Chapter 778 The situation on the front line

Chapter 778 The Situation on the Frontline

"Could it be that the remaining two people retreated due to Nangong Tian's reputation?"

Thinking about this, Liu Yu glanced at Kong Zhao without any trace.

This thought flashed through their minds at the same time, and their expressions gradually became serious.

On the front line of the battle between humans and monsters, even Nascent Soul cultivators must be cautious.

The Nascent Soul of a human monk is a great tonic for the Demon King, and its effect is no less than that of the spiritual beings of heaven and earth.

What's more, he may also face the threat of a great monk.

Thinking about it this way, it was only natural that Huang Mei and the two chose to retreat.

However, if they lose the mid-term combat power of the two Nascent Souls, they will have to reconsider whether to participate in this operation.

If the risk is too great, you can only give up this opportunity.

After all, although the treasure is good, it must be enjoyed with a life.

Accepting the invitation only shows that you are willing to take a certain risk, not that you are rushing to die!

"The Sword of Destruction must not be exposed. If the two mid-term True Lords both break their promises, I will have to give up on this trip."

This thought flashed through Liu Yu's mind.

For key resources, he is indeed willing to take risks, but if the risk is too great, he will also choose to retreat.

After all, he is only 291 years old. Compared with his life span of 1,600 years, he still has a lot of time to plan, so there is no need to rush.

Moreover, even if he only takes the elixir, his cultivation speed is far faster than that of other True Lords.

In the Gangfeng layer, the three of them were relatively speechless, quietly waiting for news about the remaining two.

But there was no movement in all directions.

As time passed, Liu Yu clearly felt that Mo Mei was losing her temper.

His consciousness glanced around, turning his head frequently to look left and right, not wanting to see the worst happen.

She obviously understood very well that if she lost the two most important combat forces, the two people present would not be able to retain them, and she would have to go on the road alone.

"Rumble"

The strong wind roared past, and two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

"Two fellow Taoists."

Mo Mei's heart sank to the bottom, and she forced a smile on her face to speak.

But midway through her words, she seemed to realize something and suddenly looked up and to the right.

Above and to the right of the three of them, in the second Gangfeng layer, a stream of Nascent Soul Spiritual Pressure approached extremely quickly, and its power was obviously stronger than anyone present.

"The Yellow Eyebrow True Monarch"

Sensing the aura, Mo Mei instantly knew the identity of the visitor. The joy on her face flashed away, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

As long as Huang Mei is still there, the overall strength of the team will not decline too much, and Qingyang and Kongzhao will not leave.

"Hahaha."

Before the people arrive, the sound comes first.

Before they could see the light, a cheerful smile had already reached the ears of the three of them.

Then a yellow ray of light appeared from the sky, revealing the plain-faced True Monarch with Yellow Eyebrows. He was wearing a yellow cedar, cupped his hands and said with a smile:

"Three fellow Taoists, we were delayed a lot of time due to a small matter on the way. Please don't take offense!"

"I'm very sorry."

The news that Mo Mei asked someone to help out is not a secret. He received a "friendly greeting" from Nangong Tian before setting off.

But after thinking about it again and again, I finally couldn't resist the temptation of "Huanzhen Dan". In order to break through the bottleneck in the later stage, I still chose to give it a try.

"Better late than never."

"It's just a little time, I don't care."

"Fellow Taoist Huangmei came as promised, and I am very grateful."

True Lord Mo Mei replied immediately.

Although one person is missing, Huang Mei is the strongest among the mid-term True Lords, so he is still very confident about this trip.

The agreed time has passed for a long time, but the other mid-term True Lord that was agreed upon at the beginning is still missing.

Thinking of Nangong Tian's "friendly greetings", True Lord Huangmei already knew this, but he still asked knowingly:

"Huh?"

"Why don't you see Fellow Taoist Yunshan?"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Yu and Kong Zhao had a tacit understanding, and both looked at Mo Mei.

The smaller the number of people, the weaker the overall strength of the team. When the danger remains unchanged, the greater the risk shared by everyone.

