Immortal Palace Longevity

When they heard that it was just a small market, Yan Kai, Cui Liang, Meng Wenxing and others all nodded slightly to express their understanding.

They had different expressions on their faces, but they were secretly relieved.

For a Taoist with multiple eyes in the middle stage of foundation building, even if he doesn't surrender and chooses to fight to the end, he won't be able to make much waves.

In this case, the intensity of the battle would not be too high, and they would be much more relaxed. At least they would not have to worry about their lives being in danger from the beginning.

The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy means you can fight a hundred battles without danger.

Although Liu Yu was not familiar with the art of war, he still knew this. After he understood his mission, it didn't take long for him to make up his mind and formulate a preliminary strategy.

According to the map given by the elder, this place is less than thirty miles away from Mang Mountain. With Gui Yuanzhou's escape speed, it can be reached in just over a quarter of an hour.

Give the operation token to Jiang Qiushui and let him control the flying boat.

Liu Yu put his hands behind his hands and looked into the distance, looking at the mountains below, and fell into deep thought.

…

Mang Mountain, the second-level lower level Lingshan Mountain, is about 280 feet high.

The scenery has no special features and cannot be said to be beautiful, but it is still ordinary and can attract the discernment of the monks.

In the eyes of secular people, it can be called a "fairy resort"

It was occupied by Duomu Taoist in the middle stage of foundation building. Under his management, it gradually became a small market.

Because it had only been established for a few decades, and due to insufficient accumulation and other reasons, it was not very prosperous. Most of the monks who came in and out of this city were in the Qi Refining Stage, and few monks in the Foundation Building Stage came.

But this can be regarded as a foundation, and it is much better than being a helpless and wandering wandering cultivator. At least Duomu Taoist people do not have to worry about spiritual stones.

Under his painstaking management, everything is developing in a good direction, and the market has improved slightly in recent years. The name of Mangshan City has gradually spread within a hundred miles.

In the second half of Youshi, the sky was already dark.

An inconspicuous red light came from the sky. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a spiritual boat. It finally landed on the grassland seven or eight miles away from Mang Mountain.

It was Liu Yu and his party!

The range of spiritual consciousness of monks in the middle stage of foundation building is usually four to six miles, and the distance of seven or eight miles is enough to avoid the scanning of their spiritual consciousness.

Even if Duomu Taoist heard the news about the change of ownership in Guque City and kept alert at all times, he would not be able to detect it.

Liu Yu immediately ordered all the monks to leave Guiyuanzhou and land on the grass first, and asked Jiang Qiushui and others to jointly perform simple illusions to hide everyone's whereabouts.

Guque City is the northernmost fairy city in Youzhou and even the Yan Kingdom. Its status is very important and is comparable to Qianxue City.

The fall of such an important fairy city was earth-shattering news to the entire Baiyun Temple, Youzhou and even Chu State, like thunder on the ground.

As the overlord of the two states, Baiyunguan cannot fail to take corresponding countermeasures.

The information that Yuanyang Sect, Hehuan Sect, and Cangyue Valley sent out teams of monks to conquer the forces along the way in Youzhou is not a top secret. Baiyun Temple may have made corresponding arrangements.

Maybe the disciples he sent would unite with the affiliated forces to form a large net and set up an ambush somewhere, waiting for Chu teams to enter.

Faced with such a situation, Liu Yu's cautious character would naturally not act rashly.

Although Taoist Duomu was originally just a casual cultivator and did not look like he was related to Baiyun Temple, who could say for sure?

If he accidentally fell into an ambush and his team suffered heavy casualties, his plan would basically be ruined.

"First send people into Fangshi to get some information. If there are no problems, we will take action immediately and attack Fangshi with the force of thunder."

"We must win it as quickly as possible so that no news about Mangshanfang City leaks out in a short time."

Putting Gui Yuanzhou into the storage bag, Liu Yu entered the illusion range and said in a deep voice.

This kind of ordinary illusion, with his spiritual consciousness that is close to the peak of foundation building, is of course not affected at all.

Thirty Qi refining teams stood on the grass and whispered to each other. The strange monks began to communicate and become familiar with each other. After all, they were "teammates" who would fight together for a period of time.

The ten foundation-building monks were discussing the next action inside the soundproof shield.

"Senior Brother Liu, isn't this a little too conservative?"

"There are ten of us foundation-building monks, and our senior brothers have profound cultivation and high strength. However, there is probably only one foundation-building monk named Duomu in Mangshanfang City. With such a huge gap in strength, we can completely attack and capture them directly. ”

"Besides, the thirty Qi-refining juniors in the team are all in the middle stage of Qi-refining at their lowest level. They are by no means comparable to the stragglers in the city."

Yan Kai didn't seem to take Mangshanfang City seriously, and he was a little eager for success, so he asked in confusion.

As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately fell silent.

Some of the five foundation-building monks including Meng Wenxing felt that they were too cautious, but as monks from affiliated forces, they could not say it in public.

"Junior Brother Yan's words are wrong. For the safety of the team, before I know the actions of the monks from Baiyun Temple, I can't be too careful."

