Everyone's Immortal Cultivation: Starting from a Junior Talisman Maker

Chapter 225 The most terrifying enemy is the one lurking in the unknown; countries strengthen their vigilance (Please subscribe)

It is located dozens of kilometers away from Xiancheng, the capital of the Yue Kingdom.

In the central royal tent of a camp garrisoned by millions of cultivators.

Several Core Formation cultivators who had traveled a long way from the capital city of Wuqi Kingdom were kneeling on one knee in the center of the royal tent, recounting in detail the scene they witnessed when True Monarch Jinyang was killed.

In front of them, True Lord Linghai and True Lord Wanhe sat quietly at two tables, listening intently.

The two men were serious at this moment, and the invisible pressure emanating from them made the Core Formation cultivators who came to report feel fearful and trembling, for fear of offending the two leaders.

As early as half a month ago, True Lord Linghai and True Lord Wanhe had learned of the murder of True Lord Jinyang from the liaison officer of Wuqi Kingdom.

They even knew that the protective formation of the capital city had been broken and the treasure vault had been looted.

However, this time the two of them mobilized a large army, leading more than a million soldiers of the Wuqi Kingdom to attack the Yue Kingdom from afar.

At this moment, they are facing off against the army of 500,000 cultivators led by the Hundred Peaks True Monarch of Yue Kingdom, and the army of 600,000 cultivators composed of the Northern Cold True Monarch of Xia Kingdom, Yunlai Kingdom, and Nanyu Kingdom, and are temporarily unable to extricate themselves.

Therefore, half a month ago, after learning that Jin Yang Zhenjun had been killed, even though they knew that the city's protective formation had been broken and the country was in chaos, they could not abandon their army of millions of cultivators and rush back to take charge of the situation.

Therefore, they had no choice but to send a message to several elderly Core Formation cultivators who had been stationed in the capital city of Immortal City to come and recount in detail the process of Jin Yang Zhenjun's murder.

The Core Formation cultivators stationed in the capital city of Immortal City, upon learning that True Monarch Jin Yang's soul lamp had been extinguished and he had been killed,...

Fearing that the mysterious cultivator who killed Jin Yang Zhenjun would target them afterward, they all decisively chose to flee after learning that Jin Yang Zhenjun's soul lamp had been extinguished...

Until the mysterious cultivator who killed Jin Yang Zhenjun destroyed the protective array of their capital city and left triumphantly.

Only then did the group dare to return to the capital, Immortal City, to take charge of the overall situation.

Afterwards, the group received a message from True Lord Linghai, instructing them to go to the Yue Kingdom to report on the killing of True Lord Jinyang.

The group sent people everywhere to collect information about the mysterious cultivator who killed Jin Yang Zhenjun, so they could report to Ling Hai Zhenjun.

It turned out that no one had ever seen the other person's true face.

Even if someone had seen the mysterious cultivator's blurry figure from afar when he destroyed the foundation of the city's protective array.

But because they were so far away, I didn't dare to look directly at them.

Moreover, as a mysterious big shot who can easily kill Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, if the other party wants to conceal his appearance and cultivation level in front of them, even if they can see his true face, it won't make much difference.

So the group had no choice but to travel a long distance, bracing themselves for the danger, to the important military camp where True Lord Linghai was located. They then recounted in detail the scene they had witnessed when True Lord Jinyang was killed.

At the same time, they prayed in their hearts that the two True Lords would not vent their anger on them.

"So, none of you saw the appearance, cultivation level, or other characteristics of the person who killed Jin Yang Zhenjun?"

After listening to the stories told by several Core Formation cultivators, True Monarch Linghai frowned even more deeply.

"Yes, at the time we heard that a terrifying battle broke out in the cultivation ground where True Monarch Jinyang was located, but when we rushed over, we found that the cultivation ground where True Monarch Jinyang was located had been covered by a concealment formation."

"I saw that Master Yuanming and several guards accidentally stumbled into that formation."

"But it was later discovered that all of them, including all the cultivators who were enveloped by that formation, were dead..."

One of the older Core Formation cultivators answered.

"Think back, from the moment you heard the sounds of fighting until Jin Yang Zhenjun was killed by that mysterious cultivator, how long did that process take?" Ling Hai Zhenjun asked, looking at the group.

"It should take less than half an hour."

After pondering for a few seconds, the elderly Core Formation cultivator replied.

Upon hearing this, the others lowered their heads and pondered for a few seconds before nodding in agreement.

"What? No, less than half an hour..."

"Are you sure that the mysterious cultivator killed True Monarch Jinyang in less than half an hour?"

