Immortal Mansion Longevity

Chapter 389 Virtue Lives (Happy New Year!!)

"bang bang"

On the golden shield, ripples like water ripples appeared.

After all, our side has the superiority in numbers. Although Zhuo Mengzhen's side has a formation to resist, and the average cultivation base is not lower than his own side, they cannot stop all attacks after all.

More importantly, there are a few more fighters at the foundation-building level.

However, the formation in the mine is as high as the second-level middle-grade, and it is "customized" after the geographical exploration. The attributes of the formation match the environment of the mine, and the power can be increased by three levels.

It is not so easy to break through.

"It will take a long time to forcefully break through."

"But with our own strength, we can still do it after all."

"If the other party insists on going his own way, then..."

Liu Yu didn't make a move, but just stared at the situation on the field, with a stern look in his eyes.

Defeating or even killing the monks of the Hehuanmen would not bring him the benefits he wanted, and he didn't want to do that if it wasn't necessary.

If things get serious, and Hehuanmen may be watching, then it will be troublesome.

But this matter was Zhuo Mengzhen's provocation first, and he had to fight back fiercely. At most, he should be careful when he did it, so as not to take Zhuo Mengzhen's life.

It not only achieves its own purpose, but also does not attract the attention of Hehuanmen.

Without Liu Yu's order, Jiang Qiushui, Leng Yuexin and other foundation cultivators followed the previous instructions and continuously attacked the golden shield covering the mine.

"Boom"

After being bombarded by dozens of spells, the golden shield trembled slightly, and ripples appeared on it.

Among the dozens of spells, not all were first-tier spells, and several second-tier spells were flanked.

It wasn't until the end of the three rounds of attacks that the monks surrounding the mine stopped and did not continue to attack.

"Senior Sister Zhuo, the other party's attitude is unexpectedly tough, shall we still follow the original plan?"

"This Qingyang old devil doesn't look like someone who would easily compromise."

A female cultivator in a pink dress and at the early stage of foundation establishment said with a solemn expression.

Looking at the monks surrounded by the mine, she couldn't help but feel a little heavy, especially when she saw Liu Yu, she felt a chill in her heart.

Through the channel of Hehuanmen, she knew that the famous Jindan family, the Hua family, had been wiped out by Li Buyu and Liu Yu.

This man is really bold and reckless, and powerful.

If it is not necessary, she does not want to confront this kind of monk head-on.

"Now is the period when the five parties are cooperating. The other party's actions are mostly just posturing."

"However, since Qingyang has expressed his position in this way, the Liujin stone vein is probably determined to take it back."

"So, it's a little difficult to handle."

Zhuo Mengzhen, who was wearing a yellow dress, frowned and looked at the situation outside the formation, feeling very troubled.

Now is the time when Wu Zong is "running horses to enclose land" in the Yan Kingdom, the value of the Liujin stone veins is not low, if they can get it for the sect, rewards are indispensable.

She is the core disciple of Hehuan Sect, and she is willing to consider for the benefit of the sect.

It is precisely because of this that he found an excuse and brazenly took down this vein,

Originally thought that the so-called "Qingyang old devil", no matter how powerful the rumors were, was just a monk who had just been promoted to the middle stage of foundation establishment.

But I didn't expect that the opponent's wrist was even tougher than imagined.

On the contrary, Zhuo Meng really didn't dare to act rashly.

Does the other party have enough confidence in their own strength to act like this, or is there something to rely on?
In any case, it is an indisputable fact that the opposing team is stronger now.

If a full-scale conflict does break out, the situation will be extremely unfavorable to their side.

"Senior Sister Zhuo, how about sending someone to negotiate?"

After a while, the nun in the pink dress who spoke earlier asked cautiously and tentatively.

The so-called "negotiation" is nothing more than being soft and ending the incident in a peaceful way.

It also implies handing over the ryujin stone veins to avoid the outbreak of conflicts.

But Zhuo Mengzhen had a lot of prestige in the team, and the pink skirt female cultivator didn't dare to say it directly, so she could only try to be tactful, lest the other party take her anger on herself.

Hearing this, Zhuo Mengzhen turned her head and glanced at the nun in the pink skirt. This look was so sharp that the nun in the pink skirt didn't dare to say another word.

The woman frowned slightly and was silent for a while before slowly speaking:
"Send someone to negotiate."

"Ask the other party why they want to attack us, and see if we can make them retreat."

Judging that the mine formation cannot be used to hold on, even though he was unwilling to send the mine out again, Zhuo Meng could only make this helpless decision in his heart.

But even if she already had the intention to back down, it was impossible for her to hand over the mine directly.

