Although Zhou Yang looked down on a coward like Geng Zhong, the threat from the other party was still worthy of his attention.
So after rescuing Zhou Guangxiang's brother, sister, and others, he took them directly to the "Demon Falling Valley" above the rocky wasteland, and asked Xu Song here to set up a large formation to isolate the atmosphere to block the "Ten Thousand Miles Soul Chasing Technique" and the like.
The tracking spell effect.
Xu Song was still able to survive when the Nascent Soul Stage monks were personally chasing him down because he had mastered a formation that could isolate and track magical powers, and he happened to be using them again this time.
As for the other foundation-building monks of the Zhou family who came to the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortality, there was no need to do this. Zhou Yang asked them to continue to disperse to nearby countries for training, and agreed to return to Cangyuan Immortal City to gather together in five years.
Even Zhou Guangxiang put on Zhou Yang's disguise mask and went out to practice.
Zhou Guangxiang also practiced the "Golden Cicada Hidden Breath Technique" that Zhou Yang had originally obtained. With this technique, he could hide his cultivation level. With his cultivation level and the help of the mask, as long as he tried to avoid meeting the Golden Core Stage monks, there was no need to do so.
Worry about being recognized.
Zhou Yang, on the other hand, has a golden elixir level of cultivation that is difficult to hide. He can easily attract attention when he goes out and walks around. Now that his identity has been exposed, it is too easy for others to guess his true identity.
After all, those who have cultivated to the Golden Core stage are well-known beings. It is impossible for a strange Golden Core cultivator to suddenly appear from nowhere and no one knows about it.
At this time, Zhou Tongyue and Li Hong also took advantage of the fact that Geng Zhong was busy asking for help from Guo Jinhong and taking over Cangyuan Immortal City, and had no time to take care of them, the "remnants of the previous dynasty", and quickly evacuated all the monks of the Zhou family
The boundaries of Cangyuan Immortal City were dispersed and evacuated outside the Yu Kingdom.
Li Hong had made preparations for the Cunning Rabbit Three Cave many years ago and found a place outside the Yu Kingdom that could temporarily accommodate the monks of the Zhou family.
Of course, their excuse for evacuating was also very simple. The Zhou family used to be close to the Li family, and the Li family fell. They also evacuated Cangyuan Immortal City completely to prevent Geng Zhong from liquidating.
Although it is said that there are only one emperor and one minister, there are always those kinds of "loyal ministers" in the world, right?
This behavior of the Zhou family actually earned them a reputation for loyalty, which allowed this foundation-building family to show its face in the Yu Kingdom due to the incident of changing the owner of the Cangyuan Immortal City.
On the other side, Guo Jinhong, who was far away in Haoyang Mountain in Jinyang Kingdom, after receiving the news from Cangyuan Immortal City in Yu Kingdom, quickly ordered several late Jindan monks from the Haoyang Sect to take his tokens and rush to Yu Kingdom to search for Zhou.
Positive.
No one in the Far West except Yin Hanguang knows the news of the death of the "Tiansha Corpse King". Guo Jinhong will not dare to leave the Haoyang Sect Mountain Gate easily unless this beast is eliminated.
What's more, when Guo Jinhong thought about it, there was no need for him to take action personally to arrest and deal with a golden elixir-level monk who had only been in the golden elixir for a century.
After the monks he sent arrived at the territory of the Yu Kingdom, they immediately used his token as the deputy leader of the "Backlight Alliance" to recruit the golden elixir monks and their subordinates from various forces in the Yu Kingdom, and they were all over the territory of the Yu Kingdom.
The whereabouts of Zhou Yang's gang were searched, even the Li family where Li Mubai was staying was not spared.
On the contrary, the Zhou family, because it had no reputation before and was only a vassal family attached to the Li family, had not been implicated by Zhou Yang except for Geng Zhong who issued an order to arrest the Zhou family monks as the lord of Cangyuan Immortal City.
.
