The cultivation world in the central part is concentrated in the Wanling Forest.
The overlord of the Wanling Forest is the Kaiyang Shenxiao Sect.
The East China Sea is an area with complex terrain, unlike the Nanling Mountains which are all mountains and rivers.
Then the secular world is basically mixed with the world of cultivation. Nanhuangzhou is the name of the secular world. Their place is not the core area of the Nanhuang Mountains, it can only be regarded as a marginal area.
In other words, the Lingjian Sect is just a sect in a marginal area, and the location of their Xilin City is also marked on it.
"This? The area closest to the secular world in your place is so far away?" Ye Liuyun was confused after looking at the map.
"Eh? This is indeed a bit far. If you want to go to the secular world, fairy, it is best to go east and go around the seaside. This is the fastest way. If you want to fly directly from here to the nearest secular area, you will probably encounter a lot of trouble on the way." said the head of the Zhou family.
As soon as Ye Liuyun saw the regional distribution on the map, he could imagine how chaotic the Eastern Wilderness was. At least it was even more outrageous than the distribution of cultivation forces in the southern region of Nanling.
Because it is too complicated, with various major forces crisscrossing each other, if you don't take a detour from the east sea, you will have to cross the territories of many cultivation sects.
Donghuang has not formed a particularly rigorous cultivation civilization, but because of this, in the entire Tang Kingdom's cultivation world, Donghuang is the strongest in terms of the quality of cultivators. Because there are so many sects claiming to be the kings of the land, conflicts will inevitably arise frequently due to territorial issues.
Sect conflicts often occur, and disciples grow up in the midst of killing. Naturally, their combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of cultivators living in peaceful areas.
"Ah, this is a bit annoying. I didn't expect your cultivation world in the Eastern Wilderness to be so chaotic." Ye Liuyun was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"This, this can't be helped. I heard that the cultivation world in Nanling is divided into the north and south regions by Tianduanling. Tianduanling has the most abundant spiritual energy, so naturally most of the cultivation world is concentrated in the area with the most abundant spiritual energy."
“In our Eastern Wilderness, the areas with rich spiritual energy are scattered, so it is naturally difficult to completely isolate ourselves from the outside world.” Patriarch Zhou said with a wry smile.
After Ye Liuyun memorized the map, she began to think about how she would go to the secular world.
Taking a detour from the east could indeed avoid most of the troubles, but this would not be conducive to her understanding of the Eastern Wilderness, and it would also be a waste of time.
Most of the sects in the Southern Wilderness Mountains are like mountain kings and will definitely encounter a lot of trouble.
"Forget it, let's build the preliminary structural framework of the cloud first before going out. A hundred years is a long time anyway." Ye Liuyun quickly came up with a plan in his mind.
Chapter 422: Visiting the Spiritual Sword Sect (5000 words + 2500 monthly tickets plus)
A few days later, Lingjian Mountain.
Ye Liuyun has already notified Chu Menghan and others that she will come to Lingjian Mountain tomorrow to discuss matters concerning the "Cloud" organization with them.
"Master, is our Spirit Sword Sect really going to fall into the hands of this woman? How should we explain this to the other disciples of the sect, and how should we explain this to the ancestors of the Spirit Sword Sect?"
Inside the sect’s main hall, a group of senior leaders were discussing Ye Liuyun’s visit to the Lingjian Sect with Fairy Jade Sword.
When Fairy Yu Jian heard this, her face became uncertain.
"Then what are you planning to do? Are you planning to wait for the woman to come to our Lingjian Sect, and then rely on the Lingjian Sect's background to fight her again? Have you thought about what to do if you lose?" Jade Sword Fairy asked seriously.
This is a fatal problem. Yes, their Lingjian Sect once said that the Yedonghuang Sect, even if it has declined, is not comparable to ordinary small and medium-sized sects.
Their sect also has an incomplete earth-level formation that can be used once to kill a Divine Transformation cultivator.
If they could lure Ye Liuyun into the Lingjian Sect and then use the power of this formation to kill him, their troubles would naturally be resolved.
But the problem is, Fairy Jade Sword knows that Ye Liuyun has a very powerful magic weapon on him, and that magic weapon can severely injure her with one sword.
She was not sure whether the magic weapon was powerful enough to stop the killing array of their Spirit Sword Sect. If the array was stopped, what would they do afterwards? Would it anger Ye Liuyun?
