Chapter 665 Zhao Menglian's reminder, Jinyu Mountain incident (asking for monthly votes)
This time "Tuo Yun Mountain" was besieged by an army of demon beasts led by two demon kings. The Xiaoyao Sect also attached great importance to the letter asking for help sent by Lin Yutang and the others.
Bai Yuxian, who had taken over as the leader, discussed with several elders in the sect and quickly agreed to send reinforcements to rescue "Tuo Yun Mountain".
After all, the Xiaoyao Sect occupies a large share in the market of "Tuoyun Mountain", and it can get a fixed income of thousands of spirit stones from there every year, which is also an important source of income for the sect.
If Lin Yutang and the others really can't hold on and lose the "Tuo Yun Mountain" market, this will be a big loss for the sect.
Therefore, after the Xiaoyao Sect got the news this time, they immediately sent Zhao Mengli, a veteran Jindan monk at the sixth level of Jindan, to come with his people to support him.
Unexpectedly, by the time Zhao Mengli rushed to "Guiyunfang" and organized the manpower to arrive, "Tuoyunshan" had already repelled the siege of the monster army with the support of Song Qingyu.
Zhao Mengli, who had not yet figured out the situation, immediately took several foundation-building monks around him when he saw this. The army of monks left the flying boat and turned into a ray of light, arriving at the "Camel Cloud Mountain" first.
Seeing the reinforcements from Zhao Mengli and Xiaoyao Sect arriving, Lin Yutang, who had already ordered the monks to clean up the battlefield at the foot of the mountain, hurriedly explained to Zhao Mengli the arrival of Song Qingyu's reinforcements and the previous battle at the foot of the mountain.
After learning that Song Qingyu and Zhang Rong worked together to kill the "Green Crocodile Demon King", Zhao Menglian was a little surprised and immediately followed Lin Yutang to the "Golden Cloud Pavilion".
"Senior Sister Zhao, Fellow Daoist Zhao are so polite!" Song Qingyu, who was chatting with Zhang Rong, saw Zhao Mengli arriving, and the two of them quickly stood up and greeted her.
"After the sect received the news that Tuoyun Mountain was besieged by monsters, Senior Sister Bai immediately ordered me to lead people to come to support. I didn't expect that I had just arrived here and you had already repelled the siege of monsters.
I hurriedly and slowly hurried along, but I still couldn't catch up. If I had known earlier that you were so powerful, I wouldn't have come here in vain! Seeing that both Song Qingyu and Song Qingyu were there, Zhao Menglian quickly smiled and bowed his hands in return.
"Haha! Senior Sister Zhao, please don't praise me like this. Daoyou Zhang and I were also lucky. We took advantage of the monster beast's carelessness and designed to kill a leading monster king first, and then repelled the monster army. Otherwise, we would still have to fight. Wait until Senior Sister Zhao comes to rescue us."
Zhang Rong, who was on the side, heard Song Qingyu's words and nodded: "What Fellow Daoist Song said is true. This time we repelled the siege of the monster army so quickly. It was indeed a bit of a fluke that we won.
If it hadn't been for Taoist Fellow Song's extraordinary power to kill the Green Crocodile Demon King with one sword, I might not have been able to get out of trouble at this moment. Fortunately, two fellow Taoists came to our aid in time and we were able to hold on to our spiritual veins at Tuoyunshan. Zhang thanked you again on behalf of Tuoyunshan. Two people. "
"Alas! Fellow Daoist Zhang, don't be like this. Ever since your master, Patriarch Chen, occupied this place, and for hundreds of years, Tuoyunshan and your sect have always been helping each other when facing the threat of monsters from the north.
Now that you are besieged by an army of monsters, we are here to help, so there is no need to be so polite. Seeing the grateful look on Zhang Rong's face, Zhao Menglian stepped forward and sat down next to the two of them, then quickly waved to him.
After Zhang Rong asked someone to come in and give Zhao Menglian a cup of spiritual tea, he asked Zhao Menglian on the side with a worried look:
"Fellow Daoist Zhao, the monster beast turmoil in Northern Xinjiang is about to come, and the monster beasts in the Fuyun Mountains are already ready to move. I have been a little worried about this matter in my heart. I wonder what the sect's plans are for this monster beast turmoil?"
