If one's sole purpose is to pursue the cultivation to the Nascent Soul Ghost Emperor or the Divine Ghost Lord, then the underworld can last for about a thousand years.
But what about a thousand years later?
The local government’s resources are under pressure, and what awaits the underworld will be an unprecedented melee!
Maoshan will also be affected by this. This is why the underworld is in such a state of panic. The fluctuation of the aura of every cultivator above the level of a soul may make other forces think that a fight is breaking out prematurely.
The Seventh Ancestor was also well aware of this.
"Fourth Ancestor, I don't know much. According to Shi Jian's experience over the past few years, first of all, the underworld in that world is empty and there is no underworld.
Secondly, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is abundant, enough to support cultivators in their practice to the level of primordial spirit or even immortal.
Also, among the disciples of Maoshan who once chose to enter that world, Xiao Linzi is already at the peak of the Yuanshen realm, which can be said to be rapid progress!"
Hearing the Seventh Patriarch's words, the Fourth Patriarch began to feel restless.
"So, this world can be chosen as the migration destination for Maoshan?"
When the Fourth Patriarch said this, the Seventh Patriarch also looked solemn and nodded heavily.
That’s right, the founder of the Maoshan Underworld is already planning a way out for the Maoshan ancestral temple on earth. It’s impossible for the Maoshan heritage to be cut off just because the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has completely dissipated, right?
In addition to Maoshan on earth, if possible, the ancestors of the underworld who serve in the netherworld are also likely to migrate into that world with Maoshan on earth.
Of course, the prerequisite is that they need to give up their status and official positions in the underworld.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to enter the passage...
"This matter is worth discussing, but there is no need to rush. Wait until the time is right before making a decision!"
The Fourth Patriarch was also able to keep his composure. At a time like this, that world was a piece of fat meat. If Maoshan were to be exposed, other old guys in the underworld would surely swarm in, and by then Maoshan would suffer more losses than gains.
The Seventh Patriarch could only agree with this.
From the beginning to the end, neither the Seventh Ancestor nor the Fourth Ancestor thought too much about why the Seventh Ancestor's spirit could use Shi Jian to explore that world and return safely. It could be considered a kind of protection for Shi Jian...
There is no need to mention the tacit understanding, because the result has been decided anyway.
...................................................
In the world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio.
As the elder of the Patriarch's Hall who led the Maoshan disciples to Mount Longhu, Shi Jian left Leisheng Island and went to the Maoshan Elders' Hall for the first time today.
Similar to the zombie world, the Elders' Hall is the place where the elders and the head monk of each hall of Maoshan discuss matters.
As a cultivator in the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, Master Mingshan was no stranger to Shi Jian. After all, Master Mingshan's master, Elder Zhixian, had informed Mingshan of Shi Jian's situation a few days ago.
How could Mingshan disappoint Elder Zhixian with such an easy-to-understand truth?
Sitting in the first seat, Master Mingshan looked at the elders below and coughed slightly.
"My fellow elders, the Maoshan Dragon and Tiger Exchange, which takes place once every ten years, is about to begin. Which elder is willing to bring his disciples to Mount Longhu for a visit?"
A solemn look was on his face, and every move he made was filled with the aura of a superior to Master Mingshan.
The elders below looked at each other, but in the end no one said anything.
This matter was not a good thing for them. If Maoshan was defeated too obviously, they would even lose face.
There is no way. The disciples of Mount Longhu practice the Five Thunders Orthodox Method and the Golden Light Divine Mantra as standard. They are armed to the teeth, while the disciples of Mount Mao are good at using talismans and formations.
If you communicate with each other, you will definitely suffer a loss in the fight.
Seeing that all the elders were silent, Master Mingshan was not surprised. This kind of thing always happens. Unless these elders are asked to go down the mountain to eliminate demons and monsters, they have no motivation at all. "Well, since none of the elders are willing to lead the team to Mount Longhu, let me ask the ancestors and elders in the Patriarch Hall for instructions."
As soon as he finished speaking, Master Mingshan pretended to inform the Patriarch Hall with his spiritual sense, and then, as if he had heard a secret that could not be told, he turned his gaze to the elders again.
"My fellow elders, the Patriarch Hall has just issued a decree that the Patriarch Hall will send a young elder to lead the exchange at Mount Longhu."
As he spoke, Sect Master Mingshan shifted his gaze from the elders to outside the hall.
Where, Shi Jian was standing right there!
As if it had been discussed beforehand, Shi Jian stepped into the hall with powerful steps one by one.
In an instant, the auras of dozens of late Nascent Souls with Yin Spirits leaving their bodies and peak Nascent Souls with Yang Spirits leaving their bodies intertwined together and came towards him to explore.
Shi Jian welcomed everyone who came and did not hide anything, allowing the elders to examine him for a long time.
"When did such a genius appear in the Patriarch's Hall?"
"Although this aura is just the Yin Spirit leaving the body, the bone age is so young!"
“Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder it belongs to the Patriarch Hall.”
........................
The elders were all talking and whispering to each other, and they were all extremely curious about Shi Jian.
"Elder Shi Jian is the candidate for the exchange with Mount Longhu from the Patriarch Hall this time!"
As Sect Master Mingshan revealed the identity of the young man in front of him, all the elders were stunned.
"He is Shi Jian, the Shi Jian who became famous in Maoshan a few days ago?"
“Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder I’m not jealous of this person entering the Patriarch Hall. For someone who is less than a hundred years old and in the late Nascent Soul stage, won’t it be easy for him to achieve the Divine Transformation in the future?
Even...hiss!"
As if he had thought of something, the elder was suddenly speechless.
Shi Jian didn't care about the elders' whispers.
He came to the center of the hall and bowed to Mingshan above him.
"Master Mingshan, if Shi Jian needs anything done, just give us your instructions."
Although Shi Jian's cultivation level is not as high as the other party's, his status in the Patriarch's Hall is higher than that of the headmaster.
Therefore, it objectively shows that Shan Zhangjiao could not control Shi Jian, and Shi Jian's bowing was enough to give him face.
The other elders didn't find it strange...
"Hahahaha, Elder Shi Jian, your name is well-known to me!
My master has instructed that this trip to Mount Longhu is entirely up to you, Elder Shi Jian.
However, if there is anything you need help with, the Elder Hall will definitely do its best to assist Elder Shi."
Mingshan really didn't lie about this. His master, Elder Zhixian, had told him this many times. In a nutshell, don't yell at Shi Jian just because he is young. He is the future pillar of Maoshan and you can't be careless about him.
Shi Jian was not surprised. Elder Zhixian had arranged everything properly. He only needed to go to Longhu Mountain to take a look. Why should he care too much?
"In that case, I'll trouble you, Master, to send me to the island in three days..."
"Hahaha, this is natural!" (End of this chapter)
