Mourning for the new book in July, I have read his "Qin Officials", "Spring and Autumn I am the King", etc., which are excellent works of historical time travel.

Yunxiao Sect, Tianqin Peak
Tianqin Peak is located to the west of the middle section of the Yunxiao Mountain Range. It is one of the thirteen Tianzitou peaks surrounding Yunxiao Peak and is also the main peak of the General Affairs Hall.
Since the death of the former master Qingshi Zhenren forty years ago, the General Affairs Hall has been in a state of ownerlessness. Initially, Wei Biao, the head of the Internal Affairs Hall, presided over it for a period of time. After Wei Biao defected, he was handed over to the guard of the Hall Master of the Merit Reward Hall, but he was never able to choose the real Master of the Golden Pill Hall.
It is said that after Zhao Yue'er achieved the Golden Elixir a few years ago, Master Hong intended to let the youngest real person take charge of this palace, which has the most complicated affairs and considerable power. However, the girl politely declined the request on the grounds that she needed to consolidate her realm. .
So after the delay, all the countries in the Eastern Region have attacked the Yunxiao Sect's mountain gate, but the palace master here is still nowhere to be found.
In the end, the ancestor of Xiling issued an order to invite the Duan family, one of the three major golden elixir families in Yunzhou, to come over and temporarily take over the place.
In fact, it's not just the Duan Family Supreme Being. When the news of the formation of the coalition forces in the Eastern Region came more than three months ago, the Yunxiao Sect had already sent out a call to all the Zifu and Jindan in the territory, including several family Jindan. Order, all summoned to the Yunxiao Sect, waiting for dispatch.
Only three golden elixirs are not among them.
One of them is Sha Tongtian from Shazhou. This dear friend has long been separated from the Yunxiao Sect, and he has always listened to the instructions but not the propaganda. On the third day after rejecting the Yunxiao Sect's recruitment order, when he heard the news that Jiahe Ancestor ordered the world to conquer the Yunxiao Sect, he immediately announced his separation from the Xu Kingdom and established himself as a country. Now he has followed the coalition forces and is fighting against his old master!
The second one is Lan Yuanxuan, the master of the Zhenguo Palace, who is guarding the Moyun Crack in Hanzhou and has a heavy responsibility. Especially in recent months, the demons on the other side of the rift have been active frequently, and they cannot escape even for a moment.
The last one is Zhao Yueer. The kite sent to her has been hovering over the sect, unable to find a clear direction. This shows that this woman is no longer in Xu State, or even in nearby Qin State, Sangzhou and other places, and cannot be contacted.
In fact, in the minds of some insiders, there is another Jindan in Yunxiao Sect, whose surname is Yang Mingzhen. Unfortunately, like Zhao Yuer, this person could not be contacted.
Despite this, the Yunxiao Sect managed to gather fourteen golden elixirs, thirteen of whom guarded the thirteen main peaks. These main peaks, together with Yunxiao Peak, form a complete Yunxiao Sect mountain protection formation.
Perhaps it was because they had just arrived and the situation was unknown, plus the spies planted by Liang, Zhou and other countries in the Yunxiao Sect were working together inside and outside. At the beginning of the coalition's attack, Tianqin Peak suffered an extremely violent blow. A gap was opened in the formation for a time. Fortunately, the Xiling Patriarch arrived in time with reinforcements, and the position was stabilized. Those damaged areas were also repaired one by one.
However, compared to other peaks, this kind of temporary reconstruction is not very solid after all. Therefore, Tianqin Peak has become the focus of the coalition's attack in the past few months, and the roar of magic spells is endless day and night.
At this time, the inside and outside of Tianqin Peak were like two worlds. On the mountainside, already within the protection range of the mountain guard formation, the palaces and pavilions are basically intact, majestic and magnificent, and they are still the same as in the past.
Under the mountainside, especially the area in front of the mountain, is a mess. Everywhere you can see the scorched earth burned by fires, the traces of floods, as well as various potholes, broken trees, broken walls, and dilapidated scenes.
However, the original mission hall of the General Affairs Hall, a hundred miles away, remained intact during this disaster, and some places were even reinforced.
This is now where the coalition command post is located.
In the main hall, under the originally empty mission notice wall, a cloud platform has now been set up. A middle-aged man in an earth-yellow dragon robe is sitting on it, with a dignified appearance and a majestic expression.
This is the Liang Emperor, Liang Jiahui in the late Jindan period.
There is a wing room on his left, with a beaded curtain hanging down at the door, and a middle-aged woman in palace attire can be vaguely seen sitting in it with a relaxed attitude. However, when I probed with my spiritual sense, there was suddenly a rush of clouds, and the feeling of vastness of the wild sand was frightening.
This person's name is Liang Suying, and she is a supreme elder in the middle Nascent Soul stage of the Liang Kingdom.
The countries in the Eastern Region besieged the Yunxiao Sect this time, and the Liang Kingdom sent the largest number of troops, was the strongest, and was the main sufferer. Therefore, Liang Emperor Liang Jiahui naturally became the nominal commander-in-chief of the coalition forces.
