Journey to the head

Chapter 701: The Battle of Life and Death Begins

Amid the rumbling sound, the forest southeast of Mianlong Mountain trembled violently.

Previously, he had received a message from Lu Qian, which involved the Sikong family, one of the four old families, and that the family was connected with the corpse clan and conspiring to overthrow Cangzhou, a crime that would surely lead to the extermination of the entire clan. Even though Miaomiao Xuanjun had a favorable impression of Lu Qian, he did not dare to believe his one-sided words.

Therefore, Lu Qian made a plan and invited him here directly. He hid his body dozens of miles away and used a telescope to transmit Kui Shi's words verbatim.

This time Miaomiao Xuanjun was both shocked and angry. The culprit behind the turmoil and endless disputes in the Xuanwei sect for decades has been found, and there is a bigger conspiracy hidden underneath!
If that innate spiritual energy was really given to Sikong Sheng, coupled with all kinds of incredible treasures in the prison, Sikong Sheng might really be able to achieve the primordial spirit and then subvert the rule of Xuanwei Sect in Cangzhou!

I don't know what stage it has reached now?
With such a mood, Miaomiao Xuanjun showed no mercy. In an instant, the sea of ​​sand rolled up, and golden light enveloped the sky. The Dharma Domain and the vast ocean of the desolate sea had already opened up, swallowing up the corpse in one go.

Even though Xuanjun's soul has left his body to this point, the means he can use are discounted, but the mere fact that he can use the magic domain is already something that an ordinary Nascent Soul cannot handle.

The Law Realm is the "small realm" or "pseudo realm" of the Primordial Spirit Xuanjun. In the Law Realm, all of the methods of the Primordial Spirit Xuanjun will be greatly increased, and all of his magical powers will be upgraded and strengthened. Correspondingly, the enemies who are taken into the Law Realm will have their methods fully suppressed.

Therefore, for Yuanshen Xuanjun, the law domain is the most powerful means. Generally speaking, only the law domain can fight against the law domain.

Now, only a loud bang could be heard in the air, sand waves were flying in the vast ocean, and a figure was rushing left and right, struggling violently like an insect trapped in a spider web. Several times, a murderous aura rushed out from the sand waves, as if it could tear the sea of ​​sand apart and get out.

But all this was just an illusion. In fact, Lu Qian's consciousness could hardly penetrate the Dharma Domain and could not see the scene inside. He could only see that the Dharma Domain was shrinking, like a spider web getting tighter and tighter, and the impact of the corpse was becoming weaker and weaker.

Even though Kui Shi tried every possible means, even using the secret method of shedding his skin, and transformed himself from a strong middle-aged man to a thin teenager, then to a tender toddler, and finally to a baby covered in black, escaping death time and time again, he could only linger on.

To be honest, if Kui Shi's method were put in the outside world, it would be very shocking. Even though he has turned into a baby now, his power has not decreased at all, but has become more solid and fierce. It is estimated that it would be difficult for an ordinary Yuanying to subdue him. He is worthy of being the leader assigned to Mianlong Mountain.

If it weren't for the invitation of Miaomiao Xuanjun, it would be very difficult for the Yunshan Sect to kill him on its own.

Now that Miaomiao Xuanjun is helping, things are much easier.

Lu Qian was watching Miaomiao Xuanjun crushing Kui Shi with his Dharma Domain, sensing the fluctuations of the Dharma Domain, and trying to figure out the mystery. Suddenly, his mind moved, he turned around, and saw Jiang Qingfeng flying towards him, so he hurried forward to catch him.

"Senior Sister, you don't look well, where are you hurt?" Seeing that she was pale and unsteady, Lu Qian quickly pulled her to check.

But Jiang Qingfeng shook her head anxiously. She glanced at the churning domain in the air, pulled Lu Qian away, waved her hand and cast a shielding talisman, and then said hastily: "Junior brother, our previous guess was wrong. The target of the corpse clan is you and Senior Brother Wang Yu! They came to Cangzhou to capture you!"

Lu Qian was shocked: "How did you know this?"

