The Beast Calamity Erupts
When the elders in the Lineage learned of this, they were all stunned, since they had been cultivating step by step according to the established methods.
To truly understand the Cultivation Method, one must carefully compare it with the annotations. For some ambiguous parts, one must consult the Old Clan Leader and Chen Nianzhi for clarification. One must cautiously try to cultivate it. How can one possibly reach such a level?
Even across the vast Chu Kingdom, no one had ever heard of complaining that the martial arts had too many flaws, not only completely altering the Cultivation Method but also increasing its power by 20%.
This is outrageous and somewhat unbelievable.
Perhaps it was due to exceptional insight, or perhaps it was due to Bu Fan talent; Chen Nianzhi did not waste her talent.
Over the years, he has even begun to integrate and deduce his main cultivation techniques, ' Blazing Sun Soaring Void Art ' and ' Blazing Fire Dao Ruins Art ', and has even figured out some tricks of it.
He has created a brand-new Foundation Establishment Cultivation Method and has developed it to the Foundation Establishment Third Layer.
This Cultivation Method combines the domineering nature of the Blazing Sun Soaring Void Art Through the Void Technique with the all-consuming characteristic of the Blazing Fire Soul-Burning Art.
Chen Nianzhi named this new Cultivation Method the "Sunfire Scripture," and its power was much greater than the two previous Higher Vehicle Foundation Establishment Cultivation Method. The True Essence cultivated from it was particularly domineering.
Moreover, he has already deduced a rudimentary form of a Pure Yang Divine Ability that comes with this True Essence.
Although it has only deduced to the Foundation Establishment Third Layer, it is still far from deducing into Divine Ability, and even further from the Purple Mansion Cultivation Method that Chen Nianzhi desires.
However, he knew that as his cultivation deepened, once he had thoroughly mastered the ' Azure Lotus Ren-Water Scripture,' he would eventually be able to deduce it to the Purple Mansion Realm.
"..."
After distributing the magical Law Treasure, Chen Nianzhi gave the three Tier 2 high-grade talismans she had obtained from Wei Mingyuan to Chen Qingwan and the Third Elder respectively.
The meeting concluded, and he immediately flew back to Spirit Isle Lake on his sword to begin rearranging the formation.
After spending more than ten days, he finally added the Earth-Marsh Treasure Pearl into Spirit Isle Lake, strengthening Spirit Isle Lake defenses.
With the Tier 2 superior Spirit Vein and the Tier 2 superior formation protecting it, as long as there is a Foundation Establishment cultivator in charge, even three or five Foundation Establishment Late Stage opponents would only be coming to their deaths.
"..."
Time flies like water, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
A message came from Heavenly Ruins Mountain: the Heavenly Python Demon King had finally gathered his army, leading 300,000 Demon Beast to sweep in and head straight for Heavenly Ruins Mountain.
"It's finally here."
Chen Nianzhi walked out of the Seclusion Chamber and couldn't help but sigh softly.
Every Beast Turmoil is destined to be a catastrophe. Yu Commandery is under great pressure and does not know how many cultivators will ultimately perish in the battle.
Before leaving, he summoned Chen Xianyan and gave her his instructions carefully.
"For the Lineage, the most important things are Spirit Isle Lake Peaceful Sun City."
"You are responsible for guarding Spirit Isle Lake. No matter what happens, you are not allowed to leave the Lakeheart Island."
Chen Xianyan hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking, "Even if Yuyang Market asks for help, it won't work?"
"No." Chen Nianzhi shook her head and said solemnly, "If Yuyang Market really can't hold on, you'll just be throwing your life away."
"On the contrary, if you stay at Spirit Isle Lake, you might be able to use the power of the formation to kill a few Tier 2 Demon Beast."
"Moreover," Chen Nianzhi's eyes narrowed, her expression turning slightly cold, "You must be wary of being used as a diversionary tactic."
"Understood."
Chen Xianyan nodded, understanding that the Chen Clan still had this mortal enemy in Yu Commandery.
While the Lin Clan is unlikely to dare to attack the Chen Clan during the Beast Turmoil, they might be willing to use others to sabotage the Chen Clan.
After leaving Spirit Isle Lake, Chen Nianzhi flew to Peaceful Sun City on her sword. After meeting up with the Old Clan Leader, she went to Yuyang Market.
Before leaving, he left behind the Scorching Sun Divine Flame Formation and entrusted it to Chen Nianchuan and Chen Xianling as the Lineage's trump card.
This Scorching Sun Divine Flame Formation was originally crafted to slay the Thunder Roc. When two Foundation Establishment cultivators and eighteen Ninth Layer of Qi Refining 9 cultivators are gathered together, its attack power is equivalent to that of two or three Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivators working together, making it quite Bu Fan.
