Pursuing Longevity With an Immortal Mansion

Chapter 216: Dark Night Raid (two chapters in one)

Although it has received the care of the Yan family, Wangyue City is not the Yan family's sole authority after all, but is jointly run by three Jindan elders.

Everyone belongs to the same sect, so at least it is fair on the surface.

Under such circumstances, many of the monks from the Yan family had to go to the front lines, not to mention Liu Yu, an outsider.

So this time Liu Yu was inevitably assigned a somewhat risky mission, to sneak attack on a mineral vein of Hehuanmen on the border of Jingzhou and ask to destroy it so that it could not be mined normally.

He had already been mentally prepared for such an arrangement.

This kind of task may be very risky for ordinary foundation-building monks, but for Liu Yu now, it may not be so.

With his current strength, as long as he doesn't encounter people like Hehuan Liuzi, or falls into siege or ambush, the risk is actually very small.

All confidence comes from one's own strength. If he wants to escape, if the Golden Core cultivator does not take action, there will not be many people who can keep him during the foundation building period.

Under the scanning of the spiritual consciousness, all the scenery is so clear, the grass, soil, trees and rivers are clearly visible in the spiritual consciousness, and even the insects buried deep under the ground are clearly visible.

Except for the monks who were performing this mission, no monks from Hehuanmen were found nearby.

This made Liu Yu breathe a sigh of relief and regain his consciousness, but the string in his heart still did not relax.

Along with him on this mission were eight other foundation-building monks and seventy disciples in the middle and late stages of Qi refining.

It is worth noting that among the foundation-building monks who performed this mission, there were two acquaintances that Liu Yu was relatively familiar with.

They were Zhuang Shilong who came to Wangyue City with him, and Xie Junjie who exchanged the Huang family's alchemy inheritance.

The two people seemed to be familiar with each other, and they were still talking while running. Liu Yu turned his head and looked over while thinking, but Xie Junjie happened to look over as well.

The two of them looked as normal, and nodded to each other with a smile on their face. The monk who didn't know it thought that the relationship between the two was so good, but then naturally turned his head, but the smile on his face was gone.

It's best not to offend Liu, otherwise...

Liu Yu's eyes narrowed slightly.

However, it was difficult for ordinary monks in the middle stage of foundation building to endanger his life. The most noteworthy person in the team was not these two people, but a tall man with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, wearing dark blue clothes.

In the spiritual sense, this person is the person with the strongest spiritual pressure that Liu Yu has ever seen besides Elder Jindan. The aura around him is extremely deep, and he is even stronger than Li Butong.

This made him feel a lot of pressure, and he thought that he had no chance of winning against him. After all, his realm was too far apart.

Zhou Zhuofeng

This person is one of the Three Heroes and Four Heroes of Yuanyang Sect, ranking fourth.

Not only has his cultivation reached the peak of the late foundation building stage, but he is also a Leilinggen monk, and his reputation is far-reaching and his strength is incomparable.

He is one of the most powerful monks during the foundation building period. His status in Yuanyang Sect is higher than that of the leader Zhuang Ziling. He is an outstanding representative of the sect's foundation building monks.

Even monks like Zhou Zhuofeng have been sent out. It seems that the sect attaches great importance to this mission.

Liu Yu's eyes flashed with deep thoughts. Although there were only nine Foundation Establishment monks in this mission, they were very powerful.

Including Zhou Zhuofeng, there are three monks in the late stage of foundation establishment, four monks in the middle stage of foundation establishment, and only himself and one other person in the early stage of foundation establishment.

The average level of cultivation is considered high in the foundation-building period, and they are all sect monks with good roots and excellent magical weapons. There is no problem in easily defeating a team of foundation-building monks.

Although the ordinary foundation-building team also consists of nine people, most of them are in the early to middle stages of foundation-building, and not all of them are sect monks. Their actual combat power is uneven and far from comparable to this.

In order to prevent being discovered in advance, the seventy-nine monks landed fifty miles away from the target, and then continued on foot, with very few conversations during the period.

While Liu Yu was vigilant and thinking, the trees and grass gradually became sparse, and the green in the distance began to decrease, followed by a yellow wasteland dotted with sporadic green.

As far as the field of vision can be seen, there are two ordinary hills more than a hundred feet high, and there is a fairly wide valley between the two hills.

In the second half of the Youshi period, the sun was only shining brightly. With the eyesight of a cultivator, one could clearly see miners queuing up to hand over today's harvest, then collect food and return to the shack to rest.

Amethyst Mine.

Approaching the mission target, Zhou Zhuofeng paused and waved to signal everyone to stop.

Use the terrain to hide and prevent being discovered by the Hehuanmen monks.

We will launch a surprise attack at midnight when the enemy cultivators relax their vigilance, and strive to succeed in the first attempt.