In the past, Guo Jinhong did not move to Li Mubai and the Li family, who became Taoist companions with Zhou Guangxiang, because Li Cangyuan, the "Cangyuan Sanren", had made great contributions to the Backlight Alliance. He was also a powerful monk who could rival a ninth-level Golden Core monk. There was no need for him to
The anger was poured out on the unimportant Li Mubai.
But now, Li Cangyuan, the "Cangyuan Sanren" who protected the Li family, has passed away. Li Mubai and his children were witnessed by countless monks from Cangyuan Immortal City and left with Zhou Yang. Of course, Guo Jinhong didn't mind sharing these with Zhou Yang.
All relevant people will be erased.
The person who led the team to eliminate the Li family was Geng Zhong, the current lord of Cangyuan Immortal City.
Geng Zhong hated Zhou Yang and the Li family to death. Although he used to covet the treasures and resources that the Li family had accumulated over the years, he could only endure it for the sake of reputation.
But now his reputation has been ruined by Zhou Yang, and his reputation as a coward has begun to spread to the entire Yu Kingdom. How can he endure it!
In particular, this time he acted under the orders of Guo Jinhong, the deputy leader of the "Backlight Alliance", which was justified.
The poor Li family, although they received the warning message Zhou Yang asked Li Mubai to convey, they did not pay enough attention to it and did not let the clan members disperse in pieces and leave as he advised.
So when Geng Zhong led his troops to kill, the Li family of Cangyuan Immortal City, which had been prominent in the Yu Kingdom for hundreds of years, was brutally wiped out overnight, and hundreds of monks and clan members were all beheaded by Geng Zhong.
He was brought to the immortal city fort in Cangyuan and placed in front of the capital to demonstrate and provoke Zhou Yang.
And all this is because Zhou Yang and the others are in a rocky wasteland isolated from the world, and no one knows about it.
Not long after this, the battle to choose the next master of the Great Light Immortal Palace broke out. The entire Far West region focused on this matter, except for the monks of the Haoyang Sect who were still fulfilling their duties.
Apart from Jin Hong's order to continue searching for the whereabouts of Zhou Yang and others, not many people paid attention to this matter anymore.
Zhou Yang had little information and was also unaware of this matter.
Until everything settled, Yin Hanguang, with the support of Lu Xuanji, successfully won the position of the next palace master of the Great Guangming Immortal Palace by retrieving the inherited fairy weapon "Eye of Light", and personally came to the Rock Wasteland to find him.
Only then did he know the result.
"I have already heard about what happened to you in the Far West. Just let Guo Jinhong, the grasshopper after autumn, jump around again."
In the Rock Wasteland, Yin Hanguang and other Zhou Yang congratulated him on successfully winning the position of the next palace master of the Great Light Immortal Palace, and then talked about it with a smile, with a look of relief on his face.
Now Yin Hanguang can be said to be very proud of himself.
The current palace master of the Great Light Immortal Palace, "Chihua Zhenren", has a short lifespan and will pass away in more than a hundred years at most. In other words, in more than a hundred years, he can officially take over the position of palace master and become
One of the most powerful people in the "Linghuan World".
In fact, because "Zhenren Chihua" will soon go into seclusion and enter the tribulation period, Yin Hanguang will take power many years earlier.
"Old thief Guo is really hateful. I wonder when will senior Yin need to use this junior? As long as senior has instructions, junior can go through fire and water for senior at any time!"
Zhou Yang said with a look of resentment on his face, but he showed his loyalty in front of Yin Hanguang.
He really wanted Guo Jinhong to die, but he expressed his loyalty to Yin Hanguang mainly because he knew that the other party would be extremely relieved after hearing his words, but because of Lu Xuanji, he would not really accept him as his confidant.
In other words, as long as he sacrifices a little face, he can gain the favor of the future Lord of the Great Light Immortal Palace. How could he not do such a good thing?
