Chapter 703 Mission Conditions
At this time, the monks defending the city are mainly composed of two parts, one part is the resident monks mixed with the Holy Land of Qianting.
The other part is the monks who participated in the defense of the city because of their reward.
Most of these are casual cultivators, and a few of them are monks from small families and sects.
At this time, the latter looked at the scene in front of him. Although there was no real action, many people couldn't help but feel sad.
Then, a question emerged in their hearts.
If these casual cultivators outside the city were replaced by officials of the Qianting Court, or successors of the Holy Land, or monks from a large sect or aristocratic family, would the city guards still do this?
No one spoke, but when they raised this question, they already had the answer in their hearts.
The monks who guarded the city were indifferent even if the scattered monks in the city were allowed to beg and abuse. Although some monks sympathized, they dared not speak because of the majesty of the court.
Dare to be angry but dare not speak.
In the desperate gazes of dozens of casual cultivators, extremely brilliant auras suddenly bloomed.
As if ten thousand arrows were fired at once, one after another monsters' innate spells bombarded them, and the terrifying power fluctuations spread all over the field.
"Whoosh~"
Among these casual cultivators, the highest level of cultivation is only in the foundation building stage, so how can they resist the simultaneous bombardment of thousands of monsters' innate spells?
Even if it's just a part of it.
"Boom"
Any resistance would be powerless under the beast tide.
In less than half a breath, dozens of casual cultivators outside the city were submerged in the colorful aura of magic.
No bones left.
"Sure enough, Qianting's style hasn't changed at all."
Beside him, Guo Poyun murmured to himself with a gloomy expression.
He also came from an ordinary casual cultivator, and he was used to that kind of hard life in the past. Although he joined the Commoner League and the Purple Scarf Army successively, he found an organization.
But for the difficulties of casual cultivators, they can completely empathize with them.
Therefore, I feel deeply angry at Qianting Holy Land's behavior.
Although it is understandable to sacrifice for the sake of the overall situation.
But in that case just now, the beast horde was still a certain distance away from the city wall, so dozens of casual cultivators could enter the city and then activate the formation without any problems.
But in the face of the so-called "comrades", the commander of the city guards in Qianting did not hesitate at all, and did not care about the life and death of ordinary casual cultivators at all.
"Guo Daoyou, be careful with your words."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yu turned around and scolded in a low voice.
If these words are heard by monk Qianting, it may cause a lot of trouble, and they must not be said in public.
Realizing something was wrong, Guo Poyun nodded lightly, loosened his clenched fists, and seemed to have returned to normal.
But in his heart, he was still extremely restless.
In today's world, there is no room for casual cultivators.
Not to mention the stable development of the purchasing industry, it is even difficult to earn enough spiritual stones for daily practice through one's own efforts.
And some people are born with no worries about food and clothing, even if they don't work hard, they can still have resources that ordinary casual practitioners can't imagine.
In fact, at the beginning, Zhongyu was not like this.
But I don't know when it started, the oppression of casual cultivators by the Zongmen family became more and more serious, constantly squeezing the living space of casual cultivators, and monopolizing the resources of cultivating immortals intensified.
Later, one after another, the Radical Loose Cultivation Organizations came into being.
Some of the most radical and extreme casual repair organizations, in order to change the current situation in the Central Territory, even cooperate secretly with the Yaozu.
Looking at the scene where dozens of casual cultivators were wiped out, Guo Poyun couldn't help thinking of that question that he had thought about countless times.
"In this middle domain, what exactly are casual cultivators?"
In fact, he already had the answer in his heart.
Every time he thought about this question, Guo Poyun felt more and more ironic, and felt that the four-character slogan was extremely empty.
Although there are more casual cultivators, they are like wandering souls. Even if they stay in a place for hundreds of years, it is difficult to give birth to a sense of belonging.
When I met a monk from a family of the Zongmen, although he also praised him as a Taoist friend.
But many casual practitioners know from the bottom of their hearts that they are not true "comrades". Although class is invisible and intangible, it is an insurmountable moat in their hearts.
Dozens of casual cultivators were wiped out. No matter how turbulent people's hearts were, the war would not stop.
"Whizzing"
After entering the distance that low-level monsters can attack, tens of thousands of monsters continue to approach, while releasing various innate spells.
Looking around, one after another innate spells formed a colorful torrent, bombarding the "Sunset Immortal City" densely.
Although a single low-level spell is inconspicuous, the torrent of tens of thousands of low-level spells is so powerful that even Nascent Soul cultivators will look sideways.
At the same time, the cultivators defending the city also sacrificed magic tools and spells to fight against the torrent of spells from the monsters.
The defensive array moved accordingly, triggering several fourth-order attacks, falling into the spreading beast tide.
"Boom"
The power of the spells and implements was surging endlessly, and the huge roar shook the whole field. This siege battle was extremely powerful.
Liu Yu also made a symbolic move, easily releasing a series of third-tier middle-grade fire attribute spells, playing the role of an ordinary Jindan monk.
While observing the deployment of troops in Qianting, while paying attention to the situation of various monsters and beasts, he can do everything with ease.
From dawn to sunset, many low-level monsters were killed and injured, and the dense beast tide receded like a tide.
Not long after, the monsters outside the city became sparse, and their corpses also disappeared.
