Chapter 723: Temple meeting

Views:

When Ancestor Linghu saw Han Li, his expression was as usual, and there was no trace of abnormality revealed. He didn't know if he didn't recognize a former disciple of the Foundation Establishment period, or he was scheming enough to be able to hide his emotions and anger.

Han Li turned his gaze. Apart from these few people, sitting in the middle of the main hall was an old man with a purple face and a beautiful woman in palace attire. When Han Li's spiritual sense detected the two of them for a while, his heart trembled. Both of them were in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and they should be the masters of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance.

While Han Li was scanning the monks in the hall, other monks in the hall were also looking at this young man who had just entered the hall. Most people were obviously a little surprised by Han Li's youthful appearance. After all, it is true that there are not many exercises that are suitable for male cultivation and can also keep your appearance forever.

"Junior Brother Han, you are finally here. Take a seat, we are discussing the matter of the Mulan people with my suzerain and others." The monk surnamed Lu greeted with a smile.

The fire dragon boy on the side also showed a smile and nodded kindly.

Han Li smiled peacefully, bowed his hands to the other monks in the hall, and sat on the wooden chair next to the monk surnamed Lu.

"This is Fellow Daoist Han of the Luoyun Sect, right? I'm in the Lower Bay Ye Zong Wupeng, and I learned from Brother Lu that Fellow Daoist has entered the Nascent Soul stage in more than two hundred years. He is really a genius among our Tiannan cultivators. Maybe, the Dao is really promising!" The purple-faced monk waited for Han Li to sit down, and said to Han Li with a smile.

Although Han Li's current cultivation base is still a bit lower, but in terms of potential, he dare not underestimate it.

"My suzerain is too polite. I just entered the Nascent Soul stage by luck. How dare I talk about the things that can be achieved." Beiyezong is another big faction in the Nine Kingdoms League that is tied with Huayimen. Han Li dare not trust him. Great, a few words of polite humility. But at the same time after saying this. Han Li glanced over the middle-aged beautiful woman next to the old man. Since this purple-faced old man is the Patriarch of the Bayeux Sect, then this beautiful woman is most likely a monk of the Huayi Sect.

Sure enough, Han Li's thoughts turned like this. After Wu Peng coughed lightly, he said: "This is Mrs. Qi from the Huayi Sect. She and I are temporarily in charge of the affairs of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance. The other fellow Taoists are..."

The old man introduced all the other monks in the hall to Han Li one by one. When he introduced the ancestor Linghu of Huangfeng Valley, the ancestor responded blankly without any special expression.

Han Li's heart moved slightly, but he just nodded as usual.

After introducing everyone, Wu Peng's expression turned serious: "Fellow Daoist Han came at the right time. We are discussing that the magician is powerful, far beyond what was originally expected. I heard that Elder Yu and the others in front of us were defeated again." In the field, even the large formations that were important to be located in the two places were forcibly destroyed by the giant beasts driven by the opponent. Many monks were killed or injured, and even Fellow Daoist Huan of the Shadow Sect died in this battle. Since the war with the Fashi, the second Nascent Soul Qi comrade has fallen. It can be seen that the Mulan people are coming fiercely this time, and the alliance urgently needs your comrades' assistance."

Hearing the cautious words of this Beye Sect, all the smiles on the faces of the monks subsided, and a dignified aura immediately appeared in the hall.

"My suzerain, we have also received some news about this matter. After all, those who are fighting against the mages in the front are also disciples of our various factions who are on duty in the noble alliance. However, we really don't know the specific circumstances of the fall of Fellow Daoist Feng. , my brother, can you explain this matter in detail. It is unbelievable to know that Nascent Soul cultivators have been repeatedly damaged in such a short period of time. Could it be that the high-ranking mages on the other side have been dispatched in large numbers so early?" An old man with a green robe and dove face , asked gloomyly, with a hoarse voice.

When Han Li heard this, he took a few more glances at this person. I heard from Wu Peng just now that this is an elder from the Demonic Dao Yulingzong. I don't know what relationship it has with Liu Yu and Han Yunzhi.

"Whether all the opponent's high-ranking mages are dispatched, I have not received the news, but all the fellow Daoist Feng and the fallen fellow Daoist were killed in a one-on-one fight with the opponent, and they were not besieged." Wu Peng Hearing the words of the old man in green robe, he said with a strange expression on his face.

"Impossible. Even in the face of the defeat of the Nascent Soul mid-stage mage, it is still possible to escape. Could it be that the one who shot was the god master among the Mulan people?" Hearing this, the old man in green robe asked in surprise.