It’s not that Fairy Jade Sword doesn’t want to give it a try, but she feels that she must arrange a way out and cannot gamble with the fate of the entire sect.
"Hey! Are you sure you want to give it a try? Are you willing to bear the consequences?" After a long time of hesitation, Fairy Jade Sword confirmed with Chu Menghan and others again.
Chu Menghan and the others answered one by one with firm eyes.
"Master, we cannot disgrace the Spirit Sword Sect. If you have a way, then let's take a gamble. If it fails, then we can only say that it is God's will that our Spirit Sword Sect will be doomed."
After Fairy Jade Sword was sure that Chu Menghan and the others wanted to take a gamble, she stood up.
"Well, let's make a bet. However, before we make the bet, we must leave a way out for ourselves. I have a plan, so please listen carefully." Fairy Jade Sword said seriously.
Fairy Jade Sword began to tell Chu Menghan and others about her method. What did she mean?
That is, she planned to ask for reinforcements. The ancestor of their Lingjian Sect did a favor to a powerful person who was in the mysterious realm of transformation a thousand years ago.
After growing up, this strong man wanted to repay his gratitude, but unfortunately, when he found the Lingjian Sect again, he didn't know that the Lingjian Sect had been in decline for thousands of years.
So this strong man told the descendants of Lingjian Sect that if Lingjian Sect was in trouble, they could go to Luofu Mountain to inform him, and he would definitely help Lingjian Sect overcome the difficulties.
It will take three to five days for Fairy Jade Sword to travel to Luofu Mountain, and what the Lingjian Sect has to do is to defend the sect and prevent Ye Liuyun from coming in.
So what Fairy Jade Sword meant was to activate Lingjian Mountain's protective formation. Although their protective formation was not as powerful as the killing formation, it could still withstand the full-strength attack of a cultivator in the Divine Body Realm.
If the mountain protection formation cannot withstand Ye Liuyun's attack, then they will activate their basic formation and use this earth-level formation to delay time and wait for the rescue of Jade Sword Fairy.
Why, Fairy Jade Sword, didn't plan to let Chu Menghan and the others lure Ye Liuyun into the formation and kill him? As he said before, he felt that this was not conservative. If they failed, their entire sect would surely anger Ye Liuyun.
If we just keep Ye Liuyun outside the sect, there will still be room for him to break through the formation and enter.
Jade Sword Fairy's choice is indeed the most advantageous option at the moment. If he goes to ask for reinforcements, no matter they arrive late or early, they will eventually come back.
She believed that as long as the reinforcements arrived, even if their Lingjian Sect fell in the next few days, they could still take it back.
It has to be said that he achieved two goals at once without completely breaking off relations with Ye Liuyun.
Let’s talk about Ye Liuyun. Ye Liuyun will go to Lingjian Sect tomorrow, and he will definitely bring the heads of the four major families with him. After all, they are also part of Yunduan, and they also need to participate in discussing important matters with Lingjian Sect.
"Miss, are we really going to the Spirit Sword Sect? Excuse me, you shouldn't have let them go back a few days ago. Even if you wanted to let them go, you should have kept the Jade Sword Fairy as a hostage."
"You released them all, isn't that like letting a tiger go back to the mountains? Their Lingjian Sect used to be a big sect and must have a strong foundation. If they have a backup plan, when I go to the Lingjian Sect, will I fall into their trap?" Patriarch Zhou expressed his doubts.
Ye Liuyun had thought about this. The reason why she let him go was because she could see that the people of the Lingjian Sect were different from the four major families. The four major families were too weak and needed support.
However, the Lingjian Sect has been passed down for thousands of years and has its own self-esteem, so it is impossible for them to truly submit to her. If they want such a force to submit willingly, there is only one way, and that is to destroy all their so-called dignity and confidence.
She just wanted to see if the Spirit Sword Sect had any other tricks up their sleeves. Once they used them, wouldn't they be left with nothing else to do? It would be very difficult for them to rebel again.
Don't worry, I'm here for you. I can see that they won't give up so easily.
Ye Liuyun smiled.
Seeing that Ye Liuyun was so confident, the four family masters stopped worrying about it. They felt that their master was extremely mysterious and seemed to have many hidden cards.
Anyway, the four families couldn't retreat anymore. After all, they had already attacked the Lingjian Sect and could only advance and retreat with Ye Liuyun.
