Qinghe Immortal Clan.

"Jinyu Mountain" in the Floating Cloud Mountains.

The "Black Dragon Demon King" wearing a black robe was sitting in a hall on the top of the mountain, looking at a letter in his hand with a serious expression.

At the bottom of the hall, a dozen demon kings including the "Golden Tiger Demon King" stood together, carefully looking at the "Black Dragon Demon King" above them without daring to make a sound.

After a while, the "Black Dragon Demon King" raised his head and looked seriously at the "Golden Tiger Demon King" standing in the front.

"Jin Hu, when you arrived at Huyang Mountain, was it really attacked by human cultivators?"

Upon hearing this, the "Golden Tiger Demon King" immediately replied: "Reporting to the ancestor, when I arrived there, I did not see any human cultivators with my own eyes.

However, Huyang Mountain has indeed been mobilizing manpower, and I also saw several fellow Taoists injured, so it is certain that there is indeed a battle going on nearby."

"It's strange. Why are the fighting so intense in the west recently? Even Huyang Mountain has a battle. Could it be that they went south again and angered the people of Wanling Sect?"

After confirming his doubts from the "Golden Tiger Demon King", the "Black Dragon Demon King" pondered for a moment in confusion, and then put away the letter in his hand.

"Bai Long, what's the current situation at Guiyunfang? Is there any unusual movement in Xiaoyao Sect?"

"Reporting to the ancestor, Guiyunfang has remained the same for the past six months. Xiaoyao Sect has indeed been mobilizing supplies there, but the human cultivators have not gone north on a large scale.

I guess they are still gathering strength, waiting for an opportunity to attack us from the north, but it is hard to tell when they will take action for the time being."

Hearing the question from the "Black Dragon Demon King", the "White Dragon Demon King" standing next to the "Golden Tiger Demon King" immediately responded, and there seemed to be some worry in his words.

Seeing what the other party was thinking, the Demon King Molong immediately replied calmly, “It’s okay. Although we didn’t get reinforcements from Huyang Mountain this time, I have already negotiated with Chiyun Mountain and Baibi Peak.

As long as the Xiaoyao Sect dares to go north, the three of us can then join forces to fight the enemy and we don't have to be afraid of each other.

For tens of thousands of years, the Floating Cloud Mountains have been the domain of our demon race. Even if the human cultivators can be proud for a while, they will not get any benefits from us.

Bailong, you have been complaining about the lack of manpower. I will send Jinhu to help you. With him helping you guard Baiyun Valley, and the demonic wind formation I personally set up, I think this time it will be foolproof!"

"Ah! Brother Jinhu is the ancestor's capable general. How dare I snatch him from the ancestor? I hope the ancestor can take back his order."

Ever since the "Black Dragon Demon Emperor" occupied Jinyu Mountain, almost all the demons here knew that the "Golden Tiger Demon King" was the right-hand man of the Nascent Soul ancestor in front of them.

The "White Dragon Demon King" was not very favored in Jinyu Mountain, and often had to look at the face of the Golden Tiger Demon King. He could only have his own ideas when he returned to Baiyun Valley where he was stationed.

Upon hearing that the "Black Dragon Demon King" was going to send the Golden Tiger Demon King to help him, the "White Dragon Demon King" immediately looked embarrassed and hurriedly opened his mouth to refuse the other party's kindness.

However, the "Molong Demon King", who had already had this intention, would not allow the other party to refuse, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Alas! Baiyun Valley is of great importance and must not be lost.

You should not be in a hurry to refuse. With the help of Jin Hu, the defense line over there will definitely be strengthened. Even if Xiaoyao Sect comes in full force in the future, they will not be able to break through Baiyun Valley in a short time.

This time is different from the past. We are fighting at our own doorstep. We are the ones occupying the land. If the human cultivators dare to come, we will make sure they never return."

"Old Ancestor is so powerful. This time we will make sure those hateful human cultivators know our strengths and weaknesses!"

Seeing the "Black Dragon Demon King" smiling with confidence, the "Golden Tiger Demon King" who had followed him for many years hurriedly took the lead and spoke loudly to flatter him.

Upon seeing this, the other demon kings standing in the hall immediately followed suit and spoke loudly, fearing that their voices would not be heard by the "Black Dragon Demon King".

