Chapter 813: Peace Talks, War Ends

An hour later, it was over "Nanyuefang".

This battle has been going on so far. In addition to the many golden elixir monks high in the sky, both sides have suffered many casualties in the foundation building and Qi refining stage low-level monks below. There are hundreds more dead ones on the battlefield. The corpse of a monk who had lost his breath.

In mid-air, Linghujie and the monk named Jindan were fighting with Song Qingming. At this moment, they were facing the fierce attack of Song Qingming and "Golden Wind". They could only passively defend and they were somewhat unable to withstand it.

"Boom!" After a loud noise, the golden bronze bell in front of Linghujie suddenly revealed a crack under Song Qingming's repeated attacks, and then the shield transformed into the bronze bell immediately shattered in front of him.

Seeing that his strongest defensive talisman was broken by Song Qingming's attack, Linghujie was also surprised. He could only take out a defensive talisman and cast it in front of him, and then he barely blocked the next huge attack from "Golden Wind". ax.

Then, before Song Qingming's next attack could arrive, Linghujie immediately stepped aside and hurriedly cast a spell to urge the black hawk puppet beast behind him to step forward to resist the opponent.

Under the vigorous blow of Song Qingming's "Golden Yaobao Halo", as expected, this third-level low-grade puppet beast was directly destroyed by Song Qingming on the spot after only resisting for a moment.

Then it turned back into a palm-sized black block of wood and fell directly from the sky.

The third-level low-grade puppet beast behind him was destroyed by Song Qingming with one blow. The "Three Talents Array" used by Linghujie and the Jindan monk surnamed Lu immediately became ineffective, and they were forced to deal with the attacks of Song Qingming and "Jinfeng" alone.

Whether it is Linghu Jie or the monk named Lu, without the support of the "Three Talents Array", their fighting skills are obviously no match for Song Qingming and "Jin Feng".

After fighting for only a few dozen rounds, the two of them felt that they could no longer hold on any longer, and they began to send messages to the surroundings for help.

"Senior Brother Linghu, save me!"

Hearing the Jindan monk named Lu next to him asking for help, Linghujie, who was forced back by Song Qingming, ignored him and could only send a message to the leader Yue Wuji who was not far away.

"Brother, I can't hold on any longer. Please make up your mind quickly!"

Not long after Linghujie finished speaking, the Jindan monk surnamed Lu was blown away by the "Golden Wind" controlled by Song Qingming. He was a little unsteady and almost fell away after screaming. It fell in the air.

Seeing that Linghujie and the two were unable to hold on, many "Nine Yuan Sect" monks on the battlefield below were also unable to open up the battlefield. Yue Wuji, the head of the "Nine Yuan Sect", also felt a little worried. Very anxious.

After a moment, Yue Wuji's eyes became more determined. After blocking Chen Xuanxin's attack with the magic weapon in his hand, he directly threw away the opponent and moved towards Linghujie and Linghujie.

"Your opponent is me, where are you going?"

Seeing that the opponent wanted to intervene in other people's battles when he was fighting with him, Chen Xuanxin's face showed a hint of displeasure, and he controlled the flying sword magic weapon in his hand to chase after the opponent.

The flying sword magic weapon in Chen Xuanxin's hand had just caught up behind him. After Yue Wuji turned around, he did not choose to use his magical power to resist the danger at hand. Instead, he took out a golden talisman and cast it into a sharp sword and threw it towards Chen Xuanxin in mid-air.

"This is a fourth-level talisman!"

The golden talisman that Yue Wuji took out was a fourth-level low-grade spiritual talisman given to him by Wu Jiuyuan, the supreme elder of the "Jiuyuan Sect" to use as a trump card. Its power exceeded that of an extraordinary magic weapon of the same level.

Just as he appeared, the powerful aura emanating from the golden talisman had already attracted the attention of many monks around him, and they all showed a hint of surprise.

In this golden elixir-level battlefield, spiritual objects above level four are very rare. Although Chen Xuanxin was prepared, he did not expect that the other party would suddenly bring out such a powerful level four spiritual talisman.

At this critical moment, Chen Xuanxin could only push his natal flying sword to block in front of him, and instantly collided with the spiritual talisman released by the opponent.