Upon hearing their answers, Wanhe Zhenjun, who was standing to the side, was immediately filled with shock and disbelief.

Even Linghai Zhenjun felt a surge of emotions upon hearing their answers.

If the two of them had already felt somewhat wary of the mysterious cultivator's strength when they heard that Jin Yang Zhenjun had been killed, then they were still wary of him.

Now, having learned from the people in front of them that the mysterious cultivator had killed Jin Yang Zhenjun in less than half an hour, they felt a growing fear of him.

After all, being able to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator in half an hour is something that ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators cannot do.

Although it had only been a few years since Jin Yang Zhenjun broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm.

But True Monarch Linghai and True Monarch Wanhe knew very well that, let alone one-on-one, even if the two of them joined forces, they did not believe they could kill True Monarch Jinyang unscathed within half an hour.

"I wonder who that mysterious cultivator is?"

"However, since that person was able to kill Jin Yang Zhenjun so easily, it means that his strength has reached at least the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm."

"Or they possess a mid-to-high-grade fourth-tier magic weapon capable of easily annihilating a Nascent Soul stage cultivator."

"But as far as I know, in the entire Northern Plains, the only cultivator who has reached the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm is True Lord Xuanyang of the Chu Yan Kingdom."

"But our Wuqi Kingdom has no enmity with the Chuyan Kingdom, and the two countries are far apart. In recent years, there has been no conflict of interest between them."

“Logically speaking, the Xuan Yang True Lord of Chu Yan Kingdom wouldn’t need to travel such a long distance to kill the Jin Yang True Lord of my Wu Qi Kingdom.”

"Moreover, the protective array of my Wuqi Kingdom's capital, Immortal City, can keenly detect the fluctuations of a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator's magical power."

"Under these circumstances, even if the mysterious cultivator who killed True Monarch Jinyang was True Monarch Xuanyang or another Nascent Soul cultivator, they couldn't possibly sneak into the capital city of Wuqi Kingdom, Immortal City, without a sound while the city's protective array was activated..."

"Unless that person possesses a high-grade concealment talisman, or that person's cultivation level has not reached the Nascent Soul stage."

But if that person possessed a high-grade concealment talisman, logically speaking, he wouldn't need to use such a precious talisman to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stages.

"After all, the value and preciousness of a fourth-tier, high-grade concealment talisman is far greater than the life of a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stage."

"If that mysterious cultivator's cultivation level has not reached the Nascent Soul Realm, then even if he could secretly sneak into the capital city of Immortal City..."

"He couldn't evade the city's protective array to secretly bring a fourth-tier magic weapon capable of killing early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators into the capital city..."

Linghai Zhenjun had too many questions in his mind. In particular, his lack of basic information about the mysterious cultivator left him completely clueless.

He estimated that if he wanted to learn more about that mysterious cultivator, he would probably have to personally return to the capital city of Xiancheng, send people to conduct a more detailed investigation, and personally go to the scene of the battle between the mysterious cultivator and Jin Yang Zhenjun to see for himself. Perhaps he could find more useful information that way.

"Okay, you all go down!"

Seeing that he couldn't get much useful information from the people in front of him, Linghai Zhenjun listened to their report and then let them leave.

"Senior brother, what should we do next?"

After the Core Formation Realm cultivators, including True Monarch Wanhe, withdrew, he asked a question.

"We have no choice but to retreat."

Upon hearing this, True Lord Linghai said with resentment.

Given the current situation, the Yue Kingdom has invited True Monarch Bei Han, along with an army of hundreds of thousands of cultivators from the Yunlai and Nanyu Kingdoms, to provide support.

They don't gain much advantage at all.

Even if they wanted to join forces to deal with True Monarch Beihan, they couldn't find an opportunity for the time being.

Continuing to delay will only waste a lot of resources and time.

Especially now that their country has lost a Nascent Soul True Monarch, and there is no Nascent Soul cultivator in the country to keep order, if they do not go back to stabilize the situation, they will allow lawless elements to create chaos, burn, kill, and loot everywhere.

This will cause their country's fortune to plummet, thus affecting their future spiritual practice.

In addition, the killing of Jin Yang Zhenjun made them realize that they had unknowingly provoked a mysterious and powerful enemy.

This made True Monarch Linghai somewhat worried, wondering if the mysterious cultivator would turn against them after killing True Monarch Jinyang.

Therefore, during this period, ever since they learned of the death of Jin Yang Zhenjun, they have not dared to lead their troops to attack Yue Kingdom or join forces to deal with Bei Han Zhenjun. They have not even dared to separate from each other.

After all, that mysterious cultivator was able to infiltrate their Wuqi Kingdom's capital, Immortal City, and easily kill True Monarch Jinyang.

