The Wheel-Turning Master.

"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Jiang, disrespectful and disrespectful."

When they arrived at Yanshou Peak, all the Yuanyings went to discuss matters. Lin Bai and Jiang Yatou were waiting outside, and Gao Yuanyuan came over.

He was still dressed in white, with a smile on his face, a wine gourd hanging around his waist, and a slight smell of alcohol on his body. After Lin Bai introduced Jiang girl, Gao Yuanyuan was obviously a little surprised.

There was no way. The return of Zhou Huishan’s old friend was a big deal, and Jiang Xingchi, as the mediator, was famous far and wide.

No matter whether it is a good reputation or a bad reputation, the name of Qiaoshan Jiang family has already suppressed the Gu family and the Yang family.

Seeing the big shots discussing matters, Gao Yuanyuan invited Lin Jiang and the others to his residence to discuss the matter.

Lin Bai had received favor from Gao Yuanyuan, and he also wanted to find out what Yunxia Sect was thinking, so he readily agreed.

The three of them left Yanshou Peak and walked south for more than ten miles before arriving at a camp.

There were all independent cultivators here, ranging from Jindan to Qi training, with more than 3,000 people. They were led by Gao Yuanyuan and three other Jindan cultivators, but Gao Yuanyuan never intervened.

After entering the account, Gao Yuanyuan took out the wine glass, and while pouring the wine, he said that the wine was very delicious and hard to come by. He also said that there were many mediocre people here and no one had fun. If he wanted to find Gai Chengfei to drink, he had to go to Songhe Mountain, which was against military regulations.

After drinking for a while, Gao Yuanyuan did not ask about the Northern Expedition, but instead recalled the past.

"I remember you went to Mianlong Mountain to seek the opportunity of revelation. I saw your character at that time, and now you have indeed formed a pill. Huang Ruhua is also blessed with great fortune. Tie Huasheng treats her like his own child, and Fairy Chen Yu even accepted her as his apprentice."

Gao Yuanyuan kept pouring wine with a smile on her face, "A while ago, she came to my Yunxia Sect to find Qu Ruyi, begged a lot of people, but didn't say a word to me."

"She doesn't think much." Lin Bai smiled.

"Master also said that the fairy accepted Huang Ruhua as her disciple because she loved her simplicity."

Gao Yuanyuan stroked the wine glass, looked at Jiang Xiaobai, and asked, "The Northern Expedition is led by your ancestor. How long will it take?"

"Now that Zhou Huishan's old friend has arrived, it must be soon." Jiang Xiaobai didn't know either. She had never asked Jiang Xingchi, and Jiang Xingchi never told her much.

Gao Yuanyuan looked at Lin Bai again and said, "My dear brother, you are the favorite general of Patriarch Gu. Do you know anything?"

"Within a year, Black Wind Mountain will be conquered." Lin Bai said.

According to what the fairy said, Old Ancestor Xiang will have to refine the black ice jade marrow within three to five years, and from then on he will be able to survive the tribulation more safely.

What the fairy said is certainly reliable, and with the ability of the ancestor, it will surely be accomplished within three years.

When the time comes, I will go up Wanshou Mountain. If there is no major event, I guess he will not come out to help.

Now a year has passed, Jiang Xingchi is fully prepared, and it is clear that the war is imminent.

Moreover, no matter how you look at it, the outcome of this battle has been decided.

The so-called sect's foundation, disciples, sacred places, scriptures, and outputs are all false.

The great power belongs to one person, and the real foundation is the number of the top monks.

In the East China Sea, Yuanying is the highest level cultivator. Whoever has more Yuanying has the confidence to speak.

But Yuanying are also divided into different levels. For example, there are five Yuanying in Wuque Mountain, Yubi Mountain and Yin'e Mountain, but they are all old and weak, clearly dry bones in a tomb, and anyone can take a bite.

Although Qiaoshan has one more Jiang Xingchi, the number of Nascent Souls is still less than that of Jiuzhashan. However, Jiang Xingchi, with his body in the initial stage, can lead the Northern Expedition, and Taoist Lihuo has to obey his orders.

It’s because there is a Xiang Wuhui in Qiaoshan, who is the number one person below the level of Huashen.

From planning the conquest of Yuliu Mountain, to the northern expedition to Shoutian Pavilion, and then to the encirclement of Zhouhui Mountain's old friends by various sects, Jiang Xingchi's plans were all possible only because he had Xiang Wuhui, who was about to advance to the Divine Transformation Realm, to support him.