The power of this attack was so huge that just the aftermath of it caused the nearest monks to retreat several feet away.

Although Chen Xuanxin, who was in the center of the battlefield, forcibly received the opponent's blow, his flying sword was also knocked away, causing several huge cracks.

The magic weapon was seriously damaged, and Chen Xuanxin felt uncomfortable. He was knocked away on the spot and spit out several mouthfuls of blood. It was obvious that he was seriously injured by the blow just now.

However, even though Yue Wuji launched this sudden attack, he could not completely dodge the sword that Chen Xuanxin had chased behind him. Three fingers on his right hand were cut off by the opponent's sword.

With his hands bleeding, he quickly swallowed a healing pill, which made his face look a little better.

Seeing Chen Xuanxin not far away who had been severely injured by his blow, he had just swallowed the elixir to heal his wounds. He didn't bother to refine the elixir in his body, so he immediately controlled the magic weapon in his hand to kill Chen Xuanxin.

Seeing that the opponent was approaching again, Chen Xuanxin could only grit his teeth and control the flying sword again to fight with him.

It's just that Chen Xuanxin, who was originally not weaker than his opponent, was obviously greatly affected after being hit hard by the opponent's blow, and was forced to retreat continuously by Yue Wuji.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Chen Xuanxin could only send a message to Song Qingming on the side to ask for help.

Seeing this, Song Qingming immediately and decisively gave up suppressing his opponent, went to help Chen Xuanxin stop Yue Wuji, and replaced his original opponent Linghujie with him.

After Song Qingming and Chen Xuanxin switched opponents, they barely managed to maintain the balance of the battlefield. They fought until it was getting dark, and then they withdrew their troops.

This battle was much more intense than the first two days, and both sides suffered heavy losses.

On the "Xiaoyao Sect" side, more than 30 foundation-building and more than 200 Qi-refining cultivators were lost.

As for the Jindan cultivators, Shen Tongzhou, Jin Ziyuan, Yun Nishang, and Song Qingyu were all injured in the battle, but the impact on them is not that great at present.

The one who was seriously injured was Chen Xuanxin, the sect's highest cultivator on the battlefield.

After suffering a sneak attack from Yue Wuji, Chen Xuanxin's injuries were also somewhat serious. Even if he can still go to the battlefield after healing, he can only barely exert about half of his strength in his prime.

On the other side, the "Jiuyuan Sect", because it was the active attacking party, although it had an advantage in numbers, it actually lost more low-level cultivators than the "Xiaoyao Sect".

Most of the Jindan cultivators of the Jiuyuan Sect, such as Yue Wuji and Linghu Jie, were also injured.

The most seriously injured one was the Jindan cultivator named Lu, whose life treasure was almost destroyed on the spot by the "Golden Wind". In the end, he had to withdraw from the battlefield in advance.

Yue Wuji, who returned to the base, just refined the healing elixir in his body and immediately came out of retreat to the tent where everyone was discussing matters.

"How is Junior Brother Lu's injury?"

Seeing that everyone present was present except for one person, Yue Wuji quickly asked Wang Ziheng, who was standing next to him.

Seeing this, Wang Ziheng, who looked a little unhappy, could only bow and answer: "Junior Brother Lu's life treasure was broken, and his injuries were a bit serious and he was still recuperating in seclusion.

But don't worry, Master, although Junior Brother Lu was seriously injured, his life was not in danger. He would recover slowly if he spent more time recuperating.

It's just that Junior Brother Lu may not be able to participate in the battle tomorrow!"

"Junior Brother Lu has just formed a pill not long ago. If it weren't for the faction's current shortage of manpower, I wouldn't want to easily transfer him to the front line.

It's just that he was injured so seriously this time, and his future path will be affected. I can only find a way to compensate him in the future.

It's a pity that I didn't use the talisman given by Uncle Wu to kill Chen Xuanxin today, otherwise we would definitely be able to defeat Xiaoyao Sect and take back Nanyuefang in this battle today."

After Yue Wuji finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh slightly.

Linghu Jie, who still had a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth, took the initiative to ask: "Master, now that Junior Brother Lu is injured, we are no longer at an advantage on the battlefield.

