Immortal Road.

Chapter 319 Brothers, please help me
Just as troops from all directions were charging in, in a remote corner of Hongya Cave.

The three ancestors of the Yang family were so excited that they could not control themselves. Looking at the familiar features and landforms around them, which overlapped with the memories that had passed through them in the prism world, they hurriedly began to search around.

Not long after, they discovered a miniature formation.

"Boom~"

The Lord of Xuchan Cave had his fingers bounced away, and he looked incredulous.

The other two looked over quickly and found that this formation was very ingeniously arranged, hidden in the void, usually not visible to the outside, and would only be triggered when an outsider approached.

"It's just a marking and warning formation. It's nothing too difficult."

The three brothers quickly figured out the clue and dismantled it in no time.

Among a pile of stalactite columns in the middle of the formation, there is one hanging upside down from the top of the cave, and a faint white light is visible.

As the wind blew, they instantly felt as if their whole bodies were penetrated. This novel experience immediately made them excited!
In the center,
A stalactite column more than 20 meters long stood upside down, with water dripping from the tip below, and the tip of the bamboo shoots were about to bloom, and it seemed that they had not grown for long.

The three of them came closer.

Sure enough, there was the almost faint sound of bells and chimes, distant and desolate, like weeping and complaining.

This is an ancient piece of music that has long been obsolete and no longer used today!

It was only when they observed it excitedly that they felt something was wrong. The bamboo shoot tip did not seem to be growing well. Looking inside from the transparent outside, the green slurry accumulated within three inches of the tip only filled one-fifth of the capacity.

In other words, if we calculate based on a cycle of one thousand years, it would only be two hundred years!
"This"

The three brothers were stunned by each other, but after a quick thought they immediately understood.

With their experience, it was easy for them to combine the formation just now and connect the cause and effect.

Two hundred years ago, the Yuanlu Demon King moved in. It is very likely that the reed jade stalactites here were discovered by the Yuanlu Demon King, so he took them away in advance and left marks and warnings. They are equivalent to eating leftovers left by others.

But leftovers are leftovers!

No matter how little it is, it is definitely genuine Lu Yu stalactite!
The three brothers stepped back, slowly distanced themselves from each other, stared at each other with tense eyes, and began to exert slight force with their hands.

What brotherhood, what years of friendship, it seems a little useless at this time
……

The battle around the cave entrance continues.

The Yuanlu Demon King found Mr. Bei in the chaos of the army and discovered that he had already reunited with Dai Budong and Zhu Duiyou.

A group of soldiers were retreating in a hurry, looking extremely messy and miserable.

The young master of Jiuyou was looking for Mr. Wolf everywhere like a madman, but he was eventually left behind because he was unfamiliar with the terrain. However, he thought that the followers would catch up soon, so they could only find ways to continue to escape, otherwise they would be in big trouble if they were caught.

When the demons saw the Yuanlu Demon King coming back, they instantly felt reassured and recognized each other with great joy.

"Three military advisors, my king is doomed now. My century-old foundation has collapsed in one day. I am sorry to have caused you all to suffer."

The Yuanlu Demon King sighed endlessly, feeling very upset as he watched his demon soldiers falling down one by one, covered in wounds.

It worked hard, gathered together in the mountains and forests, and started from the grass. It fought with the demon king Kuihu for two hundred years before it finally conquered this land.

As a result, in just less than two months, its nest was breached without any clue, which made it feel extremely unreal and absurd.

Even if the Kuihu Demon King on the opposite side has broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage, even if there are three human think tanks on the opposite side, we should not be so careless, right?
This is too fast!

Moreover, why was it that at the critical moment, he was suddenly taken advantage of by so many human cultivators from the states of Lu, Jin and Chu, all gathered together!
The Yuanlu demon king boasts that he has always had good luck, but he doesn't know why he has been so unlucky recently.
However, it did not affect its knowledge that it had been completely defeated.

After two hundred years of hardship and happiness, we are now back to the time before liberation.

"Everyone, why don't you disperse and run for your lives?"

Mr. Bei was sincere, with tears in his eyes: "My king, victory and defeat are common in the military. With your talent of true spirit blood, as long as you find a good place to recuperate and regroup, you may be able to make a comeback in the future!"

