Cangzhou is one of the four major states of the Wei State. It is located in the westernmost part of the Wei State. It can be said to be the largest area among the four major states. However, the climate here is dry and it is mostly mountainous. It looks quite desolate.
Compared with other states, the spiritual resources here are relatively poor, but the area is large enough, and it can barely house two immortal sects, Tianjian Sect and Jiuyou Sect.
The most famous mountain range in Cangzhou is the Tianjian Mountain that stands in the north of Cangzhou. The bottom of the entire mountain range is very broad, stretching for hundreds of miles, and is densely forested. Compared with other places in Cangzhou, it appears to be full of vitality.
As the height changes, Tianjian Mountain gradually becomes narrower. When it reaches the peak, it is only about a hundred feet long and wide. Tianjian Mountain is like a long sword thrust straight into the sky, as if it has poked a hole in the sky.
Tianjian Mountain is also named after this. Tianjian Sect, which is second only to the Demon Spirit Sect in terms of strength in the Wei Kingdom, is located in Tianjian Mountain.
On the edge of a cliff near the top of Tianjian Peak, several monks exuding mana fluctuations in the elixir formation stage sat cross-legged, with a light black jade slip placed in the middle.
The leader, an old man with sword eyebrows, suddenly snorted coldly: "The Demon Spirit Sect occupies a land in Luzhou and has united with the Blood Refining Sect. Does it think that it is the boss of the Wei Kingdom?"
"They actually asked our Heavenly Sword Sect to help them arrange manpower at the entrance of the Land of Death to intercept the Yueyang Sect's escape of those foundation-building stage boys."
Other monks also spoke one after another.
"Huh, in the previous battle with the Shangqing Sect, we had an agreement, so they would take the Demon Spirit Sect as the main force. Now they want to continue to ask us to help. They really regard our Tianjian Sect as the Qingyang Sect and the Jiuyou Sect with ordinary strength.
It’s a sect.”
"What is the common reference to the psychic puppet technique? I'm afraid it has another purpose."
"That's right, the psychic puppet technique has been in the Yueyang Sect for so many years. I heard that it was Old Ghost Fang who recruited two Nascent Soul Stage psychic puppets in the final battle. The other disciples in the Pill Formation Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage did not have puppets of the corresponding level.
In hand."
"It can be seen that those two psychic puppets are the things passed down from generation to generation of the Yueyang Sect, and were not refined by Fang Laogui at all."
"With the Yueyang Sect's skill in refining weapons, there is no way to refine a psychic puppet. Our Tianjian Sect only specializes in swords, so it is impossible for it to be of any use."
…
Listening to the discussions among the fellow disciples, the elder Jianmei, who was headed by him, flashed a soaring sword aura, and the aura he exuded was completely at the level of the Great Perfection of the Dan Formation Stage.
Everyone fell silent and looked at this senior brother with advanced cultivation.
Seeing everyone looking at him, the old man with sword eyebrows retracted his momentum in an instant and said: "What the Demon Spirit Sect wants to arrest are the two boys from the Yueyang Sect's Refining Peak. I have seen them on the battlefield. Their strength is in the foundation building period."
It is indeed extremely powerful.”
"Only two or more late-stage foundation-building sword cultivators can we be sure to take them down. Moreover, there are risks, so we simply don't need to pay attention to them. Anyway, if these two people really grow in strength in the future, they will also bring bad luck to the Demon Spirit Sect."
"We don't do thankless things."
"By the way, Junior Brother Zhu, please inform all the disciples in the Foundation Establishment Period to stay away from the Land of Death recently. Hehe, the Nine Nether Sect is the opposite of us, so let them have their troubles."
A rather calm young man nodded and agreed, but then he said: "Senior Brother Dugu, what will the people from the Demon Spirit Sect say when they ask?"
The old man with sword eyebrows, whose surname is Dugu, sneered: "Just say that most of the monks I sent are studying the sword skills passed down by Master Yue and are unable to help."
"But if it's the Demon Spirit Gate..."
