Chapter 132 The Wind Rises

Death and taxes are two inevitable events for every cultivator under the jurisdiction of a force in Lingnan.

This is the rule!

However, the taxation in the Xuanyin Sect and Qingyun Sect is very different.

After the autumn harvest, the major forces under the Qingyun Sect generally collect various spiritual minerals and spiritual stones from the collected spiritual plants, and they pay the most attention to the collection of spiritual plants, and can even use the latter to offset the tax paid by the former.

However, the cities under the Xuanyin Sect are just the opposite. They collect very few spiritual plants, but pay the most attention to one thing, that is, corpses!

Every year, the Xuanyin Sect servants who come to collect taxes not only take away a large number of evil spiritual objects, but also have special long carts, on which are... coffins containing corpses!

Of course, according to the regulations, the corpse must be natural, that is, death from old age or accidental death, and cannot be homicide, otherwise it will be held accountable by the patrolling cultivators of the Xuanyin Sect.

It seems strange that a demon sect can have such a rule, but if you think about it carefully, it is very normal.

The disciples of the Demonic Path were selected from mortals after all. If the people below were allowed to kill indiscriminately, they would automatically become extinct over time without the Qingyun Sect killing them, so there was such a rule.

The corpses here can be used as materials to offset the taxes and labor service of the Xuanyin Sect.

It is just like in some areas, hunting venomous snakes or other fierce animals can be used as taxes and labor service, but this time the compensation is more special.

Taxes - Xuanyin Sect collects a certain amount of harvest from all its subordinates every year.

Labor - Whether mortals or monks bring their own dry food every year, they work for Xuanyin Sect for a certain period of time without pay.

These two things can be said to be two big mountains.

But being able to offset it with corpses can be regarded as a year's taxes and labor service. Compared with the funeral expenses borne by the family, it can be said to reduce a lot of burdens, so the resistance of the lower class is not very strong.

After all, they have no hope for life, and they seem to be good when they are alive, but they are essentially materials, and there is no benefit. On the contrary, they can offset taxes after death, so they did not resist this arrangement.

But they eventually forgot one thing, this world is a world where the strong prey on the weak.

The high-level leaders of Xuanyin Sect seem to follow the rules, behave well, and give enough face to the cultivators below, but in fact it is because they have not touched the core interests of Xuanyin Sect.

But if one day, the value of these low-level cultivators is not enough, it is time for them to tear their faces apart.

Just like now.

"Ah! Don't come over!"

"Monster, I will fight you!"

"My lord, I am loyal to Xuanyin Sect... Puff!"

"You demon cultivators will definitely die a miserable death... Hoo!"

Collapsed houses, blazing fires, zombies chasing people, and people wailing everywhere.

At this moment, the area under Xuanyin Sect, far away from Qingyun Sect, covering more than ten large cities, is a scene of blood and fire, just like a massacre.

The [Corpse Poison] that Xuanyin Sect spent hundreds of years to create is spreading in this city.

Mortals infected by corpse poison will become ordinary zombies, constantly sucking living things, and begin to grow fluffy white hair all over their bodies, which is enough to kill innate warriors.

Among them, the gifted strong ones, infected by the death and Yin Qi, will slowly lose their white hair, replaced by black hair, and contain the evil spirit of interfering with magic and law. At this time, they are enough to compete with the cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage.

And if they can go one step further and combine the death, resentment, Yin, and evil spirit into one, they can evolve into extremely terrifying walking zombies, which are equivalent to the body refining cultivators, and have the terrifying evil spirit of breaking the spiritual arts, which is enough to fight against the foundation building.

As for the zombies of Jindan, they are formed by various coincidences, and even the Xuanyin Sect has only a few of them. The corpse poison that has been created does not have the ability to create them.

But even so, it is enough to see the horror of this corpse poison, because as long as it is given a sufficient population base and death and other things, it is enough to create a large number of terrible zombies below Jindan.

The existence of this corpse poison is the key to their attack on Qingyun Sect!

At the moment, they spread these corpse poisons in the area under their jurisdiction, on the one hand for experiments, and on the other hand, naturally for enough corpses!

"Brother, is it really okay for us to do this?"

A black-clothed monk stood in the air above a big city.

His eye sockets were sunken, his skin was dry and brown, and his shape was like a zombie. He was one of the two golden elixirs of Xuanyin Sect - True Man Meteorite!

"It's just some talents, why, junior brother, you still have sympathy?" Next to him, a ghost appeared, and the voice was gloomy and weird.

He was True Man Taiyin.

"Brother, don't joke." True Man Meteorite said expressionlessly, "It's just that we broke the rules first, and I'm worried that we will be backlashed by the forces below."

They set the rules in Xuanyin Sect, and the people below abide by them, so there is this order.

But if they break it first, the other forces below will definitely not sit idly by, and will secretly contact Qingyun Sect, causing a lot of trouble for their future rule.

"Don't worry, the military force that can really influence the situation is not in their hands. They can just make a scene and be dealt with by giving them some benefits." Taiyin Zhenren said sinisterly.

