If the sect doesn't accept geniuses, they will become giants once they leave?

Chapter 328: Tianyin Demon Sect Crisis
Respecting the elderly and loving the young is a traditional virtue, but monks are mysterious beings whose age is difficult to distinguish.

Some people look old, but compared to the average age of monks, they are just little kids.

Some people look young, but they may be old enough to be someone else's ancestors.

So in this situation, no monk would use respecting the elderly and loving the young as an excuse.

But it didn’t say no.

Hong Muer looks to be about fourteen years old, three years younger than Yao Mengyi. Jian Xin and the other two surrounded Hong Muer like this, and it looked like they were bullying a child.

And Hong Muer is a real centenarian, and is now being bullied by this group of young people.

Zhuge Moer felt a toothache, and what made Zhuge Moer's toothache even more painful was that the other two people looked at her as if it was a matter of course, waiting for her to solve the problem in front of them.

"Hey Miss Hong, look at what you're saying. We just wanted to say hello," Zhuge Moer groaned, bending down and patting Hong Muer's shoulder. "My name is Zhuge Moer, and I'm Master's fifth disciple. This is Master's eldest disciple, Jian Xin, and this is..."

"I'm a handyman in Tianxu Tower!" Yao Mengyi raised her hand.

She had only been a princess for a few days and was usually very low-key, rarely showing up in public, but perhaps the candidate for the Saint of the Tianyin Demon Sect in front of her knew her name.

"Miss Hong, I see you're a straightforward person, so I won't beat around the bush."

After hearing this, Hong Muer was no longer so conflicted.

She doesn't like to beat around the bush.

"Are you from the Tianyin Demon Sect planning something related to the reincarnation of immortals?"

Hong Muer suddenly felt that it was not impossible to take some detours, at least she still had the chance to pretend to be stupid.

Although Hong Muer, as a candidate for the Saint, has a broken record of rituals and music, and is completely indifferent to matters, she still knows what a Saint should know.

If someone else had asked the same question, Hong Muer would have already considered killing the person to silence him, but now the person asking the question was Li Yanmo's apprentice, so it seemed that she was destined to be silenced, and the only option left was to confess and receive leniency.

However, Zhuge Moer still planned to struggle.

"Didn't your master tell you?"

Zhuge Moer's eyes gleamed, and she secretly said, "As expected." However, on the surface, she remained nonchalant, even questioning, "Could it be that my master only knew about those things because Miss Hong confessed to him?"

Hong Muer grunted, unable to refute for a moment.

Without giving Hong Muer a chance to think, Zhuge Moer immediately pursued, "Miss Hong, this is not a question of tacit understanding between you and me, but a question of sincerity."

"Why do you think the master brought you in front of us and then deliberately avoided us?"

Zhuge Moer firmly believed that Li Yanmo brought Hong Muer, the candidate for the saint, to them as a hint and test of them. The answer lay with Hong Muer, and it depended on whether they had the ability to dig it out.

Zhuge Moer had already betrayed Li Yan's trust for the last time, so naturally he didn't want to betray him again.

What's more, Li Yanmo was almost sticking the answer in her face. If she still couldn't solve it, Zhuge Moer would be too embarrassed to face anyone.

Faced with Zhuge Moer's continuous attacks, Hong Muer felt dizzy.

This matter must not be told to anyone.

But the problem was that Li Yanmo knew about it. Not only did he know, he had also given them another more reliable and practical track for the Tianyin Demon Sect in advance. Now that the Supreme Golden Core was in her foundation-building platform, why should she doubt it?

"You won't tell anyone about this, right?"

"Miss Hong, this is a question of sincerity," Zhuge Moer emphasized.

Hong Muer moved her mouth, and after a few seconds of silence, she scratched her hair in annoyance, "Okay, okay - actually, this is related to the Taoist lineage of the Tianyin Demon Sect."

