A hundred years of cultivating immortals, I'm dying, and Goldfinger came here

Chapter 223 The reason for guarding

Seeing this, several people nodded to Li Fei in return.

Within a moment, the group of people, led by Hua Mengyou, arrived at the meeting hall of Ancient Yuan City.

After everyone was seated, Hua Mengyou looked at everyone present, with a slightly dignified expression on her face and said:

"Everyone, I believe you all have questions as to why you and I were arranged here.

Moreover, this arrangement involves eight Zifu monks.

Among them, six of you and I have reached the late stage of Zifu. "

Seeing Hua Menyou suddenly mention this matter, everyone present except Li Fei couldn't help but look straight.

indeed.

This was something they were quite confused about before they came.

According to normal practice, when a fairy city is equipped with a large protective formation, there is usually one monk in the late stage of Zifu, plus three or four monks in the early and middle stages of Zifu to guard it, and that's about it.

But what about them?

There are six monks from the late Zifu period.

In addition, there is Jiang Rendao, who is on the third floor of Zifu, and Bai Zixuan, who is on the fifth floor of Zifu.

Combined with the nearly fourth-level protective formation here, the Luohe Taiyi Formation, even if they encounter the fourth-level Jindan Demon King, they are enough to block it.

Such a huge force was placed entirely in this Ancient Yuan City.

If there was no reason, Jiang Chengxuan and the others would not believe it anyway.

"It's true."

Just listen to Hua Mengyou continue: "The main reason why you have arranged everything for me here is actually..."

Hua Mengyou took a deep breath slowly and then said in a deep voice:

"A top-notch fourth-level spiritual vein was discovered beneath this fairy city of yours and mine."

"What? The top level four spiritual veins?"

These words immediately shocked everyone present.

Obviously, they all understand what the so-called top-level fourth-level spiritual veins mean.

It is no exaggeration to say that a top-level fourth-level spiritual vein is enough to support more than six or seven real people in the late Jindan stage to practice at the same time.

If it were a demon beast, there would be six or seven demon kings.

If this news gets out.

Especially if the demon beasts find out, those demon kings who fight to death all day long for territory and resources will go completely crazy.

No matter what the cost, they must turn the Guyuan Mountains and even a thousand-mile radius into a paradise for their monsters.

Under such temptation, even two ethnic groups who were once mortal enemies of each other may temporarily give up and work together to deal with their great enemy, the human race.

Almost in an instant, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Jiang Rendao, and the Bai family all felt a huge pressure in their hearts.

Bai Mingshan, the ancestor of the Bai family, said: "Fellow Daoist Hua, and fellow Taoist Li Fei, may I ask you two, who currently knows about the existence of the fourth-order top-level spiritual veins underground in this city?"

The implication is that this news has not been known to unrelated people.

Especially the monster side.

If this news has been leaked, or there is a risk of being leaked, then they will consider leaving without hesitation.

Even if this order comes from His Majesty Bishui Sword, they still have to leave.

Even if they may be wanted or even abused in the future, they will never make fun of themselves and the lives of the entire family.

In fact, once this news is leaked out.

Especially when the demonic beasts learned about it, there was no need to consider that the Ancient Yuan City where they were located was simply impossible to defend.

Not to mention them, even if there were two or three Jindan Daoist present, it would be impossible to hold on.

When the time comes, the monsters and beasts will definitely risk everything to take this position as their own.

At this time, even though Jiang Chengxuan was as dark as smoke, these two friends who could be said to be Hua Mengyou were all fixating their eyes on her perfect face.

Observe the changes in her expression carefully.

If something is really wrong.

So even if we are good friends, we can't say anything. We can only say sorry.

Like the others in Bai Mingshan, they would never lead their clansmen to die here when they knew they were going to die.

Fortunately, Hua Menyou and Li Fei looked calm from beginning to end.

It was as if they didn't see their thoughts at all.

Hua Mengyou smiled slightly, then looked at everyone present and said:

"Don't worry, so far, apart from you and me here, only the core elders of our sect and the supreme elders of Tianyue Sect know about this news."