Just like that, early in the morning of the next day, four cultivators in the foundation-building stage of the Zhou family were seen carrying a flying sedan, and finally, together with the four family heads, they flew towards the direction of Lingjian Mountain.
Ye Liuyun sat on the flying sedan with a comfortable look on her face. It was the first time for her to enjoy the feeling of being carried by someone and flying.
This feeling gives me the aura of a great man.
At the same time, on the way to Lingjian Mountain, there were some places below where disciples of the Lingjian Sect were hiding. They were waiting for Ye Liuyun and others. After seeing that they were about to arrive at Lingjian Mountain, they immediately passed the news back to the Lingjian Sect.
"Activate the mountain protection formation." After Chu Menghan received the news, he immediately gave the order.
At the same time, they also asked people to be ready to open their Lingjian Sect's foundation at any time, the Xuantian Jueshen Great Array (incomplete)
This Xuantian Jueshen Formation was originally a top-level Earth-grade formation, and was the sect's killing formation when the Lingjian Sect was still a large sect. After its decline, due to some reasons, part of the formation was damaged, so it can only exert the power of a mid-grade Earth-grade formation.
But even so, if he attacks the enemy, he should be able to release enough energy in one breath to kill a cultivator at the seventh level of the Yuanshen realm.
If it is used for defense, it should be enough to withstand multiple attacks from cultivators below the seventh level of the Spiritual Transformation Realm. How long it can defend depends entirely on how many spirit stones the Lingjian Sect has to activate the formation.
Chu Menghan and the others calculated that if they wanted to use this defensive formation to resist the attacks of the Divine Transformation cultivators, they would have to consume at least tens of millions of spirit stones every day. And if they didn't take the losses into account, their Lingjian Sect should be able to hold out for a week.
We will definitely be able to hold out for a week until reinforcements arrive.
Soon, Ye Liuyun and his companions arrived outside the Lingjian Sect. The Lingjian Sect was quite majestic, much more majestic than the Yunxia Sect, with a more vicissitudes of life feel. There were misty white clouds, and sword mountains everywhere that looked like divine swords.
"Haha, as expected, even the mountain protection formation has been activated. It seems that they have no intention of letting us in." Ye Liuyun said with a smile.
"Then, Miss, what should we do? Go back?" asked the head of the Zhou family.
Ye Liuyun shook his head.
"Go back? How can that be possible? We had already expected that the Lingjian Sect would continue to put up a desperate resistance. They will not surrender willingly unless we defeat them. You are lucky. You should be able to see my true strength later." Ye Liuyun laughed.
After saying this, Ye Liuyun signaled the head of Zhou family to speak.
The head of the Zhou family also stepped forward immediately.
"Master Chu, the young lady is here. Why don't you open the formation and let us in?" the head of the Zhou family shouted.
But unfortunately, no one came out to talk, and no one replied. To put it bluntly, they just wanted to keep wasting time like this.
"Hey! Let's do it. I think they want to delay time. If nothing unexpected happens, they might go to call for reinforcements. But this time, unless they bring a saint, no cultivation can stop me." Ye Liuyun sneered.
After saying this, Ye Liuyun looked at Fan Ling beside him.
"Fan Ling, use Lan Wei to break their mountain protection formation." The Lan Wei in Ye Liuyun's body flew out and landed in front of Fan Ling.
Fan Ling was excited for a moment. She hadn't fought for such a long time, and now she was suddenly asked to take the lead. She must be very excited.
"Yes? Miss." Fan Ling immediately grabbed Lan Wei, and Lan Wei's power quickly poured into Fan Ling's body. Fan Ling became Lan Wei's sword slave again.
Fan Ling in this state has a cultivation level comparable to the fifth level of the soul.
Fan Ling's spiritual energy was surging wildly. The spiritual energy between heaven and earth gathered from all directions like waves, forming a huge spiritual energy vortex above Lingjian Mountain.
This scene was very horrifying. In the end, all the spiritual energy poured into Fan Ling's body, and a huge soul image condensed behind Fan Ling. However, this soul image.
"This? What a terrifying aura. What level of cultivator is this? Is this the young lady's trump card? We Taoist monks are like the difference between gods and ants in front of this maid." Patriarch Zhou and his men were terrified.
This spiritual energy storm, like a typhoon, crushed towards the Lingjian Sect. The disciples inside, as well as Chu Menghan and others, were also stunned by the huge Yuanshen Dharma image outside.
