Chapter 256, Raiders of Lieyang(1/2)
In just about two years, or less than two years since the secret trial, the strength of Qianshui Palace has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Originally there were only three Nascent Soul Ancestors and forty or fifty Golden Core Elders, but now there are six Nascent Soul Ancestors, not to mention Mo Xiaofan and Xiao Yu’s fourth-level demon pets, if they are also counted.
Eight powerful men at the Nascent Soul level.
And this year has passed, Tianma has grown a lot, and now it has reached the fourth advanced level, and its real combat power is comparable to that of the Nascent Soul Perfection Monk.
Mo Xiaofan's own cultivation level has also been promoted to the late Golden Core stage, and most importantly, his spiritual consciousness has made great progress and has grown to the Nascent Soul level.
With the breakthrough of spiritual consciousness, Mo Xiaofan has made great improvements in all other aspects. Now he is a true fourth-level alchemy master, fourth-level weapon refiner, and fourth-level formation mage.
At the same time, the Heavenly Moon Treasure Mirror can also emit stronger power. Even if there are other Nascent Soul masters to help, Mo Xiaofan can kill ordinary Nascent Soul monks alone with the help of the power of the treasure mirror.
"City Master Xiao, please return to Qianshui Island in half a month to attend the core meeting." Within a few days, Mo Xiaofan received a message from the Palace Master Jun Wuji. Now Mo Xiaofan's status is equal to that of Yuanying Ancestor.
Equivalent.
"City Master Xiao, thank you and Elder Zhao for refining the Baby-breaking Pill, which allowed me to finally take this step." Half a month later, Mo Xiaofan had just returned to Qianshui Island, and a plump middle-aged woman smiled.
He stepped forward and said to him.
She is Leng Yuanshuang, one of the eight original elders of Qianshui Palace. However, Mo Xiaofan saw her during the inner disciple competition a few years ago. Her appearance at that time was very different from now.
Leng Yuanshuang is over 280 years old, and she was already close to the end of her lifespan of 300 years. Therefore, before she broke through the realm of Yuanying, she already had silver hair and goosebumps on her face. She looked like she was aging.
appearance.
But now she has broken through to the Nascent Soul realm. Not only has her lifespan increased by five hundred years, but her appearance has also returned to her youth. She looks like a royal lady in her thirties, exuding infinite charm. If you haven't seen her before,
I'm afraid I can't even imagine what it looks like.
"Yes, thanks to City Master Xiao assisting Senior Sister Zhao in killing several Yuanying monks and refining the Soul-breaking Pill, we wouldn't be where we are today." Qian Qianyuan and Fei Yuanling also expressed gratitude to Mo Xiaofan.
explain.
Both of them have also returned to their middle-aged state. Their original gray hair has all turned black, their original saggy skin has regained its elasticity, and their bodies have become taller and taller, even in better condition than when they were young.
"The three ancestors are so polite." Mo Xiaofan cupped his hands and smiled.
"City Lord Xiao, you don't have to be polite in the future. Although we are ancestors in the eyes of other disciples, you can call us senior brother and senior sister. With your training speed, you can reach the Nascent Soul realm in about three to five years."
The master of the palace, Jun Wuji, waited until everyone had said hello, then smiled and said to Mo Xiaofan, forcibly turning him into a boss of the ancestor group.
"Junior Brother Xiao deserves it." Zhao Hongxiu and Wu Qingshan both nodded and smiled. They all recognized Mo Xiaofan's contribution to the sect.
"Palace Master, I didn't know that we were called here today to discuss the attack on Lieyang Sect?" Mo Xiaofan nodded and asked after sitting down.
"That's right, if our Qianshui Palace wants to develop and grow into a one-star sect, we must annex the territory of the Lieyang Sect, otherwise there will be no way to increase the number of disciples or resources.
Now we already have eight Nascent Soul combat forces, and the Lieyang Sect only has two Nascent Soul cultivators, so it is imperative to send troops to the Lieyang Sect.
However, since last year, our spies have learned that the Setting Sun Sect seems to have felt a crisis since Yang Jingtian disappeared, so they are in frequent contact with the Tianxing Sect and may want to use the Tianxing Sect to fight against us.
And Tianxing Sect is a one-star sect with an ancestor who has an out-of-body realm, and there are at least eight Nascent Soul monks. If we go head-to-head, we will definitely not be the opponent of Tianxing Sect.
So today I came to discuss with you all, how should we deal with the Lieyang Sect? Should I fight against the Tianxing Sect now and destroy the Lieyang Sect, or should I wait for the opportunity to attack a higher realm?"
Jun Wuji said to everyone.
"Palace Master, have you reached the state of perfection?" Qian Qianyuan asked in surprise.
