I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 373 The troops are approaching the city
“You can’t. You are now the greatest hope of my Qingyuan Sect. If something happens to you, can we still hope that Xiao Xuan and the others can enter the Nascent Soul realm in the short term?” Yue Huang flatly denied it after hearing this.

"That's right, Senior Brother Xiao, you can't go. If anyone is going to go down the mountain, it should be me, the Lord of the Guardian Hall." Xing Zhan said.

“At this level of the Jindan realm, I think there are not many people in the Great Xuan Realm who can keep me. Even if a Yuanying cultivator disregards his status and attacks me, he will have to pay a price to keep me. I may even get away if I’m not careful.

Once I escape and it is confirmed that a Nascent Soul cultivator secretly attacked the Jindan elder of my Qingyuan Sect for no reason, then Xuantian Pavilion will no longer have any reason to ignore it. Otherwise, how can it command the Great Xuan Realm?
But if you go down the mountain, it's not because I look down on you. If a Yuanying cultivator attacks, you will have no hope of escaping." Xiao Hongyi said.

"In fact, I am the one who should go down the mountain. I don't have many years left in my old body. If something happens, I will just live a few years less. But I am not only the head of the sect, but I also have to preside over the mountain protection formation of Qingyuan Mountain in order to exert its maximum power.

But Junior Brother Xiao is now the hope for the resurgence of our Qingyuan Sect, and he must not be allowed to fail. So I think we should let Junior Brother Xing take a few more Jindan elders down the mountain.

As long as it's not a Nascent Soul cultivator who takes action personally, with Junior Brother Xing's fighting power and the help of several Golden Core Elders, there shouldn't be any problem. "Yue Huang said.

"Senior Brother..." Xiao Hongyi frowned.

"It's settled now." Yue Huang interrupted without any doubt.

Soon, the Lord of the Guardian Hall, Xing Zhan, personally led four Jindan elders and eight fake dan guardians down the mountain to secretly guard and inspect Qingyuan Sect's assets in Daliang State.

When Xing Zhan came down the mountain, he found that the situation of Qingyuan Sect in Daliang State was much more miserable and worse than he had imagined.

The disciples of Xingyue Sect and Changhe Sect, who once stood on equal footing with Qingyuan Sect, actually suppressed the disciples of Qingyuan Sect unscrupulously, and the disciples of Qingyuan Sect could only swallow their anger in front of these two sects, as if they had become the children of other disciples of Daliang State who were affiliated with their forces.

Even those forces that are affiliated with the disciples of Xingyue Sect and Changhe Sect can show off their power in front of Qingyuan Sect's disciples by relying on their backing.

Some local forces secretly took advantage of the situation to rob some of Qingyuanmen's industries.

In addition, the number of people from the Black Evil Hall and the Seven Killing Sect active near the Qingyuan Sect’s industry has obviously increased.

The children of the Qi family frequently make high-profile appearances in the State of Daliang.

In Qingyuan Sect, Xingzhan is the main force of conquest, and the evil spirit is heavy.

The original intention of this trip down the mountain was to obey the imperial decree and put an end to the arrogance of those people. Now, seeing that the situation of the Qingyuan Sect disciples at the foot of the mountain was much more miserable than he had imagined, he suddenly became murderous and began to conquer and kill on a large scale.

Soon, a bloody storm broke out in Daliang State.

Many local forces were destroyed, and some people from the Black Evil Palace and the Seven Killing Sect who were active in Daliang State were also killed.

The effect of this killing was immediate.

The local forces that were originally ready to take advantage of the situation suddenly became silent and gave up their greedy thoughts.

The disciples of Changhe Sect and Xingyue Sect also restrained themselves a lot.

The Qingyuan Sect sent Xing Zhan down the mountain, and they were full of murderous intent. Unless the Nascent Soul Grand Elders of the Changhe Sect and the Xingyue Sect showed up, it would be hard for anyone to calm the situation.

This immediate effect excited everyone in Qingyuan Sect.

