Chapter 141: Sect War Spanning Tens of Thousands of Li, Taking Refuge
"Rest assured, it's merely a Golden Core remnant soul; how could it possibly do anything to me?"
"Not only could it not do anything to me, but it was actually finished off by me instead."
"From a certain perspective, I can also be considered to have finished off a Golden Core Real Person."
Zhou Sui stroked his chin and said with great pride.
"That is indeed the case. Five hundred years ago, this Wanliu Zhenren was rampant for a time; one could say he was invincible among all Golden Core cultivators."
"I originally thought he was a Loose Cultivator, but I never expected he was actually a Cultivator from a Transformation Sect of the Eastern Wasteland Continent."
"No wonder he was so powerful; this can be considered as resolving a doubt of mine."
Leng Yuexi also nodded.
To tell the truth, this Wanliu Zhenren could be considered unlucky. Originally, according to his plan, he should have succeeded in his possession.
Even the many Treasures within the Cave Abode should have been the cultivation resources he prepared after successfully possessing a body.
But now, they have all gone to benefit her own husband.
A dignified True Disciple of a Transformation Sect died just like that at the hands of a Qi Refining Cultivator.
Even if one were to tell others, few would believe it.
One can only say that her husband is indeed formidable, having caused the death of a Golden Core Real Person.
"By the way, here is a Golden Liquid Jade Return Pill; take it."
"Condense your Golden Core as soon as possible."
At this moment, Zhou Sui took out a Golden Liquid Jade Return Pill from his person. This was a Third-tier Pill, and a pill for condensing a Golden Core at that; the value within could be imagined.
Only a figure like Wanliu Zhenren could have brought it out.
"Thank you, husband."
Leng Yuexi reached out and took this Golden Core. She could sense that this pill was permeated with a rich fragrance and seemed to contain unparalleled medicinal power; it could at least increase her probability of successfully forming a core by thirty percent.
Possessing this Golden Liquid Jade Return Pill, her forming a core could be said to be a sure thing.
Thinking of this, her heart felt even more delightful. After becoming Dao Companions with her husband, good luck followed one after another, and even such a Treasure had been obtained.
…………
Another three days passed.
At this very moment, Zhou Sui and his Dao Companion had also returned to the surface and back to the valley.
Because the surrounding Monster Beasts had already retreated rapidly, and that Third-tier Monster Beast had also returned to its own lair.
Basically, the tranquility of the past had been restored here.
Thus, they also rebuilt the valley once more, constructing stone house after stone house.
This time the efficiency was faster; after all, they already had the previous experience, so doing it again was naturally as easy as turning over one's hand.
Even because Xia Jingyan had promoted to the Foundation Establishment Realm, her attainment in Array Dao had been further improved and had already reached the level of a Second-tier low-grade, allowing her to build a Second-Tier Array.
Therefore, this time she set up a Second-Tier Array around the valley.
Compared to before, the valley had also become much safer.
At the same time, it could also gather more massive amounts of Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi, making the cultivation environment even better and convenient for Foundation Establishment Cultivators to practice.
But not long after, the valley actually welcomed visitors again.
This was a group of family Cultivators, exceeding fifty people, led by a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
There were even children and infants.
It looked as if they were dragging their families along to enter the Cloud Mist Mountain Range to take refuge.
"This fellow Daoist, this old man is Jiang Qi, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator from Zheng'an City."
This old man introduced himself; his name was Jiang Qi, and he was a Foundation Establishment Early Stage Cultivator.
He sensed the Foundation Establishment aura on Ji Bingyu and the others at the first moment and immediately became solemn.
After all, there were at least four Foundation Establishment Cultivators present here.
If it were disadvantageous to their Jiang Family, I am afraid they would have nowhere to escape.
But if the Jiang Family wanted to survive in this place, they also needed to build a good relationship with the Cultivators here.
"Zheng'an City? Isn't that a city of Loose Cultivators three thousand li away? How did you come all the way to the Cloud Mist Mountain Range?" Zhou Sui looked at these people with some surprise.
After all, crossing three thousand kilometers is not a small matter.
One doesn't even know how many dangers one would encounter along the way.
And they were even dragging their families along.
If one were not careful, the entire group would be wiped out.
But looking at the other party's appearance, even knowing it was so dangerous, they had still made up their minds to migrate to the depths of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
"Fellow Daoist probably doesn't know yet, but the outside world has already become a chaotic mess. An unprecedented sect war has occurred, with the flames of war everywhere and countless casualties; we also came here to take refuge."
Jiang Qi said helplessly.
"Sect war? What does this mean? Hasn't the great war between the Xianxia Sect and the Youmo Sect already ended?"
Zhou Sui frowned.
One of his clones was still in Miyun City, responsible for gathering intelligence.
However, after the last war, Miyun City had become almost a ruin, and not many Cultivators had returned.
And the Xianxia Sect also seemed to have no intention of managing this city, so they temporarily left it abandoned.
Therefore, he did not know for the time being what exactly had happened in the outside world.
"Ended? No, it hasn't ended; it's merely the beginning."
Jiang Qi said in a deep voice: "Previously, the three great Golden Core sects—the Xianxia Sect, the Qingmu Sect, and the Pill Cauldron Sect—formed an alliance and drove away the Youmo Sect that was entrenched in Miyun City, and even seriously injured two Golden Core Real Persons of the Youmo Sect."
"But the Youmo Sect could not swallow this insult and united with the Golden Core sect Huangfeng Valley, as well as the two great Golden Core families, the Ouyang Family and the Dongfang Family, plus many Foundation Establishment families, to wage war against the three great sects."
The result is imaginable; these Demon Sect Cultivators crazily attacked the markets ruled by the three major sects, starting a war, with smoke and flames rising everywhere and countless dead and injured.
Even we ordinary Foundation Establishment families were implicated, and I don't know how many Cultivators died miserably, or were even press-ganged by these sects to become cannon fodder for the sects.
In order to avoid this war, I decided to take my family and hide inside the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
It is precisely because of this that we plan to hide in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range for a few years, and only leave the Cloud Mist Mountain Range after this war between Golden Core sects has completely ended."
He also stated his purpose and plan for coming to the Cloud Mist Mountain Range; he simply wanted to come to the Cloud Mist Mountain Range to take refuge.
What?!
Hearing this, Ji Bingyu, Mu Ziyan, Xia Jingyan, and Leng Yuexi and the others were all greatly shocked.
Especially Leng Yuexi; she did not expect that the war with the Youmo Sect had not ended, but instead was becoming increasingly intense.
This seemed to have a flavor of fighting to the death.
"So that's how it is, thank you for telling me some information about the outside world."
Zhou Sui took a deep breath and looked at Jiang Qi; if this fellow Daoist hadn't come suddenly, he wouldn't have known that such a serious matter had happened in the outside world, and that such an intense war had actually broken out.
This is simply a sect war that has spread across tens of thousands of miles.
Compared to the last time Miyun City was besieged, it is merely a case of a minor wizard meeting a major wizard.
"You're welcome, it was just a small favor."
Jiang Qi waved his hand, and he also suddenly breathed a sigh of relief; it seems these Foundation Establishment Cultivators are still relatively easy to talk to, they don't have much malice toward them, and they can get along.
