"buzz"
A line of stripes lit up, the teleportation array vibrated slightly, and the aura quickly became stronger.
In a burst of dazzling light, a figure suddenly appeared in the teleportation array.
This man was dressed in black robes, his pupils were as black as ink, he was tall and had a masculine temperament.
It's just that his face is a little pale, as if his vitality has been severely damaged.
It’s Liu Yu!
"Meet Master Qingyang"
When the disciples guarding the teleportation formation saw the appearance of Elder Jin Dan, they immediately bent down and saluted.
The next moment, the entire disciples in the Teleportation Hall were alerted and immediately came forward to pay their respects, not daring to neglect.
For a time, the sound of worshippers could be heard all the time.
"A familiar sect."
Looking at the familiar scene in front of him, Liu Yu sighed slightly and had a lot of thoughts for a while.
He had been dealing with monsters for too long, and when he returned to his sect far away from the war, he couldn't help but feel a sense of intimacy.
The tense heartstrings finally relaxed a little.
"Um."
Facing the hall full of disciples, Liu Yu nodded lightly and walked out of the hall directly, leaving many disciples who fantasized about reaching the sky in one step disappointed.
After leaving the teleportation hall, a ray of light quickly rose into the sky from Qingtai Peak and flew towards Tongtian Peak.
Now that he has returned to the sect, he should explain the situation to the Council of Elders no matter what.
As for the mission, it should be considered a failure, but Liu Yu had a clear conscience and had tried his best after all.
There is a huge disparity in strength between the enemy and us. If it were an ordinary Jindan cultivator, the city might be destroyed and people would be destroyed.
After two years of persistence, I have fulfilled my obligation.
…
Qingtai Peak is not far from Tongtian Peak. In just a quarter of an hour, the spiritual mountain, which looks like a jade in the sky, comes into view.
This time, Liu Yu didn't need to fall down and flew straight to the mountainside.
Foundation-building deacons cannot fly around Tongtian Peak, but Elder Jindan is an exception. Now that he has been promoted to the Jindan stage, he is naturally no longer restricted by the previous rules.
Along the way, there were no monks to stop him or any restrictions to be triggered.
Liu Yu looked towards Zhenyang Dojo and saw only a deserted place.
The place that was originally bustling with many Foundation Establishment disciples discussing mysteries and Taoism, now only saw two or three people.
With the outbreak of the great beast tide that occurs once in thousands of years, most of the monks in the sect were sent out to guard important places in Qingzhou. Even the Jindan elders could not stay away.
As a result, everywhere in the sect naturally seemed a lot deserted.
During the war, most of the Jindan elders were sent out, and Patriarch Tianfeng designated Master Changfeng to sit in charge of the sect and take charge of the overall situation.
As for the head of the Foundation Establishment Stage, he only manages the disciples in the Qi Refining Stage and some sect chores.
Soon, Liu Yu arrived at the mountainside near the top of the mountain.
Tongtian Peak is a fourth-level spiritual mountain, and the cave abode closest to the top of the mountain has a slightly richer spiritual energy than the third-level top spiritual mountain.
pavilion, pavilion, big lake
The environment of the cave is beautiful and full of classical charm. The blue waves are rippling slightly in the lake. It can be seen that the owner of the cave pays great attention to self-cultivation.
"I'm in Qingyang, and I'm here to pay a visit to Senior Brother Changfeng!"
Standing outside the cave, Liu Yu used the sound method to transmit the sound into it.
Soon, a boy walked out and respectfully invited him in.
After passing through the pavilions, Liu Yu met Li Changfeng at a small pavilion by the lake.
After so many years, this man still has a short beard that is two inches long and has not grown longer at all.
Liu Yu suddenly had this idea, but he did not move slowly and took the initiative to hold his hand and said:
"Qingyang has met Senior Brother Changfeng."
Although they are both in the Golden Core realm, the opponent is already at the peak of the Golden Core, and he is still in the early stages of the Golden Core, so naturally it is better to lower his posture.
"Junior Brother Qingyang is too polite."
"Let's sit down and talk."
Li Changfeng did not show off, stood up and returned the salute, and then said hello.
After saying that, he pointed to the seat opposite.
"Junior brother is guarding Jinge Immortal City, why are you returning now?"
"Could it be...?"
Li Changfeng asked in confusion, frowning slightly after speaking, looking at Liu Yu's pale face, he seemed to have thought of something.
"Um."
Liu Yu nodded with a heavy face and said bluntly:
"Senior brother is right, Jin Ge City has been lost."
"Liu escaped with his life by luck, but we don't know whether the other three fellow Taoists are alive or dead."
"I don't know how many of my disciples will survive in the end."
His tone was heavy, as if he was worried about this matter, and he sighed heavily after speaking.
"This is really not good news."
Hearing this, Li Changfeng looked solemn.
