Chapter 556: Support the retreat

This time, the situation in the Southern Wilds was tense. Qingxuan Sect had withdrawn all the Purple Mansion cultivators in the north, and even the original foundation-building cultivators from the three northern counties were withdrawn to the Southern Wilds.

Even the Chaoyin Mountain Spirit Stone Mine only had three foundation-building cultivators stationed there. Such a critical place had such a loose defense that it actually formed a loophole. If someone took advantage of the situation, they would probably make a lot of money.

The immortal cultivation families in the three southeastern counties also concentrated most of their cultivators in Black Mountain.

The Zhang family only left two foundation-building cultivators in the large area of ​​Tiantai Peak and Huangyan Mountain.

Si Jin brought five foundation-building clan members to Black Mountain. Her cultivation had reached the ninth level of foundation-building, and with the fourth-level puppet beast, she could barely compete with the fourth-level monster beast.

Although the three northern counties had been emptied, no one dared to act rashly. Because once Qingxuan Sect had time, the means of revenge would be very cruel.

Now that the Qingxuan Sect and Huanshui Sect have a harmonious relationship and no one is holding them back, they can naturally put all their strength into the Southern Wilds to resist the attacks of monsters.

Chen Yunfeng has already gone to Qingli Sea, and Huanshui Sect still has to face the pressure of Xuansu Sect, so it is impossible to withdraw too many people to support Qingxuan Sect.

Facing the siege of four fifth-level monsters, the three sects of the Kingdom of Wei cannot send people to support them. Now the only reinforcements that Qingxuan Sect can count on are from Tianchan Cave.

Liu Lingjun has returned to the Southern Wilds, along with Gu Xuanzhou, who is at the eighth level of Jindan, and Nie Xingyuan, who is at the sixth level of Jindan. These three are the biggest support for Qingxuan Sect.

It's a pity that Liu Guyan has to retreat and can't move for the time being. Otherwise, she and Liu Lingjun will join forces to have enough power to defeat the Poison Dragon Pond army, kill several fifth-level monsters, and dampen the prestige of the Qingtong Monster King.

After Zhang Zhixuan discussed with Patriarch Jin, Patriarch Jin was temporarily in charge of Qingyang Mountain to deal with emergencies. Zhang Zhixuan and Qingchan split into two groups and began to support Kang Duhe of Teng Mountain, Han Wangpeng of Huayang Mountain and others to retreat quickly, and returned to Tuo Mountain to join Zhou Xiangxian.

Qingchan had a higher level of cultivation and greater magical powers, so she gave the faster Shenxing Boat to Zhang Zhixuan for sacrifice and let him go to Huayang Mountain, which was relatively close. She drove the large spiritual boat left by Patriarch Liang and prepared to go to Teng Mountain, which was farther away, to support.

After discussing with Patriarch Jin, Zhang Zhixuan and Qingchan displayed their escape light and left the mountain gate in an instant.

The two waved to each other, said goodbye to each other, and went their separate ways.

Zhang Zhixuan sacrificed the Shenxing Boat. Although his magic power and magical powers were not as good as Qingchan's, the Shenxing Boat was a fifth-level magic weapon with an amazing speed, which was even faster than Qingchan.

Huayang Mountain is less than 40,000 miles away from Qingyang Mountain. Zhang Zhixuan traveled day and night for just one and a half days before arriving at the gate of Huayang Mountain.

Seeing this escape light from afar, Han Wangpeng of Huayang Mountain changed his face and immediately brought his disciples to greet him.

This was the first time Zhang Zhixuan met Han Wangpeng after he had formed the elixir, but the old ancestor Jin had already sent someone to inform him of the situation of the Zhang family.

When he saw Zhang Zhixuan, Han Wangpeng's face suddenly changed, and he felt mixed emotions.

When Zhang Zhixuan was still a small foundation-building cultivator, his cultivation level was already at the third level of the Purple Mansion.

During the Eastern Locust Rebellion, this person personally came forward to sit in Yanlai Peak, provided Zhang Zhixuan with the locust-killing locust spirit powder for free, and assisted the cultivators of Taicheng County in exterminating the locusts.

In the last battle of the monster invasion, it was also relying on him and Wei Bohan to fight to the death to stop the fourth-level monster from harming Taicheng County.

