Chapter 681 Life-saving means, the mission begins

Chapter 681: Life-saving means, the mission begins

In the silence, ten breaths passed by in an instant.

In the crowd, Liu Yu lowered his eyes, trying his best to control his spiritual pressure and reduce his sense of presence.

When he heard the words "Black Mountain Immortal Prison" and "Nascent Soul True Lord", he had no idea of ​​participating.

No matter how generous the reward for the mission is, I just hope that Lord Qingshui will not choose me.

After all, Liu Yu was only in his early two hundred years. Compared with the golden elixir monk's eight hundred-year limit lifespan, he still had a lot of time to prepare for the condensation of the Nascent Soul, so there was no need to take risks.

Moreover, the means of life-saving are currently relatively simple and not enough to support the risk.

"Guo Poyun" "Liao Yunxi"

After a brief silence, Lord Qingshui slowly spoke and selected the monks to participate in the mission.

As the name was read out, a monk stood out from the crowd and was selected to participate in this mission.

There were different expressions on their faces, some were excited, some were uneasy, or some were confused.

But no matter what, being personally selected by Lord Qingshui, there was no way out.

Listening to the noise coming from all around, Liu Yu's expression remained unchanged and his sense of presence was reduced to a minimum. He just hoped that he would not be selected.

But things didn't go as he wished, and the next moment he felt a gaze from above falling on him.

The next moment, Lord Qingshui's voice sounded out slowly.

"ancient city"

“Everything is unpredictable.”

Liu Yu sighed in his heart, but there was no expression on his face, so he could only stand out from the crowd with a cupped hand.

People cannot help themselves in the world of cultivating immortals. Even if they have reached the pinnacle of golden elixirs and can almost crush ordinary golden elixirs, they sometimes have to do things against their will.

At this time, he could not go against the general trend, he could only follow the trend and try to protect himself.

Contending with the general trend is like trying to control a chariot with one's arms, and will most likely end up being shattered to pieces!

“Don’t be in the limelight, just play by ear.”

A trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, Liu Yu thought silently in his heart.

Ten names were read out in succession, and the ten core members stood in a row. The roll call ended.

If nothing else goes wrong, this is the elite team sent by the Commoner League, responsible for breaking into the "Black Mountain Immortal Prison" and rescuing the 21 golden elixir monks of the Purple Turban Army.

Qingshui Zhenjun's eyes kept scanning the faces of the ten selected members, seeming to be thinking about something.

"Once the war begins, we, the elders of Nascent Soul, will have to contain True Lord Qanting and will have no time to take into account your actions."

"It is not advisable to fight independently, so the elite team formed by you also needs a leader to command."

"As for the candidate."

At this point, his words suddenly stopped and he hesitated slightly.

Then his eyes narrowed, and he suddenly looked at one of the ten people, and said without any doubt:

"Just the ancient city."

After the words fell, the monks in the temple all turned their eyes and looked at Liu Yu, who was extremely low-key.

The unfamiliar monks' eyes were slightly suspicious and scrutinizing, and they didn't understand why the elder chose this person.

However, Elder Qingshui had many disciples and his vision was very precise, so they did not dare to question him.

As for Guo Poyun and other familiar monks, a look of understanding flashed in their eyes. They knew more or less Liu Yu's strength and didn't think there was anything wrong with him.

Some surprises, but also expected.

After all, the opponent's strength was already very good when he was in the middle stage of the golden elixir. Now that he has broken through to the late stage, his strength will definitely be even stronger.

It was reasonable to be appointed as the team leader.

"Thank you Elder Qingshui for your appreciation. The ancient city will obey!"

At this point, Liu Yu could only bite the bullet and accept the appointment.

"Um."

After the matter was finalized, Lord Qingshui nodded gently and then continued:

"The Qianting executions will begin in one year, so our actions must be done before the one-year deadline."

"There is still plenty of time. You can go back and prepare. We will still gather at the Hall of Immortals after November!"

"As long as we serve the alliance wholeheartedly, our alliance will not treat any comrade badly."

"If this operation goes well, even if the baby is born, it is not impossible to reward him with a spiritual creature."

As he spoke, he pinched the magic weapon.

"Rumble"

The next moment, the gate of the Immortal Palace suddenly opened, followed by a series of dull and loud noises, and soft natural light shone in again.

"I'll take my leave!"

After bowing with their hands raised, the core members walked out of the hall one after another.

Liu Yu mingled among them and walked quietly out of the hall, but thoughts flashed through his mind.

