Chapter 223 Reasons for Guarding

Seeing this, several people nodded to Li Fei in return.

In a moment, the group, led by Hua Mengyou, came to the meeting hall of Guyuan City.

After everyone was seated, Hua Mengyou looked at everyone present, and said with a slightly solemn expression:

"Everyone, I believe you all have questions, why you and I were arranged here.

Moreover, this arrangement is a full eight Purple Mansion cultivators.

Among them, you and I, six of us, have reached the late Purple Mansion."

Seeing Hua Mengyou suddenly mention this matter, everyone present, except Li Fei, couldn't help but look serious.

Indeed.

This was something they felt quite puzzled about before they came.

According to normal practice, when a fairy city is arranged with a protective formation, there is usually a late Purple Mansion cultivator, plus three or four early and middle Purple Mansion cultivators guarding it, that's about it.

But what about them?

Six late Purple Mansion cultivators.

In addition, there is Jiang Rendao, who is at the third level of Purple Mansion, and Bai Zixuan, who is at the fifth level of Purple Mansion.

Combined with the nearly fourth-level protective formation here, Luohe Taiyi Formation, they are enough to block even if they encounter a fourth-level Jindan Demon King.

Such a huge force, but all of it is placed in this ancient Yuan City.

If there is no reason, Jiang Chengxuan and others will never believe it.

"To be honest."

Then Hua Mengyou continued: "The main reason why you and I are all arranged here is actually..."

Hua Mengyou took a deep breath slowly, and then said in a deep voice:

"Under the ground of our fairy city, a top-level fourth-level spiritual vein was found."

"What? Top-level fourth-level spiritual vein?"

These words immediately shocked everyone present.

Obviously, they all understood what the so-called top-level fourth-level spiritual vein meant.

It is no exaggeration to say that a top-level fourth-level spiritual vein is enough to support more than six or seven late-stage Jindan real people to practice at the same time.

If it were a monster beast, it would be six or seven monster kings.

If this news were spread.

Especially if the monster beasts knew about it, I am afraid that those monster kings who fight to the death all day for territory and resources would go completely crazy.

At all costs, they must turn the Guyuan Mountains and even the area within a thousand miles into a paradise for their monster beasts.

And under such temptation, even two tribes that were once mortal enemies may temporarily stop and work together to deal with their great enemy, the human race.

Almost in just a moment, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Jiang Rendao, and the three members of the Bai family were all covered with a huge pressure in their hearts.

Bai Mingshan, the ancestor of the Bai family, said, "Daoist Hua, and Daoist Li Fei, may I ask you two, who knows about the existence of a fourth-level top-level spiritual vein under this city?"

The implication is whether this news has been known by unrelated people.

Especially the monsters.

If this news has been leaked, or there is a risk of being leaked, then they will consider leaving without hesitation.

Even if this order is issued by the Bishui Sword Pavilion, they must leave.

Even if they may be wanted or even abused in the future, they will never joke about their own lives and the lives of the entire family.

In fact, once this news is leaked.

Especially if it is known by the monsters, there is no need to consider that the ancient Yuan city where they are located cannot be defended at all.

Not to mention them, even if there are two or three Jindan real people present, it is impossible to defend it.

At that time, the monsters will definitely give up everything and occupy this place for themselves.

At this time, even Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, who were Hua Mengyou's good friends, were staring at her perfect face.

Carefully observing her expression.

If there was something wrong.

Then even if they were good friends, they could only say sorry.

Like Bai Mingshan and the others, they would never bring their people to die when they knew they were going to die.

Fortunately, Hua Mengyou and Li Fei were calm from beginning to end.

It was as if they didn't see what they were thinking at all.

Hua Mengyou smiled slightly, then looked at everyone present and said:

"Don't worry, so far, apart from you and me present here, only the most core elders of our sect and the elders of Tianyue Sect know this news."

After a pause, Hua Mengyou said:

"The one who discovered the abnormality here was Elder Liuhuo of our sect and Elder Bing of Tianyue Sect, also known as Elder Wen.