Otherwise, not only would she not be able to accept it, but the monks in the team would also find it difficult to accept such a result, which would greatly affect her prestige in the sect and in the team.

"Yes."

The two had known each other for a long time, and they were keenly aware of Zhuo Mengzhen's intentions. The pink skirt female cultivator secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she was really afraid that the other party would not retreat.

After Liu Yu's offensive temporarily stopped, there was movement in the mine soon, and a small gap was opened in the golden shield.

A monk who has successfully refined Qi walked out of it, expressing his intention to negotiate.

"Junior Ding Haodang, I have met Senior Qingyang!"

"The Liujin Stone Mine was obtained by our side to repel the monks of Baiyun Temple. I don't know what the seniors mean by surrounding them now?"

"Is there some misunderstanding in this?"

"Why bother to use swords and guns? Both of us can sit down and talk to clear up the misunderstanding."

"It's still the period when the five sects are cooperating. They are all for the alliance to eradicate the rebellion. It would be bad if it hurts the harmony."

Ding Haodang saluted politely, and then said without humility.

Although he is a monk in the Qi refining period, he is obviously not a timid person to be sent by Zhuo Mengzhen's side as an envoy to negotiate.

"Good at turning black and white."

"My Zhao family was originally ordered to guard the Liujin stone vein. It was you Hehuanmen monks who used tricks to lure my Zhao family out of the mine and kill them, and finally forcibly occupied the mine."

"From your mouth, it becomes snatched from Baiyun Temple?"

"What a sharp-tongued junior!"

Before Liu Yu could speak, Zhao Mingcheng blushed with anger and spoke first.

For a small family like theirs, the Foundation Establishment cultivator is the existence that suppresses the family's luck, and losing one is enough to hurt the bones.

So Ding Haodang's words instantly angered Zhao Mingcheng.

The fault was that the other party was the "envoy" sent by Ding Mengzhen, and he had already beheaded him to vent his hatred.

"What the seniors said, juniors"

Before Ding Haodang finished speaking, he couldn't continue.

Because a powerful spiritual pressure suddenly descended, like a thousand-thousand-weight boulder oppressing him, causing his body to sink suddenly, and he almost knelt down.

It was extremely difficult to even stand up straight, let alone speak.

And the source of this spiritual pressure is Liu Yu. Although he has not yet broken through to the late stage of foundation establishment, the spiritual pressure is already stronger than many monks in the late stage of foundation establishment.

Liu Yu looked down on this junior named Ding Haotang.

Of course, he is not interested in wasting words with a monk in the Qi refining period, and with this person's cultivation level, he can't be the master at all.

"What is the real reason of the matter, Liu has already made a conclusion in his mind."

"Now there are only two paths before you, either hand over the Liujin stone mine, or start a full-scale war."

"You only have half an hour to choose."

"As soon as half a quarter of an hour arrives, we will use force to take back the mine."

"Alright, you can go back and report to Fellow Daoist Zhuo."

Liu Yu had no expression on his face, and his tone was unusually calm.

This is not a discussion, but an announcement, and there is no intention of breaking up with Ding Haotang at all.

Said he waved his hand as if chasing away a fly.

As soon as the words fell, Ding Haotang felt that the huge pressure covering his body suddenly disappeared, and he suddenly became relaxed.

His chest heaved and gasped for breath, but an indescribable sense of humiliation rose in his heart.

"Yes, this junior understands, so let's report to Master Zhuo."

Ding Haodang saluted respectfully, then turned and walked towards the shield.

Although humiliated, he dared not show disrespect.

Because he knew that if he was disrespectful, he might die.

After all, the other party is the murderous "Qingyang Old Demon", will Master Zhuo stand up for him, a small Qi-refinement cultivator?

Seeing that the opponent came and re-entered the shield, Liu Yu waited patiently, just waiting for Zhuo Mengzhen to make a choice.

As for the thoughts of the cultivator in the Qi refining period, he didn't take it to heart at all.

Giants, do you need to care about the feelings of ants?
As for whether there is a number of disrespect, there is no need to think about it at all. Yuanyangzong and Hehuanmen have always been hostile, and they have already torn off that layer of fig leaf.

……

On the other side, Ding Haodang did not dare to hide anything, and truthfully conveyed what Liu Yu said.

Zhuo Mengzhen's expression darkened immediately upon hearing this.

As the core disciple of the Hehuan Sect, even the "Six Sons of Hehuan" have never spoken to her in this tone.

It was the first time she was treated like this.

Either hand over the mine, or start a full-scale war, there are only two options and half a quarter of an hour to consider.

The atmosphere inside the golden shield suddenly became strange.

Although the strength of the two sides is obviously weaker, and most monks don't want to go to war, but if they take the initiative to hand over the mine, no one is willing to take the initiative to say it.

