Chapter 1043: The Ancient Battlefield
Zhan Chen and Ye Xingqian still left in the giant teleportation array, of course, in order to return to the sect quickly, they had to pay a teleportation fee of one million top-grade immortal stones. It is conceivable that once the war starts, how many immortal stones will be consumed, and the transmission fee for exporting troops to the front line alone will be astronomical.
Back in the sect, they immediately felt a tense atmosphere, and it had only been a week.
Ye Tianrong immediately found Zhan Chen to report the situation: "Sect Master, it's urgent now, there have been sporadic demon cultivators in Taichen Prefecture who have invaded our Taichen Prefecture to burn and loot, and some small and medium-sized demon sects in our Taichen Prefecture are also active frequently, frequently attacking and harassing our territory. ”
Before Zhan Chen could speak, Ye Xingqian sneered: "Every time before the Righteous Demon War, these clowns will come out first to make trouble, it seems that we have to adopt a strategy of killing chickens and making an example of monkeys." ”
"How?" Ye Tianrong asked.
"Strike first and exterminate a few demon sects in Taichen Prefecture!" Ye Xingqi said.
Ye Tianrong was still a little worried, and asked, "Will this cause action on the side of Tai Yingzhou?"
"No, the more the time comes when the big war is approaching, the more those big demon sects don't dare to make a big move, because Huang Wuji hasn't come to Taichen Prefecture yet, and if they act rashly, they may disrupt the layout of the Ten Demon Emperors. ”
"However, although those Demon Sects hate it, they don't have to worry about it, I think it is better to keep their heads up and concentrate all their forces to defend the headquarters, which was done in the past when the old sect master was here. Ye Tianrong said.
"Dad, the teacher was too kind to those Demon Sects, so he let them go, but we must change something now. ”
"Those Demon Sects are like weeds, they will grow again immediately after they are removed, why waste your strength on them? The scale of the Righteous Demon War is very large, and I don't know how many elite elders will be sacrificed, we should shrink our defense line now and preserve our strength. ”
Zhan Chen can see that at the beginning, the father and daughter had a disagreement on the enemy's strategy, and this opposition also generally exists within the Humanist Sect, which is a contradiction between radicals and conservatives.
He knew that he should stand up and express his opinion at this time, so he said: "Dad, I think what Xingqi said is right, we can't stay in the sect all the time, we must take the initiative to attack and give those arrogant demon cultivators a head-on blow, otherwise their arrogance will only become more and more arrogant." ”
"However, we still have to deal with the changes that may occur on the side of the Tai Ying Prefecture, and at this time, it will be troublesome to send out all the disciples in the sect, and it will be troublesome to gather them at that time. Ye Tianrong said.
"Don't worry, there are our elders in the sect to guard it, and when it comes to the decisive battle, the competition is the quantity and quality of the ten thousand law-level powerhouses on both sides, we should now let the disciples at the bottom go out to experience more, so that they can become strong as soon as possible, and increase the chances of surviving in the battle of the righteous demons." Moreover, we also have many cities in Taichen Prefecture, and those cities have supplied many taxes for our sect, so we can't abandon them now because of the battle between the righteous and demons, and we should also send people to organize them to evacuate to the relatively safe rear. ”
Ye Xingqian nodded with a smile and said, "Dad, what Zhan Chen said is right, I completely agree. ”
Ye Tianrong shook his head and said, "Let it be." ”
Ye Xingqian said to Zhan Chen again: "Zhan Chen, I think we should immediately convene a meeting of the elders, assign the task, and send the elites in the sect to sweep away the demon cultivators who have invaded my realm." ”
Zhan Chen replied, "It's up to you, but I have a request." ”
"What requirements?"
"I'm going to take part in the demon extermination. Zhan Chen replied, looking eager to try.
"You, you're the Sect Master, and you should be in charge of the Extreme Sky Island. Ye Xingqian said.
Zhan Chen shook his head and said, "I, the sect master, am about to be regarded as an ornament by you, and now is an extraordinary period, I should contribute even more!"
"But—"
"It's nothing, as the sect master, I should be in the front! don't worry, I will be careful, and the sect will be handed over to the senior sister to be responsible." Zhan Chen left with a word.
