At this time, Zhang Yu discovered that hidden in the mysterious jade was a seal of the third chapter. It was no wonder that he could not see it at the time.
He looked at it carefully and confirmed that the seal was called "Word Seal". After reading it, cultivators can use words to control their mental power, subdue opponents, and exert various magical abilities.
On the surface, this seal does not look much different from ordinary seals, but he always feels that it is not that simple. Otherwise, predecessors would not have to hide it in mysterious jade for future generations to discover, especially if it requires old repairs.
It can only be sensed by matching the breathing method, which excludes most people.
Moreover, the difference between this seal and the seals he had come into contact with before was that there was no previous thoughts on it, it was completely blank.
For seals, the ideas of predecessors are very important, because it means that the experience of predecessors can be used by later generations to quickly master the tricks. Without the guidance of predecessors, practitioners need to use their own
Understand and explore the method of operation.
It's just that he currently lacks the seal of the third chapter of the book that can be used in battle, so he doesn't have the right to be picky. Since he saw it, he might as well use it first.
He immediately called out the Dao Xuan Zhang, focused his mind on it, and began to read the seal.
However, he soon discovered that this time, more divine energy was used for reading, and the amount of energy consumed was enough to read three or four seals.
But in this way, he was more sure that this seal was not simple. Now that he had read it, he could slowly explore the mystery during his time in the dense forest.
After resting here for a while, he and Captain Mo set off again, heading towards the direction of the dense forest.
Once in the dense forest, he can try to catch some indigenous or spiritual creatures, figure out the direction of Anshan, and walk towards it, and he can always get out.
As for the dangers he may encounter on the road, he might have tried to avoid them in the past, but with what he can do now, he doesn't need to worry too much.
Near the Honghe Pass, a steady stream of supplies was being transported from the rear, along with civilians recruited by the Protectorate. The destroyed fortresses were being rebuilt, and damaged weapons were being replaced and repaired.
Dou Chang, Qi Wu, Fan Lan and others are still stationed here.
Since the departure of the Shenwei Army, there are not many people with extraordinary power here in the pass. Moreover, although the Mad God died, the blood-feathered warriors and natives have not completely retreated, and are still lingering in the dense forest on the other side of the Hong River.
It seems like someone is still restraining them.
In addition, there was a huge white light flashing in the sky a few days ago, and something unusual must have happened in the dense forest. Under such circumstances, they became even more afraid to leave.
At this moment, in the martial arts hall inside the fortress, they were giving instructions to the newly arrived young Xuanxiu cultivators. Suddenly, a panting soldier rushed in, with a look of horror on his face, saying: "Several Xuanxiu cultivators, on the other side, on the other side..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a horn sound outside. Dou Chang and others knew something was wrong, so they immediately came out of the inner hall and came to the platform. Looking around, they saw huge spiders coming from the depths of the dense forest on the other side of the Hong River.
They crawled out, and with the appearance of these things, the natives, priests and blood-feather warriors who had not retreated before also came out one after another.
But when they saw the figures sitting on the spiders, their breaths stopped for a moment. They turned out to be dozens of indigenous gods exuding divine light, and two of them turned out to be divine captains.
The two military commanders of the army are: Qi Dian, the superior military commander, and Hejiang, the left military commander!
Not only that, further away, two figures as big as hills appeared in the dense forest. They could clearly feel the abundant divine power even while standing in the fortress.
These are two gods that are more powerful than the crazy gods back then!
Dou Chang spoke solemnly: "It seems that the Shenwei Army has colluded with the Ability God. Junior Brother Qi, please send a message immediately. The matter is urgent and ask Senior Brother Xiang and the Protectorate to send manpower over as soon as possible. The sooner the better!"
Qi Wu immediately said: "Senior brother, I'll go right away."
In Ruiguang City, Chen Song walked heavily towards the affairs hall. As he walked, no one even glanced at him. It seemed that he had not noticed the existence of such a person at all.
He had just visited the place where the battle was executed. There was nothing left there except a huge pit, and he had also heard that Zhu Que, the commander-in-chief of the Shenwei Army, had returned to the Shenwei Army's station.
In this battle, his teacher obviously lost.
He didn't know which direction the situation would take in the future, but according to Qi Yilin's instructions when he left, he had to stand up and shoulder the responsibility now.
He raised his head and stepped into the office hall.
This is the first time he has returned here since he faked his death.
Xiang Chun was reviewing documents at the moment when he suddenly felt something strange. He stopped writing in his hand and slowly raised his head. He saw Chen Song standing in front of him. His eyes couldn't help but be a little complicated and he sighed: "Junior brother Chen, you...
…”
Chen Song walked to him and sat down in front of him, saying: "Brother, I'm not dead, but..." He showed a hint of sadness, "The teacher passed away..."