Should we continue to attack the market tomorrow, or wait for the reinforcements to arrive?"

Hearing Linghu Jie's question, Yue Wuji quickly replied: "Humph! We have no advantage, and the other side will not have an easy time in the next few days.

Although Chen Xuanxin saved his life today, his injuries were not much lighter than Junior Brother Lu. I am afraid that he will be with Junior Brother Lu. It is also impossible to attack at will.

No matter what, we will continue to attack the city tomorrow. This is our last chance to take back the market.

Xiaoyao Sect has developed so fast in recent years, and its strength is no longer what it used to be. If they wait for them to gain a foothold in Nanyuefang, I am afraid that our Jiuyuan Sect will no longer have a place to settle down in the future. "

More than a hundred years ago, when the "Iron Immortal Fort" was fought, the strength of the "Jiuyuan Sect" and the "Xiaoyao Sect" was not much different, and the two sides barely fought a draw in that battle.

In the end, the "Jiuyuan Sect" successfully withdrew some of the Ma family cultivators to the Yue Kingdom.

I didn't expect that after only a hundred years, not only did Bai Yuxian successfully break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, but the strength of Song Qingming, Chen Xuanxin and other late Jindan cultivators was also much stronger than the "Xiaoyao Sect" back then.

The "Jiuyuan Sect" on the battlefield can still rely on the large number of low-level cultivators to gain some advantages. If they cannot fight quickly, when the "Xiaoyao Sect" has reinforcements, they will have no chance to win this battle.

Just as Yue Wuji thought, the people on the "Xiaoyao Sect" side suffered too many casualties among the low-level cultivators, which was indeed a bit difficult.

Knowing that they had fallen into a disadvantage, the people of the "Xiaoyao Sect" could only rush to install the several high-level "Flying Cloud Crossbows" they brought on the city wall of the market in the night, preparing for the battle on the second day.

In addition to Chen Xuanxin, who was seriously injured, Song Qingyu also suffered some minor injuries in the daytime battle.

Although he knew that it would not affect her much, Song Qingming still had a little more worry in his heart, and gave her two more third-level defensive talismans he drew for self-defense.

On such a battlefield where many Jindan cultivators were fighting, Song Qingming could not spare too much energy to take care of others, so he could only patiently give Song Qingyu a few more words.

The next morning, with the sound of the horn that shook the battlefield, the two sides started fighting again on the battlefield.

This time, like the battles of the previous few days, although the two sides fought fiercely, there was still no result, but hundreds of monks' bodies were added to the battlefield.

Although they paid a considerable price, the people of "Xiaoyao Sect" still relied on their own strength to hold on and did not let the enemy break through the "Nanyuefang" they were guarding.

In this way, the battle lasted for five or six days, and both sides lost a lot of monks, and even Jindan monks began to fall on the battlefield.

In the end, the "Jiuyuan Sect", which suffered a lot of losses on the battlefield, was the first to be unable to hold on, and took the initiative to withdraw its troops to the north and retreat to the interior of Yue to rest.

After learning that the enemy had evacuated, the "Xiaoyao Sect" members who had managed to hold on for so long breathed a sigh of relief. They hurriedly seized the time to reinforce the market formation and prepare for battle, while transporting supplies and reinforcements to the front line.

In the previous battles that lasted for more than ten days, the "Xiaoyao Sect" not only lost thousands of low-level cultivators, but even Jin Ziyuan, the sect's golden elixir elder, unfortunately fell on the battlefield.

Although the "Jiuyuan Sect" suffered greater losses than the Xiaoyao Sect, it chose to retreat on its own initiative, but its sect's strength was not severely damaged.

If nothing unexpected happens, there will probably be a more brutal battle next.

Just as everyone was preparing for battle and ready to respond to the counterattack of the "Jiuyuan Sect" cultivators at any time, Bai Yuxian, who had not been seen for a long time, suddenly appeared in the "Nanyue Square" and brought everyone a somewhat unexpected news.

When the "Jiuyuan Sect" and the "Xiaoyao Sect" were fighting, the northern demons took advantage of the "Jiuyuan Sect"'s empty northern defense forces and began to gather south on a large scale, and had already broken through several small markets in the north of Yue State.

