"Six years ago? That should be it." Yan Minyi muttered and her eyes lit up: "Where is he now?"

"I work in the Herbology Department and should be at Lotus Peak now. I will send someone to lead the fairy there." Wei Dexuan said.

"No need, I can go by myself." As soon as Yan Minyi finished speaking, the person turned into a ray of light and left.

"Master, who is this girl, and who is Tangning?" Geng Tong, the director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, looked puzzled.

The invisible pressure between heaven and earth disappeared. Tangning regained some strength and got up from the ground. He saw a ray of light coming from the distance and stopped beside him, revealing the figure of a woman.

The woman looked about eighteen or nineteen years old. She was wearing a green dress. She was petite, had a pretty face, and had two big, lively eyes.

As soon as the woman appeared, she looked him up and down. She circled him several times with her palms on her cheeks, looking over and over while shaking her head, as if she was watching an animal.

Tang Ning felt a little scared when she saw her. Just as she was about to ask a question, the woman asked, "Are you Tang Ning?"

It sounded like she had known him for a long time. Tangning was a little surprised that he had never seen this woman before. She nodded: "Yes, I don't know..."

Before he could finish speaking, the woman frowned and said, "I don't like you."

After Fang finished speaking, the woman turned into a ray of light and left. Tang Ning looked at her leaving figure, filled with doubts and wondering why there were so many strange things happening today.

In the main hall of the Qianyi Sect, Song Mingyi, the leader of the Shuiyun Sect, Wang Xuquan, the leader of the Qingyang Sect, and Wei Dexuan, the leader of the Qianyi Sect, gathered together and took their seats separately.

"Brother Wei, when Senior Bai Jintang came to Xingang, why didn't you inform us earlier so that we could go and greet him together? Wouldn't it be rude to have to be summoned by him now?" Wang Xuquan, the leader of the Qingyang Sect, said with slight reproach.

road

"Yes! Brother Wei, the three sects of you and I belong to the D-level outer courtyard of Taixuan Sect. We should take care of each other and be united. If we don't greet the envoy of the sect when he comes here, we might be guilty of not welcoming him. Besides, he still comes like this."

Big shot." Song Mingyi, the leader of Shuiyun Sect, agreed.

"You two have misunderstood me. This is Senior Bai's own intention. Senior Bai came here just to explore the secret realm. He doesn't want to make a big splash and let everyone know."

Wang Xuquan said: "Senior Bai has a great reputation. I heard that many senior officials in Shangzong appreciate him very much. In recent years, he has advocated abandoning the disputes between sects and families in Xuanmen, forming a united front, and formulating an agreement with the Demon Sect.

The agreement has been supported by many people, and many people have stood up and cheered for it."

Song Mingyi nodded: "Yes, thirty years ago when I went to Qingzhou City, it happened to be the birthday of Senior Yuan Xiaoqing, the head of the Mirror Moon Sect. There was a big banquet for everyone. I was lucky enough to get a seat. During the banquet, Senior Yuan and several other seniors were having fun.

When it comes to the world's heroes, when it comes to the new generation of proud men, Senior Yuan has great praise for them and has many words of praise.

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Senior Yuan really said that? Mr. Wei has lived in Shanmen for decades, but he has never heard of it."

"How can this be false? Could it be that I dare to spread rumors about Senior Yuan? Senior Yuan also said." Song Mingyi glanced around subconsciously and whispered: "Senior Yuan also said not to look at Taixuanmen's ranking among the four major Xuanmen.

One of them is the leader in Xuanmen in the world, but he has been resting on his laurels for so many years. Most of the people in high positions are old fools who have nothing to do with their lives. If they don't change, Taixuanzong will be destroyed in their hands sooner or later."

After Song Mingyi finished speaking, the three of them were silent for a while, and Wei Dexuan finally spoke: "Senior Yuan is the only one who dares to say this. He has an upright temperament, seniority, and is a direct disciple of Taixuan Sect. His words still have weight in the Shangzong.

, even if there were many complaints, the Emperor could do nothing to him."

"Mr. Yuan practiced in the Shangzong for more than 3,000 years before delegating it to the Jingyue Sect. He had deep feelings for the Shangzong! Seeing the decline of the Shangzong, he was heartbroken and hated that iron cannot become steel." Wang Xuquan said.

Just as Song Mingyi was about to speak, a man walked out of the hall. He was dressed in white and had a spring-like smile on his face. It was Bai Jintang. The three of them quickly stood up and saluted.

Bai Jintang waved his hand, sat on the main seat above, motioned for a few people to sit down, and then said: "I invite the three heads here today. I have something to tell you."

"Senior Bai, what about the secret realm? Senior Bai just showed off his power, is there something unexpected in the secret realm?" Wei Dexuan asked immediately.

"That's right." Bai Jintang nodded: "I just went to investigate the secret realm. The situation is not optimistic. The outer seal has been loosened. It is found that there are many monsters in the secret realm, and it seems that they have arrived at the right time.

It’s not short yet.”

Upon hearing this, the heads of the three sects were shocked and became restless.

