Lu Zhong, who had a clear view of this scene, did not act rashly.
Now the enemy is overt and we are covert, which is extremely beneficial to him.
The two of them are just pawns. It is estimated that even if they are arrested and interrogated or even soul-searched, they will not get much useful information. It is better to stay with them for the time being, so as to discover their plan in time.
With this thought in his mind, Lu Zhong kept an eye on it.
After checking the cabin and seeing that there were no hidden methods, he started to sit cross-legged and practice.
Taking out the obsidian stone, it has shrunk to the size of a fist.
Continue to absorb the power of the thunder stone and cultivate the armored wood thunder seal in the sea of consciousness.
"The ancient cultivation of magic is good, but it relies too much on spiritual objects." Lu Zhong estimated that once he finished refining the obsidian stone, the speed of Jiamu Lei Seal cultivation would be greatly slowed down until he found a new one.
As far as the obsidian stone.
In order for the Thunder Seal to have new changes, it is necessary to find other spiritual objects.
Such as Fantasy Orchid, Condensing Silver Marrow, etc.
Stop thinking too much, close your eyes and practice.
For a moment, lightning flashed in the cabin.
…
Departing at sunset, the fleet is expected to arrive at its destination at midnight.
Xuelong Pass is known as the most powerful pass in the Southern Barbarians.
This pass is located at the junction of the two domains. It is an important pass in the Snow Dragon Mountains that stretches for tens of thousands of miles. In front of it is the vast Yanzhen Domain Plain. If the Changchun Valley monk army starts from here, it can directly attack the Yanzhen Sect Mountain Gate.
The strategic position is very important.
It is precisely for this reason that Changchun Valley strengthened the protection of Guancheng as soon as the war started.
The Ye brothers and sisters are currently on the flying boat at the head of the fleet.
While observing the situation around him, he chatted casually.
"Brother, can you give some respect to Mr. Ye's family? Senior Lu seems to be very dissatisfied with you today!" Ye Mei said helplessly. Her brother is good at everything, but he is too feminine and looks like a woman.
"I see, aren't they changing?" Ye Yun tried his best to speak softly and said sweetly.
He couldn't blame him for this, it was all caused by accidentally eating a spiritual fruit when he was young.
Since then, I have become closer to the female body day by day.
"Alas..." Ye Mei sighed and said no more.
Taking out the map and comparing it, the fleet only needs to cross a few more ridges to reach Xuelong Pass.
Suddenly I caught a flash of light coming from the ridge in front.
"No, there's an ambush!" Ye Mei's expression suddenly changed and she shouted.
Ye Yun next to him reacted extremely quickly.
"Bang!" the warning fireworks exploded.
Almost at the same time, a large spiritual light lit up on the ridge ahead, and arrows of light suddenly erupted and shot out, rushing in like a rain of light, directly covering the entire fleet.
"Dang, Dang, Dang!" the alarm bell sounded loudly.
Lu Zhong was already on the deck, frowning as he watched the waves of light arrows coming.
"Senior, we have discovered a coalition battle formation ahead, please give us instructions!" A monk on the side interpreted the information sent by the Ye brothers and sisters and came over to report.
"Ignore them, the maximum output of the magic circle will go straight to Xuelong Pass!" Lu Zhong said calmly.
An attack like this flooding water poses no threat to the fleet, and cannot break through the shield of the airship at all.
He is not a young child who has never seen wind and rain, so he will naturally not get dizzy and be scared away.
Withstanding the barrage all over the sky, the fleet of spaceships passed quickly, and indeed no losses were suffered.
During the process, Lu Zhong had already blessed a corresponding spell.
Flying star air entrainment technique, star blessing technique, star gathering technique...
The aura of the whole person is rapidly increasing.
"Without the pill-forming monks to intercept, it seems like something really happened at Xuelong Pass." Lu Zhong chanted the incantation with a familiar hand, and while mobilizing his true energy to perform the Jiamu Thunder Technique, he was thinking about what happened to Xuelong Pass.
