Chapter 59: Battle of the Chu Sect
"Pei Huoyu, what do you want!"
The vitality of the foundation-building monk was extremely strong, and his brains were piled together, but his spiritual thoughts were still beating.
Flowing Fire roared.
Although weapon refiners are often complimented by their peers, this does not include encountering madmen.
"Give me back the Five Elements Mountain!"
"..."
Liuhuo roared repeatedly, trying to break free from the body bound by the five-color rope, but no matter how he mobilized the fire spirit power in his body, not only could he not break free, but the five-color rope tightened even tighter.
One can only be horrified by the terror of Pei Huoyu's strength.
"You died outside first. I have been waiting for you for several years and still can't get it. Who's to blame? Who made you provoke other foundation-building monks outside?"
Pei Huoyu grabbed the blood-stained bronze tripod. He was not good at close combat, but he was too angry today.
"Which auction, who is hosting it."
"What do you want to do?"
Feeling the murderous intent in Pei Huoyu's eyes, Liu Huo was startled.
Is this madman willing to do anything for a second-level low-grade magic weapon?
"Don't tell me!"
"Bang bang bang!"
"Say it or not! Say it or not!"
"puff!"
"Stop, stop, I said, I said, yes..."
"Ah... Pei Huoyu, how dare you..."
"puff!"
A scream suddenly stopped, and only the fire cage formation rising around the hall was steaming. Pei Huoyu stood up and threw away the bronze tripod, looking at the corpse at his feet with cold eyes.
After hesitating for a moment, he began to collect the things in the hall, including the bones.
Finally, he pulled out the jade talisman that controlled the formation in the palace.
The fiery formation stopped running for a while. The Yanyang Cultivator who was waiting outside to listen to the movement did not notice the brief stoppage of the formation.
This large formation is a second-level mid-level formation. When operating at full strength, it can block and suppress late-stage foundation-building monks. In the entire Nine Layers Immortal City, not many people can open this formation from the outside.
People outside had no idea what was going on inside and could only wait for the formation to stop operating.
But there is a general guess that Master Liuhuo took the picture of Wuxing Mountain. It happened to be that Wuxing Mountain had been photographed more than ten times in a row before.
Unexpectedly, it was finally auctioned, and the real owner who was rumored to have died outside came back.
…
A quarter of an hour later.
Outside the fifth-floor auction venue.
After combing his clothes again, Pei Huoyu walked toward the auction house.
Less than half an hour later.
There was a roar and explosion in the auction venue, and a spiritual light several feet in size exploded in the air, razing the surrounding buildings to the ground.
"Start the formation and kill this little boy!"
Wenshan, the foundation-building monk who presided over the auction of the Immortal City, exploded into the sky with a red arrow in his hand, illuminating the Nine Layers Immortal City.
The red arrow exploded, making countless monks in the immortal city look up in horror.
This is the letter arrow that opens the city defense formation.
Over the years since the establishment of the Immortal City, it has not been used several times before and after. Each time it was activated only when a foundation-building monk took action in the city.
Lines of spiritual light rose up in the fairy city, forming light curtains that were about to surround the sky.
Boom!
At the closed formation, a bolt of lightning erupted, forming a thunder ball dozens of feet in size in the air, blasting a large hole in the formation.
"Breaking the Forbidden Bead!"
Seeing this scene, Wenshan looked startled.
"If you dare to cause trouble in the fairy city, chase me!"
A whistling sound broke through the air, and several streams of light rose into the sky from all over the fairy city, chasing in the direction of the cracked hole in the formation.
…
Night falls.
The foundation-building monks who chased him back returned, and together they came to the highest point of the Nine-layer Immortal City.
There is only a thousand-foot stone city here.
The stone city was built along the rock wall, with a main hall at the end half embedded in the mountain rock wall.
At this moment, more than a dozen foundation-building monks gathered outside the main hall.
The leader was wearing a gorgeous robe, and he was not angry but proud of himself.
"Wenshan, have you been caught?"
"Report it to the Great Elder and let him run away. This traitor is very powerful. Although he is only in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, his combat power is not weaker than that in the later stage of Foundation Establishment."
Wenshan lowered his head and spoke.
"What's going on?"
"This thief previously entrusted the city's weapon refiner Liuhuo..."
"Liu Huo is dead." The leading elder said calmly, "I went to Yanyang Residence where Liu Huo was, opened the operating formation, and found that the palace had been looted long ago. This person first looked for Liu Huo, and then went to find Liu Huo. "
"Are you going to mobilize so many troops for a second-level magic weapon?"
Everyone present here are all Foundation Establishment monks, and they are a little confused at this moment. One or two thousand spiritual stones are nothing, in the eyes of Foundation Establishment, they are nothing.
