Chapter 399 Return of the King
For monks who have a longer lifespan than ordinary people, a long time can easily make them forget something. The war between gods and demons has ended less than a hundred years ago, and many young monks have completely forgotten this war.
Forgetting the battlefield naturally means forgetting the sects and monks who paid the price for this war. The former gourd view, as it always inherited the strategy of low-key hidden world practice, is no longer as highly praised as before.
Even with the rise of other sects and the emergence of the strong, more and more people feel that the Hulu Temple, which has lost the first person in practice, is not worthy of continuing to have the reputation of the "first person in practice" as rumored now.
But no one expected that in the face of the stalemate of the border, Hulu Temple sent only eighteen elite disciples to hunt down the evil cultivators who invaded the border thousands of miles away. Such strength really shocked all parties.
Seeing that the Hulu Temple seemed to be about to take off again, many sects that ignored border conflicts were finally unable to sit still. While promoting Hulu Temple to deceive the world and steal the reputation, they also sent masters to the border to demonstrate the strength of the sect.
Faced with the rumors released by these sects, Hu Shoudao, as the master of the sect, said extremely angrily: "Hmph, these sects are really hateful. If they were not fathers in the early years, their sects would probably have no longer existed!"
Compared to his anger, Lin Yunxuan, as the Supreme Elder, smiled and said, "As a practitioner of Taoism, you must learn to take everything lightly. How can a few rumors be distorted by right and wrong? What do a bunch of clowns pay attention to them?"
"Okay! Then let it go for this matter?"
"Don't worry, don't look at their joy now, I'm afraid of suffering. While we are making progress, the evil demons and evil ways abroad are not idle either. Don't you think that those evil cultivators who have committed the realm in the past have a bit of cannon fodder?"
"you mean?"
"Masters always appear in the end, right? Since those sects feel that they have the ability to become the strongest sects in the world of cultivation, let them prove that they are worthy of this honor, otherwise they can only ask for trouble."
Hearing this, Hu Shoudao thought for a while and said, "That's right! A group of sects with only powerful people in the Cave Void Realm dares to claim to be the strongest sect, and I don't know who gave them the face."
"Are you going to slap me, my senior brother in the face? You know, I am also a cultivator in the Cave Void Realm!"
"Senior Brother, you know that I don't mean this. Besides, with your current cultivation level, even if you face the early stage of the Mahayana realm, it's okay? How many people are there in the Mahayana realm powerhouses in the cultivation world now?"
Although nearly a hundred years have passed since the battle between gods and demons, there are not many people who have truly survived the powerful people above the Dongxu Realm who participated in the battle earlier. The only surviving Mahayana Realm powerhouse, the Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect, has also been in seclusion for many years of healing.
Originally, many sects were also curious about whether the Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect was born or died, but the Sword Sect, like Hulu Temple, lived in seclusion in Shushan and did not contact the outside world at all. If you want to know the situation of this Supreme Elder, perhaps only the senior management of the Sword Sect knows.
Although the Baicao Sect, who had been in the Hulu Temple earlier, paid a heavy price in the battle between gods and demons, all the elites who survived their sect lived in seclusion in Shennong Villa to practice. The spiritual energy there was undoubtedly more intense than the Baicao Sect.
The transfer of Shennong Villa to Baicao Sect is also considered to repay the cause and effect that he had owed in the past. After all, when Hu Xuanzong found this medicine garden, it was also opened by the elder of the Medicine Sect. The Baicao Sect is the inheritance of the Medicine Sect!
In short, the sects that survived the war between gods and demons, without exception, chose to practice hidden worlds. Only some rising stars who hope to increase their voice and obtain more cultivation resources will jump up and down at this moment.
As Lin Yunxuan predicted, after being chased by the Eighteen Taoists of Huluguan, the evil cultivators from abroad fled back to their sphere of influence in a panic, their organization soon sent more powerful people to Dongtu.
Several major sects that were promoting the victory of this border defense battle soon discovered that the life cards of the elite disciples of the sect were constantly bursting. For a moment, these sects were completely panicked, and the strong men came out of seclusion and rushed to the front line.
When these sects began to do their best to deal with the invasion of foreign evil cultivators, the major sects sent to the border also realized that this war for the voice rights of the main world might also break out.
What surprised and shocked many powerful people in the sect was that the strength of evil cultivators from abroad should not be underestimated. Take the most powerful blood clan among them as a prince-level blood clan powerhouse, which is comparable to a cultivator in the Cave Void Realm.
The talented skill of the blood clan is that it can suck blood and be reborn if the blood core is not broken. Many monks who have just come into contact with it find that they have obviously killed the other party. As a result, the other party was quickly reborn. Such a strange situation is really difficult.
After a series of bloody battles, they wanted to replace the emerging sects such as Hulu Temple and Sword Sect. Then they realized how much it would cost to win this honor. If they continue to fight, they will definitely fall completely.
In desperation, several sects immediately joined forces and found that the monks summoned orders, hoping that each sect would send strong people to the border to assist in the war. Such self-smuggling behavior also made some hidden sects sneer.
At this moment, the Sword Sect sent several elders to the border to participate in the war. Several elders joined forces and even killed a prince of the blood clan. Such strength really shocked the strength of evil cultivators abroad.
