Chapter 811 The Last Leg, Jiuyuan Sect Counterattacks
Song Qingyu's cultivation has reached the sixth level of the Golden Core, and she is also practicing the way of sword cultivation that is good at fighting. Her strength is rare among cultivators below the late Golden Core stage.
She was a little angry because she had been secretly preparing for a long time before, but failed to directly kill Liu Jinhe, who was only at the second level of the Golden Core.
Li Wutong had just used the high-level "Breaking Array Pearl" to forcibly open a corner of the formation. Song Qingyu, who had long been eyeing Liu Jinhe, immediately rushed into the formation and vowed to save his life to relieve his unhappiness.
Liu Jinhe, who was activating the teleportation array, was startled when he saw the sharp sword light coming from a distance. He quickly shouted to the foundation-building disciples guarding the teleportation platform:
"I will stop her, you quickly activate the magic array, otherwise once the teleportation array is destroyed, none of us can leave."
In the world of immortal cultivation, whether it is a large teleportation magic array or a small teleportation array, it cannot be affected during teleportation.
If the teleportation array is attacked from outside when it is activated, the teleportation will fail at best, causing everyone to be backfired by the spiritual power generated by the teleportation array, and in severe cases, they will fall into the space crack and be directly swallowed by the space storm.
Having seen how powerful Song Qingyu is, Liu Jinhe also knows in his heart that the second-level superior magic array at the location of the teleportation array platform cannot stop the opponent, so he can only bite the bullet and go to stop the opponent.
The pain from the broken arm of the ninja came from Liu Jinhe's single arm. A golden iron tower appeared in front of him with a single wave of his arm. Under his spell, it quickly enlarged dozens of times and blocked the front of the teleportation platform.
Although he knew that he was not the opponent's opponent, Liu Jinhe had no more choices at this moment. He could only rely on the magic weapon on his body to resist Song Qingyu's powerful attack and try to buy time for his side to escape.
After a while, there was a loud "boom" sound, which shook the entire teleportation platform for a few times.
At the same time, the iron tower magic weapon in Liu Jinhe's hand had been broken into two pieces, and the whole person was knocked away by Song Qingyu's fierce sword and fell next to the teleportation platform.
"Master!"
"Master, come here quickly, the teleportation array has been activated."
"..."
Seeing that their master Liu Jinhe was seriously injured by Song Qingyu's sword and could only stand up with difficulty, the disciples who had just activated the teleportation array were shocked and couldn't help shouting.
Seeing the anxious faces of the people on the teleportation platform, Liu Jinhe, who had just spit out a mouthful of blood, did not rush to meet them, but said to his disciples with a serious face:
"You go first, don't worry about me!"
"My master has practiced for a lifetime and has long been a person who has been ruined on the road. Since it is destined that I can't leave today, let me escort you for the last journey with my life!
Yuancheng, you keep these things. In the future, when my master is not here, they will rely on you to take care of them."
After Liu Jinhe finished speaking, a spiritual light flashed in his hand, and a green jade pendant flew out directly and fell into the hands of a foundation-building cultivator on the teleportation platform.
Afterwards, Liu Jinhe, holding a flying sword, ignored the anxiously shouting disciples and resolutely rushed towards Song Qingyu who had just broken the magic circle.
"Master..."
After receiving the storage magic weapon thrown by his master, before the people on the teleportation platform recovered from the shock, a flash of white light enveloped the entire teleportation array platform.
A moment later, on a stone platform on the top of a high mountain in the central part of Yue State.
Several cultivators standing around the stone platform saw that the teleportation platform they were guarding was suddenly covered by white light, and hurriedly turned sideways to look at the middle of the stone platform.
After a while, the white light dissipated, and several cultivators who had just teleported from a distance suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
"Hey! Why did you guys come back? How is Nanyuefang? Is Junior Brother Liu okay?"
Before they walked down from the teleportation platform, two white lights flashed in the distance, followed by a somewhat anxious voice that fell into the ears of several people.
Seeing the two Jindan cultivators suddenly appearing not far away, they hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to the ground with excitement.
