Chapter 211 The Four Great Families in Western Xinjiang
As the leader of a sect, Tianlang controls the Tuluo sect, so he is naturally concerned about this kind of conquest war among monks.
Long before coming to Xijiang, Tianlang had heard that Xijiang had various cultivation systems, and as a result, many powerful forces had developed.
Among these forces, there are various types of monks. When fighting, through the combination of different monks, powerful combat power can be exerted!
Before this, Sirius had only heard all this and did not fully believe it. But witnessing the scene just now made Sirius deeply realize the powerful power that different monks can achieve when they cooperate with each other!
Each cultivation system has its own characteristics and focuses on different things. While it has its own unique advantages, it also has its own shortcomings.
Sirius has always been a war between cultivators. Similar cultivators fight against each other. This advantage and shortcoming is not very obvious.
But if compared with other monks, these advantages and shortcomings will be extremely obvious.
These advantages and disadvantages are caused by their different training systems and cannot be made up for through tactical arrangements.
Sirius believed that if he was the one standing opposite the red-armored man and could only rely on a group of cultivators to counter the opponent's combined army, he might do better and be able to persist for a while, but the final outcome would not change.
, a simple cultivator cannot resist the combined attacks of multiple cultivators!
Various monks cooperate with each other, complement each other's advantages, and protect each other's shortcomings. It is not just a simple superposition of numbers. If dispatched properly, they can produce powerful combat power!
Thinking of this, Sirius' eyes gradually brightened, his fists were clenched, and there was even a touch of heat in his eyes.
At this time, in the void in front of the three people, a picture was suspended in mid-air. It was the picture that Sirius detected with his spiritual consciousness and mapped it into the mid-air, so that the other two people could also see the scene in the distance.
Looking at the red-armored middle-aged man standing on the back of the fire bird in the picture, Hei Lie's eyes flashed with light, his brows furrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "It's the Sikong family. Is the Sikong family going to expand outwards again?!"
"Sikong family?" Sirius raised his eyebrows when he heard this, looked sideways, and couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, these monks are all members of the Sikong family." Hei Lie stared closely at the red-armored man in the picture, his face solemn and filled with deep fear, and he spoke in a deep voice:
"The Sikong family is one of the four major families in Western Xinjiang. At first, it was just a moderately powerful cultivating family. But hundreds of years ago, the Situ family began to disperse a large number of clan members outwards to learn various cultivation systems.
From then on, the Situ family began to rise to prominence. With the advantage of having various monks, they continued to annex surrounding forces, grew rapidly, and developed for a hundred years. Finally, they became one of the four major families in Western Xinjiang, shocking Western Xinjiang!
"
Sirius nodded slowly, with a thoughtful look on his face, and spoke again: "What about the other three families? Are they all like the Situ family, with all kinds of monks?"
"Yes, the four major families of Situ, Gongsun, Li, and Huang are all like this. With the close cooperation of various monks, they have controlled powerful combat power."
Hei Lie's eyes flickered and he spoke in a deep voice: "In terms of power in Western Xinjiang, apart from the four powerful clans, these four families are the most powerful, and other sects and ethnic groups are much inferior!"
Sirius nodded slowly, with a flash of light in his eyes, and asked again: "In addition to the four major families, how many other forces in Western Xinjiang have the same development model as them?"
"No more. The only powerful forces in this development model are the four major families." Hei Lie's eyes flashed and he blurted out without any hesitation.
However, after hearing Hei Lie's words, Tianlang's eyes suddenly condensed and he questioned: "No more? How is it possible?!"
The various monks cooperated with each other, and the combat power they could exert was extremely powerful. He didn't believe that no one could discover such an obvious fact.
In this case, there should be many forces that will try this model, but Hei Lie said that except for the four major families, no other forces are developing in this situation. How can Tianlang not be surprised?
Looking at Tianlang's expression, Hei Lie immediately understood what Tianlang was thinking, and explained: "The power that various monks can produce when combined with each other is obvious to all. Of course, many forces are trying.
However, to this day, except for the four major families, all other forces have failed, so to this day, only the four major families can have a coalition of monks in the Western Border."
"They all failed..." Sirius' eyes flashed when he heard this, and he murmured thoughtfully: "How come they all failed? Why..."
Why did all the forces that tried failed, and why did only the four major families succeed?
The four successful examples are all family forces. There must be some inevitability in this, but what is this inevitability? For a moment, even Sirius couldn't figure it out.