"The risks of this trip are not small. We must prepare in advance, otherwise if we suddenly encounter the Nascent Soul cultivator, we may be in danger."

"The ruined sword is as powerful as it can be, but it only has the power of one blow."

"My own cultivation level is still too low, and it is far from enough to deal with the Yuanying monks, even if they are only in the early stage of Yuanying."

"I can't wait for the Black Sky Auction House's ten-year auction to start, so I can only act in advance."

"Fortunately, the Central Territory is vast, with countless rare spiritual objects, and the various arts of cultivating immortals are also very mature."

"As long as you have enough high-grade spiritual stones and are willing to spend time looking for them, you can still buy what you need."

Thinking this way, he felt a little relaxed.

Besides, the Buyi League seems to have a very thorough plan and sufficient preparations, so they may not encounter unexpected situations.

Although Black Mountain Immortal Prison has a great name, it was only when the mana was sealed, the magic weapon was taken away, and it was done alone.

The Commoner League is an organized prison robbery, and the two are not the same.

"Hope everything goes well."

This thought flashed across Liu Yu's mind, when a voice suddenly sounded not far away, disrupting his thoughts.

"Fellow Taoist from the ancient city, I'm at Liao Yunxi."

"The mission is one year from now. I hope we can work together to tide over the difficulties together."

As the words rang out, a female cultivator wearing a green gown and a green plant tattoo on her left face slowly walked over.

This woman's cultivation level is at the peak of the Golden Core. Her face is not feminine like that of ordinary women. Instead, she looks very neutral and very independent.

"That's how it should be for people of the same ideals."

"Although Elder Qingshui has designated Gu as the team leader, Gu will never dare to make a big deal out of it in front of all his colleagues."

"If there are any mistakes at that time, please point it out in time, fellow Taoist Yunxi."

Looking at the visitor, Liu Yu smiled and held his hands in a very polite manner.

"Fellow Taoist Gucheng is too modest."

"Guo is very clear about the strength and means of fellow Taoist, and he is willing to listen to his instructions when the time comes."

"Fellow Taoist from the ancient city told me to go east, but I will never go west!"

Beside him, Guo Poyun straightened his figure as he spoke and made a decent gesture.

Seeing this scene, several familiar monks looked at each other and smiled, and the overall atmosphere was very harmonious.

Among the ten core members selected this time, including Guo Poyun, three of them were familiar to Liu Yu.

The remaining six people are not monolithic, so there is no need to worry about disobeying orders.

Outside the Hall of Immortals, ten monks participating in this mission gathered together and briefly introduced themselves to each other.

After getting acquainted for a while, they dispersed.

Perhaps because this mission is not all about profit, the atmosphere is generally quite harmonious, and there are not so many agencies scheming.

Liao Yunxi and others did not seem to have any intention of fighting for power, and their attitudes seemed to be cooperative.

"Whoosh~"

As the escaping light pierced the sky, Liu Yu thought silently and returned to the Xunyang City mansion.

…

The escape speed is at full speed, and the scenery along the way is rapidly retreating.

In less than half an hour, Xunyang City came into view.

Liu Yu flew directly into the city, landed in front of his mansion, took out the control token and played several spells.

"Rumble"

The protective formation was activated, and he stepped into it generously, scanning his surroundings with his eyes.

Soon, Zhuo Mengzhen's figure was discovered.

"Sizzle"

On the grass in the courtyard, a man and a demon were having fun.

After Xiaoqing reached the third level, he could master the skills of large and small Ruyi without any teacher. At this time, he had shrunk to about three feet.

But the immature mind is only equivalent to that of a seven or eight-year-old child, and he is still a little impatient.

As long as he doesn't stay in the spirit beast bag, he can't rest at all, and some of his behaviors seem a bit childish.

He cherishes every "fun" time very much and can't wait to have fun all at once.

However, Xiaoqing has reached level three. Although the fighting skills cannot help much, it is still a decent mount, and Liu Yu is still a little patient with it.

On weekdays, I occasionally take time to play with him.

It seems that due to the mission, Zhuo Mengzhen was a little absent-minded during the play. When he noticed Liu Yu's return, he immediately left Xiaoqing and came up:

"Husband, how is the situation?"

She asked immediately after walking in.

As a genius of the Hehuan Sect and having received an excellent education since she was a child, this girl naturally knows all kinds of etiquette.

However, compared to Jiang Qiushui and Ji Ruyan, when she got along with Liu Yu, except for some special occasions, she paid less attention to etiquette.

