Chapter 375 Siege
Ten days later.

All personnel evacuate Changqing City.

There was a thunder on the ground.

The earth is shaking and the mountains are shaking.

The magnificent Changqing City exploded with a loud bang, countless huge rocks shot into the sky, rolling dust waves, and terrifying shock waves rushed in all directions.

Many disciples of the Qi Family, the Black Evil Palace, and the Seven Killing Sect who were below the Jindan realm under Chen Bing City were covered in dirt and in a miserable state by the sudden explosion that destroyed the city. Some of them even had no time to evacuate and were hit by huge rocks or knocked over by the shock wave, resulting in a small wave of casualties.

In a small palace floating on auspicious clouds, Qi Leyang looked at the collapsed Changqing City from afar. The smoke and dust rose into the sky. The skin on his face couldn't help but tremble. He murmured: "Just blow up Changqing City and raze it to the ground. Yue Huang is really willing to do it!"

Qingyuan Mountain.

Yue Huang stood with his hands behind his back, and behind him stood eight Jindan cultivators.

Looking at the great city that Qingyuan Sect had poured so much effort into building, collapsing like that, Yue Huang, the most stingy and money-loving leader, looked calm on the surface, but his heart was twitching with pain.

How many spirit stones will be lost?
However, this move was also a helpless decision.

Although Changqing City is prosperous, it is also the first line of defense of Qingyuanmen.

But that only prevents small-scale attacks.

The enemy is so fierce this time that Changqing City cannot resist it with its defensive capabilities. Instead, many lives will be lost. In this case, it is better to decisively build strong defenses from the beginning, withdraw all personnel back to the mountain gate, and concentrate on defending the mountain gate.

The flying dust gradually dissipated.

The once magnificent city has been razed to the ground.

The three major forces headed by the Qi family flew over the ruins and arrived at the gate of Qingyuan Mountain.

At this time, various colors of light rose up into the sky from the Qingyuan Mountains and condensed into sharp swords. There were seventy-two swords in total, which surrounded and protected the main area of ​​the Qingyuan Mountains.

The sword light bloomed and then gathered into a light curtain, covering the main area of ​​the Qingyuan Mountains.

Seventy-two Earthly Evil Sword Formation!
This is the Qingyuan Sect's protective formation that has been continuously improved over the generations. It uses seventy-two flying swords as the core of the formation and draws on the power of the seventy-two mountain veins to perform its work.

On every mountain where there are Disha swords, there is a Jindan or Jiadan monk in charge.

"I will hold the Cixuanshan Seal to deal with Qi Leyang, and you will deal with the rest. Wherever the pressure of the Earthly Evil Sword is greatest or there is a problem, you will rush to support it. Make sure to repel the enemy and not let any gaps appear in the Earthly Evil Sword formation!" Seeing the sword formation activated, Yue Huang gave instructions to the eight Jindan cultivators behind him with a heavy expression.

In addition to Xing Zhan and other Jindan elders from the Guardian Hall, these eight Jindan cultivators also include Liu Qiaolian, Ji Wenyue, Lan Xue, Lu Ziying and Shao Shiyu.

The Seventy-Two Earthly Evil Sword Formation is practiced once every ten years by the Qingyuan Sect, which will gather some Jindan elders and fake Dan guardians.

This is to prevent the sect protection formation from being unused for a long time and not being aware of problems with the formation. Of course, the person controlling the formation also needs to practice, so that when something really happens they can cooperate well and truly unleash the power of the formation.

After the death of Patriarch Huangfu, Yue Huang knew that there would be a big storm, so he has summoned people for drills almost every year in recent years.

However, although the Seventy-Two Earthly Evil Sword Formation is extremely powerful, it requires seventy-two people to control the formation, and in order to unleash its power, they must have at least the cultivation level of a fake elixir.

The Qingyuan Sect has been on a downward trend over the years, having lost several Jindan cultivators in the past few years. Now that the 72 main formation members have been gathered, there are only a few Jindan cultivators left that can be mobilized.

