Liu Qingyi felt embarrassed standing in the crowd. After seeing several people praising him, he looked at Bu Jiu, who was at the peak of the sixth level of Tongyuan Realm from time to time, and a sudden realization suddenly arose in his heart.
Seeing that these senior brothers and sisters highly praised me and paid great attention to Bu Jiu who was about to advance to the late stage of Tongyuan Realm, but they seemed to ignore the other early and mid-stage disciples. It was too much to treat him separately like this. obvious. The so-called children of the Xian family are actually very realistic. The picky behavior of these senior brothers and sisters made Liu Qingyi complain endlessly.
Immortals Long and Tiger, Lei Lei and others praised her for a while, but when they saw that Liu Qingyi's nose was not a nose and his eyes were not his eyes, they all stopped inexplicably.
Only Zeng Manting was always lukewarm towards Liu Qingyi. She cast her eyes towards Li Gongjun from time to time, not knowing what she was thinking.
The group of people from the Heavenly Beast Sect met again after their farewell. After some not very warm greetings, they soon started chatting about other topics.
Xiao Jing did not see He Yuanji coming back for a long time. After some questioning, he found out that he had been called by the senior officials of the Immortal Kingdom to discuss important matters. Several people heard the speculation from the Tiger Immortal Qu Liangjun that the Kuiyunling Mountain and River Formation had been deployed for such a long time. Here, the Dasheng Immortal Kingdom has been on the defensive. This time the elders from all realms are summoned to discuss matters. I am afraid that there will be big moves in the near future.
When Bu Jiu asked about the recent battle situation, Qu Liangjun slowly returned to the topic, and the scene gradually became quiet.
It turned out that when the Kuiyunling Mountain and River Formation was assembled that day, it was desperately blocked by the Moon Worshiping Immortal Kingdom. The Dasheng Immortal Kingdom made arrangements in advance. The top leaders of the Holy Talisman Sect almost mobilized, leading the high-level monks from the Four Realms and Three Yang Realms above. , fought fiercely for half a day at all costs, and finally drove out all the Moon Worshiping monks who had invaded.
In this fierce battle to defend the formation, the side of Dasheng Immortal Kingdom suffered a lot of losses. Not only were the blood of two Zifu Realm elders spilled on the spot, but many Sanyang and Ningdan Realm monks also perished, including Tong Yuan, who was guarding the formation on the outside. The battle among the realm monks was also fierce.
Because the Formation Eyes and Formation Sections were attacked at the same time, and the formations defended by the Tongyuan Realm monks were distributed on the outermost edge, even if they used the Letter Talisman Technique, they often could not get timely support. As a result, after the war, the Immortal Kingdom took stock and found that the Tongyuan Realm monks from all the major immortal sects in the four realms suffered the heaviest losses.
It was also because there were too many casualties among the Tongyuan Realm monks in that battle. In order to preserve the roots for the major sects, the senior officials of the Immortal Kingdom only sent out the Sanyang Realm and Ningdan Realm monks to chase and kill them for a period of time after the formation was formed. The defeated monks from the Moon Worshiping Immortal Kingdom allowed these Tongyuan Realm monks to rest for a few days under the protection of the Kuiyunling Formation.
Recently, after some discussions among the senior officials of the Immortal Kingdom, they decided to cancel the original team formation based on realms and instead use sects as a system for mobile deployment.
In this situation where monks from all walks of life are experiencing combat attrition, returning to the sect-based combat mode will not only release the combat power of several levels of the major immortal sects, but also enable the high-level monks of each immortal sect to fight against those under their sects. Providing certain protection to low-level disciples can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
"You must know that the sect is the system..." Qu Liangjun said with a mysterious face: "It is also to prepare for the next stage of the task."
"The next stage...what is the mission?" Xiao Jamyan asked sharply.
Seeing everyone's curious expressions, Qu Liangjun whispered: "It is said that Beiyuan Slope, not far from the northwest of Kuiyun Ridge, is the location of a recently discovered medium-sized mineral vein. This time the Moon Worshiping Immortal Kingdom invades After that, the Beiyuanpo ore vein was also taken away. I wonder how it is being mined by the Moon Worshipers now? If it is destructive mining and the ore roots are directly mined first, I am afraid that there will be very little left of the Beiyuanpo ore vein. If there is any Sequential mining only starts from the peripheral scattered ores, maybe it is still a piece of fat, and it won't be too much of a loss to take it back at this time."
