Chapter 612: No Cold
The four parties were distributed around the room, and the two cross roads in the middle intersected at the center of the hall, with a huge circular platform at the intersection.
The overall layout was very novel and suitable for the current situation.
In this case, everyone was arranged to sit down, and no one was treated well or criticized.
So the seating went quite smoothly.
······
After a while, everyone sat down one after another, and the banquet began.
Although the Sun family had tried their best to organize it, Wang Zijia thought that a banquet organized by an infant god family was just so-so, not to mention the tribulation master and the people in the ritual courtyard.
If the four families had not supported some supplies, who knows what the situation would be.
Of course, everyone was not here to participate in any banquet this time, so not many people cared about these.
"Friend Ding, your Wanyu has been in the limelight recently, and it looks like a gathering of wind and clouds!" A moment after the banquet started, Wenren Shouqing, the leader of the Feixian camp, was the first to open the ramp.
"It's more than just a chance meeting. Nine Tribulations Thunder Tribulations become infants, Five Changes Disaster Tribulations are used to overcome tribulations, more than a thousand fake infants, tens of thousands of real people ascend in a small world, all these things, in normal times, are earth-shattering events, but now they are coming one after another, too numerous to count."
Du Yudao also immediately said: "If this continues, I think it will not take a hundred years for us and other sects to follow the lead of Fellow Daoist Ding and Wanyu!"
As he spoke, many eyes turned to Wang Zijia again.
"Fellow Daoist Du knows the situation of my sect better than I, the headmaster." Ding Haiping glanced at Du Yudao coldly and replied.
"Isn't it because my family is so cultivated that they always like to make trouble for no matter what!" Du Yudao replied with a smile.
"Really? I thought many disciples of my sect were surnamed Du!" Zhang Decheng replied.
Du Yudao smiled and didn't reply, as if he didn't hear the retort in his words.
But the great elder Zhao Jianping beside Du Yudao had frowned several times.
Wenren Shouqing, who had felt something, didn't want to continue like this, so he stopped chatting and directly brought the topic to business.
"We got news a few days ago that the three major demon sects have been meeting frequently in recent times. Although they may not return to the close relationship during the Blood Demon Sect period, it is inevitable that they will be united again."
Du Yudao immediately followed up and said, "According to the information from all parties that my pavilion has received, after summarizing it, it is almost certain that the demon sects will form an alliance."
"And it is probably led by the Bone Soul Temple and supplemented by the two families to form an alliance. The details have been finalized recently, and these things are not done in secret."
"In other words, it won't be long before they are about to take action. They may even start a large-scale attack at any time."
As Wenren Shouqing and Du Yudao spoke, everyone was silent for a moment. The atmosphere of the entire banquet suddenly became solemn and depressing.
"Once this demon sect forms an alliance, my sect will definitely be the first to bear the brunt, and it is absolutely inevitable that it will be the first to be sacrificed."
"But after my sect, can you rest easy?" Ding Haiping looked around and said bluntly:
"Today, I called you here to discuss a common rule of advance and retreat, so that we can support each other and work together!"
After a moment of silence, Wenren Shouqing took over and said:
"The alliance must be formed, but with what rules? The coalition meeting? Or re-establishing the Immortal Alliance?"
Before this topic started, Li Jiantao from the Daqian camp who had not spoken suddenly interrupted and said: "Before that, I want to confirm a piece of news with Fellow Daoist Ding."
"Fellow Daoist Li, what do you say?" Ding Haiping looked at Li Jiantao seriously.
"The news that there is a turbid fairy in the Bone Soul Temple was first spread from your sect, right? I need to confirm this with Fellow Daoist Ding in person, whether it is a rumor or a true story." Li Jiantao asked.
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Ding Haiping.
Although the turbid immortals and scattered immortals are extremely despised in the eyes of real immortals, even more despised than the cultivators who cross the tribulation, at least there is still a possibility of becoming an immortal after crossing the tribulation.
Of course, it is better than a failed counterfeit.
But in the eyes of the cultivators who cross the tribulation, especially the cultivators who cross the tribulation in the Zhenling Realm, turbid immortals and scattered immortals, he is also an immortal!
Hearing this, Ding Haiping said without hesitation:
"This is absolutely true. My senior brother and I discovered it when we were destroying the headquarters of the Bone Soul Temple. The previous master of the Bone Soul Temple, Qi Chounu, has definitely become a turbid immortal, and it has been quite a while."
Everyone got a positive reply, and their expressions became heavy.
Du Yudao frowned and said, "Qi Chounu has been in seclusion for nearly a thousand years. If he is really a turbid immortal, it can only be the time when the rumors of the secret realm appearing in the world and the explosion of thunder to destroy the world were spread a thousand years ago. Those movements and rumors should be caused by his failure to overcome the tribulation."
"But this doesn't make sense! With his temper, if he really became a turbid immortal, let alone retiring honestly, he would be lucky enough not to use our family as a blood sacrifice to celebrate and devour us!"
