There was indeed nothing good about the planning behind it. Xin Youtao guessed it correctly, but he would rather be wrong.

Mu Xingqiu summoned all the demon-invading Taoist priests, and Xin Youtao personally invited Yang Qingyin to retrieve Xiao Qingtao, Xiao Hao and Bald.

In the tent with the spell enlarged spell, Meng Xu distributed the newly created spirit pill and made a good start. Then Gan Zhiwei announced that he felt a faint sign of life in the seven deceased people, and they were likely to wake up.

Everyone was very happy. Since entering the land of the demons, two rare good things have happened one after another. Then all their eyes turned to Mu Xingqiu, looking at him expectantly, hoping to get a complete guarantee of safety from him.

Yang Qingyin and Xiao Qingtao stood in the last row. Neither of them were very tall and were blocked by others. Xin Youtao stood beside Mu Xingqiu. He had almost vomited. He was finally able to look at the bad news calmly, but his face still looked pale, and he did not improve after taking the elixir.

"The news came from Zuo Liuying." Mu Xingqiu said, without emotion in his voice. He thought, there was no euphemism in such a thing, and it was better to have short pain than long pain. So without waiting for someone to ask, he continued: "The Taoist sect will withdraw from this world, and all of us have to hand over our inner alchemy."

The tent was quiet. Mu Xingqiu said two things, but no one understood, especially the latter sentence - handing over his inner alchemy.

The inner alchemy is another life of a Taoist priest. It is no different from committing suicide. If I had known this, why would I have to escape into the land of demons with suspicion? Wouldn’t it be better to go back to my own Taoist dynasty directly to accept the elixir and destroy the elixir?

Xin Youtao felt disgusted again, "Take the pill?" He and Xiao Qingtao did not commit any mistakes or crimes. If he handed over the inner pill, he would become as fragile as an ordinary mortal. Although he was never a powerful Taoist priest, he could no longer accept the life of a mortal.

"I don't understand." Meng Xu's joy of refining medicine was wiped out, "How could the Taoist dynasty withdraw from this world? Even if they can do it, why do we have to hand over the inner alchemy?"

"This is how it is." Mu Xingqiu's voice still had no feelings, as if he was just a person who simply passed the message. He was not affected by any influence. "Just a while ago, the Taoist priests of Zhushen contacted Master Wangshan."

With a buzzing sound, the Taoist priests could no longer keep quiet. The mountain was closed and the disappearance of the ancestor was one of the most bizarre and most important events in the Taoist dynasty in recent years. It was even more impactful than the collapse of the ancestor peak. Unexpectedly, it was found.

Everyone quickly calmed down and waited for Mu Xingqiu to continue talking.

"This happened three months ago. The ancestor, Wangshan disciples and the high Taoist priests of the mountains who were detained at that time did not show up, so the Taoist priests of the Gods did not announce the news. The ancestor revealed an important thing. He said that the demon-suppressing bell was about to fail, and at most it could last less than 30 years. This is not the worst news. The ancestor said that the demon species had found a group of new allies, not a demon race, but a race called Bingkui."

Taoists have heard of Bingkui's rumors, and know that this is a new race that emerged in the north a few years ago. It has been advancing to the south silently. So far, it is still far away from the human world. The demon races are slaughtered along the way, so they are not particularly valued by the Taoist dynasty.

"What exactly is Bingkui? Are even the Shintoshi afraid of them?" Gan Zhiquan asked.

Mu Xingqiu shook his head, "I don't know much. According to the ancestor, Bingkui is very powerful. Even if the Taoist dynasty can defeat them, he will suffer heavy losses. This is exactly the purpose of the demon seeds. The ancestor saw through this. So he found a reliable hiding place, intending to avoid Bingkui's sharpness there."

"Fang Xunmo is the 37th generation ancestor of the Taoist dynasty!" Meng Xu shook his head and showed great disbelief of Mu Xingqiu's words. "He just hid in this way, and he didn't care about the other eight Taoist dynasties?"

"The ancestor is not so heartless." Mu Xingqiu's lips curled slightly, and he couldn't help but show a hint of sarcasm. "For the years, he has been improving his hiding place until he was invincible, and he invited the monks to the Shintos."

"Can the Taoist priest defeat the demon seeds by hiding?" Gan Zhiwei clenched his fist and asked angrily, "Can the disciples who hide in the hiding place provide Taoist roots? Taoist priests are not demon seeds. When everyone dies, the Taoist priests will be gone. Without humans, the Taoist priests are water without source."

"The ancestor may have a way to solve this problem. It is said that he has a bigger plan. Zuo Liuying didn't know it, so I had no way to know it. In short, after receiving the invitation from the ancestor, the Taoist priests of the Pushen were shocked and did not give an answer immediately. It was at this time that Zuo Liuying withdrew from the Taoist priests because he understood that the Taoist priests of the Pushen would definitely follow the Taoist priests in the end, and he was unwilling to do so. It would be better to make an early statement, and the price was that all his memories of this matter were removed."

Zuo Liuying later regained her memory, and Mu Xingqiu skipped this paragraph because it had nothing to do with everyone else.

Zuo Liuying knew about the Taoist priests of the Shen, so he guessed that they not only agreed to follow the ancestors, but also brought the entire Taoist throne into a hiding place.

"Slow down." Gan Zhiquan took a step forward, "Daotong wants to hide the whole thing. Although I can't understand, the ancestor always has his own reason. What I don't understand is why Daotong insists on chasing us people and still has to be accused of becoming a demon?"

