Four immortal cultivation families joined forces with ten foundation-building cultivators, but they came from different forces and each had their own plans.
The Wang family is relatively weak. If they attack the Yu family's base, they are worried about being used as cannon fodder by other forces. Wang Zijiang naturally does not want to attack the Yu family's base. The Han family and the Mu family are the strongest. The head of the Mu family is celebrating his 100th birthday, and Han Changming brought his wife and children to celebrate. The two families have some friendship.
The Yu family has developed for hundreds of years and must have accumulated a lot of wealth. In addition, if they gather their troops in one place, it will be easier to survive if they encounter danger. Dividing troops has its advantages, and gathering troops has its advantages. Everything has its pros and cons. Now that representatives of the Han, Chen, and Mu families have agreed to join forces, Wang Zijiang can't object.
After reaching a consensus, they set off.
In addition to the ten foundation-building cultivators, there are also ninety Qi-refining cultivators, including children of the four families, as well as disciples of Tinghai Pavilion and Qingyun Sect. They are nominally there to assist in the battle, but in reality they are military supervisors. If the four immortal cultivation families are passive and lazy in the fight, they will definitely report it.
After capturing Yu's family, they will join forces with the people from Qingyun Sect and Tinghai Pavilion.
After leaving the cave, Mu Guobin took out a two-foot-long white flag and injected magic power into it. A large white light emerged from the flag and a large green mist flew out, turning into a green cloud over a hundred feet in size, floating three feet above the ground.
"Everyone come up! The Qingyun Banner is very fast, it will definitely catch the Yu family off guard."
Mu Guobin greeted and walked up first.
The monks walked up one after another, and the white cloud slowly rose into the air and flew towards the sky.
Green Snake Island got its name because of the large number of green snakes raised there. The green snake is an amphibious monster that looks like a lizard and is named after the large number of green scales on its body. The skin of the green snake can be used to make talismans, its meat is edible, and its blood can be used to make talismans or make elixirs. However, this monster is difficult to reproduce and grows slowly.
In the meeting room, Yu Wenjie, the head of the Yu family, sat on the main seat. Today was the day when the Yu family calculated the family income for the past five years, and more than a dozen elders attended.
The Yu family has a total of seven foundation-building cultivators. Two of them hide their identities and practice in the dark, unknown to outsiders. It is precisely relying on this system that the Yu family has survived several crises and stood in the Red Algae Sea for hundreds of years.
"Master, in the past five years, we earned 248,675 spirit stones and spent 197,895 spirit stones. The spirit stones were mainly spent on Taixu Sect. Last year, Senior Li of Taixu Sect celebrated his 300th birthday, and we spent 70,000 spirit stones on gifts."
The Yu family is a staunch vassal of the Taixu Sect. If it weren't for the protection of the Taixu Sect, the Yu family would not be where they are today. The Yu family naturally did not dare to neglect the 300th birthday of a Jindan cultivator and prepared a generous gift.
"Master, we now have 125 green snake beasts in our clan, and three more have been added this year. We..."
A roar of a wild beast sounded in Yu Yunjie's arms. He frowned and took out a palm-sized green jade plate. There was a lifelike animal head pattern on the surface of the jade plate. The animal head bared its teeth and made loud roars.
He cast a spell into the green jade plate, and a panicked male voice suddenly sounded: "Something bad has happened, Patriarch, enemy attack, enemy attack."
Almost at the same time, bursts of wild beast roars sounded from other elders.
"Oh no! They are from the Qingyun Sect! Go out and meet them!"
Yu Yunjie's face changed drastically and he rushed out in a flash.
Outside the Green Snake Island, a green cloud floated in the air, and the Qi-refining monks cast spells to attack the Green Snake Island.
A thick green fog covered the entire Green Snake Island, making it impossible to see the situation on the island clearly.
Han Deling and ten other foundation-building monks took out their magic weapons and attacked Green Snake Island. The dense magic spells flew into the thick green fog, like a sea of mud, and no sound was heard.
