The Rise of the Shen Family

Chapter 737 Escape

The night wind was blowing gently, and a crescent moon in the sky flickered among the thick clouds, making the moonlight shining on the ground also flicker.

Under the dim moonlight, a nearly 100-foot-wide river was rolling eastward, with higher and higher waves constantly rising on the turbulent surface of the river.

This endlessly flowing river is exactly the Nujiang River that runs through the entire Lingnan Immortal Cultivation Realm. It flows out of the Hengduan Mountains in the northwest, and then rushes straight into the boundless sea in the east like a wild horse that has run wild.

While the Nu River flows through the entire Lingnan cultivating world, it also flows through Jiangmin County in the middle and lower reaches. After the surging river passes through Jiangmin County, it finally flows into the boundless sea from the mouth of Shanghai Shangfang.

With the help of the Nujiang waterway passing through, the freight and trade in Jiangmin County are extremely prosperous. Since ancient times, it has been a prosperous and prosperous place among the four counties of Qingyun, second only to Pingzhou County.

However, with the large-scale invasion of the Wujizong and its monks, this rich land fell into the suffering of war, and many local cultivating families in Jiangmin County were brutally exterminated by the monks of the Wujizong.

Nowadays, except for some local cultivating families who surrendered to the Wuji Sect early and barely retained their inheritance, most of the cultivating families migrated from the territory of the Wuji Sect.

Some of these families were established by the inner disciples of the Wuji Sect who had lost confidence in the way, and some were established by the casual cultivators of the Wuji Sect who made great achievements in the invasion of the Qingyun Sect.

Those Xiuxian families in Jiangmin County who have been wiped out will naturally leave many spiritual mountains vacant. These spiritual mountains are used by the Wuji Sect to reward their disciples and those casual cultivators who belong to them, so as to win people's hearts.

On the edge of the rushing Nujiang River, there is a hundreds of feet high peak standing there, looking from a distance, it looks like a black giant sword standing on the riverside.

This steep peak, like a sharp sword, is named "Zijin Mountain". It was originally the clan land of the Zhou family, a powerful family in Jiangmin County.

But since the Zhou family was wiped out overnight by the monks of the Demonic Dao, Zijin Mountain has been vacant, and when the Wuji Sect took control of Jiangmin County, it became a stronghold of its sect.

The mountain wind is lingering, and the stars are gloomy and cold.

At this time, there were only a few scattered lights shining on the entire Zijin Mountain, making it look extraordinarily deserted.

In the original main hall of the Zhou family, Wang Yuanqing, who was dressed in a dark green robe, sat at the head, and at the same time, an old man with gray hair was sitting in front of him.

"Fellow Daoist Xiong, what's going on with the various armies of the Qing Yun Sect?"

Wang Yuanqing looked at the old man with white beard and hair in front of him, and said slowly.

The name of this old man is Xiongcaihou, and he is the old patriarch of the Xiong family, a local wealthy family in Jiangmin County.

The Xiong family was originally a powerful family in Jiangmin County like the Zhou family, but it was slightly inferior to the Zhou family, so they competed with the Zhou family in many things, and always wanted to pull him down from the position of county guard.

However, Xiong Caihou had been a Dzogchen Foundation Establishment monk decades ago, but because of a series of reasons such as skills and qualifications, he has been unable to pry into the mysteries of the Golden Core Dao.

As the few remaining lifespans passed away, his fear of death also began to increase, so the Pai clan tried their best to find the treasures of heaven and earth that could increase the lifespan.

Until one day, a man in black robe came to the door and brought him the news of increasing his lifespan, and also gave him the hope of having a glimpse of the Golden Core Dao.

Although he knew that what the other party did was definitely a conspiracy and would not help him in vain, Xiong Caihou finally agreed to the transaction terms of the other party under the threat of death due to the imminent depletion of his lifespan and the temptation of the golden core road he dreamed of.

In this way, with the help of the elixir and secret method provided to him by the man in black, he managed to break through the realm of golden elixir and fulfilled the unattainable dream of countless Lingnan monks.

Although he is just a miscellaneous alchemy cultivator who was lucky enough to successfully form alchemy by using crooked ways, it can be said that he is not worth mentioning in the eyes of a real Jindan real person, just a clown-like existence.

But the state of Zadan can not only increase his lifespan by more than 50 years without any reason, but also let him appreciate the demeanor of Jindan Daoist.

In exchange for all this, he must join an organization called [Xuanming Blood Sect], and he must always be controlled by others, and must act according to the orders of the black robed man.

When Xiong Caihou broke through the realm of fake alchemy, the first thing he did was to join forces with the mysterious organization and wipe out the Zhou family who had been standing in his way overnight, and successfully took the position of county guard into his own family's hands.

What's more, the Xiong family also secretly lured several other aristocratic families in Jiangmin County to hunt down and kill the remnants of the Zhou family, and staged that confusing scene in front of Qingyunmen.

It can be said that the Xiong family was the culprit for the collapse of the Zhou family in Jiangmin County!

