A group of sect monks from Golden Cloud Valley were ambushed by enemy cultivators while exploring the territory of the Feng Kingdom.

The number of ambushing immortal cultivators was three times that of Golden Cloud Valley, and the leader was Foundation Establishment Late Stage Daxiu.

At that time, the team of dozens of monks were intercepted from front to back and almost completely wiped out. None of the three Foundation Establishment monks who led the team returned.

Lin Lu Unfortunately, among that team of monks.

Zhao Siyao described in the letter: Lin Lu was not killed on the spot. With the high-quality Escape Talisman, he managed to break out of the encirclement for a short distance, but was chased by Foundation Establishment Late Stage Overhaul.

After that battle, Lin Lu did not return and disappeared on the Feng Kingdom battlefield.

Zhang Tieshan searched for it afterwards and inquired many times, but there was no news.

Lan Chang'an sighed secretly, this situation can be said to be extremely dangerous.

A Foundation Establishment Middle Stage with ordinary strength was trapped in the enemy's territory in Cultivation War and was hunted and surrounded.

If you don't come back in the short term, you'll basically never come back.

From a personal perspective, Lan Chang'an feels sorry, even a little bit of pity.

After all, he is the junior who has been filial to me for so many years.

But from a neutral perspective, or from the perspective of a Feng Kingdom immortal cultivator, this matter does not deserve sympathy.

Because, Liang Kingdom sect, and even Lin Lu, belong to the side of the invaders.

"How is the situation on the Feng Kingdom battlefield today?"

Lan Chang'an said thoughtfully.

He has always been more concerned about the overall situation of Cultivation World.

Even if Zhao Siyao knew the specific information on the battlefield, it would be difficult to disclose it in a letter.

At the end of the letter, Zhao Siyao said that it was inconvenient to leave the sect and hoped that Lan Chang'an would go to Golden Cloud Valley.

Lan Chang'an speculates from this that Zhao Siyao is on the list of the second batch of sects going out for the expedition and has entered a "locked" state of combat readiness, making it difficult for Golden Cloud Valley to leave easily.

Lan Chang'an is inevitably a little worried about this female nun who has known each other for more than a hundred years and trusts each other.

On the battlefield of cultivating immortals, strength is only one aspect of whether you can protect yourself.

The overall situation of the battlefield and luck are all important factors.

On the second day after receiving the letter, Lan Chang'an left Wuqi Mountain in a low-key manner and flew to the west of the Liang Kingdom.

Seven or eight days later.

Lan Chang'an stepped on the cyan Escape Light and arrived in front of the Golden Cloud Valley mountain gate.

Compared to the past, the atmosphere at Golden Cloud Valley was more solemn, and most of the sect monks coming and going had anxious expressions.

After notification.

Zhao Siyao came out from the mountain gate.

The mountain breeze blew her white dress, outlining her plump and graceful figure.

Zhao Siyao looks to be in his mid-twenties, wearing Phoenix Hairpin, with picturesque features, elegant and refined.

Compared to previous years, even when I first entered Foundation Establishment, I looked more elegant and calm.

"Daoist Lu, you are here."

"Daoist Zhao."

The two looked at each other, nodded and smiled, without excessive greetings or courtesy.

Lan Chang'an and Zhao Siyao flew side by side and entered the latter's cave.

There is a lotus pond in the middle of the cave, which is fragrant and fragrant, and is surrounded by pavilions and waterside pavilions.

"Daoist Lu, please come over this time."

Zhao Siyao dismissed the maid, behaved generously, took the mountain spring water flowing through the cave, and brewed a pot of spiritual tea for Lan Chang'an.

The two chatted for a while, and inevitably mentioned that Lin Lu was trapped in the battlefield of the Feng Kingdom, and they felt very sorry.

Judging from the available intelligence information, Lin Lu narrowly escaped death.

Even if you are lucky enough to survive, you will most likely be captured alive and the end will not be much better.

Then, Lan Chang'an went straight to the point and asked Feng Kingdom about the situation on the battlefield.

Zhao Siyao pondered, "Two years ago, Liang Kingdom sect called on all major forces, the first army of monks, to invade Feng Kingdom from south to north and from the rear. In the early days of the war, Feng Kingdom fought on both sides and was overwhelmed, and the cultivating forces in the rear were defeated one after another..."

The first part of the story is known to monks who pay attention to the battlefield.

Liang Kingdom's expedition went relatively smoothly, occupying Immortal City's spiritual land and plundering a lot of resources.

Some good news came one after another, which was encouraging.

"However, Feng Kingdom has a vast territory, numerous immortal cultivating forces, and its foundation is not comparable to that of the Liang Kingdom. When the first batch of monk armies penetrated deeper into the territory of the Feng Kingdom, they faced great resistance.

