HEAVENLY DAO RANK: I WAS EXPOSED AS A SWORD GOD
Chapter 73: Xi Liang Invasion
The flying ship passed through the light sails, and the fog in front of them instantly disappeared, revealing the true face of the Nine-Tailed Mountain in front of everyone.
The disciples rejoiced in the bubbling boats.
Although the peak of the Nine-Tailed Mountain was not high, the scenery was incredible.
All things were filled with vitality, and strangely beautiful flowers and plants filled the surroundings. Under the sunset, it looked more elegant and refined.
Conversely, the construction site on the top of the mountain gives the impression of a slum.
However, Ye Qiu had told everyone that the sect was being built, so everyone knew what was going to happen.
“This Nine-Tailed Mountain today seems so beautiful!” Ye Qiu was also surprised, but he did not think too much about it.
It must be because of the grand array formation.
He rode a boat flying slowly towards the Daoist temple at the peak of the Nine-Tailed Mountain.
"Ji Qinglan, you really benefited from this disaster!" Elder Nie suddenly said, his voice slightly excited.
Ji Qinglan was a bit confused. "Could there be something special about this sect!"
In fact, Ji Qinglan had also sensed before that the spiritual energy here seemed to be extremely rich.
"That's right. Dao's fate here was extremely rich. Just now, I almost thought that I had arrived at the Eternal Domain. This must be the Holy Land! No wonder they could nurture a strange genius like Li Yu! You're really lucky this time. Cultivating here for one year was equivalent to cultivating for at least ten years!” Old Nie's voice became even more excited.
Hearing Elder Nie's words, Ji Qinglan's depressed gaze instantly brightened, and she became excited.
A year is equivalent to ten years? That's unbelievable!
Is this the secret of Li Yu's strength?
In that case, if I cultivate here, will I be able to defeat Li Yu someday?
Although that day might have been far away, Ji Qinglan's heart was again ignited with fighting spirit and hope.
…
After the disciples arrived at the Nine-Tailed Mountain, they realized how incredible the place was.
The air was filled with energy that made one feel as if they were bathed in the spring breeze and shone with vitality, nourishing their body and bones.
It was like taking a bath in a soothing hot spring.
Moreover, many of these disciples had a foundation in cultivation. There were even some disciples from the cultivation family.
Therefore, they could clearly sense that the spirit energy in the Nine-Tailed Mountain was extremely dense as if they were among countless spirit stones.
Even without doing breathing exercises, spiritual energy would still flow into the bodies of the disciples and change their meridians. That's magical.
“I did not expect there would be such a sacred land in our Great Xia Dynasty!”
"That's right. My father once took me to the Jade Pure Dao Sect. Even there, it is much lower than our Qingyun Sect!”
“We really made the right choice! This is just a blessed land!” All the students were excited.
Right now, Li Yu, Li Qingyun, and Wu Chang were walking over.
Ye Qiu immediately bowed respectfully. “Greetings, Sect Master. Greetings, Eldest Brother Eldest!”
The disciples followed his example and cupped their hands together. “Greetings, Sect Master. Greetings, Eldest Brother Eldest!”
Li Qingyun looked at over a thousand disciples and slightly nodded with a serious expression. There was an awe-inspiring aura, and he had the attitude of an expert.and his own temperament made people respectful.
Besides, there was an unusual-looking Wu Chang beside him. He was like a ghost whose figure was shrouded in a robe, and both of his phantom fire-like pupils flickered with a faint light.
Immediately, Li Qingyun welcomed the new disciples and gave a feisty speech.
The disciples were excited and overwhelmed with emotions.
They all seemed ready to sacrifice their lives for the development of the sect.
Even Li Yu inevitably wanted to cheer for her father.
As expected of the Holy Son of the Sacred Horizon Sacred Land, his speech ability was indeed at the level of an outstanding student.
Under the influence of Li Qingyun (brainwashing), these young disciples even felt that using the ground as a bed and the sky as a blanket was the highest form of cultivation.