Later, when the Wujizong army invaded Jiangmin County, the Xiong family was also the first to rebel, and even led the Wujizong monks to destroy two local families.

Now, Wang Yuanqing was stationed in Jiangmin County by Wujizong, and the Xiong family naturally became his powerful weapon to control the entire Jiangmin County.

Facing Wang Yuanqing's inquiry, Xiong Caihou quickly replied:

"Reporting to the real person, now all the armies of Qingyunmen are marching towards Linhai County, and the teams of Shen Family, Ouyang Family and Baihua Palace are marching towards Tuyang Valley in the north."

Hearing this, Wang Yuanqing just nodded slightly, and then asked again:

"Is there any sign of monk transfer on the border of Jiangmin County and Pingzhou County?"

"Only a small group of troops are stationed, apparently to prevent us from attacking the hinterland of Pingzhou."

After asking a few more questions in a row, Wang Yuanqing couldn't help but fell into deep thought. After a long time, he looked at Xiong Caihou again and asked:

"This seat asked you to call all the foundation-building monks to Zijin Mountain, have everyone come?"

"Reporting to the real person, almost everyone has arrived. Now there are thirteen family monks on Zijin Mountain, and there are also ten foundation-building monks from the sect."

After hearing this, Wang Yuanqing just nodded calmly, and then sent the other party away.

"Okay, you go out first, let the monks of all parties step up their guard!"

"yes!"

After Xiong Caihou left, Wang Yuanqing was the only one left in the whole hall, and a pensive expression soon appeared on his face.

This time, Qingyunmen's massive counterattack started so quickly, which he did not expect, and Qingyunmen's army was coming in such a menacing manner that they almost came out in full force, as if they were determined not to give up until they reached their goals.

It was Qingyunmen's determination to counterattack that made him feel deep fear, and he could not help but start to worry about the retreat of himself and his family.

Previously, for the sake of family safety and protecting the family's treasure, he betrayed Qingyunmen, and with the help of Wujizong, he successfully formed a golden core.

And the moment Cangsu Daoist stepped down on Wuthering Heights and the moment he followed the Wuji Sect army to the Qingyun Sect, he and Qingyun Sect had already forged an incomprehensible blood feud.

As long as the Wuji Sect is defeated this time, there will be no room for him in the entire Lingnan Immortal Cultivation World!

After being silent for a long time, Wang Yuanqing looked up again at the jade slips on the table beside him, and a sternness and wisdom gradually appeared in his solemn eyes.

These few jade slips recorded the movement of various armies of the Qingyun Sect, and he saw some intriguing things from this information.

Now Qingyunmen's army is marching towards Tuyanggu Mine in the north of Linhai County, thus causing the entire Lingnan Immortal Cultivation World to focus on that mine.

And Jiangmin County, where he was stationed at this time, seemed to have been ignored by everyone.

You must know that Jiangmin County is also the main channel through which Qingyunmen can go north to attack the Wujizong, but Qingyunmen only arranged a small number of troops to guard against their sneak attack.

It is undeniable that the Tuyang Valley Mine can indeed provide various indispensable spiritual materials and materials for the Qingyunmen army in the next big counterattack.

Therefore, it is not unreasonable for Qingyunmen to target the large mine in Tuyang Valley. As long as it occupies the mine in Tuyang Valley, it will be able to continuously produce various weapons for the front line, thus making the balance of war begin to tilt towards itself. side tilted.

But these are just Wang Yuanqing's own guesses now. He doesn't know what the strategic intentions of Qingyunmen's senior management are, but he also has other worries in his heart.

. . . . . .

At the same time, the two figures quietly left Qingyunmen, quickly fled to the dark night sky, and fled towards Jiangmin County under the cover of thick clouds.

Several hours later, the two men successfully crossed the border between Pingzhou County and Jiangmin County, sneaked directly into Jiangmin County, and headed towards Zijin Mountain.

These two figures were none other than Zhentian Zhenren and Long Zhuqing. Obviously they planned to raid Wang Yuanqi's stronghold tonight.

Soon, a spiritual mountain that stood on the edge of the Nu River like a giant sword appeared in their eyes.

Above the clouds, Zhentian Zhenren and Long Zhuqing looked at each other, the former immediately took out a black formation disk from his bosom to break the formation, and the latter made corresponding preparations.

This time, Zhentian Zhenren and the two were obviously well prepared, and wanted to break through the fourth-order large formation below in the shortest possible time.

At this time, a gust of wind suddenly blew up, and the thick clouds in the sky immediately completely blocked the still bright moon, causing the whole world to plunge into darkness instantly.

The next moment, a brilliant aura pierced the dark night sky like a terrifying lightning, and landed on the large formation outside the Zijin Mountain with a mysterious formation aura.

"Boom"

The brilliant spiritual light fell on the large light curtain, and immediately there was a deafening roar, as if it was the sound of rolling thunder in the dark night.

The spiritual power fluctuations generated by the collision of the two instantly swept out to the surroundings, and the bright spiritual light illuminated the entire dark night sky in an instant.

The huge shock woke up all the monks on Zijin Mountain. They all looked up, as if they were looking for the source of the attack.

