Immortal Refiner

Chapter 672: Resisting a Strong Enemy

Outside the gate of Lingyun Sect, a mighty group of spirit boats came from the sky.

Among them, the auras of several powerful men soared into the sky, disrupting the clouds in the entire sky.

Coming!

Everyone in the entire Lingyun Sect felt a slight shiver in their hearts, knowing that the violent wave they had been waiting for for so many days was finally coming.

"Ouch!"

In a corner of the mountain gate, Fantong, who had been sleeping soundly like mud, slowly woke up. There was a fierce light in his tiger eyes, and he looked at the sky outside the mountain gate with an unkind expression.

On the spiritual peak where Master Fu Xuan was, pieces of simple talismans formed a circle and flew out quickly.

On Bingyun Peak, a blue ice lotus bloomed, and Shen Ningbing rose into the sky with an ice lotus on her feet.

Purple energy rises from the Ziyun Peak where the ancestor of Ziqing is located.

An extremely solid Taotie from Tunyun Peak walked across the sky, and Wu Chong took his position as quickly as possible to guard an formation in the sect's formation.

Even Su Xin left the cave at this time and was fully prepared to fight.

All the supreme elders of Lingyun Sect were fully prepared at this moment. Even if a monk at the Nascent Soul stage came today, they planned to fight with all their strength.

At each of the five formation points of the Tianyuan Spirit Killing Formation, five Supreme Elders at the pill-forming stage were positioned. In an instant, the fourth-level formation was fully activated.

boom!

The rich spiritual light of the formation rippled out, and the entire world was sealed, and even the spiritual energy that was escaping in the air became stagnant.

At this time, outside the mountain gate, on the spirit boat of Xiaoyao Gate.

"Hiss, this formation is actually a fourth-level formation?"

"How is it possible? This Lingyun Sect has only been founded a few years ago. How can it have such a foundation?!"

"It is indeed a genuine fourth-order formation. This formation is integrated with the surrounding heaven and earth. It is definitely a posture unique to the fourth-order formation."

The few remaining Jiedan practitioners in Xiaoyao Sect were all stunned at this moment. They did not expect to encounter a fourth-order formation today. This was a situation beyond their expectations.

Master Chang Jue's expression suddenly turned gloomy. This was a dereliction of duty on his part. Before, he only focused on inquiring about the truth of Lingyun Sect's Supreme Elder in Qingling Territory, but he ignored these.

In fact, it's not his fault. Nowadays, there are few formation masters capable of setting up fourth-level formations in the entire world of immortality. Even the Great Desolate Territory may not have seen such a presence for many years.

Therefore, he and several other Supreme Elders took it for granted that the Lingyun Sect's protective formation was at best a third-level formation.

Now the variables have finally appeared!

"The fourth-level formation, is there a fourth-level formation mage in the Lingyun Sect who is at the Nascent Soul stage?" Someone whispered, looking very fearful.

But since we have already arrived, there is no reason to retreat.

On the leading spiritual boat, the silver-haired Mr. Xiaoyao slowly walked out and immediately calmed the minds of all the disciples in the sect.

"The fourth-level formation is a bit beyond my expectation." Mr. Xiaoyao muttered to himself, and then took a step forward.

The next moment, his slightly rickety back appeared directly above the mountain gate of Lingyun Sect. He actually had the magical power to shrink into an inch. In one step, he was so close to the end of the world!

"Hmph, today I am going to give it a try to see if the fourth-order formation you have put up is worthy of its name!"

As soon as the words fell, Xiaoyao Laojun's cloudy eyes suddenly became clear.

"Jade Ji Tianmu!"

Immediately afterwards, the clouds above the sky suddenly dispersed, and a pair of huge eyes suddenly appeared, staring straight at the Lingyun Sect's mountain gate, which was guarded by the formation.

This scene was extremely oppressive, and all the disciples who saw this scene couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and their hearts trembled wildly.

How horrible!

Is this the supernatural power of the Yuanying stage monks? He actually has such exaggerated visions, it looks like the blue sky has opened its eyes.

And at this moment, a tall figure stepped up into the sky. Li Qing faced the pair of huge eyes staring at the entire sect and shouted in a low voice without changing his expression:

"Array up, gather spirit curtain!"

Buzz!

Soon, the Supreme Elders who were positioned at the five formation eyes all activated the Tianyuan Spirit Killing Formation.

A clear layer of formation spiritual light emerged, protecting the entire Lingyun Sect's mountain gate in an instant.

