Chapter 589: Outwit Cuiyun Mountain!
Xuanjian Zhenren, the Yuan Infant Stage Monk of the [Six Dao Alliance], finally didn't dare to be tough to the end and chose to compromise.
He can't help but be uncompromising.
On the battlefield of Suyun Sect, they had already lost four Jindan monks, and the lives of one Jindan ninth-layer monk and one Jindan seventh-layer monk were decided by his words.
Not to mention that there are still many [Six Dao Alliance] Purple Mansion Monks and Zhuji Monks on the battlefield who have no time to escape, if he is tough, these people will finally be able to escape safely, I am afraid that it will be difficult to reach even one percent.
The most important thing is that if he doesn't choose to compromise, Zhou Yang and the "Kan Diaspora" and other Jindan monks can immediately withdraw to support the battlefield on the side of the Qiantian Sect.
With the speed of the Jindan period monk, even if he sent a message to the [Six Dao Alliance] monks over there to retreat now, it would be too late at all.
The final result of this will be the [Six Dao Alliance] monks who have entered the territory of the Chang Kingdom, except for those Jindan monks who are still alive who can escape for the most, most of the rest of the monks will leave their lives here.
And this result is something that Xuanjian Zhenren never wants to see.
You must know that there are as many as tens of thousands of foundation building monks and purple mansion monks!
The resources consumed to cultivate these monks were much more than the 200 million spirit stone war reparations demanded by the Jade Dragon Zhenren.
Of course, with such a large amount of spirit stones, the [Six Dao Alliance] will definitely not pay all of them with spirit stones, and it is likely that some of them will be converted into spirit mountains and ore veins to pay later.
This is also a common reparation scheme used in past wars between the two sides.
It is worth mentioning that Zhouyang's Chong Xuanshan was also specially mentioned by Yulong Zhenren, making it clear that it was the territory of the [Xuanqing Dao Alliance] and was not within the scope of the so-called compensation.
And after the two Yuan Infant monks negotiated, the two [Six Dao Alliance] Jin Dan monks who were surrounded by Zhou Yang and others were also lucky to pick up a life, and hurriedly left the battlefield with the remaining monks of the [Six Dao Alliance] on the battlefield, and retreated directly to Anguo in the north of the Chang Kingdom.
At this point, the war on the side of the Chang Kingdom is completely over, and the surviving [Xuanqing Dao Alliance] monks can also go back to their respective homes to carry out post-war reconstruction work.
Their original mountain gate may have been destroyed by the war, but as long as the spirit mountain is still there, it will not take much effort to rebuild, and most of the war compensation of the 200 million spirit stones will be used to fund their reconstruction work.
However, this does not include Zhou Yang.
His Chongxuan Mountain has become a ruin, the mountain protection array has been destroyed, and he wants to rebuild it, but it is not what he can do now, he can only wait for the war to be completely over, and ask the Yuqing Dao Sect to send people to help rebuild the mountain protection array.
Moreover, as Jindan monks, they didn't have much time to rest until the war between the entire [Xuanqing Dao Alliance] and [Six Dao Alliance] was completely over.
As soon as the war between the kingdoms here ended, the tasks from the high-level of the Dao Alliance had already reached the hands of the various Jindan monks through the Jade Dragon Zhenren.
Zhou Yang and Xiao Ying received different tasks this time.
Among them, Xiao Ying was transferred to a safe immortal city at the rear of the battlefield, specializing in treating the wounded who had retreated from the front-line battlefield, this job was very safe, and Zhou Yang did not object.
On the contrary, he himself was given an extremely dangerous task.
Strictly speaking, this was not a Dao Alliance mission in the ordinary sense, but the price he had paid for accepting Chong Xuanshan in the first place.
His mission is to infiltrate the territory of the [Six Dao Alliance] and wait for an opportunity to assassinate Wang Botong, a traitor who had betrayed the enemy on the battlefield before.
This task is no ordinary danger.
Wang Botong, as the person who made a "great contribution" to the [Six Dao Alliance] in this war, must now be under strict protection.
Otherwise, if he was easily assassinated by the people of the [Xuanqing Dao Alliance], who would dare to follow suit in the future?
If it weren't for the promise of Yulong Zhenren and Zhou Yang, the Yuan Infant Monk would never protect Wang Botong, and he would rather return Chong Xuanshan than dare to accept this task.
Of course, the greater the risk of the task, the greater the benefit.
