Chapter 343 Chapter 343 Yuxu Palace
"It turns out that everything is due to the brother's good intentions. Thank you from the universe! Remember it in your heart!" Zhang Rongfang was bleeding in his heart, and saluted Ding Rui seriously.
"Why is this, junior brother?" Ding Rui shook his head and stepped forward to support Zhang Rongfang, otherwise he would bow down.
"You are my Taoist Tianbao Palace's hope to inherit the Datong in the future, so it should be urgent no matter what."
"In addition." He paused, "In addition, this time I came to Ze Province, I also came to my hometown. Speaking of which, I am from here and grew up here. When the head teacher took me away many years ago, I was only In my teens, it has been many years now, if it weren't for my junior brother, I might not be able to return to my hometown."
"So it is." Zhang Rongfang understood.
"By the way, the younger brother came back this time, and the task is arduous. In Yuxu Palace, although the palace master was persuaded by the head teacher to unify, but the palace master believed in the head teacher, not anyone else.
Tianbao Palace and Yuxu Palace, although they have the same spirit, one teaching has two sides, but your status as a Taoist brother, you mainly inherit everything from Tianbao Palace.
And Yuxu Palace is regarded as a dark side force, which has always been inherited alone. so."
"So, if I can convince the master of Yuxu Palace, then my identity can be regarded as being fully recognized?" Zhang Rongfang nodded clearly.
"Exactly, but Palace Master Yuxu and her old lady have some special ailments. If you see them, don't be surprised or afraid. Just get used to it." Ding Rui seemed to be thinking about how to use words
This made Zhang Rongfang, who had some guesses in his heart before, tremble again.
It seems that the Yuxu Palace and his party are not only here to take refuge, but Lao Yue hopes that he can let another Daoist faction meet and unify their thinking.
"Okay, junior brother, it's time to hit the road. This time, you don't blame the head teacher, all this is to give you an opportunity to thoroughly clean up the hidden dangers and black hands that may exist around you.
That's why they made this bad strategy, but now it seems that apart from a little affiliated force of Xizong, nothing has been fished out. Ding Rui sighed.
"Thank you, Master, for your good intentions, brother, I am ashamed." Zhang Rongfang also sighed.
Immediately, Ding Rui and several others escorted him across Lichun Lake.
No surprises this time.
Zhang Rongfang also understood that the reason why he deliberately created a situation where he was traveling alone at the beginning was also planned long ago.
Now that I'm about to enter my hometown, I don't need these preparations.
What should come out has already come out.
So the group went straight to Ze Province.
Instead of taking office first, he first went to the ancestral court of Daojiao Ze Province - Yuxu Palace.

Ze Province · Tianhe Mountains.
In the middle of the entire Ze Province, there is a huge mountain range across the region. This mountain is shaped like a river, winding and flowing, with a snow-capped top. It is also called Tianhe by the locals.
The real Yuxu Palace is hidden in Lingxu Peak, the highest point of the Tianhe Mountains.
Lingxu Peak is shaped like a huge palm, divided into five fingers facing the sky, with the palm facing up, as if it is lifting some invisible object.
The buildings of Yuxu Palace are built in the middle of the palm.
To enter it, you must first pass through the gate of heaven.
"This is Tianmen?"
Zhang Rongfang and the others were standing on the mountain path of Lingxu Peak.
Going forward is a spacious avenue, extending into a snow and ice canyon.
There is a huge and towering checkpoint in the canyon.
The level is black and white, covered with ice and snow.
From a distance, it looks like a huge round lock, and the keyhole is the only door that can enter and exit.
The material of the level seems to be mainly made of a mixture of rock and metal, with intricate feather patterns, cloud patterns, Taoist mantras and other inscriptions everywhere.
Zhang Rongfang looked left and right at the height of the mountain walls on both sides of the next level, at least hundreds of meters.
"This checkpoint is the Heavenly Gate set up by Yuxu Palace?" He asked in a deep voice.
"Not bad." Ding Rui showed a slightly proud expression.
