Chapter 59

(I came back late from overtime work today, so I will fix it later)

Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.

The other end of the abyss on the south bank of Huanlingzong.

Black mist piled up here, and the atmosphere was like a ghost, gloomy and hazy.

The scenes or characters in it are completely covered by thick black fog, and others cannot see them clearly.

At this moment.

An extremely angry and shrill voice suddenly erupted from the layers of black mist.

The fog was suddenly stirred up and rolled around, with a big atmosphere.

After a while, the roar stopped abruptly, and the black fog returned to stability.

"Hunzun, what happened?" Immediately afterwards, a rumbling voice sounded.

"My soul is dead."

"Dead?" The rumbling voice seemed extremely surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Which soul is it?"

"Xuanwu." The voice of the man called Hun Zun gradually returned to calm.

"Necessary sacrifices are always inevitable. Besides, among the three souls of your soul master, it is not very important for Xuanwu to rule this soul." The owner of another voice said with a smile.

"Yu Zun, you!" Hun Zun's voice that had just calmed down rose again.

These words were exactly what Soul Master used to "comfort" Yu Zun after the fall of Suzaku Master, one of Yu Zun's three souls at Longchengguan.

It's comforting, but it's more of a sarcasm.

Do not suffer from scarcity but from inequality.

Yu Zun has been very upset because his three souls were broken in Longcheng Pass, but now seeing that Hun Zun also lost a soul, he felt much better.

Feeling good is one thing, and he can tell the priority of the matter, so he quickly understands the situation, "How did Xuanwu die, and who killed him?"

"If I remember correctly, didn't your soul, Xuanwu, go to Jianzong Yishuitai to destroy Jianzong's cross-domain teleportation circle?"

"According to the informant, isn't the person guarding the Yishui Terrace of Jianzong the sword master Taibai of Jianzong? How could he have the ability to kill you?"

Soul Master was silent for a moment, then a hoarse voice sounded, "I don't know either."

"But according to the evidence of returning to the soul, it was indeed Master Taibai who killed me."

"There is an extremely strange and strange power on his sword, which is completely irresistible with the strength of the soul of Xuanwu."

Yu Zun in the black mist frowned and fell into deep thought.

"The peak master of the Sword Sect is really not easy..." After a long time, Yu Zun let out a long breath and said quietly.

"The peak master Haoran ranks at the bottom of the seven peak masters of the Sword Sect, and he has just broken through to the Tribulation Realm recently, and his current cultivation is only at the Fourth Tribulation Realm, but even so, he has the ability to kill You have a soul?" He still couldn't believe it, "No matter how weak Xuanwu is, it is still the strength of a cultivator in the honorable realm."

Yu Zun has been in charge of Huanlingzong for so many years, so he naturally knows that among the human race, Jianzong is the strongest at the top level of strength.

But he never thought that a sword cultivator who had just broken through to the Four Tribulations Realm would be able to leapfrog ranks and defeat a cultivator in the Exalted Realm.

Even a sword fairy can't do this in the Four Tribulations Realm, right?

One must know that the peak masters of the Sword Sect who were able to leapfrog the ranks and rebel against the Demon Lord had at least started at the Six Tribulations Realm.

This is the basics.

Without this level of cultivation, it would be difficult to fight against even the most skilled swordsmen.

Why was Li Qiubai able to defeat Emperor Wu in a row with the cultivation base of the eight realms?

In addition to his superb swordsmanship, even if he fell from the Sword Immortal Realm to the Transcendence Tribulation Realm, he still has the terrifying cultivation base of the Eight Tribulations as a foundation.

So, why should Haoran Peak Master?

Both Hun Zun and Yu Zun are hard to figure out.

"This third-generation sword cultivator is really extraordinary," Hun Zun murmured, "There must be something mysterious about it that we don't know about."

The third life of Haoran Peak Master is not a big secret in front of them, high-level Taoist monks.