"The Yu family's protective formation is so troublesome. We have to use the real power. Children of the Mu family, listen to my orders and set up the formation."
Mu Guobin shouted loudly, and ten Qi-refining cultivators of the Mu family took out a red-glowing banner, which was exactly the same in size and appearance. This was a set of magical instruments.
The Mu family invested a lot of money in this battle and took out a complete set of magical weapons, each set containing ten pieces.
Ten Qi-refining monks waved the red flags in their hands one after another. Their magic power poured into the red flags like a flood. The flags suddenly swelled in size, and a dazzling red light shot out from the tip of each flag.
Ten red lights gathered together and suddenly turned into a three-hundred-foot-wide red fire cloud, which was covered with a layer of red flames and emitted a tremendous heat wave.
Boom!
There was a muffled sound from the red fire cloud, and a giant fireball as big as a water tank flew out and smashed into the green fog below. One, two, three...
A dozen giant fireballs smashed into the thick green fog, and a low explosion was heard.
Han Deling was secretly surprised. The magic weapons of the Mu family were quite powerful. If ten Qi-refining monks joined forces, they could exert the strength of a monk in the middle stage of foundation building. It was a pity that they were only first-level magic weapons. If they were second-level magic weapons and were used by ten foundation-building monks, they would probably be able to break the Yu family's protective formation quickly.
The difficulty of refining a set of second-level magic tools is naturally not comparable to that of a set of first-level magic tools, and the power is also far apart.
The Qi-refining cultivators of the Han family summoned out a giant green eagle puppet beast that was about ten feet tall. Each giant green eagle released a dozen or so green wind blades that were about ten feet long, and they rushed into the green fog one after another.
Other Qi-refining monks joined forces to cast powerful spells to attack the thick green fog.
After all, the Yu family has been passed down for hundreds of years, so it is not so easy to break the protective formation of the family. However, the Yu family cultivators did not come out to meet the enemy.
"Let me give it a try."
Han Debiao volunteered, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and he took out a huge axe shining with golden light. This magic weapon was refined by a Jindan cultivator and was quite powerful.
The magic power in his body was madly injected into the golden giant axe, which burst out with dazzling golden light and chopped towards the void.
A golden light flashed, and a golden axe shadow over ten feet long shot out and chopped towards the green mist.
Boom!
With a deafening roar, the green mist was split into two by the golden axe shadow and a lot of it was dispersed.
Chen Yufeng took out a flying sword with a flashing red light, and with a pinch of sword formula, the red flying sword released a large amount of red sword energy, slashing towards the green mist.
Under the siege of the crowd, the green mist became less and less and smaller in size.
"What are you doing, fellow Taoists? Aren't you afraid of provoking a war between the two factions?"
A somewhat angry male voice suddenly sounded, and Yu Yunjie and a dozen other Yu family cultivators flew out. They had alert faces and each held a green formation flag in their hands.
There are currently four foundation-building cultivators from the Yu family on Green Snake Island. One of them has gone out and has not returned yet. The one with the highest cultivation level is Yu Guangfeng, who is in the late stage of foundation-building.
"Hey, we are also following orders. Kill."
Mu Guobin smiled, his face full of murderous intent.
The red banners in the hands of the ten Mu family disciples emitted a dazzling red light. The red fire cloud above the Green Snake Island rolled violently, and more than a dozen giant fireballs as big as houses flew out one after another and smashed into the Green Snake Island below.
Yu Yunjie and the others' faces turned ugly and they waved the green flags in their hands.
Countless green mists surged out, covering their figures. More than a dozen giant fireballs sank into the green mist one after another, and a loud noise was heard.
Han Debiao and others increased their attack intensity and attacked the Yu family's protective formation.
In the meeting room, Yu Yunjie and other elders of the Yu family gathered together. They looked panicked. Ten foundation-building monks came to kill them. The family protection formation could not hold them off for long. Even the hardest turtle shell could be broken eventually.
