Xiuxian, I have a high martial arts world

Chapter 139: Destroy the fake pill in a snap and return to Yanlai Realm

After the drum sounded, everyone in the city closed their doors and windows, feeling threatened.

They all knew that this demon sect would not kill mortals, but would slaughter them in blood sacrifices!

At the same time, the monks in the city also gathered and took action.

Soon, a group of about three hundred monks was formed.

The leader was naturally Shao Wenmin, and besides him there were a dozen foundation-building cultivators.

The rest are all Qi Refining monks...

At this time, the faces of these monks were not very good.

Even the more timid ones' legs are shaking...

Lin Chen stood not far away, watching all this, and said silently in his heart:
"There are quite a few people, but unfortunately they are just a mob..."

Three hundred monks sounds like a lot of people.

But when Lin Chen swept his spiritual sense over them, he found that there were less than a hundred of these three hundred cultivators who were able to fight.

The remaining two hundred Qi Refining cultivators were all in the early stage of Qi Refining, and most of them were only at the first or second level of Qi Refining, no different from ordinary people.

Moreover, most of these cultivators are independent practitioners, and their skills and cultivation are far inferior to those of disciples from sects and families.

"I don't know how strong those demon sect monks are."

Lin Chen's heart moved slightly, and he turned into a beam of light and climbed to the top of the city.

However, a few miles away, a large group of monks gathered, with no less than three hundred of them.

When his spiritual sense swept over, Lin Chen raised his eyebrows.

"Compared to the cultivators of the Righteous Alliance, these Demonic cultivators are quite interesting..."

Although there are also 300 monks, the quality of those demonic monks is much higher.

There are no less than thirty foundation-building cultivators, many of whom are in the late foundation-building stage.

The rest of the cultivators were all in the middle stage of Qi Refining or above, and they exuded violent auras, obviously having been through many battles.

The monk in the lead was actually a fake pill.

"Tsk tsk, if I hadn't come...the three hundred monks outside the city would have really massacred everyone in Xinliang City..."

Lin Chen said secretly.

Although not as terrifying as the team led by the ghost-eyed old monster in Yudai City back then, these cultivators are still acceptable.

Shao Wenmin brought three hundred cultivators to the city wall and looked down at the demon cultivators in the distance.

"Why don't you retreat quickly! I have already requested support, and the army of the Righteous Alliance will be here soon!" Shao Wenmin shouted on the city wall.

The demonic monks below didn't take it seriously and without any further ado, they just took their magic weapons and attacked the city gate.

After just one encounter, the several-meter-high city gate was blown down.

A big hole was opened on the city wall, and three hundred demon cultivators filed in and rushed into the city.

Shao Wenmin's face turned pale when he saw this, and he quickly ordered his monks to counterattack.

Fireballs, water dragons, vines, swords, spears, and halberds...

For a moment, there was a colorful scene, and all kinds of magic weapons and spells were smashed to pieces.

But after several rounds of fighting, the demon cultivator clearly had the upper hand.

Whether it is magic weapons or the cultivation level of cultivators, the two sides are not on the same level.

Lin Chen stood at a corner of the city wall, holding up his body's protective true energy.

He did not rush to take action, but continued to look at the demon monk below.

“There shouldn’t be any hidden Jindan old monsters among this group of demon cultivators, right?”

Lin Chen muttered.

Although with his strength, ordinary Jindan cultivators can no longer pose a threat.

But it is better to be safe than sorry. Lin Chen has no relatives or friends in Xinliang City or Zhengdao League.

It's fine to earn rewards by taking appropriate actions, but it's obviously impossible to ask him to risk his life...

After a while, half of the three hundred Righteous Alliance monks were killed or injured.

Over a hundred monks' bodies were lying on the city wall.

Although the remaining monks were still fighting back, many of their legs were shaking, and they had obviously lost their spirit.

On the other hand, the demon side had fifty or sixty casualties.

But the rest were all very brave, and even more than a dozen foundation-building monks rushed up the city wall and were about to capture Xinliang City.

"senior!"

In the distance, Shao Wenmin shouted, his eyes filled with anxiety.

He knew that defeat was inevitable and his only hope could only be placed on Lin Chen.

"Well, there shouldn't be any Jindan monsters hiding in the dark..."

Lin Chen said secretly.

Then his figure flashed suddenly, and in an instant he crossed a distance of a hundred feet and came behind the evil fake pill cultivator.

The fake Dan Demon cultivator sensed the aura behind him, his face changed drastically, and he was about to attack back.

However, Lin Chen just punched out.

The protective essence of the body shattered...

The remaining force hit the fake Dan monk's chest, shattering his internal organs.