"Uncle Li, Uncle Wei, Nanyuefang has been breached. Master asked us to come back and report the news. Please help to save Master and the others!"
"What! Nanyuefang was breached so quickly, how is this possible?"
Hearing the words from the newcomers, the two Jindan elders of the "Jiuyuan Sect" who had just arrived showed a bit of shock on their faces, and asked again in disbelief.
"Xiaoyao Sect has a large number of people, and five or six Jindan masters have come. They also used high-level formation-breaking beads. We were just protected by Master and escaped."
"Get out of the way!"
Before the Jindan elder finished speaking, a "boom" sound suddenly came from the teleportation platform, followed by a burst of spiritual light exploding on the formation platform.
After the smoke cleared, the Jindan elder surnamed Wei from the Jiuyuan Sect immediately came up to check and found that the teleportation array had been destroyed by the other party's cultivators.
Seeing this, Li and Wei, the two Jindan elders of the Jiuyuan Sect who were originally planning to support the Nanyuefang, looked at each other and showed a bit of ugliness on their faces.
——
Southeast of Yue State, in the Nanyuefang.
After taking a look at the teleportation array destroyed by his sword, Song Qingyu, who was standing in the air, just landed, and three foundation-building disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect surrounded him.
"Reporting to Master Song, we have controlled the area around the teleportation array. Except for the few people who escaped before, no one has escaped.
We have just checked that the Jindan cultivator guarding this place is named Liu Jinhe, the one who just died under Master Song's sword."
Song Qingyu nodded slightly after hearing this, and glanced at a corpse not far away, and then brought a few people to Liu Jinhe, who had completely lost his breath.
"Uncle Master, do you want us to take this man's head back and give it to the sect's Good Deeds Pavilion to ask for your merit?"
Hearing the foundation-building cultivator's suggestion, Song Qingyu, with a very calm face, shook his head directly, and then said softly:
"The magic weapon on this person is already in my hands, so there is no need to bother.
Just now at the last moment, he risked his life to stop me in order to cover the escape of those people. He is also a man who values friendship and loyalty. Don't let his body be exposed in the wilderness. Move it to a clean place on the mountain to bury it!"
Although Liu Jinhe was a hostile "Jiuyuan Sect" cultivator, he just sacrificed himself to fight for the opportunity for his disciples to escape, which still touched Song Qingyu's heart and made her respect him a little.
"Disciple obeys the order!"
Seeing that several "Xiaoyao Sect" disciples beside him took Liu Jinhe's body away, Song Qingyu slowly turned around and then turned into a beam of light and disappeared on the spot.
After a battle, the powerful "Xiaoyao Sect" quickly captured the entire market and eliminated the remaining enemies in the market.
In addition to the death of all the garrisoned cultivators of the "Jiuyuan Sect", most of the independent cultivators in the market and some cultivators from the surrounding immortal families chose to surrender after the "market formation" was broken.
Only a few lucky people escaped from the market during the chaos of the battle.
When Song Qingyu returned to the large flying boat of the sect in the air, the other Jindan elders of the "Xiaoyao Sect" also successively solved the enemies in their respective positions and returned to the flying boat.
When everyone was present, Li Wutong, who was in charge of the operation, immediately smiled and said to the people in front of him: "Thank you for your hard work, junior brothers and sisters."
As soon as Li Wutong finished speaking, a middle-aged man in a green robe among the crowd immediately bowed and replied:
"We are here to serve the sect, Senior Brother Li, please don't be polite. Now the enemies in Nanyuefang have been completely eliminated. Please give us orders on what to do next."
The person who spoke was named Shen Tongzhou, a Jindan elder who had just joined the sect after the "Xiaoyao Sect" went north not long ago.
Shen Tongzhou was a Jindan casual cultivator from Peiguo in the south of Weiguo. Now his cultivation has reached the peak of the third level of Jindan, and he is only one step away from entering the middle stage of Jindan.
Long before joining the "Xiaoyao Sect", Shen Tongzhou was already familiar with several Jindan elders in the sect. It was only after Chu Fengping's strong efforts that he gave up his casual cultivator status and joined the "Xiaoyao Sect".
