Immortal Road.

Chapter 349: Taking charge of the fleet, brothers meet again

When Lin Shan heard the two people’s mission, he immediately felt balanced.

Go treasure hunting by yourself, and Taoist Nun Qingsu go on adventure?
Taoist Qingji can do it!
It seems that I misunderstood him before!
Taoist nun Qingsu was also puzzled. She didn't know why her senior brother would betray his own people and help outsiders instead.

In fact, Taoist Qingji has his own considerations.

The discovery of new relics will inevitably be accompanied by the intersection and overlap of three forces. At that time, fighting between dragons and tigers is inevitable. Taoist nun Qingsu has just been injured by Zhong Shenxiu, and her condition may not have fully recovered. If she goes there, she is afraid that something bad will happen again.

On the contrary, at the Gangka Snow Peak Demon Camp, although something strange happened and the demon members disappeared collectively, as long as Junior Sister Qingsu is not too stubborn and just conducts a simple exploration of the periphery without going deep into it, it is not very dangerous.

After all, they are family and they grew up together. How could he possibly turn his elbow against others?

It's just that sometimes, things can't be done too obviously because they are from a reputable and upright family.

If it is the devil's way, then he might speak frankly.

It’s a pity that his efforts not only confused Lin Shan, but also offended his own junior sister.

Taoist nun Qingsu failed to understand the deeper meaning of his words, so she just got angry and ignored him.

Taoist Qingji didn't take it seriously. He was used to it since he was a child. After a while, the other party would pester him again. Women are just like this, with mood swings. He didn't need to take it too seriously.

After assigning tasks to the two, the next step is to allocate manpower.

How can you go out to carry out a mission alone?
Of course, you need help from your subordinates.

He looked directly at the group of deacons in the Foundation Establishment stage in the hall.

"You will each divide into two teams, follow Junior Sister Qingsu or Master Lin, and assist them in going together."

The voice just fell.

The dozen or so deacons below all crowded behind Lin Shan, leaving only Taoist nun Qingsu alone on the opposite side, as if it was an agreement.

Why go on an adventure when you can go treasure hunting?
The entire demon camp was wiped out, and this was also an ancient battlefield of evil demons from outer space. God knows what happened there, so everyone naturally sought benefits and avoided harm.

Moreover, Deacon Wu had told them on the flying boat before that the new Master Lin was young, friendly, easy to get along with, and didn't put on airs, so they all had a plan in mind.

When Taoist nun Qingsu saw this scene, her face turned pale, her eyebrows raised and her eyes cold, which frightened the group of people even more.

Taoist Qingji also frowned and scolded:

"What are you doing? We are on the same peak, and Junior Sister Qingsu has been with you day and night for hundreds of years. When it comes to a dangerous mission, you are all so afraid of death. You are unworthy of being my disciples of Qingyang Peak!"

Everyone lowered their heads in shame, but no one went elsewhere. They all stood rooted to the ground, apparently extremely afraid of Taoist Nun Qingsu.

Maybe women in menopause are like tigresses, with strange and unpredictable personalities, and are indeed difficult to get along with.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Deacon Wu had no choice but to stand up.

"Uncle Master, it's not that we disciples are afraid of death, but we are stupid by nature and always make Master Aunt angry, so..."

"Alright, no need to say more! I can go by myself, I don't need you!"

Taoist nun Qingsu's face turned pale. She suddenly interrupted him, then turned around and left the Taoist temple, turning into a rainbow of light and flying into the sky.

"Hey, Junior Sister."

Taoist Qingji could no longer sit still and quickly stretched out his hand to wave and shout, but it was too late.

Taoist nun Qingsu had a strong temper. She turned around and left as soon as she disagreed with someone, abandoning everyone in the hall. She left on her own without saying anything, and even Lin Shan was a little confused.

With this kind of personality, willful and arrogant, how did he survive to this day?
It can only be said that Qianyun Pavilion and Qingyang Peak are too powerful in the Song Dynasty, allowing her to cultivate smoothly all the way to the Jindan stage, and she has not yet suffered a real beating in the world of cultivation.