Xing Zhan believes that all forces only bully the weak and fear the strong, and Qingyuan Sect must not give in or show weakness during this special period. Only by being tougher can all forces be fearful and dare not invade Qingyuan Sect again.

This recognition has made Xingzhan’s attitude towards the outside world even tougher.
-
Qi family, Qi Yuanshan.

It was still the hall where the talismans were flashing.

This time, there was another dwarf-like Nascent Soul cultivator in the hall.

However, this Nascent Soul cultivator was dressed in black and sat in the hall. He seemed to have merged into the surrounding world. His aura was so vague that it was difficult for people to sense his presence.

"There's news coming from Daliang State. The Qingyuan Sect couldn't hold back after all, and sent Xing Zhan down the mountain to conquer everywhere." The tall and thin monk stroked his goatee and said with a smug look on his face.

“If we retreat, the various forces will see an opportunity and will become more greedy. They will push their luck and devour all of Qingyuan Sect’s assets in Daliang State. Then Qingyuan Sect will have no choice but to defend Qingyuan Mountain alone, and they will have no choice but to lose patience.

Haha, the Qingyuan Sect lost its patience and sent Xing Zhan down the mountain to establish its authority. It was also our Qi family who provoked the incident and deepened the old hatred. Then we can attack Qingyuan Mountain in a logical and legitimate way." The long-bearded dwarf sitting on the upper seat said with a sinister smile.
-
Time flies.

In a blink of an eye, Xia Daoming has been in the Xuanwu Secret Realm for twenty years.

This year.

A shocking event happened in Daliang State.

The Qi family joined forces with the Black Evil Palace and the Seven Killing Sect. Qi Leyang, the supreme elder of the Qi family, led 55 Jindan monks, more than 100 Jiadan monks, and thousands of foundation-building and Qi-refining monks from the three forces. They suddenly appeared outside Changqing City and demanded that Qingyuan Mountain hand over Xing Zhan, who had killed many of their disciples, as well as several Jindan elders and Jiadan guardians. Qi Leyang even threatened that Yue Huang would personally go to Qiyuan Mountain of the Qi family to burn incense and apologize in front of the spirit platform of his most beloved grandson Qi Shiben who was killed.

Moreover, Qi Leyang threatened that if Qingyuan Sect did not hand over Xing Zhan and others, and if Yue Huang did not personally go to the Qi family to burn incense and apologize, he would lead people to attack Qingyuan Mountain to avenge the dead grandson of his clan.

Qingyuan Palace.

The atmosphere was depressing with a hint of panic.

"How hateful! How hateful! The Qi family actually teamed up with the Black Evil Palace and the Seven Killing Sect. Not only did they bring troops to the city, but they also figured out the sentries we secretly laid outside and blocked all the exits of my Qingyuan Sect.

It seems that the Qi family has been plotting against us since the beginning! What about the Black Evil Palace and the Seven Killing Sect? Everyone knows that they have always been on good terms with the Qi family and only follow the Qi family's lead!
They are just waiting for an excuse that can be put on the table! Qi Shiben? Haha, when did this guy become Qi Leyang's most beloved grandson? "Qiu Dongyan said with a sullen face.

The army was approaching the city, and logically, the Qingyuan Sect should have discovered it long ago.

Because Qingyuan Sect has always had scout disciples stationed outside the mountain gate, any changes in the situation will be reported immediately.

As a result, when the army was about to approach Changqing City, the Qingyuan Sect discovered this matter. All the scouts they had deployed on the periphery had lost contact.

Not only that, the scouts they sent out never returned.

Up to this moment, the top leaders of Qingyuan Sect knew that the Qi family, together with the Black Evil Palace and the Seven Killing Sect, had been plotting against Qingyuan Sect for a long time, and now that the time was finally ripe, they suddenly launched an attack.

"The Qingyuan Sect is weak. Even if we knew that the Qi family had set a trap, we would probably have jumped in. The most hateful ones are the Changhe Sect and the Xingyue Sect. Not only did they not help, they even added insult to injury without informing each other at all beforehand. Aren't they afraid of inviting a wolf into the house and ending up with the same fate as our Qingyuan Sect?" said Kong Shuding, the master of the Weapon Refining Hall, angrily.

