Chapter 433 The Beast King awakens and the war begins
"good!"
Hearing Lu Changan's reply, Elder Wanhe felt secretly happy.
Once this child participates in a gambling battle, he will lose his lifespan regardless of the cost, burst out with secret skills, and be comparable to the middle stage of the primeval life for a short time.
Coupled with the unexpected assassination, there is a greater chance of killing Lu Changan.
The spike magic weapon of the deputy master of Wujian Sect can kill souls. Unless Lu Changan has the strength of Zhenjun Qingmu, he may not even be able to achieve the Nascent Soul leaving the body.
"..."
Lu Changan stepped on the battlement, but he paused on the spot and did not step out of the range of the formation.
"What do you mean, Mr. Lu Zhen? You are so sincere that you don't even dare to come out and fight to resolve personal grudges?"
Looking at the hesitant Lu Changan, Elder Wan He cursed secretly, this guy is really a turtle.
"Elder Wanhe, can you reiterate the previous paragraph?"
Lu Changan said with a half-smile.
"If you still don't dare to fight under such circumstances, I will call you 'True King Turtle' when I meet everyone from now on."
"good!"
Lu Changan decisively agreed, took a step back, and completely returned to the city wall formation.
"you--"
Zhenjun Wanhe's eyebrows trembled, his face looked ugly, and there was a trace of anger and frustration in his hoarse and trembling voice.
He was shocked and confused. Could it be that Lu Changan saw it?
This shouldn't be the case.
This plan was not a spur-of-the-moment idea, it was pushed behind the scenes by the leader of the Beast King Valley, and it took a lot of human kindness to invite the deputy sect leader of the Wujian Sect.
Even the three Demon Lords behind them don’t know the specific situation.
"Lu Wugui, even the old and aging monks of the same level do not dare to fight, so you will bear the name of Wugui for the rest of your life!"
Elder Wanhe, who had broken his guard, cursed angrily.
"Old guy, you only have a lifespan of a hundred years, how can you be as valuable as the life of the true Lord?"
"The old man will die together. If it damages Ben Zhenjun's hair, it is really not worth it!"
Lu Changan waved his hand and said with waning interest.
Elder Wan He's face turned blue, his chest heaved, and he almost exploded with anger.
He has never seen fellow monks who cherish their lives so much and speak so plausibly.
Yin Yuanhai looked at Lu Changan beside him with a constipated expression.
…
In the important town, the monks from the Wei Dao Alliance watched Elder Wan He leave cursingly.
at the same time.
The large sensor array in one's own territory generates warning sensors.
Lu Changan noticed the shadow changes near the city wall and the surrounding vegetation and stones, which soon spread to hundreds of miles away.
The change was so slight that he noticed the clues only after he was on guard.
"As expected! That old guy is just playing on the sidelines and has no martial ethics."
Lu Changan sneered inwardly.
In previous divination, he captured uncertain crises.
Thinking back to what happened to Master Lihuo in his early years, I naturally became wary.
Being able to hide from his own senses, with such a hidden ability, he could only think of the Infernal Gate.
Moreover, it is very likely that he is the middle-stage Nascent Soul boss of Wujian Sect, and his spiritual consciousness exceeds that of Lu Changan under normal circumstances.
The Peacock Saint was kneeling on her knees, with tears still lingering in her eyes. When she reached the direction where her grandfather had no choice but to retreat, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Pei Nu, do you really think you are that important in your grandfather's mind?"
Lu Changan's pitying eyes fell on her face.
"In the gambling war just now, you are just a cover and a victim. The Nascent Soul monks from the Wujian Sect are lurking in the dark, trying to take the opportunity to assassinate Lu."
"If Ben Zhenjun dies, do you think you still have a chance to survive?"
Hear the truth revealed by Lu Changan.
Pei Shuyuan felt chills in her heart, and at the same time she felt the cold murderous intent from Fairy Xia.
The induction array had just reacted. Based on her understanding of the devil and her grandfather, what Lu Changan said was probably true.
Too.
A granddaughter who has lost the potential to be promoted to Nascent Soul is of less value to Elder Wan He than before.
Elder Wan He's purpose is to let Lu Changan die, even if he sacrifices his most beloved granddaughter for it.
"Has the Nascent Soul Killer from Wujianmen been here?"
Yin Yuanhai looked stern and felt scared.
Previously, I felt that Lu Changan was too timid, too cautious, and did not dare to go out to fight when he had the upper hand.
Now, he understands why Lu Changan, a casual cultivator with secrets, has been able to stay in the world of immortality for hundreds of years and become the number two figure in the Wealth Alliance.
