Qinghe Immortal Clan
#907 - War breaks out again, sudden change in the north
Northeast of Wei State, in the "White Lion Square".
As the largest market town in the northeast of Wei State, "White Lion Market" has been vigorously managed by the Song family for decades. There are now thousands of permanent and independent cultivators in the market town.
Its prosperity and bustle has gradually surpassed the "Tuoyun Mountain" and "Tiexian Valley" in the west of Wei State, and is now regarded as the leading large-scale market in Wei State.
However, today the streets of "White Lion Square" are unusually sparsely populated. Most of the shops in the market have closed their doors, and many monks in the city have flocked to the city gates on all sides.
Song Yuanxue and many foundation-building monks who were guarding the city, standing on the city wall, looked at the hundreds of monsters swarming down below, and frowned slightly on their faces.
Although the beast tide from the northern border has been moving south for half a year, the north of Wei State has been very peaceful, and only occasionally encounters attacks from a small number of low-level monsters moving south.
This was the first time that Song Yuanxue and the others had encountered such a big commotion as today's, and they couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Before, everyone knew that the sect had defeated the army of monsters in the "White Dragon Valley", and they thought that the monsters of the "Golden Feather Mountain" might not dare to move south easily this time.
Unexpectedly, even after more than half a year, the demon army still marched south and failed to prevent them from avoiding the disaster.
As a founding elder of the family, Song Yuanxue had also experienced the last "Monster Rebellion" and naturally knew the cruel fate that the cultivators in the city would face next.
But now at this moment, facing the numerous monster armies outside the city, Song Yuanxue's eyes gradually calmed down, turned around and said seriously:
“There are so many monsters coming this time, I’m afraid there may be a monster king among them, so everyone should be smart when you go out to fight the enemy later.
Once the demon king appears, quickly retreat to the mountain protection formation!"
"Don't worry, grandma. We know what's going on!"
Hearing Song Yuanxue's instructions, Song Linrui and others on the side immediately bowed in response.
Seeing that the army of monsters below had already reached the city, Song Yuanxue immediately waved his hand, and the many high-level magical weapons placed on the wall of "White Lion Square" immediately emitted rays of light.
These spiritual lights turned into sharp arrows in mid-air and flew straight to the bottom of the city wall. Soon, the many monsters running in the front let out screams.
The Song family has been running the "White Lion Square" for many years and has already built this family's northern defense line into a very solid one.
In the "White Lion Square", not only is there a third-level medium-grade "Mountain Protection Array" arranged, but there are also several third-level "Flying Cloud Crossbows" on the city wall.
These high-level magical weapons used to defend the city are extremely powerful. If used properly, they can even threaten the Jindan Demon King.
The only drawback is that these high-level magical weapons are too bulky, cannot be moved at will, and have a limited attack range.
Moreover, a large amount of spirit stones need to be continuously replenished when using it, and the consumption of spirit stones for the defenders is also very huge, so it is difficult to use it continuously in battle.
After several third-level "Feiyun Crossbows" and other low-level city-defending magic weapons were launched, many low-level monsters below were shocked by their power and immediately stopped and dared not move forward.
At this moment, more than a dozen second-level monsters in the monster group immediately rushed out, and kept driving their lower-level monsters forward to attack the "Mountain Protection Formation" of the market town.
As the army of monsters continued to approach, even though the numerous magical weapons on the city walls continued to attack, they were still unable to stop their edge, and soon the entire "White Lion Square" mountain protection formation felt a pressure.
Upon seeing this, Song Yuanxue immediately commanded the monks guarding the city to break out of the "Mountain Protection Formation" and engage in a fierce battle with the army of monsters.
After the two sides fought, the sounds of shouting and killing were endless, and the entire battlefield was filled with a bloody smell, which made the young monk standing behind the "Mountain Protection Formation" feel uncomfortable.
However, those who came to the front battlefield were basically elite monks specially selected by the Song family.
Faced with the tragic scene on the battlefield ahead, although their faces looked a little ugly, their eyes did not reveal much fear.
Hearing the order from the foundation-building cultivator in the rear, he shouted and jumped directly out of the "Mountain Protection Formation" and charged into the battlefield.
