The center of the Lingwu Immortal Cultivation Realm is undoubtedly the Lingwu Mountain Range.

The heaven and earth in this Lingwu Mountain Range are full of spiritual energy, there are a lot of minerals in the mountains, and the elixirs and demon beasts in the deep mountains and old forests are innumerable, and it is the base of the seven major immortal sects and the twelve minor immortal sects. These seven major and twelve minor immortal cultivation sects are the pillars of the entire spiritual root immortal cultivation world. The life and death of these sects also directly means the rise and fall of the Spirit Mist Immortal Realm.

In addition to the major immortal cultivation sects in the Lingwu Mountain Range, there is also an extremely important place in the Lingwu Immortal Cultivation Realm, and that is Lingwu City. Lingwu City is on the western plateau of the Southern Liang Kingdom, east of the Lingwu Mountains. It is separated from the Lingwu Mountain Range by only a large canyon, and it is the birthplace of the Lingwu Immortal Cultivation Realm.

But its real value is not its historical value.

The reason why Spirit Mist City is important is because there are two forbidden formations set up by the Ancient Yuan Infant Cultivators, one large and one small.

The Great Forbidden Formation is a large-scale light shield barrier, once opened, it can put the entire Spirit Mist City, from the sky to the ground, under the protection of the light mask, and it is infinitely powerful.

If the big prohibition is broken, then it can only retreat to the Immortal Yuan Hall and rely on the small forbidden formation in the Immortal Yuan Hall to defend it.

This small forbidden formation is actually the labyrinth of the Immortal Yuan Palace, with a total of eight layers, and one layer is more powerful than the other. Controlled by a monk guarding the array on the eighth floor, there are countless monks hidden in the labyrinth. Ye Qin had entered the labyrinth before, and he was teleported out before he reached the third layer of the earth palace. Only by reaching the center of the eighth layer can it be possible to break the forbidden formation of Spirit Mist City and completely capture Spirit Mist City.

The formations of these two seats have been reinforced by the eight Shangji Yuan Infant Monks before and after, and their power has reached the point of earth-shattering.

The people who cultivate immortals originated from martial artists, and most of them are skilled in the art of war. Therefore, this Lingwu City has been given a "military" meaning since it was built. It is a barrier, guarding the first important town of the Spirit Mist Immortal Cultivation Realm. In peacetime, it was a place for monks to trade and in wartime, and in wartime it was a place for garrison defense.

If other cultivators from the Immortal Cultivation Realm invaded the Immortal Mist Cultivation Realm on a large scale, then Lingwu City was the target that must be taken. If you can't take here, you can't talk about attacking the mountain gate of the Spirit Mist Cultivation Immortal Sect.

After Ye Qin waited for Uncle Chen to leave, he immediately left the Immortal Yuan Hall and walked on the streets of Lingwu City.

At this time, the streets of Lingwu City were crowded with people, and they were extremely busy. Even the sky around Spirit Mist City was full of flying sword magic weapons, and the light emitted by the flying sky was endless.

Compared with the chaotic land of Fang City, where there are few people in the depression, the situation here is not the same.

Ye Qin glanced over and saw that there were at least hundreds or thousands of hurried male and female monks on a street. In the entire Spirit Mist City, I am afraid that there are no less than ten thousand people, and the population is several times more than before. Moreover, the number of monks pouring into the city is still increasing.

Ye Qin naturally knew why.

With the large-scale invasion of the Heavenly Dome Plain, Wanyue Lake, and the Chaotic Land, the large and small immortal cultivation families and scattered cultivators in the countries of the Lingwu Immortal Cultivation Realm were weak and unable to resist, and they began to retreat from the original land and retreat to Lingwu City.

Only a place like Spirit Mist City has enough defense power to ensure their safety. If it is a disciple from the sect, you can even go directly to the mountain gate of the Beimen sect, which is safer. And those ordinary monks can only stay in Spirit Mist City.