Zhong Shenxiu tricked her last time, and it seems the lesson was not deep enough.

"Forget it, let her be."

Taoist Qingji waved his hands weakly, apparently he was used to it. It had been a long time since this young lady had been difficult to serve.

He glanced at the people in the hall, and then glanced at the puzzled Lin Shan.

"If you want to follow Master Lin, then you must assist him in completing the mission and don't slack off. Do you understand?"

This was not only a message to the deacons, but also a covert warning to Lin Shan, and everyone knew this.

Lin Shan didn't have any objection. Seeing that Taoist Qingji closed his eyes again, he knew that the other party didn't want to talk any more and wanted to see him off, so he simply took him out.

……

After a brief stroll in the camp, he saw a group of foundation-building deacons from Qingyang Peak, all surrounding him and showing him their courtesy. It seemed that the righteous path also liked to flatter people, no matter whether they were Taoists or not.

"The large-scale outer space demon relic was discovered right here. It is said that this place was a major battlefield back then."

"These pits lead directly underground. There are probably more ruins underneath. So we have transferred thousands of mortals from the outside world to mine them. We can get some gains every few days."

"Master Uncle Qingji is here to guard the Void Passage, but he also wants to continue protecting the ruins here and bring us unexpected surprises."

"The world has changed dramatically over the past few hundred thousand years, and most of the past events are buried deep underground."

……

Lin Shan listened to their chatter and knew that this place must be no simple matter, otherwise it would not be taken so seriously by Qingyang Peak and Taoist Qingji would not be stationed here ever.

I couldn't help but look forward to the journey ahead.

the next day.

The fleet consisting of ten flying boats set off again.

This time, all of them were led by Lin Shan. Ten Foundation Establishment Stage deacons and two hundred Qi Condensation Stage disciples headed to the target Yuzicui area together. The rest of the people they brought became miners and joined in the work of mining the ruins here.

Lin Shan was very surprised at the magnanimity of Qingyang Peak. They actually gave such great power to a stranger like him. Aren’t they afraid that they would lead so many disciples into trouble?

If I fail to meet his abilities and all of my men are wiped out, it will be a heavy loss for Qingyang Peak!
But then he understood.

Although he is the only Jindan Zhenren in this fleet, these ten magic flying boats are all war weapons, specially provided by Qianyun Pavilion for low-level cultivators to use. With mutual cover and cooperation, their firepower should not be underestimated.

Even if I am gone, others can still advance or retreat.

This ancient battlefield of evil demons from outer space is not small. In some ways, its area is no less than that of Xiaoyizhou, but it is narrow from east to west and wide from north to south.

It only took two days of travel to reach the vicinity of Yuzicui.

The area around this stream is full of low mountains and hills, like the guards of this pearl and jade belt. Some places are rocky, some places are lush with water and grass, and many reeds as tall as a person are growing wildly by the stream.

But there is a certain section that is covered and hidden by the fog.

The fog kept surging, with purple lines shuttling through it. It looked like the remains of a force field from ancient times. Coupled with countless years of void erosion and changes in heaven and earth, a unique fog array spectacle was formed.

I guess the ruins are among them.

The fleet has just arrived and hasn't stopped yet.

Suddenly, a black light came from below, the angle was tricky and hard to defend against, it was obviously an ambush that had been set up for a long time!
A defensive light curtain automatically rose up on the side of the warship, activating other ships as well. In an instant, the defenses of the ten ships combined to block the fatal blow.

And that seemed to be just the beginning, hundreds of attacks followed simultaneously, trying to submerge the fleet at once!
"Scatter them!"

Deacon Wu reacted quickly when he saw this scene. The disciples of Qingyang Peak were also elites of the major sects. They immediately controlled the crossbows on the ship to fight back, using offense instead of defense.

"bang bang bang bang"

There was a chorus of sounds, two against two.

Seeing that the sneak attack was failing, one after another revealed their figures, and there were several hundred of them.

