The stolen magic is a bit magical

Lin Xiaosu picked up the wine pot and poured a cup for Li Chunshui: "Palace Master Li, I cannot give you a false sense of optimism or deceive you into leaving Kun Cang. I will present the truth to you and do my best to be honest!"

Li Chunshui sighed softly: "I have been in Kun Cang for nearly a thousand years. In this thousand years, the world's imperial ambitions and hegemonies have changed like a revolving lantern. I have never thought of coming out of the mountain to fight, simply because we both believe that the rise and fall of human affairs over a thousand years is the norm, and it is also the norm to observe with a detached eye on the path of cultivation."

"As far as I know, most cultivators have this mindset: they don't care who rules the world, it's irrelevant to the ups and downs on their cultivation path," Lin Xiaosu said. "However, this time is different! This time it's an invasion from another realm! This time it's a clash of civilizations!"

Li Chunshui said, "Are the people unwilling to give up their current stability?"

"Absolutely not!"

"Have the rulers also made up their minds to fight to the death?"

"Yes! At least in the Great Xia Kingdom, yes!"

"For the sake of a belief in one's heart, one would just fly like a moth to a flame... is that it?" Li Chunshui sighed softly.

"Actually, that's not entirely true!" Lin Xiaosu said. "If things go well, we have a chance to turn the tables on the invaders."

"A chance?" Li Chunshui's eyes lit up slightly.

"Firstly, although modern society is in the Dharma-ending Age, it still possesses technology. Under missiles, even those at the Enlightenment Realm can be reduced to ashes!" Lin Xiaosu held up one finger.

Li Chunshui nodded slightly: "I have personally witnessed the terror of the Hidden Dragon Missile. If the missile's power were increased several times, killing someone at the Enlightenment Realm would not be difficult. What about the second point?"

"Secondly, we don't need to worry about other countries. We only need to worry about the Great Xia Kingdom. There are only three gaps in the Great Xia Kingdom at this stage. We don't even need to use missiles or other powerful weapons. The formation alone is enough to trap and kill a large number of Enlightenment Realm giants."

Li Chunshui's eyes lit up: "A formation? Even more advanced than the formation that trapped and killed the Xiaoyao Palace that day?"

"When we entered Kun Cang that day, our main purpose was to investigate. We didn't intend to reduce the number of sects in Kun Cang. The formation that trapped and killed Xiaoyao Palace was generally mild, just a trapping formation. Why should we show mercy to these foreign villains who have entered our territory? I will show them what it means to be ruthless in the way of formations!"

Li Chunshui's heart raced: "Is there a third one?"

"Thirdly, we have a basic theory: the first batch of people or beasts that came out were generally low-level. The real experts need to wait until the rules of the Heavenly Dao are fully repaired before they can come out. Each generation does its own thing. We have caught up with a good time. In theory, we can kill these low-level transgressors."

Li Chunshui's mind, which had already strayed off course, slowly returned to its chest.

Ding Ruoshui saw him leading her master there with her own eyes, and she didn't know what to feel.

She suspected her scoundrel husband was lying, but she had no proof, and even if she did, she wouldn't say anything...

"Fourth!" Lin Xiaosu held up his fourth finger: "The Qianlong sect operates on the principle that those who contribute benefit. This time, when we enter Kuncang, which sects are willing to fight for the Great Xia? The Great Xia will surely reward them."

"for example?"

“Beasts that cross boundaries possess elemental crystals, and people that cross boundaries possess otherworldly treasures. These can all be distributed among the participants. Furthermore, within this opened folded space, participating sects can also demarcate their territory and establish sects in our own realm.”

Li Chunshui was tempted...

Kuncang is, in fact, a large prison.

Especially when Kunming and Cangzhou were sealed off, the prison's characteristics became fully apparent.

If the external world's spiritual energy were to recover and become suitable for those in the Enlightenment Realm, who wouldn't want to establish a sect in that world?

The Great Xia Dynasty wouldn't allow them to establish a sect there without any reason, but if they participated in this great war as comrades-in-arms, they could indeed establish a sect outside the Great Xia Dynasty...

The expansion and flourishing of the sect is a deep-seated desire in the hearts of every sect leader.

Li Chunshui was almost completely moved.

Lin Xiaosu smiled: "Besides these, I can also represent myself to reach some consensus with these sects, such as jointly studying formations and sharing the essence of formations that I obtained from the 'Zhou Tian Formation Method' and the 'Nine Forms of Qiankun' recorded in the 'Qiankun Breaking Formation Diagram' with my comrades."

Li Chunshui's heart, which had rarely beat intensely in the past thousand years, suddenly pounded fiercely.

As practitioners, who wouldn't be moved by the most mysterious formations on the path of cultivation?
As the leader of a sect, who wouldn't want to possess a protective mountain formation?
Lin Xiaosu's cultivation level was completely beneath the notice of the Enlightenment Realm giants, but his array formations had already stirred up a bloodbath in Kun Cang.

Now, he is willing to share his knowledge of formations with his comrades!

This is the real blow of the day; just one strike and Li Chunshui will not miss it.

“On behalf of Chunshui Palace, I accept!” Li Chunshui replied with nine words.

Lin Xiaosu smiled.

"I can also discuss this with the Palace Master of Li Palace Road and the Flower Venerable of Sheng Hua Valley, and tell them everything you have said!"

Lin Xiaosu said, "Thank you, Palace Master."

