Chapter 479: Opportunity to Break the Situation

Now, all the important combat forces of the Xiaoyao Sect that can be mobilized at the Jindan level have been sent to various battlefields, leaving only the only third-level middle-grade puppet beast in the sect's treasury.

If this puppet beast can be used well, it is equivalent to a Jindan cultivator. Back then, Chu Fengping faced the two demon kings who broke through Jinshanfang alone. It was with the help of this puppet beast that he blocked the demon beast army in the north of Pingyang County. For the Xiaoyao Sect today, this is the sect's last and most critical Jindan combat force.

Li Mufeng did not use it in Gaoyun County to resist the demon beast army that had already moved south, but instead transferred it to support Jinshanfang. This really made Guangling Zhenren, who was standing below, a little confused.

You must know that the several counties of Jiangling County on the side of Jinshanfang are all relatively remote places in Weiguo, far less prosperous than Gaoyun County backed by Guiyunfang. In terms of the importance of the sect, Gaoyun County must be ranked first.

Moreover, Gaoyun County goes further south and enters Guyang County, which is the core territory of the sect for thousands of years. Whether it is the spiritual veins, spiritual fields or the number of cultivators and mortals, it is not comparable to other counties in Weiguo.

Once the demon beast army heading south from Guiyunfang breaks through the last line of defense of Gaoyun County and enters Guyang County in the south, the entire Weiguo cultivation world will probably suffer the most serious loss in the past two thousand years.

Once the number of mortals in the sect territory is too large, the number of new cultivators in Xiaoyao Sect will also drop sharply, and it will be difficult to recover in a short period of time.

Without a stable injection of fresh blood, even a large Yuanying sect like Xiaoyao Sect, which has been established for thousands of years, is destined to decline over time.

Which is more important between Gaoyun County and Jinshanfang, even Guangling Zhenren can see it at a glance. Li Mufeng, the sect's supreme elder who has controlled Xiaoyao Sect for hundreds of years, naturally cannot be unaware of the relationship between them.

Li Mufeng waved his hand at Guangling Zhenren who was full of doubts and continued to speak: "This time the monster turmoil is different from the past. It has only been half a year, and the sect has suffered such a great loss. The longer the time is delayed, the more disadvantageous it will be for us.

During this period, I have been planning a counterattack against the monsters. If it can be successfully implemented, the sect has about a 50% chance of ending this turmoil in advance. This is also the most needed opportunity for us to break through.

However, everything is not fully prepared now. In order to prevent other changes in the plan, I can't tell you all the situation for the time being. The sect in Gaoyun County still needs you to hold on for a while."

After hearing the shocking words from Li Mufeng, Guangling Zhenren finally reacted, stepped forward and nodded, saying: "Disciple understands, please rest assured, as long as I, Yang Guangling, am still alive, I will never let a monster easily cross Gaoyun County."

After Guangling Zhenren finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to return directly to Gaoyun County. Just as he was about to reach the door of the hall, a golden talisman suddenly flew from above the hall into his hand.

"Take this talisman first. If you encounter a crisis, this talisman should be able to buy you some time. Be sure to use it carefully."

Master Guangling turned around and glanced at Li Mufeng, who had turned his back. After a slight salute with some emotion, he put away the golden talisman and left Guyang Mountain quickly.

In Tiexian Fort, in the main hall of the Ma family,

Since the monster riot, the Ma family has been defending Tiexian Fort alone for half a year. Today, Ma Hongshan no longer has the heroic demeanor he had at the Tuoyun Mountain Trade Fair, and his face is also tired and sad.

Ma Hongshan, who had just gone through a battle, still had many traces of the battle on his clothes. He was listening to a foundation-building cultivator below reporting the battle situation he had just received.

"Third uncle, I just got the news that Fulong Mountain was breached by the monster army yesterday."

Ma Hongshan, who was sitting at the head of the hall, asked with a puzzled look on his face after hearing the news: "Didn't we send people to support them a few days ago? How come the Yu family lost Fulong Mountain so quickly? Did these people escape from the battlefield?"

Seeing that the Jindan ancestor Ma Hongshan above had a hint of anger on his face, the Ma family cultivator who was reporting the battle situation hesitated for a moment and then directly replied to Ma Hongshan:

"According to the cultivator who escaped, the Silver Elephant Demon King suddenly attacked yesterday. Suddenly appeared in Fulong Mountain, catching us off guard. Except for the 20 or 30 people who escaped, most of the Yu family cultivators died on the spot.

When Jing Xuan led his men to the scene, he unfortunately ran into the Silver Elephant Demon King. In order to cover the retreat of others, he took the initiative to lead the demon king away. Later, later...

"What happened to Jing Xuan? Tell me!"

"I just went to the ancestral temple to check, and Jing Xuan's soul lamp has gone out!" The Ma family foundation cultivator who came to report said this with some difficulty, and a few tears flowed down his face involuntarily.

Since the start of the demon beast turmoil, the Ma family has lost hundreds of clansmen in the past six months to defend the Iron Immortal Castle. These people are cultivators trained by the Ma family for many years, and they are also their blood relatives and brothers.