As a result, the originally agreed price is now somewhat inappropriate.

"Fellow Taoist Yunshan may have something important to do, but there is no news yet."

After a few breaths of silence, and understanding the deep meaning of the three people, True Lord Mo Mei's thoughts changed rapidly.

She did not insist, and immediately changed the topic and continued:

"But missing one person doesn't hurt."

"With the help of three Taoist friends, this trip is still a sure thing, so there is no need to worry."

"Since fellow Taoist Yunshan cannot arrive, his share of the reward will naturally be divided equally among the three fellow Taoists."

"Let's do this. The rewards for the three of us will be based on the original ones, and I would like to increase them a little more."

Due to the absence of "True Lord Yunshan" in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, Mo Mei obediently agreed to increase the reward.

On the basis of the original, three more pills are added to each person, corresponding to the level of elixirs for improving cultivation.

In the middle stage of Huangmei Yuanying, three "Ningzhen Pills" were added, while in the early stage of Liu Yu and Kongzhao Yuanying, three "Flying Immortal Pills" were added.

With these words, the subsequent communication between the four people was naturally harmonious.

Liu Yu, Kong Zhao, and Huang Mei immediately vowed that they would do their best when garrisoning the "Haoyue Fairy City".

The four of them gathered together and briefly discussed the details of the mission, then they all turned around and headed down to the mountain gate of the Alchemy Cauldron Sect.

"Whoosh~"

In the vast sky and earth, four rays of light flashed away.

Because the speed is so fast, if you don't observe carefully, you would almost think it is an illusion.

For safety reasons, none of the major Nascent Soul sects have set up teleportation arrays directly connected to each other.

This was to prevent enemy cultivators from riding in the teleportation formation and bypassing the defense of the sect-protecting formation to launch an attack.

Also for safety reasons, in order to prevent the demon clan from gathering high-level demon cultivators to raid, all major Nascent Soul sects have teleportation arrays that go directly to the "Five Elements Pass" to facilitate timely rescue in times of crisis.

Everything had been arranged, and under the guidance of Lord Mo Mei, Liu Yu and the others quickly boarded the teleportation array leading to the Five Elements Pass.

"Buzz~"

In the empty hall, with a violent fluctuation of spiritual energy, four figures disappeared in an instant.

…

His vision went dark, and he felt a strong sense of weightlessness.

When light appeared in front of him again, Liu Yu was already in the "Five Elements Pass", located in the Wood Elements Immortal City among the five giant fairy cities.

A slight feeling of dizziness still lingers on the physical body.

The original Yan Kingdom was located at the rear of the Seven Nations Alliance, and the Five Elements Pass was located in the middle of the Seven Nations Alliance. There was at least five to six hundred thousand miles of straight-line distance between the two places.

Therefore, this is considered a medium-distance teleportation, and the squeezing force of space is not small.

However, with the physique of the Nascent Soul cultivator and the protection of the "teleportation talisman", this pressure is naturally nothing.

Liu Yu just turned his magic power, and the slight discomfort disappeared immediately.

In an instant, his consciousness spread out quietly, taking in a panoramic view of the surrounding scene.

In front of him was a large hall with a hint of solemnity.

The length and width are tens of feet, and the height is about twenty feet, about the size of dozens of basketball courts.

If ordinary people stand in the main hall, they will inevitably feel a sense of insignificance.

In the main hall, there is only a teleportation array at the foot, which connects the major sects.

Because the relationship between this formation is so important, a separate guard is set up, and there are no low-level monks present.

There were only a few Jindan standing guard outside the hall.

"Greetings to all seniors!"

"Seniors, if you have anything important to do, please just tell the juniors."

Sensing the movement, the three Jin Dan on duty outside the hall immediately entered the hall, bent down and saluted respectfully.

"Back off."

Mo Mei waved her hand casually.

"Let's go."

The eyes of Liu Yu and the four people met, but they had no intention of communicating with the Jindan monk. The next moment, they all walked out of the teleportation array and walked out of the hall.

