Chapter 423 Returning to the Mountain
"After a long absence, Pindao has returned."

Looking at Chishan in front of him, Chixuan couldn't help feeling a little bit more sad and emotional.

Today's Chishan Mountain has already become the largest and most extensive mountain in Juling County. Probably because Tu Shanjun dumped spirit stones to shape the spirit veins, so Chishan began to gather the surrounding mountains and rivers with the condensation of the spirit veins.

As a result, the inconspicuous hills grew into tall mountains and rivers.

The Chiyang Palace is no longer dilapidated as before.

With the help of magic skills like Chitian Lishi, the dilapidated Chiyang Palace can be repaired into a majestic hall on the top of mountains without spending any effort.

There are not many handymen and Taoist boys. The past few years have been too busy, and Chixuan has no chance to recruit apprentices. He can only slowly select children from the refugees, and then absorb them to become Taoist boys of Chiyang Palace.

When it comes to chores, it is because Chiyang Palace needs people to take care of it, or clean it, water it, add oil...

Most of these mundane chores require adults to do, so they recruited some young believers with clean families and hard work with wages.

Chishan was the first to develop, and there is no shortage of believers.

Most of the believers in Ji County surround Chishan, which seems to be a place of pilgrimage.

Chixuan's return to Chishan was very low-key, and no outsiders knew about it.Even many chiefs in Juling County didn't know that Chi Xuan had left Juling County and returned to Chishan.

The first thing I did when I came to Chishan was to block the news.

Before leaving, he also asked Zhou Hui and Li Yuanzhen to pay attention to the army movements of the Great Cang court.

Especially Chu Liangyong who was the closest to them, who led an army stationed in Liangzhou.This person can destroy Tianli Sect within one month, and his strength should not be underestimated.

Furthermore, both Lizhou and Cangzhou need to appease and integrate and recruit troops.

They are not fleeing bandits, and the territory they have conquered cannot be left alone. Originally, the other two states were also under natural disasters and man-made disasters, so now the same mess is waiting for Chi Tianhui to clean up.

There are lofty mountains and great ridges, steep and beautiful peaks, and a group of temples and buildings to watch Taoist families.Chi Xuan couldn't help sighing, but in just a few years, Chishan has changed a lot, and even the world has changed in another way.

Wu Ruoshui looked at the huge Chishan in surprise, she didn't expect that the head of the Chitianhui would be here, let alone that Chishan would be like this.

She had been to Ji County before, and she had also heard of Chishan.

See you again, it's not what it used to be.

Old Monster Jing's eyes lit up and he sighed, "It's such a rich and solid aura."

Then he looked at Mr. Tu Shan who was standing aside, the spirit stones needed to bury a spirit vein out of thin air would be very huge, and he had to use formations to solidify the spirit vein.

It's like planting a spiritual seed, you need to wait for the seed to germinate and grow.

If you want the seeds to germinate, you need a lot of fertilizer, of course.

Most of the rocks under the Chishan Mountain were replaced by Tu Shanjun with spirit stones, just to make the spirit energy sufficient.

At least under Tu Shanjun's calculations, except that Chi Xuan himself was taken advantage of by the heart demon, otherwise there is nothing that can prevent Chi Xuan from forming a golden pill.

"Spirit sealing method?"

Tu Shanjun smiled calmly: "Once I got a spiritual vein."

"This spirit vein was sealed in a storage bag by me, and it's time to play a role."

The spiritual vein was drawn from the Chiwu sect, it was a second-order spiritual vein, and it was pressed into the jade box with the mustard seed technique.

Mr. Tu Shan didn't plant all the spiritual veins in Dahei Mountain. The spiritual veins of Dahei Mountain are at the third level, and there is not much benefit from planting them, so he took the spiritual veins with him in case of emergency.

Formation of alchemy is unusual, it requires a larger amount of aura, and even needs a good spiritual vein for blessing, so as to have the confidence to form alchemy.

Ordinary small sects only have enough first-order small spiritual veins for foundation building. If you want to form a golden core, you have to slowly collect resources and send treasures to the big sect to seek a chance to form a core in the land of the spiritual vein.

To form a golden core in such a world where spiritual energy is exhausted, the resources required are relatively huge, and naturally it is more difficult than in the small wasteland.

That is to say, Mr. Tu Shan has such resources. Otherwise, if someone else comes, he can only slowly collect spiritual energy, or find a sect in the cave to borrow it.

In Dongtian, where the spiritual energy is exhausted, the spiritual veins are the treasures of the sect, and even the loss of spiritual energy is enough for them to feel distressed.

At that time, apart from robbing, you can only bite the bullet and force the alchemy.

Tu Shanjun thought of Old Monster Jing. Logically speaking, with the cultivation of Old Monster Jing, he should have a lot of resources on his body.

Seeing Tu Shanjun's strange gaze, Xu Shi said with a faint smile, "My old man's resources have been exchanged for healing and life-saving things. After fleeing for so long, they have already been exhausted. Only those three treasures are still considered family property."

"There will always be some spirit stones..."

"Except for dozens of top-quality spirit stones used to activate the formation, the rest are not kept. Jin Yuanyang didn't think about leaving any escape route for himself." Old Monster Jing fell into deep thought.

He forgot what state he was in, and why he entered Yuanyang.

I don't know if it was too long, or because of the erosion of the incense, or both, he forgot too many things.

