Chongming Xianzong

Chapter 282 Opening

"Senior Brother Duan, are we just going to stand there and watch? Why don't you go and ask?" Mingzhe looked at the battle that was in full swing in the distance and felt a little anxious.

Duan Anle just closed his eyes and kept breathing, without responding.

Pei Que looked at Mingzhe with amusement, then turned to look at his uncle who was standing beside Nanny Sun, and thought to himself, "Junior Brother Ming is really calculating. He is afraid of being scolded by his uncle, but he instigates Second Senior Brother to ask."

In the past one or two years, he and Mingzhe have gradually taken over the affairs of the Chongming Caravan from Duan Anle.

After spending so much time together, the relationship between the two naturally became deeper than before.

Pei Que was about to persuade him, but Jin Shilun on the side interrupted and said, "Don't worry, Junior Brother Ming. This is just a test, and we are not needed. When the time comes to make a final decision, we, the disciples of Chongming, will certainly not fall behind."

Mingzhe thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he suppressed his impatience.

This conversation between the few people was somewhat strange to the vassal monks of the Lu and Kuai families.

This is a battlefield of thousands of cultivators, a melee of foundation-building battles. Ordinary people don't even have time to hide. They should be happy to be able to hide behind the formation like them because of the care of Master Kang.

Who would have thought that there was such a young master in the Chongming Sect, who seemed eager to get close to him.

Lu Xun, the head of the Lu family, has been with Mingzhe for quite some time and naturally knows the latter's temperament.

He was used to it and just sighed that a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. Then he looked back and glanced at the younger generations in his family one by one with a somewhat pity look, with mixed feelings in his heart.

With the support of Emperor Chongming, the Lu family has indeed gained a lot of benefits over the years.

But this may not be all good. If they were not so closely tied to the Chongming Sect, the younger generations of the Lu family would not have had to come here this time.

Over the years, the Lu family has relied on recruiting independent cultivators as sons-in-law and hiring retainers to have nearly twenty Qi-cultivating cultivators.

But in this battle, except for the three outstanding disciples, all the others were present. Even Lu Yunniang, a member of the family who controlled the lifeline of the Lu family's wealth, was not spared.

In terms of the proportion of people, it is much higher than that of Chongmingzong.

This time, the relatively pure production-oriented cultivators like Zhou Yixiu and He Wanying were not appointed by Sect Master Kang, and they all followed the External Affairs Elder Ye Zhengwen to guard the sect.

We can't blame the Chongming Sect for favoring some over others. This logic is applicable everywhere. The Lu family members have received benefits from the Chongming Sect, so they will naturally serve him wholeheartedly. This deal can't be fairer.

Lu Yunniang was more insightful than Lu Xun. Over the years, she relied on the food that Lu Xun earned from the Chongming caravan. Before she was fifty years old, she had already become an eighth-level Qi training cultivator. Her cultivation level was much higher than that of Lu Xun, the head of the family.

It is rare to achieve this with the qualifications of mixed spiritual roots.

Speaking of which, Wuyan from the Lu family, who had been painstakingly promoted by Lu Xun for a long time but had difficulty getting married, has become the person in the Lu family with the greatest potential to establish a Taoist foundation in the past hundred years.

Because of this, Lu Xun was quite unhappy about Lu Yunniang being recruited by Chongming Sect to join the war.

After all, this is a rare foundation-building seed in his family, and it is difficult to keep it.

However, Lu Xun shifted his gaze slightly to the head of the Kang family, who was holding the Mo Yuan flag and leading hundreds of cultivators in an endless battle with the Lin family to build their foundation. He did not dare to express even the slightest opinion.

Lu Xun had the honor of meeting the current opponent of the Kangda Sect leader, the foundation-building cultivator of the Changyunlin family, many years ago.

Although his cultivation was not high and he was still in the initial stage of foundation building, he had been doing this for a long time, much earlier than Lin Kunxue, the head of the Lin family. Lu Xun had heard about this Lin family foundation builder who had hunted two second-level cloud-winged leopards from the Jackdaw Mountains alone a few years ago.

But today, when Lu Xun saw him again after many years, this Lin family foundation-building master looked in a state of embarrassment. His robes were shattered by Kang Dabao's pair of spiritual eyes, and his usual spiritual weapon was also broken, which made him look like a complete waste of his troops.

At this moment, a scene that appeared in the field made Lu Xun's face change drastically and he exclaimed in surprise.

----

The Lin family's foundation-building warrior who was fighting against the head of Kang family was a man with a high nose, deep eyes, a yellow beard, and a face full of flesh, and he did not look like a good person.

