Mount Song!
Mount Song was part of the Qiaoniu Mountain Range. The main mountain range was within Dengfeng and stretched for more than 60 kilometers. The central part of Songshan Mountain is bounded by Shaolin River, with Junji Peak in the middle, Taishi Mountain in the east and Shaoshi Mountain in the west. Songshan Mountain is its general name.
The architecture of Mount Song Sect was rather strict. In the middle was the meeting hall, with high eaves and fighting. The innermost part of the hall was filled with the rankings of the ancestors of the past generations. Behind it were five armchairs, all reserved for the five elders of Songyang.
The meeting hall was surrounded by the residences of the elders and disciples. The kitchen was on the far left.
Such an arrangement was beneficial for the sect disciples to protect the meeting hall in the best way possible. They would not allow the enemy to suddenly attack and disturb the rest of their ancestors.
The Five Elders of Songyang were powerful existences in Mount Song Sect!
At the same time, it was an old fellow from the same era as Cai Qingwei and the others. They were from the same era as Cai Qingwei, but most of their light was completely blocked!
It wasn't easy for Huashan Mountain to have internal strife. They saw an opportunity and set up a plan in advance to prepare for the harvest. However, they didn't expect that there would be no news from Huashan Mountain until now!
There was no good news. This was obviously a signal of failure!
The people they had arranged in Mount Hua had failed. Logically speaking, they had received the news before these people took action. There were only a few people on Mount Hua now, but they still failed?
Why?
This made Mount Song Sect suspicious!
"Damn it!"
At this moment, the anger of the Sect Leader of Mount Song could be heard from the meeting hall of Mount Song. He shouted," A bunch of trash, trash! Now, the Huashan Sect is in disarray. The Sword Sect is fighting with the Qi Sect, and even their Sect Leader, Ning Qingwei, has died in battle. And the people we sent can't do anything to Huashan? If this isn't nonsense, what is it?"
This person had a pair of eagle eyes and was one of the leaders of the righteous path-Daoist Songyang. His Great Songyang Palm was extremely powerful!
He and the Five Elders of Songyang formed the core of power in Mount Song Sect!
"Master, what happened? Didn't our people on Mount Song receive news that both the Mount Hua and Sword Qi sects were injured in the battle? Why…was there still no good news?”
A lean youth walked out and asked Daoist Songyang," Could it be that something has happened to Mount Hua? Didn't they receive news that most of the people on Mount Hua had died and the Qi Sect had won? The one who survived in the end was Yue Buqun? "A few years ago, when I went to pay my respects to the sect master of Mount Hua, I saw this person. There's nothing to be afraid of. Once he takes over, I'm afraid he'll be alone. Wouldn't the wealth controlled by Mount Hua be swallowed by us? "Using Huashan's accumulation to strengthen us is the greatest gain. We can also seize the connections, resources, and so on that Huashan has accumulated over the years. We can obtain great benefits. How can there still be no news?”
" Leng Chan, you're right. In order to seize the position of the leader of the Five Peaks, our Mount Song Sect has worked hard for so many years, but we still secretly provoked the dispute between the Huashan Sword Sect and the Qi Sect, but..."
The other five elders of Mount Song smiled bitterly." However, all news about Mount Hua has been cut off. The people we arranged for…are probably dead…"
" That's right. We used up a lot of energy to arrange for these people. Originally, this time... we were going to use it to harvest, but now..."
Another old man said bitterly!
"Sigh, I didn't expect…Huashan to still have a trump card? We don't know!"
The other old man's expression changed. He was extremely embarrassed and anxious!
This was the best result they could achieve by seizing the position of Mount Hua and taking all of Mount Hua's wealth. This would allow them to rise above the ruins of Mount Hua and become a colossus in a single leap. However, they did not expect that…there would still be no results until now!
"Is it…is it…Feng Qingyang?”
Zuo Lenchan was only in his twenties and was still a cunning old fox. He was shocked." Did he notice our Mount Song Sect's movements? " In Mount Hua now, only this Elder of the Sword Sect can threaten our position. If he makes a move, it will be a big problem. No one in our Mount Song Sect is his match. The Nine Swords Beyond the Swords is unpredictable…"
His martial arts had yet to reach great success, so he was naturally very wary of the Huashan Sect!
The Five Elders of Mount Song smiled bitterly!
All they knew about Mount Hua now was that both the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect had suffered heavy losses after the battle. They had already ordered the outer sect disciples who had secretly sided with Mount Hua to rebel and seize the wealth of Mount Hua. However, there was no news at all, which made them anxious!
