Chapter 389 Planning

He finally accepted Chang Xun's favor, and he felt uneasy whether he had to repay it or not.

If he had taken action in the city tower that day, with the incense monk's power, he would have been seriously injured.

If another flag officer who was not familiar with him came, his life would be lost. Although Magistrate Hu finally came after him, he saved his own life.

There were some things that he had to pay back.

After the words fell, Chi Xuan turned around and went to the dungeon of Jimingguan to release those imprisoned.

"Captain Gu, are you okay?"

"Have a rest for now."

Gu Ming spit out a large mouthful of blood.

He was indeed no match for the fallen Taoist, but surviving like this made him feel even more insulted to his status as a monk. However, he couldn't teach Chang Xun a lesson, because Chang Xun wanted to save his life.

"Where did that Taoist come from?"

"It's really awesome."

"I felt like I couldn't get close to the midfielder."

The flag officers beside him talked one by one, but they all knowingly did not mention what Chang Xun did just now. This matter may be big or small, but nothing will happen if you don't mention it.

"I don't know. I only know that the original Taoist priest was a mountain monk. He had already achieved good cultivation when we last met. I didn't expect that two years later, he would already have such a Taoist practice."

"Two years? You mean, his cultivation was not like this two years ago?"

Chang Xun seemed to realize the problem. After being stunned, he murmured in surprise: "Two years."

Incense Dao monks may be able to break through their own cultivation so quickly, but true cultivation requires spiritual energy. It just so happens that their world's spiritual energy is not sufficient. If they want to support a Dao-based monk, they need a huge amount of spiritual energy.

Gu Ming suddenly realized that something was strange.

At least he is still alive, and there will still be time to find out the truth of the matter.

Captain Gu also became suspicious of what the down-and-out monk said.

…

The prison cell was opened, and many skinny, unstable and swaying people came out.

They had no extra energy to speak, and no more tears to shed.

He looked dazed and looked haggard.

He looked completely exhausted.

"This this……"

The flag officers had been talking for a long time, but they didn't say a complete sentence. They all looked at each other, not knowing what to say, so they simply closed their mouths and turned their eyes to Colonel Gu, who was recovering from his injuries.

They didn't know that Jimingguan originally did such a thing.

"This is..." Chang Xun was also stunned and froze on the spot.

Compared with incense cultivation, true cultivation can indeed be said to be otherworldly.

"They don't have much life left."

Tu Shanjun said something.

Even if people are rescued, these people are not far from death. They only have their last breath left. They must use magic power and incense to protect them. Once the protection is removed, they will die soon.

There are also some tortured inhuman figures. When they come out of the dungeon and see the sun again, they are like the ghosts in the tombs who dare not face the light of the outside world and cower in the dark corners.

Chi Xuan raised his head: "It is better to die standing in the sun than to stink in prison and no one knows about it."

"At least... they can still choose their own burial place."

He thought he would become strong enough when he reached the foundation-building realm, but he still had no way to save people. All we can do is allow them to have some freedom for a short time and choose to die in a cleaner place.

Tushanjun has long been used to this kind of thing.

As one's cultivation grows stronger, one's heart becomes hardened.

Until a figure fell to the ground lifeless, Chi Xuan held the magic formula and read the Taoist scriptures for salvation.

Then he turned around and left with his sword, heading towards the large county town of Long County.

Captain Gu and his party all looked shocked.

It seemed like it was their first time seeing such a scene. I don’t know if they were too unrealistic, or if they had some associations but were snuffed out and no longer paid attention to them.

All in all, this incident had a great impact on them.

Chang Xun stood there, not knowing what he was thinking.

Captain Gu, who had recovered somewhat from his injuries, sighed and said, "Take the body away."

Perhaps thinking of something, Gu Ming pondered slightly and added: "The imperial court will naturally investigate the matter here thoroughly. It is not our place for the Demon Subduing Yamen to interfere. Just do your duty."

The power of subjugating demons is great, and just because the power is great, there are also more restrictions.

The most important thing is that they cannot interfere in local government affairs.

…

It was already approaching evening when he left Long County. The indigo robe on Chi Xuan's body was completely dyed red, without any trace of other colors. It looked particularly dazzling in the sunset.

Chi Xuan killed many people.

They were all people involved in the kidnapping incident. The high-ranking official who went to Long County was crushed into a pulp by him, and he especially felt that it was not enough to satisfy his hatred.

The setting sun on both sides of the distant mountains has already hidden itself in the low mountains, blocking out a large area of ​​light and dragging Chi Xuan's shadow very long.

The shadow hung far behind him.

Maybe there’s no need to wait until tomorrow.

Before the sun goes down, his wanted poster will appear on the walls of every state and county.

The court might even send monks to suppress him.

However, he did not feel fear, but instead felt pleasure.

It was as if he had finally broken free of his shackles and gained some respite of freedom.

"Demon Lord, what kind of cultivation do I need to help you return?" People are always happy after a great revenge is avenged, and Chi Xuan also understands who he relies on and who he gets his strength from.

Of course he will not forget the agreement he made with Tushanjun.

Regarding this issue, Tu Shanjun has long thought about it. He feels that Chi Xuan must at least reach the middle and late stages of Jindan, and at least master the realm. It would be better if he could understand his own artistic conception.

However, the more critical thing should be the incense seal in his hand. I don't know what kind of power inspired the seal to open the rift and return to the small wilderness.

The cultivation level of foundation building can also be piled up by relying on heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

Even if Chi Xuan couldn't figure out his own way and couldn't reach the fake elixir realm, he could still fill in more than half of it with resources. The only thing you need to worry about is the disaster you will face when you break through the golden elixir.