"Pfft~"

"you……"

The fake Dan Mo Xiu spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes widened and he gradually became silent.

After Lin Chen finished off the demon cultivator, he looked around and muttered:

"It seems that there are really no other Jindan monsters lurking in the dark..."

He had a slight movement in his mind and took away the storage bag of the fake Dan Mo Xiu.

Then he turned around and looked at the other demon cultivators.

More than two hundred people all looked towards where Lin Chen was.

They all widened their eyes with a look of disbelief.

"Sir Elder..."

They would never have imagined that there was such a terrifying existence hidden in Xinliang City.

Just one encounter and he killed their fake Dan elder...

Even Shao Wenmin on the distant city wall was shocked.

"This... then, is that person really a fake Dan cultivator?"

Shao Wenmin swallowed his saliva.

He knew that there was indeed a gap between the fake elixir and the golden elixir.

But it shouldn’t be to the point where it can’t withstand even one attack, right?

Lin Chen looked at the dazed Shao Wenmin and the fleeing demon cultivators, and said in a voice transmission:

"What are you still doing?"

Shao Wenmin reacted instantly and shouted:
"Everyone in the Righteous Alliance, listen to my command! Kill the evil cultivators in the city..."

After hearing this, the more than one hundred cultivators of the Righteous Alliance became excited and madly threw spells at the evil cultivators under the city wall.

Some monks were very excited and kept shouting:

"My fellow Taoists, today is the day to defeat the demons and defend the Dao!"

"We also have a Jindan senior in Xinliang City! Hurry up and seize the opportunity to earn contributions!"

On the other hand, the cultivators of the Demonic Path, seeing the elder of the Fake Dan Realm died in battle, lost all desire to fight and wanted to flee out of the city.

In fact, even if the fake Dan realm elder died in battle.

The cultivators of the Righteous Alliance would not be a match for these evil cultivators.

But it was because Lin Chen's attack just now was too terrifying that these two hundred or so demon cultivators were frightened out of their wits.

They were all afraid of dying at Lin Chen's hands, so they had to flee madly.

"I really misjudged them. This group of demon cultivators is no better than a mob..."

Lin Chen shook his head and raised his hand to summon eighteen flying swords.

The spiritual consciousness covered an area of ​​thousands of miles like a tide.

With just a thought in his mind, the eighteen flying swords easily pierced through the protective true energy and took away the lives of the eighteen foundation-building demon cultivators.

In the world of cultivating immortals, realm is everything.

To Jindan cultivators, the threat posed by Qi-refining or even ordinary foundation-building cultivators, even if they are more numerous, is very limited as long as they do not form a battle formation.

It is no exaggeration to say that before Lin Chen's true energy is exhausted, these demon cultivators cannot cause him even the slightest harm.

In an instant, eighteen foundation-building demon cultivators died, which further stimulated the fear of the remaining demon cultivators.

At this moment, they all fled in all directions.

But no matter how fast they ran, they couldn't kill them as fast as Lin Chen.

A moment later, more than three hundred corpses of demon cultivators fell inside and outside the Xinliang city gate.

None of the demon cultivators who came to invade this time survived...

There were more than 300 demon cultivators, and Lin Chen alone killed more than half of them...

After killing the demon cultivator, Lin Chen lightly jumped back onto the city wall.

Beside him, Shao Wenmin was very excited, "Senior..."

Lin Chen waved his hand and said:
"No need to be polite. Just check the battlefield and give me the promised reward... I will leave Xinliang City in an hour."

After hearing this, Shao Wenmin quickly calmed down, but couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

After seeing Lin Chen's strength, he had only one thought in his mind.

If Lin Chen is guarding this city, what would the demon cultivators have to fear from attacking the city?
But he knew that Lin Chen had no intention of staying, so he could only say helplessly:
"Don't worry, senior. I will pay you a reward of at least one spirit stone..."

"I hope that after you have dealt with your trivial matters, you can come to Xinliang City again..."

……

An hour later, Shao Wenmin promptly paid the reward that he had promised to Lin Chen in advance.

A bag of spirit stones and more than a hundred storage bags of magic cultivators.

After Lin Chen's spiritual sense swept across the bag of spirit stones, he was slightly surprised.

The previous promise was 50,000 spirit stones, but there were at least 80,000 spirit stones in this bag.

Shao Wenmin said:

"The senior's actions this time have minimized the losses of Xinliang City..."

"If it weren't for you, Senior, I'm afraid all the mortal cultivators in the city would have been slaughtered long ago. Fifty thousand spirit stones are not enough to express our gratitude..."

