persimmon peak

The clouds and clouds were stacked one after another. The cultivators gathered together with Meng Kui as the leader.

With the double cover of Dharma and Great Formation, countless Red Rock Devils were floating above Shishan Mountain, but they couldn't disturb this place.

Meng Kui, as the only Nascent Soul cultivator present, looked around and cast a spell to show all the cultivators present the battle at Shishan Mountain.

A large number of Crimson Flame Demonic Beasts stacked one after another, densely surrounding the Lava Immortal Palace.

There are also quite a number of people who rushed to the persimmon city.

Many cultivators in Shixian City contributed to the battle either at the front line or in the city.

Faith stayed in the city alone, running the show.

Zhu Xuanji, Chi Dun, and the monks of the three families all came to Meng Kui.

The magic image changes constantly, revealing many important corners of the battlefield.

One after another, the powerful Red Flame Demonic Beasts were displayed in front of everyone.

Especially among them, there was a snake that was faintly visible in the lava. Its body was slender and it had already taken on the form of a flood dragon!

Everyone's heart sank

Meng Kui's face was solemn as he slowly said,"Everyone has witnessed the current situation."

”

"But according to my calculations, this is only the beginning of the demonic beast tide.

”

"As time passes, the scale of this Beast Tide will increase.

”

"At that time, it's very likely that this Nascent Soul stage snake won't be the only one walking away.

”

The crowd couldn't help but be moved

Compared to human cultivators, demonic beasts often had rough skin and thick flesh, and they had a lot of longevity. They had a huge advantage in terms of physique.

Meng Kui is not a physical cultivator. If he wants to resist Yuanying level demon beasts, he cannot fight head-on on his own. He can only use the city protection array to defend himself.

Meng Kui and the Immortal City Grand Array combined to block a Nascent Soul Stage demonic beast was feasible, but their combat strength was superior.

But if there are two, it's different. The Terran side will be at a disadvantage.

If there are three... then we have to plan for the migration of the citizens and ask for help from the royal family.

"Generally speaking, it's not common for two Yuanying stage demonic beasts to appear in a beast tide.

"Follow the path.

Chi Dun sighed."But our situation this time is unusual. It was the Lava Immortal Palace that opened fire and exploded a large area. The demon beast community is in a strong mood of anger and revenge."

”

"Yuanying level is usually a king, not a king.

But now, everyone is determined to take revenge and destroy the Lava Immortal Palace. Therefore, it is very possible for Nascent Soul demonic beasts to work together!"

Everyone's faces darkened

"Speaking of which, why did the Lava Immortal Palace suddenly fire cannons and bombard Mount Shi, angering so many Crimson Flame demon beasts?" Zhou Nongying asked.

Meng Kui didn't say anything. With a thought, the magic image began to deduce, restoring the scene of the previous shelling.

He had been sitting on the peak of the mountain and overlooking the Lava Immortal Palace. His vision was quite clear and he could observe all kinds of scenes in the Immortal Palace.

Although he was cultivating at that time and did not notice the abnormal movement of the tower immediately, the magic weapon placed in the clouds recorded everything around him.

Therefore, everyone saw that in the Lava Immortal Palace, the original three-story Five Elements Tower rose to six stories.

Then, every floor comes out of the muzzle.

After the mana was infused, the main cannon and the secondary cannon roared together and fired a large number of five-element cannonballs. After drawing colorful trails in the air, they plunged into the lava one after another and finally exploded deep inside Shi Shan's body.

"Gong has gone crazy?!" Zheng Shuanggou was surprised.

"Could it be that it sensed some kind of huge threat, so it attacked ahead of time?" Zheng Danlian guessed.

"No, this kind of shelling is too provocative. This is luring demonic beasts to attack!" Zhu Xuanji made a judgment.

His eyes lit up and his face was solemn: "This is premeditated, man-made."

”

"A cultivator controlled the Five-Element Tower and bombed Mount Shi. He single-handedly caused such a catastrophe!"

"This murderer is extremely vicious, regardless of thousands of lives, and has ulterior motives.