It may be due to a change in mood or a different situation. The current way the two get along is generally quite comfortable, so Liu Yu did not go out of his way to correct it.

"This mission is indeed more difficult than the previous ones."

"Buyi League, this is a big move!"

He shook his head slightly and walked towards the attic.

However, due to the need for confidentiality, Liu Yu did not reveal the details.

Zhuo Mengzhen was too sensible and didn't ask any more questions, but just nodded thoughtfully.

"Whoosh~"

As the two were walking, there was a sudden sound of breaking through the air, and a green shadow shot towards them quickly.

Not surprised, Liu Yu raised her hand and grabbed the cyan shadow, holding it accurately in her hand.

"Sizzle"

Opening his palm, Xiao Qing changed to three inches in size, spitting out snake letters from time to time and rubbing Liu Yu's clothes with his little head.

In the connection of the master-servant contract, there are waves of close emotions and the slightest grievance.

Seeing this, Liu Yu smiled slightly, teased Xiao Qing with her fingers, and continued walking to the attic.

I have been busy making breakthroughs recently, and basically left it to Zhuo Mengzhen to take care of. It is true that I have been a little neglectful of this little guy, and it is normal to have some complaints.

Soon, the two of them were sitting opposite each other in the attic hall.

As for Xiao Qing, after a short break, Liu Yu ordered her to enter the spirit beast room and practice patiently.

"If this mission does not go as planned, the entire Commoner League may be affected."

"By then, we must also leave Xunyang City."

"So at this time, you have to make plans in advance, and..."

After Zhuo Mengzhen poured the tea, Liu Yu picked up the teacup and took a sip. After thinking for a moment, he slowly spoke and ordered one thing after another.

The main thing is to let this girl go to fairy cities in other continents and rent a few more caves to leave herself a way out.

If something unexpected happens, the two of them will have a place to go.

After all, this mission is extraordinary. If the news leaks out, the subsequent attack on the Holy Land of Qianting will be a disaster for the Buyi Alliance!

No matter how thorough the plan is, there may not be any omissions.

For example, unexpected changes, such as a spy, etc.

Ideals are illusory, people's hearts are fickle and unpredictable, and they simply cannot stand the test.

The examples in the history books of cultivating immortals are bloody answers. Liu Yu does not think that the so-called "ideal" can change this fact.

As long as there are enough benefits, such as the opportunity to have a baby, it is easy to betray your comrades.

Nothing has happened yet, it's just that the benefits are not big enough.

In this case, it is necessary to prepare more escape routes. Even a cunning rabbit has three holes.

"Um."

Listening to Liu Yu's analysis, Zhuo Mengzhen was convinced and nodded obediently.

Although she occasionally loses her temper, she knows how to measure her limits and will not easily cross the boundary. All major matters are decided by the other party.

"In this case, I will leave this matter to you. You must be careful not to reveal your identity."

"By the way, take Xiaoqing with you, and you will have someone to take care of you if something unexpected happens."

"I have something important to do, so I won't go with you."

Confirming that the woman really understood, Liu Yu nodded gently, then picked up the tea cup and drank slowly.

Although he has extraordinary blood, Xiao Qing is currently only in the middle of the third level, so he really can't help him much.

If you encounter an opponent of the same level, such as a character on the Zhongyu real person list, this demon's intervention will only lead to death, and it will be difficult to affect the battle situation.

If it were an ordinary monk, Liu Yu could solve it with just a few moves, and Xiao Qing was not needed.

There is also escape speed. Although this guy is faster than ordinary monks and demon cultivators, it is still far from being comparable to him.

As a mount, he is extremely incompetent.

At the moment, it really can't be of much help, so I simply give it to Zhuo Mengzhen to protect this woman's safety.

"The operation will start in less than a year. There will be twists and turns along the way. This matter must be handled quickly."

"There must be no delay."

With that said, Liu Yu took out five pieces of high-grade spiritual stones and pushed them to the other side of the table as funds for work.

Renting a cave requires spiritual stones. Naturally, it is impossible for Zhuo Mengzhen to come out of this amount of money, and this woman will most likely not be able to either.

After all, apart from the daily consumption of cultivation, this woman also purchased two magic weapons, and there were not many spiritual stones left in her hands.

Living in the same mansion, Liu Yu seemed not to pay attention to Zhuo Mengzhen, but he still had a general idea of ​​her situation.

"The dream is so clear."

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, Zhuo Mengzhen's eyes brightened obviously, and he said with some joy.