Jiang Qingfeng picked up the important thing and told Lu Qian how he had met Du Yeming, who had become a corpse slave, and how he had gotten the truth out of him. Lu Qian suddenly felt heavy in his heart and many inferences flashed through his mind in an instant.

At the beginning, relying on the power of the corpse clan remnants, they might be able to break into the Sleeping Dragon Mountain, and perhaps capture Lu Qian and Wang Yu. But this would definitely cause a lot of noise, and the Yunshan Sect was not an easy target. Even if they succeeded, it would take some effort. By then, the support from the Xuanwei Sect, the Spirit Beast Sect, and the Qinglian True Sect would have arrived, and they would definitely not be able to leave Cangzhou.

Therefore, they need the assistance of Sikong family. On the one hand, they stir up internal strife in Xuanwei Sect, and on the other hand, they support Sikong family to become the new Yuanshen force, fight with Xuanwei Sect for Cangzhou, and then take this opportunity to take down Yunshan Sect and capture Lu Qian and Wang Yu.

The Sikong family also needs the various incredible treasures and mysterious spiritual immortals that appeared in the dream of Emperor Tianjun of the Prison Corpse Ridge to help the Sikong family grow rapidly in strength, and most importantly, to help Sikong Sheng get a glimpse of the realm of the primordial spirit.

It seems that the temptation of achieving the Yuanshen and dominating Cangzhou is too great, even the Triumphant Spirit Lord could not resist and made such a choice. Is the Yuanshen Great Tribulation of Life and Death Refining the Body really that terrifying?

However, no matter how much he desired, Sikong Sheng would not hand over the fate of his family to the hands of the corpse clan. Therefore, he would never let his own cultivators accept the corpse seal and become corpse slaves. Moreover, if they became corpse slaves, their cultivation would not be able to improve.

In short, the relationship between the Corpse Clan and the Sikong Family is more inclined towards cooperation rather than control and being controlled.

It's just as Kui Shi said, even if the Sikong family didn't have any hard constraints on them, once they cooperated with the corpse clan, they would be cutting themselves off from the human race. There was only one way to go, and there was no possibility of defecting.

The Sikong family wants to hide their relationship with the Corpse Clan, so they will try to capture Lu Qian and Wang Yu themselves, and then hand them over to the Corpse Clan to prevent the Corpse Clan from being directly exposed in Cangzhou.

Of course, the Corpse Clan would not care about the life or death of the Sikong family, but on the other hand, if the Sikong family did not cooperate, the Corpse Clan alone could not kidnap Lu Qian and Wang Yu, and all the investment in the Sikong family would be in vain.

Therefore, the two sides must have gone through a long game, and finally the Corpse Clan set up their base camp in the Sikong family's territory, temporarily accepting the Sikong family's plan, instead of directly ambushing around Mianlong Mountain.

This small force now hidden around Mianlong Mountain was most likely secretly sent here by the Corpse Clan, and the Sikong family has no idea about it.

No matter what the situation is, the ultimate goal of the corpse clan is himself and Senior Brother Wang, so the next battle plan must be adjusted.

After so many years, the strength of the corpse clan must have greatly improved.

Not only did they help the Sikong family, the Sikong family could also secretly help them find and capture monks to refine into corpse slaves.

They were already able to invade Luzhou openly, and the fact that they had snatched the innate spiritual energy from the Yuanying sect Jinling Sect was proof of that.

Jinlingmen. Lu Qian suddenly had an idea and wrote down this idea.

Earlier, the Stepping Clouds and Flowing Clouds Chariot carrying Zhao Yunchang circled the periphery of the Sikong clan's territory with the "Corpse Chasing" Dao pattern, and quickly sensed a circle. Immediately, his face turned pale and he looked anxious.

According to his perception, there were a total of four Nascent Soul-level evil corpses in the Sikong clan's territory, as well as a total of thirty Golden Core-level evil corpses and corpse slaves!

Of course, while the strength of the Corpse Clan has greatly increased, the strength of the Sikong Family has probably also doubled.