But at this moment, he was beaten to the point of losing his temper by the mysterious light in the eyes of the head of Kangda. He was wearing ragged robes, looking like a street beggar, without any trace of the demeanor of an immortal.

The man with yellow beard had no time to care about these things at this moment. The fat man opposite him had profound attainments in pupil technique. From what he saw, even many people in Yunjiao State who were famous for pupil technique and had been building their foundation for many years were far inferior to him.

In order to save his life from this terrifying pupil technique, the yellow-bearded man even used up several second-grade low-grade defensive talismans that he had saved for a long time.

Even so, we still have to resort to various means to barely get by.

In the eyes of this yellow-bearded man, although his own patriarch Lin Kunxue also suffered a lot from the flying sword of Jiang Qing of Chongming Sect and the thunder tiger puppet of Mo Wen, he was still far less dangerous than himself.

"I've never heard of such a capable fighter in Chongming Sect before. I really picked the wrong opponent!"

As the yellow-bearded man's last second-grade inferior defensive talisman was easily shattered by Kang Dabao's golden eyes, the former was horrified and finally lost all confidence in dealing with Master Kang alone.

At his command, a team of soldiers from the Lin family, who were originally fighting against the Chongming coalition led by Yuan Jin and had the upper hand, rushed to the yellow-bearded man to help.

The action of the yellow-bearded man was not beyond the expectations of Sect Leader Kang. The Lin family's brocade-clothed foundation-building cultivator who had died at the hands of the Chongming Sect previously had also made a move to ask the Qi-training disciples to return for help.

However, if the yellow-bearded man thought that he could take a break from Kang Dabao by relying on the thirty or forty Qi-training disciples who had rushed back, he was making a wrong calculation.

Kang Dabao didn't even look at the thirty or forty Lin family members who were forming a formation to practice Qi. He just shook his sleeves and a large cloud of silver insects flew out from the sleeves of Master Kang.

"Lionworms! There are so many of them!!" The sound was quite loud, and even the clones of the Zhenling Sect's foundation-building masters who were familiar with this cast a glance over.

Lu Yunniang, who had been keeping her eyes fixed on Kang Dabao, had a glittering look in her eyes: "When I met Kang Dabao a few years ago, I felt that he must have tamed a large number of spiritual insects.

At that time he still argued that it did not happen. But when I saw him today, I realized that what I had predicted was absolutely correct.

But I never thought that he could tame this lion insect so well. After this battle, I should learn from him and upgrade my spirit bee to the first-class upper grade as soon as possible."

The Lin family's Qi cultivators who were summoned by the yellow-bearded man were not as surprised as Lu Yunniang. These lion insects were not simple, and each one was a top-grade first-class one.

There is no need to worry about a single one, but Master Kang released nearly six hundred of them!

The various colors of mysterious light emitted by the defensive instruments of the first few Lin family monks only lasted for a few moments before being easily dispersed by the swarm of lion insects.

These ugly and terrifying insects have sharp mouthparts, but they can even eat high-level spiritual objects such as Yingyue Stone Slabs and Xingfrost Soil as snacks.

How could those Lin family Qigong masters wearing thin immortal clothes resist? In just half a cup of tea, nearly half of the thirty or forty Qigong masters were killed by the lion insect swarm.

It’s not that the yellow-bearded monk didn’t want to go to the rescue, but even though his reinforcements were suppressed by the swarm of lion-insects and suffered heavy casualties, Kang Dabao in front of them was still able to coordinate the Mo Yuan Flag and the Golden Eyes of Breaking Delusion perfectly.

Several times, the terrifying golden light almost hit the yellow-bearded man who had lost the protection of his immortal clothes and had no second-level defensive spiritual weapon.

"Who is this Kang? People say he has a close relationship with Hei Lu, but he is a rare pure Taoist who treats swords with sincerity. He doesn't look like someone who can teach Kang Dabao this skill. It must be the Fei family?!

This horse bone is worth it, his family is willing to spend the money, if I had known there would be such a benefit, I should have gone when the state court attacked Wuxiangmen!"

Just as the yellow-bearded man had this thought, Kang Dabao on the opposite side gave up his pupil technique, holding the Mo Yuan flag, and rushed into the middle of the Lin family monks who were being suppressed by the lion insect swarm.

After easily killing four or five people, Sect Leader Kang walked out calmly, holding a battle flag that was soaked in blood, and rushed towards the yellow-bearded man with bloodshot eyes.

