Under the mountain gate of Shenmu Sect, after Lin Xiao learned of the defeat of Shenmu Sect and Ziyunguan, he immediately ordered Bai Zichen to bring all the cavalry to the mountain gate of Shenmu Sect, converge the 200,000 horses in Lin Xiao's hand, and then set up pass defense lines at various intersections of Shenmu Sect Mountain Gate to collect the rout.

Seven days later, the first batch of rout troops arrived, and this group of rout soldiers still had a little strength, because they were the only remaining high-level monks of the Shenmu Sect after they were gathered, which was equivalent to a pathfinder.

Bai Zichen successfully defeated them again, captured more than 3,000 people, and learned from the captives that the rout of the Shenmu Sect was at least five or six hundred thousand, not counting the kind that had already fled, so he urgently asked Lin Xiao for support.

Lin Xiao sent 300,000 horses from Lingmu City again, and then routs arrived one after another, most of them were captured by Bai Zichen, and a few had to escape.

On the fifteenth day, the largest force of the Shenmu Sect arrived, with a total of more than 300,000 horses, led by the only remaining high-level of the Shenmu Sect, but these people were all lost, the organization was completely disrupted, and it was impossible to organize a battle formation, and there were very few high-level monks, Lin Xiao sent Ma Langfei and other high-level monks to support, and Bai Zichen only led the cavalry to rush once and completely dispersed them.

Half of the remaining dozen or so high-ranking monks were killed on the spot, half fled into the mountain gate of the Shenmu Sect, and less than a thousand people followed them into the mountain gate, and most of the rest were captured by the Nanzhou army.

After this rout was dispersed, the follow-up rout soldiers received the news, and they began to dare not go home, so they could only be reduced to refugees, they lacked food and clothing, but they had the force to be in their bodies, and began to become robbers in groups, and the forces that plagued the territory of Ziyunguan came.

Most of the monks on the territory of Ziyunguan were also routed, and they fled back to their respective families and sects in a hurry, and they were greeted not by the pacification of Ziyunguan, but by the extremely vicious rout, and they suffered heavy losses immediately, and the situation in Ziyunguan's territory deteriorated rapidly.

The high-level of Ziyunguan learned of this situation, but they didn't have much strength to clear it, they could only protect a small area of their core territory, and the rest of the place could only let those vassal forces protect themselves, which was equivalent to abandoning these centaurs.

In the Nanzhou camp under the gate of Shenmu Sect, Lin Xiao came to inspect with a group of high-level officials, and in front of Lin Xiao and others, there were dense captives, these people were taken away from all the magic weapons, sealed the cultivation, and gathered together, with more than 300,000 people.

"Lord Lin Meng, what are you going to do with these captives?"

"What did Lu Lei Yuan say over there?"

"Kunlun can't take prisoners anymore, it's too much, Lin Meng's master, I really can't send it over anymore"

Ma Langfei said embarrassedly, it stands to reason that he should consider the interests of Nanzhou, but there is no way, the entanglement between Tianyue Sect and Kunlun is too deep, and he can only speak for Kunlun.

"Okay, I know, I won't send it, Zichen"

"In, Alliance Leader"

"I heard that you run a lot of territory in the area of Lingmu City"

"Yes, Lingshan, mines, and markets, many of them are intact, and it would be too wasteful if they were completely destroyed, so I arranged for people to operate them, and they have been quite effective, just one Xuanjing mine, you can dig hundreds of thousands of Xuanjing every month, the kind of pure profit"

"Very good, among these captives, you can pick any of them, whether they are used to dig ores, or farm or whatever, tell them that they can regain their freedom by serving for ten years for the Nanzhou army, and then you can choose a group of people among them to come out as leaders, not only to give them a year of reduced labor, but also to give them some treatment, do you know how to do it?"

"Don't worry, Zichen knows"

Bai Zichen nodded, in fact, this is a way of colonization, these captives are all monks in the territory of the Shenmu Sect, they are more familiar with the situation here, find some soft bones who are greedy for life and afraid of death, support them, let them be evildoers, to squeeze the rest of the captives, and Nanzhou will reap the benefits of fishermen.

"Master Lin Meng, do you see if we also have to arrange something to do?"

Tan Minglun saw that Lin Xiao had arranged a fat difference for Bai Zichen, and he couldn't help it, and the rest of the high-level officials were also staring, looking forward to Lin Xiao's order.

"I know that you also want to go to the rear to do things, but this is not allowed by the conditions, the war is not over yet, and it has entered a new change, you think about it, the Shenmu Sect and the Purple Cloud Temple have been defeated for half a month, is there any new news coming from the northern front?"

"This doesn't seem right"

"That's right, shouldn't Penglai and Kunlun bulldoze the Immortal League in one go, why did they go?"

"Lord Lin Meng, what's going on?"

"I haven't thought about it yet, we need enough intelligence to analyze, but we also have to deal with it actively, how to deal with it, is to accumulate materials and let the monks under me break through as much as possible, so I will pick a group of people to come out and manage the land we occupy, and the rules will be done in accordance with the borderless land of Nanzhou, and the benefits will not be my Lin Xiao's family, but the entire alliance, all of your countries and sects can select a group of disciples with management talents to come over and participate in management, and at the same time, if the cultivation is about to break through, you can also apply to the alliance, I have asked the logistics to sort out a batch of loot, which can be exchanged for some war merits in advance." ”

"So Very Good, Very Good"

"Thank you Lin Alliance Leader"

Lin Xiao's proposal was approved by everyone, as long as Lin Xiao didn't eat alone, it would be beneficial for everyone to share, and everyone would naturally have no opinion.