If anyone is accidentally discovered by the Hehuan Sect monks, he will be dealt with strictly according to the sect's rules and will not be lenient!

Zhou Zhuofeng stared at the valley for a while, then turned around and gave instructions lightly.

As one of the Three Heroes and Four Heroes, he is highly valued by the sect's senior leaders, and he is the strongest in the field, so there is no doubt that he will be the sole leader.

When an order is given at this time, it is natural for everyone to obey.

Yes, Senior Brother Zhou (Uncle Zhou).

Regardless of the monks in the foundation-building stage or the disciples in the Qi-refining stage, they all accepted the order suddenly, and then each found a place to hide.

Liu Yu also jumped onto a leafy tree, picked a thick branch and sat cross-legged.

A ray of consciousness enters the storage bag and checks his magic weapons, spiritual weapons, talismans, talismans, etc., to make sure they are all in familiar places, so that he can quickly take them out at a thought.

The main purpose of this mission of the sect is to destroy the mine as much as possible and kill the monks and miners in the mine as much as possible, so that it will be paralyzed and unable to operate normally. It will not be able to mine normally for at least ten years, causing losses to Hehuanmen.

The raw amethyst stone mined in the amethyst mine can be refined into a weapon-refining material called Liuying Amethyst through complex refining.

The price of Liuying Amethyst is not low and the sales volume is very good. It is a good auxiliary material for refining the best and top-grade magic weapons. As long as a small amount is mixed in when refining the weapon, it can make the integration of other materials more smooth, and at the same time, the spiritual power will run in it. It will also be much smoother.

This mine is not small, and the amount of raw amethyst mined is very considerable. It is refined into flowing amethyst and then sold into spiritual stones, which can bring a lot of income to Hehuanmen every year.

It is not much less important than the Bingliu Spiritual Medicine Garden of Yuanyang Sect. If it can be paralyzed, it will definitely be a big blow.

It's just that unlike Bingliu Spiritual Medicine Garden, this place is only 180 miles away from the Tianqiong City, the gateway to Jingzhou. With the speed of the monks in the middle stage of foundation building, they can get there in less than half an hour.

Tianqiong City and Wangyue City are located at the edge of Qingjing Continent respectively, facing each other far to the north and south. They are about the same size. The Jindan Elder of Hehuan Sect is also commanding in the city.

Therefore, we must fight quickly, otherwise we will definitely fall into an unfavorable situation. The Presbyterian Council sent Zhou Zhuofeng probably out of this consideration.

Liu Yu thought silently and was ready to run away immediately if the situation turned bad.

However, everything has pros and cons. It is precisely because the Amethyst Mine is too close to Sky City, and because the frontal battlefield and various resource points require manpower, the number of Hehuanmen monks here is not large.

According to the information from the secret agent stationed at Hehuan Gate, even when the situation was at its most tense, there were only nine foundation-building monks and seventy or eighty Qi-refining period monks stationed there. Now there will only be fewer and not more. .

Of course, the less the better, the better is to catch the enemy by surprise and gain a first-mover advantage, and the Amethyst Mine is not light, and there will be no shortage of various overt and hidden sentries.

It's easy to spot during the day, but you can get closer at night, which is more beneficial to you.

As time passed, the sun, despite its unwillingness, had to sink into the horizon, and the last trace of its afterglow completely disappeared.

The starry sky tonight is particularly dim, the bright moon is nowhere to be seen, and the sky is darker than before.

It's a murderous night with a dark moon and high wind.

The darkness of the field of vision was to one's advantage. The seventy-nine monks on the mission waited quietly. At this time, they were no longer in the mood to talk. Most of them took out their magic weapons and wiped them silently.

They all know that a fierce battle is inevitable tonight!

The mission begins, let's finish it quickly.

When midnight arrived, Zhou Zhuofeng's words reached the ears of every monk in the woods, followed by a burst of whispering sounds.

yes!

The deacons in the foundation building stage and the disciples in the Qi refining stage all present took orders, then walked out of the woods onto the wasteland, heading towards the valley between the two mountains, with the goal of the amethyst mine.

The foundation-building monks opened a path ten miles ahead, while the Qi-refining monks advanced steadily ten miles behind. Seventy or eighty figures quietly approached the direction of the amethyst mine.

Uh-huh

Small screams could be heard from time to time in the wilderness, but they disappeared immediately before they could spread further.

These were secret sentries placed outside the mine. Unfortunately, they were only in the Qi Refining Stage. Since the mine was too close to Sky City, they had not been attacked in recent decades, so they relaxed their vigilance.

Although these Acacia Sect monks were well hidden, they were nowhere to be seen under the careful search of the Foundation Establishment monks. Some of the monks even died without knowing how they died, and there was no time to send out a message.

While removing the secret sentry and moving forward steadily, the Yuanyang Sect monks took advantage of the darkness and slowly approached, starting from fifty miles away and slowly approaching the range of twenty miles.