Lu Changan did not tell Yin Yuanhai that the lurker just now might be a giant in the middle Nascent Soul stage.
"It seems that I have entered the sight of the leaders of the six demonic sects and attracted special attention."
Lu Changan thought.
That is to say, as a fourth-level divination master, he seeks good fortune and avoids misfortune, so he can avoid the murderous plan of the Demon Sect.
Information related to the Infernal Affairs Sect appeared in Lu Changan's mind.
There are two middle-stage Nascent Soul members in the Wujian Sect, and the one who came this time may be the new deputy sect leader who has been promoted for less than a century.
If it were a head-on fight, his threat to Lu Changan would be limited, lower than other mid-Nascent Soul stages.
Because the characteristics of Wujianmen's skills, which focus on concealed assassination and head-on confrontation, are inferior to those at the same level in the mid-Yuan Ying stage.
"The Six Demonic Sects have conquered various parts of the Eastern Region. They occupy large areas in the rear and need to maintain stability."
"It is very rare for a mid-stage Nascent Soul from the Wujian Sect to temporarily arrive on the battlefield of the Weidao Alliance, and it is unlikely to be permanent. After all, this place is not the territory of the Wujian Sect."
Lu Changan estimated that asking such big guys to take action in the Beast King Valley would cost a lot of money.
Existences of this level are used to deal with troublesome characters and high-threat targets, such as Shin-kun Aoki back then.
Lu Changan's previous performance was worthy of this qualification.
…
"Fellow Daoist Yin, Wen Yue, it is best that you two do not leave the important town of Xiancheng alone in the near future."
To be cautious, Lu Changan reminded the two people around him.
In fact, they both belong to the same realm. It is easy to defeat the early stage of Nascent Soul in the middle stage, but it is difficult to kill and requires some effort.
Every veteran Nascent Soul has life-saving trump cards and escape techniques, which are enough to last for a period of time.
Even if a Nascent Soul cultivator is attacking head-on, the veteran Nascent Soul's initial explosive attack can still struggle a little without being instantly killed.
After all, every Nascent Soul Lord is a big figure who stands at the top of the world of immortality. Each has extraordinary luck and is not that cheap.
On the front line of the battlefield, due to the existence of the induction array, once the Nascent Soul's magic power is used, it will be easily exposed, and the nearby friendly Nascent Soul can quickly support it.
As long as there are two early-stage Nascent Souls nearby who join forces, the mid-stage Nascent Souls will still have an advantage and can advance and retreat freely, but it will be more difficult to kill them.
"I understand."
Xia Xianzi nodded and received a message from Lu Changan, knowing that the Wujian Sect's Nascent Soul Stage had come.
"What Mr. Lu Zhen said is true. There is nothing wrong with being cautious."
Yin Yuanhai secretly thought that few of those demonic souls could be beaten by him.
It's better to listen to Lu Changan's suggestion. Although it's a bit cautious, your life is not in danger.
"This time, my husband humiliated the Peacock Saint in public, making the Beast King Valley furious. The goal has been achieved. What are you going to do with this girl next?"
Xia Wenyue's eyes turned and fell on the Peacock Saint who was kneeling and silent.
"The strategic goal has been initially achieved, but this woman may still have value in the future."
Lu Changan said thoughtfully.
He could see that Fairy Xia was a little repulsed by her previous behavior of humiliating the Peacock Saint in public.
"My husband has already humiliated her. If you want to take revenge, it is better to execute her as soon as possible so as not to keep her by your side and create another variable and hidden danger."
Xia Wenyue looked directly at Lu Changan and suggested.
"It would be too wasteful to kill him, but he can be taken back to the chief helmsman and used as a hostage."
Yin Yuanhai shook his head subconsciously and looked at Pei Nu, who was beautiful and fragrant and dressed as a bride.
"This girl will be treated as an ordinary female slave and will no longer be shown to the public. Pei Nu is not Lu's private slave, but also Wen Yue's maid."
Lu Changan looked at Xia Wenyue and asked.
There is no way, Fairy Xia has achieved Nascent Soul, is on par with me, has a different status, and is qualified to raise questions.
Lu Changan's "Dragon and Phoenix Double Cauldron Technique" relies more on Xia Xianzi to make up for the lack of follow-up techniques in "Evergreen Gong".
When discussing Taoism on weekdays, Fairy Xia is a little more conservative and very obedient and cooperative.
She is not an NPC, nor is she an accessory without her own opinion.
Lu Changan should respect her opinions appropriately.
"good."
Fairy Xia felt relieved and had a smile on her face.
Pei Shuyuan knelt on the ground and breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart became increasingly sad.