However, having more Yuanyings also has its advantages. Now, there are nine Yuanyings in the area of ​​Yanshou Peak, while there are only two Yuanyings in the Black Wind Mountain opposite.

The pros and cons are clear, and the outcome is determined.

This game between the Nascent Soul forces is bound to have a winner.

Previously, Jiuzhashan had three Yuanyings, Qiaoshan had three Yuanyings, and the other side had five Yuanyings, so they were not at an advantage. Now, Zhouhuishan had five Yuanyings for nothing, and although most of them were old, they were outnumbered.

Moreover, with Jiang Xingchi's ability, he would surely be able to persuade, or have the means to make, those who were about to die to die.

Previously, Wuque Mountain, Yubi Mountain and Yinshan Mountain were forced into a desperate situation, and there was little value in dying. But if they could die this time, they would surely be able to negotiate more favorable conditions for Zhou Huishan's old people.

Thinking of this, Lin Bai raised his glass to toast Jiang Yatou.

Gao Yuanyuan also raised her glass.

"..." Jiang Xiaobai was very smart and had thought of all these issues long ago. She glared at the two of them and said unhappily, "Senior Brother Gao, be careful of your Song Jingxian! And you, Lin Zhuanlun, your reputation is getting better and better. Tsk tsk tsk, you are a wicked servant bullying your master!"

She had been drinking and seemed angry.

At this time, a young female disciple came in, knelt down before Gao Yuanyuan first, called him "Master", and then knelt down before Lin Jiang and the others.

"This is my new disciple, who is also a casual cultivator." Gao Yuanyuan nodded with a smile and asked, "What's your name?"

"Master, my name is Qinghe." The female disciple was stunned.

Lin Jiang and the other person presented a gift, and Qing He knelt down to accept it.

"There is a Taoist friend named Shi outside the door, asking to see Senior Zhuanlun." Qinghe said again.

Soon, Shi Qingyu came in, bowed first, then leaned towards Lin Bai and said, "The ancestor invites you to come over."

It seems that the big shots have finished reminiscing about the past and are going to discuss important matters in the fog.

"Lead the way." Lin Bai stood up.

"Didn't you mention me?" Jiang Xiaobai asked sullenly, his face red from drinking.

Shi Qingyu shook her head.

Jiang Xiaobai muttered twice, staggered to his feet, glanced at Qing He, and she actually stepped forward and pinched his cheek, then smiled at Gao Yuanyuan and said, "Senior Brother Gao, let your disciple take me around so I can see the layout of this place."

"Just don't mind her being stupid." Gao Yuanyuan said with a smile.

"Senior..." Qinghe should be an honest child. His face turned red and he stammered, unable to speak.

Seeing that Jiang Yatou was going crazy after drinking, Lin Bai raised his finger and pointed at her forehead, then fed her some medicine, and then set off with Master Qingyu.

When they arrived at Yanshou Peak, there was a thatched cottage on top. Master Qingyu led Lin Bai inside.

The cottage was simple and unremarkable. When I opened the door and entered the house, I felt dazed, and when I opened my eyes again, I found myself in a strange place.

There was a thick fog all around, and I didn't know where it was spreading to.

This is a secret treasure of space!

Soon the fog dissipated, and nine people were seen, each sitting on a cushion, scattered around.

Some of them were smiling, while a few other old men had miserable looks on their faces.

Lin Bai had heard of and seen these people before, and the leader was naturally Jiang Xingchi from Qiaoshan.

There are also three Yuanyings in Jiuzha Mountain, namely Lihuo Taoist, Du Jueming and Yan Qingfeng.

Then there were Meng Shanhe and Mu Lian from Yinshan Mountain, both of whom were very old, especially the latter, who was said to be nearing the end of her life. Yubi Mountain also had two Yuanyings, Yuan Jie and Gui Zhenzi.

The last one is Lei Zaixiao from Wuque Mountain.

The old people in Zhouhui Mountain all have white hair and beards, while the people in Qiao Mountain and Jiuzha Mountain are still in their prime.

Moreover, when it comes to realm cultivation, although the people in Zhou Huishan are old, they are still not as good as the Taoist Lihuo here.

Seeing this scene, Lin Bai quickly knelt down and saluted.

"Is this child the one that Fellow Daoist Gu and Zou Mi are fighting for?" asked Qingfeng at the Jiuzhashan Banquet with a smile.

