The Path to Immortality

A few days later.

Five Dan Hall deacons, including Fang Ping, boarded a flying boat that was also used to escort the sect to transport disciples and supplies, and rushed to Fuyun Mountain Market.

There was nothing special on the way.

After all, the whole journey was in the heart of Liang State. Except for a few blind Qi training birds that they encountered sporadically, the journey was smooth sailing and there was no danger at all.

More than ten days later.

The flying boat arrived at the destination of this trip in the morning.

"It's so lively!"

Standing on the flying boat and looking down, Shen Huaigan exclaimed in surprise.

The area of ​​Fuyun Mountain Market is only half the size of Luoyunfang at most.

But at this moment, cultivators can be seen entering and leaving this market everywhere.

Many of them are local cultivator families and small sects. In order to fight against the demonic calamity and protect their homes, they have to send people to participate in the war.

There were also many independent cultivators recruited by the five major immortal sects of Liang State and the Immortal Alliance. For the bounty and various cultivation resources offered by the Immortal Alliance, they took the initiative to join the Yingzhou front line and fight against the demons emerging from the Qingyuan Demon Realm.

In the short time when the flying boat was docked, there were no less than a hundred streams of light, either falling into the market from afar or rising from the market and disappearing into the sky.

Long before the flying boat arrived at the Fuyun Mountain Market, it had already released a communication talisman and flew into the market.

However, in a moment, a thin and slightly pale foundation-building cultivator flew out of the market.

He looked around and turned around to fly towards the flying boat.

Fang Ping and others were led by Luo Datong, a deacon of the Dan Hall of the family faction.

Seeing the people from the Fuyun Mountain Market appear, Luo Datong spread his sleeves and drove the escape light to greet them.

"I haven't seen you for a few years, Deacon Luo is still as charming as ever!"

The skinny foundation-building cultivator seemed to be an old acquaintance of Luo Datong. He greeted him warmly from a distance.

"Junior Brother Zhao, your breath is unstable and your essence and blood are depleted. Did you get injured recently?"

Luo Datong looked at the cultivator Zhao and was a little surprised.

Zhao, a foundation-building cultivator, smiled bitterly and said, "A few days ago, I unfortunately encountered a blood demon in the late stage of foundation-building. I used the secret technique of purple sun burning blood, and was lucky enough to escape and retreat to Fuyun Mountain Market to recuperate."

"A late stage of foundation-building demon..."

Luo Datong took a breath and said with a little uneasiness, "Is the situation on the front line so critical?"

The cultivator surnamed Zhao sighed and said, "The demons pouring out of the Qingyuan Demon Realm are simply endless, and they can never be killed. In fact, if we are not in a hurry to pacify the demon calamity, we only need to defend the immortal cities and strongholds everywhere, rely on the power of the formation, set up defenses layer by layer, and continuously consume the number of demons. In as short as three to five years, or as long as ten to eight years, the demon calamity can be pacified at a much lower cost. But..."

He pointed to the north, and the helplessness on his face was self-evident.

Luo Datong immediately understood.

In order to avoid being attacked from both sides and fighting on two fronts, the five major immortal gates of Liang State must quell the demonic calamity before the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance swallows up Yue State and marches to Mingyun Immortal City.

To achieve this, the five major immortal gates did not hesitate to adopt radical countermeasures, mobilizing a large number of cultivators to attack from all sides, pinning the battlefield to the Yuehe Plain, and not giving up an inch, and even actively pushing the front line back in the face of the impact of the demon tide.

This tough strategy can certainly eliminate a large number of demons at the fastest speed, but it also means paying more costs and sacrifices.

The cultivator surnamed Zhao encountered the blood evil demon in the late stage of foundation building, and he was lucky to come back alive. He was lucky.

The cultivator surnamed Zhao also understood this, so he did not complain about himself, but quickly adjusted his mood.

No longer mentioning Yingzhou and the demonic calamity, he turned to ask about the Sword Talisman Sect of Gan State in the north.

"Some time ago, the envoy sent by the Immortal Alliance to the Sword Talisman Sect for the third time, has not sent back any news yet?"

Relying on the power of the Immortal Alliance alone, it is still a bit difficult to fight against the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance.

If the Sword Talisman Sect of Gan Country, and even the righteous cultivators of the entire Gan Country, join the Immortal Alliance, and march south from the north of Chen Country at a critical moment, they can definitely catch the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance off guard.

Luo Datong shook his head and sighed, "The current leader of the Sword Talisman Sect is still a bit conservative... Although they agreed to provide secret assistance, they are still unwilling to act rashly."

"Why is that?"

The cultivator surnamed Zhao asked in confusion, "Don't they know that the lips and teeth are cold? If the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance really swallows up the entire Immortal Alliance, how can the Jian Fu Sect of Ganguo alone be a match for the entire Ten Thousand Demons Alliance?"

Luo Datong pondered and said, "I personally guess that there are two reasons."

"First, although Bingpo Mountain was breached and the Immortal Alliance suffered a great loss, the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance also suffered a great loss. Perhaps the Sword Talisman Sect feels that the Immortal Alliance is now powerful enough to fight the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance again. They are planning to wait and see for the time being. , want to wait until the last moment to make a move, so as to gain the greatest benefit. "

"On the other hand, it is naturally because Yuan Ji Zhenren has not returned yet."

"Without the return of their own Grand Elder, Jian Fu Zong has always been a little less confident and unwilling to actively escalate the relationship with Wan Mo League. The Demon Lord of Huan Mo Zong is also worried that rashly attacking Gan Guo will force Jian Fu Zong to use the emergency token and recall their own Grand Elder in advance. Therefore, the two parties currently have a tacit understanding and maintain a state of non-interference on the surface. "

"The key now is to look at time. "

"If the Grand Elder of Jian Fu Zong can find an opportunity to advance to the middle stage of Yuanying first, or determine that there is no hope of advancement and return in advance, then Jian Fu Zong is expected to quickly join the war, which is a huge benefit for us. "

"If the Demon Lord of the Ten Thousand Demons Alliance can annex the two countries of Liang and Yue before then, the initiative will probably be biased towards the demon cultivators..."

Luo Datong's analysis of the situation was very thorough, and the monk surnamed Zhao immediately understood.

But his expression was not much relaxed, but rather aggrieved.

Their own sect has paid countless costs to resist desperately, but the final victory or defeat has little to do with them. It all depends on when other people's Nascent Souls return...

This feeling of powerlessness is very uncomfortable.

But he also knows that without Master Yuanying sitting in charge, no matter how many golden elixirs and foundations are built, they are just numbers on paper, and Master Yuanying can blow them away in one breath!

This is the greatest significance of Yuanying monks to a force and a sect.

Fortunately, as the war continues today, this is not the first time that monk surnamed Zhao has such a realization, but it has never been as profound as it is today.

He quickly calmed down and tried his best not to think about these disappointing things.

Looking at Fang Ping and others on the flying boat, he put on an enthusiastic look and said: "I, Zhao Qian, am currently one of the monks in charge of Fuyun Shanfang City. I welcome all fellow Luoyang Sect members to come. All of you are here. , the safety of Fuyunshanfang City should be safe!”

Seeing him say this, Luo Datong suddenly felt a little pressure.

He quickly declared: "I and the five others are just here to help. Our main task is to refining the elixir. If you encounter any big danger, it's best not to expect us to be of great help."

——Don’t worry about how the situation will develop in the next year and a half, let’s clear the blame first.
