Chapter 402: Pressure from various factions, the end of the road? As Master Feixian said, when they noticed the unusual gathering of forces of Jiuchong Mountain, Taxu Palace, Jile Palace, and Zaohua Gate have gathered together to investigate and found out that the Mortal Trinity Gate established 1,300 years ago was one of the branches that escaped that year. Even after a thousand years, they still want to uproot their archenemy's Taoist heritage. More importantly, in the era of heaven and earth revival, the Trinity disciples are undoubtedly the best tools for cultivation. Through the Trinity True Method, they can absorb the spiritual energy of all things and make them into nourishing medicines to help them practice. The risk is far less than invading the demon king's territory and seizing spiritual springs and exotic fruits for consumption, but the effect is similar. On May 5, the four chief sect leaders, each accompanied by ten elders and elite members of their sect, left the temple and went to the imperial capital to hold talks with the Feixian chief sect leader who was stationed there. The strong men from the Security Council and the Nine Departments who wanted to interfere and supervise were isolated outside the barrier. In the Taoist palace where incense was burning and tranquility was in full swing, the sound of bells echoed slowly. Sect Leader Feixian received the four sect leaders and elders and arranged for them to sit down in the hall. "Hello, fellow Taoists." “Yes, I have.” After the two sides exchanged pleasantries and went through the formalities, the headmaster of Jiuchong Mountain asked directly without beating around the bush: "Brother Dao, do you know why we are here? We just want your opinion. Do you want to take care of this matter or not?" The Sanyi Sect is under the jurisdiction of China, and several of its disciples are the highest leaders of the Nine Departments and the presidents of the Security Council. If these sects want to take action, they have to give some face to the Feixian Sect and dare not go too far.
The Lord of Jile Palace, who was sitting at the seat, stared away. He had a conflict with the head of Feixian Sect. This time, he came only to play a supporting role. He was unwilling to speak and just waited for the other party's reply. "You guys should resolve your grievances among yourselves." "But every blade of grass, every tree, every person, and every thing in this Kyushu region must not be harmed. Please do not ruin my painstaking efforts." The headmaster of Feixian said in a gentle voice, with an irresistible force. After hearing his statement, the four masters finally felt relieved. The leader of the Creation Sect said meaningfully: "In that case, thank you, Brother Dao. We will deal with the mortal who is hindering your practice." "random." The headmaster Feixian smiled indifferently and said: "Go ahead and put pressure on them, whether by coercion or bribery. First, remove them from their official positions. This matter will draw a clear line between you and me. As for what you should do, you know it well." "it is good." The four masters all agreed. That afternoon, senior officials from the Nine Ministries and the Security Council were invited by the Four Sects and the Feixian Sect to start a meeting. Citing past grudges, the Four Sects demanded that the Sanyi Sect be wiped out and that the Nine Departments and the Security Council not interfere, and that Lu Jin, Yu Huai, Xian Shu, and Lin Qi be stripped of their positions. During this period, no matter how the top leaders of the Nine Ministries and the Security Council advised them, the Four Sects refused to give in and insisted on liquidating the Sanyi Sect, saying that if the Nine Ministries and the Security Council dared to stop them, they would have to be prepared to face an unbearable price. Ning He and other responsible persons, seeing that chaos was about to break out, humbly requested help from Sect Leader Feixian, but all they got was indifference and a slight shake of the head. All the senior officials were speechless. They were simply unable to stop these brutal and cruel aliens. The headmaster of Jiuchong Mountain looked around at the senior leaders present. Some were angry, some were forbearing. He smiled calmly and said: "Of course, as long as you make compromises, we don't mind giving you the same protection in the future. It's a good deal, right?" "." Some people felt as if sitting on pins and needles, vaguely shaken, while some high-level officials looked at the head of Jiuchong Mountain with increasingly cold eyes.
Sect Leader Feixian looked indifferent as he watched the show. He was paying special attention to the white-haired men sitting not far away, wondering what choices they would make. In the dead silence, the four active Trinity disciples, after exchanging their opinions, stood up simultaneously. Yu Huai looked directly at the headmaster of Jiuchong Mountain and said word by word: "What a good deal. Can you trust your words?" “Keep your word.” The leader of Jiuchong Mountain was fearless. He turned to look at the head of Feixian Sect and asked sincerely: "Brother Dao, why don't you be a witness here? If one party violates the contract, you will deal with it impartially." "can." The headmaster Feixian agreed and warned in a cold voice: "This matter is only related to Trinity Sect. You must not harm anyone else." "Well, we have a sense of propriety." The four masters took the opportunity to put forward a new request: "Three days. I will give you three days. All members of the Trinity Sect must appear inside the Trinity Sect and wait for our arrival." "Really? If you want to settle accounts, then it's as you wish." Yu Huai smiled faintly, without losing his composure from beginning to end. He seemed to have become much more relaxed. He sighed slightly and said in a loud voice: "Today, I voluntarily resign my position in the Supernatural Administration." "I voluntarily resign as president of the Security Council." "I voluntarily resign from my position as head of the Extraterrestrial Life Research Institute." "I voluntarily resign as the head of the Ancient Relics Exploration Department." Lu Jin and the other two followed closely behind without any reluctance. After he finished speaking, all the senior executives hung their heads, feeling ashamed that their colleagues had been forced into such a predicament, and they were helpless to do anything about it. Yu Huai and Xian Shu left the table one after another and walked to the door of the conference room. Lu Jin couldn't help but stop and looked back, his eyes fixed on the face of Feixian Sect Leader, and said: "If you also feel that we are blocking your way, why not come together in three days." "Zhuzi, you are arrogant!" Elder Xiao was furious and wanted to open his mouth to scold, but was stopped. Feixian Sect Leader's eyes were calm and without any disturbance. He responded politely: "My dear Lu, now that you have spoken, I am afraid I cannot refuse your kindness. Three days later, I will come to the scene in person to see that the grudge between you two is settled." "." Lu Jin said nothing and turned away. The figures of the four people suddenly turned into bright white light and disappeared, completely drawing a clear line between themselves and the Nine Departments and the Security Council. The whole place was dead silent. Most of the senior leaders felt as if they had been hit hard in the chest. They couldn't help feeling sad. Even a strong sect like the Trinity Sect could be slaughtered at will by these hidden sects, let alone them, who were in an equally dangerous situation.