Sure enough, when Yin Hanguang heard what he said, even though he knew he didn't mean what he said, he still felt very satisfied, and the smile on his face became much softer.
He immediately smiled and said: "I am very happy that you have this intention. I have informed the palace master about Situ Xuanyue, and the palace master has also agreed to my proposal to use this matter to make trouble.
That’s why I’m here!”
When Zhou Yang heard this, he immediately responded: "In that case, the junior can set off with the senior at any time."
Immediately, after giving an explanation to Zhou Guangxiang and others, he and Yin Hanguang left the Rock Wasteland and quietly rushed to Jinyang Country.
On the way, Yin Hanguang told Zhou Yang the plan of action this time.
According to the plan, the operation against Guo Jinhong should be fast, so fast that other Nascent Soul stage monks in the "Backlight Alliance" would not have a chance to intervene.
Otherwise, even if they have evidence that Guo Jinhong murdered Situ Xuanyue, they will not be able to let the other Nascent Soul monks of the "Backlight Alliance" watch them break through the Haoyang Sect's mountain gate and kill Guo Jinhong, the deputy leader of the "Backlight Alliance"
.
Therefore, in order to achieve this decapitation effect, the current palace masters of the Great Light Immortal Palace, "Chihua Zhenren" and Lu Xuanji, the two "half-step true immortals" of the ninth level of Nascent Soul, will take action at the same time to ensure that the Haoyang Sect can be broken as quickly as possible.
The mountain gate made it impossible for Guo Jinhong to wait for help.
"To say the least, I have to thank the [Tiansha Corpse King]. If it hadn't destroyed Guo Jinhong's body and forced Guo Jinhong to reincarnate, this guy could have given up his body in time, left his body and escaped from the mountain gate to seek for help.
Rescue.”
"But now, if he dares to give up his physical body and Nascent Soul to leave his body, he is asking for death!"
Yin Hanguang talked about his plan, looking like he had the pearls of wisdom in hand and full of confidence.
Zhou Yang also had to admit that although this plan was simple and crude, it was indeed effective.
After Guo Jinhong seizes the body once, he can no longer seize the body again, so even if he knows that under the attack of the two Nascent Soul ninth-level monks, "Zhenren Chihua" and Lu Xuanji, the Haoyang Sect's mountain gate array cannot hold up.
For how long, we can only grit our teeth and hold on, waiting for help.
Under this conspiracy, Guo Jinhong's only way to break the situation was to do his best to lead the Haoyang Sect disciples to resist until reinforcements arrived.
But Zhou Yang knew that Guo Jinhong would never survive that time.
Because the three Nascent Soul stage monks who attacked this time were all beings with seventh-level magic weapons, the power of their combined attack would even be taken seriously by the True Immortal of the Tribulation Stage.
Along the way, Yin Hanguang did not show off the speed of a Nascent Soul Stage monk, but pretended to be a small Foundation Establishment Stage monk together with Zhou Yang.
Although it took them several months to reach the Jinyang Kingdom where the Haoyang Sect was located, it was absolutely safe and reliable.
When the two of them arrived thousands of miles away from Haoyang Mountain, Yin Hanguang used means to communicate and contact "Zhenren Chihua" and Lu Xuanji who had lurked in advance, and soon the four of them were together.
At this time, even the Nascent Soul stage monks in the Great Bright Immortal Palace thought that "Zhenren Chihua" and Lu Xuanji, a monk of the same level who came all the way from the Immortal World of Liuyun Continent, were communicating and attacking in the cave.
The experience of going through the period of tribulation.
Ever since, when "Zhenren Chihua" and Lu Xuanji no longer concealed their cultivation auras at the "half-step true immortal" level of the ninth level of Nascent Soul, they appeared forcefully outside the mountain gate of Haoyang Sect, on the top of Haoyang Mountain
Guo Jinhong and Peng Yuanjing, another Nascent Soul Stage monk from the Haoyang Sect, both had their faces changed with horror.
Clang, clang, clang!
