Chapter 150 Patience
On the top of the mountain, a large hall stands. Although it looks quite impressive and large in scale, it is poorly decorated and of low standard. There is no large-scale development around the mountain, and the people in the sect are almost concentrated on this mountain. Looking around, the mountain is densely packed with people, with countless small houses standing on it, and one mountain wall is full of caves. The density is so dense that it is overcrowded for practitioners.
To the north of the mountain, there is a huge wall protecting the mountain. The wall is about a hundred feet high and is made of an extremely rare type of star rock. Each piece of star rock is as big as a millstone and is covered with formations. It surrounds most of the mountain.
Tang Jie could see clearly that they were building a protective formation. After the Xingyao Sect came here, everything had to start from scratch. The ten thousand-year foundation was lost. Not only the resources were lost, but also the most fundamental and core defensive formation was lost. So after coming here, everything has to start again. Since the defensive formation involves the survival of the foundation, it often takes thousands of years to build, so it is not surprising that it has been built until now. It's just that the defensive formation is usually completed in a supplementary way, which makes it play a certain role even in the early stages.
The formation built by Xingyaomen this time is obviously different. It is obviously some kind of long-term project and will not have any effect until it is completed.
Tang Jie only thought for a moment and realized what was going on.
"Hongmeng Catastrophe! This is the defensive formation built for the Hongmeng Catastrophe." Tang Jie blurted out.
The Xingyao Sect is built on the edge of the Endless Demon Abyss. It is conceivable that once the Hongmeng Catastrophe breaks out, the Xingyao Sect will definitely bear the brunt.
From the original rear sect to the frontline sect, one can imagine what happened to the Xingyao Sect. In order to survive, they had to try their best, and this formation was one of their means of self-protection.
Realizing this, Tang Jie knew that it was probably not a coincidence that the Xingyao Sect would appear here.
He was angry in his heart and looked straight at Xingyao falling in front of the door.
When some Xingyao Sect disciples saw someone falling, they shouted together: "Who broke into our Xingyao Sect?"
There was a hint of fear in his voice, but he still had the demeanor that he once had at the national level.
Tang Jie said in a deep voice: "Your ancestor's friend, Tang Jie is here to visit."
Hearing this, everyone knew that the person coming was a friend, not an enemy, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
The next moment Huang Wuji's voice came from the main hall: "Little friend Tang Jie, you are finally here, please come in. I didn't expect that after not seeing each other for more than two hundred years, my little friend has become an immortal. It is really gratifying and congratulatory."
Tang Jie's body flashed,
Appeared directly in the main hall.
Huang Wuji was sitting high in the hall. Although he was still the Earth Immortal, his once chic and elegant demeanor had been reduced a lot, and his face was even more sad.
Tang Jie cupped his hands and said, "I've met the Master. It's so hard for me to find him."
Huang Wuji had a bitter look on his face: "What else is there to look for? I am an ominous person now, and anyone who comes close will be unlucky. Why do you come to look for me again?"
"Abandoned by fate" Tang Jie understood the meaning of these words: "But what's up with Qi Tianzong?"
"You guessed it too." Huang Wuji nodded helplessly: "Who else could it be besides them?"
As Huang Wuji spoke, Tang Jie knew. Ever since they were separated in the royal court that day, Huang Wuji continued to wander around. This wandering lasted for another hundred years, and Xingyao's arrival was safe and sound. Until one day, Huang Wuji suddenly felt that the opportunity for his breakthrough might be found by returning to the ancient continent, so he returned to Xingyao Sect.
It didn't matter this time, Xingyao Sect started to have troubles one after another.
Huang Wuji didn't take it seriously at first, but gradually he realized something was wrong.
"I realized that this might not be a coincidence, but that someone was playing the cards of fate against me."
"Qitian Sect." Tang Jie said calmly. In the entire prehistoric continent, this sect is undoubtedly the one with the best grasp of destiny.
"It's them." Huang Wuji nodded and admitted.
Tang Jie sighed: "In the end, I got you involved."
Huang Wuji replied sternly: "My little friend, what you said is wrong. At first, the Qitian Sect Xingyao Sect was too domineering, occupying the precious land, trying to clear the place, and not taking the cultivators in their eyes. You and I were forced to kill people, and we were angry. There is nothing wrong with counterattacking without being implicated."
Tang Jie cupped his fists and said, "It's fine, Master, if you don't blame me. But I don't understand why they only used this method since they knew that the incident in the royal court was related to you."
Huang Wuji said: "I also analyzed this matter at the time, and I can only think of the following reasons. First, the Qitian Sect had no evidence at the time. They were able to find me, no need to ask, because it was the way of fate. The way of fate is unpredictable and bizarre. Although it is true, it is not understood by others. You can't just tell who is the murderer and who is the murderer, right? If this is true, doesn't it mean that everything in the world is decided by the people in the path of destiny? Therefore, although the path of destiny is Although there are many strategies, they are never suitable for governing the world. Qi Tianzong is the lord of the Southern Continent and has its own rules. They cannot break the rules they established, so they cannot touch me easily without evidence."
