Chapter 584: Victory!
Thanks to the timely appearance of the colorful peacock, Zhou Ronghua, Zhou Rongxiang and several other monks of the Zhou family finally survived.
However, the use of the "Blood Boiling Technique" for more than a quarter of an hour left them with irreparable violent sequelae, and their longevity was greatly damaged.
These survivors, when they stopped using the "blood boiling technique", everyone described them as emaciated as a skin-covered body, and their breath was extremely sluggish.
After this battle, even if they survived in the future, the path was almost cut off.
However, for Zhou Ronghua and others at this time, it was already a very lucky thing to survive, but no one thought so far.
After the colorful peacock rescued these people, he quickly caught up with Zhou Shengying and Zhou Shengyu, who took the first step, and then took these people to continue to look for the lost others.
On the other hand, it was said that after Zhou Yang and his wife rode the golden-winged thunder eagle to break through and leave Chongxuan Mountain, they fought fiercely all the way and fled all the way, and the situation was not smooth.
When the golden-winged thunder eagle was carrying two people, it could no longer use the innate supernatural power "Thunder Escape Technique" to lead people to escape, and although its speed far exceeded the flight speed of ordinary Jindan stage monks, an Anguo Jindan monk who was chasing Zhou Yang and the others also had a flying magic weapon with a grade as high as the fifth order in his hand, which was barely enough to catch up with them.
In this case, Zhou Yang and the others had no choice but to fight and escape.
However, after they escaped 20,000 miles, this situation suddenly took a great turn.
The two Jindan period monks sent by the Xuanyang Immortal Sect to support Chong Xuanshan finally joined Zhou Yang and them at this time after a seven-day long journey.
And the pursuing Qiu surnamed Jianxiu and the others obviously did not expect that Zhou Yang, who was fighting alone, would still have reinforcements.
So with the help of these two Jindan period monks, Zhou Yang's side finally turned around and had the absolute upper hand.
In a one-on-one situation, it only took him dozens of breaths to solve the sword cultivation of a Taiyi Immortal Sword Gate, and then he turned on the indiscriminate killing mode.
In the end, after a big battle, including the sword cultivator surnamed Qiu, the four Jindan monks who pursued Zhou Yang were all destroyed.
Among them, Jian Xiu surnamed Qiu and one of his junior brothers were killed by Zhou Yang, but the other two found that they couldn't escape the pursuit of the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle after they found out, so they chose to blow up Jin Dan in desperation, wanting to bring someone to the funeral.
But in the end, except for the greedy Golden-winged Thunder Eagle who was injured by their self-detonation of the Golden Pill, only one of the Jindan monks who came to support Zhou Yang suffered some minor injuries because of this.
Next, the Jedi turned the tables and killed Zhou Yang, who was chasing the soldiers, and soon returned to Chongxuan Mountain with reinforcements, and then strongly killed the Anguo Jindan monk sitting here, and quickly swept away the Anguo Zhuji monks and Zifu monks in the surrounding area with a thunderous momentum, and regained control of Chongxuan Mountain.
After that, while looking for those lost disciples, Zhou Yang used the "Immortal Spirit Jade Book" in his hand to send the news of the victory of the Yuqing Daoist Sect to Xuanshan.
This time, the reply from the Yuqing Dao Sect was very fast.
After understanding the battle of Chong Xuanshan through several exchanges with Zhou Yang, the Yulong Zhenren who personally communicated with him from the Yuqing Dao Sect immediately sent him the latest order, asking him to temporarily abandon Chong Xuanshan and go to the Chang Kingdom to rescue other sects and families of the "Xuanqing Dao Alliance".
This time, Zhou Yang accepted this order very happily.
Chong Xuan Mountain's mountain protection array, the "Five Elements Returning Yuan Array", was forcibly broken, unless a fifth-order array mage came to repair it, otherwise this spiritual mountain had lost its value of guarding.
Moreover, in the exchange with the Jade Dragon Zhenren, the other party had clearly promised him that as long as he went to the Chang Kingdom to support, even if he did not recapture Chongxuan Mountain afterwards, he would definitely arrange another spiritual mountain that was not inferior to Chongxuan Mountain as a foundation place.