"Then what should we do now?" Yu Zun's eyes flickered, "There was news not long ago from the soldiers and demons that Jianzong has already made up his mind to mobilize most of the power in the sect to conquer Zhongling.

"

"These sword lunatics!" Hun Zun cursed bitterly, and then solemnly said: "Although Jianzong is strong, it is only a fantasy if one clan controls a whole family."

"Not to mention, Qingyun Sword Immortal is still staying at Yumen Pass," he said with a sneer, "Since this is the case, Jianzong has nothing to fear."

"Except Qingyun Sword Immortal, although the remaining peak masters are equally extraordinary, as long as they haven't become Sword Immortals, they are nothing more than fish meat for us to knead in front of the remaining two souls of you and me, so why worry? "

The two sovereigns of the Heart Demon clan were talking to each other enthusiastically.

"That's what I said, but if we can destroy Jianzong's cross-domain teleportation circle in time, we don't need to worry about this trouble." Yu Zun said with great regret.

"Accidents are always inevitable," Master Soul continued indifferently, "We have paid enough attention to Jianzong. First, let Heimang use the candle to illuminate the soul to break the formation. After he failed, I even sent Xuanwu The soul sent out, but even so, failed to win this formation, that can only be said to be God's will."

"Our battle with Jianzong seems to be destined."

"Huanling has wanted to take the name of the strongest Taoist sect of Jianzong and replace it for ten thousand years, but it has been difficult to succeed," Hun Zun said with a smile, "Then this time, we will directly remove the name of Jianzong, and treat it as a circle. The dream of the raccoon spirit."

Yu Zun was also full of expectations, and there was a hint of killing intent in his voice, "All the other four domains have given up, but Jianzong is determined to go his own way and be a lone hero."

"This time, let Jianzong know that the lonely hero is not so mighty."

"As for Jianzong's cross-domain teleportation circle," Soul Venerable paused, "Anyway, except for Jianzong, other human forces are already as we guessed, and they are unwilling to support Zhongling. The difference is not big, so let’s put this matter on the shelf first.”

Destroying all the cross-domain teleportation circles, in their expectation, is a sure-fire guarantee. Even if there are some mistakes, the impact will not be too great.

Besides, apart from Yishuitai's teleportation circle, there is no longer any teleportation circle above Zhongling, and the expected plan has basically been completed.

Of course, the most important thing is that their demon army in the Infernal Realm is now advancing eastward in the western region of Zhongling.

The Yishui Terrace is located in the northern area of ​​Zhongling.

The two are separated by hundreds of thousands of miles.

It is obviously unlikely to lead the demon army to flatten Yishuitai.

"The human race is gathering at the Changye Mountains, and plans to build a new city gate there to stop our army." Yu Zun said again.

The Long Night Mountain Range is a natural moat that stretches between the east and west of Zhongling. It is a natural city wall, shaped like a corridor.

The human race distinguishes the east and west of the spirit, and this mountain range is also the boundary.

To the east of the Long Night Mountains is the eastern region of Zhongling.

"A new grand pass cannot be built in a short period of time. Besides, this time there is no Xia Daozu building a god array for the human race."

"How can a city gate without a divine formation be able to stop us?" Hun Zun was extremely confident in the strength of the Demon Race in the Infinite Realm, "No matter how tall and strong it looks, it is nothing more than a paper tiger, and it will fall down when blown."

"But once Xiongguan is built, it will definitely delay our pace of seizing spirits and increase our losses." Yu Zun said solemnly.

"Our army is too large and inconvenient to move. It is difficult to make a quick assault. In addition, the number of monsters accumulated by Huanlingzong for thousands of years will only increase in number and it will be difficult to coordinate.

Going forward like this, it will take at least three months to reach the Long Night Mountain Range. "

"In March, the human race is enough to establish a strong enough city gate between the Long Night Mountains."

"We might as well divide up our troops, divide up some of our strength, and go straight to the Long Night Mountain Range. Even if we can't directly wipe out the human monks gathered there at this moment, at least we can interfere with their construction of the city."

