MTL - Immortal Mansion Longevity-Chapter 703 task conditions
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 Qianting Holy Land.
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.
Afterwards, a question emerged in their hearts.
If these casual cultivators outside the city were replaced by officials of the Qianting Court, or heirs 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.
Let the loose cultivators beg and abuse under the city, and the monks guarding the city are indifferent. Although some monks sympathize, they dare not speak in the majesty of the court.
Dare to be angry but dare not speak out.
In the desperate eyes of dozens of casual cultivators, extremely brilliant auras suddenly bloomed.
Like ten thousand arrows, one after another monsters' innate spells bombarded them, and the terrifying power fluctuations spread all over the field.
"嗖嗖~"
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 with innate spells?
Even if it's just a part of it.
"Boom"
Any resistance will be powerless under the beast tide.
In less than half a breath, dozens of casual cultivators outside the city were submerged in colorful magical auras.
No bones left.
"Sure enough, Qianting's style hasn't changed at all."
Beside , Guo Poyun murmured to himself with a gloomy expression.
He is also an ordinary casual cultivator. He was used to that kind of hard life before. Although he joined the Commoner League and the Purple Turban Army successively, he found an organization.
But for the difficulty of casual cultivation, I can fully empathize with it.
That's why I feel deeply angry at Qianting Holy Land's behavior.
Although for the sake of the overall situation, it is understandable to make some sacrifices.
But in the situation 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."
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, Zhongyu was not like this at the beginning.
But I don’t know when it started, the oppression of casual cultivators by the Zongmen family has become more and more serious, constantly squeezing the living space of casual cultivators, and monopolizing the resources of cultivating immortals intensified.
Later, one by one radical casual repair organizations came into being.
Some of the most radical and extreme casual repair organizations, in order to change the existing pattern in the central region, 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?"
Actually, 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 tens or hundreds of years, it is difficult to give birth to a sense of belonging.
Meet a monk from an aristocratic family of the sect, although he is also known as a Taoist friend.
However, 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 attacking distance of low-level monsters, tens of thousands of monsters continued 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 cultivator defending the city also sacrificed magic tools and spells to counter 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 endlessly stirring, 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-level middle-grade fire attribute spells, playing the role of an ordinary Jindan monk.
While observing the deployment of troops in the Qianting court, while paying attention to the situation of various monsters, 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, there were few monsters outside the city, and the corpses of the monsters also disappeared.
Although the sacrifice was quite a lot, the low-level monsters with ordinary blood 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 casual cultivators rushed out despite the risk of a comeback of the beast horde.
After all, a monster is a treasure, if you can pick up one or two corpses, you can also exchange for a lot of spirit stones.
Even if there is no harvest, they can be regarded as "defending the city meritorious service", and they can receive a spirit stone that is better than nothing from the Sunset Immortal 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 didn't do 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, the really powerful figures in Qianting did not make a move, and the hole cards such as Taoist soldiers and spirit ships were not used.
Time changed, and three months had passed since Liu Yu came to Dongzhou.
…
"Boom boom boom"
At the door of the attic, there was a light knock on the door, which alarmed Liu Yu who was comprehending the exercises.
With a sweep of his consciousness, he saw the person coming clearly in an instant, and said lightly:
"Come in."
The next moment, the door opened slightly, and Tian Xiaoyu, who had light green pupils and was 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.
"There is no need to be too polite."
"What is it?"
Liu Yu closed the book and put it aside, picked up the spiritual 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 there is only one Jindan early-stage monk in his family, 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 taxation of the Qianting court is heavy, and the whole family is increasingly dissatisfied with the Qianting court. At this time, there are already complaints."
"Although I dare not say it openly, but the people sent by my subordinates can often hear the dissatisfaction and complaints of 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, and the real person in charge of the Feng family is the ancestor of the Golden Core, so I still need to invite 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 between them and the Purple Scarf Army, which is dominated by loose cultivators, so she must come up with enough reasons to convince Liu Yu.
Only after the helmsman agrees, the operation can 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.
Although he often meets the rudder master, Tian Xiaoyu is very restrained by the majesty that "Hong rudder master" naturally exudes, not daring to slack off because of a little ambiguity.
Perhaps, it is because the future and fate are all in the hands of people.
"The Feng family."
"Golden Core Family."
Liu Yu was speechless for a while, did not answer immediately, his eyes flickered and fell into deep thought.
For him to complete this mission, two conditions must be met.
First, add 5,000 peripheral members, and the number of foundation-builders must not be less than a certain number, and it cannot be too much.
Second, the members of Jindan cannot be less than five.
Only when the two conditions are met at the same time can the mission be considered a successful completion.
After all, the knowledge of cultivating immortals contained in the secret method of "Five-color Yuanying" is extremely precious, and it is even more invaluable 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.
Three months have passed, and only 500 new peripheral members have been added, only one-tenth of the progress has been completed.
The suitable targets that have been found a long time ago 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 begun.
"The family situation is extremely poor."
"Exorbitant 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 leaking the news in case the Feng family refuses, Liu Yu decided to go there in person to make sure nothing goes wrong.
