Chapter 516: Battle of Iron Fort

Tuoyun Mountain is only a few thousand miles away from Tiexian Fort. If a Jindan cultivator travels at full speed, it can reach there in less than half a day.

Song Qingming and others had just arrived at Tiexian Fort when they saw a burst of spiritual light above Tiexian Fort from afar. The Ma family had already activated the mountain protection formation to defend against the enemy.

Outside Tiexian Fort, Yao Qianshu, the head of Xiaoyao Sect, and several other Jindan cultivators were standing in mid-air, facing seven or eight Jindan cultivators who were standing against the mountain protection formation with their backs.

On the side of Tiexian Fort, except for Ma Hongshan who looked calm, the others were all wearing a blue robe embroidered with golden clouds. They were obviously cultivators from the same sect.

Next to Ma Hongshan, there was a beautiful woman in purple. This woman had just formed a pill not long ago and was only at the first level of Jindan. She was the fairy Qiudie who had participated in the "Sword Test Conference" of Tuoyun Mountain with Song Qingming.

When Yao Qianshu and his four companions arrived at Tiexian Fort, they just started to attack the Tiexian Fort mountain protection formation, but many Jindan cultivators flew out of the formation and stopped them.

Seeing that the other side had more people, Yao Qianshu did not dare to continue to attack, and stepped aside to question the other side, asking why they wanted to interfere in the defense of the country.

Although the Tiexian Fort side had a clear advantage in numbers, they seemed to be a little afraid and did not choose to immediately attack the Xiaoyao Sect members. Facing Yao Qianshu's questioning, these people only responded with a few words without any pain, and did not want to argue too much. The two sides just stood there and confronted each other.

After seeing the blue-robed monks who were confronting Yao Qianshu in front, Chu Fengping on the flying boat suddenly changed his face and said loudly: "They are from the Jiuyuan Sect of Yue State. No wonder Ma Hongshan dared to betray the sect. I didn't expect that the Ma family had already surrendered to the Jiuyuan Sect."

Hearing the Jiuyuan Sect mentioned by Chu Fengping, Song Qingming immediately thought of the old Linghu who competed with him for the "Phantom Boat" in the "Seven Star Square" of Wu State a few years ago. This person was from the Jiuyuan Sect.

Jiuyuan Sect is also a Yuanying Sect. The mountain gate is located in the Yue State Xiuxian Realm in the west of Wei State. The Yue State and Wei State Xiuxian Realm are separated by a huge mountain range that stretches for tens of thousands of miles. It is difficult for low-level monks below the foundation to cross, and the monks of the two countries rarely communicate.

The Yue State Xiuxian Realm was originally the same as Zheng State in the east. There were only a few Jindan Sects, and there was no huge Yuanying force like Xiaoyao Sect.

More than a hundred years ago, the great elder Wu Jiuyuan of the Jiuyuan Sect suddenly succeeded in condensing his Nascent Soul and advanced to the Nascent Soul realm. The Jiuyuan Sect also became a Nascent Soul sect. Over the past hundred years, under the leadership of Wu Jiuyuan, the Jiuyuan Sect quickly integrated the entire Yue Kingdom's cultivation world and greatly enhanced its strength, which is not much worse than the current Xiaoyao Sect.

"Humph! Ma Hongshan, this old man who is ungrateful, took so many benefits from the sect, but secretly joined the Jiuyuan Sect. I will definitely take his head off with my own hands later!"

Jin Ziyuan, the elder who passed on the skills of the Xiaoyao Sect, has always had a hot temper. As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Ziyuan had already jumped out of the flying boat and flew to the Iron Immortal Fort.

Half a year ago, Ma Hongshan suddenly went to Guyang Mountain in person and went to the sect's Good Merit Pavilion, wanting to use his good merits to exchange for a large amount of spiritual objects to support his cultivation families.

At that time, the Xiaoyao Sect elder on duty at the Good Deeds Pavilion happened to be Jin Ziyuan. This guy was deeply moved by Ma Hongshan's words and the miserable appearance he pretended to be. He agreed on the spot and let Ma Hongshan take a large number of spiritual objects from the Good Deeds Pavilion.

After learning the news that the Ma family betrayed the sect, Jin Ziyuan was also the most angry among the many elders of the Xiaoyao Sect. Ma Hongshan cheated so many sect spiritual objects from him. Even if the Supreme Elder Li Mufeng did not blame him, this matter would more or less have some bad effects on Jin Ziyuan's future status in the Xiaoyao Sect.

"Ma Hongshan, you shameless villain, give me your life!"

Jin Ziyuan came to the front of the two sides. Before he said hello to Yao Qianshu, he took out a jade ruler magic weapon from his body with an angry face and rushed straight to Ma Hongshan on the opposite side!

"Haha! Jin Ziyuan, I just flattered you a few words in front of you. Do you really think that you can beat me with your cultivation?"

Seeing the furious Jin Ziyuan, Ma Hongshan's momentum immediately changed, and he turned into a golden light and took the initiative to meet him.

Ma Hongshan and Jin Ziyuan were also enemies who were extremely jealous of each other. They started fighting seriously. Both of them were in the fourth stage of Jindan cultivation, and their strengths were not much different. The fight was also very fierce.

"Brothers, follow me and kill Ma Hongshan, the traitor first!"

Bai Yuxian and others had just come to support him. Yao Qianshu, who had confidence in his heart, did not say any more nonsense. He gave an order and took the lead to kill Ma Hongshan who was still fighting with Jin Ziyuan.