"The ancestor is mighty!"
-
Wei State, Xiaoyao Sect's "Guyang Mountain".

Early in the morning of that day, outside the Xiaoyao Palace on the "Guyang Mountain", more than a dozen beams of light flew in one after another and directly entered the palace.

As time approached noon, another white light flew from afar and landed outside the hall, turning into a middle-aged man in white.

Although the man in white looked a little fat, he walked very flexibly. After landing, he walked directly into the hall as fast as the wind.

After the man in white entered the hall, he saw from afar a dozen figures sitting on both sides of the hall. He hurriedly walked over and bowed to everyone.

"All the senior brothers and sisters are here. Zhang is here to greet you!"

"Haha! Junior Brother Zhang, how come you are the last one to arrive today? Junior Brother Song and his companions are not closer than you even though they came from Mount Funiushan. Why are you always the last one to arrive?

Junior brother, you can't be reluctant to leave your lovely wife at home, so you always leave a step later than others!"

“Brother Jin, you are joking. I did have a long way to go, and my travel tool was not as good as Brother Song’s Phantom Boat, so I was just a little slower.

If I can get a chance someday and buy a third-grade high-quality flying boat, I will definitely not be slower than Senior Brother Song."

Hearing Jin Ziyuan's laughter, Zhang Tieyang didn't take it too seriously. He smiled and explained, then sat down on a chair next to him.

"You have good luck, but you didn't use it in a useful way. All of it fell on beauties. If you put all your skills in marrying a wife and taking concubines into cultivation, I think your current cultivation level would not be worse than Junior Brother Song's."

"Haha! This..."

Just as Jin Ziyuan and Zhang Tieyang were chatting and laughing, two figures suddenly flashed past the entrance of the hall and walked in. They were the two Nascent Soul Grand Elders of the Xiaoyao Sect, Li Mufeng and Bai Yuxian.

"Welcome to the Supreme Elder!"

After seeing Li Mufeng and the other person, the dozen or so Jindan elders of the sect present hurriedly stood up and bowed to them together.

The two nodded slightly and walked to the top of the hall and sat down. Li Mufeng waved to the people who were still bowing and said, "No need to be polite. Everyone, please sit down first!"

After everyone sat down, Li Mufeng put away the smile on his face, became a little more serious, and then continued in a soft voice:
"I have sent a message to invite all of you here today because of the sect's future development plan. I think you should have guessed something in your mind!
The demon race has bullied our human cultivators for tens of thousands of years. Every hundred years, they would go south to massacre our human cultivators and ordinary mortals.

Now that Junior Sister Bai has achieved a breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage, our sect has become capable of competing with the demon clan. We can take this opportunity to have a good fight with these ambitious demon clan members and take back the territories we have lost over the years.

Junior Sister Bai and I have already discussed with Tianji Sect, Xingchen Sect and other nearby sects, and are ready to unite with Wanling Sect and others. While the demon forces in the north have not yet reacted, we will send troops to catch them off guard and recapture the lost spiritual veins in the north.

I called you all here today to discuss with you the next military deployment."

"Over the years, our sect has always been at a disadvantage when facing the demon tribe. We can only passively take the beating and rely on formations to defend the market. Now we finally have a chance to teach them a lesson."

"Uncle Li, rest assured. No matter where you want us to fight, we will never retreat. Please just give us your orders, uncle."

"Yes! Now that Master Bai has condensed his Nascent Soul, our offense and defense with Jinyu Mountain have begun to change. It's time for these monsters to be in trouble."

"It is my duty to contribute to the sect. I am willing to be the vanguard in this northern expedition."

Upon hearing that Li Mufeng was preparing to send troops to the north to fight the demon clan, the faces of the many Jindan elders from the sects present immediately became excited and they began to request to fight.

Ever since the demon tribe from the northern border invaded the Floating Cloud Mountains tens of thousands of years ago, the human cultivators have suffered repeated defeats and have lost most of their territory.

During the hundreds of years that Li Mufeng was in charge of the "Xiaoyao Sect", it had always been at a disadvantage facing the powerful "Jinyu Mountain" in the north. Every hundred years of monster unrest, a large number of cultivators and mortals would be lost, making the entire Weiguo cultivation world miserable.