Li Chunshui took a deep breath and said, "But Young Master Lin, there is something you must know."

"Please speak, Your Highness."

"Our three sects are currently in an extremely awkward situation in Kun Cang. Nineteen out of ten disciples who leave the mountain do not return! If all the high-ranking members of our three sects were to leave, our mountain gates would be breached by powerful figures in the blink of an eye."

Lin Xiaosu's smile remained unchanged: "I had already anticipated this, which is why I entered Kuncang twice!"

"What...do you intend to do?"

"I must resolve Kuncang's rear concerns before the main army marches out of Kuncang!"

"How...how do we solve this?" Li Chunshui's heart raced again.

"Today, I will go to Yin Yang Temple, and then to Luan Yun Tian, ​​to give these two former top sects a choice."

"What if... what if they don't choose the option you gave them? What if they have their own choice?" Li Chunshui's eyes flickered slightly as he casually posed the question.

The question was mild, but the meaning was quite clear.

If you, Lin Xiaosu, were to join the Yin-Yang Temple and the Chaotic Cloud Heaven, why should anyone listen to your choice? Wouldn't it be more obvious if they simply slapped you to death, thus demonstrating their own decision?

Lin Xiaosu smiled: "Those who listen to advice will become comrades-in-arms, and those who don't, I don't mind using some means."

"confident?"

"rest assured!"

Li Chunshui asked, "Do you need my personal protection?" "No! Not even!" Lin Xiaosu replied, "In these critical times, the Palace Master should remain in Chunshui Hall to prevent the enemy from having any opportunity to take advantage!"

Li Chunshui pondered for a long time, then gently raised his hand: "This is my communication talisman. If there is any crisis, crush it at any time."

"Thank you!"

“The situation is urgent, and Ruoshui also needs to enter the Reverse Water Pool. You two should say goodbye.” Li Chunshui stood up gracefully and left Chunshui Main Hall.

Outside the hall, the north wind blows.

Outside the mountains, the lake waters rippled.

Li Chunshui stood quietly in front of the main hall, letting her mind gradually clear.

She seemed to realize that she had been misled. What he said seemed to be somewhat evasive. However, after thinking it over, she still felt that, in terms of reason, public and private interests, the current situation, and the future, this was the right choice to make.

After a long while, she finally let out a soft sigh. Oh well, even if this kid is just making empty promises and trying to trick the Spring Water Palace into participating in the war, so what if she falls for his trick once?
After all, this is the righteous path, protecting all living beings...

In the main hall of Chunshui, Ding Ruoshui looked at him quietly, a faint smile appearing on her lips. A voice entered his ear: "Tell me, are you trying to fool my master?"

"That's right!"

"What audacity! Daring to deceive a master of the Enlightenment Realm, and even daring to admit it in front of the master's direct disciple."

Lin Xiaosu pouted: "So what if I'm your direct disciple? You're still my dear little wife. I absolutely don't believe you would stab me in the back."

Ding Ruoshui rolled her eyes at him: "The moment you uttered the words 'little wife,' I really wanted to stab you... Never mind, little husband, take care of yourself!"

"Ok!"

"If you encounter danger, crush the communication talisman. Don't be stubborn!"

"Ok!"

"Don't mess around with women in Kunming and Cangzhou."

"Cough... I'll talk about it again!"

Ding Ruoshui closed her lips and bit his lip, making Lin Xiaosu jump...

Ding Ruoshui raised her fist, gestured towards his forehead, and then kicked him in the waist...

Lin Xiaosu was kicked out by her.

Li Chunshui outside smiled and waved her hand gently. A female elder appeared before her and bowed, "Palace Master, what are your orders?"

“Send Ruoshui into the Reverse Stream Pool.”

"Yes!"

With a wave of his hand and a flourish of his sleeve, the elder led Ding Ruoshui away.

Lin Xiaosu bowed slightly: "Farewell, Palace Master."

"See you later."

"Until we meet again!" Lin Xiaosu stood up and rushed down from the Chunshui Main Hall.

In a short while, we arrived at the Spring Water Pavilion.

On the other side of the pavilion, a beautiful boat was about to dock when it suddenly stopped.

A curtain on the boat was drawn.

The moment the curtains were drawn, Lin Xiaosu saw the person inside.

This person was Li Bingxin, Li Chunshui's only daughter.

Li Bingxin also saw him.

Avoid it directly.

Lin Xiaosu smiled slightly in her direction, took a step, and went upstream along the river.

Kuncang is actually not very big; it's just a small area of ​​about 500 li in circumference.

Therefore, it's not always necessary to take a boat when going out.

For Lin Xiaosu, wandering the world and measuring the Kunlun Mountains with his own feet is also a kind of fun.

Didn't someone say that?

Every man has a dream of wandering the martial arts world.

In modern society, even if one cannot walk the path of the martial arts world, taking a stroll in Kunming and Cangzhou is also a kind of manly mentality.

Lin Xiaosu then left!

What he didn't notice was...

At the summit of the mountain, a bird took flight, and two old men watched him silently.

A strong mountain wind blew, but the two elderly people's hair strangely hung down behind their heads without fluttering at all.

This unusual behavior itself is a form of publicity, a publicity of their extraordinary level of cultivation.

Yes, they are the top figures in the second tier of Kun Cang, from Tianyan Palace.

Zheng Lingyun, the second elder of Tianyan Palace.

Zheng Tuo, the fourth elder of Tianyan Palace. (End of this chapter)