"Half a year ago, I broke through to the realm of Nascent Soul Consummation, but I don't have any confidence that I can reach the realm of leaving the body, unless I get the fourth-level peak opening pill." Jun Wuji said with a sigh.
"Not long ago, my husband and I broke through to the late stage of Yuanying at the same time. Palace Master, there is no need to be impatient. It is better to hone in on the perfect state of Yuanying for a few more years and accumulate a strong foundation before hitting higher realms.
As for the peak level 4 pill, City Master Xiao has now been promoted to the level 4 alchemist. He thinks it will be possible to refine the peak level 4 pill in a few years. However, the main ingredient for refining the pill is Tongqiao fruit, which can only be found in secret realms outside the territory.
Yes." Wu Qingshan said with a frown.
"Extraterritorial Secret Realm, what is that place? Is it similar to the Tianyue Secret Realm?" Mo Xiaofan asked curiously.
"The secret realm outside the territory is outside the Yunyang realm. It was originally a large realm, but later suffered a devastating battle and became dilapidated.
Not only is the environment inside now harsh, there are many dangerous places, there are also monsters living in it, and there are also strong men from other walks of life in the surrounding area who are training in it.
Of course, there are also many heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the secret realms outside the territory. The World Destruction War once broke the Heart of the World, and the original energy of the Heart of the World has been leaking out, so many treasures with the original aura have appeared.
The Tongqiao fruit, which is the main ingredient for refining the refining pill, is actually a kind of spiritual fruit with the original aura. If there are multiple Tongqiao fruits, it can actually increase the chance of breaking through to the out-of-body realm.
In the secret realm outside the territory, the five most famous dangerous places are called the Five Elements Land. It is said that the strong man who destroyed the world back then intentionally left them behind.
Although everyone suspects that there is a powerful treasure in the core of the Five Elements Dangerous Land, no one, not even the strong out-of-body masters, can penetrate its core.
Therefore, if you want to explore the secret realm outside the territory, you must have at least Nascent Soul level strength, and you must form a team of several strong people, because occasionally you will encounter strong people from the outside world who are in the out-of-body realm, which is very dangerous." Jun Wuji explained to Mo Xiaofan
explain.
"So that's it. If the palace master wants to break through the realm, in addition to accumulating foundation, he must also obtain the fruit of enlightenment. In other words, it is imperative to reach the secret realm outside the territory.
However, the Palace Master has just broken through to Nascent Soul Consummation, and at least has to settle for many years before reaching a higher realm, so there is no rush to go to the secret realm outside the territory for the time being.
Now we in Qianshui Palace have to deal with the Lieyang Sect, mainly because we are worried that they will collude with the Tianxing Sect and get support from the strong men of the Tianxing Sect, so we can also contact the Sky Splitting Sword Sect and other sects, as long as someone can restrain the Tianxing Sect from leaving the body.
If you are strong, we will have a chance to destroy the Lieyang Sect.
But if our Qianshui Palace wants to be promoted to a one-star sect, we must wait until the palace master breaks through to a higher realm. Therefore, we can first attack and seize the peripheral strategic locations of Lieyang Sect near the endless sea, and then look for opportunities to kill them.
Those who are strong in the Nascent Soul should not rush to destroy the Lieyang Sect all at once.
One year later, I can take my two senior brothers and sisters to the secret realm outside the territory, and I will definitely be able to find the Acupoint-opening Fruit for the Palace Master."
Mo Xiaofan thought for a while and said that in fact, when he heard that there was a dangerous place of Five Elements in the outer secret realm, an idea came to his mind, so he had to go to the outer secret realm to see the situation.
"What Junior Brother Xiao said is reasonable. We can first let the disciples who have just broken through the Golden Core Realm practice with the Lieyang Sect. The other three junior brothers and sisters should not show up for the time being and practice in secret to wait for the opportunity." Wu Qingshan nodded and said.
"Palace Master, everyone, I actually have some ideas. The three senior brothers and sisters can disguise themselves and sneak into the Tianxing Sect territory secretly, looking for opportunities to attack some of the top officials of the Tianxing Sect, causing chaos, making the Tianxing Sect exhausted, and even ignoring the blazing sun.
Zong." Mo Xiaofan said with an idea.
"But there is danger in doing this. If the out-of-body ancestors of the Tianxing Sect are provoked, the three ancestors will be too dangerous." Jun Wuji's eyes lit up, but then he thought about it and shook his head.
"Then change the strategy and specifically intercept the teams coming to aid Lieyang Sect from Tianxing Sect, look for opportunities to kill their Nascent Soul experts, and cultivate more Nascent Soul experts for our Qianshui Palace." Mo Xiaofan came up with another idea.
explain.
"That's okay. I have one more thing to say. I still have two Broken Infant Pills left here. I originally wanted to wait until a few Yuan elders have made great contributions before giving them to them, but now our Qianshui Palace is the one who employs people.