The fleet climbed up and soon crossed a mountain ridge.
A tragic scene appeared before everyone's eyes.
In the rusty wind, mixed with the overwhelming sounds of fighting, the battle at Xuelong Pass has become fierce.
The formation that could withstand the attacks of True Lord Nascent Soul for half a year was not activated for unknown reasons. The entire Snow Dragon Pass was plunged into flames of war, with monks risking their lives to fight in every inch of the land.
All kinds of spiritual lights flashed, and magical weapons were densely packed like raindrops.
The sounds of explosions and roars are endless.
In the sky, seven large and small airships were suspended, all flying the flags of the coalition forces, forming a circular formation.
There are monks on the ship casting spells and conducting targeted bombing on Xuelong Pass.
Sensing the arrival of the Changchun Valley fleet, the surfaces of the seven airships quickly lit up with auras, and soon transformed into a long snake formation, charging towards Lu Zhong's fleet that broke into the battlefield.
"Come up to me!" Lu Zhong ordered.
Judging from the current battle situation, the resistance at Xuelong Pass below is still relatively orderly.
It's obviously not time to collapse.
After some consideration, he decided to help.
It's not that Lu Zhong is reckless, it's just that if he doesn't save him now, he will definitely be troubled by Changchun Valley when he goes back. Since there is still a chance to save things, naturally he still has to fight for it.
Anyway, if he loses, he won't be afraid of not being able to escape.
In an instant, the two fleets began to engage in battle.
It is a "backward" gang-hopping war.
Although the war flying boat carries the word "war", in fact, its protection is better than that of ordinary flying boats. Its combat power cannot be compared with that of the Central-Earth Shaking Mountain Boat. With the Central-Earth controlling the flow of Hunyuan Cannon, the ship does not have sharp long-range attack methods.
Through the shield, no one can do anything to anyone.
Therefore, joining the gang and joining forces to fight has become the main way to determine the winner.
Just as the battle began, Lu Zhong raised his hand and fired a spell towards the opposite side.
"Crack!"
On the opposite deck, a thunder marsh appeared out of thin air.
Under the indiscriminate bombardment, the monks on the deck suffered heavy casualties.
An embarrassed figure flew out from inside, wearing a Hunyuan bun and dressing up as a Taoist. His body exuded the aura of the early stage of pill formation, and he was looking at Lu Zhong with a surprised look on his face.
Obviously, he didn't expect that he would meet Lei Xiu who mastered the thunder method here.
"It's not good! The Panshan Talisman that I practice is good at defense but not enough at attack. It is definitely no match for me." The Yanzhen Sect where Yue Xuan belongs is a Taoist sect, and the monks in the sect mostly practice Talisman offensive and defensive techniques.
It's said to be a talisman, but it's actually a collection of exquisite moves.
The moves are like spells, and they need to be activated by magic weapons, spiritual weapons, and magic weapons. Their power is slightly inferior to sword repair sword moves.
The advantage is that the training is not difficult, unlike sword cultivation, which requires a deep understanding of the way of the sword, and also involves the mysterious heart, sword, intention, and soul of the sword.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Without Yue Xuan to think too much, a bright red sword shadow flew towards him.
"Ding!" There was a crisp sound.
Yue Xuan waved the black-yellow heavy sword in his hand, and made a "Mountain-like Mountain" strike. A mountain-shaped shadow appeared behind him, blocking and deflecting the menacing blow.
At this time, Lu Zhong had arrived like a meteor.
Purple flames were attached to the left and right swords, and they slashed at the enemy quickly, but were blocked by another sword from the opponent. However, the flames still spattered out, and the fire quickly spread on the ship.
Looking around, two fleets were engaged in a fierce battle.
Both sides suffered casualties, and the battle was stalemate with no outcome in sight.
