Chapter 234: The Spirit Elite Faction is coming
Lingshan's side has become calm, although there are a lot of loose cultivators from all directions every day, but under the order maintained by the Cultivation Federation, there is no major disturbance. As for the small disputes caused by the meeting of the enemies, they were also eliminated with the intervention of the Xiulian.
However, the situation in Beihai is also becoming more and more chaotic, and the scattered cultivators who came from outside know that due to the battle between the Lingying faction and the Lieyutang, many surrounding forces have joined it. Even these casual cultivators, who usually just eat for a living, will inevitably be forcibly recruited into the camps of the two sides to act as cannon fodder for both sides. Therefore, a large number of loose cultivators secretly ran out of the territory of the Lingying Sect and the Lieyutang and came to Lingshan to seek refuge.
However, this situation lasted for almost three months, and it also aroused the vigilance of the Lingying faction and the Imperial Hall. The scattered cultivators who had stayed in the territory of both sides had already run away, and the rest were only thousands, less than one-tenth of what they were under normal circumstances. If this continues, there should be no cannon fodder available on both sides, and it will not be far before the disciples of the sect go into battle shirtless.
The Lingying Sect and the Lie Yutang began to set up control on the periphery of the territory of both sides to capture the escaped loose cultivators, but because the territory of both sides was too large, even if they sent out all the people in their sects, it would be difficult to cover the entire range, so they still lost a large number of loose cultivators, leaving only hundreds of loose cultivators in the base camp with other calculations in their hearts.
In the camp of the Lingying Sect, a thin monk with long hair and a hairpin was sitting upright, and a young monk in the foundation building period kneeling below, who was reporting to him: "Patriarch, there are only 500 loose cultivators left in our camp now, and the rest have run away. According to rumors, they all ran to a place called Lingshan. ”
The thin monk snorted coldly: "Is there any place in this North Sea that is safer than my big camp? These lowly people with a small eye are really toasting and not eating and drinking! What kind of place is that spiritual mountain you are talking about, and why do they all have to run there?"
The young monk replied: "Patriarch, the disciple also asked the following loose cultivators, according to them, this spiritual mountain suddenly appeared a few years ago, and the propaganda is for the well-being of all the monks in Beihai, and to unite all the monks to fight against the crisis that threatens the survival of Beihai, and established an organization called the Beihai Monks Alliance. However, judging from the disciples, this cultivation alliance is clearly aimed at a big sect like our Lingying Sect!"
The thin monk pondered for a while: "Then do you know where this Spirit Mountain Cultivator is?"
The young monk hurriedly replied: "Ancestor, the disciple has also inquired, this Spirit Mountain is not a secret location, it is just a hundred thousand miles away to the east, just between our Spirit Ying Sect and the Lie Imperial Hall. "This young monk is indeed right, in fact, judging from the map, the location of Lingshan is clearly in the middle of the five major sects, and there is no bias anywhere, so he has not been approached by these sects for so long. After all, the location of Lingshan is the outermost part of their own territory for each major sect, and if they go to Lingshan, then it will inevitably make the other four sects vigilant, so it will not be the direction of their development at all.
The thin monk waved his hand lightly: "Okay, this group of people really doesn't take my Lingying faction seriously, and they are openly provoking us so close, so they are not afraid that we will serve them in one pot." Since that's the case, then don't blame me Lingying for being ruthless. You go down and gather a team of heroic martial arts and Taoist soldiers, a team of inner disciples, go and bring me the spiritual mountain, and then tie up all the scattered cultivators gathered there for me. ”
The young monk hurriedly led the order out, the corners of his mouth were still smiling, and he said in his heart: "It's finally time for me to get ahead!" This young disciple is the disciple of the thin monk just now, that thin monk is Elder Du, one of the seven Yuanying elders in the Lingying Sect, Xiuwei is in the middle of the seven Yuanying elders, and he is the leader of this battle with the Lieyutang. As for his apprentice grandson, his name is Du Min, in fact, according to the bloodline, he is the great-great-grandson of Elder Du, because he has a good cultivation talent, so he was taken by Elder Du from the family and accepted as a disciple grandson.
