Immortal Palace Longevity
Chapter 198: The Severe Affliction of Life and Death (two chapters in one)
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes turned to Xie Junjie.
Some people lamented the "boldness" of his idea, but he was still too young and didn't care about reputation at all.
Then everyone focused their attention on Yan Hongyu, wanting to see what she was thinking.
Yan Hongyu heard the words but did not speak immediately, her face showed no color, and her thoughts were unpredictable.
"Senior Sister Yan, I think it is very inappropriate to kill all the mortals in Tianyong City indiscriminately."
"After all, we are not a demonic sect. If we do this, it may affect the sect's reputation if word spreads!"
"In my junior sister's opinion, I can control the mortal government, and with the power of the government, I can select all the mortals who have nothing to do with the Huang family."
A female monk with an ordinary appearance, plain and elegant clothes, and a slightly round face. She is also in the early stage of foundation building. She is usually taciturn and has a very low sense of presence.
But after hearing Xie Junjie's words, he seemed to be moved by compassion, so he spoke for innocent mortals.
After she finished speaking, she glared at Xie Junjie with a pair of black and white eyes, obviously disgusting.
"Yes, I also feel that it is very inappropriate to burn the city directly."
"This is a special period. If a hostile sect gets to know this news, it is likely to be widely publicized in Chu State, and the sect will be put into a disadvantageous situation by making accusations from the moral high ground."
"If this really causes damage to the sect's reputation, I'm afraid we will be responsible for it."
Another person expressed his opinion and stood up.
Then the eight foundation-building monks here started a heated discussion, and everyone had different opinions.
Liu Yu still remained silent, and he was slightly partial to Xie Junjie on this issue.
There is no other reason. Saving time is only one aspect. Importantly, he might also be able to take the opportunity to harvest a batch of fuel.
But according to his observation, Yan Hongyu seemed a little disgusted and directly killed all mortals, so Liu Yu had to change some methods.
He couldn't arouse the woman's resentment. After all, he decided to maintain a good relationship with the Yan family, and Yan Hongyu's opinion was still very important.
The discussion between the eight people lasted for about half a quarter of an hour. Everyone had their own opinions, and no one could convince anyone.
But generally speaking, the majority are those who do not kill innocent mortals.
"enough."
Yan Hongyu suddenly spoke up, interrupting everyone's discussion.
"I think it's better to distinguish the non-blood mortals with other surnames, and then seal the Huang family's mortals in the city. Although it will take a little longer, it will not leave any obvious clues to others."
"Senior Brother Li, what do you think?"
Seeing that those who disapproved of indiscriminate killing accounted for the majority, Yan Hongyu terminated the discussion and made the final decision.
However, she still asked Li BuTong. After all, he was also one of the captains and was much stronger than herself.
"Li has no objection, just do as Junior Sister Yan says."
Li BuTong rarely expresses opinions, but when he saw everyone's eyes turned over, he still spoke.
Seeing that the two captains have reached an agreement, the matter has basically become a conclusion.
Xie Junjie's face visibly fell, and he closed his mouth and stopped talking.
He may have felt that he had lost face, so he just said that and walked away, returning directly to the cabin. It seemed that he was not in a good mood.
Those who wanted to massacre the city directly had no choice but to cease their activities.
Including Liu Yu, they had no choice but to suppress this idea for the time being.
Even the idea of using mortals to cultivate the demonic fire was mostly extinguished. From this incident, it can be seen that everyone is disgusted with killing mortals indiscriminately.
It is taboo to use a large number of mortals to practice magic skills. Qingyang Demonic Fire is an out-and-out "devil fire" and can easily be misunderstood. This time, if you use the mission to practice demonic fire, everyone will talk about it. Probably won't say anything.
But he must be extremely disgusted in his heart, and he will consciously alienate himself. If he returns to the sect and spreads the word, it will damage his reputation.
If his reputation becomes bad, it will be extremely detrimental to his future development. After all, Liu Yu still plans to practice in the sect, and currently has no thoughts of leaving Yuanyang Sect.
"Since all the junior brothers and sisters have no objections, then let's just deal with it like this!"
"Anyway, it's only a delay of ten days and a half. It's over with a snap of the fingers."
After a while, no one had any different opinions. Yan Hongyu nodded and said with a smile.
Her lips moved slightly when she finished speaking, but no sound came out. It was obviously a message from her spiritual consciousness, informing someone.
After a while, the city guard commander Yue Liang ran over, bent down and saluted, and said respectfully:
"I don't know what the uncle has to do when he calls his disciples here?"
"As long as it is something ordered by my uncle, the disciple will not hesitate to go up the mountain of swords and the sea of fire. I will definitely try my best to complete it!"
Yue Liang flattered him stiffly, completely lacking the majestic image he had in front of ordinary city guards and casual cultivators.
There was no way, even though he had some background, any foundation-building monk could kill him, let alone the one in front of him.
"Do you understand the orders of the Presbyterian Council?"
Yan Hongyu said lightly.
"Disciple understands."