But with great power comes great responsibility. The troops from various countries are working on expeditions and are entrenched outside the Yunxiao Sect. The daily consumption is calculated in tens of millions of spirit stones, nearly half of which come from the Liang Kingdom. The burden is not small.
After more than three months, the various resources paid by Liang Guo have exceeded 400 million spiritual stones, accounting for almost 20% of the national treasury's savings.
If this continues, Liang Guo himself will declare bankruptcy before the Yunxiao Sect is defeated.
But it is even more impossible to retreat.
Who dares to disobey the True Lord’s order?
The situation is now too difficult to get out of, and we can only advance without retreating.
Thinking of this, Liang Jiahui frowned and sighed secretly.
"Report——"
While he was thinking about it, a disciple came to report: "Your Majesty, the powerful general of the Qin Kingdom, King Qin Zhaohuan of the Tang Dynasty, is asking for an audience at the door."
"Oh, invite him in."
Not long after, the majestic Qin Zhaohuan, wearing a helmet and shaking armor, quickly came to the front of the hall, cupped his hands and said:
"Your Majesty, we are running out of Void-Eating Grass."
"Gone again?" Liang Jiahui was shocked, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
Void-eating grass, as its name suggests, is a strange spiritual grass that can eat the void. Of course, it must be an immortal grass above the ninth level to be able to do this. The highest level of these ordinary Void Devouring Grasses in Zhenyu Realm is only Level 4, and they do not have such terrifying abilities.
However, if this grass is mixed with some specific spiritual materials and spiritual stones, ground into fine powder, and sprinkled into a certain area, it can disturb the space and thus affect the spatial transmission.
Xu State is rich in Kongming Stone, and almost every main peak of Yunxiao Sect has a teleportation array connected to the outside world. If there is no relevant interference, the monks of Yunxiao Sect can advance and retreat freely, taking the initiative on the battlefield at any time, and it is even possible to quietly organize a large army to attack from behind.
The mountain-protecting formation not only protects itself, but also actually restricts its own actions.
Just this kind of interference, even if it only takes a little bit, it can interfere with a large area, but it involves a vast area with a radius of thousands of miles, and the daily consumption of this Void Devouring Grass can be overwhelming.
"How many are needed?" Liang Jiahui asked with a frown.
"One hundred thousand kilograms, let's bear it for ten days first." Qin Zhaohuan replied.
One hundred thousand catties, the market price of each catty is two hundred spirit stones, which is another twenty million spirit stones expense. Liang Jiahui breathed out depressedly and said, "I know."
After saying that, he took out a jade slip, put a seal on it, and then threw it to a disciple standing in the audience.
"When will your queen come over?" The disciple went to the warehouse to collect supplies, while Liang Jiahui left Qin Zhaohuan to continue questioning.
"Replying to your Majesty, my emperor has informed the ministers of yesterday's letter. In the past two days, I have gathered with the Crown Prince of your country, the Emperor of Zhou, and the Queen Mother of Zhao Kingdom, and they have come together."
"Good!" Liang Jiahui was overjoyed when he heard this.
Zhao and Qin, one has been an ally of the Yunxiao Sect for many years, and although the other is a feud, their relationship has gradually improved in recent years. In this campaign against the Yunxiao Sect, although the two countries each sent an army, their combat effectiveness was far from satisfactory, even inferior to that of small countries like Song and Daye.
This time, all the Nascent Souls of these two families were finally dispatched, obviously under pressure from the Jiahe Ancestor.
With the full support of Zhenzun, no matter how stubborn the Yunxiao Sect is, how long can it persist?
This is their greatest confidence!
Moreover, when these people come, they will not only increase their strength, but also bring a large amount of supplies, which is enough to relieve the current increasingly embarrassing situation.
God helps me!
…
Two-quarters of an hour later, all the Void-Eating Grasses were taken from the warehouse. After Qin Zhaohuan finished counting them, he handed them over again and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute!" A woman's voice came from the side room.
"Senior, what are your orders?" Qin Zhaohuan quickly lowered his head and asked, his attitude several times more respectful than before. Over the past few months, everyone in the coalition forces knew that the Yuan Ying Supreme Prince of Liang was not an easy talker.
"In the past few days, various countries have taken turns attacking Yunxiao Sect," Liang Suying said in a long tone: "Your Qin State has not contributed much. Since you are here today, you will bring another real person from your family and all the people under your command. Disciple, let’s go to Tianqin Peak.”
"This..." Qin Zhaohuan said hesitantly: "This junior is responsible for logistics and has many affairs. Especially today, I just received the Void-Eating Grass, which needs to be ground immediately..."
"Grinding the Void Devouring Grass, can't we do this kind of thing to build the foundation of the Zi Mansion?" The woman sneered:
"Or is it that you, a mighty general, don't want to take action?"
"This..." Qin Zhaohuan broke into a cold sweat. The woman's voice was soft, just like an ordinary woman speaking. However, in the main hall, there suddenly appeared a fierce pressure of the Nascent Soul, as well as undisguised murderous intent, like a towering mountain, pressing directly on his head.
