Chapter 226 The conflict is getting worse
Ye Yunqi doesn’t know many people, and the only one who agrees to this condition and is trustworthy is probably Duanmu Ya.
As for whether such a skill will attract the covetousness of others?
Ye Yunqi had to admit that the Ye family blood thunder technique he created only had the advantage of a low threshold.
To be honest, it is not that powerful. When it is practiced to a high level, its power is only at the level of blood thunder technique.
Even the Sanqing Sect did not covet the third-grade martial arts technique that he practiced, let alone a low-level combat technique?
With this thought in mind, Ye Yunqi took out the jade pendant that Duanmu Ya had given him and prepared to contact Duanmu Ya.
But then he thought, Duanmu Ya is in seclusion now, and it is probably the most critical time. He was just asking about the depth of the technique, and it was a small matter. If he rashly disturbed others with the jade pendant, wouldn't it be bad if it delayed her practice?
So Ye Yunqi put away the jade pendant and just used the communication talisman to send the message.
After delivering the message, Ye Yunqi said to Jiang Qingzi and Jiang Zhiyun: "Qingzi, Zhiyun, I have another set of combat skills. They are extremely valuable. You need to learn them well."
What he was talking about was the "Thunder Sword Technique" that he had just drawn.
"The Thunder Sword Technique" focuses on attacking and killing, and requires the prior training of thunder magic before it can be used, but its advantage lies in its ultimate attacking and killing capabilities.
When the two heard it for the first time, they felt that it was extremely mysterious. They could only memorize it hastily. It would take them an unknown amount of time to learn it.
"The Thunder Sword Technique consists of three moves: Thunder Movement, Thunder Roar, and Thunder Break."
"Move with swiftness, attack in groups, and destroy with a decisive blow."
"Qingzi can try to practice now. Zhiyun, you should practice Blood Thunder Art and Flying Thunder Art first. When you have mastered the thunder technique, you can practice Thunder Sword Art."
The two of them nodded in agreement and returned to their quiet rooms to practice.
The quiet room is for hard practice, and the courtyard is peaceful and tranquil.
However, outside, the atmosphere became increasingly solemn.
Sanqing Sect, Huaqing Peak.
In the hall, three ancestors occupied high positions.
The Jindan elders were seated on both sides.
An elder said slowly: "We have seen demon cultivators many times within the middle line of Jingshan. How should we deal with it? Please give us your advice, Sect Master."
Before the three ancestors Wen Tingyu, Duanmu Qingyuan and Xu Donghua could speak, they saw Elder Chen Yao stand up, raised his head and said: "The demon cultivators are rampant, Chen Yao invites you to fight!"
"Elder Chen, the demon cultivators are treacherous and there may be something unusual going on." Someone advised.
Chen Yao laughed: "What you said is not without reason, but it only boosts others' morale and destroys our own prestige. No matter what tricks the demon cultivators have, we must take the initiative to fight and drive them back. Otherwise, how will the righteous people view us? Are we weak and can be bullied?"
"..." The man snorted and said no more.
Wen Tingyu said, "What you two said makes sense. In this case, let Chen Yao handle this matter. You have been guarding Jingshan for a long time before, so you are familiar with everything. But you are straightforward, so don't let the demon cultivator lead you. At worst, you can lead the team across the center line!"
"Chen Yao, I accept your order!" Chen Yao's face lit up and he quickly bowed. The matter was settled, and he didn't even bother to bargain.
Duanmu Qingyuan said: "There are many things going on in Jingshan, so let's double the number of Dao Army vacancies."
Although some people looked hesitant, in the end no one stood up to raise any objections.
Once this is said, it will not only affect the Sanqing Sect, but the number of people required to contribute to the work of all the family sects in the entire Sanqing Sect will double.
Xu Donghua sighed: "Wanxiang Sect has been inviting us to fight for a long time. Meizhuang has also sent news that they are willing to provide help, but other places are not interested."
"It's within our expectations." Wen Tingyu said calmly, "It's called a war between good and evil, but strictly speaking, it's just a matter for us on the border. The rest of us have lived in the hinterland for a long time, so they are always less aggressive than us."
"It's all gone."
"Yes." Everyone stood up and dispersed.
Chen Yao held his head high and chest puffed out, striding towards Jingshan.
"Elder Chen, wait a moment, wait a moment!" An old voice suddenly came from behind, and Xu Donghua's figure appeared behind Chen Yao.
Chen Yao quickly stopped in mid-air.
"Master Xu Feng? What's the matter?"
Xu Donghua took out a jade slip and handed it to Chen Yao: "I have been pondering the art of blood thunder for a long time, and now I have made some progress, all of which are included in it. You can take it and preach it among the Taoist army. If you can cultivate a few thunder techniques, it will be beneficial to the next war."
