Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Eight: No More Going First (Chapter Two in One)
I recall that when I was collecting the requiem fruit, I had to cover my tracks secretly in the Huang family's elixir garden in Tianyong Mountain for fear of being discovered by my fellow disciples.
Now, the Wei family can openly offer it to the Wei family, while fellow disciples are too scrupulous to ask questions. The gap is so huge that it is embarrassing.
All of these are changes brought about by strength.
Back then, he was just a newly promoted foundation builder and was forced to participate in the battle of the Lingshi Mine. His presence in the sect was extremely low.
Now he has the status of a golden elixir disciple, leader of the Qingfeng team, and a second-level alchemist. His cultivation has been promoted to the middle stage of foundation building. His strength is also in the upper reaches of the foundation building monks, and his reputation has begun to spread among the disciples.
Able to lead a team independently, with many people at his disposal, and to be sure of everything.
The changes in the past twenty years are not small, but Liu Yu has not changed at all.
Just because of his real strength, he will never let himself down, so he naturally looks up to him without fear!
"Human desire is like rolling stones on a high mountain. Once it starts, it can never be stopped."
On the boat returning to Yuan Dynasty, Liu Yu clasped his hands behind his back and looked into the distance, with a slight trace of vicissitudes of life on his face.
When the Immortal Mansion had not been opened, his biggest wish was to become a foundation-building monk. Now that he had achieved his original goal, he still wanted to go further and see more scenery of the Immortal Way.
…
Phoenix Mountain is about four hundred feet high, and the spiritual veins inside it are as high as the second-level high-grade. It is said that a true spiritual phoenix once settled here, hence its name.
The mountain is full of spiritual energy and has been well maintained since it was occupied by the Bai family. Low-level spiritual fields have been opened in many places to grow crops of spiritual valleys and spiritual grasses.
It provides the Bai family with a lot of low-level training resources every year and plays an indispensable contribution to its development and growth.
But at this time, the Bai family seemed to be facing a formidable enemy. Not only did they recall the scattered clan members, but they also activated the mountain protection formation to cover the entire Phoenix Mountain.
Moreover, monks would arrive from time to time, and they would be allowed to enter the mountain after their identities were verified, causing the number of monks in Phoenix Mountain to gradually increase.
The strength of the Bai family is also at the top of the Jiji family, and it is closely connected with Baiyun Temple. It has extremely strong local influence, and naturally has many vassals and strong appeal.
In addition to the main family, many Qi refining families and casual cultivators can also be mobilized.
After Bai Caihuang hurried back to her family, she immediately sent a message to Baiyunguan, and then quickly activated the mountain-protecting formation to shrink her strength to remain vigilant, while anxiously waiting for news from Bai Lianhua.
Unfortunately, she was destined to be disappointed this time.
After disappearing, the soul lamp left by Bai Lianhua in the ancestral hall gradually became fainter until it finally went out.
There is only one possibility for the soul lamp to go out, and that is that the corresponding monk has died.
The patriarch with the most prestige and the highest level of cultivation passed away, and the news spread and caused a storm in the Bai family. However, with the news brought by Bai Caihuang, they had no time to grieve and could only seize the time to make arrangements.
From time to time, several colorful rays of light appear on the horizon, quickly approaching Phoenix Mountain, and finally disappearing from this mountain.
This process started half an hour ago, lasted for more than half an hour, and has no tendency to stop.
The appeal of local snakes can be seen from this.
In a mortal town more than twenty miles away from Phoenix Mountain, in an ordinary inn.
Jiang Qiushui stood by the window, looking at the movement in Phoenix Mountain, her eyebrows slightly furrowed with obvious anxiety in her eyes.
Every time you delay a little longer, the Bai family's defensive strength will become stronger, and the attack will become more difficult, and maybe they will be defeated in the end.
She wanted to lead people to intercept and kill these monks to prevent the Bai family's power from growing further, but when she thought of Liu Yu's instructions, she finally gave up the idea.
There were several people not far away from Jiang Qiushui. Cui Liang, Leng Yuexin, and Meng Wenxing had arrived here to meet up as arranged after completing their mission.
At this time, the atmosphere in the room was solemn. A fierce battle was about to be fought. Everyone's expressions were extremely solemn. They took the time to adjust their status and warm up their mana so that their strength would be at its peak.
"Guiyuanzhou"
Suddenly, a striking red light appeared in the sky, and Jiang Qiushui spoke softly.
Upon hearing this, Cui Liang, Leng Yuexin and others also got up and came to the window.
…
Just like a great white shark suddenly broke into a school of ordinary fishes, the monks observed the huge Guiyuan Ark changing their expressions along the way, and they all controlled the escape light to avoid it.