He never expected that the person who was willing to plead for him and gain some dignity would be Lu Changan's woman.
…
A few days later.
The news that the Peacock Saint was humiliated and enslaved in public spread to the rear of the Beast King Valley camp.
The cultivators in the Beast King Valley were shocked and excited.
This situation is like when a big country is conquering and invading, and its noble princess is kidnapped by a small indigenous country and humiliated in public.
I used to bully your small indigenous country, but now it's the other way around. How can I tolerate this situation?
It is simply the opposite of Tiangang!
For a time, the people and gods in the Beast King Valley were angry, and the slogans for war became more and more intense.
Even among the higher-ups in Beast King Valley, the calls for war are getting louder and louder.
Elder Wan He and True Lord Black Feather belong to the factions of the two Nascent Souls, and their influence in the Beast King Valley is unquestionable.
Including the Peacock Saint, there are many admirers in the Beast King Valley, some of whom are experienced in the middle and late stages of pill formation.
On the front lines of the two camps, several small-scale battles broke out one after another. The confrontation between the scout monks became more fierce, and both sides suffered casualties.
The situation is slightly out of control.
…
Former Yan Kingdom, Valley of the Beast King.
In the huge valley, there is a group of magnificent and rough giant buildings, animal gardens, bird's nests, spiritual washing pools, etc., surrounding the "Beast King Palace" in the center with stars holding the moon.
Beast King's Hall.
Elder Wan He descended from the flying crane and walked into the hall.
"metropolitan."
Elder Wan He first saw the bearded man in a purple robe, the "Master Meng" of the Beast King Valley.
"Senior brother."
Sect Master Meng had a straight face, but when he saw Elder Wan He coming in, he nodded slightly.
"Great Elder."
Elder Wan He then saw the fat, white old man lying half-lying at the top, like a big-bellied Buddha.
"Well, this elder has always been peace-loving and does not want to break out into a final war with the Guardian Alliance."
"Unexpectedly, when this kind of scandal occurs, the radicals within the sect can no longer suppress it."
The great elder felt sleepy, touched his exposed belly, and sighed helplessly.
Hearing this, Elder Wan He looked slightly embarrassed.
Nowadays, he and True Lord Black Feather are considered representatives of the radical faction, and they have also persuaded Sect Master Meng.
It's not like they have to fight.
But this time the Wei Dao Alliance slapped him in the face. The humiliation was too serious and offended the people of the Beast King Valley.
The Peacock Saint herself is not that important, but she is the link between the two true monarch factions.
Lu Changan's slap not only slapped the faces of the two true kings, but also humiliated the Beast King Valley, the top sect of the Demonic Dao, which was so powerful in Daqing.
"Once the final war breaks out, many people will die. You must think clearly..."
The fat old man was eating broad beans in his mouth and saying compassionate words.
However, there is an inexplicable sense of inconsistency between the person's words and his careless and lazy expression.
Elder Wan He knew very well that this great elder had lived the longest in the Beast King Valley and had the most high-level monks who died at his hands in the past thousand years.
However, the strategy of formulating peaceful trade methods and slowly assimilating the Wei Dao Alliance came from the great elder of the Beast King Valley.
If there are no accidents, in tens to hundreds of years, the Guardian Alliance will most likely decompose, assimilate, and integrate into the camp of Beast King Valley.
However, in recent years, a change has occurred.
That is True Lord Evergreen.
Sect Leader Meng said solemnly: "If we don't start a war, how can we, the Beast King Valley, have the dignity to be ranked among the six sects of the Holy Sect?"
"Unfortunately, the previous calculations against Lu Changan failed. Even if he was seriously injured that day and his Nascent Soul was released from his body, the situation and military morale could be stabilized."
Elder Wan He said with regret.
The deputy sect master of Wujian Sect was hired by Beast King Valley at a cost of favors and costs.
That person is also in the middle stage of Nascent Soul and is not a monk from the Beast King Valley. He will not always cooperate and help with his life.
"It's not the wrong name. Lu Changqing is very good, and he is protected by the divination secrets of the 'Heavenly Master'. It is really difficult to kill him."
The great elder shook his head, it was just an attempt anyway.
He spread his hands and said: "If you want to fight, fight. How are the preparations for the war?"
Sect Leader Meng pondered: "Most of the battle beasts and fourth-level beast kings that were reserved for the Immortal War back then have expired. Coupled with the support for the Seven Nations Alliance, they have almost been depleted."
"However, in the past few years, I have ordered people to go to the Black Mist Mountains to hunt down second- and third-level monsters and obtain new sources of beasts, enough to reserve the consumption for a new round of immortal cultivation war."