After saying that, she waved her sleeves and put the five high-grade spiritual stones into the storage ring.

If it were in Tiannan, Liu Yu would naturally not be able to directly take out the high-grade spiritual stone. After all, the high-grade spiritual stone itself is also very rare.

But the Central Territory is different. There are more large-scale spiritual stone mines, and the corresponding production of high-grade spiritual stones is also more, and naturally there is more circulation in the market.

The difficulty of getting started is much easier than Tiannan.

With Liu Yu's current financial resources, the loss of replacing middle- and low-grade spiritual stones with high-grade spiritual stones has long been ignored.

Therefore, most of the spiritual stones in my hands were replaced with high-grade spiritual stones.

Even if you don't exchange it, when selling elixirs, you can still specify high-grade spiritual stones for trading.

Due to the rarity of the third-level elixir and the "reasonable" price of the elixir, the store had no reason not to agree to this request.

After giving a few instructions to pay attention, Liu Yu did not stay in the mansion any longer. When he left the attic, he turned into a ray of light and soared into the sky.

The mission was imminent, and under the shadow of the possibility of encountering the True Monarch Nascent Soul, he had to take action immediately.

Although the action took place eleven months later, the reality had already begun from the moment I accepted the mission.

Every preparation you make may affect the final outcome!

It was not Liu Yu's original intention to be involved in this operation, but it was a matter of life and fortune, so he still had to deal with it proactively.

"Whoosh"

Watching the cyan light disappear, Zhuo Mengzhen touched the storage ring on his hand, a smile appeared on his face, and then walked towards the spirit beast room.

Not long after, she also left the mansion and walked directly to the teleportation hall of Xunyang City.

…

Among the monks of the Buyi League, eleven months passed by in a blink of an eye.

Liu Yu's preparations have been basically completed.

After November, Xunyang City Cave Mansion.

When the time came, Liu Yu said goodbye to Zhuo Mengzhen and rushed straight to Wanxian Mountain.

According to his request, Zhuo Mengzhen has rented many caves in various states using various identities.

In this way, even if something unexpected happens suddenly, there will still be a place to hide, and the location will not be quickly locked by Qanting Holy Land.

"What needs to be done has been done, it just depends on how things develop."

"Hope everything goes well."

While flying away, Liu Yu thought silently.

He is actually quite satisfied with the current situation and doesn't want to change it.

There is no shortage of spiritual stones, and you can also use the channels of the Buyi League to obtain knowledge and collect spiritual herbs, which is already an ideal state.

A mission that occurs once every five years may be difficult for ordinary Jindan, but it is nothing to him.

Thinking like this, Liu Yu subconsciously touched the long sword at his waist, then looked at the storage ring on his finger, his expression immediately relaxed.

After traveling around various continents in the Central Territory, after several months of searching, he successfully collected two life-saving talismans without skimping on spiritual stones or elixirs.

One is the "Wind and Thunder Escape Talisman", which is as high as the fourth-level mid-grade. Liu Yu spent a full 600,000 spirit stones to buy it at an underground auction.

For this reason, he was also targeted by several golden elixir monks who were strong in self-control, and had to bear the pain to turn them into demonic fire fuel before he could float away.

Unlike most escape talismans, once the "Wind and Thunder Escape Talisman" is activated, it can use the power of wind and thunder to bless itself.

The monk's escape speed is comparable to that of the early Yuanying monks, and the effect lasts for three to five hours.

For the Golden elixir monks, this talisman is an out-and-out life-saving treasure, but it is of no use to the Nascent Soul monks, so it cannot attract the Nascent Soul monster.

It was after inquiring about the situation and making sure that the True Lord Nascent Soul would not appear that Liu Yu chose to participate in the competition for the "Wind and Thunder Escape Talisman".

The other talisman is called the "Easy Thousand Miles Talisman", which can be regarded as a low-level version of the "Easy Thousand Miles Talisman", but there are also four lower grades.

Although it cannot leave coordinates and accurately teleport, it can move long distances instantly, which still makes this talisman extremely valuable.

Liu Yu was skeptical about whether he could teleport hundreds of miles, but he thought it wouldn't be a problem to teleport seventy or eighty miles.

At a critical moment, you might be able to save a small life.

In the same situation, Liu Yucai chose to take action and spent 350,000 spirit stones to bid for it after confirming that he would not bid with True Monarch Nascent Soul.

The two talismans combined cost a huge sum of 950,000 yuan, which is undoubtedly an astronomical sum for ordinary Jindan monks.