With Bai Lianhua's death and the impending frontal attack on Phoenix Mountain, it was no longer possible to conceal the news, so Liu Yu simply stopped covering up Gui Yuanzhou's whereabouts.
I just took this opportunity to announce the arrival of my group and use the change of dynasty in Phoenix Mountain to scare some wavering monks.
Looking at the few rays of light flying towards Phoenix Mountain from time to time in the sky, he frowned slightly and thought for a while before saying:
"Fellow Daoist Guangzheng, Fellow Daoist Xiao, each of you will lead three teams and arrange them around Phoenix Mountain to intercept these monks."
"Any monk who dares to enter Phoenix Mountain at this time will be killed without mercy!"
"We also need to intercept the transmission notes emitted by Phoenix Mountain and cut off its contact with the outside world."
"Come see me again after you've done this."
No matter what, it would be too much to just watch the opponent grow stronger. Although Liu Yu was somewhat sure of taking Phoenix Mountain, he did not take it lightly, but he still had to make preparations.
The first step is to cut off contact with the outside world.
"Yes, I (below) will do it right away."
The two of them had already made preparations, and immediately took orders, each bringing three teams of thirty Qi Refining monks, and headed in different directions.
Watching the two of them go away, Liu Yu nodded slightly.
Then he changed the magic technique in his hand and controlled Guiyuan Zhou to fly downward, stopping at the location mentioned by Jiang Qiushui, above a mortal town.
Guiyuan Zhou is dozens of feet tall, exudes a faint spiritual light, and is huge and eye-catching in the air.
Not to mention the mortal towns below, even Phoenix Mountain twenty miles away can be easily discovered.
Soon, several rays of light appeared below and flew straight towards Guiyuanzhou.
Upon closer inspection, it was Jiang Qiushui, Cui Liang, Leng Yuexin and others.
"Senior Brother Qingyang, the three elders of the Bai family have been killed by us, and all the monks of the Bai family in Qimu Mountain have also been killed."
"The formation on this mountain has been destroyed by us and can be taken down at any time."
"The resources on the mountain remain intact and are still waiting for senior brother's disposal."
When the light fell, Leng Yue's heart should be the first to cup his hands and report.
As she spoke, she took out a pamphlet from her storage bag and handed it over.
"Junior Sister Leng did a good job, and she really did not disappoint Liu."
"As for the resources of this mountain, we should wait until after the event to distribute them."
Liu Yu showed a smile and praised a few words.
Then several people began to communicate and reported on the situation of the past two days.
"Senior Brother Liu, the Qi Refining Stage disciples have been arranged in the town below. What should we do next?"
After communicating for a while, Jiang Qiushui came closer and said.
Liu Yu narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, looked at Phoenix Mountain in the distance where the formation had been activated, and said calmly to a few people:
"Gather all the disciples to board the Guiyuan Ark. Without further delay, we will attack Phoenix Mountain immediately."
Jinquefang City has been surrounded by the main force of the sect. Logically speaking, the Bai family's request for help is unlikely to receive a response, but there is always an eventuality in everything. Maybe a few fish will slip through the net?
If its reinforcements arrive at the Bai family, it will definitely hinder the team's actions and even cause a devastating blow, so it is better to fight quickly.
"yes!"
Yan Kai, Cui Liang, and Leng Yuexin all took orders one after another, then took out their magic weapons and quickly flew downwards.
According to prior arrangements, they will lead a brigade respectively.
Not long after, monks in the Qi Refining Stage flew towards Guiyuan Zhou with their magic weapons. Following Liu Yu's orders, they no longer hid themselves.
In just about twenty breaths, they all flew onto the deck and stood in order.
Including the 100 Wei family monks, there are close to 400 monks in the light refining period at this time, and they are all densely packed with heads. Fortunately, Guiyuanzhou is big enough, otherwise there would not be room for so many monks on the deck.
Even so, it still seemed a bit crowded.
From the tense bodies of these monks and the gazes they looked at Phoenix Mountain from time to time, Liu Yu was keenly aware of their nervousness and uneasiness, but did not say anything more.
No matter what these monks think in their hearts, the development of affairs will not change according to their will, and this battle is inevitable.
The direction of this world of immortality has never been determined by the majority of low-level monks.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, Liu Yu cast a spell on the control token, and controlled Gui Yuanzhou to fly straight towards Phoenix Mountain without any cover.
The Bai family naturally discovered this huge red flying boat early and maintained a high degree of vigilance against it. At this time, they no longer conserved their spiritual power and fully activated the mountain protection formation.
Taking the Phoenix Mountain as the area, a cyan light pillar quickly formed, covering the entire Lingshan Mountain, making a huge movement and triggering changes in the energy within a ten-mile radius.