After a painful mental struggle, Yu Yunjie said, "Seventh Uncle, Eighth Aunt, Third Brother, you take Zhengguang and the others and retreat! I will stay to stop the enemy. As long as there is green mountains, there is no need to worry about firewood."
There are more than a hundred Yu family cultivators and four foundation-building cultivators on Green Snake Island. If they fight head-on, they are definitely no match. The best strategy is to break out in dispersed ways.
"Yunjie, you are the head of the family. The family cannot live without you. Let me stay and stop the enemy! I can hold them off for a while longer."
Yu Guangfeng volunteered, but Yu Yunjie was only in the middle stage of foundation building and could not hold off the enemy for long, and would only die in vain.
"Well... okay! Uncle Seven, take care. Aunt Eight, Third Brother, let's retreat immediately!"
Yu Yunjie hesitated for a moment and then made a decision.
"Brother, we can't leave the things in the family treasury to them. Take them all away! We can't let them get away with it."
A man in a green shirt, whose facial features were quite similar to Yu Yunjie's, frowned and spoke with a look of reluctance on his face.
"Idiot, the enemy is here to kill you, and you're still thinking about your property. The longer we delay, the lower our chances of escaping. Did they come all the way here just to kill us? They're after the property in our family treasury. Just take the most precious things with you. If we delay for too long, they may think we've taken away a lot of property. Money is only a thing outside of our body. As long as we're safe, we can earn back the spirit stones. Just listen to me."
Yu Yunjie would never be willing to give up the property in the family treasury. The situation is urgent now and he can't care about money. The longer they delay, the lower the chance of their escape.
The Yu family still has many industries. As long as the number of foundation-building cultivators does not decrease too much, the Yu family can make a comeback.
Outside the Green Snake Island, Han Debiao and hundreds of other cultivators attacked the Island frantically. The colorful spells were immersed in the green mist. The entire Green Snake Island began to shake, and bursts of sharp explosions were heard.
Han Debiao's body was glowing red, and red spiritual patterns appeared on his body. There was a crackling sound of bones coming from his body. His body swelled more than a circle, his veins were exposed, and the blood vessels under his skin were clearly visible. The golden giant axe in his hand burst out with dazzling golden light, and chopped towards the Green Snake Island.
A golden light flashed, and a golden axe shadow over thirty feet long flew out. Before it landed, a sharp explosion was heard.
Boom!
With a deafening sound, the green mist suddenly exploded and disappeared. Dozens of rays of light flew out from Green Snake Island and flew in different directions.
The Yu family's decision to divide their forces to break out was not unexpected to Han Deling and the others.
"Chase them, don't let them get away."
Wang Zijiang shouted and led his clansmen to chase after several Yu family cultivators.
Even if he attacked the Green Snake Island's lair, he wouldn't be able to get much property. Perhaps these Yu family cultivators who escaped would have a lot of property on them.
Even if he had no property, Wang Zijiang didn't mind. He could find a place to hide for a while and come back after a while so that he could get a share of the profits, thus reducing the risk.
The Wang family is of low strength and does not seek to become rich overnight, but only to live in peace and security.
"Friend Han, let's chase them."
Mu Guobin and the other eight foundation-building cultivators were divided into three groups. Two of them chased Yu Yunjie, two chased another foundation-building cultivator, and the remaining four besieged Yu Guangfeng.
Their attack on the Yu family this time has created a grudge between them. It would be best to destroy the Yu family. If that doesn't work, they would at least attack the remaining members of the Yu family. If they let the Yu family's foundation-building cultivators escape, the Yu family will definitely cause trouble for them when they have recovered in the future.
The best option is to nip the danger in the bud.
Han Debiao, Han Deling, Mu Guobin and Chen Yuanhua stayed to deal with Yu Guangfeng.
Yu Guangfeng did not intend to fight to the end. He just wanted to delay the enemy and let Yu Yunjie and others escape.