As soon as they noticed the abnormality here, they used great magic power and various means to block all possible clues here.

After that, they notified their respective sects.

Let other Jindan elders in the sect come.

Without alerting the monsters, many Jindan real people joined forces to completely isolate all the qi of the top fourth-level spiritual vein.

Now, even if there are real people at the Jindan level who are good at calculations, it is impossible to easily calculate the abnormality here."

"I see."

After listening to Hua Mengyou's explanation, Jiang Chengxuan and others present breathed a sigh of relief.

There were many Jindan masters from the two old Jindan sects taking action at the same time. I think the abnormality here should not be easily noticed by anyone.

In this way, it seems to explain why so many monks from the late Zifu were asked to come here at the same time to take charge of guarding.

Thinking about it, they must want to protect the line of defense of the Guyuan Mountains in this monster chaos.

At least the Ancient Yuan City where they were located could not be easily lost.

Otherwise, once the monster is allowed to occupy this place.

After so long, it may be impossible to hide the existence of top-level fourth-level spiritual veins here.

At that time, in order to ensure the safety of this area, many demon kings may trigger a medium-sized or even larger-scale beast tide.

Don't doubt the integrity of those demon kings. In the face of such huge interests, any agreement is nonsense.

Unless they really go too far, there is a certain possibility that they will attract the attention of their human Nascent Soul Lord.

Otherwise, the human race can only hold their noses and admit this kind of dumb loss.

In addition to the above, there is another reason why monsters cannot occupy this place, and it is also the most important reason. That is that with this top-level fourth-order spiritual vein, the strength of the monsters will be limited within a certain period of time. There will definitely be a huge increase.

This is definitely a potential huge threat to their entire Liang Kingdom's immortal world.

If it doesn't work well, it's possible that when the next monster beast rebellion comes, their human side will be defeated.

After thinking about these questions, Jiang Chengxuan and everyone couldn't help but have a new doubt in their minds.

That is because the location here is so important. Why not just let the Jindan masters from the two major sects come to guard it in person?

As if seeing the doubts in everyone's hearts, Hua Mengyou couldn't help but continue:

"The main reason why you and I are here to guard the place instead of Jin Dan is because we don't want to alert the monsters.

After all, after so many years, we humans and monsters know very well what the situation is in this area of ​​the Guyuan Mountains.

Let you and I, the Zifu monks, once again, even if the power placed here is slightly larger, we can still explain it with the reason that we, the human race, are determined to defend the defense line.

But if the person here is Jin Dan Zhenren, then it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the Monster King.

At least the existence of the Demon King is itself a destabilizing factor.

Once time passes, it is inevitable that the other party will see some flaws.

The gain outweighs the loss.

When I say this, I think you all can understand it, right? "

"Um."

After hearing Hua Mengyou's explanation, everyone present, including Jiang Chengxuan, couldn't help but nodded.

This explanation does make sense.

It is indeed a very safe arrangement to have six of them late Zifu monks, plus two other Zifu monks, a total of eight Zifu monks guarding here.

In this way, it will not attract too much attention from the Demon King, nor will there be any surprises due to insufficient guarding power here.

"alright."

At this time, Hua Mengyou said again:

“Now I have made it clear what I need to explain.

So next, in order to ensure that the secrets here are not leaked, please take the inner demon oath first. "

Everyone present had obviously expected Hua Mengyou's request.

After all, for such an important matter here, it is impossible for everyone to not require any precautions.

Jiang Chengxuan and others can also understand this.

Soon, the group of people made the Inner Demon Oath one after another in front of Hua Menyou and Li Fei.

A few moments.

Then Jiang Chengxuan said: "Fellow Daoist Hua, we have just arrived here not long ago, and we don't know much about Ancient Yuan City and its surroundings.

You have been here for a while, so you might as well tell us in detail what the current situation is like in our ancient Yuan City and its surroundings. "

After the exchange just now, Jiang Chengxuan and the others already knew that the Bai family and the others who were here just arrived here one step earlier than them.