As long as he completes this task and kills Wang Botong, a traitor, Chong Xuanshan will be completely owned by him in the future.
This means that in the future, the Xuanyang Immortal Sect or the Yuqing Dao Sect can no longer take back Chong Xuanshan and let him compensate for the corresponding losses in the name of not performing the task, and he will be free again, and he can freely choose to do what he wants.
That alone was worth the risk.
What's more, in order to increase his success rate, Yulong Zhenren also personally sponsored him a "Yuqing Immortal Urn" as a life-saving thing, as well as a special spirit rune that could disturb the Yuan Infant Monk's "Yuanguang Traceback" magical power.
The "Yuqing Immortal Urn" can help the monk defuse a mortal attack, and it is the top life-saving thing, and Zhou Yang was in the [Heavenly Immortal Realm] at the beginning, thanks to this thing's protection, he was spared.
If he has this thing in his body, he will assassinate Wang Botong, even if he encounters the other party who takes out a treasure like the jade talisman of "Xuanyang Zixiao Divine Thunder", he can avoid the catastrophe unharmed.
So, next Zhou Yangming was to escort Daoist Xiao Ying and a group of disciples to a certain immortal city in the rear to recuperate, but in fact, after arriving at that immortal city, he quietly left and went to the heart of the [Six Dao Alliance].
In order to hide people's eyes, he even left the two fifth-order spirit birds, the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle and the Colorful Peacock, outside the cave mansion of that immortal city, and infiltrated into the depths of the enemy realm alone.
According to the news from the inside, soon after Wang Botong betrayed and surrendered to the enemy on the battlefield of Qiantianzong, he was transferred to the heartland of the [Six Dao Alliance].
It was also at this time that the [Xuanqing Dao Alliance] knew the real reason for its collaboration with the enemy and betrayal.
It turned out that this Wang Botong had actually reconciled with a woman in the Purple Mansion period in the "Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers", the top faction in the [Six Dao Alliance], and became a Taoist couple with the other party.
And the female cultivator of Wanhua Valley was able to succeed in marrying Dan later, and it was also because Wang Botong promised to become an internal response in the war, so he was able to be rewarded with many spiritual objects by the high-level of Wanhua Valley to help him marry Dan.
After Wang Botong surrendered to the enemy and betrayed before the battle, he was sent to the territory of Wanhua Valley to meet his Taoist companions.
Because Wanhua Valley is a pure female cultivator sect, no male cultivator is allowed to stay for a long time in the mountain gate, so Wang Botong and Taoist couples lived on a beautiful fifth-order spiritual mountain "Cuiyun Mountain" outside.
In addition to the two of them, there is also an elder of Wanhua Valley who has been cultivated in the late stage of Jindan for a long time, and whether there is anyone else to protect him in the secret is not something that the insider can know.
But even if it was just these strengths on the surface, it was enough to make Zhou Yang frown.
Wanhua Valley is also a large sect with two Yuan Infant Stage cultivators, and the fifth-order spiritual mountain where Wang Botong is located is located in the heart of his sect, and it is very likely that there is a teleportation array connecting to the Wanhua Valley Mountain Gate.
If this is the case, as long as the teleportation array is not destroyed, the monks of Wanhua Valley will be able to support them directly through the teleportation array.
At that time, let alone one Zhou Yang, even ten Zhou Yang, there were no waves.
"A frontal assault is definitely not possible, even if Wang Botong does not have the additional monk sent by the [Six Dao Alliance] to protect him, there must be a self-defense treasure that he gave him after the betrayal, and then there is the late Jindan monk in Wanhua Valley sitting in Cuiyun Mountain, even if I can find a way to sneak into it, I may not be able to kill him in person, let alone escape from Cuiyun Mountain, which opened the mountain protection array. ”
"Then if you want to complete the task, you can only outwit it. ”
Zhou Yang's eyes flashed, and he quickly used the method taught by the Jade Dragon Zhenren to contact the inner line of the [Xuanqing Immortal Alliance] placed on the side of Wanhua Valley, and through it, he found the information of the late Jindan monk of Wanhua Valley on Cuiyun Mountain, as well as the information of Wang Botong and his Taoist companions.
If he wants to outwit Wang Botong, he must first understand what kind of person Wang Botong is, understand what kind of person his Taoist companion and the people around him are now, and then make a plan according to the situation.
Wang Botong's information is easy to obtain, there are many people who have been friends with him for hundreds of years on the [Xuanqing Dao Alliance], and through those people, you can completely understand his life.
