After repelling the Hongshan Sect monks, Taoist Jin Lan was not prepared to counterattack immediately.
There are still few foundation-building monks of the Qingxuan Sect here in Chaoyin Mountain. Just relying on a few Zifu monks cannot cause serious harm to the Hongshan Sect monks who occupy the advantageous location.
Even if you were a little careless, you would fall into the trap set by the Hongshan Sect monks, causing serious losses.
Moreover, the Qingxuan Sect’s base camp is near the Southern Wilderness, so they cannot give up all the spiritual veins in the Southern Wilderness to destroy the Hongshan Sect at the northern foot of the Duanyun Mountain Range.
Even if Qingxuan Sect mobilizes all its forces, it will be difficult to break through Hongshan Sect's mountain-protecting formation, and it will cause serious casualties. It will be Nanlu Pavilion and Huanshui Sect who will get the advantage.
Moreover, Qingxuanzong was not without losses in this battle. Because of He Zhenze's deathbed counterattack, Lu Hongniang had also damaged some of her vitality. She was already on the verge of forming a pill, and she did not dare to suffer a major loss of vitality at this time, so next
She can no longer participate in the battle.
Moreover, Hu Peiyu was the one whose body was taken away by the Jindan monks, and Luo Hanying did not dare to be in the limelight anymore. After this battle, she would return to Qingxuan Sect to guard the mountain gate.
Therefore, the Zifu monks who can attack the northern foot of the Duanyun Mountain Range may still only be able to mobilize five or six people.
As for the Hongshan Sect's Zifu, even though Mu Huaishan was seriously injured and unable to take action, there are still only eight people. Therefore, after moving north to the Duanyun Mountains, the Qingxuan Sect monks will probably continue to work steadily to weaken the Hongshan Sect as much as possible. Instead of doing a one-shot deal, they will have to do it all at once.
Exterminated the Hongshan Sect.
After driving away the Hongshan Sect monks, the Chaoyin Mountain monks began to count the casualties and look for surviving personnel.
In just half an hour after the monks of the Hongshan Sect attacked, more than half of the low-level monks in Chaoyin Mountain were killed or injured.
There were a total of forty foundation-building monks on the mountain, and twenty-three died this time, and more than ninety of the two hundred Qi-training monks died.
After the Hongshan Sect monks went up the mountain, they mainly rounded up the monks in the foundation building stage and only spent very little energy looking for those in the Qi training stage.
However, the monks in the foundation-building stage could release their spiritual consciousness, and some unlucky monks in the qi-training stage were still found. By the time Lu Hongniang and Hu Peiyu took down their opponents, more than 90 of these qi-training stage monks from the five major families had been killed.
Compared with other families, the Zhang family had slightly better luck, losing only eleven people and less than half of the casualties. Among the eleven people killed in the battle, there was also an elder at the ninth level of Qi training, the seventeenth uncle Zhang Meng
sickle.
Uncle Seventeen's spiritual roots were not very good. He managed to reach the ninth level of Qi training before he was sixty years old. He died on Chaoyin Mountain less than ten years after becoming an elder. He had very bad luck in this battle.
, just after hiding, he was noticed by a Hongshan Sect foundation-building monk. During the fight, he was no match at all, and he died miserably in the hands of the opponent.
Even the corpse had been cut into more than a dozen pieces and had long since lost its human shape. The surviving monks at home could only reluctantly sew up his body and prepare to transport it back to Tiantai Peak for burial in the family cemetery.
Most of the family monks who followed Zhang Zhixuan to Chaoyin Mountain this time were monks of the Zhizi generation. Basically, they were monks above the middle stage of Qi training who had achieved some achievements.
Having lost more than a dozen people at once, the backbone of the family has already lost some blood.
The last time the Zhang family suffered such heavy casualties was the Battle of Xihefang more than thirty years ago. In that battle, nine people from the Zhang family died, including Zhang Mengquan, the alchemist who was very important to the family at the time.
