Hunyuan Immortal Sect

Chapter 311 The situation is tense
Although the two were poisoned by the red smoke and consummated their marriage in a daze, fortunately their lives were not in danger, which was a blessing.

He has been in the main office of the shop for many years and is no longer the innocent child he used to be. He has been to many brothels, so he doesn't care about this kind of thing at all.

He just couldn't understand why the owner of this place would set such a trap. Looking at Hua Yuan's slim figure and snow-white skin, Jiang Zichen didn't know if he was still affected by the red smoke, but he was ready to move again. But in the end, reason prevailed and he restrained his impulse.

Just as he pulled Hua Yuan's body and wanted to get up, he heard a moan and Hua Yuan woke up.

When she opened her eyes and saw the two people hugging each other, she was stunned for a moment, and then a scream resounded throughout the secret room.

Jiang Zichen scratched the back of his head, not knowing how to face it, and hurriedly climbed up from her side. Only then did he notice a streak of bright red blood between Hua Yuan's legs, which made him even more embarrassed.

Hua Yuan huddled up tightly and lowered her head.

Jiang Zichen hurriedly picked up the clothes scattered around, dressed himself first, and then handed them to Hua Yuan.

"This... this is not my fault. I don't know what happened. I'm just confused. Anyway, let's get out of here first!"

Hua Yuan said nothing, but began to sob softly.

This made Jiang Zichen even more at a loss, and he stammered, "You...you put it on first, we can talk later if there's anything."

After saying that, he turned around and picked up a storage bag from under a skeleton in the sarcophagus.

Inside were some spiritual stones, elixirs, magic tools, talismans, and a golden book with the words "Heart Sutra of Yin and Yang" written in large characters.

Jiang Zichen read it carefully and found that the Heart Sutra was actually a very mysterious practice for men and women to cultivate together.

This technique utilizes the power of yin and yang, and can achieve twice the result with half the effort when practiced.

These two dry skeletons should be the couple who practiced this technique. Jiang Zichen closed the book and found some words engraved on the bottom of the coffin under the two dry skeletons. He turned over the bones and the words underneath came into view.

It turns out that the two dried bones belonged to a couple of wandering cultivators. They had obtained the Yin-Yang Combined Heart Sutra during a treasure hunt, so they built an ancient tomb here and practiced in secret.

Later, the two went out to hunt for treasure again, but unfortunately one died and the other was injured. After the husband died, the injured wife brought him back to this ancient tomb and passed away here.

As for why the two people set up the aphrodisiac smoke in this secret room, the text on the sarcophagus did not elaborate on their motivation.

Perhaps they hope that the monks who come here will practice martial arts here like they do and spend the rest of their lives there.

After reading the words on the bottom of the sarcophagus, Jiang Zichen looked at the Yin-Yang Heart Sutra in his hand, then looked at Hua Yuan who was already dressed neatly, and an idea naturally came to his mind.

…………

The sky is clear.

In Anyuan City, Meihua Ridge, golden auspicious clouds covered an area of ​​hundreds of feet, and from above came the sounds of metal clashing with stone.

Inside the formation, a massive fire dragon roared and attacked everyone.

Song Xian put his hands together, and a huge circle of flames enveloped the many fire dragons formed by the restriction. This was the second-level intermediate-grade fire magic, Flame Siege.

The fire dragon rushed left and right within the circle of flames, and the collision of flames produced crackling sounds.

As time went by, the flame circle and the fire dragon melted into each other. With the joint efforts of everyone, the fire dragons condensed by the restrictions were shattered and dissipated in the air.

As expected, when Song Xian led his team of monks to break through the defensive light curtain of the formation, the monks guarding inside had already fled, leaving only a few intact houses standing.

Meihualing was originally a first-class spiritual garden, dedicated to growing a spiritual tree called Meihuashan. At this time, all the Meihuashan trees in the spiritual garden had already been cut down.

But this is not important. As long as the spiritual land exists, the plum blossom shirt will be able to grow like green grass.

After taking over this camp, Song Xian ordered his men to rest here for a while and wait for Jiang Feng's next order.

According to the prior agreement, the Huaxian Mountain Spiritual Field and Meihualing Spiritual Garden that he led his troops to capture will belong to the Hunyuan Sect in the future. However, the two key guard camps of the Fengxing Sect that are to be attacked next, Huangyuan Valley and Xuyue Mountain, will belong to the Luoyun Sect and the Kong Family, and will have no share in the Hunyuan Sect.

The other two places belong to the second-level resource jurisdiction, and Huangyuan Valley is a second-level medium-grade spiritual farmland. After it is taken over, it will belong to Luoyun Sect.

Xuyue Mountain is a second-grade lower-grade spiritual garden, owned by the Kong family.

.........

After some rest, Song Xian led his team to successfully meet up with Jin Yuanxing and Kong Zhenqing, and headed towards the next destination.

