This is how immortals are cultivated

Carrying this harmless sword energy, Jin Roufeng's sister Jin Bailu does not need to have too close a relationship with Bai Lian even if she is in Taizhou.

But no one expected that an accident would still happen under such arrangements.

The general, who is the leader of the eight generals, accidentally met Jin Bailu, but was attracted by the sword energy on his body.

Although the sword energy was different from the Miaoshengtian Lingji, it did contain very pure characteristics.

The yin and yang of heaven and earth, the extreme yin energy that takes the power of the Nine Heavens Taiyin and Nine Nether Earth Evil has a great appeal to Tianjiang, the god general who carries the position of "Sun". It can even be said that if it is used reasonably, the probability of breaking through the true disaster can be greatly increased.

This is the reason for the conflict between the two.

Chapter 188: Holy Son Jingzhou Affairs

However, although Tian Jiang and Jin Roufeng seemed to have a conflict because of Jin Bailu, there were actually deeper reasons behind it.

In the White Lotus lineage, apart from the gods and immortals who are worshipped, the top leaders are the two saints and one master.

The three are a trinity, with the Holy Lord as the head.

But now this Holy Lord has reached the realm of Holy Truth, and saints cannot exist forever in the secular world.

The matter in Taizhou is over, and this holy lord has gone to the Pure Heaven where the Mother of Heaven is.

Now in the secular world, all affairs of the White Lotus Holy Sect are decided by the Holy Maiden Bai Zhener and another White Lotus Holy Son Su Changsheng.

However, the situation of this Holy Son, whose status in the church is equal to that of the Holy Lady, is rather special.

Bai Zhen'er was chosen to be the saint of the religion when she was still in her mother's womb. She stayed in the religion afterwards, received support, and cultivated all the way to Zhen'e.

But the Holy Son has always been reborn outside.

Yes, before the Taizhou uprising, the Holy Son of White Lotus had never returned to his position.

It was not until the White Lotus Cult started an uprising in Taizhou and turned from secret to open that the Son of God returned to the cult.

When the identity of this Son of God was revealed, everyone was shocked.

This White Lotus Saint Son was the young master of the Guangguang Marquis family of the Wu Kingdom. He had studied Dao within the Holy True Daoist lineage since his youth, and had ascended to the Spiritual Secret realm at the tender age of twenty. He was known as a genius and could be considered a legitimate descendant of the Wu Kingdom's lineage, the Taishangtian lineage.

At the beginning, the suppression army sent by Wu State to Taizhou had a real man as the commander-in-chief, and then the young marquis was the deputy commander-in-chief.

One can imagine what happened afterwards. The original royal priest of Wu State was killed due to the betrayal of the White Lotus Saint. Along with the original army of 100,000, many of the elite Taoist soldiers were also killed and buried in Taizhou.

Putting aside the confrontation at the highest level, at least in terms of secular power, when both sides gathered their armies to confront each other, Bai Lian was able to gain a huge advantage, and this was largely due to the betrayal of the Holy Son who held a high position in the Wu army.

And it was with this merit, as well as the accumulation gained from killing 100,000 people and even a real person in the ritual, that the Son of God completed his own promotion to the True Evil Realm.

However, this Holy Son has a strong personality. If the Holy Lord was suppressing him before and the situation was at a critical moment, any contradictions could be suppressed. But now that the Holy Lord has ascended and the White Lotus Demon Sect has secured victory, the internal contradictions are also showing signs of breaking out.

Just as the White Lotus Saint has the [Four Wonderful Heavenly Maidens] as her team, the Holy Lord and the Holy Son also have their own team.

The Holy Lord’s are the [Five Heavenly Priests], while the Holy Son’s are the [Eight Divine Generals].

Tian Jiang, the leader of the Eight Divine Generals, was one of the people who knew the true identity of the Son of God long ago, and was his most core confidant.

The previous conflict between Tian Jiang and Jin Roufeng can be seen as a test of the Holy Daughter by the Holy Son who had just returned to the Holy Church.

Bai Zhener naturally understood the temptation of this nominal partner.

He responded back without mercy and suppressed the general that day.

After understanding Bai Zhener's attitude, Su Changsheng also behaved well for a while.

"Is the general causing you trouble again?"

Bai Zhener asked with a smile, but her eyes were full of coldness.

Previously, the Heavenly General was suppressed by Bai Zhener for Su Changsheng. The White Lotus Saint also compensated the Heavenly General and even sacrificed some of his own resources to help the Heavenly General break through the true disaster.

Zhen'e Zhenren is considered a high-ranking person no matter where he is, not to mention that Tianjiang himself is the leader of the Eight Divine Generals and has a respected status.

If Jin Roufeng could rely on his status and the favor of his mistress before and not be afraid of the general, then now he couldn't do that when facing the general who was truly doomed.

