Chapter 220: Joining the WTO and Competing with the Demons
Chapter 220: Entering the world and competing with good and evil
Of course, this was nothing. After leaving the drugstore, Lin Xuan immediately bought a jade tube from another store in Fangshi.
In the jade tube, there are introductions to the major sects and families in Youzhou, and there are even information about some famous casual cultivators.
I found the column of Tianmu Sect and read the contents in it carefully.
Then after Lin Xuan left Fangshi, he immediately flew to Tianmu Mountain without saying a word.
At this time, he was looking at the small town at the foot of the mountain, a trace of hesitation flashed across his face, he thought for a moment, and walked over.
Although there is no flying, the speed of using the wind control technique is still ridiculously fast.
Arriving at the outskirts of the town, Lin Xuan took out a Hidden Spirit Pill and drank it. His spiritual energy gathered around him. His cultivation seemed to be only around the middle stage of agility, and then he walked into the town.
Generally speaking, although people who practice Taoism have not yet become immortals, they can be said to be two different worlds from the secular world. However, the small town in front of them subverts this theory.
The town is not that big, with a population of only a few thousand, but apart from 90% of the people, the other 10% are actually cultivators.
And what's even more surprising is that even when they see all kinds of mysterious Taoist techniques, there is no look of surprise on the faces of those mortals, as if they are used to it.
This is obviously incomprehensible in other places, but here, everything seems so natural, as if it should be so.
Although he had already read the introduction in the jade tube, Lin Xuan still had a gleam of surprise in his eyes.
Different from other cultivation sects that are aloof and treat ordinary people like ants, the practice of this Tianmu sect emphasizes entering into the world, washing the dust of the soul in the rolling world of mortals, thereby removing demonic obstacles and improving the state of cultivation.
Therefore, the disciples of this sect did not reject ordinary people at all, but actively integrated into them, and even helped them solve some problems.
Although the original intention was for my own practice, the result was that it also helped the world.
At first, mortals were certainly surprised by these living god-like existences, and even stayed away from them. However, as time went by and thousands of years of subtle influence passed over them, they became accustomed to them.
There are even some mortals, either because of the favors received from the "immortals" or for other reasons, who even managed to raise their families to live at the foot of Tianmu Mountain.
At first, there were only three or five households, and then it slowly turned into a small village. Finally, it reached the size of a small town today.
The Tianmu Sect does not have any objections to this move by mortals. Anyway, there is a large array of protective sects protecting the mountain gate, let alone ordinary mortals. Even immortal cultivators with evil intentions cannot easily enter the mountain gate.
What's more, in the past, only monks who had successfully built the foundation could go out to practice and get rid of their inner demons.
Now there is such a small town at the foot of the mountain, and even disciples in the spiritual stage can integrate into it and accept the test of worldly temptations.
The town was not large, so Lin Xuan only spent an hour walking around several streets.
Then I chose an inconspicuous inn at the end of the town and walked in.
Lin Xuan did not intend to enter Tianmu Mountain now, because according to the records in the jade tube, although the sect was good to ordinary mortals, it had a different face towards fellow practitioners who were thousands of miles away.
The reason why they are closed is not only because they live alone, but also because they are unwilling to interact with other monks except for some small sects and families nearby. To put it simply, they are xenophobic.
There is always an inexplicable hostility towards monks who come from afar, whether they are on the right path or the devil path.
This sect is so stubborn that it can even be said to be astonishing.
For example, in Youzhou, Lingyao Mountain is a sect that can conquer both good and evil spirits, but it is only useless in Tianmu Mountain.
This sect, in order to have less contact with outsiders, even spent a huge amount of financial and material resources to train two alchemists. Although their skills cannot be compared with those of the Spiritual Medicine Mountain, they can barely meet the needs of the sect.
When he saw this, Lin Xuan couldn't laugh or cry. His original idea of using his identity as the young master of the Spiritual Medicine Mountain to pay a visit to the sect came to nothing.
What makes Lin Xuan even more speechless is that Tianmu Mountain has recently implemented stricter inspections and controls on foreign monks.
The reason behind this is related to the current situation in Youzhou.
In the past ten years, although the world of cultivation has remained calm on the surface, privately, there has been a turbulent undercurrent.
Speaking of which, it was the Demon King Tiansha who was responsible for the trouble.
Although in the end, the Tianchen Pill fell apart in one fell swoop, and neither the righteous path nor the demonic path was obtained.
However, the action of the Demon King made the three giants sleepless. Not only did this demon reach the middle stage of Nascent Soul, but he also possessed the heaven-defying magical power of the Second Yuan Shen.
As for the three great elders, they are only in the early stages of Nascent Soul.
Even if they join forces, they will only form a constraining and balanced situation with the Demon Lord.
The two sides have equal strength. On the surface, they care about each other and are conducive to peace. But don't forget that for thousands of years, the power of the righteous path has been far superior to the evil path.
The resources they occupy are naturally several times greater.
Nowadays, the power of the demonic path has greatly increased, and naturally they are not willing to accept this situation, and have put forward new requirements for spiritual veins and crystal mines.
Not to mention, the Demon Lord is an extremely ambitious guy.
Who is willing to spit out the fat in their mouth easily? The three righteous giants are not vegetarians. They have been the rulers of Youzhou for thousands of years and are willing to give up their vested interests.
The Nascent Soul stage bosses from both sides have met several times in private, negotiated, threatened, and demonstrated their strength. In short, the war of words has turned upside down.
But even after talking about it, we still end up wrangling.
How can it be so easy for good and evil to reach an agreement?
It's just that the two sides were not prepared first, and secondly they did have concerns about each other, so they could start. However, the calm on the surface could not hide the aura of the storm coming, and the whole Youzhou was like a string.
