Looking at the closed mountain gate and the empty mountain gate of Taoist Sect, Jiang Yun couldn't help but think of the scenes when he first came here.
At that time, the Taoist Sect, as the most powerful sect in Nanshan Prefecture, was a place that countless monks yearned for. Every time it recruited disciples, it was like a grand festival.
But now, just ten years have passed, but things have changed.
Not to mention Taoism, there are hardly many living beings in the entire Nanshan Prefecture.
Those who fled, those who died, and those who surrendered, made Nanshan Prefecture completely silent.
And a year later, Nanshan Prefecture will be swallowed up by the Boundary Sea, and we don’t know when it will be able to see the light of day again.
The main culprit for all this is the alliance of the three major forces and the catastrophe of mountains and seas.
"The three major forces, the spirits of the sea, you have destroyed this world!"
With endless anger, Jiang Yun appeared in front of the Taoist sect's mountain gate.
"He who comes is stopped!"
At this moment, a deep voice sounded from within the Taoist Sect.
But before Jiang Yun could speak, another voice had already sounded: "Open the mountain gate quickly, that's Senior Brother Jiang Yunjiang!"
Apparently, some of the disciples responsible for guarding the mountain gate had recognized Jiang Yun.
As the voice fell, the closed mountain gate immediately opened with a bang, and dozens of disciples rushed out from it, all of them with excitement on their faces.
Jiang Yun's name had already resounded throughout the Taoist sect when he first entered the mirage, not to mention his deeds of single-handedly destroying the enemies of the Senluo Ghost Prison invasion this time, which had already made him famous among all The idol and role model in the hearts of Taoist disciples.
Looking at the faces that were similar to his own age, or even a little younger than his own, Jiang Yun politely raised his fists at them and said, "Thank you for your hard work, everyone!"
These disciples, regardless of their cultivation level and age, are able to never leave the sect when the sect is in trouble. For this reason alone, they are worthy of Jiang Yun's respect.
Everyone obviously didn't expect that Jiang Yun would salute them and others. Everyone was flattered and hurriedly returned the salute, and then said in a hurry: "Senior Brother Jiang, you are too polite. Compared with you, we have done nothing!"
"Yes, Senior Brother Jiang, it would be great if you came back. Now we have hope of regaining the Taoist Sect."
"Originally, we wanted to go to Shiwanmang Mountain to see if we could help our senior brother, but the sect master had an order not to let us leave the sect."
"Senior Brother Jiang, is your home okay?"
Hearing everyone's heartfelt words of concern, Jiang Yun was quite moved. He nodded and said, "Thank you for your concern. Mangshan is fine."
"That's good, that's good, Senior Brother Jiang, come back to the sect quickly, the sect master and the others are waiting for you!"
Looking at the looks of these disciples, Jiang Yun knew without thinking that he definitely did not tell the disciples in the sect about the sect leader's imminent death.
"good!"
ng
Jiang Yun said nothing more and stepped into the Taoist Sect.
At the same time, Lao Hei's voice came to his ears: "Jiang Yun, hurry up, come to the top of Zangfeng Peak!"
Lao Hei's urgent voice made Jiang Yun dare not neglect him, and he was already under the hidden peak in a blink of an eye.
Looking at the hidden peak, Jiang Yun couldn't help but take a deep breath, and even lowered his head. He didn't dare to look at the familiar hidden peak again, for fear of arousing his thoughts and memories, but appeared directly at the top of the hidden peak. above.
At this moment, there are five people on the top of Zangfeng.
Dao Tianyou was sitting cross-legged on the spot where Gu Bulao had been sitting. Surrounded by him were Lao Hei, Xia Zhongxing, Lan Huazhao and Shen Zhanrong.
Although Dao Tianyou's face was pale and his whole body was full of deathly aura, when he saw Jiang Yun's appearance, his dim eyes lit up and he smiled and said: "Jiang Yun, you are back!"
Jiang Yun strode up to Dao Tianyou and knelt down without any hesitation: "Disciple Jiang Yun, pay your respects to the sect master!"
This was Jiang Yun's first time to kneel down and worship God.
Jiang Yun didn't like the ritual of kneeling down and worshiping neither heaven nor earth. In his life, he had only worshiped his relatives and master. But now, looking at Dao Tianyou and the master of his sect, he knelt down.
This also represents his recognition and respect for the sect master.
Jiang Yun's kneeling made the smile on Dao Tianyou's face grow stronger. Although he wanted to reach out and help him up, he was unable to do so and could only say: "Get up, Jiang Yun!"
"yes!"
As Jiang Yun stood up, the four of them, Lao Hei, didn't need Dao Tianyou to speak at all. At the same time, they bowed their fists to Dao Tianyou, then nodded to Jiang Yun, and left one after another with sad expressions.
Obviously, they knew that Dao Tianyou must have something to tell Jiang Yun, so they left time for the two of them.
"You kid, if I wasn't waiting for you to come back, I would have closed my eyes and died!"
"metropolitan!"
The first words of Dao Tianyou made Jiang Yun feel sour in his heart.
He could naturally tell that Dao Tianyou was already on his deathbed, and he was really holding on for breath, waiting for him.
A month ago, he had sent away his third senior brother Xuanyuan Xing here, but now, he had to send away his sect master again, which made Jiang Yun feel extremely uncomfortable.
However, seeing Jiang Yun lowering his head and saying nothing, Dao Tianyou laughed out loud and said: "Haha, silly boy, I wanted to tease you again, but I really don't have much time, so I'll stay with you Tell the truth!"
"Don't worry, the return to heaven I'm talking about is not death, but the real return to heaven!"
These words made Jiang Yun suddenly raise his lowered head, and looked at Dao Tianyou with a puzzled look on his face.
What does it mean not to die, but to truly return to heaven
"Come, sit down, I'll tell you!"
Jiang Yun sat down confused. He wanted to ask, but he didn't know how to ask, so Tianyou took the initiative and said: "Actually, what you see of me is just my soul. My true self is not here." Here, we are asking Heaven!"
Jiang Yun, who had just sat down, almost jumped up.
Naturally, he could understand the meaning of Dao Tianyou's words, but he really couldn't believe it or accept it.
Dao Tianyou seemed to think that Jiang Yun was not stimulated enough, and continued: "Taoist sect is one of the nine great sects among the thousands of Taoist realms. This is just a branch of my Taoist sect. The real sect is Wentaotian!"
"Nine Dao Sect, ask the heaven!"
Jiang Yun repeated these two words in his mouth, with a look of shock on his face.
Wendaotian is naturally a high-level Taoist realm like Lei Jitian and Jiang Yaotian, or a larger world composed of countless Taoist realms.
As for the Nine Dao Sects, they must be the nine most powerful sects in the monastic world.
Moreover, it is not the mountain and sea realm, but the nine most powerful sects among the thousands of Tao realms!
The Taoist Sect in the Shanhai Realm is just a branch of the main Taoist Sect!
The shock on Jiang Yun's face gradually turned into a bitter smile. How many shocking secrets are hidden in this world, or around him, that he doesn't know about
"I can't explain to you the power of Taoism Sect in detail now. I can only tell you that there are at least tens of thousands of Taoism branch sects like Shanhaijie. According to the overall strength, all branch sects range from low to high. It ranges from one to nine levels."
"Once the comprehensive strength of a branch sect reaches level nine, it will be eligible to merge into the main sect and become a disciple of the main sect."
"Shanhai Taoist Sect is not only one of many branch sects, but also a second-level branch with weak overall strength!"