Now most of the forces of the "Jiuyuan Sect" have been mobilized to the north to deal with the northern demons that are heading south.

Hearing this good news, some "Xiaoyao Sect" monks began to clamor to avenge Jin Ziyuan and others who fell on the battlefield, and continue to march northward into the heartland of Yue State while the "Jiuyuan Sect" is empty.

But after hearing this, Bai Yuxian immediately shook his head and stopped everyone.

"I know what everyone is thinking, but the invasion of the northern demons this time is not just an invasion of Yue. I have received news that Jinyu Mountain has begun to gather a large army to move south, and many demon beasts have appeared outside Baiyun Valley.

If the Jinyu Mountain demons move south on a large scale, it will definitely not be enough for Feng Ping and a few people to be stationed in the north of the sect. I am afraid we will have to withdraw forces to help at any time.

And the Wanling Sect has also intervened to mediate this matter. I estimate that it will not take long for Senior Brother Li to reach an agreement with Jiuyuan Sect. At this time, it is not appropriate for us to go deep into the territory of Yue."

The fight between "Xiaoyao Sect" and "Jiuyuan Sect" is a conflict between the human race after all.

When encountering a common enemy, the northern demons, no matter how big the grudges between the two sides are, they should consider temporarily putting aside the common enemy, otherwise the fight between the two sects will benefit the demons, which will not be worth the loss.

Even if the hostile sect invades the territory, it will only be a fight between cultivators, and generally will not involve the mortals under its rule.

Once the demons took advantage of the situation, the land they passed through would be devoid of people and animals, and the loss would be too great for any sect to bear.

Hearing that the sect was considering negotiating a ceasefire with the "Jiuyuan Sect", everyone was unhappy, but they did not dare to say more and nodded in agreement.

What happened later was exactly as Bai Yuxian said.

Half a month later, the "Jiuyuan Sect", which had already felt the pressure from the northern demons, chose to take the initiative to make peace with the "Xiaoyao Sect", gave up the idea of ​​going south to retake the "Nanyuefang", and concentrated its main forces back to the north of Yue to deal with the demons going south.

Compared with the "Nanyuefang" in the south, the territories in the north of Yue that had just been recaptured from the demons were much larger, and naturally more important to the "Jiuyuan Sect", and they would not easily return them to the demons.

The "Xiaoyao Sect" also stopped when they saw the good, and agreed to temporarily cease the war and make peace with the other party and not continue to invade other parts of Yue in the north after the "Wanling Sect" took the initiative to mediate.

The territory thousands of miles southeast of "Nanyuefang" has since been under the control of "Xiaoyao Sect", which means that Weiguo has one more county of territory.

In addition, the spiritual stone veins and other mineral spiritual vein resources around "Nanyuefang" have all fallen into the hands of "Xiaoyao Sect".

At the request of "Jiuyuan Sect", those immortal cultivation families and cultivators who were originally attached to it and were unwilling to join "Xiaoyao Sect" all moved away from "Nanyuefang".

"Xiaoyao Sect" did not object to this. After all, most of these people have followed "Jiuyuan Sect" for many years, and forcing them to stay may still be a hidden danger to the sect.

It is better to let them leave by themselves, and then migrate cultivators and mortals from the interior of Weiguo to slowly manage "Nanyuefang".

As long as a few decades pass, all the cultivators in the entire "Nanyuefang" will become people from Weiguo, and this place will have nothing to do with "Jiuyuan Sect".

After the invasion of the demons in Yue, the demons of "Jinyu Mountain" in the north of Wei also began to stir after hearing the news.

Soon, at the signal of "Molong Demon King", "Jinyu Mountain" assembled thousands of demon beasts to go south, trying to retake the territory they had lost before.

Not only the "Baiyun Valley" at the forefront, but also many neighboring market towns and the "White Lion Market" near the north of the Song family also appeared in the demon beast army and began to besiege the market town.

For a time, the entire northern Wei Kingdom began to rekindle the flames of war, and countless cultivators and demon beasts fought for territory.