Because he has always had a good relationship with the sect, and he is a person who knows the roots of the surrounding countries.
After becoming a guest elder of the sect, Shen Tongzhou quickly gained the trust of the "Xiaoyao Sect" and has now officially integrated into the sect as an inner sect elder.
Hearing what Shen Tongzhou said, Li Wutong nodded slightly, and immediately opened his mouth to tell everyone present: "Since the market has been cleared, we must quickly repair the market formation to prevent the people of Jiuyuan Sect from counterattacking.
Junior Brother Song and I stayed to repair the market formation, and Junior Brother Fang and Junior Sister Song took people to clear the immortal cultivation families around the market to prevent them from making trouble behind the scenes.
The spiritual stone vein behind the mountain was handed over to Junior Brother Shen and Junior Sister Yun.
Although there are no Jindan cultivators stationed there, it is so important. , they may have a backup plan.
You should be careful and don't let the people of Jiuyuan Sect destroy the mine. "
"Brother, don't worry. I will leave this matter to Senior Sister Yun and me. However, there is nothing to be afraid of a bunch of rabble. Whoever dares to take the mine, I will skin him alive."
Shen Tongzhou's hot temper is somewhat similar to Jin Ziyuan. Although he has not been in the sect for a long time, he quickly got along with everyone. Just a few words caused laughter around him.
Seeing this, Li Wutong also smiled and nodded slightly without saying anything more.
After everyone around him left, he took out a sound transmission talisman and passed the victory report to the sect monks who were waiting for the news in the back.
In the previous battle, the market formation of "Nanyuefang" was only affected by the formation-breaking beads and destroyed a few formation eyes. The overall damage was not serious.
Under the leadership of Song Qingming, a third-level upper-grade formation master, the Xiaoyao Sect took less than two days to restore most of the entire market formation.
Song Qingyu and Fang Baixuan acted separately. Under the leadership of the two Jindan cultivators, many immortal cultivation families around the Nanyuefang that were vassalized by the Jiuyuan Sect also surrendered.
Except for a few loyal families with close ties to the Jiuyuan Sect, who received the news in advance and led the entire family to flee desperately, Song Qingyu and others encountered almost no decent resistance.
There were even some immortal cultivation families that had been oppressed by the Jiuyuan Sect. After learning that the Xiaoyao Sect had captured Nanyuefang, they took the initiative to act as guides to help Song Qingyu and others attack other nearby immortal cultivation families.
In a few days, Song Qingyu and the others cleared all the nearby immortal cultivation families and made them change their appearance and surrender to the Xiaoyao Sect.
As expected, Shen Tongzhou and Yun Nishang took less than half a day to lead their men to seize the "Jiuyuan Sect" spiritual stone vein not far from "Nanyuefang".
However, what they didn't expect was that, as Li Wutong had said before, the people of "Jiuyuan Sect" had left a backup plan in the vein.
When they learned that "Xiaoyao Sect" was coming to attack the vein, several "Jiuyuan Sect" foundation-building monks guarding the spiritual stone mine ordered their monks to use the second-level spiritual talismans prepared in advance to blow up the entire vein before withdrawing.
Fortunately, Shen Tongzhou and others arrived in time to stop them, and killed some of the "Jiuyuan Sect" monks who blew up the vein, and did not let their plan succeed completely.
However, even so, nearly half of the entire "Spiritual Stone Vein" mining area was destroyed in the explosion. It would probably take at least several years to clean up these places and start mining again.
Shen Tongzhou, who saw the "Spirit Stone Mine" being blown up by the enemy, was furious. Then, with nowhere to vent his anger, he took it out on the "Jiuyuan Sect" monks who were captured in the mine.
He ordered the killing of the enemy monks who had surrendered on the spot, and hung all their bodies at the entrance of the mine, which made the nearby monks and mortals pale.
After controlling the entire "Nanyuefang" area, the "Xiaoyao Sect" gathered in the market again and began to prepare for the counterattack of the enemy at any time.
