The Qingxuan Sect of the Yu State had Liu Guyan's help in killing the Sky-Swallowing Toad and survived the monster chaos relatively smoothly. However, the monks of the Baihong Mountain in the neighboring Li State did not have such good luck.
This time, a total of two fifth-level monsters came within Baihongshan's sphere of influence. The sudden increase in power caught Baihongshan off guard. In just one year, although the monsters were repelled, the sect also suffered losses.
Compared with Qingxuan Sect, the three Zifu monks can be said to have injured their muscles and bones.
Liu Guyan beheaded the Sky-Swallowing Toad and captured the fifth-level Spiritual Vein Heavenly Toad Cave. This matter was quite secretive. Even the Qingxuan Sect monks who were close to the Southern Wilderness did not know the details at all.
Tian Toad Cave is located in the depths of the Southern Wilderness. This place is desolate and uninhabited. There are no human monks for tens of thousands of miles nearby. The monks of Qingxuan Sect do not dare to go deep into the nearby area to collect spiritual objects and inquire about the details of Tian Toad Cave.
Liu Guyan was very secretive when he came to Nanhuang. He did not alert the Xuansu Sect monks, and naturally he did not alert Yang Xuanzhen. Moreover, even if he found out the news about Liu Guyan, Yang Xuanzhen would not act rashly if he was not completely sure.
She was defeated in Longjiang County many years ago and she almost died at the hands of Liu Lingjun. After this incident, Yang Xuanzhen was very careful and did not dare to leave the mountain gate easily.
It was because she received intelligence and found out the traces of Liu Guyan and Sun Qingcheng's two golden elixirs that she rushed to Longjiang County, where she met Liu Lingjun, who had been waiting for a long time.
If he hadn't been quick to spot the opportunity and quickly run away after realizing that he was outnumbered, Yang Xuanzhen might not have been able to save his life once Liu Lingjun ruthlessly sacrificed the Purple Sun Sky Fire Talisman.
Liu Guyan's information has not been leaked, so naturally no one will put suspicion on the Zhang family.
Since the Monster Rebellion, ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.
In the past ten years, the Qingxuan Sect, Hongshan Sect, and Nanlu Pavilion monks were all licking their wounds and did not bother to start another war. The Yu Kingdom finally ushered in a period of peace.
Although the Southern Wilderness monsters have retreated, the Iron-backed Blue Ape is still wandering around Guiyuan Mountain, hoping to take back his spiritual veins at any time.
Because of several losses in a row, this fifth-level monster has become quite shrewd and will only attack opponents with lower cultivation levels than it.
With this demonic beast in check, the connection between Guiyuan Mountain and Qingxuan Sect was almost cut off. Even the masters of the Zifu period did not dare to leave the range of Guiyuan Mountain's mountain protection formation easily, lest they be attacked by the Iron-backed Cang Yuan.
Unless this monster is eliminated, Lu Hongniang will not dare to leave Guiyuan Mountain for too long.
During the monster chaos ten years ago, Qingxuan Sect abandoned several fourth-level spiritual vessels. In recent years, as the fifth-level monsters retreated, they were gradually recovered by the sect.
However, the buildings on Lingshan Mountain have long been destroyed by monsters, and the defensive formations also need to be repaired. These are all major projects. Even Qingxuan Sect, a large sect with a strong family background, also spent seven or eight years of effort.
Since the Qingjiao escaped, the spiritual veins of Black Mountain have been relatively stable, and the invasion of monsters has been repelled. The Zhang family has also successfully established a foothold in Black Mountain. After the war, Zhang Leqian, Su Heng and other monks from the three counties left Black Mountain and returned to Black Mountain.
He went to practice in the three southeastern counties.
Zhang Zhixuan, Qing Chan, and Han Yan built the cave in Heishan, preparing to stay in this spiritual vein for a long time.
Black Mountain is a fourth-level mid-grade spiritual vein. The spiritual energy on the mountain is very sufficient. Zhang Zhixuan's Sanzi Mansion cultivation level is not high yet. There is no need to find another spiritual mountain to open a cave for the time being.
Within ten years, Qingchan's cultivation had continuously broken through two levels, and it had been three years since he had reached the fourth level of Zi Mansion.