Since the outbreak of the beast tide, many large and small gathering places for immortal cultivators have been breached in Qingzhou within two years, like a wildfire igniting a prairie fire.
However, the significance of Jinge Immortal City is extraordinary. Once this city is lost, it means that Qingzhou's defense pressure will be even greater.
Monsters may launch an attack on "Crescent City" at any time.
Once Crescent City cannot defend itself and monsters sweep in, the situation will immediately fall into decay.
"Junior Brother Qingyang is not responsible for this matter."
"It's not that the sect doesn't know the importance of Jin Ge City, it's just that there are wars all over Qingzhou at this time, and we really can't spare the manpower to go to support."
"Junior brother has done his best to be able to hold on for two years. Don't take it personally at this time."
"This is the time to employ people. Junior brother, I will go back and recuperate for the time being. I will still need junior brother in the future."
Li Changfeng did not blame him, but comforted him with words and told the sect's difficulties.
Facing the tide of giant beasts, even the Yuanying Sect is helpless.
As he said, it's not that the three sects don't know the importance of Jinge City, nor are they deliberately delaying support, it's just that they are really short of manpower.
There are more than thirty Jindan cultivators in our sect. Even if we include the Jindan cultivators from affiliated forces, there are only sixty or seventy of them. However, you can imagine how difficult it is to defend such a vast territory.
It is difficult to persevere with just three sects no matter what.
Moreover, this is the vanguard of the beast tide, and the most violent moment has yet to come.
The five major sects of the Chu Kingdom are certainly behemoths when faced with ordinary monks.
But facing the beast tide, it also seemed small and weak.
"Ahem. Liu understands."
Liu Yu nodded lightly.
He sighed softly in his heart, feeling helpless.
Judging from the current situation of the sect, even if I have been on the front line for a while, I am afraid that the time to "recuperate" will not be too long.
Most likely in a few years, they will have to go to guard some other dangerous place.
There is no way, who are the Jindan monks of Yuanyang Sect? There are only so few people in total?
Not only the Yuanyang Sect, but also the other four sects of Chu State were not much better.
Under the tide of beasts, even old enemies like Yuanyang Sect and Hehuan Sect temporarily put aside their prejudices.
Some cities on the border between Qingzhou and Jingzhou were garrisoned by monks jointly sent by the two sects.
"I wonder what's going on with the Seven Nations Alliance at this time?"
"When will reinforcements from the Alliance arrive?"
"With just our five sects of Chu State, even if we fight to the death and refuse to retreat, the final result will be"
After recounting the situation in Jinge City in detail, Liu Yu asked about the news of concern.
If reinforcements from the Seven Nations Alliance could arrive earlier, the current situation, which is close to erosion, might be able to improve.
"Over there with the Alliance."
Li Changfeng's face turned a bit ugly when he mentioned the Seven Nations Alliance, but he still told the latest news one by one.
As many small and medium-sized countries were directly destroyed by the beast tide, the Seven Nations Alliance indeed felt the crisis, and the agenda of sending troops was greatly accelerated.
But again, ideological identification cannot be compared with one's own interests.
Many sects far away from the Hengduan Mountains are still wrangling over little details, regardless of the urgent situation ahead.
"In this case, the situation is already very bad."
"In Liu's opinion, the sect should prepare for the worst."
Liu Yu nodded and said solemnly.
After becoming the Jindan Elder, he had various privileges in the sect, and every year he earned a lot of spiritual stones if he did not do anything.
It is even faster and more convenient to collect spiritual herbs or spiritual materials through sect channels.
Naturally, he didn't want to see the Yuanyang Sect, because the beast tide's vitality was severely damaged, and even collapsed.
"Senior brother, don't forget the story of Xuanming Sect."
Liu Yu gave one last reminder.
After becoming an elder, you look at things from a different perspective than ordinary disciples, and you can already participate in sect decision-making.
Therefore, when he said this, it was not considered presumptuous.
Anyway, it’s just a talk. In the end, it still depends on the decision of the Presbyterian Council. Any proposal proposed by Elder Jindan must be approved by more than half of the Presbyterian Council before it can be implemented.
In this regard, even Li Changfeng, who is vaguely the number one person in Yuanyang Sect's Golden Pill, is no exception.
Patriarch Tianfeng has the power of veto and can make decisions with just one word.
"Xuanming Sect!"
At the mention of such a name, Li Changfeng's face became extremely solemn.
How powerful was the Xuanming Sect back then? There were several Yuanying monks in the sect.
It was precisely because of the great beast tide that the five major sects were given the opportunity to take advantage of it, and in the end they ended up with the sect destroyed.
I don’t know if the inheritance has been discontinued now.
After the reminder, Liu Yu said no more, chatted about the recent situation for another half-quarter of an hour, and then left.
