The news that the Wenxian Sect was defeated by Feixianling shocked the entire world of immortal cultivation. This meant that in the war between the two alliances, the Immortal Alliance had the upper hand and the Five Continents Alliance was in a weak position.
This kind of weakness cannot be compensated by Bai Zichen and the others' advantage in disrupting the Hundred Treasure Sect and the Wuliang Sect. For a time, the atmosphere in the Five Continents Alliance was solemn, and the morale of the Immortal Alliance naturally increased greatly.
Lu Leiyuan urgently consulted with the top leaders of the alliance and decided to restore this disadvantage. You must know that not everyone in their respective alliances is firmly on their side. In the huge Nanzhou, those who belong to the Five Continents Alliance are die-hards.
It's just the Kingdom of Wu and the Kingdom of Qin. If the Immortal Alliance takes the opportunity to spread the word, it may shake the will of those people and completely collapse the situation.
But before Lu Leiyuan could come up with a solution, something worse happened again. Qixing Pavilion broke through the Qingyang Sect's defense line and pushed the battle line to the Qingyang Sect's mountain gate.
Qixing Pavilion mobilized a total of more than two million men and concentrated all its strength. However, Qingyang Sect's development time was too short. Even with the help of Wenxian Sect's vassals, it only had 700,000 men. There was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides. There had been no first leader before.
This was a breakthrough, but the Qixing Pavilion was not prepared and did not actually take action.
Qingyang City was built under the leadership of Li Muxue. Under the influence of Lin Xiao's thoughts, Qingyang City's defenses were extremely complete. It was more of a fortress than a city.
In addition to the city walls, there are a large number of war fortresses on the periphery, and there are even nine trenches. A hundred miles away from Qingyang City is the mountain gate of Qingyang Sect, which are like horns to each other.
It can be said that the Qingyang Sect was very well prepared in terms of war preparations, but now, facing the overwhelming number of monks, all the guarding monks felt their hands trembling.
Li Muxue was wearing a golden battle armor with a red cloak. He was patrolling the city wall with the support of dozens of personal guards. Even in the fortress outside, Li Muxue could be seen as soon as he raised his head.
After seeing Li Muxue, the monk felt much more at ease.
Li Muxue's ability to make everyone feel at ease is naturally the result of her fighting the enemy bravely for more than a month. In every battle, Li Muxue takes the lead and rushes to the front line. She has been in danger many times. If it weren't for the secret protection of the Li family, to be honest, Li Muxue
Li Muxue had already died in the battle, but it was precisely because she was alive that everyone in the Qingyang Sect relied on her.
Just when Li Muxue was patrolling, the city defense formation flickered slightly. Ordinary people didn't notice it, but Li Muxue noticed it. Li Muxue quickened his pace to patrol, and soon returned to the meeting hall in the city. Li Chaoxian was there.
While waiting for her, Li Chaoxian came in quietly just now using the authority of the city defense formation.
"granduncle"
"Muxue, how is the situation in the city?"
"Let's talk about how the secret realm is going first."
Li Muxue replied that the foundation of the Li family lies in the Qing Emperor's Secret Realm. Over the past hundred years, Li Muxue has taken out 90% of the Li family's power, and the Li Family's Secret Realm is extremely weak.
The front line had been penetrated before, and some of the Li family monks were captured. Li Muxue even discovered that Qixing Pavilion had split its troops out of the East China Sea. This made them extremely frightened, so they specially sent Li Chao to go back to deal with matters in the secret realm.
"All the insiders outside have taken back the secret realm. Precautions have been taken at the entrance and exit of the secret realm. All the people in the secret realm have gathered near the entrance and exit. There is only so much that can be done. Now I only hope that the captured disciples will not confess."
Li Chaoxian replied, in fact, he also knew that this was very unreliable. Although the monks of the Li family were extremely loyal to the family, most of them could not withstand severe torture, and someone would definitely confess.
The Li family monks used to take some precautions when entering and exiting the secret realm, such as setting restrictions in the soul to keep secrets. However, after Li Muxue moved the Li family monks on a large scale, they no longer have the time to take such precautions.
It also made the Li family's secret realm extremely dangerous at this time.
"Hopefully"
Li Muxue said quietly, she even blamed herself at this time, feeling that she had dragged the Li family into this quagmire. If it hadn't been for her, the Li family might not have participated in the war, let alone be in this danger.
"Muxue, what's going on in the city?"
"There are 300,000 monks in the city and 200,000 monks in the mountain sect. We have all the strength. The Wenxian sect is overwhelmed and has no support."
Li Muxue shook her head. The frontline camp had been penetrated, and the men under her command had lost a total of 200,000 people, almost one-third of them. It was extremely heavy. Even now, they are still in great danger.
Outside the city, there are more than two million monks, and the camps are connected for hundreds of miles, directly surrounding Qingyang City and Shanmen. With just this few people, there is no telling how long they can defend.
"What a shame, why didn't I listen to Lin Xiaozhi back then? If we had prepared a hundred or two hundred years in advance, why would we be like this?"
Li Chaoxian was filled with hatred. Lin Xiao had suggested to them a long time ago that the Li family should be born as soon as possible, but the Li family's ideas were too pedantic and they simply ignored it. They moved out after Emperor Hao's trouble first happened.
If the Li family was born a hundred or two hundred years earlier, with Li Muxue's talents, it would be normal to double or triple the existing power. Even if they were not hostile, they would not be like now.