“Ever since the old woman from the Qi family became a late Nascent Soul cultivator and took power in Xuantian Pavilion, Changhe Sect has been trying to befriend the Qi family, hoping to use the Qi family’s power to gain supremacy over us and Xingyue Sect.

More than 20 years ago, because of the incident with Yuwen Feng, Elder Fang of the Xingyue Sect lost a Nascent Soul disciple. It is even said that Elder Fang became a laughing stock among the elders of the Xuantian Pavilion because of this. For this reason, Elder Fang was extremely dissatisfied with the Xingyue Sect, and used his power to assign many difficult tasks to the Xingyue Sect.

It is not difficult to imagine that if the Qi family showed goodwill to the Xingyue Sect at this time and promised benefits, the Xingyue Sect would naturally lean over, and why would they be willing to make enemies with the Qi family for our Qingyuan Sect? "Shen Boyin, the head of the Sutra Pavilion, said in a deep voice.

"Qi Leyang, the old beast, has already brought his men to the mountain gate. What's the point of saying all this now? At this point, there are only two options. One is to hand us over to appease the Qi family's anger and give them no excuse to attack our Qingyuan Sect. The second is for us to fight to the death even if it means destroying our entire clan!"

When Xing Zhan said the last sentence, he did not show the determination to fight to the death. Instead, he looked sad and depressed.

"The Qi family clearly wants to swallow up our Qingyuan Sect. We can't escape this disaster by bowing our heads and kneeling. If that's the case, why should we humiliate ourselves and cut off our own wings?" Xiao Hongyi said coldly.

Everyone's heart trembled when they heard this, and their faces changed several times.

“That’s right, now the only way out is to fight! My Qingyuan Sect’s thousands of years of foundation cannot be taken away by them just because they want to! If they want to take it, they have to pay with their lives!” Yue Huang suddenly slapped the armrest and stood up abruptly, his hair and beard standing up, an incomparably powerful and heavy aura bursting out from him.

At this moment, Yue Huang seemed like an unshakable towering mountain.

After saying that, Yue Huang spread out his palm, and a light distorted in his palm, and a dark mark shaped like a mountain appeared in his hand.

This seal is the Cixuan Mountain Seal held by the successive leaders of Qingyuan Mountain.

This magic weapon is not only extremely powerful, but also a seal for mobilizing the power of the Qingyuan Mountain formation.

With this seal in hand, with Yue Huang's cultivation level, as long as he is in Qingyuan Mountain, he can fight against a Nascent Soul cultivator.

“Junior Brother Xiao, Junior Brother Xing, the two of you come with me to meet Old Man Qi. I want to see if he has the guts to really raise an army to attack Qingyuan Mountain!” Yue Huang stepped down from the throne of the headmaster with the Cixuan Mountain Seal in his hand.

"Yes, Master!" Xiao Hongyi and Xing Zhan bowed and followed Yue Huang out of the hall.

When Yue Huang stepped out of the hall, the Lord of Changqing City received an imperial decree and went out of the city to meet Qi Leyang.

Soon Qi Leyang, along with the two guardian hall masters of the Black Evil Hall and the Seven Killings Sect, flew over the sky of Changqing City and arrived at the gate of Qingyuan Mountain.

The three of them had just arrived at the mountain gate when Yue Huang, carrying Cixuan Mountain, slowly rose into the air from the main peak of Qingyuan Mountain, surrounded by Xiao Hongyi and Xing Zhan.

Rays of brilliant light shot up into the sky from the many peaks of Qingyuan Mountain and transformed into a throne of rosy clouds, supporting Yue Huang.

The throne of rosy clouds supported Yue Huang, and it actually showed his huge appearance of holding up the Cixuan Mountain in the sky.

The weather is majestic and cannot be disobeyed.

PS: There will be an additional chapter for the leader Shen Tingxuan before 8 o'clock in the evening.
