Weird Immortal Cultivation: I can become stronger by working hard
Chapter 246 Start
Chapter 246 Start
Before the large-scale cleaning work of Xianmeng started, the counterattack of the dead world began.
Starting from the underground cave, one after another formation patterns lit up.
This formation in the depths of Nanhezhou was finally activated in advance by Li Shengjun.
What Li Shengjun's mood is at this time, only he knows.
at the same time.
With the activation of the formation, Li Shengjun also struggled to open a space crack.
With the opening of this space crack, those illuminated formation patterns also began to play their original role.
Countless auras were drawn by those formation patterns, and then formed an extremely powerful traction force, opening the space crack opened by Li Shengjun.
At this time, the extremely strong barriers of the world are extremely fragile under the attack from inside and outside.
With this change, the eleven space cracks also opened at the same time, and rapidly became larger.
At the same time, twelve strange-looking figures stepped into the living world at the same time.
Feeling the aura of the law of heaven in the living world that is completely different from the dead world, all the ghosts and gods, including Lin Luoyi, felt a long-lost sense of comfort in their hearts.
biosphere.
we are coming.
This is the common thought of all ghosts and gods at this time.
As the twelve high-ranking gods and the lord Lin Luoyi descended to Nanhezhou at the same time, countless middle-ranking gods and lower-ranking gods emerged from the ever-larger space cracks.
Of course, more Yin Beasts also came out of the opened space crack.
The death world invasion, which is far more terrifying than Dongshengzhou and Xiwangzhou, finally unfolded in Nanhezhou.
After tens of thousands of years, the horror of the dead world was once again revealed in front of these monks in the Yuan world.
At this time, all sects began to let go of their selfishness and began to jointly resist the death world.
of course.
These are those decent sects or demonic sects with mountain gates.
This has nothing to do with the undercurrents in the dark.
On the contrary, many undercurrents in Nanhezhou are still happy that Nanhezhou has finally ushered in the same opportunities as Xiwangzhou and Dongshengzhou.
Fortunately, Li Qingyu was decisive enough to take action directly, if not for Li Qingyu leading the masters of the Immortal League to sit in Nanhezhou.
Under this invasion of the dead world, the flames of war instantly covered the entire South Hezhou.
Relying on the underground bases extending in all directions deep underground, the dead world continuously launched attacks to the ground.
The human race uses each sect as a small base, and the Taiyi faction serves as the central command center and support center to resist the big net.
At this time, the barren land of Nanhezhou became the safest place because of the [Liujue Town Barren Formation].
Of course, even with the masters of the Immortal League led by Li Qingyu, they are still not good enough in front of the twelve high-ranking gods.
If it weren't for the quick transfer of six elders from Xiwangzhou and Dongshengzhou, the entire Nanhezhou would really be quickly occupied by the dead world.
Once even the ground is occupied by the Death Realm, and the entire South Hezhou becomes the base of the Death Realm, then the situation in the Yuan Realm may be in trouble.
Fortunately, everything was neither too good nor too bad. Li Qingyu's cautious move to go to Nan Hezhou in person gave Nan Hezhou time to breathe and resist.
However, after this surprise battle from the realm of the dead turned into a protracted war, the original peace of Nanhezhou was naturally gone.
At this time, all the monks in Nanhezhou finally felt the cruelty of the invasion of the dead world tens of thousands of years ago.
Every day, countless monks die.
Each sect is like a small boat in the ocean facing huge waves.
Many small forces have also begun to look for their own support.
Some are attached to various sects, while others are beginning to gather together consciously.
These newly gathered forces also erupted with a lot of light in this invasion of the dead world.
However, no matter how dazzling these emerging forces erupted, they were not as good as the Tiannan faction.
In this invasion from the dead world, the most dazzling one on Nanhezhou is undoubtedly the Tiannan faction.
In this regard, even the Taiyi Sect, a first-class sect, cannot compare with it.
But this time the Tiannan faction is the most dazzling, it is the Yin epidemic peak in the Tiannan faction.
Although there are only two elders Wei Tianhong and her disciple Li Hanning in Yinyan Peak, which is controlled by the second elder Wei Tianhong of Tiannan Sect.
However, the various poisons developed against Yin Beasts shocked the entire Nanhezhou.
No.
should say.
The entire Yuan Realm was shaken by the poison of the Yin Epidemic Peak, which was only aimed at Yin Beasts.
