Chapter 140: Nine sects and three families, the general trend of the world

…

The wine was half full and the conversation was in full swing.

"Brother Taoist, Master, I have something that I don't understand. I hope you two can answer it?"

"But there's no harm in talking."

"Every time the royal family is mentioned, you two are quite scrupulous. I don't know why?"

After more than half a year of understanding, he has basically understood the background of this world.

Although we have entered the 20th century, it is still the Qing Dynasty that calls the shots.

History took a turn during the Reform Movement of 1898. Yuan Datou did not support Lafayette, but helped the reformers, and joined forces with Zhang Nanpi, Li Hongzhang and other real power factions to establish a true constitutional monarchy.

Now Yuan Datou is the Prime Minister of the "We Qing Dynasty".

When he first learned all this, his jaw almost dropped.

I don’t know who kicked the wheel of history, and the bend has been too big.

The two looked at each other.

"Are you coming, or am I coming?"

Master Ikkyu made a gesture of invitation.

After Taoist Priest Simu gave a look that said, "You're quite sensible," he coughed and organized his words.

"In today's cultivation world, the Golden Pill is respected. The sect with the Golden Pill ancestor sitting in charge is called the 'Shangmen' by the cultivation world; the clan with the Golden Pill ancestor sitting in charge is called the 'big clan'."

"Today, in the world of spiritual practice, there are a total of nine great sects and four Taoist sects, namely Maoshan, Longhushan, Louguan Tao and Quanzhen Tao."

"Buddhism has three branches: Wenshu Monastery in Mount Wutai, Fuhu Temple in Mount Emei, and Nanhua Temple where this smelly monk lives."

"There are two demon ways, the Changbai Mountain Demon Alliance outside the Pass, and the 'Red Lotus Temple' in West Kunlun."

Xu Rui interrupted: "Brother Taoist, don't the Red Lantern Club also have Jin Dan in charge? They don't count as visits?"

There was a trace of contempt on Si Mu's face.

"They don't deserve it yet."

Ikkyu took over the conversation.

"The so-called sects are all sects with endless inheritance and hundreds of years of foundation. Although the Red Lantern Society also has a golden elixir monk such as the Red Lantern Master, the foundation is too shallow and it can only be regarded as a 'scattered stream'."

"Dispersion?"

"He's just a casual cultivator. This old monk is used to showing off."

After organizing his words, he continued.

"Golden elixir monks are the top masters in the current practice world. Every time they appear, a large number of foundation-building monks will seek refuge. The Red Lantern Society, including the 'White Lotus Sect' in the north, and the 'Little Penglai' overseas, are all like this.

"

Xu Rui nodded clearly.

This spiritual world of practice is broader than he imagined.

"Where's the rich family?" Xu Rui asked next.

"There are three great families."

"The Guan family in western Guizhou are famous for their magical fighting skills along with me, Maoshan."

"The Zhang family in Beihu has inherited it for thousands of years. The Dunjia Heavenly Book is unparalleled in its mysteries, and the formation method is unparalleled in the world of cultivation."

"Finally, there is the Aisin Gioro royal family, which has ruled the world for more than two hundred years. The royal family has searched for countless treasures, and naturally it has also supported the powerful golden elixir."

"Didn't it say that the Human Emperor cannot practice?" Xu Rui asked curiously.

"Of course the Human Emperor cannot practice cultivation, but that does not mean that other members of the royal family cannot practice cultivation."

"So the reason why the royal family did not lose their throne is because of this?"

"That's right. If it weren't for the royal family's golden elixir ancestor, the Qing Dynasty would have been overthrown long ago."

Xu Rui nodded clearly.

When he first came here and noticed that the spiritual energy here was richer, he knew that there were definitely more powerful people here than in the 'Ghost Blowing Lantern World'.

But I didn't expect so much.

"It seems that the practice world here is far more complicated than imagined."

However, he was not afraid, but became looking forward to it.

More strong people represent a higher upper limit. With hard work and the help of golden fingers, he may also achieve the golden elixir.

"The strength of the royal family is so profound. If I kill the royal zombie, won't I cause trouble for the two fellow Taoists?"

"Haha, fellow Taoist, there is no need to worry. The Aixinjueluo family has the throne, but has lost its power and has begun to decline. Even they dare not provoke me, Maoshan family. On the contrary, fellow Taoist, the royal family is notorious for retribution.

, be careful they will send people to trouble you."

His eyes and face looked worried.

"I am alone and have no fixed place to live. If they want to cause trouble for me, they have to find me first."

"Amitabha, if Taoist friend Xu is in trouble, you can come here and the poor monk will definitely help you."

"That's right. If those royal hawks and dogs come to visit us, fellow Taoist disciples can come here. Together we can beat them to pieces."

"Thank you two fellow Taoists. If we are in crisis, Xu will definitely come to us for help."

He is telling the truth. When his life is almost gone, saving face means nothing.

The three of them communicated with each other until late at night before they dispersed.

Early the next morning, after a simple breakfast, Xu Rui packed up and walked out of the room.

Unexpectedly, Taoist priest Simu also packed his luggage and looked like he was about to leave for a long distance.

"Brother Dao, what are you...?"

He took it from Jia Le and bowed.

"Hey, after so many days of delay, it's time to send back the big brother we invited back last time for burial."

Xu Rui suddenly realized.

"Jia Le, why don't you move the body out quickly?"

"Yes, Master."

Jia Le left in a hurry.

"Fellow Taoist, how about we go all the way? I just happen to take you somewhere."

He winked with his eyes and looked like, "You're right to follow me."

But he succeeded in arousing Xu Rui's curiosity.

"Okay, I don't have any specific place to go anyway."

Jiale drove the body out, and the master over there also took Qingqing out to see him off.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, come and visit more often when you have time in the future. The poor monk will sweep the bed to wait for you."

"must."

After finishing his words, Master Ikkyu looked around.

The latter turned around proudly.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, it's time for us to leave."

"Master, farewell."

"Goodbye, let's go."

After cupping his fists and giving a salute, he turned around and walked away with the ringing of the four-eyed Taoist priest.

Out of the valley.

The tiger named "General Zuo" rushed out of the mountain.

For more than half a year, Xu Rui has been using magic power to cut off his hair and cleanse his marrow, which has also made this tiger, which was already a monster, increase in strength.

The body is huge, not counting the tail, it is over one foot.

The thick limbs are comparable to adult thighs.

Even if Xu Rui rides up, General Zuo can still walk as fast as flying.

This makes everyone walking down the field envious.

However, ordinary animals simply cannot withstand the invasion of corpse energy.

Moreover, he drove away the corpses to accumulate negative virtues for himself. Riding an ox and horse would reduce his merits a lot, and it was really not worth the gain.