However, the information of his Taoist companion and the information of the late Jindan monk of Wanhua Valley on Cuiyun Mountain were a little difficult to obtain, and Zhou Yang waited for nearly three months to obtain a more detailed information.
After several days of research and deliberation, he finally came up with a solution that seemed feasible.
The solution is very simple, that is, to transfer the tiger away from the mountain first, and then steal the day to change the day.
Adjusting the tiger to leave the mountain is to first lure out the late Jindan monk of Wanhua Valley on Cuiyun Mountain.
Then Zhou Yang changed his appearance and changed his appearance, and he stole the sky to change the day, returned to Cuiyun Mountain openly, and killed Wang Botong on the mountain.
The reason that prompted him to make this plan was a preference of the late Jindan monk of the Ten Thousand Flowers Valley on Cuiyun Mountain.
The late Jindan monk of Wanhua Valley on Cuiyun Mountain is named Shi Yulian, a seventh-layer cultivator of Jindan, and he is very fond of collecting seeds of various spiritual lotuses for planting and transplanting.
In fact, many high-level monks in Wanhua Valley have this preference, because this is the subtle influence of their cultivation exercises on them.
The monks of Wanhua Valley will choose a flower as the natal spirit flower, and then they can collect the aura essence of this natal spirit flower through the exercises they practice to improve their cultivation, and Shi Yulian's natal spirit flower is a lotus.
For Shi Yulian, the more types of spiritual lotuses she collects and plantes, the more effective she will be when she collects the spiritual energy essence of these spiritual lotuses to cultivate.
On Cuiyun Mountain, she opened up a large alpine lake, in which dozens of different varieties of spiritual lotus were planted.
According to the information obtained by Zhou Yang, every time there was news of a new variety of spirit lotus, Shi Yulian would personally rush over to ask for confirmation.
Of course, if someone could give her a new variety of spirit lotus, she would also give her a generous reward.
And Zhou Yang was going to use a fourth-order spiritual lotus seed he brought from the extreme west to lure Shi Yulian away from Cuiyun Mountain, and then he changed his appearance into Cuiyun Mountain to kill Wang Botong.
The plan was bold and risky.
But because of this, it will be unexpected and unpredictable.
And in order for this plan to succeed, Zhou Yang needs to do three things, one is to enter and exit the token of the Cuiyun Mountain formation, one is to simulate the breath of Shi Yulian, and the other is to prevent the monks of Wanhua Valley from supporting Cuiyun Mountain through the teleportation array.
The former point is easy to say, there are not only Shi Yulian and Wang Botong and his wife on Cuiyun Mountain, but also many disciples of Wanhua Valley, as well as Shi Yulian himself's apprentices.
Those disciples of Wanhua Valley who enter and exit Cuiyun Mountain may need the monks guarding the formation inside to verify their correct bodies before they can enter and exit, but Shi Yulian's apprentices have special tokens that can freely enter and exit the formation.
Zhou Yang only needs to use a little trick to trick one of Shi Yulian's apprentices out and capture them, so that he can temporarily obtain the token, and then lure the apprentice out of Cuiyun Mountain before Shi Yulian finds out that something has happened to him.
However, the most troublesome thing lies in the last two points.
The appearance and body shape of the immortal cultivators are easy to change, but the breath is difficult to simulate, if Zhou Yang wants to simulate the breath of Shi Yulian, he can't do it on his own, so he can only turn to the Yuqing Dao Sect for help.
If you want to prevent the monks of Wanhua Valley from supporting Cuiyun Mountain through the teleportation array, only a top sect like the Yuqing Dao Sect can have a way to do it.
He directly used the "Fairy Spirit Jade Book" to contact the Jade Dragon Zhenren, informed the other party of his plans and difficulties, and asked the other party for help.
Yulong Zhenren appreciated his bold plan, and also gave a solution to his difficulties.
It turns out that in the immortal cultivation world of Liuyun Continent, there is a medium-sized sect called "Phantom Law Sect", and its sect has a treasure of inheritance called [Phantom Cloak], as long as you wear this [Phantom Cloak], and then there is something contaminated with someone's breath as a medium, you can transform and simulate this person's breath.
The best thing is that when the [Phantom Cloak] transforms the simulated aura, the monk can also adjust the strength of the aura.
In other words, even if Zhou Yang is a fifth-layer cultivator of Jindan, as long as he wears the [Illusion Cloak], he can make the aura of his illusion simulation as strong as Shi Yulian herself.