It was their first step in pursuing Li Yu's footsteps.
A few days later, the imperial flying boat arrived gracefully. Murong Xingqiao personally led and delivered the wealth as well as the thousands of craftsmen and many construction materials that the emperor gifted to the Qingyun Sect.
Other than cultivation, the disciples spent most of their time on sect building.
Coupled with the effects of the Ancient Dao Fortune Tree, it greatly increased the efficiency of the craftsmen. This has accelerated the progress of the project several times.
…
At the same time, on the border of the Great Xia Dynasty and Xi Liang Dynasty, there were sounds of drums and thunder, the neighing of war horses, the flapping of flags, and the clang of armor.
Xi Liang's army was like a black cloud that kept approaching the Great Xia Dynasty's army.
However, the roar from the side of the Great Xia Dynasty was equally earth-shattering. The soldiers were on high alert, and their gazes were firm. Their auras were incredible, and they had no intention of retreating.
After hearing about Ji Qinglan's incident, emperor Xi Liang was furious.
He instantly sent troops to the border and pressed the Great Xia Dynasty to return Ji Qinglan to Xi Liang.
Unexpectedly, after a few days, the Great Xia Dynasty did not give a satisfactory answer. Instead, they gathered their troops and faced Xi Liang's forces, not retreating at all.
What surprised Xi Liang's troops even more was that the disorganized brisket troops now had high spirits with spirit in their voices.
Everyone was united, and a terrifying aura had gathered.
The unified roar made the soldiers of the Xi Liang Dynasty shudder.
"Is the Great Xia Dynasty seriously going to fight us to the death this time around?"
“F * ck, where do they get their courage from? Whenever they are suppressed by our soldiers, they always take the initiative to express goodwill and seek peace! They even gave up the land and compensated us. Why are these cowards taking the wrong medicine today? Are they not afraid of death?”
"Huh, then we will defeat them until they submit!" The generals of the Xi Liang Dynasty discussed.
…
Not long after Murong Xingqiao left the Qingyun Sect, two figures flew from afar, but they were blocked by the Protective Mountain Formation.
Of the two, one was cold-looking and a hot figure, and the other had white hair and was youthful in appearance, emitting an aura like that of a sage.
They were Ji Qinglan's guardian, Yu Feng, and her master, Master Qingfeng.
Master Qingfeng is the guardian of the Xi Liang Dynasty. He was at the Soul Formation Intermediate Stage and was one of the top five experts of the Xi Liang Dynasty.
Right now, Ji Qinglan had just completed a grand cultivation cycle in the Daoist temple. He opened his eyes filled with joy.
“Older Nie is right. This Qingyun Sect was truly a Holy Land to cultivate. The cultivation speed here is really advancing by leaps and bounds.”
Ji Qinglan was very happy.
His cultivation level had increased significantly over the past few days. It was more than ten times faster than before.
Therefore, the current Ji Qinglan no longer felt uneasy in her heart. He no longer felt that entering the Qingyun Sect was a form of humiliation.
Rather, it was just like what Elder Nie had said. It was a blessing in disguise for him to cultivate here.
Even if Li Yu kicked him out now, he was unwilling to leave.
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in the air. "Your Majesty, Yufeng requested an audience!"
Ji Qinglan was shocked. He looked up and indeed saw Yu Feng and Master Qingfeng standing outside the grand array light screen in the distance.
Ji Qinglan's figure flashed and flew straight over, asking, "Senior Qingfeng, Yufeng, why are you two here?"
The arrival of Yu Feng and Master Qingfeng attracted the attention of everyone from the Qingyun Sect, including Li Yu.
“Your Majesty, Your Majesty has sent his troops. If the Great Xia Dynasty still refuses to release you, our Xi Liang army will attack the Great Xia and attack Nan'an City! Our Xi Liang experts will also flatten this Nine-Tailed Mountain!” Yu Feng said word by word with murderous eyes.