"The Tianmen is more than a hundred feet high, and it is a key line of defense against all invading enemies. And because it looks like a lock, many colleagues also like to call it Tiansuo."
He leads the way.
"Let's go, someone is coming to greet you."
Zhang Rongfang quickly followed. Behind them are Fairy Baihua and the other three. The three of them were the leaders of the secret whistle set up outside the Yuxu Palace before, so returning from this trip together can be regarded as a refreshment.
A group of people hurried forward and entered the canyon.
The mountain walls on both sides are steep, covered with mossy mountain grass, and withered vines can't cover the faint weathered lines on the stone walls.
Groups of white unknown birds are constantly flying over the canyon, as if they are playing in circles.
At this time, on the stepped mountain road directly ahead, more than a dozen tall figures in white clothes and thick cloaks were quickly ushered in.
These people were men and women, all wearing thick white velvet hats, and the collars of the cloaks also had warm fluffy edges to keep them warm.
They carried all kinds of strange weapons on their backs, such as long spears, three-pointed double-edged guns, maces, long-handled mo knives, and even a pair of black big thick meteor hammers.
The person in the lead is a middle-aged man with bright eyes and red skin.
This person has a mustache, carries a wish wheel, and is about 2.34 meters tall. He seems to have a high status among this group of people.
When the rest of the people were marching, they didn't even dare to overstep their steps.
"Yun Shan, the first-class deacon of Yuxu Palace, has met Dao Zi. I have seen Brother Ding." As soon as the middle-aged man approached, he solemnly saluted Ding Rui and Zhang Rongfang.
The two quickly returned the gift.
"Junior Brother Yunshan, please lead the way." Ding Rui followed the other party's words. "I haven't returned for many years, and I don't know what's going on here." He sighed slightly.
"Brother Ding, is he worried about family affairs? Ding Zongfu has been safe and sound all these years, and there is no problem." Yunshan decisively began to chat with Ding Rui.
Zhang Rongfang was behind, and the person who came with Yunshan started talking in a low voice.
"Are you Zhang Ying, Taoist son of Tianbao Palace? Dao name Qiankun? What a big dao name!" A beautiful girl with a plump chest in a pure white fox fur cloak approached Zhang Rongfang curiously and asked.
"Yeah, the Daoist name is given by the master, and I can't help it. Don't look at my name and get a big name. In fact, you also understand that Tianbao Palace doesn't practice martial arts very much.
My real name is Zhang Ying, the shadow of the shadow, how dare I ask this junior sister's Taoist name? Zhang Rongfang asked in a low voice, showing helplessness at the same time.
"My name is Shangguan Yi, and my Taoist name is Han Zhen. You can call me Han Zhen directly." The girl seemed young, but she was quite outgoing and not shy at all.
Besides, she is beautiful and cute, her face is full of collagen, and two deep dimples are revealed when she smiles.
Such a person, even if he strikes up a conversation rashly, even if something happens unexpectedly, he will not make people unhappy.
Everyone will be more tolerant of such people.
"I heard that you came here just to see the Palace Master, right?" Han Zhen asked in a low voice.
"Yes, the main purpose of my coming here is to seek to see the Palace Master. After all, he is also my master and uncle, so I have to come because of emotion and reason." Zhang Rongfang nodded.
"Then you have to be careful." Han Zhen suddenly looked a little weird, "The palace master has a bad temper, you must follow her when you talk and do things, otherwise it will be very troublesome!"
"How to say?" Zhang Rongfang has long been curious about the owner of Yuxu Palace.
Hearing these words at this time, his heart moved suddenly, to see if he could find out something from Han Zhen in front of him.
"I can't say it." Han Zhen shook his head. "You'll know when you see it."
"Can't say it?" Zhang Rongfang was taken aback. What's the reason?
He wanted to ask again.
Suddenly, Ding Rui spoke in front of him.
"arrive."
Zhang Rongfang raised his head and looked forward.
At this time, they have come to the foot of the huge gate of heaven, standing in front of a city gate that is slowly rising and constantly opening.
