Chapter 479: The Eve of the Great War

Two days later, late at night!

Under the pressure of Dongchang, the lights have been bright on Wudang Mountain in the past two days, and the two newly promoted Taiji Four Elephant Sword Array hosts, with the cooperation of many disciples, are constantly familiar with the operation and hosting of the Four Elephant Sword Array!

Now, these people have been busy for two days and two nights in a row, and they are all exhausted, and even so, the attainments of the two new sword array masters in this sword formation have not improved much!

After all, it's too short, and they're not really talented!

On the contrary, this group of disciples, because of the long-term fatigue of cultivation, has already wilted one by one, their faces are a little trance, and even when they are training, they often appear powerless, resulting in mistakes in the sword formation!

"Senior brother in charge, the disciples all need to rest, if it goes on like this, before Dongchang comes, our disciples will not be able to bear it by themselves, and besides, the effect of training the sword formation in this state is not very good!"

The three elders came to Geng Tiannan, who was watching the sword formation in action, and the dim light of the fire shone on the wrinkled, also solemn face, with obvious exhaustion.

Even this elder, whose strength was much higher than those ordinary disciples, was a little unable to hold on!

"I understand, too, but ...... Dongchang has arrived in Huzhou City, maybe one day it will go to Wudang Mountain, even if there are six masters in charge, if our Four Elephant Sword Formation does not work, it will be difficult to support it!"

Geng Tiannan took a deep breath, and the look on his face was even more helpless, but he also understood the truth that it was too much, these disciples had really reached the limit, and it would be in vain to continue!

He shook his head bitterly and said,

"Forget it, it's come to this, there's no other way, you take them down to rest!"

"In addition, let Pan Ren and Xu Fengli also have a good rest, this kind of thing suddenly pressed on them, and their pressure should not be small!"

"Yes, senior brother in charge, you also rest and rest, you have accompanied us to practice the Four Elephant Sword Formation in the past few days, and you are also a lot haggard, if the East Factory is attacking, you will have to rely on the senior brother in charge to preside over the overall situation!"

"Don't get tired!"

The third elder gave a solemn instruct with a solemn face, and slowly retreated, and as his order was issued, those disciples who had long been exhausted all stopped training one after another, and sat on the ground one by one.

"Don't sit still, go back to sleep! I will continue training tomorrow morning! This matter is related to the life and death of Wudang Mountain, don't treat it as child's play!"

The third elder glanced at the many disciples with a low gaze, and his face was also full of solemnity, and he instructed,

"Pan Ren, Xu Fengli, you two should also have a good rest, don't have too much pressure, continue to train early tomorrow morning, and go to war with Dongchang, there should be some time!"

"Yes, Third Elder!"

The two middle-aged disciples stood up from the crowd, and walked towards the residence with some solemnity and fatigue, although they have improved a lot in the past few days of high-intensity training, both the mind and the body have reached the limit!

Soon after, those disciples also recovered a little, got up one after another, and walked towards their residences.

This huge martial arts training ground gradually became empty, the night descended from the sky, enveloping the entire Wudang Mountain, Geng Tiannan and the three elders and the four elders stood in front of the Lingxiao Palace, looking at the dark and oppressive night, they were all a little silent!

"Wudang Mountain has stood for thousands of years, this is the biggest calamity!"

"I don't know if I can carry it this time in Wudang Mountain!"

After being quiet for a long time, Geng Tiannan said in a low voice,

"If I can't resist, I, Geng Tiannan, will be the eternal sinner of Wudang Mountain!"

"Senior brother in charge, don't say that!"

Although the faces of the third elder and the fourth elder were also very solemn, they were all relieved in time,

"Now that there are masters of Penglai and Tiangong on Wudang Mountain, no matter what, they will not let the Dongchang do whatever they want, no matter how strong the eunuch in the Dongchang is, it is impossible to be the opponent of Tiangong and Penglai. ”

"That's right!"

Geng Tiannan heard his junior brother's words, and there was a hint of relief on his face, but his worry was still unabated, and he said in a deep voice,

"However, I still feel a little uneasy in my heart, Dongchang is menacing, as soon as it enters the rivers and lakes, it will destroy the Shenjian Villa and the Hanging Temple, and now Wudang Mountain is the last remnant of this martial arts, they will not stop easily!"

