The Taoist ancestor is Cthulhu

The Dao Ancestor is the Nine True Sect of Cthulhu Chapter 248

Zhou Chengxue said that Penglai took a large sum of money from King Poyang to protect his family, but it was obvious that the Jiuzhen Sect was really dissatisfied with the Xiao family. There were only three golden elixir-level disciples escorting this boat of female family members, young children, orphans and widowed mothers. , although probably no one in the East China Sea dared to hijack this ship, it was obvious that they were not even interested in sending a few more Nascent Souls to escort them all the way, even if they meant to save the face of their allies for so many years.

In fact, it's no wonder that the Lord Xiao himself is a man who works in two different things. He pays taxes to Sanyuan and worships Penglai at the same time. He is a speculator who has both sides. Anyway, he has the ability and money, and has taken care of the surrounding forces, which has kept his throne as the leader of the country stable for many years.

But this time it was indeed too embarrassing. He couldn't even stop a rebel general from rebelling, and it also caused chaos in the country. The paper tiger was exposed, and the Xiao family was disgraced. But the problem is that the Hou Gu Rebellion also caused huge losses to Penglai's industry. It disappointed the immortals so much that they almost broke up with each other.

To be honest, Penglai has been able to endure it so far. Not only does he punish the Xiao family, but also gives the Xiao family kings a chance to clean up the mess. He hopes that they can restore the stability of Zhenzhou as soon as possible. This is probably considered a sign of the immortals. In view of the long-term friendship between allies, I would like to give Lian a last chance.

However, it is conceivable that the immortals of Jiuzhen Sect will probably no longer trust the ability of the Xiao family as they did in the past. If you think more darkly, maybe these female relatives are here to take refuge, and in a sense they have become sent by the Xiao family. Where are the hostages?

As I said before, the world is already in turmoil.

"Princess Anji, what are you thinking about? I heard that the prince-in-law has died in the rebellion, and Taicheng is about to be destroyed. Without the protection of the old king, do you still want to seek refuge with your good brothers? Will you be sent there in the future? Sanyuan, do you want to please those old husbands?"

As soon as Li Fan and Zhenren Zhou landed on the bow of the boat, they heard a Jindan monk from Penglai, who was looking sad, saying to Xiao Yunan, who was pale and frightened.

"Although you still have some savings and some beauty, it would be so hard for a woman to be alone without a man to protect you.

Although I, Cheng Qianlong, am not talented and have not passed the college examination, I can still be considered a person from Penglai. My grandfather, Cheng Chengzhi, is an inner disciple of Taishang Gaozhen Palace. Now Penglai is the time to recruit people. Sooner or later, the enrollment will be expanded, and I will definitely be able to join the inner sect. If you are willing to agree, being my concubine will not be considered an insult to you..."

As he said this, he smiled and reached out to ruffle Xiao Yunan's hair. Xiao Yu'an subconsciously trembled and hid for a moment. Cheng Qianlong's eyes were sharp and his smile was cold, and he was about to have an attack.

As a result, before even a word could be uttered, Li Fan lifted up the guy by his collar and threw it away with a whoosh. He said to the stunned Xiao Yunan, "Don't worry, madam! King Poyang spent a lot of money to buy your safety." , just come to me if you need anything!"

Then he turned to Zhou Chengxue and winked, "Brother Zhou, look at what I did right."

Zhou Chengxue opened his jaw and watched as the man just spun hundreds of times, flew a thousand meters away, and fell into the sea with a thud. He didn't know whether he was alive or dead. He couldn't help but shudder, and waved his hand to stop the two men who had drawn their swords. The Jindan disciples told them not to come up to see them off, and said to Li Fan,

"Fellow Taoist... Alas, it was my lack of care that frightened Princess Anji. I will educate these juniors and prevent them from causing trouble for you."

Li Fan laughed loudly, "You're afraid, if this dude messes with you again, just scream, I'll snap! His head will be twisted at once!"

Xiao Yunan was startled by the red-haired man, but then her expression darkened, and she bowed and thanked her, "Thank you two for caring about me. It's okay. I had an old acquaintance with fellow Taoist Cheng, and he misunderstood me."

Zhou Chengxue saw that the Xiao family was under the roof, so he didn't dare to say anything more, and he didn't want to make a big fuss, so he made peace and said, "Since it's all a misunderstanding, we won't bother you. I will escort you to Penglai." .Princess, please rest assured."

