Pursuing Longevity With an Immortal Mansion

Chapter 520 The mess begins

This battle lasted for three days and three nights.

Even with the strong energy of the Golden elixir monks, they still feel a little tired, let alone those Qi refining monks.

Everyone had an obvious look of tiredness on their faces, and some were even sitting on the floor panting, without any manners at all.

Looking around, the towers were full of monks slumping around, many with deep worries on their faces.

This kind of long-lasting battle is still too intense for the Qi Refining monks.

During this period, the mana was probably exhausted several times.

Withdrawing his gaze, Liu Yu shook his head slightly.

Three days and three nights passed, and even with his profound magic power and the continuous use of spiritual stones to replenish it, less than 40% was left.

Although there have been no casualties yet due to the formation, the future is not very bright.

Without reinforcements, once the Five Elements Rotation Formation is breached, the entire city will surely die.

But with the number of Jindan monks from the three sects, it is indeed difficult to have reinforcements to defend such a vast territory.

Liu Yu flashed this idea.

The two middle-grade spiritual stones in his hand were exhausted and turned into powder, so he took out two more pieces and used the silent movement technique to restore his mana.

Although the beast tide has temporarily retreated, it is just a regroupment and will come back soon.

The initiative is no longer in the hands of Jinge City, so we must keep our state perfect at all times and never be careless.

At this moment, Yan Kai came over, saluted and said:

Uncle Master, this battle will consume spiritual stones.

During this special period, this person spoke very fast, and in a few words he fully described the consumption of this battle.

After a big battle, the consumption of spiritual stones using special magic powers such as the Demon Hunting Crossbow and the Divine Crystal Cannon alone reached as much as 20,000 to 30,000.

Although there is a reason to use it frequently because you want to rub off the spirit of the monster, it is enough to illustrate the cost of war.

There will be more than one battle like this in the future!

Only the Nascent Soul Sect can barely bear it. The average Jindan level force may not be able to bear it after two or three times.

This can be seen from the Sima family.

Compared with the three major sects, they are picking and picking when using special magic weapons, and they don't dare to let go at all.

Hearing this, Liu Yu frowned slightly.

One battle consumes 20,000 to 30,000 spiritual stones, and even with the spiritual stones prepared by the sect to defend Jinge City, I am afraid that they will not last long.

Recruiting casual cultivators cost 100,000 spirit stones, and later the sect supported 150,000 spirit stones. However, according to the current trend, it will be used up within a few times.

After thinking about it, he calculated how long the spirit stone could last. Liu Yu frowned and said:

Since the consumption is so high, after this time, the frequency of using the demon hunting crossbow and divine crystal cannon will be reduced to reduce the consumption of spiritual stones.

The reason why it was used frequently for the first time was, firstly, to suppress the ferocity of the monster beasts, and secondly, to reduce the pressure on the monks guarding the city and allow them to adapt.

Now that you have adapted, there is no need to consume spiritual stones as before.

yes!

Yan Kai opened his mouth, but in the end he could only accept the order.

He knew the sect's difficulties. Although this would put all the pressure on the monks guarding the city, there was no other way.

Divide the Nancheng monks into two groups and take turns to rest. The interval between each rotation is six hours.

Arrange it as soon as possible.

After sweeping away the thousands of monks sitting on the ground in the city tower, Liu Yu's face returned to calmness and he ordered.

Under the cruel laws of the jungle, as well as for physical reasons, the energy of the monsters is far greater than that of the monks. The next round of offensive may come at any time, so you must be on guard at all times.

Therefore, there must be a large number of monks standing guard on the city tower anytime and anywhere.

Disciple understands that we have already made plans in this regard and will be able to make arrangements soon.

Yan Kai nodded.

It can be said that most of the casual cultivators came here through routine spending spiritual stones. The counting of the number of people has already been carried out secretly. At this time, it is only necessary to count them once and divide them into two batches.

As for reluctance?

At this time, Jinge City has been completely surrounded by monsters, and there is no way out. Most of the monks have only one option: defending the city.

It is also the best choice for all monks.

Um.

Go ahead.

Liu Yu responded lightly and waved.

Disciple resigns.

Yan Kai cupped his hands, turned around and left in a hurry with a solemn look on his face.

You can see from a distance that this person, along with several sect foundation-building deacons and a dozen inner sect disciples, quickly woke up the resting monks who were sitting on the floor, and loudly announced the Yuanyang Sect's arrangements.