Fortunately, Liu Qiaolian and others showed up at this time, allowing Yue Huang to have more mobile Jindan monks at hand.

“Disciples will obey the master’s orders!” Everyone responded solemnly, and then stood quietly behind Yue Huang, looking at the movements of the army ahead.

“I heard that the Qingyuan Sect's Seventy-Two Earthly Evil Sword Formation is very powerful, but I wonder if it's just a reputation. Wei Wuxian, why don't you take the friends from the Black Evil Palace to try out its power first.” In the auspicious cloud palace in the sky, Qi Leyang looked at the Qingyuan Mountain surrounded by swords. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said to a young man standing on his left who had eyebrows like knife blades and pupils that flashed blood from time to time.

"Okay, Senior Qi." The young man bowed slightly and quickly left the palace.

Not long after the young man left, more than a dozen Jindan cultivators led hundreds of foundation-building and Qi-refining cultivators and launched an attack on a mountain covered by a light curtain on the side of the main peak of Qingyuan Sect.

Various colored precious lights fell towards the light curtain of the mountain like a dazzling group of meteors.

At this time, not only did that mountain have the Earthly Demon Sword breaking through the air to kill, but the eight nearby mountains also had flashing sword lights, breaking through the air to kill the people from the Black Demon Palace.

There were also Foundation Establishment disciples and Qi Refining disciples from the Qingyuan Sect stationed on the mountain, who released light curtains from their magic weapons to help resist the enemy's attack.

"Dang Dang Dang!"

"Boom boom boom!"

Various precious lights collided with each other, making a deafening sound and bursting into brilliant light.

The Seventy-two Earthly Evil Sword Formation used only nine Earthly Evil Swords, and with the help of some Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining disciples, it firmly blocked the first wave of attacks organized by the Black Evil Hall. "The Seventy-two Earthly Evil Sword Formation is indeed quite impressive. Not only are each Earthly Evil Sword extremely powerful, but they can also be gathered or dispersed. We have not been able to break them apart yet." Qi Leyang stood in the distance and watched carefully, frowning slightly.

"What you said is very true. This formation can be gathered or dispersed, which is really a bit difficult to deal with. In my opinion, I am afraid that we need to mobilize more troops to besiege them separately, so that each Earthly Evil Sword will be unable to take care of itself.

In this way, as long as one of the Earthly Evil Sword Peaks is breached, the Seventy-Two Earthly Evil Sword Formation will be flawed, and it will no longer be able to operate smoothly, and its power will inevitably be greatly weakened. "A woman with a pointed chin who looked particularly cold and mean bowed slightly and said.

"What you said makes sense. The Seventy-Two Earthly Evil Sword Formation requires a Jindan or Jiadan cultivator to be in charge of each mountain. With the current situation of Qingyuan Sect, after gathering the personnel required for this sword formation, there are probably not many Jindan cultivators left who can serve as mobile personnel to rush to the rescue.

If we transfer more troops and spread them out to attack, then if they encounter problems in more places, they will be overwhelmed and it will be only a matter of time before we break through.

However, my Qi family is large and powerful, and there are many industries that need to be guarded. Some Jindan cultivators are in seclusion for cultivation, and some Jindan cultivators have missions at Xuantian Pavilion and cannot get away. The mobilization of 35 Jindan cultivators this time will not affect the normal operation of my Qi family for the time being. If more Jindan cultivators are to be sent, I am afraid there will be an impact.

I don't think there is any urgency in this matter. Let's just attack them every day. This will not only train our troops, but also slowly wear down their fighting spirit and the spirit stones they use to operate the formation. As long as the time is right and we find a flaw, we can break through it in one fell swoop. Anyway, we are overwhelming them now. Qingyuan Sect is already trapped in a jar, and they can't turn the tables." Qi Leyang said with a proud and confident look on his face.

"That's a brilliant idea, senior!" the woman bowed in compliment.
-
In a blink of an eye, a month has passed since the three major forces besieged Qingyuan Mountain.

During this period, the three major forces attacked in turns, while others attacked together.