"No matter what, we're going to give it our all!"

"Yes, all out!"

The two elders also nodded slightly, and the pupils of their eyes flashed with a thick awe,

"I have stood in Wudang Mountain for thousands of years, and I have never been afraid of anything, this time, no matter how strong he is in Dongchang, we will definitely not be cowardly, and we will definitely fight with him to the end!"

The deep voice fell slowly, and the three old men all looked up at the endless night sky, and their bodies were all exposed with a thick majesty and fierceness!

At the same moment, in the residence of Nawudang Mountain, a thin disciple was busy washing up with some exhaustion, his figure was a little lonely, and his eyes were also a little red because of exhaustion!

This disciple is Pan Ren, who has just taken over the position of the head of the Taiji Four Elephant Sword Formation, since the death of his master He Qiu, he has been training continuously for a long time, but because his talent is not high, the mastery of the sword formation is really a little more than enough!

Coupled with the solemnity of Geng Tiannan and the two elders, as well as the sense of oppression brought to him by Dongchang, these days have made him a little exhausted, and he really feels that he can't hold on!

"Senior Brother Pan, you seem to be very tired!"

Just as Pan Ren finished washing up and was about to return to his residence, a low voice came from behind him, and following the sound, a thin disciple also came to the front with some exhaustion.

He recognized this disciple, and his residence was not far from him, so he didn't have any defense, shook his head a little bitterly, and said with a wry smile,

"Can you not get tired? I've been training for days now!"

"Now my whole head is buzzing and I can't wait to get a good night's sleep!"

"However, I also understand that this is a major event in Wudang Mountain, and life and death cannot be taken lightly......"

"Senior Brother Pan is right, this is a matter of life and death for Wudang Mountain, and we, the disciples, should go all out!"

This disciple had already come to Pan Ren's side as he spoke, he deliberately moved closer to Pan Ren's side, and then said,

"But I have a way to rest here, if Senior Brother Pan wants to listen to it, it should be able to relieve you a lot!"

"Oh, what's the solution?

Pan Ren wanted to sleep well now, and when he heard this, he immediately got closer curiously.

"That's ......"

The disciple also smiled slightly, and then the two got closer, and while leaning into Pan Ren's ear, he put his right hand on his waist without missing a trace, and then whispered,

"If you're dead, you'll be able to sleep forever and never ......wake up again."

"You ......"

When Pan Ren heard this, his face changed suddenly, however, before he could speak, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and at the same time, a stream of red also flowed into his hands!

"You...... You ......"

Pan Ren glanced down in disbelief, only to see the disciple staring at him with a gloomy face, while his right hand was holding a dagger, which pierced deeply into his heart.

The blood was flowing, and he couldn't even speak, he felt all the breath pass quickly, and there was a trance scene in his head!

"Senior Brother Pan, you sleep well, the disciples on Wudang Mountain will go down to accompany you sooner or later!"

This disciple sneered in Pan Ren's ear, and then pulled out a dagger and slashed his neck, making sure to ensure that this Pan Ren died tonight!

Crash!

In an instant, Pan Ren was already out of breath, and the disciple gently wiped the dagger clean, and then quickly swept towards the direction of Wudang Mountain!

It's done, there's no need for him to stay here!

And when this disciple arrived near the gate of Wudang Mountain, he also saw another disciple flying down together, that disciple was the spy responsible for assassinating Xu Fengli!

"Success!"

The two looked at each other, nodded to each other, then turned around the main road down the mountain, and then dived into the withered yellow mountain forest, and soon after, the two figures completely disappeared into the night!

Never see it again!

About an hour or so later, on the Wudang Mountain, which was already dead and silent, there was a sudden low roar, which was mixed with thick anger and panic!

Most of Wudang Mountain trembled!

Looking in the direction from which the voice came, I saw that the Lingxiao Hall was brightly lit again, and many disciples had already surrounded the main hall, and the two elders, as well as the head Geng Tiannan, were also standing on top of the main hall with a gloomy face, and the atmosphere around it was extremely depressed and gloomy!

