My Xiuxian script went astray

Chapter 67 Not a big problem
The Pingtian Sect invaded on a large scale without any concealment.

Within just one day, spies came to report that they had razed a mine, surrounded and killed the defenders there, then refined all the miners as sacrifices, and plundered the remaining raw ore and spiritual stones.

The mine was relatively small and belonged to another sect. There were not many experts there, so it was swept away. Wherever it passed, no one was left alive, and even earthworms were chopped in half.

Then, the Pingtian Sect occupied the Walang Town without any effort. The Qingmu Sect had already been defeated, and now it was destroyed again before it could recruit a few defenders. The place became the temporary territory of the Pingtian Sect.

From then on, the Pingtian Sect stopped its raids and settled down.

Because there is a tough nut to crack here—the Tianjian Sect!

The Tianjian Sect occupied several large spiritual mines here. Even though they had heard that they were about to arrive and transported some of the ore away in advance, the amount left behind was still astonishing enough to serve as a supplement for the travel.

After being stationed in the town of Walang, whether intentionally or unintentionally, the Pingtian Sect released a message:
Their leader, the Western Patriarch, had broken through to the late stage of foundation building a month ago.

"Later stage of foundation building?"

When the Lord of Yanxi Mountain heard the news from the spy, he was silent for a long time.

Even he himself was only in the middle stage of foundation building, and it had not been stable after so many years. The other party was one small realm higher than him. How could he compete with him?

"Brother, maybe he spread it deliberately to scare people and disrupt our military morale." said the mountain master's eldest brother.

The mountain master shook his head, "Not necessarily."

This little trick is meaningless. The truth will be revealed in battle. If it is false, it will only confuse the people on our side.

Moreover, the Pingtian Sect swept through the area at such a fast speed, which was enough to explain something.

However, his original arrangement could only deal with cultivators in the middle stage of foundation building. There was more than one person in the Pingtian Sect who was at a similar level to him. With the help of the mountain protection formation, he could hold them off.

But the arrival of such a master instantly disrupted his plans.

"It can only be this way."

The mountain master instructed the eldest brother, "Go and inform your eldest uncle, second uncle, and third uncle that from today on, they should not patrol outside and come back immediately. The people of the Pingtian Sect are cruel and ruthless. They are very dangerous."

The eldest brother was surprised, "What will happen to our men if they come back?"

These people are all captains. Who will take command when they come back?
The mountain master said: "I will arrange a new captain to take over. When the Pingtian Sect passes, you can go back again."

In addition, he returned to the cave, took out a box, opened the lid, and saw dozens of black pills neatly placed inside. They were all bought by him at great expense, and he felt a little distressed when he saw them.

"This is the only way."

Afterwards, he divided the pills into bottles and ordered them to be distributed to everyone.

……

Chen Lang also quickly obtained the information.

"Later stage of foundation building!"

Everyone in Team Seven was shocked. Even their mountain master was only at the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. How could they defeat such a master who appeared on the opposite side?
They vaguely smelled that the Yanxi Mine was about to be destroyed!
"Captain, let's go!"

All team members suggested not to stay at the front line, as Pingtian Sect was a real evil spirit, and if they faced him, they would most likely die instantly.

Chen Lang did not speak. He fell into a brief thought. There was a mountain master in the late foundation building stage at the Black Mountain Spiritual Mine, and there was another one here. Was it a coincidence?
He really couldn't beat someone of this strength. After all, he was only at the ninth level of Qi Refining and hadn't even reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

Soon, the captain of Team 16 also left, carrying a few small bottles with him and looking unhappy.

"What is this?" Chen Lang saw the jade bottle handed to him, opened it and smelled it, it smelled like elixir.

When the other team members saw it, they frowned.

"Soul Burning Pill."

The captain of Team 16 said, "It can temporarily increase your cultivation by one to several times. The more you take, the stronger the effect will be, but it will cost you your life." "The mountain master said that we should take it to repel the enemy in times of crisis. We must hold the front line and defend the territory of the Heavenly Sword Sect."

"I don't want to eat." One team member immediately stood up and angrily threw the badge on his waist to the ground, "I don't want to do this job anymore. Everyone take care of yourselves and see you another day."

He simply picked up his luggage and ran away.

The others all looked at Chen Lang. He was the backbone now and everyone listened to him, unless
"Don't you want it? Don't you all want it?"

Chen Lang picked up the bottles and put them in his pocket. There were more than a dozen of them. "Such good things, if you don't want me, give them all to me."

It's just a matter of burning up your life span, you don't even have to risk your life. Old Bidden, the mountain master, why don't you take out the good things earlier?

The captain of Team 16's face twitched. This person's thoughts could not be judged by common sense, so he decided not to persuade him.

“Captain, please discuss with the mountain master and withdraw to the rear. We are willing to hold out with them.

Otherwise, it would be hard to convince the others if they were hiding in the back while their brothers were fighting on the front line. "

The other team members looked embarrassed. They still wanted to stay in the mine and get a salary, but they didn't want to be cannon fodder.

Chen Lang waved his hands impatiently, "If you want to leave, then pack up and leave now. You still dare to threaten me? What? Do I need these accessories from you?"

This made the team members very angry. Although we are a little lacking in strength, at least we can do our part. Aren't you afraid of losing the support of the people by saying this?

But when they thought about the battle of Aoki Sect again, they felt that they were really just accessories.

"Captain, I want to stay." said a team member.

Chen Lang glanced at him and said, "What? Wait until I'm done fighting, then we can eat and drink for free?"

This made some people's faces turn red. They really thought so. Seeing that Chen Lang was so confident, maybe there was a way to deal with him?

However, he did not drive it away. He had already thought of a countermeasure, even the pendant would be useful.

Mr. Jin and Skinny Monkey were watching from the side, looking at each other in bewilderment. They had just joined the guard team and had run into this kind of thing. Should they leave?
However, they vaguely felt that this person's style was a little familiar, similar to an old friend.

In the end, another eight people left. Jin Ye and his companions chose to wait and see for a while, and the captain of Team 16 also left.

He even gritted his teeth, gave up the hundreds of spirit stones that he had staked in the hands of the mountain master, and chose to run away directly. Compared with resources, life is more important.

Since then, there were less than ten people left in the team.

"Captain, the leader of the Pingtian sect is already stationed in Walang Town and may attack at any time." Half a day later, the spy came to report.

"understood."

Chen Lang nodded. Songhu Mine was right between the main mine and Walang Town. If they attacked, Songhu Mine would be lost and the mission would fail.

But this is not a difficult task.

The famous philosopher, thinker, doctor and five-star general Soraka once said: As long as my teammates are alive, I will not suffer.

He had heard that the Lord of Yanxi Mountain had such good defense, like a turtle shell, so if he could just let the Western Leader attack him, wouldn't the Songhu Mine on the front line be defended?
How can this little problem be difficult for me?
A few new recruits had just joined Team Seven. They were supposed to have a meal together so that they could get to know each other, but it was too late. They had to wait until after the battle.

He first went back to the Rock Creek Mine and took a quick look.

The protective formation had already been prepared. A film of light was slightly propped up, covering the houses and tents. As he walked on the mountain road, he occasionally felt a strong murderous intent.

Everyone here recognized him, so no one stopped him. After scouting the area, Chen Lang returned to the front line.

Then, he took the Seven-Star Sword and another seven-team flag and headed to Walang Town alone.