Xiao Jingyan said with a thoughtful look on his face: "According to this, could it be that the next stage of the mission is to recover the mine veins?"
Qu Liangjun nodded and said: "If the ore vein is mined from the outside, it is the right time to take advantage of the situation to recapture it!"
Li Deqiang was curious and asked: "Why is there not much loss when mining from the outside?"
Yan Kuan was sitting aside, listening to Qu Liangjun's speech very seriously. When he heard Li Deqiang interjecting a question, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Idiot, didn't I say that there is such a difference if you move the mineral roots."
Dragon Immortal Zhao Xianyu explained at this time: "You are right, the mineral roots are indeed the key to the collection of spiritual essence stones. The mineral roots of each mineral vein are rich in large amounts of high-quality spiritual essence stones. Not only can you obtain the best spiritual essence stones. Yuan Stone and high-grade Spiritual Yuan Stone, if it is a larger vein, it is even possible to mine the Spiritual Source. However, in this way, the mineral root will be damaged, the entire vein will lose its regeneration ability, and the scattered ores on the periphery will also stop producing new ones. Spiritual Essence Stone. A living vein gradually depletes and eventually becomes a dead vein. The original stock of ore will gradually be exhausted with continuous mining. And if you only collect slowly and step by step from the periphery, do not rush to mine. Roots can always ensure that this vein is a living vein, which can continuously produce new piles of scattered ore to maintain the output of this vein for a longer period of time. Even theoretically, as long as the soil strength can keep up, , this mineral vein can achieve the goal of never drying up.”
Bu Jiu frowned and said: "If this is the case, it is better not to damage the mineral roots. It is most cost-effective to collect loose minerals from the periphery."
Yan Kuan slapped his thigh and said, "It's not that bad. Now that it's in the hands of the Moon Worshipers, they won't leave the mine unexplored! From this point of view, I'm afraid there's no point in seizing the mine at this time."
Yan Kuan's words aroused the same sentiments from everyone around him. When everyone was talking about it, a few people even shouted out that it was a pity. Even the few people who returned were silent.
Liu Qingyi heard Qu Liangjun mention the spiritual source, and then thought of the purple locket necklace in her spiritual ring that she got from Qin Mengli, and felt a burst of pride in her heart, "Oh, isn't it the spiritual source that only large mineral veins have? Well, I just live together, there is nothing strange about it."
Qu Liangjun on the side pondered and said: "That's not necessarily true. I heard Elder He mention it last time that Beiyuanpo Fairy Kingdom has been sending small groups of troops to harass them. In short, it just makes their harvest not so smooth. This time Kui Yunling has gone through another battle, and perhaps judging from this, it is not known that the Moon Worshiping Immortal Kingdom has not yet had time to mine the mineral roots."
Liu Qingshan nodded and said: "I have also heard Master say that there seems to be a constant struggle on the Beiyuan Slope. Because Kuiyun Ridge must be taken first, there is only a small team on the Beiyuan Slope to contain it. Can it be done? It’s unknown how it will affect the mining of mineral roots.”
Lei Lei directly concluded, "If this is the case, I am afraid that if we take Kui Yunling this time, we will really have to attack Beiyuan Slope."
Zeng Manting said coldly: "Nowadays, the major immortal sects have suffered a lot of losses. Even if we take Kuiyun Ridge, I don't think there will be another war immediately. It's better for you to recover from your injuries first. What else can I say about Beiyuan Slope? It's really a bit difficult." It’s not practical anymore.”
Qu Liangjun looked at Zeng Manting and said: "Junior sister Zeng doesn't know something. I heard a disciple of the Shengfu Sect say last time that the Immortal Kingdom has come with all four realms. Taking Kuiyun Ridge is not the ultimate goal. It is to use Kuiyun Ridge. As a key point, we are waiting for an opportunity to fight for Ni Huangzhuang and advance into the Northland. Although we have suffered a lot of losses in taking Kui Yunling this time, the losses to the Moon Worshiping Immortal Kingdom will be small? In my opinion, both sides have suffered losses while taking a breather. In this situation, taking advantage of the situation to attack other key resource areas is a plan to win by surprise."