"And then? Our overall strength is good enough to crush the human race, but once we forcibly split our strength into two parts, the human race will have something to play with us." Hun Zun objected.

Although their Wujianyu is extremely powerful compared to Zhongling, they still have some scruples.

First of all, the second battle of Dao Demon has not yet started, and the Infernal Domain is the first to launch the battle of seizing souls.

At this time, the other seven domains are in the "leisure" stage, which means that while the heart demons have invested a large number of manpower in the front line, the rear must guard against the "stealing home" of the other seven holy demons.

Among the demons, there is only cruelty, only cold blood.

If they really have no defenses against Wujieyu, then it is almost inevitable for the other seven demons to attack Wujieyu.

At that time, even the soldiers demons and giant spirits who have reached a cooperation agreement with their heart demons will not give up this opportunity to take advantage of it.

For the other seven holy demons, this is tantamount to giving them a domain for nothing.

If God does not take, you will be blamed.

The so-called Infernal Realm is at war with the human race, and the possibility of not holding back the demon race is really naive.

In the abyss, profit always comes first.

Childish people, let alone in the abyss, even in the sky, cannot survive.

Therefore, taking this point into consideration, Soul Master and Master Yu must leave 50% of their manpower in the Infernal Domain.

And in the battle of Longcheng Pass, although the demons had brilliant results and defeated the most powerful group of monks in Zhongling overnight, they were not without losses.

——Under the desperate resistance of the monks in Longchengguan, they lost nearly 10% of their manpower in Longchengguan.

In other words, up to now, only 40% of the heart demons can be put into the hands of Zhongling.

Forty percent is then divided into two, that is 20%.

With 20% of the manpower to meet the monks of all races except the west of Zhongling and the sword cultivators of Jianzong's western expedition, it is not that the human race has no chance of winning.

"Twenty percent of the hands are unpredictable, but forty percent of the hands are crushing."

"The overall crushing method is a bit stupid and slow, but it is better than walking steadily, which can minimize the occurrence of accidents."

"There is a saying from the human race, I think it makes sense..." Hun Zun said slowly.

"A good doctor has no glorious name, and a good fighter has no great achievements!"

"Individual battles may be reversed through tactics and means, but at the level of war, conspiracy and means become second, and the most important and crucial thing should be strength."

"I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet?"

"There are too many conspiracies, and there is always a time to play off, but the strength is eternal."

"As you said, the troops are divided into two groups. Once successful, it will indeed destroy the last resistance force of Zhongling in one fell swoop, thereby reducing the loss of our spirit capture."

"But once it fails, it is not a loss, and it will even cause us to lose everything."

"Since we have an absolute advantage in strength, we should maintain this advantage all the way instead of abolishing our martial arts." Hun Zun did not lose his mind because of the fall of the soul, and analyzed extremely calmly.

"Hun Zun, will you lose too much by acting like this!" Yu Zun already leaned towards the method of overall crushing that Hun Zun said, but there was still a little worry on his face.

It is conceivable that once the grand pass of the Long Night Mountain Range is established, it will inevitably become a bloody field.

"As long as we cross this threshold, there will be absolutely no existence in the world that can compete with us."

"At that time, for every one more person who dies in the Changye Mountains, we will save ten deaths from the Demon Clan of the Wujieyu in the future. Zhongling thought that he could use the Changye Mountains to intercept our big dragon, but he didn't know that he was actually raising a dragon!" Soul Venerable sneered and said Zhang Yang said.

These words ended here, and finally Yu Zun was completely convinced.

He nodded heavily, and said in a deep voice, "Then it's as you said."

.........

Yishui, the sky is getting dark.

This pursuit of Huanlingzong demon cultivators and monsters has been going on for a long time.

The dome of light never ceases to shine.

a corner.

Xixiang, who has completed the seven realms, is from the same clan as the other three, and has been chasing and killing a demon cultivator of the Huanling sect at the first calamity realm for a long time.