When other sects are still using the common methods of monks such as various spells, magic tools, magic weapons, mountain protection formations, various formations, etc., to deal with these yin beasts.
On the Tiannan faction's side, because of the research results of the Yin Epidemic Peak, it seemed a bit child's play to resist these Yin beasts.
Bottles of highly poisonous powder aimed at Yin Beasts were continuously sent out in the Yin Epidemic Peak.
For the disciples of the Tiannan Sect, holding these would not do anything to them, but it would be extremely poisonous medicine for those Yin beasts.
When resisting the tide of Yin Beasts, it can be said that one kill is a large area. Pieces of Yin Beasts are turned into fly ash in the dispersion of these highly poisonous drugs.
Wei Tianhong, the second elder of the Tiannan Sect, also became famous after this battle, not only in Nanhezhou, but also in the entire Yuan Realm.
Although the offensive in the barren lands of Dongshengzhou and Xiwangzhou has been strengthened a lot, after all, the limitations of the power of the world's barriers are there.
Without the blessing of formations like Nan Hezhou's side, it is impossible to form an offensive like Nan Hezhou's.
Therefore, the situation in Dongshengzhou and Xiwangzhou quickly stabilized, forming a stalemate and protracted war.
And Nanhezhou began to gather most of the Yuanjie elite power.
It began to launch a strong counterattack against the dead world, which became the main battlefield for the world's invasion of the metaverse this time.
In this time of the invasion of the dead world.
It's not just that many strong men of the older generation ended their days of retreat and retreated to join the battlefield and regain their prestige.
Many younger monks.
It was also during this invasion of the dead world that he emerged and made his own reputation.
And on the side of Xianmeng, in order to inspire these young monks to fight bravely.
It also set up major lists to rank these new generation monks who have become famous.
Of course, these major lists are not just endowed with fame.
Xianmeng also took out a lot of genuine cultivation resources as rewards.
What can make Xianmeng take action is naturally the cultivation resources of the level of natural materials and earthly treasures.
Usually, this level of cultivation resources rarely falls on the heads of the younger generation of monks.
They are all monks of the older generation, and most of them enjoy it by virtue of their strength and status.
But this time, Xianmeng took these rare treasures of the younger generation monks as rewards for being listed on the major rankings.
That would be like giving these young monks blood.
This suddenly made some low-key masters of the previous generation who didn't pay much attention to reputation, finally became interested, and began to become active without hiding their clumsiness...
...
at the same time.
In the dead world, Gu Yun looked at Ye Ying with a serious expression.
"Ma'am, have you really decided?"
Gu Yun was unwilling to support Ye Ying's idea just now, but he couldn't bear to reject Ye Ying.
"Yes, husband. I know that my decision this time is a little impulsive, but this is really what I want to do most in my heart."
At this time, Yeying also had a hesitant look on her face, but this hesitation came from the fact that she saw Gu Yun's unwillingness in his heart.
"Actually, just leave it to me to fight the country. You really don't have to worry about it too much."
At this time, Gu Yun felt a little regretful that he had told Yeying everything about the current situation, which made Yeying suddenly come up with such an idea.
He doesn't mind Ye Ying doing something he wants to do.
But the premise is that Gu Yun will not mind if the safety of Yeying can be ensured.
But under the current situation, what Yeying wants to do is quite risky.
"Husband, since this realm of death is the enemy of our husband and wife, sooner or later we will confront the entire realm of death.
Whether we want to or not, this is unavoidable.
That being the case, it is better to take the initiative to attack and weaken the enemy's power in advance. "
Although Gu Yun knew what Ye Ying said was reasonable, he couldn't help but frowned and said:
"But the risk is too great. One is not good. If something happens to you, what should I do?"
Seeing Gu Yun's furrowed brows, and hearing Gu Yun's words of worrying about herself, Ye Ying became more determined.
However, the expression on her face softened, and her body even stuck to Gu Yun's body.
"Just promise me, okay~?"
This whining sound was rarely seen in Yeying, and Gu Yun was also stunned for a moment.
"Is it okay~?"
Seeing that the trick he suddenly used seemed to have some effect, Ye Ying immediately worked harder.
Looking at his wife's appearance, Gu Yun is also one head and two big.
Who can stand this? !
Who can bear this? !