Li Fan also knew that Zhou Chengxue was just looking at the favor given by his tiger claw hand, so he also smiled and stopped chasing the orphans and widows who were embarrassing the Xiao family. He waved Xiao Yunan away and turned to ask Zhou Chengxue.

"There are so many experts in Penglai. We still need to recruit troops, but we want to conquer Hou Gu and help the Xiao family recover? Then will my red-haired ghost Li Tang also have a chance to become famous in the world? Brother Zhou will give me a sure message. I only need a word from you." , Just Hou Gu is nothing! Watch me go up and click! His head will be twisted in one go!"

When Xiao Yunan heard this from behind, she immediately slowed down and pricked up her ears.

Zhou Chengxue didn't care, he just watched the other two Jindan disciples fly out of the boat to fish for people at sea, and said with his hands behind his back,

"We don't have to do it ourselves. We are not the only ones with property in Zhenzhou. It would be bad if we take the initiative too much. I'm afraid it will cause conflicts with other families. What's more, it's just a rebel general. If Sanyuan can't clean up the chaos in Zhenzhou, what will happen if Sanyuan can't deal with it? Jiangshan simply stop sitting.

Even if he is really unruly and hides behind the scenes, matters involving the mortal world will naturally be coordinated by Yuntai Peak, so Fellow Daoist Li does not need to worry. "

Xiao Yu'an was now sure that Penglai would not take action, so she staggered and walked away in confusion.

Li Fan was surprised, the world was in such chaos, where did they get the confidence to not worry about things at home?

Without waiting for him to ask, Master Zhou also explained, "Fellow Daoist Li, you are no longer just a casual cultivator, but a master of my outer sect in Penglai. You should be more prudent in everything.

What the heck are those military leaders? There are only hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. They can be overthrown with the use of magic weapons, but no one wants to get involved in this murderous karma. In the final analysis, there are three major factions fighting for the world. There is actually no point in getting involved in the corners here.

Let me tell you straightforwardly, Yuntai Peak has decided that the Nine Great Mysterious Sects will organize manpower to encircle and suppress Kunlun, the main altar of the Divine Religion! "

"What!" Li Fan was really shocked, "You want to travel all the way from the East China Sea to expedition to Kunlun? Are you too busy?"

Zhou Chengxue listened and smiled at Li Fan without saying a word.

So Li Fan also understood, "Do it! No wonder you are short of manpower! If you don't go, I will!"

Master Zhou laughed and said, "Fellow Taoist, you are worthy of being able to cultivate to Nascent Soul through casual cultivation. You do have some wit. You don't have to be like this. A good man has his ambitions in all directions. He lives in troubled times. If he doesn't strive to become famous all over the world, wouldn't he have wasted his life?" Ability?

You don’t have to worry that the Demon Sect seems to be powerful now. This time they stirred up troubles. Although they had the upper hand for a while, they also exposed too many tricks. I have so many masters in Xuanmen. It won’t take long for me to be counted among them. The direction, the location of Qi.

Now word has come down from Yuntai Peak that each faction is required to prepare troops and counterattack into the heart of the Demon Sect. I, Penglai, will join the ranks of the Nine Great Mysterious Sects, and of course I cannot be absent! Even if we can't destroy those demons this time, we still have to kill them in batches and give them a thorough beating! "

So that’s it, Xuanmen is going to take action himself. Yes, the Divine Sect looks so arrogant, but it only gives Immortal Palace a beating, and Xuanmen is actually not damaged at all. Maybe there is no Beichen Sword Sect taking the lead now, and all responses are a bit slower, but this does not mean that the relationship between Xuanmen and the Divine Sect has improved in the slightest. I think the crusade against the divine religion is a foregone conclusion, it's just a matter of time.

"Oh! Brother Zhou, I feel relieved now that you have said so! Okay! This time, I will use the devil's bastard's head to promote my reputation as a red-haired ghost! Brother Zhou, don't worry! If there are many devil bastards, I will Click! I pulled my head off and gave it to you as a souvenir! Hahaha! Hahahahahahahaha!"

Seeing Li Fan laughing like crazy, Zhou Chengxue couldn't help but shrink his neck and wipe his sweat.

After Cheng Qianlong was retrieved, everyone continued to sail eastward.

