Chapter 205: The War Spreads
Chapter 205 The War Spreads
The Jiang family is located in the western part of the southern part of Liang, and it's the closest Immortal Cultivation family to the border of the Beacon Kingdom. As long as the frontline battlefield collapses.
The territory of the Jiang Family will definitely be reduced to a localized battlefield!
"The Jiang Clan's marketplace and quite a few of its properties have been requisitioned by the clan to provide logistics for the frontline. The Jiang Clan has paid quite a price to defend their land. Even Jiang Yichen, who was extremely poorly connected, was invited back to the clan."
Fairy Shi recounted the current situation of the Jiang family.
This is no longer an ordinary trouble, but a calamity.
"Jiang Yichen has severed his ties with the Jiang Clan for so many years, and at a critical moment, he was able to return to the clan for assistance?"
Lu Chang'an said with some surprise.
"Jiang Yichen's relationship with the clan's top echelon hasn't really eased. However, he has a blood brother within the clan who has a good relationship with each other."
"It is rumored that Jiang Yichen's killing of his adoptive mother and scrapping his biological father's cultivation in his early years had something to do with his brother's humiliation."
Fairy Master wasn't too sure, after all, it was a rumor.
Back then, when the Teng Xing Chamber of Commerce opposed Shen Bixin and Jiang Yichen being together, one of the reasons was that they thought that this person was radical in nature.
Lu Changan secretly said, Jiang Yichen is also unlucky enough, lost his beloved woman, and now the family is facing great difficulties.
However, the Jiang family and Jiang Yichen's misfortune was good news for Lu Chang'an and Fairy Shi.
Jiang Yichen's bad condition and lack of confidence made it easier for him to loosen his tongue and agree to the demands.
......
Half a month later.
"Brother Lu."
Accompanied by the sound of a wind chime-like woman, a bright and pure girl in a beautiful yellow dress landed on Little Turtle Peak on a flying bird.
Qi Feng, who is responsible for guarding the mountain, sensed that the yellow-skirted girl's spiritual pressure seemed to be stronger than that of Grandpa Lu's, and was surprised.
"Ah Feng! This is Miss Zhou, quickly open the formation."
By the pool, Lan Rou reminded.
Qi Feng hurriedly answered and took out the formation order, allowing Zhou Qingxuan to enter.
Zee!
An orange and purple rat demon emerged from Zhou Qingxuan's spirit pet pouch.
Squeak!
The rat demon was only the size of an ordinary puppy, and its eyes blossomed with a cold light as it stared at the unfamiliar burly man.
Hiss!
Qi Feng's mind was struck by a heavy blow and his face turned pale.
The Fierce Qi oppression emanating from the rat demon in front of him had just reached the peak of the second stage!
Qi Feng had never encountered such a strong demonic beast in his life.
"Not bad, after not seeing you for a few months, not only has your cultivation increased by a fraction, you have also learned the 'Shrinking Technique'."
Lu Chang'an appeared not far away, surveying the Earth Rock Rat, which was even more "pocketable" than before, and nodded with a smile.
In the past, as its cultivation level rose, the Earth Rock Rat was even larger than a mundane tiger or leopard.
This time, when he came back from the Imperial Beast Zhou Family, he actually learned a demonic beast spell.
The Shrinking Technique is a generalized spell, and it is not that easy for a second stage demonic beast with poor comprehension to learn it.
Whoosh!
The ground rock rat swept through a shadow, rubbing against Lu Changan's pants leg intimately, seemingly expressing its longing for the months of separation.
"I heard that you are living a good life in the Zhou family, how many lovers do you have? Still know to come back ah."
Lu Changan smiled and patted its head, secretly probing.
There is no abnormality in the body of the ground rock rat, for example, it has been left behind by the Royal Beasts Zhou Family with a hidden means.
After the baptism of the "Blood Spirit Pool", the bloodline of the ground rock rat has slightly increased, but it is not obvious.
Nowadays, the bloodline of the Earth Rock Rat is considered to be of a good grade, almost at the middle level of the upper grade.
"Big brother Lu, the ground rock rat ended up taking the initiative to come back. As a demonic beast, having this kind of self-control is already rare."
Zhou Qingxuan covered her mouth and laughed lightly.
Afterwards, she spoke about the specific situation of the ground rock rat in the Zhou family.
Even after going to the Zhou Family's Beast Garden, the strength of the Ground Rock Rats was top-notch, and they were even more dominant amongst the Rat Demons.
The ground rock rat is from the Zhou family of imperial beasts, and when it meets its former acquaintances, it feels very close to them.
Those rat demons, who were very pleased with the ground rock rat, served it very comfortably.
"By the way, did the ground rock rat leave any bloodline heirs in the Zhou family?"
Lu Changan's heart stirred.
This was a matter that he had forgotten to instruct, or had not put too much thought into it.