Not counting those in the Qi training and foundation building stage, there are five Jindan Zhenren! The leader is none other than Zhong Shenxiu!

"Qingyang Peak really refuses to give up. They have been hiding at the entrance of the void for a month, and now they are sending people out to die again?"

"Could it be that it's still Nun Qingsu? She got beaten so badly last time, and she still hasn't learned her lesson?"

"Leader, get out of here quickly! You dare to snatch food from my Demon Alliance without even looking at it."

"Uh"

Somehow, after Zhong Shenxiu had been in Xiaoyizhou for a few months, he had turned from a well-mannered Confucian scholar into a man with vulgar words, just like a demon. He had completely changed.

When Lin Shan walked out of the bow cabin and looked at him with a smile on his face, his tongue became tangled, his eyes widened, his throat was choked, and he pointed for a long time without being able to speak.

He couldn't understand how Lin Shan managed to survive the turbulence in the void after suffering such serious injuries?
Sailor Moon was protected by the Void Butterfly and was able to come to Xiaoyi Island smoothly. He accepted it, but he had been squeezed out a few months ago and was forced to flee to the north and join the barbarian tribe.

But Linshan, what right does he have?
"Third brother, how are you? It's true that we meet everywhere in life."

"Why do you look like this when you see me?"

Lin Shan stepped up into the sky step by step with a smile on his face. The wind and clouds gathered under him, lifting him up invisibly.

Zhong Shenxiu looked at him blankly and subconsciously asked about another confusion in reality.

"Second brother, why are you in the Qingyang Peak team?"

"Why can't I?"

Lin Shan's smile grew wider and wider. He was truly happy to see his sworn brother again.

Deacon Wu on the flying boat behind him saw this scene and became panicked.

He didn't understand why this evil man was so close to Lin Shan, so he thought he was smart and answered for Lin Shan.

"Master Lin is an ally of our Qianyun Pavilion and a true disciple of the Zixiao Sect of the Great Song Dynasty. We are as close as family. Now that we are trapped in Xiaoyizhou together, we will naturally help each other and overcome the difficulties together. How dare you, a mere evil villain, claim to be related to us?"

After these words were spoken, not only Zhong Shenxiu was stunned again, but Lin Shan suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"A true disciple of the Zixiao Sect of the Great Song Dynasty?"

Zhong Shenxiu was wondering, aren’t you the leader of a second-rate sect in Tianfu Mountain in western Shandong?

What's more, you have been living under the command of the Demon King Kuihu for several months, and with the little knowledge and ink in your head, you are barely more than a wild cultivator. How can you be a true disciple of a major sect?

Why do I think they don't look alike?!

Lin Shan was afraid that he would question him in public and thus expose his identity, so he quickly changed the subject.

"Third brother, you have been studying the teachings of the saints since you were young, and you are familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics. You have always been devoted to Confucianism. Why did you suddenly turn to the way of magic?"

Zhong Shenxiu's heart skipped a beat.

The secret passage is broken!

If it wasn't for his good elder brother, Young Master Jiuyou, who joined the Righteous Alliance as soon as he arrived in Xiaoyizhou and deliberately forced himself into a dead end, he would have been so bored that he would have defected to the Demonic Alliance!

Now they met Lin Shan. The two knew each other's identities well, so naturally they were cautious and no one dared to expose the other.

The group of demons behind him also cast suspicious glances at him, which made him feel a chill on his back.

"Hahaha, you are joking, second brother. Ever since I understood the truth, I have hated the hypocritical practices of the Confucian school. I admire the devil's willfulness and unruliness. Naturally, I am incompatible with your righteous sect!"

He hastily distanced himself from the matter and secretly warned Lin Shan that he had seen through his disguise and that no one should offend anyone.

Lin Shan nodded slowly, and suddenly realized:

"I see. It seems that after not seeing you for so many years, you have your own opinions and choices. What a twist of fate!"

"Yeah yeah!"

Zhong Shenxiu secretly exclaimed that it was a close call, and was thinking about how to get rid of Lin Shan as soon as possible.

