Qinghe Immortal Clan.

Witnessing this somewhat shocking scene, Song Qingming and others who were not far away cast praiseworthy glances at Li Xuanyi who had just displayed his supernatural power.

Unexpectedly, in an unfavorable situation where his side was weak and the monsters were strong, Li Xuanyi could find an opportunity to kill a Jindan Monster King on the opposite side and be the first to make military achievements for his human cultivators.

This action really boosted the morale of everyone who was still fighting hard with the monsters.

After Li Xuanyi killed the "Black Bull Demon King", she quickly took out the inner elixir of her life from the demon king's body, and then intensified the siege of another demon king in the middle stage of the golden elixir who was fighting with her "corpse puppet".

This "Fire Fox Demon King" in the middle Jindan stage is almost as powerful as the "White Wolf Demon King" who had fought with Li Xuanyi in the "Jinshanfang" before. He is not a very powerful demon king in the middle Jindan stage.

At this moment, the "Black Bull Demon King" had already fallen, and the "Fire Fox Demon King" was facing the siege of Li Xuanyi and a "corpse puppet" in the middle stage of the Golden Core alone. He instantly fell into a disadvantage and was beaten back step by step. He hurriedly asked for help from other demon kings on the side.

Seeing this, the monsters immediately sent out a powerful "Flame Tiger Demon King" to support, which curbed Li Xuanyi's offensive momentum.

However, as a result, the pressure on the other human monks who were at a disadvantage was immediately reduced, and both sides regained control of the situation on the battlefield.

This battle between tens of thousands of human cultivators and monsters lasted from afternoon to dusk. The sound of fighting never stopped on the battlefield until both sides saw that it was getting dark and sounded the retreat. The battlefield gradually became quiet.

Outside "Guiyunfang", thousands of corpses were left, and the blood had dyed the entire land red. The monks standing on the city wall of the market town had long since calmed down and were accustomed to such bloody scenes.

As the sky gradually darkened, Song Qingming returned to his cave residence and handed a high-level healing pill that he had just received from the treasury of the market town to Huang Siyuan. He then walked out of the cave and came to where Song Qingyu was nearby.

"Qingyu, how is Yuanhao's injury? Have you gotten anything to heal him?"

Hearing Song Qingming's slightly anxious question, Song Qingyu, who had just returned to the cave, nodded and responded:
"Don't worry, Brother Qi! I have checked his injuries. They are only physical injuries, and his meridians are not damaged. I have also taken him to get healing pills. He should be fine after recuperating for a while!"

After hearing Song Qingyu's answer, Song Qingming finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slightly.

"That's good. I'll tell Yuan Hao to stay in the cave for retreat first. There's no need to fight again tomorrow. I'll go and say hello to Junior Sister Xu for him.

We have already suffered heavy losses today, and tomorrow's battle may be even more dangerous. Xuan Ting and the others must also remind everyone to pay more attention to their own safety tomorrow. They are all talented practitioners among the younger generations of the family, and they must not be killed here."

To support the "Guiyunfang" operation this time, the Song family sent many cultivators, and several family foundation-building elders such as Song Yuanhao also came here.

In the battle that just ended during the day, more than a dozen cultivators of the Song family were killed or injured, and even Huang Siyuan and Song Yuanhao were injured in the battle.

Huang Siyuan's condition was slightly better, as Song Qingming was taking care of her, but her vitality was damaged. Song Yuanhao was more seriously injured, as he was pierced in the abdomen by a demon beast at the peak of the foundation-building stage, and his intestines were almost exposed on the spot.

Fortunately, he was smart enough to return to the market town to recuperate in time, thus preventing his injuries from getting worse.

Although the damage to the foundation-building cultivator's body was not a very serious injury and he would recover quickly after taking healing pills, but for the sake of safety, Song Qingming decided not to let Song Yuanhao continue to participate in tomorrow's battle.

Song Yuanhao is naturally gifted, and his cultivation is now close to the late stage of foundation building. He has a great chance of forming a pill in the future. If he rashly joins the battle and causes his injuries to worsen, it may affect his future path of cultivation. If this happens, the gain will outweigh the loss.

Previously, Song Yuanli was seriously injured in the battle of "Jinshanfang" and it is still unknown when he will recover. Song Qingming is now really worried about Song Yuanhao's safety.