On Haoyang Mountain, the alarm bells were ringing, and the rapid and sharp ringing woke up even the monks who were hiding in the closed rooms of the hermitage.
All the Haoyang Sect disciples who heard the sound of the bell, those who were in the foundation-building stage and above, immediately flew out of the cave residence and rushed to the nearest node of the mountain-protecting formation with their expressions changing wildly.
This kind of training to rush to the mountain gate to guard the nodes of the mountain guarding formation when the sect is facing a life-or-death situation. They have to undergo training after successfully building the foundation. They thought that as disciples of Haoyang Sect, a top sect, they would never encounter this kind of training in their lives.
Moment, I didn't expect to use it now, which made every Haoyang Sect monk who rushed to the battlefield panic in his heart.
Boom!
While the Haoyang Sect monks on Haoyang Mountain were still rushing to the mountain gate to protect the mountain, a fierce attack had already come.
As the current master of the Great Guangming Immortal Palace, "Zhenren Chihua" is a ninth-level monk of the Nascent Soul who is in charge of the seventh-level mid-grade magic weapon "Guangming Scepter". As soon as he takes action, the sky is filled with light, and countless white light turns into particles.
White meteors continued to fall, causing the Haoyang Sect's mountain gate guarding formation to shake violently.
Compared to his massive attack, Lu Xuanji's attack was simple.
But simplicity does not mean that it is weak.
Under the command of Lu Xuanji, every time the red-gold divine spear hit the Haoyang Sect's mountain-protecting formation, it would cause the slightest crack in the protective shield of the mountain-protecting formation in some areas and almost break into pieces.
Although every crack would be repaired quickly, the power of Lu Xuanji's attack could often penetrate those cracks and cause great damage to the Haoyang Sect monks and the mountain inside the mountain guarding formation.
Many Haoyang Sect monks who were still rushing to the battlefield were suddenly killed on the spot by the red gun aura falling from the sky, leaving no trace of their bodies.
Compared with these two "Half-step True Immortals" at the ninth level of Nascent Soul, Yin Hanguang's offensive attack was significantly inferior.
Although he also sacrificed the seventh-level magic weapon "Eye of Light", the attack seemed a bit mediocre and only served to supplement the offensive of "Zhenhua Zhenren".
Zhou Yang's blood boiled with excitement when he saw the massive offensive of the three Nascent Soul Stage monks, and he almost joined the attack array.
But whenever he had this thought, after seeing the young man wearing a golden robe on Haoyang Mountain, he would immediately feel a chill in his heart and restrain this impulse.
Although his appearance had changed a bit and he had become much younger, as soon as Zhou Yang saw the young man in the golden robe, he knew that this person was Guo Jinhong, the sixth-level Nascent Soul monk.
After seizing the body, it was difficult for Guo Jinhong to improve his cultivation, but with the foundation of Haoyang Sect's top sect, he was able to regain 80% of his cultivation in just a hundred years.
At this time, he looked at "Zhenren Chihua" and Lu Xuanji who were fiercely attacking the mountain guard formation outside, with a rare look of fear in his eyes.
While he asked his junior brother Peng Yuanjing to command the sect's monks to guard the mountain formation, he shouted loudly: "Old monster Chihua, you fought without warning and went deep into our [Nike Light Alliance] territory to attack our Haoyang Sect without any reason. You want to fight with us."
[Backlight Alliance] Are you going to fight to the death?"
"If this is the case, Guo and all the monks of Haoyang Sect will fight you to the end even if they risk their lives, so that you will not be able to leave the borders of Jinyang Kingdom!"
The Great Light Immortal Palace and the "Counter-Light Alliance" have been at war for thousands of years. This kind of gathering of experts to raid the enemy's important sect strongholds has happened many times, but every time this happens, it means the intensity of the war has escalated.
.