Zhao Xianyu thought for a long time and nodded: "Junior Brother Qu's words are reasonable. I also feel that it is better to defend than to attack. Once we hit the painful spot of the Moon Worshipers, the initiative will be in our hands."
Wu Yaqi didn't speak for a long time, and now she smiled and said: "It's really easy for you to talk. Now that Elder He has gone to discuss matters with the senior officials of the Immortal Kingdom, everything will be clear when he comes back. Let's not worry about this. It’s better to be leisurely and meditate as soon as possible to regain some strength.”
After Wu Yaqi finished speaking, the returning people looked at each other a few times, and then sat in a circle back to back in a tacit understanding. They held two bright yellow spirit stones in their hands and began to close their eyes and adjust their breathing, completely ignoring their surroundings. Prick up your ears and listen to the strange Tongyuan Realm disciples.
Yan Kuan saw the behavior of several people and felt that the boss was not interesting. He turned around and walked to the side of the grass to sit down and began to play with the wooden box containing the sheng and leeches.
Li Deqiang followed Yan Kuan, kicking his butt curiously, and looked at the wooden box in his hand. He saw a small green insect in the wooden box with its head raised slightly, and Yan Kuan closed the lid. .
Yan Kuan looked at Li Deqiang, who was approaching, and shouted, "What are you doing?"
Li Deqiang chuckled and lowered his voice: "Elder brother, I think since the sect is the system this time, if they really want to attack Beiyuanpo, they won't leave us behind, right?"
Yan Kuan blinked and said: "This..." He really hadn't thought about this section, but now that Li Deqiang reminded him, he found this sentence very interesting. Thinking that Beiyuan Slope is full of Lingyuan Stones, if there are sect elders and senior brothers and sisters from the Ningdan and Sanyang realms to protect them, going to Beiyuan Slope will be a big deal.
"It's time for them to take us with them. Since we are controlled by the sect, we will naturally act together." Yan Kuan said as he rubbed his hands, and the wooden box in his hands had been put into the spirit ring at some point.
"I think so." Li Deqiang said with great certainty after sitting down next to Yan Kuan.
Yan Kuan looked at the excited Li Deqiang and said, "Yunyu, I heard that you recently bought a new spiritual treasure at the trading market. Is this relevant?"
Li Deqiang said happily: "Hey, Wang Tianshui and I did make a good treasure."
Yan Kuan stretched out his hand and said, "Bring it to me and take a look."
Li Deqiang looked at Yan Kuan's outstretched hand and felt a chill in his heart for no reason. He put on a bitter face and said in a bitter voice: "This... senior brother, I spent all my savings on this spiritual stone plate." Yes, now there is nothing left.”
Yan Kuan was a little impatient, raised his outstretched hand and said: "You idiot, show it to me quickly. Do you think I will covet a mere spiritual treasure of yours?"
Li Deqiang felt relieved and said with a smile: "Senior Brother, that's not...not that serious." As he said that, he took out a green and yellow small umbrella and handed it over.
Yan Kuan took it and took a look, then lifted it up and shook it twice. He saw the small green and yellow umbrella floating lightly in the air. He looked carefully and felt that the two colors of light on the umbrella were thick and concise, as if they were defensive. His strength was extraordinary, and while he was envious in his heart, he also said in surprise: "Hey, don't you have a cymbal orchid suit to protect yourself? Why did you buy this thing?"
Li Deqiang smiled and replied: "Hey, the more defensive spirit treasures, the better. That Cymbal Lanyi is just a last resort."
Yan Kuan said in a muffled voice: "Yunyu, you are rejecting a good idea!"
"Hehe, that's not the case." Li Deqiang smiled coquettishly and said in a low voice: "Elder brother, I see that your cymbal orchid clothes were destroyed by someone in Xiaofang Mountain last time. Now that you have come here and got so many spiritual essence stones, it should be right. Add one or two defensive spiritual treasures to protect yourself."
A bitter look appeared on Yan Kuan's face when he heard this. He glanced at Liu Qingyi not far away, and finally resisted answering.
Some people died, but not completely...
