Chapter 483: All parties are scheming and the war begins!
"Senior Brother Qingping, what are you going to do?" asked Zhenren Zhaoxia.
Taoist Qingping hesitated for a moment and said, "Junior Sister Zhaoxia, can you go to Shenxiao Sword Sect?"
"What's the meaning?"
Master Chaoxia frowned slightly.
"You and I haven't done anything to offend True Lord Chimei, so there's still room for recovery. Now it depends on whether True Lord Chimei can consider our old friendship." Taoist Qingping sighed.
Since there are no bargaining chips for exchanging interests, we can only play the emotional card.
"I think it's difficult. Based on my understanding of Brother Chimei, he will never influence the decision between the states because of a little old friendship." Zhenren Zhaoxia's expression was not relaxed.
"You have to give it a try."
Master Zhaoxia finally nodded, "Well, I'll go and if I can't do it..."
"Then we can only leave it to fate." Taoist Qingping said in a somewhat bleak tone. When did the once-famous Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance actually fall to such a state? !
The world is really unpredictable.
…
Zhenren Zhaoxia did not act pretentiously. After leaving Taoist Qingping's cave, he immediately raised his sword and headed for Qinling Mountains. Because it was close, he arrived above Qinling Mountains in less than an hour.
Looking down from the sky,
The entire Qinling Mountains were covered by an inverted glazed light shield, making it impossible to see the scene inside.
This is the mountain protection formation being activated.
Logically speaking, with the Red Eyebrow True Lord in charge of the sect, no one would dare to come to Qinling to cause trouble, and there was no need to activate the Zhoutian Star Fighting Array.
Before the Red Eyebrow True Lord came, the formation had not yet been activated.
It seems abnormal, but it is not.
Before the arrival of True Lord Chimei, the Shenxiao Sword Sect was just a first-rate sect with limited resources, and could not support a large formation running day and night.
Spiritual stones can only be spent on the most important things.
After the arrival of Lord Chimei, the Shenxiao Sword Sect became the only super sect in the Central Continent.
Since the cards are up to par, the temple certainly cannot be shabby.
At this time, the mountain protection formation was activated day and night, not to guard against anyone, but to announce to all outsiders - "The Shenxiao Sword Sect's dojo, no entry without permission!"
If you want to enter or exit Qinling Mountains, you must hold a token.
Just like now, even if True Man Zhaoxia is a Three Tribulations True Immortal, when he arrives at Qinling Mountains, he can only go to Yingke Peak, the only mountain in the north of Qinling Mountains that is not within the range of the formation.
Wait!
Fortunately, True Lord Chimei had sensed True Lord Zhaoxia's arrival long ago and sent a boy to wait at the Welcoming Peak in advance. Otherwise, True Lord Zhaoxia would have to experience the pain of drinking tea and waiting.
This is the face of a super sect.
Led by the boy, True Man Zhaoxia came to Feilai Peak which was suspended in the air and met True Man Chimei.
"Brother Chimei!"
Zhenren Zhaoxia bowed gracefully.
When the Red Eyebrow True Lord caused trouble in Beimang Mountain last time, True Man Zhaoxia was not there. This was the first time the two met in more than two hundred years, so it was inevitable that there was some awkwardness.
"Junior sister, is there anything you need?" As the Red Eyebrow True Lord, there was naturally no need to be polite.
When you reach a certain level,
Instead, you speak directly without having to consider the other person's feelings.
"Yes," Zhaoxia Zhenren was here, so he was naturally prepared to sacrifice his face. "Brother, you should have heard about the recent turmoil in the Central Continent, right?"
"Are you referring to the dispute between Shu Kingdom and the Immortal Kingdom?" True Lord Chimei had already guessed something.
Qin Mo had a conversation with the Red Eyebrow Master before he left. Therefore, whenever any major event happened in the Central Continent, Han Fei would report it immediately.
Lord Chimei may not express his opinion, but at least he knows it.
"It's not just them," Zhaoxia Zhenren did not hide it, "Tang Kingdom received a request from Shu Kingdom, asking us to assist Shu Kingdom and hold back Minghe Kingdom."
"Does this have anything to do with the Xia Kingdom?" True Lord Chimei was a little confused. Although he was paying attention to the developments in the Central Continent, because he was a "newcomer", he did not have a thorough understanding of the subtle relationships between the countries in the Central Continent.
"Well……"
True Man Zhaoxia didn't know how to respond. He paused for a moment and said, "Let me be frank. Tang has no problem fighting against Minghe. I'm just afraid that Xia will interfere."
"so……"
Chimei Zhenjun understood that this person was begging for mercy, so he shook his head and said, "I can't make any promises to you."
“…”
True Man Zhaoxia did not expect that True Man Chimei would refuse so bluntly, leaving no room for maneuver.
I don't know how to continue the conversation.
"Although I cannot agree to Tang's request, I do have a suggestion that you can consider." Chimei Zhenjun said with a smile.
"What is it?"