Chen Yao took the jade slip and scanned it with his mind. It contained all the insights and comments on the Blood Thunder Art, in great detail. With this jade slip, it would be easier for people to practice the Blood Thunder Art.
Chen Yao bowed and said, "Thank you, Master Xu Feng."
"It's just a small matter." Xu Donghua sighed softly, "Thunder magic is difficult to practice, I can only do my best."
"With Master Xu Feng's comments, I think it won't be that difficult to practice thunder magic." Chen Yao complimented him lightly, "Who knows, maybe I will have a chance to practice thunder magic!"
Xu Donghua was not satisfied with his own comments. After all, these comments were just to help people get started in cultivation.
But in the final analysis, it still depends on the qualifications of the person himself.
To make an analogy, it is just like Ye Yunqi's previous life, the same textbook, some people are 985, some people dance in the bar.
Xu Donghua glanced at Chen Yao and nodded, "I dare not say anything about the rest, but judging from your character, temperament, talent and aptitude, it is only a matter of time before you master the thunder technique. Now that the things have been delivered, I will leave first."
"Farewell, Master Xu Feng." Chen Yao bowed, and the space in front of him rippled slightly, and Xu Donghua's figure disappeared.
He only left one last sentence: "Xuqing Peak's Peak Master Dan Xuzi has come out of retreat. Since a war is about to start, it would be a pity not to go and take advantage of it."
Chen Yao's eyes lit up.
Xuqing Peak is the peak in Sanqing Sect that focuses on cultivating skills.
Although people who major in a skill generally do not have high combat capabilities, they are quite important in war.
There is no other reason. Most of the supplies come from Xuqing Peak.
Pills, talismans, formations, weapons, etc. are all urgently needed.
The current master of Xuqing Peak is Dan Xuzi, who is on the path of alchemy.
The sect does not pay attention to the main lineage and branch lines, but the Danxuzi lineage is considered the main lineage of the Danhua Sect outside.
His skills and techniques are naturally extraordinary.
Chen Yao changed his mind and turned to Xuqing Peak halfway.
Looking at Xuqing Peak from afar, it is divided into four major areas, and outside the four major areas, there are also various small areas.
These four major areas correspond to the four major skills of Danfu Qizhen.
All the small areas naturally have their own skills and traditions. The places where alchemy and equipment are cultivated share the same vein of earth fire.
Above the underground fire, on one side one could hear the clanging sound of iron being smelted, on the other side delicacies of plants and plants fell into the alchemy furnace, and a wonderful fragrance filled the air.
Chen Yao landed at the foot of the mountain and walked up step by step.
A hurried, dishevelled man passed by and suddenly saw Chen Yao out of the corner of his eye. He paused and asked, "Elder Chen? What can I do for you?"
Chen Yao smiled and said, "I heard that the Peak Master had come out of retreat, so I came to visit him."
"Visit?" The man chuckled. "Okay, if you want to visit me, then go ahead... I won't talk to you anymore, my alchemy furnace is still burning!"
As the man spoke, his speech became faster and faster, and then he took a step and disappeared in a flash.
This was not the first or second time that Chen Yao had come to Xuqing Peak to extort money.
After all, Chen Yao had been in Jingshan for a long time. Although there had been no major wars before, in order to reward his subordinates, he never had too much supplies.
Chen Yao was a Jindan elder after all, and soon he met Danxuzi.
Dan Xuzi was wearing a loose white Taoist robe. Although he had an immortal look, the robe was not clean and one could vaguely see some color from the medicinal juice.
Some herbs are so powerful that they can even infect vestments.
Danxu Zixu waved his hand and Chen Yao sat down opposite him without any hesitation.
Danxuzi made a pot of tea and handed over a cup.
Chen Yao drank it in one gulp and sighed, "The ginseng tea from your Xuqing Peak is still the best!"
Dan Xuzi chuckled and said, "You've taken away a lot of my ginseng tea, so I won't give it to you."
Chen Yao was not embarrassed at all, and said with a smile: "Look at what you said, a little ginseng tea is nothing to you, isn't it? It's a pity that my soldiers in front of the battlefield..."
"Stop, stop, stop. Don't talk about these nonsense. What are you here for this time?" Dan Xuzi waved his hand to stop Chen Yao from speaking.
"I heard that Dan Feng's master has come out of retreat! Now I see that I am a little confused. It seems that the day when Dan Feng's master will transform into a Nascent Soul is not far away..."
Dan Xuzi gave a bitter smile: "You, you are really good at telling lies, transformation into an infant, transformation into an infant..."
Dan Xuzi sighed quietly. Until now, although he wanted to achieve infant transformation, the process was nowhere in sight and there seemed to be no turning point.
In addition to self-cultivation, another thing is related to resources.
As the master of Xuqing Peak and a master alchemist, he should have abundant resources and be wealthy. However, the resources for Nascent Soul sometimes include not only financial resources, but also opportunities of heaven and earth that have nothing to do with financial resources.