"Brother Yan, don't believe the rumors." Jiang Xingchi twirled his beard, smiled and shook his head, "He did something for me before and caused a big disturbance in Shoutian Pavilion, so Zou Mi held a grudge against him."

Yan Qingfeng smiled but didn't say whether he believed it or not.

"What do you want him to do?" asked Du Jueming of Jiuzhashan with a frown.

"Senior Brother Yang and Senior Sister Gu are stuck in Songhe Mountain, so Lin Zhuanlun is attending the meeting on their behalf." Jiang Xingchi said with a smile.

No one asked any more questions.

Jiang Xingchi then talked about the arrangements for the Northern Expedition.

Just as Lin Bai expected, they first took Black Wind Mountain and then surrounded Wanshou Mountain.

Jiang Xingchi's arrangements were clear. Songhe Mountain was short of manpower, and in order to prevent Wanshou Mountain from making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, Meng Shanhe from Yinshan Mountain and Yuan Jie from Yubi Mountain were needed to go to Songhe Mountain to take charge of the defense, in order to guard against Kong Shu.

In this way, the two Yuanyings of Yinshan Mountain are bound to separate, and the same goes for the two of Yubi Mountain.

Then Jiang Xingchi took out a picture album and threw it out, talking about the protective magic circle of Black Wind Mountain.

This protective formation is the Tianshou Guiyuan Formation. It is shaped like a divine turtle and has excellent protection. It can be easily eliminated without a trace by a Nascent Soul attack.

"This divine tortoise formation is in line with the meaning of the Great Dao. It stands between heaven and earth and cannot be broken in a hurry." Jiang Xingchi stroked his beard and smiled. "Although this formation is naturally formed and is in perfect harmony with the Black Wind Mountain, there are still traces to follow. As long as we work together, we will be able to break its tortoise shell and its four legs within two or three months at most!"

As he spoke, he tapped the atlas and drew five dots, which were the four legs and head of the divine tortoise.

"Did Xiao Xie come up with this idea?" Gui Zhenzi from Yubi Mountain suddenly spoke. His voice was old, his face was haggard, his hair was sparse, and he looked like a country man waiting to die in the mortal world.

Xie Qingxuan was the second group of people to go south, and he conceived a baby only after he occupied the land in Shoutian Pavilion.

"This is the method of breaking the formation that Senior Brother Xie has been exploring for a long time and finally decided upon." Jiang Xingchi said.

"Where is he?" Gui Zhenzi asked with narrowed eyes.

"Thank you, senior brother, for your carefree life. I really don't know anything about you." Jiang Xingchi answered sincerely.

"We are weak and will let you drive us around. If things don't work out, we have nothing to say and should just accept our fate." Gui Zhenzi suddenly opened his eyes wide, his eyes were clear and he didn't look old anymore. His hair and beard fluttered as he stared at Jiang Xingchi and said in a deep voice: "If things work out—"

“If it succeeds, Zhouhui Mountain will naturally return to its original owner. I, Qiaoshan, will only use Wanshou Mountain. But from now on, no matter whether my senior brother Qiaoshan ascends to heaven or not, Wanshou Mountain will not be the place of one family or one surname. If fellow Taoists want to make further progress in the future, such as Brother Lihuo, Brother Yan, and Brother Du, they can all be used!” Jiang Xingchi was very fair.

As soon as these words were spoken, the three people from Jiuzha Mountain all looked at the old people from Zhuzhou Huishan.

"We are homeless and jobless, wandering around everywhere, just like a loser on the roadside, how can we occupy such a large land?" Gui Zhenzi shook his head slightly, closed his eyes, and continued: "I just hope to have a place to live and continue the Taoist tradition."

Seeing that he was not greedy, Jiang Xingchi also smiled and said, "If we can drive away the strong man from outside the region, I, Qiaoshan, will share life and death with Zhou Huishan in the future. If Zhou Huishan has problems, it means Qiaoshan has problems."

At this point, he added, "Whether my Senior Brother Qiaoshan Xiang succeeds or not, this statement is true."

"Jiang Xingchi, we are dying people and we have no say in what will happen to us in the future. I feel uneasy that Xiang Wuhui doesn't show up." Meng Shanhe from Yinshan said.

"When the birds are gone, the bows are put away, and the whales devour their homeland. I understand what you are worried about." Jiang Xingchi smiled, "Xie Qingxuan has endured for hundreds of years to get to where he is today, and now he has fled to another place, maybe he is also worried about the past events of Shoutian Pavilion."