Both parties have consumed a lot.

"Dingjunfeng, break the army sword formation." Suddenly, Xixiang found a backhand attack from the Huanlingzong demon cultivator, and the old method had not been eliminated, and the new method had not yet emerged, so he stopped shouting.

The three old sword cultivators beside him immediately followed the sound and quickly occupied the important places in all directions.

Jianxiu has always been a lone ranger, and he rarely talks about rehearsing and finishing battles.

Compared with the others, the old sword cultivators have exhausted energy and blood, and their strength is not as good as before, but they are not completely without advantages.

That is, they can calm down, and they are a little more gentle than the unruly young sword cultivators.

Therefore, they were able to practice the combined formation that is rarely seen in sword repair.

Xixiang occupied the east corner, and the sword light swayed like water.

The other three places in the west, north and south are also sparkling with sword light.

Afterwards, the four beams of sword light shrank, merged into one, and aroused.

It can be seen that after cutting out this sword, the faces of the four old sword repairmen all became as pale as snow-capped mountains.

They are indeed old.

Even monks have to obey the old.

Gathering a sword, and skimming a distance of several miles, the killing intent was pure, like a stream of light in the universe, and in an instant, he slashed at the head of the Huanlingzong monk who was in the first calamity state!

The Huanlingzong cultivator clasped his hands together, trying to catch the sword light.

As a result, just as Jian Guang arrived, it actually separated again, split into two, split into four, pierced through his fingers, and sank into his chest, between his eyebrows.

The pure and exquisite killing intent erupted instantly.

The entire figure of Huanlingzong monks began to flicker and flicker under the army-breaking sword array.

I don't know how many times it has changed like this. With a bang, the Huanlingzong monk let out a miserable cry, and his body suddenly burst into thousands of rays of light like the sun.

In fact, it wasn't ten thousand rays of light, but ten thousand tiny holes appeared on his body.

boom!

After a while, a cloud of blood mist exploded.

The four old sword cultivators of the sword sect looked at each other, and finally couldn't help but smile happily.

"Happy!" Xi Xiang shouted.

Even though the time limit is approaching, even though they haven't used their swords for many years, they can still cross the border and kill the enemy.

Four sword cultivators at the peak of the Seventh Realm successfully beheaded a demon cultivator of the Huanlingzong at the First Tribulation Realm through a joint fencing formation!

"Go, go back." Xi Xiang put away the mustard seeds of the Huan Lingzong monk and said.

 …

By the time the four of Xixiang returned to Yishui, the pursuit was over.

The sword cultivators gathered at Yishuitai, hurrying to recover the mana they had just consumed.

There is an old sword repair running around, counting the battle damage and the number of enemies killed this time.

Their Young Sect was standing aside solemnly waiting for the final report.

Finally, after the statistics were completed, Lu Qingshan stepped forward and coughed lightly, and announced loudly to everyone: "In the battle of Yishui, Jianzong killed a thousand or two hundred enemies.

Among them, there are eleven in the eighth realm, two hundred in the seventh realm, and more than a thousand in the sixth realm. "

Jianzong lost two veteran sword cultivators of the First Tribulation Realm, Chang Tian and Yu Le, nine Seventh Realm Sword Cultivators, namely Qi Yun, Qin Yu...and twenty-seven young disciples... …”

Speaking of this, Lu Qingshan's heart was heavy.

Older gingers are more spicy.

This is not just a matter of cultivation, because Jianzong is the pursuit side, so they have the right to choose their opponents.

The old sword cultivators are old and old, but whether it is the skills of killing the enemy, the way of saving their lives, or their vision, they are much better than the young disciples.

But no matter what...

"Jianzong's first battle after ascending to Zhongling, a big victory!" Lu Qingshan said loudly.

This victory does not have much impact on Zhongling's overall situation.

This is just a small partial victory.

But it's also a good start.