After hearing this, Lin Chen nodded and thought to himself, "This kid is quite sensible." Even for Lin Chen, fifty thousand spirit stones were not a small amount.

It would be enough for him to practice for several months...

After Lin Chen said a few more words, he summoned the blue jade gourd, flew away from Xinliang City.

Shao Wenmin looked at Lin Chen's receding back in silence.

……

After leaving Xinliang City, Lin Chen headed south.

The Zi Yan Kingdom is located thousands of miles north of Changchun Gate.

Although the journey is long, with Lin Chen's speed, he can arrive there in one day at most.

Lin Chen climbed over mountains and crossed rivers, relying on his strong true energy and magical power without resting.

Along the way, we saw many mortal cities that had experienced war.

Obviously, the wars caused by the Demon Sect in recent years cannot be underestimated.

It was not until a day and a night later that Lin Chen saw the familiar city, Yudai City.

After circling over Yudai City, Lin Chen sighed.

"The mortal city that once had a population of one million has become so desolate after experiencing that disaster that only tens of thousands of people, young and old, remain..."

After that battle, there were still tens of thousands of mortals alive.

But the massacre was so difficult that most of these mortals would move away even if they survived.

I think it will be difficult for Yudai City to regain its former prosperity in the next few decades.

"With a single thought from a Jindan cultivator, millions of mortals were transformed into dead souls, and hundreds of thousands of mortals were displaced..."

Lin Chen felt quite touched.

Although power is valuable, it is even more valuable when used in moderation...

Lin Chen did not stay in Yudai City for too long, he just took a look at Tianmufang.

Fortunately, the location of Tianmufang was not affected by that battle.

Most of the girls in the shop survived, but now Yudai City is no longer as prosperous as it used to be, and the business of this romantic place is not as good as before.

"Why don't you see Miss Nan Lingling?"

Lin Chen was dozens of feet high in the air, his spiritual sense swept over Tianmufang below, and he felt a little confused.

However, Lin Chen had no time to ask, as his purpose this time was to return to Changchun Gate.

Stepping on the blue jade gourd, head south.

After flying for more than two thousand miles, Lin Chen returned to his original appearance.

After practicing the Wood Hidden Art and adjusting his cultivation to the perfect foundation, Lin Chen set out to continue heading towards Changchun Mountain.

……

Changchun Mountain Market.

Lin Chen walked in this familiar market town, watching the occasional cultivators passing by on the street, feeling quite emotional.

In just two years, Changchun Mountain Market has undergone considerable changes.

The layout of the shops in the market town has not changed much, but there are fewer monks.

In the past, there were nearly ten thousand cultivators gathered in the market town, but now the number is probably less than five thousand.

Walking to the front of Lin’s pavilion, Lin Chen pushed the door open and walked in.

The store hasn't changed much compared to two years ago, and there's not even much dust.

It can be seen that during the time when Lin Chen was away, someone often came to clean.

"Is it... that kid Huang Xin?"

Lin Chen's heart moved slightly and he went to the medicine garden.

Entering the medicine garden, Lin Chen saw dozens of figures busy at work from afar.

Lin Chen did not hide his aura. When he got closer, Huang Xin suddenly turned around and looked at him blankly.

"Lin... Senior Brother Lin?"

Huang Xin widened his eyes, rubbed them in disbelief, and then his eyes suddenly turned red.

He put down the work in his hands and ran towards Lin Chen in a hurry.

"Lin, Senior Brother Lin! You are finally back..."

Huang Xin's voice sounded a little choked, as if he was about to cry.

Lin Chen looked at Huang Xin twice, nodded slightly and said:
"Not bad, it's only been two years since we last met...you've already reached the sixth level of Qi Refining?"

After confirming that it was really Lin Chen, Huang Xin could no longer hold back and cried as he said:

"Brother Lin, I'm sorry...Huang Xin didn't do the job you asked him to do..."

"Well, those more than one hundred disciples are gone...only these few dozen brothers are left."

"They... they all thought that Senior Brother was dead! Only Huang Xin didn't believe it... How could a person like Senior Brother Lin die?"

At this moment, Huang Xin seemed to have a lot to say, but he was crying and anxious, like a child...

Lin Chen said calmly:
"Don't be anxious, speak slowly."

Huang Xin nodded and told him everything about Lin Xiaoxuan's situation over the past two and a half years.

Two and a half years is neither long nor short.

But it's enough to change a lot of things...

In the great battle between good and evil, many foundation-building monks died.

The more than one hundred people under Lin Chen all require spirit stones as their salary, and they all work in the medicine garden because of Lin Chen's reputation as a foundation-building cultivator.

The first year after Lin Chen left was fine. The spirit stones he left behind were barely enough to pay the monks' salaries.