Yu Guangfeng slapped the spirit beast bag, and a clear bird song sounded. A two-meter-tall green giant eagle flew out and circled around his head.
The second-grade superior Wind-Chasing Eagle, the Yu family's guardian spiritual bird, is equivalent to a cultivator in the late foundation-building stage.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, you and I will deal with that spiritual bird. Fifth brother, Fellow Daoist Mu, you guys deal with Fellow Daoist Yu."
Han Deling whispered, and summoned two second-order flying puppet beasts to attack the Wind-Chasing Eagle.
Chen Yuanhua threw out two red flying knives, which turned into two red lights and hit the Wind-Chasing Eagle.
Han Debiao swung the golden giant axe in his hand, releasing a golden axe shadow more than ten feet long, chopping towards Yu Guangfeng.
Mu Guobin took out a red flag that was about ten feet long and waved it gently, causing waves of fire to rise. It then transformed into a red fire python that was over ten feet long and pounced towards Yu Guangfeng.
Yu Guangfeng took out a two-foot-long blue jade ruler and shook it gently. Points of blue light emerged and turned into a blue water wall more than ten feet high, blocking in front of him.
The red fire python slammed into the blue water wall, and immediately a puff of green smoke and a large amount of white mist rose.
Boom!
The blue water wall was cut in half by the golden axe shadow and turned into a pool of clear water.
A series of "hissing" sounds of breaking through the air were heard, and hundreds of slender blue water blades flew out without warning, heading straight towards Han Debiao and Mu Guobin.
Han Debiao and Mu Guobin quickly cast spells to resist, but after a series of muffled "ding ding" sounds, all the attacking blue water blades were defeated.
There was a deafening roar from the sky, and a dark cloud hundreds of feet in size suddenly appeared above Han Debiao and Mu Guobin, with lightning and thunder, and silver snakes dancing wildly.
Boom!
More than a dozen thick silver lightning bolts flew out from the dark clouds and struck Han Debiao and Mu Guobin fiercely.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yu Guangfeng turned into a long blue rainbow and broke through the air at a very fast speed.
Before he flew far, an unbearable heat wave hit him and more than a dozen giant fireballs as big as houses hit him.
Yu Guangfeng quickly waved the blue jade ruler in his hand, releasing a large blue water curtain that covered himself, and then summoned a shield with shining blue light that flew around him.
Boom!
After a burst of explosions, billowing flames engulfed Yu Guangfeng. Even though there was a blue water curtain between them, he still felt a little dry in the mouth.
A golden light suddenly appeared in the flames, and a golden axe shadow more than ten feet long instantly appeared in front of him and chopped on the blue shield.
"bite!"
With a dull thud, the blue shield flew backwards and knocked Yu Guangfeng away.
Before Yu Guangfeng could stand firmly, a giant fireball with a diameter of five meters fell from the sky, bringing with it an astonishing heat wave, and hit him. The billowing flames engulfed Yu Guangfeng, and the blue water curtain became flickering and could collapse at any time.
A golden light lit up, and a huge axe shining with golden light appeared in front of him. The blue shield was chopped into pieces by the golden axe, and the golden axe fell on the blue water curtain.
"No······"
Yu Guangfeng was cut into two halves by the golden giant axe, and his body fell from the sky to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Han Debiao waved his hand and the huge golden axe flew back to him. There was blood on the axe blade. The power of this magic weapon was even greater than he had imagined. It was worthy of being a magic weapon refined by a Jindan cultivator.
A trace of fear flashed in Mu Guobin's eyes. He could naturally see that although Han Debiao was strong, he relied more on the giant golden axe.
After killing Yu Guangfeng, they were able to free up their hands to besiege the Wind-Chasing Eagle. Without the command of the immortal cultivators, the Wind-Chasing Eagle was overwhelmed by the siege of four Foundation Establishment cultivators. Han Debiao seized a flaw and chopped the Wind-Chasing Eagle in half with one axe.