In recent years, monster beasts from the north have frequently begun to raid south, and Zhang Rong and Lin Yutang also had some premonitions that a once-in-a-century monster turmoil might be coming soon.
Although "Tuo Yun Mountain" successfully repelled the siege of the monster army with Song Qingyu's help this time, when the monster turmoil begins, the monster beasts from Fuyun Mountain will definitely attack again.
At that time, the entire northern Wei Kingdom will face a powerful threat from monsters, and the Xiaoyao Sect and the Song family themselves will also be under tremendous pressure.
For Xiaoyao Sect, the most important place must be to protect "Guiyunfang" first. The Song family also has to deal with the army of monsters heading south to "Jinshanfang" to protect their own territory.
It's hard to say whether there will be extra strength to take care of them and send people to support "Tuo Yun Mountain" at any time. Therefore, Zhang Rong wanted to ask Zhao Mengli if the Xiaoyao Sect had prepared a plan to support their side in advance.
When the Ma family rebelled in Tiexian Fort, the entire "Tuoyun Mountain" was bloodbathed by the Ma family, resulting in heavy losses to the casual cultivators on the mountain. Only two brothers, Lin Yutang and Zhang Rong, were left in Chen Jinliang's lineage.
Nowadays, although Zhang Rong, the fake elixir monk, is still on "Tuoyun Mountain", his overall strength is obviously weaker than when Fengyang De was there a hundred years ago.
The last time the monsters were in turmoil, Fengyang Deneng had been fighting with the "Yunhe Demon King" for more than half a year to protect the spiritual veins of "Tuoyunshan".
In addition to some of the information left behind by Chen Jinliang after his death, Xiaoyao Sect also sent many monks in advance to support "Tuoyun Mountain" and help Fengyang De and others guard the mountain formation.
Facing the powerful "Yunhe Demon King" who has broken through to the middle stage of the Golden Core, if there is no external aid, it will definitely be difficult for "Tuo Yunshan" to hold on to this spiritual vein for a long time with its own strength alone.
Naturally, the three golden elixir monks present here are well aware of this.
Hearing Zhang Rong ask if the Xiaoyao Sect had made any plans to support "Tuo Yun Mountain", Zhao Mengli was already prepared and hurriedly smiled and reassured the other party:
"Now the monster beasts in Northern Xinjiang have not yet begun to move south in a large scale, and there is still some time before the monster beasts are in turmoil. Fellow Daoist Zhang, don't be anxious, the sect will definitely arrange this.
I have been in seclusion for the past few years, and today I suddenly received an order from Senior Sister Bai to leave the seclusion in advance. There are indeed many things happening in the sect recently that I don’t know yet. I really can’t answer this directly to fellow Taoists.
If fellow Daoist Zhang is anxious, he might as well send a message another day and ask Senior Sister Bai directly. I think she should have an idea at this time. "
"Oh! That's not necessary. I definitely believe in Master Bai, so I just asked him casually. Please don't be offended, fellow Taoist.
Fellow Taoist Zhao has been in seclusion for so long this time, and he must be preparing for the late stage of breaking through the golden elixir. Unexpectedly, in order to support our Tuoyun Mountain, this time, fellow Taoist Zhao has also delayed his retreat and practice. I feel really ashamed. "
Seeing that Zhao Mengli was not clear about the sect's next arrangements, Zhang Rong immediately smiled and nodded, without asking any more questions, and took the initiative to change the topic in another direction.
"Haha! Fellow Daoist Zhang is joking, it's not that easy for us Jindan monks to break through the bottleneck of cultivation.
Senior Brother Li was trapped in the sixth level of the Golden Core for nearly 80 years before he was able to break through to the later stage of the Golden Core. My talent is not as good as his, and I have only just reached the peak of the sixth level of the Golden Core. I am still not close to breaking through to the late stage of the Golden Core. When will it be? "
"Senior Sister Zhao is also a spiritual root cultivator, and her talent is not much worse than that of Senior Brother Li. This statement is a bit too modest. Although it is not easy for us and other Golden Core cultivators to practice, it will naturally be a matter of course as long as the opportunity comes to break through the cultivation level."
"What Fellow Daoist Song said is..."
After the three of them chatted for a while in the "Jinyun Pavilion", Song Qingyu saw that it was already late, so he took the initiative to say goodbye to the two of them. He took Song Yuanli and Song Yuanli, who had received their respective rewards, and prepared to leave Tuoyun Mountain together.