The yellow-bearded man saw that most of the fellow tribesmen he had transferred here had become food for the insect swarm; he also saw that the Lin family soldiers, who had originally had the upper hand, were gradually unable to suppress the Chongming coalition led by Yuan Jin, the ape demon, because of their reduced numbers; in addition, Kang Dabao was ruthless and had no intention of letting him go.

In this critical situation, the yellow-bearded man finally made up his mind and took out a pill with a strange taste and bright colors and chewed it. The head of Kang Da didn't know what the yellow-bearded man was going to do, but he knew that he had to pierce his head as soon as possible.

As for Jiang Qing, although he and Mo Wen made it difficult for Lin Kunxue to move, the latter had been building his foundation for many years, and Kang Dabao was afraid that something might happen and cause more trouble.

The Lin family is much weaker than he thought, so it would be better to kill the two Foundation Establishment cultivators in their family as soon as possible.

The Mo Yuan flag in his hand, made from the skin of a second-grade, top-grade spiritual beast, the mountain-tusk boar, was glowing with mysterious light, which mixed with the blood energy around it, making it look quite strange.

The eleven layers of secret spiritual patterns on the flagpole shone brightly, so brightly that even Sect Leader Kang, who was holding it tightly in his hands, felt his palms burning.

The flagpole head, made of two second-grade spiritual minerals, Fenghan Iron and Glass Steel, was extremely sharp and easily pierced into pieces the thirteen first-grade top-grade defensive talismans and two top-grade defensive magic weapons that were lying on the yellow-bearded man's body.

The light of the broken talismans and the fragments of the magic weapons did not disperse too far, as they were all obliterated by the evil wind brought by the Mo Yuan flag.

Even the last means of self-defense were broken. After chewing the pill, the yellow-bearded man showed a bitter smile on his face, thinking that he had made the right decision!
Facing the Mo Yuanqi of the head of Kangda, he just moved a few steps, took a deep breath, and puffed up his chest as high as a hill.

Not until the sharp will attached to the top of the flagpole had opened a tiny hole between the yellow-bearded man's eyebrows did the latter suddenly open his mouth, and a chaotic and violent soap-colored flame gushed out of his mouth.

The fireworks were very disorderly, and the evil wind brought by the Mo Yuan flag could not be slowed down at all. As soon as the pole head touched it, Kang Dabao felt a pain in his palm. After loosening and tightening it to test, he felt that the flesh on his palm had been stuck to the flagpole.

This startled him, and when he looked down, he saw that the prohibition engraved on the flag was in danger of collapsing.

The flagpole was burned red all over, and even one of the eleventh-level spiritual patterns engraved on it was refined. "What a fierce fire!"

Kang Dabao used his golden eyes to break illusions and was able to barely disperse the soap-colored flames that were spraying towards him.

Moreover, the falling fireworks could actually land on his shoulder when he was least prepared, and burn a small hole in the cloud shoulder cloak that was carefully selected by the headmaster's wife before he went out.

However, while Master Kang was shocked, he saw that the yellow-bearded man who had just made him so embarrassed was also in a bad situation.

I saw that the wisp of yellow beard that originally grew on his chin had been burned away by the flames. Not only that, his entire face was covered with large blisters caused by the violent flames.

There were many places on his face that looked cooked. Master Kang even felt that even the yellow-bearded man's narrow eyes seemed to be blinded by the fireworks.

The yellow-bearded man's condition was actually much worse than Kang Dabao had imagined. After taking the elixir and spitting fire, he suffered more than just the burnt beard, scalded face, and blindness.

This is because the flames were not stored in his dantian but came out from his stomach after he took the pill.

In other words, the yellow-bearded man's stomach was like a pool of boiling molten iron, and his internal organs were all burned by the flames. Not to mention how painful it was, if it lasted for a long time, his life might be in danger!

It is true that there are advantages to using external things, but the disadvantages are also prominent.

When the yellow-bearded man used the soap-colored flames to force back Master Kang, his mouth and tongue were almost refined by the flames, and his white teeth were roasted into mud.

After enduring such torture, he could only swallow the pain and remain silent, for fear that his opponent would find out.

But this is just acting after all.

Even though the yellow-bearded man had superb acting skills, he was still seen through by Kang Dabao, who was even more proficient in pupil techniques, and he raised his flag and stabbed again.

The yellow-bearded man showed no joy or sadness on his face, and he ignored the murderous intention of Master Kang. He used his spiritual sense to find the direction and blew air.

"Not good!" Kang Dabao's face was filled with shock, but when he saw the billowing flames sweeping towards the swarm of lion-insects that were chasing and feasting on the last few Lin family monks, he immediately threw out the big banner in his hand, trying to rescue them.