It's a pity that this man surnamed Cheng was very lucky. He probably had a magic weapon with him, and he took medicine to survive. As a result, his whole body was shaken to the point where his tibia was broken and he was paralyzed at a high level. However, he didn't die. He was tied up like a rice dumpling and couldn't move.

Now that he couldn't worship the moon and practice, and it was inconvenient to go to the inner cabin to interact with the female relatives, Li Fan came to play with him. Come up and pat the opponent's hanging thigh first.

"Boy! Cheng Qianlong, right? Did you see that! I am the outer gate of Taishang Shenzhen Palace to worship Li Tang! You know the elder of the outer gate! Let me tell you! I despise the scum who bully the widow the most! If it weren't for Brother Zhou In my face! I'll snap it! I'll twist your head off in one go! Your grandfather is also an inner disciple? That just shows the reputation of my red-haired ghost! Remember to go back and ask him to come over and fight with me! See if I don't snap it. !one time……"

Zhou Chengxue, "Ahem."

"Brother Zhou, why are you sick? Are you feeling unwell?" Li Fan had no choice but to reattach the broken thigh just now and turned around to ask with concern.

Cheng Qianlong couldn't move, so he watched Master Zhou begging for mercy.

Zhou Chengxue also rubbed his temples, "Fellow Taoist, please don't embarrass this junior. You are just a newbie. It's not good to offend others..."

Li Fan laughed and patted him on the shoulder, "Thank you, Brother Zhou, for thinking about me. It doesn't matter! I understand! Don't think I'm a reckless man. In fact, I have some rough edges and some fine points. It's all intentional!"

Zhou Chengxue and Cheng Qianlong stared at him with big eyes and small eyes, "...what do you mean?"

So Li Fan picked up the token and gestured, "Look! I'm the outer gate of Shenzhen Palace, right? This guy's grandfather is from Gaozhen Palace. Then when we get to Penglai later, his grandfather will see that I'm moving." Sun, according to the normal plot, he will definitely come to challenge him. Then I will slap his grandfather’s head! "Ahem! "A beating will not only enhance my reputation, but also show that I am standing on the boat of Shenzhen Palace and have no second thoughts!"

do not worry! Submit your certificate! I grew up working in the mountains, and I have done a lot of things to help the eldest boss and the second boss, and I understand everything! Just a look from you and I’ll click! This kid's whole family was screwed up at once! No problem! "

Cheng Qianlong looked like he was about to faint.

Zhou Chengxue was also stunned for a long time, and after organizing his words for a long time, he sighed, "Oh, Fellow Daoist Li, Brother Li, I am very pleased that you are so active in joining the gang, but our faction does not have that kind of infighting..."

Li Fan snorted, "Brother Zhou, it doesn't make sense to say that! Even though I'm a rough guy, I still know that your sect is so big, with three mountains and nine palaces! There must be factions on the top of the mountains! I am too honest and I don’t understand those twists and turns. In order to avoid standing in the wrong team in the future, I should first take out his grandfather and beat him up, cut off his retreat, and show his loyalty to Shenzhen Palace!"

"How can I show my loyalty like this!" Zhou Chengxue was so big-headed that he had to drag Li Fan outside, "Oh... ok, ok, I will tell you clearly about our sect, but don't The chaos is dragging me down.”

"Oh! Thanks for the advice, Brother Zhou! Come on, I have food and wine here, let's eat and chat!"

Zhou Chengxue was stunned when he saw that Li Fan skillfully set up the table to start the banquet. The cups of tea were actually quite elegant, which didn't quite fit the red-haired ghost's painting style. But thinking about it, he probably got it from someone else. It was easy to understand that he had robbed him, so he accepted the kindness and began to chat with Li Fan about the secrets of Penglai's inner sect.

Indeed, as Li Fan said, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. A large organization like Penglai does have factions within it. Nine palaces are divided from one sect, which means there are differences and mountains. Because of the elite teacher-training system like Xuanmen, there will inevitably be an unavoidable problem.

When passing on the title of head, should it be passed on to one's apprentice, one's junior brother, or one's senior uncle?

The most ideal situation, of course, would be for the head disciples to be the direct disciples of the same line, and then the head brothers would become the elders and protectors of the sect. But what if the junior disciple has a higher level of cultivation and better qualifications than the apprentice? Or maybe your junior apprentice’s apprentice has a higher level of cultivation and better qualifications than your apprentice? If someone is dissatisfied, is there going to be an internal fight? If there is no internal fighting, will there be division of clans?