"Alas, our Zhou family does want to breed. However, we've entertained it for so long, but it hasn't conceived a single seed." Zhou Qingxuan said bitterly.
The Earth Rock Rat's bloodline had been mutated and its battle power was not bad. The Zhou family naturally wanted to breed and multiply their bloodline, but unfortunately it didn't work out.
"This is a bit like......"
Zhou Qingxuan's pretty eyes fluttered, realizing something, and swallowed the latter half of her sentence.
"Like what?"
Lu Chang'an stared at her expressionlessly.
"Ah! Qingxuan is saying that the Ground Rock Rats are untutored and super intelligent, and have the demeanor of Big Brother Lu."
Zhou Qingxuan's eyes were clear and moist as she charmingly took Lu Changan's arm.
......
Five days later.
Little Turtle Peak, inside the cave.
Zhou Qingxuan, dressed in a snow-white veil, tidied up her messy hair temples.
She looked at the white-robed man in front of her with anger and grudges, and said quietly:
"Brother Lu, Liang has already been caught in the quagmire of the Immortal Cultivation War, and in the next few years, the flames of war may burn to all parts of the territory."
"Our Royal Beast Zhou Family, with our backs to the Black Mist Mountain Range branch, and not far from the 'Jing Kingdom', we can enter and retreat freely. You really do not intend to consider......"
"There's no need to say more, I have my own plans."
Lu Chang'an was resolute.
Rationally speaking, him joining the Imperial Beast Zhou Clan was also a way out.
The Imperial Beast Zhou Family is interested in his secret of breeding spirit beasts.
Zhou Qingxuan was constrained by Lu Chang'an and wanted to get closer to him, preferably by giving birth to an heir, so that she could feel more at ease.
However, both Lu Changan and the Ground Rock Rat refused to leave seeds for the Zhou family.
"In the next few years, the family will have to prepare for the war and plan for Qingxuan's dan formation. During this period, I'm afraid I won't have many opportunities to communicate with Big Brother Lu......."
Zhou Qingxuan pursed her pink lips and carefully said.
"Go at ease! As long as you keep the Heart Demon Oath, Mister Lu won't break his promise either."
Lu Chang'an knew this woman's concern.
Zhou Qingxuan was worried that Lu Changan was controlling and wouldn't allow her to impact the JieDan.
Once she succeeds in attaining dan, especially if she achieves true dan, Zhou Qingxuan will have the possibility to counteract her.
Zhou Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief when she was granted permission.
Lu Changan did not stop her from condensing the dan, so it was clear that he did not have any real ill intentions.
"Brother Lu saved Qingxuan's life. If she is lucky enough to achieve pills in the future, Qingxuan will definitely return the favor."
"Please take care of Big Brother Lu."
Before saying goodbye, Zhou Qingxuan's eyes were misty with water and she reluctantly hugged Lu Changan deeply.
"Don't worry, I won't die."
Lu Chang'an didn't know how much true love this woman had, but not wanting to die herself was real.
If Lu Chang'an died, the compulsion ban in Zhou Qingxuan's sea of consciousness would explode without his spell to stabilize it.
The compulsion restraints left behind by the Hundred Souls Compulsion are at a very high level, and even a real person at the late stage of the JieDan stage would not be able to dissolve them with a high degree of certainty.
Even if Zhou Qingxuan was promoted to JieDan, there was nothing she could do about it.
Even if Zhou Qingxuan was promoted to the stage of Dan, she could not do anything about it.
Only when Lu Changan reached Dan and possessed the corresponding method would he be able to dissolve it.
The Black Mist Mountain Range is not far from Wu Qi Mountain.
Lu Chang'an would extend the duration of the ban in the future. Zhou Qingxuan only needs to come every other year, or Lu Changan can come close to the Royal Beast Zhou Clan and cast a spell from afar.
......
"The likelihood of this woman advancing to True Dan is not high."
After Zhou Qingxuan left, Lu Changan's eyes flickered as he fell into thought.
After the Hundred Constant Soul Compulsion was detached, Zhou Qingxuan's Sea of Consciousness was traumatized and her foundation was injured by Huang Long Zhenzi, which would affect the condensation of the dan.
The existence of the compulsion's prohibition was also a form of psychological pressure.
Like an invisible sword and axe, it hangs over one's head at all times.
"I wonder where the Zhou Family's conjugation plotting has gotten to?"
Lu Chang'an had a few moments of curiosity.
Being a man and leaving a thread, he wasn't greedy enough to force Zhou Qingxuan to hand over the item of conjugation.
Besides, most of them were contributed by the Zhou Family, not Zhou Qingxuan's personal belongings.
The Zhou family's power wasn't weak, there was a True Dan level third-order spirit beast of the Zhen Clan, even if it was close to being old. There must be more than one quasi third-order spirit beast.