If these talented younger generations were to miss out on their careers due to the war, the family would likely face a talent gap, which would be extremely detrimental to the future development of the Song family.

Seeing that Song Qingming was so worried about Song Yuanhao's injury, Song Qingyu recalled the tribesmen who were injured and died in the "Jinshanfang" before, and couldn't help but sighed:

"Seventh brother, it's all my fault for not taking good care of Yuanli and Changlin. Many of our clansmen died tragically at the hands of monsters, and I could only watch helplessly. If I were stronger and could repel the monsters' attacks earlier, perhaps they would have a chance to survive."

“Qing Yu, everyone has their own destiny. Some things are already predetermined by God. Although you and I are cultivators, we cannot change the fate of everyone around us. Don’t blame yourself for this.

I have served as the clan leader for many years. I have watched my sixth uncle, thirteenth uncle, eldest brother, and second sister leave me one after another. I also hope that they can all build their foundations, form their elixirs successfully, and move forward with us.

But on the path of cultivation, how can everything go smoothly as planned? Many things cannot be changed just because we want to. Many people may leave us in the future, but these will not stop you and me from protecting our family and moving forward.

I firmly believe that as long as we are still here, the family will gradually prosper and grow stronger. The sacrifices of our ancestors from generation to generation are worth it as long as they can bring a better cultivation environment to the descendants of the family."

"Seventh Brother! I know that what you said is reasonable, but every time I think of Changlin and the others, I always feel bad. This once-in-a-century monster riot is getting more and more dangerous. I don't know if the family can survive safely in the future."

When Song Qingyu said this, he couldn't help but shed a few tears that had been accumulating in his heart for a long time.

Even though he was strong enough in front of other people, Song Qingyu was always unable to fully control his emotions when facing his brother Song Qingming.

Seeing this, Song Qingming took the initiative to step forward and gently supported her shoulders, saying comfortingly: "Don't worry! I'm here, these bad things will eventually pass!"

They were born in the turbulent world of immortal cultivation in the Floating Cloud Mountains. The Song family could not avoid the chaos caused by monsters and beasts after all. Both Song Qingyu and Song Qingming were very clear about this.

The world of immortal cultivation in the Floating Cloud Mountains is plagued by monsters and beasts once every hundred years. This is the third monster and beast riot that Song Qingming has encountered since he started practicing Taoism for more than two hundred years.

Although the process of the first two monster rebellions had some twists and turns and many members of the clan were sacrificed, he was able to lead the family through this once-in-a-century disaster without any danger in the end.

However, this time's monster riot was obviously more dangerous than the previous two times. The battle with the monsters had lasted for more than half a year. To be honest, Song Qingming was never completely sure whether his family could successfully survive this disaster, and he was often worried about it.

Although Li Xuanyi's unexpected appearance had helped Song Qingyu and the others to break the siege of "Jinshanfang", the northeastern area of ​​Weiguo ruled by the Song family is currently relatively safe and no other dangerous situations have occurred.

However, in the entire northern battlefield of Weiguo, the army of monsters still held a great advantage, and both "Tuoyun Mountain" and "Tiexian Fort" had been lost.

If the sect cannot defend "Guiyunfang", the most important line of defense in the north of Wei State, then the army of monsters will march straight in and soon sweep across the entire northern Wei State. Qinghe County, where the Song family is located, will certainly not be spared.

By then, the entire Funiu Mountain ancestral vein will fall into the hands of the army of monsters. Even if the Song family can withdraw the cultivators on the mountain, it will be difficult to take away all the mortals at the foot of the mountain.

If all the mortal members of the family were killed in the turmoil, the future development of the Song family would inevitably be deeply affected, and it would probably be difficult for them to recover within a hundred years.

In addition, the family’s three-level sacred mountains as well as the mines and markets that they have operated for many years will all be lost.

Once the Song family loses the many industries on which they depend for survival, what will happen to their future and how to maintain the livelihoods of so many family members will be huge problems for the family.

"By the way! Seventh brother, how is my sister-in-law doing?" After being sad for a while, Song Qingyu remembered Huang Siyuan's injuries and hurriedly asked Song Qingming.