Du Min came to the camp where the heroic Taoist soldiers were stationed proudly, showed his token to the gatekeeper, and then ordered: "My ancestor Du said, let me come here to lead a team of Taoist soldiers with me." ”
The gatekeeper verified that it was indeed Elder Du's token, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly invited Du Min to the camp and asked him to wait for a while. After a while, the gatekeeper brought in a burly man who was wrapped in iron armor and didn't even show his face, and said, "Senior brother, this person is the captain of the Dao soldiers you led this time, and the Dao soldiers have all been lined up, just waiting for you to give orders." ”
Du Min took a sip of the spiritual tea on the table, glanced at the strong man lightly, and then said to the gatekeeper: "Why does this person look like he can't even speak, and he won't salute when he sees me?"
The gatekeeper hurriedly explained: "Senior brother, you have misunderstood, these Dao soldiers of our Lingying Sect, the soldiers at the bottom have no self-thinking at all, only these squad leaders still have some thinking ability, but they are not the same as us normal people, except for marching and fighting, they don't understand anything else." ”
A look of embarrassment flashed on Du Min's face, he really didn't know the characteristics of the Heroic Martial Dao Soldier, although with his identity as the disciple of the Yuanying Elder Sect, he was indeed able to access many secrets in the sect. However, the Heroic Martial Dao Soldier is a secret weapon that is not revealed at all in ordinary times, and only the Yuanying elders can fully grasp all the situation, even the Jindan disciples of the inner gate know very little, let alone Du Min, a small foundation building monk.
His face turned red, and then he took a sip of tea to cover it up, and then said lightly: "Duokou, of course I know about it, but I just want to see if this person is really as rumored, and there is no human thinking at all." Okay, I won't talk nonsense with you, I'll take these Dao soldiers away, and I have to go to the inner gate to recruit a group of inner disciples. ”
Amid the groveling praise of the gatekeepers, Du Min walked out of the camp with a group of heroic warriors. The heroic martial arts soldiers behind him, although they are called Dao soldiers, are actually not much different from puppets, they are all top-secret weapons that the Lingying Sect has refined through unknown means in recent years, specifically to deal with the Lie Yutang. But now, although the battle with the Lie Yutang tends to be white-hot, both sides are still in the tentative stage, and the ones sent out are all scattered cultivators led by the disciples of the inner sect, and they have not lost many disciples of their own sect, so these Taoist soldiers have not yet had a chance to appear, and they did not expect that the first time they appeared in front of the world, it would actually be for such an organization that suddenly appeared in the Lingshan Cultivation Federation.
Du Min glanced at the Dao soldiers behind him from time to time, and found that these Dao soldiers could indeed be called "heroic", not only when they flew with magic weapons, the marching speed of the queue did not change at all, it was consistent, and even the formation was not chaotic at all, and it was uniform. However, he also wondered in his heart why these people were covered in steel, and his spiritual sense could not penetrate the iron armor to peek into the expressions of the people inside.
He led the heroic warriors across most of the island to the camp where the inner disciples were stationed. This small island is located at the junction of the Lingying Sect and the Lie Yutang less than 3,000 miles, the island is deserted, and it was only a few years ago that the Lingying Sect transformed it into a five-grade spiritual land, and a large army was stationed here. The inner disciples are naturally stationed in a different place from ordinary outer disciples and loose cultivators, this camp is the place with the strongest aura in the entire island, and a lot of pavilions and pavilions have been built, and from the outside, you can see that there are many Jindan monks walking around.
When Du Min came to the gate of the camp, two disciples of the foundation building period stopped him, and before he could speak, he saw Du Min take out Elder Du's token from his arms, and the two hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "Senior brother forgive my sins, where our duty lies, and ask senior brother to explain the intention." ”
Du Min didn't make it difficult for them, and said bluntly: "I am on the orders of Elder Du, and I have specially come here to recruit a team of inner disciples to go with me. "It's not that he is following the rules, it's just that after all, he is only a monk in the foundation building period, and when he enters the camp in front of him, he will inevitably be treated differently by the Jindan disciples of the inner gate, so he doesn't go in to find Qishou, and waits directly outside.
After about a quarter of an hour, thirty Jindan monks came out of the gate of the camp, led by a nun dressed in a long lake-green dress. The female cultivator frowned, her face was cold, and after seeing Du Min, she said, "You are here on Elder Du's orders?"