"There is no need to worry too much. There are still some low-level monsters in the secret realm. High-level monsters are repelled by the power of heaven and earth and cannot easily come to this world. I just strengthened the seal, and a powerful idea tried to attack through the seal.

I, therefore, caused some commotion."

"Senior Bai, in your opinion, how long can the entire seal be sustained?"

"It is not that simple for those monsters to completely break the seal, but the outer seal has been loosened. In the next tens or hundreds of years, monsters will continue to come from other worlds through the cracks and into various secret realms. Now there are various seals in Tianyuan

The situation is almost the same. According to the estimates of the ancestors, if nothing unexpected happens, there is no big problem for the seal to last for more than ten thousand years. The ancestors are also thinking of ways to strengthen the seal, but before that, they must ensure that monsters will not come from it.

Escape from the secret realm.

"The Qianyi Sect was originally established to guard and suppress this secret realm. When this secret realm was discovered, the founder Qin Qianyi was transferred here from the Shangzong to guard the secret realm, thus creating the Qianyi Sect. If the monster breaks the seal

, Qian Yizong knows his duty and will fight to the last person." Wei Dexuan said.

"The Qingyang Sect belongs to the D-level outer courtyard of Taixuan Sect, and together with the Qianyi Sect, we will do our best to resist the monsters." Wang Xuquan quickly expressed his position.

"Shuiyun Sect will not retreat," Song Mingyi said.

Bai Jintang nodded: "If something can't be done and it's beyond our capabilities, conserving strength is the best option. There is no need for meaningless sacrifices. If all the seals are broken and monsters invade in large numbers, then we must shrink

battle lines and prepare for a protracted life-and-death battle.

"That's the worst case scenario. It's far from that point yet. Of course, we can't just defend and let the monsters destroy the seal. The ancestors have already given instructions to recapture the secret realm first. Now the secret realm is full of low-level

level monsters, you can organize some low-level disciples to go in, either as training or to prepare for future wars. Deaths and injuries are bound to be inevitable, but knowing yourself and the enemy can increase the winning rate of future wars. The secret realm will be invaded by high-level monsters one after another.

, you must be prepared."

"Yes, I will immediately order the disciples to go into the secret realm to eliminate demons." Wei Dexuan said.

"Don't worry, there were monsters attacking me when I entered just now. I got angry and got rid of all the monsters in the secret realm. And after I reinforced this sealing point, no more monsters will invade the secret realm in the short term."

"Senior Bai, I would like to ask you something boldly. I know that you have always advocated giving up the fight between sects and families, forming a united front, and even uniting with the Demon Sect. In your opinion, can this be done?" Song Mingyi suddenly asked.

Bai Jintang smiled: "I have traveled to many places over the years, seen a lot of things, and understood some things. The struggle for interests between Xuanmen and Xuanmen, and the dispute between Xuanmen and Demonic Clan for cultivation concepts.

, the racial conflicts between the human race and the demon race are actually unnecessary struggles, and these struggles only aggravate internal friction."

"I hope that the Xuanmen will give up the struggle for interests, unite the Demon Sect and the Yao clan to form an alliance, and reorganize the order, because there are more powerful enemies outside us, and that is the real enemy. If it is for the spirit stone, the world

, or cultivation resources, these are all negotiable, but they are not for these, they want to completely eliminate us and use the entire continent as their sustenance."

"My ideas have been supported by some people, and some people say that my wild words are unrealistic. I understand that the struggle between Xuanmen and Xuanmen, between Xuanmen and Demonic Gates, and between humans and monsters is now far away.

It is not as simple as a dispute over interests. The seeds of hatred have already taken root and sprouted between the two parties. Each great monk has more or less the blood of the other's relatives on his hands. These hatreds cannot be solved by saying a few words or a few words of truth.

Can be settled.

"There is a senior who I respect very much. He once told me that as long as the road is right, don't be afraid of its distance. From the time I thought about these things and decided to work hard and do something, I thought, I

You will be scorned by others, and may even be considered as having different intentions, and be ostracized by fellow Taoists."

"But the situation is much better than I imagined. Many people support me, not only in Taixuan Sect, but also in several other major Xuanmen, among the scattered cultivators who live in no fixed place, and even those from the Demon Sect and Monster Clan.

I think these are right. Although these forces are still very weak, the future is long."

"The loosening of the seal this time is a big crisis and an opportunity for monks all over the world. Many people originally sneered at me and dismissed me. They thought I was a monstrous talker, and their attitudes began to change subtly. Many of them were big ones.

Monks and many people who hold a neutral attitude have begun to accept this view, and some of them even have blood feuds with the Demon Sect or Monster Clan."

"For example, senior Yuan Xiaoqing from Qingzhou, his early wife died at the hands of the Demon Clan, senior Yu Heyi from Youzhou, both of his parents died in the struggle with the Demon Clan, these great monks with considerable influence

They all believe that the struggle should be stopped. Although they cannot fully accept peace talks with the Demon Sect and the Yao Clan to form a grand alliance, they all agree that all Xuanmen comrades must unite."
