The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

Spring passed and autumn came, and in the blink of an eye, five years had passed since Xu Zhiyu came to Yuebo Fortress.

In the past five years, the human race and the demon race have fought dozens of battles, and they can be regarded as winners and losers.

However, there are also careful monks who have discovered that although the demon clan's momentum is extremely large every time, it seems that it will defeat the human race in one fell swoop.

But when the human race was ready to fight them to the death, the top leaders of the demon race ran away faster than anything else, as if they were deliberately playing tricks on the human monks.

However, the upper echelons of the human race, that is, the Nascent Soul Lords of the Lingxiao Sect, did not dare to take it lightly. Instead, they became more cautious. They all suspected that this was a trick used by the demon clan to confuse the human race.

In the past few years, Xu Zhiyu has become very prosperous in the Talisman Palace with his excellent talisman making skills. As long as he turns in a certain number of third-level spiritual talismans and second-level spiritual talismans on time every month, he will be completely free. .

When he was free, he also went to Qi Peak to find his ancestor Xu Deming, but unfortunately, he couldn't see anyone every time he went there.

There is no way, refining a weapon is different from making a talisman. Refining a third-level magic weapon will take at least one or two months, and at most one or two years.

He also often went to the war hall to inquire about the situation of his family members. He learned that in the past few years, the clan members had performed well and none of them had died. This made him very happy. He lamented that the talisman he had spent a huge amount of spiritual stones to buy had no effect. Buy for free.

This is the truth. Their survival to this day may be related to luck, but what they rely more on is the life-saving thing Xu Zhiyu gave them.

As mentioned before, although in every battle, the top leaders of the demon clan do not confront the human race head-on, but that is only at the level of Nascent Soul.

This is not the case for battles below the Nascent Soul, that is, below the fifth level. When the two sides meet, it is life and death.

This resulted in heavy losses in low-level combat power, regardless of whether they were humans or monsters.

No one on the demon side kept statistics, so I didn’t know the specific situation, but the casualties on the human side were accidentally spread.

The casualty rate for Foundation Establishment monks is around 30%, for Zifu, around 15%, and for Jindan, around 50%.

This can already be said to have caused heavy casualties. After all, the war is still going on. If it continues like this, who knows how many humans will be involved.

Speaking of this, the demon tribe may have been so angry with the cultivators in Zuzhou as the rumors said, so the scale of the beast tide launched this time is absolutely unprecedented.

According to the news from the Jiu Shi Sect, the scale of this beast wave is almost as big as the war between the human and demon clans nearly 100,000 years ago to compete for the ownership of Xuanzhou.

The Hengduan Mountains stretch across the Xuanzhou Continent from east to west. The Monster Clan has opened four main battlefields in the southeast and northwest respectively. Yuebo Fortress is only one of them, and it is the smallest one. It is so tragic here, and other battlefields are simply Unimaginable.

This time, in addition to the Yuanying monks sent by the Jiushi Sect to put out the fire everywhere, Taiyang Tower also took action, but their main support was not here, but in the Wanxiang Kingdom in the west, where the monsters made the most noise. I heard that the sixth level The Demon King has appeared.

Seeing that the demon clan was so aggressive, Jiu Shi Sect and Taiyang Tower still joined forces to ask for help from other forces in Zuzhou. After all, this time the demon clan broke out in a beast tide, it was difficult to break away from them.

Finally, Zuzhou agreed and sent a total of fifty Yuanying monks, led by a newly promoted god from the Shinto Sect, to rush to Xuanzhou.

After the arrival of these Nascent Souls, the demon tribe suddenly became weak, and their actions of provoking troubles became less and less. However, Xu Zhiyu did not think that the demon tribe in the Hengduan Mountains would just give up.

He had seen in the Sutra Pavilion of Taiyang Tower that the number of great demon kings of the demon clan was over a hundred, and it was not like they had no backup to look for.

Today was the day to hand in the talisman. Xu Zhiyu left the talisman room and temporary cave specially allocated to him in the Talisman Palace early and headed towards the Mission Hall.

Because he came early, there weren't many people here, so he found an unoccupied window and handed over his token and the drawn talisman.

"Hey, Fellow Daoist Xu, you came so early. Every time you hand in the talisman, you are always the most active one. No wonder the hall master often calls on us to learn from you!"

"Wu Daoyou is friendly, you are too flattering. Drawing the magic talisman is my duty. It should be completed on time and on point."

