Volume 4: Rise of the Dragon: Chapter 419: The Witch's Counterattack and the Crisis Behind It (II)

(Solemnly explain: The fifth doppelganger that was omitted before is now filled in by the Holy Spirit Tree clone: The Holy Spirit Tree clone is the core of the tree left by the Holy Spirit Tree that Yunlong refined, and the distraction is placed on it and transformed into a shape, because the Holy Spirit Tree is the long of the acquired spirit root, which can suppress and control the world, so it is transformed into the image of the old man called "Mu Linggong" He is good at wood-based Taoism and healing spells, and once healed the cursed dragon on the savage 6 Dragon Island and fought with the magician, although the great god power did not have too strong attack ability, but he was a master of support. When they go out without transformation, they usually cultivate in the form of the Holy Spirit Tree in the "Great Yan Na Void Pure Heaven" and play a role in suppressing the center of the Cave Heaven, or they are included in the Buddha-figure's Purple Mansion to assist in their cultivation.

Because of my negligence, I apologize deeply for the inconvenience caused to everyone, and I am so sorry. ）......

Xiang Tiannan said such words sincerely, which eased the suspicious eyes of other people a lot, and also relaxed the originally tense atmosphere again, and also surprised Li Xuanji, who seemed to be calm but was actually carefully observing Xiang Tiannan's every move.

You must know that the Shushan Sect is a top sect that has risen in the past thousand years, and has climbed step by step from an ordinary sect to the glorious status of today's top sect.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is precisely the blood and bones of countless disciples of the Shushan Sect and their enemies over the past thousand years that have brought the current status of the Shushan Sect to the table! In the process of the rise of the Shushan Sect, in addition to the role played by the so-called "Taiqing One Line" orthodoxy and the "Innate Qi Taiqing Divine Rune" and the "Liangyi Micro Dust Array" given by the Dao Ancestors, the other parts are all the disciples of Shushan from generation to generation, and they have fought hard after paying the price of blood and fire.

The Shushan faction is originally a sword cultivation sect, and the sword is a sharp and killing thing, and the sword cultivation can only become stronger and stronger in battle, if there is no such sharp qi, the strength of the sword cultivation will drop three layers invisibly. This is also the reason why the Shushan faction always gives outsiders the impression of being strong, domineering, and willing to bend. Without this sharp spirit, you will lose your enterprising spirit and courage and fighting spirit, and you will not be a qualified sword cultivator. This kind of sharpness, or toughness and inflexibility, has become the unique character of Shushan disciples, deeply imprinted in the hearts of every Shushan disciple, and reflected in their actions. Therefore, in many cases, even if the Shushan disciples know that they have done something wrong, they will not apologize directly, but have a tough attitude and stubbornness, at most, they just make up for it afterwards.

As the head of the Shushan faction, Xiang Tiannan is also known as the most outstanding head of the Shushan faction for thousands of years, and every move represents the image of the Shushan faction, and naturally there is no lack of this tough character. Although in recent years, as the Shushan faction has become more and more powerful and has become one of the four top sects of the righteous path, after the Kunlun battle began to lead the Xiuzhen realm, the Shushan faction also began to take into account the influence, and gradually changed its style, no longer as tough and aggressive as before;

It is precisely because of this that when You Longzi assisted the Great Song Dynasty to unify the world, Xiang Tiannan did not support the mortal regime of Shu to resist, but conformed to the general trend and returned to the Great Song Dynasty, and did not have a direct conflict with You Longzisheng. Of course, there are considerations of the Righteous Dao Sect to "act in accordance with the sky" and the factor of being afraid of the strength of You Longzi, but the more important thing is to set an example for the world and all factions in the cultivation realm, and enhance the prestige and image of the Shushan faction.

However, the so-called easy to change, difficult to change, the Shushan faction's domineering and tough character has lasted for thousands of years, and it is by no means a thing that can be changed overnight, although the Shushan faction will choose to deal with many major matters gently, but in some uncritical and unprincipled situations, they still always maintain their tough style, just like their swordsmanship, tough and domineering, which cannot be refuted. But now, Xiang Tiannan actually took the initiative to put down his posture under Li Xuanji's constant pressure, and even admitted his mistake without hesitation, which greatly surprised others, and also played a very good effect. At least after admitting their mistakes to Tiannan, several other leaders also opened their mouths to express their understanding, and the Shushan faction, which had faintly become the target of public criticism because of Li Xuanji's words, suddenly reached a relaxation relationship with other sects again.

Although Li Xuanji was shocked and puzzled by the change to Tiannan, until now, he could only watch his plan misperform and there was nothing he could do. After all, the Shushan faction is still a top-level sect, and Xiang Tiannan has not done anything really wrong, and other sects will not be stupid to offend the powerful force of the Shushan faction because of just one or two sentences. If he couldn't provoke him, he had to hold back the frustration in his heart, laughed dryly, and said: "It's really impressive to know that you can change your mistakes from Taoist friends, which is rare and rare." Then he shut up, just a twinkle in his eyes, thinking about something.