“When the Tang Kingdom can’t hold on any longer, it can consider joining the Xia Kingdom. I have a grudge against the Chunyang Palace and the Qingyang Temple, but I am full of goodwill towards the Piaomiao Palace and the Huanhua Sword Sect.” said the Red Eyebrow True Lord.
What a coincidence,
The people who are now in charge of the Tang Kingdom are none other than those from Piaomiao Palace and Huanhua Sword Sect.
“…”
True Man Zhaoxia's expression froze for a moment, and he said awkwardly, "You are joking, True Man."
"Then treat it as a joke," Chimei Zhenjun did not mind. After a pause, he said, "My proposal will be valid until the Tang Dynasty is destroyed. You can also tell Taoist Qingping."
Master Chaoxia nodded silently.
…
Tang State, Beimang Mountain.
"How is it?" Taoist Qingping asked anxiously.
Master Chaoxia smiled bitterly and shook his head: "He didn't agree."
“Hey~~~”
Taoist Qingping sighed. Although he had expected this, he still felt bad when he was rejected.
"but……"
True Man Chaoxia was a little hesitant, not knowing whether he should make that proposal, as it would shake the morale of the army.
"But what?" Taoist Qingping raised his eyebrows, thinking that there might be some turn for the better.
"Red Eyebrow Master said..."
Zhenren Zhaoxia finally repeated the original words, just to see Taoist Qingping's attitude.
“…”
Taoist Qingping responded with silence.
"Brother, if Xia Kingdom doesn't make a statement, what about the war with Minghe Kingdom?" Zhenren Zhaoxia did not ask any further questions, but instead brought up the most pressing matter at the moment.
"What else can we do?" Taoist Qingping was at his wit's end. "Now we can only hope that Xia Kingdom can have a bigger picture and understand the principle of losing one's teeth and lips, and not add insult to injury at this time. If Tang Kingdom is gone, what good will Xia Kingdom have to gain?"
Strictly speaking,
The Tang Kingdom can actually be regarded as an outer barrier of the Xia Kingdom against the evil ways.
"Then, should we go and ask Brother Yuyang for advice?" The current situation is no longer something they can control, so they can only ask the great god Yuyang Zhenjun for help.
"Him?" Taoist Qingping raised his eyebrows. "Senior Brother Yuyang can't handle it alone. He is useless even in Tang Country. Can he do it himself?"
If True Lord Yuyang dares to take action, then Patriarch Minghai of the Minghe Sect will never tolerate it.
"Of course, we must say it." Taoist Qingping added.
True Man Zhaoxia took a deep look at Taoist Qingping and vaguely realized that Taoist Qingping might be somewhat tempted by True Man Chimei's proposal.
In the end, nothing was said.
…
Yue State, Qixia Mountain.
"Brother, looking at the situation, the three demonic kingdoms are preparing to join forces again. Should we be on guard against the Heavenly Demon Kingdom?" The one who spoke was True Man Kuishui. Although he was talking about the war, his eyes showed an eagerness to try.
"Need I say more?" Jin Guang Zhenren had seen through all this. "With the entry of Chi Mei Zhenjun into the Shen Xiao Sword Sect, the immortal way is flourishing while the demon way is declining in the Central Continent. The demon way has few opportunities left. Naturally, they must take advantage of the fact that Xia Kingdom has not yet established itself and launch a counterattack to reverse the decline."
"You mean, this fight will be a big one?" Master Kuishui became even more excited.
"Hmph," Jin Guang Zhenren's eyes were blazing, "If my guess is correct, the Styx Kingdom must be hoping to take advantage of this war to conquer the Tang Kingdom in one fell swoop."
"Tang Kingdom? Isn't it Shu Kingdom?" Master Kuishui was puzzled.
“With Yuxu Palace standing behind Shu Kingdom, it’s not that easy to deal with. Just like the previous battle of Yangzhou, when we joined forces with Tang Kingdom, didn’t we only capture the four counties of Yangzhou?” Zhenren Jin Guang saw through it very clearly.
"Then, should we help the Tang Kingdom?" Kuishui Zhenren was not stupid. If the Styx Kingdom really annexed the Tang Kingdom, the Yue Kingdom would be in trouble. Being sandwiched between the Styx Kingdom and the Demon Kingdom, it would be a matter of time before the Yue Kingdom was besieged and destroyed.
Although Tang and Yue were not allies, they were still in the same boat.
"Why should we help? Can't we just take them down directly?" There was a gleam in Jin Guang Zhenren's eyes, and he also had the idea of annexing the Tang Kingdom.
Who doesn’t have ambition?
Master Kuishui understood immediately and said hesitantly, "That Demon Country..."
"We must also be on guard against the Heavenly Demon Kingdom. The Heavenly Demon Taoist Sect will definitely think of taking the opportunity to recapture the four counties of Yangzhou, and may even think of counterattacking Xuzhou." said Zhenren Jin Guang.
"In that case, wouldn't it mean we have to fight on two fronts?"
