Thousands of miles of yellow sand and desolation!
As far as the eye can see, it is all yellow gravel.
Rumor has it that this place was not like this countless years ago.
At that time, the water and grass were plentiful and the mountains were beautiful.
Until a thousand years ago, the Nine Thunder Mountains rose from the ground to resist the power of heaven. Under the thunder, the powerful power of thunder over time shattered the soil of the mountains and rivers within thousands of miles and turned it into countless gravels.
Even if the sea changes and the mountains and rivers change, this place is still struck by thunder all the time.
In this way, over time it became a golden desert thousands of miles away.
Moreover, it is different from the secular desert.
This place is a desert formed by the Nine Thunder Mountains. There are no flowers, trees, animals, or monsters on it.
Throughout the desert, mounds of earth rise one after another, like a sea of sand, stirring all the time.
Without the blessing of wind control, ordinary Qi refining monks would be wrapped up in the quicksand and buried deep in it.
Even foundation-building monks must always be careful about getting involved.
Luo Chen lives in the center of the team.
He looked around, assessing the strength of this team.
There are over 10,000 people, mainly monks in the late stage of Qi refining.
But the number of foundation-building cultivators among them is also in the thousands.
This is almost enough to compare with a large amount of golden elixir.
It is even said that ordinary Jindan sects cannot gather so many foundation-building cultivators. Only Qingdan Valley and Sword Sect in the Jade Cauldron Domain have such foundation.
"The four sects are headed by the vassals under their command as the main force, and there are also many casual cultivators who think they are powerful."
"If such a war breaks out in an all-round way, even if I am very powerful, it will be difficult to ensure that nothing goes wrong, and I, Luo Tianhui, have over a hundred people..."
Compared to the excitement of others, Luo Chen seemed a little silent.
In my heart, I was even more pessimistic.
While he remained silent, the army of monks continued without stopping and would soon arrive at the Sixth Mountain.
Boom!
Suddenly, a sound of thunder and thunder rang through my ears.
Luo Chen looked up and couldn't help being shocked.
In sight, nine steep and solitary peaks towered over the yellow sand plain, one after another.
Stepping on golden quicksand, with dark clouds overhead.
One after another, bright white lightnings like snakes and dragons trembled in the void like teeth and claws.
"Stop it first!"
"The thunderstorm is releasing. It will last about ten breaths, and then we will go into the mountains."
"Remember, the magical weapons used by each family to identify themselves are equipped with lightning protection arrays. Don't lose them!"
Master Jindan's voice came from the center of the army.
Luo Chen clenched the wooden sign in his hand.
This object is pitch black in color and gloomy. It is a second-level lightning protection spirit tree. I don’t know how Luoyun Sect can produce so many in batches.
In the past, only Jian Zong could produce this stuff in large quantities for miners to mine in Ji Lei Jiu Mountain for a long time.
After a short wait.
A hot breeze blew by.
The lightning and thunderbolts in the sky disappeared, and the dark clouds above gradually disappeared.
But it just disappeared. Everyone knew that within a month, a large number of dark clouds would accumulate again, harboring thunderstorms.
"Into the mountains!"
With an order, tens of thousands of monks turned into two streams of light and entered the fifth and sixth mountains respectively.
These are the two mountains currently controlled by the four sect alliances.
There are seven remaining, and except for the Ninth Mountain, which is not suitable for monks to stay there, all six are under the control of the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect.
According to rumors, the two Nascent Soul Masters had an agreement that once the Luoyun Sect was completely driven out of Ji Lei Jiu Mountain, they would be declared defeated.
vice versa!
With many years of experience in running the Nine Mountains, Jian Zong suffered a slight loss in numbers and lost four Thunder Mountains except in the early stages of the war. In the following days, they began to exert their strength and attack fiercely, almost beating the four sect alliances to the point where they could not hold their heads up.
The Seventh Mountain and the Eighth Mountain, which were finally conquered before, have also been lost one after another in the past two years.
Currently, the situation on the four sect alliance's side is extremely critical.
Rumor has it that the Luoyun Sect has developed a batch of puppets that are not afraid of thunder and lightning and can easily fight in the Thunder Mountain, and they will be shipped to them for use soon.
By then, it might be the time for the Luoyun Sect to launch a counterattack.
It is precisely because of this that the four sect alliances are currently guarding the remaining two Thunder Mountains.
…
"Phew, it's finally here!"
"Thousands of miles of quicksand is so golden that it hurts your eyes if you look at it for a long time."
"Are we still stationed at the same location as last time?"
As soon as Luo Chenfu landed, he heard noisy discussions around him.
He didn't care about this, but quietly waited for Tantai Xun's arrangements.
"Don't worry, my master has already arranged everything. Once they finish handing over, just go there."
Tantai Xun's voice reached my ears.
Luo Chen nodded.
Next, it was to quietly watch the handover of various stations in the Sixth Mountain.