Unexpectedly, he was still a step too slow. The soapy flames first rescued several Lin family members who were in the mouths of the insects, and then enveloped all the more than 500 lion insects of Sect Leader Kang.

"Huh?!" What happened next surprised both opponents at the same time. Most of the lionworms with silver armor on their backs were safe and sound among the fireworks.

Only a very small number of weak ones in the lion insect group were burned into a ball by the fireworks from the outside to the inside, and only a few of them fell down sparsely.

Even Kang Dabao didn't know that his spiritual insects had such abilities. He was delighted. If he had known earlier, he would have used the swarm of insects as a shield. He would have chopped off the head of the yellow-bearded man long ago!

The head of the Kang family was overjoyed, but the man with the yellow beard was as sad as if he had lost his parents. At this time, his intestines had been burned by the second flame he spat out, and seeing that his plan to destroy the lion insect group had failed, he still vomited another one regardless of his life.

This time, the yellow-bearded man's target was Yuan Jin and others who were in a fierce battle with the Lin family soldiers. Kang Dabao naturally couldn't help but rescue them, so he struck while the iron was hot. The lion insects gathered together and squeezed into the size of a small shield, protecting Yuan Jin and others who were facing the fireworks.

But even so, the fireworks overflowing from the lion insect shield still caused the Chongming coalition forces to suffer heavy losses.

A large number of puppets carefully made by the disciples of Qiaogong Castle were burned into molten iron, and a few slow patrolmen were directly refined into gas, without even a speck of dust left.

Only the guards of Qinghan Courtyard, who had seen more and acted faster, suffered no casualties.

However, most of the monks in the Chongming coalition army suffered varying degrees of damage. The damage caused by the yellow-bearded man's fireworks alone was not much worse than the results achieved by the Lin family soldiers after fighting for such a long time.

However, his family gained an advantage but did not pursue the victory. Instead, they returned to the formation under the anxious and unclear commands of the yellow-bearded man.

Chen Ye, who was in charge of the overall situation on the Changning Sect side, did not stop it. Instead, he pulled out a reserve team from the formation to provide support.

It was obvious that the man with yellow beard was also unable to fight. After he spit out three streams of flames, even his mouth and tongue, which had been refined with secret techniques and spiritual water, were burned to ashes. If he spit out more flames, his entire body would probably be burned to a pile of charcoal.

Kang Dabao would of course not let him go, and Chen Ye wanted to rescue him, but Yin Shangong, who had been guarding him, appeared with a jade axe in his hand.

In the entire Yunjiao Province, no one would really regard Shan Gong as an ordinary Qigong practitioner, not to mention that Chen Ye had seen Shan Gong's abilities and learned from him in the past! So he dared not be careless at all.

Therefore, even though the yellow-bearded man fought with all his heart and energy until he was exhausted, his own side really couldn't spare anyone to rescue him, which was really regrettable.

This was something that the Changning Sect's cultivators should feel sad about, but Kang Dabao would not show any sympathy. His face was as gloomy as water, and with a swift movement of the Spirit Technique in his hand, the sharp and unstoppable tip of the Mo Yuan flagpole finally pierced through the yellow-bearded man's internal organs.

"Yun Dao!!!"

As soon as its belly was cut open, thick and dry blood flowed out and dripped onto the scorched earth, and a foul-smelling smoke was burned out.

At the beginning of the battle, neither side had ever thought that among all the foundation-building cultivators present, the first to take action and kill someone of the same level would be the fat and white leader of the Chongming Sect.

Lin Kunxue, who was fighting fiercely with Jiang Qing and Mo Wen, saw his fellow tribesmen dead. He shouted wildly, his eyes turned red and blood flowed continuously.

“After this, if there is a future, I will be the only one left in the Lin family who has established his foundation!”

Lin Kunxue was filled with resentment. He really couldn't understand how it was possible that the Changyun Lin family, which had been thriving in Yunjiao Province with the help of the Qingyun League a few years ago, had fallen into such a state in just a few years?
"Liang Yi Sect! Yun Jiaozhou Court! Birds of a feather!"

After narrowly dodging a ray of sword from Jiang Qing and then using his spiritual armor to absorb a ray of white lightning from Mo Wen's Thunder Tiger puppet, Lin Kunxue no longer dared to fight and turned his back to leave.

At this moment, he thought clearly that if he died again, none of the hundreds of people in the Lin family who were practicing Qigong and tens of thousands of clansmen here would have a good ending!
Jiang Qingmo naturally wanted to stop them when he heard this, but at this moment, there was a loud noise behind the crowd and something unexpected happened again.
