Chapter 129 Scheme

That's it!

After a moment's hesitation, Lu Yang described to everyone the scene he had seen within the strange formation.

A steed of unparalleled brilliance! A fifth-tier demonic beast, the Stone Lion! A fourth-tier supreme spiritual vein! The Stone Forest Secret Realm! A blessed land! Mutual destruction!

This!

Why didn't you say so sooner?

Lu Changkong glared at Lu Yang. Such an important matter, and they only brought it up now? They even went through the trouble of consulting ancient texts and searching for information.

Lu Guchu waved his hand, "It's right not to say. This is a blessed land, after all. This chaotic stone forest is not something we can control. The more we know, the greater the trouble will be."

Fortunately, Xuan Yang didn't say so earlier, otherwise we would probably be fixated on the Chaotic Stone Forest and caught off guard by the priest.

But now it's perfect. I was thinking the bait wasn't enough, but now it's just right. I'm just sorry to trouble you, Xuan Yang.

Lu Guchu was a man of great stature; how could he not know Lu Yang's thoughts? It had been agreed before that everything obtained from the strange formation would belong to the individual, and if it was useful to the clan, some could be taken out.

Lu Yang has already taken out the Sun-Eating Technique. As for the Chaotic Stone Forest Secret Realm, their Lu family cannot control it. Since it is an opportunity for Lu Yang, it is only right to leave it for him to obtain in the future.

Perhaps this chaotic rocky forest can truly help the Lu family become a great cultivator.

However, the current conditions do not allow it.

"The priests have already occupied the Chaotic Stone Forest, and the Southern Barbarian army has launched a major offensive. This time, it may be difficult to deal with them."

I have already sent a message to Qingyun Sect, but relying on others is not as good as relying on ourselves. Distant water cannot quench immediate thirst. If we want to protect the foundation of the Lu family, we must save ourselves.

Now that this opportunity has presented itself, I was initially lacking in confidence, but now I'm actually quite certain of it.

Lu Yang wasn't dissatisfied with what he heard. Fourth and fifth tiers were too far away for him. The Chaotic Stone Forest was located outside the four western prefectures, an enclave that he couldn't control right now.

If we can conceal everything and leave it for later, that would be best. But if we can't, there's nothing we can do about it, so we might as well maximize our benefits.

Now that the Chaotic Stone Forest has been occupied by the Sacrificial Temple, it's likely that something has been discovered. In that case, rather than letting others benefit from it, we might as well use this opportunity to make some progress.

"The Great Ancestor's intention is to use the Chaotic Stone Forest Secret Realm as bait to lure forces from all directions into this chaotic situation and stir up the waters of our Western Four Counties."

The Chaotic Stone Forest is, after all, outside the Western Four Counties, within the territory that the Southern Barbarians themselves have claimed. Once a large number of cultivators break into it, how could they be so careless as to continue attacking my Western Four Counties?

This involves fourth and fifth-tier cultivators, which might attract Golden Core or even Nascent Soul cultivators.

only."

Everyone looked at Lu Yang. They hadn't expected that Lu Yang could think so far ahead. They used to think that Lu Yang had good talent for cultivation and good luck, but now it seems that his wisdom and strategy are also top-notch.

"It's just easy to get burned!"

Lu Guchu responded, his heart also filled with worry.

The others looked thoughtful, and Lu Changfeng spoke up, "It's just a matter of circumstance. Facing the Sacrificial Gods, our Lu family has too few bargaining chips. Even if we become a Golden Core family, in the eyes of the Sacrificial Gods, it's no different."

Throughout the history of Nanzhou, very few have been able to establish a firm foothold in this land, not even a powerful sect like the Zixia Sect. So what is our Lu family?

The priest who fought against Xuan Yang last time must have had something wrong with him, but we couldn't find anything out. The Qingyun Sect should have some information, but they haven't reacted at all.

We can't count on them. We don't have many options. We're already lucky to have this one path to take; what more could we ask for?

Upon hearing this, Lu Changkong clenched his fist. "Turning the passive into the active is a good idea. If the Great Ancestor were still in the Foundation Establishment stage, using this plan would be suicide. But now that the Great Ancestor is a Golden Core True Person, it is not impossible to win in the chaos."

"However, we still need to plan properly. We should send this message to Qingyun Sect as soon as possible. But if we only send it to Qingyun Sect, it will be like throwing meat buns to a dog, never to be returned."

The Qingyun Sect might send someone to take over the Chaotic Stone Forest, but that's all. It will only slightly alleviate the predicament of our Lu family, leaving us in a far too passive position.

"Isn't there still a group of Demon God Cult members alive?"

Lu Qingwu followed Lu Qingren in speaking, and everyone's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

Yes, this news came from the members of the Demon God Cult. What does it have to do with the Lu family?

"It's settled then."

As for where that group of Demon God Cult members is, and how to get them to talk, it's not a difficult matter for the Lu family.

boom!

In Nanfeng City, a great battle suddenly broke out. The three great priests of the Southern Barbarians led an army of hundreds of thousands to invade again. The Lu family led the troops to appear in Nanfeng County to resist. The two sides fought back and forth, making it quite a lively scene.

Meanwhile, the law enforcement team of Yanyue Lake discovered members of the Demon God Cult on their own territory.

After capturing it, they received a message that the Chaotic Stone Forest was a transformation of a secret realm, and it may have already completed part of the transformation into a blessed land.

Blessed land!

Upon hearing the news, Moonlit Lake was immediately sealed off, but before it could be sealed off, the news had already spread.

It caused quite a stir.

It's not just about secret realms and blessed lands, but also about fourth-order spiritual veins.

Qingyun Sect.