This time, the army of monsters that came to attack the "White Lion Square" numbered thousands, and their number was no less than that of the monks guarding the city on Song Yuanxue's side.
The two sides were almost evenly matched and the fight was extremely brutal.
Fortunately, with the help of cultivators to share the pressure, the pressure on the "Mountain Protection Array" in the market town was instantly reduced a lot, and there was no crisis for the time being.
But just as the two sides were fighting fiercely, a roar suddenly came from the distance among the group of monsters in the back.
Immediately afterwards, a tall figure flew up from behind the army of monsters, stepped forward and spit out a ray of spiritual light that slammed onto the "White Lion Square" mountain protection formation, causing the "mountain protection formation" to shake violently.
"Giant Elephant Demon King!"
Seeing the tall figure suddenly appearing in front of him, Song Yuanxue couldn't help but show surprise on his face, and quickly cast a spell to release a sound transmission note that he had already prepared in his hand.
"The demon king is coming, everyone retreat quickly!"
Although there are many cultivators on the human side, if they want to stop a powerful Jindan Demon King, their strength is definitely not enough. Staying on the battlefield will only cause casualties.
Song Yuanxue had just released the sound transmission talisman, and many human cultivators on the battlefield had also seen the tall figure of the "Giant Elephant Demon King" and began to retreat to the "mountain protection formation" behind them.
Seeing this, the "Giant Elephant Demon King" was not polite at all. He didn't care about the demon army fighting with the human race below, and directly cast a spell and spit out several rays of spiritual light.
In just a moment, dozens of cultivators from the human race fell under the attack of the demon king, which shocked Song Yuanxue and others on the city wall.
Just when the "Giant Elephant Demon King" wanted to wreak havoc on the battlefield, a green sword light suddenly and quickly attacked from the "Mountain Protection Formation".
The momentum of this sword light was so astonishing that even though it was hundreds of feet away, the "Giant Elephant Demon King" instantly felt the danger and had to stop casting the spell and instead spit out a magic shield to block himself.
"Bang!"
The sword light flew over, and there was a loud bang. The "Giant Elephant Demon King" was forced back more than ten feet by the sword light before he stopped and steady his body.
The next moment, as the green light fell, a heroic-looking woman in green flashed over the battlefield, staring coldly at the "Giant Elephant Demon King" not far away.
"Song Qingyu! It's you."
Seeing Song Qingyu suddenly appear in front of him, a solemn look suddenly appeared on the face of the "Giant Elephant Demon King".
During the "White Lion Ridge" battle decades ago, Song Qingyu's cultivation was only at the fifth level of the Golden Core realm, and he was far from being a match for the "Giant Elephant Demon King", a great demon king in the late Golden Core realm.
Unexpectedly, after only a few decades, Song Qingyu's cultivation had already broken through to the eighth level of the Golden Core, and his cultivation had caught up with the "Giant Elephant Demon King" who advanced to the Golden Core level hundreds of years earlier than him.
Seeing Song Qingyu suddenly appear, everyone's faces suddenly changed from danger to joy, showing a burst of excitement, and shouted loudly to the many monks who were still retreating under the city wall:
"The ancestor has arrived. Don't be afraid, everyone. Quickly stop the monsters outside the city!"
Above the sky, seeing that the "Giant Elephant Demon King" recognized him at a glance, Song Qingyu's face did not show the slightest surprise, and he looked at the other party calmly.
“You have been enlightened for so many years, yet you still bully the younger generation at every turn. It is really embarrassing.
Since you want to fight, let me meet you!"
"Humph! I'd be happy to fight you if I wanted to. I'm just afraid you don't dare to come over."
Facing Song Qingyu's verbal provocation, the "Giant Elephant Demon King" showed no fear and took the initiative to fly to an uninhabited area on the side of the battlefield.
When Song Qingyu saw that the other party took the initiative to move away from the battlefield, he followed him without any hesitation. The two of them soon arrived over an open space.
The reason why they needed to change location was because both of them were late Jindan cultivators, and the power of the aftermath of the fight alone was astonishing.
If they fought on the original spot, they might accidentally injure the low-level cultivators and monsters nearby, so they tacitly moved to a more remote battlefield.
When fighting for the spiritual vein of "White Lion Square" back then, the one who fought against the "Giant Elephant Demon King" was Song Qingming, who had not yet formed a baby.