Therefore, it is only natural that the number of monks in Lingwu City has skyrocketed.

Although Ye Qin was in a hurry to go to the Southern Liang Kingdom at the moment, he did not rush over recklessly.

Because he was very depressed, he found one thing on the notices posted everywhere in the city—all the disciples of the Lingwu Cultivation Immortal Sect, the family disciples, and the scattered cultivators, after seeing the notice, they had to take the initiative to go to the management office of the Preparatory Sect, the family management office, the management office of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance and other places in the city to receive the task token, stay in the city, wait for the dispatch of the Lingwu Alliance, and undertake the backup tasks at any time. Those who do not listen to the command and act without authorization are directly regarded as the rebellion of the Spirit Mist Cultivation Immortal Realm, and they will be killed.

Ye Qin appeared in the city, of course, it couldn't be regarded as not seeing the notices posted all over the city.

Moreover, when he appeared in the city, he had already been known by the Qingdanmen Elder Li Hongxi in the main hall. Ye Qin didn't dare to risk becoming a rebel and act on his own. He could only go to the management office of the Qingdan Gate in the city first and receive a task token. Once assigned to a mission, take the token and join up with the other monks.

Ye Qin received the task token, but instead settled down, stayed in the city for the time being, and was no longer in a hurry to leave for the Southern Liang Kingdom immediately.

After all, Shi Hanyang and the others had already gone to Nanliang Kingdom a year ago, and they would definitely arrive in Lujiabao before him, and it was useless for him to be in a hurry for a day or two. It's better to prepare the items you need in the city first to strengthen your strength.

He rented a room at a high price in Lingwu City, and spent three days refining several bottles of hundreds of medium-grade Guiyuan Dan and Peiyuan Dan, and sold them in the city's markets, streets, restaurants, inns and other places, in exchange for some medium-grade spirit stones and medium-grade rune paper that he urgently needed.

There are a lot of monks inside and outside this city, and the flow of people is frequent, and now no one will care about the origin of the elixir in his hand, and no one dares to casually fight the idea of a third-layer monk who has built a foundation.

The elixir, an item that enhances soil cultivation, is a sought-after item, and it was sold out in a short period of time.

While Ye Qin was selling elixirs in the inn, he also talked with some monks who were doing business to learn about the war in the past two years. From the mouths of these monks, Ye Qin knew that the war in the past two years had not been smooth.

The overall strength of the Spirit Mist Immortal Cultivation Realm is the strongest, surpassing any of the Heavenly Dome Plain and Wanyue Lake alone in the Immortal Cultivation Realm. However, it was attacked by the Heavenly Dome Origin Monk, the Wanyue Lake Monk, and the Chaos Land Monk, but it was in a weak position, and it has been in a state of exhaustion, and has not been able to make a strong counterattack so far. At least more than half of the countries controlled by the Spirit Mist Cultivators were taken away by the cultivators of the three major immortal cultivation realms. Only some of the countries around Lingwu City that are close to each other have not yet been conquered.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this war has been fought in retreat. I'm afraid that in less than a year and a half, the cultivators of the three major immortal cultivation realms of the Heavenly Dome Plain, Wanyue Lake, and the Land of Chaos will be able to come to the Spirit Mist City and have a decisive battle.

Ye Qin was speechless about this.

He had not studied the art of war, and he was not very proficient in warfare, so naturally he could not say anything high. There are so many Jindan Ancestors in the Beimen Sect, and there are masters with superior wisdom, so he doesn't need to worry about the war.

However, it seems that in a short period of time, the Southern Liang Kingdom should still be under the control of the Spirit Mist Immortal Realm. The enemy monks did not dare to come to the vicinity of this Spirit Mist City easily. After Ye Qin carefully inquired about the movements of the Beifang forces, he finally determined that it was relatively safe for him to go to the Southern Liang Kingdom now.