First, the spiritual stones are distributed.

While defending the city, mana needs to be consumed frequently to activate the magic weapon to release spells.

Simply relying on absorbing the spiritual energy in the air to recover is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket and will not work in a fierce battle.

What's more, when the spiritual energy is chaotic during war, it becomes more difficult to absorb and refine it.

As a result, it must be replenished through other methods, and directly absorbing the spiritual energy from the spiritual stones is the cheapest method.

Many casual cultivators were originally a little resentful when they were interrupted during their rest, but when they saw the colorful spiritual stones placed in front of their eyes, they immediately lost all their complaints.

Of course, based on the current spiritual stone reserves, there will definitely not be many spiritual stones distributed.

After the spiritual stones were distributed, arrangements began to be made. The number of casual cultivators was counted and divided into two batches.

After being cleansed with spiritual energy, the cultivator's physique has also been greatly improved. Although he looks exhausted now, six hours is enough to restore his condition to perfection.

Soon, the city tower was filled with people and a noisy scene.

The depressing atmosphere after the war finally diluted a bit.

…

Liu Yu stood with his hands behind his back, standing alone on the high point of the tower, letting the sunlight fall on his body, his expression slightly relaxed.

After the Star True Body cultivated to the realm of the scorching sun, he fell in love with the feeling of bathing in the sun.

It may be due to the long-term absorption of the power of the sun. When the sun is strong, the body's physical cultivation power can run a little faster.

The faster the speed of mana operation, the stronger it will naturally be.

Therefore, the strength in physical cultivation can be faintly increased by a few points when the sun is strong.

In the same way, when the brilliance of the stars and moon is strong, the mana converted into corresponding attributes can also increase the strength a bit.

However, the increase is much smaller than that of sunlight.

Is there a gap between the stars?

If we follow some theories from previous lives, it might be because the stars and moon are far apart and the starlight and moonlight are thinner?

Looking up at the blue sky and the bright sun, Liu Yu's eyes flashed with deep thought.

What the truth was, he didn't know.

Although immortal cultivators can fly, there are all kinds of strong winds in the nine heavens. If they cannot break through, they will not be able to see the true face of the sun and the moon.

Even Yuanyang Sect has very few records on this aspect.

Liu Yu searched through the Sutra Pavilion and found only information about Gang Feng on the first six floors, but no records on the last three floors.

Legend has it that if you want to break through the shackles of the nine layers of Gangfeng and see the reality of the world, you must be a master in the Void Refining Stage.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Liu Yu looked back, her expression becoming serious again.

His gaze seemed to travel through mountains and rivers, seeing scenes that ordinary monks could not see.

In his consciousness, the monsters were gathering and regrouping fifty miles away, and the auras of several third-level monster cultivators were looming.

Especially one of the auras is the most astonishing, reaching the level of the late third level, which is comparable to the late stage Jindan monks. In addition, with the extraordinary bloodline, it is better than the monks of the same level.

It's Han Tianying!

Before the war started, a summons and a memory charm had been sent out.

I wonder if reinforcements can still arrive based on the current situation of the sect?

Liu Yu suddenly had this idea, and then shook his head, not having any hope.

Based on the current situation of the three sects, it was extremely unlikely that reinforcements would be available, but he still sent out the messenger talisman as an attempt.

No matter what, prepare for the worst.

After thinking for a while, Liu Yu put aside all the distracting thoughts, and sent Zhuo Mengzhen, Cangyun, and Sima Kong through his spiritual consciousness, then turned around and walked towards the City Lord's Mansion.

Whether there is support or not is not something he can decide in Jinge City. There is no benefit in thinking about it, it will only increase worries.

Before arriving at Jinge City, the sect had prepared a life-saving talisman, which could be used to escape after the city was breached.

After being activated, the escape speed can be increased to one level.

Compared with ordinary monks, as long as he is not targeted by powerful demon cultivators, he is very confident of escaping unscathed, and he does not even need to use the Instant Thousand Miles Talisman.

Because of this, it is even less possible to be in the limelight.

Soon, Liu Yu met Zhuo Mengzhen and three others in the meeting hall of the city lord's palace and began to discuss the matter of defending the city in detail.

At the critical moment, Zhuo Mengzhen also temporarily put aside his prejudices, his hostility was reduced a lot, and he did not continue to oppose him.