On the ground, Master Qingding saw the reinforcements appeared and the flying boats in the sky no longer attacked the ground. He finally breathed a sigh of relief and continued to fight against the incoming coalition forces.
This time Xuelong Pass was invaded and Guancheng was invaded. As the person in charge, he had an unshirkable responsibility.
Want to get rid of the guilt.
Not only do they have to repel the coalition forces, but they also have to decapitate one of the coalition forces who formed a pill.
Only in this way can the merit be offset.
Thinking of this, Master Qingding raised his hand.
He took out a purple thunder talisman. It was a third-grade high-grade "Thunder Talisman". Its power was comparable to a strike from the Fake Infant Realm. It had been a trump card that he had treasured for a long time. He had been reluctant to use it when he encountered crises several times before.
Now in order to clear away the guilt, I have no choice but to use it reluctantly.
The opponent's body-protecting Qi was already running low, and it was time for a thunderous strike.
The thunder talisman was activated, and a thunder column suddenly appeared.
There were also thunder and lightning exploding in the sky.
Lu Zhong was in trouble. Yue Xuan on the opposite side was like an iron turtle. The flying sword in his hand didn't appear to attack. He just defended and used one move after another without any attack.
No matter how he attacks, even if a thunderbolt hits him, he will look miserable but not suffer much damage.
"Forget it, just put it off."
Lu Zhong took his eyes back from the ground. Just now a coalition soldier had been killed. He expected that the situation of the battle would soon become clear, so he didn't need to waste more time.
Otherwise, if you push the opponent hard, you don't know what kind of counterattack will happen.
Immediately, he used Zhihong to entangle Yue Xuan.
As for the Star Mirror, it continuously gathers star power to strengthen and strengthen one's body. At the same time, it also selects the son of destiny and sends the accumulated mirror light to that person.
One, two...eleven.
Seeing Lu Zhong's killing spree, and seeing the Xuelong-affiliated troops below being defeated, Yue Xuan finally couldn't stand it any longer.
Crush a jade talisman and explode into fireworks in the air, accompanied by a sharp roar.
"Retreat, retreat quickly!"
As for the spaceship beneath me.
Most of the monks on the ship were killed by lightning during a confrontation. Now the cabin inside may have been occupied by monks from Changchun Valley, and the control has long since changed hands.
Yue Xuan stamped his feet, gritted his teeth and decided to give up.
The two fleets soon separated.
The party that lost control of the flying boat was unwilling to evacuate, and the monks from the side that did not capture the flying boat also took the initiative to leave, lest they wait for the shield of the flying boat to open and become trapped on the boat.
On the coalition side, two airships, one large and one small, were taken away, and one small ship was burned on the Changchun Valley side.
All we can say is that everyone has his own victory or defeat.
"Senior Lu, do you want to..." Fang Kuanhong leaned over and asked.
Glancing at him, Lu Zhong smiled secretly in his heart, but did not show it. He said loudly: "Give me the order. No one should pursue me. Let's get down to the ground and start repairing!"
Immediately he looked at the flying boat at his feet.
According to the usual capture rules, this ship should be his trophy.
Seeing that the fire on the ship was quite big, I hurriedly started to put out the fire to prevent it from being burned out and worth repairing.
As for the storage bags and other things, as well as the floating wealth that had not been taken away on the boat, Lu Zhong let his subordinates take it away as a reward for their heroic fighting.
By the way, I also want to win people's hearts.
Not long after, the airship that extinguished the fire landed smoothly on the ground.
Without waiting for Lu Zhong's instructions, the monks in the fleet who could still move began to treat the wounded or rescue themselves, or under the command of the boatswain, repair the damaged hull.
As for the severely damaged magic circle restrictions, you can only ask the magic circle master to repair them after returning to Changchun Fairy City.
Just as Lu Zhong was thinking about how to repair the flying boat, footsteps came from behind.
When he turned around and took a look, he found that it was Zhenren Qingding.
His hair on the temples was a little messy, and he had a strong smell of blood.
