Chapter 1126: The Auction Begins! !
"Don't just stare at the power of Yancheng, the Spirit Beast Sect of the Tiger Gate is fine, but the Thousand Swords Sect can't be underestimated!"
Zhao Kangwei saw that the atmosphere in the room had eased, and his tone also eased, reminding Zao Wou-Ki to speak.
The Thousand Swords Sect belongs to the third-level sect of the lower grade, which is not too far from the second-level lower grade of the Zhao family. The key is that the Thousand Swords Sect's cultivation is the way of the sword, and it is quite difficult to deal with it if it really has to fight.
Ancestor Zhao Kangwei attaches great importance to this sect.
"Xu'er disappeared when she went to Humen to investigate the news this time, could it be that she discovered some secret of the Thousand Swords Sect, the hand of the Thousand Swords Sect?"
Zao Wou-Ki frowned and guessed.
The disappearance of his most beloved son Zhao Xu made him anxious, and his wife cried with him every day.
As for Zhao Yufeng and Zhao Jia, there was no news either, and Zao Wou-Ki may not have seen them for a few months, so he didn't pay attention to them at all.
The old man Zhao Kangwei waved the long staff in his hand and said in a low voice: "The strength of the Thousand Swords Sect Master Qianzihu is good, but he doesn't dare to blatantly bully my Zhao family, it won't be him." ”
No matter what the situation was, the most important thing in the family now was to prepare for this discussion meeting, and Zao Wou-Ki held back his emotions and arranged the affairs before the family meeting ended.
Leaving the family chamber, a brightly dressed woman greeted him and asked eagerly, "How is it, is there any news of Xu'er?"
Zhao Wouji frowned and shook his head, he and his wife Pei only had one son, Zhao Xu, and he was usually doting.
"It's all your fault! I have to let Xu'er perform any task, now it's okay, there is no news, if you can't find it again, I'll die for you!"
Pei hid his face with tears in his face and left.
Zao Wouji's heart tightened, and he hurriedly caught up.
His wife didn't dare to offend at all, not for anything else, just because his wife Bei Shi was the sister of Bei Leshu, the lord of Yancheng.
Belle Shu has been appointed by Dongling Shangzong as the lord of Yancheng for decades, and his power and prestige in Yancheng are extremely high.
Zhao Wouji was able to sit firmly in the position of the head of the family, all thanks to the support of his wife's mother's family, and he usually obeyed Pei's words.
In the central square of Yancheng, a stone tablet more than 20 meters high stands in the middle, and a circle of forbidden formations around it isolates the onlookers.
This stele is similar to the one in the Humen trading market, except that it is taller, and the names of more than a dozen sects are engraved on it, and the surrounding monks are pointing and pointing at each other from dozens of zhang.
"Why isn't the first place in the Yan Sect, isn't it the number one sect in Yan City?"
"This Dao Conference can only be attended by the lower grade sects, and you still ask such questions!"
"I heard that the four major families of Yancheng, the four families of Yan Zhao, Han and Wei, the Yan family is undoubtedly the first in the auction, and the strength of the other three is almost the same, among which the Wei family's Wei Zong is prosperous and yang, and the female disciples in the general are all beautiful like flowers, the most famous of which is Wei Xianzi, I don't know if I can meet this time. ”
"Fairy Wei is not only beautiful, but also extremely high in cultivation, so don't waste your spirit like this. ”
Yancheng has a vast territory, and there are many monks who come and go from the south to the north.
Knowing that the Taoist Conference on duty was prosperous, they went to Yancheng to observe.
A deep-eyed, slender sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, holding a gauze-wrapped short sword in his hand, walked among the bustling monks.
"I didn't expect this Yancheng to be so prosperous, and the area of the city is at least dozens of times that of Humen!"
This person is Li Xuan, who changed into a young man who has been training alone after eating the alien pill, and it took several days to rush from Humen to Yancheng.
As soon as he entered Yancheng, Li Xuan went straight to the square where the ranking stone monument stood up.
When Li Xuan first learned about this big competition, he thought it was just a competition between the major sects of the Tiger Gate, but it wasn't until later that he realized that he was thinking too much.
If it was so easy to get the Sect Monument, the Thousand Swords Sect would not have been suppressed in that small place in Humen to dominate the throne.
Li Xuan's cultivation was revealed at the seventh level of the warrior, and there was a faint aura of fierceness, which made the surrounding monks unconsciously avoid it.
The reason why he is dressed as a sword cultivator is simply because he doesn't want to be troubled, among the monks, the lone swordsman is generally the stronger among the monks of the same level, and most people don't want to provoke the arrogant sword cultivator.
Looking up at the ranking stone tablet, the first place in the list of Yancheng was the Wei Sect created by the Wei family, and he heard that the inner disciples and core of this sect were all female cultivators, except for some male disciples in the outer gate, there were no men, which surprised Li Xuan.
It was followed by the second place by the Black Evil Sect, and the third place by the Zhao Family Zhao Sect.
The fourth is Han Zong of the Han family.
The fifth is the Qinglu Sect.
The top five sects are all lower-grade third-level sects.
The Yancheng region under the Tanglin seat, including Humen, has a radius of nearly 10,000 miles, and there are dozens of sects distributed, and the strength and grades are uneven.
In the subordinate area of Yancheng, only Humen has a ranking stone tablet lowered, and there are only two sects above the ranking stone tablet in the entire Yancheng City, which can participate in the sect discussion conference held in Guling Cliff.
