Chapter 5: The First Battle
As the human monks learned more and more about the Shura, another interesting thing was gradually discovered by the human monks, and the Shura were actually very gentlemanly.
Why?
That's because, after countless battles, the human monks found that the Shura didn't bother to take action at all, and the human monks who were lower than their own cultivation were attacked, on the contrary, it was normal for the Shura to challenge the human monks.
When the human monks found out about this phenomenon, they were very calm, and the human monks were also dignified, so later the two sides slowly formed a tacit understanding on the battlefield and did not attack the enemy of the lower realm, which can be regarded as for the dignity of the human monks.
Of course, this tacit understanding is only limited to the two sides are generally equal in combat effectiveness, or the side with the advantage of strength in the case of one-sidedness, the weak side is not applicable, and it is about to die.
The cultivation realm of the Chirong Continent has always been a nest fight, and it has never experienced the invasion of outsiders, and it was only after two battles with the Shura that the cultivation realm completely woke up.
At the strong request of the Zixiao Sect and the Hehuan Sect, after several meetings of the Seven Great Sects, an alliance led by the Seven Great Sects and supplemented by many sects was formally established, and the purpose of the alliance was undoubtedly to exterminate Shura.
However, the great strength shown by Shura still surprised everyone, because at the beginning of the alliance, the only operation organized was actually equivalent to a failure.
Of course, the establishment of the entire Xiuzhen Alliance will not be smooth, countless sects and families, for hundreds or even thousands of years, have survived in this world at the same time, they have to survive and develop, and they have to grab money and land.
Therefore, there will naturally be friction, contradictions, and even blood feuds between each other.
There is also the incompatibility between the sect families, these are only on the surface, and secretly there are countless mutual calculations, and all kinds of despicable means are used.
There are seven of the most powerful sects in the Chirong Continent, in addition to the known Immortal Sect, Zixiao Sect, and Hehuan Sect, there are also Haitian Pavilion, Pranyo Temple, Wuwei Sword Sect and Blood Demon Sect.
These seven major sects belong to the top existence of the cultivation realm of the Chirong Continent, and they have always stood at the top of the continent for thousands of years, and of course they have contradictions with each other, there are fights, and such things as calculating each other also exist, and they are not uncommon.
Therefore, the establishment of the Xiuzhen Alliance was actually the result of the compromise between the seven major sects.
After the defeat in the second battle organized by the Hehuan Sect of the Zixiao Sect, before people could digest the news, the Shura army did not continue to stay in the desert honestly like after the previous two battles, waiting for the next attack of the human monks, but rushed directly into the continent.
At that time, the alliance had not yet been established, and tens of thousands of Shura once penetrated into the southern states for three or four thousand miles, and the land they went to was full of bloody storms, and the five southern states of the Chirong Continent fell by one-third in an instant.
Wherever the Shura army went, no matter whether it was a human or an animal, they would not spare and kill all of them, as if they had only come to kill.
The Zixiao Sect couldn't sit still, and the Hehuan Sect couldn't sit still either, but the five states attacked by the Shura army had one for each of their two families, and the Shura invaded the territory of the two of them.
As the Seven Great Sects, the strength of the Zixiao Sect and the Hehuan Sect is undoubted, and the two major sects quickly organized and once again launched an attack on Shura.
This time, the two major sects did not suffer as crushing defeats as the previous two times, but there was no victory to speak of, and the two sides launched a fierce tug-of-war, and neither could achieve any breakthrough victory, and this war between humans and Shura lasted for ten years.
Ten years of war have caused heavy losses to the two major sects of Zixiao Sect and Hehuan Sect, the war will kill people, if you want to kill others, others will naturally kill you, whether it is human beings or Shura, they are constantly dying, dying, and dying on this battlefield.
As for how many monks died in the battle, taking Zixiao Sect as an example, from the beginning of the war to the completion of the Qingyun defense line, the fallen monks of Zixiao Sect accounted for about thirty percent of the total number of disciples of the sect.
A powerful sect like Zixiao Sect suffered such heavy casualties, not to mention other large and small sects in the border states, and many of them even had their sects or families directly wiped out.
Most of these extermination incidents occurred in the first month when the Shura army began to attack, because no one was prepared, so before these sects could react, they were annihilated by the Shura army all over the mountains.
Some sects or families simply moved away, and they didn't want any dojo or mineral veins, so they ran away first.
They are generally small families or small sects, and because they are small, the dojos and veins they have are just like that, most of them are not looked down upon by other major sects, and it is not a pity to lose them.