If they attack in turns, the Seventy-two Earthly Evil Sword Formation will be able to deal with it with ease.

If they were to attack together, the Seventy-Two Earthly Evil Sword Formation would be extremely difficult to deal with. In order to increase the power of the sword formation, they would even have to invest the top-grade spirit stones that were held as strategic reserves into the formation.

However, the three major forces also knew that the sword formation was powerful and it would be difficult to break through Qingyuan Mountain in a short period of time unless they were willing to pay a heavy price in casualties.

Therefore, their all-out attack was not continuous and sustained, which gave Qingyuanmen a chance to catch his breath.

But this situation did not last long.

When the siege reached the second month, an order came from Qi Yuanshan saying that the Qi family had lost a lot of Jindan cultivators in a place of opportunity, resulting in the family's lack of resources for dispatching the Jindan cultivators, and asked Qi Leyang to speed up the progress.

Qi Leyang received the order and issued an order to launch a full-scale and fierce attack on the same day.

The continuous and fierce all-out attack doubled the pressure on the Seventy-Two Earthly Evil Sword Formation.

The people in the formation released their magic weapons and cut through the sword formation light curtain, helping in the battle with all their might.

However, the Seventy-Two Earthly Evil Sword Formation could not withstand such a fierce attack, and crises occurred many times.

The three Jindan monks from the Guardian Hall who had been standing behind Yue Huang and keeping silent finally came out to offer their assistance.

Yue Huang looked around the situation with a serious expression.

Suddenly, Yue Huang's expression changed slightly.

I saw a sword light suddenly burst out from the Dixiong Sword Mountain on the west side. With one sword strike, it actually chopped back the Dixiong Sword.

Without the Dixiong Sword to resist, the other magic weapons and artifacts fell on the light curtain one after another, and the light curtain was shaking violently, showing signs of being blown away.

"Haha! I finally broke through! I'm in the late Golden Core stage!" The owner of the sword light was a bearded man. He chopped off the Earth Sword with one sword and couldn't help laughing.

"Good! Good! Good! A breakthrough through battle, my Qi family has gained another powerful general and a Nascent Soul seed!" In the Xiangyun Palace, Qi Leyang clapped his hands in joy.

"Liu Qiaolian, Ji Wenyue, Lan Xue, the three of you quickly go to Di Xiongfeng to help and stop Qi Shijie!" Yue Huang gave the order without delay.

"Master, he is just a cultivator who has just been promoted to the late Jindan stage. My disciple and Junior Sister Shao will be enough to go. This is a good opportunity for us to take advantage of the fact that his foundation is not stable yet he is in high spirits. He will definitely look down on Junior Sister Shao and me. We will kill him in one fell swoop." Liu Qiaolian stepped forward and bowed. Her originally charming face now revealed the decisiveness and ruthlessness she had when she was traveling in the martial arts world in her early years.

"You and Shao Shiyu? You want to kill them all in one fell swoop?" Yue Huang couldn't help but look stunned.

A late Jindan cultivator, even if he is just a newly promoted late Jindan cultivator, can generally be equivalent to two middle Jindan cultivators.

Yue Huang took into consideration that Liu Qiaolian, Ji Wenyue and Lan Xue were all mid-stage Jindan cultivators who had only broken through a few years ago. Their strength was definitely not comparable to those mid-stage Jindan cultivators who had accumulated and settled in the mid-stage Jindan realm for dozens or even hundreds of years.

Moreover, these three people are the seed disciples of Qingyuan Sect. They are the hope for the future and must not be lost.

Therefore, he mobilized three people to fight at once.

In fact, if he hadn't taken into account the fact that he still had to deal with two Jindan cultivators in an emergency, he would have wanted to send Lu Ziying out as well.

But I never expected that Liu Qiaolian would be so arrogant.

"Master, don't worry. I have just observed this man. While he is getting too proud of himself and his foundation is unstable, I am 50 to 60 percent sure that I can kill him unexpectedly. But if we wait until his foundation is stable, it will be difficult to kill him when he is surrounded by powerful enemies." Liu Qiao Lian said in a deep voice.