Only occasionally when they looked at each other, they still looked coldly at each other.

…

Bang bang bang bang

The roar of magical weapons and spells resounded across the sky, the sky outside Jinge City was filled with smoke, and densely packed monster beasts swept in.

Looking from a distance, countless black shadows gradually bury Jinge City, with only the colorful brilliance of the Five Elements Rotating Array occasionally shining through the black shadows.

Eleven hours after the first siege, the demonic beasts couldn't wait and launched another attack.

Liu Yu's opponent was still the Snow Spirit Leopard.

As if it had lost face in the previous round, the Leopard's attack was more intense this time, and its strength was slightly stronger.

Ding Ding Roar!

The pale golden spear lotus bloomed, and the sunset golden rainbow spear was like lightning, its tyrannical power sweeping across all directions.

Only this time, the Snow Spirit Leopard, who had been well prepared, took over steadily. The fight was back and forth for a while, but he couldn't even gain the slightest advantage.

Roar!!!

After regaining the place, Xue Lingbao suddenly became very happy. He roared loudly during the battle and swept away the depression in his heart.

This is of course not because the leopard's strength suddenly increased a lot, but because Liu Yu secretly held back his hand.

Since I have decided not to be in the limelight, it is better to keep a low profile, as long as I involve a third-level demon cultivator.

If you exert too much strength, you may attract the attention of many demon cultivators, and you may be besieged after the city is broken.

If the strength emitted is too weak, it may also be regarded as prey by several demon cultivators and suffer the same treatment.

Grasp the speed and play back and forth, which is undoubtedly the best choice.

As soon as I think about it, the world becomes wider in an instant!

Fulfilling the role of an early Jindan cultivator and not having any expectations for the final result, Liu Yu immediately felt a lot more relaxed.

Even the mana consumption in the battle has been reduced a lot.

As long as he fulfills his responsibilities, he can accept the final result calmly. Anyway,

Boom boom boom!!!

The overwhelming tide of monsters and beasts quickly approached Jinge City from all directions. Thousands of arrows fired from the city tower. Thousands of magic weapons and spells fell into the tide of monsters, and large swaths of monsters died on the spot.

But even so, all kinds of monsters and monsters still go forward and fight without fear of death.

Relying on the endless numbers and the powerful defense of the demon body, they still approached the city wall little by little.

The frequency of use of special magic weapons such as the demon-hunting crossbow and the divine crystal cannon decreased, and the pressure on the city-defending monks immediately increased. However, they had no way out and could only grit their teeth and persevere.

However, after the previous battle, the performance of all the monks this time was much better.

Facing this kind of big scene war, I unconsciously became much calmer.

Whenever the city-defending monks approach their limit and the beast tide enters a dangerous area, the Five Elements Rotating Array's strongest attack method, the Five-Colored Hurricane, will be activated, giving the city-defending monks a rare respite.

As the sun rose and set, the demonic beast was more fully prepared this time, and it took four days to retreat.

Even the formation has been shaken several times, causing many monks to worry.

Uncle Liu, this battle will consume you.

The beast tide temporarily retreated, and Yan Kai quickly calculated the consumption and hurriedly came to report.

After listening, Liu Yu nodded slightly.

This son is becoming more and more familiar with these chores, and he does a good job with the help of his monks.

At this time, we should not be too simple and rough when dealing with casual cultivators, but should be gentler.

We must try our best to mobilize these casual practitioners, do a good job in ideological work, and instill some concepts of fight hard and have a better tomorrow, and never let them fall into despair.

Once they lose hope, they will become difficult to control and their strength will be greatly affected, which is very detrimental to defending the city.

Not only casual cultivators, but also sect disciples and vassal cultivators in Qingzhou.

Glancing over the casual cultivators who were slumped on the ground with blank eyes, Liu Yu suddenly frowned, pondered for a while, and gave instructions.

When people live, they always need a little hope, no matter how small that hope is.

What do you mean, Uncle Master?!

Halfway through Yan Kai's words, if he realized something, he stopped and thought for a while before continuing:

Disciple understands.

Then immediately arrange a team to take charge of ideological work?

Go. Liu Yu nodded gently.

Yes! Yan Kai accepted the order suddenly, but a look of struggle flashed in his eyes, but he did not leave directly.