Those who can cultivate to the golden elixir stage are not easy to come by. Most of the things they can think of can be thought of by others.
There is no need to say much about this kind of thing, just mention it a little.
"Perhaps when the sect cannot hold on any longer, it will choose to move to Zong Yuan Kingdom."
"Unexpectedly, the chaos in Yan and Nanyu actually left a way out for the five sects."
"It's just that Tongtian Peak is not easy to move. Even if the fourth-level spiritual veins use magic to forcefully move to the Yuan Kingdom, I'm afraid the vitality will be severely damaged."
"After the migration, it will be considered good if we can still maintain the fourth level."
After leaving Li Changfeng's cave, various thoughts flashed through Liu Yu's mind, and then she shook her head slightly and stopped thinking about it.
In this situation, even though he is a golden elixir monk, the things he can influence are very limited. Thinking too much will only increase worries.
Thinking about how to take care of yourself is the most important thing.
As for benefiting the world at the same time, let’s look at True Lord Yuanying and Lord Transformation God!
Thinking like this, the magic power in Liu Yu's body circulated and flew towards Qingyang Peak.
…
The acres and acres of spiritual fields were neatly taken care of by a famous maid, making them lush and beautiful.
Occasionally, when they meet each other, the maids will talk about the beast tide, and their words are full of worry, worrying about the future of the sect.
Outer disciples only perform a mission once every three months, and then they can receive three months' monthly salary. This is something that many casual cultivators dream of.
Even if the task takes longer and is more complicated, it is still countless times better than that of casual cultivators whose every piece of spiritual stone is stained with blood and sweat.
As for the inner sect disciples, their salary is almost double that of the outer sect disciples, and they also have various preferential treatments and do not need to do chores once every three months.
On average, there is only one task every six months, but it is much less time-consuming and labor-intensive than ordinary chores.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of task is intended to sharpen the inner disciples.
Make them understand that every piece of spiritual stone is hard-earned, and they should not become a waste who only knows how to collect monthly salary.
But Yuanyang Sect's good treatment for disciples is based on plundering the entire Qingzhou.
If the sect loses too many resources and territory, the previous generous treatment will naturally not be maintained.
Therefore, whether it is from an emotional or profit perspective.
Most of the disciples do not want to see the sect's vitality severely damaged, and are very concerned about the recent situation.
The blue light came from the sky, and his spiritual consciousness swept across it. He heard all the maid's comments, but it did not stop and went straight to the top of the mountain.
"It's the young master!"
"Young Master is back from a mission!"
Feeling the powerful spiritual pressure, the maids looked up with joy on their faces.
Under such circumstances, they could still quietly take care of the spiritual grass here, all thanks to Liu Yu's shelter, so they naturally hoped that he would be safe and sound.
"Rumble"
The stone door slowly opened, and Liu Yu stepped into the cave.
When his consciousness swept away, he realized that Yan Hongyu was not at Qingyang Peak, so he went directly into the bathroom and washed his body carefully.
"It seems that I haven't done it myself for a long time, and I'm really not used to it."
At this time, Liu Yu thought of her personal maid Wen Caiyi, especially her weak, boneless, smooth and cold hands.
It didn't take long for the cleaning to be completed.
He put on a brand new black robe, went directly to the bedroom, lay on the soft bed, and soon fell asleep.
For two years in Jinge City, under the strong pressure of the beast tide, Liu Yu barely had a good night's sleep.
Every time, it was just a quick break.
With the Jindan monk's energy, although his condition would not be affected, he still missed the feeling of a good night's sleep.
…
"Ah~!"
After one day and one night, Liu Yu woke up leisurely, stretched out, and felt refreshed.
When my thoughts were clear and I came to the hall dressed neatly, the maid had already prepared spiritual tea and various pastries.
After hastily eating a few pastries and drinking a cup of spiritual tea, he went straight into the practice room and started practicing every day.
It had only been two years since he left the Yuanguo Branch. Careful arrangements had been made there, and Liu Yu had no thoughts of leaving for the time being.
Going back and forth is indeed a waste of time.
Well, let Jiang Qiushui and Ji Ruyan come over.
In the practice room, Liu Yu sat cross-legged on the futon, took a "Pui Yuan Pill", started practicing "Qing Yang Kung".
Three hours of Qingyang Gong, two hours of Shen Shen Miao Dharma, and two hours of Star Reality.
After cultivating the three paths together, seven hours passed.
While developing in an all-round way and having no shortcomings, Liu Yu also paid the price of time, spending a lot of time in boredom.
If you want something, you often have to pay something first.
After completing the practice, Liu Yu spent another hour warming up the Sunset Golden Rainbow Spear, the Golden Jade Ring, the Ten Thousand Soul Banner and other magic weapons.
Then he touched the storage ring, took out various monster materials, and began to count the harvest of this trip.