Inside the cabin of the spirit ship, several people gathered in a room again.

Jiang Feng pointed at the atlas hanging on the stone wall and spoke solemnly, "Huangyuan Valley and Xuyue Mountain are only three hundred miles apart, and both are guarded by a second-grade, superior formation. According to our sect's latest intelligence, there are no fewer than two hundred cultivators guarding these two camps, and at least two Foundation Establishment cultivators in each camp."

"Although the previous conquests of several camps went smoothly, it doesn't mean the next ones will be smooth sailing. These two camps are tough nuts to crack. Fellow Taoists, please be mentally prepared."

"I suggest we concentrate all our forces and capture Huangyuan Valley first. After we take down this camp, we can then attack Xuyue Mountain."

Jin Yuanxing frowned slightly. "No less than two hundred people, at least two Foundation Establishment cultivators. That's too general. Two hundred people and two Foundation Establishment cultivators versus three hundred people and three Foundation Establishment cultivators. That's a lot of difference."

Xie Quan then said, "This doesn't include the fleeing enemy monks from the camps we captured. They've probably all poured into Huangyuan Valley and Xuyue Mountain to assist in the defense. So, I estimate that these two camps combined have a conservative estimate of 600 monks."

"We only have 500 men at most. It's really difficult to defeat the enemy's 600-man defense of the second-grade, superior formation. Fellow Daoist Jiang, could your sect please lend us some troops? If your sect's 2,000 disciples don't move now, when will they?"

Jiang Feng's face was expressionless. "Uncle Xu has already assigned this mission to our headquarters. It's premature to ask him for support before we even start the attack. Furthermore, our sect's two thousand disciples will be deployed during the final siege of Fengxing Sect's mountain gate. Uncle Xu will not lend them to our headquarters."

"Although the enemy has a large number of people, they are a motley crowd. If we can capture one of their camps, the other will fall without a fight. Now we just need to concentrate our forces on attacking Huangyuan Valley."

"Even if all the fleeing enemy cultivators rush into these two camps, Huangyuan Valley only has about 300 cultivators and two or three foundation-building cultivators. With our strength, we are more than enough to take them down."

Several people discussed the matter, but Song Xian remained silent. He had the least say, and therefore the most low-key, remaining silent on the decision-making process.

The spirit ship carried the team forward all the way to the outside of Huangyuan Valley. The defenders inside were already on high alert, and the mountain protection formation had been activated early. From afar, layers of black clouds covered the entire valley, as if there was a demon hiding in the black clouds, about to devour the valley.

"That's Huangyuan Valley. Fellow Daoists Jin, Xie, and Kong, you lead a team of 300 people to break through the formation. Fellow Daoist Song and I will lead 200 people to wait outside. If there are any enemy reinforcements coming, we will intercept them and send someone to notify you. At that time, you will leave the formation first and besiege the supporting monks together. If no enemy reinforcements arrive, we will attack the inner part together when you need support."

On the bow of the ship, Jiang Feng pointed to the valley in the distance shrouded in dark clouds and made arrangements.

Upon hearing this, Jin Yuanxing, Xie Quan and Kong Zhenqing on the side all changed their expressions slightly, and it was obvious that they were not very satisfied with this arrangement.

Song Xian also pretended to look at Jiang Feng. In fact, it was he who proposed this plan, of course, when they were alone together.

Since the ownership of Huangyuan Valley and Xuyue Mountain had already been discussed, and since they no longer belonged to Hunyuan Sect, it was only natural for Hunyuan Sect to put in less effort.

So he proposed that Luoyun Sect and the Kong Family take the lead, with Hunyuan Sect as the backup. He couldn't let them get all the benefits while he was the one doing the hard work.

Jiang Feng did not make a clear statement at that time, but he brought it up now, which was also after some consideration.

In his heart, he doesn't really care who contributes more or less.

The reason why he agreed to this arrangement was mainly for his own consideration, and he wanted to consume more of the strength of Luoyun Sect and the Kong family.

If the Fengxing Sect can form an independent alliance and openly oppose the Beast Taming Sect, how can we be sure that the Luoyun Sect and the Kong Family will not do the same?
From a public perspective, taking this opportunity to suppress the Luoyun Sect and the Kong Family would be helpful for him to better control the situation in Bianxi City in the future.

Personally speaking, he is closer to the Hunyuan Sect. After all, he was the one who built up the Hunyuan Sect, and Song Xian has always stood on his side with a clear stand and a firm attitude, while the Luoyun Sect and the Kong family have their own little thoughts.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang? There are about three hundred cultivators and several foundation-building cultivators stationed in Huangyuan Valley. Add to that this second-grade superior formation. I'm afraid we won't be able to break it with just the three of us leading three hundred cultivators. It's better to gather all our strength to attack the formation. Why leave some people guarding outside?" Jin Yuanxing raised an objection again.