More importantly, rushing to the aid of the Chang Kingdom can not only allow him to obtain an additional meritorious service when he is rewarded for his meritorious deeds after the war, but also allow him to find a safe place to place his disciples, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Therefore, after resting in Chongxuan Mountain for two or three days, and finding most of the disciples such as Ye Yunshan and Zhou Shengyu, Zhou Yang led the men and horses to kill the country of Chang.
At this time, the country of Chang has become a big battlefield, and the main army of the "Six Dao Alliance" is here and the "Xuanqing Dao Alliance" guard monks are fighting every day, and a large number of monks die on the battlefield every day.
In the face of the large-scale attack of the "Six Dao Alliance", the "Xuanqing Dao Alliance" chose to shrink its forces to defend, and various small families and small sects reduced the low-level monks to pieces and dispersed them to take refuge in the mundane, and then withdrew all the backbone of the cultivation above the foundation building period to a place where at least the fifth-order high-grade mountain protection array was guarded, relying on the power of the large array to hold on.
As a medium-sized sect with four Jindan stage monks in charge, the "Suyun Sect" spent a huge amount of merit to ask the Yuan Infant Stage monks to help arrange a fifth-order high-grade mountain protection array shortly after joining the "Xuanqing Dao Alliance".
This time, the "Six Dao Alliance" invaded on a large scale, and the Suyun Sect also accepted dozens of surrounding immortal cultivation families and monks from two small sects to resist the attack of the enemy's army.
The army of the "Six Dao Alliance" that attacked Suyun Sect had a total of ten Jindan stage monks, more than 70 Purple Mansions, and more than 2,000 foundation building monks.
And unlike the attack on Chongxuan Mountain, in the face of the powerful Suyun Sect, the "Six Dao Alliance" also sent war beasts and puppet armies to help in the battle.
The so-called war beasts are some domesticated huge beasts, not to mention the thick skin and flesh, and they are also covered with the defensive armor specially refined for them by immortal cultivators, which is the trump card killing move when attacking the mountain protection array.
A fourth-order war beast, after wearing a specially refined defensive battle armor, and then having the blessing of various defensive spells of the immortal cultivator, even if the Jindan stage monk personally attacked, it was difficult to kill it in a short period of time.
And this kind of war beast with a body length of more than 100 zhang can cause attack damage equivalent to that of a Jindan period monk to the mountain protection array with a single impact.
As for the puppet army, as the name suggests, it is an army of puppet beasts.
An army of puppet beasts, the number can reach hundreds or even thousands, as long as they are willing to spend spirit stones, these puppet beasts can continue to cause continuous damage to the mountain protection array.
When Zhou Yang led people to Suyun Sect, the army of the "Six Dao Alliance" was besieging the mountain and storming.
He looked from afar, and saw three war beasts resembling rhinoceros, with silver one-horned in front of their heads, driven by the beast monks of the "Six Dao Alliance", constantly roaring and charging towards the Suyun Sect's mountain protection array.
These three war beasts are all hundreds of feet long, and they themselves have a layer of hard black scale armor, and a giant one-piece battle armor that wraps their whole body is draped on the outside, and then they are also superimposed with various colorful defensive spells.
When they launched a collision, countless magic weapons and spells flew out from the mountain formation and hit them, including even the fifth-order magic weapons of the Jindan period monk envoy.
But most of these attacks will be canceled out by the defensive spells outside of their bodies, and even if the rest fall on them, it will at most leave some scars on their defensive armor.
Only the attacks of the Jindan monks were able to penetrate the heavy protection and break through their own black scale armor, leaving some wounds on their bodies.
But those wounds were insignificant compared to their sheer size.
And when they retreat, they will immediately have a "Six Dao Alliance" monks who are good at healing spells to help them heal and recover their injuries.
After their injuries healed, they would continue to attack the Suyun Sect's mountain protection array.
On the other side, a puppet army composed of seven or eight hundred third-order and fourth-order puppet beasts, under the control of the mountain-attacking monks, constantly launched long-range attacks against the Suyun Sect's mountain protection array.
These puppet beasts are all special types of puppets specially refined for attacking the mountain protection array, whether they are third-order or fourth-order, they will only have one attack method, that is, to transform the power of those spirit stones in the spirit stone groove into a powerful attack pillar of light and spray out.