At this point, Jiang Xingchi pointed at Lin Bai and said, "Brother Xie was acquainted with the late Yuanying Gu Qingshan from Qiaoshan. This Lin Zhuanlun can be considered half of Brother Xie's disciple."

Then Jiang Xingchi took out a letter and said, "Thank you for leaving this letter before you left. You can all take a look at it."

Gui Zhenzi took the letter and found that there was indeed a mark left by Xie Qingxuan on it. After reading it, he gave it to Yuan Jie in turn.

After reading the letter, all the old friends of Zhou Huishan said nothing more and passed it back to Hui Zhenzi.

"You have studied the book "Entering the Formation", which makes you half a disciple of mine from Zhouhui Mountain. And you have received a favor from the Wood Demon, so you can take a look at it." Gui Zhenzi pushed the letter out.

Lin Bai took it respectfully and took a closer look at what was written in the letter. It only talked about an old story, about a wood demon who was trapped underground in the past, imitating the body of a cicada pupa, and then was reborn and achieved the Nascent Soul stage.

"..." Lin Bai immediately understood that Xie Qingxuan wanted all the old people of Zhou Huishan to live towards death in order to survive.

Seeing Jiang Xingchi taking out the letter so frankly, he must have discussed it with Xie Qingxuan, and Xie Qingxuan also agreed to this matter, and wanted these old people to take the lead.

The reason why Gui Zhenzi let him see it was to let him know their determination, and even told this matter to Gu Qingshui, hoping that he could accept their kindness and take care of future generations.

Lin Bai bowed to Gui Zhenzi again, and then saluted to all the old friends in Zhou Huishan.

Sure enough, after this incident, no one objected to Jiang Xingchi's arrangements, and instead actively discussed how to defeat the enemy.

The Yuanyings only talked about the war, not about interests, nor did they discuss the ownership of the spiritual land afterwards.

After three days, they finally reached an agreement. From breaking the formation to setting an ambush to prevent Kong Shu from coming to their rescue, the various plots were not complicated, but everything was taken into consideration, even the plan for the other party to use the magical treasure had a plan.

After a while, Jiang Xingchi took Meng Shanhe and Yuan Jieju to Songhe Mountain, and Lin Bai followed them.

After going over the plan again, Jiang Xingchi also asked Gu Qingshui to ask Lin Bai to go to Yanshou Peak, saying that it would be convenient for him to use it.

"He has an important position here." Gu Qingshui did not agree this time.

Jiang Xingchi showed a rare expression of surprise, smiled bitterly, and went straight to Yanshou Peak.

Then the messenger De Xing brought news that Yanshou Peak was reorganizing military affairs and counting supplies, and Gui Zhenzi and Mu Lian, two Yuanying, went to the Black Wind Mountain to challenge, saying that they wanted to talk to their old friend Huo Taiping.

Huo Taiping was also an old acquaintance of Zhou Huishan. He was originally part of the third group to go south, but was eventually recruited back by Shoutian Pavilion. They have been living in peace over the years.

This is an attempt to persuade the enemy to surrender, but also an attempt to provoke others.

However, Huo Taiping did not show up at all. He only sent a Jindan junior to reply, and persuaded Gui Zhenzi and Mu Lian to submit to Shoutian Pavilion, saying that they would have a good spiritual place in the future.

Seeing that there is no room for negotiation, we can only break the formation first.

Taoist Lihuo is at the head of the turtle, Gui Zhenzi and Mu Lian are on the left, Yan Qingfeng and Lei Zaixiao are on the right.

Jiang Xingchi and Du Jueming were on standby, and all the disciples prepared their own formations for defense.

After a few days, the Black Wind Mountain protective formation changed. Xia Yufeng could no longer sit still, so he opened the back door and rushed out for a while, but was ambushed by Jiang Xingchi.

Afterwards, Wanshou Mountain also made a series of moves, and Kong Shu also showed up, but Songhe Mountain only defended and did not attack, so there was nothing they could do.

And there is always a cloud floating in the sky, as if it is haunting.

After more than a month, Lin Bai felt a stir in his heart and felt delighted. He silently felt that it must be that Xiu Xiu's Dan Jie was successful.

Just as I was wondering when the fairy would be able to bring Xiuxiu to see me, news came from outside that the Black Wind Mountain formation could not hold out for long and had been broken. (End of this chapter)