The teleportation array connecting the major sects is of great importance, so it is set up at the core of the fairy city, where few monks usually come.

After leaving the main hall, the four of them gathered their aura and spiritual pressure, and not long after walking along the street, they saw the true face of the Five Elements Pass.

Looking around, the streets are bustling with people, and there are figures of immortal cultivators everywhere.

In Liu Yu's spiritual consciousness, the spiritual pressure and aura of low-level monks were tens of thousands.

Tiannan has a vast territory, and there are numerous large and small immortal cultivating forces. Even if each force only sends a small number of cultivators, the number gathered is extremely amazing!

The number of immortal cultivators who come and go in the five immortal cities that make up the "Five Elements Pass" every day is at least six figures.

In some special periods, a certain fairy city can even approach seven figures!

After all, the Five Elements Pass was created with the efforts of the three major alliances and brought together the essence of the entire Tiannan!

These five fairy cities are where the fate of the Tiannan people lies. Once they are lost, the consequences will be disastrous. They are indeed the most important line of defense.

It was the time of the war between monsters and monsters, and there were a large number of immortal cultivators coming and going every day, leading to the Five Elements Pass to perform tasks, or hunting monsters to accumulate the resources needed for advancement.

Although the roads are spacious and well-planned, the flow of people on some streets is still almost overwhelming.

However, although the number of people was large, it still did not violate the law of scarcity of high-level monks.

While walking, Liu Yu glanced around randomly.

I saw thousands of immortal cultivators, more than 90% of whom were in the Qi-refining stage, and only a small number were in the foundation-building stage.

Even at Five Elements Pass, the number of Golden elixir monks has only increased, but the proportion is still not beyond common sense. Compared with low-level monks, they are rare.

As for the Nascent Soul Lord, it is still rare to see him.

In Muxingxian City, Liu Yu used his spiritual sense to roughly sense it, but he could only detect a dozen or so Nascent Soul auras.

"The number and proportion of high-level monks are far from being comparable to Daqian's "Shenjing"."

"If the Five Elements Pass is placed in the Central Region, it will be equivalent to some Central Region continental cities, equivalent to five continental cities."

"But this level gathers the essence of the entire Tiannan Immortal Cultivation World."

"This shows the huge gap between Tiannan and Zhongyu."

Looking around, Liu Yu flashed this idea.

The number of people is slightly larger than that of Zhongyuzhou City, but the proportion of high-level monks is slightly lower than that of Zhongyuzhou City.

Although the Five Elements Pass only condenses part of Tiannan's power, it does not represent all of it.

But a glimpse of the leopard can also explain a lot of things.

Last time he returned to the sect in a hurry, he didn't have time to take a closer look. At this time, Liu Yu took a stroll and carefully observed this most important line of defense.

The five fairy cities correspond to the five elements, and their architectural features are very distinctive.

Most of the buildings in Muxingxian City are dark green or light green.

Everywhere you look, there are colorful buildings, even the city walls are green.

The elements of gold, fire, water, and earth correspond to gold, red, blue, and yellow. The four fairy cities have completely different styles inside and outside.

In the Muxingxian City, the wood attribute aura in the space is particularly rich and active, while other attribute auras are relatively rare and silent, which is obviously due to the formation.

Looking from a distance, the feeling is very different from looking inside the fairy city.

vitality!

This is Liu Yu’s first impression of Five Elements Pass.

The streets were crowded with people. Although the monks looked sad or happy, perhaps because of the good publicity, the overall attitude was relatively positive, with an "upward" atmosphere.

At first glance, Liu Yu felt the vitality of the "Five Elements Pass".

After all, the life span of low-level monks is short, and the future of the Tiannan Immortal Realm is still too far away for them.

They cannot see the distant future, they can only see what they see and hear in the present.

Under the propaganda of the three major alliances, this is an era where risks and opportunities coexist.