The Zhang family has had almost constant bad luck in the past hundred years. Every thirty years, they will encounter a war, causing many casualties for many years.
Thirty years ago, they were involved in the battle for Xihefang. Sixty years ago, they were attacked by the enemy on Jiuhua Mountain. Ninety years ago, the monsters of the Southern Wilderness invaded. The monks in the entire three southeastern counties were about to fall into chaos.
Every thirty years, when a war breaks out, some people will die as soon as the backbone of the family grows up.
But the Zhang family is not the most unlucky family. There are currently three monks in the foundation-building stage in their family, and they also have two foundation-building pills. They will still have good luck for at least two to three hundred years.
The one with the worst luck was the Ma family who discovered the Lingshi Mine. Although Ma Jimin managed to escape from the encirclement with the help of Zhang Zhixuan and others. However, he had bad luck and insufficient cultivation. He had just escaped from the encirclement, and soon encountered him again.
The monks of the Hongshan Sect were besieged by several foundation-building monks of the Hongshan Sect and soon died.
Although the Ma family discovered the spirit stone mine and mined some spirit stones, the family's strength was not enough. Not only were the Liushou tribesmen in Jiufeng Mountain exterminated by the monks of the Hongshan Sect, but the monks stationed in Chaoyin Mountain also suffered heavy casualties.
Up to now, only sixteen members of their family have survived, and most of these members are elderly monks.
Even if Qingxuanzong rewarded his merits and gave him the foundation-building pill, it would be difficult for the Ma family's monks to succeed in building the foundation. Without the foundation-building monks stationed, they could not provide monks to protect the Lingshi mine. The Ma family's shares in the Chaoyin Mountain Lingshi mine
It will definitely not be saved.
Although this spirit stone mine was discovered by the Ma family, for this family, the spirit stone mine in Chaoyin Mountain is a disaster.
After the war, Patriarch Jin took Hu Peiyu back to Qingxuanzong Mountain Gate, and the remaining Zifu monks were temporarily stationed in Chaoyin Mountain, preparing to mobilize personnel and materials to invade Jiangkou County in one fell swoop.
In the past few days, Zhang Zhixuan was most concerned about post-war rewards.
After the war, the Zifu monks of the Qingxuan Sect seized more than sixty storage bags belonging to the Hongshan Sect monks. The resources in the storage bags of these Hongshan Sect monks would of course be used to provide compensation and reward.
If the pensions and rewards are not generous, how can there be monks working for Qingxuan Sect in the future?
Soon, Qingxuanzong came up with the pension regulations. Whenever a monk in the foundation-building period died in battle, Qingxuanzong would give a foundation-building pill to their family members.
Even if there is no stock now, Qingxuan Sect will issue a token. With the token, you can wait in line inside Qingxuan Sect.
Twenty-three foundation-building monks were killed in this battle, and most of them, except Ma Jimin, were members of the Qingxuan Sect.
Among the twenty-two Qingxuan Sect's foundation-building monks, four have family members who are just ordinary mortals. Although their families are taken care of by Qingxuanzong, without monks, Qingxuanzong does not need to give them foundation-building pills.
Qingxuanzong only had ten Foundation Building Pills in stock, and they gave them to the top ten people on the spot, including the Ma family.
If the monks of the Ma family in Jiufeng Mountain can use this foundation-building pill to build the foundation, they can also save the spirit stone mine in Chaoyin Mountain.
If the foundation building fails and there are no monks in the foundation building period to protect the spirit stone mine, they will lose their shares in the spirit stone mine.
Even the third-level low-grade spiritual vein Jiufeng Mountain will arouse the jealousy of casual cultivators.
I'm afraid that the Ma family can only receive part of the rewards from the Qingxuan Sect and give up their share of the spirit stone mine, and all the family monks will join the Qingxuan Sect.
Their tribesmen in the mortal world did not have the protection of monks, nor did they have the strength to move to the vicinity of Qingxuan Sect as a whole.
The only option is to change the surname and be under the protection of another family.
