They said they were going to start a war, but there was no movement in the door, obviously they were still waiting for the opportunity.
Affected by the war atmosphere, even Zhou Hong, who had become a little slack in his practice, became diligent and diligent. He resolutely stayed in seclusion for more than half a month, and finally broke through the seventh level of Qi training and progressed to the eighth level.
There are only two steps left to build the foundation.
The whole summer passed by in such a busy way.
…
night!
"It's been delayed for so long, do you think you'll stop fighting?" Zhang Shuniang lay in Chen Li's arms, gently drawing circles with her hands, and whispered with hope.
"Oh, I hope so." Chen Li sighed.
But I knew in my heart that this possibility was unlikely.
The blood feud between the Hongshan Sect and the Tianxing Sect is not so easy to resolve. Sooner or later, there will be a battle to decide whether they live or die.
And the head of his own family will obviously not let go of this opportunity to eat both sides.
He guessed that the war would begin before winter at the latest.
Otherwise, it will be postponed until next year.
The winter here is quite harsh. Once it is covered with heavy snow, it will be inconvenient to do anything.
Even those who are cultivating immortals who come and go high will have to fall to the ground.
"Ever since I was little, I have been afraid of being alone. My mother left early and it was my father who raised her. Every time my father went out to sell talismans, I would be locked up in the house and couldn't leave the door. I was there all day long.
I have random thoughts and worries." Zhang Shuniang said softly.
Chen Li felt a little distressed. He hugged Zhang Shuniang and comforted him: "Don't worry, even if a war breaks out, I can come back alive. I remember when I was in Green River Fang, monsters were rampant and cannibalistic everywhere. It was more dangerous than this. Didn't I come here the same way?
!”
Zhang Shuniang couldn't help but snuggle into Chen Li's arms: "I just can't help but worry about uncle!"
"Ah! What uncle, call me husband!" Chen Li couldn't help but blush.
"whee!"
…
Chen Li's guess was correct.
Not long after autumn entered, the war began.
"This war won't last long. I guess Yue will be back in a while. Don't worry about me. Nothing will happen. Just live as you normally would."
The sky is still bright.
Chen Li and his wife and concubines said goodbye reluctantly.
The two women had tears in their eyes, as if they were about to leave.
"Oh, okay, no more nonsense, let's go!"
In the distance, Huanzhen Sect's five huge flying boats, which are as big as mountains, are already standing on the top of the mountain.
The magical weapons controlled by countless ant-like monks flashed through the dim light in the early morning darkness and still flew into the hatch of the flying boat.
For fear of leaking information, this operation was not carried out with much fanfare. Except for the senior leaders above the foundation, most of the Qi-training monks were not informed of the impending war until they boarded the ship.
"Senior, what you are going to board is the T-shaped flying boat. It is located at the top control center. It will be led by Master Xiao Yuan himself." A handyman disciple who was responsible for overall arrangements saw Chen Li arriving and trotted over quickly.
said respectfully.
Chen Li nodded.
Entering the flying boat control center, I looked around.
There is a huge array disk placed here.
In the energy tank the size of a washbasin in the center of the array, a dense glow filled the air. There were countless spiritual stones placed inside, and a dozen middle-aged and elderly Qi-training monks were busy up and down with a control sub-token each.
It looks similar to a manipulation formation.
But it's much more complicated.
At this time, Xiao Yuan was chatting and laughing with several foundation-building monks in a low voice. There was no trace of the depression before the war. When he saw Chen Li coming in, he greeted Chen Li warmly:
"Fellow Daoist Chen, come on, come on, sit here!"
Chen Li hurriedly exchanged greetings for a while, greeted each of the Ji Zhujis one by one, and then sat cross-legged beside them.
Four foundation builders have come.
Three men and one woman.
Except for Xiao Yuan, the other three people are Peng Yan, Wen Hui and his wife, and Hu Buwei.
"Speaking of which, Daoyou Chen has been building the foundation for five years. His cultivation level should be at the second level, right?" Xiao Yuan asked.
"My practice has gone smoothly after building the foundation. I just entered the third level not long ago!" Chen Li said with a smile. After all, he was about to go to the battlefield and his cultivation level couldn't be hidden, so he told the truth.
The cabin couldn't help but become quiet.
All eyes turned to look at it, and Wen Hui's face was even more brilliant.
The entire Huanzhen Sect includes some casual cultivators who established the family, and there are more than thirty people in total. Among them, one person is in the late stage of foundation building, six are in the middle stage of foundation building, and the rest are in the early stage of foundation building.
With three levels of foundation building, it is already above the average level among all foundation building.
This has only been five years.
"I didn't expect that fellow Taoist would have such talent. I'm afraid it won't take more than ten years for our Zhenzong to add another mid-stage foundation building." Hu Buwei sighed, and then thought of himself, it has been a hundred years, three hundred years of foundation building.
His life span is almost over, and he still has three levels of foundation building, which makes him feel sour in his heart.
"Where, where! There is almost a natural chasm between the early and middle stages of foundation building. How can it be so easy to cross? Otherwise, there are so many foundations in the sect, and there will not be only six people in the middle stage of foundation building like Fellow Daoist Xiao. Everything needs to be done.
It depends on your fate!" Chen Li said humbly, while quietly praising Xiao Yuan.
"Hey, it's too modest. It's nothing in the middle stage of foundation building. Compared with you and others, it's just a little more modest!" Xiao Yuan shook his head repeatedly, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help turning up.
"This is more than a little bit of bad behavior..." Hu Buwei also joined in the praise.