”

"I swear, I will catch him!"

Zhu Xuanji's eyes were sharp, and his heart was filled with anger.

"Is there anyone else who can control this turret? Is it because he has accumulated enough merit points and contributions to obtain the position of Prime Minister?" Zhou Nongying analyzed.

Fan Fan stroked his beard."Strange, where is the palace? It just allowed the murderer to go wild and did not stop him at all?"

Zhu Xuanji gritted his teeth and sighed softly: "Don't count on it."

The Lava Palace should be in a bad state. I'm afraid it can't make normal decisions.

”

Zhu Xuanji glanced at Meng Kui and explained,"Before, Qi Bai fought Sun Tong and Chuiyi Ke. The demonic beasts were also attacking the Lava Immortal Palace.

It can be seen that the defense in the Immortal Palace is weak, and there is a problem with the formation.

In the end, the palace dispatched Taoist masters to barely hold on and drive the enemy out of the palace.

”

"I found the Demon General in the persimmon mountain and used it to trace its roots. I also saw that the palace's condition was too poor, causing the Demon General to die in the battle and be lost outside.

”

"I suspect that the three great Buddhist doctors also suffered the same fate.

”

The crowd was speechless

The week after the announcement: "That's it.

”

Meng Kui kept quiet and didn't tell Zhu Xuanji about his discovery.

but rather allow the conjecture to deviate.

Why did you tell Zhu Xuanji? Meng Kui's magic technique, using the mountain to observe the wind and clouds, cost a lot.

Lost a lot of life to get the truth, will not easily help the enemy

Moreover, Meng Kui could see in his eyes the possibility of cooperation between the Meng family and them.

It was precisely because of this possibility that Meng Kui could not possibly inform Zhu Xuanji of the calculation result.

Meng Kui pondered for a while and slowly said,"Everyone, the murderer must be found and severely punished."

”

"But right now, our real problem isn't to arrest the murderer, but to let the murderer destroy the persimmon immortal city and fail.

”

"Right now, the most important thing is how we survive this demonic beast tide!"

Capturing the murderer and inheriting the inheritance were secondary. The real focus was on how to resist the demon beast tide.

If the resistance fails, it is still a question whether the lava palace exists or not.

We're all worried.

The truth is, we all know it.

If the Immortal Palace does not exist, I'm afraid the Immortal City will also be difficult to protect.

The reason is obvious-no eggs are complete under the nest!

No one can guarantee that after conquering and destroying the Lava Immortal Palace, the demonic beasts will calm down and obediently return to their nests.

It was more likely that their anger hadn't subsided yet and they surged down, completely drowning persimmon city!

If such a situation really happened, thousands of people would definitely die because of it. They would die in the mouths of all kinds of Crimson Flame Demonic Beasts.

Zheng Shuanggou: "Lava Immortal Palace is easy to defend but difficult to attack

We have attracted the most demonic beasts. We must help defend and kill demonic beasts as much as possible so that they will retreat.

”

There are too many Crimson Flame Demonic Beasts. It's impossible to kill them all.

However, after reaching a certain level, the demon beast community would retreat one by one.

Under such circumstances, only by killing to stop the killing and displaying the strength of the human race could the extremely angered demonic beasts regain their calm.

Without Meng Kui's persuasion, they had a broad vision, insight into the battle situation, and quickly reached a consensus after some communication with each other.

If you want to protect the Immortal City, you have to protect the Lava Immortal Palace.

The Lava Immortal Palace was still the inheritance of the Three Sects. The benefits were huge and could not be lost!

Meng Kui said in a deep voice,"The current situation requires cultivators to guard the Lava Immortal Palace.

”

"So far, we've only detected one Nascent Soul stage walking snake.

”

"However, the scale of this beast tide is so huge that it's definitely not just a Nascent Soul stage beast.

We need to take precautions!"

"Esteemed Three Sects is a Void Refinement Realm expert. This is one of the palaces. The palace itself is very powerful.