At that time, Song Qingyu's cultivation had just broken through to the middle stage of the Golden Core, and he had never had a head-on battle with the "Giant Elephant Demon King" on the battlefield.
When they met again this time, Song Qingyu's cultivation had caught up with the other party. In addition to his own practice of sword cultivation, his fighting strength even exceeded that of ordinary cultivators of the same level.
At this moment, Song Qingyu, who was facing the "Giant Elephant Demon King", not only did not have the slightest fear in his heart, but was secretly looking forward to this battle.
"Sword shadow splits light!"
As soon as the two of them stood still, Song Qingyu moved the magic power in his hand and split his natal flying sword "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" into seven parts, turning it into dozens of sword shadows and rushing straight towards the "Giant Elephant Demon King" in the distance.
On the other hand, the "Giant Elephant King" drove his trunk to extend more than ten times, wrapping around himself like a long snake, forming an impenetrable defensive wall.
Soon as the sword light came, a burst of white light immediately rose beside the "Giant Elephant Demon King".
The next moment, a "boom" sound resounded throughout the battlefield.
Both of them are late Jindan cultivators, and the difference in their cultivation is not that big.
Although Song Qingyu practiced the way of sword cultivation and had very strong fighting ability, the "Giant Elephant Demon King" was also one of the few demon kings with a strong physical body among the demon clan.
Even though he was suppressed head-on by the sword light controlled by Song Qingyu, he did not show any signs of defeat for a while.
Just as Song Qingyu was fighting the "Giant Elephant Demon King", three beams of light flew again from the distant sky and headed straight for the battlefield. Not far behind the beams of light, there was smoke and dust, and it seemed that there were many low-level monsters following them.
These three beams of light were escaping at an incredibly fast speed, and it was obvious that they were from cultivators above the Golden Core stage.
When the three beams of light approached the battlefield, Song Qingyu, who was fighting with the "Giant Elephant Demon King", also discovered the opponent in advance.
Seeing several beams of light coming towards him not far away, Song Qingyu hurriedly stopped attacking and dodged to avoid the opponent's siege.
But before Song Qingyu could leave the battlefield, the front of the "Giant Elephant Demon King"'s long nose suddenly became several times larger, and then a huge suction force came towards Song Qingyu.
The long trunk of the "Giant Elephant Demon King" can not only stretch and retract freely, but also swallow wind and spit out water. It is considered to be his innate magical power that is no less powerful than magic weapons.
Relying on the huge suction force emitted by its long trunk, the "Giant Elephant Demon King" instantly fixed Song Qingyu, who was eager to escape, firmly in mid-air, making it difficult for him to leave the battlefield.
The magical power of the "Giant Elephant Demon King" is rarely used in front of others.
Even Song Qingming, who had fought with him several times in the past, had never seen this, so Song Qingyu naturally didn't know it either. That's why he was caught off guard and entangled by the magical power of the "Giant Elephant Demon King".
"Sword shadow turns into spirit!"
Suddenly trapped at this moment, Song Qingyu could hardly move for a moment. He could only use both hands to quickly cast a spell, controlling the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" not far away to transform into several sword shadow clones, which stepped forward to block the several rays of light flying from the front.
After breaking through the late Jindan stage, Song Qingyu can now split into three sword shadow clones. Within a short period of time, each clone can possess 30% of his own strength, barely reaching the fourth level of Jindan.
Among the three demon kings who came over not far away, there was no powerful late Jindan demon king.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
After several demon kings were stopped by Song Qingyu's sword shadow clone, although they quickly gained the upper hand in the fight, they were unable to get close to the battlefield for a while.
After temporarily blocking several demon kings in the distance, Song Qingyu hurriedly cast a spell and took out the magic weapon "White Dragon Ruler", releasing a light shield to block the huge suction force in front of him.
Then Song Qingyu threw out another talisman and stuck it under his feet. With a flash of light, he forcibly left the place and escaped backwards.
After using several important magic weapons in succession, Song Qingyu finally escaped from the entanglement of the "Giant Elephant Demon King" as he wished and turned around to escape into the distance.
“Where are you going!”