After chatting with this familiar monk from Lingxiao Sect's Zifu for a while, he happily handed over the task. He was very happy when he saw the extra 500 contribution points on the token.

The value of the contribution points is the same as that of mid-grade spiritual stones. Calculated in this way, he can earn 6,000 mid-grade spiritual stones a year.

This income might not be much in normal times, but now during the war, not only do you not have to go to the battlefield, but you can also earn such a large sum of spiritual stones, which is already very good.

And this time, in order to stimulate the forces under its command, Lingxiao Sect was bleeding a lot. The Foundation Establishment Pill and the Foundation Establishment Talisman were directly exchanged in unlimited quantities. The Ziyang Pill was not released, but the Purple Qi Talisman could be exchanged.

He once went to the War Merit Hall to inquire. The Purple Qi Talisman ranged from the 600th year to the 1800th year, and the exchange prices were also different. With the contribution he had accumulated in the past few years, he could exchange one thousand The eight-hundred-year-old top-grade Purple Qi Talisman can still do it.

Just as he was about to leave the mission hall, a person suddenly walked in at the door. It was Zheng Yun, the master of the Talisman Hall and a fifth-level low-level Talisman Maker with fake infant cultivation.

"I've met the palace master."

As soon as he appeared in the hall, all the monks around him stopped what they were doing and bowed.

Zheng Yun glanced around the hall and found that there were many Talisman Makers. He coughed twice and said loudly:
"Ahem, since everyone is here, I won't notify you one by one.

I just received an order from the sect to launch a large-scale operation against the demon clan. All departments in Yuebo Fortress must send a corresponding number of monks to participate.

Our Talisman Palace also showed off ten spots, including one Golden Pill cultivator, two Zifu cultivators, and seven Foundation Establishment cultivators.

You can consider whether there is anyone who is willing to fight on the frontal battlefield. If so, please tell me directly and I will report it.

By the way, the candidate for the Golden Core cultivator has been decided, that is Junior Brother Liang Kunliang. You can fight for the remaining Zifu and Foundation Establishment quotas. "

As soon as Zheng Yun finished speaking, everyone fell into thinking. To be honest, everyone did not expect that one day they and others would also go to the battlefield, and they were completely unprepared.

"Palace Master, will the War Palace participate in this operation?"

Xu Zhiyu saluted and asked as if he had thought of something.

"Nonsense, the War Palace must participate. Not only must they participate, but they will also be the main force this time. What? Xiaoyou Xu, are you willing to go to the front line to slay demons?"

Zheng Yun was very happy when he heard someone answer the call. He was afraid that his subordinates would all be greedy for life and afraid of death. In the end, he would have to break up and designate the monks to go. He didn't want to do that. It would be best if someone took the initiative.

"Palace Master, let me think about it again!"

"Okay, then you have to think about it quickly. The boss is very urgent this time and the list will be submitted within three days."

"Yes, Hall Master."

After finishing speaking, Xu Zhiyu walked out of the mission hall and headed towards the battle hall.

When he came here, he used two third-level spiritual talismans to communicate with the guard stationed here. The other party happily went to the Xu clan to report the news for him. In this way, he waited at the entrance of the war palace for about three quarters of an hour before he saw Xu Zhikai, who had arrived late.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, if you have anything to say, hurry up and say it. You only have a quarter of an hour."

"Thank you, fellow Taoist."

When the communication monk left, Xu Zhiyu asked directly:

"Zhikai, there will be a big operation in the next few days. Have you heard about it?"

When Xu Zhikai heard this, he was obviously stunned, and then replied with great admiration:

"Brother Nineteen, you are really well-informed about this news. Even I just received the news, and you already know it."

It's no wonder he is like this. It turns out that as the main force in dealing with monsters, the War Palace is the most knowledgeable in knowing the trends of the war or the information about the start of the war.

"Does that mean it's true? Are all the clansmen going to the battlefield this time?"

"That's right, all clan members are included in the action this time."

After hearing this answer, Xu Zhiyu thought it was true, and then looked around, feeling unsafe, so he did not speak, but said via voice:
"Zhikai, in the past few years, the tribe has experienced no less than a dozen battles, large and small. How have the talismans I gave you been used up?"

"Brother Nineteen, I don't know about others. I have used all the Nine Heaven Transformation Talisman and Imitation Demon Talisman you gave me. I have even used the talisman four times. The power it will inspire next time, I can only barely reach the level of a monk on the first level of Zi Mansion to strike with all my strength."

