Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 538 The Battle Is Still On

The markets at the foot of Thunder Mountain had already closed down two months ago. Someone from the mountain had warned that the Five Thunder Palace had recently encountered a catastrophe, and those who had a way out should find another way out as soon as possible, or find a nearby city to settle down. Don't come back for a while.

Therefore, all those who remain here until now are the outer disciples of the Five Thunder Palace.

Most of these outer disciples were in the early and middle stages of the Qi training realm, and there were not many in the late stage. At this time, they were not idle in the empty market. Groups of five carried formation foundation stones of different sizes and placed them around Leiming Mountain. It was not just the market.

This was the third time that Leiming Mountain had strengthened its mountain protection formation. The previous two reinforcements were destroyed by the spells that fell from the sky, and it was unknown how long the third one could hold out.

"Hurry up and replace all the damaged cornerstones in the sign! Time is running out!"

"Deacon Yu, we need to repair more than 30 foundation stones this time. We may not have enough time!"

"We have to get it right! Now is the time to fight! Action!"

A group of five people quickly dispersed with nervous faces, and each ran towards the target location according to the assigned tasks before they came out.

The foundation of the mountain protection formation is the basis of the mountain protection formation. Although the core part is in Thunder Mountain, the extended part is equally important. This is related to how much surrounding earth power the mountain protection formation can involve to consolidate the formation. It is an important factor in whether the formation is solid or not.

If all the foundation stones extending outward were destroyed, the durability of the mountain protection formation would drop drastically, and it would also put exponentially more pressure on the cultivators who presided over the formation.

Yu Hao was an outer sect deacon, and his cultivation had only just reached the stage of forming a golden elixir. It would not be of much use for him to stay in the mountain gate, so he volunteered to lead the outer sect disciples to repair the foundation stone of the outer sect's magic array while the enemy's flying boat was attacking.

This was a very dangerous job. He had to bear the soul-soothing drums and formations of six flying boats overhead, and each time he could come out was very short, less than half an hour. He also had to be wary of the Jindan-level enemy mopping-up team cruising in the air.

The first time Yu Hao came out, he brought twenty-five people with him; the second time, he brought eleven people; and the third time, he brought only five people.

Firstly, they hoped to disperse the personnel more. Second, too many people had died and they were stretched to the limit, so they dared not send large numbers of people down the mountain.

At the beginning, the five people under Yu Hao were all progressing smoothly. They had all been out three times before, and were very familiar with the task, so they were very quick. If they could keep up this, it would not be impossible to complete the task of more than 30 formation cornerstones.

Everyone worked silently and desperately. Just as they were about to finish, they suddenly felt a divine thought sweeping over them, followed by a piercing whistle.

"Not good! Let's go!"

At this time, Yu Hao could no longer wait to repair the last few cornerstones of the magic circle. He could hear the whistle from the opposite side. The enemy would be here in a moment. If anyone hesitated for a moment, no one present would be able to escape.

Boo hoo hoo.
The flying sword arrives before the figure.

Yu Hao knew he couldn't just run away. So he shouted, "You go first!" Then he turned around and used his magic weapon to pull up a lightning net to help the disciples behind him block the several flying swords.

"How brave!"

Facing three flying swords, Yu Hao was only able to block two in the end, and the one he missed went straight to the fleeing disciples behind him.

At the critical moment, Yu Hao shot out a lightning shuttle to knock away the missed flying sword, slowing down the speed of the flying sword's pursuit and allowing several disciples who had attached the magic talisman to distance themselves from each other, making it difficult for them to catch up.

But in this case, Yu Hao couldn't leave. "Tsk tsk, the heretic from the Five Thunder Palace is quite courageous, but his brain is not working well. You, a Jindan realm, don't run away, but save several Qi training realm disciples. What's the point? You are putting the cart before the horse."

Yu Hao sneered in response: "How can a mere Tongyun thief cultivator understand human morality? If you offend my Leiming Mountain, you will only seek death!"