There's even a bit of despair spreading!

Looking at the sight of these people, the bloody corpses of Pan Ren and Xu Fengli had already been carried to the top of the hall, both of them were stabbed in the heart, and then they were afraid that they would not die completely, so they made up a knife on the neck!

When the two were found, they were completely cold, and they couldn't die anymore!

"What's going on?"

"What the hell is going on?"

"Who knows?"

Geng Tiannan looked at these two corpses, the expression on his face also became extremely solemn, and even a little sad, he almost roared hoarsely, and the voice echoed endlessly in the Lingxiao Palace!

"Master, it should be done by two disciples, we have checked, there are two disciples missing!"

A disciple stood not far from the two corpses with a sad face and said nervously.

After the incident, under the orders of the two elders, he checked Wudang Mountain as quickly as possible, and found that there were two people missing, and sent people to track down the mountain, but they did not find their traces!

Obviously, he has already fled!

"The spies of the East Factory must be the spies of the East Factory...... This eunuch is so despicable!"

"He's going to destroy my Tai Chi Four Elephant Sword Formation in Wudang Mountain!"

"Damn......"

Geng Tiannan listened to the disciple's report, the expression on his face became extremely hideous, and he even had a little more resentment, the two sword array hosts who had just been selected were killed again, now, where can I find a new sword array host?

Isn't this equivalent to the complete uselessness of the Four Elephant Sword Formation?

Moreover, since Dongchang chose to start tonight, it is very likely that it will attack Wudang Mountain in a big way tomorrow!

This Geng Tiannan really doesn't know what to do!

"Senior brother in charge, the matter has come to this, grief is useless, let's think of a way, hurry up and find someone to replace Pan Ren and Xu Fengli, even if it is only one night, we can't give up!"

The Third Elder's eyes were also gloomy, and he came to Geng Tiannan and said in a low voice.

"Familiar with the sword formation, what effect can one night have? Not to mention that these disciples have already ...... I'm exhausted...... Hey......"

Geng Tiannan also understood the words of the Third Elder, but with the facts in front of them, they had no power to return to heaven at all!

No matter how hard you try tonight, it will be impossible to get the Tai Chi Four Elephant Sword Formation back into operation!

And when the Third Elder and the Fourth Elder heard Geng Tiannan's sigh, they were even more sad, and they lowered their heads helplessly, they really didn't know what to do!

"That's it, that's it, let's go back and rest!"

In a trance, this Geng Tiannan raised his head with difficulty again, his eyes were resolute and low, looking at the countless disciples gathered in the Lingxiao Palace, and then said in a deep voice,

"According to my estimate, Dongchang is bound to attack, without the Taiji Four Elephant Sword Formation, there will be none, and the strength of our disciples in Wudang Mountain is not weak, everyone will not use the Sword Formation tomorrow, and fight to the death with them!"

"Yes!

"Fight to the death!"

When these many disciples heard Geng Tiannan's words, some of the blood in their hearts was also stimulated, and their eyes were hot, their faces were awe-inspiring, and they roared.

"Even if there is no sword formation, my Wudang faction will never be a bad seed!"

"Fight to the death!"

The low and Ling Ran shouts would sound in the night sky of Wudang Mountain, and in the following kung fu, the disciples also withdrew from the Lingxiao Hall one after another, and then returned to their own residences.

Not long after, only Geng Tiannan and the two elders were left in the hall, and the atmosphere became solemn and depressing again, and there was even a feeling of loneliness, which made people breathless!

Especially Geng Tiannan, staring at the two corpses, his face was even more gloomy.

"Wudang Mountain is in trouble!"

The three of them were silent for a long time, and Geng Tiannan suddenly sighed deeply, and then said in a low voice,

"Judging from the current situation, the four major factions found the right time to kill He Qiu and Shen Tonglian, and got rid of Pan Ren and Xu Fengli tonight, all of them are in the plan!"

"Although they haven't come to Huzhou these days, they have been planning for a long time!"

"Our Wudang Mountain, I'm afraid it's going to be unpredictable!"