Lin Xiao then went to see the prisoners with relatively high cultivation, this time among the captives, none of them were above the Divine Void Period, they either ran away or died in battle, there were dozens of Lingguang monks, but how to use these people, Lin Xiao hadn't thought about it yet.

Lin Xiao was too busy, there was no movement at all in the mountain gate of the Shenmu Sect, and he didn't even know how many people and horses there were, the situation in the immortal cultivation world was changing too quickly, and Lin Xiao was very uneasy in his heart.

Bai Zichen picked more than 100,000 low-level disciples, brought them back to the vicinity of Lingmu City, and asked them to mine and farm, and selected a group of more obedient monks from them to become managers, while Nanzhou monks were responsible for supervision and security.

The capture of the captives also continued, and many monks couldn't leave their homes after all, and wanted to come back to have a look, so they would soon be caught by the Nanzhou monks and become captives.

After Lin Xiao talked about the affairs of the Nanzhou army, he once again found the supreme Zhuo Lin of Kunlun, in all the previous battles, Zhuo Lin did not participate, his only task to come to the Nanzhou army is to contain the other party's supreme and protect Lin Xiao, his longevity is not much, and he will not do it easily.

"Zhuo Senpai"

"What's the matter?"

"The ancestor of the Shenmu Sect has been defeated, and the divine soul has returned to its true body."

"There's no need to go back, his soul has always been in his real body, and what was killed was just a split soul"

"Mu Wanqiu's ability is so powerful?"

"The body of the demon clan has unique means, and the old man can do it when he is young"

"Okay, Senior Zhuo, I want to go and meet the Ancestor of the Shenmu Sect for a while, I don't know if I can invite the Ancestor to go with me."

"When you go to see Mu Wanqiu, you have to enter his territory, and when you get there, the old man is not completely sure to protect you, aren't you afraid of death?"

"With the war, no one has a 100% chance of surviving, afraid of death, what kind of immortal do you cultivate"

"Have the guts, can, when to go"

"If it's convenient, go now"

"But don't resist me"

Zhuo Lin nodded, stood up, walked to Lin Xiao's side, grabbed his shoulder, and then broke through the void, stepped out, and came to the mountain gate of the Shenmu Sect a hundred miles away.

The mountain gate of the Shenmu Sect has an eighth-order defense array, but for the Supreme, it is still like entering a no-man's land, but as soon as he enters, the high-level of the Shenmu Sect senses it, and the alarm bell of the mountain gate of the Shenmu Sect rises.

"Old wood ghost, old friend is here, don't you see me?"

"Zhuo Lin, you're not dead yet"

"The old man can't live you, but he won't die so soon"

"Come in, the disciples of the Shenmu Sect retreat and return to their respective positions"

The voice of the ancestor of the Shenmu Sect resounded throughout the mountain gate of the Shenmu Sect, and the monks who were like facing a great enemy were a little at a loss, but Zhuo Lin didn't care, and took Lin Xiao to fly in the air and came to the territory of the ancestor of the Shenmu Sect.

The ancestor of the Shenmu Sect has a mountain peak in the mountain gate, with a radius of about five hundred miles, which is the forbidden place of the mountain gate of the Shenmu Sect, and no one dares to approach it without his order.

These three hundred miles were surrounded by dense fog, and those dense fogs had the effect of isolating the divine sense, and outsiders couldn't see what was inside at all, and when Lin Xiao arrived, a path was divided into those dense fogs, and Zhuo Lin took Lin Xiao deep into it.

"A lot of spirit trees, a lot of high-level spirit trees"

Lin Xiao entered it, and immediately found that there was not a single ordinary tree on both sides, all of them were all kinds of spiritual trees, the fourth and fifth orders were everywhere, and the deeper he went, the higher the grade.

The spirit wood becomes a demon, and after the sixth order, it can still turn into a human form, and it can also move around at will, without being restricted by the terrain, but the spirit wood that leaves the land cannot be improved, so it is best to take root in the land, and then turn the branches on the body into clones and leave.

In the depths, Lin Xiao saw dozens of children frolicking, Zhuo Lin told Lin Xiao that these were all spirit wood demons above the sixth order, and the spirit wood could certainly turn into a human form after reaching the sixth order, but their mental intelligence was very low, far inferior to the demon beasts of the sixth order, so it would take them a long time to grow.

"That kid with blood-red skin is a demon with blood ginseng, how many tens of thousands of blood ginseng do you need to transform into a shape?"

"At least 200,000 years, in the entire immortal cultivation world, the most high-level elixirs are not Danxia Sect, nor is it the Qingdi Immediately and Kunlun Three Families, but this forbidden place of Shenmu Sect, just these transformations, take out any one, it is enough for each sect to break the head."

"I didn't expect the Shenmu Sect to have such a strong heritage"

"Wrong, this is not the foundation of the Shenmu Sect, it is Mu Wanqiu's, Mu Wanqiu has supported many forces in the past million years, and the Shenmu Sect is just one of them, even if the Shenmu Sect is dead, as long as he wants to, he can support one again"

"I see"

Lin Xiao nodded, it seems that the relationship between the Shenmu Sect and this Mu Wanqiu is really not good, both sides are guarding against each other and using each other.

For Mu Wanqiu, supporting a force for his use, just defending the periphery, he finally wanted to soar, and the Shenmu Sect relied on Mu Wanqiu to protect his interests and rank among the first-class forces, nothing more.

"Arrived"

"The junior Lin Xiao has seen the wood senior"

"You are Lin Xiao?"

After Lin Xiao saluted loudly, an old-fashioned person appeared in front of Lin Xiao and looked at him.