Hearing this, Song Qingming nodded and replied, "Siyuan's vitality was only slightly damaged, it's nothing serious. She has taken the healing pill and will be almost fully recovered tomorrow!

Qingyu, the monster army didn't gain much advantage today, and tomorrow's battle will probably be even more dangerous, so you have to be more careful and try not to stay too far away from me."

During the daytime battle, although the fighting among these Jindan cultivators was fierce, neither side gained much advantage, and there were not many casualties.

The monster side lost a "Black Bull Monster King". On the human cultivator side, except for Huang Siyuan who was slightly injured, Chu Fengping, Hu Qingyun and several others also suffered injuries of varying degrees.

Among them, Hu Qingyun was the most seriously injured. One of his arms was torn off by the demon king. He barely managed to escape back to the mountain protection formation and saved his life. He could no longer take part in the next battle.

However, Li Xuanyi's performance surprised everyone in the "Xiaoyao Sect". After the battle, the sect leader Bai Yuxian even came to congratulate him in person and gave Li Xuanyi many spiritual objects as rewards.

After a night's rest, at dawn the next morning, violent roars were heard outside again, and the army of monsters attacked the market formation again.

The human race wants to hold on and wait for help, and the demon race is also aware of this situation. If the war is delayed too long, the "Xiaoyao Sect" may ask for more reinforcements, which will only be more disadvantageous to them.

Therefore, the "Black Dragon Demon King" and the "Red Cloud Demon King" knew very well in their hearts that now was the best time to conquer the "Guiyunfang".

"My fellow Taoists, the reinforcements from the Tianji Sect are on the way. We only need to hold out for two more days at most, and then we can counterattack the monster army and resolve the current predicament of Guiyunfang. I hope that you can work together to help our sect resist the attack of the monster army."

After Jiandan boosted the morale before the battle, just like yesterday, Li Mufeng, Bai Yuxian and others took the lead in stepping forward to contain the two Nascent Soul Demon Kings, Mo Long and Chi Yun, in the opponent's monster army.

Song Qingming and other Jindan cultivators rushed out of the formation and fought with the other demon king army. The low-level cultivators in the foundation building and Qi refining stages below also quickly fought with the demon beast army. The opponents of both sides were roughly the same as yesterday. However, this time, the demon beasts were obviously paying attention to Li Xuanyi, a Jindan mid-stage cultivator with some strength, and sent a powerful Jindan late-stage demon king to deal with her, who was only at the fifth level of Jindan.

Although Li Xuanyi's fighting ability is strong, his cultivation is only at the peak of the fifth level of the Golden Core, and the gap compared to his opponent is very obvious.

At this time, facing a great demon king in the late Jindan stage, even with the assistance of a "corpse puppet" in the middle Jindan stage, she still had a hard time and could only cope with it barely. She gradually fell into a disadvantage in the battle and it was not as easy as yesterday.

Song Qingming, like before, was fighting against the "Giant Elephant Demon King" with all his strength while taking care of Huang Siyuan, who was weaker near the battlefield.

Only Song Qingyu had a relatively easy fight. Facing a middle-stage Jindan demon king whose cultivation was obviously higher than his own, Song Qingyu was not suppressed by the demon king. Instead, he was able to restrain his opponent with his skills and even had the upper hand after a fierce battle.

Although the opponents of these Jindan cultivators were not much different from yesterday, after the battle started this time, the many demon kings on the monster side obviously fought much more desperately than before.

After fighting for just over half an hour, Zhao Menglian, who was responsible for restraining a great demon king in the late Jindan stage of the other side, was slapped away by a claw of his opponent. He vomited blood on the spot and retreated back to the market formation with injuries.

Zhao Menglian was accidentally injured during the evacuation of "Iron Immortal Fort" before. The old injury has not yet fully healed, and this time she has a new injury. The situation is really not optimistic.

However, now is the critical moment for the sect, and they, the elders of the sect, must not withdraw from the battle at will and pass the pressure on the battlefield to others.

Even though Zhao Menglian was seriously injured, after a short rest, she had no choice but to fly out of the mountain protection formation and continue to restrain her opponent.