While he was talking, he still used the thunder method. However, even though Yu Hao was very powerful, he was at a disadvantage when he was fighting one against three.

The three Tongyun disciples also had tense expressions. They had already cursed in their hearts. In the past, they thought that the people of the Five Thunder Palace looked down on others, but now they deeply understand that the other party's combat power is much stronger than theirs.

Although the disciples of Tongyun had the upper hand in the three-on-one situation, it would still take time to kill the enemy quickly. They could only watch the disciples of the Five Thunder Palace behind Yu Hao disappear into the distance.

Buzz buzz.
Another series of strange roars sounded from above his head. Yu Hao understood that the six flying boats that were besieging Thunder Mountain were beginning to gather their magic power, preparing to smash the Five Thunder Palace's mountain protection formation.

Damn flying boat!
Yu Hao hated in his heart, but what he hated the most was not the Heyun, Tongyun and Mingyang sects, but the eternal sects of the Immortal Alliance!
How could the Heyun, Tongyun, and Mingyang sects gather six flying boats? The Five Thunder Palace had accumulated only one flying boat after hundreds of years, and they didn't dare to take it out, fearing that they would be besieged and given it away.

The Heyun, Tongyun and Mingyang sects were even worse, as they couldn't even build a flying boat.

Where did the six flying boats come from?
It was arranged by the Wanshi Sect in the Immortal Alliance. Even the Five Thunder Palace was speculating that the people who were operating the flying boat were disciples of the Wanshi Sect, not the Heyun, Tongyun, and Mingyang Sects.

It was precisely because of the offensive and defensive fortress functions of these flying boats that the Five Thunder Palace was able to make a sharp turn in the previous battle for the five mines. Because the mines did not have a powerful mountain-protecting formation, nor did they have a strong attack and auxiliary formation to bless them.

Furthermore, although the disciples of the Five Thunder Palace are stronger than those of the Heyun, Tongyun and Mingyang sects, their numbers are much smaller. It is impossible for them to focus their defense on the spirit stone mine far away from the mountain gate, right?

In the end, they had no choice but to retreat back to Leiming Mountain.

And it wasn't just during the confrontation with the Five Thunder Palace that the Immortal Alliance was secretly working hard. The Immortal Alliance also did the same during the Huangshan Sect and Songhu Villa's attack on the Heyun, Tongyun, and Mingyang Sects, directly sending four elders to warn the Huangshan Sect and Songhu Villa not to attack the Heyun, Tongyun, and Mingyang Sects at this time.

This attitude is clear, that is, to use the Heyun, Tongyun, and Mingyang sects as knives. Before stabbing the Five Thunder Palace to death, no one is allowed to cause trouble to these three sects.

Although the Huangshan Sect and Songhu Villa were still secretly putting pressure on the Heyun, Tongyun and Mingyang sects, it was certainly not as direct as before when they launched an attack, and there was no way to put pressure on the three sects to be attacked from both sides.

These thoughts flashed through Yu Hao's mind. He was just an outer sect deacon and had no idea how many cards his sect had in hand, and what the chances of winning were.

But Yu Hao understood that everyone in the Five Thunder Palace had to fight desperately, otherwise no one would survive.

He was determined in his heart. Although he didn't want to die, he was not afraid of death. He was just afraid that he would die without someone to take him with him.

It would be a loss if he could recruit one person. Yu Hao would not feel that he had made a loss until he could recruit at least two people. Only if he could recruit three people would he feel that he was making a profit.

But just when Yu Hao was preparing to fight to the death, suddenly bursts of bell sounds came from Thunder Mountain, heavy and melodious, and sounded with a solemn atmosphere.

Yu Hao was shocked: This is the morning and evening bell, which usually rings to remind the disciples not to miss the morning and evening classes. But now is the time of the immortal sect’s war, and this bell is a horn, is it a counterattack? !
There were no signs beforehand?!
The next moment, the alarm sounded simultaneously on the flying boats of the Heyun, Tongyun, and Mingyang sects! They understood that the war situation had changed!