After all, after the event, it is likely to bear part of the responsibility.

In the silence, the time passed by every minute and every second, and half a quarter of an hour gradually approached.

Zhuo Mengzhen still didn't say anything, but the other Foundation Establishment cultivators couldn't sit still, and frequently signaled the pink skirt nun with their eyes.

Because this woman is now the only fellow of Zhuo Mengzhen in the team, and the two women are relatively familiar, so it is the most suitable to say this.

"It's almost a quarter of an hour, Senior Sister Zhuo, look..."

The female cultivator in the pink skirt couldn't bear the pressure in the end, and spoke cautiously.

Just about to say whether to hand over the mine, when Zhuo Mengzhen looked over, he immediately shut up.

Zhuo Mengzhen frowned and parted, suddenly smiled lightly, and walked out of the formation under the surprised eyes of the nun in the pink skirt and the others.

The golden shield opened a gap and closed again, and the nun in the pink skirt was still inside.

"Fellow Daoist Qingyang, please come forward and say something."

Zhuo Mengzhen used the sound channel spell to spread the sound throughout the mine.

Seeing that the leader of the other party came out to talk, Liu Yu was about to move forward, but Jiang Qiushui gently grabbed his sleeve.

"Senior brother, be careful, the other party has taken the initiative to come out uncharacteristically, it may be fraudulent."

"Let me wait and go together."

Facing Zhuxiu's gaze, Jiang Qiushui withdrew his hand, and a trace of worry flashed across his gaze.

Liu Yu nodded and did not speak. He gestured slightly with his hands, and the Foundation Establishment cultivators followed suit and approached the golden shield.

Except for the mine covered by the formation, the other places have been carefully scanned with spiritual consciousness, and no ambush has been found.

And with Zhuo Mengzhen's strength in the information, even if the other party suddenly attacked, he would be able to deal with it.

"It's really not easy to ask Fellow Daoist Zhuo to come out and talk about it."

"How to choose, fellow daoist, have you thought about it?"

He paused when he was ten feet away from Zhuo Mengzhen, Liu Yu said generously.

He didn't mean to be courteous at all. Given the hostile relationship between the two sects, no amount of etiquette could improve it.

That being the case, there is no need to do more.

Although Liu Yu came forward with more than twenty foundation-building monks, Zhuo Mengzhen didn't panic at all. He was still calm and calm, with the courage to be the leader of a team.

Gender differences do not directly lead to differences in strength.

Therefore, there are not a few "heroes among women" and "heroines", and female cultivators of the same realm must not be underestimated.

Zhuo Mengzhen glanced at the twenty or so Foundation Establishment cultivators who came over, and finally fixed his eyes on Liu Yu, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth:
"Mengzhen is not going to choose either of these two choices."

On the surface, the situation was calm, but facing the 24 foundation-building monks directly, she also felt great pressure in her heart, and her body secretly tensed up.

"Oh?"

"What Fellow Daoist Zhuo said is that you want to start a full-scale war and fight it out?"

Liu Yu's face turned cold, and he said solemnly.

He will not underestimate the other party just because she is a female cultivator, and he will not show mercy because of this. He is already ready to attack at any time.

"No, no, Fellow Daoist Qingyang misunderstood."

"The dream really means that besides the two options, why not find a better way?"

"A method acceptable to both parties to peacefully resolve the dispute over the Liujin stone mine."

Zhuo Mengzhen shook his head slightly, and said without showing any weakness.

Hearing this, Liu Yu's eyes instantly became deep, and the corner of his mouth curled up and said:

"What else can fellow Daoist Zhuo do to satisfy me?"

"Appreciate further details."

The previous two choices were mainly to express one's determination and force the other party to express their views.

He didn't want to see a full-scale war, and if he gave up the mine directly, the other party would probably not agree, otherwise he would have no way to explain to other monks.

Liu Yu had expected these results a long time ago, so it was not surprising.

Jiang Qiushui, Leng Yuexin and the others didn't interrupt rashly, but they pricked up their ears, wanting to know what the "method" Zhuo Mengzhen was talking about was like.

"Treasures and spirits are naturally raised, and they have been home to virtuous people since ancient times, and the resource points are the same."

"Fellow Daoist Qingyang, why don't you and I have a battle of wits to determine the ownership of the Liujin stone vein?!"

As he said that, the smile on Zhuo Mengzhen's face disappeared, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

Among them, there seemed to be a raging fighting spirit, staring at Liu Yu closely.

"No, no, no."

However, Liu Yu rejected this proposal without even thinking about it. He raised his left hand and stretched out a finger to shake it from side to side.