However, she had just left "Tuo Yun Mountain" and Zhao Mengli, who had also said goodbye, suddenly caught up with her and stopped Song Qingyu.
"Junior sister Song, I forgot to ask you something just now. I wonder if it would be convenient for me to talk to you alone?"
Song Qingyu nodded slightly when he heard the words, and asked Song Yuanli and others to wait aside first, while he took the initiative to come to the flying boat at Zhao Mengli's feet.
"Sister Zhao, do you want to ask for news about Brother Seven?" As soon as he stepped onto the flying boat, Song Qingyu took the initiative to express his doubts.
Zhao Menglian was slightly startled when he heard this, then waved his hand between the two of them and released another soundproof barrier, then turned to Song Qingyu and chuckled lightly and replied:
"Junior sister Song is really a person with a clear mind and a straightforward personality. I was still thinking about how to talk to you, but I didn't expect you to say it for me yourself.
It has been twenty years since Junior Brother Song left. Calculating the time, he should be back soon. I wonder if there has been any news about him recently. "
"Since Seventh Brother went to Donghuang Kingdom, he only sent a letter back ten years ago. There has been no news since then. We only know that he is safe and sound outside by looking at the family tree from time to time." Song Qingyu answered seriously. One sentence.
After hearing Song Qingyu's answer, Zhao Menglian paused and continued to ask: "So, Junior Brother Song doesn't know when he will come back. Is there any way for you to contact him?"
"The last time Seventh Brother came back from a message, he just reported that he was safe. He didn't say where he was specifically. Moreover, it has been almost ten years since then. I'm afraid he is no longer there.
Senior Sister Zhao is anxious to find Brother Seventh, but is there something wrong? Is this what the head senior sister wants? "Song Qingyu shook his head and asked Zhao Menglian again.
Zhao Menglian nodded and said: "It was indeed Senior Sister Bai who asked me to ask. Now that the monster beasts are in turmoil, the pressure on the sect is also increasing. It would be great if Junior Brother Song could come back in time!"
"Senior Sister Zhao, the monsters from the north have been moving south frequently recently, and many strange monsters suddenly appeared in the Fuyun Mountains. Some time ago, traces of a monster king were also found near Jinshanfang.
Isn't it still some time before the monster turmoil? Why are there so many strange monster kings appearing in the border area? Is it possible that this monster turmoil will start early? Song Qingyu asked with a sincere face.
"You guessed it right. I just learned the news from Senior Sister Bai not long ago. Something happened in Jinyu Mountain in the north. Many monsters from northern Xinjiang have already poured into us in advance.
I'm afraid that this time the demonic beast turmoil is very different from the past, and it will be more violent. Now that Junior Brother Song has not returned, you should make preparations in advance to prevent the demonic beast army from going south early. "Zhao Menglian replied to Song Qingyu with a serious expression.
"It turns out that there is a problem at Jinyu Mountain. No wonder the monsters at Fuyun Mountain have been so chaotic in recent years.
Senior Sister Zhao, I wonder what happened to Jin Yu Mountain and why it was so serious that so many strange monsters suddenly broke into our area? "
The demon clan is the same as the human clan. High-level demon beasts also have their own territories. They will also fight against each other to compete for the Lingshan territory.
Golden Feather Mountain is located in the north of the Wei Kingdom. It is the spiritual mountain where the powerful Golden Feather Demon King of the Nascent Soul of the demon race is entrenched. The territory is the territory of this Nascent Soul Demon Emperor for thousands of miles, and few strange and high-level monsters dare to set foot in it at will. .
More than a thousand years ago, not long after the Golden Feather Demon Emperor from Northern Xinjiang arrived in the Fuyun Mountains, he relied on his own powerful strength to defeat a former Demon Emperor of Jin Yu Mountain and snatched this territory from him. Then this fourth-level spiritual vein was directly renamed Jinyu Mountain.
Not long after, the turmoil among the monster beasts in Northern Xinjiang began. The Golden Feather Demon Emperor, who was in great power, took advantage of the momentum of the monster beasts in Northern Xinjiang to move south, and personally led many of his monster beast armies to attack the Wei Kingdom. He wanted to take advantage of the situation. Machine to the human race to expand their territory.