After a pause, Hua Mengyou said again:

“It was Elder Liuhuo of our sect and Elder Bing of Tianyue Sect, who was also Elder Wen, who discovered the abnormality here.

As soon as they noticed something strange here, they used great magic power and various means to block any clues that might exist here.

Afterwards, they notified their respective sects.

Let the other Jindan elders in the door come forward.

Without alerting the demonic beasts, many Jindan Daoists worked together to completely isolate all the energy of the top-level fourth-level spiritual vein.

Now, even if a real person with a golden elixir level and good at calculations came over, it would be impossible to easily calculate the anomalies here. "

"I see."

After listening to Hua Mengyou's explanation, Jiang Chengxuan and others present felt slightly relieved.

There were many Jindan masters from the two old Jindan sects taking action at the same time. I think the abnormality here should not be easily noticed by anyone.

In this way, it seems to explain why so many monks from the late Zifu were asked to come here at the same time to take charge of guarding.

Thinking about it, they must want to protect the line of defense of the Guyuan Mountains in this monster chaos.

At least the Ancient Yuan City where they were located could not be easily lost.

Otherwise, once the monster is allowed to occupy this place.

After so long, it may be impossible to hide the existence of top-level fourth-level spiritual veins here.

At that time, in order to ensure the safety of this area, many demon kings may trigger a medium-sized or even larger-scale beast tide.

Don't doubt the integrity of those demon kings. In the face of such huge interests, any agreement is nonsense.

Unless they really go too far, there is a certain possibility that they will attract the attention of their human Nascent Soul Lord.

Otherwise, the human race can only hold their noses and admit this kind of dumb loss.

In addition to the above, there is another reason why monsters cannot occupy this place, and it is also the most important reason. That is that with this top-level fourth-order spiritual vein, the strength of the monsters will be limited within a certain period of time. There will definitely be a huge increase.

This is definitely a potentially huge threat to their entire Liang Kingdom immortal world.

If it doesn't work well, it's possible that when the next monster beast rebellion comes, their human side will be defeated.

After thinking about these questions, Jiang Chengxuan and everyone couldn't help but have a new doubt in their minds.

That is because the location here is so important. Why not just let the Jindan masters from the two major sects come to guard it in person?

As if seeing the doubts in everyone's hearts, Hua Mengyou couldn't help but continue:

"The main reason why you and I are here to guard the place instead of Jin Dan is because we don't want to alert the monsters.

After all, after so many years, we humans and monsters all know very well what the situation is in this area of ​​the Guyuan Mountains.

Let you and I, the Zifu monks, once again, even if the power placed here is slightly greater, can still be explained by the reason that we, the human race, are determined to defend the defense line.

But if the person here is Jin Dan Zhenren, then it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the Monster King.

At least the existence of the Demon King is itself a destabilizing factor.

Once time passes, it is inevitable that the other party will see some flaws.

Not worth the candle.

When I say this, I think you all can understand it, right? "

"Ah."

After hearing Hua Mengyou's explanation, everyone present, including Jiang Chengxuan, couldn't help but nodded.

This explanation does make sense.

It is indeed a very safe arrangement to have six of them late Zifu monks, plus two other Zifu monks, for a total of eight Zifu monks to guard here.

In this way, it will not attract too much attention from the Demon King, nor will there be any surprises due to insufficient guarding power here.

"All right."

At this time, Hua Mengyou said again:

“Now I have made it clear what I need to explain.

Next, in order to ensure that our secrets here are not leaked, please take the inner demon oath first. "

Everyone present had obviously expected Hua Mengyou's request.

After all, for such an important matter here, it is impossible for everyone to not require any precautions.

Jiang Chengxuan and others can also understand this.

Soon, the group of people made the Inner Demon Oath one after another in front of Hua Menyou and Li Fei.

a while.

Then Jiang Chengxuan said: "Fellow Daoist Hua, we have just arrived here not long ago, and we don't know much about Ancient Yuan City and its surroundings.

You have been here for a while, so you might as well tell us in detail what the current situation is like in our ancient Yuan City and its surrounding areas. "

After the exchange just now, Jiang Chengxuan and the others already knew that the Bai family and the others who were here just arrived here one step earlier than them.

