When Tang Ning saw this, he was shocked. The spiritual power could be so intense that it turned into a tangible form. He had never seen such a scene before, he had only witnessed it in books.

"Where is this place? How can the spiritual power be so rich and pure?" he couldn't help but ask.

Tian Qingzhi, Yuan Ye and Xue Feng all smiled and said nothing.

"Fellow Taoist Tang, is there any need to ask? Which family's territory is here? Which force can possess such a large, rich and pure spiritual vein?" Wang Wei said.

When he said this, Tang Ning immediately understood: "Could this be the location of the Canglang Sect's mountain gate?"

"It's our sect." Yuan Ye was very satisfied with Tang Ning's shock and said proudly: "I dare not say which family in Yuanxian County is the strongest, which has the most financial resources, and which has the most influence.

It’s a boast, but if you say which sect has the most pure and abundant spiritual power, I dare say that there is no other sect like the Shehui sect.”

"In the Longyuan Mountains occupied by our sect, there is a sixth-order high-grade spiritual vein hidden in the ground. It is also the only sixth-order high-grade spiritual vein in the entire Yuanxian County."

"In addition, our sect has maintained it for many years, nourishing the land with various spiritual herbs and spiritual liquids, making the spiritual power more pure and concentrated. The entire mountain range has countless exotic flowers and plants, which can be called a wonder."

"To put it a bit arrogantly, I would just pick up a random cat or dog on the roadside and throw it into the Longyuan Mountains. Over time, it will transform from mortal to Taoism and become a spiritual beast."

"The low-level disciples of our sect do not need to rely on elixirs to practice. They can sit cross-legged anywhere in the mountains and absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth to refine their Qi. The effect will be better than elixirs."

"If it were inside our sect, the spiritual power would be even more pure, and there would be many spirit gathering arrays. People with our level of cultivation don't need any pills. They only need to practice in the spirit gathering arrays for a day.

The effect of the medicine is much better.”

Tang Ning was filled with envy when she heard this. This is the kind of foundation and atmosphere a large sect should have. A sect like the Qianyi Sect is, to put it bluntly, just a gathering place randomly surrounded by barren mountains and ridges.

There is a spiritual vein underground in the Luoyun Mountains. It is a first-order spiritual vein with the lowest grade, and its effect is basically negligible.

Spiritual veins are divided into eight levels from top to bottom. A mere second-level Xuanmen Canglang Sect can occupy a sixth-level high-level spiritual vein. One can imagine the richness of Qingzhou's inland products.

You must know that there are as many as twenty-seven second-level sects in the entire Donglai County.

The level of Xuanmen and the division of territory and power are determined by the four major sects. The four major Xuanmen are the leaders in the world and have been in charge of the world for millions of years. Under the rules they set.

A county can only have one top-level Xuanmen at the prince level.

Under this, a county can only have three A-level Xuanmen, a county can only have three B-level Xuanmen, a city can only have three C-level Xuanmen, and a pavilion can only have one D-level Xuanmen.

As long as it is the territory controlled by Xuanmen, Xuanmen, no matter how big or small, has its own fixed sphere of influence and cannot annex each other. Therefore, Xuanmen's power structure has never changed for so many years and has long been stereotyped.

The reason for this must be traced back millions of years to the Seventh Dao Era, when the four major sects were first established.

At that time, a civil war broke out in the human race. The Xuanfa faction defeated the Holy Fa, which was the Demon Sect faction. In order to completely wipe out the remnants of the Demon Sect hiding in various states and counties, the four strongest forces in the Xuanfa faction established four major sects in Tianyuan Holy City.

Door.

At that time, there was no such thing as a Xuanmen faction in various states and counties. Because it was necessary to eliminate the remnants of the Demon Sect hidden in various states and counties, Xuanmen was established in various states and counties.

Many Xuanmen were established by disciples within the four major sects, and at the beginning of their establishment, the four major sects established this rule.

That is to say, each county has a top-level Xuanmen in charge, and there are three Class A Xuanmen constraining it.

A county can only have three B-level Xuanmen, a city can only have three C-level Xuanmen, and a pavilion can only have one D-level Xuanmen.