Lu Qian still remembered that when the Spirit Beast Sect, the Qinglian True Sect and the Yunshan Sect decided to counterattack the Sikong family, they selected a late Jindan cultivator from the Sikong family. However, when they were besieging him, they discovered that he had unexpectedly become a perfect Jindan cultivator!
This must be closely related to the support of the zombie clan.

Just thinking about the innate spiritual herbs that are everywhere in the Corpse Prison Ridge, and how many cultivators' cultivation can be pushed to a new level, Lu Qian felt extremely heavy in his heart.

Perhaps this is the reason why the Sikong family inexplicably chose to have a big quarrel with the three sects in front of Xuanjun, and then suddenly gave up all external interests and completely closed off the mountains.

At that time, the cooperation between the Sikong family and the Corpse Clan must have entered a new stage. Sikong Sheng was worried that if the fight continued, the three sects would find that his cultivators had suddenly made rapid progress, and thus become suspicious, affecting the entire plan. So he decisively paid a certain price and withdrew.

Now, after thirty years of seclusion in the mountains, no one knows what kind of behemoth the Sikong family has become in secret!
At this moment, the telescope in Lu Qian's arms vibrated again, and a message from Jiyang Villa came from the Communications Office of the Intelligence Department.

After Lu Qian answered the call, his face became even colder.

Jiyang Villa sent a warning from Wei Zhaixing!
A disaster is coming to the Yunshan sect. If we are not careful, we may be destroyed!
In order to help the Yunshan Sect change its destiny, Wei Zhaixing used the magical power of moving stars and changing constellations at all costs. Even after using the Creation Fire Pill, he only managed to save his life and is still in a coma.

Such warnings must be taken with extreme caution.

But now he has learned the real purpose of the corpse clan. On the other hand, he has Zhao Yunchang's "corpse chasing" Taoist pattern, which can locate the position of the corpse clan at any time and sense their specific strength.

The fact that he had just wiped out the six corpse demons and corpse slaves around Mianlong Mountain had fully demonstrated his ability. In this way, he could set up defenses against them and could be said to be inherently invincible.

On the other hand, Miaomiao Xuanjun also knew about the conspiracy of the Corpse Clan and the Sikong Family, and he could immediately summon the strength of the entire state to suppress them. Even if the Corpse Clan and the Sikong Family were powerful, they could not be the opponents of the entire Cangzhou.

Although this battle is dangerous, the overall situation is still under control. Why did Wei Zhaixing judge that Yunshan Sect has reached an extremely dangerous moment? Where does the danger come from, and how to deal with it?

While Lu Qian was frowning and thinking hard, the battle in the air had come to an end. Miaomiao Xuanjun's domain rolled up, wrapping the incomplete but still fierce-looking baby inside.

He shouted a few questions, but the corpse kept cursing and refused to reveal any information. Miaomiao Xuanjun lost his patience, clenched his hands, and with a "puff", black blood spurted out, and the corpse monster was crushed into a pool of meat paste.

In the end, the Nascent Soul can't make any waves in front of the Primordial Spirit.

Seeing this, Lu Qian felt a little more at ease and immediately retracted the barrier. Miaomiao Xuanjun landed in front of the two of them, his face serious and his voice urgent.

"Lu Qian, if you hadn't seen through the conspiracy in advance, the Corpse Clan and the Sikong Family would have been in collusion and prepared for several years. If the situation had really taken shape, I'm afraid Cangzhou would have been in danger of being overthrown."

"If you can perform great deeds again, you will be a lucky general in Cangzhou. Once you have wiped out the evildoers, you will be rewarded handsomely."

Lu Qianxun thanked him a few times and asked hurriedly, "These corpses escaped from the Corpse Prison Ridge. They are related to the Ninth Heavenly Monarch, the Immortal Emperor Corpse Monarch. Should we report this information to Taiyi Paradise immediately?"

Although Lu Qian himself showed up in front of Taiyi Paradise and had a few words with several True Lords, the controlling sect of Cangzhou was Xuanwei Sect after all, and only Xuanwei Sect had the means to directly contact and report to Taiyi Paradise.