The corresponding situation here is also not very clear.

At this moment, everyone heard Jiang Chengxuan's words and couldn't help but turn their attention to Hua Mengyou.

Hua Mengyou pondered for a moment, then said with a serious expression:

"To be honest, before you guys came here, the monsters had already launched an attack on our ancient Yuan City."

"What? Have you already launched an attack on my ancient Yuan City?"

Everyone couldn't help but be surprised.

Hua Mengyou nodded.

"good.

Fortunately, that attack was just a test. Although the number of monsters was large, no monsters above the second level appeared.

Ancient Yuan City did not suffer any threats. "

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan and others couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If it's just a tentative attack, then it's really nothing.

I'm just afraid that if the other party comes forward, they will use all their strength, which will cause a real headache.

After all, the number of their monks is no greater than that of monsters.

It's so high that the entire Ancient Yuan City can only gather a few thousand people at most.

And what about the monsters?

Tens of thousands, or even more.

Even if they are nobles of the Purple Mansion, most of them have reached the advanced stage of cultivation.

Facing tens of thousands or even more than one hundred thousand demon beasts, one will also feel great pressure.

It's hard to say how long their city defense formation can last.

At this time, everyone roughly planned and allocated the responsibilities that they would perform in the future, and then quickly left the meeting hall without staying any longer.

When they came outside, Jiang Chengxuan and the others went to their cave here under the personal leadership of Hua Mengyou.

Looking at the backs of Jiang Chengxuan and his entourage leaving, Bai Zixuan of the Bai family couldn't help but frown slightly.

She looked at her brothers and ancestors and said: "Seventh uncle, and brothers, the Jiang family is just a family that has re-emerged in recent years, how can they be on an equal footing with my Bai family?

Especially Hua Mengyou.

Judging from her attitude towards each other, she clearly puts our two families on the same level.

Even in every subsequent patrol and garrison mission, your family, my family, and Hua Mengyou themselves are all the same. Do you think too highly of the Jiang family? "

Hearing Bai Zixuan's words, Bai Mingshan, the ancestor of the Bai family, and Bai Yuanchen, the current head of the Bai family, couldn't help but look at each other.

Then Bai Yuanchen said: "Zixuan, what do you think of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan of the Jiang family?"

"them?"

A flash of thought flashed in Bai Zixuan's eyes, and then she tried to speak:

"It should be the Zifu monk who has just been promoted to the later stage, right?

I didn't feel much of a threat from them.

how? Is there any problem between the two of them? "

After saying that, she couldn't help but look at her brother and uncle again.

Bai Yuanchen shook his head and said, "You don't feel threatened by them, that's because the difference in strength between you and them is too big.

Just like ants do not feel threatened by tigers. "

"Uh……"

Bai Zixuan suddenly opened her bright eyes slightly.

"how can that be?"

"Nothing is impossible."

Bai Yuanchen said with a slightly solemn expression: "My seventh uncle and I both felt very clearly just now that we felt unprecedented pressure on Jiang Chengxuan and his wife.

and……"

Having said this, Bai Yuanchen couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then heard him continue:

"Jiang Chengxuan's wife, Shen Ruyan, known as the Fairy Luo Lei, has truly reached the ninth level of the Purple Mansion."

"What? The ninth floor of Zi Mansion?"

A look of shock suddenly appeared on Bai Zixuan's face.

You must know that the ancestor of their Bai family, Bai Mingshan, who she now calls her seventh uncle together with them, has a cultivation level at the peak of the ninth level of the Zi Mansion.

Moreover, he stayed in this realm for a full hundred years.

And what about Shen Ruyan?

How long has she been there?

Is this already a ninth-level monk from the Zi Mansion?

When Bai Zixuan thought of this, she seemed to have thought of something, and couldn't help but look at the two people in front of her again, and couldn't help but say:

"Brother, seventh uncle, since Shen Ruyan is already at the ninth level of the Zi Mansion, then her husband Jiang Chengxuan is also...?"