"I heard Liu Huo say before that the magic weapon that this thief asked him to refine was the Five Elements spiritual material that came with it. Could it be that there are other things hidden in the Five Elements spiritual material? But Liu Huo has been immersed in the art of refining weapons for more than a hundred years, no? Maybe you can’t tell the mystery of the spiritual material.”
Wenshan frowned.
The leading elder glanced at the crowd and said, "The city owner has been in seclusion for many years, making people think that it's time for our fairy city to change its owner. Now a rogue cultivator has appeared in the city and killed the weapon refiner and left. This matter cannot be left alone. ”
"Pei Huoyu will continue to hunt for this thief, and a reward will be issued. Any monk who finds his traces will be rewarded."
"Great Elder, messengers from Bishui Sect and Tianyang Sect have come many times, and I don't know how to reply to them."
"Tell them that the city lord is practicing in seclusion and will not interfere with the conquests between the sects in the Chu Kingdom. As long as the three sects do not fight within the scope of the Immortal City, none of us will help."
"Grand Elder, the city lord has been in seclusion for more than 20 years. Now the three sects of Chu are about to go to war. Should we ask the city lord to come out and take charge of the situation?"
Seeing everyone's eyes focused on him, the leading elder also showed hesitation.
It's okay for a normal Jindan cultivator to practice in seclusion, but for a fake Dan cultivator, except for comprehending spells, his realm can no longer be improved. Who can not be suspicious of seclusion for 20 years?
Not to mention, there have been rumors that the city lord's life span is not much.
For a moment, everyone's eyes turned to the hall embedded in the rock wall behind.
Inside the hall is a cave opened in the mountain, and the city lord Qiushan Zhenren is in seclusion in the cave.
...
"City Lord, we want to see you."
After a glance, the group came to the outside of the hall and bowed respectfully.
Now the situation in Chu has changed suddenly, and the three major sects that used to be harmonious have shown signs of fighting each other.
As an independent fairy city outside the sect, it has been affected.
At this time, only the appearance of the city lord can deter the villains and stabilize the overall situation.
"The situation in Chu is critical. Please ask the city lord to come out and take charge of the overall situation."
The group of people prostrated outside the hall and repeatedly requested.
But there was no movement in the hall.
In the past, they would also ask the city lord for instructions. Although the city lord would not come out, he would also send a message.
Once a sect war broke out in Chu, the fairy city outside the independent sect would inevitably be affected. This major event related to the development and inheritance of the fairy city should not be ignored by the city lord.
"Grand Elder."
After repeated requests, there was no movement in the hall. Everyone looked at the leading elder.
The leading elder looked back at the people behind him. After a look, the leading elder stood up and walked towards the hall.
Rumble——
The closed door of the hall was pushed open. Inside was a cave deep into the mountain. Spirit fire candlesticks were embedded on both sides. It was extremely quiet.
"City Lord, I have something to report."
After making another move, the leading elder walked boldly towards the depths of the cave, all the way to the innermost place blocked by the khaki formation.
...
"City Lord!"
When the formation dissipated, deep in the cave, on a lotus stone platform, a skinny figure wearing a wide robe sat cross-legged.
The head drooped, lifeless.
"City Lord!"
More than a dozen figures looked at the figure on the stone platform, and couldn't help shaking their bodies, with only one thought left in their minds.
It's over!
Without the city lord sitting in the city, Jiuchong Xiancheng is no longer an independent force.
Bishui Sect, Youhuang Valley, and Tianyang Sect will all control them at will.
The next three sects will fight, and the Xiancheng will be in danger.
...
Wanxinghai, Qianye Island.
After Shen Lian entered the city, he was not in a hurry to sell the pills he made. He focused on going around the shops in the city and buying some herbs.
After some indirect inquiries, he learned that within the Qianye League, the elixir business was mainly monopolized by the two major foundation-building families in the league, the Bai Family and the Lu Family.
Apart from these two families, there were not many scattered first-level alchemists.
The main reason was that the level of cultivation within Qianye Island was not high, and it was far away from the central sea area of the Wanxing Sea, so there were no powerful fake elixir or even golden elixir families or sects.
There were no strong enemies outside, and several foundation-building families inside monopolized the cultivation resources in this sea area.
He wanted to sell elixirs within Qianye Island for a long time, and he would inevitably run into the Bai Family and the Lu Family.
"Alas..."
Standing outside a medicine garden in the city, Shen Lian sighed softly.
He was going to break his promise.
I still remember that I was indignant at the time and wanted to help the casual cultivators to lower the price of elixirs.
Now that I have become an alchemist, I still have to face the reality of the beating.
"What do you need, customer?"
When Shen Lian sighed, a woman in a blue dress came out of the store with a smile.
Under the long skirt, the white shoes with lotus and cloud patterns moved lightly, and a spiritual light bloomed under her feet.
Not only did the lotus bloom under her feet, but her upper body also swayed with every step, and the surging ocean made Shen Lian dizzy as soon as it came up.