More than 2,000 years ago, a certain Yuan Infant Monk of Yuqing Dao Sect had a kindness to the "Illusory Law Sect", and now although the Yuan Infant Monk has passed away, the Yuqing Dao Sect is still there, and he wants to give the "Illusory Law Sect" ten dares, and he does not dare to be ungrateful and rely on this kindness, so it should not be difficult to borrow that "Phantom Cloak".
As for preventing the monks of Wanhua Valley from supporting Cuiyun Mountain through the teleportation array, it would be even simpler, the Yuqing Dao Sect established a sect with a talisman, and there was a spirit rune called "Chaotic Ethereal Spirit Talisman" in the sect, which could release a special force to disturb the space of a nearby area after being stimulated, making that kind of small and medium-sized teleportation array temporarily ineffective.
After Zhou Yang read Yulong Zhenren's reply, he had to sigh that these big sects were good, and the profound background was enviable.
Taking that "Illusion Law Sect" as an example, maybe the Yuqing Dao Sect monks who gave them grace at the beginning just did it casually, so they played an idle game and formed a good fate, of course it is good to have a reward, and it doesn't matter if you don't have it.
This can be seen from the fact that he did not use this favor until he died.
But a favor is a favor, and the Yuqing Dao Sect can not use this favor, but the "Illusion Law Sect" can't help but remember this favor, otherwise the consequences will be very serious.
Winning the favor of the millennium of the year, ungrateful will kill yourself.
The personal debt between immortal cultivators is the most difficult to repay, and the personal debt of the top sect like the Yuqing Dao Sect is even more so.
In fact, why is Zhou Yang himself like this now?
He also received the great favor of the Xuanyang Immortal Sect and the benefits of the Yuqing Dao Sect, so he had to take on the dangerous task of assassinating Wang Botong.
Top sects like the Xuanyang Immortal Sect and the Yuqing Dao Sect can be passed down for thousands of years, not only because the Yuan Infant Stage Cultivators have never broken the dynasty, but also because they "have a lot of help", and they can gather a large number of helpers to help them whenever they are in danger.
Zhou Yang was very envious of the Yuqing Dao Sect's heritage, but he also knew that this kind of thing could not be done overnight, but was the result of the efforts of generations of people.
And in order to succeed in this kind of thing, there is a very important prerequisite, that is, it must be strong enough.
The Yuqing Dao Sect was strong enough, so the favor left by their predecessor monks, even if he himself had passed away, the "Illusion Law Sect" would not dare not return this favor.
If the roles of the two sides are reversed, it is difficult to say whether the "Illusion Law Sect" is willing to return this favor.
Next, Zhou Yang found a remote place near Cuiyun Mountain and lurked, patiently waiting for the Jade Dragon Real Man to send over the things he needed.
During this period, he also contacted the inner monks of the Yuqing Dao Sect and asked these people to help investigate the information of Shi Yulian's disciples on Cuiyun Mountain, and find an opportunity to lure people out and capture them.
It was more than two months before what he wanted was delivered.
As soon as the thing arrived, Zhou Yang first refined the [Phantom Cloak] magic weapon, and then tried to use it to simulate the aura of Daoist Xiao Ying.
Sure enough, this magic weapon is worthy of being a treasure that even a Yuan Infant Monk like Yulong Zhenren has praised, and the simulated Xiao Ying's breath, even a Taoist like Zhou Yang, who has been with him for hundreds of years, can't detect any difference simply from the breath.
It's just that as a Taoist couple who has cultivated the Yuan Shen Shuang, there will be a special sense between him and Daoist Xiao Ying, if someone wants to rely on the [Phantom Cloak] to simulate Xiao Ying's breath to deceive him, I am afraid that they will have to suffer the consequences and be killed by him.
However, Shi Yulian did not marry a Taoist couple, Wang Botong and his Taoist companion on Cuiyun Mountain were not particularly familiar with Shi Yulian herself, Zhou Yang disguised herself as her to enter Cuiyun Mountain, and it was basically impossible for someone to find out that he was a fake through his appearance.
So after confirming that the [Phantom Cloak] was indeed available, Zhou Yang began to officially start the plan.
He first went to the Xiuxian family where Shi Yulian's five disciples were born, quietly infiltrated it, controlled the upper echelons of the family, and then asked people to send a message to Shi Yulian's five disciples to ask him to return to the family.