The great elder frowned for the first time: "It's a little hasty, please restrain yourself."
"The Seven Nations Alliance has not yet established a firm foothold, and the Guardian Alliance has not yet fully taken control. It is not yet time to attack the Black Mist Mountains."
When the Six Demonic Sects expanded eastward, one of the reasons why Beast King Valley chose this territory was because of the steady source of beasts in the Black Mist Mountains.
Once the territory surrounding the Wei Dao League is completely captured, the source of beasts in the Black Mist Mountains is developed, and the business lasts for hundreds of years, the Beast King Valley may not have the chance to become the leader of the Holy Sect.
"I, a high-level monk from the direct line of the Beast King Valley, are so precious. How can we continue to fight in the war and consume them excessively?"
Sect Leader Meng knew the great elder’s scruples and added:
"I have ordered the Beast Hunting Hall not to go deep into the hinterland. Anyway, there are too many monsters in the Black Mist Mountains, and every time there is a tide of monsters, some will be driven away."
The Six Demonic Sects used to be in the Central Territory, which was not adjacent to the Black Mist Mountains. Although they had heard some rumors, they were not too afraid.
Hundreds of years ago, great monks of Nascent Soul were born in the ten sects of Xuanmen, but they were not destroyed.
After the defeat, the good and the demons reached an agreement, and the main forces of the six demonic sects withdrew from the stage of the Central Region, and their territory was close to the Black Mist Mountains.
You must know that the great monk of Yuanying from the Tenth Sect of Xuanmen was not the opponent of the great elder of Mingquan Sect before he advanced.
The great elder of the Mingquan Sect is a genius who has spent too much time and energy in order to develop great magical powers such as the "Second Nascent Soul" and "Styx Purgatory".
Otherwise, the person promoted to great monk may not be the Xuanmen one.
Due to the shackles of Daqing's heaven and earth environment and thousands of years of luck, at most one miracle can be born.
…
boom!
Suddenly, an inexplicable shaking feeling came from the depths of the Beast King Valley, underground.
When we arrived at the Beast King's Hall, we only felt a slight tremor.
The Great Elder, Sect Master, and Elder Wan He, who were discussing the war, fell into a brief silence.
"How is the seal of the Beast King? Is it loose?"
The great elder spoke.
The War Beast King that was cultivated and spawned by secret techniques in the Beast King Valley is actually a pseudo-fourth level. It is not the real [Beast King], but absorbed the essence and blood of the sealed Beast King.
The truly strongest Beast King has heaven-level bloodline and half of the demon blood. He has a long lifespan and has been sealed by the Beast King Valley and is in a deep sleep.
Sect Master Meng replied: "There is no problem with the sealing formation. The Immortal Cultivation War is about to begin. Now during the preparations for the war, we need to take the essence and blood of the [Beast King], which will wake it up and occasionally shake the impact seal."
This is the strongest [Beast King] and cannot be fully controlled in the Beast King Valley. It once almost brought disaster to the whole family. Once it goes on the battlefield, the enemy may fight regardless of ourselves.
If it can truly control it, Beast King Valley will have a chance to compete for the position of the boss of the six demon sects.
But the reality is that the two Nascent Souls in the Beast King Valley must work together in the middle stage to barely suppress it. Otherwise, the out-of-control [Beast King] may destroy the mountain gate of the Beast King Valley.
Unless absolutely necessary, Beast King Valley will not use this forbidden double-edged sword.
…
Half a year later.
On the front lines of the Three Kingdoms of the Wei Dao Alliance, the monks and war beasts and birds from the Beast King Valley camp continued to gather like locusts in the tide, and the army pressed on the border.
In the past few months, small-scale battles and frictions have continued on frontline battlefields in various places.
Fortunately, the Wei Dao Alliance had made preparations and drills for war more than ten years ago, and sufficient armies of monks were stationed at the borders of various places.
In the frontline area guarded by Lu Changan, the number of invading monks from the Beast King Valley was larger than in other areas.
There have been several cases of fighting between hundreds of monks.
The Wei Dao Alliance is the defensive side, so the battle losses will be smaller.
However, part of the battle damage in Beast King Valley was borne by the battle beast pets.
As a Nascent Soul monk, Lu Changan stood above the clouds and could not directly intervene in the offensive and defensive battles on the demonic battlefield below.
With the vast consciousness of the Nascent Soul stage, every day we see middle- and lower-level monks dying in various forms of miserable fighting.
If he sees his own cultivators running away from the battle, Lu Changan will kill them without mercy.