The corresponding situation here is also not very clear.

At this moment, everyone heard Jiang Chengxuan's words and couldn't help but turn their attention to Hua Mengyou.

Hua Mengyou pondered for a moment, then said with a rather solemn expression:

"To be honest, before you came here, the demonic beasts had already launched an attack on our ancient Yuan City."

"What? Have you already launched an attack on my ancient Yuan City?"

Everyone couldn't help but be surprised.

Hua Mengyou nodded.

"good.

Fortunately, that attack was just a test. Although the number of monsters was large, no monsters above the second level appeared.

Ancient Yuan City did not suffer any threats. "

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan and others couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If it's just a tentative attack, then it's really nothing.

I'm afraid that if the other party comes forward, they will use all their strength, which will cause a real headache.

After all, the number of their monks is no greater than that of monsters.

It's so big that the entire Ancient Yuan City can only gather a few thousand people at most.

And what about the monsters?

Tens of thousands, or even more.

Even if they are noble members of the Purple Mansion, most of them have reached the advanced stage of cultivation.

Facing tens of thousands or even more than one hundred thousand demon beasts, one will also feel great pressure.

It's hard to say how long their city defense formation can last.

At this time, everyone roughly planned and allocated the responsibilities that they would perform in the future, and then quickly left the meeting hall without staying any longer.

When they came outside, Jiang Chengxuan and the others went to their cave here under the personal leadership of Hua Mengyou.

Looking at the backs of Jiang Chengxuan and his entourage leaving, Bai Zixuan of the Bai family couldn't help but frown slightly.

She looked at her brothers and ancestors and said: "Seventh uncle, and brothers, the Jiang family is just a family that has re-emerged in recent years, how can they be on an equal footing with my Bai family?

Especially Hua Mengyou.

Judging from her attitude towards each other, she clearly puts our two families on the same level.

Even in every subsequent patrol and garrison mission, your family, my family, and Hua Mengyou themselves are all the same. Do you think too highly of the Jiang family? "

After hearing Bai Zixuan's words, Bai Mingshan, the ancestor of the Bai family, and Bai Yuanchen, the current head of the Bai family, couldn't help but look at each other.

Then Bai Yuanchen said: "Zixuan, what do you think of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan of the Jiang family?"

"them?"

A flash of thought flashed in Bai Zixuan's eyes, and then she tried to speak:

"It should be the Zifu monk who was just promoted to the later stage, right?

I didn't feel much of a threat from them.

how? Is there any problem between the two of them? "

After saying that, she couldn't help but look at her brother and uncle again.

Bai Yuanchen shook his head and said, "You don't feel threatened by them, that's because the difference in strength between you and them is too big.

Just like ants do not feel threatened by tigers. "

"Well……"

Bai Zixuan suddenly opened her bright eyes slightly.

"How can this be?"

"Nothing is impossible."

Bai Yuanchen said with a slightly solemn expression: "My seventh uncle and I both felt it very clearly just now. We felt unprecedented pressure on Jiang Chengxuan and his wife.

and……"

Having said this, Bai Yuanchen couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then heard him continue:

"Jiang Chengxuan's wife, Shen Ruyan, who is known as the Fairy Luo Lei, has truly reached the ninth level of the Purple Mansion."

"What? The ninth floor of Zi Mansion?"

A look of shock suddenly appeared on Bai Zixuan's face.

You must know that the ancestor of their Bai family, Bai Mingshan, who she now calls her seventh uncle together with them, has a cultivation level at the peak of the ninth level of the Zi Mansion.

Moreover, he stayed in this realm for a full hundred years.

And what about Shen Ruyan?

How long has she been there?

Is this already a ninth-level monk from the Zi Mansion?

When Bai Zixuan thought of this, she seemed to have thought of something, and couldn't help but look at the two people in front of her again, and couldn't help but say:

"Brother, seventh uncle, since Shen Ruyan is already at the ninth level of the Zi Mansion, then her husband Jiang Chengxuan is also...?"