Some people go into the mountains, and naturally some people come out to rest.
The group of monks who had been stationed here for several months slowly flew out of the mountain one by one with tired expressions.
Xu Huanzhen stood beside Luo Chen and whispered to him the taboos of fighting in Jileijiu Mountain.
"Thunder Mountain has been infiltrated for many years, and the power of thunder is everywhere. It is violent and manic. It is a low-level defense type formation and cannot be used at all."
"Currently, there are three large-scale defensive formations deployed in the Sixth Mountain, which are as high as the fourth level. However, the defensive effect is only equivalent to that of the ordinary third-level defensive formations."
"The three formations were jointly arranged by Luoyun Sect and Ailao Mountain formation masters."
"As long as there is no strong attack from the Jindan enemy, we can sit on the advantageous location and defend ourselves against foreign enemies."
Luo Chen nodded.
This information was basically consistent with what Min Longyu told him.
Ji Lei Jiu Shan is actually not very big.
A mountain is about the same size as Danxia Peak.
But a mountain of this size cannot be covered by even a fourth-level defensive formation. It would take three, and even the effect would be greatly reduced.
This shows how harsh the environment of this battlefield is.
"In addition, when fighting here, you must be careful when encountering monks with thunder spirit roots, or those who are good at using thunder magic. The strength they can explode is far beyond normal."
"The Sword Sect has three sword cultivators who are good at thunder. Two of them are in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, and the other is in the late stage of Foundation Establishment. They are both very strong. There is also a master of Thunder Technique in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment in the Yan League. His real name is Unknown, Tao name is Yan Leizi."
"This is their portrait. If the president encounters them, try not to quarrel with them."
Xu Huanzhen took out several portraits and showed them to Luo Chen.
After Luo Chen remembered it carefully, he asked casually.
"In the alliance, are there any experts who are good at thunder?"
"have!"
Xu Huanzhen quietly pointed at a man with an unruly appearance and curly hair in the army of monks.
Luo Chen looked at it, instant noodle head?
"The human name is Shining Ling'er, who comes from Ailao Mountain and is in the late stage of foundation building. He has the Thunder Spirit Diamond magic weapon in his hand, which is extremely powerful. Every time he meets a sword cultivator from the Sword Sect, he is always the first to attack him without any hesitation. Fear the other person.”
"There is also a Leilinggen monk in Qingdan Valley who possesses a magic weapon called Dark Cloud Miasma, which is extremely suitable for large-scale operations."
"In addition, in the fifth mountain, the Luoyun Sect also has a master of thunder, which makes the Sword Sect extremely fearful."
Speaking of which.
Xu Huanzhen suddenly stopped.
He smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, we, Luo Tianhui, also have a master of Thunder Dao, who was included in the list of low-level monks to be wary of by the Sword Sect."
"Min Longyu?" Luo Chen said.
Xu Huanzhen nodded, "Yes, although Elder Min does not have thunder spirit roots, he can draw the power of thunder with the help of materials and formations. Previously, five thunders blasted the top of the formation, instantly killing five foundation-building cultivators. , is still widely circulated in the Nine Mountains of Ji Lei. The name of Lei Zhenzi makes countless people fear it!"
Luo Chen also nodded with emotion.
He always felt that Min Longyu didn't need to feel so guilty.
In that night battle, he had already done his best.
The name Lei Zhenzi is a perfect interpretation of his achievements in that battle.
Thinking about the formation plate that Min Longyu gave him before leaving in his storage bag, as well as a specially prepared formation, Luo Chen felt confident.
Although Lei Zhenzi is no longer on the battlefield.
But the crystallization of his formation is still there.
As long as the environment is right...
Luo Chen looked around subconsciously, and he didn't know whether the dark mountain was the color of the thunder and fire bombardment all the year round, or whether it was the color of the blackness caused by the blood of countless monks.
Such an environment is not suitable for performing that formation.
"at last!"
Xu Huanzhen looked solemn, "President, please remember not to fly too high when fighting on Leishan Mountain."
Luo Chen's brows twitched, "Easily hacked?"
"Yes! The power of thunder accumulated by Leishan for countless years is too terrifying. Even if it looks extremely calm, no one can tell when a bolt of lightning will suddenly fall from the sky. If you fly too high during a battle, it is easy to Become a living target. You know, there are no living creatures in Ji Lei Jiu Mountain!"
Ordinary thunder and lightning are actually not a big threat to immortal cultivators.
It’s not the tribulation thunder when Nascent Soul overcomes the tribulation.
Some powerful people can even seize the thunder of heaven and earth, make magic weapons and weapons, temper their bodies, etc.
But if you are suddenly struck during a battle, the brief paralyzing stalemate will instantly change the situation of the battle.
It would be ridiculous if he fell because he flew too high and was hit during the battle.
Xu Huanzhen said a lot in one breath.
