Chapter Seventy-One: A Delicate Balance
In fact, the black-faced monk's injuries were not serious, if he did his best to get rid of the toxin or quickly get out of the siege of the dead soldiers of the Qi family, he would not fall into this step.
It's just that he was completely swayed by the atmosphere created by Ogawa, and many skills and magic weapons were quickly defeated before they could be used.
The most important thing is that Xiao Chuan stopped in time, did not let the Qi family know the details of his side at all, and did not give the black-faced monk a chance to fight back, and directly tied him to the pillar of shame of the loser.
Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Qi San floated to the front of the formation, and arched his hand: "This fellow Daoist, my family is outnumbered by the dead, and I have offended a lot!"
Although he said this politely and saved face for the other party, he still pointed out the fact that the Qi family monk was defeated.
After saying this, Qi San no longer paid attention to the black-faced monk, but turned to the Qi family's camp and said, "Fourth Young Master Qi, do you see that my family's team of warriors in the Bigu period can still enter your eyes?
This Fourth Young Master Qi knew in his heart that it was impossible for the Qi family's dead soldiers to have such strength, but after thinking about it, if there were really one or two more dead soldiers of this strength, his own side would probably suffer heavy losses in today's battle, and it would be very unfavorable to his future competition for the position of the head of the family.
"Hmph, let's let you go today, let's go!" This Fourth Young Master Qi refused to suffer.
"Qi four boys, the road is facing the sky, you and I don't want to fight to the death, but I can't say who lets who let whom!" At this time, Qi San changed his previous quiet affairs, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Qi San stroked his beard slowly, returned to the team, and said lazily: "Let's go!" and while brushing his beard, he flew slowly into the distance.
The Qi family also followed slowly behind the more than 100 numbers.
Xiao Chuan watched Qi San keep brushing his beard, he was really afraid that he would pull out his beard one day, but this old fox's words and deeds are really admirable, if he is cowardly at this time, and he is in a hurry to run for his life, it is likely to arouse the suspicion of the other party and chase him over.
Flying out of a hundred miles, more than 100 people from the Qi family took a deep breath, Qi San deliberately called Xiaochuan to the front, and said in front of everyone: "Today you have made a great contribution! This team of warriors will be commanded by you in the future, not in the warrior camp, and I will reward you with the head of the family after returning to the family!"
Not only that, Qi San also specially ordered Xiao Chuan and Qi Si to stay by his side together, showing Xiao Chuan's current status in the Qi family's team.
Obviously, such a force that can compete with the mid-stage Jindan cultivator is enough to attract the attention of any family.
But Xiao Chuan knew in his heart that it was his identity as a dead soldier of the Qi family that made the Qi family trust him so much, and if the Qi family knew that the poison of his Blood Soul Pill had been removed, he would probably kill himself as soon as possible.
In the next few days, as the search range got closer and closer to the center of the island in the middle of the lake, the number of encounters with other Immortal Cultivator clan teams increased.
But by this time, the slightly weaker forces on the island had already collapsed, and all that remained was a relatively large force force, and each other did not swallow each other's absolute strength in one bite, but reached a delicate balance when they met.
Those who have a holiday just throw down a few cruel words and then separate, and those who have not had a holiday can still pretend to be polite and greeting, and the island is calm for a while.
But everyone knew that the tranquility at this time was nothing more than the brewing of a greater storm, and the moment the spiritual veins were discovered was the moment when that storm broke out.
More and more forces stopped the search and began to set up camp in preparation for a long battle.
The Qi family was the first group of families to stop searching, Qi San selected a mountain col early, arranged several layers of defense array, and when the other families began to rush to find favorable terrain, Qi San was already standing in the mountain big array and Qi Si and Xiaochuan pointed out the country.
"Strong, cultivators fight with the sky, fight with the earth, and the most important thing is to know how to advance and retreat, and know how to take precautions!" said Qi San and Xiao Chuan.
Xiao Chuan was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that a few days ago, Qi San asked his name, and he ghostly reported Zhao Qiangsheng's name.
"Yes, Third Master Qi!, I just don't know if all the families don't look for the spirit vein now, and the spirit vein will pop up on its own?" Xiao Chuan hurriedly pretended to be pondering, asking questions, and covering up his strangeness.
"Strong, is it still useful to find the spiritual vein at this time? The wolves looked around, who found the spiritual vein, could they still keep it?" Qi San valued Xiao Chuan's cleverness and was very willing to analyze the situation for Xiao Chuan.
"Then can we still get the spirit vein?"
"No way!"
"And what are we doing here?"
"Ha Lu Ha
Xiao Chuan could vaguely guess Qi San's thoughts, but he still couldn't figure out the joints, so he simply ignored them and waited and watched.
Although cultivators are respected for their strength, under the same strength, strategy is often crucial, so Xiao Chuan is very attentive to Qi San's thoughtfulness and old man's affairs.
Half a month later, a fierce battle suddenly broke out somewhere on the island in the middle of the lake, and the fire between at least a few hundred cultivators stirred the aura of heaven and earth, and the sound and flash of battle were still clearly visible in the extreme distance.
Many immortal cultivators couldn't resist the temptation and rushed to the battlefield one after another, but some families, including the Qi family, chose to stay where they were and continue to strengthen their defenses.
The battle lasted for two weeks before it calmed down, and the huge family contingent that had rushed to the battlefield was lost and never returned.
At this time, Qi San was like a great enemy, urging all cultivators and dead soldiers to do their best to defend every day.
Sure enough, a few days later, the powerful Xuanyuan family, the powerful family that had won the most victory in the previous battle for the spiritual veins, began to attack the other family camps stationed on the island in the middle of the lake.
Many improvised and weakly defended camps were uprooted at once, many cultivators were killed and enslaved, and some of them were carefully prepared, and the impregnable camps withstood the enemy's frantic attack and survived, and the Qi family was one of them.
After repeatedly attacking these camps to no avail, the Xuanyuan family stopped attacking, and the entire island in the middle of the lake calmed down again.
A few days later, the Xuanyuan family sent an envoy to negotiate, expressing their willingness to pay the price of five thousand high-grade spars in exchange for the Qi family to give up the fight for the spiritual vein.
Xiao Chuan thought that Qi San would choose to refuse or bargain, but he didn't expect Qi San to hesitate, and agreed without saying a word, signed the blood soul contract on the spot, handed over the spars, and immediately led the family up and down to quickly withdraw outside the island.