Moreover, Taoist sects in the same state cannot attack each other, otherwise they will be severely punished by the four major sects.

The reason for such rules is naturally to prevent future dangers, lest these separated sects become too powerful and threaten the dominance of the four major sects.

In fact, it is precisely because of this rule that the four major sects have been the leaders in the world for millions of years.

Under this rule, Xuanmen's large and small forces were determined one by one, and the four major Xuanmen divided corresponding power boundaries for different levels of Xuanmen.

Taking Yuanxian County as a list, there are twelve cities, 360 pavilions, and an area of ​​3,600 (thousands of miles) under it.

Yuanxian City was built in the center of the entire county. According to regulations, all "county-level" city outlines are uniformly 600,000 miles in radius, while the county area is "360" miles in radius.

The so-called "county area" refers to the area directly under the jurisdiction of Yuanxian County. The "360" radius around "Yuanxian City" is the county area.

The three B-level Taoist schools in his county are stationed within the county, each covering an area of ​​1.2 "ten thousand miles". This is the direct jurisdiction of the "B-level Taoist schools".

There are three second-level Taoism schools in Yuanxian County, namely Canglang Sect, Xuanji Sect, and Qianjun Sect.

The three sects are all built around "Yuanxian City", distributed in a fan shape, and jointly manage "Yuanxian City". The area directly under the jurisdiction of each sect is a radius of 1.2 "thousand miles" of the county.

The spheres of influence of the three families radiate outward to the entire Yuanxian County based on the location of the sect's mountain gate.

For example, the Canglang Sect's mountain gate is located in the northwest of "Yuanxian City". Except for the 1.2 million miles of counties directly under its jurisdiction, the entire northwest of Yuanxian County is its sphere of influence.

In the same way, Xuanji Sect is located in the southeast of "Yuanxian City", so the entire southeast of Yuanxian County is the Xuanji Sect's sphere of influence.

The Qianjun Sect is located in the southwest of Yuanxian City, so the entire southwest of Yuanxian City is the Qianjun Sect's sphere of influence.

Based on this, Grade A Taoism is located around the "county city", and its sphere of influence radiates outward. Grade C Taoism is located around the "city outline" of the main city, and its sphere of influence radiates outward.

The most special thing here is the D-level Xuanmen in the "Pavilion".

A pavilion only has one D-level Xuanmen, because they are the lowest level Xuanmen, and their jurisdiction is only within the pavilion and can no longer radiate outwards.

It also needs to provide certain cultivation resources to Taoism at all levels.

In addition to their direct jurisdiction, sects at all levels also possess cultivation resources in each subordinate area. Where these cultivation resources come from is from the various Ding-level Taoist sects in the "pavilion".

A "pavilion" has a radius of one hundred thousand miles, and basically every "pavilion" is guarded by a D-level Xuanmen.

The real jurisdiction of these D-level Xuanmen is only 40,000 miles in radius.

The cultivation resources within the remaining 60,000 miles of jurisdiction are supplied to all levels of Taoism. They are distributed according to a certain proportion, and each level of Taoism takes its corresponding proportion.

From Taixuanzong on down, the proportions of Class A Xuanmen, Class B Xuanmen, and Class C Xuanmen are half and half respectively.

That is, in a pavilion, Taixuanzong controls five thousand square miles of land, Grade A Xuanmen controls five thousand miles, Grade B Xuanmen controls five thousand miles, and the head of Grade C Xuanmen controls five thousand miles.

There is also a 40% ratio, that is, a radius of 40,000 miles, which belongs to the merchant guild and the spiritual family.

Among them, local cultivating families account for 25%, which is a radius of 25,000 miles.

The Chamber of Commerce occupies one and a half percent, which is fifteen thousand miles.

The origin of the Chamber of Commerce is actually inextricably related to the four major sects.

In ancient times, monsters and beasts were everywhere, the monster clan was strong, and the human race was weak, so they had to hide and shrink. It was not until the Jinshui Alliance was formed that the human race began to fight against the monsters and monster clan, and then they began to have a foothold on which to live.

.

After millions of years of war, the human race gradually gained an overwhelming advantage. Just when they were about to eradicate the demon clan in one go, a civil war broke out within the human race due to the dispute between the mysterious law and the sacred law. Later, four major sects were established.