Facing the powerful enemy demon clan in the north, all cultivators in the entire "Xiaoyao Sect" want to change this passive situation.

Now that Bai Yuxian has successfully condensed his Nascent Soul, the strength of the "Xiaoyao Sect" has greatly increased. On paper, it has surpassed the "Jinyu Mountain" demon clan, and it has the confidence to fight back against the demon clan. Naturally, everyone is looking forward to the day when the sect counterattacks the north.

Before receiving the news that the sect had called for a meeting, Song Qingming had actually already guessed something in his mind. At this moment, his face was also very happy, and he took the initiative to speak up in agreement with the sect's idea of ​​marching north.

After the Song family occupied "White Lion Ridge" for several years, they have been under great pressure these years, always worried about the counterattack of the demon clan. For this reason, Song Qingyu, the Jindan ancestor, has had to stay in "White Lion Ridge" all these years and has been unable to move.

Now that the sect is going to send troops to the north, it will naturally attract the attention of the northern demon tribe again. At that time, the pressure faced by the Song family will naturally be much smaller. This is undoubtedly very beneficial to the current Song family.

It has been more than three years since Bai Yuxian broke through the Nascent Soul Realm. The entire Xiaoyao Sect has been united in the fight against the demons in the north and has been almost ready. Not only have they collected a lot of strategic materials from the surrounding countries, but they have also sent all these spiritual objects to the northern front, so that they can mobilize the monks to fight against the demons at any time.

Seeing the high morale of everyone present, Li Mufeng and Bai Yuxian were very pleased and immediately praised everyone.

"Now that the Wanling Sect in the west has already taken action to contain most of the demon clan's forces, it is a good time for us to march north. Junior Sister Bai and I have already discussed it and are preparing to send troops north in half a month to first seize the spiritual vein of Youyun Mountain."

"Going to Youyun Mountain? Uncle Li, shouldn't we attack Baiyun Valley first?"

From Weiguo to the north to "Jinyu Mountain", there are more than a dozen large and small spiritual veins of level three or above. The best of these spiritual veins have reached the upper grade of level three, which is no worse than the "Guiyunfang" controlled by the Xiaoyao Sect.

Among them, the third-grade superior spiritual vein "Baiyun Valley" is the lair of the White Dragon Demon King. It is located about 5,000 miles due north of "Guiyunfang" and is an important throat in the Floating Cloud Mountains.

As long as they control this place, the "Xiaoyao Sect" can directly occupy thousands of miles of territory in the north. Then they can attack or defend, threatening the safety of "Jinyu Mountain" further north at all times.

Although "Youyun Mountain" is also located to the north of "Guiyunfang", the spiritual vein here is lower, only level three mid-grade, and its strategic location is far inferior to "Baiyun Valley".

When they heard Li Mufeng say that the target this time was not "Baiyun Valley" but "Youyun Mountain", a hint of surprise suddenly appeared on the faces of everyone in the hall, and they looked at Li Mufeng and Bai Yuxian who were sitting at the top with some confusion.

Seeing this, Bai Yuxian, who had already expected this, immediately opened her mouth to explain to everyone:
“Baiyun Valley is definitely the target of our sect’s northern expedition this time, but we can think of it. The Black Dragon Demon King naturally knows that Baiyun Valley is not only heavily guarded by the Jinyu Mountain demon tribe, but also surrounded by the demon tribe’s miasma formation. It is not something we can capture in a short time.

Therefore, the sect decided to first remove several third-level spiritual veins around Baiyun Valley one by one to see if they could use this to lure the monsters out of Baiyun Valley.

If we can successfully avoid the demon race's miasma formation and fight them outside, we can minimize the loss of some underground monks and have a better chance of winning. "

As soon as Bai Yuxian finished speaking, Li Mufeng beside him immediately nodded in agreement:

“Junior Sister Bai is right. This is the first time in all these years that we have counterattacked the demon tribe’s territory. We need to be cautious and make sure we don’t fall into the demon tribe’s ambush.

