Things after returning to the mountain are no longer in Xu Chen's hands.
Zhenren Huayang is a cultivator in the late Danyuan realm. Although he suffered a strong backlash from the formation and was severely injured, his breath is still stable. After Zhenjun Xuanchen saw it, he had someone feed him a few pills and then sent him to a quiet room for training.
.
Xu Wen's soul suffered heavy damage, and his aura was extremely weak, and he was on the verge of death. However, the Taiyuan Soul-Entering Pill was just the right medicine for him. After feeding him one pill, the third elder took action to help him refine his aura, and his aura soon became stronger.
Quite a few, it should be regarded as saving a life.
The least injured person was Lan You.
However, the vitality was over-consumed and almost exhausted. The soul was violently shaken after being impacted by the giant spider's roar. The aura of the soul was scattered, but there was no fear of life. After taking a few spiritual pills, he was sent to Zhao Xuan's small courtyard for rest.
.
After a fierce battle, Xu Chen almost lost all his energy, so he went straight back to his cabin and began to recuperate.
At this time, Taiyuanmen already had a huge field hospital. Except for Xu Chen's remote and dilapidated hut, the small courtyard where all the brothers and sisters rested was filled with injured monks. Among them, low-level monks from the Kaiyuan realm
Cultivation is the main thing.
Fortunately, the two sects of Yuqing Palace and Longmen Mountain were very generous this time. Not only did they send the most people, they also brought a large number of elixirs, magic weapons and various supplies. In addition, they also brought several people who were proficient in alchemy and healing.
The True Yuan realm doctors and alchemists, the logistics are very good, and everyone has received good treatment and care.
However, the huge casualties caused by this operation still made everyone feel nervous and uneasy.
The total number of dead monks alone now totals nearly fifty, many of whom are powerful in the True Essence Realm.
Especially today, when the giant spider broke through the formation and launched a sudden attack, eight True Yuan Realm disciples of Yuqing Palace were killed in one go. This loss made the elders of Yuqing Palace almost want to vomit blood.
So many corpses were placed in the square outside the Shanmen Hall. They were so densely packed that many of them were so mangled that they could hardly be seen in human form.
In addition, there were several others who had been torn to pieces or even devoured by the spirit beasts, and even their corpses could not be found.
In other words, so far, nearly 10% of the monks involved in this operation have died.
This is an extremely scary number.
In the entire Song Dynasty immortal world for more than a thousand years, there has never been a record of so many monks dying at one time.
And this loss is destined to bring great shock to the immortal world of the Song Dynasty, and many small sects and casual cultivator families have simply disappeared.
Therefore, the entire Taiyuan Sect was enveloped in an aura of sadness.
However, after experiencing such tragic casualties, the two formations were finally stabilized.
In order to prevent another accident, True Lord Xuanchen decided to go to Black Wind Ridge to guard the area in person, and at the same time began to distribute a large amount of elixirs to replenish the situation.
As a result, the remaining monks who were still killing the soul beasts in Black Wind Ridge also felt a lot more relaxed.
Another day passed in the blink of an eye, and the soul beasts outside the core area of Black Wind Ridge were basically cleared away. Except for a few who escaped, there were very few soul beasts to be seen.
The speed of the black wind ejected from the gap continued to weaken, and it was only a thousand feet high. The number of soul beasts ejected was also decreasing sharply, but the black air had spread to an area thousands of miles in radius, and the diffuse black mist was like a huge pot lid.
, covering the entire Heifeng Ridge with a diameter of more than a hundred miles.
Animals and plants all over the mountains and plains began to die. Wherever the black wind went, except for some powerful beasts and monsters and spiritual beasts, it almost became a dead land.
The flowing black mist continued to overflow along the ravines and valleys, and it was less than ten miles away from the nearest Nanyang City.
In addition, a small number of spirit beasts have begun to appear near Nanyang City. Mortal villages have been attacked, and many people and livestock have died.
In order to prevent too many mortal casualties, Taiyuan Sect arranged for a group of monks to start patrolling near Nanyang City, and at the same time notified the city lord to start evacuating the people.
For a moment, the usually prosperous and peaceful Nanyang City was filled with cries, and refugees in oxcarts and carriages fled in panic in droves.
If the black mist cannot be prevented from spreading in time, Nanyang City will become a dead end in at most one day.
Fortunately, on the third day, Zhenjun Chixia, who had gone out to search for news, rushed back first. After personally stabilizing the Five Elements Formation, he once again set up a Breeze Returning Cloud Formation on the edge of the mountains in southern Xinjiang near the Wild Wolf Valley.
Block the black wind and continue to spread towards Nanyang City.
The Qingfeng Guiyun Formation is just a simple second-level formation, without any defensive or lethality, but it can continuously generate flowing wind and blow the black mist deep into the southern border.
As a result, the threat to Nanyang City was temporarily lifted.
In the next two days, True Lord Baiyun, True Lord Yuyang and True Lord Taiwu rushed back one after another.
After learning about the huge accident and heavy losses in Heifeng Ridge, Ye Gudu's face changed color and his heart was shaken. At the same time, he sighed and lamented that this time he handled it carefully and promptly, so that it did not lead to a greater disaster.
