After leaving the study after finishing his conversation with Shen Jixian, Mu Xingqiu began to think about one thing: whether his hands and feet were liberated or bound?

It is not surprising at all that the high Taoist priests had already noticed the existence of the Demon-Slaying Society, but they just observed it secretly and never made public statements. Mu Xingqiu believed that probably all the masters or chiefs of the Taoist priests had supported their disciples in some way to compete for the dominance of the Demon-Slaying Society with some means. This was a way to let go.

The relationship between the Taoist dynasty and the Longbin Society was more complicated than he thought. Mu Xingqiu had never seen the Longbin Society sending things to the Taoist dynasty. In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will understand that this is inevitable. The nine immortal mountains occupied by the Taoist dynasty are only nine small dots, and the output is insignificant. Without a large amount of materials provided by the outside world, even if you just make the most ordinary magic weapon, you may have to travel all over the world.

Mu Xingqiu understood a little why Taoist priests who had the three levels of breathing had to make their own magic weapons. It was probably an ancient tradition, allowing Taoists to understand how troublesome it is to do everything by themselves, and gradually evolved into an easy trip - the materials they got were all semi-finished, and if they started from scratch, it would take several years or even more than ten years.

Mu Xingqiu is a Taoist priest, so he consciously considers the issue from the perspective of Taoism, so that Longbin can manage mundane affairs is indeed not a perfect choice, but it is very effective. Mu Xingqiu never likes such a real world, but he doesn't want to change it. Everyone has their own place. He thinks that this is a hundred times better than the demons who directly turn humans into slaves.

However, the hidden meaning in Shen Jixian's words made Mu Xingqiu feel deeply uneasy. As long as Long Binhui could still provide various resources in accordance with regulations, the Taoist Tong seemed to not care about the talisman master's misconduct, and was even willing to make a little sacrifice if necessary. Mu Xingqiu was worried that Xin Youtao would unfortunately become a victim.

It was in this matter that he felt his hands and feet were bound.

Yang Qingyin walked towards him, "What did Shen Jixian say? Are you prohibited from participating in the Demon-Slaying Association?"

"No, he told me not to go to Longbin again and find Xin Youtao."

"How can Longbin be so capable? Can he actually let the head of the Five Elements Department speak for them?" Yang Qingyin was very surprised, then shook her head. She was not very interested in this matter. "Forget it, Xin Youtao is not a child, he knows what he is doing."

Mu Xingqiu smiled and said nothing. Yang Qingyin and Xin Youtao were never friends. Of course there was no need to let her participate. "Why did Shen Jixian come to Huangjing suddenly? It must have been not specially taught me a lesson for Long Bin."

Yang Qingyin curled her lips and looked at Zuo Liuying's room. Since he arrived in Huangjing, he had not taken a step out of the room and had no contact with the lower Taoist priests. "It's probably for him. Don't worry, let them solve the troubles of higher Taoist priests by themselves. We have enough things to do. Come with me, there is some new news about your opponent."

"Yang Qingyuan? I still don't understand. There are more than 100 people participating in the art of combining the instruments. There are more than ten people who are competing to be the leader of the Demon Slaying Society. Why did he and I become the biggest enemies?"

"Hey, isn't this obvious?" Yang Qingyin took the lead in walking towards the backyard. "The Taoist priest of Qishan lobbied from house to house. He persuaded many people to support Yang Qingyuan. Now everyone knows that he will challenge you in the theory of artifacts. It's too late for us, Pangshan to take action, and you have to work hard. You have to take time to go to various gyms today and tomorrow. Those who say they support Yang Qingyuan may change their minds."

"I have such great influence?" Mu Xingqiu asked with a smile.

Yang Qingyin turned her head to look at him. She frowned slightly, with a serious face, "Don't take it seriously, it's not your decision to fight for the position of leader. Pangshan's disciples are running around for this, so Chen Hao won't say anything. In order to support you, even breaking with Yang Qingyuan and the others, Xiao Qingtao went out last night and just came back. He ran all over the other seven Taoist priests to say good things for you and inquire about it. The bald man is still floating outside to promote you..."

"Yes, you are right. I should be more serious. I will visit various Taoist dynasties later. Let's discuss and formulate a sequence. I want to start with the riot of Jingshan and consolidate their support..."

Yang Qingyin nodded with satisfaction, "Yeah, Xiao Qingtao has communicated for you. You don't need to go to Wangshan, and it's useless to go to Qishan. Other Taoist sects welcome you."

More than 30 Taoist priests of Pangshan were arguing fiercely in a side hall. When they saw Mu Xingqiu stopping, Xiao Qingtao said loudly: "Brother Xiaoqiu, you have to be careful. Yang Qingyuan not only used amulets this time, but also got offensive talismans, which were similar to those used by Lan Bingkuk."

"The attacking talisman can only be used by himself. Lan Bingku has the Fire Sacrifice Seal, but Yang Qingyuan does not. He cannot exert the effect of the talisman." Chen Hao understood Yang Qingyuan's situation and expressed doubts about Xiao Qingtao's statement.

"I don't understand talismans. I just heard that Yang Qingyuan tried to attack with talismans in a battle inside Qishan. It was extremely powerful. The Taoist priest who competed with him immediately withdrew. Moreover, he was sacrificing talismans three miles away, and the distance was relatively far, Brother Xiao Qiu..."

"Is your news accurate?" Chen Hao asked in confusion. The two of them were the ones who had just had the argument.

“Absolutely reliable!”