In the sky, the rickety old man slowly closed his eyes, and the pair of huge pupils on the sky also closed.

Boom boom boom!

As the eyes closed, the space suddenly shook, and a terrifying aura surged out.

This attack was too weird, and so suddenly, the Tianyuan Spirit Killing Formation suffered a violent attack.

If the protective spiritual curtain had not been gathered in advance, the formation might not have been damaged, but those disciples with lower cultivation levels in the mountain gate would definitely be injured by the shock.

But despite this, the expressions of the five Supreme Elders in the center of the array were extremely solemn.

"Is this the Nascent Soul stage's offensive? It's a fourth-level formation. If it were to be replaced by a third-level formation, there would probably be flaws this time." Wu Chong's face was extremely ugly.

The other four people remained silent, maintaining the operation of the formation wholeheartedly, waiting for Li Qing's orders.

Xiaoyao Laojun also stopped temporarily. He looked at the tall figure in the formation, and then said coldly:

"Are you the Master Wuji who killed several Danjie elders in my sect?"

"If you voluntarily leave the formation today and kill me at your neck, and save the lives of a few of my sect's supreme elders, I will not embarrass others."

"You can also consider handing this man over. I can use the Tao as a guarantee and swear to the inner demon."

The last sentence was naturally said to Wu Chong and others. Now the five of them are in charge of the Tianyuan Zhuling Formation together. As long as they are willing, they can indeed send Li Qing out of the formation.

But obviously, no one has this idea. The other four continued to maintain the formation with a calm expression. Only Wu Chong cursed:

"You old thief must be confused. You haven't washed your mouth for hundreds of years, right? Why do you say all these nonsense?"

"Let us hand over Li Qing? I think it's more practical for you to commit suicide first!"

Wu Chong shouted with the help of the formation. The sound reached a very long distance. Not only the disciples of Lingyun Sect, but also the disciples of Xiaoyao Sect could hear it clearly.

Hearing this angry curse like a street scoundrel, let alone the elders and disciples of Lingyun Sect, even the other several supreme elders looked strange.

The Lord Xiaoyao in the sky also heard it clearly, and his face turned pale instantly.

He had lived to such an old age and cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage. He couldn't remember how long it had been since he was insulted like this.

"Hahaha, you're right, Daoist Xiaoyao, I think it's better for you to commit suicide. You're still saying such things at such an old age. I'm afraid you're going backwards as you grow older."

Li Qing also responded with a chuckle. His expression and attitude seemed very relaxed and carefree, without any sense of urgency in facing a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Good, very good!"

"After I break the formation, I will make you regret your words just now!"

The face of Lord Xiaoyao was so gloomy that it seemed like water was about to drip out. After he finished speaking, he opened his mouth, and a black mountain came out of his mouth.

Boom!

"Xiaoyao Peak, suppress!"

The mountain had just appeared, and the spiritual energy of the world that was blocked by the fourth-level formation around it was immediately loosened.

Li Qing's expression changed slightly, knowing that this seemingly ordinary black hill was definitely not that simple.

This was the life magic weapon refined by Xiaoyao Laojun. It was not a sword, spear, or halberd, nor a bell, tripod, or tower furnace. Its appearance was actually a natural mountain.

As soon as this hill appeared, it quickly expanded and seemed to suppress the world.

"Tianyuan, Zhuling!"

Li Qing roared. This time he did not choose to defend, but to counterattack!

The five Jindan elders who fell at the center of the formation all moved and used all their strength to activate this fourth-level formation.

The rich spiritual light of the formation gathered, and every node and flag of the formation began to emit powerful energy.

The next moment, a white light column like a sharp sword shot up into the sky and shot directly at the suppressed Xiaoyao Peak.

Boom!

The light between heaven and earth seemed to be annihilated, and waves were rolling up on the coast not far away. Except for the mountain gate of Lingyun Sect, the surrounding thousands of feet of land collapsed with a trend visible to the naked eye.

This attack still did not work. The Tianyuan Soul-Slaying Array showed the magic of the fourth-level array. A Yuanying-stage cultivator used his own life magic weapon, but still resisted!

Even the array has not been damaged, and even the array base is still quite solid.

Xiaoyao Laojun, whose face was gloomy again, could no longer maintain such a detached attitude.

He realized that he might not be able to do anything to Lingyun Sect today. As long as they kept shrinking in this fourth-level formation and did not come out, he seemed to have no way to deal with them.

