Chapter 706 A piece of scorched earth

Chapter 706: A piece of scorched earth

Based on Guo Poyun's understanding, Liu Yu usually seems to be indifferent to many things, but once he makes a decision, there is no doubt about it, and it is really possible to issue an order to "cut the grass and root out the roots".

Therefore, he spoke first, hoping that the worst case scenario would not occur.

Hearing this, Liu Yu's lips curled up slightly, as he had expected this statement.

"There is nothing you can't do."

His expression remained unchanged and he said calmly.

If you follow the guidance of "The Essentials of Demonic Cultivation", this kind of thing must be eradicated and carried out non-stop to the end.

Before forming the elixir, Liu Yu was more inclined to do this.

But today, the identity is different, and we still have to worry about some influences.

Although the Purple Turban Army acts cleanly and neatly, they still have a certain bottom line after all.

Immortal cultivators can deal with them casually, but most of the time they still have a wide berth when it comes to extremely fragile mortals, and it is expressly prohibited to kill mortals on a large scale, even if they have grudges.

No matter how he is now named in the Purple Turban Army, he still needs to pay attention to the impact.

What's more, the large-scale killing of mortals has extremely bad effects. Most forces have expressly prohibited it, and the casual cultivators are also very disgusted.

The cultivation environment in the Zixia Mountains is good. Liu Yu does not plan to change it at the moment, so he naturally has to pay attention to some effects.

His eyes swept across the gathering place of mortals around Hongzhu Mountain, and he calmly withdrew his gaze.

Although among the tens of thousands of mortals of the Feng family, there may be descendants with spiritual roots who can step onto the path of immortality, but with Liu Yu's current strength, he no longer cares about it.

Even the best Tianling roots have little advantage when facing the bottleneck of Nascent Soul, and the success rate is not much higher than that of ordinary spiritual roots.

Not to mention, it is not easy to cultivate to the point where you can break through the bottleneck of Yuanying. Whether you can survive the previous hardships is still unclear.

One is already at the end, the other just has potential.

With Liu Yu's current ninth-grade golden elixir, which is enough to rank among the top ten on the "Real Person List", the title of "Heaven's Proud One" may sound intimidating, but the actual threat is actually minimal.

Generally speaking, this is the best spiritual root qualification, let alone other spiritual roots below it.

Of course, he has never been in the habit of threatening. If the Feng family really has children with "celestial spiritual roots" or "foreign spiritual roots", they will definitely kill them immediately.

With different realms and strengths, Liu Yu's perspective on things and the way he handles things have also changed accordingly.

"It's time to leave."

Overlooking the deathly silent Hongzhu Mountain, he said calmly.

Then the small black flag in his hand waved slightly, and the ghostly aura that shrouded Lingshan quickly retreated into the Ten Thousand Souls Flag, just like a rapidly receding tide.

Those ferocious-looking evil spirits, after being "trained", behaved like well-behaved babies. They immediately returned to the Soul Banner upon being ordered, without daring to delay for a moment.

In just a breath or two, the "black cloud" covering Hongzhu Mountain disappeared, but the mountain looked completely different from a moment ago.

The vegetation is withered, the buildings are decaying, and the bones are exposed.

At first glance, this mountain is lifeless and there is no trace of human beings anymore.

Even the iconic bamboo forest in Hongzhu Mountain has withered and decayed under the erosion of ghost energy.

"咻咻"

Looking at this scene, Liu Yu had no expression on his face, and a series of fireballs flew out with a snap of his fingers.

“Bang bang bang”

The fireball fell into Hongzhu Mountain and immediately ignited a fierce fire.

Seeing that Liu Yu had no intention of "eliminating the roots", Guo Poyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then released fireballs one after another, making the fire below become more raging.

The traces left by the Feng family monks gradually disappeared in the fierce fire.

"The spiritual veins have not been destroyed. This mountain will have a new owner soon."

"It's just that at that time, I wonder if it would still be called Hongzhushan?"

Liu Yu stood with her hands behind her hands, and this thought flashed across her mind.

As his experience in cultivating immortals became more and more abundant, he became more and more familiar with doing these things.

My heart gradually calmed down, just like eating and drinking.

Although the Lingshan Mountain in front of us looks devastated, the spiritual veins have not been destroyed after all.

Under the nourishment of spiritual energy, it can naturally regain its vitality within a few decades. If a monk intervenes, the process will be faster.

With the overall spiritual energy of the world of immortality declining, strict regulations have been formed regarding spiritual veins and resource points.

Even if the two sides have a deep hatred, they only kill the monks who use the spiritual veins without destroying the spiritual veins themselves.

Otherwise, if we act recklessly, these resources for cultivating immortals will become less and less like oases in the desert, which is not in the interest of all living beings.

Including monsters and other races, this is also the case under normal circumstances.

Once violated, the seriousness of the matter will increase a lot, and it will most likely lead to investigation by major forces, such as the powerful Qanting Holy Land.

"Let's go."

With some regret that things went against his wishes, Liu Yuping said calmly and dealt with the aftermath.

Leading Guo Poyun, Tian Xiaoyu, and Zhuji Anzi, the group of people turned into escaping light one after another, turning into small dots in the sky, and disappeared after a few breaths.

Although Liu Yu felt a little regretful about not being able to convince the Feng family in the end, she felt relieved after thinking about it carefully.

After all, a cultivating family is different from a casual cultivator. The lives of tens of thousands of people in the family are involved. It is impossible to agree in a hurry. There are too many things to worry about.

Although the Feng family is in a difficult situation, they still have to deal with the excessive taxes and levies imposed by Qian Ting, which seems to be unsustainable.