Sect leader Hong Tao frowned as he looked at the information in his hand.

He had only recently received Lu Guchu's message, and to be honest, he was a little confused. What was the Chaotic Stone Forest? It wasn't a dangerous place or a strategic location, and there was no record of it in the Qingyun Sect before.

Could this place really have a fourth-tier spiritual vein? A fourth-tier secret realm? This is a blessed land.

Do you know what a blessed land is?

That's something related to cultivation at the Nascent Soul stage.

However, the Lu family probably didn't have the guts to deceive him; they likely wanted to exchange this for some protection, given the looming threat from the Southern Barbarians.

Elder Fan's visit to the Lu family last time was indeed a pleasant surprise.

Saintess!

Those priests are useless. They finally produced a saintess, but instead of keeping her hidden, they exposed her.

This special being, capable of communicating with the barbarian gods, was originally forbidden by the Qingyun Sect. However, after reporting it to the patriarch, they were given the order to ignore it.

Otherwise, the high-ranking cultivators of the Qingyun Sect would have already gone to the Southern Barbarian Lands.

But now that it involves blessed lands, even he cannot escape the common practice.

Hong Tao was just about to have Lu Guchu keep the secret and was about to send someone over, but before anything could happen, the news spread like wildfire.

Moon-Hidden Lake!

Hong Tao's eyes turned sinister. He didn't think this was the work of the Lu family. After all, Lu Gu Chu's message made it very clear that the Chaotic Stone Forest was discovered by the followers of the Demon God Cult by chance.

Whether the Lu family can overcome the Southern Barbarian hurdle depends on the Qingyun Sect; how could the Lu family dare to act recklessly?

But this Hidden Moon Lake is truly a waste.

Since blessed lands are involved, not to mention those Nascent Soul and Golden Core forces, even the other two forces among the Three Sects of Tiannan might get involved.

hateful.

It's no longer a question of whether Hong Tao believes it or not. Regardless of whether it's true or not, they have to send people over as soon as possible, and they can't be careless. They can only consult the patriarch.

As the news leaked, the once desolate Southern State, rarely visited by outside forces, suddenly became bustling with activity.

However, the most bustling place was Nanfeng County.

On the border.

After Lu Yang unleashed his Flying Kill Needle, taking the life of a Southern Barbarian cultivator at the peak of Qi Refining, he took the storage bag and the treasures on the cultivator's body and retreated.

"Hey, this Shadowless Veil, which is priced like a magical artifact, is really useful."

That's right, his Shadowless Veil has been upgraded.

The Southern Barbarians invaded again a few days after Lu Yang went to Lu Guchu's cave. Upon hearing this news, the entire Lu family sprang into action.

Even Lu Yang, who wanted to continue farming in Qingcang Mountain, was forced out and went to the battlefield.

Fortunately, Lu Changkong is quite capable and has already mastered the mid-grade spiritual artifact Shadowless Veil and the low-grade spiritual artifact Scorpion Tail Needle.

However, given Lu Yang's strength, using the low-grade spiritual weapon Scorpion Tail Needle is quite strenuous. After one strike, his spiritual energy would be depleted, so it can only be used as a trump card.

The Shadowless Veil, however, is quite useful. When draped over the body, even without using spiritual energy to activate it, it passively prevents Qi Refining cultivators from detecting Lu Yang's whereabouts.

If activated, it could even fool a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the early stages, but it would consume far more spiritual energy. If used, it would only take a few breaths before Lu Yang would collapse.

Therefore, once on the battlefield, Lu Yang only used the passive effect of the Shadowless Veil.

However, that was enough. In half a month, Lu Yang used the Shadowless Veil in conjunction with the magical artifact Flying Killing Needle to take the lives of several Qi Refining evil cultivators or Southern Barbarian priests every day.

However, Lu Yang has been much more restrained lately. There's no way around it; he's already being watched. The Southern Barbarian priests and evil cultivators aren't fools either. With such an assassin on the battlefield, how could they not be on guard?

So whenever Lu Yang appeared, they would gang up on him, forcing him to attack from the sidelines. He only managed to succeed once yesterday and once today.

However, the increasing deployment of troops has put Lu Yang under considerable pressure.

The Southern Barbarians seem to be serious this time, investing their Qi cultivation and combat power as if it were free, causing them to suffer repeated defeats even when the Lu family gathers all the forces in the four western prefectures to attack together.

Not only Qi Refining, but also Foundation Establishment here. Lu Qingwu has already revealed his Foundation Establishment strength. Apart from Lu Qingren who stayed behind at Qingcang Mountain, most of the Lu family's best fighters have gone to the battlefield.

Those who survived have certainly grown, but the casualties are considerable, especially among the Dao soldiers, where nearly half have been killed or wounded. Even among the Qi Refining stage clansmen, more than twenty have been killed or wounded.

Considering the Lu family's overall size, this was already a devastating blow. If the Lu family was in such a state, the situation for the other forces in the four western prefectures was even worse.

The most casual cultivators died; even Chen Futong, a fake Core cultivator, was seriously injured and had to retreat to recuperate.

Lu Changfeng and Lu Changkong were all injured.

Even if the Lu family had plans to bring in other major forces, they would have to wait until those forces arrived before they could proceed.

Before this, if the Lu family couldn't defend the four western prefectures, then everything would be for nothing.

As for backing down and giving up Biannan County, that's even more impossible. If they don't fight here, they'll have to fight in Qingcang County, which the Lu family is unwilling to do.

Besides, morale has plummeted; how can we easily retreat?

In the Golden Core battlefield, Lu Guchu was already fighting three opponents at once.

The atmosphere on the battlefield was already quite intense at this point.

It's only been half a month!

"not good.