Different from low-level talismans, they are only used in large quantities in emergencies. They are disposable consumables and are very cheap.

Due to various reasons, the number of talismans above the third level has suddenly decreased, and they can be initially called "spiritual talismans".

At a critical moment, it might be possible to turn the tide of the battle.

Fourth-level talismans are extremely rare, especially talismans that can save one's life and escape.

This kind of talisman has completely exceeded the category of cheap consumables. Its properties are closer to treasures and spiritual objects, and its price may be higher than that of spiritual objects of the same level.

Low-level talismans are not comparable at all.

In addition to the spiritual stones used in order to leave a way out, Liu Yu has consumed more than one million spiritual stones in just eleven months!

At this time, there were only about 400,000 spiritual stones left in the storage ring.

"With my own financial resources, even if it is a fourth-level attack method, I am still enough to participate in the bidding."

"It's just a pity."

After this thought crossed his mind, Liu Yu shook his head slightly.

Fourth-level attack methods are effective against Jindan monks, and are naturally attractive to Nascent Soul Lord, such as fourth-level puppets and so on.

Although the spirit stones are enough, is he qualified to bid against the old monster Yuanying? !

It is difficult for low-level monks to end well if they offend high-level monks. Although the auction organizer has made various guarantees, few low-level monks dare to take risks.

The common man is innocent of the crime of harboring the jade. If his financial resources are exposed, he may face more than one Yuanying old monster.

And if you purchase a fourth-level attack method, you can cross the gap between great realms and compete with the Nascent Soul Lord?

wishful thinking!

Due to various considerations, Liu Yu ultimately did not purchase the fourth-level attack method and focused on life-saving means.

The Qi Qiankun Talisman and the Instant Hundred Miles Talisman are used to distance each other at critical moments, and the Wind and Thunder Escape Talisman is used to continuously escape.

In this way, as long as he had enough reaction time, he would have a high chance of escaping and ascending to heaven even if he faced a monk in the early stage of Nascent Soul.

Even if there are changes in this mission of the Buyi League, they can advance and retreat calmly, and their life-saving ability is greatly enhanced.

"Unless you are targeted by a late Nascent Soul cultivator, this trip should not be life-threatening."

While flying away, Liu Yu's spiritual consciousness scanned the three fourth-level talismans in the storage ring, feeling extremely peaceful.

"Apart from absolute strength, most of the troubles in this world can be solved with spiritual stones or resources."

"Money can make a fool of himself, that's true."

"When the spiritual stones reach a certain number, the hot blood will be cooled down, and justice will be silenced!"

At this moment, he secretly sighed in his heart.

"Whoosh~"

With his escape speed at full speed, Liu Yu, who was well prepared, was in a relaxed mood and soon crossed a thousand miles.

The majestic Wanxian Mountain once again came into view.

…

"Fellow Taoist in the Ancient City"

After timing, when Liu Yu entered the Hall of Immortals, Guo Poyun, Liao Yunxi and others were already waiting here.

Among the ten Jindan who participated in the mission, he was the last one to arrive.

Although the Buyi League claims to be "fair and just," there is no absolute fairness in the world. Liu Yu's status as team leader makes Liu Yu's status slightly higher than that of other members.

Guo Poyun, Liao Yunxi and others also acquiesced in this point.

After exchanging a few polite words, the palace fell into silence again, and the ten people waited silently for the elder to appear.

But the appointed time passed, and the elders were still missing.

"this"

Guo Poyun and others looked at each other, and finally looked at the team leader.

Liu Yu shook his head slightly, saying that he didn't understand why, but at this moment, there was movement in the storage ring.

With a look on his face, he took out the jade token of communication, and a ray of divine consciousness instantly penetrated it.

"We, the Nascent Soul cultivators, must not disappear at will, otherwise we may be alerted by Qian Ting."

"You guys go ahead and get there"

"At that time, we will show up and immediately launch rescue operations."

The jade card message asked Liu Yu and others to rush to Huaizhou's "Black Mountain Immortal Prison" and arrive at the designated location.

Elder Nascent Soul cannot disappear for too long and will arrive before the action is taken.

This message was sent by Lord Qingshui, and it corresponds to what was said before. It is unlikely to be false.

"The elders have orders, I will take the first step."

"Set off!"

After confirming that the information was true or false, Liu Yu looked around at everyone with a calm expression and said in a deep voice.

PS: After October 14th, all book circles and chapter reviews for all books will be closed, so you cannot participate in fan title events after October 14th, and your comments will not be visible.

PS: It’s solved now.