Yue Liang nodded hesitantly, wondering what the uncle's intention was when he asked.
"Although the Presbyterian Church requires us to exterminate the entire Huang family, God has good intentions, and those mortals with foreign surnames who have nothing to do with the Huang family are innocent."
"There are two kinds of mortals in Tianyong City, those who should be killed and those who should not be killed. I order you to lead the city guards to close the city gates and screen out the mortals who have no relationship with the Huang family."
"You can control the government affairs of this city, but you only have half a month. Try to move out innocent people during this half month."
"Do you understand?"
Yan Hongyu's face was calm, and she gave the order condescendingly, without any intention of "respecting the wise and humble".
"Master Yan is kind, and I understand. I will do as Master Uncle tells me!"
Yue Liang received the order respectfully.
"Take these blood spirit beads. This thing has been specially refined and dripped with the blood of the direct lineage of the Huang family. As long as it senses the people of the Huang family within three feet, it will react. It can be used as a means of identification."
"Since you have no questions, go down and do your work."
Yan Hongyu touched the storage bag and took out five or six longan-sized, deep red and crystal round beads.
As soon as he finished speaking, the deep red round bead flew out from his palm and slowly floated in front of Yue Liang.
"I will follow the order of Uncle Yan, and I will take my leave!"
Yue Liang bowed his hands to accept the order, grabbed the blood spirit beads in front of him, slowly retreated a distance, and then turned to walk towards the city guards.
When he came to the city guards on the deck, he changed his nodding and bowing attitude, and his face was straightened. He took the posture of his commander and began to give a "dignified" lecture.
Liu Yu noticed this scene of the blood spirit bead and heard the conversation between Yan Hongyu and Yue Liang.
He was extremely surprised. He didn't expect Yan Hongyu to have prepared such a magic weapon.
Is this a coincidence? Or foresight?
Liu Yu's heart is more inclined to the latter. Yan Hongyu doesn't seem to be a short-sighted person. He should have expected the current situation long ago, so he made corresponding preparations.
Then he noticed the change in Yue Liang's attitude, and the corners of his mouth moved a little bit, but Liu Yu soon stopped laughing.
Isn't it the same when facing a Jindan cultivator, being arrogant at first and respectful later?
Yue Liang's lecture didn't last long. After having a good time, he took the sixty-four city guards and left the Guiyuan Boat, each driving a magic weapon to fly towards Tianyong City below.
More than sixty escape lights were not conspicuous in the broad daylight, only a faint spiritual light that was barely detectable, just like a meteor in the daytime.
But what it brought was not the opportunity to make a wish, but ominousness and death.
After the city guards left, the Guiyuan Boat rumbled and flew towards a high mountain not far away, finding a relatively flat mountaintop and slowly landing.
This mountain is dozens of feet higher than Tianyong City, and the cliffs are extremely steep. It is almost impossible to climb in the eyes of ordinary mortals, but it is nothing to cultivators.
Standing on the top of this mountain, with the eyesight of cultivators, you can just overlook Tianyong City.
In fact, the next thing does not require Liu Yu and other foundation-building monks to intervene too much.
In front of the city guards who have attack and defense magic weapons, the lowest level of cultivation is the seventh level of Qi Refining, and they cooperate tacitly. Although 200,000 mortals are many, it is just a matter of quantity. It does not take much time to deal with them.
The main time-consuming part is the process of screening out the mortals who have no blood relationship with the Huang family.
But it does not require foolproofness. As long as the people of the Huang family are not let go, as long as most of the remaining mortals are screened out, it is not a big problem to kill a small part by mistake.
I believe Yue Liang understands that the patience of the uncles is limited. If he exceeds this time, he will not have a good result.
This matter is actually not difficult to do. Just block the four city gates, control the city lord of Tianyong City, and use some means to make him obedient.
Use absolute strength to force the sound system of Tianyong City to use for yourself, so that things will be much simpler.
They still had to stay in Tianyong City for half a month. Several foundation-building cultivators had no interest in enjoying the scenery. They entered the cabin one after another and found a room to do their own things, such as counting the harvest.
The elder of the Huang family's Dantang died in Xie Junjie's hands, so the Huang family's alchemy inheritance might also fall into his hands.
Liu Yu wanted to find Xie Junjie to exchange the alchemy inheritance at this time, but considering what happened just now, his mood might be very bad. It would be inappropriate to do things at this time, and it might have a counterproductive effect.
He changed his mind and decided to wait for a while and discuss it with Xie Junjie on the return trip.
Liu Yu exchanged a few polite words with the remaining fellow disciples on the deck, then said hello and entered the cabin, found the room he came from and lived in it.
After closing the door, Liu Yu took out a set of "Xuanling Formation" and arranged it in the room, covering the entire room.
Xuanling Formation, a second-level low-grade defensive formation, can withstand one or two attacks from cultivators below the late stage of foundation building. It can also withstand a full-strength attack from a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building, giving the formation master precious reaction time.