The same was true for other elders of the Xiaoyao Sect. Chu Fengping and Guangling Zhenren both suffered a lot of injuries from the battle yesterday. Although they were suppressed by their opponents as soon as they entered the field, they still gritted their teeth and insisted on staying on the battlefield.

Even if they are unable to confront their opponents head-on, they must find ways to contain their opponents as much as possible, not allowing these demon kings too many opportunities to besiege other teammates and attack the market formation behind them.

The battle among the Jindan cultivators below was becoming more and more intense, and the same was true for the Yuanying cultivators who were fighting above.

The "Red Cloud Demon King", who had been restrained by Bai Yuxian and his companions for a whole day yesterday, was already feeling pent up in anger when he fought again today. He no longer had the arrogance and contempt of yesterday.

In this fight, the "Red Cloud Demon Emperor" used his magical powers with all his strength, which brought considerable pressure to the "Xiaoyao Sect" people from the very beginning.

Upon seeing this, Bai Yuxian and the others cast spells with all their might, activating the Vajra phantom created by the "Vajra Sky Array" to resist the opponent's fierce attack.

The "Vajra Sky Net Formation" is a treasure left by the first generation ancestor of the "Xiaoyao Sect" in the sect. When activated by four late Jindan cultivators, it can compete with an ordinary Yuanying cultivator.

Over the thousands of years since its establishment, the "Xiaoyao Sect" has relied on this formation to survive several sect crises. This time, facing such a dangerous monster riot, Bai Yuxian and his companions are well aware of the importance of restraining the "Red Cloud Demon Emperor" in this battle.

As for the low-level monsters or Jindan monster kings fighting below, even if the human cultivators are at a disadvantage and some monsters attack the mountain protection formation, it will be difficult to break through the formation in a short time and will not have much impact on the entire battle situation.

But if they fail to restrain the opponent in front of them, the "Red Cloud Demon King", and let this Nascent Soul Demon King be free, the impact on the battlefield below will be unimaginable, and it is possible that the demon beasts will win the entire battle in a short period of time.

Once "Guiyunfang" falls into the hands of the enemy, all the huge costs and sacrifices paid by the sect in the past six months will be wasted.

Therefore, facing the fierce attack of the "Red Cloud Demon Emperor", Bai Yuxian and the others felt extremely pressured at the moment. They could only try their best to restrain the opponent and not let the "Red Cloud Demon Emperor" have the chance to leave the battlefield.

After the two sides fought fiercely for more than an hour, seeing that they still could not defeat the opponent and could not get rid of the entanglement of the "Vajra Sky Net Formation", the "Red Cloud Demon Emperor" became a little anxious.

Before the war, the "Molong Demon King" had already told him that the demon army was now powerful and it was the best time to capture "Guiyunfang", and he must find a way to break the situation from his side as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if the time is delayed too long and the "Xiaoyao Sect" has to wait for reinforcements from other places, the power between the two sides will soon be equalized. At that time, it will not be as easy to capture "Guiyunfang" as it is now.

Seeing that the Vajra phantom that he had just forced back stopped again under the control of Bai Yuxian and others and attacked him quickly, a trace of anger flashed in the eyes of "Red Cloud Demon Emperor".

"Humph! I don't have time to continue pestering you here, so you guys just stay here for now!"

Facing the desperate entanglement of Bai Yuxian and others, the "Red Cloud Demon Emperor" muttered to himself, and a hint of decisiveness appeared on his face.

When the Vajra phantom approached, the "Red Cloud Demon King" suddenly raised his hand and sacrificed two black and white spherical magic weapons. Under his control, the magic weapons spun rapidly, attracting the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

As soon as the Vajra phantom controlled by Bai Yuxian and others arrived next to the "Red Cloud Demon Emperor", it was sucked in by the huge suction force formed by the black and white spherical magic weapon, and even their bodies were tightly sucked in by this magic weapon.

"Haha! I borrowed these Liangyi Tianxing beads from Brother Molong today to prepare them for you. Please stay here for a while."

Seeing that Bai Yuxian and others were trying their best to activate the "Vajra Sky Net Formation" but were unable to get rid of the huge suction of the "Liang Yi Sky Star Pearl" for a while, the "Chi Yun Demon Emperor" showed a smug smile on his face.