One had to know that in the current situation of the martial arts world, Shaolin and Wudang reigned supreme. The demonic sect had been dormant in recent years to accumulate vitality.
Other than that, the first sect of the Five Mountain Sword Sect was the Huashan Sect. Their strength was almost equivalent to the sum of the Song Mountain Sect, Heng Mountain Sect, Tai Mountain Sect, and Heng Mountain Sect. They suppressed the other sects so much that it was difficult for them to boast!
In addition, not long ago, the Huashan Sect had produced many experts. The Huashan Sect Master was proficient in the Purple Cloud Divine Art and had an extremely powerful internal energy. He was one of the three great masters of the orthodox path and was as famous as the Shaolin Sect Master and the Wudang Sect Master, Master Taixu.
For example, why did Shaolin Temple remain unwavering in its position as the number one sect for thousands of years, regardless of the changes in the wind and rain and the change of dynasties? Even when the Demonic Sect was at its most rampant, Shaolin Temple remained unmoved?
This was an advantage that the Shaolin Temple had that others could not compare to!
Firstly, the characteristics of Shaolin Temple's cultivation techniques. Their martial arts did not care about their aptitude. The most important thing was that hard work could make up for their incompetence. As long as he continued to practice step by step, after a decade or so, an elder level monk would at least be a first-class master in the martial arts world. What was even more terrifying was that such first-class masters would not disappear from Shaolin Temple for every generation. There would never be a lack of new talents. This also guaranteed that even if Shaolin Temple could not produce peerless masters, their overall strength would definitely be number one.
Secondly, Shaolin's 72 Ultimate Skills were not only powerful, but they also had a wide variety of skills that could meet the cultivation requirements of disciples with different aptitudes. Shaolin's seventy-two unique skills, sword, palm, knife, staff, internal, lightness, body, and body tempering techniques were all available. No matter how strange the aptitude of the disciples was, they could choose the most suitable cultivation method to cultivate, which would yield twice the result with half the effort.
Unlike the Five Mountains Sword Sect, where the word 'sword' was enough to seal the deal. Although sword techniques were divided into heavy sword, light sword, illusionary sword, and so on, they were all based on the same principle. Overall, they still focused on agility and technique. Therefore, Sword Sect could only choose smart disciples and quick-witted disciples. In this way, they would be rejecting a large group of disciples who might have unique potential in martial arts and inner force cultivation methods, causing the sect to take an unconventional path and lack accumulation.
Thirdly, the Shaolin Sect had official support and was rich. As the saying goes, the poor are good at literature and the rich are good at martial arts. The most basic foundation of martial arts is to keep up with nutrition. Only with sufficient nutrition can one have the strength to cultivate. This principle could be seen from the sects and forces in the current Jianghu.
Shaolin had a large amount of land bestowed by the imperial court. The ten thousand hectares of fertile land at the foot of Mount Song was the land of the monks of Shaolin. These fields did not need to pay taxes and were quite fertile. As long as they were handed over to the tenants to cultivate, the monks of Shaolin Temple could cultivate every day and harvest a large amount of grain at the end of the year.
In addition, Shaolin Temple was the ancestral court of Zen. There were countless Buddhists in the country. Each person offered a little money, which was enough to feed the disciples of Shaolin Temple for decades. It was precisely because there was no need to worry about money that the people of Shaolin Temple ignored worldly matters and cultivated diligently, so their cultivation would advance.
The second-ranked Wudang Sect was also extremely rich. Like Shaolin, they had a large number of tax-free fields and tributes from their believers. They ignored the secular world and focused on improving their cultivation every day. This allowed Wudang Sect to follow in the footsteps of Shaolin in less than a hundred years after its establishment and become the second sect. Their status was unshakable.
The third place was naturally the Sun Moon Sect. Their greatest wealth came from selling illegal salt and smuggling ironware. Of course, there were also tributes from some local chieftains. In ancient times, salt and iron were monopolized. Since the Sun Moon Sect dared to have designs on these two businesses, it was no surprise that they became the third richest man after Shaolin and Wudang. It was not surprising that they could afford thousands of disciples.
Other than these three major sects, the other sects such as the Five Mountains Sword Sect, Qingcheng Sect, Divine Boxing Sect, Iron Sword Sect, Beggar's Sect, etc. all relied on escorting and opening shops to make a living. Some of the heroes in the forest even dared to do the bitter business of occupying the mountains. If they were not careful, they would be killed by the new young masters and rich second-generation heirs.
、
The Five Mountain Sword Sect was ranked below them. They had always wanted to rise up, but they had never had any chance. However, this time, the Mount Song Sect had finally seized this opportunity. Naturally, they were not willing to give it up!