These days, the teacher's voice often echoes in his mind, he has had enough of the feeling of staying in the sect all day and doing nothing, and is eager to find a few demon cultivators to eliminate.
Ye Xingqian watched him leave, but there was nothing he could do. At this time, Ye Tianrong smiled and said, "Daughter, let Zhan Chen go out for activities, you all know that he is a martial idiot, he has been inactive for a long time, and his bones are rusty, of course he will feel uncomfortable." I have already observed that Zhan Chen's strength is very strong, as long as he does not meet a strong man of ten thousand laws, his strength is enough to protect himself, I will let Ah Long follow him, so it will be no problem, right?"
Ye Xingqian sighed faintly and said, "Let him be, I'm so busy that I don't have time to care about so much." ”
After that, Ye Xingqian quickly summoned the elders of the sect to arrange the next tasks, and under her reasonable arrangement, the huge machine of the Humane Sect began to operate efficiently. The work of recruiting troops and sweeping away the invading demon cultivators was carried out at the same time.
And Zhan Chen took Ah Long to embark on a journey to eliminate demons, don't look at the fact that there are only two people in their team, but they can all exert the strength of the powerhouses of ten thousand laws, and all the demon cultivators they encounter are ambushed.
Before they knew it, they had come to the junction of Taichen Prefecture and Taiming Prefecture.
On this day, Zhan Chen and Ah Long climbed over a continuous mountain together, but in front of them was an endless wilderness.
Somehow, when Zhan Chen saw this wilderness, he had an extremely depressed feeling in his heart, although there was still a big sun in the sky, but the wilderness gave people a bleak and desperate feeling, and there seemed to be an eerie aura wafting in the air, which made him shiver uncontrollably.
Zhan Chen pointed to the wilderness in front of him and asked, "Ah Long, what kind of place is this?"
Ah Long seemed to be familiar with this place, and immediately replied: "Zhan Chen, this place is called the Taiyuan Plain, and it is also the largest plain in Taichen Prefecture, with an area equivalent to the sum of a hundred Jiecheng Cities. ”
"It's so big!" Zhan Chen couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, it is said that this place was the most fertile land in Taichen Prefecture hundreds of millions of years ago, and the food produced could be eaten by the entire population of Taichen Prefecture!"
There are not only high-ranking immortals living in Taichen Prefecture, but also more ordinary people, most of whom have no qualifications to cultivate immortals at all, and they cannot become immortals, and they still need to consume a lot of food.
"But what the hell is the wilderness I see?"
"Because this has always been the final battlefield of the Great War of Righteousness and Demons. Aaron sighed.
"Has the Great War of the Righteous Demon always been fought on the Taiyuan Plain?" Zhan Chen thought thoughtfully.
"Yes, it has been that way for 200 million years. This plain originally spanned Taichen Prefecture and Taiying Prefecture, and the scope was large, so both sides of the Righteous and Demon used it as a decisive battle, once in 100,000 years, every time a large number of Righteous Demon Monks died on this land, and after each major war, it would become potholed and unrecognizable. ”
"No wonder I feel that the yin qi here is very heavy, and the Great War of the Righteous and Demons has lasted for two hundred million years, during which many monks must have died, and their remnant souls are more or less left on this land. ”
"Exactly. ”
"But why did Liqitian re-level this place?"
"Maybe it's to prepare for the next battle of the demons. Zhan Chen, try to think about it, if there are potholes, how can you arrange the army?"
Zhan Chen stopped talking, he always felt that there was something strange in this, and after a while, he asked Ah Long again: "Ah Long, don't you think it's strange? Emperor Wuji has to go to great lengths to assemble the Demon Dao army every 100,000 years, just to fight with us here, and our Righteous Path Alliance is the same, this war happens too regularly, I think it's not so much a war as a rehearsal, and it keeps going on and on." ”
Hearing Zhan Chen say this, Ah Long couldn't help but shudder, although Zhan Chen's thoughts were strange, but it really made people unable to refute them, all of this seemed to have a pair of invisible hands manipulating behind his back, but no one had ever thought about it.
Zhan Chen analyzed again: "In fact, Huang Wuji can completely choose other routes to march, even if the army he leads passes through the Taiyuan Plain every time, but as long as there is a mismatch in the time of the encounter between the two armies, the place of the battle will not be the Taiyuan Plain, this is too coincidental!"
