Instead of being passive in defense, it is better to take the initiative to attack.
Xu Qing faintly feels that the Jiuli World might be related to the "Jiazi Calamity" mentioned in the bronze mirror, and through the Demon King Protector, he has learned that the cultivation resources in the Jiuli World are far more abundant than those in his current Pure Yang Realm.
Moreover, the place where the Demon King Protector arrived was just the Three Yang Level Black Water State.
According to legend, the Jiuli Territory controlled by the Jiuli Tribe at the Nine Yang Level is truly a land of natural treasures, comparable to the legendary Immortal Realm.
On one hand, he orders the Demon King Protector to infiltrate the Black Water State, disguise as a barbarian, and understand the customs and culture of the Black Water State's barbarians.
On the other hand, Xu Qing plans to return to the Great Yu Dynasty first.
He plans to collect intelligence through the Demon King Protector, and then cultivate a batch of Immortal Sect Disciples to explore the Jiuli World through this intelligence.
The loyalty of true disciples who can enter the Immortal Sect naturally requires no elaborate explanation.
…
…
Capital, somewhere in the West Mountain.
A group of true disciples who have passed the Immortal Sect exam came to this place.
They couldn't hide the joy on their faces.
Because this trip to the West Mountain is to listen to Xu Liushou's teachings.
This is indeed the number one person of the current era.
Moreover, they have long heard of Xu Liushou's feat of traversing the stars to reach Ying Huo Star.
This matter sounds truly incredible.
Due to political correctness, the Great Yu Dynasty did not promote the fact that the old demon of Black Mountain traversed the stars to Ying Huo Star. The current official stance is that Xu Liushou is the first being in history to set foot on Ying Huo Star.
What?
The Buddhist sect says there's a Great Leiyin Temple on Ying Huo Star? Shakyamuni has long set foot on Ying Huo.
Everyone knows the Buddhist sect likes to boast.
If you keep arguing, some will definitely suspect you have ulterior motives!
In short, people of the Great Yu Dynasty, whether with ulterior motives or not, love to create gods.
And to some, having Xu Liushou as a "god" on the shrine is quite a good thing.
Xu Qing doesn't like this, but he can't stop it.
Because most people subconsciously follow this trend.
If you refuse, they might think you're being modest.
Just like some generals draped in yellow robes by their subordinates, and at the end saying, "You all really put me in a tough spot."
Xu Qing is very aware that this is human nature; one can only adapt to the situation.
Changing human nature is far more difficult than changing the landscape.
The basic structure is like this, what else can you do, just make do.
Once the Immortal Sect disciples are assembled.
Xu Qing wasted no time, straightforwardly stated his purpose.
He revealed the content of his teachings, disappointing the disciples.
Because Xu Qing wasn't discussing cultivation, but rather an unknown barbarian custom, requiring them to learn and integrate.
Even with Heavenly Demon Skill interpretations and audiovisual teaching.
These disciples internally found little interest.
Fortunately, they aren't ordinary people; learning such things hardly consumes any effort.
Xu Qing also knows this, so he just teaches.
If they truly can't learn at all.
Heh, the teacher might not know who excels, but whoever lags would be in trouble!
Xu Qing's teaching content is constantly updated with information from the Demon King Protector.
His teachings became more profound and specific.
Naturally, some disciples discovered that this barbarian tribe clearly differs from those within their world.
The worldview of the Jiuli World started unfolding in their minds.
It's powerful yet barbaric.
Over there, Taoists were even considered evil demons to be hunted, which was truly outrageous.
Since they practice the Golden Core Right Method, they naturally favor Taoist beliefs internally.
Fortunately, the Great Yu Dynasty has the foundation laid by the old Emperor over decades of promoting the Dao, so the Golden Core Right Method of the Immortal Dynasty has popular support.
In fact, the Buddhist sect could integrate into the Great Yu Dynasty by actively lowering their posture, borrowing many elements from Taoist and Confucian traditions, incorporating them into Central Earth.
No choice, the academic competition within the Great Yu Dynasty is extremely fierce.
Every faction seizes the academic essence of others, then converts it into their own.
In this land, practicing fundamentalism has no market.
To succeed, one must take the path characteristic of the Great Yu Dynasty.
"After discussing these things, does anyone have insights?"
One disciple responded, "The place Xu Master described, though possessing powerful force, has crude and barbaric people, actions unrefined, not accepting civilized ways. The disciple speculates Master Xu intends to perform Holy Virtue by enlightening them."
The disciples nearby couldn't help but marvel, among fellow disciples, there's one who stands out.
This flattery!
Xu Qing couldn't help but smile; this disciple is quite talented.
He nodded in agreement, "What's your name?"
"The disciple's surname is Wang, given name Huan."
"Which Huan?"
"The Huan as in 'completely renewed'.
"Alright, I've remembered you."
Actually, Xu Qing already knows the details of these disciples, even aware that he is Wang Gong's clan nephew.
As for why he asks, it's to show others.
By saying he remembers Wang Huan, he indicates his approval of Wang Huan's words.
Disciples below who grasp the situation should understand Xu Liushou's intention.
Even if we're to invade the Jiuli World, we must do it under the banner of civilization, rescuing the Jiuli World's barbarian populace, acting on the path of Holy Virtue enlightenment.
This is the difference between the Righteous Path and the Demon Path.
The Righteous Path pretends to be human in deeds; the Demon Path doesn't even bother pretending!
Essentially, it's about setting rules.
Even thieves have ethics!
Without rules, if everyone casually robs, before targeting external foes, internal factions would begin fighting.
Life passes swiftly like a fleeting horse shadow.
To spend the limited time on stars and the sea.
While Xu Qing trains, he also cooperates with Heavenly Spiritual Master, Gu Daoist, researching how to open a star route from the Jiuli World to return.
This involves understanding the essential operating principle of the Five-Colored Altar.
Without comprehending the Five Elements Divine Light, Xu Qing certainly can't grasp these concepts.
The foundation of the Five Elements Divine Light is the Five Elements Flow. The Five Elements Flow possesses the four realms of "Generation, Restriction, Control, Transformation"; Xu Qing currently masters the Life Realm. Reaching this level enables him to truly comprehend the intricacies of the Five-Colored Altar.
Shakyamuni's test for Xu Qing likely lies here.
Xu Qing has carefully analyzed, realizing Shakyamuni's shadow seems intending to do something concerning the Jiuli World with Xu Qing's help, and another matter is that Shakyamuni's shadow and the Great Leiyin Temple with those demons transformed into Arhats, where did they ultimately head to?
In his view, given the existence of Taixu Three Thousand Realms, worlds like Jiuli that enjoy warring surely aren't few.
Shakyamuni's shadow might have taken those demons to fight other worlds.
However, these matters don't require immediate consideration; with the bronze mirror's warning, the Jiazi Calamity will inevitably occur, and the source is likely in the Jiuli World.
Xu Qing's current plans all revolve around the Jiuli World.
He doesn't wish to foolishly wait for the Jiuli World to invade.
In Xu Qing's view, this is the Immortal Dynasty's battle to establish its nation, better to repel the enemy beyond the national borders.
Additionally, Xu Qing gathers the Great Scholars of the Immortal Dynasty, based on the intelligence he acquired, to assign identities to the disciples soon going to the Jiuli World.
Specifically, creating a narrative of a once-existing but now vanished Jiuli barbarian tribe.
In such matters, the Great Scholars are undoubtedly experts.
They are the best at crafting stories!
