It's just that this magic weapon must be a True Yuan Stage monk to exert enough power. There are definitely no True Yuan Stage monks in the Ji family now. They can only use spirit stones to activate the formation, so the power exerted in this way is extremely weak.
Less than one-tenth of the original.
Just one tenth of this was enough to keep him out of the formation.
Over the years, Yuwen Zhouyuan has also seen a lot of defensive formations, such as phantom formations, which are glowing with blue light and mist. He has never seen such a formation with unknown power. He will not risk it easily.
Yes, it's not worth risking your life for this.
Yuwen Zhouyuan pondered for a moment, then turned around and said to Wen Zhengming and others: "The Ji family in Dezhou City has inherited it for at least thousands of years. It is not unusual to have such a strange formation. Otherwise, I am afraid that the Ji family would have long ago
Someone even picked up the pot."
Wen Zhengming nodded and said: "Forget it, the immortal cultivators of the Ji family are hiding in the palace and don't dare to come out. Let's ignore them for now. Even if we can't take the palace of Prince Ji, our Qiankun Alliance will win at least half of the city in this battle for strongholds.
.Now I will lead people directly to conquer the major gangs in the southern part of Dezhou City."
The Qiankun Alliance launched a massive attack. In just three days, the leaders of the various gangs in the south of Dezhou City could not bear the pressure from the Qiankun Alliance and surrendered one after another.
The situation is stronger than the people, and the strong are respected in the world. Prince Ji's Mansion is clinging to the palace and cannot protect them. They can only turn around and seek refuge with the Qiankun Alliance.
"Longfeng Gang, gang leader Lin Fanxuan, led the gang to submit to the Qiankun Alliance."
"The leader of the Hundred Swords Alliance, Li Zhengnan, has led everyone to submit to the Qiankun Alliance."
"Brotherhood, the leader Hong Jiuru, led everyone to submit to the Qiankun Alliance."...
Most of the local gangs in Dezhou controlled by Prince Ji's Mansion surrendered in just a few days, and the situation in Dezhou City changed drastically. Almost all gangs, large and small, were shaken.
Even the hawkers and gangsters on the streets knew that the situation in Dezhou City had changed. Prince Ji's Mansion was no longer the only person in charge, and the Qiankun Alliance was rising strongly in Dezhou City.
Almost half of the power of Prince Ji's Mansion has been cut off. Given time, it will be easy for the Qiankun Alliance to capture the entire Dezhou City.
The ups and downs of the gangs in Texas were limited to Jianghu gangs in Texas and had little impact on the general public in Dezhou City. The rise of gang forces was only limited to the two strongholds of Dehui Inn and Prince Ji's Mansion, and
Before it spread to a large area, there were surprisingly few casualties among the gangs, and no innocent people were harmed. Even the state capital of Dezhou City did not intervene.
The New Year is approaching, and the city of Dezhou is becoming more and more lively.
The Immortal Dao Fighting Conference jointly organized by the Zhenyan Temple, Shuanglong Temple, Qing'an, Dalong Temple, and more than ten popular Taoist temples in Dezhou City was also held on schedule, attracting hundreds of thousands of people from inside and outside the city.
Watch.
Under this grand gathering, the battle between the Qiankun Alliance and Prince Ji's Mansion for territory did not attract anyone's attention.
In this fighting ceremony in Dezhou City, the Zhenyan Guanyun Temple at one end of the main street in the east of the city is the leading Taoist temple in Dezhou. Even in the entire Northern Wei Dynasty, it is also famous and ranks among the top three.
In the prosperous city of Dezhou, where every inch of land is precious, the Mantra Temple covers an area of nearly 100 acres. The entire building complex is even larger than the Dezhou City Government Office and Prince Ji's Mansion. There is an endless stream of believers who come to offer incense every day.
On the vermilion bronze door of the Taoist temple, there is a gold lacquer plaque hanging high, with the four words "Xianfeng Mantra" written on it. It has a flying dragon and a phoenix, which has an extraordinary momentum. Just one look at it can make people feel refreshed and all the trivial worries in daily life disappear.
It is said that this was written by a famous immortal who came from the Northern Wei Dynasty hundreds of years ago when he visited the host of Zhenyan Temple. It is one of the immortal traces of Zhenyan Temple. Therefore, Zhenyan Temple got its name and became famous.
There used to be rumors in the market that one out of every three people in Texas was a believer in Mantra, and the other two were his wives, concubines, and children. This shows that Mantra was so popular that almost every household believed in it.
Of course, some people sneered at the statement. The people of Dezhou did not believe in Zhenyan Temple, but the Taoism of the Immortal Family. It was only that almost most of the famous Taoist priests in Dezhou were in Zhenyan Temple, so the people in Dezhou always went to Zhenyan Temple.
At this time, it was the first meeting of the fighting ceremony. In front of the gate of Zhenyan Taoist Temple, more than ten Taoist priests with slim looks and immortal demeanor were lined up to welcome guests from all walks of life.
On this day, a young man in a white shirt walked to the outside of Zhenyan Temple, looked at the four words "Xianfeng Zhenyan" on the plaque on the gate of the Taoist temple and smiled lightly.
I am afraid that the immortal from hundreds of years ago was also a wonderful person. There is nothing surprising about the four words on the plaque. It is just that there is a formation of pure heart and concentration engraved on the plaque. When people look at it, they will naturally feel extremely refreshed and troubled.
All eliminated.
This person is none other than Yuwen Zhouyuan.