Seeing that it was Lu Zhong, Master Qingding's expression froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered, raised his hands and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Lu, thank you Fellow Daoist for coming to help!"
"No, I just happened to come over." Lu Zhong said modestly.
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while.
Master Qingding did not mention the matter of Ning Zhongyun, as if he never had this disciple.
Lu Zhong was also happy and relaxed, and started to make excuses with him.
Both parties were polite for a while.
It wasn't until a deacon came over that Master Qingding said goodbye and left.
Looking at the departing figure, a look of solemnity flashed in Lu Zhong's eyes. This kind of person is difficult to deal with. He can tolerate even his disciples being killed. In the novel, he would be either the protagonist or a giant.
"If there is a chance, it is best..."
As soon as the idea came up, he suppressed it.
Don't think about it anymore.
…
After being stranded at Xuelong Pass for half a month, the fleet set sail again.
After returning to Changchun Fairy City safely, the formation master who had been waiting for a long time immediately boarded the ship and began to repair the formation restrictions on the flying boat, which would take at least three to five months.
The flying boat captured by Lu Zhong is even older, and it is conservatively estimated that it will take half a year to repair.
The repair cost hundreds of thousands, but even so it was still a huge profit. A hundred-foot flying boat was worth a lot of money, let alone a war flying boat, which cost at least half a million spiritual stones.
From Changchun Valley, pills and spiritual stones were also sent, worth tens of thousands of spiritual stones.
It can be said that this trip has made a lot of money.
Taking advantage of the time, he returned to Lintao Pavilion.
The days passed day by day.
The war is getting fiercer and fiercer, with no sign of stopping.
The two sides fought vigorously around the spirit stone mine, each suffering a large number of casualties. The list of casualties posted on the notice board on Changchun Street every day was at least in the triple digits.
Most of them are casual cultivators hired, or monks from families or sects attached to Changchun Valley, and a small number are disciples of Changchun Valley.
During this period, Changchun Fairy City was also attacked.
Several large workshops were blown up to the sky, and every workshop owner suffered heavy losses. Among them was the Tobu Alchemy Workshop, which suffered the most damage. It was said that it was almost razed to the ground.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This is true even in the city, let alone outside the city.
Raw material production areas were attacked everywhere.
Some successfully resisted, while others were completely burned.
Under this situation, even the Chengde Chamber of Commerce suffered a disaster, and the two farms became a wasteland.
In the courtyard, Lu Zhong was drinking tea with Yu Feng'er.
"Husband, do you think if this continues, will it turn into a war between the two regions?" Yu Feng'er had a worried look in her eyes.
Lu Zhong also has this worry. The war between the two regions is no joke.
In the original war between the three sects, tens of thousands of monks died, and the number of mortals was thousands of times more. It can no longer be described as a loss of lives. If the Nascent Soul Sect really went into full-scale war, I am afraid that the flames of war would spread throughout the entire Southern Barbarians.
Under such circumstances, it is simply impossible to practice with peace of mind.
"I hope things won't be so bad." Lu Zhong thought for a while before replying.
The cause of this war was just a fight for a spiritual stone mine.
Logically speaking, the fight shouldn't have gone to this level.
"I really don't know what those True Lords are thinking in their hearts."
The will of the true king is the will of the sect.
As long as the Nascent Soul Master who controls the sect wants to continue the fight, the sect's chariot can only keep moving forward, either crushing the opponent or the sect falling apart, and there is no possibility of braking on its own.
…
Half a year passed in the blink of an eye.
The repair progress of the flying boat is slower than expected.
It won't be fixed until tomorrow.
During this period of time, Lu Zhong has completed refining the Yao Lei Stone.
The Jiamu Thunder Technique has improved a lot and can condense the Jiamu Thunder Talisman with great power.
The war is still escalating, and both sides continue to increase investment.