Immediately, he shot out several condensed true essence strands in succession and continued to inject them into his life magic weapon.

The dark stone mountain trembled several times and continued to bombard the Tianyuan Soul-Slaying Array.

But it never worked. This fourth-level formation was extremely solid, and at most, a few twisted ripples appeared.

"Why don't you follow me, the ancestor, to break the formation together!" Xiaoyao Laojun roared, and called the remaining few Jindan Zhenren in the sect to attack the mountain gate of Lingyun Sect together.

Of course, these people didn't dare to get so close like their own ancestors.

Because this fourth-level formation can't just passively take a beating. Once they dare to enter the attack range, Li Qing will definitely launch a fierce attack to kill them without hesitation.

In an instant, the violent storm of attacks fell.

Except for Zhenren Changjue, the other Jindan stage cultivators used their own life magic weapons and bombarded them all.

In addition, some people used talismans, and even used many third-level forbidden-breaking talismans in succession.

If it were an ordinary third-level formation, it would have been shattered under such a frenzied attack.

But the Tianyuan Soul-Slaying Formation was still intact, and it could only be said that it was worthy of being created by Bailing Daojun.

However, the five Lingyun Sect's supreme elders who maintained the formation suddenly felt a lot more pressure at this moment. They gritted their teeth and supported themselves, not daring to relax at all.

Xiaoyao Laojun, whose face was extremely ugly, finally couldn't help it. He didn't know when two old talisman papers appeared in his hand.

Fu Xuan Zhenren below saw this scene and immediately recognized it.

"Those are the Earth Spirit Talisman and the Wind Extinguishing Talisman, two fourth-level lower-grade talismans! Be careful!"

Li Qing's heart tightened slightly. He didn't expect that the other party was so willing to take out even the fourth-level talisman.

This is a talisman that even Master Fu Xuan has not been able to draw. It is extremely valuable. The value of each fourth-level talisman can be measured in units of 10,000 spiritual stones.

A look of physical pain flashed in Xiaoyao Laojun's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by ruthless determination.

Obviously, even he didn't have much inventory of these two precious fourth-level talismans. He only had one missing when using one, and there was basically no way to replenish them.

"Don't worry, my Tianyuan Spirit Killing Formation won't be destroyed by two fourth-level talismans. If it were really that fragile, there wouldn't be any formation masters in the world who would draw the talismans."

The voice of Master Bailing sounded at the right time, which made Li Qing feel at ease.

Yes, no matter how powerful the fourth-level talisman is, it is at most equivalent to a full blow from a Yuanying stage monk.

Unless it is a forbidden-breaking talisman specifically targeting the formation, and it must be a fourth-level forbidden-breaking talisman, it would be too difficult to shake the formation of the same level.

Of course, Li Qing was not ready to just watch at this time. Since the other party dared to attack so blatantly, he would naturally have to make the other party pay some price!

As the two fourth-level talismans outside the formation were activated, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth boiled instantly, the earth trembled and cracked, and strong winds roared, just like a scene of world destruction.

In this chaotic scene, Li Qing took out an ancient wooden bow!

Nine life bow!

This was the trophy obtained by killing Wen Xia, the ancestor of the Shangqing Sect. Later, this bow fell into the hands of Wu Chong.

This wooden bow was simple and unpretentious, but Li Qing knew that it was an ancient treasure, perhaps a natal magic weapon that had been carefully nourished and refined by a Nascent Soul monk from ancient times.

Picking up the Nine Life Bow, the pure essence in Li Qing's body flowed out.

Without hesitation, he drew the bow to its full capacity. The bowstring was stretched extremely tight. A faint light began to gather on the Nine Life Bow, and finally formed an aura arrow.

Li Qing used this bow not to aim at Xiaoyao Laojun in the Nascent Soul stage, but at an elder of Xiaoyao Sect who was quite far away from the formation.

As soon as the man was locked by Li Qing, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar and felt a bone-chilling aura of death!

"not good!"

Zheng~!

As soon as Li Qing let go of his hand, the bowstring trembled, and the aura arrow that left the string seemed to have pierced the air, ignoring the distance of space, and directly shot through the chest of the real Danjie who was trying to avoid it!

Uh-huh!

A handful of bright red blood splashed out in the air, like a bright red flower blooming.

"Ah? Junior Brother Zhao Zhen!" Chang Jue's expression changed drastically, and he immediately went to rescue him, trying to delay the rapid passage of his life.

However, the next moment, Li Qing once again drew his bow and string, and used his true energy to condense an aura arrow.

