Chapter 365: The Line of Taoism

There are more than one talisman tower, and the main tower where the chief is located is the tallest. From a distance, more than a dozen towers look like a small winter forest with dead leaves falling. They are too tall and there is almost no extra foil at their feet. The palace not far away is nominally the center of the imperial capital, but no matter how you look at it, it looks like a grass with poor scenery and unpopular interest.

Chen Hao looked back and said, "Have you ever thought that Xin Youtao really changed? Long Binhui may be stronger than we thought before. Xin Youtao has never been a strong person. He came to Huangjing from Pangshan, helpless and shouldered the heavy responsibility of the Xijie royal family, and then... he had to make changes to protect himself."

Chen Hao's expression was dim. He had similar experiences when he was a teenager. He had to make choices against his will under the pressure of his uncle, so he could understand how difficult it is to truly resist.

"Maybe everyone will change, and it is also possible that he did it on purpose, hoping to use this method to push us out of the danger he is in."

"The latter statement sounds warm, but it doesn't look like Xin Youtao at all." Chen Hao smiled and shook his head, "The Xin Youtao in my impression will urgently ask everyone for help when he encounters a little danger. His sister, you, me, and Xiao Qingtao, and maybe Yang Qingyin."

"So I want to figure out what's going on. Everyone will change, but there is always a reason that is either light or dark. Xin Youtao did not: He has only been away from Pangshan and joined the Longbin Society for a year, and it has only been more than a month since he was interrupted from contact with the princess. Time is not the reason why he changed; he is a Taoist priest in the realm of Gu Xia, so there is no need to be afraid of the talisman master, and strength is not the reason why he changes; he is a prince, and he has learned the importance of making friends with a wide range of friends since he was a child. The more he is in a crisis, the more he should use his former acquaintances. Why did he break his arm and even send a secretly murderous talisman to his own sister?"

"You deliberately mentioned the inner alchemy. Is it to divert the Longbin Society's attention so that they think you don't care about Xin Youtao?" Chen Hao looked up and said, "I think you have succeeded. Qu Xungui is very angry. This flying talisman in the sky always follows us."

"I hope Longbin will take the initiative, so that it will be easier to expose his strength." Mu Xingqiu admitted that although he also wanted to find out the details between Ding Wei and Longbin, what he cared about the most was Xin Youtao.

"I really don't understand how the relationship between the Taoist dynasty and the Longbin Society was determined. Why do I feel that it is completely indulgent? Is it recorded in "Qiankun Ding"?"

Mu Xingqiu shook his head. "Qiankun Ding" only records the agreement without explaining it. He also had the same feeling. The Nine Daotong gave Longbinhui a lot of rights, and he retreated further and further, and even did not care about worldly affairs. Of course, a quiet environment is required for practice, but this is still not enough to explain this unequal relationship. The Daotong clearly has an absolute advantage. However, he gave nearly all worldly responsibilities to the weak Longbinhui.

After passing through a secluded street and alley, the two returned to the quiet gym area and had little contact with the ordinary residents of the imperial capital.

From a distance, the two saw a group of people standing in front of the gate of a certain gymnasium. The bald man was talking in a spirit. He attracted bursts of laughter, without the reserve of the Taoist priest at all.

Mu Xingqiu quickly pulled Chen Hao around another road, but he didn't want to be called by the bald man to show it in public.

"Bald bastard, you are promoting the past when you defeated me again." Chen Hao sighed helplessly. "When I was a child, I thought he would be a traitor sooner or later, and it was true."

"Ha ha."

"But the bald man is really popular, which is also a good thing. The enthusiasm of the lower Taoist priests has been aroused, and the demon-slaying will definitely accomplish great things." Chen Hao was also a little excited, "I really hope Xin Youtao will return to normal soon and can join the battle with us."

Another road back to Pangshan Taoist Hall was also not quiet. Several female Taoist priests from Luanjingshan walked towards him. Bai Qing called out Mu Xingqiu's name from afar, making him unable to hide.

Bai Qing walked straight up, and her friends deliberately slowed down. She glanced at Chen Hao and said in a very formal tone: "Fellow Taoist, no matter what the result of combining the instrument and discussing Taoism, all members of the Demon Slaying Association of Luanjingshan support you as the leader."

"Thank you." Mu Xingqiu nodded and greeted.

"We support you not only because you have helped Luanjing Mountain, but we believe that you can firmly grasp the demon-slaying in the hands of the Taoist priests without falling into the hands of others."

Bai Qing and others walked away, Chen Hao said: "You have guessed it, and someone has already seen the problems of Ding Wei and Long Binhui."

In the courtyard of Pangshan Taoist Hall, Yang Qingyin was speaking to a group of new Taoist priests of Pangshan, "Three days later, we will discuss the Tao. Mu Xingqiu will become the leader of the Demon Slaying Society. What else do you have to hesitate? Join the Demon Slaying Society immediately. Pangshan is the one who benefits from declaring war on the demon clan. We disciples cannot stand by and let other Taoist priests joke."

"It is certain to join the Demon-Slaying Association, but we heard on the way that the competition among the leaders is very fierce. At least three Taoist sects publicly support Yang Qingyuan of Qishan, and only our Pang Shan family supports Mu Xingqiu..."

"There are also the Luanjing Mountains, they just made a promise." Chen Hao strode over, "The other three Taoist rulings are waiting and watching. Whoever wins a great victory in the art of combining tools and discussing Taoism will support whoever I have. I have a match with Mu Xingqiu, and I can guarantee you that even if Yang Qingyuan is covered with talismans, he is not Mu Xingqiu's opponent."

