Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 206 The Calamity of the Longevity Sect

Zhou Qing has high expectations for the Chinese Football Association.

This association has the potential to foster a sectarian alliance, at which point the association president will wield significant influence over that alliance.

Of course, the association is far from reaching that point yet, but as the relationships between the various sects become increasingly close, especially due to the association's existence, the sects will have more and more business dealings.
This close connection of interests will naturally turn several sects into allies.

The association is still in its infancy and needs his guidance and support.

If he is absent from the first crisis encountered by the association's members after its establishment, it will inevitably have an adverse impact on the association's development.

The principle is actually very simple: if you want your subordinates to respect you, you must be willing to step in and take responsibility when they encounter trouble.

Therefore, he had no choice but to visit the Longevity Sect.

Of course, he wouldn't act rashly.

"When do we leave?"

Qingyuan asked.

Zhou Qing said, "You wait for me at home first. I will go to discuss with my senior master and the sect leader before making a decision."

He sent Qingyuan home and, disregarding the late hour, hurried toward Qingyun Mountain.

In such an emergency, there's obviously no time to worry about everyday etiquette.

Zhou Qing first went to the Sutra Repository to find Mu Zhuosha.

"You've come about the Longevity Sect?"

Mu Zhuosha has already received the news.

Zhou Qing nodded and said, "The Qingyun Sect should send someone to take a look. I also plan to go there myself."

Mu Zhuosha said, "I received the news during the day and discussed it with the sect leader and Xu Jingfeng. I had decided to go there in person and planned to tell you when you returned, but you came first."

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "I'm relieved to have my senior brother traveling with me. Let's not delay, shall we set off immediately?"

Mu Zhuosha nodded.

Zhou Qing first went to Ziyun Mountain to pick up Qingyuan. The two of them boarded Mu Zhuosha's flying sword, and then Mu Zhuosha rode the sword straight into the sky.

To ensure sufficient spiritual energy within her body, Mu Zhuosha maintained her flying sword speed at over 10,000 li per day. After flying like this for three or four days, the three of them arrived at a place more than 300 li away from the Changsheng Sect.

Mu Zhuosha hovered her flying sword in mid-air, looking towards the direction of the Longevity Sect, her expression somewhat solemn.

Although they were 300 miles apart, the three of them could clearly see the terrifying scene at the Changsheng Sect's location, which looked like the end of the world.

The sky above the Longevity Sect was covered by thick thunderclouds, with wild lightning bolts flying through the air and the rumbling thunder shaking the earth.

The spiritual energy in the vicinity was also abnormally disordered.

"No wonder the long-distance communication system didn't respond."

Zhou Qing shook his head helplessly.

In such a harsh environment, no signal can penetrate.

"These thunderclouds did not form naturally."

"Mu Zhuosha said."

Zhou Qing nodded in agreement.

It's unlikely that naturally formed thunderclouds would linger for so long.

"When are we going there?"

Qingyuan asked impatiently.

Zhou Qing said, "Don't rush. The situation is still unclear. We'd better go to the Longevity Market to find out more."

Mu Zhuosha also agreed with his suggestion.

She slowed the speed of her flying sword and slowly flew towards the Longevity Market. After flying another two hundred miles, she stopped the flying sword again.

The three discovered that the area ahead was shrouded in thick black fog, and they could not see anything in front of them.

“Strange, we didn’t see these black mists when we were in the distance.”

"Mu Zhuosha said."

"of course."

Zhou Qing said, "This is an illusion created by the formation; its effect cannot reach further."

He sensed complex and unnatural fluctuations of spiritual energy emanating from the black mist, which could only be the effect of an array.

A glint flashed in Mu Zhuosha's eyes as she said, "So, someone has used a large formation to surround the entire Changsheng Sect, along with the Changsheng Market. What are they planning to do?"

Zhou Qing said, "I don't know, but it's definitely not a good thing."

The situation of the Longevity Sect was more critical than he had expected. The forces that could besiege the entire Longevity Sect were not to be underestimated. At the very least, they should have at least two Golden Core cultivators.

Zhou Qing said, "The situation of the Longevity Sect is unclear and fraught with danger. Should we return, Uncle-Master?"

Mu Zhuosha sneered, "I came to check on the situation of the Longevity Sect, but I turned back after only a hundred miles outside the sect. Wouldn't that make me a laughing stock? Even if it's hell ahead, I'll still go for it."

"As for you, a mere Qi Refining cultivator, no one will laugh at you if you leave."

Zhou Qing laughed and said, "You don't need to provoke me. Qingmu Zhenren and I are close friends despite our age difference, Qingyuan is also a good friend of mine, and the Changsheng Sect is a member of the Array Association."

"Whether for public or private reasons, I should not back down."

Mu Zhuosha smiled and said, "Master Qingmu was right to entrust this silly woman to you. In that case, let's go in."

"Slow down."

Zhou Qing said helplessly, "Not backing down doesn't mean we have to be reckless."

"The enemy has set up a well-prepared formation and is on high alert. Our vision is blurred, and we can't see the situation clearly. The rhythm is on the enemy's side. This kind of battle is not easy to fight."

"We should let the enemy get into our rhythm."

Mu Zhuosha smiled and said, "I'm not good at using my brain, so I'll just listen to you. Just tell me what to do."

Zhou Qing thought for a moment and said, "The enemy has set up an array to trap the Longevity Sect, so naturally they are always on guard against outsiders breaking in."

"I think they must have someone on lookout outside. Please make some noise to attract the attention of the people inside. When they come out to check, we can grab a few people and ask them what happened."

Mu Zhuosha smiled and said, "Making a commotion is not difficult. I'm just afraid they'll use this black mist as a barrier and won't come out. Are you confident you can catch the people inside the black mist?"

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a way."

Mu Zhuosha said, "Alright, you all stay here and don't move. I'll go make some noise."

As she spoke, she took the initiative to leave the flying sword and flew into the air until she was far away from Li Zhouqing and Qingyuan, at which point she suddenly closed the spell to conceal her aura.

Zhou Qing was curious about how Mu Zhuosha planned to make a commotion, so he kept a close eye on her as she flew into the air.

Then he saw that Mu Zhuosha suddenly exuded a powerful aura.

She unleashed her full spiritual pressure, causing the surrounding spiritual energy to surge and burst forth with dazzling light.

Centered on Mu Zhuosha, the area, nearly ten zhang in circumference, seemed to transform into a large star, followed by a beam of light shooting straight into the sky from the star.

The thunderclouds overhead were blasted apart by the beam of light, creating a hole. Around the hole, dark clouds churned and formed a vortex, filled with countless bolts of lightning.

This is quite a commotion.

Zhou Qing admired it in his heart, and then his mind stirred slightly as he turned his attention to a certain spot in the black mist.

He couldn't see what was happening over there, but in his Heavenly Net Sensing, he sensed several powerful cultivators rushing over from the direction of the Longevity Sect.

The leader possessed extremely powerful spiritual pressure, no weaker than Mu Zhuosha, and the others were also powerful cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage.