Jiang Feng replied expressionlessly, "If we all rush into the inner room, what will happen if the enemy reinforcements arrive? We will be trapped in the formation, attacked from both inside and outside, and the consequences will be disastrous. Of course, with Fellow Daoist Jin's strength, it will not be difficult for him to escape the formation, but what about the disciples of your sect? Are you going to just leave them alone?"

"We can hold off the enemy reinforcements from the outside, buying time for your disciples who have entered the formation to leave calmly. Isn't that a good thing?"

"Besides, Huangyuan Valley and Xuyue Mountain will be allocated to your Luoyun Sect and the Kong family in the future, so of course you have to lead the charge. If it belongs to the Hunyuan Sect, I will let Fellow Daoist Song lead the charge and let you guard the outside."

Jin Yuanxing raised objections repeatedly, which made Jiang Feng feel uncomfortable, so he spoke very impolitely and directly pointed out the pros and cons.

These words left Jin Yuanxing and Kong Zhenqing speechless.

The spirit ship gradually approached Huangyuan Valley. At Jiang Feng's command, everyone jumped off the spirit ship.

"Fellow Daoist Jin, Fellow Daoist Xie, Fellow Daoist Kong, please enter the formation first! Fellow Daoist Song and I will support you. If the enemy reinforcements do not arrive and you encounter any difficulties, we will enter to help you."

The three of them looked at each other, and there was nothing they could do but to do as they were told. The team of 300 people entered the formation shrouded in black clouds one after another.

Soon, there was a loud thundering sound from the layers of dark clouds, as if the Thunder God was snoring, and then bolts of lightning shot down from the dark clouds.

Song Xian and Jiang Feng led two hundred monks to watch from outside. They were shrouded in layers of dark clouds. No one could be seen inside. All they could see were the constantly flickering and intertwining lights of various colors and the lightning and flames that were falling down.

As time went by, the movement in the black cloud became louder and louder, which also meant that the power of the ban was becoming stronger and stronger.

After about an hour, a figure rushed out. It was a disciple of the Luoyun Sect. His face was slightly pale. He controlled a magic weapon and came straight to Jiang Feng. He said hurriedly, "Senior Jiang, the restriction is too powerful. We can't hold on any longer. Uncle Jin sent me here. Please come to support us quickly."

"Have the enemy monks engaged you?"

"So far, we haven't seen any attacking monks from the defending army."

Jiang Feng had a clear mind. Jin Yuanxing and Kong Zhenqing were both in the middle stage of foundation building. Together with Xie Lang, who was in the early stage of foundation building, it was impossible for them to withstand the attack of the formation restriction with their strength. The team that entered might suffer some casualties, but they would definitely not be able to hold on.

But since Jin Yuanxing had already sent people to ask for help, he couldn't just sit back and watch. After all, there was an agreement that the reserve team would help them as long as they encountered difficulties.

"Since the front team is making progress in breaking through the formation, Fellow Daoist Song, you can lead a hundred monks to assist us. I will patrol the outside to prevent the enemy monks from reinforcing and catching us off guard."

"Yes." Jiang Feng had already spoken, so Song Xian had no choice but to agree.

Just as he gathered his men and prepared to enter the formation, suddenly, a cry of surprise was heard and someone shouted.

"Reinforcements are coming."

"They are the enemy's reinforcements."

He looked back and saw a spirit ship speeding towards him in the distance. Although the distance was too far and he could not see the flag fluttering on the spirit ship, there was no doubt that the spirit ship that was coming at this time was definitely that of enemy monks, because it was impossible for his side to have reinforcements.

"Go back immediately and tell Fellow Daoist Jin to withdraw from the formation and deal with the incoming enemy reinforcements first."

Jiang Feng's face was solemn. He immediately gave instructions to the Luoyun Sect disciple, and then ordered everyone to form a battle array.

The speeding spirit ship saw that there were people guarding the outer edge of the formation, so it immediately changed its direction, trying to bypass the crowd and enter the formation from the other side.

"We can't let them join the defenders. Fellow Daoist Song, follow me to stop this spirit ship. Everyone follow me." Jiang Feng gave an order, and then a light of escape rose up and headed towards the spirit ship.

Song Xian also set up a light of escape and followed behind, and the two of them soon blocked the spirit ship's way forward.

Jiang Fengxing was in the front and took action first. He clasped his hands together, and a huge rock several dozen feet in size, flashing with black light, condensed in the air and smashed towards the spirit ship.

With a loud bang, the black boulder hit the spirit ship's defensive light curtain solidly. A large number of golden runes surged in it, and shattered the moment they came into contact with the black boulder.

The entire defensive light curtain was hit hard by this blow, and immediately it sank and became distorted.

A golden light shot up into the sky from inside and hit the black boulder. The golden light intertwined with the light emitted by the black boulder.