Miao Miao Xuan Jun nodded: "Of course, I will report this to Taiyi Paradise. However, we have to deal with the evil spirits of the corpse clan and the Sikong family by ourselves. We cannot trouble Taiyi Paradise to intervene. You, the Yunshan Sect, must also do your best."

Of course Lu Qian understood Miaomiao Xuanjun’s thoughts.

Since this matter concerns the Corpse Clan and the Ninth Heavenly Monarch, it must of course be reported to Taiyi Le Tu, but Taiyi Le Tu cannot take action to clean up the situation.

The Sikong family is a sect in Cangzhou. They colluded with the corpse clan and prepared to cause chaos. It was already a sign of the Xuanwei sect's lax control and inadequate monitoring.

How could Taiyi Paradise clean up the mess that happened in its own jurisdiction? Cangzhou, the commander of Xuanwei Sect, had the strength to suppress this mess. If he suppressed it and solved it himself, his merits and demerits would offset each other, and perhaps his merits would outweigh his demerits.

But if Taiyi Le Tu is asked to take action, it can only mean that the Xuanwei Sect's strength has declined and it no longer has the ability to command and suppress Cangzhou. The future of the Xuanwei Sect is really worrying.

To put it in modern terms, the phone call to Taiyi Paradise should be like this: "Boss, let me report to you, I have a problem here, you are right to blame me, but don't worry, I can solve it, my plan is... I will report the progress to you at any time, and I will definitely solve it beautifully, please rest assured, Boss!"

Standing in Miaomiao Xuanjun's position, he would of course choose to solve it this way. Lu Qian had nothing to say. The last corpse chaos in Dengzhou was also suppressed and resolved by Dengzhou itself.

At least Miaomiao did not choose to conceal the truth, and that is enough.

This matter has been reported to Taiyi Paradise, so it will naturally attract their attention. If unpredictable changes occur and the situation deteriorates drastically, to the point where it becomes a complete calamity, Taiyi Paradise will always step in to clean up the mess.

Lu Qian felt more at ease, and then he heard Miaomiao Xuanjun say in a deep voice: "I will return to Xiyi Mountain now and send a message to all the sects in Cangzhou to mobilize all the troops in Cangzhou to attack the Sikong family and the evil spirits of the corpse clan!"

"Lu Qian, although you have made great contributions, the Yunshan Sect is one of the pillars of Cangzhou. You must also do your best to serve the public in this battle."

Lu Qian could only respond: "The Sikong family and my faction are already at loggerheads, and today they have colluded with the corpse monster. We must go all out to wipe them out!"

Miaomiao Xuanjun nodded, and his voice softened a little: "Don't worry, after the evil spirits are exterminated, the wealth and power left by the Sikong family will naturally be given to the Yunshan Sect as the largest share."

As soon as the words fell, a silver light suddenly rolled up and flew away into the sky.

Lu Qian remained silent. Miaomiao Xuanjun's attitude was also very clear. The Yunshan Sect could not stay out of it.

If you actively participate in the war, you will naturally gain great wealth in the future, but if you passively avoid the war, you will not get any benefits afterwards.

In this case, the Yunshan Sect must send its main forces to fight.

Lu Qian's heart suddenly jumped, Xuanjizi Wei Zhaixing's warning was still ringing in his ears. Could it be that this battle was extremely dangerous, and there might be unpredictable changes. Yunshan sent a large force to fight, and it might encounter a disaster and be destroyed on the battlefield? !

We have to go to war, but we also have to prevent a disaster. So how should we deal with this?
Lu Qian's eyes flashed, and he pulled Jiang Qingfeng towards the mountain gate and started a communication.

"Order all the cultivators above the foundation building stage in the sect to gather in the main hall immediately."

"Take the imperial edict of the Pacification Commissioner of the Nine Northwest Counties of Cangzhou and issue a proclamation to all the sects above the Foundation Establishment level in the nine counties of Cangzhou to immediately organize their combat forces and wait for my call!"

"The battle of life and death has begun!" (End of this chapter)
