Chapter 593 Return to the Mountain Gate
After hearing this, Shu Yunyun showed no joy but a worried look. She said, "I am just a wanderer now. Why do you want to help me?"
Those who practice Taoism do not believe in dedication without reason.
Wu Yi smiled and said, "If I say that I simply want to help you, I guess you will not believe it. Then I tell you that the Ping family belongs to the lineage of the aristocratic family. Although I am not a master-disciple lineage, I do not want them to sit firmly in the country. Are you satisfied with this explanation?"
Shu Yunyun nodded slightly. She felt that it was not that simple. But at a deeper level, she was afraid that she was not qualified to hear it. So why bother herself? A smart person should know when to keep silent.
Not long after, Wu Yi had already written the letter to Zhi Tianxuan. The content of the letter was nothing more than that the visitor had an old friend relationship with him and hoped to take care of him. Finally, it was a greeting.
It had been a long time since he parted with Zhi Tianxuan. Wu Yi thought that he would return to the sect first and go to the West to meet his master after everything was done.
The letter was written in Xuanwen, and the formation was arranged in a way that was both obscure and obvious. Those who were not familiar with these two ways would not be able to see anything clearly even if they got the letter, just like reading a heavenly book. Therefore, Wu Yi did not take any other precautions and handed the item to the aunt and nephew.
Although Wu Yi did not know what kind of mysterious experience Zhi Tianxuan had, from what he had seen so far, what he knew was probably not even the tip of the iceberg. Zhi Tianxuan might not take the Ping family, which others feared, seriously.
After getting the letter, Shu Yunyun took Shu Zhantian away. Seeing the two people leaving, Wu Yi sighed. The cultivation world is really a place where everything is rewarded. Sometimes, simple help becomes ulterior motives in the eyes of others.
If you have to say how this matter helped Wu Yi, it was just to complete the cause and effect of the past. However, this matter was not a concern and did not affect the heart of Tao, so there was no need to intervene. It was really helpless to work hard and still be suspected by others.
Wu Yi glanced at the direction of the capital of Dayu Kingdom. After waiting for a long time, no one from the Ping clan came. It seems that the Ping clan did not send out Yuanying Zhenren in this palace coup. I am afraid they would not have thought that such a "small matter" would actually have Wu Yi.
"It's time to go back to the world that originally belonged to me." Shaking his head, Wu Yi whispered. The world is prosperous, but it is not a place to stay for a long time. Instead, he felt alienated. After playing for a while, he had to go back.
Not long after, a neon light broke through the sky. Mortals who happened to see this scene would only think that they were blind and saw it wrong.
From the border of Dayu Kingdom to the north, Wu Yi, who is now a Yuanying Zhenren, exerted his full strength, the five qi was auspicious, the wind was whistling, and the Gangsha caressed the air, making bursts of explosions. It was because he was in the extreme sky, otherwise, I don’t know how many birds would be shocked to death.
After three days, we can see the towering mountains ahead, which are connected to the clouds and the sun. This is the largest mountain range in the Cangmang Realm - the Yulong Mountain Range.
It is not an exaggeration to say that this mountain range is the dragon vein of the Cangmang Realm. Half of the spiritual energy in the world gathers here, and most of the Yulong Mountain Range is occupied by the Yiqi Gate, which stands at the main peak.
Further ahead, there is a formation ban. When mortals arrive here, they will only turn a corner and return the original way. Similarly, if the monsters in the mountains want to escape to the mortal world, it is not an easy thing.
However, there is no perfect formation in this world. It is normal to have loopholes. Forcibly pursuing perfection will only lead to more hidden dangers. Sometimes, when the formation is running, the strange power will be deliberately leaked in order to make the formation run smoothly, sacrificing parts to improve the overall situation.
If there are monsters leaving the Yulong Mountain Range, they are mostly taking advantage of this opportunity. At that time, there will be disciples who will take over the list and go to subdue monsters and demons for experience.
Because the formation is not perfect, monsters still escape, so there are few creatures and few people in the remaining areas of the Yulong Mountains.
Approaching the formation, a bright light flashed on Wu Yi's body, and fell on the formation. It was a symbol of a Yiqi Sect disciple. The formation, which was as solid as a high wall to others, allowed Wu Yi to enter.
This formation is not only for Yiqi Sect disciples to enter, but also for disciples of other sects, because the resources are much richer than those in other places. You can see that many casual cultivators catch monsters and practice here.
Yiqi Sect sacrificed some resources and opened up the mountains and forests, but it can also promote some outstanding people from these casual cultivators to enrich the sect. At the same time, it also makes itself generous. It is too ugly to eat alone. At least leave a sip of soup for the casual cultivators.
The edge of the formation is not even the core, not to mention the periphery. Wu Yi glanced down and saw that there were not many foundation-building cultivators. The Taoists who practiced here still wanted to succeed in cultivation and enter the world to enjoy wealth and glory. Immortality and becoming an immortal are still too extravagant for them, and are out of reach.
Going deeper from the remaining veins, there are eight cities under the Yiqi Gate, where immortals and mortals are mixed, and they are based on the positions of the Eight Trigrams. It is said that the position of the city will change with different time. There are innate and acquired Eight Trigrams, ancient, medieval and recent Eight Trigrams. People in the city cannot sense it, but if an outsider breaks in, he will get lost in it.
The arrangement of these eight cities can be regarded as the first line of defense of the Yiqi Gate.
Each of the eight cities has a population of one million. The people living in them, counting back, are basically the disciples of the Yiqi Gate.
If one person cultivates Taoism, his relatives will ascend to heaven. However, if the cultivator dies halfway, his relatives will inevitably fall from the sky. They have seen the charm of the immortal way and are unwilling to return to the world, so they settle down outside the gate of Yiqimen Mountain. Over time, eight major cities are formed.
Seeing this situation, Yiqimen simply recognizes the status of the eight major cities, and sends disciples to govern and set up Taoist temples to recruit disciples.
These families with a tradition of cultivation are more likely to produce outstanding figures than to find a needle in a haystack in the secular world. Not to mention the wealthy families with a long history, most of those prominent families stand out in the selection of the eight major cities and are promoted step by step.
Because the eight major cities are close to the gate of Yiqimen Mountain, when disciples are promoted, they occupy most of the quotas and are called the main courtyard. In contrast, disciples from the human dynasty are called the side courtyard. An invisible discrimination chain was created in this way, and Wu Yi suffered greatly from it at the beginning.
There are millions of people in the eight major cities, and although half of them are monks, only one in ten thousand can make a name for themselves. It is just like an army of thousands crossing a single-plank bridge. This is the foundation of the aristocratic families, and the master-disciple lineage does not have a strong say here.