"The Demonic Kingdom is still the highlight. As for the Tang Kingdom, we'll have to wait and see. Maybe the Tang Kingdom still has some cards up its sleeve." Master Jin Guang is ambitious, but not reckless.
“It’s going to be fun.”
Master Kuishui smiled charmingly, but became more and more excited.
…
All the calculations made in secret will eventually come to light.
On August 3, 7252 AD, the war that had been brewing for more than half a year slowly began with the confrontation between the Kingdom of Shu and the Kingdom of the Immortal, ushering in a new round of chaos in the Central Continent.
The two countries tacitly chose the border as the location for the battle so that neither side would take advantage of the other.
Qin Mo stood in the Yuxu Palace camp as "Lu Shangyu". He looked at the grand scene in front of him and took a breath of cold air.
This is the first time in my life that I have seen such a grand scene.
On the Shu Kingdom side, four True Immortals who had reached the three tribulations were sent out. In addition to True Immortal Taihao, who was the defender of Shu Kingdom, and True Immortal Taihua, who had previously guarded Hanzhong, Yuxu Palace also sent two True Immortals who had reached the three tribulations for many years to assist.
The heritage of the super sect is on full view.
According to the information Qin Mo had gathered, among the two new Three Tribulations True Immortals, one of them was a top-notch hermit in the sect, who usually did not show up. This time, he had to come out because of the serious work to be done.
In addition to the Three Tribulations True Immortals, the Yuxu Palace also sent out one hundred true disciples and one thousand inner disciples. The lowest level of their cultivation was the fifth level of Earthly Immortal, and there were more than eighty True Immortals alone.
This lineup,
It is enough to crush any family, no, it should be said that it is a first-class sect.
In addition, on both sides of the outer array of Yuxu Palace disciples, there were more than 500 cultivators densely packed together, mostly earth immortals, with a few true immortals occasionally mixed in.
Judging from the precious light alone, the appearance is not so good.
Needless to say, these were all recruited by Yuxu Palace from its subordinate sects, and it is also the duty of the subordinate sects.
More than 1,600 immortals gathered together, spreading out for tens of thousands of meters. Looking around, there was immortal air lingering everywhere and precious light overflowing, what a gorgeous sight.
The pressure created by the immortal is enough to scare mortals to death.
On the other side, the Immortal Cult's lineup was not much inferior, almost a replica of the Yuxu Palace.
It can be seen from this that in the past six months, while the two major sects were deploying their troops against each other, they also did not forget to find out each other's details. From the perspective of intelligence gathering, it can be said that they have been fighting for half a year.
perhaps,
This is also a subtle tacit understanding between super sects.
On one side there was lingering fairy air, and on the other side there was surging devilish flames, as if one black and one white had artificially divided the originally clear blue sky into two rigid halves.
The war hasn't started yet.
The sword intent and precious light rising from the two camps were already secretly clashing above the sky.
In the midst of such a great war between immortals and demons, even Qin Mo, who holds a trump card, cannot guarantee that he will be safe and sound.
Imagine this.
More than a hundred magic weapons are smashing down at the same time, you will be skinned alive even if you don't die.
Logically speaking, in this kind of large-scale group battle, it is best to team up with each other, form a large formation, and fight the enemy together, otherwise it is easy to fall.
But that is only limited to cultivators below the level of Earthly Immortals.
Those who can cultivate to become immortals are all veterans of hundreds of battles, and each has his own set of fighting methods. It is hard to say if they can force themselves together to form a team.
This isn't like being in a sect, where one can make use of the ready-made mountain protection formation.
Forcing a team would be awkward.
Therefore, generally speaking, in a major battle like this, the two sides would identify each other with equal strength, and then one group would confront the other, and then the battlefield would continue to expand.
Within a group, they look for opponents and form groups of three or five.
final,
As the fight continued, it gradually evolved into a one-on-one duel.
Everyone will tacitly find an opponent that matches them and fight each other. As a result, it is very likely that the battle is over but the two are still fighting.
The safety factor is quite high.
Look, high in the sky, the two guardians, Master Taihao and Lord Netherworld, shouted less than three sentences in the air before they lost their patience and waved their hands, giving the signal to start a war.
The two defenders started fighting each other, and after that, fish looked for fish, shrimps looked for shrimps, and turtles looked for turtles. The entire battlefield spread out like a pancake in an instant.
For a time,
The precious light flickered, the devilish flames rose, and the scene was indescribably lively.
In this bustling scene, the one who felt most at ease was naturally Qin Mo. After quietly swimming to the edge of the battlefield, he first killed a demon immortal who was fighting against him with a single sword.
Follow,
Qin Mo's figure flashed and turned into a black cloud. He summoned twelve demons and rushed all the way in from the edge of the battlefield, turning into a hell harvester.
No matter if they were from Yuxu Palace or Immortal Sect, no matter if they were earthly immortals or true immortals, Qin Mo accepted them all and dragged them all into the black cloud, followed by a dunk!