Xiang Tiannan naturally has his own considerations in doing this. To be the head of a top sect like the Shushan faction, in addition to having the strength to convince the public, you must also have enough wisdom. How could Xiang Tiannan not see that in the situation just now, his momentary aphasia, coupled with Li Xuanji's provocation, had faintly aroused the anger of the public, although it had not yet become clear, but it was also very dangerous, and if he was not careful, he would let the Shushan faction take on a big hat of "selfishness and disregard for the overall situation". Once he really bears this reputation, it will undoubtedly deal a great blow to the image and prestige of the Shushan faction, which will be greatly detrimental to the attempts of the Shushan faction leader to cultivate the true realm.

Li Xuanji's strategy is not clever to say, that is, to use the words that Xiang Tiannan just said by mistake to provoke the dissatisfaction of other sects, with the tough character of the Shushan faction all along, he will not admit his mistakes, so he can provoke them, and then intensify the contradictions between the various factions and the Shushan faction. Anyway, no matter how strong the Shushan faction is, it is impossible for the Shushan faction to turn its face on the spot at the risk of truly offending all the sects. In this way, Heavenly Master Dao can take this opportunity to greatly deal a blow to the prestige of the Shushan faction and make this domineering neighbor suffer a loss. As for the secret intrigue and stumbling between the two factions in the future, is there less on weekdays?......

In that case, Xiang Tiannan had only two choices: first, he was provoked by Li Xuanji's provocation and walked away, so as to avoid the embarrassment in person. However, it will lead to the dissatisfaction of other sects and the Shushan faction after the fact, and intensify the contradictions.

2. Lower your posture, admit the mistake of gaffe, apologize to others, and save your own image. The advantage of this is that it can thwart Li Xuanji's conspiracy, get rid of the hat of "selfishness and disregard for the overall situation", and win the understanding of all factions. But the disadvantage is that it will frustrate the sharpness of the Shushan faction all along, so that the Shushan faction that "made mistakes" will lose some benefits in the next conversation. Moreover, the frustration of sharp qi may have a certain impact on Xiang Tiannan's personal cultivation realm.

Cultivation to their kind of realm, every word and deed is secretly in line with the inner way, if the words and deeds are inconsistent, against the original heart, then it will lead to their own "action" and "Tao" conflict, occasionally once or twice, it is nothing, but if there are too many times, it will make the realm unstable, and even arouse the demons in the heart, and it is not impossible to go crazy.

In short, no matter which way Xiang Tiannan chooses, he will suffer losses, the difference is only the size of the loss and the bearer. Should they choose to maintain their own vigor and cultivation and let the entire sect bear this loss, or should they sacrifice their own interests to bear this loss for the sect? These two choices are enough for them to bear the tremendous pressure in ordinary people, and they are also the choices that test the Dao heart.

As a movers, Li Xuanji naturally hoped that Xiang Tiannan would choose the first choice to protect the interests of his own sect. Because this is the best in the interests of the Heavenly Master. There are many masters of the Shushan faction, even if there is no one less Xiang Tiannan, there will not be much loss, and he is still one of the two leaders of the righteous path who are admired by various sects and factions;

Just one negligence will be caught and the loss will be lost, and the intrigue and conspiracy between the top leaders of the gate faction can be seen from this.

However, Xiang Tiannan was not an idle person after all, and almost didn't think much about it, so he chose to admit his mistakes and apologize to everyone. Xiang Tiannan's wisdom and open-mindedness are indeed extraordinary, and among the two choices, he did not hesitate to choose to sacrifice himself to maintain the sect, which is worthy of his identity as the head of the sect. With such a decision, even Li Xuanji felt that he had not done his best in his calculations and regretted that he had secretly admired.

Xiang Tiannan made such a decision, naturally because of his own considerations. In addition to the sense of responsibility of safeguarding the interests of the sect and being responsible for his words and deeds as the head of the sect, Xiang Tiannan also wanted to take this opportunity to hone his Dao heart. After all, the combination of rigidity and softness is the long-term way. If you are blindly tough and domineering, you will eventually encounter obstacles that will affect your cultivation. Cultivating to the point where he had already understood the principle of transformation between rigidity and softness.

It's one thing to just understand how to do it. Sword cultivation is a way that would rather bend than bend, be strong and domineering, and in battle, only the upright way of moving forward bravely because of difficulties can swing the maximum power of sword cultivation. Now it is a troubled time, force is the foundation of life, and naturally it cannot be changed lightly, otherwise it will endanger life. Besides, the cultivation methods of the Shushan School are the essence of the cultivation methods that have been summarized and tempered by countless predecessors, and how can they be so easy to change? Therefore, unless there is a peerless opportunity, it is impossible to comprehend the path of rigidity and softness in terms of exercises.

However, his cultivation has also reached a critical point, and if he can fully comprehend the transformation between rigidity and softness, he will be able to go further, and the Dao will greatly increase the number of immortals.