There were more than 20 new Taoist priests, all of whom were disciples of the Five Elements Department. They were very excited by Yang Qingyin and Shen Hao and looked at Mu Xingqiu together.

"It's time to take back the Pang Shan ancestral land. No matter who is the leader of the Demon Slaying Society, I will definitely rush to the front with you..."

Mu Xingqiu said a few words, and the Taoist priests asked one after another. Some were curious about how powerful the illusion of the mind was. Some were voluntarily acted as lobbyists and persuaded the three unconclusive Taoist sects to express their support for Mu Xingqiu in advance. After they all received satisfactory answers, everyone began to discuss the details of the war. At this moment, Yang Qingyin whispered to Mu Xingqiu: "Shen Jixian is waiting for you in the study. He must know the Demon Slaying Society. Don't let him interfere."

Shen Jixian is the first leader of the Five Elements Department of Pangshan. He has been acting as the Grandmaster in the past few years. The official Grandmaster just emerged half a month ago. After he stepped down, he rushed to the imperial capital immediately, which surprised Mu Xingqiu.

There were not many books in the study room of the gym, and there were more than a dozen cauldrons of different sizes. They didn't ignite for a while and looked cold.

Shen Jixian sat on the cushion and closed his eyes to rest. He heard the knock on the door outside and did not open his eyes immediately. It took a while before the round of breathing adjustment was over, "Come in."

Mu Xingqiu pushed the door and showed the Taoist ritual to Shen Jixian, "The first seat is looking for me?"

"Yes." Shen Jixian pointed to another cushion opposite and signaled Mu Xingqiu to sit down, "You and Shen Hao have just been to the Talisman Tower?"

"Yes, we just came back from there." Mu Xingqiu was even more surprised, "Go to visit a friend, Xin Youtao."

"Don't go again in the future." Shen Jixian said casually, but left no room for negotiation.

Mu Xingqiu was silent for a while. "If I did not violate any rules, I hope I know the reason."

Shen Jixian looked at Mu Xingqiu, his beard was as white as snow, and his luster was even a little dazzling. He was considering whether to say too much to a breath-taking Taoist priest, "You did a good job in Duanliu City and made great contributions to Pangshan."

Although everyone remembers the war in Duanliu City, Mu Xingqiu would rather forget it completely.

"This time I did a good job in the imperial capital, and the Demon-Slaying Association should be controlled by a Taoist priest Pangshan." Shen Jixian did not ask any questions at all. He directly mentioned the Demon-Slaying Association.

"There are no fewer people who oppose me than those who support me, the outcome is unpredictable, and the Demon-Slaying Demons will not want higher Taoist priests to intervene."

"A higher Taoist priest is such a strange title. Taoist priest has never had such a rule. I don't know when, everyone added the word "higher" in front of Taoist priests above Xingluo. In fact, Taoist priest Xingluo doesn't even have the chance to leave a name in the ancestor's tower. What kind of Taoist priest?" Shen Jixian put his hands on his knees, bent his waist slightly, and suddenly looked old. "We will not interfere in the affairs of the Demon Slaying Association. It is a great blessing for Taoist priests to have this fighting spirit. We will only watch with cherishing."

The high Taoist priests had such an attitude towards the Demon Slaying Association, which was something Mu Xingqiu didn't expect, "I think everyone will be very happy to hear this news."

"Don't say that not everyone can accurately understand the subtlety, just know it yourself."

"Yes." Mu Xingqiu understood that Shen Jixian treated himself as a "high Taoist priest".

Shen Jixian straightened his waist, "The powerful demon king could easily destroy a mountain. They destroyed it in large numbers, and then drove the slaves to pick up the exposed treasures. It was very fast, but the waste was extremely serious. A large number of gold, silver, copper, iron, flowers, plants and trees were destroyed in ashes. After the Taoist sect won the victory, he learned from the lessons of the demons and decided to collect materials from the world in another way. The early Taoist priests made many attempts. As far as I know, the Ninxin Catalog was brilliant at that time. Those female Taoist priests could easily control the thinking of mortals and let them willingly plant flowers and mining. But strangely, although mortals were obedient, their efficiency was extremely low and they were easily dying."

"The Taoist sect at that time didn't seem to be much different from the legendary demons."

"Haha, the difference is quite big. You can't explain it clearly for a few words, so you don't have to take it seriously. Later, the ambition of the Minxin Department expanded and was eliminated. The Taoist dynasty decided to change another way, so the Talisman Department went out independently and established the Longbin Society."

"Most of the talisman masters of the Longbin Society do not have inner elixirs, and they will never have the ambition to defeat the Taoist throne."

"It's almost the same. Another point is that the power of Taoism is too powerful. It is very effective in governing weak mortals. The same is true. The devil can destroy mountains but cannot keep things in the mountains. Taoists can destroy cities but cannot tell who is guilty and who is innocent one by one."

"Longbin will not manage it well, and the ambition of the talisman master has not completely disappeared. They want to live forever and do whatever they want."

"But this is not a question that Taoist sect should be concerned about. As long as the number of mortals increases and the materials produced do not decrease, the Longbin Society is qualified. Taoist sect will not interfere with the internal affairs of Longbin Society. Everything you see and guess is just a repetition that has happened repeatedly in the history of tens of thousands of years. Let them solve it themselves. Even if Xin Youtao is your best friend, he is no longer a Taoist priest Pangshan, and you have no right to help him."

"What if other Taoist priests have already participated in the affairs of the Longbin Society?"

Shen Jixian smiled slightly, "You can fight back, but you can't provoke. Remember, there is a line here, and no one can tell the exact position, but as long as you take half a step, you will cause a catastrophe."

Mu Xingqiu stood up, "For me, that line is at the feet of my friend."