"Yes, yes!" Peng Yan was a little speechless and echoed.
Soon, no one paid attention to Chen Li.
During this period, two more foundations came one after another in the control warehouse.
One was an old cultivator named Song Zhi, who had age spots on his face, and the other was an ordinary-looking middle-aged female cultivator named Huang Qin.
Chen Li didn't have much contact with these two people, he only met them a few times.
While everyone was talking, a voice came from the control array:
"Everyone is in position, let's set off immediately!"
Along with the buzzing of the array disk, the energy tank glowed brightly.
The flying boat finally began to move slowly.
"This thing flies too slowly. It will probably take a whole day and a night. Why don't we take a gamble and come here!" Song Zhi's old face turned into a chrysanthemum smile, revealing the incomplete yellow teeth that were two hundred years old.
Take out a gambling set from the storage bag.
"Hey, I also brought gambling equipment. How big is the bet?" Hu Buwei suddenly became interested and asked
"It's a small gamble for fun! Without hurting your friendship, how about the upper limit of winning or losing is one high-grade spirit stone?" Song Zhi said with a smile.
"Too little, it's boring." Xiao Yuan said disdainfully: "What's the upper limit? If you win, you will still be afraid of running out of money. If you never get it back, no matter how much money you keep in your hand, it will be useful?"
"That makes sense!" Wen Hui said with a smile.
Everyone thought the same thing and immediately nodded their heads.
Chen Li didn't want to look out of place. After simply familiarizing himself with the rules, he started to enter.
Although it is my first time to come into contact with this kind of gambling equipment, but with the clear and quick thinking after training, superhuman sense of time, and steady playing style, I will never be greedy for success, but I will lose and win, and I will win more if I lose less.
After playing for a whole day, I won three high-grade spiritual stones.
Among them, Xiao Yuan won the most, with six high-grade spiritual stones, and the others also won more or less.
Hu Buwei was the only loser, and Chen Li estimated that he lost more than ten.
"I didn't expect that even I won a high-grade spiritual stone!" Wen Hui happily counted the spiritual stones, put them into her storage bag, and said with a smile.
"I'm really unlucky today. Everyone wins, but I keep losing." After the game ended, Hu Buwei said he was unlucky.
Fortunately, he was wealthy, running a Goulan business in Luanluo City, and was an experienced foundation builder with a rich family fortune. At least on the surface, Chen Li could not tell that he cared much about the winning or losing of a dozen high-grade spiritual stones.
Of course, with his all-around good nature, he might lose to everyone on purpose.
"You're not good at playing poker. You need to practice more. That's it for today. You have to regulate your breath and energy at night and come back when you have time another day." Xiao Yuan lightly twirled his long beard and said with a smile.
Next, there is no more relaxing atmosphere.
Everyone began to close their eyes and relax, preparing for the next battle.
The flying boat flew all the way, and at nightfall it reunited with the Hongshan Sect's team. A dozen flying boats formed a mighty formation, emitting dim spiritual light in the dark night, and headed straight for the target like a dark cloud.
Then we flew all night, and finally arrived at our destination in the early morning.
Through the portholes, the Tianxing Sect's mountain-protecting formation shone brightly in the distance, lighting up a thick protective shield.
After a while, two golden elixirs flew out of the magic circle one after another:
"Ao Xiong, you are so brave. Are you going to fight me to the death? And He Zhao, you are despicable and ambitious. There is no grudge between the Tianxing Sect and your Zhen Sect. If you retreat now, I will do anything for you.
It didn't happen."
His voice was like thunder, and his voice spread in all directions.
Even after being filtered by the flying boat formation, it is still clear to the ears.
Chen Li felt a little ashamed after hearing this.
Alas, this fact doesn’t make much sense!
"Huh, Cao Wu, you are domineering, start disputes, kill too much, and disturb your neighbors. God will not tolerate it. I am helping Ao Taoist friend, but I am doing justice for God. If you surrender now and stand on the bush to apologize, we will return the favor.
I can spare your life." Upon hearing this, He Zhao flew out of the flying boat and said without changing his expression.
"Hahahahaha, you are confusing right and wrong, you are despicable and shameless. If you want to die, come and die!" Cao Wu was so angry that his hair and beard were all spread out, he gritted his teeth and laughed in anger.
He has never seen such a shameless person.
If we talk about killing.
You think He Zhao of the Zhen sect is the first, but who dares to argue the second?
The corpses of the Changsheng Sect are not yet cold.
"Fellow Daoist He, why are you talking so much nonsense to these dying people? Come on, come on!" Ao Xiong also flew out of the flying boat and sneered at the general: "It's just two against two, which is fair. How about we decide whether to live or die now?
, and it will save you from breaking the formation later and causing innocent casualties, do you dare?"
"If I'm afraid of you, why don't you dare?"
He Zhao and Ao Xiong winked secretly and nodded imperceptibly.
next moment.
Four people from both sides turned into four streams of light and approached at high speed. Halfway through, Ao Xiong threw out an umbrella-shaped magic weapon to protect his body. Then he withstood a blow from Cao Wu's flying sword, and his body suddenly turned towards the new Jindan.
.
Apparently he wanted to cut off his wings first.
"Not good!" Cao Wu's expression changed drastically and he chased after him madly.
But it's already too late!
He Zhao and Ao Xiong formed a partnership.
Calculation without intention!
The new Jindan was completely caught off guard.
Just a face-to-face meeting.
Accompanied by a dazzling bright light.
His defense was instantly broken, and he was killed on the spot by two people.
Blood spilled into the sky.
The whole battle lasted only a moment, a flash of lightning!