Within this range, as long as you are a monk, you can feel the changes in spiritual energy, which are very different from usual.
Seen from a distance, the azure light pillar covering Phoenix Mountain is extremely powerful, and it is very conspicuous even in the daytime, making it impossible for the monks to ignore it.
The cyan light pillar is several miles long and wide, and about 500 feet high. It is like a divine needle that fixes the sea, giving the Bai family monks an unparalleled sense of security. It is also like a freely retractable golden hoop that wants to pierce the sky and stir up the wind and clouds.
The second level of the best formation - the Qinghua Formation of Disillusionment.
At this time, in the solemn ancestral hall of the Bai family, two female nuns, one elder and one younger, had different moods and started communicating here.
"Caihuang, now the patriarch has encountered an unexpected situation. You are the most talented person in the Bai family in recent generations. The hope of the family rests on you."
"In my opinion, you are really not suitable to stay on Phoenix Mountain. You should bring some of your core tribe members and leave."
"The Yuanyang Sect and his party are approaching fiercely. Since they dare to attack Phoenix Mountain, they must have prepared some trump cards and are quite confident."
"If we stick to it, the family may be in danger of being destroyed."
A female cultivator who looked about fifty years old and had silver hair advised her.
She is the fourth elder of the Bai family. She is in the middle stage of foundation building. She is also a direct descendant of Bai Lianhua. It can be said that she has watched Bai Caihuang grow up.
Bai Caihuang stared blankly at Bai Lianhua's tablet, her eyes filled with sadness, and she blamed herself so much that she didn't know what she was thinking about and didn't answer for a long time.
"It's all my fault that I was useless, so I had to let the clan leader cut off the queen, so I lost my life."
"If I were at a higher level and not so cowardly, I wouldn't be able to do something like that, right?"
she murmured.
It seems that he is blaming himself, and he seems to be asking.
He didn't know if he had figured it out, but the look in his eyes gradually became brighter, as if the flame of hatred was ignited.
"The fourth elder is right, you can't put all your eggs in one basket."
"It's up to you to arrange for some core tribesmen to find opportunities to break out of the encirclement. Don't recall the tribesmen who are still outside. Let them hide with their own resources."
"As for Caihuang, as a young clan leader, how can I leave the family in times of crisis? I will stick to the end and live and die with the family!"
"This time, I will never leave first!"
Bai Caihuang took a deep breath and said with determination.
At the end of the sentence, she couldn't help but shed two lines of tears in her eyes, which looked like a sad beauty.
"Silly boy, don't act out of emotion."
"You are the hope of the family. Besides, it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years."
"Obey, it's better to evacuate first."
"If you don't leave, it will be too late."
The fourth elder of the Bai family looked anxious when he heard this. He grabbed one of Bai Caihuang's hands and continued to persuade him.
But no matter how she tried to persuade her, Bai Caihuang had no intention of changing her mind at all, with a determined look on her face.
In the end, the fourth elder of the Bai family sighed and could only give up the idea.
She had watched this child grow up with her own eyes, and she knew his character very well. Once she decided on something, it would be difficult to go back. Unless it was Bai Lianhua, no one else could say anything about it.
Shaking his head, the fourth elder of the Bai family left the ancestral hall to make corresponding arrangements.
…
A quarter of an hour later, Guiyuanzhou approached Phoenix Mountain and stopped thirty feet away from the blue light pillar.
Compared with the huge cyan light pillar, the flying boat measuring several dozen feet is obviously "small" and exquisite.
But the "small" Gui Yuanzhou was on the offensive side, while the huge cyan light pillar could only passively defend.
Liu Yu had a calm face and looked at Phoenix Mountain calmly.
Because the formation was activated, the scene in the mountain has been obscured, and only a "thick" cyan light pillar can be seen completely covering it, occupying most of everyone's field of vision.
"According to the information, this formation of the Bai family is the second-level best, and it is also arranged on the spiritual veins, so its power will be increased by another 30%."
"If we want to break through, I'm afraid it won't be easy."
"I dare to ask Senior Brother Liu, do the elders give you the kind of treasure that can make the final decision at a critical moment?"
Looking at the scene in front of him, Yan Kai had a headache, then he smiled and asked in a mysterious voice.
"A treasure that must have a certain sound?"
"Why are you asking so many questions? Won't you know by then?"
Liu Yu showed a mysterious smile and cursed with a smile.
Yan Kai smiled awkwardly, with a look of understanding on his face, but he was too sensible to ask any further questions.
After asking this question, everyone knew that their side also had a "secret treasure", and the atmosphere finally became much more relaxed.
Seeing this, Liu Yu had no explanation, and hit a few more spells on the token, controlling Guiyuan Zhou to fall to the ground.