Although he had a slight advantage in the battle yesterday, the "Red Cloud Demon King" still found it difficult to break free from the entanglement of Bai Yuxian and his men.

Therefore, after returning, he discussed with the "Molong Demon King" and borrowed the precious treasure "Liangyi Tianxing Pearl" from him to deal with the "Vajra Tianluo Formation" of Bai Yuxian and others.

When Bai Yuxian and others fought with the "Red Cloud Demon Emperor" yesterday, they did not see him use this magic weapon, so they were a little careless during the battle just now, and were trapped in place by the "Red Cloud Demon Emperor" with the "Liang Yi Tian Xing Pearl".

"Not good! Find a way to escape quickly, otherwise once the Scarlet Cloud Demon King attacks the mountain protection formation, the mountain protection formation will not be able to hold out for long."

Seeing the "Red Cloud Demon King" laugh with a smug look on his face, then turn around and flee downwards, Bai Yuxian and the others suddenly became extremely anxious.

However, this magic weapon "Liang Yi Tian Xing Zhu" is a treasured treasure of the "Black Dragon Demon King".

Once an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator is trapped by this treasure, it will be difficult for him to break free in a short period of time. Even though Bai Yuxian and his companions tried their best to control the "Vajra Sky Net Formation", they were still unable to move at all and could only watch the "Red Cloud Demon King" leave triumphantly.

After arriving above the battlefield below, the "Red Cloud Demon King" ignored the people who were fighting and went directly to the sky above the "Guiyunfang" mountain protection formation.

The serious-looking "Red Cloud Demon King" stretched out his hands to gather a large amount of magic power, and directly attacked the mountain protection formation below with all his might. Soon, the already fragile mountain protection formation began to tremble violently.

"boom!"

The loud roar coming from the mountain protection formation behind them soon alarmed the many cultivators and monster armies that were fighting, and everyone's eyes involuntarily looked towards the sky above the mountain protection formation.

"It's the Scarlet Cloud Demon King. Damn, the mountain protection formation can't hold on any longer!"

Seeing the figure of "Red Cloud Demon King" in the distance, Song Qingming and others' faces changed, revealing a bit of shock. They did not expect that this Nascent Soul Demon King had actually gotten rid of the entanglement of the "Vajra Sky Net Array" and came to attack the market city's mountain protection array.

The "Guiyunfang" mountain protection formation has become very fragile after being continuously attacked by the army of monsters in recent days, and its power is only 30% to 40% left.

Just now, with just one strike from the "Red Cloud Demon King", the spiritual light of the market formation has dimmed a lot. If the opponent is allowed to attack so recklessly, the formation will probably collapse in a quarter of an hour at most.

Once the mountain protection formation is broken by the "Red Cloud Demon King", the "Xiaoyao Sect" will be defenseless, and then the "Guiyunfang" will inevitably fall into the hands of the monster quickly.

With the support of the "Guiyunfang" mountain protection formation, the human cultivators had a hard time fighting. If they were to fight against a powerful army of monsters in the wild, the outcome of the war could be imagined. The human race would have no chance of winning.

Seeing the figure of the "Red Cloud Demon King" suddenly appear in the sky above their heads and attack the mountain protection formation, many monks in the market who were controlling the city defense magic weapons hurriedly changed the direction of their attack and launched an attack towards the "Red Cloud Demon King" in the sky, trying to stop the other party from attacking the mountain protection formation.

However, these second- and third-level "Flying Cloud Crossbows" and "Lingguang Giant Cannons" are still somewhat effective against ordinary monsters and demon kings. They pale in comparison to the powerful Nascent Soul Demon King "Chiyun Demon King".

The "Red Cloud Demon King" who was standing in place faced the attacks that were coming at him. He just raised his hand and released a ray of protective spiritual light, which easily resisted them. In his hands, a powerful ball of magic power condensed again.

"Demon King, stop being so arrogant!"

Just as the "Red Cloud Demon Emperor" was about to attack the mountain protection formation below again, a figure suddenly rushed out from the mountain protection formation below and came in front of the "Red Cloud Demon Emperor" under the cover of attacks from all sides.

This person is none other than Master Guangling, who had just fought with the demon king and was defeated, and had to retreat to the mountain protection formation to rest in a somewhat embarrassed manner. (End of this chapter)