Now, we can train two Nascent Soul experts first, do you have any opinions?" Jun Wuji nodded in agreement, and then said to everyone.
"Palace Master, I wonder which two Yuan elders are you planning to give to first?" Zhao Hongxiu asked.
There were originally eight great Yuan elders in Qianshui Palace. Later, Qian Qianyuan, Fei Yuanling and Leng Yuanshuang all broke through to the Yuanying realm, leaving five remaining, namely Zhou Yuanlang, Hua Yuanzhen, Hu Yuanhua, Fu Tianyuan and Liu Yuanshan.
However, in the past two years, among the original late-stage Jindan powerhouses in Qianshui Palace, Zhao Yuanchen and Qi Yuanfeng, as well as Wei Yuandi and Li Yuanqing, have broken through to the realm of Jindan perfection, and there are nine great Yuan elders.
Of course, although the next four people who have made breakthroughs have reached their realm, they still need some time to settle and polish before they have the opportunity to break through to a higher realm.
"Among the original five Yuan elders, Senior Brother Zhou and Senior Brother Hua are both over 250 years old, and the other three Senior Brothers are younger. I want to give Senior Brother Zhou and Senior Brother Hua first.
I believe that the other three senior brothers and Elder Yuan behind them will not wait too long, because we have Junior Brother Xiao, a fourth-level alchemist, and we will not be short of Po Ying Dan in the future." Jun Wuji said.
"Junior Brother Zhou, I guess everyone will have no objections, but Junior Brother Hua's merits are still a little behind. Compared with the other three junior brothers, there is a big gap. I'm worried that the other three junior brothers will be unconvinced." Wu Qingshan heard this.
said with a frown.
"Senior brother, this is how I think about it. In the past, our sect was in a backward situation, so everything depended on merit. But now that our Qianshui Palace is prospering, we can consider more senior senior brothers.
After all, others can afford to wait and have more opportunities. At the same time, I will also do a good job in ideological work for the other three senior brothers, and I believe they will understand." Jun Wuji thought for a while and said.
"It's fine for the Palace Master to make the final decision on these matters, as long as it doesn't cause dissatisfaction within the sect and everyone understands." Wu Qingshan nodded and said.
The Lieyang Sect has a unique advantage. It has a territory of 100,000 square kilometers on the mainland, including five cities and eight mountain ranges. In addition, it also occupies hundreds of islands in the endless sea. It is for this reason that it became the same as Qianshui Palace.
competitor's.
"It has been more than two years, and there is still no news about the third child. It seems that something is wrong with him." In the Lieyang Sect, the sect leader Yang Dingtian and his brother Yang Haotian were sitting across from each other drinking tea and chatting. His expression showed
The look of worry.
"I'm afraid something is really wrong. In recent years, Qingfeng City has gradually changed its style. Our disciples have been suppressed there. I'm afraid Qingfeng City has also paid the price for what happened back then." Yang Haotian nodded and said.
"Although Qianshui Palace has not taken the initiative to attack us in the past two years, according to the news from the spies, many of their young disciples have broken through to the golden elixir realm, and there are dozens of them. It seems that they have obtained in the Tianyue Secret Realm
There are a lot of benefits." Yang Dingtian said.
"Brother, do you want to call your uncle out? If Qianshui Palace comes to invade, they have three Nascent Soul experts. Without one, we may not be able to compete with them." Yang Haotian said.
"No need for the time being. My uncle is not far away from the end. Let him retreat at ease at this time. If he can't break through in the end, then let him participate in the final battle. If he fights Qianshui Palace to the death, both sides will suffer losses. We can't let them recover.
Vitality." Yang Dingtian said coldly.
"How is the situation with contacting Tianxing Sect? Are they willing to send Nascent Soul experts to help us?" Yang Haotian asked again.
"Although it will be useful to use Tianxing Sect to deal with Qianshui Palace, it is easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away. I have not made a final decision yet. However, Fenglei Sect is interested in some islands in Qianshui Palace, or we can first contact them
Cooperate with Fenglei Sect."
"Fenglei Sect is probably quite ambitious. Their overall strength is still higher than that of Lieyang Sect and Qianshui Palace. It is said that they already have five Nascent Soul Ancestors. I'm afraid they are thinking of going one step further?"
"If we can deal with Qianshui Palace, so what if we give up some territory to Fenglei Sect? If we can obtain Qianshui Islands, we will have inexhaustible resources in the entire endless sea area." Yang Dingtian said somewhat enthusiastically.
"Buzz..."
At this moment, a communication talisman in his storage equipment started to vibrate. When Yang Dingtian's divine mind sank into it and he took a look, his face suddenly turned ugly.