"In fact, the Tianyin Demon Sect is a super sect that was secretly established by the Tianmo Sect during the Great Wilderness period." Yao Mengyi opened her mouth wide, while Jian Xin and Zhuge Moer looked calm as if they had already known this.

One is an interview, and the other requires strong psychological qualities.

Seeing Jian Xin and Zhuge Moer's reactions, Hong Muer felt relieved.

People were not surprised at all. It was obvious that they had known about it for a long time, so her behavior was not considered a leak.

As for Yao Mengyi...

It's normal for a handyman in Tianxu Tower not to know about it, and there's no need to worry about it being spread out.

"As you know, Emperor Yu sent down the Dao Pillar, completely severing the Dao tradition of cultivation in the Great Wilderness. If one cannot adapt to the new system established by the Dao Pillar, no matter how strong one's foundation is, it will gradually disappear over time."

"Many ancient sects were destroyed in this way."

"There are also some sects that are trying to steal the truth and use the power of the Dao Pillar to transform themselves."

"But the method of stealing the sky and replacing the day requires sacrificing immortals—"

Zhuge Moer narrowed his eyes slightly, realizing a possibility.

Yao Mengyi covered her mouth and screamed again.

"In the Great Wilderness, there was no unified cultivation system of the Dao Pillar. The Dao of a sect and its source was a small world nurtured by an immortal."

"The immortals open their own small worlds and absorb the inhabitants of the great world. Through these inhabitants of the great world, they spread and develop their own Taoism, and become more closely integrated with the great Dao of the great world."

"The closer the immortal is to the Great Dao, the stronger they become, and the stronger their disciples will become accordingly."

"During this process, the immortal's small world will separate from the immortal. When the small world is completely integrated with the great universe, the immortal will completely transcend, enter the great way, and become a true immortal. The Taoism nurtured by the immortal after transcendence will become one of the eternal and unchanging great ways of the great universe, and the sect will prosper forever."

"If we can use this method to give birth to a second immortal, the sect's lineage will be even more powerful."

"This is the reason why a sect can be king, and the Heavenly Demon Sect is one of them. At that time, the Heavenly Demon Sect had six immortals and was invincible in the world."

Hong Muer grinned, but she didn't feel proud of it. She even looked distressed.

"Until the first Emperor Yu sent down the Dao Pillar, five of the six immortals in the sect were killed. In order to protect the Tianmo Dao lineage, the last immortal of the Tianmo Sect used the method of stealing the sky and replacing the day."

"Pull up the Five Immortals and the small world he nurtured, which has long been connected to the great universe. Use the method of the Sixth Heaven to wrap it into a star and raise it into the sky, as far away as possible from the earth affected by the Dao Pillar."

"Since then, the Heavenly Demon Sect has become the Heavenly Sound Demon Sect. The "Heaven" in the "Heavenly Sound" refers to the star called the Sixth Heaven."

"Based on the cultivation system established by the Dao Pillar, we mixed in the Heavenly Demon Dao from the Sixth Heaven to steal the truth."

Zhuge Moer nodded, "It's indeed a good idea, but it's a stupid one."

Hong Muer wasn't angry, and even nodded in approval. "While it protected the Daoist lineage, it also completely tied the Tianyin Demon Sect to that Sixth Heaven star."

"Now that the Great Thousand World is under the influence of the Dao Pillar, even if one becomes an immortal, one cannot separate from the small world and truly transcend and become an immortal like in the Great Wilderness period."

"For the sects after Dayu, this is not a problem. Their Taoism is built on the Tao Pillar. As their Taoism continues, the influence of the Tao Pillar on the universe will increase, and their Taoism will become stronger."

"But it is fatal to a sect that stole the world and replaced the day. The Dao lineage that stole the world and replaced the day cannot be continued by the Dao Pillar."

"If we just stick to our old ways, it's still okay..."

Hong Muer paused and sighed helplessly.

"The problem is, that star...the Sixth Heaven is falling towards the Tianyin Demon Sect."