This kind of attack, for a flexible immortal cultivator, unless it is a covering dense strafing, there is no need to worry about being hit.
But for the mountain protection array that can't be moved, there is no other way than to take it all according to the order.
It is also thanks to the fact that a large number of monks have also gathered in the mountain gate of Suyun Sect, so that the mountain protection array can be maintained through the mana provided by these monks.
Otherwise, if it was like the mountain protection array of Chongxuan Mountain, it could only be maintained by extracting spiritual veins and spiritual energy, and in this kind of fierce attack, it would have been broken by force a long time ago.
It's just that Zhou Yang knew that if there were no reinforcements, the monks of the "Six Dao Alliance" would only need to continue attacking like this, and within a month, the Suyun Sect's mountain protection array would collapse on its own due to overload.
Of course, the monks of the Suyun Sect also knew this, so they were not willing to be trapped in the formation, and they also tried to send someone to destroy the puppet army first to reduce the pressure on the mountain protection array.
At the beginning, the people they sent carried a large number of one-time powerful treasures, such as various high-level spirit runes and secret thunder beads and other treasures, which indeed caused some damage to the puppet army and the monks of the "Six Dao Alliance".
But when those one-time powerful treasures were exhausted, they were intercepted by the monks of the "Six Dao Alliance" who had the advantage of field forces, and the monks who came out were completely self-defeating.
By the time Zhou Yang arrived here, Su Yunzong had long lost the strength to fight.
Due to the large number of Zhou Yang and his party, plus the fifth-order demon beasts such as the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle and the Colorful Peacock did not know how to restrain their own aura, and the "Six Dao Alliance" had already deployed a large number of secret agents to monitor the situation within thousands of miles nearby.
As soon as they entered the Suyun Sect's mountain gate within a thousand miles, they used their pupil magic powers to see the situation in the distance from a distance, and the Jindan period monks of the "Six Dao Alliance" had already received the news and killed them.
At this time, it had been a few days since the battle of Chongxuanshan, and the news of his defeat had already spread to several "Six Dao Alliance" armies in the territory of the Chang State, and at the same time, there was also an order to attack the embankment Zhou Yang to enter the Chang State to support.
Therefore, before the fight, the high-level commander of the "Six Dao Alliance" army outside the Suyun Sect guessed that he was coming.
Therefore, there were six Jindan monks of the "Six Dao Alliance" who killed them, and there was also a fifth-order demon beast black wolf.
"Xin Daoyou, Ying Daoyou, Zhou has already sent a message to Lin Yuxian Daoyou of Suyun Sect, informing me of the news of coming for help, as long as we hold back these enemies, they will definitely fight back after seeing it, and the siege of Suyun Sect will definitely be lifted at that time. ”
On the back of the golden-winged thunder eagle, Zhou Yang saw the enemy's six Jindan stage monks and a fifth-order demon beast coming from a distance, and his face immediately turned grim, and he said his decision to the two Xuanyang Immortal Sect monks around him with a solemn face.
The two monks sent by the Xuanyang Immortal Sect to support him, named Xin Changlong and Ying Feihu, were both Jindan monks from the vassal sects under the Xuanyang Immortal Sect.
Among them, Xin Changlong, like Zhou Yang, is a fifth-layer Jindan cultivator, and Ying Feihu is a fourth-layer Jindan cultivator.
In the previous battle between the two of them, they had already witnessed Zhou Yang's toughness, and when they heard his words at this time, they immediately agreed without saying a word.
Although the enemy has six Jindan and one fifth-order demon beast, if they add Xiao Ying on their side, they also have four Jindan stage cultivators and two fifth-order spirit birds, which is not a huge disparity in strength.
The battle soon began, Zhou Yang took over a Jindan late stage monk and a Jindan middle stage monk alone, Xiao Ying cooperated with the golden-winged thunder eagle to drag the fifth-order black wolf and its master, and the remaining three Jindan stage monks were each taken over by Xin Changlong, Ying Feihu and Colorful Peacock.
More than a dozen Jindan period monks fought together, and the powerful mana fluctuations could be clearly felt by people from thousands of miles away, and the spiritual light of various magical spells was even more shining in the sky, dyeing the sky colorful.
