The bell rang, melodious and deep, echoing in the dusk and rain.
"Master, please warn me, hurry up!" Someone gave an order, and the leader and his team rushed to the mountain gate. It was just getting dark, and there were already lights behind them, followed by the sound of footsteps.
"How are you preparing?" The leader looked down the mountain. The mountain was not high. There was a lake at the foot of the mountain, and everything within ten miles could be seen. An elder said: "After we close the mountain gate, we can use rolling logs to beat rocks."
"We don't have the golden juice (dung water) to attack the city, but we have the poisonous juice to boil it, and the effect is no worse than the golden juice."
"The warning array on the wall has been activated. No one can break through it at will."
"According to the imperial court's order, we are not allowed to wear armor, but now we make temporary armors made of paper and cowhide. It is no worse than leather armor and is also lighter."
"Crossbows are not allowed, but we all have hunting bows. Although the range is a little short, it is not bad."
"As for spears and swords, they are more than enough."
The leader nodded and smiled evilly: "The preparations are good. I want to see how many people will die if the Qi Xuan Sect attacks my mountain gate!"
At this moment, a sound was suddenly heard in the distance. Everyone looked together and saw fireworks shooting into the sky.
Everyone's expressions changed, and soon they saw a Taoist priest below, rushing back to the mountain gate with a few junior disciples, and came to the front of the master. He was out of breath and reported: "Here we come, there are hundreds of people in total." superior."
The leader's face sank: "Everyone shrinks into the wall, everything is ready!"
Soon, figures were swaying up, torches were burning, swords were shining, and hundreds of figures were swarming in!
The leader's voice came: "The early warning array has been activated. Be careful inside and outside. Everyone should calmly accept the challenge. Don't fight alone, let alone rush in easily."
Although there were many people on the other side, they were silent and orderly. Except for the sound of fast moving footsteps, there was the sound of weapons, and then there was the "crackling" sound of torches occasionally exploding. When they reached a hundred steps in front of the wall, they all lined up solemnly outside the range. Formation, exuding a breathtaking aura.
Elder Liu from the Qi Xuan Sect came over, looked at it with a gloomy face, took a breath, and smiled bitterly: "I thought that the Songyun Sect didn't have a long history, and maybe it liked to fight alone, and fight in batches. That way, we can swarm them and kill them all easily.”
"Unexpectedly, this sect knows the art of war, so it suddenly shrank to the core and strongest stronghold. It seems that we have hit a hard nut this time."
"Only those secular Taoist sects without power have no rules and no rules!" Another person said: "Or those casual cultivators who have only been around for more than ten years."
"These walls are nothing, but combined with Taoism, they are very scary." Another person looked at it carefully and smiled bitterly.
"The Great Elder has his life, we have to fight." Elder Liu said gloomily and waved his hand: "But the only advantage is that although there are a hundred people in Songyun Sect, according to the intelligence, only half of them can fight."
"So we're actually two on one, and we've temporarily put on real armor instead of these fake ones—now, on!"
The clouds were thick, heavy rain swept down, and a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky. These people were wearing iron armor, and their chest scales were made of metal with light, protecting their chests. They listened to the order, shouted, and rushed forward.
"Shoot!" As he got closer, dozens of Taoist priests on the wall bent their bows and fired quickly.
"Pfft" dozens of arrows were shot up, but the people below had martial arts skills, and only a faint light flashed on the armor, making a clanking sound, but the arrow tips did not penetrate deeply.
"Kill!" The wall is not high, and the first group of people jumped on it, but the Taoist who had been prepared stretched out his hand: "Paralysis, flash, slowness"
A ball of light exploded, and a group of people shouted and thrust out their spears. Immediately, several people spurted out blood and fell down, but more people dodged and got close to fight, causing blood flowers to bloom in an instant.
In just a moment, the fighting between the two sides entered the realm of Nonglie.
"Shoot!" Seeing that something was wrong, the leader shouted.
I saw several Taoists holding giant water cans and spraying them at the people who came up to me.
"Toxic!" The water was sprayed elsewhere, but when it hit his eyes, he immediately let out a miserable scream, fell to the ground, rolled back and forth, and howled.
"Set fire!" Then, a torch was thrown up, and with a "boom", the water immediately turned into kerosene and poured on it, and there was another scream.
"Master, these poisonous water are not only poisonous, but can also turn into fire oil and burn on the water?" Zhang Yun followed to one side and asked Zhao Ning.
"Of course it's impossible to use ordinary kerosene, but our Songyun Sect's secret method is just right for rainy days." The leader also smiled coldly after hearing this: "What do you think our Songyun Sect is based on?"
Some people kept screaming and falling down, but more people rushed forward. There was not much poisonous water after all. It was just a few shots and it was all used up. The next moment, a more brutal fight began.
"There are many casualties in the door." Not far away, Elder Liu looked on with regret.
"Actually, these walls, poisonous water, and hunting bows are all trails. The Taoism produced in the blessed land is the enemy!" One person looked at it and saw the people rushing towards them fighting desperately, but there was a Taoism thrown at them suddenly. Although he himself There were Taoists on the other side and they resisted, but inside the wall, there was a difference.
"I am weak by three points, and the enemy is strong by one point, which adds up to four points."
But just as he was speaking, the man suddenly became speechless and pointed: "Elder Liu, the spiritual light in this Taoist temple has gone out."
"What?" Elder Liu looked up blankly, his face flushed suddenly, and he laughed: "This is what the Patriarch has launched in the blessed land. Attack and kill them quickly."