Beichen Sword Sect adopts a classic solution, which is to fight with swords. If you don't accept it, you will fight. The one who survives will be the leader.

Penglai's solution is also more classic, which is to divide the sect. In the past, there was only one Taishangzhenzong. Later, there were many enlightened monks coexisting, and the position of head was passed down from direct lineage, and the palaces were divided. So gradually, the palaces of Lingzhen Shenzhenzhenzhenzhenxuanzhentaizhen and Gaozhenshangzhen appeared side by side. In the end, it was simply changed to the Taishang Jiuzhen Sect, in order to avoid dividing it too far and too far, which would weaken the strength of the sect. Even if it was divided into the Jiugong, it was not planned to be divided again. The Taoist Enlightenment Lord was the master of the palace, and the god-transformation monk was the acting palace master. The palace master discussed with the palace master and recommended the most popular one to be the head of the palace.

Now there are three Enlightenment Taoists in Penglai, and each of the three fairy mountains is commanded by a great Enlightenment monk.

The current head of the Taishang Jiuzhen Sect, the Lord of Penglai, is the Supreme True Manifestation Taoist Lord from the Supreme True Palace. As for Fanghu Yingzhou Erxian Mountain, the Tao Lord of Lingzhen Xuanzhen Second Palace is in charge.

The other disciples of the Sixth Palace are also practicing in the three mountains. However, after all, there are so many resources in Penglai that there is no need to compete. The three Dao Lords do not have such big differences. At most, they have a better relationship with whichever side they have. It’s just a fairy island to practice. So in theory, both Shenzhen Palace and Gaozhen Palace are practicing in Penglai. If you insist on saying that, they are all supporting the leader of Zhizhen Palace.

"...I see, there are so many true immortals in Penglai and so many disciples, it's really enviable..."

Probably because he was close to Penglai, Li Fan could see the rosy glow on the horizon from a distance, and the escaping lights overhead, like thousands of auroras. He thought they were real immortals passing by in the wind. Comparing them with the desolate scene of the Jian Zong Ancestral Hall, it was also a momentary sight. Somewhat disappointed.

Zhou Chengxue finished his drink and said, "It's not necessarily better if there are more people. Now this one has enmity with outsiders, and now that one is in trouble outside. From time to time, someone comes to ask for your help. After all, they are all from the same discipline, and they are unkind and unfriendly. They want to help but are unable to do enough. They even have no time for their own practice, which is very annoying.

Brother Li, I understand your eagerness to make meritorious deeds when you first entered the sect, but I advise you not to attach too much importance to those false reputations. In the final analysis, your own cultivation is the most real. This time, I have made great achievements in defeating the demon sect. I have earned a superior Dharma door and sealed a pure dojo, so I can practice behind closed doors. The Demon Sect is so far away from the East China Sea, and there is even more powerful Emei standing there, so there is nothing to worry about.

Okay, here we are. "

Zhou Chengxue said and rose up against the wind, holding the jade pendant and making a move. The brightness in front of Li Fan's eyes changed, and he felt that the sky had suddenly turned cloudy. He turned around and saw that the bow of the ship seemed to have opened a curtain and removed the phantom, suddenly revealing a huge sea wall. Although there was no storm, there was a sea wall as high as a hundred feet high. , the water is as black as ink, covering the sky and the sun, as if a wave is about to overturn the world, and the momentum is terrifying.

Zhou Chengxue threw the jade pendant in his hand and threw it into the sea wall. Suddenly, there was a roar, and the sky and the earth split. The sea wall in front of him, with tens of billions of tons of sea water, opened up to both sides, revealing a water channel like a line between the gorges. Come, the waves are floating, pulling the treasure ship slowly through.

And from between the water valley, there was a golden light, nine colors of rosy light, rushing toward the face, so bright that people could not open their eyes. After walking for several miles, they passed between the wall of the sky and the sea, and there was a fairy mountain as if coming from there. It seems to jump out from the bottom of the sea and come into view.

The Golden Pavilion and Silver Palace are romantic, and the precious trees and flowers stretch into the sky. This is Penglai.

Pengqiu, Penglai Mountain is also. Towards the northeast coast of the East China Sea, the circumference is five thousand miles. Outside, there is a round sea surrounding the mountain. The round sea water is black, so it is called the underworld sea. There is no wind but the waves are hundreds of feet high, and no one can go back and forth. Only flying immortals can reach it.