While temporarily stopping the troops and quit the battle, they began to ask for reinforcements from the rear. For these evil cultivators, they found that after devouring the flesh and blood of the East Earth cultivators, they could actually improve their strength. This discovery naturally made countless evil cultivators crazy.
If it was just a local war at the beginning, then as the evil cultivators and demon cultivators began to join forces, a full-scale war began. Unless the Eastern monks are willing to open up the border, the war must be decided.
For many young monks, it was not until this moment that they understood the cruelty of war and why those who survived the war of gods and demons avoided talking about it. The reason is that this kind of war is like a nightmare!
When the war is in a stalemate again and every day when monks die, the monks in the East who participate in the war are extremely hopeful of a strong man. It is at this time that the gourd temple actually announces the world and ends the secret cultivation and returns to the world of practice.
The first batch of 500 cultivators sent, the lowest cultivation level was the Out-of-body realm. What shocked the major sects the most was the three cultivators from the Cave Void Realm. One of them was the legendary death of the Supreme Elder Lin Yunxuan.
At the Hulu Temple disciples rushed to the battlefield, the Hulu Temple disciples led by Lin Yunxuan once again achieved amazing results. There were as many as three princes under Lin Yunxuan's sword. Such a record was enough to make other sects ashamed.
Many old monks who know the Battle of Gods and Demons couldn't help but sigh: "This is really a master and a disciple!"
"Who said no! Just Master Hu's son is now the master of Yiguan and has the cultivation level of the Cave Void Realm!"
But these monks didn't know at all. Except for Lin Yunxuan and his wife, both the Dongxu realm cultivators, Hu Shoudao and his son also had the Dongxu realm cultivation. Except Hu Shoudao is in the early stage, Su Luoyan and Qin Huimin are in the middle stage of the Dongxu realm.
What shocked all parties the most was that Liu Yue, who participated in the battle between gods and demons, was a special offering, now has become the deacon of Hulu Temple. The three cultivators in the Cave Void Realm led this time have her existence.
What unexpectedly surprised all parties was that after the birth of Hulu Temple was announced, the Sword Sect and Baicao Sect that had participated in the battle between gods and demons were announced one after another, and the sect elites were sent to participate in the war. This shows how famous Hulu Temple is.
Faced with the increasing casualties, the evil cultivators from abroad began to feel a little unable to sit still. No matter how good the Dongdi is, they must have their lives to enjoy it. The blood clan who plays the core roles will undoubtedly not be able to bear such a huge loss.
Even in the end, the surviving princes had to launch a summoning technique and request the blood clan ancestor to take action to solve the problem of Lin Yunxuan and others who made them difficult. When the blood clan always arrived, Lin Yunxuan and others became nervous instantly.
"No! This guy should be at the Mahayana realm of cultivation, and I am afraid I can't deal with it!"
"Ah! Where is the Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect? Why didn't he take action yet?"
"I heard that the Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect had not healed before, and he is still in seclusion and healing his wounds!"
"Then let's do it? Without a powerful Mahayana realm, who can deal with this guy?"
At this moment, the ancestor of the blood clan who arrived above the battlefield looked at the nervous Dongtu cultivator below with a look of looking at the ant. Finally, he set his eyes on Lin Yunxuan and others who were preparing to fight with the Three Talent Formation.
He said with interest: "You three are the top experts of Hulu Temple? Then, then, are you the first disciple of Hu Xuanzong? And you are his son? What about this lady? Is his wife?"
The clear pronunciation of Dongtu script shocked all Dongtu monks, even Lin Yunxuan said unexpectedly: "Senior knows my master? Is he going to make up his mind to start a full war with my Dongtu?"
"Haha, interesting! It's so interesting! I came here just to fulfill my promise and make your Dongtu completely ruined!"
As soon as these words were said, all the monks of the East Earth were chilling all over. Just as the blood clan ancestor was about to take action, a voice suddenly came from the air and said, "Demon Lord, long time no see! I really didn't expect that you will transform into this ghostly appearance now?"
With the identity of the ancestor of the blood clan, all the monks who participated in the battle between gods and demons trembled all over and said, "What? He is the Demon Lord of the battle between gods and demons? How is this possible? Wasn't he destroyed?"
What everyone did not expect was that the ancestor of the blood clan who heard the sound was stunned for a while: "No, it's impossible! How could you still be alive? Under such a heavenly tribulation, you can't survive at all!"
As the words fell, the ancestor of the blood clan was about to escape. As a result, a sword light flashed, and the ancestor of the blood clan was forced to stop. A fairy sword that made the monks involved in the battle between gods and demons familiar, but was excited about the blood, reappeared again on earth.
Looking at the man who suddenly appeared from the air, the surviving monks immediately bent down and saluted, saying respectfully and excitedly: "Greetings to Master Hu!"
The young monk who heard this looked at the young monk with a comfortable face in the air and said for a long time: "This is really the return of the king!"
Compared with the previous sects that proclaimed themselves as leaders of the world of cultivation, the monk who reappeared in the world of cultivation is the recognized legend and king in the world of cultivation. Although he doesn't know how he survived, his appearance made all the monks in the East excited.
What an honor to be lucky enough to fight side by side with such a legendary king!