Seeing Yao Qianshu take action, Jiuyuan Sect did not hesitate. Immediately, two golden lights came forward to stop Yao Qianshu, and the two sides immediately fought together.

After obtaining the "Mist Snow Ice Lotus" at the Star Conference a few years ago, Yao Qianshu's injuries have recovered to a large extent and he can fight others. However, he has not yet recovered his full strength. At most, he can only exert about 70% of his power in his prime. His strength is equivalent to that of an eighth-level Jindan cultivator.

After receiving the order from the headmaster Yao Qianshu, the rest of the Xiaoyao Sect also immediately took out their magic weapons and rushed directly to the battlefield. More than a dozen Jindan cultivators from both sides fought outside Tiexian Fort.

The outbreak of battles between so many Jindan cultivators is also very rare in the Weiguo cultivation world. Magic weapons were flying everywhere in the sky above Tiexian Fort, and even the mountain protection formation of Tiexian Fort below was shaken violently by the aftermath of the magic of the battle.

The many low-level cultivators of the Ma family hiding in Tiexian Fort were also terrified when they saw the battle between the Jindan masters in the sky, fearing that the mountain protection formation above could not resist and would be affected by the battle between the Jindan cultivators above.

Although the number of Jindan cultivators on both sides was equal, the overall strength of the many Jindan cultivators on the Tiexian Fort side was obviously inferior to that of the Xiaoyao Sect.

Although the Jiuyuan Sect also came with two late Jindan cultivators, their strength was slightly inferior to Bai Yuxian and Yao Qianshu from the Xiaoyao Sect, and they could only barely hold them back.

The remaining people, including Ma Hongshan, only had three mid-stage Jindan cultivators, and the other three were only in the early stage of Jindan. On the Xiaoyao Sect side, except for Song Qingming, who was only in the second level of Jindan, the remaining five were all mid-stage Jindan cultivators, and were obviously much stronger than the other side.

After the fight, the people of Tiexianbao quickly fell into a disadvantage, but Ma Hongshan and others could occasionally use the third-level mountain protection formation behind them to cover them, so they would not be defeated so quickly for the time being.

After Song Qingming joined the battlefield, his opponent happened to be the weakest fairy Qiudie among the many Jindan cultivators of the other side.

When he participated in the "Sword Trial Conference" in Tuoyun Mountain, Song Qingming was also fortunate to meet her once. At that time, this woman shined in the "Sword Trial Conference" and easily won the top three results.

At that time, Song Qingming's cultivation was only the seventh level of foundation building, barely making it into the top ten, and his strength was far less than that of Ma Qiudie, who was already at the peak of foundation building at that time.

Decades passed in a flash, and when they met again, both Song Qingming and Ma Qiudie had successfully formed a golden elixir and became a high-ranking Jindan Zhenren. However, Song Qingming had broken through the Jindan realm first, and his cultivation strength had surpassed Ma Qiudie.

Facing Ma Qiudie, who was only at the first level of Jindan, Song Qingming, who was always cautious in fighting with others, did not underestimate this woman. He summoned his two most powerful magic weapons, "Mobai Sword" and "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror", and was ready to fight, giving the other party no chance to counterattack him.

It had only been five or six years since Ma Qiudie broke through the Jindan realm. Although she had already refined her life magic weapon, her personal strength was still at the bottom in this battle of Jindan cultivators. Facing the fierce attack of Song Qingming's two magic weapons, Ma Qiudie could only rely on her own life magic weapon to barely cope with it, and was soon suppressed by Song Qingming and fell into a disadvantage.

Seeing that this woman was already overwhelmed by his attack, Song Qingming took the opportunity to take off the cloth bag around his waist.

After a ball of black air rolled out of the bag, a man in a black robe soon appeared beside Song Qingming.

"Could this breath be a Jindan-stage corpse puppet!"

Seeing the figure of "Jinfeng", Ma Qiudie also quickly felt the pressure of the Jindan stage coming from him, and shouted in surprise.

Facing Song Qingming alone was already difficult to resist, and with the help of another Jindan corpse puppet, Ma Qiudie immediately became flustered when facing the siege of Song Qingming and the others.

Seeing that he was a little difficult to support, Ma Qiudie's face flashed a trace of decisiveness, and cast a spell to control his own life magic weapon. A pair of gold and silver copper rings directly enlarged and covered the "Jinfeng" on the side, temporarily stopping the other party's actions.

After taking a breath, Ma Qiudie sprinkled a handful of gold powder on Song Qingming on the side, and cast a spell to turn the gold powder in the air into countless silver butterflies, commanding these silver butterflies to entangle Song Qingming.

This technique of turning gold powder into a butterfly is an illusion that Ma Qiudie has practiced for many years. Although this technique is of no great use after reaching the Jindan stage, it should not be difficult to restrain the opponent for a moment. As long as she delays a little time for herself and withdraws to the mountain protection formation in time, she can temporarily turn danger into safety.

Unexpectedly, just as Ma Qiudie turned around and escaped dozens of feet away, she suddenly heard the sound of a magic weapon breaking through the air behind her. She turned around and found that the "Mobai Sword" controlled by Song Qingming had already killed her.

Seeing this, Ma Qiudie was not surprised in time. She quickly cast a spell to release a yellow talisman to turn it into a shield in front of her, and blocked Song Qingming's attack very thrillingly.

This talisman was given to Ma Qiudie by Wu Jiuyuan, the supreme elder of Jiuyuan Sect, for self-defense after she chose to join Jiuyuan Sect. After losing this life-saving trump card, Ma Qiudie panicked and immediately put away the magic weapon in front of her and quickly retreated, trying to distance herself from Song Qingming.