This battle ended Wei Bohan's path, and Han Wangpeng was also seriously injured, which delayed his cultivation for decades. Now his cultivation is only at the sixth level of the Purple Mansion.

Han Wangpeng is two decades older than Zhang Zhixuan. It seems that he can cultivate to the ninth level of the Purple Mansion before he is 400 years old. However, it is basically impossible for a Purple Mansion ninth-level cultivator of this age to form a golden elixir.

If he had not been injured that year, he should have had a chance to break through the bottleneck of the golden elixir.

When he saw Zhang Zhixuan, Han Wangpeng bowed in dismay.

According to the rules of the cultivation world, Zhang Zhixuan and Han Wangpeng have no master, so naturally the one who has achieved success comes first. More than a hundred years ago, Zhang Zhixuan called him uncle, but now Zhang Zhixuan has made great progress in cultivation, and he is still standing still. Instead, he has become Zhang Zhixuan's junior and calls Zhang Zhixuan uncle.

If it was an outsider with whom he had a distant relationship, even if Han Wangpeng envied him in his heart, he could barely accept it.

However, Zhang Zhixuan was a junior whom he valued. He not only taught him how to practice, but also passed on a third-level pill recipe from the sect to him. This gap made Han Wangpeng's heart churn, and he even felt a little jealous.

However, he has been practicing Taoism for 300 years, and his wisdom and mentality are far superior to those of low-level cultivators. He immediately suppressed his distracting thoughts and said, "Greetings, Uncle Zhang. Are you here to pick us up?"

Zhang Zhixuan said, "We are old friends, Uncle Han doesn't need to be so polite."

"The one who has achieved success in the world of cultivation comes first. Uncle is a genius, so there is no need to be so humble."

"In that case, we will treat each other as equals. You are older than me, so I will call you Brother Han. You guessed right. The situation in Guiyuan Mountain is tight. After discussing with Patriarch Jin, I decided to give up Teng Mountain and Huayang Mountain and concentrate our strength on Tuo Mountain. How many cultivators do you have here? My Shenxing Boat can only carry 30 people. Let the remaining cultivators make plans early and return in groups of three or two. This way, the target will be smaller and there will be more chances to survive." Because time is urgent, Zhang Zhixuan said briefly.

Seeing Zhang Zhixuan's serious face, Han Wangpeng said with some embarrassment: "There are no mortals on Mount Teng, only more than 200 cultivators, including 15 foundation-building cultivators. Who of the remaining Qi-training cultivators should be allowed to ride the spiritual boat? If it is not handled properly, it will greatly damage the prestige of the sect."

Zhang Zhixuan almost didn't think about it and blurted out: "Those with good spiritual roots will be given priority, and those under the age of 60 who are in the ninth level of Qi training will be given priority."

Seeing that Zhang Zhixuan didn't dare to delay for a moment, Han Wangpeng also felt the seriousness of the situation. He immediately summoned the cultivators on the mountain and announced Zhang Zhixuan's order.

After hearing the sect's decision, some Qi-training cultivators with lower cultivation levels could not bear it, and some of them even secretly wept and cried.

This cry made Zhang Zhixuan feel sad. He coughed and said, "While the monster army has not surrounded Teng Mountain, you should run for your lives!

You should take care of each other in groups of three or two, and don't act together. This will make you too conspicuous. If you are lucky, you may meet again. Even the cultivators who follow me may not be able to return to the mountain gate safely. A few days ago, many cultivators who followed Sister Lu were killed or injured, and even two purple mansion cultivators died.

Born in the Southern Wilderness, if you want to survive, you have to fight monsters all the time. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame our bad luck for being born in Yu Country.

If you can escape, I hope you can practice hard in the future. If someone can refine the Nascent Soul, it can change the situation in Yu Country, stabilize the surrounding environment, and protect our descendants."

Seeing that the situation could not be changed and time was very tight, the low-level cultivators present could only suppress their fear and leave the mountain gate together.

Six Foundation Establishment cultivators who had no hope on their path took the initiative to take responsibility, gave up their places on the Divine Boat, and decided to stay and help these Qi Condensation cultivators escape, hoping to bring back more people.