Since you can't change it in the exercises, you can only make a breakthrough from your state of mind. Cultivation is the cultivation of the mind, and the changes in the Dao heart will also be clearly reflected in the external practice, if he can take the lead in making a breakthrough in the Dao heart, it is also very likely that he will immediately achieve a breakthrough in comprehending the path of rigidity and softness.

Since you want to make a change in the heart of the Dao, you must start by changing your style and attitude, in the past, he was as hard as a sword, and would rather not bend, then this time you must change your style, become tactful and soft, and learn to compromise! It is better to choose the day than to hit the sun, and this mistake may be the opportunity that fell from the heavens, so that he can take the opportunity to start changing! This is Xiang Tiannan's thoughts. Since a cultivator has already decided that this is his own opportunity, he has to seize it, so he also took the opportunity to admit his mistake, which surprised everyone.

Sure enough, after saying something from his heart, Xiang Tiannan only felt that a force suddenly emerged from the depths of the Dao heart, the nature of this power was very soft, watery, and tough as silk, the original hard and sharp Dao heart actually had a more flexible meaning after fusing this power, and even the mighty sword cultivation mana in the body also had a little toughness. Of course, since this strange power had just appeared, the amount was far from being comparable to the sword dao dao heart that he had cultivated for hundreds of years, so the changes brought about were minimal. But he was very happy with this welcome change.

Xiang Tiannan understood that this situation indicated that his thoughts were correct, and the change in the path of rigidity and softness of the Dao heart could indeed have an effect on the body! This joy of harvest even offset the low mood he had because he admitted his mistakes, and even the tininess of his face became much more real.

Others naturally didn't know that Xiang Tiannan's body and mind had changed so much in a short period of time, and after seeing Xiang Tiannan's "sincere" smile, while eliminating his dissatisfaction with the Shushan faction, he also sighed: The way of the world has really changed, and even the hard bones of the Shushan faction have begun to learn so smoothly, look at that kind of smile that is like from the heart, it is really hypocritical and hypocritical than real gold.

Since the conflict between Li Xuanji and Xiang Tiannan has disappeared into invisibility, then this matter naturally has to be discussed, and the head of the Kunlun faction, Mingyu Zhenren, who has a handsome face, coughed lightly and said, "Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, let's start discussing some ways to deal with the next changes." The Dark Witch Sect has been overseas for thousands of years, and no one knows how much strength there is in the sect, and why they are right about the Demon Dao as soon as they come back, and the hidden truth in it is also very reverie. And now, my righteous path factions have attacked in a big way, and in one fell swoop, they have destroyed the vast majority of demon nests in Shenzhou, except for a very few of them, most of the demons have been granted the demon atmosphere, and it is no longer a matter of concern in the short term. The next step is to re-support mortals, restore order and production, this is also a big project, a thousand problems, and the stakes are heavy, and the merits are not small, and you need to contribute. ”

In fact, as the object of being challenged by the Shushan faction, Ming Yu Zhenren, who represents the Kunlun faction, very much hopes that the Shushan faction can commit public anger and carry a big heel, which is also very beneficial to the Kunlun faction. But helplessly, Xiang Tiannan, this guy didn't know what the reason was, but he actually changed his sex today, and he admitted his mistake so simply, which made him feel unbelievable. But the truth is right in front of you, and if you don't want to believe it, you can't help it. Kunlun, as the nominal leader of the Xiuzhen realm, Ming Yu Zhenren is also the presiding officer of the public recommendation of various factions, so it is natural for him to be impartial, strict and fair, so it is inconvenient for him to suppress Shu Shan, so he can only throw out a few important questions first, and take care of the right thing first.

It is indeed incomprehensible why the Dark Witch Cult would return to Big 6 at this delicate juncture and start a war with the Demon Dao. Because in the eyes of these famous and decent people, the Dark Witch Sect, which acts cruelly and viciously and has a barbaric style, is equivalent to today's Demon Dao, and is undoubtedly a kind of "Evil Demon Outer Dao", which is recognized as an evil force, otherwise it would not have been expelled by the joint efforts of all major sects. And today's Demon Dao is naturally also attributed to the evil forces, and it stands to reason that the Dark Witch Sect and the Demon Dao, which belong to the same "evil forces", should cooperate with each other and take the various factions of the righteous path as the goal, so it is reasonable.

But the facts are obviously not in line with common sense, the original "common enemy" of the Dark Witch Cult and the Demon Dao actually fought first, although the various sects and factions breathed a sigh of relief, but also wore deep doubts, I believe that if you don't know the reason, it's like a time bomb around you that doesn't know how to set the time, I'm afraid no one will be at peace in their hearts.

As for the reconstruction of the human world, although it is trivial, as Mingyu Zhenren said, this is an opportunity to make great merit. No one will have too much merit, and it will indeed take a lot of thought to how this piece of fat should be distributed so that everyone is satisfied. The heads of the parties did not let each other on this issue, and there was a lot of argument about it.

But no one noticed what kind of aftermath the demon forces that they thought were already sunset and had no threat in the short term!