Those monks who survived the front line and accumulated enough resources to be promoted will be highlighted in publicity to mobilize the enthusiasm of lower-level monks to participate in the war.

Especially those who get the opportunity to soar into the sky during the war will be held up as a benchmark.

As for those monks who died in obscurity, the shocking number of casualties were selectively covered up and not known to the vast majority of monks.

Liu Yu shook his head slightly, without comment, and looked up at the center of the fairy city.

In the center of Muxingxian City, there stood a hundred-foot-tall statue of "True Lord Chonglou" with a sharp look in his eyes and a solemn look on his face.

One hand holds the sword forward to symbolize killing, and the other hand holds the five fingers backward to symbolize summons.

The huge statue is located in the center of the fairy city, surrounded by an open area. No matter you enter the fairy city from any direction, you can see the "True Lord Chonglou" and recall the glorious history of the Tiannan human race.

One hundred feet, which is equivalent to Liu Yu's height of more than 330 meters in his previous life.

Flying is not allowed in the fairy city. Only by looking up from a distance can you see the full picture of the statue.

Looking up, the impact of this scene was extremely strong, inspiring countless low-level monks.

The huge spiritual consciousness of three hundred and forty miles spread. Liu Yu was not limited to Muxing Immortal City, but also observed the other four immortal cities dozens of miles away.

"The five fairy cities are connected to each other, and the power of the formation has broken through to the fifth level."

"Even the "Ten Thousand Demons Array" is nothing more than this."

"Unless a demon god takes action, it is almost impossible to break through."

"At present, the intensity of the human-monster war is on a downward trend. It is unlikely to rise suddenly. The gods should not take action."

After observing for a while, Liu Yu thought silently.

Immediately, he withdrew his gaze and walked along the street in a low profile.

Because they deliberately restrained their spiritual pressure and did not reveal their Nascent Soul stage cultivation, the appearance of the four people did not cause a sensation.

Using people's money to eliminate disasters, Liu Yu and the others were located in Mo Mei and were more professional than the Imperial Forbidden Army, giving them a full sense of security.

"tread"

Along the street, the four people walked neither fast nor slowly, and soon left from the North City Gate.

The four rays of light flashed away and quickly disappeared into the Gangfeng layer, leaving the Five Elements Pass and heading towards Haoyue Immortal City.

Outside the Five Elements Pass, the gathering place for immortal cultivators sometimes falls.

In order to prevent the demon clan from launching a surprise attack through the teleportation array, there was no teleportation array directly connected to the Five Elements Pass.

Even among the major fairy cities, there are no directly connected teleportation arrays. They only communicate with the small and medium-sized gathering places under their jurisdiction within a certain period of time.

Of course, the three major alliances have other arrangements in this regard.

In a crisis situation, in order to dispatch reinforcements in time, one-way teleportation arrays, etc. can be considered.

It can be set up at any time whenever necessary.

…

Five Elements Pass is located in the center of the Seven Nations Alliance, with half of the Seven Nations Alliance territory on the left and right.

The Haoyue Immortal City is located to the north of Five Elements Pass, with a straight-line distance of about 200,000 miles.

The War between Humans and Monsters lasted for hundreds of years. As countries large and small fell one after another, a quarter to a third of the territory of the Seven Nations Alliance fell.

Hundreds of millions of people died at the mouth of monsters.

From the perspective of the entire Tiannan, the location of Haoyue Immortal City is very critical, and it can radiate tens of thousands of miles nearby.

As long as this city is not captured by the demon clan, elite monks can be continuously dispatched to reinforce the gathering places of small and medium-sized immortal cultivators.

Every time the demon clan advances, they will have to pay heavy casualties, and it is impossible to have an unstoppable situation.

Haoyue Immortal City is the veritable "heart" of the human race area with a radius of 20,000 miles.

This kind of radiation range is far larger than Qingzhou, Chu State.

Therefore, the importance of Haoyue Immortal City is only greater than that of the former Yuanyang Sect Mountain Gate.

In other words, once Haoyue Immortal City falls, the impact will be very serious.