The dead monks have become a number. Not only are there monks in the Qi Refining Stage, but also true cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage. The Linking Pill monks will also occasionally appear on it. The list is getting longer day by day.
Lu Zhong couldn't help but feel lucky that his judgment was correct and he avoided the most intense moment.
But when I think about setting off soon, I still feel a little nervous.
As far as he knew, more and more spaceship fleets were being attacked, and many of them were shot down and destroyed.
In this case, sailing is really not a good choice.
"Ningwufang City..."
This is the next place the fleet will go.
Ningwufang City is located in the southwest of the Changchun Region. It is a Xiaofang City located at the junction of the three regions. It is shrouded in thick fog all year round. Today, a distress letter came from there, saying that it was besieged by the sudden appearance of coalition forces.
The task of the fleet is not only to transport reinforcements, but also to stay and help defend for a year.
"Assist in defense, I hope nothing will happen." Lu Zhongmo thought.
Early the next morning, he arrived at the pier.
The originally smoky flying boat has now been repainted, and its appearance looks brand new. The originally damaged magic circle restrictions have been repaired by the magic circle master and restored to their original appearance.
There are many new faces in the team, which means that many people stayed at Xuelong Pass forever last time.
His eyes passed over Fang Kuanhong and Xie Yu. During this period, the two were "busy as hell" and kept in touch with the spies from the coalition forces who had infiltrated into the city. After he reported the matter to the Changchun Valley authorities, over there
It was decided to let Lu Zhongjing observe the changes, and a newly sent Changchun Valley Foundation Architect was responsible for monitoring.
This person's name is Fang Qing, and he has a sinister face, as if he is specially used to deal with dirty things.
Lu Zhong had been in contact with Fang Qing several times, and always felt that he was a poisonous snake that chose people to eat.
"If you have a chance, you might as well kill him accidentally."
Otherwise, it would be really uncomfortable to stay with him all the time.
After the supplies were replenished, the fleet slowly took off.
Lu Zhong waved his hand and said goodbye to Yu Feng'er. This silly bitch is not easy to worry about even when it comes to Foundation Establishment. A serious practitioner of Foundation Establishment can even cry with tears in her face.
He had no choice but to send a message to comfort her, not to worry, he would be back soon.
…
"Bang bang bang!"
A series of spells exploded in the air.
Two days after setting out, the fleet encountered a group of storm eagles.
This group of flat-haired beasts has a strong sense of territory, and the fleet began to be attacked as soon as it entered the range.
At this moment, under the leadership of the third-level Storm Eagle King, a huge group of eagles launched a fierce attack on the fleet, spitting out wind blades that were as dense as raindrops.
The monk counterattacked, casting spells one after another.
The attack by the eagles did not stop until the fleet completely left the Storm Eagle territory.
What follows is a peaceful voyage.
The fleet is flying on the sea of clouds, and the sky is clear and clear, making you feel comfortable.
Except for the monks on duty, everyone else was barbecuing and eating meat on the deck at this time.
Storm hawk meat has extraordinary effects. Eating it can strengthen your qi and blood, and it can also heal some minor ailments. It is not easy to hunt storm hawks in normal times. At this moment, both of them are feasting on it.
Lu Zhong is no exception.
As an alchemy monk, he couldn't go out and influence others, so he stayed in the cabin.
Sprinkle with elixir powder and it tastes crisp but not woody.
Eat big mouthfuls of meat and drink big bowls of wine.
This feels so good!
There was an untimely knock on the door, and Lu Zhong's expression turned cold.
"come in."
Jie Yu pushed the door open and came in, holding a plate of golden and crispy barbecue in his hand. His seemingly normal expression was mixed with a trace of nervousness that was difficult to conceal. A smile naturally appeared on his face and he said with a smile:
"Senior, this is the spiritual meat and spiritual wine that Master Yu has roasted. Please enjoy it."
