Chapter 1242: Clouds and Mist

That night, several pieces of news spread in Moyun City, one was that the cultivators led by the four sects of the Great Han Dynasty were gathering on the border, as if they were going to disadvantage the army hoarded by the Great Sun Demon Kingdom on the border pass.

One is that the murderer who destroyed the city of the Great Sun Demon Kingdom before also went to the border, preparing to attack again, and may attack the city on the first line of Shilongling, the situation is critical, and the demon cultivators need to go to support with one heart.

The so-called Shilongling is actually the border between the Han Dynasty and the Great Sun Demon Kingdom, because the mountain range is long and steep, like a stone dragon lying prone on the ground, so it is named. The Great Sun Demon Kingdom opened mountains and broke stones here, and built a lot of cities, specifically to guard against the Han Dynasty.

If a city is breached, then the entire line of defense is finished.

There is also a piece of news that the sect headed by the two sects and five sects is about to let its disciples also go to the border pass to serve their lives, and at the same time, they will also carefully observe the scattered cultivators who go to the war, and select some outstanding people to enter the outer gate.

For casual cultivators, being able to enter the two sects and five gates is definitely a step to the sky, even if it is only to enter the outer gate, it is quite rare, this is no different from a thief being recruited.

However, the two sects and five gates did not stand up and clarify that there was no such thing, which made the casual cultivators think that this was a tacit acquiescence, so the greedy scattered cultivators who had already been stimulated by the announcement issued by the city lord went to the border in groups.

People have a herd mentality, especially when they saw many scattered cultivators leaving Moyun City and heading to Shilongling, coupled with all kinds of rumors, more and more casual cultivators couldn't help but follow along.

You must know that among the demon cultivators in Moyun City, the number of scattered cultivators is actually the largest, so when their actions form a trend, they will inevitably affect the children of those cultivation sects.

Especially when more and more accurate information came back and learned that the power of the four sects of the Great Han Dynasty had indeed begun to gather on the border, and the sword blade was pointed at Shilongling, even the two sects and five sects who originally wanted to sit firmly in Diaoyutai were a little unable to sit still.

No matter what the first two sects and five sects wanted to do, even if they were silent when the initial rumors first appeared, they just wanted to use the loose cultivators as a pathfinder to test the enemy's situation, but when the tide formed, they had to be pushed by them.

If the two sects and five sects do not follow the crowd and participate in it now, then no matter what the result is, the impact on their reputation will be considerable.

Because the scattered cultivators will think: We went to be injured and killed in order to show our faces in front of the two sects and five sects, and also to win the opportunity to join the two sects and five sects, and even more so to fight for the Taoist system, but at the critical moment, the two sects and five sects were not there, isn't this playing with us.

For the Demon Cultivation Sect, a single loose cultivation may be as humble as a mustard in their eyes, but when the number comes together, it must not be taken lightly.

In particular, there were more than 200,000 scattered cultivators who had gathered in Moyun City before, and at the same time, more scattered cultivators were coming.

Such a number of people is already quite terrifying, if these scattered cultivators have a bad impression of the two sects and five sects because they are not handled well, then even if the two sects and five sects have a deep background, I am afraid that their reputation will become quite bad.

How can people from the two sects and five sects not understand the truth of the accumulation of gold and the destruction of bones.

So under such considerations, the two sects and five sects began to send the elders of the sects to leave Moyun City with their disciples and go to the first line of Shilongling.

Nominally, it is for the younger generation of disciples to try, but in fact, it is more to show their attitude.

With the movement of the two sects and five sects, it is naturally impossible for the other demon cultivation sects to sit idly by, and of course they will send elders and young disciples in the same way.

And when the Demon Cultivation Sect really moved, many of the loose cultivators who were originally a little hesitant and wait-and-see suddenly couldn't sit still, and immediately called friends and rushed to Shilongling, for fear that they would go late, have no chance to perform, and miss the opportunity to join the two sects and five sects.

When more and more demon cultivators left, Moyun City, which was originally overcrowded one after another, suddenly became a lot deserted.

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that so many people would leave at once. Uncle Seven, who had been paying close attention to the movements in the city, couldn't help but be a little surprised now. I can't imagine that this is all the result of ordering his subordinates to spread some rumors according to Xia Fan's request.

"I really didn't expect that just spreading some specious rumors could have such a big effect?