In this battle, the "Xiaoyao Sect" directly captured the "Nanyuefang" under the command of Jiuyuan Sect under the banner of exterminating the demon cultivators.
Not only was Liu Jinhe, the "Jiuyuan Sect" Jindan elder, killed, but also hundreds of foundation-building and Qi-refining disciples, all died in the hands of the "Xiaoyao Sect".
The territory of thousands of miles in the southeast of Yue State has therefore fallen into the control of the "Xiaoyao Sect".
As a Yuanying sect, "Jiuyuan Sect" would not suffer such a loss.
Song Qingming and others knew without thinking that the other party would not easily give up "Nanyuefang" and the surrounding territories.
The reason why "Nanyuefang" was taken down so smoothly was mainly because "Xiaoyao Sect" took advantage of its unpreparedness and succeeded in a surprise attack. It would definitely not be so easy to defend it next time.
Just as Song Qingming and others were preparing for battle, several large flying boats with the flags of "Jiuyuan Sect" thousands of miles away in the sky had already rushed towards "Nanyuefang".
On the flying boat, eight Jindan elders of "Jiuyuan Sect" looked ahead, and each of them had a solemn look on their faces.
After a while, a sword light flew in the distance and landed directly on the flying boat.
The visitor bowed directly to an old man in a blue and white Taoist robe in front of him, and then slowly said: "Reporting to the headmaster, I have just gone to the vicinity of Nanyuefang to inquire.
The situation is similar to what Junior Brother Zhou and the others said. There are a total of six Jindan cultivators in the Xiaoyao Sect in the market.
The leader is Li Wutong, who is at the eighth level of Jindan. The rest are Song Qingming, Song Qingyu, Fang Baixuan, Yun Nishang, and another person whose name is not clear to you. We only know that he is an early Jindan cultivator.
In addition, there are more than 100 foundation building and more than 800 Qi refining cultivators stationed in the market.
Most of them are from the Xiaoyao Sect, and some are sent by the surrounding immortal cultivation families who have surrendered to them to help."
"Okay! You go down first."
After hearing the report from the visitor, Yue Wuji, the head of the "Jiuyuan Sect", still had no change on his face, and his eyes were still fixed on the front.
Wang Ziheng, another Jindan elder standing beside him, asked with a serious expression:
"Master, I heard that the Song brothers and sisters' magical powers are not weaker than those of Jindan late-stage cultivators. I didn't expect that both of them would come this time.
In addition to Li Wutong, the old rival, the other party has three Jindan late-stage warriors in the market. Although we have more people, it may not be so easy to take back the market!"
"Alas! Junior Brother Wang, you are wrong. We have eight Jindan cultivators this time, and we have these high-level treasure ships and thousands of disciples to help.
Even if we can't take down the other party's Jindan warriors in a short time, the foundation-building and Qi-refining disciples are several times theirs. Xiaoyao Sect has only so few people, so it is definitely not able to defend the market. "
Yue Wuji nodded slightly and said, "Junior Brother He is right. The war is imminent. Don't let others' ambitions be boosted and your own prestige be destroyed.
Let alone revenge for Junior Brother Liu and the fellow disciples who died in the battle, you all know how important Nanyuefang is to the sect. No matter what, we can't just give it to the people of Xiaoyao Sect.
Don't worry, the Supreme Elder has come out of retreat. If we can't win this battle, he will not sit idly by. "
Hearing the news that the Supreme Elder of the sect has come out of retreat, the people of "Jiuyuan Sect" who had some doubts on their faces just now suddenly showed some joy.
After most of the day's journey, the three large flying boats that the people of "Jiuyuan Sect" were riding on finally appeared in the sky above the north of "Nanyuefang".
"My fellow disciples, follow me to take back Nanyuefang and avenge Junior Brother Liu!"
With the order from the head of the sect Yue Wuji, thousands of cultivators jumped down from the flying boat, and then these people rushed to "Nanyuefang" from all directions.
The many cultivators of "Xiaoyao Sect" standing on the city wall were prepared in their hearts, but when they saw the "Jiuyuan Sect" cultivators rushing in groups from a distance, a trace of nervousness appeared on their faces.