After the Purple Mansion period female cultivator came back, Zhou Yang concocted it again, put it in the "Qianyang Golden Pagoda" and suppressed it, and obtained the tokens of entering and leaving Cuiyun Mountain from her body, as well as things with the breath of Shi Yulian.
At the same time, the inner cultivator of the [Xuanqing Dao Alliance] also appeared in an immortal city tens of thousands of miles away from Cuiyun Mountain with the fourth-order spirit lotus seed given by Zhou Yang, deliberately letting an immortal cultivator family who had something to do with Shi Yulian know, and inducing him to report the news to Shi Yulian of Cuiyun Mountain in order to invite merit.
The plan got to this point and everything went well.
Shi Yulian really attached great importance to the xenomorph spirit lotus that she did not have in her hands, as recorded above, and after receiving the news, she quickly left Cuiyun Mountain and flew towards the immortal city.
And Zhou Yang, who had been waiting for a long time, waited for her to fly out for three or four thousand miles, and immediately pretended to be her and returned to Cuiyun Mountain.
"Didn't Shizun go to Yulan Immortal City to run errands, why did he come back so soon?"
The second disciple of Shi Yulian, who was guarding the Cuiyun Mountain Mountain Protection Array, saw the "Master" going and returning, and couldn't help but ask about the situation in confusion, but it did not prevent Zhou Yang from entering Cuiyun Mountain.
And Zhou Yang also stimulated the tokens he got from Shi Yulian's five disciples to enter the formation, while learning Shi Yulian's voice, and said slowly: "After thinking about it carefully on the way, I still feel a little worried about this, so I sent a message to ask Senior Sister He of Yulan City to help buy that kind of spiritual lotus seed." ”
After hearing what Shi Yulian had never thought of, Shi Yulian's second disciple was even more puzzled, and asked with surprise in his tone: "Senior Uncle He has always been a little at odds with you, will she be willing to help you with this?"
Worst!
Zhou Yang secretly said in his heart that it was not good, but he didn't expect that there was such a relationship here.
His mind spun quickly, and soon he snorted coldly: "Hmph, why are you talking so much today? It is taboo to talk about the master in vain, it seems that the teacher is still too lenient with you on weekdays, so that you don't even pay attention to the door rules!"
"Master forgives sins, the apprentice knows that he is wrong, the apprentice should not discuss the matter between you and Uncle He, and I hope that the master will forgive the apprentice this time. ”
Shi Yulian's second disciple was really frightened by Zhou Yang's harsh words, and hurriedly flew out of the formation and came to Zhou Yang to beg for mercy.
When Zhou Yang saw this kind of opportunity, how could he let it go, when he brazenly took action to restrain this woman and snatched the control array flag of the Cuiyun Mountain Mountain Protection Array from her.
Then he knocked the woman unconscious and hid in a hidden place, and his divine sense swept the entire spiritual mountain, and soon found the location of Wang Botong and his wife.
What made Zhou Yang happy was that in addition to Wang Botong and his wife, there was no third Jindan period monk of the [Six Dao Alliance] on this Cuiyun Mountain.
Wang Botong himself is only a fourth-layer Jindan cultivator, or he has just been promoted for less than ten years, and his Taoist companion has only been married for less than a hundred years, and his cultivation is still on the first floor of Jindan.
How can such two people be the opponent of Zhou Yang, a bad star.
He first used Shi Yulian's voice to trick the couple out of the cave, and then used the "chaotic ethereal talisman" given by the Jade Dragon real person to disturb the spatial laws on Cuiyun Mountain, causing the teleportation array on the mountain to lead directly to the gate of Wanhua Valley to lose its effect, and then he showed his true face and launched a surprise attack.
As Zhou Yang expected, Wang Botong really had a treasure like the jade talisman of "Xuanyang Zixiao Divine Thunder", and after discovering that Shi Yulian was actually pretended by Zhou Yang, he did not hesitate to use this treasure.
However, Zhou Yang, who had the protection of the "Yuqing Immortal Urn", was not afraid of his blow at all, and took the initiative to inspire this life-saving thing to carry it over.
Next, Wang Botong and his wife, who did not have this life-saving thing, naturally couldn't escape Zhou Yang's hot hands, and they both died under Zhou Yang's hands in less than two quarters of an hour.
And after Zhou Yang killed the couple, he just collected the corpses and trophies of the two, and fled directly from Cuiyun Mountain, and did not embarrass the ordinary disciples of Wanhua Valley on the mountain, and even the disciples of Shi Yulian who were caught did not kill a single person.