This means that the other party also has the ability to kill the two of them, so how could the two not be wary?

In particular, they didn't even know the basic information about that mysterious cultivator, nor did they know why their Wuqi Kingdom had offended him, which made them even more uneasy.

As the saying goes, you can only be a thief for a thousand days, but you can't guard against thieves for a thousand days.

With such a mysterious cultivator hiding in the shadows, they must be constantly on guard, otherwise, if they are not careful, the other party may seize an opportunity, thus putting them in danger and causing them to lose their lives.

A few days later, True Monarch Linghai and True Monarch Wanhe led an army of over a million cultivators back to Wuqi Kingdom in a grand procession.

When the Northern Cold True Monarch, the Hundred Peaks True Monarch of the Yue Kingdom, and the hundreds of thousands of cultivators from the Yunlai Kingdom and the Nanyu Kingdom saw that the Wuqi Kingdom had chosen to withdraw its troops, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

……

"Brother Bei Han, thank you for stepping forward this time."

"Otherwise, I alone cannot withstand the attack of the two Nascent Soul True Monarchs of Wuqi Kingdom and an army of millions of cultivators."

On this day, the entire army of cultivators from Wuqi Kingdom, including True Monarch Baiyue, withdrew from Yue Kingdom and flew to the camp of a large army of hundreds of thousands of cultivators led by True Monarch Beihan and supported by troops from Yunlai Kingdom and Nanyu Kingdom. They solemnly thanked True Monarch Beihan and the cultivators from the two countries who came to their aid.

He then had many fine wines and delicacies brought in to reward everyone.

"Brother Baiyue, you're too kind."

"Our countries signed an alliance agreement back then, and we will naturally keep our promise and come to help."

"Having heard that the Wuqi Kingdom has suffered a setback in its own backyard and lost a Nascent Soul True Monarch, it is likely that the Wuqi Kingdom will no longer dare to invade our countries in the future."

"..."

"Also, thank you for your hospitality, Brother Baiyue. Now that the Wuqi Kingdom has chosen to withdraw its troops, it's time for me to withdraw as well..."

When True Lord Beihan saw True Lord Baiyue come to thank him sincerely and personally offer him a large amount of delicacies, he could not refuse. So he accepted True Lord Baiyue's kindness and sat down with him for a drink.

After the banquet ended, True Lord Beihan did not linger any longer. He rose to bid farewell to True Lord Baiyue and then directly rode his escape light back to the Xia Kingdom.

After all, he came to support Yue Kingdom alone this time, and there were no Nascent Soul cultivators in the country to guard it. It was a period of weakness in its defenses. He was also worried that if someone were to infiltrate the capital city of Xia Kingdom, destroy the city's protective formation, loot the treasure vault, and go on a killing spree, that would be disastrous...

Especially a few days ago, after he heard that the Golden Sun True Lord of Wuqi Kingdom had been killed.

He also sent a message to the intelligence agents lurking in Wuqi Kingdom, who secretly investigated the matter.

However, according to feedback from intelligence personnel, he currently knows very little about the cultivator who killed Jin Yang Zhenjun and has no idea about the other party's background.

This also made him very wary.

After all, according to feedback from intelligence personnel, True Monarch Beihan learned that the mysterious cultivator who killed True Monarch Jinyang of Wuqi Kingdom was said to be able to bypass the sensing restrictions of the fourth-order city protection array and silently infiltrate the capital of a country.

Moreover, the opponent was carrying a fourth-order formation capable of trapping and killing enemies.

It leaves people with no chance to escape.

Such methods are truly terrifying.

In his view, even he might not be able to escape unscathed if he were to face that mysterious cultivator.

This made even True Monarch Bei Han worry whether that mysterious cultivator would make a move against their Xia Kingdom next.

Of course, it wasn't just True Lord Bei Han.

After learning that Jin Yang Zhenjun of Wuqi Kingdom had been killed, the Nascent Soul leaders of several other nearby countries secretly sent people to investigate.

After learning about the mysterious methods and formidable strength of the mysterious cultivator who killed Jin Yang Zhenjun, they were all equally wary.

Especially since they were unsure whether the mysterious cultivator's decision to attack Jin Yang Zhenjun of Wu Qi Kingdom was due to a feud with Wu Qi Kingdom or a spur-of-the-moment decision.

If it's the former, then it's alright.

But if it's the latter, then they'll have to be careful in the future.

Therefore, shortly after the death of Jin Yang Zhenjun of Wuqi Kingdom, the capital cities of several nearby countries strengthened their defenses to prevent the mysterious cultivator from sneaking into their capital cities and killing them.