"Oh, that's how it is"

The group of demons nodded, it turned out to be a misunderstanding.

No wonder these two were both young Jindan people. They were once geniuses, but later became strangers and joined different camps. It is indeed rare for brothers to turn against each other.

When the people at Qingyang Peak heard that Lin Shan and Zhong Shenxiu were not in the same group, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

I almost thought that our team leader was an undercover agent!

At this moment, a beam of white light suddenly appeared from the other side!
Someone actually took advantage of the encounter between the two parties and the moment when they had no time to take care of other things, and took the opportunity to launch another sneak attack!

The magical flying boat produced by Qianyun Pavilion is extraordinary. It can actually protect its master automatically. After being activated on a large scale just now, it sensed the danger coming. The sails faced the sunlight and released bursts of red true fire, which worked together to put out the white light.

This ray of white light was just the appetizer. Hundreds of attacks followed, flying at the same time, with a momentum that was no less powerful than that of the Demonic Alliance.

Deacon Wu and others remained calm in the face of the situation. They assigned people to operate the crossbow on the other side of the boat, using attack instead of defense to fight against each other. One cannot help but sigh at the power of Qianyun Pavilion's war weapons.

Lin Shan and Zhong Shenxiu also turned around at this time and happened to see hundreds of people from the Righteous Alliance appearing.

The leader among them was none other than their good elder brother, Young Master Jiuyou!

The expression of the young master of Jiuyou was calm, because he had already relied on the magic treasure of Youxingmen to sense the Star Gate sub-weapon on Lin Shan when he approached, so he was mentally prepared for the sneak attack.

Lin Shan and Zhong Shenxiu were also not surprised.

Lin Shan can also sense the Young Master of Jiuyou with the help of the Void Star Plate. Zhong Shenxiu has also fought several battles with the Young Master of Jiuyou in the ancient battlefield of the evil demons outside the sky. Naturally, he knows that once the ruins appear, the good brother will definitely show up somewhere.

"Second brother, third brother, how are you?"

The tone of Young Master Jiuyou was superior, because he was the first to lay out in Xiaoyizhou and seized the initiative.

First, Zhong Shenxiu was forced to join the evil camp, and then Shui Bingyue was forced to flee to the barbarian tribe. It was also planned in advance that no path would be left for either the righteous or the evil side for Lin Shan who would come later.

But no matter how much he planned, he never expected that Lin Shan could actually climb to the Qingyang Peak!

He jumped out from between the forces of good and evil, and the three brothers belonged to three different sides, forming a three-way confrontation!

He cursed in his heart, this kid is really fucking hell, ever since he entered the forbidden area of ​​the cliff, he has been slippery and difficult to deal with everywhere, even after coming to Xiao Yizhou, he was able to catch up.

Force your way into a certain power and open up a new world for yourself.

Lin Shan and Zhong Shenxiu also knew about the demonic identity of Young Master Jiuyou.

The three brothers each took refuge with their own enemies, and due to some strange coincidences, they were all in trouble.

Under the circumstances of being afraid of the consequences, no one dares to expose anyone else, so they can only make the best of the situation!
"Brother, it's been a long time since we last met. It's all because of you that I've fallen to this point. I haven't had the chance to thank you properly yet!"

Lin Shan was really grateful to Young Master Jiuyou for forcing himself to take action in the underground cave and dragging everyone into the space turbulence. Otherwise, he would not have been able to capture the Void Butterfly and obtain so many ancient rhymes.

You are worthy of being my good brother, you are really my lucky star!
Zhong Shenxiu's mind wandered, thinking about the things on Lin Shan's body, and he suggested:

"Big brother, you've arrived at the perfect time. How about we temporarily join forces and send the second brother off first?"

Young Master Jiuyou was overjoyed; this move was exactly what he wanted.

"Third brother, don't tell me. I have the same idea. Second brother has gone astray. We must not let him get away with it!"

"Today is a continuation of the battle from that day. Without Sailor Moon by your side, how can you escape without her help?"

"You stole my things, so just spit them out!"