Songyunmen
While he was using Taoist magic, he suddenly felt that most of his magic power was gone. Everyone could not help but change their expressions and panic. The leader only glanced at it and saw that most of the pale white spiritual light in the Taoist temple suddenly went out, and his expression changed greatly: "No. Okay, there is an attack on the Patriarch’s blessed land, something is wrong with the Patriarch!”
The people on the other side seemed to be aware of it, and the sound of killing suddenly became louder, while the disciples were retreating steadily.
"Master, our elders are losing their magic power. Without mana, guarding the mountain gate is a joke. Although the disciple has experience, he can't kill more than twenty or thirty people. We must choose a retreat." An elder stepped forward and whispered, now Evacuate, perhaps retain some strength.
The leader gave a wry smile, stretched out his finger, and a spark ignited on the ground. "Boom" outside Songyun Gate instantly turned into a sea of fire.
This was the last precaution, but after a moment of interception, the leader turned around and said: "Without the blessed land, Songyun Sect will just be a casual cultivator. It is because of my incompetence and I am ashamed of all the founders of Songyun Sect."
"Retreat now, to where? Are you praying to Xuanmen to give us a way out?"
After saying this, the leader didn't say anything and went straight to the main hall.
A group of people crowded back and saw the statue of the Patriarch in the distance. The statue was shining faintly. In front of everyone's eyes, several elders approached with heavy steps. The leader just touched it and his expression immediately changed: "Blessed Land" The situation is critical, Qi Xuanmen has sent the incarnation of the Earth Immortal, not only that, but also the Dragon Qi of King Lu to help."
"Four masters have been killed."
Zhao Ning turned pale and said, "Even if the other party is the incarnation of the Earth Immortal, with the help of King Lu's Dragon Qi, and our sect is also canonized by the imperial decree, how can we be defeated?"
Before the leader had time to speak, Yu Yunjun had already smiled bitterly: "Elder Zhao, you don't know how to focus on Taoism. This is actually knowledge that everyone knows."
"Although they are all imperial edicts from the emperor, they are divided into edicts, edicts, systems, edicts, edicts, etc., and the edicts have different powers."
Seeing that several people around her were still confused, she said: "Edicts are widely advertised and are mostly used for the most important matters, such as canonizing princes, princes or even princes. They are often stamped with the jade seal of the state, and the imperial edict is the most powerful. "
"The imperial edict is an important decree, conferring hereditary titles above fifth rank and below uncle."
"Zhi is a decree written by the emperor himself. No matter how big or small it is, it can be called Zhi. Both of them are the treasure of Zhi."
"The imperial edict is an ordinary separate order, conferring titles below the fifth rank, above the seventh rank, and non-hereditary titles. The canonization of the true king is just an edict. The treasure that covers the edict is relatively low."
"Edicts are often simple instructions, or conferrals of people below the seventh rank, which can be done with a private seal." Yu Yunjun said, his heart tightened for a while, and he just smiled bitterly: "Although the order is an imperial edict, the power it carries is not comparable to that of King Lu. It’s really hard to say how to contend... I feel uneasy!”
The leader understood a little after seeing a few people. At this time, the fire oil burning outside was gradually exhausted and the flames were extinguished. Originally, the fire oil was combined with Taoism to eliminate some people at once. Unexpectedly, there was a problem in the blessed land, and Taoism was greatly reduced. It only became a barrier, and now it's not even a barrier anymore.
Seeing the sound of killing approaching, many disciples resisted desperately and their bodies lay on the ground.
"Buy time for the leader, for the Songyun Sect." Seeing this situation, Zhang Yun stepped forward and shouted, drew his sword and rushed forward to organize resistance.
Just as Yu Yunjun was about to stop him, Zhao Ning shook his head: "Let him go. He will lose his blessed land and become a casual cultivator. Even if he succeeds, what will happen? He is the reincarnation of an elder in the sect and has his own ideas."
After listening to the words, Lord Yu Yun remained silent, but the leader completely calmed down, made up his mind, and took out a jade plaque with the word "Song Yun" on it.
"This is the leader's talisman. The so-called yin and yang transform and circulate with each other. It has spiritual support in the blessed land, and it also has the power to return to the blessed land in the mountain gate."
"Now the mountain gate is in danger, and the blessed land is in danger. I have no choice but to divert my sect's energy and bring it into the blessed land for preservation. As for the loss of Songyun sect's energy in the future, there will be a crisis. That will be the responsibility of the next generation."
With that said, the headmaster said to Mr. Yu Yun again: "Among the new generation of disciples in the sect, only Pei Ziyun is the direct descendant. If Pei Ziyun comes back, you will immediately make him the head disciple."
"Master, it is not your responsibility. We did not expect to directly attack the blessed land." An elder stepped forward and said, "Please wait a little longer."
"Wait any longer? There is no time. I failed and cannot save the blessed land. Just run away. If one more person can escape, we still have hope for revenge." After saying this, the leader shed a tear on his wrinkled face. After passing by, it fell to the ground. Without any further hesitation, he sat down on the statue with his knees upright and sighed: "Spring, Autumn, Cold and Heat have lasted for sixty years, but the gentle breeze was here yesterday."
After saying that, Tu Qiqiao was bleeding, and almost at the same time, the light of the "Boom" statue lit up, and a faint figure rushed into the light.
This is the Yang side Qi Shu and the leader Yin Shen rushing into the blessed land.
