Chapter 719 Hidden Arrows

After Yang Xuanzhen teleported away, he immediately destroyed the teleportation array to prevent the enemy from tracking here. As for the lives of her disciples, she had completely ignored them and could only let nature take its course and see how many of them could escape the Purple Sun Sect's pursuit.

According to her estimation, there are probably only a handful of monks who can escape from the Goddess Peak.

Just after leaving the dangerous environment, Yang Xuanzhen immediately remembered that there was another disaster on the Goddess Peak, and immediately activated the Heart-Eating Gu.

Poor Yao Zongxian had just escaped into the air and was about to rescue his descendants. In an instant, his heart broke and he fell from the air and died in a desolate valley.

Not only did he not leave any last words, he also did not see any of his relatives.

After dealing with Yao Zongxian, Yang Xuanzhen rushed to the Yanghuo Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty. After being recommended by Ji Xuande, he worshiped at the gate of the Yanghuo Palace and built another mountain.

Yang Xuanzhen recruited old troops in the Zhou Dynasty. It took him two years to gather more than 200 remaining defeated troops.

The four golden elixir disciples Yu Hanxiang, Pu Yunlu, Ji Ruohua, and Su Menghan all died in battle. The disciples Wang Jingyun and Hu Yujing who refined the golden elixir did not save their lives and died at the hands of the Ziyang Sect monks.

Only two of her five golden elixir disciples and three golden elixir disciples survived. Only one person from the Goddess Peak saw that the situation was not good and escaped by teleportation array.

Of the more than thirty disciples and grandsons of Zifuqi, only six escaped. The remaining stinky fish and shrimps were all scattered in the Wu Kingdom and were of no use to her.

As dusk approached, Yang Xuanzhen looked at the sunset with a sad look on his face.

"How is the situation in Wu State?"

"From the information coming from within the Ziyang Sect, it appears that Senior Sister Yu failed in blowing up the spiritual veins, and Senior Sister Su failed to protect herself by polluting the spiritual field. Junior Sister Pu died in Yulong Mountain, and Senior Sister Ji destroyed the Sutra Pavilion and died in Chen Yunfeng's death. Hands. Both Wang Jingyun and Hu Yujing died in the teleportation formation, and most of the disciples were not saved.

The only good news is that the head of the Ziyang Sect has some benevolence, and only implicated the monks of our lineage, sparing the mortal relatives. However, without the protection of the monks, their life was not easy. They were expelled from the prosperous place near Goddess Peak and placed under residential surveillance in Yunling County.

In this battle, we lost all our foundations in the Wu Kingdom. Even if Yanghuo Palace fully assists us, we may not be able to compete with the Ziyang Sect if we lose our geography. Counting Liu Guyan who holds the Ziyang Sky Fire Talisman, Ziyang Sect already has four Nascent Souls. If they want to regain their homeland, they may have no chance. "

The person who spoke had a pretty face and looked about thirty years old. There was a hint of flattery in his eyebrows. He was none other than Meng Qingmei, the last disciple of Yang Xuanzhen. Meng Qingmei was liked the most by Yang Xuanzhen. She was sent to the Great Zhou Dynasty two hundred years ago to be responsible for maintaining relations with Yanghuo Palace. The only Xuansu Zong Jindan who actually escaped from the Goddess Peak was Lu Shaoting.

Yang Xuanzhen said with a complex expression: "If I don't die, Liu Lingjun and others will definitely not give up. Liu Qingchan, the newly promoted Nascent Soul of the Ziyang Sect, has some magical powers and behavioral habits that are somewhat similar to Liu Xuanyan. We should keep a close eye on this person." , I suspect that she is very involved with Liu Xuanyan, and maybe traces of Liu Xuanyan can be found from her side."

Meng Qingmei frowned and said: "This person is cautious by nature and has been in seclusion for decades. She seems to be an ascetic monk. She rarely comes into contact with outside monks. We know very little about her. She is far inferior to the other two of the Ziyang Sect. Even if Nascent Soul Chen Yunfeng and Liu Lingjun want to keep an eye on her, they don’t have the right people.”