She could only come to her own lady for help.

Seeing her little maid nod pitifully, Bai Zhener sighed:

"If you practice diligently and can complete the great accomplishment of the Heavenly Maiden Dharma Bone Dao Zang soon, that would be great. If you reach that point, since that Su guy was able to push the Heavenly General into the realm of true misfortune, how could I, your lady, not be able to push you into the realm of true misfortune?"

It can only be said that comparison makes one feel the thief of joy. The ancestor of the Jin family tried his best and even took out a "loan" to obtain the resources for promotion. For Jin Roufeng, her young lady had prepared the resources for her early on, but it was only because Jin Roufeng had not practiced hard enough and had not yet reached the pinnacle of spiritual secrets.

"Miss, I will definitely work hard on my training from now on, and I will definitely live up to your reputation outside."

Hearing Jin Roufeng say this, Bai Zhener pinched his cheek lovingly:

"Practice should be done step by step. If you practice too hastily, you will go astray. Although I can save you, you will no longer have the qualities that I love so much."

"Besides, it's not your fault. Who would have thought that Zhan Li, this idiot, is so incompetent?"

"Could it be that... Jingzhou encountered setbacks?" Jin Roufeng asked subconsciously after hearing Bai Zhener's words.

Since the Holy Son of White Lotus dared to provoke her, Bai Zhen'er would definitely fight back in addition to dealing with the Heavenly General.

Bai Zhener directly used the opportunity of breaking through the true disaster to instigate the fire general Zhan Li, one of the eight generals under Su Changsheng, to rebel.

Bai Zhener had made arrangements in Jingzhou a long time ago.

Not only did he place many saints of Lingmi, but he also recruited Yin Cang Blood Demon and Jingzhou's Great Demon Lan Can as his subordinates to contain the Lingmi of the academy over there.

In addition, Taizhou attracted most of Wu's attention, leaving Wu no time to care about Jingzhou. It can be said that as long as he sent someone to lead the troops there, he could take the entire Jingzhou.

By then, setting up another altar on the land of a state will indeed be enough to attract a divine thought from the Heavenly Mother and help a peak spiritual master to break through the true disaster.

The temptation of breaking through the realm did attract Zhan Li, who was supposed to be a subordinate of the White Lotus Saint, to join him.

Under the temptation of breaking through the realm, Zhan Li did accept her recruitment and went to Jingzhou happily.

but...

"The life-saving item I gave Zhan Li showed signs of being used, and not long after, Zhan Li's soul lamp shattered."

"Previously, the Wu Kingdom set up a massive formation in Taizhou, sealing it off from both inside and outside. I couldn't control Jingzhou remotely, otherwise how could Zhan Li take over Jingzhou? Now it seems that things are changing in Jingzhou. All the methods previously deployed have been broken, and now Zhan Li has even died."

No one would be happy after spending decades planning a state and seeing it turn out like this. Even in Taizhou now, the Wu army and those Zhen E's have retreated, and the blockade of the entire state has been lifted.

Jin Roufeng fell silent and lowered his head obediently, as if he sensed the displeasure beneath his young lady's charming smile.

However, she could be sure of one thing, that was the problem that was bothering her, and that would definitely be solved today.

Sure enough, after telling Jin Roufeng about this, Bai Zhener mentioned that general again.

"It seems that the lesson I gave you last time was not enough. You still dare to provoke me."

The gentle tone became extremely cold, and the sweet voice seemed to turn into a sharp scream at this moment, causing the temperature in the entire temple to drop significantly.

Tian Jiang had touched Bai Zhener's bad luck. Even though she had just achieved true evil and her status in the church had been further improved, if she really wanted to teach her a lesson, this saint would not show any mercy.

She just blew a breath forward, and suddenly an invisible cold current surged out of the curtain of the altar, out of the temple, and blew towards the distance.

On a battlefield somewhere in Taizhou, on a blood-red altar made of piled corpses, a warrior over three meters tall, wearing golden armor, was looking down at the wailing of the remaining Wu army below.

A Wu master who was his opponent had also retreated.

This golden-armored general is the 'Heavenly General', whose real name is Ji Xing. He did not reveal his Dharma image at this time, but appeared in an ordinary posture. Suddenly, he felt a chill on his back, and his inspiration was triggered, and he gave warnings frantically.

When he looked up again, his vision was shrouded in a hazy white mist, and a pair of cold eyes were staring at him.

Without thinking, Ji Xing summoned his Dharma image, which was a Dharma image wearing a star robe with a human figure outline of the starry sky inside.

But when his Dharma image was revealed, a pair of pale ghost hands wrapped around his neck. The stars flowing above the Dharma image solidified instantly, and the shining stars went out one by one, turning into grayish-white.

His entire appearance seemed to be frozen.