This time it's not just our Wei State, but also our fellow Taoists in the surrounding Shangyang State, Zheng State, Xu State, Pei State and other immortal cultivation circles, who will also cooperate in sending troops to the Floating Cloud Mountains to counterattack the demon clan and regain lost territory.

I hope that you can work together with the sect this time to defeat the demon army and seize these spiritual veins that have been occupied by the demons for many years. Don't let the Taoist friends in the neighboring countries laugh at you."

"Don't worry, ancestor. We will do our best to serve the sect!"

Hearing the Zhou people below respond in unison, Li Mufeng and the other man sitting at the top were also very satisfied, and smiles appeared on their faces at the same time.

After discussion within the sect, the entire "Xiaoyao Sect" was quickly mobilized. Countless cultivators boarded the teleportation array and the sect's large flying boats and began to gather at the "Guiyunfang" on the northern front line.

This time, the "Xiaoyao Sect" went north to attack the demon clan, and also issued a call to many of its immortal cultivation families. The Song family also sent more than 800 cultivators, led by the two Jindan ancestors Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan, and came to the "Guiyunfang" in a mighty manner.

Half a month later, under the arrangement of the sect, a fleet of five large flying boats appeared above "Guiyunfang" and began to move rapidly towards the Floating Cloud Mountains in the north.

The five flying boats were loaded with more than 7,000 human cultivators, all of whom were the first batch of cultivators selected by the "Xiaoyao Sect" to march north. Most of them were elite forces who had experienced the last bloody battle in "Guiyunfang".

The leader of this northern expedition standing right in front of the flying boat is none other than Bai Yuxian, the latest Nascent Soul cultivator to advance in the immortal cultivation world of the Floating Cloud Mountains and the supreme elder of the Xiaoyao Sect.

In addition, there were nine Jindan cultivators, including Song Qingming, Huang Siyuan, Li Wutong, Chen Xuanxin, Zhao Mengling, Jin Ziyuan, Zhang Tieyang, Zhou Ziyang, and Fang Baixuan, accompanying on several flying boats.

In addition to Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan, the three elders of the Song family, Song Yuanhao, Song Xuanting, and Song Xuanfeng, as well as a dozen foundation-building cultivators from their foundation-building families, including Li Chengyue and Gao Changjin, also responded to the call and participated in the sect's northern expedition.

Gathering ten Jindan elders, one Yuanying ancestor, and more than seven thousand elite cultivators at one time is almost half of the force that the "Xiaoyao Sect" can mobilize.

The people standing on the flying boat saw such a huge force moving quickly to the north, and everyone had excitement on their faces.

Many monks who were injured in the last "Guiyunfang" battle, or whose relatives and friends were killed in the battle, were very angry with the northern monsters and wanted to find those monsters in the next battle to vent their anger.

A distance of five thousand miles is not too far for a large flying boat traveling at full speed. In less than a day, everyone arrived near the White Dragon Demon King’s lair, “Baiyun Valley”.

After arriving here, at Bai Yuxian's order, the "Xiaoyao Sect" fleet immediately began to split up.

The main force stayed behind and followed Bai Yuxian to hide hundreds of miles away from the "Baiyun Valley". A part of the people, led by Song Qingming, Huang Siyuan and other Jindan elders, boarded two large flying boats and headed straight for the "Youyun Mountain" not far away.

After another hour of travel, Song Qingming and three thousand other cultivators soon arrived at the foot of the towering "Youyun Mountain".

The one stationed on this sacred mountain is a "Barbarian Bull Demon King" in the middle stage of the Golden Core. This demon's cultivation has reached the peak of the sixth level of the Golden Core. He is also a fierce general under the "Black Dragon Demon Emperor". Last time, he followed him to the "Guyang Mountain" to stop the White Jade Fairy from forming a baby.

Although the name of "Barbarian Bull Demon King" sounds a bit wild, the demon king himself is not stupid.

Knowing that the human cultivators in the south might go north to attack "Baiyun Valley" at any time, he gave orders to the nearby low-level demon tribes early on, gathering them all at the foot of "Youyun Mountain", ready to drive these monsters to support "Baiyun Valley" at any time.

However, what the "Barbarian Bull Demon King" did not expect was that this time the human cultivators did not go straight to the "Baiyun Valley" when they headed north, but first came directly to his "Youyun Mountain".