”

"Cultivators like you, relying on the Lava Immortal Palace, can occupy a huge geographical position and fight against Nascent Soul opponents.

”

The monks understand what Meng Kui means.

Someone needed to pin down the Nascent Soul stage demonic beast head-on, and then fight for it, so that they could personally kill it

If two Nascent Soul demonic beasts were to be dispatched at the same time, the cultivator would have to rely on the Lava Immortal Palace to temporarily stall one of them and hand the other over to Meng Kui.

Meng Kui was the most powerful human cultivator.

Zhou Nongying suddenly asked,"Do we need to ask the Southern Bean royal family for help now?"

Meng Kui shook his head, indicating that there was no need for this at the moment.

Not one bit of help.

hand

It is true that the situation has not yet reached this stage

On the other hand, once this is done, the achievements will inevitably be greatly discounted.

Meng Kui looked at Zhu Xuanji and said,"I intend to gather all the manpower to defend the Lava Immortal Palace."

”

"Purple Cloud Pavilion and Supreme Purity Palace can invite help from both sides.

What do you think of Zhu Shenzhu?"

The faces of the Zheng family changed slightly.

Zhu Xuanji nodded his head to show his approval.

It was impossible for Meng Kui not to know that the legacy disciple of Taiqing Palace had already been killed.

But pretend not to know, there is no flaw between the words, showing that the immortal official is old

Meng Kui added,"That cloud merchant's power can also be borrowed."

Especially that cloud whale. It was in the Nascent Soul stage after all.

Zhu Shenbu, what do you think?"

Zhu Xuanji nodded,"This Yun Shang troop is huge in scale. It can travel all over the world. Naturally, it has two brushes."

In terms of combat power, you can expect more.

”

"However, we are outsiders after all, so we can't be completely careless.

”

"Moreover, we still need the City Lord's Mansion to personally come out to discuss the matter of sending troops.

”

Meng Kui nodded slightly and finally said,"Besides us, there are also Yang Chanyu and Luo Shang in Shixian City."

”

"How does Zhu Shenzhu view the two of us?"

Zhu Xuanji pondered and said,"If you are tempted by each other, you can borrow both of your strength. There is nothing wrong with it."

”

Meng Kui's expression relaxed

It is impossible to directly raise this matter. After all, the charge of colluding with evil people is very detrimental to Meng Kui's future political career.

But Zhu Xuanji, a member of the royal family, is different.

Recruiting two evil people was a sensitive matter and could easily be used by political opponents as evidence against them.

And the benefits of recruiting people are also very good

On the one hand, it's borrowing combat power

On the other hand, it is to guard against the two of them, to place them under their own eyes in advance, to suppress them and prevent them from acting as demons.

Zhu Xuanji: "I need to send a letter to the king to report the situation here."

”

"In addition, I have another proposal

”

"We have a team of reformers in all four directions.

It's time for these team members to enter the Immortal Palace together!"

Zhu Xuanji paid more attention to the duties of the Immortal Palace because of the bombardment of the Five Elements Tower.

Zhu Xuanji refers to Xiaohui's situation and thinks that the members of the reform team are all trial disciples and are our own people of Lava Immortal Palace.

In the path of entering the celestial palace, he received great preferential treatment

They compete for positions and have great advantages.

There are many positions. Even if Zhu Xuanji practices his cultivation method, no matter how hard he works, they are not among their options.

There was no choice! Everyone looked at each other for a while, and then someone nodded."This is the right thing to do, but what if one of them sneaks into the Immortal Palace while we are fighting against the demon beast tide and wantonly fights for the inheritance of the Immortal Palace?"

Zhu Xuanji had expected this question and immediately said,"Sign an alliance to bind us and all the members of the reform team."

”

"During the demonic beast tide, no one is allowed to enter the Immortal Palace and secretly compete for the inheritance of the three sects!"

"We desperately need our own people to occupy various positions in the Immortal Palace. Only then can we display the power of the Immortal Palace better!"

Everyone had no objections. They immediately discussed the contents of the alliance for a while before signing it.