As a Nascent Soul cultivator, Lu Changan was focused on by the Beast King Valley, and there were always hostile Nascent Souls to confront and contain him.
He and Fairy Xia were guarding an area adjacent to each other, facing three Nascent Soul monks from the Beast King Valley.
They are:
Fang Zhenjun, Guo Zhenjun, Heiyu Zhenjun.
Among them, Guo Zhenjun is not a direct monk of the Beast King Valley, but a Nascent Soul monk who occupies the area behind and is an affiliated force.
There are at least three such Nascent Soul cultivators who rely on forces in the Beast King Valley on the demonic battlefield.
If it were not for managing the vast territory in the rear area, Beast King Valley and its affiliated forces could mobilize even more Nascent Soul Lords.
…
On the clouds dozens of miles away, Fang Zhenjun looked down at the brutal fighting on the battlefield below and said calmly:
"Lu Zhenjun, this is the war of cultivating immortals that you initiated on your own initiative. If the three countries of the Guardian Alliance were willing to peacefully attach themselves to the six sects of the Holy Sect, there would not be thousands of monks going to the battlefield to die."
As he spoke.
A seriously injured fake elixir monk from the Wei Dao Alliance was surrounded by more than a dozen war beasts from the Beast King Valley and was quickly torn into countless pieces, leaving bloody traces on the ground.
At the same time, several foundation-building monks from the Beast King Valley camp were killed by the Thunder Formation monks of the Defending Alliance.
"Fang Zhenjun, if I remember correctly, you, the Six Demonic Dao Sects, are the invaders, right? The countries of the Defending Alliance, and even the vast Eastern Region, have endured the raging wars of the Demonic Dao camp all year round."
Lu Changan said with a mocking tone, lukewarm.
"Are we guilty of defending our homeland and interests and expelling the invaders?"
The Wei Dao Alliance was only a small part of the huge Eastern Territory that was invaded.
There are also realms like the Guardian Alliance and the Seven Kingdoms Alliance, where many immortal forces have formed alliances to resist the invasion of demons.
However, most of the struggles failed and were either destroyed or surrendered to the Six Demonic Sects.
"The weak and the strong in the world of cultivating immortals, the torrent of the Holy Sect, and the eastward expansion strategy are unstoppable!"
Fang Zhenjun's tone was indifferent and he said matter-of-factly.
Lu Changan chuckled and said: "Such a powerful Holy Sect was also expelled to the Eastern Region and competed for territory in remote areas."
Fang Zhenjun was not angry at all and said calmly:
"If Lu Zhenjun possesses the magical power of the Yuanying Great Monk and can dominate a state and dominate the Tianheng Continent, Fang will also bow his head and respect him."
"Okay! We have been facing each other for many days, but we haven't fought yet. Today, I want Lu to experience the strength of the disciple of the leader of the Demon Sect, the Demon Lord of the Styx."
Lu Changan learned that demonic monks bully the weak and fear power rather than virtue.
Phew!
As soon as the words fell, the two true monarchs approached each other, Nascent Soul's mana exploded, a mana cloud ring with a radius of one kilometer gathered above their heads, and the blue and yellow auras of heaven and earth roared and collided.
Ten thousand withered vine hands!
Lu Changan waved his big hand, and the mana lingered in the stir. His arm suddenly swelled, extending out with withered yellow vines, turning into a twenty-foot-long giant vine hand, exuding the evil energy of rotten Yin wood, and swatted away.
This is Lu Changan's evil secret technique of wood used to bully the weak. During the capture, he can swallow the target's essence and blood to restore his own injuries.
"snort!"
Fang Zhenjun's big sleeves were fluttering, he was calm and collected, and he raised his hand to condense a funnel-shaped ball of dim water, which seemed to contain billions of dark stardust and sand.
Pengchichi!
Lu Changan's Ten Thousand Withered Vine Hands and the majestic and continuous evil force of Mu Dao were entangled by the dim water. They disintegrated and split at a speed visible to the naked eye. After several rounds, they disappeared without a trace.
The strange thing is that Fang Zhenjun's condensed magical power and aura increased by 30% out of thin air.
It seems that some of Lu Changan's mana has been misappropriated and converted.
"The induction last time was correct. The technique practiced by this gentleman contains the Taoist charm related to the power of reincarnation."
Lu Changan tried it out and was immediately verified.
“Mediocre!”
There was a hint of disappointment on Fang Zhenjun's face, as if he had overestimated his opponent's strength.
With a wave of his hand, he shot out the roaring dim water, like a circling ancient yellow dragon. After several rounds, its power increased again, and it fiercely surrounded Lu Chang'an.