Since entering the Purple Mansion Realm, Qing Chan's cultivation speed has increased by leaps and bounds. Even Han Yan and Zhang Zhixuan are considered to be very good, but their cultivation progress has been left behind by her, falling far behind.
She opened the Purple Mansion at the age of seventy-two, cultivated to the second floor of the Purple Mansion at the age of seventy-nine, cultivated to the third floor of the Purple Mansion at the age of eighty-five, and cultivated to the fourth floor of the Purple Mansion at the age of ninety-three. It seems that she has another three to five years of hard work.
, you can catch up with the veteran Qingxuanzong monks.
For an average Zifu monk, it takes more than ten or twenty years for his cultivation to reach one level. If his vitality is damaged during this period, his efforts may be delayed even more.
For example, Wei Bohan, although he cultivated to Zifu ten years earlier than Qingchan, because of his serious injury ten years ago, his cultivation level is still on the second floor of Zifu, and he has been left far behind by Qingchan.
Another example is Zhao Xinlian, who was severely injured by the green dragon back then, and the surveillance of Hu Boyu delayed her path. Although sixty years have passed, her cultivation level has only improved one level. She is only at the sixth level of the Purple Mansion now. I am afraid it will take more than ten years.
, and was caught up by Qingchan.
Even Wu Sixeng, who opened the Zifu for 130 years, is only at the fifth level of the Zifu. In terms of magical power, he may not be Qingchan's opponent now.
In the past ten years, Han Yan's cultivation level has also improved relatively quickly. He broke through to the third floor of Zifu some time ago and was not pushed too far away by Qingchan.
She is a spiritual root monk, and monks with this kind of spiritual root can practice very quickly. Basically, they can advance to one level within ten years of the Purple Mansion period.
It has been exactly 20 years since Han Yan opened the Zifu. She has not learned any of the arts of cultivating immortals. She only focuses on the path. Unfortunately, due to her spiritual root qualifications, at this stage of the Zifu period, they can no longer keep up.
Qingchan’s footsteps.
Zhang Zhixuan's spiritual roots are even worse. Although he has a very good understanding due to practicing the purple qi technique and rarely encounters bottlenecks, it took him fourteen years to enter the Zifu and he only broke through the first level some time ago and practiced to
Second floor of Zifu.
In the past ten years, the three Zifu monks of the Zhang family have made progress on their path, which has rapidly increased the momentum of the Zhang family and has left the Wu family far behind.
Because Zhang Zhixuan and the others killed two fourth-level monsters in the battle in the Southern Wilderness, Qingxuan Sect rewarded Zhang Zhixuan with two more foundation-building pills after refining them. These two foundation-building pills were also placed in the family by Zhang Zhixuan.
Since the Zhang family opened the Zi Mansion, due to the two wars of capturing Guiyuan Mountain and the Southern Wilderness Monster Rebellion, in order to commend Zhang Zhixuan and the others for their meritorious service, the Qingxuan Sect has successively given five Foundation Building Pills.
Behind each Foundation Establishment Pill is a fourth-level monster hunted by the Zhang Family's Sanzi Mansion. Unfortunately, this kind of explosive income will no longer be available with the end of the Southern Wilderness Monster Beast Rebellion.
Because of the end of the war, some monks from Black Mountain have returned. Many casual cultivators without spiritual veins have returned to Black Mountain and are preparing to establish a foothold here. As the number of people increases, the spiritual rice on Black Mountain begins to be insufficient.
However, because the gap is not large, Zhang Zhixuan is no longer planning to continue transporting spiritual rice from Taicheng County, but is planning to open up spiritual fields and hunt low-level monsters near Black Mountain to make up for the lack of resources.
Black Mountain is very far away from Taicheng County. The straight-line distance is tens of thousands of miles. If we take some detours, the distance will be more than 100,000 miles. Even for monks in the Qi training stage, it will take five or six months to walk.
This large piece of territory is actually more suitable for human settlement, but there are countless low-level monsters within this 100,000-mile radius. Even if there are monks in charge, if these low-level monsters are not killed and eliminated, the population will not be able to develop.
stand up.
After the war, Zhang Zhixuan already had a plan in mind. He would gradually develop this place within a hundred years and kill monsters to create a pure land for his family.