Seeing Song Qingyu escaping, the "Giant Elephant Demon King" quickly rolled its trunk forward and instantly came in front of Song Qingyu and tried to stop him.
But Song Qingyu obviously didn't want to get entangled with it, so he dodged it and changed direction to fly towards the battlefield not far below.
At the same time, the demon kings who were blocked by Song Qingyu's sword shadow clone had also broken away from their opponents and chased up to block the front, trying to stop the fleeing Song Qingyu together with the "Giant Elephant Demon King".
Although his way was blocked by the three demon kings in front of him, Song Qingyu did not show too much panic on his face. He once again called back the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" and transformed it into a sword shadow clone to block in front of himself to deal with the two demon kings.
She raised her hand and a sword light appeared, slashing directly at the "Red Python Demon King", the weakest of the three demon kings.
The "Red Python Demon King" had only the second level of Golden Core cultivation. Facing Song Qingyu, who was at the eighth level of Golden Core, although he tried his best to resist, he was still repelled by one sword.
Fortunately, the momentary obstruction bought the "Giant Elephant Demon King" a little time. The long nose blocked Song Qingyu again, leaving her no chance to escape.
Looking at Song Qingyu, whose retreat was blocked by himself and the "Red Python Demon King", the "Giant Elephant Demon King" finally showed a bit of pride on his face, and said excitedly:
"Song Qingyu!
Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan are not here today, I am afraid no one in the Song family can come to save you."
"Oh! Daoist friend is so confident, I guess it will be difficult for me to leave here today!"
"Not just you. Today I will avenge fellow Daoist Bai Shi. All the human cultivators here, don't even think about escaping."
Seeing the excitement on the face of the "Giant Elephant Demon King" not far away, Song Qingyu looked at him calmly, still without the slightest fear.
"Since you can't leave, I'll fight you guys to your heart's content."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold light flashed in Song Qingyu's eyes, and with a single move of his hand, he recalled the sword shadow clone beside him and transformed it into the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" again.
Just when Song Qingyu was about to continue fighting with the opponent, a number of human cultivators suddenly rushed out from the "White Lion Square" mountain protection formation not far away.
One of them stepped on the wind and turned into a golden light, and quickly came to Song Qingyu's side.
Although the man had silver hair and looked old, his face was very rosy and his aura had reached the Golden Elixir level. He was none other than Huang Mengde, the head of the Huang family of "Taiyuan Mountain".
After exchanging a demon pill from Huang Siyuan that year, Huang Mengde was really lucky. After several years of hard work and seclusion, he finally succeeded in forming a pill with the help of an external pill and broke through to the golden pill realm.
Because he was under the command of the Song family, upon hearing that the "White Lion Square" was under siege by monsters, Huang Mengde immediately rushed for the Huang family monks to come and help.
Fortunately, there is a teleportation array in "Chiyanfang" connecting to "Baishifang", and Huang Mengde and others arrived in time and arrived at the battlefield at this moment.
Seeing Huang Mengde suddenly appear, Song Qingyu, who had just been besieged by many demon kings, suddenly felt relieved.
On the other hand, the "Giant Elephant Demon King" was a little surprised at first when he saw Huang Mengde bringing people to help, but he quickly calmed down and brought several demon kings to kill Song Qingyu again.
"Friend Huang, please help me contain the red python. I will take care of the other demon kings!"
After a brief communication with Huang Mengde, the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword" in Song Qingyu's hand split into seven parts, and he took the initiative to step forward to stop the three demon kings including the "Giant Elephant Demon King".
Huang Mengde, holding a flying sword, faced the weakest "Red Python Demon King" left on the field, and the two sides fought again.
Although Huang Mengde helped to entangle the "Red Python Demon King", the "Giant Elephant Demon King" was outnumbered three to one. He thought he had the advantage and would be able to defeat his opponent quickly.
But what the "Giant Elephant Demon King" did not expect was that Song Qingyu, holding the "Xuanming Golden Light Sword", performed very fiercely when facing the siege of three demon kings.
Not only did he not allow the "Giant Elephant Demon King" to gain the advantage, but he was able to occasionally spare some energy to help Huang Mengde deal with the "Red Python Demon King".
The battle lasted from the afternoon until dusk, but no one was victorious. As night fell, both sides had to withdraw their troops and leave.