He told Luo Chen almost all the experiences and lessons he had learned in the past two years.
Luo Chen looked at some ignorant and eager casual cultivators.
It is estimated that many people do not know these experiences.
"Tell these things to the brothers of Luo Tianhui too!"
"Well, I've already arranged for someone to go and tell you."
While they were talking.
The handover in the Sixth Mountain has gradually come to an end.
Luo Chen's expression suddenly changed, his gaze shifted, and he looked towards a small group of troops.
Lianyun Business Alliance!
There, a woman looked at him blankly.
Luo Chen nodded slightly.
The woman smiled bitterly and nodded.
"Fellow Daoist Li, what's wrong?"
Nangong Jin asked doubtfully in the team that was flying slowly out.
Li Yixian sighed, "I thought Luo Chen could stay out of this war because he had the title of Danchenzi. But I didn't expect that he would also be involved."
Nangong Jin was stunned and subconsciously looked in the direction of Luo Tianhui.
But he saw Luo Chen's back, following the guidance of the Ice Castle monk, and entered the mountain.
He murmured: "Even a well-known alchemy master in his field has been sucked into this whirlpool. We, ordinary people, should also have such an end."
Li Yixian smiled bitterly and was about to say something.
An old voice sounded from behind.
"Don't underestimate Dan Chenzi. The station they went to is clearly one of the safest places."
"Ice Castle values him far more than we do!"
Li Yixian and Nangong Jin were startled.
Then he saluted respectfully.
"I've met the Great Elder!"
Elder Lianyun waved his hand tiredly, "No need to be so polite, go back and rest!"
While speaking, he looked at Luo Chen's leaving figure, with an envious look on his face.
Different locations face completely different pressures.
If Lianyun Business Alliance had such treatment, the losses would not be so heavy.
However, in two years, the Lianyun Merchant Alliance, which previously had nine foundation-building cultivators, now has only five members left.
Even Zhou Qing, a mid-stage foundation-building monk whom he was very optimistic about, died unfortunately.
If this continues, after the war is over, how many people from his Lianyun Merchant Alliance will be able to return to Tianlan Immortal City alive?
"That's it!"
"I hope what Tian Xingzi said is true, otherwise my trip will be almost in vain."
Sighing, Elder Lianyun flew away from the Sixth Mountain tiredly.
…
Luo Tianhui's mission was to guard a mountainside at the back, where there was a rare tree.
Lightning strikes wood!
Second-level materials are the most widely used materials among thunder-type magic weapons.
Relatively expensive, but not uncommon.
Some large sects have the power to draw thunder and the means to cultivate lightning-strike wood.
This place is at the back, not in front of the battlefield, and the mountain is higher.
The resources produced are not scarce.
It can be said that this place is definitely the station where the enemy has the least interest.
Unlike other vassal forces, it is either a transportation thoroughfare, a formation hub, or a precious resource production point.
"Are you satisfied?" Tantai Xun asked.
Luo Chen retracted his gaze and said sincerely: "To be honest, it's a bit beyond my expectation."
He thought that Master Jueqing would take great care of Luo Tianhui.
But I didn’t expect it to be so big!
This place, in addition to all of the above, is also great for escaping.
Even if an enemy attacks the mountain, it will be the monks in front who will bear it.
Tantai Hao shook his head, "It's good, but my master also paid a heavy price. Almost 70% of the top-grade blood-burning pills you refined before were traded to Luoyun Sect and Uncle Yinyue."
Luo Chen raised his eyebrows!
Dry!
He asked why even though he had refined a large amount of blood-burning pills in the past two years, the situation of the Jueqing lineage on the battlefield had not improved at all.
Even Luo Tianhui was assigned a "relatively safe" location.
It turns out that that girl Jueqing didn't use all of those top-quality blood-burning pills at all.
Instead, they have been hoarding it until now and then trading it with others.
For a moment, some anger rose in his heart.
But as Tantai Xun flew towards the mountain peak, that anger gradually died out.
If it were a different place, I would probably do the same thing.
It was initially traded, but it was just a slightly better life-saving elixir.
Valuable, but not that important.
But now that the war is becoming more and more intense, the Burning Blood Pill not only has the ability to save lives, it can temporarily increase combat power by several percent, which can completely reverse a small-scale battle.
If you trade it at this time, you will naturally get more benefits.
He even took care of Luo Tianhui's side.
"I still underestimated these golden elixir masters."
"It seems that everyone is cultivating behind closed doors, but in fact they see the interests more clearly than anyone else."
"I missed her just now, but I was a bit pretentious."
Looking around, Luo Chen shook his head.
This place should have been one of Luo Tianhui's earliest destinations.
"That's all, let's settle down now that we've come."
"There is no point in worrying about these things. Dealing with the next war is the most important thing."
While chanting, Luo Chen took out the Eighteen Formation Disks from his storage bag!