"No, it's just two Nascent Soul early-stage mages. But these two people who shot one after another are a bit weird. Not only are the spiritual powers extremely powerful, far surpassing mages of the same level, but they also use an extremely weird treasure. The two Taoists As soon as the Yuanying came out of the body after the defeat of the friend, it was trapped by the opponent with this treasure, and even unable to use the teleportation magic power, so it fell." Wu Peng seemed to have expected that someone would ask about this, and sighed. Sermon in a tone of voice.

"Yuanying can't use teleportation, what kind of treasure is that, is it an ancient treasure or a magic weapon?" Hearing this, one person gasped and asked in disbelief.

Others, including Han Li, also changed face when they heard the words. You must know that the reason why the Nascent Soul cultivator is so difficult to fall is because after the Nascent Soul is out of the body, he can use teleportation to escape, and now there is a treasure that can restrain this supernatural power, how can we not let these monks be shocked .

"What kind of treasure it is, the disciples of the alliance who watched the battle in front didn't know. They just said that when the two of them raised their hands, there was a black and red light, which came and went without a trace, and it was impossible to guard against. And..." Wu Peng pondered for a while, and his face Show hesitation.

"My suzerain, what's the inconvenience now?" Seeing this, the green-robed old man showed displeasure.

"My brother is not inconvenient to speak clearly, but because he thinks it is a little impossible, so he hesitates. Let me talk about this matter!" Mrs. Qi, the head of Huayi sect, smiled, and suddenly spoke up to help Wu Peng. Both belong to the sects of the Nine Nations League, so she naturally has to help.

When Han Li heard this, his curiosity arose in his heart. The rest of the people in the hall were similar, and they all focused on Madam Qi's next words.

"The thing is like this. Some disciples who watched the battle earlier found that the two Nascent Soul Stage mages looked very strange. They seemed to be directly sucking the souls of the people who died in battle, and neither mages nor monks would let them go. Therefore, my suzerain suspects that those two people are not human beings, but transformed by some other kind. But there is no obvious ghost aura on them, and those disciples can't make an accurate judgment. But speaking of it, suddenly The addition of so many powerful and unusual wild beasts should be related to these strange magicians. Therefore, we suspect that the Mulan people can collude with other forces, so they can invade our Tiannan on a large scale." Madam Qi sighed lightly. sermon.

"Heterogeneous! Ma'am, do you mean monsters that can transform?" Hearing Madam Qi's words, all the people in the palace were shocked. Amidst the horror, Patriarch Linghu asked in a deep voice.

"It should be. But even if it's not a monster, it's an evil cultivator who cultivates the way of demons and ghosts. If this is the case, I would rather meet a monster, otherwise it will be more troublesome." Wu Peng said with a gloomy face.

"When did my suzerain get this news?" Han Li, who had been silent all this time, asked slowly with a flickering expression.

"This information came along with the last battle report. Fellow Daoist Han, what is the purpose of asking this?" Wu Peng was stunned for a moment, and twirled his long beard under his chin, feeling a little strange.

"It's nothing, I just think that it doesn't matter whether those strange legal scholars are human or demons, but since they dared to attack so early without any scruples, they are not afraid that we will find out their identities. It seems that the Mulan people will not fight protracted battles like before. Most likely they will strike with a thunderbolt, find the main force of our cultivators, and decide the outcome in one fell swoop. Could something have happened to the Mulan Grassland?" Han Li propped his chin, and said thoughtfully.

Upon hearing Han Li's analysis, Wu Peng and Mrs. Qi's expressions changed drastically, and they looked at each other in shock.

The other monks also sank in their hearts. Those old monsters naturally understood what Han Li meant. In the past, the Mulan people's many invasions were all protracted wars. Basically, each war lasted for a few years, and lasted for more than ten years. Regardless of the monks of the Nine Kingdoms League or the Mulan law priests, both sides tried their best to avoid the appearance of a one-time main force decisive battle. Because if you do this, either one side will be completely wiped out, or both sides will lose, and basically the latter will be the majority.

Neither Brother Tiannan nor Master Mulan could bear such a heavy loss of vitality. In particular, the Mulan people are composed of many tribes, and the Tiannan cultivators are also joined by large and small sects, and the two sides cannot be of one mind.

But looking at the aggressive approach of the Mulan people now, it is indeed very different from previous invasions. Coupled with the appearance of those savage giant beasts and strange mages, no matter how you look at it, it seems that something happened to the Mulan people.

"Brother Han is right. It seems that there is indeed something wrong with the Mulan people. They can't be careless. All the sects in Tiannan must be mobilized, and the second batch of reinforcements will be sent here soon, otherwise if the Mulan people are all It would be terrible if it was broken. I hope that some comrades will explain the matter to the various sects after they go back, and they must act quickly. With the strength of our alliance alone, it won't last long." After a long while, Wu Peng gave a wry smile. Said.