Lu Changan did not lack Crystal Condensation Pills.
Unless it was a Fine Grade Crystal Condensation Pill, which affected the quality of the Condensation Pill, it would be a huge temptation for him. Lu Chang'an already had a Genuine Crystal Condensation Pill and a share of up to 80% of the Crystal Condensation Pill's materials.
This material originally came from Master Zhuo of the "Night Fisherman".
Originally, it was 70% of the materials, and the rest was very scarce.
In recent years, Lu Chang'an has been able to gather one or two items, reaching more than 80%.
The most crucial main medicine, "Seven Core Xuan Yue Flower", was traded with Huang Long Zhen, and he learned that the other party had a share of it, but he didn't have any news after that.
Lu Chang'an doesn't necessarily need to get the Seven-core Xuan Yue Flower.
He has a high share of materials, including some rare auxiliary drugs.
In the future, when there is an opportunity, you can cooperate with someone to make pills, or directly trade Crystal Condensation Pills.
At the late stage of Foundation Establishment, trading Crystal Condensation Pills with others is not a small risk.
If it is a False Pill real person, then it is a bit more secure.
......
Half a year later.
At the peak of Little Turtle Peak, a fluctuation of mana at the ninth level of Qi Refining surged.
"Breakthrough!"
Inside a wooden hut built separately on the mountain, Qi Feng sat in a coiled position and ran his energy, his face glowing with joy.
Before coming to Wu Qi Mountain, he had been settling at the eighth level of Qi Refining for several years.
In the last year, his life has had a lot of ups and downs, he was wanted by the sect, escaped from a desperate situation, and became the guardian of the Little Turtle Peak.
He enjoys the superior second-stage spirit vein dojo, and receives guidance and rewards from a high-ranking person at the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
With a solid foundation, he was like a fish in water, and he rose to the ninth level of Qi Refining faster than expected.
"This son's qualifications are unusual, just close to the middle grade spiritual root, but his mind and will are still okay, there is still some future strength."
Inside the cave's talisman room, Lu Changan paid attention to Qi Feng's breakthrough.
Thinking that among his righteous father's descendants, there was a passable immortal seedling, he felt slightly gratified.
Lu Chang'an was concerned about Qi Feng's breakthrough.
Lu Chang'an withdrew his attention, holding an ancient greenish-gray talisman brush in his hand, stained with crimson spirit ink, and sketching on the quasi-third-stage talisman paper in a flowing stream.
After a long time, precise rune veins and spiritual light penetrated the rune paper.
A powerful spiritual pressure flashed by, making the hearts of the Foundation Establishment cultivators tremble with fear.
A quasi third-order talisman was drawn successfully.
For Lu Changan's cultivation and divine sense nowadays, drawing a quasi third-order talisman had a high success rate, only that the materials were not that sufficient.
As for third-order talismans, Lu Changan's divine sense and mana were lacking, especially mana.
Two years ago, he purchased a third-order mid-grade spirit wood at the auction, and so far he hadn't taken any materials to use it, occasionally using his mana to contain it.
Lu Changan had speculated: in his current state, he could at most refine a third-order lower-grade treasure talisman or talisman, and it would be unstable and more or less wasteful.
The treasure talismans that he had cultivated were more than ten that had reached the power of the lower third rank, which was not very scarce.
Therefore, Lu Changan planned to wait a few years until he was in a better state and the conditions were ripe.
For example, the quasi third-order talisman pen he was using now could increase his chances of winning if he replaced it with a third-order talisman pen.
......
"Grandpa Lu, the Zheng Clan's old ancestor is visiting."
Three days later, Qi Feng, who had stabilized his cultivation, entered the cave to report.
"Let them come in."
Lu Changan's divine sense, swept towards the outer door and said indifferently.
Over the years, the Zheng family had acted as his eyes and ears, helping to run errands, collect materials, and occasionally deal with matters that were not seen by the light of day.
"Zheng Wu (Sheng), meet Master Lu Fu."
Zheng Centipede's face was old, his skin was dark, his body was not as sturdy as in previous years, and he was a bit stooped.
Behind him is a middle-aged scholar, elegant and handsome, is the Iron Apricot Villa Zheng family's newest Foundation Stage ancestor "Zheng Sheng", as the Grand Elder.
Zheng Sheng is a second-ranked talisman master at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, and Lu Chang'an has met him once or twice.
Zheng Centipede's successor at the Foundation Establishment stage was trained by Zheng Centipede with his heart and soul.
"Fellow Daoist Zheng, have you decided?"
Lu Changan asked.
"When I was young, I fought a lot of people, and I have a lot of dark diseases, so I only have twenty to thirty years left to live. As long as I can mitigate the losses for my family, this old life will be enough to pay for itself even if I lose it on the battlefield."