There was a deafening roar of killing outside and flickering flames inside the cave.

Zi Yang knelt on the ground without saying a word. All the demon soldiers behind him knelt on the ground one after another, expressing their determination with silence.

This heart is so bright, what else can I say?

The Yuanlu Demon King's lips moved and his eyes turned red. He wanted to say something but couldn't. The urgency outside was weighing on his heart, but he didn't know how to express it.

It then looked at the two new human military strategists, Dai Budong and Zhu Duiyou.

The two young men had resolute and determined looks on their faces. They bowed down together with the Dai family members behind them, and they still stood by each other even at this time.

Although they were of different races, their relationship as monarch and subject was only brief.

However, the Yuanlu Demon King treats people with sincerity and has a generous and humble mind, which has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts. If we abandon him at this time, it will go against the ideals of scholars.

"Your Majesty, there is an old saying that goes, 'Where there is a will, there is a way.' After burning our boats and crossing the Qin Pass, Chu finally conquered the country. Heaven will not let down those who work hard. After sleeping on firewood and tasting gall, we can conquer Wu with 3,000 soldiers!"

"In my opinion, the Kuihu Demon King is nothing but an ambushless person. He has no ambition other than to maintain the status quo. He only knows how to bully others in the forbidden area. If it weren't for this coincidence and fate, the Xuanwu Corpse Rejection Land would be his burial place!"

"This mediocre old antique will eventually be eliminated by the times. Your Majesty is still young, how can you give up so easily!"

"Although we are not talented, we are grateful for the king's kindness. We are willing to share the joys and sorrows with the king and help him make a comeback so that he can rule the world in the future!"

……

Mr. Bei shouted loudly: "There are many talented people in the herbivorous camp, and we don't know if they will make a comeback!"

The group of demon generals behind him patted their chests and howled, seemingly a final hysterical frenzy, but in fact it contained their trust in and deep expectations for the Yuanlu Demon King.

The Yuanlu Demon King was greatly shocked. As long as these backbone members were still willing to follow him, he could recruit more troops at any time in the future.

After all, it is easy to get an army, but it is difficult to get a general.

It may seem like you have lost everything at this moment, but it may also be the beginning of escaping from the cage and soaring!
"Everyone, please stand up quickly. I am so lucky to have such loyal followers. I won't say any more discouraging words. What should I do next?"

Dai Budong made some mature and prudent remarks.

"Your Majesty, why don't we split our troops into two groups? Mr. Bei will lead the troops out of Hongya Cave and head north."

"Brother Zhu, General Ziyang and I will go south again to the Xuanwu Rejection Zone and inform General Qingniu to abandon his base and lead his troops to meet us."

"Finally, we will gather together and wait for the king to return to find another good place. We will make plans after we have rested and recuperated."

All the monsters nodded without objection.

In this situation, we have no choice but to retreat. As long as we have the green mountains, we will be able to survive. If we have to leave, we must take the army in the south with us. Overall, there is nothing wrong with it.

The Yuanlu Demon King looked embarrassed. If he retreated from the north of Hongya Cave, with Mr. Bei and the remaining soldiers around him accompanying them, those human Jindan-stage monks should not dare to stop them, and nothing unexpected would happen.

However, if Dai Budong, Zhu Duiyou and others go against the trend and head south to find Qingniu’s army at the Xuanwu Corpse Rejection Site, the difficulty level will be too great.

There are pursuers everywhere behind us, going back is simply seeking death!

"Two military advisors, if you turn back now and risk your lives, are you sure you can break through?"

After all, they are just cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Now that Ziyang has lost his demon pill, his demon body alone may not be able to protect them.

Dai Budong and Zhu Duiyou smiled at each other. They had already made up their minds and dared to say anything for the sake of the overall situation.

"Your Majesty, the two of us have actually long ago discovered an underground river passage that leads directly to the secluded place of Chenyuan Valley in the south of the cave. This time, sneaking through the underground river will be enough to avoid the enemy."

This underground river was the passage they discovered after secretly exploring for more than ten years in order to enter Hongya Cave in search of the reed stalactites. It was used at the critical moment.