Zhou Yang relied on the powerful defensive ability of the [Yanlong Shield] and his own strong physical defense, basically only attacking and not defending, so that the two Jindan period monks who were dragged by him could not be distracted from the others when they were fighting with him.
It's a pity that his supernatural methods were exposed in the battle of Chong Xuanshan, and the enemies who fought with him at this time have all prepared corresponding countermeasures.
Without the two great killing weapons of "Heaven Shaking Gong" and "Soul Orb" to help him control the enemy, it would be difficult for him to kill a monk of the same level.
Fortunately, he had no pressure in this battle, as long as he could hold off the enemy, he had already achieved the set goal.
As he said beforehand, after the battle started on their side, Lin Yuxian and other Jindan monks in the Suyun Sect finally led the monks guarding the mountain to launch a counterattack again.
It's just that the power of this counterattack is far weaker than Zhou Yang expected.
Originally, in the Suyun Sect, plus the two small sect Jindan monks who withdrew into it, there should be six Jindan stage monks.
But now there are only four people who have come out to fight back against the enemy, which is exactly the same as the number of Jindan monks left behind by the enemy.
It was only after the fact that he learned that the two remaining Jindan monks were seriously injured by the enemy's Jindan monks in the puppet army that had gone out to fight back and destroy the enemy.
Because of this unexpected factor, Zhou Yang, who originally had no pressure, is now under a lot of pressure again.
He had to help Suyun Sect lift the siege, otherwise even if he brought people into Suyun Sect, he would just sit in the mountains and reproduce the scene on Chongxuan Mountain that day.
And it can be expected that with the arrival of their support army, the "Six Dao Alliance" will definitely reinforce this side in the future, and at that time, Su Yunzong will still not be able to escape the result of destroying the gate.
"It seems that it will not work without paying some price!"
With a sigh in his heart, Zhou Yang's face turned ruthless, and he suddenly sacrificed the sixth-order middle-grade magic weapon "Zhentian Canglong Ding" that had never been used since refining.
The grade of this magic weapon is too high, although he used the "Blood Soul Sacrifice Weapon Technique" to refine this magic weapon through clever methods, he has never been able to urge this magic weapon to help him cultivate the "Canglong Refining Body Technique" to the fourth layer, let alone use it against the enemy.
But that wasn't to say he couldn't move the artifact at all.
In fact, as long as he was willing to pay some price, he would still be able to exert some of the power of this magic weapon a little.
At this time, in order to break the game, he also fought hard!
I saw that after he sacrificed this purple and cyan four-legged tripod, he immediately raised his fist and slammed his chest, squirting three mouthfuls of essence blood and falling on the top of the tripod, which was absorbed by the four-clawed dragon above.
After absorbing his essence blood, the four-clawed dragon seemed to come to life, and suddenly opened its mouth and let out a long dragon groan.
At the same time, an inexplicable force suddenly spread out from the "Zhentian Canglong Ding", and instantly fell on the late Jindan monk who was dozens of miles away from Zhou Yang.
Then the auspicious clouds under the feet of the late Jindan monk dissipated instantly without warning, and the whole person fell straight to the ground like a mortal who had fallen off a cliff.
"Die!"
Zhou Yang shouted angrily, ignoring the consumption of three mouthfuls of essence blood just now, he waved his fists and brazenly launched the "Canglong Fury" killing move.
It had been less than five days since he had last used this move, and it had been his third time in the last month.
With his current cultivation at the third level of the "Canglong Body Refining Technique", the damage to his physical body is very great, and if there is no elixir to recuperate afterwards, he will have to recuperate for at least a few years before he can return to normal.
But he really can't care about that much now.
But after the current level, he didn't even have a place to rest in peace, so what else could he talk about.
The dragon roar that shook the sky sounded, and the blue-golden dragon flew out from behind Zhou Yang, and quickly pounced on the fallen monk in a flash.
This blow did not kill him on the spot of the seventh layer of Jindan's cultivation, but it shattered his defensive magic weapon and defensive spell, and then with a flash of silver light, his head was instantly separated from his body and fell, and even Jindan and Yuan Shen did not have time to escape.
Since the "Taiyin Slashing Knife" has the word "Slash", it naturally has the effect of killing the soul of the monk, and the Jindan monks who were killed by it basically cannot escape from the Yuan Shen to take it.