Seeing familiar tribesmen falling in front of him one by one, even though the man in front of him was already a successful foundation-building cultivator, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in his heart.

Hearing the news that his family had lost another foundation-building cultivator, Ma Hongshan was a little bit unacceptable in his heart. He clenched his fists slightly, and sighed after a long time:

"First, concentrate and control the cultivators of the Yu family who escaped back, and don't let the news that Fulong Mountain was breached by monsters spread. Jingxuan's side should also block the news. Now must not shake the morale of the army."

The foundation-building cultivator standing below nodded and said, "Don't worry, Third Uncle, I have arranged this matter before I came, and the cultivators of the Yu family have all been locked up in the back mountain."

Ma Hongshan nodded and said, "You do the work, I am at ease, it doesn't matter if Fuyun Mountain is lost, as long as we can defend Tiexian Fort, we can get them back in the future, but the situation is critical now, I hope God bless the Ma family and we can successfully survive this disaster."

"Third Uncle, how is the situation at Tuoyun Mountain? Didn't Feng Yangde say that he had injured the Yunhe Monster King? Why did he We are still not coming to help. Does Chen Laozu really not want to take care of us this time? "

Ma Hongshan sighed and said, "Chen Laozu's life span is already very short. I am afraid that he has already passed away after so long without any news. Tuoyun Mountain dare not say it directly now in order to stabilize people's hearts.

Feng Yangde, this young man, was still honest in front of me at the beginning. Now he has just formed a fake pill. He really thinks he is a Jindan cultivator. He has been perfunctory in his letters several times. I really don't know why Chen Jinliang chose to hand over Tuoyun Mountain to such a thing.

If I had known that Feng Yangde was such a ruthless and ungrateful person, when Chen Jinliang came to me to discuss this matter, I should not have agreed to help him support Feng Yangde to form a pill. Entrusting Tuoyun Mountain to this person, Chen Jinliang is really blind. "

When mentioning Feng Yangde of Tuoyun Mountain, Ma Hongshan's face also showed a trace of disgust at this moment, venting his dissatisfaction with Feng Yangde.

When Chen Jinliang came to Ma Hongshan to discuss the attack on Dahei Mountain, the three parties actually had their own purposes.

The reason why Chen Jinliang took the lead in this matter was to support his disciple Feng Yangde to form a fake pill and let him help him defend Tuoyun Mountain, which he had created with great difficulty.

Xiaoyao Sect wanted to earn spiritual stones and put its own forces into Tuoyun Mountain. The new market established by both parties in Tuoyun Mountain in recent years has also made Xiaoyao Sect earn a lot of spiritual stones.

In order to defend this new market, Xiaoyao Sect also specially sent a group of foundation-building and Qi-refining monks to support Tuoyun Mountain after the monster riot.

The biggest purpose of the Ma family's help was to clean up Dahei Mountain, which posed the greatest threat to the northwest of Weiguo, and to make some preparations as early as possible so that their lives would be better when the monster riots came next.

Ma Hongshan also knew that after Chen Jinliang passed away, Tuoyun Mountain would lose this powerful Jindan ancestor, and the overall strength would definitely plummet. It might not be able to rush to Tiexianbao in time every time there was a monster riot like before.

According to Ma Hongshan's plan, as long as the Black Flame Tiger, the Jindan middle-stage demon king that posed the greatest threat to Tiexianbao at that time, could be successfully eliminated, the remaining two Jindan early-stage demon kings that had been dealing with Tiexianbao for hundreds of years, even without the support of Tuoyunshan, the Ma family would have enough ability to deal with it on their own.

But what Ma Hongshan never expected was that during this monster riot, two more strange monsters suddenly appeared in the northwest of Weiguo. The current situation of Tiexianbao is already extremely critical, even worse than a hundred years ago.

However, to mention the relationship between Tiexianbao Ma family and Tuoyunshan Chen Jinliang, we actually have to talk about the previous generation of Ma family patriarchs.

Tiexianbao was founded by the previous patriarch of the Ma family hundreds of years ago. By chance, the patriarch succeeded in forming a pill and led the Ma family to gradually rule the northwest territory of Weiguo. It has been in the hands of Ma Hongshan for more than 600 years.

When the previous patriarch of the Ma family was still alive, he helped Chen Jinliang, who had just successfully formed a pill. The two had a very good relationship. Later, he helped Chen Jinliang seize the third-level spiritual vein of Tuoyun Mountain from the monsters. From this point of view, the Ma family still had some favors for Chen Jinliang.

Tiexianbao is located in the must-pass place for monsters to go south, and the pressure of monsters faced is also greater than that of Tuoyun Mountain. After the previous patriarch of the Ma family passed away, although he supported the current patriarch Ma Hongshan to successfully form a pill, Ma Hongshan had just formed a pill not long ago and his strength was still a little insufficient.

Facing the monster turmoil that happens once every hundred years, it is indeed difficult for Ma Hongshan, who has just formed a pill, to resist alone. The entire Tiexianbao soon fell into a huge crisis.
