around the Immortal Mountain to visit and ask for an audience. The real person of Nascent Soul also has to wait at the door.

Li Fan could see from his breath that the other eight monks stationed at Yuntai Peak were all at the realm of spiritual transformation, but their aura was still a bit inferior to that of Emei. I am afraid that the monks sent by Emei to guard Yuntai Peak were all at the realm of enlightenment. Is he the boss?

In short, Li Fan walked around twice, which was just a glimpse of the strength of the three major factions. After calculating the number of Nascent Souls and Soul Transformation cultivators perceived by each fairy mountain, we finally came to an obvious conclusion. Mozhu Mountain is really a rural place...

Yeah, I thought it was a copy, but it turned out to be Dragon's Lair.

Li Fan couldn't find any fairy island with three Tao pagodas and a peach forest for a while. Some fairy islands were also shrouded in a restrictive fog, probably because there was no one inside at the moment. He simply changed his mind and found someone.

Although Yuntai Peak is vast and there are many monks, compared to the mortal world, it is actually at the level of a village or town, with at most a thousand people. There probably aren't that many monks who stay at Yuntai Peak for free, right? There must be one or two people who have heard of the name Purple Hairpin, right?

So Li Fan sensed a fairy island where more than a dozen monks gathered from a distance, so he flew over to investigate. Flying closer, I found that it was a platform square. There is no trace of illusion on it. It is just a piece of fairy island, paved with a thick layer of white bricks, as flat as shaved tofu cubes.

If Li Fan guessed correctly, it should be the ancient ruins and sword fighting field left over from the Beichen Sword Sect era that Xuantian Sword Yi often misses.

Tsk tsk, look at this floor tile, how flat and white it is. After all, it is a place used for sword fighting. It has experienced wind, frost, thunder, and swords, and it has not moved at all. Five hundred years of wind and frost are nothing.

It's a pity that these dozen Yuanying monks gathered here not to fight swords, but to play chess. What a waste of such a flat land...

Li Fan cursed and flew over to look around. The monks ignored him and were still concentrating on their own deductions. The chess pieces they use are similar to chess pieces, but they are as big as a futon, and they also have people's names written on them. Li Fan glanced at several acquaintances he had heard of and saw a lot of Nangong so-and-so, so he knew what they were pushing.

This simulates the battlefield of Kun Kingdom.

The vanguard of the Lei tribe led by Wen Tianjun is represented by the black flag and the thunder eagle flag, followed by the right general of Immortal Palace and the Xisu Guards of Junqi Shenjun, who is represented by the white flag and white tiger flag. On the left wing in the south, the Eunuch flag and the purple chess pieces should be the reinforcements of the Sunda Kingdom. The leader of the army is written as Lu Jie, who is probably a member of the Lu family of the four great clans. On the right wing of the north is the Qingluan flag of the Zhen Kingdom. The leader is a clan king named Xiao Xuanda. Wang Juncai's name is also among the pile of chess pieces. Each chess piece probably represents a Nascent Soul general or the combat power of a unit. Bar.

There are two groups to the south of the main battlefield here. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net The Suzaku flag and yellow wooden chess pieces have a bunch of Nangong written in white, so they naturally belong to the Nangong family. Further south, the Liguo army was also represented by the Suzaku flag, but the names written in black letters on the chess pieces should refer to Mozhushan Yibo.

Facing these six armies of the Immortal Palace are the elite soldiers of the divine religion represented by red flags and red chess pieces. Except for a small number of people who are with the Nangong family on the outer battlefield, most of them are confronting the main force of the Immortal Palace. Of course, it is a confrontation. They should be fighting fiercely now. It seems that the army of the Lei Department has completely rushed into the formation of the divine sect. He quickly broke the enemy in front of him in two and intercepted him at the waist.

Okay, okay, looks like I won...

Li Fan was about to step forward to talk and ask these monks if they had heard of Zi Chai's name, but he was suddenly stunned.

Because he saw another monk suddenly flying over, and with a wave of his hand, he added a lot of red chess pieces to the chessboard, surrounding the Lei Department's sunspots!

But among the dozen or so monks present, none of them were shocked by this change. They just calculated silently with expressionless faces, as if they were still waiting for some news.

Then several more monks came over and took away a large number of white pieces from the chessboard, almost half of them! It is obvious that the white Xisu Guards are under the protection of friendly forces, but there is such a strange change. Either the Immortal Palace army fell into some scheme and suffered some serious casualties, or...

Bah! The majestic Nishiju Guards! Only 8,000 old troops came out! The rest are just newbies who made up the numbers! They are all on empty wages! They will be exposed in a tough battle!

A monk in blue with a round and fat head suddenly appeared on the field, kicked away the chess piece with the word Jun Kao Shenjun written on it, and cursed,

The number of the divine cult is wrong too! Count it! Count it all! How many people are here! Where did they come from!
