Chapter 166 Arrival at the Branch Sect (Third Update, Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket!)
One day later, Huan Yin, under the guidance of Gudie, successfully bypassed many Wan Du Sect strongholds, large and small, and entered the branch of Wuliang Sect.
The Yanzhou branch of Wuliang Sect was originally very powerful. The mineral veins it occupied were spread throughout the state, and the sect occupied a huge area. However, with the subsequent decline, the current Yanzhou branch of Wuliang Sect has long lost its former glory, and only has three adjacent small spiritual stone veins.
In order to ensure the safety of the three remaining spirit stone veins, the branch of Wuliang Sect built a siege city to encompass all three veins. Huan Yin's current location is also in a meeting place in the besieged city.
"Master Huan, it's great that you can come to our branch!" The old man who spoke at the head of the hall is the current acting sect leader of the branch. His name is Li Ji. He is also the only Huaying realm monk in the branch. .
"Yes, I didn't expect that the situation in Yanzhou would be so tense. We were ambushed as soon as we entered the boundary of Yanzhou. I was also very anxious when I was separated from Master Huan. Fortunately, Master Huan was lucky and there was no danger." This time he spoke. It was Guo Yu who was there. He had also arrived at the branch sect, but it could be seen that he must have been injured.
Huan Yin bowed to the two of them: "Two master uncles, how many of the fifty fellow disciples who came this time have arrived?"
When Guo Yu heard Huan Yin's question, he shook his head and said, "Including you, only eight of my classmates have returned so far."
Huan Yin looked horrified. He did not expect that not even 20% of the brothers who came out of the sect could successfully reach the branch sect this time. So many days have passed, and those fellow disciples who haven't arrived yet are probably in dire straits.
"Secretary uncles, my nephew discovered that a large number of monks from the Wan Du Sect have gathered to the south of our branch. It seems that they are coming with bad intentions." Huan Yin told the information he saw from Lone Butterfly.
Li Ji nodded and said: "Well, they must have discovered our intention to leave, and are gradually gathering together, wanting to take action as soon as possible. Hey, a war is probably inevitable."
"Uncle Master, how is the combat power of the enemy and ours compared?" Huan Yin asked.
Li Ji said solemnly: "We haven't fully figured out what the opponent's strength is at present. But as far as I know, the opponent has at least two monks in the Huaying realm. Moreover, they are local There are so many sects that we can’t compare, which is why they dare to launch a war against us.”
"I have sent thirty Qi Condensation disciples in three groups to investigate the stronghold of Wan Du Sect. We will know the specific situation when they return." Guo Yu's tone was also full of worry.
"Uncle Master, why are you sending Qi Condensing monks there? Their combat power is low. If something unexpected happens, they can't resist at all." Huan Yin can't understand Guo Yu's actions. After all, sending Qi Condensing monks there is like committing suicide. .
Guo Yu had no choice but to say: "The war is right in front of us. Uncle Master, I have no choice but to make this move. After all, the Ten Thousand Poison Sect is already watching not far away. It is difficult for us to guarantee whether they have spies and combat power lurking around us. If the manpower I send has a high level of cultivation, the branch sect will inevitably be weak, and there is no guarantee that it will not be taken advantage of. "
Huan Yin suddenly realized that he heard Li Ji coming again: "Actually, Junior Brother Guo's method is not a big problem. After all, the other side doesn't know our true and false status. Even if the spies are discovered, it is impossible to send people with advanced cultivation to chase them. They should be The one who has the ability to protect himself.”
Huan Yin nodded and said, "Two martial uncles, I wonder how many Lingyun flowers exist in our underground veins?"
Li Ji stretched out three fingers and said, "More than thirty flowers."
Huan Yin was shocked. This number of Lingyun Flowers was indeed a lot. No wonder the sect attached so much importance to it, and the Wandu Sect was so eager to snatch it.
"Not only the Lingyun Flower, although our three mineral veins are about to be exhausted, there are still many spiritual stones that can be mined. The Wandu Sect wants to completely seize everything we have in Yanzhou this time." Guo Yu sighed.
"Two uncles, it's not easy to pick Lingyun flowers. I'm afraid it will take my nephew an hour or even more to pick each flower. Why don't we let my nephew enter the mine veins to pick them now." Huan Yin's face was already showing. Got anxious. As he said, picking Lingyun flowers is extremely difficult and requires repeated observation during the picking process. And every time you pull up the flower from the spiritual stone, you need to observe it again and adjust your technique and strength before you can take action again. Some Lingyun flowers have unique growing conditions, making them more difficult to pick, and it may take several hours.