Now that he has said it out loud, Yuanlu Demon King will naturally not feel conflicted given his broad-mindedness.

"Okay, the two military advisors, go quickly and come back quickly. Then, together with the Xuanwu army, you can go north from the east and west and join Mr. Bei. I will buy you some time!"

Our defeated troops from outside are still pouring in, and the situation has become critical.

The two did not dare to delay and immediately took the order and left.

The Purple Sheep and the Li Li Monster will guard them closely, and the Dai family members and the guards will follow behind to protect them.

Mr. Bei led his troops to evacuate northwards, collecting retail investors along the way. At this time, the Kuihu demon king had already caught up.

"Hahahaha, Yuanlu, let's see where you can run this time!"

Although the spirit of the bronze dish had fallen into a deep sleep, it was still a genuine spiritual treasure. In the hands of the demon king Kuihu, it transformed from decay into magic. A glacier appeared like a giant dragon, and endless cold spread and swept across the cave, and frost formed on the surrounding walls.

The antlers on the head of the Yuanlu Demon King flew out and turned into sharp swords to meet the attack. The clanging of swords echoed in the cave, and countless rocks fell with a rumble.

……

During the war outside.

Lin Shan rushed around, feeling as if he was in his own back garden in the heart of Hongyadong.

Seven armies followed closely, with the sound of clattering footsteps. They were all ordered to light torches, illuminating the stalactite forest with a red glow.

Three Jindan-stage cave master demon generals followed behind him. Before they came, they were granted military power by the Kuihu Demon King, so this was a good opportunity to use their power for personal gain. It must be said that he did a good job of using the public funds.

He finally understood the meaning of favoritism and fraud.
There is strength in numbers, and we can also take advantage of the east wind.

"I've made it clear what Bai Bi Sheng Hui means. Open your eyes wide and look carefully at the cave ceiling!"

"Qingfeng Touti should have understood it all. Let's test those who can blow evil winds one by one!"

"I, the military advisor, hereby make a promise. Whoever finds the Reed Jade Stalactite for me will be promoted two levels higher in rank in the future, and will have all the wealth and power he desires!"

While Lin Shan was shouting and lecturing in other people's territory, he was also painting a rosy picture for these little demons.

As a former black-hearted capitalist of the Lin Chamber of Commerce, he is very skilled at making empty promises!
The key point is that these monsters actually believed it!
Everyone knows that this Military Advisor Lin is a favorite of the Demon King Kuihu. He helped the king complete his unfinished ambition for two hundred years. After this battle, he will surely be the top hero!

Although he only holds the title of military advisor and cave master now, this may not be the case in the future.

It might even be possible for them to become "Prime Minister". Isn't it just a matter of words to give them promotion and wealth?
The three Jindan-stage demon generals and cave masters also knew this and wanted to cling to Lin Shan's big, thick legs and follow him to the end, helping him hard in the hope of being appreciated, and then after returning from the battle, they would get some benefits and conveniences for their demon caves.

There are many factions among the demon tribes, and they are constantly fighting with each other. Taking sides is a science.

Lin Shan swept along the way, exploring at a very fast speed. With so many subordinates helping him, he searched unscrupulously, which was much more efficient than the ancestors of the Yang family!

Not only him, a large number of people also poured in from the other three sides.

The Jindan stage monsters from Lu, Jin and Chu also broke in with their disciples.

The Yuanlu Demon King is doomed and unable to take care of himself. Hongya Cave is no different from an ownerless place, so we can search it boldly and without worry.

One after another, lighting spells lit up, and a strong spiritual wind blew by.

At the first moment, everyone spontaneously raced against time and began large-scale testing according to the records in ancient books.

The disciples and apprentices brought along the way come in handy at this time. They can help filter information quickly and serve as perfect tools.

Some old monsters in the Jindan stage came alone, and only at this time realized that they had overlooked this point. They should have brought people in earlier, and they couldn't help but regret it.

There were also some Jindan Zhenren who originally brought a lot of people with them, but they were all used as stepping stones on the road, and only then did they begin to feel distressed.

More demonic monks are used to taking shortcuts and secretly follow others to take advantage of any opportunities.

It is in the process of advancing at full speed in the deep, vast and interconnected areas in the southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest directions.