Zhu Zhen found Zhu Xuan Ji

"Brother, I came here at the right time.

Now that the demonic beasts are wreaking havoc, I want to help you too

"Zhu Needle Road

Zhu Xuanji asked curiously,"Are you done investigating?"

Zhu Zhen smiled bitterly."Brother, how long has it been? I'm not a Nascent Soul cultivator. How many results can I achieve?"

"But…"

And then he said,"This boy is not ordinary.

”

"I experienced a lot of hardships in my early years, and I have great courage and courage to fight.

”

"Good at getting around, but different from those who grovel

It's clearly only Qi Refinement Stage, but I feel like I have cultivation too.

”

"Brother, do you want to cultivate him?"

"Well, that's a good goal, actually.

”

"My family originated from the North Wind Country and came to my country to establish a foothold temporarily. There is a gap between us and their forces.

”

"In this case, home is our Zhu royal family, the most suitable for allies on the ground.

”

"In addition, if you have talent, if you succeed in cultivation in the future, you will definitely have extraordinary methods.

The possibility of cultivating to a high level…"

Zhu Xuanji listened to Zhu Zhen's words and quickly waved his hand: "Wait a minute, wait a minute."

I asked you to investigate, not compliment me.

”

Zhu Zhen laughed and winked,"Brother, don't be too carried away."

”

"When I investigated, I discovered that there were at least two groups of people who were secretly investigating.

”

"If you really want to recruit, you must hurry up

If such a good seedling falls into their hands, it won't be good for our Zhu family.

”

Zhu Xuanji was silent

Zhu Zhen raised his appeal again. He wanted to help and enter the Lava Immortal Palace to fight against the demon beast tide.

Zhu Xuanji fell into hesitation

Compared to the demon beast tide, the human side was clearly at a disadvantage.

Therefore, at this moment, any fighting force is important.

At the same time, a figure appeared in Zhu Xuanji's mind.

"When the Five Elements Tower fires, the soul enters the Immortal Palace.

”

"It is impossible to control the tower.

”

"I've never been seen before, and I've never been in the palace.

”

"However, it's only at the fourth qi layer…I can eliminate the suspicion.

”

Thinking of this, Zhu Xuanji nodded to Zhu Zhen: "Fine."

”

"Go to the Immortal Palace and fight the Beast Tide.

”

"With your attainments, it's easy to reach the standard and enter the Immortal Palace.

”

Zhu Zhen was overjoyed and quickly cupped his fists."Thank you, Brother!"

Lava Fairy Palace, Main Hall

Nervous, rather restless, constantly hovering

"I'm going to die! I'm going to die!" He was so nervous that his whole body was trembling.

It knew very well that it couldn't stop these extremely angry Flaming Demonic Beasts by itself.

But in the next moment, Meng Kui personally took action and cast a spell to clear a temporary passage.

We unite, come to the vicinity of the celestial palace, receive the precious light, and enter the celestial palace together

After arriving at the Immortal Palace, they immediately rushed to the front lines in all directions to participate in the battle and resist the beast tide.

"Oh!"

Seeing this scene, I was completely relieved.

It lay on the throne for a while before it recovered.

It looked through space, scanning the battle lines, and gradually laughed until its mouth cracked open.

"As expected of you!

”

"The development of the situation is exactly as you expected!"

"Although we blew up the demonic beasts, we will bear the consequences.

”

"This feeling is really comfortable!"

"But do you know what makes me the happiest?"

"Hahaha, it's you who will not have the position of Palace Master from now on!

”

"No matter how crafty you are, you still suffered from information loss, allowing me to trap you this time.

Hehehe!"

There are many things that are not told

For example, participating in the palace examination requires merit.

Merits are reversed and become negative.

Although he had a position, he fired his cannon and triggered the demon beast tide, which eventually damaged the entire Lava Immortal Palace.

When the time comes for unified settlement, merit points will be heavily deducted and become a deficit in the deficit! You will completely miss the final examination quota.

"So, I am the ultimate winner!"