In the main hall, Wang Yuanqing quickly noticed the two real people standing on the clouds. A look of surprise flashed across his solemn face, but it disappeared soon.

"It's really here"

He looked at Zhentian Zhenren and Long Zhuqing standing on the clouds, murmured something in a low voice, and then disappeared into the hall.

On this side, Zhentian Zhentian above the clouds had already sacrificed the black array plate in his hand, and he immediately planted the array flags around the Zijin Mountain.

In an instant, the third-tier high-grade spirit vein at the bottom of Zijin Mountain was suppressed by Zhentian Zhentian, and the spiritual power it provided to the fourth-tier large formation began to decrease greatly, and at the same time, the water in the Nu River also Under the influence of its formation, it violently tossed.

Since there is no fourth-tier spirit mountain in Jiangmin County, and the highest rank is only third-tier top-rank, the Wuji Sect can only arrange a temporary fourth-tier large formation on Zijin Mountain in conjunction with the Nujiang River passing by its foot. , Draw spiritual power from the Nu River to feed back the formation.

Now, Zhentian Zhentian also used the power of the formation to suppress the spiritual vein under the Zijin Mountain, cutting off the channel for Dazhen to draw water-attribute spiritual power from the Nu River.

Because of the loss of a large amount of spiritual power support, the light curtain of the fourth-order protective formation on Zijin Mountain dimmed a lot in an instant, and the power it could exert was also greatly reduced.

At this moment, Long Zhuqing, who had been preparing for a long time next to Zhentian Zhenren, immediately sacrificed a red copper tripod, and poured all the spiritual power into it.

With the infusion of a large amount of spiritual power, the red copper tripod immediately became tens of times larger, and the terrifying coercion emanating from its tripod became stronger every month.

This [Tianyang Chiyan Ding] was a fourth-rank middle-grade magic weapon used by Master Qingyang back then, apparently it has now been handed over to Long Zhuqing.

"fall!"

I saw that Long Zhuqing yelled violently, and the huge [Tianyang Red Flame Cauldron] suspended in the night sky slammed heavily towards the light curtain of the protective formation on Zijin Mountain.

Looking at the huge cauldron that fell from the sky, all the monks on Zijin Mountain showed horror, and in a panic, they immediately began to maintain the large light curtain above their heads.

"boom"

The red copper tripod directly fell on the large cyan light curtain, causing the entire Zijin Mountain to shake violently, and countless huge cracks appeared on the mountain.

However, it seems that because there are still more than 20 foundation-building monks and a group of Qi-training monks on Zijin Mountain, even though the power of the large formation has been greatly weakened, it is still difficult to block this attack.

At the same time, Xiong Caihou was trying his best to find Wang Yuanqing, the Jindan real person, but even though he searched the entire Zijin Mountain, he couldn't find any trace of him.

At this moment, he immediately understood what was going on, and looked at the giant cauldron outside the big formation with dull eyes, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe his current appearance with a face like ashes.

Xiong Caihou knew that he had been deceived by Wang Yuanqing, and the other party had already prepared to run away, leaving them behind to create opportunities for him to escape.

"Boom."

When another deafening bang came out, the protective formation guarding the Zijin Mountain burst instantly, and at the moment the formation shattered, terrifying fluctuations of spiritual power swept away towards the surroundings.

At this moment, a flash of lightning shot up from the shattered formation, and quickly fled to the north with the help of the huge fluctuation of spiritual power generated when the shattered formation was broken.

"Wang Yuanqing, where are you going!"

Above the clouds, Long Zhuqing shouted loudly, and immediately turned into a red aura, chasing after Wang Yuanqing in the direction where Wang Yuanqing was escaping.

He seemed to have expected this to happen in advance, and at the moment of chasing him out, he immediately activated the fourth-order [Wind Teleportation Talisman] in his sleeve.

The moment this fourth-order talisman was activated, a white aura immediately enveloped him, and at an indescribable speed, he instantly caught up with Wang Yuanqing who was desperately fleeing.

"Where to go!"

With a roar, the [Tianyang Red Flame Cauldron] in Long Zhuqing's hand immediately suppressed and killed him, trying to keep Wang Yuanqing behind.

This series of sudden changes surprised Wang Yuanqing who was fleeing, and in a hurry, he threw out the black bead that he had hidden in his chest all day.

"Boom."

Although there was no blessing of spiritual power, the unremarkable bead collided with the giant cauldron killed by Longzhuqing Town without prejudice.

In an instant, a terrifying huge wave of spiritual power swept out from the impact, and the invisible wall of air directly sent Wang Yuanqing and Long Zhuqing, two Jindan real people, flying upside down.

However, this is not the most unexpected thing. The most incredible thing is that the fourth-tier middle-grade [Tianyang Scarlet Flame Cauldron] was knocked out by the black bead.

"Cough cough."

On this side, Wang Yuanqing couldn't control the scene in front of him anymore, he wiped away the blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, then immediately retracted the black bead, turned his head and escaped directly into the turbulent Nujiang River.