"Rumors are useful, of course, but it's the hearts and minds that really work. Xia Fan said with a smile: "Actually, those scattered cultivators may not know that those rumors are not necessarily true, but they are unwilling to accept such a fact in their hearts. ”

"They are more willing to believe that it is true than if it is a false rumor. Naturally, I want to give it a try and give it a try, after all, there may be a chance to fight for it, and if you don't fight for it, you won't have anything. ”

"Because of this, they went to Shilongling in groups, and then a tide was formed, which in turn forced the two sects and five sects to follow suit. ”

When Xia Fan said this, he pointed in the direction of Shilongling and said: "Of course, this also has a lot to do with the fact that Bang Ye and others have vigorously cooperated with us and made enough noise, if it weren't for the rumors that we could deceive the cultivators for a while, it would be impossible to deceive them all the time." ”

"But aren't you afraid of making the fake come true?" The seventh uncle looked at Xia Fan and said with some worry: "I know that you actually don't want to really provoke a dispute over the Dao system, if the demon cultivators go over this time and really fight with the four sects, I am afraid that this battle over the Dao system will be inevitable." ”

"Don't worry. It won't be that easy to fight. Xia Fan shook his head with a smile and said: "No matter whether it is two sects, five sects, or four sects, even if you have the heart to divide life and death, you will not easily end up fighting, if you are not completely sure, no one will give up all your lives." ”

"So even if there is a real fight on the border, at the beginning, most of the words will be between the armies of the Great Han Dynasty and the Great Sun Demon Kingdom, as well as between the scattered cultivators on both sides, and the sects on both sides will be high up and take a look at the wind first. ”

When Xia Fan said this, he looked at Uncle Seven and said, "As long as both sides can stay calm, it won't take too long, and three or five days will be enough for me to get things done." ”

"What? Little Master, do you want to destroy Moyun City in three or five days......? How is it possible?!" Uncle Seven was shocked when he heard this, and his face was incredulous.

No wonder he was so surprised, it was really because with his cognition, it was even more difficult to destroy Moyun City itself, not to mention just relying on the help of Xia Fan and him and a few of his subordinates, the difficulty was comparable to ascending to the sky.

"Actually, nothing is impossible, it's man-made. Xia Fan looked light-hearted, and said with a smile: "Seventh uncle, don't worry, I'm not dizzy, I'm not crazy, I know very well what I'm doing." ”

"Little master, I'll stop you what you want to do, but ...... If you can't do it, you must put your own safety first. Uncle Seven still felt that it was a little unlikely that Xia Fan would want to destroy Moyun City within three or five days, but it was not good to persuade him to give up, so he could only persuade him to be careful.

"yes, I see. Xia Fan nodded.

Then Xia Fan left Moyun City, and joined up with a henchman nicknamed Cloud Rat of the Seventh Uncle outside the city, and led him towards the mountains under Moyun City.

The cloud rat is a very peculiar monster beast, living on the white clouds, feeding on the white clouds, not big, but flying extremely fast. Even if the cultivator pursues it, he may not be able to catch up with a cloud rat that escapes with all his might, and at the same time, the cloud rat is very good at hiding, and it is difficult to be detected if it is drilled into the cloud.

Uncle Seven's subordinate has such a nickname, and he must be able to run and hide at the same time.

In fact, it was true, the cloud rat led Xia Fan to hide left and right in the mountains, and he successfully evaded the patrolling demon cultivators. made Xia Fan not know in his heart, and secretly sighed that there were capable people under Uncle Seven.

Although Moyun City is very high, it is not a castle in the sky, and below it is a majestic mountain base.

Although no one would believe that someone could destroy this mountain without alarming the people in Moyun City, for the sake of safety, there are still soldiers and horses patrolling the mountain for many years.

Xia Fan came over this time, and he actually came to the foundation of Moyun City.

He had been in Moyun City for a while, and although he was not qualified to go too deep into the core area, he could see that his formation was indeed quite extraordinary just by observing the outer city.

In addition to the so-called inner and outer seven layers mentioned by Uncle Seven, the great array of city protection that is linked layer by layer, Xia Fan also discovered a formation that few others would notice at all, that is, the clouds and mist that lingered in the sky above Moyun City.

It wasn't just clouds and mist, it was a formation, and if you didn't notice this and thought about attacking Moyun City, you would definitely suffer a big loss.

Nine times out of ten, the price of loss is to put one's life on the line.

Xia Fan didn't know who was in charge of setting up the formation when he built this Moyun City, but it was undeniable that he was definitely a formation master.

It is unlikely that he will attack strongly, even if he has one or two million soldiers and horses to carry with him, there is not much chance, Xia Fan naturally has to change his thinking.

So Xia Fan put his idea on the foundation.

It is actually not easy to destroy a mountain, especially when there are often more than 350,000 people scattered around the mountain to patrol crosswise, and there are many defensive formations in the mountain, and there are many demonic prohibitions on the mountain to strengthen it.

But just because it's hard doesn't mean it's impossible.

Especially for Xia Fan, those formations and prohibitions may be a roadblock for others, but they are really nothing to him.

Because Xia Fan has a big killing weapon in his hand that no one else has, that is, the Silent Demon Fire.

As the top flame in the legend of the Demon Race, the Demon Fire of Silence does not appear to be as violent and blazing as the Flame on the surface, but beneath its seemingly relatively calm surface is more powerful and corrosive.

To put it bluntly, the flames are like rolling torrents, which make people know at a glance that they are amazingly powerful and should not be underestimated, but the Silent Demon Fire is more like a calm deep water, seemingly harmless to humans and animals, but under the surface of the water is an undercurrent that is turbulent and agitated, enough to kill anyone who dares to despise it.