"Uncle, let's not talk about this anymore, let's take a look again."
"Qixing Pavilion has not attacked the city for three days, what are they thinking?"
"It's just that we haven't made up our minds yet because we see that we are strong-willed. We still have 500,000 troops, and we have cities, spiritual mountains, and fortifications to rely on. The Li family's background is also something the enemy is afraid of. If they want to annihilate us, Qixing Pavilion is the least
It will cost between 500,000 and 1 million people.
You must know that the Immortal League is also not united. They each have their own goals. If Qixing Pavilion really kills so many people, their status in the Immortal League will plummet. When the time comes to divide the spoils, will they be able to get it?
Do you want one share or two?"
"According to what you said, Qixing Pavilion won't do anything at will?"
"If nothing else happens, the envoy from Qixing Pavilion will arrive within three to five days."
"What do you want?"
"Just follow their wishes. What we have to do now is to delay time. The variables in the world of immortality are not with us. As long as we delay time, we will win."
"Muxue is still counting on Lin Xiao? This is a battle involving tens of millions of people. Can he do it?"
"Yes, uncle, believe me. My master will be the most critical variable in this war. Let's just wait and see."
Li Muxue nodded. She had blind trust in Lin Xiao. For hundreds of years, no matter what kind of problem he had, he could easily solve it. It must be the same for this war.
·······
In Zhongzhou, in the ferry camp, Lin Xiao already knew about the changes in the situation in the world of cultivating immortals. As for the Wenxian Sect's withdrawal from Feixianling, Lin Xiao also felt that it was not a mistake, and that it was not a good thing to fight with Ziyunguan and the others.
The comparison between the three sects and the seven sects lies in their strong foundation, and this foundation cannot be converted into combat effectiveness immediately. It takes time to brew and be revealed slowly. The longer it is delayed, the more obvious the advantage of the Five Continents Alliance will be. On the contrary,
Once the spirit is exhausted, the Immortal Alliance's stamina is relatively weak.
"Leader Lin, Patriarch Ma has arrived."
"Invite him to the meeting hall. I will come later."
"Yes, Leader Lin"
Bu Yunshuang replied that at these times, he usually calls the leader, not the master.
A moment later, Lin Xiao met Ma Langfei, the first eighth-level ancestor of Nanzhou's generation, in the meeting hall.
"Fellow Horse Taoist"
"Leader Lin"
"What order did Fellow Daoist Ma bring from the alliance this time?"
"The Wenxian Sect retreated to the mountain gate, and the Qingyang Sect's front line was penetrated. The situation in the southern part of Central Continent has deteriorated, especially the Qingyang Sect. There are only about 500,000 people left. They are no match for the Seven Star Pavilion. It is difficult for the northern front to have any
A substantial breakthrough, so the alliance asks us to defeat Baibao Sect and Wuliang Sect as soon as possible, and go south to attack Shenmu Sect. If Qingyang Sect is defeated again, then the enemy's troops will be close to 7 million people. Wenxian Sect is definitely not
opponent"
"I understand, Baibao Sect and Wuliang Sect are not strong enemies. The reason why they have not taken action is just waiting for them to defeat themselves without attacking. You can restore the alliance, and within ten days, we can defeat the enemy. Continue
"Go south"
"That's good, that's good. In addition, Patriarch Lu has something he would like to ask Leader Lin for private help with."
"What happened"
"The situation in Wenxian Sect is on the verge of collapse. How to protect ourselves or defeat the enemy without external aid? This problem has troubled the alliance's senior leaders for a long time, and they have not come up with a solution. If Leader Lin has time, he can
Reply to Patriarch Lu and give him some suggestions."
"I have really thought about the situation of the Immortal Sect. It is a trivial matter. I will write to Patriarch Lu later."
"Then thank you very much, Leader Lin."
"No, there's nothing wrong. Ma Laozu can go and take a rest."
"good"
Lin Xiao asked someone to send Ma Langfei to rest, and then Lin Xiao personally wrote a letter to Lu Leiyuan, writing down his opinions.
Wenxianmen's enemy side is strong and we are weak, but it's not that there is no advantage at all. After Feixian Ridge, everything is flat, but Wenxianmen also carried out hard work to clear the field, and the Immortal Alliance did not gain much.
The consumption of millions of troops is extremely terrifying. They are now fighting across borders, and their food routes are tens of thousands of miles long. With their consumption, they may not be able to pack all the goods in storage bags. They must have logistical equipment, and their weakness is
Logistics and supplies.
Lin Xiao wrote down the essence of guerrilla warfare, asking them to carry out guerrilla warfare, focusing on defense on the front, and guerrilla warfare on the side as a supplement, harassing the enemy's food routes, and even learning from Lin Xiao and sending an elite partial division.
, detour into the hinterland of Ziyun Temple to destroy it.
In order to break through the Wenxian Sect, Ziyun Temple has squeezed out its potential. Their base does not have much power and is easy to destroy. Zongzhi is still dragging his feet until the situation changes. There are no variables in this war.
It lies in the south, but in the north of Middle-earth.
Lin Xiao handed the letter to Ma Langfei and asked him to forward it. As for whether Lu Leiyuan could follow Lin Xiao's suggestion, he didn't care. Lin Xiao also wanted to prepare for a war to regain the disadvantage for the Five Continents Alliance.
