Chapter 555: Deploying troops

After receiving the message from Patriarch Jin, Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan stayed in Hanyan in Heishan, and they were about to return to the sect.

Han Yan has reached the ninth level of the Purple Mansion. He is supported by two golden elixir-level monks, Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan. He also has fifth-level magic weapons to protect him. His magical powers are no weaker than those of Patriarch Liang back then.

Moreover, in order to resist the invasion of monsters some time ago, Zhang Zhixuan had transferred some people back from the three southeastern counties to strengthen the defense of Black Mountain. Now there are more than 50 foundation-building monks on Black Mountain. Even if the fifth-level monsters come to attack, relying on Black Mountain The defensive formation can also delay for a few days, waiting for the rescue of Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan.

The two of them rushed to Qingyang Mountain day and night, and immediately came to Jin Patriarch's Cave to discuss matters.

Seeing that Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan had made further progress in their cultivation, Patriarch Jin also had a little more confidence on his face, but he still looked sad.

"Last time, there was news from the matchmaker that there were three fifth-level monsters that ambushed her. Among them, an early-stage fifth-level poisonous dragon was the smartest. This poisonous dragon was very unfamiliar and was not at all what we expected. It seemed like it should It was the Poison Dragon Pond Demon King who chose to intervene.

If the Demon King wants to take action, although our strength is greatly increased compared to a hundred years ago, we will not be able to defend the mountain gate at all, so we can only make plans in advance. "

Seeing the worried look on Patriarch Jin's face, Zhang Zhixuan gave him reassurance and said: "Don't worry, Patriarch, there is news from Tianchan Cave that Master Liu has returned to the Southern Wilderness. If Qingtong Demon King dares to take action, it will be natural for Liu Zhang to take action. The door will deal with it.”

Hearing this news that could change the situation, a trace of joy instantly appeared in Patriarch Jin's heart. Ever since the poisonous dragon pond dragon appeared, heavy pressure has been on his shoulders. Without the support of the Yuanying Stage monks, facing the Demon King's advance, relying solely on the power of Qingxuan Sect, it would be impossible to withstand it.

"I have no information in Black Mountain. This time the monsters invade. Apart from us, how is the situation with Senior Yuan of Tongxuan Mountain and Ancestor Xu of Baihong Mountain?"

Ancestor Jin said: "Yuan Daoyou's place is still the same. She is still facing her old rival, the One-horned Owl. On the other side of Baihong Mountain, the intruders are still four fifth-level monsters. At Guiyuan Mountain Matchmaker's place, however, Three fifth-level monsters appeared. In addition to the familiar Wild Boar King, there were also an early-level fifth-level poisonous dragon and a mid-level fifth-level egret.

Moreover, Yunling Mountain will not be able to support it for half a day. There must be a fifth-level monster besieging Yunling Mountain. There are already four fifth-level monsters appearing near Guiyuan Mountain. The matchmaker is injured now. If the monster besieges, Although there was a fifth-level mountain-protecting formation, Guiyuan Mountain simply could not hold on. "

After listening to Patriarch Jin’s introduction, Zhang Zhixuan’s face became a little solemn.

"It seems that this time our opponents are not reckless people like wild boars and apes. This feeling reminds me of when I was hunting the green dragon. This time the intelligence of the fifth-level monsters commanding the army is no weaker than that of human monks. , and they can even continue to deploy strategies to encircle the point and fight for reinforcements, trying to trick us into taking the bait.”

Patriarch Jin nodded and said: "We thought about it together. There is a mid-range teleportation array over there at the Matchmaker, which can be teleported directly to Tianchan Cave. If it comes to the last moment, we can also give up Guiyuan Mountain with the backbone of our subordinates in exchange for the protection of Daoist Liu.

After all, the monsters are not smart enough, and their communication with each other is not as convenient as ours. As long as we choose our timing well, we can seize the opportunity to turn defeat into victory.

The top priority is that we should clench our fists, hunt down a fifth-level monster as soon as possible, and lift the siege of Xuantong Mountain and Baihong Mountain. It is best to gather the power of the three parties to relieve the danger of Yuanshan and force the Southern Wilderness monster back. "

"When we leave, who will hold on to the sect's spiritual veins?"

Patriarch Jin said: "If the Poison Dragon Pond monsters attack in large numbers, I plan to rely mainly on Zhongxuan and Qingyang Mountains to hold on. I plan to leave Qingyang Mountain to Zi Yan and send Zhou Zijian to assist, and cooperate with Wei Bohan and Wei Jinwen The two Zifus, plus a large number of Qi-training and foundation-building monks, were enough for them to defend Qingyang Mountain.

I plan to have Wuya stationed here at Zhongxuan Mountain, plus Wang Chengxiang and Zhang Huangyang to assist. Besides, Zhongxuan and Qingyang are connected by teleportation arrays. Even if two armies of fifth-level monsters come at once, relying on their seven purple The masters of the government, coupled with the support of a large number of low-level monks, can also maintain the kung fu for three to five days. "

Zhang Zhixuan thought deeply for a moment and said: "Since we are preparing for the worst, I think we might as well give up all the fourth-level spiritual veins such as Shuangjiao Mountain, Jiaohefang, Tuoshan, Huayang Mountain, Tanshan, and Shiya Mountain.