But the fact is that the two sides only had a war a hundred years ago, and they even lost a Nascent Soul Stage monk to each other. Why would the Great Light Immortal Palace dare to start another war? Just because of the sudden extra man who is said to be from
Are there other ninth-level Nascent Soul monks in the world of immortality?
Guo Jinhong felt that the matter was not that simple, because as the deputy leader of the "Backlight Alliance", he had not received any news of unusual movements on the border.
If the Great Light Immortal Palace really wants to launch an extremely intense war, it is impossible that there will not be any changes around the border beforehand. Such large-scale war preparations cannot be concealed even if they want to.
So, what happened that caused "Zhenren Chihua", the current palace master of the Great Light Immortal Palace, to suddenly take Yin Hanguang, the next palace master, to take the risk of sneaking into the heart of the "Counter-light Alliance" and attack their Haoyang Sect's mountain gate?
Is he the old man who is said to come from the immortal world of Liuyun Continent?
Guo Jinhong looked at Lu Xuanji with shocked and angry eyes.
Regarding the origin of Lu Xuanji, during the battle for the next palace master of the Great Guangming Immortal Palace, Yin Hanguang has already explained that the "Backlight Alliance" installed in the Great Guangming Immortal Palace also passed the news back to the "Backlight Alliance"
Inside.
To be honest, the top beings in the entire Far West were surprised that Yin Hanguang was able to find such a strong person across the world of immortality to help him compete for the position of palace master.
According to the unspoken rules of the world of immortality, top beings will not easily interfere in the internal affairs of other worlds of immortality. This can easily arouse the hostility of the top beings in the entire world of immortality and bring disaster to themselves.
Even though Lu Xuanji is a "half-step true immortal" on the ninth level of Yuanying, he is already among the top people in the "Ling Huan Realm". Once he attracts the collective hostility of the top beings in the great immortal world, there is also the risk of falling.
.
However, the special circumstances of the Immortal Cultivation World in the Far West have made the chance of encountering hostility from the entire Immortal Cultivation World smaller.
First of all, after the Nascent Soul stage monks in the "Backlight Alliance" learned that Lu Xuanji had intervened in the competition for the position of the next palace master of the Great Guangming Immortal Palace, their first reaction was not to be filled with indignation and want to help the Great Guangming Immortal Palace to expel Lu Xuanji, but to hug him.
The spectators watched the show, and even mobilized the insiders to stir up trouble and stir up trouble among the lower-level disciples, forcing the top beings of the Great Light Immortal Palace to expel Lu Xuanji.
In the view of these "Backlight Alliance" monks, it would obviously be of great benefit to the "Backlight Alliance" if the Great Light Immortal Palace could expel Lu Xuanji, an outsider who interfered in the internal affairs of their sect, and allow the two sides to conflict and fight.
It would be best if Lu Xuanji didn't want to leave easily and had a battle with the Nascent Soul Stage monks of the Great Guangming Palace and killed one or two Yuanying Stage monks of the Great Bright Palace.
Guo Jinhong thought the same way at the time.
But now, when he looked at "Zhenren Chihua" and Lu Xuanji who had joined forces to attack his Haoyang Sect's mountain gate, he knew that he was wrong, a big mistake!
It turns out that in addition to expelling Lu Xuanji, Great Light Immortal Palace can also use Lu Xuanji's external force to attack their "Counter-Light Alliance".
The addition of a "Half-Step True Immortal" from the ninth level of Nascent Soul is enough for the two sides, who were originally evenly matched, to make one side's top existence power overwhelm the other side.
If Lu Xuanji can use Lu Xuanji's help to inflict heavy damage to their "Backlight Alliance", then it will help Yin Hanguang to take the position of the next palace master of the Great Guangming Immortal Palace. It is obviously also a good thing for the current palace master "Chihua Zhenren".
Something worth considering.
Anyway, who should take the position of palace lord?
There is not much difference in strength between Yin Hanguang and those competitors, and he has made great achievements in recovering the missing inherited immortal weapon "Eye of Light". It is not unacceptable for him to be the next Lord of the Immortal Palace.