But Lin Chen has not come back yet. How can Huang Xin, a mere cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining, keep the situation under control?

In desperation, he began to use the salary that Lin Chen had previously awarded him to pay out wages, and occasionally sold a few spiritual herbs.

This is how we barely maintain the operation of the medicine garden.

But even so, the monks working in the medicine garden left one after another, leaving only thirty or forty people.

These people only stayed reluctantly after Huang Xin begged them earnestly.

During this period, many people advised Huang Xin to sell the medicine garden and the shop and run away, so that he could also earn a lot of spirit stones.

But Huang Xin didn't listen. He always believed that Lin Chen would come back.

"But, as long as Senior Brother Lin comes back, everything will be fine!"

Huang Xin wiped his tearful eyes and said with great certainty.

He handed over a storage bag, which contained the elixirs they had been ripening for more than two years.

There are about 10,000 spiritual herbs, worth thousands of spiritual stones...

Huang Xin did not keep such a huge fortune to himself.

Looking at the storage bag in his hand, Lin Chen was silent for a moment and said, "You've worked hard!"

Looking up at the dozens of people in the medicine garden, they were all surprised or happy when they saw Lin Chen.

Perhaps they didn't expect Lin Chen to come back.

Lin Chen flicked his finger, and thousands of spirit stones fell into the hands of each medicine boy.

"You work for me, Lin Chen, and I won't treat you unfairly."

"One hundred spirit stones each, as a reward for you."

Lin Chen's tone remained calm.

But the dozens of people behind him were immediately surprised, and looking at the handful of spirit stones in their hands, they almost thought they were dreaming.

One hundred spirit stones, for these medicine boys, is more than their salary in the past two years!
"Thank you, Boss Lin, for the reward!" said the hundreds of medicine boys.

Lin Chen nodded and called Huang Xin to the outside of the medicine garden.

"You've done a great job in the past two years." Lin Chen affirmed.

Huang Xin shook his head and said, "Most of the people that Senior Brother left behind have left. I am sorry for Senior Brother..."

Lin Chen took out a storage bag from his arms and said:
"Everything here is given to you. You should practice hard and strive to enter the foundation-building stage within a few years."

"As for this medicine garden, it's time to close it. It would be better for you to focus more on cultivation..."

For Lin Chen.

The original purpose of opening Lin's Pavilion and Medicine Garden was to conceal the whereabouts of the people and bring the supplies from the immortal world back to Blue Star.

At the same time, we will continue to provide Blue Star with more resources and medicinal materials...

Indeed, when it first opened, the medicine garden and Lin’s Xiaoxuan brought a lot of resources to Blue Star.

Promoted the development of immortal cultivation on Blue Star.

But these days are different.

It is no exaggeration to say that what Lin Xiaoxuan has harvested after several years of hard work is not even as much as Blue Star's output of medicinal materials in one day.

On tens of thousands of acres of mountains, several departments including alchemy, equipment refining, and formation deployment are operating simultaneously.

The entire Blue Planet already has the initial ability to supply itself.

Apart from some minerals and spirit stone veins, some places on Blue Star are not much different from the world of immortal cultivation.

To put it bluntly, it’s because we lack the foundation and need time to accumulate.

But in this accumulation, the role that Lin Xiaoxuan can play is minimal.

Huang Xin was stunned after hearing Lin Chen's words.

After a long silence, he said cautiously:

"Brother, can you please not close this medicine garden? I still want to be your medicine boy... Don't worry, Brother, Huang Xin will take care of these things next!"

For Huang Xin, this medicine garden and Lin's Pavilion were a ray of light that Lin Chen gave him when his life was at its lowest point.

It means so much and he put so much emotion into it.

After listening to this, Lin Chen thought about it and nodded:
"Well, I'll leave it to you. But you still have to focus on your own cultivation..."

"Don't let anyone else know what's in that storage bag."

Lin Chen gave an order and then left the medicine garden.

After Lin Chen left, Huang Xin probed his spiritual sense into the storage bag, and then he was stunned.

There was a large pile of spirit stones in the storage bag, more than three thousand pieces, enough for him to cultivate to the foundation-building stage.

There are even dozens of bottles of various elixirs, some magical instruments... and a very crucial, perfect foundation-building pill!
With this foundation-building pill, even someone with mixed spiritual roots like Huang Xin can build a perfect foundation!

Lin Chen left the market town and flew towards Changchun Mountain.

Soon, Danfeng Peak came into sight.

But at this moment, there was no one on Danfeng Mountain.

After Lin Chen looked around, he was stunned when he saw the bulging grave mound next to the medicine garden.