Cui Liang said immediately.

He still has a lot of life left to enjoy the beauty of the world, but he doesn't want to lose his life due to carelessness.

At the same time, he also felt that this fellow student was too reckless, so he made up his mind to keep a distance and not let it affect him.

"After all, the State of Yan does not need the State of Chu. We are new here, so it is better to fight slowly."

Jiang Qiushui also disagreed with Yan Kai's radical views.

As for Leng Yuexin, she just stood quietly without saying a word, looking towards Mang Mountain without knowing what to think.

"Yes, I should be careful when I first arrive."

"Okay, that's it."

"Junior Brother Yan, take people to find a few cultivators nearby and bring them back to ask about the recent situation in the Mangshan Market."

"Junior Brother Cui, arrange a few disciples to enter the market to inquire about the news and see if there are any abnormal situations."

"It is best to bring back a guard of the market and interrogate the specific arrangements of the market."

"As for Fellow Daoist Meng and others, take turns to pay attention to the surrounding situation and don't let us be discovered by the immortal cultivators who pass by by chance, so as not to alert the Mangshan Market and the Bai family of Fenghuang Mountain."

No matter what the cultivators thought, Liu Yu made the final decision and quickly made corresponding arrangements.

The world of immortal cultivation has never been a minority obeying the majority. It is normal for the powerful to have more say or even dictatorship.

As the leader of the team, he has a sense of justice and is the strongest person in the team. He can make a decision on everything.

Discussion is just a process, and the final result must be the result he wants to see.

"Yes, Senior Brother Liu."

Yan Kai wanted to say something else, but seeing that Senior Brother Liu had made a decision, he could only make arrangements honestly.

Liu Yu had great prestige in his heart, and he usually didn't have the courage to disobey.

Cui Liang also immediately took the order and arranged several disciples with suitable cultivation and mature and steady, changed their clothes and prepared to go into the Mangshan market to inquire about the situation.

Liu Yu naturally couldn't do everything himself, and seeing that everyone did it according to the order, he nodded slightly with satisfaction.

In this way, he was free for a while.

So he took out the futon and sat down, took out the Yi'an Danshu and looked through it, waiting for news from everyone.

Whether it was to inquire about the news or to capture a few local cultivators and bring them back, it was a very simple matter.

If the two of them couldn't even do this, they would be a bit useless, and Liu Yu would have to readjust his attitude towards such teammates.

He has always been more rational and has no mercy on useless people.

Fortunately, that didn't happen.

Two hours later, Yan Kai and Cui Liang returned with several disciples one after another. The former captured several local cultivators, and the latter used means to tie up a market guard.

"Ah" "Uh ah"

The screams rang out, but they were restricted to a certain distance by the spell, and only a few monks could hear them.

"Brother Liu, apart from the recent martial law in Mangshan Market, nothing else has happened."

"After a round of interrogation, they have said what they know."

Not long after, Cui Liang and Yan Kai reported to Liu Yu.

They were still clean-cut. Interrogating monks was naturally done by disciples who were proficient in this. They only needed to report the results.

Due to the rush of time, the monks who were captured naturally had to speak in the shortest time, so the means were a little cruel.

Although most of them were innocent, the current and future actions were related to the success or failure of the team and their own lives, and there must be no mistakes or leaks.

In the case of their own lives, no Qingzhou monk felt that there was anything wrong with doing this, even if they felt reluctant, they had no intention of stopping it.

Human nature is selfish, and truly selfless people have long been eliminated in billions of years of evolution.

In the end, several local monks and the market guards were killed, their bodies turned into ashes, nourishing the land.

"Is the news reliable?"

Liu Yu repeatedly confirmed.

"Everything is arranged by us personally, there will be no mistakes, please rest assured, senior brother!"

Yan Kai and Cui Liang clasped their fists and replied immediately, they were very confident about the news they got personally.

"In this case, we will act immediately, surround the market first and surrender, and see if Duomu knows what to do."

"If he doesn't know what's good for him, we will forcefully break through the formation and take down Mangshan Market in the shortest possible time."

Liu Yu's face was serious, his eyes fixed and he said immediately.

In fact, there is a better way at the moment. It is completely possible to let several foundation-building monks hide their cultivation, enter Mangshan Market without anyone noticing, implement the decapitation tactic, and directly take down Duomu.

In this way, it is easy to take down Mangshan Market, which is much simpler than a frontal attack.

But this was the team's first battle, and the gap in strength between the two sides was so big that if some "despicable" means were used, it would be a bit anticlimactic.

And Liu Yu also needed a fair victory to build the team's confidence.

...

Soon after he gave the order, the entire team was mobilized, no longer hiding their tracks, and marched towards Mangshan Market with great fanfare.

The distance of seven or eight miles is close at hand for cultivators, and it can be crossed in a moment, so there is no need to use the Guiyuan Boat.

In the dim night sky, beams of light soared into the sky and flew towards the Lingshan Mountain within sight.

Among them, the ten beams of light in the front were the most eye-catching, and they approached Mangshan in a few breaths.