After the war, Song Qingyu and his companions returned to the "White Lion Square" and immediately summoned all the cultivators above the foundation building stage in the market to discuss matters and strengthen the repair of the "mountain protection formation" in the market.
At the same time, Song Qingyu immediately sent a message to inform "Guyang Mountain" of the news that the monsters from the northern border were moving south, and requested the sect to send troops to help.
In the battle during the day, Song Qingyu and others managed to defend the "White Lion Square".
However, faced with the "Giant Elephant Demon King" leading a huge army of monsters from the north heading south, the "White Lion Square" was obviously caught off guard and suffered heavy casualties among the monks.
In just the first battle, nearly two hundred low-level monks of the "White Lion Square" perished, and hundreds more were injured in the battle, making it temporarily difficult for them to resume the battle.
As for the demon clan, not only did they have four demon kings, including the "Giant Elephant Demon King", but they also had an army of thousands of demon beasts that was more than twice as strong as the human cultivators.
If it weren’t for Song Qingyu’s strong performance on the battlefield, he would have been able to block the three Jindan Demon Kings on the opposite side alone.
In the daytime battle, the human cultivators would probably suffer even greater losses, and might even lose the "White Lion Square", the most important line of defense on the front line.
Although they temporarily repelled the demon tribe, Song Qingyu and the others knew that it would be difficult to stop such a large demon army with the current strength of the "White Lion Square".
But what Song Qingyu didn't know was that at the time she sent a message for help, many places in the northern part of Wei State had already been attacked by the demon tribe moving south.
The next day, Song Qingyu did not receive a letter from the sect sending reinforcements, but instead received a piece of news that shocked her greatly.
Just as the demon tribe went south to attack the "White Lion Square" yesterday, the "White Dragon Valley" located in the north of the sect was also attacked by a large number of demon beasts.
Just when the monks of "White Dragon Valley" rose up to resist, they did not expect that several foundation-building disciples of "Xiaoyao Sect" were suddenly bewitched by the magic and took action to destroy the "mountain protection formation" in the city.
Just like that, before the monks of "White Dragon Valley" could wait for support from the sect, the demon army broke through the "White Dragon Valley" mountain protection formation.
Except for a small number of "Xiaoyao Sect" disciples such as Chu Fengping who escaped through the teleportation array in the city, the nearly 3,000 monks defending the city in the entire "White Dragon Valley" were almost wiped out and killed by the demon army.
The demon army also took advantage of the situation to break through the many sacred mountain markets near the "White Dragon Valley" and marched straight to the "Guiyunfang" in the south.
After learning about the incident in "White Dragon Valley", the "Xiaoyao Sect" had no time to take care of other things and could only concentrate all the sect's strength on "Guiyunfang".
Even the sect's supreme elders, Li Mufeng and Bai Yuxian, have personally rushed to "Guiyunfang" to prepare to fight against the demon army heading south.
Upon hearing this shocking news, Song Qingyu and others showed surprise on their faces.
I thought that the reason why "White Lion Square" was suddenly besieged by so many monsters was that the monsters wanted to concentrate their strength to defeat us first.
I didn’t expect that the situation faced by other places is even more serious than theirs.
At this point, it would be hard for the "White Lion House" to count on the sect to send troops to help in the short term.
——
Zheng State, "Tianxing Valley".
Inside the main hall of "Tianxingmen", many Jindan monks were sitting together discussing the battle situation.
In the hall, in addition to Huang Siyuan and the other four people and three Tianxingmen Jindan elders, there were another six Jindan cultivators who came from the surrounding areas to provide support.
While everyone was discussing this, Tianxing Sect's Grand Elder Hu Xuanjing glanced at the empty seat at the top, then turned to Huang Siyuan who was not far away and asked:
"Fellow Daoist Huang, now that Fellow Daoist Zhu and others have come to help, the strength in our valley is no weaker than that of the demon tribe. We should be able to try to counterattack the demon tribe's army.
I just don't know what Senior Song thinks about this matter, could you please help me ask?"
Hearing Hu Xuanjing's question, Huang Siyuan smiled slightly, but shook her head gently at everyone in the hall.
"My fellow Taoists, my husband is in retreat recently and it is inconvenient to disturb him. Let's put this matter on hold for now."