"What are you afraid of? My uncle Yue is already in the middle stage of Nascent Soul. With his power as a swordsman, I'm still afraid that he, Shi Lao Mo, won't succeed."
"Uncle Master Yue is in the middle stage of Yuanying?" The surrounding monks in the Dan Formation Stage all showed great joy after hearing this.
"Great, this will make our Heavenly Sword Sect even more powerful."
…
In the south of Cangzhou, in a mountain range close to Qingzhou, there is a huge valley, which is filled with blood energy and a little bit of demonic energy. It is the location of another sect in Cangzhou, Jiuyoumen.
In a rather majestic hall deep in the valley, there were five men and women in the Danjie period with excited faces discussing something.
"No matter what, we must get the Yueyang Sect's psychic puppet technique. As long as we understand some of the techniques of psychic control and god control, and cooperate with Junior Brother Wang's research in the land of death for so many years, it is very possible to refine it.
Create a controllable bronze-armored corpse."
"In addition to possessing the strength of the elixir-forming stage, the bronze-armored corpse is also physically stronger than ordinary monsters, which is definitely a big help."
"Even the legendary silver-armored corpse, which is comparable to the monks in the Nascent Soul Stage, was refined with just a few chances!"
The man who spoke was the leader, who had the highest level of cultivation. Judging from the level of mana on his body, he had a cultivation level in the middle stage of pill formation. The other four people were only in the early stage of pill formation.
Then the man sighed again and said: "It's a pity that Junior Brother Wang was seriously injured by Ling Yuetong of the Demon Spirit Sect and fell to the realm of the Dan-Jie stage. Although the lifespan of the Dan-Jie stage is still there, based on his situation, I'm afraid...
You can never go back to the pill-forming stage again."
A pretty woman in Tsing Yi next to her heard "Ling Yuetong", her eyes showed deep hatred, and she said coldly: "Senior Brother Ni, if it weren't for this witch, with his qualifications, he would be in the late stage of pill formation by now.
Already."
The leader, "Senior Brother Ni," sighed and said: "Hey, Junior Sister, our strength is far different from that of the Demon Spirit Sect. I didn't expect that their Nascent Soul Stage monks, in addition to the middle-stage Shi Lao Demon, also have three Yuan Ying Stage monks.
A monk in his early infancy."
"What else can we do besides fawning and swallowing our anger?"
The woman in green took a deep breath, and the hatred in her eyes gradually dissipated. She said calmly: "Senior Brother, don't worry, Junior Sister, I have been patient for so many years, and I won't act out of anger."
"Senior Brother Ni" nodded and said: "So this time, Junior Sister, you and Junior Brother Huang, together with some disciples from the sect, will be guarding near the place of death."
"If you meet Lu Kun of the Yueyang Sect, you must capture him alive. This man's skills are weird. I asked someone to find out. They are special skills for cultivating the physical body."
"This technique has great reference value for our corpse refining technique, and Lu Kun's physical body is powerful and is an excellent material for refining bronze armored corpses."
"The Yueyang Sect's psychic puppetry technique is also very likely to be on him. He is the top priority!"
The man hesitated for a while and then said: "In this case, if the Yueyang Sect and others escape to the place of death, you can use my jade talisman to contact Junior Brother Wang and ask him to assist you."
"Junior Brother Wang has been in the Land of Death all year round. Although his cultivation is only in the late stage of foundation building, he has been setting up there for many years, so he is still confident of stopping these people."
As the man spoke, he took out a dark purple jade talisman and handed it to the excited-looking woman.
Then he said: "Junior sister, this jade talisman has a limited number of uses. Don't use it until critical times."
The woman suppressed her excitement, took the jade talisman, and said, "Well, senior brother, although I really want to see senior brother Wang, I also know what's appropriate."
At this time, another cold-faced man called "Junior Brother Huang" stepped forward and clasped his fists: "Since senior brother has made arrangements, then Junior Sister Yao and I will make arrangements."
"Okay, thank you both for your hard work."
Watching these two people walk out of the hall and fly outwards, the man in the middle stage of elixir formation and the remaining monk next to him had a look of anticipation on their faces.
