Chapter 331 Volume C Decision, Go to War
Not only did he talk about the necessity of supporting Lingyun Sect, but he also talked about the weaknesses and concerns of the other side in this battle. One side was going all out, while the other side was hesitant or even half-hearted. So the result of this battle was obvious.
Encouraged by Zhu Fengbi, Chen Huaisheng became more motivated: "If our Chonghua Sect only wants to use Yanzhou as a temporary foothold and does not intend to take root here for a long time, then it's fine. But if we want to manage Hebei as a place worth taking root, then we must fight this battle and make a name for ourselves. I can't remember which ancient person said that once a person's waist is bent, it is difficult to straighten it again. The general meaning is that once you have been soft and retreated once, it will be difficult to persist and become tough again. Disciple agrees with this!"
Chen Huaisheng's words are thought-provoking. Whether it is Shang Jiuling, Zhu Fengbi or others, they are chewing on this sentence carefully. The more they taste it, the more they feel that it makes sense.
It is not easy to establish a strong and resolute impression, but it is easy to destroy it. A weak retreat is enough to completely destroy the image that was established with great effort.
Everyone knows that it is not the fault of the Chonghua Sect to come to Hebei from Langling, but the weakness and incompetence of the Jiulian Sect.
So after arriving in Hebei, the Chonghua Sect must start with this battle to establish an independent and strong image.
"What about these disciples of the Lingyun Sect..." You Shaoyou hesitated.
"Stay in the mountain gate, but do not allow them to enter for the time being. As a friendly sect, we will take them in and live here temporarily. No one has anything to say. We can also bring the news to the Lingyun Sect. On the one hand, it shows our support attitude. To make it clear, we are not afraid of a fight. On the other hand, it also shows that we have no intention of adding insult to injury, but we want to help in times of trouble..."
This suggestion was also recognized by everyone. It was a safe move.
After solving these two problems, the remaining matter of the attack on the Du family of Bajiaozhai was actually simple in everyone's eyes. Isn't it just a group of wolves?
The Du family's group of fake foundation builders need not be mentioned, but for the Chonghua Sect, that is not a problem.
Chen Huaisheng's point of view won the recognition of the foundation builders and elders. Although everyone debated for a while afterwards, once it was determined, it was implemented vigorously and without dragging its feet.
Lingyun Sect has not yet reached the time for a decisive battle. What needs to be conveyed to Lingyun Sect now is confidence and determination. Zhu Fengbi will go there in person to show his attitude.
On the Du family side of Bajiaozhai, You Shaoyou led people to investigate and see what the situation is.
As for the demon corpses on the Huluji side, it is the simplest and easiest. Wu Tianen led the team and Chen Huaisheng assisted them to investigate together and deal with it according to the situation.
The more you want to stay in the mountain gate and practice peacefully, the more things will come to you, and you can't push them away.
But for Chen Huaisheng, this is also a training.
It's not like he hasn't encountered sneaky things before. Ou Wan'er is still "imprisoned" in his spirit body. His thunder method has been cultivated to the tenth level, so it's a good time to give it a try.
"Huaisheng, have you cultivated the thunder method to the tenth level?" After coming down, Wu Tianen called Chen Huaisheng to his Taoist temple.
Although he didn't think that the demon corpses in Huluji could pose much of a threat, Huluji was in a special situation. It belonged to Bajiaozhai, and it was also close to Baita City and Zhaigudao. Moreover, Baita City and Fengyi Sect had asked for help. It was hard to say what kind of situation it would be at that time. As for the demon corpse, it was still secondary.
"Well, the tenth level is no problem. Now I'm trying to reach the eleventh level." Chen Huaisheng didn't rest for the past two months.
On the one hand, he was guiding the cultivation of several people, and on the other hand, he was practicing thunder method.
It was unrealistic for him to break through in the spiritual realm immediately. He still needed enough time and practice to settle down, but he put all his efforts into the practice of thunder method.
At the beginning, he cut off the tails of almost all the ringed star rays in the battle of Peach Blossom Island. In the past two months, he has basically eaten the meat of ringed star rays in preparation for strengthening his thunder power.
Ringed star rays are typical thunder-type demon insects, and their tails that release lightning are also rich in thunder-type spiritual power.
Although practicing thunder magic is mainly based on oneself, consuming too much spiritual power is also the biggest problem. Now with the supplement of ringed star rays, it has made up for the problem that troubled Chen Huaisheng before to a certain extent.
"Your practice speed has far exceeded my expectations." Wu Tianen's words were both relieved and envious.
His spiritual consciousness had long observed his spiritual roots, which were really ordinary, even mediocre, that is, his Taoist bones were very strong, but how could he make such progress in practice, and his progress speed was beyond imagination.
He thought he knew Chen Huaisheng best. After all, he was the one who introduced him to the door, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was his mentor, but such progress was beyond the reach of even himself as a teacher.
He even suspected that maybe in ten years, the other party would catch up with him.
This was also the reason why he was determined to retreat and break through the second level of foundation building. Otherwise, it would be hard to accept that young people like Wang Yao, Xu Tianfeng and Chen Huaisheng would catch up.
