The main purpose of Jinding Sect's encirclement and suppression of monsters this time is to prevent the emergence of high-level monsters, rather than to drive out all the monsters in Chaoyin Mountain. After all, whether it is to train the disciples in the sect or ensure the supply of monster materials, killing all the monsters in Chaoyin Mountain is tantamount to killing the goose that lays the goose to retrieve the eggs, which is of no benefit to the sect.
For such an encirclement and suppression, the Jinding Sect will conduct one every few years. This is not only to temper the disciples and eliminate threats, but also as a means to win over the affiliated sects and show their own strength. Therefore, its experience in this area is not enough. It can be said to be insufficient.
Although the scale of this siege was huge, its essence had not changed. It still followed the Jinding Sect's previous strategy. Disciples with low cultivation levels cooperated with disciples from various affiliated forces to form groups on the periphery to eliminate monsters; The disciples followed the elders in the foundation-building stage and went straight to the depths of Chaoyin Mountain to eliminate the second-level monsters and above.
As for the third-level spiritual beasts, that happened almost a hundred years ago. With Jindingmen and other sects clearing out the monsters every few years, the possibility of third-level monsters appearing is actually quite small. However, these foundation-building elders and elite disciples from various sects who go into the mountains to kill monsters must have various life-saving props with them. Even if they do encounter third-level monsters, they must have ways to deal with them.
Somewhere outside Chaoyin Mountain, a young woman in a light blue dress was suspended in the air. In front of her, several male and female monks, also dressed in blue, were flying up and down to deal with several bone-forging bird monsters. beast.
At this time, a woman in a yellow dress flew beside her, frowning and complaining to her in a low voice.
"Senior Sister, Senior Brother Ling and the others have gone too far. They actually arranged Senior Sister in a place like this."
"Yes, Senior Sister, Senior Sister will not be able to make any contribution at all, let alone allocate resources!"
A young man gathered around and whispered in agreement.
A pair of deep pool-like eyes of the woman in a light green dress flashed. The long sword at her waist was half unsheathed. She lightly flicked the sword with her slender fingers, and the long sword made a soft "clang" sound. Not far away, a big bird that was about to sneak attack from behind was shocked. It slowed down for a moment, and then the disciple next to it reacted and hit it with two spells, hitting it hard on the stomach. A bloody hole fell to the ground, and he could no longer live.
The woman's expression remained unchanged, she sheathed the long sword at her waist, and said with her lips lightly parted: "Ziyi, Zhixue, the matter has come to this point, no matter how much you complain, it's useless. It's better to just let nature take its course. Maybe I have another chance, and it's not in the future." It’s understandable.”
The woman's voice was soft and low, with a reassuring feeling. In the ears of Yao Ziyi and Zhuang Zhixue, it had a somewhat unquestionable flavor.
"Senior sister, but..."
Yao Ziyi wanted to say more, but she saw the senior sister she was talking about turned her head and smiled at her, but the meaning was very obvious - she told her not to say anymore.
Zhuang Zhixue and Yao Ziyi looked at each other and couldn't help but sigh.
The eldest sister is good at everything, but she has a quiet temperament and never wants to compete with others. However, her identity cannot be controlled by her. In this way, some people in the sect are getting closer and closer.
This time, with Senior Sister's abilities, it was inevitable for Pi Ru to follow the core team into the mountains to slay demons. However, the elder responsible for leading the team this time was from the leader's faction, so he casually arranged an "assistant" for Senior Sister. The mission of "encircling and suppressing the surrounding monsters". You must know that the senior sister is young and has reached the ninth level of Qi training. She has to be prepared to start thinking about foundation building. If she cannot get enough contribution points to exchange for good foundation building spiritual items, she will not even be able to talk about foundation building. All will be delayed.
And if Senior Sister's foundation building is delayed, their faction will be even more suppressed by the leader's faction.
The last time they were encircling and suppressing the monsters, they didn't dare to be so blatant. I heard that Master Rong attacked the pill before he was ready. I don't know if it was true.
Zhuang Zhixue secretly raised his head and glanced at the senior sister in front of him, his eyes flickered slightly, and he lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. Yao Ziyi exhaled, took out the long sword angrily, and found a bone forging weapon. The strange bird in the mid-term slashed at random.
Out of sight of the two of them, the senior sister's slender eyebrows frowned slightly, her eyes stared blankly ahead, and for a long time, she let out a thin sigh.
Her name is Liu Yunshu, she is a close disciple of Jinding Sect's foundation-building elder Rong Fangshan, and is also his only living direct disciple.
More than ten years ago, her master Rong Fangshan was defeated in the competition for the 25th generation head of the Jinding Sect. After returning, he was depressed and stayed behind closed doors all day long. Rong Fangshan's faction was originally not as powerful as Elder Wang Xunzhi's faction. After failing in the fight for the throne, they looked like they were severely hit. This caused their faction's reputation to plummet, and even the swords belonging to their faction Guo Yuan, the head of the hall's cabinet, was ignored by the leader. Many disciples have even switched to the leader's sect, or been demoted to outer sect disciples. By now, their sect has been extremely declining.
What outsiders didn't know, but Liu Yunshu knew, was that after her master Rong Fangshan went into seclusion, he was bent on reaching the alchemy stage and reviving the prestige of their sect after he came out of seclusion. This idea is correct, but onlookers know that in Liu Yunshu's view, the failure to compete for the headship seems to have become the inner demon of his master. He has to mention it every time he sees him, especially in order to improve his cultivation. He used all kinds of elixirs and elixirs at all costs, seemingly just to suppress Wang Xunzhi, who had become the leader.
This continued for several years, and Rong Fangshan's cultivation level improved rapidly. He soon accumulated his cultivation level to above the ninth level of the foundation building stage, and could start to attack the core formation stage. The sequelae of improving cultivation in this way are naturally very obvious, that is, the foundation is unstable. Liu Yunshu's eyes flashed, remembering the appearance of his master seven or eight years ago before going into seclusion.
Liu Yunshu had met him once before he went into seclusion at Rongfang Mountain to enter the Dan Formation stage. At that time, his whole body was overflowing with spiritual energy, and his spirit was somewhat unusually high. However, the outward appearance of true energy is a sign that only occurs in real people in the pill-forming stage. Rongfangshan can only build a foundation. There is only one explanation for this situation, which is that its foundation is unstable and has reached the point where it cannot control its own spiritual power.
The danger of entering the Dan Formation Stage in this state can be imagined. Therefore, when he heard that Rongfangshan was going to retreat to enter the Dan Formation stage, Liu Yunshu immediately changed his expression and begged him repeatedly to stabilize his realm first.
At that time, she only felt a strong force holding her up, and saw the master looking at her with a smile, and then sighed and said: "How could I not know the truth you said? It's just that I suddenly gained something this time." , the opportunity to form a pill has arrived. If I miss it, I don’t know how many years I have to wait. It’s better to have a fight. If it succeeds, it can revive the reputation of my new sect and let Wang Xunzhi know that his ancient sect is, after all, Wrong path."
When he said this, Rong Fangshan's eyes shone a little, and his whole body was overflowing with spiritual energy. Liu Yunshu wanted to persuade again, but he only heard him say: "I know all the things outside, and you have suffered a lot these years. I am somewhat sure that I will be my master in this retreat. Please don't persuade me anymore. I will wait for the news about my master." .”
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Yunshu felt a strong wind blowing her up gently and placed her steadily outside the hospital. After that, Rongfangshan went into a state of seclusion and never asked about the outside world.