Du Yudao paused and added, "Of course, I don't question Fellow Daoist Ding's intention, I just can't figure it out."
Li Shenghui suddenly interrupted at this moment, "Did Fellow Daoist Ding fight last time? Can you confirm which one or which flower of Qi Chounu was shattered by the thunder tribulation? Or which one did he finally condense into?"
Ding Haiping shook his head and said, "That Qi Chounu sealed himself in a strange place. At that time, my senior brother and I caught the Demon Sect off guard and raided their headquarters. Seeing that the Taoist sect was destroyed and thousands of years of heritage were about to be destroyed, the other party could not help but attack."
"However, before he rushed out, my senior brother and I were both shocked and sensed the other party's turbid fairy aura, so we retreated quickly."
"So it was not a direct fight, but the fairy soul of his divine flower must have been fully developed. I am not sure whether the remaining two flowers of essence and energy condensed by the two paths were successful."
"Self-sealed?" Li Shenghui asked.
"Yes, if it were not so, we suddenly got into their sect at that time, and it was really uncertain who would take advantage. We might have been caught in a trap. Now I think about it and I am still grateful." Ding Haiping said with lingering fear.
Li Shenghui heaved a sigh of relief and said, "That demon started his career with the bloodline transformation. He was invincible in the same level with the evil dragon transformation."
"Since he had to seal himself, it is obvious that not only did he fail to become an immortal body, but his body should have been destroyed. Then the transformation dragon body of the essence of the one way was naturally destroyed for the most part."
"For the rest, whether it is only the immortal soul, or the immortal soul and immortal essence are condensed, the difference will not be very big. At least... we are not hopeless."
As the oldest and most experienced person present, Li Shenghui has experienced the entire era of Qi Chounu's rise, so he has the most say.
Li Jiantao's expression flickered at this moment, and he said, "In other words, he sealed himself to solve the problem of the collapse of the immortal body? He also wants to ascend to immortality again?"
"Probably! This person has always been very ambitious, and he probably doesn't want to be a turbid immortal and live on!" Wenren Shouqing continued.
"Isn't it said that once the immortal fruit is condensed, it cannot be changed by reincarnation?" Zhang Decheng frowned and interrupted.
Li Shenghui looked at the newly promoted tribulation cultivator and explained:
"The turbid immortal only has a part of the power of the immortal. Whether it is the condensed immortal essence or the immortal soul, it only enhances the power of the Tao and the art, without the blessing of the fruit position."
"The power of the immortal path fruit position will make the art undergo a qualitative change in essence and derive magical powers. This is also the basis for the immortals to crush mortals."
"The so-called study of classics, magical powers will be self-made, in fact, it means that the immortals only need to comprehend the classics, and under the influence of the fruit position, they will naturally give birth to their own initial magical powers."
"If it is not so, how can the turbid immortals and scattered immortals not be recognized as immortals by the immortals!"
"If it is not so, how can the tribulation cultivators compete with them? Even if they have immortal tools in hand, the difference is not big."
As the most knowledgeable group of people in Zhenling Domain, they gathered together, and after a few words of communication, they understood the situation roughly.
"Since it is not a situation that cannot be defeated, then let's talk about how to form an alliance!" Wenren Shouqing saw that the matter was clear and brought the topic back again.
Everyone was silent for a moment, and no one wanted to take the lead.
Seeing this, Ding Haiping could only open his mouth and propose: "How about opening the Immortal Alliance again? After all, that's how we came about. Although so many years have passed and many things are different, the system can be adjusted!"
Both Daqian and Feixian frowned, and Du Yudao opened his mouth to speak, but held back.
The elder Zhao Jianping beside him didn't hold back, and said directly:
"Mortals know that we can't restore the old order. We have been separated for many years. Can we get together again? Without the Immortal Lord, how can we accomplish anything?"
"Or do you plan to use Feixian's method, what kind of alliance council decides the daily affairs of the Immortal Alliance? Isn't this going to Feixian's territory to discuss matters?"
"Why did Brother Zhao drag my sect to talk about things!" Wenren Shouqing said speechlessly.
"Just talking about the matter at hand. If you really want to discuss things in the Alliance Council, isn't it your private land?"
"As for the Immortal Alliance...when they split up, there was no Immortal Lord, and no one made decisions with final say, and finally they came to this point. Even if they are forced to get together again, this problem doesn't need to be solved?" Zhao Jianping replied.
Of course, the reason why he opposed it was not just because of this.
It was also because the Immortal Alliance had only three divisions back then, and their Wentian Pavilion was just a small force under it.
Later, during the process of the three sects fighting the demons, they quietly hid in the rear and made a fortune.
If they really want to re-establish the Immortal Alliance, even if they create a fourth division, they are destined to be marginalized.
Some rules are really stubborn.
"Then how does Brother Zhao want to form an alliance?" Ding Haiping asked back.
Zhao Jianping shook his head and said, "I don't have any ideas. I'm just expressing my views on the Immortal Alliance."
Ding Haiping hit such a soft and hard nail, and did not continue to ask questions. Everyone fell silent again.