When the "Barbarian Bull Demon King" learned that a large number of human monks had appeared at the foot of the mountain, he immediately thought to himself that something was wrong, and hurriedly used a secret method to send a message to the "White Cloud Valley" to ask for help from the White Dragon Demon King, and then began to command the monsters on the mountain to fight the enemy.

This time, in addition to Song Qingming and his wife, there were also Zhao Mengling and Zhou Ziyang, a total of four Jindan cultivators, who came to attack "Youyun Mountain". The human cultivators had an absolute advantage in terms of high-level cultivators.

However, because the "Barbarian Bull Demon King" had assembled the surrounding demon beast armies in advance, the number of low-level demon beasts on "Youyun Mountain" at this time was not inferior to that of the human cultivator army.

Just as the human cultivators surrounded "Youyun Mountain", bursts of roars were heard on the mountain. Hundreds of monsters began to attack and engage in a melee with the cultivator army.

Seeing so many low-level monsters on the mountain, Song Qingming and other Jindan cultivators standing in the air were also a little surprised.

Seeing that the number of monsters rushing down was increasing and the army of cultivators below was unable to move forward for a while, Song Qingming frowned slightly.

“There are so many monster armies gathered here, there must be a monster king in the mountain commanding them all.

Senior Sister Zhao, you and Siyuan stay here. I will go with Fellow Daoist Zhou to help clear the monsters on the mountain and force the monster king out. Once you find the monster king, stop him immediately and don't let him run away."

In the world of immortal cultivation, strength has always been respected. As the one with the highest cultivation among the four, Song Qingming was naturally entrusted with an important task by Bai Yuxian before the troops were divided, and he was fully responsible for commanding the attack on "Youyun Mountain".

After hearing Song Qingming's arrangement, Zhao Mengling and Huang Siyuan immediately nodded and flew high into the sky.

Zhou Ziyang followed Song Qingming to the battlefield below to help the human cultivator army deal with the low-level monsters rushing down from the mountain.

Knowing that the demon king on the mountain must have sent a message asking for help at this moment, Song Qingming did not want to give the other party a chance to wait for reinforcements.

As soon as he arrived at the battlefield below, Song Qingming cast a spell and released the "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror", which shot out more than a dozen rays of light downwards. Soon, the screams of monsters were heard below.

Afterwards, the bridegrooms summoned out "Golden Wind" and "Ice and Fire Dragon", commanding them to join the battlefield and help quickly clear out the surrounding monsters.

The situation on Zhou Ziyang's side was similar. As soon as he arrived at the battlefield, the short sword magic weapon in his hand began to quickly shuttle among the group of monsters. However, in just half a quarter of an hour, twenty or thirty low-level monsters died tragically in his hands.

With the joining of two powerful Jindan masters, the morale of the human cultivators was immediately boosted. Under the leadership of Song Qingming and the others, they soon broke through the blockade of the monster army and quickly killed their way up the mountain.

Seeing that the army of monsters below was gradually unable to hold on and began to retreat, the "Barbarian Bull Demon King" hiding in the mountain became a little anxious.

At first he wanted to command the army of monsters to hold on and wait for help, but when he saw Song Qingming and four other Jindan cultivators appear at the same time, the "Bull Demon King" immediately gave up this idea.

At this moment, he no longer cared about the army of monsters on the mountain. He was only thinking about how to escape.

Seeing that Song Qingming and Zhou Ziyang were slowly charging towards the mountain from both sides, the "Barbarian Bull Demon King" knew that he would be discovered by the other side sooner or later, so he let out an angry roar and drove all the remaining monsters on the mountain to rush towards the direction where Zhou Ziyang was.

He relied on the transformation technique he had practiced to conceal his aura and transformed himself into an ordinary low-level demon bull in the Qi Refining period. He followed behind the herd, hoping to take advantage of the chaos to break out of the encirclement of the human cultivators.

Seeing hundreds of crazy bull monsters with red eyes suddenly rushing out from the mountain, Zhou Ziyang immediately stopped and led the army of monks behind him to block this wave of attacks from the monsters.

But he didn't realize that there was a pair of eyes in the group of monsters, watching his every move. (End of this chapter)