He had a year to think about how to snatch the spirit fruit from Lu Jiabao and Shi Hanyang's hands. Otherwise, the Southern Liang Kingdom will be occupied by the enemy, and it will be very dangerous for him to go again.

Ye Qin sold a few bottles of elixir, prepared some spirit stones and rune paper that might be used, and after learning about the recent war in the immortal cultivation realm, he came to the management office of Qingdanmen, found a senior brother who was responsible for assigning tasks, and took the initiative to ask for the task.

Among the famous factions, it is inevitable that there will be some shady transactions in private. As long as you can afford the price, there is nothing that can't be done. The same goes for task assignments. This point was clear to Ye Qin when he was still a disciple of the Qingdan Sect's Qi cultivation period.

Ye Qin only used thirty Guiyuan Pills at the cost of making the senior brother in charge of affairs become extremely cordial in the blink of an eye. Ye Qin naturally also received a task that he was very satisfied with: to inspect the territory of the Southern Liang Kingdom for three months to avoid the enemy spies from infiltrating.

This task was extremely easy, and during this period, Ye Qin could do whatever he wanted in Nanliang.

Ye Qin received this inspection mission, left Lingwu City openly, and set off for Southern Liang Kingdom. For the sake of prudence, he did not immediately go to Lujiabao in the Southern Liang Kingdom, but went to Qingzhou in the Southern Liang Kingdom.

He knew very little about the Lu family of the Southern Liang Kingdom, except that there was a Jindan-level monk in the family, and more than a dozen foundation building monks, who were the behind-the-scenes leaders of the Southern Liang Kingdom, he knew almost nothing about the situation in other aspects.

Just like that, I went to Lujiabao, and I didn't know what would happen.

Ye Qin went to Qingzhou, and first went to meet Zhang Xuan, Zhang Qiao, Xia Laohei, Fan Jiasheng and others from the Northern Twenty Gang. I came to visit my old friends. Second, the Zhang family and the others are local monks in the Southern Liang Kingdom, and they should know a lot about the situation of the Lu family, and he can find out the situation of the Lu family from the mouths of the Zhang family and others, and he has a good bottom in his heart.

Ye Qin controlled a cloud and flew in the sky.

Along the way, Ye Qin met many foundation building monks who flew with the sword, most of whom were from the Bei Sect family to go out on missions.

When these foundation-building monks saw a dark cloud drifting by, they didn't react, just thinking it was an ordinary dark cloud drifting with the wind.

Ye Qin was secretly happy, the concealment of this dark cloud barrier was really very good, and the possibility of being discovered was greatly reduced.

This went to Qingzhou, Nanliang Kingdom, and arrived in two days.

In the suburbs near Qingzhou City, Ye Qin put away the magic weapon, floated to the ground, and then followed the carriage caravan on the official road post road and entered this Qingzhou City without hurrying. The prosperity of Qingzhou City is almost no different from three years ago, but it seems to be more prosperous.

The great war between the immortal cultivation realms did not affect the lives of the secular mortals in the Southern Liang Kingdom.

Ye Qin was dressed in a green shirt and dressed in an ordinary way, followed the caravan into the city, found an inn near the city gate, and inquired about the location of the main altar of the North Twenty Gang.

To Ye Qin's surprise, the North Twenty Gang is now the largest gang in Qingzhou, which is known to everyone, and in just three years, it has swept the gangs in the southeast and northwest of Qingzhou, and built a luxury mansion covering several hectares in the most valuable area of Qingzhou City as the main altar.

Copper for the door, two finely carved stone lions are prepared for the town, a row of twenty first-class men with capable and cold faces, and their waist and treasure knives stand with their chests held high at the door. The first-class masters in the rivers and lakes stand at the door, which can only happen in the top large-scale gangs on the rivers and lakes. With this pomp and circumstance, ordinary people don't dare to approach it at all.

When Ye Qin appeared at the door of this mansion, he smiled faintly.