However, these families and sects that have fled are not expected to end well in the future, how can the Zixiao Sect and the Hehuan Sect tolerate this kind of thing, do you think that you will let you go if you run away from the two major sects?
You think too simply, you are running away on the battlefield, who is at the front, and who is the one with the most casualties?
Therefore, they are destined to be liquidated by these two major sects in the future, and they will definitely not end well, the height of the small sect and the small faction is still not enough, and the vision is not good.
As for most of the remaining sects and families, they generally don't do this kind of thing, they stand relatively high, and they also have some vision, the most important thing is that those small families are only dozens of people, and hundreds of people are counted in many miles, and the entire continent is so big that it can be done anywhere, but other sects can't, and tens of thousands of people will move.
Can you run? Of course, you can, but where do you have to run!
All the known territories on the Chirong Continent have owners, and the same is true for all known mineral veins.
Therefore, these sects can only hold on, and of course they will also make some preparations in private, such as speeding up the collection of resources, destructively mining spirit stone mines, and making a fortune as much as possible.
For another example, a very small number of people in the sect family are selected, or they are ready to run away in advance or at any time, leaving some seeds for the sect to leave a legacy, as for whether these people will be able to complete this task in the future, it can only depend on their luck.
Of course, the resolute counterattack or resistance also caused a large number of casualties in Shura, and when the battle lasted until the eleventh year, the major sects in the five southern states could not bear it, and the casualties among the disciples of the sect were too heavy.
On the other hand, on the Shura side, no matter how much you fight, there is no less, and the Shura side naturally has losses, but it seems that the Shura side has a steady stream of supplements, and the number is not only not less, but more and more.
How can this work, it is okay to go on like this, in this case, the ancestors of the Hehuan Sect couldn't sit still in the first place, so they decided to take action.
Few people know about the first battle between the three Mahayana ancestors of the Hehuan Sect and Shura.
Mahayana monks are the top combat power in the human cultivation realm, Mahayana monks generally rarely make moves, and the last time the Hehuan Sect dispatched the Mahayana Ancestor was two hundred years ago.
Waiting to face the three ancestors, it was an asura and a five-headed jade asura, which was equivalent to the three human Mahayana against the six Shura side of the Hedao realm, and the final result was a draw, and the three Hehuan Sect ancestors returned in vain.
When the messenger of the Hehuan Sect brought this news to the Zixiao Sect, the ancestors of the Zixiao Sect were dumbfounded.
It is a fact that the human Convergence Realm can't defeat the Jade Shura of the same level, and now whenever the Jade Shura is encountered on the battlefield, the human side is responsible for dealing with the two Convergence Realms, in this case, the two sides are basically evenly matched, no one will win, and no one will suffer.
In most cases, the two sides are just putting on a show, and they can't kill each other, and the result is the same whether they fight or not.
Later, the Jade Shura on the side of the Human Merge Dao Realm and Shura simply didn't make a move, and it was enough to lock each other's qi and contain each other on the battlefield, and the battles all took place below the Merge Dao Realm.
However, this battle of the ancestors of the Hehuan Sect has completely subverted the cognition of human beings, could it be that the Jade Shura has been hiding his cultivation?
Are they that powerful?
In the human cultivation realm, it is not impossible to cross the realm to kill the enemy, because after all, there are factors such as the level of cultivation exercises, the strength of magic weapons, and other factors, but if you cross the level and fight with a Mahayana monk, it can only be said that you are looking for death.
The Mahayana period is a weakened version of the ascension period, and all Mahayana monks have experienced the ascension tribulation, which means that as long as nothing happens to them, they can steadily ascend to the upper realm.
There is no Ascension Tribulation, the last Tribulation before the ascension of human monks is the Heavenly Tribulation encountered by the Convergence Realm to the Mahayana Realm, as long as you resist this Heavenly Tribulation, then congratulations, just wait for the Ascension to the Upper Realm.
The last Heavenly Tribulation is not only a test, of course, there is also an opportunity, as long as you resist the Heavenly Tribulation, the Heavenly Dao will inevitably give back to you, and then even if you are stained with a little immortal energy, it is this little bit of immortal energy that determines mortal and immortal.
In addition, all Mahayana have one thing in common, after surviving the last heavenly tribulation, they will more or less master some of the power of the law, which is the real reliance of the Mahayana monks, even if it is only a trace of the power of the law, the following Mahayana are ants.