And the fall of this Jindan seventh-layer monk means that the "Six Dao Alliance" side has failed in intercepting Zhou Yang.
The remaining five "Six Dao Alliance" Jindan period monks soon took the initiative to retreat, wanting to retreat into the army and join the others.
But Zhou Yang refused to give up so easily, and insisted on using the "Silent Soul Burning Divine Light" magic power to cooperate with the "Qianyang Golden Pagoda" to keep the mid-stage Jindan monk who raised the black wolf demon beast.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that after the master was caught, the black wolf demon beast didn't desperately rescue him, but fled directly from the battlefield with a long roar, and didn't follow the retreating "Six Dao Alliance" monks back to the army.
"Interesting, I didn't expect that after raising a demon beast to the fifth order in these years, there were still people who didn't sign the [Demon Soul Contract]!"
Zhou Yang was stunned, as if he had figured out something, and said his guess with a strange face.
The demon beast that has signed the [Demon Soul Contract], unless it is advanced to the sixth order, it will definitely not be able to resist the master's control, let alone betray the master.
For example, if Zhou Yang was caught, as long as he didn't take the initiative to order the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle to leave, the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle would definitely try his best to rescue him.
The fact that the black wolf was able to give up rescuing its master without hesitation and flee the battlefield on its own means that it had not signed the [Demon Soul Contract] with its master at all, and it did not need to be affected by the contract.
His voice was not small, and when Ying Fei, who was traveling with him, heard it, he suddenly smiled lightly and said: "Zhou Daoyou, I don't know, the [Demon Soul Contract] of the Royal Beast Sect is not all demon beasts can take effect, the black wolf that escaped, if Ying is not mistaken, should have the bloodline of [Nether Wolf], this kind of demon beast is inherently immune to all divine soul control spells!"
"Wraithwolves?"
Zhou Yang recalled the information of this kind of demon beast that was said to be related to the "Netherworld", and then compared it with the black wolf who escaped just now, and found that the black wolf's dark purple eyes were indeed exactly the same as the legendary [Netherwolf Wolf] eyes.
"Forget it, the left and right are just an ownerless demon beast, if you escape, you will escape, I should hurry up and help the Daoists of Suyun Sect break the enemy army!"
Shaking his head, Zhou Yang didn't have the idea of delving into this matter, when he took back Ye Yunshan and the other disciples who had been placed on the ground before, and killed them towards the battlefield outside the Suyun Sect.
However, by the time they arrived at the battlefield, the monks of the "Six Dao Alliance" had already gathered in one place, relying on a temporary fifth-order high-grade large array to attack and defend.
Although this kind of large array powered by the mana of immortal cultivators cannot be compared with the mountain protection array that relies on spiritual veins and spiritual energy, who makes the "Six Dao Alliance" have more people!
There are one or two thousand monks who have cultivated above the foundation building stage to provide mana for this large array, unless all the monks left behind in the Suyun Sect are killed, and they cooperate with Zhou Yang and others to attack together, and fight with the enemy to consume mana, otherwise the attack of just a few of them Jindan period monks is just a drop in the bucket, and it will not play a role at all.
But if you do that, if you don't do it well, you may be defeated by the enemy, after all, the enemy still has eight Jindan stage monks, as long as someone is not afraid of death to use the secret technique of fighting life to drag Zhou Yang and other Jindan stage monks, the remaining Zifu monks and Zhuji monks will kill together, and those monks of Suyun Sect who left the mountain protection array may not be opponents.
Of course, the above aspects are the worries of the monks of the Suyun Sect, and Zhou Yang is not ready to continue the attack, but because of his own state.
He has injured his body by performing the "Canglong Fury" combat technique one after another, and the previous urging of the "Zhentian Canglong Ding" has lost a lot of essence and blood, and the most important thing to do now is to find a quiet room to meditate and heal, instead of continuing to bring the wound to the battle and fight with the enemy to defeat both sides.
Since both sides have their own scruples and don't want to lose both, this battle can only end in a small victory.
After Zhou Yang said hello to Lin Yuxian, the only Jindan monk of the Suyun Sect who was familiar with the scene, he entered the mountain gate of the Suyun Sect with the other party, and then asked the other party for a quiet room to retreat and heal.
