Chapter 312: Lingyin Sect

After traveling southeast for more than ten days, the flying boat finally crossed the border area of the State of Wei and entered the territory of a small country in the southeast, the State of Pei.

Controlling the cultivation world of the State of Pei is a Jin Dan sect named Xuanyue Sect. This sect has also been passed down for thousands of years. Although there has been no Soul Transformation cultivator sitting in the sect for thousands of years, there are still six Jin Dan cultivators in the sect, and the Foundation Establishment and Qi Condensation cultivators below are also more than half of the Xiaoyao Sect.

At the junction of the southeast of the State of Wei and the State of Lu, there are several other small countries similar in size to the State of Pei. These small countries are all controlled by some Jin Dan sects. At this moment, they, like the State of Wei, are also fully supporting the battlefield of the Lingyin Sect in the State of Lu.

After entering the territory of the State of Pei, Song Qingming discovered that the scenery and towns here were already somewhat different from the State of Wei in the north.

Having cultivated for so many years, Song Qingming had never left the State of Wei to go to other countries. He was quite interested in these unseen scenery and things, and had been sitting in the warehouse specifically prepared for Foundation Establishment cultivators, admiring the unseen beautiful scenery below.

After passing through the State of Pei, it is the territory of the State of Lu. After the flying boat arrived here, Zhao Fenglian, who had not appeared since boarding the boat, suddenly came to the bow of the boat.

Only to see her suddenly release a white long silk, cast a spell and throw it above the flying boat. The white long silk suddenly became dozens of times larger, and also rolled the white clouds floating on the edge of the flying boat into the white silk.

Immediately after, the white silk became larger and larger, slowly absorbing all the clouds near the edge of the flying boat into it. A moment later, following Zhao Fenglian's jade hand gently making a few gestures, bursts of white mist suddenly emerged from the white silk, wrapping the entire flying boat in the clouds and mist.

This cloud and mist moved forward slowly with the flying boat, just like a naturally formed cloud and mist, completely hiding the figure of the flying boat that was moving forward.

"There are occasionally cultivators from the Tianhai Alliance plundering materials appearing here, and it is no longer safe. Everyone keep calm, don't make too much noise, so as not to reveal the traces of the flying boat!" After Zhao Fenglian cast a spell to hide the traces of the flying boat, she sternly ordered the cultivators on the flying boat.

Seeing that even this Jin Dan ancestor had become so cautious, everyone immediately felt a trace of tension. They thought that only the front line was dangerous, but they didn't expect that the rear of the State of Lu had already been infiltrated so deeply by the Tianhai Alliance. This was also truly somewhat beyond the expectations of most cultivators on the flying boat.

The war with the Tianhai Alliance is not as simple as fighting against demon beasts before. It is not only the battle on the front battlefield, but the rear supply and support lines are also the targets of the other side's strikes. Both sides will often send elite cultivators deep into the other side's territory to ambush the materials transported by the other side.

Flying boats like the Xiaoyao Sect's transporting materials need a Jin Dan cultivator to sit in town every time before they dare to sail in the territory of the State of Lu, where the other side's infiltration is serious. Otherwise, once they encounter elite cultivators from the other side coming to attack, even if they can eventually repel the other side, it will be very difficult to protect these materials on the flying boat.

In this tense atmosphere, after carefully sailing for more than ten days, the Xiaoyao Sect's flying boat finally landed safely and steadily in the Lingyin Sect's mountain gate, Mount Baimeng, without any danger.

Only after the flying boat landed did the Xiaoyao Sect crowd, including Zhao Fenglian, feel relieved. Fortunately, this journey was considered smooth, and they didn't encounter any danger.

Just after arriving at the Lingyin Sect, a burly man wearing a heavy armor had already arrived on the flying boat in advance, and shouted at the crowd who were still moving materials.

"Cheng Bufan of the Lingyin Sect, meets all the fellow Daoists of the Xiaoyao Sect."

This sound, like a thunderclap, resounded through the entire flying boat, making the ears of Song Qingming, this Foundation Establishment cultivator, feel somewhat numb.

"Fellow Daoist Cheng, Zhao Fenglian of the Xiaoyao Sect pays respects!" Hearing this thunderclap from Cheng Bufan, Zhao Fenglian, who was standing at the bow of the boat, had also arrived at his side.

"Oh! It's Fellow Daoist Zhao. I am ordered by the Sect Master to welcome all the fellow Daoists here. Hurry and follow me to rest in the sect for a while. Let those juniors handle the clearing of materials first." Seeing that the leader who came this time was a woman, Cheng Bufan was also somewhat surprised.

Leaving all the Qi Condensation disciples to clear the materials on the flying boat, all the cultivators above Foundation Establishment followed Cheng Bufan and Zhao Fenglian to the guest courtyard of the Lingyin Sect.

Cheng Bufan's character looked very kind and hearty. He not only arranged a bountiful banquet for the Xiaoyao Sect crowd but also took the initiative to step forward and ask about their well-being, making people feel that he didn't have the airs of a Jin Dan cultivator at all. This made the many cultivators from the State of Wei, who were used to high-tier cultivators not putting low-tier cultivators in their eyes, feel somewhat flattered.

In fact, this is not because Cheng Bufan, this Jin Dan ancestor, really looked up to them, but for the Lingyin Sect, which is in the midst of war, there is no other way. After all, these people from the State of Wei came from afar to support them, and are not local cultivators of the State of Lu.

To make these foreign cultivators work hard for them, they must find a way to bring their relationship closer. This reception banquet is the opportunity for the Lingyin Sect to show the friendship of the host. It is precisely because of this reason that the Lingyin Sect specifically arranged for Cheng Bufan, an important figure in the sect, to welcome the Xiaoyao Sect crowd.

The Lingyin Sect currently has eight Jin Dan cultivators and one Supreme Elder at the fifth layer of Soul Transformation. Its strength is not much different from the Xiaoyao Sect, but in these years, facing the pressure of the Tianhai Alliance's continuous expansion, the Lingyin Sect has already lost several Jin Dan cultivators and is slowly becoming inferior to the increasingly stable Xiaoyao Sect. Fortunately, the geographical location of the State of Lu is more suitable for mortals to live in. Although the area of the State of Lu is not particularly large, the mortals within its territory are more than those in the State of Wei.

It is precisely by relying on the continuous blood transfusion from below, plus the all-out support from the countries of the Floating Yunshan Range, that the Lingyin Sect has been able to withstand the continuous encroachment of the Tianhai Alliance these years, bringing a period of stable development and peace to the east of the entire Floating Yunshan Range.

This Cheng Bufan is a Jin Dan cultivator who has achieved great success in body refining. Although his cultivation is only at the sixth layer of Jin Dan, his ability to fight magic is already no less than an ordinary late-stage Jin Dan cultivator, and he is one of the top three Jin Dan cultivators in the Lingyin Sect.

After the reception banquet, Cheng Bufan immediately arranged for the disciples under his sect to hand over this batch of goods brought by the Xiaoyao Sect, and then arranged for the many cultivators who came to support the Xiaoyao Sect to wait in the mountain gate of the Lingyin Sect, waiting for the specific arrangements from the front line to come down, and then inform everyone of their respective tasks next.

The Xiaoyao Sect disciples led by Zhao Fenglian left Mount Baimeng very quickly after a few days. It is said that they went to a battlefield in the south to rotate the Xiaoyao Sect cultivators who had been fighting there for several months to return to the sect for rest.

After Song Qingming and the others lived here for more than ten days, they finally received the task arranged from above: to head to a market a few hundred miles away from the front battlefield to assist in guarding and transporting the materials there.