"Yao Zongxian made great contributions to the Ziyang Sect, and he was an old man of the sect back then. His grandson has fallen into our control. This person will definitely be able to contact the core of the Ziyang Sect in the future. We must seize this clue."

"Master, don't worry. I will not contact him easily. I will definitely protect this person and let him play his role at the most critical moment."

…

After Yang Xuanzhen escaped, the monks of Xuansu Sect were quickly defeated.

The Jindan monks died one after another, and the Zifu monks could only flee in panic.

Unfortunately, with the Ziyang Sect's golden elixir blocking them from all directions, these people had no choice but to leave their bodies and have no way to escape except by taking the teleportation array.

The Goddess Peak occasionally lights up the teleportation array, but it cannot escape the pursuit of Master Qingchan and Liu Lingjun. The monks who teleported died one after another and their souls returned to the underworld.

Except for Yang Xuanzhen, who was the first to activate the teleportation array, only five people escaped from the Goddess Peak through the teleportation array. Among these people, there was only one Jindan and four Zifu.

Lu Shaoting was the closest to the teleportation formation and had the most astute personality. She managed to escape from the mountain gate before the mountain-protecting formation was shattered. Yang Xuanzhen's lineage was almost wiped out.

Her disciples and grandsons were all killed by the vengeful Yuanying of the Ziyang Sect, and only a few dozen of the more than 2,000 sect members escaped with their lives.

Most of these dozens of people were not at Goddess Peak, but were fleeing pursuit in other spiritual veins in Wu State when the situation was bad.

Except for Yang Xuanzhen's direct lineage, most of the monks of Xuansu Sect are just outsiders.

When Yang Xuanzhen was there, they also resisted and helped Xuan Suzong guard the gate. When Yang Xuanzhen escaped, these people immediately put down their magic weapons and raised their hands to surrender. Zhang Zhixuan did not go into details about these people. He just confiscated their storage bags, expelled them from the territory of Ziyang Sect, and reduced them to casual cultivators.

The suppressed Liu Lingjun lineage, and those who made a timely revolt, were included in the Ziyang Sect's roster by Zhang Zhixuan. Not only were they treated equally, but they were also given generous subsidies for their good deeds.

Although this battle did not kill Yang Xuanzhen, the culprit, the results were quite fruitful.

After driving away Yang Xuanzhen, seizing more than 40 large and small mineral veins, and also capturing the sixth-order Spirit Vein Goddess Peak, the Ziyang Sect's territory almost doubled.

All 37 million mortals of Wu Kingdom fell into the control of Ziyang Sect, and more than 60,000 original Xuansu Sect cultivators were incorporated. Wu Kingdom's foundation-building families and independent cultivators were also included in the list of Ziyang Sect cultivators.

After this battle, the number of Ziyang Sect cultivators increased by about 160,000.

Among these hundreds of thousands of cultivators, there are more than 40 purple mansions, more than 1,000 foundation-building cultivators, 140,000 Qi training cultivators, and more than 20,000 innate cultivators.

After these people were incorporated into Ziyang Sect, the annual amount of good deeds issued reached more than 1.9 million, which was not enough to rely on the resources of Yu Kingdom.

Fortunately, this battle took a relatively short time, lasting only more than ten days, but Ziyang Sect's consumption was still very serious. Only from the Xuanxin Patriarch, 500,000 spirit stones were needed. In addition, Qingchan's infant formation also consumed all the high-grade spirit stones of Ziyang Sect.

The family assets accumulated by Ziyang Sect for more than 20 years since its establishment have been completely consumed in recent years. Some talismans and magic tools in the sect's treasury were also completely emptied in the more than ten days of war.

The good deeds awarded after the war could not be exchanged for spiritual objects except for the cultivation techniques.

Fortunately, the difficulties were temporary. After successfully conquering Wu, Ziyang Sect gained a staggering amount of spiritual stones. The various mineral veins added up to 1.6 million spiritual stones per year. Adding the income from spiritual fields and spiritual medicine gardens, Ziyang Sect's annual income would exceed 5 million.

Even with the burden of Wu cultivators, the annual surplus would exceed 1 million.

After conquering Wu, Zhang Zhixuan would not be short of spiritual stones in the future.