Although a lot of sacrifices have been made, the low-level monsters with ordinary bloodlines have a strong reproductive ability, so it is not a loss.
As many monks had expected, this time was a tentative attack.
Sunset Immortal City has experienced such attacks several times, so the city guards are very familiar with handling them.
When night fell completely, low-level monks were sent to clean up the battlefield.
But before that, many rogue cultivators rushed out regardless of the risk of a comeback of the beast horde.
After all, monsters are treasures, if they can pick up one or two corpses, they can also exchange for a lot of spirit stones.
Even if there is no gain, they can be regarded as "defending the city meritorious service", and they can receive the spirit stone that is better than nothing from the sunset fairy city.
Although there are very few spirit stones, they are rarely worth more, and the risk of this kind of defense is not great, but it will consume a lot of mana.
In this way, a border siege came to an end.
At this time, after receiving the reward for assisting in defending the city, Liu Yu led his team and left the Sunset Immortal City in a low-key manner.
He clearly knew that neither side was doing their best.
On the side of the demon clan, the high-level demon cultivators have not done much from the beginning to the end, especially the demon clan with the blood of the spirit demon.
On the side of the human race, none of the really powerful figures in Qianting made a move, nor did they use their hole cards such as Taoist soldiers and spirit ships.
Time flies, and it has been three months since Liu Yu came to Dongzhou.
……
"dong dong dong"
At the door of the attic, there was a light knock on the door, startling Liu Yu who was comprehending the exercises.
With a sweep of his consciousness, he saw the person clearly in an instant, and said lightly:
"Come in."
The next moment, the door was gently opened, and Tian Xiaoyu, who had light green pupils and dressed in cool clothes, pushed open the door and walked in.
"Meet the helmsman."
The woman walked to the center of the hall and saluted politely.
"Don't be too polite."
"What's the matter?"
Liu Yu closed the book and put it aside, picked up the spirit tea and asked casually.
"I would like to report to the rudder master, the Feng family of Hongzhushan has sent people to contact and observe many times, and thinks that they can try to win them over."
"The Feng family has always had conflicts of interest with the surrounding Jindan families."
"Because his family has only one Jindan early-stage monk, he has been at a disadvantage for a long time, and his sphere of influence has been continuously compressed."
"Combined with the successive years of war in Dongzhou, the exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes imposed by the Qian court have made the whole family increasingly dissatisfied with the Qian court. At this time, there are already complaints."
"Although I dare not say it openly, the people sent by my subordinates can often hear the dissatisfaction and complaints from the Feng family."
"The subordinate once made the decision and sent a fellow Foundation Establishment to the Feng family to secretly approach the patriarch of the late Foundation Establishment period. He was also very dissatisfied with Qianting, but he dared not speak out."
"According to various signs, this subordinate believes that the Feng family can try to win over."
"But this is a big matter. The Feng family is really talking about the ancestors of the golden core, so we have to ask the helmsman or the deputy helmsman to go there in person."
Tian Xiaoyu stood in the middle of the hall, telling the ins and outs of deciding to win over the Feng family, every word and every word was clear.
Because this is the Xiuxian family after all, there is a natural gap with the Purple Scarf Army, which is dominated by loose cultivators, so she must come up with enough reasons to convince Liu Yu.
Only with the consent of the helmsman can the operation continue.
After finishing speaking, the woman stood in the hall with tense body, and she didn't know how to place her hands and feet.
Even though he often met with the rudder master, Tian Xiaoyu was very restrained by the majesty that "Hong rudder master" naturally exuded, not daring to slack off just because there was a little bit of ambiguity.
Perhaps, it is because the future and fate are all in the hands of the people.
"The Feng family."
"The Jindan family."
Liu Yu was speechless for a while, and did not answer immediately, his eyes flickered and he fell into deep thought.
If he wants to complete this task, two conditions must be met.
First, add [-] peripheral members, and the number of foundation-builders must not be less than a certain number, and it cannot be too much.
Second, the number of Jindan members cannot be less than five.
Only when the two conditions are met at the same time can the task be successfully completed.
After all, the knowledge of cultivating immortality contained in the secret method of "Five-color Yuanying" is extremely precious, and it is even more priceless for those who are ambitious. Following the principle of equal value exchange, it is naturally impossible to obtain it easily.
To complete the task, it must not be a matter of one or two years, and it will take more than ten years if it goes well.
In the past three months, only 500 new peripheral members have been added, only one-tenth of the progress has been completed.
The suitable targets that have been found for a long time have basically been exhausted, and the follow-up needs to find contacts again, and the speed will become much slower.
But so far, the operation to win over Jindan members has not yet started.
"The family is in a very bad situation."
"Excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes are heavy."
"The tribe complained a lot."
"The most important thing is to be alone in a difficult situation."
All kinds of thoughts flashed by, Liu Yu kept thinking about the information Tian Xiaoyu said, considering the possibility of winning over the Feng family.
"You can try it."
"However, in order to ensure the aftermath of being rejected, it is better to go there in person."
After a few breaths of silence, he came to a conclusion in his mind.
Before thinking about victory, think about defeat first. Considering the consequences of the news being leaked in case the Feng family refuses, Liu Yu still decided to go there in person to make sure nothing goes wrong.

PS: [-] words first, there is still a chapter of [-] words in the early morning.
But it's a little bit of a carver, fellow Taoists, don't wait, and watch it in the morning.