Upon arriving at Yuyang Market Yuyang Market, the two discovered that more than twenty Foundation Establishment cultivators had already gathered there, and the two patriarchs, Yang Zhengyuan and Xu Daoyuan, were also stationed there to guard the Yuyang Market.
Chen Nianzhi also encountered several acquaintances, including Liu Jueyan, the head of the Liu Clan family in Feng Commandery, and Yu Lingyan, the Great Elder of the Yu Clan in Spirit Commandery.
Liu Jueyan someone he had met a few days ago, so there was no need to elaborate. As for Yu Lingyan, she was a long-time friend of Meng Xinghe. When they first met thirty years ago, she was already in the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, and now her cultivation had broken through to the Seventh Layer of Foundation Establishment.
Upon seeing Chen Nianzhi, Yu Lingyan's eyes lit up as she exclaimed, "It's been many years! Fellow Daoist Chen's cultivation has become even more unfathomable!"
"No, no."
Chen Nianzhi smiled slightly, then cupped his hands and said, "I must thank you all for coming to support my Yu Commandery."
Liu Jueyan smiled and said, "Yu Commandery is closest to Heavenly Ruins Mountain and faces the greatest pressure among the three counties. We should naturally offer our support for our own safety."
In fact, Feng Commandery also borders the Ten-Thousand-Li Great Wilderness, but because they are far away and are shielded by the Tianyuan Heavenly Fate Mountain Range which stretches for more than 20,000 li, the pressure is much less than that of Yu Commandery.
After exchanging pleasantries, the group remained in Yuyang Market, quietly awaiting news from Heavenly Ruins Mountain.
Currently, the Human Race is on the defensive. As to how to deploy troops to deal with the Demon Race, we still need to wait for the Demon Race to react before we can respond accordingly.
And this wait actually lasted three months.
Heavenly Python Lake surrounded Heavenly Ruins Mountain and launched a three-month-long attack, resulting in an extremely fierce battle.
Relying on the Mountain-Protecting Array of Heavenly Ruins Mountain, the cultivators fought a defensive counterattack for more than three months, and their casualties were not too great. However, the 300,000 Demon Beast under the command of Heavenly Python Lake lost more than 50,000 to 60,000.
However, according to the message transmitted by Jiang Linglong through the Horizon Communication Mirror, the spiritual liquid in the Heavenly Ruins Mountain Spirit Pool is almost exhausted.
If the fighting continues, we will need to replenish Spirit Stone to restore the energy in the Spirit Pool; otherwise, the Tier 4 Formation of Heavenly Ruins Mountain will be unable to be activated at all.
Replenishing the Spirit Pool energy of Tier 3 High-grade Spirit Vein once requires eighty to ninety thousand Spirit Stone, which is a considerable price to pay.
Fortunately, with the support of various Lineage in the Border Province, Heavenly Ruins Mountain prepared sufficient Spirit Stone, and finally replenished the spirit liquid in the Spirit Pool of Heavenly Ruins Mountain, allowing the formation to continue to hold.
That Heavenly Python Demon King led his troops to attack for another half a month, but seeing that they still could not break through the formation of Heavenly Ruins Mountain, he simply took matters into his own hands and attacked Heavenly Ruins Mountain.
However, it did not gain any advantage in this battle. Jiang Linglong fought it personally, and before the outcome was determined, Lin Qianshu seized the opportunity to activate the formation and injure it.
The Heavenly Python Demon King had no choice but to abandon its attack and instead besiege Heavenly Ruins Mountain. It wasn't that it didn't want to bypass Heavenly Ruins Mountain Heavenly Ruins Mountain, but rather that its location was too crucial.
If it abandons Heavenly Ruins Mountain, it will expose its lair, Heavenly Python Lake. With Jiang Linglong's cultivation level, a Tier 4 Spirit Vein without a protective array would be easy prey for her.
When that time comes, Jiang Linglong will set up Tier 4 Formation directly at Heavenly Python Lake, and it probably won't even be able to go home. If it stays in the Chu Kingdom until the Beast Turmoil ends, it will become a sitting duck.
However, even after surrounding Heavenly Ruins Mountain, the Heavenly Python Demon King was not without a countermeasure.
He summoned his Purple Mansion Demon Beast and then dispatched his right-hand man Purple-Spotted Wolf King, with 100,000 Demon Beast to the east to attack the heartland of the Chu Kingdom.
Once the three prefectures of Border Province are transformed into the Beast Territory, Heavenly Ruins Mountain will become an isolated and helpless Spirit Mountain, and sooner or later it will be their prey.
Upon discovering that the Demon Race had split its forces, Jiang Linglong immediately relayed this message to the three prefectures of the Border Province.
Upon receiving the message, Chen Nianzhi, who was in charge of the Horizon Communication Mirror, immediately notified the two patriarchs and Foundation Establishment cultivators in Yuyang Market.