This formation was bought by Liu Yu in Wangyue City at a cost of 1,400 spirit stones after the last mission in the Spiritual Medicine Garden. The price is not expensive and even a bit cheap.
Because it has a big disadvantage, that is, it can only absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit stone to circulate, and cannot absorb the spiritual energy from the spirit vein or nature to replenish consumption.
Although this formation has a large defect, it is not a problem for a cultivator like Liu Yu who is not short of money, so he decisively bought it.
Liu Yu sat cross-legged on the wooden bed, ready to check the harvest of this trip.
He gently closed his eyes, and his mind touched the green light spot in the Niwan Palace. A feeling of dizziness came, and the embryonic form of the soul had disappeared in the flesh.
It seemed like a moment had passed, and it seemed like a long time had passed. The red light ball representing Liu Yu's soul appeared in the Immortal Mansion world and regained consciousness.
Liu Yu's mind moved and he quickly floated to the black spiritual field. Eleven jade boxes of different sizes were quietly lying next to the spiritual field. They were the Soul-Resting Grass and ten spiritual herbs in the Foundation Establishment Period.
With excitement, he opened one of the jade boxes and found a strange-looking, pitch-black spiritual herb.
This spiritual herb was three inches in size and exuded a fragrance like orchids. When Liu Yu smelled it, he felt that the fatigue of his soul entering and leaving the Immortal Mansion was much relieved.
It was the Soul-Resting Grass!
He did not hesitate, took the Soul-Resting Grass in the jade box, dug a small pit in the black spiritual field with the power of his soul, and carefully planted the Soul-Resting Grass.
He also took out two medium-grade spiritual stones and placed them on top to replenish the spiritual power consumption, and for the first time ever, he took a ladle from the mottled ancient well and poured it on top, which shows how much he valued it.
You should know that other spiritual herbs in the past did not have this treatment, because as long as they were planted in the black spiritual field, they would grow quickly even without watering, so Liu Yu naturally saved trouble.
But the importance of the soul-soothing grass is different. It can accelerate the practice of the magical method of storing the spirit. After the spiritual consciousness is improved, various secret techniques will be greatly strengthened. At that time, his own strength will be greatly improved, shortening the gap with the top cultivators in the foundation-building period.
Thinking about the long-term, the improvement of the spiritual consciousness and the soul can also slightly affect the probability of condensing the golden elixir, so the importance of things that can improve the soul is self-evident.
The soul-soothing grass is one of the biggest gains of this trip. It is a rare opportunity and is as important as the inheritance of alchemy.
After planting ten spiritual herbs in the foundation-building period in the black spiritual field, Liu Yu moved his mind and left the fairy world.
The current environment is not very safe. He is not at ease with the soul leaving the body for a long time. It is not too late to count the other gains when he returns to Wangyue City.
It's not to guard against fellow disciples, but Liu Yu doesn't trust anyone and will never turn his back to other cultivators, giving them the opportunity to hurt him.
Only the surging mana of Dantian and the powerful magic weapon in his hand can bring a little warmth.
Liu Yu took out Qingyang Gong, the magic method of storing spirits, and the hidden spirit technique to start comprehending, and occasionally he would read the experience of spiritual herbs.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. The night after half a month was the sixteenth night when Liu Yu and his party came to Tianyong City to perform the mission.
Suddenly, Liu Yu, who was comprehending Qingyang Gong, felt that the environment seemed to have changed a little, specifically, the air became hot and dry.
"Could it be...?"
It was about time. Thinking of this, Liu Yu opened the Xuanling formation, walked out of the door and walked towards the deck.
There were already four or five people on the deck at this time, Yan Hongyu and Li Bu Tong were among them.
Liu Yu came to the front of the deck. Before he had time to greet his fellow disciples, he was attracted by the huge movement and looked down in the direction of Tianyong City.
What caught his eyes was a sky-high fire. The raging fire had spread to the entire Tianyong City and was burning fiercely.
The fire illuminated the surroundings of the city as bright as day, like the only torch in the dark night, but it did not bring hope.
In every minute and every second of the fierce burning, lives are passing away.
As the buildings in the city collapsed, some sparks were blown into the sky, floating far away before extinguishing, as beautiful as fireflies, and like fragile life releasing the last light and heat.
I don’t know when it started, but a smell began to permeate the air.
The smell was like the aroma of roasted whole lamb at first, which made people's appetite increase and their mouths water. After a while, a faint smell of burning came, just like the smell of overcooked barbecue. Finally, there was no smell at all, as if the barbecue had been completely burned into charcoal.
With the eyesight of a foundation-building cultivator, standing at this angle, he could barely see the situation in the city.
There was a group of black shadows with red flames burning all over their bodies. They wailed, shook, struggled, and slowly fell down. Finally, they lay on the ground and let the flames devour them, and they never moved again.
There were many black shadows like this. When the first one fell to the ground, it was like a chemical reaction. The number of black shadows that fell began to increase gradually, and as time went on, more and more.
Liu Yu was wearing a wide black robe, and the sky-high flames were reflected in his dark pupils. This was the scene he saw.