Mu Xingqiu had the same doubt when he heard this, but he quickly figured it out, and Xin Youtao's retelling proved that his guess was not too outrageous.

"There are two reasons. First, if the Taoist priest wants to take all the disciples away, they have to give them an acceptable reason to let them see the power of the demon clan with their own eyes. Therefore, although the Taoist priest chased us, it has not used all its strength. It only needs a god-slaying Taoist priest to solve it, and it has to make a big move. Xuanwu Youliao was sent by the Taoist priest. It should have killed all of us and swallowed enough souls, it will become a giant demon, possessing power similar to that of the demon clan, and then launch an attack on the demon-slaying association, and then be killed by the higher Taoist priests."

This plan failed, and Youliao has now become a pet in Xiao Hao's hands.

"I used the method of extermination in the Ice City. This incident was recorded by Liuhuo Jinling and transferred to the Grandmaster of Yashan, Shenzangqi. The Taoist Priests of the Shen Dynasty thus formulated a new plan."

The new plan is to force Mu Xingqiu to "turn into a demon". This plan was basically successful. Mu Xingqiu not only used the Demon Lord's Dharma, but also resurrected a demon golem. The power revealed shocked all the lower Taoists.

Of course, this is still several steps away from all Taoist priests willingly withdraw from this world, but this is a good foundation. Taoist priests can begin to instill the power and insidiousness of the demons into their disciples, and then turn retreat into a tactic.

Retreat is for the purpose of returning - this is not what Zuo Liuying said, but Mu Xingqiu guessed.

The only surprise of the entire plan was that Zuo Liuying recovered her memory.

"Zuo Liuying claimed to announce the retreat plan of the Taoist priest on the spot. In this case, it would be very difficult for the Taoist priests to persuade the lower Taoist priests to persuade the lower Taoist priests to disappear, and it is very important for the entire Taoist priest to disappear. Therefore, the Taoist priests ordered the retreat, so that the lower Taoist priests could stay away from Zuo Liuying's spell casting range, and then they continued to negotiate."

"The result of the negotiation is to let us hand over the inner elixir?" Gan Zhiwei looked at his companions, knowing that everyone was the same as his thoughts and would rather die than give up the inner elixir. After the Gan brothers experienced the method of re-destruction, their bodies changed, but the inner elixir did not change and continued to rotate in their lower dantian.

"This is the second reason why the Taoist throne pursued us, and the most important reason." Mu Xingqiu took out half of the copper ring, and everyone recognized that it was a half ring of master. Every Taoist disciple had it, half in his own hands, and the other half in the hands of the head or the master. It was useless. It was just that when the disciple died, the head and master could know it in time.

"Zuo Liuying said that all the inner alchemy of living Taoist priests are related to the Taoist priests, and the master-learning half-ring is a manifestation of this connection. Those with powerful magic power, such as demons, can find the hiding place of Taoist priests without half-ring just through the inner alchemy. Therefore, Taoist priests must be hidden as a whole, and those exposed must be killed. Once a person dies, the connection between the inner alchemy will be interrupted."

The tent was quiet again. The relationship between the inner alchemy and the Taoist dynasty was so close. This was something that no one had ever heard of. There was never a single record in the vast books of the Taoist dynasty. Of course, the highest level among them was the Taoist priest who had no way to contact the Taoist dynasty.

"Then what?" A voice sounded behind the crowd. The Taoists moved aside and all looked back at Yang Qingyin. She didn't care. She just stared at Mu Xingqiu, "Let's hand over the inner elixir, waiting naked to fight the demons and Bingkui to join forces to fight? And Zuo Liuying, is he going to hand over the inner elixir? Why didn't he speak by himself?"

"Zuo Liuying said that it is not the time for him to appear. He also made a plan to start practicing inner alchemy again by all Taoist priests who refused to hide, including him. The Taoist throne is willing to provide all necessary things and magical instruments."

Everyone looked at each other and practiced the inner alchemy again? That was not an easy task. It would take decades to reach the current state. According to the ancestor Fang Xunmo, the demons had long since arrived in the world.

"The newly condensed inner alchemy has no connection with the Taoist sect?" Yang Qingyin asked.

"Zuo Liuying said he had a way to cut off this connection, but he needed everyone's consent."

"This is not a conspiracy of Taoist design again, is it?" Gan Zhiwei could no longer believe in the Taoist Priest.

"Conspiracy?" Xin Youtao's voice trembled a little, because he was full of grief and anger. He was not only considering himself, but also his sister, Xijieguo and the Holy Talisman Dynasty. "The greatest conspiracy of the Taoist dynasty is not here at all. Don't you understand? The Taoist dynasty wants us to hand over the inner alchemy, but also gives us the objects and magical tools for practice. From now on, we will be the Taoist dynasty! We will become the target of the demon clan and Bingkui. If possible, we will lead all humans and demon clans to consume the power of the demon clan."

Xin Youtao paused and glanced at Xiao Qingtao beside Yang Qingyin, "Why can Zuo Liuying persuade the Shintoshi to resign? Because the plan he proposed is more beneficial to the Taoist priest. Either hand over the inner alchemy or be killed, we have no other way to go. There is only one problem now. Are we willing to act as a shield for the Taoist priest? Is it necessary and capable of fighting against the demon clan?"