Immediately afterwards, the being with a pair of cold eyes and a face covered by gray mist blew a breath into the ear of Ji Xing's Dharma image.

This breath seemed to carry a terrible corrosive force, which was soul-stirring and bone-chilling, causing the star Dharma image to collapse rapidly, and then fed back to Ji Xing's Dharma body, causing his body to shrink rapidly.

Just as Ji Xing was extremely frightened, a voice rang in his ears again:

"The Great Art of Binding Resentment and Bringing Misfortune... You are truly skilled, my dear. You have mastered this extremely difficult and profound divine power of our sect."

"However, treating a true master of the sect like this, and a divine general who has just made great contributions, seems a little inappropriate, even if you are a saint, Zhen'er."

A seed fell and landed on the strange creature in the white mist. Tentacles spread out from the seed and began to take root and sprout in an instant, turning into a lotus. Mucus was oozing out of every hole in the lotus, and the mucus dripped and melted the strange creature that was entangled with Ji Xing's Dharma image.

A young man in white appeared beside Ji Xing. He was gentle and elegant, like a nobleman who was not tainted by the corrupt world. He was holding a bone folding fan in his hand.

It was this noble young man who spoke, with colorful vortices in his pupils.

Although he was speaking to the strange existence, he was actually speaking to Bai Zhener behind it.

The Dharma thought that came along with this strange existence also turned into a piece of information in the void.

There was a hint of fear in the cold words:

"Vacuum Tribulation Sutra... Thousand Lotus Tribulation Sea... Su Changsheng, you haven't been cultivating your power for more than half a year..."

"After all, I am the Holy Son inspired by the Heavenly Mother's calamity, destined to be your Taoist companion. Isn't it normal for me to do this?"

The young man tapped the folding fan gently in his hand, but the magic thought left by Bai Zhener had no intention of paying any attention to him and dissipated directly.

"My Lord..."

After being rescued, Ji Xing, the heavenly general, knelt on one knee and saluted the noble young man, or the White Lotus Saint Su Changsheng.

"Thank you for your hard work, Ji Xing."

Su Changsheng said gently:

"I didn't expect this woman to have such a fierce temper. She can't tolerate even the slightest grain of sand in her eyes..."

"So, I have to give it a good ** in the future..."

Ji Xing took the big pill handed to him by his own holy son and swallowed it, but he did not dare to respond to the other party's words.

Just as there are differences in the levels of spiritual secrets, the same is true in the realm of true disaster, but he never expected the gap to be so huge. The saint's only trace of magic thought made it almost impossible for him to resist.

Naturally, he did not dare to respond to his master's disrespectful words.

Whether it was his master or the saint, they were destined to be superior to him in the strict hierarchy of the Holy Church.

"But I can see that this woman is getting anxious. Does it look like the Jingzhou incident is true?"

Su Changsheng was talking to himself, but Ji Xing was still kneeling on the ground in silence.

"However, Zhen'er did a good thing for me..."

Talking to himself, the White Lotus Saint laughed again:

"I don't need trash among my men. Zhan Li, this trash, has tarnished the reputation of my generals. It's better for him to die, hahaha."

"It's a pity. If that jerk Zhan Li really breaks through the True Evil, I'll be missing a big ingredient to complete my Vacuum Tribulation Sutra..."

Ji Xing listened silently. Although his master described the Saint's wife as having a strong will, he knew that his master's character was even more extreme.

It was so extreme that the two saints in the church had equal status and separate powers, but this master had just joined the church and was already thinking of swallowing up everything of the saint, without even trying to hide it.

Ji Xing opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Su Changsheng waving his hand:

"Don't worry. Although I am somewhat unwilling to accept this, I have to admit that I am not as good as Zhen'er in terms of accumulation."

"If there is enough accumulation, why would there be such trouble?"

"However, now is the time when I must accumulate some knowledge, and Zhen'er has given me a precious opportunity..."

"Ji Xing, please go to Jingzhou and offer everything there to this Holy Son."

Hearing the words of the White Lotus Saint, Ji Xing was stunned, and then said: "But Jingzhou is the Saint..."

"It doesn't matter. I've already convinced the old guys in the sect... Jingzhou was founded with resources provided by the sect. Since Zhen'er did a poor job, naturally someone else will have to make up for it."

"After all, I've given her a chance, and she didn't take it, so this opportunity is mine."

The meaning of Su Changsheng's words was very clear. He wanted to pick the peaches that Bai Zhener had carefully planned for Jingzhou and were about to harvest.

Moreover, he has already persuaded most of the elders in the church who were left behind by the Holy Lord to assist the two saints when he ascended to heaven.

"Oh right, Yin Cang Blood Demon... Lan Can, let's recruit these two guys."

"If you don't obey... you will be killed directly."

PS: I had something to do today, so I’m sorry for the late update.