"This is the Dharma image of the Yuanshen. It's impossible. Ye Liuyun actually has guards of this level around him? How can we fight against such a person?" Chu Menghan and the others suddenly realized that they were wrong. They still underestimated Ye Liuyun.
"Hmph! You dare to betray my young lady? I want to see if your Lingjian Sect's mountain protection formation can withstand my attack." Fan Ling suddenly became arrogant after feeling the tremendous power in her body.
She raised the Lan Wei in her hand, aimed it at the Lingjian Sect's mountain protection formation, and slashed it down with one sword. The huge Yuanshen Dharma image behind her also swung the giant sword in her hand and landed on the formation.
The Spirit Sword Sect's formation was definitely not strong enough and shattered at the slightest touch. But just when the attack was about to fall, an even more powerful formation blocked Lan Wei's attack.
Not only that, the power of this formation was obviously greater than Lan Wei's attack, and it directly bounced the soul image back. Fan Ling herself was also forced to retreat a distance.
This scene surprised Ye Liuyun a little.
"Wow? That's amazing! You really have some background. You can actually block Lan Wei's attack. This must be at least a Earth-level formation to be able to do that, right?" Ye Liuyun said in surprise.
A cultivator at the Mysterious Transformation Realm level appeared at Lingjian Mountain, and all the sects within a radius of hundreds of miles felt it.
“Such a powerful aura! Are there strong men in the God Transformation Realm fighting?” In a medium-sized sect closest to the Lingjian Sect, their sect’s God Transformation ancestor was the first to sense this aura, then left the place where he was practicing and flew towards the direction of the Lingjian Sect.
Looking at the people in the Lingjian Sect again, they all showed expressions of surprise when they saw that their foundation perfectly blocked the attack of this Divine Transformation cultivator.
However, a large amount of spirit stones were being consumed where they were controlling the formation.
The operation of the formation also requires spirit stones to maintain, and consumes more spirit stones than attacking.
"Haha, that's great. Our Lingjian Sect's powerful formation can block the opponent's attack. It looks like it won't be a problem to delay the enemy for a few days." Chu Menghan said in surprise.
However, Fan Ling's attack had no effect, so she looked at Ye Liuyun again, and Ye Liuyun nodded at her, signaling her to continue attacking. She wanted to see how many times the Lingjian Sect's strength could withstand Lan Wei's attacks.
Fan Ling attacked again and struck the formation with another sword. The Lingjian Mountain was shaking violently. It was very scary. The aftermath spread over a radius of dozens of miles. Even Xilin City could feel the terrifying power.
The interior of the Lingjian Sect was shaking constantly. There was nothing they could do. The formation might be able to block the enemy's attack, but they still had to bear the aftermath.
The disciples of Lingjian Sect were all scared to death. Not to mention anything else, just this huge Yuanshen Dharma image was something they had never seen before.
Lan Wei attacked with all her strength for about a dozen times in a row, but still couldn't break the formation.
Each of Lan Wei's attacks consumes a large amount of energy and blood, which does not mean that it can be used infinitely.
There is no other way. A magic weapon is just a magic weapon. If a magic weapon of his level is to unleash its true power, it must be activated by a cultivator who has reached the state of Divine Transformation.
Even though she is a top-grade earth-level magic weapon, with the help of the sword slave, it can only have the power of the fifth level of the Spirit Transformation Realm, no more.
“Damn it, I can’t open it, master. No, if you want to break this turtle shell, you need to have cultivation at least at the seventh level of the Spiritual Transformation Realm.” Lan Wei said as she controlled Fan Ling’s body.
After thinking for a while, Ye Liuyun asked Lan Wei and Fan Ling to come back.
Fan Ling was very angry. It was so hard to show off, but she ended up with nothing.
When she returned to Ye Liuyun, she looked frustrated.
"Don't look so depressed, this Lingjian Sect is quite interesting." Ye Liuyun said with a smile.
Since Lan Wei can't be broken, Ye Liuyun can only take out Bingpo.
"Hey! My guard, is it your turn to take action?" Ye Liuyun asked.
But Long Lingyun had no intention of helping Ye Liuyun.
"I only promised to protect your safety for three years, but I didn't say that I would help you kill the enemy. You have to find a way yourself." Long Lingyun said.
After saying that, she no longer paid attention to Ye Liuyun. After all, she was still holding her breath for a while.