He hesitated and asked:

Disciple, I dare to ask my uncle, will there really be reinforcements from the sect, Qingxu Sect, and Hehuan Sect?

Can this Jin Ge City really be able to hold on?

Faced with the overwhelming tide of beasts, and the demonic beasts' side's golden elixir-level combat power that surpassed their own, even a peak foundation-building monk like Yan Kai felt confused and uneasy.

Even in the third-level top formation, there is no sense of security at all.

From this we can know what is the situation of the monks in Jinge City from top to bottom.

Liu Yu didn't know how to answer this question because he didn't have an answer either.

It's just that his cultivation level is higher, his strength is stronger, and he is more calm than low-level monks.

Pitch without fear!

“Life always finds its way.”

He pondered for a moment and said something paradoxical and ambiguous.

Liu Yu didn't know the way out for ordinary monks, but of course he couldn't tell it directly, so his ambiguous answer was indeed suspected of being mysterious.

Hearing this, Yan Kai was thoughtful, silently bowed his hands and turned around to leave in a hurry.

Orders came from top to bottom, and arrangements were quickly made.

A team of about twenty or thirty people, all composed of beautiful and beautiful cultivators, came into being. They were responsible for the ideological work of all the cultivators.

Spread hope and inspire fighting spirit!

Like some angel in white.

…

After three months,

City Lord's Mansion, Council Hall.

At this time, the hall fell into an eerie silence, like a prelude to the coming storm.

What do you think of this matter?

Claiming to be the leader of the four, Taoist Cangyun spoke first.

Just now, several communication talismans broke through the obstacles and reached the hands of the four people.

That was a letter from the three major sects after three months.

The main idea of ​​this letter is that the beast tide is now in full swing, and there are too many urgent places that need to be guarded. The three sects really can't spare the manpower to come for reinforcements.

However, negotiations with other immortal cultivation circles have accelerated, and the alliance has also begun to fully intervene in this matter.

As long as we hold on to Jinge City for five years, reinforcements will inevitably arrive.

boom!!!

snort!

Five years, that's easy to say. How do those people know the situation in Jinge City at this time?!

Things are urgent elsewhere, so isn't the situation in this city urgent?

Other places are important, but Jinge City is not.

Zhuo Mengzhen was the most direct. He suddenly slapped the table and let out a cold snort. The table immediately fell into pieces. He was obviously very dissatisfied with this order.

The silver ring swayed and made a crisp sound in her ears, but no one was in the mood to appreciate it at this time.

Five years? If this trend continues, it will be a blessing to stick to May.

Sima Yong, who was smiling all over his face, lost his smile at this time. However, he did not dare to speak loudly about the faults of the three major sects. He only dared to mutter in a low voice to vent his dissatisfaction.

Compared to the three of them, Liu Yu's face looked much better and she remained silent without speaking.

He had already decided to show off. At this time, his mentality was very correct and he did not have many negative emotions.

Having done his part, whether Jin Ge City can be defended in the end has little to do with him.

The worst case scenario is to act by ear and be ready to run away at any time.

Anyway, he has many trump cards, and as long as he is not besieged by many third-order demon cultivators, the risk is actually not great.

Perhaps the destruction of Jinge City may not be a good thing for me?

If the city is broken and you escape back to the sect, you will have more reason to stay in the rear. The risk will immediately be reduced.

Even if another dangerous mission is assigned by then, it won't be my turn. After all, I have already been on the front line once.

On the contrary, this city has been unbroken, so the risk is even greater?

It's too close to the Hengduan Mountains. You might have a fourth-order monster passing by one day, or a large number of third-order monsters might suddenly appear.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that I have no reason not to show off?

Liu Yu looked as usual, with many thoughts flashing through his mind.

But even so, he only planned to destroy it, and had no intention of secretly adding fuel to the flames and letting Jin Ge City be destroyed.

There are countless weird and strange secret techniques in the world of immortality. As long as you do them, there is no guarantee that they will not leave traces and be discovered.

Once the news is leaked, the entire Seven Nations Alliance and even Tiannan will have no place to stay, and the risk is too great.

Therefore, it's better to let nature take its course.

Listening to the discussion of the three people, Liu Yu continued to remain silent, with various thoughts flashing through his mind.

PS: Letting things go bad means that when things can no longer develop in a good direction, we simply no longer take measures to control them, but let them continue to develop in a bad direction.