"If the enemy cultivating forces are defeated from the front, they will adopt a strategy of fortifying the wall and clearing the field. Liang Kingdom The monk army is often attacked in the belly, encounters an ambush, or is attacked by cultivators at its rear strongholds..."

Zhao Siyao's voice was clear and pleasant, but his tone became serious.

"When a small country invades a big country, there is also a gap in the foundation of the civilization that cultivates immortals."

Lan Chang'an thought to himself, not surprised by the current situation.

The area of the Feng Kingdom is much larger than Yan Kingdom and Liang Kingdom combined.

The strategic depth is very broad.

Inheriting heritage and fighting locally, these are the advantages of the Feng Kingdom.

Feng Kingdom In addition to the original three Nascent Soul-level forces, there are also many powerful sects, and the power of cultivating immortals Lineage far exceeds Liang Kingdom.

"Blazing Fire Palace's Nascent Soul True Lord, have you ever taken action?"

Lan Chang'an asked.

Feng Kingdom's two or three existing Nascent Soul are restrained by Chu Tianfeng and Chen Kingdom's Nascent Soul True Lord on the front battlefield and will not be easily dispatched.

"It is said that there was an attack once to capture the important Immortal City. However, due to some scruples, he did not directly intervene in the war."

Zhao Siyao replied.

"Some concerns?"

Lan Chang'an looked confused.

The only thing that can make Nascent Soul True Lord worry is the same level of deterrence.

Feng Kingdom On the front, it is impossible to send a Nascent Soul for a long time to deal with the invasion of the Liang Kingdom sect, and can only be used as an emergency response occasionally.

Otherwise, Nascent Soul Early Stage, who has been alone for a long time, is easily attacked by Chu Tianfeng. Even if it is only seriously injured, it will have a great impact on the situation.

"According to rumors, this matter is related to the Feng Kingdom"Blood Sword Valley", the sword cultivator who had his body destroyed and escaped Nascent Soul."

Zhao Siyao looked unsure, and was talking about gossip.

Feng Kingdom"Blood Sword Valley" is located in a slightly remote location and was once attacked by Chu Tianfeng of the Yan Kingdom and Chen Kingdom's sect.

"That sword cultivator Blood Sword Valley was Feng Kingdom's first Nascent Soul, and the strongest. When Yan Kingdom's Nascent Soul Middle Stage Chu Tianfeng killed him, he even took the initiative to fight, causing Chu Tianfeng to suffer some injuries."

"This great sword cultivator, whose Nascent Soul escaped, is rumored to be behind the scenes, commanding the remaining Blood Sword Valley forces. Blood Sword Valley received the assistance of the other two Nascent Soul sects and is dormant and stationed in the south of the Feng Kingdom."

After hearing this, Lan Chang'an has a general understanding of the situation on the front line.

The first repairman Blood Sword Valley who escaped from Nascent Soul was obviously not the ordinary Nascent Soul Early Stage.

If the sect has Peak Core Formation with the same origin as Cultivation Method, and allows it to host its physical body, there is no need to confront Nascent Soul True Lord of the Blazing Fire Palace. It only needs to launch an attack. It will also be a dimensionality reduction attack for Nascent Soul and below.

With Nascent Soul True Lord's behind-the-scenes command and coordinated response, this poses considerable constraints on the Liang Kingdom's invasion strategy.

We don't even rule out a possibility. Nascent Soul sword cultivator of Blood Sword Valley and Nascent Soul True Lord of the Blazing Fire Palace have reached some tacit understanding, and there are certain restrictions on each other's attacks.

"On the whole, Liang Kingdom sect is still attacking the aggressor, but the situation is not so smooth."

After talking about the battlefields of neighboring countries, Zhao Siyao mentioned his own situation.

She is the second batch of sect monks to go on an expedition. As Foundation Establishment Late Stage, her responsibilities are higher than Lin Lu.

Invading neighboring countries brings both opportunities and risks.

From the early stages of the expedition, the opportunities clearly outweighed the dangers.

At least, the casualties of the Liang Kingdom are much lower than those of the Feng Kingdom.

Some of the invading Liang Kingdom monks obtained wealth and resources that were difficult to accumulate in several lifetimes.

Including the clan Cultivation Method and inherited treasures of certain forces, the fortuitous opportunity secrets of personal monks, etc.

During the war, the number of monks who broke through the bottleneck increased by several percent compared with normal times.

The prerequisite for all this is survival.

Zhao Siyao, like Zhang Tieshan, has a demand for high-quality combat readiness supplies.

"In order to purchase Daoist Lu's high-quality Talisman and Puppet, Siyao has accumulated Spirit Stone for several years, including a reserve of the Golden Core Realm."

Zhao Siyao has a pair of clear eyes, with a slight look of expectation.

The past hundreds of years.

At key nodes, the Talisman or Puppet she obtained from Lan Chang'an exceeded expectations and played a good role.