"Activate the formation! Prepare to fight the enemy."
When the "Jiuyuan Sect" monks outside were about to approach the city wall, a somewhat inspiring voice suddenly resounded in the ears of many "Xiaoyao Sect" disciples.
Then a purple light shield quickly rose outside the market, firmly protecting the front of the city wall, and then hundreds of sword lights flew out of the market and stood in front of the formation.
These people were all foundation-building monks carefully selected by the "Xiaoyao Sect". Standing in the front of the crowd were six Jindan elders of the sect, including Song Qingming.
Seeing so many sect elders and foundation-building monks blocking the front, the Qi-refining disciples on the city wall also encouraged their spirits and began to control the bows and crossbows on the city wall to attack the enemies who had already arrived in front of them.
After the monks of both sides began to fight, the entire battlefield soon erupted with earth-shaking sounds, and colorful spells were flying everywhere.
Although the number of people on the "Xiaoyao Sect" side is small, they are all elite cultivators selected by the sect, and they are supported by the "Mountain Protection Formation" in the market, so they are not inferior to the other side in momentum for a while.
The foundation-building and Qi-refining cultivators below are fighting fiercely, but because the battlefield is too large, it is difficult for the two sides to determine the winner in a short time. The main factor that determines the trend of the battlefield is Song Qingming and other Jindan cultivators in the sky.
There are only six Jindan cultivators on the "Xiaoyao Sect" side, two fewer than the other side.
However, after the battle, Song Qingming and others are not much worse than the "Jiuyuan Sect" in terms of cultivation and magical powers, and they are not at a disadvantage overall.
Song Qingming, who has the highest cultivation, faced Yue Wuji, the head of the "Jiuyuan Sect", who is also at the ninth level of Jindan, while Li Wutong fought with Linghu Jie, another "Jiuyuan Sect" Jindan late master.
Several people are veteran Jindan cultivators who have broken through to the late Jindan for many years. Both sides have good magic weapons and trump cards, and they fight back and forth.
Song Qingyu fought two "Jiuyuan Sect" Jindan mid-stage cultivators alone, and he was also not at a disadvantage.
Although Fang Baixuan and Yun Nishang were cultivators who formed the Jindan later in the sect, they did not let the opponent take advantage of their opponents with similar cultivation after entering the battlefield.
Shen Tongzhou's performance against the two slightly weaker Jindan early-stage cultivators of the "Jiuyuan Sect" also made everyone's eyes light up. Although it was a bit difficult, he managed to hold on and did not ask for help from fellow disciples around.
This battle lasted from the afternoon to dusk.
As time went on, the "Xiaoyao Sect" side, which was at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, gradually showed its disadvantage, and even the "Mountain Protection Formation" was almost broken by the opponent's large flying boat.
Fortunately, Song Qingming and others above shook off the opponent and returned to help in time, which blocked the opponent's attack and barely held on until the moment when both sides called off the battle.
The cultivators of both sides fought for nearly a day, and they both needed some time to recover their mana in order to fight again.
At dawn the next day, the "Jiuyuan Sect" monks, who had almost recovered, immediately launched an attack on "Nanyuefang".
At the same time, after a night of repair, the "Jiuyuan Sect" received a lot of reinforcements from the rear cultivation families, and its strength increased again.
After the two sides fought again, the "Xiaoyao Sect" side, which had suffered many casualties, gradually became unable to hold on and could only temporarily retreat to the "Mountain Protection Formation" in the market.
Seeing this, the "Jiuyuan Sect" monks immediately began to besiege the market formation.
In order to speed up the pace of the attack, the "Jiuyuan Sect" also threw out the high-level "Breaking Formation Bead" used by the Xiaoyao Sect monks before, and directly forced open a corner of the market formation and rushed in.
Just when the entire "Nanyuefang" was in danger, many "Xiaoyao Sect" monks suddenly appeared in the back of the market and killed the enemy.
(PS: Sorry, I went out to eat a cake for my birthday today, so I came back a little late. I didn’t slack off, don’t worry!)