The Chamber of Commerce was also formed during this period. Of course, it was not called the Chamber of Commerce at that time. Their predecessors were a group of monks who did not want civil war among the human race.

There are both mysterious and holy monks here, and they have secretly formed an alliance under the leadership of the top monks.

In the early stages of the conflict between the Mysterious Law and the Holy Law, they lobbied the two forces and persuaded them not to go to war, but of course they ended in failure.

A war broke out between the monks of the Xuanfa and Shengfa factions. Because of their previous lobbying positions and ambiguous attitudes, these people were very embarrassed during the war between the two factions and were ostracized by both factions.

And because he did not want to get involved in this kind of civil war, he separated from the Xuanfa and Holy Law factions.

This is a large group, and its strength is actually not weak. They just broke away because they were unwilling to get involved in the war within the human race.

At that time, the entire world was basically controlled by the human race, and each state and county was occupied by two factions. They could not gain a foothold in the interior, so they had to flee to the Cangming Sea and established a country there.

The war between the Xuanfa and the Holy Law lasted for millions of years. Although the Xuanfa line won in the end, they actually killed a thousand enemies and suffered eight hundred losses. They themselves also suffered heavy casualties. As a result, the human race was devastated.

His vitality was severely damaged during the battle, and he was no longer able to annihilate the demon clan.

During these millions of years, these groups of monks who fled to the Cangming Sea have developed rapidly, including monks who were tired of the war between the two factions and fled to the island to join them.

It was during this period that they created all kinds of spiritual weapons.

Spiritual weapons of various uses were born from Cangming Island and have appeared on Tianyuan Continent ever since.

The original purpose of their creation of spiritual weapons was just to defend themselves from attacks by monks from the mystical and holy sects, and also to prevent the demon clan from counterattacking.

However, the monks of the two factions, Xuanfa and Holy Law, were fighting fiercely and had no energy to pay attention to them. The demon clan did not fight back. In this way, the spiritual weapons they created became more and more sophisticated, and the types became more and more diverse, which far exceeded the ability to defend themselves.

quantity.

Let’s talk about this thing! You can’t eat it, you can’t drink it. It can’t help your practice, and it can’t be kept like a spiritual beast. It itself is a strange weapon equivalent to a magic weapon.

If left for too long, it will be easily damaged, and you have to spend time repairing and maintaining it, which is really a burden.

What to do? You have to make it work!

How to make it work is very simple, just pull it down and turn it around on the battlefield. The problem is that the mysterious and holy factions are fighting fiercely, and no one has time to deal with the group of monks on the Cangming Sea.

But the demon tribe hid and shrank, not daring to come out. There were no enemies in the sea, they were all their own.

At this time, someone proposed to sell these spiritual weapons to monks from the Xuanfa and Sacred Fa sects, so that they could be used.

As soon as this plan was proposed, it caused an uproar on Cangming Island at that time, and was immediately opposed. They themselves broke away from their respective factions and fled to Cangming Sea because they did not want to get involved in the internal war of the human race.

If you sell these things to the Xuanfa and Shengfa monks, you are indirectly involved.

The proposal was unanimously opposed by everyone and ended without any resolution. Several years later, the monks in the Netherworld Sea were refining more and more spiritual weapons. At that time, the two factions of monks, the Xuanfa and the Holy Law, were at war.

As the saying goes, fire cannot be contained in paper. The news that Cangminghai can refine powerful weapons was known by the Xuanfa monks, so they sent people to Cangming Island to see the weapons.

After seeing it, he was shocked. When he returned, he told the leaders of the Xuanfa faction. Soon, the Xuanfa faction sent people to the Cangming Sea to negotiate with them to purchase these spiritual weapons.

The people on Cangming Island were reluctant at first because they were afraid of getting involved in the war between the two, but the people on Xuanfa didn't care whether you wanted it or not. They threatened you on the spot: "There are rebellious elements among you. We don't care. If

If you don't sell weapons to us, you have to settle this account carefully.

The monks on Cangming Island had no choice but to sell their spiritual weapons to the Xuanfa monks in order to protect themselves and avoid unnecessary wars.