After hearing this, Xu Zhiyu lowered his head and pondered for a while. He estimated that the situation of other tribesmen should be similar.

Therefore, he took out more than eighty spiritual talismans from the storage ring and ordered Xu Zhikai:
"These are the Nine Heaven Transformation Thunder Talisman and the Imitation Demon Talisman. Take it back and distribute it to the clansmen. Remember to tell them to pay attention to safety on the battlefield.

There is one more thing I want to tell you. I am also planning to sign up for this operation. I will come to you when I get to the battlefield. "

"Brother Nineteen, aren't you drawing spiritual talismans in the Talisman Hall? Do you also need to go to the front line?"

"I fought for it myself. I want to see the front line. And I think this operation is a bit unusual. There may be a war. I'm not worried if you go alone, so let's go together!"

"But."

"No, I've made up my mind. I'll give you another task. Go collect the talismans from the clansmen. I'll take them to the War Merit Hall and exchange your contribution points for some new ones.

In the past few years, I have been working behind the scenes to make talismans, but I have accumulated a lot of contribution points. "

As soon as these words came out, Xu Zhikai, a monk who was over a hundred years old, was so moved that he almost shed tears. He choked and said:
"My brothers and nephews, thank you, Brother Nineteen."

"Okay, how old are you? Go and get it. I'll wait here for you to come back."

Xu Zhiyu urged as he punched his clan brother with a smile.

After getting the talismans used by his clansmen, he returned directly to the Talisman Hall.

In the blink of an eye, it was already seven days later.

The square in Yuebo Fortress was packed with people at the moment.

There are thirty thousand monks gathered here, and they are now boarding the deck of the large flying boat in an orderly manner.

The grades of these combat flying boats are very important. The lowest grade ones are above the fourth grade. Their speed is much faster than ordinary flying magic weapons. Of course, the price is not comparable to that of ordinary flying magic weapons.

Although I don’t know the specific difference, there is no problem if it is two or three times more expensive.

After boarding the battle flying boat, Xu Zhiyu and the other monks from the Fu Palace entered different cabins under the arrangements of the disciples of the Lingxiao Sect.

Because they were led by a Jindan monk, they were fortunate enough to be placed in a cabin that was quite large.

Although there are independent compartments on the battle flying boat, there are not many of them. Golden elixir monks are not qualified to live in a compartment alone, so they can only sit in a large cabin with other monks.

Of course they were not the only ones in the entire cabin. There were nearly a hundred people sitting cross-legged here. Xu Zhiyu looked around and found that he didn't recognize anyone. After so many people entered the cabin, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was almost eerily quiet.

But this is easy to understand. They are about to face a life-and-death battle. They must keep themselves in the best condition in order to have a little more chance of survival in the cruel battle that follows.

Xu Zhiyu also sat quietly, but his eyes kept flickering, obviously thinking about something.

And just next to his cabin on the upper level, the Xu family members were also gathered together at this moment, discussing something.

"I owe Uncle Nineteen a huge favor this time. In addition to giving us some more talismans he drew, he also paid for all our talismans to be replaced with new ones. I really don't know what to say. !”

Xu Jicai, the successor, conveyed the message to the clan members and was very emotional.

"Who says it's not the case? If it weren't for the talisman that Uncle Nineteen gave me last time, I might have died countless times. I originally thought I could repay him if I had the chance, but I didn't expect it to happen again this time. I owe such a huge debt, how can I repay it?”

After hearing the conversation between his clan nephews, Xu Zhikai spoke.

"The reason why your Uncle Nineteen gave us so many self-defense treasures is because we are a family and he doesn't want us to be in danger.

So you work hard to improve your cultivation, grow into the backbone of the family as soon as possible, and help your nineteenth uncle share the pressure of family development. This is the best reward for him. "

These words attracted a burst of agreement from everyone, and then everyone calmed down to meditate and prepare for the upcoming battle. Everyone understood that since such a large battle was set up, there would definitely be a battle between the human and monster.

The combat flying boat flew like this for three full days. At this speed, Xu Zhiyu estimated that they should have entered the interior of the Hengduan Mountains at this moment.

"Could we launch an attack on the monster's lair? If that's the case, it would be exciting!"

It was like this until three full days passed, and the speed of the flying boat suddenly slowed down.

In the cabin, Xu Zhiyu opened his eyes, looked at each other with the monks in the Fu Hall around him, and nodded to each other as a greeting.

The same idea suddenly appeared in my mind.

The battlefield has arrived. (End of chapter)
