Chapter 818: Demon-Slaying Conference, Demon-Slaying Alliance
The elder of the Sword God Sect carefully put away the sword box. This box was made of purple gold wood and had a faint wood fragrance. It was also an extraordinary thing. Zhou Baizheng, Wei Sanxiang, and Li Changxiao came just to see the sword. After appreciating its style, they wisely left the inner hall.
Today's actions were indeed more or less offensive, but Zhou Baizheng was courteous and had a good reputation in the martial arts world. People knew that he only acted out of kindness, so no one pursued the matter.
After the three of them left, the elders continued their discussion. They discussed many matters of the day. The Demon-Slaying Conference was so grand that all the heroes in the world responded to the call and rushed to it. The personnel arrangements and order maintenance behind the scenes were a huge workload. As the Demon-Slaying Conference was getting closer, these tasks were more urgent.
On the way back, Zhou Baizheng and Wei Sanxiang were both obsessed with the magic sword and discussed the rumors about it, thinking it was an unforgettable and interesting story. The two of them were quite experienced and could really talk about it. Wei Sanxiang even guessed the origin of the sword, saying that it was passed down from the hands of the immortals and Buddhas in the sky.
There is an old saying in the martial arts world. I don't know when it became popular, but all martial artists know it, which is: "Martial arts are passed down from the immortals." That is, martial arts are passed down from the immortals. The immortals left behind artifacts, which were forged and recast to become martial arts artifacts.
This statement is direct, concise and extremely accurate. Li Changxiao knew the second half of the sentence, "no need to imitate the immortals." Although the martial arts are derived from the immortals, there is no need to stick to it. Moreover, because it has its own style, it can take another path. The immortal path has been cut off, and imitating the immortal path is to cut off one's own path and waste one's energy.
The "Water Calling Sword" was indeed passed down from the immortal world. It was praised as one of the ten great immortal swords. It was once in the hands of the Water Calling Sword Immortal, killing immortals, beheading Buddhas, destroying all evils, and killing all demons. It was extremely glorious. Now that it has fallen into the hands of a warrior, although it is not as good as before, it can be said to have regained its glory.
Just now, the precious sword trembled slightly. It was indeed a spirit of the divine sword, wanting to choose a wise master again. The divine sword exuded a flattering intention, but Li Changxiao did not accept it and ignored the divine sword's request.
It's not that he is so arrogant that he doesn't like the magic sword. If Li Changxiao puts the "Water Calling Sword" into the dream space, it will be nourished by spiritual energy. After a few years, the glory of the magic sword will be fully restored, and Li Changxiao can also add another weapon. But the "Water Calling Sword" has another name, called "Erosion Dream". This sword feeds on dreams and continues to grow. Li Changxiao has entered the fusion stage and has a high level of cultivation. He is not afraid of a long sword. But he has always been a person who follows his heart. If he doesn't like something, even if it is a magic sword, he will not pay much attention to it.
He felt that the Water Calling Sword was too sharp, like a rich young man with a perverse and eccentric temperament. It would be offensive to ordinary people to look at it. In comparison, his Qingping Sword was more like an old farmer who worked hard and was willing to do everything silently. It was never dazzling, but it was more in line with Li Changxiao's taste and more in tune with him.
……
Four days later, the Demon-Discussing Conference officially began. In the square of Baizhou City, more than a thousand large red round tables were set up, with a high platform in the middle.
All the famous and promising people in the world, who were outstanding in martial arts, sat down at the table. Looking around, there was not a single layman. The immortal way disappeared, the heavenly way flourished in the country, and the martial arts flourished among the people. The two were not as good as the incense way and the heavenly way, and it was difficult for them to coexist.
Li Changxiao saw that in the future, the human race would probably develop in two ways: the Heavenly Secret Dao and the Warriors. Although the bottleneck of the Warriors lasted for a long time, their use in prolonging life was real and would never be completely wiped out.
Li Changxiao, Zhou Baizheng, and Wei Sanxiang sat at the same table. Seeing the opening of the meeting, wine and meat came up one after another. The Sword God Sect, Ghost Blade Sect, Xuanyi Sect, etc., who jointly led the group, sat in front of the group of heroes. The leaders of each sect were over 200 years old. But their eyes were bright, their backs were straight, and their lifespan was still sufficient, as if they had just reached middle age.
He saluted the heroes one by one, and then went straight to the point, informing the heroes of the demon-eliminating matters. He also used the demon-eliminating matter as an excuse to establish a "demon-eliminating alliance" to maintain peace in the world in the future, so that no more demons would commit crimes without anyone to control them.
Soon, all the major sects recommended candidates, but they passed the buck to each other. The Ghost Blade Sect recommended the Xuanyi Sect, and the Sword God Sect recommended the Ghost Blade Sect... The heroes knew all about the power game, but no one pointed it out. However, they also felt that there should be a leader to lead the martial arts world, which would be more conducive to stability.
At present, the most powerful and prestigious sects in the martial arts world are the Sword God Sect, Ghost Blade Sect, Xuanyi Sect, Five Elements Sect, Wanqi Peak, and Shennong Ridge. In fact, these six sects have all received the grace of Zhang Mo, and the martial arts they passed on are the most refined. They want to capture Zhang Mo, firstly to obtain Zhang Mo's magical skills and extend their lives. Secondly, they are afraid of Zhang Mo in their hearts. Among the martial artists in the world, she is the only one in a class of her own. Although other martial artists are strong, they can at least understand how much they are strong, but only why they are strong, why they are strong, and where they are strong.
Only Zhang Mo was incredibly strong, so strong that it was completely incomprehensible.
As it was difficult to decide on a leader, the six major sects changed their minds and made the six leaders all envoys of the Demon-Slaying Alliance. Among them, Liu Pingbu, the leader of Xuanyi Sect, was nearly 300 years old and the oldest. Everyone gave him a high position and made him the deputy leader of the Demon-Slaying Alliance, temporarily leading this Demon-Slaying Conference.
At one time, countless sects responded and joined the Demon-Slaying Alliance, which had a reputation that was second to none in the martial arts world. In order to stabilize people's hearts, Liu Pingbu told everyone that in order to capture the demon, he had devoted all the strength of the six major sects and had developed five kinds of magic weapons.
All we need to do is wait for the female devil to be defeated and capture her, and she will never be able to escape. After that, he took out one of the items and showed it to the public to calm people's hearts.
He took out a red and black rope and told everyone that this was a magic seal that could seal magic and evil power and specifically restrain evil spirits. The other four items were divine objects made by Zhang Mo, so he didn't show them much to avoid leaking the news.
Li Changxiao shook his head and sighed, thinking that this time, the heroes came prepared, and it was not certain whether Zhang Mo could escape this disaster. But on second thought...it was also a fun thing. Li Changxiao drank the fine wine and ate the delicious food at the banquet. Suddenly, he felt that he was so unkind and unfriendly.
But after thinking about it, he felt that this kind of meeting was interesting. The demon-killing banquet lasted for three days. On the fourth day, all the heroes went west together to fight the demon.
The six major sects had already found out everything. Zhang Mo moved to Dangmo Mountain a year ago and adopted two daughters from a farmer's home to take care of her daily food and clothing while she practiced in seclusion.
Zhou Baizheng was given three demon-fighting flags and gave one to Li Changxiao.
So, Li Changxiao walked in the crowd, holding the demon-killing flag and shouting demon-killing slogans. He had a smooth journey and arrived at the vicinity of Dangmo Mountain.
