The Jinding Tower envoy came here this time, firstly for the reward, and secondly for the secret cave in Baizong Mountain.
That is a secret place that has not been seen for many years. There must be countless treasures of heaven and earth, and the Golden Cauldron Tower will naturally be tempted.
Not only the Jindinglou family, but other sects in Suilingju City also had the same plan. The He family and the Jiuyou Sect also sent people to Dingbei at this time and stayed at Dashun Trading House and Taiqingmen respectively.
"Four or more big monsters?" After listening to Hai Tianxiao's explanation, the Jinding Tower envoy frowned.
"Originally, I thought there were only two, but then when the fierce battle was in full swing, a more powerful one suddenly appeared. After the battle, before the two injured monsters returned to the secret cave, someone heard the roar of the monster in the cave. , and judging from its sound, this one is even more powerful than the previous one." Master Fudo said solemnly.
"According to this reasoning, there may be more great demons in this secret cave, and we don't even rule out the existence of sixth-level high-level demons." The messenger frowned deeper.
Even Zhou Yang was a little frightened when he heard this.
A sixth-level high-level person is equivalent to a master of the Golden Elixir Dzogchen! If there really is such a powerful monster, can Dingbeicheng be saved?
"Recently, Suiling City has not been peaceful. Yufeng Mountain was turned upside down by a group of cultivators of unknown origins, which caused strong dissatisfaction among the seventh-level transformed demons, and almost led to a war between humans and demons. Later, several forces and the transformed demons The demons reached a tacit agreement, and each faction was allowed to enter the inner mountain to eliminate those unknown cultivators." After a moment of silence, the messenger suddenly changed the subject and said solemnly.
"My subordinates have already scratched the surface of this matter, but what happened next?" Hai Tianxiao asked.
"Alas, Yufeng Mountain is too big, stretching for more than a million miles. The armies of various factions have been pursuing it for several months, but they have only wiped out seven or eight thousand people. Moreover, we have also lost several golden elixir masters, including the golden elixir master. Perfect and strong.
This aroused the anger of the senior officials of various factions, and a large number of additional manpower were deployed to step up the elimination. It is reported that there are still tens of thousands or even more unknown practitioners wandering in the mountains, and the search is not going well. "The messenger sighed.
"So difficult to deal with! Have the identities of those cultivators been found out?" Hai Tianxiao said in surprise.
"We couldn't ask anything from the mouths of the captured cultivators. Their memories seemed to have been erased. However, we found something suspicious in the items they carried with them."
The messenger took a sip of wine and then said: "Many of those items are only found in the Dark Continent, so we seriously suspect that these people are from the Dark Continent."
The messenger's words shocked Hai Tianxiao and the two of them. They knew that the Hezhou border was tight, but they never expected that people from the Dark Continent would attack Suiling City so quickly. That would be such a big deal.
"In this matter, the various factions in Sui Ling are surprisingly unanimous. They want people to help and money to pay. They have only one purpose, to eliminate the Dark Continent cultivators who entered Yufeng Mountain as soon as possible. So far, the armies of various factions that have penetrated deep into the mountain, It has already reached three hundred thousand.”
Zhou Yang was chatting with the two sisters and listening attentively. He knew many of the things the messenger said and had experienced them himself.
However, he did not expect that those people from the Dark Continent would be so difficult to deal with. An army of 300,000 people could not even wipe out tens of thousands of people, and it was also a home battle. Isn't it too embarrassing?
"Not only did people from the Dark Continent appear in Lingcheng after me, but also unidentified cultivators were found near Sheri City, Liehuo City, and Lingyan City in the west, with an ominous number." The three cities mentioned by the envoy, They are all giant cities in the east and west of Hezhou.
"This...could it be that there is a serious loophole in border defense?" Master Fudo asked in surprise.
"It is possible, but even if there is a loophole, it is impossible for such people to sneak into the hinterland of the mainland. I would like to speculate whether they have opened up another channel to enter Hezhou?" Hai Tianxiao frowned and analyzed.
"The southern border is hundreds of millions of miles long. Although there is a huge amount of heavenly troops defending it, the force is still weak. In addition, the recent frequent wars have caused a sharp increase in casualties. Therefore, the alliance is in urgent need of recruiting soldiers. Originally, the battlefields of the two continents were They are mainly concentrated near the Shenqi Mountains, and there are very few people from the Dark Continent in other places.
But things are different now. It is said that the Dark Continent has been abnormal in recent years. It has continuously increased its troops to the border. The battle line has also broken through the scope of the Divine Contract Mountains and expanded rapidly, so some weakly defended areas have been quickly broken through. The above should be the main reasons why dark cultivators appear in the hinterland of Hezhou. Of course, the possibility of opening up new channels is not ruled out. "
"Alas, this year there was a blood moon celestial phase, which caused the disaster of swordsmen. It seems that this statement is true!" Hai Tianxiao sighed.
"Yes, once the heavenly army cannot stop the attack of the Dark Continent, Hezhou will definitely fall into war. Without strong strength, survival will be a problem. Even people like me and the Golden Core will not be spared!" The messenger said not without worry.
"Previously, I was quite critical of the forced conquest of the Heavenly Army. But now, after hearing what the messenger said, I realize that the Heavenly Army Alliance is also under great pressure!" Hai Tianxiao couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.
"Yes, everyone everywhere is afraid that their strength will be damaged. There are too many cultivators who are unwilling to be recruited. But if the skin is gone, how can General Mao be attached? If the borders are lost, can the homeland be preserved? It is as powerful as the heavenly army. They can't stop it. With the strength of our factions, we are totally vulnerable." The messenger nodded.
Zhou Yang and the other three also stopped talking and turned their heads to listen quietly.
After hearing this, they were worried about Hezhou and at the same time admired the Tianjun very much.
The reason why Hezhou is stable and developed is because of these people who silently persisted and fought one battle after another, thus blocking countless attacks from the Dark Continent. Without them, Hezhou would have fallen into chaos long ago.
But there is a key question, why did they invade Hezhou in a large scale?
Zhou Yang suddenly felt that everything he had done for Zhou Tianzong had become so illusory, as if it was all in vain.
He was startled by this idea. How could it be useless? If you pay, you must be rewarded. Didn't you become the deputy city lord and deputy sect leader?
There was silence at the wine table.
"The war in Yufeng Mountain is tense, and each faction can no longer send too many experts to come. If there are only some big monsters below the sixth-level intermediate level in the secret cave of Baizong Mountain, we can consider a few joining forces to enter. But if there are six If there is a higher-level existence, then..." The messenger brought the topic back.
Everyone sitting here understood that the two topics before and after the envoy were not contradictory, but closely related.
"All factions unite?" Hai Tianxiao asked, raising his eyebrows.
"When we arrive, Jinding Tower has already communicated with the He family and Jiuyou Sect. Let's get a feel for the situation first. If things go well, we envoys will see to the solution. If the matter is difficult, each of the three families will send at most one Jin. The master of alchemy and perfection comes.
Before that, you continue to increase your investigation efforts. If there are only one or two high-level sixth-level monsters in the secret cave, and masters from the three sects come, it will be easier to deal with them. But if there are more than two ends, then the matter must be considered in the long run. "The messenger nodded.
