The dark lake water is as smooth as a mirror. Occasionally, dead leaves brought by the wind fall on the lake surface, and they will also swirl and sink to the bottom of the lake.
Blackwater Lake, except for the Blackwater King Leech, cannot tolerate any debris, whether it is people or dead leaves, it will sink and there will never be a chance to see the light of day again.
Jujiu has already left, and just killing Jiang Ning is not enough to vent his anger. This time, he wants the entire Jiuzhou Continent cultivation community to know the consequences of angering the king beast.
The slaughter continued, and with Jujiu's actions, more and more desolate beasts began to participate. The cultivators retreating in the desolate fortress suffered increasing casualties, including desolate warriors and desolate guards.
"If this continues, can we still return to the Great Wall alive..." The old man leaned under the tree and looked at the sky, his pupils gradually dilated.
Around the old man, there were more than thirty mutilated corpses of cultivators lying scattered around.
The Great Wall of China, Observation Deck.
"My lords, everyone is ready." A young man wearing Bailu Taoist attire came up and said respectfully.
Zhang Shen sighed, looked at Wen Fengming and said, "Dean Wen, are you sure you want to do this? Is it too risky?"
After Wen Fengming received the message from the Shangqing Immortal, he put the Great Wall of Zhenshi into a state of preparation for war. He thought it was just for defense, but unexpectedly today he suddenly ordered to rectify the troops and attack the deserted fortress.
Zhang Shendu was shocked by this decision.
Once we attack the wilderness, it is equivalent to starting a war with the restricted area of life. At that time, several other restricted areas will definitely take action. At that time, the smoke of gunfire will rise again in the Kyushu continent, and countless living beings will also suffer from the war.
This was something he didn't want to see, so he immediately raised objections.
But Zhang Shendu never expected that Wen Fengming would directly take out the joint handwriting of the seven desolate kings.
The handwriting of the seven Huangjuns means that from now on the entire Great Wall will obey the orders of Huangjun, and Bailu Taoist Academy, as the lord of Dongzhou, must also provide strong support, help and cooperation.
Four covenants signed jointly.
As Zhang Shen alone is in charge of one of the five houses, he has no reason to disobey!
Wen Fengming's green shirt rustled with the wind. He put his hands in his big sleeves and narrowed his beautiful red phoenix eyes slightly, looking into the depths of the deserted fortress.
"Brother Shendu, do you know that whether it is Jujiu or the beast god Taowu, they will all use this matter as an excuse to launch an attack on the Great Wall. Otherwise, why do you think the blood pool would suddenly appear in the wilderness? Jujiu and
Why do you dare to suddenly massacre our practitioners?"
"Did they really not think that this move would arouse the anger of the five courtyards and four sects?"
Wen Fengming didn't wait for an answer before explaining himself: "So behind Jujiu's anger this time, there must be some deep meaning that we didn't expect, so we can't just sit back and wait for death!"
"Killing out proactively can, on the one hand, take care of those cultivators who have returned and avoid more casualties. On the other hand, it can also attract the attention of several king beasts and gain more chances of survival for those who have escaped."
"The most important thing is that you can also test out what's being planned behind the wilderness and the blood pool!"
Wen Fengming's expression was very calm, but every word he spoke was filled with murderous intent, which shocked Zhang Shendu to the point of trembling in his heart.
"But these are just our speculations. Do we really want to start a war easily just because of a possible possibility?" Zhang Shendu still wanted to struggle.
It's not that he hasn't thought about getting rid of Huangsai, but he can't accept the price of getting rid of Huangsai.
Because of that, many, many people will die, perhaps even himself, Wen Fengming, the woodcutter, and his teacher Meng Shengren...
The woodcutter didn't drink today. He was sitting at the top of the city sharpening a rusty axe.
Don't look at the rust on the ax head and the rotten handle with cracks. Its reputation is not low in the deserted fortress.
Because it has a very prominent identity, the town object—the sky-opening axe!
"I actually think what Lao Wen said makes sense. The Beast God started to make moves a few years ago. Two days ago, I joined forces with Lao Wen to deal with the Blood Demon. The purpose was also to take the opportunity to test the seal of Tao Wu. As a result...
..”
Zhang Shendu suddenly turned pale and asked, "Is there something wrong with the seal...?"
When the beast god Taowu wanted to seize Dongzhou, Meng Shengren gathered the power of the entire Taoist academy to seal it deep in the deserted fortress. Otherwise, there would be no world-suppressing Great Wall behind it. The trial of the deserted fortress might not even be able to connect to the east continent.
The continent has long since become the territory of wild beasts.
The woodcutter stopped what he was doing and said in a solemn tone: "There is no problem with the seal. Otherwise, do you think we can come back safe and sound if they take action?"
Zhang Shen breathed a sigh of relief and secretly felt lucky.
Thinking about it, the masters of the living forbidden zone are as powerful as land gods.
Even with Wen Fengming, a freak like him, it was impossible to come back unscathed, but in fact when he and the woodcutter came back that day, his clothes were not even torn, which is enough to show that Taowu was still sealed and did not escape.
What Zhang Shendu didn't expect was that when Wen Fengming said he wanted to kill the Blood Lord, his real purpose was actually the Beast God!
"So you planned to take action against Huangsai at that time?" Zhang Shendu still didn't want to start a war rashly, and continued to persuade: "But even if there is no problem with the seal, it will be difficult to take down Huangsai. We only rely on the power of the Great Wall of Zhenshi and Bailu Taoist Temple.
It’s not enough either.”
The terrain of the Desolate Fortress is complicated. All the king beasts are on the dragon's plate, and every king beast's territory is surrounded by tens of thousands of wild beasts. In addition, the terrain is difficult, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is not easy to win.
.
Otherwise, the Seven Desolate Lords and the Great Wall of Zhenshi would have captured the Desolate Fortress long ago.
The woodcutter scratched his head and said to Wen Fengming: "I just said that you can't read the books of saints. Look at Brother Zhang, he is stupid in reading."
Wen Fengming was speechless.
"Brother Shendu, haven't you thought of the true meaning of my action that day?" He turned around and stared at Zhang Shendu and asked.
In his puzzled expression, Wen Fengming sighed and said: "It's really impossible to read the saint's book."
Zhang Shendu was immediately furious.
"Brother Shendu, don't be angry. I said this, and you will understand where the problem lies if you think about it." Wen Fengming smiled gently: "Since there is no problem with the seal of the beast god, it can only penetrate part of the power to interfere with the outside world, then Jujiu will do whatever he wants.
Where is the confidence to kill cultivators?"
Zhang Shendu was shocked.
To be able to become the leader of the Five Courts and the person in charge of Dongzhou Mingming, he is naturally not really a stupid person.
So as soon as Wen Fengming's words came out, he knew what the problem was.
The seal of the beast god is fine, Jujiu still dares to kill people everywhere. Even if it really loses its mind due to the pain of losing its son, Taowu will never let it do so, because the wanton killing will definitely attract the attention of the five courtyards and four sects.
The strong one takes action.
But now the beast god not only did not stop it, but all the king beasts also joined in the massacre.
There is a big problem here!
Wen Fengming knew that he had figured it out and said with a smile: "Now do you know why we have to take the initiative to attack? Even if my junior brother does not eat Jujiu's cubs, Huangsai will take action against the Great Wall. It is only a matter of time."
Zhang Shendu was silent for a long time, took a deep breath, raised his head and met his eyes and said: "Brother Wen, have you ever thought about the possibility that there might be another possibility in this matter, that is, someone deliberately sent Jujiu's cub to your junior brother?