Just as Liu Zixi said before, can the Sanqing Sect still produce a Nascent Soul Ancestor?
How could Chen Yao not know?
He took the initiative to reach out and pour himself a cup of tea: "Peak Master, I have to go to Jingshan to take up my post again. I wonder if you can teach me anything?"
"Give me a lesson? I think the gift is real, but the teaching is fake!" Dan Xuzi smiled, "Okay, I'll arrange it for you."
"Thank you Peak Master!"
When Chen Yao left Xuqing Peak, he was carrying a lot of bags, and no one knew how much he took.
Fortunately, those who practice Taoism have their own storage equipment, so they look very free and easy.
Arriving at Jingshan, a place Chen Yao was familiar with, and taking on the important task of General Jingshan, he was naturally well acquainted with the route.
Chen Yao knew that only by knowing both himself and the enemy could he win every battle, so he decisively sent a group of monks who were good at hiding and exploring. These monks were like ghosts in the dark night, sneaking into every corner of Jingshan Mountain silently. At the same time, he also personally arranged some sensing formations in Jingshan Mountain. These formations were like invisible large nets, cleverly hidden between the mountains and forests, behind strange rocks, and integrated with the surrounding environment, ready to capture the traces of the demon cultivators at any time.
After several days of patient waiting and investigation, they finally reaped the rewards. The induction array sent out fluctuations, successfully locking onto the whereabouts of a portion of the demon cultivation team.
This team is composed of dozens of demon cultivators with varying levels of cultivation, but there are several powerful demon generals among them.
They seemed to be carrying out a secret mission, frequently shuttling back and forth in the mountains, trying to avoid the sight of the Taoist army.
After obtaining accurate intelligence, Chen Yao immediately summoned the Dao army and formulated an encirclement and suppression plan.
He decided to lead the team himself and use the complex terrain of Jingshan to make a roundabout way around the demon cultivation team, surround them within the territory, and annihilate them in one fell swoop.
In order to ensure that the operation was foolproof, Chen Yao also specially deployed a group of monks who were good at hiding and tracking as the vanguard troops to sneak into the battlefield in advance and pave the way for the army.
As night fell, Jingshan was completely silent, with only the occasional roar of beasts breaking the tranquility.
Chen Yao led the Taoist army, like a ghost in the night, silently approaching the location of the magic team.
The vanguard troops have been successfully positioned. Using their familiarity with the terrain, they cleverly avoided the patrols of the demon cultivators and opened a passage for the main army.
With an order, the Taoist army surged out like a tide and quickly surrounded the demon cultivation team.
The demon cultivators noticed something was wrong and woke up, but it was too late.
Chen Yao took action himself, his whole body was shining with golden light, and his powerful cultivation of the Golden Core Stage was fully revealed. He appeared in front of a demon general in a flash, and with a flip of his hand, a golden palm print blasted towards the opponent like a mountain pressing down on his head.
Although the demon general had great cultivation, he was like an ant in front of Chen Yao's absolute strength. He was knocked away in an instant, and his life or death was unknown.
Seeing the commander take action, the morale of the Taoist army was boosted and they launched the offensive one after another.
They either held long swords or rode flying swords and engaged in fierce battles with the demon cultivators.
In Jingshan, sword energy was everywhere, spells roared, and the entire battlefield seemed to be shrouded in a thick layer of spiritual energy.
Although the demon cultivators fought hard, they gradually fell into a disadvantage due to the dual advantages of the Taoist army in terms of numbers and strength.
Under the fierce attack of the Taoist army, the demon cultivators gradually fell into a desperate situation.
Their formation was disrupted and the original counterattack became disorganized.
The demon cultivators began to show expressions of fear. They tried to break out, but were surrounded by the Taoist army and could not find a way out.
Chen Yao was like a fish in water, his figure moving freely among the demon cultivators.
He set his sights on the leader of the magic cultivator team, who was a tall magic cultivator with more powerful magic fluctuations than those of other magic cultivators.
A trace of determination flashed in Chen Yao's eyes, and he performed his strongest sword move. All the spiritual power in his body gathered at the tip of the sword, transforming into a dazzling golden sword energy, and slashed towards the demon leader.
The leader of the demons felt this powerful threat, and he tried his best to cast defensive spells to try to block this fatal blow.
However, Chen Yao's strength was too strong, and the golden sword energy easily broke through his defense and killed him directly. The body of the demon leader was turned into powder under the sword energy and dissipated in the air.
With the death of their leader, the demon group completely lost the will to resist.
The remaining demon cultivators began to flee in all directions, but the Taoist army would never let them escape so easily.
Chen Yao had anticipated this long ago. He commanded the Taoist army to set up a tight net to block the retreat routes of the demon cultivators one by one.