"Master, the way of thunder is smooth. As long as there is enough spiritual power and practice time, it will basically come naturally."
After practicing thunder for so long, Chen Huaisheng has made great achievements in thunder. The biggest problem of practicing thunder is that it consumes too much spiritual power and energy, so that the spirit body cannot support it.
The cauldron of his Tao body has already taken shape, and the Tao bones are dense and thick. These two problems have been solved. As long as the spiritual materials can keep up, there will be almost no obstacles in practicing the thunder method.
It can be said that after coming back from Peach Blossom Island, in the past one or two months, my Lei method has made rapid progress, and I have hope of hitting the 11th major.
After the tenth level of hearing thunder in the palm, there will be different changes every time it increases to one level, and now Chen Huaisheng is concentrating on trying to figure out the changes in the thunder method.
The accumulation will not start again until the second stage of Extreme Sea Thunder hits after the thirteenth level.
"Huaisheng, I find that your self-confidence is stronger than anyone else now, but this is a good thing." Wu Tianen stroked his beard with a satisfied smile and leaned back in the chair, "Then you will be in charge of this trip to Huluji. I'll just hold the line for you."
"Uncle, I don't dare to do this, and I feel that the appearance of this demon corpse may not be that simple." Chen Huaisheng shook his head.
His view is different from others.
While everyone felt that the matters in Bajiao Village and Lingyun Sect were the most difficult, Chen Huaisheng felt that as long as the person in charge made up his mind, those two matters might be simple.
But if we are careless about the monster corpse, the boat may even capsize.
"Oh?" Wu Tianen was confused, "Do you have any misunderstandings about demon corpses? No matter how powerful the evil demon ghost is, as long as the source can be found, it can be eradicated. The incident of Lu Zhaolin cannot find the target, otherwise if It is really the work of a demon, and if the demon appears again, it will be eliminated!"
To this day, Wu Tianen is still brooding about what happened to Lu Zhaolin.
It's a pity that Lu Zhaolin's accident happened in Liao County, and the landowner Lingyun Sect at that time was not very cooperative. Many clues were unsubstantiated and the investigation could not be continued. In the end, it became an unsolved case.
Chen Huaisheng was also involved in this matter, but because there were enough clues, he later put it aside. Now that I think about it, there are indeed many doubts in it.
"Uncle, I can't tell, but I just don't feel good." Chen Huaisheng shook his head.
After learning that he was going to Huluji to deal with the demon corpse case, Chen Huaisheng immediately took a test with Taishang Sensing Technique. It was also a bad omen, so Chen Huaisheng couldn't help but feel bad luck secretly.
After Wu Tianen was stunned for a moment, he composed himself and lowered his voice: "Huai Sheng, did you use your Supreme Sensing Technique to predict?"
Chen Huaisheng nodded, "Master, my induction is basically reliable."
Regarding Wu Tianen, Chen Huaisheng never had much to hide.
Except for things that really couldn't be seen, such as the cauldron and the three spirits in his body, and his friendship with Xiong Zhuang, Chen Huaisheng basically didn't hide other things from Wu Tianen, even including the situations of Min Qingyu and Ren Wugou.
Wu Tianen became serious. He knew that Chen Huaisheng's Taishang Sensing Technique had been practiced for so long, and it was somewhat reliable. That is, bad omens were basically accurate, but good omens were not necessarily certain.
Is there really some terrible secret in this demon corpse case?
"That being the case, Huai Sheng, you should also be fully prepared. There is nothing good about the newly established Ministry of Internal Affairs, but it turns out there are some high-level talismans to ward off evil spirits. Bring them all. If you have suitable magic weapons, please add them. , people from Fengyi Sect will also come to interfere, we cannot lose the momentum of Chonghua Sect. "
Chen Huaisheng didn't take Wu Tianen's words seriously. If there was really danger, he would rather let Feng Yi Sect take the lead.
"Uncle, this can be regarded as an opportunity to practice. The disciple wants both Sandang Ling and Min Qingyu to go..."
Chen Huaisheng's words were interrupted by Wu Tianen: "Since you predicted bad omens, wouldn't it be more dangerous to let Sandang Ling and Min Qingyu go?"
"Uncle, the road to cultivation is inherently long and arduous. If you can advance just by practicing hard in the sect, how can you reach the high level of Qi refining so quickly?" Chen Huaisheng said calmly: "I will work with you. They made it clear that it is up to them to decide whether they want to do it or not. If they don’t dare to have this little experience, then their achievements will probably be very limited.”
Wu Tianen hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed: "Then you decide for yourself. If they go, they need to be prepared for protection."
On the fourth day of February, the group set off and headed south to Huluji.
Hu Delu and Zhao Liangkui have both gone into seclusion to practice hard, while Ren Wuguo and Yun Lei are practicing step by step.
For Sandeling and Min Qingyu, this is indeed an opportunity full of temptation and crisis.
Chen Huaisheng was right. If you don't experience wind and rain, how can you see a rainbow? This sentence also touched the two of them.