The opportunity finally comes at a certain moment!

"Found it, found it, Grandmaster, I found the Luyu stalactite!"

A Qi training disciple was so excited that he danced with joy. As soon as he made a discovery, he was the first to shout, fearing that his credit would be taken away by others.

After all, before this, their ancestor personally promised that if anyone could find the Reed Jade Stalactite, he would not only give him the Foundation Establishment Pill, but would also help him break through the Foundation Establishment Stage.

With the guidance and support of a Jindan stage cultivator, the success rate of breaking through the foundation-building stage will definitely increase greatly. For a Qi training stage cultivator, this is a great thing that is hard to contain oneself. No wonder he was so excited when he found out.

When the people around heard the shout, they all turned to look over.

At the top of a stalactite, at a base that two people could not even hug together, a faint white light emerged, which was out of tune with the surroundings. All the spiritual winds that blew past here did not bypass this person, but passed directly through!

It is indeed a reed stalactite!
The scene was now boiling over. Some people shamelessly shouted for credit, and others followed suit.

"I found it, I found the Luyu stalactite!"

"Bullshit, I was the first to notice it!"

"Master, please come here. I have already personally detected the reed jade stalactite!"

……

Jindan Zhenren, who was searching in the distance, heard the voice and flew over quickly. He did not care who discovered it first, but stared at the location of the Lu Yu stalactite.

Authenticated, one look at Ding Zhen!
"Hahahaha, good, good, good, good, disciples have done a great job. You will be rewarded handsomely when you return! Now, everyone, hush. Hush, hush, keep a low profile."

The Jindan Zhenren suppressed his surprise and quickly persuaded these bastards to keep their voices down and not attract other people.

He ate the food alone first, then turned around and immediately left the cave and flew away!

He knew that if he bit off more than he could chew, he would have to stop while he could get what he wanted and quickly escape with the treasure, and never hope for anything less than luck.

When the time comes, I can just abandon these burdens under my command. I don't have time to take them with me when I escape.

Not silencing him was already merciful enough!

If it were the Magic Golden Pill, after obtaining the treasure, he would definitely wipe out all his subordinates. This is the most correct and safest approach.

However, before he could go forward to take the treasure, an inopportune voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Hey, isn't this the Enchanter from Happy Forest? What's got you so excited?"

There were also jokes coming from the other side.

"If you have any good news, please tell me so that I can hear it. Sharing happiness is worse than happiness alone~"

This was not the end yet. Many old villains came out from all directions. These people had been following him secretly for a long time. As soon as they saw peaches being picked, they jumped out immediately.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Happy Forest is so efficient. It's really fast, and they reward you with good work!"

"Fellow Daoist, you are such a fool. You don't want to share your good things with others. Do you want to eat all of them by yourself in front of us?"

"That's right, this is your fault. So many fellow Taoists here fought hard to attack Hongya Cave, why did you get to enjoy it all by yourself?"

"Friend Shi En, wait a minute, think twice before you act."

……

At this moment, six different Jindan stage monsters suddenly emerged, which gave Shi Ensanren a big scare!

The underground cave is so big, why are there so many people staring at me here?
Among them were those from both the righteous and evil worlds, who came out with ill intentions and all wanted to get a piece of the pie.

The atmosphere on the field began to ferment, and the seven Jindan stage auras clashed with each other, with murderous intent lurking in the air and as powerful as Mount Tai.

At this critical moment.
"Boom boom tap tap tap."

The sound of the violent galloping came from far away and even the sound of the dark river in the underground cave was covered up. The nearby gravel on the ground began to jump and the ground under my feet trembled like an earthquake.

Lin Shan arrived at the scene with seven armies, with flags flying behind him, a demonic aura like clouds, and a neat army. It was obvious that they were elite troops who had fought in many battles and were as strong as tigers and wolves.

When he arrived, he raised his arm, and everyone behind him immediately became quiet, obeyed his orders, and all the soldiers were ready to go.

"Hahahahahaha, it's true that after searching high and low for something, I finally found it without any effort!

My fellow Taoists, this item is meant for me, please give it to me if you can!"

He smiled slightly, revealing a row of white teeth, looking so harmless.