During this fleet trip, in addition to Lu Zhong, who was responsible for guarding the fleet, there was also Yu Xiaoqing, an alchemy-forming monk from Changchun Valley, who was a veteran golden elixir master in the middle stage of alchemy-forming.
In the presence of good meat and wine, Lu Zhong sneered, looked at Xie Yu and said:
"Do you know why you were sent here?"
Hearing this, Xie Yu's heart trembled.
But he still suppressed his uneasiness, lowered his head and said: "Junior doesn't know, senior please make it clear!"
"It means that you are no longer useful." Lu Zhong said lightly.
As he spoke, his eyes passed over the poisoned wine and meat.
This woman must have been aware of it in her heart, otherwise she would not have chosen this crude method of poisoning, and she might have wanted to make a last-ditch effort.
On the opposite side, Xie Yu knew that he had been exposed, otherwise Lu Zhong would not have spoken like this.
Just as she was about to say something, Fang Qing had already opened the door and walked in. Without even looking at Jie Yu, he cupped his hands and said, "Senior, the position of the fleet has been reported. Do you want to start closing the net now?"
"Yeah." Lu Zhong nodded.
Hearing this, Fang Qing turned to look at Jie Yu and smiled sadly: "Fang Kuanhong has committed suicide. Do you want to do it yourself or let me help?"
The latter laughed miserably, raised his head and drank a bottle of medicine, and lost his breath after a few breaths.
"Next time, remember, don't let anyone die in front of me!" Lu Zhong frowned. It was common for people to die in battles between two sects, but it didn't mean that he wanted to see dead people.
"It's the junior who didn't think carefully. Please forgive me, the senior."
"Take the body away." Lu Zhong decided in his heart that if there was a chance in the future, he would definitely send this person away. This person was not a good bird, and there would be no psychological burden if he killed him.
"Yes." Fang Qing waved his hand, smiled, and put the body together with the poison, wine, and meat into the storage bag.
He said goodbye and turned around to go out.
After performing several cleaning techniques, Lu Zhong looked at the food and wine on the table, feeling that he no longer had any appetite.
"That's all, we're about to enter an ambush, so we should make some preparations in advance."
Sitting cross-legged on the futon, he began to condense the Jiamu Lei Talisman.
Using thunder crystals pressed into thin sheets as a carrier, the condensation process of the Jiamu Thunder Talisman is quite simple, but it consumes a lot of mana and spiritual consciousness. Only three of them made Lu Zhong exhausted.
"Three pieces are enough."
Then he meditated and adjusted his breathing, and quickly recovered.
…
Yanyunling.
The only place you must pass when heading to Ningwufang City.
A large number of coalition monks are lurking here.
The leader is Hua Yi Guan Lian Jian Zhenren, who belongs to the lineage of Taoism and was once a member of Hua Yi Qizi. He is wearing a blue and green Taoist robe and a jade crown on his head. He is a Taoist priest who looks like an immortal.
Must be middle-aged.
Sitting cross-legged next to him is a pill-forming monk. He is Yue Cang, a master of the Yanzhen Sect, who practices the Golden Yao Talisman. He is also a swordsman. He has a weather-beaten middle-aged face, with messy sideburns and a loose robe, which makes people feel more...
Like a bohemian knight-errant.
Both of them are in the early stages of pill formation.
At this moment, one person is meditating while making hand gestures, while the other person is standing and stroking the sword.
"Yue Cang, who do you think will kill the opponent first?" Master Lianjian looked at Yue Cang. The two have been friends for many years. They often get together to compete in swordsmanship, and sometimes they are competitive with each other.
"Of course it's me." Yue Cang said without giving in.
Wu Wu Er, the two have been fighting for a long time, and now is the opportunity.
"Whoever kills his opponent first will be his brother, how about that?"
"It's a deal, haha!" Lian Jian stroked his beard and laughed.
The road to immortality is cold and cold, and I am truly lucky to have such a well-matched Taoist companion.
While the two were talking, a fleet of ships was approaching at great speed in the distance.