He promised to stay in Dezhou City for half a month to help Wen Zhengming, and with the help of Yaowen, Mu Huali and others, they could seize Dezhou City from Prince Ji's Mansion. Only five or six days had passed, and there were still several days left.
Yuwen Zhouyuan originally had no intention of coming to see this fighting ceremony held in the Mantra Temple. He just waited for the matters here to be settled, and then headed to Donglin Kingdom with Yufeng.
However, the people in Prince Ji's Mansion huddled in the mansion and did not come out to fight, leaving Yuwen Zhouyuan to do nothing for the remaining few days.
Out of boredom, Yuwen Zhouyuan remembered what the innkeeper Mei Da had been nagging about all day long, so he came to see what was going on in the secular world of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
Yuwen Zhouyuan came to the door of Zhenyan Taoist Temple and handed over a door sticker inlaid with gold. Then he entered the Zhenyan Temple.
Such a door post is extremely "heavy" and is worth a hundred gold leaves to buy.
Only five thousand believers are allowed to enter the Taoist temple to watch this battle in person, and they need to hold special door stickers such as the Mantra Temple.
Those who can enter the Mantra Contemplation are not wealthy landowners and merchants, but powerful officials.
Ordinary people are not allowed to enter and can only wait outside the Taoist temple.
Of course, they also have a way to "see" the fighting between masters. Because there will be some scholars and scholars in the fighting arena, who will record the words and deeds of the masters' fighting scenes one by one, and transmit them to many restaurants and teahouses outside the Taoist temple, and then
The storyteller subtly and subtly performed the whole process in the restaurant and teahouse in front of all the tea guests, to the delight of all the believers.
When Yuwen Zhouyuan went there, the fighting competition had already begun.
Yuwen Zhouyuan entered the Zhenyan Taoist Temple and came to a huge square in the temple. At this time, he saw that the square was surrounded by darkness. Almost all the seats were filled with thousands of guests and believers. Such a large crowd was silent.
It's truly magical.
In the middle of the square, there is a square high platform, with four secular monks with immortal demeanor sitting on four sides with serious expressions, sitting and talking about the immortal way of mind.
The voice is loud and contagious, even at the farthest table in the square, you can hear it clearly.
Yu Wenzhouyuan casually sat down at a vacant table in the square, ordered a few plates of vegetable side dishes and light wine, and listened while drinking.
In this battle of wits, the first monks on the stage will each talk about their own views on the Immortal Way of the Mind, and then they will argue with each other about whose view is better. Only when one party is refuted and rendered speechless can they be considered the winner.
This kind of fighting continues one after another until the person with the most profound skills in this fighting competition is determined.
Speaking of which, this is also very funny.
Yuwen Zhouyuan is a real immortal cultivator, but in this secular Taoist temple, he listens to a group of mortals who have never really practiced immortality, arguing about how to cultivate immortality. If this spreads out, I am afraid that the secular mortals will be stunned and let go.
The cultivators laughed it off and denounced it as ridiculous and grotesque.
Therefore, although the Northern Wei Dynasty's martial arts competition is extremely famous in the secular world, it is almost never mentioned by monks in the world of immortal cultivators in Dongyang Continent, and it has no reputation. It's just that Yuwen Zhouyuan doesn't care about the taboos of immortal cultivators, and now
There was nothing important, so he just came to this fight to listen.
At first, Yuwen Zhouyuan didn't pay much attention to the opinions of these secular masters. Because the secular Taoist priests had never really practiced immortal skills, some of the words they said were full of loopholes, which was normal. Naturally, he couldn't help but laugh secretly.
.
But after listening for a while, he occasionally became startled and stopped picking up the food and wine with his chopsticks.
It is not for nothing that these secular Taoist priests have gained such great fame. Among secular mortals, there are also extraordinary talents with extraordinary minds and talents.
Although they cannot cultivate immortality, it does not mean that they have no talent. Occasionally, they will say one or two amazing words that are enough to leave a name in the history of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Yuwen Zhouyuan was so shocked that he could not recover for a long time.
At the fighting venue, once the audience heard the shocking words, they became excited and cheered loudly.
Let Yuwen Zhouyuan look at the secular Taoist priests on the high platform in a trance, and fell into deep thought. Unknowingly, the food and wine on the table were tasteless, and his whole mind was on the arguments of the secular Taoist priests on the high platform.
After listening to the argument for a long time, Yuwen Zhouyuan's original attitude of contempt and contempt was restrained.
Not many people are qualified to take the stage at the annual fighting ceremony.
The most famous Taoist temples, temples, and academies on the immortal path in Dezhou City each sent one person with extremely high mental state to participate. In total, there were only sixteen people with extremely high moral standing who were qualified to participate.
In each battle, four people are on the stage at the same time. These four people, either two against two or one against three, argue about the morality of cultivating the state of mind. Only the winner can stay on the stage.
The battle of wits progressed very quickly, and a few days later came the final debate.
Yuwen Zhouyuan even smiled bitterly. He only regretted that he had studied science and was not good at liberal arts. When the experts on the stage were arguing fiercely, they burst out some extremely rare and ancient words, which made it difficult for him to listen. He didn't quite understand.
Yuwen Zhouyuan could only write it down in his mind and slowly reflect on its profound meaning.
The last battle was between a white-browed old Taoist priest, a fat Taoist priest, a middle-aged nun, and a young scholar. The four of them sat on a high platform and argued.
The Immortal Path is divided into several realms: Small Perfection, Dzogchen, and High Perfection. What kind of state is there? After reaching the Dzogchen realm, how can one be reborn and become an extraordinary and refined immortal?