Because according to the news reported by the four true kings who were out, several countries around the Song Dynasty were actually affected by the black wind. The losses in the fairy world and the mortal world in each country were not small, not to mention the Kaiyuan Realm and the True Yuan Realm, and even the Danyuan Realm.
They all lost a lot.
The Ming Dynasty, whose strength is similar to that of the Song Dynasty, currently has three black wind leaks, and they did not attract attention at first. By the time they were discovered, they were completely out of control. Thousands of soul beasts had appeared in the mortal world, and various immortal sects felt that
It was already too late when the situation was serious and they started to unite to suppress it. The black wind spread in several places with a radius of thousands of miles. In order to kill the soul beasts and suppress the black wind passage, the Ming Dynasty lost three powerful men in the Danyuan realm.
The True Yuan Realm and Kaiyuan Realm cannot be counted.
The most tragic casualties are undoubtedly the Immortal Sect of the Eastern Wasteland Realm, which has already lost one great monk of the Transformation Realm and four strong men of the Danyuan Realm. Although no more news will come out in the future, the number of deaths of middle and low-level monks will definitely be even more terrifying.
.
The Eastern Wasteland is incredibly huge, thousands of miles away in both vertical and horizontal directions, but the scale of the black wind emitted by Xuyuan is more than a hundred times larger than that of the Black Wind Ridge. It is almost like a big hole has been opened in the sea, and even the sea water is sprayed thousands of feet by the black wind.
High in the sky, with a radius of hundreds of miles, there was a sea of sky hanging upside down. From a distance, it looked like the end of the world was coming. It was so terrifying that even True Monarch Chixia was heartbroken.
At present, almost half of the entire Eastern Wasteland is shrouded in black smoke, the sea water is also black, and the soul beasts are all over the sea and sky. The mortals during this period are almost dead. As for the monks, except for some strong ones, they can escape.
The number of casualties was negligible, and the casualties were at least in the thousands.
Therefore, this operation of the Song Dynasty seemed to have suffered heavy losses, but in comparison, it was the smallest among all countries.
With the return of several True Lords one after another, all the immortal sects and monks who came to participate in the encirclement and suppression of the soul beasts felt as if they had taken a reassurance, and their emotions suddenly became high.
Especially after learning about the experiences of the surrounding countries, the atmosphere became more enthusiastic, sweeping away the pain and depression brought about by the heavy casualties in the previous few days.
Although we suffered heavy casualties, the Ming Kingdom and Donghuang seemed to be even worse.
After a simple misfortune comparison, everyone discovered that it was actually the Immortal World of Song that gained the most and sacrificed the least this time.
As a result, hundreds of monks were jubilant in the entire Taiyuan Sect and the two formation gathering areas.
The core figure who brought about this major turning point and change in the world of immortals and mortals in the Song Dynasty was neither the five true kings nor a certain peerless genius, but Xu Chen, the youngest and poorest disciple of the Taiyuan Sect.
So about how Xu Chen injured Master Yulong in the capital, and then killed the monks of the Ziyang Sect of the Ming Dynasty. A few months ago, he had a bet with the disciples of Yuqing Palace and entered the Black Wind Ridge Caves, and finally brought back the ancient beast that guarded the Netherworld Passage.
Escape, the True Immortal's notification that the Netherworld Passage will be opened, a large number of soul beasts will appear, etc., have all become hot topics in the fairy world.
In addition, three days ago, Xu Chen forcibly blocked the giant spider soul beast that broke the formation in the Black Wind Ridge Five Elements Formation. Lan You, the fourth-generation core female disciple of the Yuqing Palace, had cultivation levels of the True Yuan Realm and the Kaiyuan Realm respectively.
After stabilizing the Five Elements Formation, he finally gained the opportunity for True Lord Xuanchen to take action, and only then could he achieve the final victory.
Therefore, in just two or three days, Xu Chen's name became popular in the immortal world of the Song Dynasty.
And he, a young monk whose cultivation was only at the late stage of the Kaiyuan Realm, actually became a target that all the immortal sects and casual cultivators, big and small, wanted to get to know.
After this battle, not only did the Taiyuan Sect gain strength under the two blows of True Lord Xuanchen, it finally established its true status as the third largest immortal sect in the Song Dynasty.
Xu Chen also became famous. Many young female cultivators even began to flirt with him secretly, inviting him to drink tea and discuss Taoism with him or to go to two large formations to kill monsters. Even many elders of immortal sects began to
Blending with True Lord Xuanchen and the two elders, he wanted to marry the sects, and introduced an outstanding female disciple of his sect to Xu Chen as a Taoist companion.
Regarding these changes and news, Xu Chen couldn't laugh or cry. He could only hide in his small dilapidated wooden house all day long. He told the outside world that he suffered severe injuries after a battle with the giant spider soul beast and needed to retreat to heal his injuries.
Two days later, the five True Lords worked together to reinforce the two formations again, and after setting up a second circle of enchantment formations, trap formations, clear wind flowing cloud formations and other auxiliary formations on the periphery, the black mist finally spread to a large scale.
After being contained, the small number of spirit beasts that continued to appear finally stopped escaping to the surrounding mountains and fields. Only in this way can this huge disaster truly stabilize the situation.
The next task is to use these two formations as strongholds to arrange for immortal sects and monks to take turns to clean up and kill soul beasts all year round. This will not only serve as a training ground for immortal monks, but also allow them to continuously obtain soul beads.