Tang Jie nodded: "The Tao of Destiny is indeed not suitable for use as evidence."
Huang Wuji continued: "In addition, another important reason is that they themselves are not sure. Although I don't understand fate, I also know that the path of fate is unpredictable and unpredictable. Even if there is occasional guidance, it is difficult to give specific content. More ambiguity and less certainty.”
Huang Wuji guessed wrong this time. The situation he mentioned is not unheard of, but it is mostly the performance of those who have not entered the Tao deeply. Once you have entered the Tao to a certain extent, the results will be mostly clear. But he made mistakes, but he turned out to be right. Because Tang Jie was there when he killed the immortals of the two places. Tang Jie was also a person in the path of destiny and had long used the power of destiny to cover up everything at that time. Therefore, even if someone with a more powerful destiny than him later deduces the truth, he can only come to a vague conclusion.
This was the reason why it was so troublesome to find Tang Jie when he had the image of Tang Jie. For someone like Xiang Huang Wuji, whose appearance has not even appeared in the eyes of the two sects, it is actually more difficult to confirm.
Without evidence, even he couldn't confirm that Huang Wuji was related to this, so Qi Tianzong couldn't act too openly and could only play with fate and act secretly.
But if that's all it is, it won't hurt the Xingyao Sect.
It can be regarded as bad luck for Xingyao Sect, or it may be the inevitable result of fate and abandonment. Finally one day, an elder from the Xingyao Sect had something to go on a trip. Because this person knew that the Xingyao Sect had been having a bad year recently, he was extra careful and even brought a Taoist soldier with him. As expected, on the way back, they encountered a big demon blocking the way. After a fierce battle, they sacrificed their Taoist soldiers to kill the opponent.
But what he never expected was that the Taoist weapon he used was the jade ruler that Huang Wuji obtained from the Royal Court of All Realms that day.
When Tang Jie and he killed the two Earth Immortal Queens, they each obtained a pseudo-Taoist weapon. Among them, the Thunderbolt Hammer belonged to Tang Jie. Later, Tang Jie transferred it to the Xiyue Sect, and the Heavenly Ruler was given to Huang Wuji. . Although Huang Wuji had ordered not to use this thing after putting it away, all instructions would fade away under the erosion of time. Hundreds of years have passed, and the ancestor cannot come out of seclusion. Wouldn't it be a pity to leave a good Taoist soldier unused?
With this idea in mind, the Xingyao Sect elder took out the measuring ruler.
As soon as this object was taken, Qitian Sect immediately felt a reaction.
What was once suspicion immediately turned into confirmation, and the methods became different.
"Not long after that, an Earth Immortal came to the Qitian Sect. I fought with him, but in the end I was no match and was defeated by him. The man didn't kill me, he just took away the measuring ruler and left."
"He didn't kill you? Why?"
Huang Wuji shook his head: "I don't know what to say about preserving strength to resist the Hongmeng catastrophe. Humph, who would believe such nonsense? I was seriously injured at the time, and the Bone Sect came to kill them not long after. Not only did they bring the center of his faction There are important treasures, and some mysterious masters are secretly spying on them. I know that most of them were assisted by people from the Qitian Sect. The sect was destined to be ruined, so they abandoned the sect and left. Only then were they able to preserve the vitality of the Xingyao Sect. However, not long after that, I received The Qitian Sect decreed that our Xingyao Sect has lost its foundation, so we chose a new place for our Xingyao Sect to establish its foundation."
"Is this here?"
"Exactly." Huang Wuji said with a bitter smile: "Placing us here in the Endless Demonic Abyss is to make us cannon fodder to resist the Hongmeng catastrophe. In this way, Qitian Sect will destroy us without leaving any reason to say anything. It’s very thoughtful.”
"But it will have to wait until the Hongmeng Catastrophe to destroy it." Tang Jie said lightly.
Huang Wuji was stunned: "What do you mean, little friend?"
"It's nothing, I just feel that Qitian Sect is very patient. If it were me, I would not choose such a time-consuming method." Tang Jie replied: "Even if you want to cherish the feathers, leave no excuses, and solve a sect, you can still solve it faster and more quickly." It’s a labor-saving method. For example, if we arrange a few more sects such as the Bone Sect, and it’s all over, wouldn’t it be clean?”
Huang Wuji's heart trembled: "You mean they still have a plan? Then why are they so troublesome?"
Tang Jie had stood up and looked outside the hall.
There was a trace of solemnity on his face: "Why? Of course you are waiting for me. What a scheming, good means, and so patient! In order to deal with me, it's a shame you waited so long."
As Tang Jie spoke these words, thunder exploded in the distance.
The storm is blowing, and dark clouds are rolling in.
A large pale golden hand broke out of the clouds and grabbed Tang Jie.