Xiang Chun was silent for a while and then said: "I already know." He looked up at Chen Song, "The teacher said before leaving that if he doesn't come back, someone will take over the position of Xuanshou. I think it should be him.
Junior Brother Chen, you are here."
Chen Song nodded and said, "Yes, this is what the teacher told me before leaving."
Xiang Chun looked at him and said, "So, do you know how to get down to Xuan Mansion?"
Chen Song thought for a while, and there was a look of determination in his eyes, and he said: "Without the teacher in charge of the Xuanfu, we may be suppressed for a period of time. We can only try our best to endure it. If it really doesn't work, I will ask Junior Brother Ying for help."
Come back," he showed a sincere look, "Senior brother, we must persist no matter what, until the tide of turmoil subsides, and until the flames of war are reignited. Senior brother, please help me."
Xiang Chun nodded, stood up, walked around the desk, came to Chen Song, put his hand on his shoulder, and said expressionlessly: "Junior Brother Chen, I'm sorry."
Chen Song immediately realized something was wrong, and his inner light burst out, but then, the light was suppressed bit by bit.
Xiang Chun looked at him and said: "It's useless. The area around the affairs hall has been smeared with elixirs. I dug out these elixirs from ancient books. They are not within the range of your heart. When you walked in,
, there is no chance anymore.”
Chen Song sighed: "It turns out that you have already made arrangements, senior brother." He raised his head and said, "Senior brother, what do you want to do?"
Xiang Chun sighed: "I didn't want to do this originally, but I didn't expect the teacher to be so partial. He actually left the position of Xuanshou to you.
It has been more than fifty years. Ever since the teacher went into seclusion, I have always been by his side, responsible for handling internal and external affairs. I can name everyone in Xuanfu.
I was responsible for the reconstruction of all branch offices, I personally arranged all personnel matters, and I helped establish all the rules.
Where were you when I did all this? What did you do?
But when you come back, you will sit on the position of Xuanshou, and I will never agree!"
He looked at Chen Song again and said: "Junior brother Chen, you are too soft-hearted. I know you want to save face for me, but if you come to see me after meeting the other junior brothers directly, I really don't know what to do.
what to do."
He stretched out his hand to pick it up, and a mysterious jade flew out from Chen Song's body. He held it in his hand and said, "I'm glad you brought this thing."
Chen Song calmed down at this time, sat there and said: "Brother Xiang, do you know why the teacher doesn't let you be the Xuanshou?"
Xiang Chun said in a deep voice: "That's because he trusts you more than me. Among all the brothers, you are the only one whose cultivation path is the most similar to his. I know that he has always regarded you as his true successor."
Chen Song shook his head and said: "No, teacher, do you think you don't know what you have done?"
Xiang Chun frowned and said, "What did I do?"
Chen Song raised his head and said slowly: "Junior Brother Lin was not bad at that time, but why was he surrounded by the cultists? The news was sent out but no one came to save him? As a result, an arm was broken, and there was no hope of saving it.
He has practiced Taoism, and he is as talented as his junior brother, but why did he betray Xuanfu later?"
He looked directly into Xiang Chun's eyes and said: "You have too much desire for power. You must try to exclude and eliminate anyone who may threaten your status.
Do you think the teacher doesn’t know what you do? He already knew it. The teacher treats you like his own son and knows that you work hard and achieve great results, so even if he knows you do this, he can’t bear to blame you or punish you.”
He sighed, "I knew you were targeting me later. In order to avoid causing more internal strife, I proposed to fake my death, and the teacher agreed. It just happened that Junior Brother Ying had this bad reputation.
Speaking of Junior Brother Ying, he was originally the one whom the teacher trusted the most. If only he were still here, there wouldn't be so many things that happened later.
I heard that Junior Brother Xu came up with some sort of ‘Xiulin Strategy’ to protect the wizards in the house, but the sad thing is that he didn’t know that the one who needs to be on guard the most is actually not Junior Brother Ying at all, but you!”
Xiang Chun's expression changed slightly for a few moments, and then he said after a while: "You can say whatever you want, I have a clear conscience towards Xuanfu."
Chen Song struggled for a while and urged: "Senior brother, stop, we can no longer fight internally."
"Internal conflict?" Xiang Chun nodded and said: "You are right, there can be no internal conflict. Don't worry, I won't do anything to you, and Xuanfu can't continue like this."
Chen Song was startled and said, "Senior brother, what do you want to do?"
Xiang Chun looked out the window and said in a deep voice: "Xuanfu has maintained the Duhufu for sixty years, but the Duhufu used Xuanfu to fight against the Shenwei Army to maintain balance. Now, it is time for Xuanfu to go its own way."