Du Min bowed and said, "Exactly, this senior sister... ”
Before he could finish speaking, the female cultivator waved his hand and interrupted him, saying, "You don't need to call Senior Sister, there is a difference between you and me inside and outside, so you can just call me Senior Uncle." ”
Du Min took a deep breath, feeling indignant in his heart, as the great-great-grandson of Elder Du, or the disciple grandson personally accepted by Elder Du, it was really embarrassing to be belittled like this. But he also knew that everything in the Lingying Sect was based on the realm, and even if he was a disciple of the head of the sect, it was impossible for him to enter the inner gate with the cultivation of the foundation building period. As long as he is not in the inner gate, then he has to call the inner disciple uncle, this is the rule.
Du Min spit out the turbidity in his chest and said, "Uncle Shi, under the order of Elder Du, I came here to recruit a team of inner disciples... Uncles, come with me. Then he took the token in his arms.
The female cultivator nodded, took the token of Elder Du in Du Min's hand, verified it, and confirmed that it was indeed Elder Du's token, so she returned it to Du Min, and said, "Okay, since you have Elder Du's token, then I and the other thirty people will belong to you." ”
Du Min thought that the nun would make it difficult, but she didn't expect to be so easy to speak, so she hurriedly said, "Okay, please also ask Uncle Shi to lead the team to set off with me." ”
Then, Du Min led a team of heroic martial arts soldiers and a team of inner disciples to set off from the camp and head to Lingshan. What he didn't know was that the inner disciples behind him privately talked about him, saying that Du Min, as Elder Du's disciple, actually cultivated so low, and observing his dantian with spiritual sense, he could see that his current cultivation was forcibly pulled up by relying on a lot of elixirs, which was really wasteful.
These people wanted to say more to ridicule Du Min, but when the female cultivator in front of them turned their heads and glared, they all died down. This cold female cultivator's name is Chun Yu Xia, and she is the person with the highest status and cultivation among these inner disciples, and she is also the personal disciple of a Yuanying elder in the sect, so she is very majestic among everyone. But it's actually strange to say, since he is a personal disciple of Elder Yuanying, why would he get involved in the battle with Lie Yutang, after all, it is not yet an emergency moment, how could an inner disciple of Chun Yuxia's status not be the first person to be sent. Like other inner disciples, either their own cultivation is not high, that is, the middle or even early stage of Jindan, and all of them are apprentices accepted by the previous generation of inner disciples of the Lingying Sect, or registered disciples accepted by Elder Yuanying, and they are not a figure at all in front of Chun Yuxia.
On the way to Lingshan, because Du Min's cultivation had not yet reached Jindan, he had to ride on the magic weapon of the captain of the Heroic Martial Arts Army. Along the way, he found opportunities to talk to Chun Yuxia from time to time, wanting to explore various things about Chun Yuxia, but Chun Yuxia dealt with it with a few words. But he was not discouraged, but aroused the pride in his heart, and said that he wanted to get Chun Yuxia a strategy. He didn't just fall in love with Chun Yu Xia's good face, but also secretly heard Chun Yu Xia's identity and status clearly, and felt that it was a help to him, so he wanted to catch Chun Yu Xia. If the matter succeeded, then he, as Elder Du's disciple grandson and great-great-grandson, plus the twin cultivators of another Yuanying Elder's personal disciple, would not be sideways in the Lingying Sect.
However, when they were thousands of miles away from Lingshan, Du Min's thoughts were unsuccessful, and Chun Yuxia still ignored him, and clearly didn't take him in his eyes at all. This made Du Min angry and hateful, and he couldn't help but have the idea of harming Chun Yuxia in his heart.
On the side of Lingshan, the people of the Sword Pavilion also discovered their team of unknown people through the reconnaissance formation arranged, and the stewards of the Sword Pavilion ordered the closure of the Lingshan, and everyone was not allowed to enter or leave, and they were ready to fight.
When Du Min and the others got closer and closer to Lingshan, they found that there was a floating island in the air larger than Lingshan floating on Lingshan, and they couldn't help but be a little surprised: What kind of place is this, why is there such a magical island?
It's no wonder that these people are surprised, after all, in the North Sea, there is really no place where you have found a floating island like Fangcun Mountain, and the size is so huge, and the mountains are surrounded by spiritual clouds, which is daunting.