The person in charge of Xiaoyao Sect at that time was the former Yuanying monk Daoxuan Zhenren. This patriarch was also a monk with extraordinary talents. At that time, his cultivation level had reached the fifth level of Yuanying, and his fighting ability was the best among the nearby Yuanying monks. It is also a relatively powerful existence.
After learning that the Golden Feather Demon King was leading the demon army to attack south, Daoxuan Zhenren immediately organized all the forces of the sect and went north to resist the attack of the demon beasts. The two sides launched a fierce battle in "Guiyunfang".
At this time, the Golden Feather Demon King's cultivation level was only at the peak of the third level of Yuanying, and had not yet broken through to the middle stage of Yuanying. Even though he relied on the assistance of many demon beasts under his command and fought several battles with Dao Xuan, he was still defeated by the enemy. .
Later, under the coercion of Master Daoxuan, the seriously injured Golden Feather Demon Emperor had to agree and signed a city alliance with the Xiaoyao Sect. It was agreed that the Nascent Soul monks from both sides would not intervene in the turmoil of demon beasts and attack the other's territory for a thousand years. .
In the past more than a thousand years, every time the monster beasts in Northern Xinjiang were in turmoil, the main force of monster beasts attacking the Weiguo territory was basically the army of monster beasts under the command of the Golden Feather Demon Emperor.
However, after the Golden Feather Demon King returned to the north, he had indeed kept his agreement and never appeared in person to attack Xiaoyao Sect territory. Therefore, both parties also controlled the impact of the demonic beast's unrest to below the Golden Core stage.
In the Fuyun Mountains to the north of Weiguo, there are more than twenty demon kings at the Golden Core stage or above, and most of them are subordinate to the Golden Feather Demon Emperor. These demon kings rarely do anything except when the demon beasts are in turmoil. Go south and cross the border to attack human territory.
A few demon kings with no background like "Yunhe Demon King", even if they like to go south to harass, they will not pose much threat to the human monks.
Now that there is a problem in Jinyu Mountain, the monsters in the north of the Wei Kingdom are out of control, and many strange monster kings suddenly appear. If this development continues, the pressure on the Xiaoyao Sect will inevitably increase.
After hearing about the incident at Jin Yushan from Zhao Mengli, Song Qingyu immediately had some bad premonitions and quickly asked.
Zhao Menglian shook his head and said: "The sect has not fully understood this matter yet, and I don't know the specific situation. Master Li and Senior Sister Bai are working hard to investigate and deal with this matter. They will definitely report the results as soon as possible. Informed you.
Junior Sister Song, the reason why I didn't say it out loud just now and wanted to talk to you alone is because this matter is of great importance. If you are not careful, it may affect the future fate of our Xiaoyao Sect and so many monks in Weiguo.
You must be careful not to spread the news to the outside world in advance, otherwise the chaos of monsters has not yet arrived, and chaos will break out on our own side first, which will probably cause a lot of trouble. "
Hearing Zhao Mengli's kind words, Song Qingyu hurriedly nodded and replied: "Senior Sister Zhao, don't worry, I know the seriousness of the matter. Thank you very much, Senior Sister, for informing the matter in advance. If Brother Seven comes back, I will inform the sect as soon as possible." of."
Seeing this, Zhao Menglian smiled and nodded and said: "Yes! It's good that you understand. Now that Junior Brother Song has not come back, Qingyu, you should be more careful in your actions here.
If Tuo Yunshan is besieged by monsters again next time, it is better to wait for the people from the sect to arrive before we act together, so that you will not have to come to the rescue alone. If the monsters plot against you, the gains will outweigh the losses.
Also, due to the unstable situation in the north recently, the sect has focused all its attention on the Fuyun Mountains, and many demon cubs have been found sneaking into the territory.
Some time ago, in Donglin County in the south, several immortal-cultivating families were exterminated by demonic cultivators one after another. Among them, a powerful foundation-building family was also murdered. After Senior Brother Li went to investigate, he suspected that there was a golden elixir demon. Xiu sneaked into our Weiguo.
After you go back, you should also pay attention to this matter. Once you discover any abnormal situation related to the magic cultivator, remember to send a letter to the sect's law enforcement hall immediately. Do not act rashly to avoid hidden losses.
Junior Sister Song, what I mentioned to you was actually explained by Senior Sister Bai. Now that the monster turmoil is imminent, the sect is also feeling even more pressure. We Golden Core cultivators must also pay attention to our own safety so that we can serve the sect in the future. yes.