At this time, everyone was already on one of the hills, overlooking the amethyst mine in the valley.

There were only sporadic lights in the mine, which could not dispel the dense darkness at all. It still maintained its original silence, which meant that the Yuanyang Sect and his party were still not discovered.

Nodding to each other, the Yuanyang Sect's foundation-building monks no longer hesitated and slowly advanced toward the mine according to the previous rhythm.

Twenty miles, sixteen miles, thirteen miles, ten miles!

Being close to the mine within fifteen miles means completely entering the field of vision of the Hehuanmen monks. As long as the enemy cultivators have set up sentries on another mountain, they can easily detect the Yuanyang Sect and his party.

Although there were nine foundation-building monks to clear the hidden sentry, they were unable to do anything about the sentry on another hill. They could only move forward, and the sooner they were discovered, the sooner they would be discovered.

Enemy attack!

From the distance of fifteen miles to ten miles, although the Hehuanmen monks slacked off due to the long period of comfort, they finally discovered many monks of Yuanyang Sect.

After all, seventy or eighty people are too conspicuous, and simple invisibility techniques can't hide under the Sky Eye Technique.

ah!

Following a long roar, the sentry post on another hill finally discovered this group of malicious monks and promptly issued an early warning to the mine.

The silent night sky was broken by this long roar, and then seven or eight rays of white light quickly flew towards the mine.

Not good, the transmission talisman.

Zhou Zhuofeng, Liu Yu and other foundation-building monks reacted quickly and knew they had been discovered.

Take fifteen disciples and quickly clear the sentry outside. Leave no disciples outside the Hehuan Sect behind. We will meet back when the task is done.

Now that it had been discovered, Zhou Zhuofeng quickly adjusted his strategy.

Continuing to hide was just a lie to himself and others, so he simply ordered the fifteen disciples to kill the sentry post, while the remaining monks approached the mine openly and at full speed, no longer sneaking around to suppress their speed.

Needless to say, when he was giving instructions to the disciples in the Qi Refining Stage, Liu Yu, Xie Junjie, Zhuang Shilong and other eight foundation-building monks had already taken out their magic weapons and turned into various kinds of escaping light and moved forward at full speed.

Ten miles is too short for the foundation-building monks who control the magic weapon. Only a quarter of half an hour has passed and the time is approaching.

Unfortunately, the early warning from the Hehuanmen sentry post finally worked. Before Liu Yu and others approached, the light red mask covering most of the mine had gradually brightened.

The color changes from light red to pink and gradually to dark red.

Liu Yu frowned slightly. He didn't need to think about it to know that someone was operating the formation with all his strength, making the formation that was running in a low-power state run at full power, and its power began to recover.

Although the eight Yuanyang Sect foundation-building monks had various thoughts in their minds, the movements of their hands were not slow at all. Before the escape light fell, they had already taken out the best magic weapon and blasted it towards the formation without hesitation.

From the sentry warning to the approaching attack, not much time actually passed. It could be seen that not all the Hehuanmen foundation-building monks had arrived yet, and only three magic weapons were out to stop the attack.

The Yuanyang Sect's foundation-building monks have a relatively high level of cultivation, and the monks who performed this task were all above average in strength, and only two of the eight magic weapons were blocked.

The remaining six top-quality magic weapons wiped out the magic weapons and spells of many monks in the Qi Refining Stage, and bombarded the pink light shield.

“Bang bang bang”

Six loud bangs in a row completely broke the silence of the night and spread in the wilderness.

The power of the formation has not yet fully recovered. The red mask trembled after the continuous bombardment. Six pits suddenly appeared on the surface, and the area of ​​the pits was dim and nearly transparent.

Inside the formation, a charming female practitioner wearing pink gauze and a charming face was operating the formation. Her face turned pale when she saw this scene. However, after all, she was a foundation-building monk who had experienced many battles. She knew that her life and death were at stake at this moment. At the critical moment, the Yuanyang Sect monks must not be allowed to break the formation.

Otherwise, life and death will be in the hands of others, and given the relationship between the two sects, there may be no chance of survival.

The enchanting female cultivator did not hesitate, spraying a mouthful of blood on the formation plate, and fired dozens of spells in succession in order to restore and maintain the formation.

This place is not far from Sky City. She believes that as long as she persists with her formation, reinforcements will surely arrive and the current predicament will be solved.

Outside the formation, Liu Yu and others saw that the effect of the blow was significant, and they did not hesitate to control the magic weapon to retreat slightly to accumulate strength.

At the same time, the escaping light dropped with increased intensity, and each person used two top-quality magic weapons to bombard the formation at the same time, leaving no chance for the Hehuanmen monks to breathe.

Our strength is definitely better than that of the Hehuan Sect monks. As long as the obstacle of the formation is removed, it will be easy to complete the task.