After the two sects signed a ceasefire agreement, Song Qingming and others immediately returned to Wei, and then rushed directly to the "Baiyun Valley" in the north to participate in the battle against the "Jinyu Mountain" demons going south.

The last time the sect went north to attack the demon tribe, "Golden Feather Mountain" lost most of its demon beasts and suffered heavy damage. It has only been 20 years, and the strength of the northern demon tribe has not fully recovered.

Facing the "Xiaoyao Sect" who are going all out, "Golden Feather Mountain" is still clearly at a disadvantage in terms of strength, whether it is the Golden Core Demon King or the lower-level demon beasts below.

As soon as he saw Song Qingming and others appear on the battlefield one by one, the White Dragon Demon King who was responsible for besieging "White Cloud Valley" immediately chose to retreat and led the demon army back to "Golden Feather Mountain".

The battle of "White Cloud Valley" seemed a bit anticlimactic because of the decisive retreat of the demons. The two sides seemed to be very active, but there was almost no major conflict and the battle ended quickly.

The result of "White Lion Square" on the Song family side was the same. Under the guard of the Song family monks led by Huang Siyuan, after fighting with the invading "Giant Elephant Demon King" army, the demons quickly chose to retreat on their own initiative.

Although both sides suffered some damage, there were no major casualties.

The northern part of Weiguo, which had been turbulent, also gradually calmed down after the demons of "Golden Feather Mountain" retreated across the board.

On the other hand, the battle of the "Jiuyuan Sect" of Yue State was much more intense. The "Jiuyuan Sect", which was not well prepared, was defeated by the demon army and lost a large number of cultivators and mortals.

In the end, with the help of several small countries around and the help of the "Wanling Sect", they regained some of the territory occupied by the demons at a certain price and stabilized the northern front.

After two major battles with the "Xiaoyao Sect" and the northern demons, the "Jiuyuan Sect" of Yue State, which lost thousands of cultivators and several Jindan elders, was also seriously injured.

After that, the "Jiuyuan Sect" completely lost the strength to challenge the "Xiaoyao Sect" and could only defend its existing territory and barely maintain the majesty of a Yuanying sect.

Although the "Xiaoyao Sect" suffered less losses in the battle of "Nanyuefang", it also lost more than a thousand foundation-building and Qi-refining cultivators. Even Jin Ziyuan, a sect elder in the middle Jindan period, fell on the battlefield.

Although the "Xiaoyao Sect" has developed rapidly in recent years, the strength of the sect has expanded rapidly after the Northern Expedition, and the number of cultivators in the sect has increased by 20% to 30% compared with a hundred years ago.

However, the loss of so many cultivators at once also made the two Yuanying ancestors of the sect, as well as the Jindan elders such as Li Wutong, feel distressed.

In addition, many cultivators in the "Xiaoyao Sect" were seriously injured on the battlefield, including Chen Xuanxin, who is currently the most promising to reach the Yuanying realm.

Chen Xuanxin, whose life treasure was injured by the opponent's sneak attack, is estimated to need at least 10 to 20 years of retreat before he can recover. This will indeed have a significant impact on him who should have been preparing to retreat to condense the Yuanying.

Among the other Jindan cultivators who participated in the battle, Shen Tongzhou's injuries were not light.

However, compared with Chen Xuanxin, who was more seriously injured, Shen Tongzhou's injuries were relatively better. He can recover in five or six years at most, and the impact on his future path is not that great.

The remaining injured Song Qingyu and his companions were not seriously injured. As long as they found a suitable healing spiritual object, they would be able to recover in one or two years.

Since the war began, Song Qingming has been worried about Song Qingyu's safety. Fortunately, although Song Qingyu was accidentally injured in the battle, he survived to the end.

Although this battle was very costly, it also demonstrated the majesty of the entire "Xiaoyao Sect", allowing other surrounding sects to witness the powerful strength of the "Xiaoyao Sect", and the entire Weiguo cultivators became famous because of it.

After this, many of the nearby small countries took the initiative to attach themselves to the "Xiaoyao Sect" of Weiguo, which increased the influence of the sect in the cultivation world of the Floating Cloud Mountains. (End of this chapter)