There's only so much I should remind you of. Junior Sister Huang, I would like you to tell me this, so I won't make the extra trip. "After Zhao Menglian finished speaking, he waved his hand to remove the soundproof barrier around the two of them.
"Qingyu understands. I hope Senior Sister Zhao and Senior Sister Head can rest assured that I will pay attention to these things."
After Song Qingyu nodded in response, he slightly arched his hand to Zhao Menglian, then took out the flying sword and turned it into a ray of light and left the place.
The Fuyun Mountains in the north have not been peaceful these years, and Song Qingyu had already had a premonition that the situation seemed a little abnormal. After learning about the incident at Jin Yu Mountain from Zhao Mengli, the pressure on Song Qingyu's shoulders increased instantly.
After receiving Song Yuanli and the others not far ahead, Song Qingyu returned to Funiu Mountain without further delay and began to convene many monks in the family for discussion, preparing to deal with the unrest of monsters that might arrive early.
Over the years, the Song family has developed smoothly and its strength has increased a lot. In the twenty years since Song Qingming was absent, the Song family has added two more foundation builders and dozens of Qi refining stage monks.
Song Yuanli and others who had already established their foundation have made some progress in their cultivation in the past twenty years. The overall strength of the family has at least doubled compared to when Song Qingming just formed his elixir a hundred years ago.
In recent years, under the full development of the Song family, Qinghe County has expanded a lot of territory from Yunwu Mountain to the east around the "Chiyan Mountain" market, attracting many foreign casual cultivators to settle down in Qinghe County, and even some casual cultivators who have established their foundation have brought their families to establish a cultivation family.
In addition, with the support of the Song family in recent years, the old-fashioned cultivation families in Qinghe County, such as the Huang family and the Gao family, have also developed very smoothly. The total number of cultivators in Qinghe County has now exceeded more than 3,000, which is nearly double that of a hundred years ago.
If the "Jinshanfang" side would deal with the monster turmoil under normal circumstances in previous years, at most one or two monster kings and two or three thousand low-level monsters would come, which would not pose such a big threat to the current Song family.
Even if Song Qingming, the clan leader, is not here, with Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan, two Jindan cultivators, guarding the "Jinshanfang" line with the help of the Fangshi Mountain Protection Formation, it will definitely not be a problem.
But now, according to what Zhao Menglian said, something happened in Jinyu Mountain, and many strange monster kings suddenly appeared in the north of Weiguo. It is difficult to predict what the next monster riot will be like.
The reason why Bai Yuxian asked Zhao Menglian to remind Song Qingyu specifically was that he was afraid that the Song family would underestimate the enemy without understanding the situation, and might suffer losses at that time.
After all, the Song family also needs to protect the territory of Xiaoyao Sect. Once Song Qingyu and his men fail to defend the "Jinshanfang" line of defense, and let the monster army march straight into Jiangling County, it will also cause the sect to suffer huge losses.
In order not to leak too much information and affect the morale of the troops below, Song Qingyu did not tell too many people about this matter. He only explained the crisis situation in the north to several core elders such as Song Yuanfang, who was in charge of the family.
After receiving instructions from the family ancestor Song Qingyu, Song Yuanli and Song Xuanting immediately recruited dozens of family cultivators to live in the "Jinshanfang" and asked them to take turns to go to the front line of the market to investigate the movements of the monsters and be ready to respond at any time.
Then Song Qingze also began to recruit and train reliable casual cultivators in the "Chiyanfang" and collect a large number of important strategic materials such as magic tools and talismans needed to deal with the next battle with monsters.
Song Yuanfang contacted many immortal cultivation families under the Song family and asked them to secretly transport some of the spiritual rice and other materials needed for the war to the "Jinshanfang" in advance, so as to be prepared to deal with the monsters and turmoil at any time.
Just as the Song family was busy preparing to deal with the next monster riot, a man in white with a strange appearance, thousands of miles away in Jinyu Mountain, looked at the many monster kings kneeling at his feet not far away and smiled with satisfaction.
"Haha! Congratulations to Brother Molong for successfully taking over Jinyu Mountain. I hope you can take care of me in the future!"
Just as the man in white was thinking, a man in black with red eyes came in and congratulated him with a smile. (End of this chapter)