Seeing Sirius lowering his head in thought, Hei Lie helplessly spread his hands. Obviously, he only knew about these things, and he didn't understand the reasons.
But just when the two of them were confused, Wu Zhanhun, who had been silent all this time, flashed his eyes and said calmly: "Actually, the reason is very simple. The reason why those forces failed is because they lacked something, which is also very important.
s things."
"What is it?" Hearing Wu Zhanhun's words, Tianlang Hei Lie cast his gaze over, showing concern.
"Cohesion!" Wu Zhanhun swept his gaze from the faces of the two people, turned back to the phantom in the sky, and slowly said: "The forces in the Western Border can be divided into three types.
The first type is those foreign monks. The second type is the major sects derived from various cultivation systems. The third type is the cultivation sects.
Among them, the foreign monks all have their own racial characteristics, and their cultivation direction can basically be said to be destined by nature. Therefore, it is naturally impossible to follow the development direction of the four major families.
As for the sects derived from the major cultivation systems, there is actually no essential difference between the sects and the cultivation sects. It is just because the cultivators are the dominant ones in Tianyuan Continent.
Each sect symbolizes a inheritance, which is continued through generations of disciples, making this inheritance everlasting.
However, if these sects want to follow the model of the four major families, it is almost impossible. This is because a monk has only one chance to choose a cultivation system in his life, and that is when he is young, when he first gets involved in cultivation.
Just imagine, if a sect sends its young disciples to other forces to learn their magical powers, what will be the result?
By the time this disciple completes his studies, I am afraid that his heart has already belonged to the sect where he learned the art. How could he return to the original sect that had given him nothing?
Therefore, sending disciples to outer sects to learn skills is just a fantasy for major sects and will never be put into action, because it is tantamount to sending their own disciples to other people's sects.
In this way, if a sect wants to have the strength of other types of monks, it has no choice but to annex them!
Only by integrating and annexing a sect can it be possible to gain the strength of a monk of that lineage, but which sect is willing to be swallowed up?
If you want to annex the sect, you must beat the annexed sect until it surrenders. In the end, you can only get a broken and intact sect, and your own strength will be greatly reduced.
To achieve this, the sect itself must have extremely strong strength. Since it has such strength, why should it take the risk of annexation?
To put it bluntly, even if there are sects that can achieve their goals through this method, after all, these sects have been forcibly kneaded together. How can there be harmony within the sects?
A sect is divided into several lines, and the monks in each line compete with each other and are dissatisfied with each other, which will inevitably lead to internal fighting and various problems.
If it can't even solve its own internal problems, then this sect, even if it has strong combat power, is just a sick tiger. How can it talk about expanding outwards?
Therefore, if a sect wants to have multiple cultivation systems, it may seem simple, but in fact, it is extremely difficult.
What's more, each sect has unique feelings about its own inheritance. Subconsciously, it will want to maintain orthodoxy, let alone try such a difficult model.
However, compared with the sect's power, the family's power is completely different. Family members are closely connected by blood ties. A family has a powerful blood cohesion!
They can safely send their children to various major sects to practice different cultivation systems. When the clan needs them, those children will naturally respond. Because their roots are there!
In families, there are often situations where biological brothers have completely different cultivation directions, but with the blood and family relationship maintained, they don't have to worry about monks from different lines not getting along with each other.
Therefore, the strong cohesion maintained by blood has become a family's greatest advantage. Only they are the most suitable for this development model.
This is also the fundamental reason why only the four major families can rely on this model to grow!"
"That's it." After listening to Wu Zhanhun's narration, Tianlang suddenly realized and understood the reason. The reason is very simple, but the connotation is very profound.
It seems that it is not as simple as imagined to make the Tuluo Sect, like the four major families, have monks from all branches.
With this thought in mind, Sirius slowly raised his head and took a deep look at the Situ tribesmen in the phantom in front of him, who belonged to different groups but were cooperating harmoniously, with a hint of fiery color in his eyes.
With a flick of his hand, Sirius put away the illusion in front of him, took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and his eyes returned to depth and concentration!
What I saw just now was just an interlude. These things should be thought about later. What I have to do now is to kill the Riding Temple and rescue Chengyi and Xiaolong!
With a flash of light in his eyes, Sirius threw away all his thoughts, no longer hesitated, stretched out his hand to seal the secret, and the black ship under his feet suddenly buzzed, turned into a black electric light again, and galloped out!