"Senior Brother ...... Head"

The Third Elder and the Fourth Elder listened to Geng Tiannan's low tone, and the look on their faces was also extremely low, and they also understood that although they had mobilized the momentum of the disciples just now, it was of no great use at all!

Momentum can only be effective when the situation is equal, and in the current situation, these disciples are ......

"Hey!"

The Third Elder and the Fourth Elder didn't know what to say in the end, and they all sighed slightly, their tones full of sadness.

And there is nothing to do!

"I'm going to go to the back mountain and meet those six masters!"

After a period of silence, Geng Tiannan raised his head slightly, he glanced at the two junior brothers, and said in a deep voice,

"For today's plan, only these six masters are our last reliance, I want to tell them what happened in the next few days!"

"Senior brother, let's go!"

The two elders arched their hands slightly, seeing Geng Tiannan's figure leave this Lingxiao Palace, the surrounding atmosphere became quiet and depressing again, the two elders turned around, and then looked at the statue of the Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable standing on the Lingxiao Hall together!

The dim light flickered, and the majestic and solemn statue was shrouded in the darkness, looking a little ethereal, and the face of the statue that was full of peace in the past seemed to have become a little more illusory at this moment!

It even gives people a faint sense of sadness!

"Could it be that my Wudang Mountain is really going to be destroyed?"

"In this battle, is it death or life?"

The two looked at the statue and were silent for a long time, and they both sighed deeply, and the solemn color on their faces was even more depressed.

This night is destined to be sleepless!

......

Crunch!

Crunch!

Geng Tiannan walked slowly from the mountain road, the soles of his feet stepped on the withered yellow leaves that fell to the ground, making a slight sound, and the cold wind between heaven and earth was whistling, making a low cry, as if someone was whimpering!

The stars above the night sky are also hidden by dark clouds, which is particularly bleak!

Geng Tiannan walked between such bleak mountains and forests, and there was a more obvious sense of sadness, and the gloom and sadness on his face were also even more obvious!

"Hoo ......"

About a quarter of an hour or so, he finally came to the Lingyun Cave of Lingxiao Peak, he stood at the entrance of this cave, looked inside with sadness in his eyes, and only saw a dimness.

This Lingyun Cave is a temporary place arranged by Geng Tiannan for the six masters, and in the past, it was the place where the successive heads of the Wudang Sect retreated and cultivated!

"Master Geng, is there something wrong?"

And just when Geng Tiannan wanted to speak, at the entrance of Lingyun Cave, a slender figure appeared, the figure was wearing a white monk's robe, and his face was as smooth as jade, even if the night was dim, it still couldn't hide a mysterious and ethereal aura on his body.

She is the unintentional master of Penglai Immortal Island!

At the same time, he is also responsible for the communication between several people from Penglai and Tiangong and the outside world.

"There are some things that need to be reported to a few ancestors!"

Geng Tiannan sighed a little lowly, and told the story of what had happened on Wudang Mountain in the past few days in an extremely low voice, especially the fact that the East Factory was likely to attack early tomorrow morning, and even informed this unintentional master!

"Please tell a few ancestors that tomorrow, there may be a big war!"

"I still have to bother a few people to make a move!"

"Got it!"

Master Wuxin grew up and cultivated on Penglai Immortal Mountain, and never left half a step, so this state of mind has always been stable and comfortable, she didn't have any worries, just bowed slightly, and turned back to Lingyun Cave!

It became dim again, and there was no breath coming out, Geng Tiannan stood at the entrance of the cave, waiting quietly for a while, and a low laugh came from inside,

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!"

"With my Tiangong and Penglai located, Dongchang will definitely not be able to set off any waves!"

"Wudang can be guaranteed!"

The voice roared by, vast and calm, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze, Geng Tiannan was in a trance for a moment, and he also felt that the anxiety and tension in his heart were dispelled a lot.

He was shocked by the strength of the people inside, hesitated for a moment, and said,

"Thank you to the ancestors!"

And at this time, his tone also calmed down!

Yes, those disciples lost by the Wudang Sect are only secular forces at most, and for the people of Heavenly Palace and Penglai Immortal Island, they are actually nothing at all!

With them, what is there to be afraid of in this East Factory?