The corners of Zheng Centipede's mouth grinned, perhaps because his face was too old, nowadays, his smile was no longer as hideous as it was back then. "Then I wish you, Taoist Zheng, success on the frontline, to defend Liang's cultivation world from foreign enemies, and to work for the welfare of our children and grandchildren."
Lu Chang'an did not dissuade.
He sensed Zheng Centipede's death wish.
For the Zheng family, and even Zheng Centipede, this might be the best choice.
Just three months ago.
Liang's frontline army collapsed, and the southern borderline was breached by the Beacon Kingdom's Immortal Cultivation forces.
The Golden Sun Sect led the Beacon Kingdom's cultivator army and officially entered Liang's territory.
The Jiang family, one of the seven great families, suffered heavy losses as their land was captured. If not for their timely evacuation, they would have almost been wiped out.
The Jiang family's land has now become an important base for the cultivators of the Beacon Kingdom.
The war has reached the interior of Liang, and the fate of every immortal cultivating force is closely related.
The Liang clans have increased their recruitment efforts.
Foundation-building clans like the Zheng Clan either sent a Foundation-building cultivator or a larger number of late-stage Qi Refining, including talisman masters, dan masters, and other skillful people, to the front lines to support them.
If Zheng Centipede, as a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, went to the frontline himself, the other clan cultivators could go less.
Otherwise, a large number of young and strong cultivators dying in battle would shake the foundation of the clan.
"Rune Master Lu, this is the war intelligence gathered recently."
Zheng Sheng, the Grand Elder of the Zheng Clan, respectfully handed a jade cylinder to Lu Chang'an.
In the past, this kind of thing was mostly done by Zheng Centipede himself.
Lu Chang'an took the jade cylinder and checked the information in it.
The Zheng Clan was just one of the channels through which he obtained information.
Lu Changan would only go to Tian Zhi Lou at more critical points.
"So far in the war, none of Liang's YuanYing True Lords have exchanged blows?"
"No, I have only heard that Lord Li Huo and the Golden Sun Sect's YuanYing True Lords have confronted each other, and both sides were relatively restrained."
Zheng Sheng replied.
Lu Changan nodded slightly, if Yuan Ying True Lords fought, it would be hard to hide that kind of power and movement.
Some years ago, he learned from Tian Zhi Lou's Grade A intelligence that the Yuan Ying True Lord of Li Huo Palace was extremely injured and nearly perished, and it would be difficult to heal without twenty years
From the estimation of time, the Leaving Fire Lord's injury is not yet healed, at least not in full bloom.
The Golden Sun Sect's YuanYing True Monarch, who hadn't been seriously injured and was in better shape, didn't take advantage of the fire.
Lu Chang'an vaguely sensed that the Golden Sun Sect wanted to fulfill its strategic intent and try to preserve its vitality in order to deal with future variables.
......
Half an hour later, Lu Chang'an made a deal with the two Zheng Clan's Foundation Builders.
He sold some second-order talismans, including a second-order lower-grade puppet.
Zheng Centipede asked Lu Changan to take care of the Zheng Family in the future.
Lu Changan, who is in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, is considered to be a great cultivator of the same level, and he has powerful connections in the Golden Cloud Valley.
The Zheng family regarded Lu Chang'an as their backer, and would respectfully follow their orders.
Lu Chang'an could only say a silent apology, and his care for the Zheng family might have to stop here.
The Zheng Centipede's experience reminds Lu Changan of the Fei Yuehu Mu family.
The Mu family has more young and strong cultivators, and has sent some to the front line.
Li Erqing was also forcibly recruited, but fortunately did not go to the front line of the battlefield, but to assist in rectifying the security and stability of the rear of the battlefield, and cleaning up the enemy Immortal Cultivation World's scouts.
This is still the clan has a relationship, to help him move a little.
......
A few days later.
A sound transmission note flew over from Little Plate Peak.
Lu Chang'an received the sound transmission note and heard the voice inside, a smirk appeared on his face.
"Jiang Yuchen was seriously injured on the frontline and managed to escape back?"
Nowadays, the Jiang family has lost their clan lands, and the clansmen have fled and died.
This time, Jiang Yichen's tone was much softer, and had his clan members send a message that he would take the initiative to come to Witch Qi Mountain and talk sincerely.
Thinking of this son's initial lion's share, Lu Chang'an seemed to see a youth who had endured the poisonous beatings of society.
See some readers say, how many thousands of words did not end Dan. In fact, in the word count progress, no big problem, although the middle of the foundation did write a long point. This book was conceived at the beginning, up to write to the immortal, but also eight or nine realms, according to the current progress, full counting also write 3 million words, which is not counting the general write to the back, because of the repetition of content, may be appropriate to accelerate. General mortal stream, can be written to the God stage are considered conscientious, not to mention longevity stream. You can look at the author's list of works, no matter how good or bad the results, there is not a book less than 2 million words.