Zhao Xinlian from Shuangjiao Mountain had died in the battle in Nanhuang, and You Nianwei also went to Tianchan Cave, which was impossible to defend.

This time the demonic beasts invaded, nine fifth-level demonic beasts have been dispatched before and after. I am afraid that Poison Dragon Pond has already dispatched more than half of the demonic beasts. I think there are at least three or four fifth-level demonic beasts that have not appeared. Wu Siheng is isolated in Jiaohefang. Without support, it is difficult to withstand the attack of the monster army.

Kang is the only crane in Ganshan Mountain, but Han Wangpeng in Huayang Mountain is the horn of each other. However, they were relatively close to Guiyuan Mountain and would be attacked by fifth-level monsters at any time, so they should evacuate as soon as possible. Shiya Mountain is too far away from the sect, and Wang Jingcheng, who has just opened the Zifu alone, cannot be of much use. "

Both Zhang Zhixuan and Ancestor Jin knew very well that once they chose to shrink, in addition to the stationed Zifu and Ji Zhu, a considerable number of Qi-training monks would be abandoned in the Southern Wilderness. If they wanted to escape from the beast tide, they would basically have a narrow escape.

During the last monster chaos, the sect abandoned Jiaohefang. Not only did the monks stationed there suffer heavy losses, but the mortal towns near Jiaohefang were also not saved. Tens of thousands of people became food for the monsters.

Fortunately, the development time of Ganshan and Huayang Mountains was not long, only about a Jiazi.

These spiritual veins, except for Guiyuan Mountain, which has tens of thousands of mortals, there are not many people on Teng Mountain and Huayang Mountain.

On the contrary, Tuo Mountain and Shiya Mountain have been operated by the sect for many years, and there are already many towns nearby. The development is relatively mature and has gathered hundreds of thousands of people.

Once they choose to give up, it will be a great loss for Qingxuan Sect.

Ancestor Jin knows that once Tuo Mountain and Shiya Mountain are abandoned, it will inevitably cause unrest in the sect. The cultivators from these two spiritual mountains will inevitably be alienated from the sect. It is better to let them persist. Even if they cannot defend it at that time, they can transfer their hatred to the Nanhuang monsters.

"Jiaohefang can be abandoned. Since the last monster rebellion, Jiaohefang was lost. Although it has been peaceful for a hundred years, there are not many mortals there. Without the burden of mortals, the cultivators can easily withdraw. Taking advantage of the short calm now, we can send a message to Wu Siheng to let them retreat to Black Mountain and help Han Yan defend Black Mountain.

If we want to be absolutely safe in Tengshan and Huayang Mountain, we need Jindan-stage cultivators to support us. This is up to Junior Brother Zhang and Junior Sister Liu. These people will temporarily retreat to Tuoshan. There are three purple palaces, Kang Duhe, Han Wangpeng, and Zhou Xiangxian. Relying on the formation on Tuoshan, they can also resist for half a day."

Before the war with Hongshan Sect, Qingxuan Sect had thirteen purple palaces. Among these thirteen purple palaces, Lu Hongniang and Hu Peiyu had already formed a dan, Shen Conglong and Sun Changgeng died at the hands of Shen Chenzhou, Zhao Xinlian was devoured by a fifth-level monster, and not even a corpse was left, and Li Zigong also died at the mountain gate after his life was exhausted.

Afterwards, the three members of the Zhang family successively opened up the Purple Palace. Ancestor Jin also asked You Nianwei and Ancestor Liang to join. Although Ancestor Liang had reached the end of his life, he cultivated two Purple Palaces, Wei Bohan and Kang Duhe. Finally, before Zhang Zhixuan went to Qingli Sea, Wei Zongxun also successfully opened up the Purple Palace.

When Zhang Zhixuan and the other two came back from Qingli Sea, Qingxuan Sect had occupied the resources of Hongshan Sect, and the family assets in hand were much thicker. They successfully cultivated three new Purple Palaces, Wei Jinwen, Wang Jingcheng, and Zhang Huangyang, and the Zhang family also cultivated a Zhang Sihong.

If there had not been a tragic defeat a few days ago, Qingxuan Sect would have cultivated seventeen Purple Palaces, enough to compete with Huanshui Sect.

If according to the arrangement of Ancestor Jin, the sect will mainly defend the four spiritual veins of Heishan, Tuoshan, Zhongxuan, and Qingyang, and arrange thirteen Purple Palaces on these four spiritual veins. Relying on the mountain protection formation on the spiritual veins, even if they encounter a fifth-level monster, they can persist for a period of time, and the three golden elixirs of the sect will act as mobile forces to hunt high-level monsters.
