Chapter 1967 No Way to Retreat

Qu Jianlei didn't pay much attention to the cultivators at the edge of the stone pillar formation. He released a flying boat and left with Jia Shuiqing.

However, the journey home was not very smooth. The flying boat was stopped before it flew far.

His and Jia Shuiqing's auras had been recorded, and they knew that they were cultivators who volunteered to guard the border.

But someone still asked them to enter the detection array to check whether there was any remaining demonic energy, and there were also handheld detection magic weapons.

Qu Jianlei was willing to cooperate at first, after all, he also wanted to know whether he was infected by the demon.

However, during the third test, someone asked him to take out the items on his body, and he turned his face directly.

"I'm surprised, cultivators who have been guarding the border for a long time, being insulted by the guys in the back, who gave you the courage?"

"Master Qu Ling, listen to me," a true immortal hurried over and said with a smile.

"This is what the alliance wants. The demons are really hard to guard against!"

"Yu Chen Zhenxian, you are a casual cultivator," Qu Jianlei said expressionlessly, "Is it appropriate for you to covet other people's wealth and goods?"

"I dare not, I dare not," Yu Chen Zhenxian waved his hands quickly, looked around, and said, "Someone from Zhongzhou is coming."

"Then don't bully me," Qu Jianlei said with a dark face, "I don't like to cause trouble, but I'm not afraid of it, understand?"

"I understand, how can I not understand?" Yu Chen Zhenxian replied with a smile, "Anyway, it's good for you to be strong occasionally."

"It's really inexplicable," Qu Jianlei shook his head, got on the flying boat again, and left.

Watching the flying boat go away in an instant, Yu Chen Zhenxian was stunned for a while, then shook his head and sighed.

After this incident, things went much more smoothly afterwards.

Although some people stopped the flying boat for inspection, Qu Jianlei showed up directly, "Get lost, Hongyeling people, let's go home!"

Then the two of them took a day to arrive at Hongyeling very smoothly.

This place is still quite peaceful, no patrolling cultivators can be seen, and Sujia Village has expanded a little.

Hua Xiezi and Xiangxue are on duty in the front mountain. After seeing the flying boat, they exclaimed, "The boss is back!"

A figure flashed, and it was the paranoid who appeared, "You came back just in time, just now you said whether you want to do a divination... Tianyin is going to break through."

"Tianyin..." Qu Jianlei hesitated, then nodded, "Okay, wait for me to rest for two days, she is in seclusion?"

Everyone said before that the next person to break through would be Bentley, but that was the Jindan breaking through the Yuanying.

And Ben may not be the first, Muyu is not far from breaking through, and the two don't know who will be first and who will be later.

But the one who is really closest to breaking through should be Tianyin, she is breaking through the Jindan.

Then another figure flashed, and a beautiful lady in palace dress appeared. She smiled lightly, "I heard that you encountered the demons. Is it okay?"

This dress is a bit unaccustomed to welcoming people. Qu Jianlei nodded and sighed, "Cangwu Realm... has not been peaceful since then."

"Tell me about it," Jiao Daoren also showed up, still in the shape of a small snake, "What are the characteristics of these demons?"

In the six months that Qu Jianlei and his team guarded the formation, the news that the exploration team encountered the demons had spread widely.

Unlike the Empire, the Federation and other countries that hid it, Dongsheng did not block this kind of news.

After they confirmed the news of encountering the demons, they began to publicize it widely, and the war machine began to start.

Anyway, after the battle with the tiger man, the cultivators in Dongsheng also understood one thing: it is impossible to run when encountering such a disaster.

Zhongzhou and other places are extremely repulsive to cultivators who run away without resistance, and many things have happened.

However, Zhongzhou is not ruthless. They will organize cultivators to come together to resist the alien race, and their enthusiasm is quite high.

In the final analysis, the lips and teeth are cold, who can understand this?

Through past experience, the cultivators of Dongsheng know very well that they can't retreat at this time, they can only resist.

It is also worth mentioning that compared with the preparations for war elsewhere, Hongyeling is calm and no one comes to visit.

Later, Li Yuren came to visit specially, not only to inform him of the battle with the demon, but also to explain why no one came to disturb him.

Qu Jianlei and Jia Shuiqing not only joined the exploration team, but also took the initiative to guard the periphery of the formation. This is known to all cultivators.

In this case, whoever dares to point fingers at Hongyeling will at least be untenable in terms of morality.

And no matter whether it is the Li family, the Ji family or the He family, they all owe the favor to the Lord of Quling, and will not let outsiders toss.

Not to mention that Hongyeling itself is not easy to mess with. Although two true immortals have left, there are at least three more in the family.

But at the same time, there are many people visiting Hongyeling at present, most of whom are small and medium-sized forces, and there are also large forces.

But since Qu Jianlei and Jia Shuiqing went to war, Hongye Ridge has basically fallen into a semi-closed state.

In the past six months, only two True Immortals, Li Yuren and Zhu Jiayi, visited and were welcomed in.

Even the acquisition of secret books has basically fallen into a semi-suspended state.