Li Ji had a look of surprise on his face after hearing Huan Yin's words. Apparently he didn't expect Ling Yunhua to be so delicate. However, Huan Yin is the weapon refiner of Wuliang Sect, so it is impossible for him not to trust Huan Yin. Finally, Li Ji thought for a while and said: "Since it is so difficult to pick the Lingyun Flower, it is better for Master Huan to rest for two days before picking it. In the past few days, I have just arranged for the disciples in the sect to step up the excavation of the last few Lingyun Flowers. It is estimated that they will be able to withdraw from the growing spiritual stone in two days. Now the mine is full of our disciples, and it is noisy, and it will be difficult for Master Huan to concentrate after entering. "
"And in my opinion, if we want to return to the sect, we have to go south, but now our south has been completely blocked by Wan Du Sect. Even if we have picked all the Lingyun flowers now, I'm afraid we can't just leave. It's time to go." Guo Yu took Li Ji's words.
Li Ji nodded and said: "Yes, this war is inevitable."
After listening to the two, Huan Yin frowned and asked, "Did the two uncles ask for help from the sect again?"
Guo Yu nodded, "I sent a message to the sect, and they will probably receive the news in a few days. However, this time the sect only sent fifty of us here, and I guess they won't be able to provide us with much help even if they receive the emergency message from here."
After that, Huan Yin and the other three talked in the hall for a while before leaving.
Huan Yin asked Li Ji for a secret room for cultivation. Li Ji thought Huan Yin needed to recuperate, so he naturally agreed.
After Huan Yin entered the secret room, he took out eight storage bags. These storage bags were naturally from the old man, the young man, and the female cultivator who had "cooperated" with him before.
Huan Yin soon found hundreds of thousands of spirit stones and more than 600 inner pills in these eight storage bags. These things were probably mostly obtained by the two evil cultivators who harmed others on weekdays. Otherwise, how could they be so rich as casual cultivators?
Next, Huan Yin found a lot of elixirs and props in these storage bags, and even found five rare magic weapons such as Xiangfenghe.
"No matter how many you take, they will eventually become someone else's property. Evil will be punished, and the two of them were buried in the dragon's belly, which can be regarded as punishment. It's a pity that the female cultivator was killed in vain by the two of them, ruining her lifelong cultivation." Huan Yin thought to himself.
"Oh, this is the black bead." Huan Yin took out another object from the storage bag. It was the bead that the evil young man used to attract the beast to attack in the sea that day. This bead is strange and weird. It seems that the last dragon that appeared was attracted by it. The inexplicable power in it is so strong that people look sideways.
Huan Yin observed the bead for a long time, but he didn't see anything special. However, when he tried to pour spiritual power into the bead, he could make the bead emit black light and project it around like the young man that day.
"I don't know if this kind of thing will be useful in the future." Huan Yin put away the black bead and took out a fan from a storage bag.
This fan also belonged to the evil young man. When Huan Yin saw the young man being chased by a dragon in the water, he took out this fan for his last fight. Although the young man was swallowed by the dragon in the end, the shadow of the giant spirit holding the mace that flew out of the fan was still fresh in Huan Yin's memory.
Huan Yin opened the fan and saw that both sides of the fan were blank, with nothing on them. It looked extremely ordinary. However, when Huan Yin injected spiritual power into the fan, one side of the fan suddenly had a brilliant light flowing, and gradually the originally white fan surface began to ripple. In the end, layers of clouds and mist appeared on the fan, as if there was a strange world in the fan.
Huan Yin's spiritual power surged again, and the clouds and mist on the fan began to gradually move to both sides. Finally, when the clouds and mist completely dispersed from the middle, a head that almost filled the entire fan surface was revealed.
Huan Yin was startled and continued to use his spirit. Then a giant spirit holding a mace in both hands flew out of the fan and floated in the air. It looked extremely powerful.
"Good baby, I will call you the giant spirit fan from now on!" Huan Yin looked at the fan in his hand with satisfaction and said to himself excitedly.
Next, Huan Yin found a book in a storage bag belonging to the old man. This book looked very old, and the pages were completely yellowed, but there seemed to be an unknown force protecting it, so that the pages were completely wrinkle-free.
Huan Yin took the book in front of him, and the name of the book came into his eyes-Destroying Life Palm.
Huan Yin took the "Destroying Life Palm" and read it for a while, and suddenly found that the bloody palm method of the old man before was learned from this book. However, according to the book, if you want to practice the Destroying Life Palm, you need to reach the realm of concentration at least. The blood palm of the old man before was not the real extinction palm, but a kind of palm technique that he semi-created based on some extremely superficial insights he gained from the book "Extinction Palm".
The blood palm of the old man was already extremely powerful in Huan Yin's opinion, but it was just an extremely inferior and superficial variation of the extinction palm. He simply couldn't imagine how powerful it would be if it was the real extinction palm.