The city gate is rectangular, and there are densely packed sharp metal thorns on the walls on both sides, obviously it will not be fun to watch.
A group of people walked in and passed through the Tianmen after a while.
Behind the gate is a huge cliff, and under the cliff is a vast stone forest.
It's just that the stone forest here, every stone pillar is a huge mountain peak.
The tops of the peaks have been flattened, and Taoist buildings with pure white and gold as the main tone can be seen faintly on the top.
Between the peaks, there is a large area of dense dark green woodland.
A large number of colorful birds fly around the mountains.
The trees are lush and full of vitality, and pink and white flowers can be seen blowing their petals in the wind from time to time.
"The palace lord is in the Lingxiao Palace, Han Zhen, since you and Daozi have a good relationship, you will lead the way and send him there." The Taoist Yunshan who led the team ordered in a deep voice.
"Okay Daddy." Han Zhen stuck out his tongue.
"Brothers, I'll go first." Zhang Rongfang cupped his hands at Ding Rui and the others.
"See you at Bishuitan later." Ding Rui mentioned. "Dining and eating are also there."
"it is good!"
Although Zhang Rongfang didn’t know where the Bishuitan was, he only needed to ask someone to show him the way.
Immediately, Han Zhen led Zhang Rongfang and turned all the way. After walking a few hundred meters, he stopped in front of a cliff and connected a long thick rope directly to the rest of the mountain.
There is something like a cable car hanging on the rope.
The two sat in it, and Han Zhen slapped the rope ten times in a row. It seems to be transmitting some information.
Soon, the rope started to move, bringing the cable car forward.
"If we want to go to different palaces in the twelve palaces of Yuxu Palace, we have to go through different antennas every time to get there. So here, mastering the antenna password is a must." Han Zhen enthusiastically introduced to Zhang Rongfang road.
"Antenna." Zhang Rongfang inexplicably recalled the same name in his previous life.
But he was quickly attracted by other information the other party said.
"The Twelve Palaces? What is that?"
"It is the twelve great clan forces that make up the Yuxu Palace. There are twelve grand masters who established the clan and established the mansion. Of course, the minimum requirement for the founding of the clan and the establishment of the mansion is to meet the master, but in fact, the strength of the twelve clan houses brings together the entire The essence of Taoism is more than that. You will know it after you get in touch with it." Han Zhen said proudly, puffing up his chest slightly.
"Twelve grandmasters?" Zhang Rongfang took a breath. He couldn't help thinking of the sensor door.
"If the induction door is complete, wouldn't it be"
"The induction door was defeated by us head-on back then. Although it was taking advantage of their civil strife, that battle established our Daojiao sect's second position!" Han Zhen smiled proudly.
"Okay. That's true" Zhang Rongfang didn't know what to say
The cable car goes all the way forward, from low to high, and keeps climbing.
After more than ten minutes.
The two finally arrived at the tallest one among the many stone pillars.
It was a pure white palace with a huge golden bead placed on the top.
The shape of the palace is like a huge sky character, surrounded by Tai Chi squares.
The location where Zhang Rongfang and the two came down was one of the squares.
"Okay. It's here, you go down." Han Zhen patted Zhang Rongfang, she spoke, but she still sat still, motionless.
"Aren't you coming down?" Zhang Rongfang felt something was wrong.
"Is the palace master someone who can see it casually?" Han Zhen said solemnly, "So you go, someone else will send you out, don't worry about me."
"." Zhang Rongfang always felt that something was wrong.
Whether it’s Han Zhen’s expression at this time, or the surrounding environment
Yes.
This Taoist palace here, at a glance, has nine floors, and there is no human voice except for the singing of birds.
The ground is paved with excellent flat white stone slabs, very clean.
But this is the highest place around, there is not a single tree, it is strange that it is not clean.
"Okay, I'm leaving." Without waiting for Zhang Rongfang to reply, Han Zhen patted the rope again, and immediately the cable car slid down and away from here quickly.
That posture, no matter how you look at it, it looks like you are fleeing.