Reminiscent of the previous meeting in front of the palace, the Jin Dan from Zhao State had his legs broken by her because she pushed and blocked him. Qin Zhaohuan felt that his feet were weak and he could not stand steadily.
"Junior is willing to fight!" He said bravely.
The pressure disappeared instantly, and there was no more movement in the room.
Since Qin Zhaohuan agreed, he had no choice but to summon his own soldiers, including one Jindan, ten Zifu, and one hundred and fifty Ji Zhu, to attack Tianqin Peak in a mighty manner.
Ten miles away, we will arrive in a blink of an eye. The Yunxiao Sect members were hiding in the formation, and no one came out to interfere.
One hundred and sixty-two people were well-trained and quickly formed a large circular formation that was derived from the Five Elements Dragon Capturing Formation and could attack and defend.
The two golden elixirs were at the beginning and end of the formation.
After forming the battle formation, the group of people flew to the mountainside a thousand feet high and watched as an octagonal pavilion bombarded them.
This is one of the points of the mountain-protecting formation in the Tianqin Peak area, and it was also the main attack direction during the previous war.
Three corners of the octagonal pavilion were broken off, revealing several runes carved inside. This was the damage suffered when the formation was almost breached last time, and it has not been repaired until now.
Most of the monks in the Qin Kingdom were good at fire. Qin Zhaohuan took the lead and threw out a blazing flame, burning in front of the pavilion.
The distance between the flames and the pavilion seemed to be no more than ten feet apart, but they were already two worlds inside and outside the formation. The burning place in the middle was where the shield of the formation was, and a layer of transparent film was vaguely visible, constantly refracting dazzling light in the flames. of light.
Following his attack, the remaining 160 people, in groups of 16, began to attack in turns.
In an instant, the sword light flashed, the wind blew, the fire burned, and the thunder roared, all competing in front of the pavilion, as if they were in the end of the world.
Such a big movement naturally alarmed the Yunxiao Sect disciples who were guarding the formation. Under the leadership of an old man with a white beard, some held talismans and magic weapons in their hands and hid behind the formation to fight back outside; some opened a mechanism in the center of the pavilion and added spiritual stones to it; and there were more than a dozen Zifu people. , formed an assault formation, looking out with evil eyes, waiting for the opponent to have a slight flaw, then they would come out and kill them.
Qin Zhaohuan had the mentality of "not seeking merit but seeking no faults". He would rather attack slower and with less effect, but also defend the battle formation tightly, without giving the opponent a chance.
An hour later, the two sides were fighting lively, but neither of them took any advantage. Qin Zhaohuan felt that half of his mana had been used up. He thought that the Zifu foundations under him were almost at the end of their strength at this time, so he said hello and slowly retreated.
After returning to the main hall and handing over the tokens, Liang Suying did not embarrass them. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and led her men to leave.
Although no Yunxiao Sect disciple was injured in this battle, the price paid by both sides was not low at all. Despite having fourth-level spiritual veins as support, Yunxiao Sect still used fifty high-grade spiritual stones to replenish the formation, and the remaining talisman pills were countless. The total amount of rumbling is worth a hundred souls at least.
As the attacker, Qin's cost was relatively small, which was equivalent to fifty spiritual beings.
This is a war of attrition. A battle of this scale would take place at Tianqin Peak alone no less than five times a day.
This is the cost of five million spirit stones.
However, this kind of battle is far from limited to Tianqin Peak.
…
Tianshui Peak
In the valley, behind a collapsed hall, beside a stream that used to be full of green trees and flowers, and with gurgling water, a large forest was cut down, and was replaced by a large hole dozens of feet wide and a hundred feet deep, looking up at the sky darkly. It was as if a dark spot suddenly appeared on a beautiful face, which was ugly and eye-catching.
Dozens of Masters from the Purple Mansion, led by five golden elixirs, were standing ready, scanning the surroundings with vigilant eyes.
Twenty miles away, there is a white-faced and beardless Nascent Soul Lord hidden in the mountains, with his eyes closed and his consciousness firmly locked here.
Under the large cave, hundreds of foundation-building monks were scattered around like ants, each holding a second-level spiritual hoe and concentrating on digging the soil under their feet.
Their purpose was to dig out a tunnel leading to the fourth-order spiritual veins.
The Yunxiao Sect's mountain-protecting formation uses the fifth-level spiritual vein in the center as the hub, and the thirteen fourth-level spiritual veins on the thirteen main peaks around it as the scaffolding, forming a watertight fifth-level formation that can continuously provide spiritual energy for maintenance.
If such a large formation is directly bombarded from the outside, unless the instantaneous power reaches a blow in the late stage of divine transformation and exceeds the endurance range of the large formation, it is possible to directly break it, otherwise it will be an endless consumption.
Just like the battle at Tianqin Peak.
Few people in the coalition forces are willing to continue the confrontation for a long time, so they adopt a multi-pronged approach. The battle on Tianqin Peak will not stop, and other methods will be found in other places.
One of them is to directly destroy a fourth-level spiritual vein.