"On the contrary, Qingyun Sect is the real threat. We must collect enough corpses to expand our advantage in the place where the gods fell. For this, even if more people die, it is worth it!"

Master Yue Zhi was silent for a moment, and then said: "Everything depends on senior brother."

"Jiejie, okay." The ghost shadow fluctuated for a while, and then said, "Then I'll leave this place to you."

Then, the entire ghost image dissipated directly.

The fallen corpse master looked at the position where he disappeared, withdrew his gaze, and then pressed down.

Woo~

Throughout the city, countless eerie cries were heard, and ghosts one after another came out of the streets, alleys, and ruins, forming a dark cloud of ghosts in mid-air!

Among the clouds, faces emerged one after another. Their faces were vicious, their breaths were cold, their eyes were crazy, and they carried a curse on life. Under the clouds, there were zombies gathering from all over the city!

Xuanyinmen, in the boundless cemetery.

Master Taiyin slowly opened his eyes and said to the side: "The power to block the place where the gods fell has dissipated a lot. Obviously the battle between the two sides has entered a critical moment. We can go in."

"Jiejie, can those little guys under your sect be able to defeat the true disciple of the Qingyun Sect across from you?" A blood shadow appeared next to Master Taiyin.

"Hey! Three true disciples and a large number of outstanding disciples have been killed by you. The remaining replacements are nothing to be afraid of!" Master Taiyin snorted coldly.

"Jiejie, I think we should prepare a backup plan just in case, right?" The blood shadow changed erratically, and there was a bloody aura, and he said with a strange smile.

"What do you mean by this?" When Master Taiyin heard this, his eyes couldn't help but condense.

"What I mean is..." Xue Ying paused at this moment, and gradually approached Taiyin Master, showing a strange smile, "How about we send some people in to intercept and kill to ensure that you can get the Enlightenment Stone? "

"What are you talking about?!" Master Taiyin's stiff face completely changed color.

It turned out that the other party was able to bypass the Qingyun Sect's defense and directly invade their interior, which already made him realize that something was wrong.

After all, even if the Qingyun Sect doesn't understand the demonic path of flesh and blood, it is still the existence of the spiritual transformation. How could it be possible for a golden elixir demon cultivator to unknowingly project its power into it.

Not to mention that now, they still have the ability to take action at the place where the Avatar God fell!

Being able to do this can only mean that the other party, like them, also has the inheritance from the Transformation God, and may even be a force belonging to the Transformation God!

But why do these forces try so hard to help their Xuanyin Sect, and what kind of calculation is there? !

Qingyun Sect, Qingyun Mountain.

Four figures were sitting under the huge spiritual tree, and each one of them had reached the golden elixir level!

Apparently, the Qingyun Sect's Zhentian elder had managed to hide it from everyone and was successfully promoted to the Golden Core without anyone noticing!

"We already have four people, enough to set up a four-elephant spirit-sealing formation to seal off the world! At that time, if things change, we will overturn the table, set up a large formation, and kill them all in one fell swoop!"

On the throne, Master Qingyang looked solemn and decided clearly.

He didn't put all his hopes on Lin Chen, and he didn't even set his sights on the place where the gods fell. Instead, he set his sights on places that no one could have imagined.

That is to capture the thief first and capture the king first, and attack the Xuanyin Sect Golden Pill directly!

Once something goes wrong, a few Jindan Daoists will destroy all the top combat power of the Xuanyin Sect, even at the cost of damage!

Several other Jindan masters nodded, and they were already prepared to work hard for this trip.

"In that case, let's get started." Master Changqing said in a deep voice. Suddenly, one after another spiritual light flew out, alarming the entire Qingyun Sect.

"It's finally begun. Alas, the leisurely days are over."

In a mountain range, Lin Chen received a message from the spirit talisman and couldn't help but sigh.

A few days later, at the white dawn in the east, he stepped out of the mountains and walked outside.

"Huh?" However, just after leaving the mountains for a while.

On the only way to leave, Lin Chen felt a red leaf floating toward him wrapped in true energy.

"This is it?" Lin Chen was slightly stunned and took the red leaf.

Its whole body is deep red, brighter than fire, representing a color that belongs to late autumn.

Lin Chen took a closer look and saw a line of elegant handwriting engraved on it:

Junior brother, be careful.

Lin Chen seemed to have sensed something. When he looked back, he saw a female revisionist in palace attire standing on the hillside not far away, staring in his direction.

‘Although many people in the middle and upper levels will notice the anomaly, the specific departure time, unless the participants and Master Jindan, are almost unknown to others. So she sensed something was wrong and is here, waiting until now? ’

This thought flashed through Lin Chen's mind, and then he waved to the figure, and a clear voice resounded throughout the valley: "Don't worry, it's just a small matter."

Xu Mengyun, who was standing on the hillside, smiled slightly when she saw this, and her figure jumped down into the jungle and disappeared.

Seeing this, Lin Chen turned around and his back gradually faded away.

What he didn't know was that not long after he left, an alluring figure appeared where he was standing, looking at the direction in which he was going.

"Return safely."

A very thin voice sounded on the road, like a whisper, like a whisper, and gradually disappeared into the wind and mist passing through the mountains and ridges.