It's just the rationality in Gu Yun's heart that made him open his mouth seriously and prepare to refuse.
But before he could say anything, after following Gu Yun for so long, seeing his expression, Ye Ying immediately knew that something was going to go wrong.
But Gu Yun was not allowed to say his decision, and he just said it straight away.
After a long verbal dispute.
"Husband, don't talk yet."
Seeing the soft and coquettish Ye Ying lying on his body, how could Gu Yun hold back at this time? !
If you have any decision, let's talk after eating!
After everything is calm.
Ye Ying leaned her small face on Gu Yun's chest, and slowly continued to speak to Gu Yun:
"Husband, promise me, okay?"
Gu Yun: "..."
At this time, Gu Yuan still didn't understand.
Yeying was so crazy just now, all to make himself agree to her?
Thinking of the various novel postures just now, Gu Yun swallowed the words of refusal on his lips.
This is wiped out, and after entering the state of a sage, he turns his face and refuses to recognize anyone...
This seems a little bad?
"Husband~!"
Seeing Gu Yun's hesitant look, Ye Ying said softly again.
"Okay... everything is up to you!"
Got it!How can this be rejected? !Gu Yun really couldn't continue to refuse.
As for those dangers, I can only do my best to help.
"Hee~ Thank you husband!"
Hearing that Gu Yun finally stopped refusing, Ye Ying immediately smiled.
Looking at Ye Ying's overjoyed look, he also looked a little bit tricky.
Gu Yun couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
At the same time, the bottom of my heart became angry again, turned my head again, and kissed Ye Ying's smiling mouth directly.
Alas, toil!
...
...
"Lord."
In the underground karst cave, Amon was distracted and came to Gu Yun who was sitting quietly, showing great respect.
"In the dead world, we cannot rely solely on Luo Suyuan, we must develop our own forces.
Based on your power, we can also start the second step of the plan while the twelve high-ranking gods are focusing their energy on Nanhezhou. "
Gu Yun looked calm.
Ye Ying's idea is actually very simple, that is to establish his own power in the dead world.
This idea actually coincides with Gu Yun's.
This was originally the second step in the plan drawn up by Gu Yun and Amon.
But originally Gu Yun didn't want to start at this time.
After all, the battle with the Metaverse has just begun, and it has not entered the later stage of the war.
Most of the strength of the Dead Realm was transferred to the Yuan Realm, and it was not consumed in the battle between the two realms.
So at this time, if the second step of planning is carried out, it is obviously a bit too early.
but.
No matter how much difficulty will be added and how much loss will be caused if the plan is advanced.
Compared to his wife, Ye Ying, it was naturally worthless.
"Master, isn't it a bit too fast for the second step of the plan?"
Hearing Gu Yun's order, Amon asked slightly hesitantly.
"Are you questioning my decision?"
Gu Yun didn't explain anything, but calmly set his eyes on Amon.
And when Amon looked at Gu Yun's extremely calm eyes, he couldn't help trembling all over, and hurriedly said:
"My lord misunderstood, I just thought it was too early, so I just asked casually.
But this is just my own humble opinion, I'm sure I don't think far ahead than you.
Now that the Lord has ordered it, Amon will naturally execute it immediately. "
Seeing Amon anxiously explaining, Gu Yun was noncommittal, but looked at it calmly.
And Amon didn't know what to continue explaining for a while, so he could only stand there anxiously, all the eyeballs were looking at Gu Yun sincerely, for fear that Gu Yun would not see what was in those eyeballs. sincere.
"Okay, I have my own arrangements.
In the dead world, I will also arrange one of my staff to cooperate with you, and I will personally participate in the whole process of this second step of the plan.
But I still have a lot of things to deal with in the living world, so it is impossible to stay in the dead world forever. "
The expression on Gu Yun's face was calm and unwavering, as if everything had been planned long ago and not just a temporary idea.

Fortunately, everything was neither too good nor too bad. Li Qingyu's cautious move to go to Nan Hezhou in person gave Nan Hezhou time to breathe and resist.
However, after this surprise battle from the realm of the dead turned into a protracted war, the original peace of Nanhezhou was naturally gone.
At this time, all the monks in Nanhezhou finally felt the cruelty of the invasion of the dead world tens of thousands of years ago.

In the dead world, Gu Yun looked at Ye Ying with a serious expression.
"Ma'am, have you really decided?"

Ye Ying's idea is actually very simple, that is to establish his own power in the dead world.

This was originally the second step in the plan drawn up by Gu Yun and Amon.

The expression on Gu Yun's face was calm and unwavering, as if everything had been planned long ago and not just a temporary idea.
