Starting with a daily divination to build an immortal clan

Chapter 73 Hundred Beast Mountain

When Shen Wenxing arrived at Shengxian Pavilion, he was surprised to find that Huang Yunxiao, the county magistrate of Anyang County, was already waiting there.

Upon seeing him, Shen Wenxing quickly cupped his hands in greeting: "Uncle."

Huang Yunxiao nodded, his expression somewhat grave, and said, "Urgent military intelligence has arrived from the border. The barbarians have amassed an army of 100,000 at the border of Baima County, and their intentions are unclear."

"Through the captured prisoners and scouts, we learned that this army of 100,000 was the elite of the barbarian warriors, almost all of them were martial artists above the Acquired Realm."

One hundred thousand warriors! ?

Shen Wenxing found it somewhat unbelievable.

It should be noted that the entire barbarian population is at most ten million. In the last battle of He County, the 110,000 soldiers of the left flank encountered an elite barbarian force.

Of the 30,000 soldiers, nearly 10,000 were warriors.

In the end, the left flank army paid a heavy price to wipe out the 30,000 elite barbarian troops.

How can the other side still produce so many martial artists?
Do they have a clan that is born with martial arts skills?

"The military commander has already sent orders."

"Order the county magistrates in various places to conscript warriors from the people to the border troops in Yunzhong to prepare for the enemy."

"You are from the Ascension Pavilion. If you could inform the immortals in advance, you might not have to risk going to the front lines."

Shen Wenxing was his nephew-in-law, and now that his niece was pregnant, Huang Yunxiao naturally did not want him to go to the front lines to fight against the barbarians.

After all, it was very strange that the barbarians had gathered 100,000 warriors all at once.

"Well, I'll write a letter later and have it sent to the Royal City's Yingxian Garden to see what the immortals have to say."

Huang Yunxiao didn't want him to go to the front lines, and he himself didn't want to go either.

The Shen family had just been granted the title of a prestigious family and received numerous rewards, so they didn't need that little bit of a noble title.

Seeing that he had heeded his advice, Huang Yunxiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He was genuinely afraid that Shen Wenxing would be stubborn and insist on going to the front lines to kill enemies and gain a title.

"Alright, you go and take care of this first. I need to go back and prepare for the conscription."

After seeing Huang Yunxiao off, Shen Wenxing immediately returned to the second floor of Shengxian Pavilion and wrote a letter.

“Fang Yuanli”

"Immediately send someone by fast horse to the Royal City's Yingxian Garden to deliver this letter to the immortal."

Fang Qing accepted the letter, bowed, and left in a hurry.

“Gongyang Yuanli”

Shen Wenxing looked toward the opening of the Gongyang River where someone was writing something.

"deacon."

Gongyang River stopped writing and bowed.

"How many common people have bought spirit seeds during this period?"

"Please wait a moment, sir, let me check." Gongyang He took out an account book from the side, carefully looked through it for a moment, and said, "Reporting to you, sir, there are a total of twenty-one companies."

"Total income from spirit seeds..."

He thought Shen Wenxing wanted to inquire about the income from selling the spirit seeds, and was about to report when Shen Wenxing interrupted him, saying, "It has been half a year since they purchased the spirit seeds."

"Have Si Cang Yu Hong lead people to check each of the registered addresses to see if any commoners have successfully cultivated the spirit seed."

"The immortal is very concerned about this matter."

Gongyanghe hurriedly cupped his hands in greeting: "Your subordinate will take care of it immediately."

Dayu was the capital of Zhili.

Inside Yingxian Garden, a eunuch stood respectfully before Li Heshan and said obsequiously, "Immortal Li, His Majesty requests that you go to the prison of the Censorate."

Li Heshan frowned: "What is it?"

The eunuch glanced around and lowered his voice, saying, "We captured a barbarian's 'spy' at the border, and obtained some important information from him. His Majesty's intention... is to have the immortal listen to it."

Barbarian?

Important intelligence?

Li Heshan was a little puzzled, but since there was nothing else to do at the moment, he decided to go and see what it was all about.

"Junior Sister Pei, I'll go over there first."

After speaking to Pei Yuwan, who was cultivating beside him, Li Heshan followed the eunuch to the prison of the Inspectorate.