Wu Laoliu only goes down the mountain once every ten days or half a month, mainly to Sujia Village.

Occasionally he will go to Yanjiafang Market, but once he arrives there, he will be sought after by a large number of people.

Now the top cultivators in Dongsheng already know that he is Wu Minxi of the past.

However, although the bounty of Baiyao Valley has not been withdrawn, those who are well-informed already know that he has washed his hands.

The most critical factor is that everyone knows that Hongyeling has closed the mountain gate, but there are still many people who want to contact them now.

This requires mentioning their battle in the void.

Although the true immortals of the two teams are basically in the same group, the cultivators under their command come from all directions.

The battle between Hongyeling and Tianmo was spread as if it was a miracle.

Everyone knows that they are the nemesis of Tianmo - in that battle, Hongyeling's team did not suffer any losses.

At the same time, Tianmo's invasion of Dongsheng and even Cangwu Realm is imminent.

In this case, who would be stupid enough not to want to make friends with them?

Once the battle starts in Dongsheng, everyone will not even have the possibility of escaping to Zhongzhou, so where should they hide?

Defending the mountain gate is the basic choice. No one will easily give up their own foundation, but... what if they are invincible?

No mistakes, one post, one content, one book, one forum, one 6, one 9!

Most of the small and medium-sized forces have set their sights on Hongye Ridge, which is the only known force that can effectively deal with the demons.

Of course, some people also believe that Hongye Ridge was able to win because the number of demons it encountered was not large.

When the demon army really arrives, what use will the few people in Hongye Ridge have?

In the past, when fighting with the tiger people, Dongsheng was not without ruthless people, and even fought against the tiger people's out-of-body great master.

But there are too many Yuanying among the tiger people. If they rush forward, even the fiercest people will have to kneel.

In any case, Hongye Ridge is one of the hopes for everyone to resist the demons, and small and medium-sized forces want to establish a relationship with it.

Even among the twelve major forces, there are also people who want to establish a relationship.

It's just that the major forces have more considerations, and they feel that things are not yet impossible, so they are more or less reserved.

But even so, the Zhu family and Cuiping Mountain have visited them, and they are both among the twelve major forces.

The most common questions asked about Wu Laoliu were about the huge tree and the broken knife.

But he was really confused, because he had never seen it, let alone heard of it.

So he could only say that he was just a servant, and he really didn't know and didn't dare to ask.

Before, he was a little ashamed to admit that he was under a ban, but now it seems that it might be a good thing.

After being surrounded twice in the market, Wu Laoliu didn't go to the market anymore, but went to Sujia Village.

Whether he could acquire more secret books was not very important - it was said that there were not many spiritual stones on the ridge.

It was also because of this rumor that more and more people came to Sujia Village.

Needless to say, just get familiar with each other first, so that we can communicate further in the future, right?

As evidence, the day after Qu Jianlei and the others came back, Yan Xuemin came to the door with the family's Taishang Yan Jinhai.

Although Yan Jinhai was a fake infant, he rarely came to Hongye Ridge in person because of his physical condition.

But this time, he had to come. Qu Lingzhu had done such a big thing in the void, and Yan Xuemin's Jindan was really not qualified.

What Yan Jinhai came to discuss was to expand the territory of Hongyeling.

The land that Qu Jianlei and others bought at that time was only a little over 100 square kilometers.

And within 50 or 60 kilometers around Hongyeling, except for Sujia Village, there were almost no fixed houses.

There were some scattered families living, but they were all illegal, and the industry was not protected.

Yan Jinhai hoped that Hongyeling would expand at least 20 kilometers to the surrounding area, and the land area would exceed thousands of square kilometers.

As for the price, it was easy to negotiate. The Yan family Taishang said that 100 spirit stones would be enough, and if it really didn't work, one would be fine.

Expanding Hongyeling was not his idea, but a suggestion made by the Cultivator Alliance.

As long as Hongyeling is willing, the Alliance can issue a permanent certificate to confirm that the land will always belong to them.

The relevant expenses can be given symbolically. The key is that the Cultivator Alliance hopes to build this place into a refuge.

Once the demons invade, all cultivators and mortals in Dongsheng will face the question of where to go.

The cultivator alliance believes that the strength of Hongye Ridge can at least withstand the attacks of demons of considerable strength.

Although this force has not been operating here for a long time, it also has means similar to the demon-suppressing formation, which is not worse than the twelve major mountain gates.

This is not the alliance's wishful thinking, nor is there any intention of moral kidnapping, it is simply that they think their strength is strong enough!

Apart from anything else, such a force can't easily give up the mountain gate, right?

Even if we don't talk about the hard work of construction, the fourth-level spirit vein itself is hard to come by.

Since Hongye Ridge will not give up resistance, it will also shelter the people who come to take refuge. There is no conflict between the two.

Hongye Ridge has no natural obligation to protect refugees, but no matter what, everyone is a native of Dongsheng.

The last battle with the tiger people was like this. People from Dongsheng faced a situation where they could not retreat.