As for the Dao Conferences held in other regions, it has nothing to do with Li Xuan and the others for the time being, and Li Xuan doesn't need to pay attention to it, but Li Xuan knows that the stronger the regions, the more cruel the big competition will be, and the more generous the rewards, but he has no way to get in touch with it now.
"Among the sects in the Tiger Gate, I am afraid that only the Thousand Sword Sect and the Spirit Beast Sect can barely be the enemy of the Yancheng Sect forces, and the difficulty of this Dao Conference is really not small. ”
Standing outside the ranking stone tablet, Li Xuan continued to look down, and there were about ten of the other sects, ranging from level four to level six.
Among them, the Lotus Sect is impressively listed.
At the beginning, the Yin Flower Sect invited the young elders of the Lotus Sect to deduce, but they couldn't calculate Li Xuan's fate.
After the death of the Yin Flower Sect's Yin Lao, Li Xuan had never heard of it, and he still didn't know about the existence of the Lotus Sect.
Yancheng City Lord's Mansion, above the high mansion lord's pavilion, the city lord Belle Shu was looking at the ranking stone tablet in the center of the city with people, talking and laughing.
"I didn't expect that this conference was actually presided over by Brother Lan, I didn't expect you and me to be able to get together here!"
Beile Shu was the early stage of the Great War Division, and his real age was unknown, but his face looked extremely young, like a young man who had just been weakly crowned.
Only from time to time, the essence of the abyss and the sea revealed from his eyes, which showed that the young man in the brocade robe in front of him was actually a fourth-order monk, who was in the position of the city lord of Yancheng.
The people beside Beleshu were wearing fiery red robes and revealing their arms, and their hands and wrists did not know what kind of treasure they were wearing, exuding bursts of flame red light.
This person's name is Lan Chuji, who can be called a brother and a brother by Beleshu, and he is obviously a strong person who presides over this sect discussion conference.
"This time, Shangzong held a discussion meeting at the same time in more than a dozen Shangcheng in the territory of Tanglin Kingdom. I happened to be sent to Yancheng, which shows my fate with Brother Bei. ”
Lan Chuji laughed heartily, happy to see Baylor, the two had known each other since they were teenagers, and they knew each other very well.
"I was sent to Yancheng by the Shangzong not long after I broke through, where is Brother Lan at ease!"
It has been decades since Beleshu broke through to the Fourth Order, and now there is still a slight distance from the middle of the Fourth Order, that is, the middle of the Great War Division.
Hearing this, Lan Chuji looked indignant and said, "I was punished by the sect master to take this drudgery, where is there anything to be free about." ”
"Donglin Shangzong has held a Dao conference in more than a dozen main cities at the same time, and dozens of Array Foundation Sect Tablets will be given at this time, this has not been such a grand occasion for hundreds of years, what is the situation here?"
Belle lowered his voice and asked as he stared at Lan Chuji.
The successive sect masters of the Tanglin Shangzong were all succeeded by the disciples of the Tanglin lineage, and they were generally called the Tanglin clan.
"I'm just presiding over this Yancheng Dao Conference, how many secrets can I know, but Brother Bei, as the lord of a city, you must know more than me!"
Lan Chuji smiled, but instead of answering directly, he asked Belleshu a question.
Asked by Lan Chuji, Beleshu just shook his head and smiled, avoided the topic, and said, "In this way, this conference will only be more difficult than before?"
Lan Chuji also smiled and said nothing, and only said after a long time: "I'll know when the time comes." ”
Leaving the central square of the city, Li Xuan walked casually in the city, while seeing the customs and customs here, he found an inn to stay and rest by the way.
Yancheng is dozens of times larger than Humen City, mainly because it is one of the main cities of Tanglin and is densely populated.
Yancheng is divided into inner city and outer city, generally only monks can enter the inner city, and the outer city, which occupies more than seventy percent of the area, is mainly inhabited by mortals.
Regardless of Yancheng or other main cities of the Tanglin Kingdom, the order of mortal society is managed by the mortals themselves, and the city lord's mansion will only send monks to supervise.
For mortals, cultivators are immortals, so no matter what position the mortal officials have, they all believe that there are gods who are three feet above their heads, and they dare not bend the law for bribes.
Of course, there are always people who are not afraid of death or are lucky, and the law enforcement monks will punish them to ensure that mortal society will always prosper.
Secular mortals live and work in peace and contentment, and the population remains stable, which not only provides gifted disciples for the sect, but also affects some so-called national fortune or luck in the dark.
These things that cannot be seen or touched have always been revered by people.
"The scale of the Humen trading market is probably only comparable to an ordinary market here, so it's no wonder that the auction is only held in Yancheng. ”
Seeing the prosperity of Yancheng, Li Xuan couldn't help but look forward to the auction in a few days.
Regardless of the inner city or the outer city, as long as there is a flight ban within the Yancheng area, no monk is allowed to fly without the permission of the city lord's mansion.
The Castle Lord's Mansion represents the Upper Sect of a country.
In addition to governing the mortal people of the city, he also managed and maintained the order of the cultivation world to a certain extent.
Compared to having absolute life and death over mortals, for the sect and the monks, the upper sect does not have such a great binding force, but only maintains the stability of the cultivation world of the Tanglin Kingdom as much as possible.
Tanglin Shangzong is more like an alliance force for monks, and the people of Tanglin Shangzong play the role of alliance leader.
Only when the country is facing a great crisis will the Shangzong mobilize all the sects in the country to command the action in a unified manner.
As for the day-to-day affairs of the various sects, the Tanglin Upper Sect rarely intervenes.