Nine lives bow, the name of this bow naturally means that once it is locked, even if it has nine lives, it will not be enough to die.

Soon, Master Chang Jue also sensed the arrival of the breath of death.

"How dare you, you beast!" Xiaoyao Laojun roared angrily. How could he watch helplessly as Li Qing drew his bow and stringed his bow one after another and shot down the Supreme Elder in his sect with one arrow after another!

I saw that the spiritual light arrow had just been shot, but its trajectory was caught by Xiaoyao Laojun. He directly concentrated his spiritual power and grabbed it into the void.

Bang!

The aura arrow shot by Li Qing with the Nine Life Bow was crushed to pieces.

At this point, both parties temporarily stopped.

Upon seeing this, Li Qing knew that he had obtained the opportunity to negotiate. He said coldly:

"Fellow Taoist of Xiaoyao Sect, you should go back and forth wherever you please. We, Lingyun Sect, do not welcome you."

"Of course, if you still want to fight with me, Lingyun Sect, then I have to remind you that as long as there is any gap in my sect's formation, hundreds of spiritual messages will be sent to the wilderness."

"I am not talented. In my early years, I also spent time in the Wilderness Territory, and I also raised a group of my own troops there."

"Although there are not many people, it is enough to spread the news that you are waiting in the Qingling Region to the several demonic sects in the Great Wilderness Region."

"I think those demonic sects would be very interested in the news about Xiaoyao Sect!"

Hearing this, Mr. Xiaoyao finally had to stop and looked at Li Qing with cold eyes.

"Are you threatening me?"

In response, Li Qing just smiled and shook his head:

"It's not a threat, I'm just telling fellow Taoists what will happen."

Xiaoyao Laojun narrowed his turbid eyes, and then said coldly: "If you attract the Demon Sect to this area, the fate of the Lingyun Sect will not be any better!"

Regarding this, Li Qing could not deny it and said: "But I don't mind using your Xiaoyao Sect as a backstop when Lingyun Sect is destroyed."

These words really hit Mr. Xiaoyao's weakness. He had to admit that Li Qing's words were indeed very threatening.

But it is somewhat impossible to leave the Qingling Territory in such a dejected manner.

Ancestor Xiaoyao took a deep look at Li Qing, and then said: "In the years to come, it is best for you to stay huddled in this formation and not come out!"

"This domain will be accepted by my Xiaoyao Sect. In the future, as long as one of your Lingyun Sect's disciples dares to come out, I will kill one!"

After saying that, Ancestor Xiaoyao took back his natal magic weapon with a wave of his hand, and then led the rest of Xiaoyao Sect's troops towards the south.

Obviously, they are planning to settle in the Qingling Domain. For them, there are still two high-level spiritual veins in the Qingling Domain for them to settle down.

As for the Lingyun Sect, after thinking it over again and again, Patriarch Xiaoyao finally decided to let it go.

He had no way to break through this fourth-level formation in the short term. At most, he could make a few gaps. However, this would likely attract the attention of the Demon Sect in the Great Wilderness Territory, and his Xiaoyao Sect would not be able to live in the Qingling Territory for a long time.

After watching the Xiaoyao Sect's men disappear into the horizon, everyone in the Lingyun Sect breathed a sigh of relief.

In any case, at least the disaster in front of them was over.

The five supreme elders who maintained the Tianyuan Soul-Slaying Formation all showed a lingering fear.

"Finally gone! My old bones are about to be crushed." Patriarch Ziqing breathed a sigh of relief.

But Wu Chong and the others didn't think so. They all heard the cruel words left by Patriarch Xiaoyao at the end, and knew that the other party planned to stay in the Qingling Territory.

The days in the future will probably not be so easy.

Once they leave the sect, they will be targeted by a Yuanying stage cultivator, and there will be no fourth-level formation to protect them.

Everyone was in a low mood.

Li Qing chuckled and said, "Anyway, we have defeated the enemy this time. We don't have to worry about these things in the short term. You can have a good rest."

"You don't have to worry about the next problem."

Hearing Li Qing's words, they all looked at Li Qing's tall figure in front of them with complicated eyes.

They all knew that Li Qing should be planning to attack the Yuanying stage next.

The troubles of the Yuanying stage can only be solved by Yuanying stage cultivators.

Thinking of this, everyone's mood was inevitably a little lower.

The burden of the sect's survival was on Li Qing, but they were unable to share even a little bit of it.