A group of Black Scale Guards escorted a figure wearing a golden mask as they approached.

"Greetings, Immortal Li." The golden-faced figure bowed slightly.

This person is Jin Xiao, one of the three commanders of the Black Scale Guard. His strength has reached the fifth level of Qi Refining, making him a very strong figure among the Innate Realm experts.

Li Heshan nodded: "Where are they?"

Jin Xiao stepped aside, gesturing for him to walk forward.

The group arrived deep inside the prison of the Inspectorate and stopped in front of a specially made cell.

"Bring the person out!"

As soon as Jin Xiao gave the order, several Black Scale Guards rushed into the prison and dragged the barbarian soldier, who was bound in chains, out of there!

Clang!

Wow!

"be honest!"

Dragged along by several Black Scale Guards at the Acquired Realm, the barbarian soldier struggled incessantly, and a rare, faint blood-red aura seeped from his body!
Seeing this, Li Heshan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Blood Fiend of a Hundred Beasts..."

Several Black Scale Guards finally managed to drag the person to their side with great effort.

The barbarian soldier glanced at Li Heshan, a hint of ferocity flashing in his eyes. Taking advantage of the moment when the Black Scale Guards were off guard, he suddenly charged forward!

"Be careful, immortal!"

Upon seeing this, Jin Xiao's eyes widened in horror, and he hurriedly tried to rush forward to stop him.

However, Li Heshan merely touched the ground with his toes, and as he retreated, he gently clapped his hands!
Bang!
An invisible burst of energy sent the barbarian soldier, who resembled a bear, flying!

"Have you all seen the people of Hundred Beasts Mountain?"

After landing, Li Heshan spoke calmly.

The barbarian soldier coughed up blood, struggled a few times but couldn't get up, he just looked at him with a mocking gaze, without answering.

Jin Xiao, standing to the side, was somewhat puzzled and asked in a low voice, "Immortal, what is Hundred Beasts Mountain...?"

Li Heshan pursed his lips and said, "That is also a celestial sect, and it is even stronger than my Qiyun Valley."

"The faint blood-red aura on this person is the Hundred Beast Blood Fiend used by the cultivators of Hundred Beast Mountain to refine their battle beasts."

Jin Xiao suddenly realized: "So it's true what he said about the barbarians having a celestial sect backing them?"

Li Heshan glanced at the barbarian soldier, but didn't ask any further questions. He simply turned and walked out of the prison.

Jin Xiao followed closely behind and chased after him.

"Why don't you ask more questions, immortal?"

Li Heshan shook his head slightly.

Judging from the current situation, he is now basically certain that Qiyun Valley is not the first immortal sect to set its sights on Yangnao Land.

Surprisingly, Hundred Beasts Mountain had already approached the barbarian tribes of Yangnao Land before them.

This matter must be reported to the sect as soon as possible.

Like Qiyun Valley, Hundred Beast Mountain is a low-grade immortal sect, but its strength is slightly greater than that of Qiyun Valley.

The reason is that the cultivators of Hundred Beasts Mountain are skilled at refining and controlling demonic beasts, and can use the power of demonic beasts to exert even greater strength.

In contrast, Qiyun Valley relies on its alchemy formations, making its offensive capabilities relatively weak.

The Blood Fiend of a Hundred Beasts is one of the methods by which the Hundred Beasts Mountain has become famous. By using the power of the Blood Fiend, the potential within the human and beast body can be stimulated in a short period of time, greatly increasing their strength.

However, the side effects of this power of getting something for nothing are also enormous.

Like that barbarian soldier just now, every time he unleashed power beyond his limits, it intensified the fusion between the bloodthirsty power and his own soul.

Ultimately, their intelligence will be completely corrupted by bloodlust, turning them into a mindless beast.

"Commander Jin, you must keep a close watch on this man. If you don't want trouble in the future, it's best to kill him now."

Li Heshan gave a brief instruction and then headed straight for Yingxian Garden.

Jin Xiao didn't quite understand his words, but he still had someone report this to Emperor Yu.

Inside Yingxian Garden, Li Heshan pondered for a long time before speaking, "Junior Sister Pei should return to Qiyun Valley herself and inform the sect leader of this matter as soon as possible."

Pei Yuwan was slightly reluctant.

But knowing that this matter was important, he could only nod in agreement.