Tu Shanjun didn't bother Mr. Jing who was deep in thought.

These days, Old Monster Jing would always be like this, he would be dazed from time to time, and when he came back to his senses, he seemed to have forgotten what he just said.

This is obviously not a good sign.

Wu Ruoshui didn't want to disturb her anymore, she was still immersed in the joy full of aura.

He San followed closely beside Chi Xuan, whispering the news from all directions for Chi Xuan.

Most of them are about the movements of the court soldiers and horses.

"Great Master, Liangzhou's army had already set off half a month ago. The Xuzhou Mark Pass informant just arrived today, and they have already found traces of Liangzhou's army."

"Xuzhou Gate?"

"Yanmen."

Lei Heng, the gatekeeper of the Yanmen Gate, looked solemn.

"Report!"

"The contingent carrying the Chu character banner disappeared in Yanmen Canyon, and did not come towards Yanmen."

"not coming?"

Lei Heng frowned. The 10,000+ army had been staying with him for more than ten days. He thought he was going to attack the city, but there was always thunder and rain, and it seemed more like harassment to find a way to break through.

How could it disappear so easily.

Even with the escape method, no such powerful monk can lead them around.

Lei Heng, who was deep in thought, widened his eyes suddenly: "No, they didn't want to cross Yanmen at all, but planned to attack Yiguan and break through Juling."

"Quick, Commander."

Lei Heng thought for a second that it would be better to send the message by himself, it might be too late to rely on the army sergeant to deliver the message.Immediately to open the altar, please take out the talisman that conveys the message, ignite it and send it to Juling County.

Juling.

Zhou Hui had already received the news that Yiguan had been breached, and he couldn't help sighing: "Chu Liangyong, Marshal Chu, played Lei Heng with 3000 horsemen, and was able to break through Yiguan before the news came. I really have an idea."

The other two armies of the imperial court have also arrived in Lizhou and are attacking the city.Steady and steady, and did not directly detour to attack the weaker Yiguan like Chu Liangyong.

Maybe he could see Chu Liangyong in a day or two.

"General Zhou, Yiguan is broken, and the 10,000+ army will come to the city in a short time. We should let the guards of other passes come to support."

Zhou Hui nodded calmly and said: "General Li, don't be in a hurry. Juling County won't be breached so easily. With the support of six counties' food, grass and soldiers, Chu Liangyong will only be consumed by us in Xuzhou."

Li Yuanzhen shouted: "Juling County is very important!"

The six counties of Xuzhou, and the remaining five counties combined are not as important as Juling County. This is the chief rudder of Chitianhui, and it is the incense dojo of Chitianjun.

As long as Juling County is not lost, Chi Tianjun's strength will not weaken much.

Therefore, even if Lizhou and Cangzhou would be lost, Li Yuanzhen still felt that soldiers and horses should be sent back to help. It would be difficult to defend Chu Liangyong, who led the court and monks from all sides, with only [-] to [-] soldiers and horses in the city.

He knew the truth, the Archmage wanted to form an alchemy, and he didn't sit in Juling County, so he felt a little flustered.

Zhou Hui sat cross-legged in front of the handsome case, looked at the military documents in his hand, and said casually: "General Li, how many years have we been walking all the way?"

Li Yuanzhen felt a little strange, but he didn't think too much and replied, "It's been four years."

"Four years."

Zhou Hui raised his head. Now he has faded away from his youthful innocence, and is more like a majestic general. He calmly put down the silk scroll in his hand: "We are no longer the weak and powerless disaster victims."

"We can't always rely on the Archmage either."

"The defenders in the six counties are arranged very reasonably."

"Xuzhou and Cangzhou can only believe that they can hold on."

"Contracting forces during wartime is not a good decision. It will cause many soldiers to sacrifice their lives, and it will also cause believers to be displaced, which will damage the prestige and morale of the army."

"Whether we can defend or not, we cannot shake the morale of the army."

"We have become stronger." Zhou Hui looked at Li Yuanzhen with a smile on his face, and the mana of the incense turned into a steaming breath soaring into the sky, and the phantom magic body condensed behind him.

Li Yuanzhen suddenly realized that they were very different from before. Some things had to be faced, and they could not be solved by escaping.

After the discussion, Li Yuanzhen left.

Zhou Hui sat quietly in the hall. In fact, Li Yuanzhen's thinking was correct, but the timing was wrong.

Juling County is not important, what is important is the Archmage.

As long as the archmage can form the alchemy, Juling County will be lost, and they will all die in battle. Zhou Hui also feels that he has achieved his goal.When Juling County is used to attract firepower and targets, these people will not go to Chishan to disturb the Archmage's breakthrough.

"I hope everything goes well with the archmage." Zhou Hui, dressed in full armor, walked out of the commander's hall and prepared to personally inspect the equipment and supplies for the defense of the city.

……

"Archmage."

The Daoist who came up respectfully bowed his hands and saluted.

Chi Xuan signaled the opponent not to follow.

The rebuilt Chiyang Palace was shaped by Chitian Lishi according to his ideas, and naturally he didn't need others to guide him.

Walking to the offering hall, Chixuan looked at the ranks scattered here and there, took incense offerings at random, cast a spell to ignite it, and shook off the flames, only to see wisps of smoke flying above, Chixuan bowed and bowed again.

Staring at the tablet in a daze.