Xiao Qingtao took advantage of his special identity. There were very few non-demon disciples in the Taoist dynasty. Because of this, they kept in touch with each other and formed a close small group, trusting and helping each other. Xiao Qingtao believed in this source of information and felt that there was no need to lie in this matter.

Mu Xingqiu walked into the Taoist priests, "It may be so. Yang Qingyuan temporarily obtained the Fire Sacrifice Seal and removed it after a while, and the impact on the inner alchemy will not be too great."

Mu Xingqiu once removed the divine seal on Xin Youtao's back with his own hands because he immediately thought of this possibility.

The discussion about talismans has become more lively, and many people have the same doubts. Talismans are so useful - even if there is a conflict between the Fire God Seal and its own inner alchemy, it may also allow the talisman master to sacrifice talismans. Taoist priests enjoy the benefits of talismans, even if it is just to enhance the protective power - Why did the Taoist talisman department decline?

"In the past, there were few Taoist priests, and there were not many inner elixirs left after death. The Talisman School lacked the most important materials, so it was not able to flourish and slowly forgot it." Yang Qingyin guessed that although she stood firmly on Mu Xingqiu's side, she was also a little interested in the talismans, "But now it's different. For more than 100,000 years, Taoist priests have left countless inner elixirs, and have never heard of them as other uses. It is a waste to put them there. It's better to take them out and make talismans."

Yang Qingyin's words were approved by many people. When everyone's voices gradually faded, Xiao Qingtao said hesitantly: "I just think that the inner alchemy was left to Taoism after the death of the Taoist priests, and it was... a kind of commemoration. When I thought of crushing them into powder and mixing them in the talisman, I felt very uncomfortable, just like the Taoist priests would not want to hand over their souls to Luanjing Mountain as materials, and would rather lose their souls in 7749 days."

The dispute is about to happen again, and the lower Taoists are in high spirits for slaying demons, and they are even willing to sacrifice their lives. Needless to mention the inner elixir of the deceased, "If the demon clan can be eliminated and regained the ancestral land of Pangshan, even if I let me spit out the inner elixir to make talismans now, I will!" A Taoist priest was a little excited. He was sincere, and Xiao Qingtao had nothing to say.

"I heard that fellow Taoist Mu opposed the use of talismans, right?" Another Taoist priest asked. Everyone's eyes were looking at Mu Xingqiu. Rumors spread very quickly and had already been deeply rooted in people's hearts. Supporting and opposing Taoist talismans became labels for Yang Qingyuan and Mu Xingqiu respectively.

"When visiting various Taoist dynasties, you have to come up with a clear point of view." Chen Hao reminded, "The conflict between the Fire God Seal and the inner alchemy is a reason. Unfortunately, Xin Youtao refused to come forward, otherwise he could show up to speak out. The source of the inner alchemy can also be said. The deceased inner alchemy is in the hands of the master or the head. Shen Jiyi provided a few, but he was always secretive about how to get it. If his method can only be used once, what's the use of no matter how good the talisman is? We can't really vomit the inner alchemy, right?"

Chen Hao knew very well that Mu Xingqiu was not opposed to the talisman itself, but that he was unwilling to let the control of the Demon-Slaying Association fall into the hands of Longbin Association, Shen Jiyi and Ding Wei, but this was just a speculation, without any clear evidence, and it cannot be publicly promoted.

"Chen Hao is right. I don't object to the use of Taoist talismans. I just want to know whether the talismans are enough for hundreds of low Taoists for several years. The war with the demon clan may be protracted. I don't want everyone to get used to the protection of talismans just now, but suddenly the supply of talismans stopped, which may disrupt the entire plan."

Mu Xingqiu at least convinced Taoist priest Pang Shan. Everyone thought his words were very reasonable, so they immediately started to take action and visited acquaintances from various Taoist dynasties to remind them to pay attention to the limitations of talismans. Even the disciples of the Five Elements Department who had just arrived in the imperial capital were out with great fighting spirit. Everyone felt that time was tight and they had to change the direction of the wind as much as possible before merging the instrument to discuss the Tao.

Mu Xingqiu, Chen Hao, Yang Qingyin and Xiao Qingtao also began a formal visit. Starting from the Luanjing Mountain, they visited each place one by one, met with the main members of the Demon Slaying Association, and talked about their views over and over again and answered questions.

Each Taoist priest has different attitudes, with clear support and perfunctory attitudes. Taoist priests of Yashan even showed obvious hostility. Taoist priests Pang Shan’s suspicion of Shen Jiyi made them very unhappy. Despite Yang Qingyin’s opposition, Mu Xingqiu finally went to Qishan. In these two Taoist stalks, Mu Xingqiu only expressed one view: competition is temporary, and the demon-slaying association must unite. No matter who becomes the leader, the other party should support it unconditionally.

For several days, Mu Xingqiu was busy, without time to rest or practice. In fact, the Taoist priests in the Taoist area did not sleep much. The night was no different from the daytime for them. There were clusters of figures talking in whispers everywhere in the rooms, courtyards, and on the streets.

Mu Xingqiu did not forget Xin Youtao, but after receiving Shen Jixian's warning, he no longer acted rashly. His plan was to seize the position of leader of the Demon-Slaying Association, and then intervene in the affairs of the Longbin Association through Ding Wei to find out what happened to Xin Youtao.

In almost the blink of an eye, the two Taoist priests were still persuading each other, and many people were still swaying. The combination of instruments and discussion began. The battle between Pang Shan Mu Xingqiu and Qi Shan Yang Qingyuan was set as the finale. As a result, after the first battle, an unknown Taoist priest in Yashan attracted everyone's attention, causing a sudden change in the battle between the leaders.