Moreover, Guo Jinhong quickly thought about where he had gone wrong, and figured out where the top beings of the "Backlight Alliance" had gone wrong.
Their mistake lies in judging others by themselves!
They think for the sake of their own sect, and of course they feel that inviting outsiders to interfere in the selection of their sect's successor cannot set a precedent. Otherwise, if the successor is seduced and controlled by the outsiders in the future, their sect will be in trouble for thousands of years.
Shouldn’t the foundation be destroyed in one fell swoop?
But they all ignored one thing at the time, and that was that a huge sect as big as the Great Guangming Immortal Palace did not need to worry about being annexed by outsiders, because there was no sect in this "Linghuan Realm" that had the appetite to be big enough to take a bite.
Swallow a giant like the Great Light Immortal Palace.
This is also the biggest difference between alliance forces like the "Backlight Alliance" and simple sect forces like the Great Light Immortal Palace.
But Guo Jinhong only wants to understand this now, which is obviously too late.
"This Fellow Daoist Lu, as long as Fellow Daoist is willing to stop, our Haoyang Sect can double the benefits that Great Light Immortal Palace can give you, and Guo can swear on the honor of the sect's ancestors!"
Guo Jinhong's face turned pale as she looked at Lu Xuanji, who kept attacking the mountain-protecting formation. Even though he knew that this kind of persuasion before the formation would not have much effect, he still tried to make a last-ditch effort.
He knew very well that if Lu Xuanji did not intervene, there was a high chance that the Haoyang Sect would guard the mountain gate today and wait for reinforcements to arrive. But if Lu Xuanji did not stop, he was not even 20% sure.
However, Lu Xuanji didn't even bother to pay attention to him, and his offensive did not weaken at all.
In the end, Yin Hanguang felt that if he could not let Guo Jinhong understand why he killed him and other monks of the "Backlight Alliance" understand why they attacked Haoyang Sect, it would be detrimental to his idea of establishing his authority.
Then he shouted loudly: "Guo Jinhong, what have you done, don't you know it in your heart? Let me ask you, where is Situ Xuanyue, the genius disciple of our Great Light Immortal Palace who possesses the [Xuanyin Spirit Body] now? What do you use
[God-Controlling Technique] Where did the female cultivator Qin Yue'er, who is controlled by such forbidden techniques, come from? Do you dare to tell the truth?"
Where is Qin Yue'er?
After Guo Jinhong heard Yin Hanguang's words, he couldn't help but look sharply at Zhou Yang outside the mountain. Of course he knew that Qin Yuer was kidnapped by Zhou Yang and the "Tiansha Corpse King", but now he was explaining these to Yin Hanguang
Is it useful?
Yin Hanguang asked him this, but he just told him that the Great Guangming Immortal Palace already knew what he had done, and would use this as an excuse to kill him and establish its power.
So he didn't bother to answer Yin Hanguang, and just took a deep breath and shouted: "All disciples of Haoyang Sect, listen to the order, our sect has now reached a critical moment of life and death. Next, I will defend the mountain gate to the death, waiting for reinforcements to arrive.
I hope that you can also die for the sect and live in the place of death!"
His words not only stabilized the hearts of all the sect monks, but also told all the sect monks that he would never abandon them and flee alone. They also warned all the sect disciples not to think of suing for peace and surrender.
After hearing his words, there was silence on Haoyang Mountain for a while, and then not long after, some Haoyang Sect disciples shouted: "Guard the mountain gate to the death, and the Haoyang Sect will win!"
After the shouting sounded, everyone on the whole mountain soon started shouting.
When Yin Hanguang outside the mountain gate heard the cries of unity, his face changed slightly at first, and then he looked at Lu Xuanji and "Zhenhua Chihua". After seeing that the two did not stop for a moment, he was convinced,
With a sneer on his face, he continued to attack the Haoyang Sect's mountain-protecting formation.