The thunder tribulation is visible and tangible, but the golden elixir tribulation is all-encompassing and I don’t know what it is specifically.

"Golden elixir master realm."

After hearing Tu Shanjun's answer, Chi Xuan murmured: "Golden elixir... Grandmaster level."

"The first step is to practice Taoism and step into the golden elixir. Originally, we were just laying the foundation. The division between Qi training and foundation building is actually not strict. It is the right step..." Tu Shanjun rarely gave a long speech to popularize the basic knowledge of spiritual practice for Chi Xuan. .

Chi Xuan listened while walking.

Only then did he understand that this was what cultivation was like.

Qi training, foundation building, golden elixir.

He is now in the early stage of foundation building. If he wants to condense the golden elixir, he needs to expand his Dantian to the maximum and liquefy all the mana to visualize the power of the Yin God.

Only after completing this process can you achieve perfection.

Tu Shanjun didn't tell Chi Xuan about the Jindan realm. Telling him now would inevitably suppress the spirit of forge ahead and make people obsessed. It would be better to wait until the foundation building is complete before explaining it.

What follows is a summary of today’s battle.

Chi Xuan listened with great interest.

There is a great practitioner who specializes in preaching. This is the greatest opportunity.

Chi Xuan is also considering the next path.

He planned to return to Red Sheep Palace first and then make long-term plans.

I had been hiding for a long time before, but now it's just the same as before, hiding and cultivating slowly.

No matter how many monks the imperial court dispatches, they will not mobilize too many Demon-Conquering Captains to deal with him. Without the suppression of the Demon-Conquering Captain, demons and ghosts everywhere will explode.

Compared with the things he did, the world was more important.

Chi Xuan also asked Tu Shanjun for his opinion.

Tu Shanjun made it clear that he was not the only rebel in the world.

Those behemoths that have developed are also quite troublesome for the court to deal with, and most of them focus on recruiting peace.

Speaking of rebellion, Chi Xuan remembered a story his master once told him.

That happened fifty years ago.

A highly respected monk in the imperial court rose up.

As soon as it broke out, it caused a huge wave, with large armies arrayed and high-level cultivators appearing frequently, launching an unprecedented war. It was because of this that we had fifty years of rest and recuperation. What happened after that was just a small fight.

The monks who were called Taibao on the eight hundred miles of Huaihe River finally surrendered to the imperial court and sought an official position.

…

The sword is flying.

Chi Xuan has returned to Chiyang Palace.

Chiyang Palace was quiet. Chi Xuan released his spiritual consciousness and suddenly found that there were many more people, all gathered in Chiyang Palace.

His expression darkened, and he thought to himself, the court's actions were so fast.

Before he could react, soldiers had been arranged to guard Chiyang Palace.

But upon closer inspection, I realized that he was not a soldier.

Turning over and entering the Taoist temple, Chixuan found that these people were common people who were sick. He knew most of them. The leader who gathered in the Taoist temple was Zhou Hui.

"Taoist priest?"

Zhou Hui, who was writing something at his desk, suddenly became surprised when he saw Chi Xuan. He heard that something big happened in Long County, so he stepped up his efforts to gather the sick people. Unexpectedly, the Taoist priest would return to the Taoist temple at this moment.

This gives him confidence.

Seeing Chi Xuan's Taoist robe stained red with blood, he was shocked: "Taoist Master, you..."

Chi Xuan waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, these are not my blood."

"Is there a man named He San who has come to seek refuge?"

Zhou Hui shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it."

After speaking, he carefully observed Chi Xuan to make sure that what Chi Xuan said was true and that there were indeed no injuries on his body. Then he said: "Taoist Master, while you are not here, I asked them to go to the surrounding village chiefs to search for the people. A total of Five hundred and seventy-two people gathered, most of them young and strong."

Those who can stand it are mostly young adults.

Old people and children who contract the disease will soon look like Old Man Yang.

Chi Xuan was shocked. He didn't expect that there were only about ten people there, but in the past two or three days, Zhou Hui had organized so many people, and they were all young and strong.

With these people, and the devil's magic skills, conquering the county government will not be a problem.

Zhou Hui took out a rough map from behind the straw mat, laid it flat on the table, and picked up the wick of the lamp to make the flame brighter.

Then he suppressed his excitement and said slowly: "Taoist Master, the county government will not notice us now. As long as you cure those people and make them stronger, we can capture the county seat."

"When the time comes, by using his identity and paying taxes to pay the bills, he will be able to control the county government in his own hands."

"Based on Jixian County, we will capture Longxian County to the east and guard the Longhe River artery. We will capture Qixian County to the west and block the mountain passes to form a situation that is vulnerable and difficult to attack."

"If we expand to the surrounding counties and cities, continue to heal the people, and give them the strength to join us, we can capture Juling County."

"Finally, face the world, take healing as the main doctrine as a supplement, and unite the hearts of the world."

"When the time comes, we can use the world to attack the imperial court and take its place."

The more Zhou Hui spoke, the more confident he became. He looked at Chi Xuan with a keen eye and said in a low voice: "Of course, we also need a monk who is strong enough to stand in and resist the pressure of the court, that is you, Taoist Priest."

"As long as we move secretly, we can gather all the people in Juling County, and the court will also need to weigh it."

Chi Xuan looked at Zhou Hui in shock, whose face was illuminated by candlelight.

Even he himself had never thought about such a path. He just felt that he needed to continuously improve his cultivation and then overthrow the imperial court, but he had no specific plan.

"Taoist Priest, you have power, and you have a way to give us power. Why can't you help us survive?"

"We want to survive."