"Then let's see how well prepared Daoist Zhao is."

Lan Chang'an smiled slightly.

For Zhao Siyao, he has more trust and can show some strategic materials that exceed the standard.

In subsequent transactions, Zhao Siyao lamented that his Spirit Stone was not enough.

Lan Chang'an comes up with high quality Talisman, including Second-Order Top-Grade, and even Quasi-Third-Order.

Among them, there are also some Talisman with special abilities, which are very rare on the market.

As for Puppet, he brought out Second-Order High-Grade, which was able to contain a Foundation Establishment Late Stage at the critical moment.

Zhao Siyao's Spirit Stone, after many years of accumulation, is still not as good as Zhang Tieshan.

She made a difficult decision and bought some Second-Order High-Grade and the top-notch Talisman.

Accurate Tier 3 Talisman, I only bought one.

The Puppet in the late second stage is no longer affordable.

"This Turtle Puppet is a defective product of Second-Order High-Grade. Its defense power has completely reached the late second level. Daoist Zhao can be sold at a relatively low price if needed."

Lan Chang'an takes the initiative to promote.

Back then, when he attacked Second-Order High-Grade Puppet Master, there was once a failed product of Turtle Puppet, and its defensive power was nothing to say.

The price quoted by Lan Chang'an is only slightly higher than the ordinary Second-Order Middle-Grade Puppet.

Zhao Siyao was very moved. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain. He squeezed again and used some of the elixirs and materials as discounts to buy Turtle Puppet.

She sighed, "Maybe I am destined to be a turtle."

"In the Azure Underworld Secret Realm, that Turtle Puppet responded to crises at critical moments and played a good role. After being repaired by Daoist Lu, I gave it to Tan'er a few years ago."

Lan Chang'an joked, "My Turtle Puppet is cheap and durable, but it just doesn't fit the temperament of Fairy Zhao."

"There's nothing wrong with the turtle. It's good for longevity and longevity."

Zhao Siyao's eyebrows were smiling, and his clear and beautiful eyes looked at Lan Chang'an. His eyes softened a little, seeming a bit envious.

Lan Chang'an's heart skipped a beat, almost thinking that this woman had seen something about him.

"Besides purchasing war supplies, Siyao also wants to ask for something."

Zhao Siyao suddenly stood up with a solemn expression and bowed.

"Daoist Zhao It doesn't have to be like this. If you have any questions, please speak up."

Lan Chang'an also stood up, raised his hand and gently held Fairy Zhao's catkin.

"At our age, we no longer have close relatives in the world. Siyao is going on this expedition, Liang Kingdom, and I can't guarantee that he will come back. Only Tan'er, his direct disciple, makes me worried."

"Daoist Lu acts steadily and has insight into Cultivation World's worldly affairs. In case I can't come back, I hope Daoist Lu can take care of me and give some guidance to Zhao Tan'er."

Zhao Siyao These words have the meaning of explaining the future affairs.

"I will accept this matter. I believe that Jiren has his own destiny and will not go to that step."

Lan Chang'an nodded.

Judging from the current war situation, the death rate of the sect during the expedition is not particularly high, but there is a lack of manpower on the front line.

But the battlefield is ruthless and unpredictable.

Even Core Formation True Person cannot guarantee that he will come back.

Zhao Siyao It is a rational behavior to explain the funeral arrangements in advance.

After talking about the business, the two chatted deeply for a long time until evening.

In the century-long career of cultivating immortals, there are too many past events worth remembering.

In particular, this will probably be the last time we talk to each other, so both parties cherish it very much.

During this period, the two people's eyes met from time to time, and they had a gentle and tacit understanding, and occasionally smiled without speaking.

It's getting late.

Zhao Siyao had no intention of seeing off the guests, Lan Chang'an consciously stood up and left.

Zhao Siyao said softly "Hmm" and looked at the youthful man in white, without any courtesy to persuade him to stay.

She sent Lan Chang'an outside the cave.

Under the hazy night.

Lan Chang'an looked back and found that the elegant and cool lady in a white dress was looking at her, silently watching her farewell.

"Daoist Zhao, I wish Feng Kingdom, Yifan good luck and Golden Core Realm resources. When he comes back in the day, we will have a drink and have a good time together."

Lan Chang'an waved goodbye and walked away through the air.

After leaving Golden Cloud Valley.

Lan Chang'an was flying in the air, recalling the previous conversation with a thoughtful look on his face.

Zhao Siyao is very similar to him in terms of emotions, and is more self-contained.

"That Treasure Talisman, I hope you will never need it on the battlefield."

Lan Chang'an whispered in his heart.

It turned out that he quietly left a piece of Treasure Talisman in the warehouse where Turtle Puppet was sold to Zhao Siyao and inlaid with Spirit Stone.

Zhao Siyao is the only monk in this world who has received this gift.