However, the status quo can be maintained for a while, at least until something happens to the Jin Dan Patriarch.

As for joining the precarious casual cultivator organization, if the news is accidentally leaked, the liquidation of Qanting Holy Land may come at any time.

With the huge gap in strength between the two, this path is not bright no matter how you look at it.

Therefore, under various favorable conditions, it is not surprising at all that the ancestor of the Feng family still chose "no".

Not every monk, let alone a family ancestor, is willing to risk his fortune and life for an uncertain future.

"Zizi~"

The four people left, but the magic fire left behind was still burning brightly, quickly turning Hongzhu Mountain and its surroundings into a piece of scorched earth.

The huge fire can be seen for dozens of miles.

Afterwards, some righteous monks might blame all this on a certain demonic cultivator.

Or maybe a well-known demonic cult claimed responsibility for the incident.

However, all of this has nothing to do with Liu Yu and others, nor will it have anything to do with the Purple Turban Army.

For tens of thousands of Feng family mortals, a huge storm is coming.

I don’t know how many people will survive afterwards, and how many people will have a rough life as a result.

…

Chatting with Guo Poyun along the way, he was a little curious about the "Ten Thousand Souls Flag" that Liu Yu had never used in public, so he couldn't help but ask a few more questions.

However, Liu Yu dealt with these casually. He just said that they were trophies obtained from a certain demon cultivator and thought they were worthy of use, so he did not sell them.

"The news I'm waiting for has not been leaked, right?"

Not wanting to talk more about the Thousand Soul Banner, he changed the subject without changing his expression.

"Don't worry, fellow Taoist from the ancient city. Guo always handles things flawlessly. From the beginning to the end, he never gives the ancestor of the Feng family a chance to send a message."

“From the moment I stepped into Hongzhu Mountain, the Thousand Machine Ball has been on.”

"Even if the Feng family monks find something wrong, it is impossible to send the information out."

As he spoke, Guo Poyun flicked his sleeves, and a small gray ball flew out of his sleeves.

This object is about the size of a fist, and its entire body is dim gray. It is densely engraved with extremely small runes, forming an obscure and incomprehensible rune array.

This special magic weapon is called "Thousand Machine Balls", and it was specially prepared by the Purple Turban Army to suppress the communication.

Once it is turned on, it can block the communication within a fifty-mile radius, and there is no need to worry about the monk leaking information through the communication jade token.

Considering the importance of this mission, the Purple Turban Army specially prepared such a special magic weapon.

The Thousand Machine Ball is suspended in the air, and countless runes light up with blue aura, which is a sign that it has been turned on.

"Fellow Daoist Guo is doing things, and Gu will naturally feel at ease."

After scanning Qian Ji Qiu, Liu Yu's eyes flashed and he answered naturally.

This special magic weapon is indeed very practical. It can effectively prevent monks who are communicating from secretly using the communication jade tablet to communicate with other people.

But unfortunately, he currently only has the right to use it, and he still has to hand it over to the Purple Turban Army after the mission is completed.

"It seems that I will have to prepare such a magic weapon in the future."

"Otherwise, you may encounter the kind of monk who can send messages without anyone noticing, and you will fall into passivity."

"Well, as long as there is no shortage of spiritual stones, the more prepared you are, the better."

Liu Yu thought silently in his heart.

The Thousand Machine Ball, a special magic weapon, can be regarded as a strategic weapon, and the Qanting Holy Land strictly controls its circulation.

Because the refining method is unknown, channels such as black markets and auctions rarely appear.

He had thought about buying one before, but because he couldn't find the source of the product and was busy looking for the follow-up of "Qingyang Gong", he finally gave up.

"This mission has been successfully completed. Maybe I can make a request and purchase one through the Purple Turban Army channel."

While flying away, Liu Yu's heart moved, thinking about the feasibility of this matter.

"Whizzing"

With little care and attention along the way, the four of them returned to the base smoothly, had a brief exchange and then left.

Liu Yu took Tian Xiaoyu and returned directly to the attic, while Guo Poyun left with the Foundation Establishment Anzi, giving him rewards and rearranging tasks.

Doing tasks such as "undercover" and "spy" involves high risks and high rewards.

Although he failed to win over the Feng family this time, the foundation-building Anzi's performance was remarkable and he would still receive a relatively large amount of spiritual stones, and the new mission would be relatively easy and safe.

There will never be a chilling situation like three years and three years.

Although Liu Yu is the helmsman, he rarely does everything himself, and most affairs are handled by his own hands.

But important actions must be approved by his nod.

For example, wooing the Feng family this time, or speeding up the wooing of new members in normal times.

Liu Yu and Guo Poyun have a clear division of labor. He is mainly responsible for completing the first task requirement, which is the target of adding five more Jindan members.

As for the latter, he is responsible for the second requirement, which is to supervise the progress of the additional five thousand peripheral members.

But Guo Poyun is very sensible. Before making some important decisions, he will never go around Liu Yu and will always "discuss" them in advance.

In the attic hall, two people were sitting and standing.

"I failed to win over the Feng family this time and made the helmsman's trip in vain. His subordinates cannot absolve themselves of the blame."

"Please, the helmsman, punish me!"

The smile disappeared from Tian Xiaoyu's face, and she cheered up and took the initiative to plead guilty.

As the person in charge who planned and was responsible for this matter, this operation was not successful despite consuming manpower and material resources. Although there were no mistakes in the process, she was indeed to blame.

Along the way, this woman was trying to force a smile, feeling extremely uneasy in her heart.