May 5, evening. It was a bleak evening at Trinity Gate. All the disciples who had been wandering around were summoned by Cheng Zhen to return. In the Sutra Repository, Si Chong, Shui Yun, Sheng Sheng, Li Qing, Yan Gu and Yun Feng, the elite of the previous generation, were all present, including 3 from the Mesozoic era and 5 disciples of the younger generation. Even the guardian Will in the underground research institute received a notice that a sect conference would be held. There are 20 people in total, all assembled. Cheng Zhen did not waste time and told him in detail everything that had happened recently. "In two days, the five great forces from the outside world, namely, the Paradise Palace, the Nine-fold Mountain, the Stepping Void Palace, the Creation Sect, and the Feixian Sect, will come to our sect. By then, a war will be inevitable." "Gentlemen, you can go or stay as you wish. I will not force you." "Brother, we are willing to fight to the death." "Uncle Master, please let me stay!" "Master, I wish to stay with the sect!" "." Cheng Zhen took out a stack of white talisman papers from his arms and distributed them to all the disciples. "The effect of the talisman is the same. It will allow you to escape overseas in an instant and avoid this disaster." "If you want to leave, you can do so at any time. There is no need to feel any psychological burden. I understand you all." "Brother, what are you talking about! I have been adopted by the sect since I was young and I will never leave." Shuiyun frowned. He had survived the difficult times in the last century, so how could he be afraid of this crisis? "This gift is not necessary." Weier pushed the talisman paper back to Chengzhen to show his determination. The research efforts of the second half of his life were buried deep in the sect, and with the care and concern over the past seventy years, he no longer wanted to leave. For him, death is never something to be feared. Some things are far more important than life, such as dignity and promises. Inside the pavilion, everyone was very excited and not a single disciple left, all determined to defend the place to the death. Cheng was really comforted and moved, and ordered them to go down and prepare for the battle. In the end, only the older generation, Si Chong, followed him downstairs and hiked through the mountains and forests to a forbidden area of the sect. As night fell, the two of them were walking on a secluded path, and Cheng Zhen told Si Chong everything he knew without reservation. "So there is a grudge in the past?" "Alas, fortunately, my junior brother has a plan, otherwise we would be in danger." Si Chong suddenly felt disappointed. Even today, he had reached the second level of Xuanming cultivation, but facing the leaders of the five sects, he was still not good enough. "I wonder if Master Uncle is safe now."
Cheng Zhen's eyes showed worry. He cared more about Jiang Mo's situation than the vague and bizarre origin of the sect. "Wow, you little guy, are you still worried about him?" "Your uncle is always calm and steady when doing things. How could he rush in without any confidence?" "Besides, no matter how powerful the residual soul in the secret realm is, can it defeat him, who is at the 6th level of Xuan Ming?" Si Chong was extremely confident in Jiang Mo, and his face lit up with pride whenever he mentioned him. "You're right. Maybe I'm overthinking it." Cheng Zhen smiled with shame. As the owner of the last memory before Jiang Mo left, he witnessed the whole process of the destruction of Taiqing Palace. But he didn't believe that the evil ghosts and resentful spirits in the sect ruins could shake his uncle. Before they knew it, the two arrived at the pond in the back mountain where Jiang Mo was in seclusion. The night was cold and the forest was silent. "That's it?" He asked suspiciously, feeling inexplicably palpitating. The closer he got, the more his body stiffened instinctively. "Ah." Cheng Zhen took a few steps forward, raised his hands in greeting, half-knelt on the ground, and used Qi to transmit sound in front of the pond. Following the steps in his memory, he called out sincerely: "Uncle Master, our sect is in trouble. I beg you to come out and wipe out the enemies." In an instant, a pair of dark eyes slowly opened at the bottom of the dark pool. A familiar voice, mixed with an invisible force, spread like ripples. Jiang Mo's second true body fully revived, waves splashed in the pool, revealing a slender figure, and the terrifying and majestic aura suppressed the entire world. "This" "Is this him?!" Si Chong looked horrified and his voice was trembling. The young man who appeared before him looked 80% similar to Jiang Mo, but more handsome, almost demonic, with eyes as deep as the abyss, black hair like a waterfall, and very evil. Just looking at him made him tremble with fear. This is completely different from the blazing silver Dharmakaya that we have seen in the past! "It's him." Cheng Zhen's lips curled up as he proudly introduced: "This is the second true body that my uncle has cultivated. It has no consciousness and can only protect the sect instinctively. I need to chant a spell to wake it up. Its strength is as strong as his in person, or even stronger." Si Chong was shocked beyond words, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and cold sweat broke out on his face. The oppressive feeling given to him by this Dharma body was so strong, it was so perfect that there was no flaw to be found. "Master uncle said that he has always been here." Cheng Zhen's eyes were filled with coldness, and he stroked his hand and smiled: "Let those guys who claim to be superior to others clean their necks and wait." "It's not certain who is scheming against whom." (End of this chapter)
