Xiuxian, I have a high martial arts world

Chapter 163 Wanxun died in battle and the devil is rampant!
Elder Wan died in battle?
Which Elder Wan...

Lin Chen's heart skipped a beat.

After the death of the elder named Wan, the sect rang the bell four times, indicating that his status was higher than that of the peak master.

Who else could it be?

"Wanxun... is dead?"

Lin Chen was shocked and couldn't believe it.

He and Wanxun had quite a bit of contact, having gone through hardships together and fought against the robbery.

As Xu Shi, he also formed a deep friendship with Wan Xun.

Not long ago, when Lin Chen and Li Zhenqian celebrated their Dan formation, they received congratulations and gifts from Wan Xun.

At that time, Wan Xun was already a third-level golden elixir, and coupled with his eighth-level golden elixir talent...

Even an ordinary person in the middle stage of Jindan cannot compare to him.

But just like that, the one who was expected to reach the Nascent Soul stage, the future pillar of Changchun Sect, and the one who was regarded as the successor to the Sect Master... died? !

Lin Chen took a deep breath and stood together with the disciples.

In front of so many disciples, Wang Changchun managed to remain calm.

But the slightly trembling hands behind him said it all.

"Master, is this true?"

"Senior Brother Wan is really dead..."

"No, this is impossible! How could Elder Wan die?"

At this moment, the sect disciples' square was in chaos.

Hundreds of disciples and even elders did not believe the fact that Wanxun was dead.

Wanxun has been a member of Changchun Sect for a long time and is also the senior brother of Jianfeng.

Treat the brothers and sisters very kindly...

But such a nearly perfect monk actually died...

I heard the shouts of the disciples around me.

Lin Chen also fell silent.

He thought of the time when Wanxun gave part of the spoils to the family of his deceased junior brother during the battle to wipe out the robbers.

I also thought of it in the ruins of Jin Yuanzong.

Wanxun puts himself in danger to save Li Zhenqian.

"If Junior Brother Li knew this, he would probably be very sad..."

Lin Chen felt a little sad, but suddenly met a gaze.

It’s Li Zhenqian.

At this moment, he stood not far from Lin Chen with red eyes and a lost look...

"This, this is not true!"

Li Zhenqian suddenly roared.

After hearing this, Wang Changchun frowned.

He shouted:
"quiet!"

"Wanxun's death...is a fact!"

"But, this is a war, a war between good and evil!"

"War is a war without casualties. Not to mention Jindan cultivators... even Yuanying Zhenren may not be able to stay out of it!"

Wang Changchun spoke in a firm tone, maintaining the dignity of a clan leader.

He is Wanxun's master, who has carefully trained Wanxun for decades and even regards him as his successor...

After learning of Wanxun's death, perhaps the saddest person present was him, his master.

But he is also the leader of a sect and needs to maintain his dignity. He cannot collapse!

If the leader of the sect collapses, Changchun Sect will be on the verge of destruction.

"Zhen Qian..."

Wang Changchun sighed, looked at the disciples and elders and said:

"This time, the battle report came from the front line. The three major demon sects gathered more than a dozen Jindan cultivators. It was unexpected..."

"But our Righteous Alliance has not lost yet!"

"In recent years, there have been dozens of Jindan cultivators in the Righteous Alliance, but the battle line is too long. Our Changchun Sect is in Yanlai Realm, and the front line is in Ziyan Realm..."

"Therefore, I decided to fully withdraw the front-line deployment and compress the battle line."

"Together with the Tiandan Sect, we will use the border of the Mist Country as the front line to temporarily resist the magic path in order to counterattack in the future..."

After a pause, Wang Changchun continued:
"Besides, because Elder Wan is determined to fight to the death."

"Under the pressure of the demon army, we bought time for the disciples and other elders on the front line, thus saving a considerable number of cultivators..."

Wang Changchun said a few words to boost the morale of the monks in the Disciple Square.

After hearing this, many disciples regained their confidence.

"That's right! The reason for the failure on the front line is that the battle line is too long..."

"We still have dozens of Jindan cultivators, we will definitely be able to defeat the demonic path in one fell swoop!"

Thousands of disciples were discussing in the square, and finally their voice merged into one.

"Counterattack the evil ways and spread the prestige of our Changchun Sect!"

"Counterattack the evil ways and promote the prestige of our righteous alliance..."

Looking at the disciples who had rekindled their fighting spirit, Wang Changchun nodded.

Then he cleared his throat and said:

"Ahem, next... all elders and peak masters above the Fake Dan stage. Come to my hall..."

"As for all the disciples, prepare well for the battle next."

"All the materials in the treasury of our Changchun Sect can be exchanged for contribution points at a 20% discount."

After hearing this, all the disciples' eyes suddenly lit up.

The supplies in the treasury can be exchanged at a 20% discount, which can save a lot of money.

Lin Chen stood in the square and nodded slightly.

Although the situation on the front line was not optimistic, Wang Changchun still had some means to rebuild the morale of the sect.

Wang Changchun glanced at the crowd, and Lin Chen also received his message.

"Elder Lin, please come to my inner hall as well."

Soon, all the disciples in the square dispersed.

Either to exchange supplies or to prepare for the next war.

However, some disciples are timid and seem to have given up.

Lin Chen and more than twenty elders and peak masters in the False Dan stage went to the sect master's inner hall together.

At this time, Wang Changchun sat in the position of the sect leader and closed the door of the inner hall with a wave of his sleeves.

After setting up another formation, he sighed.

Looking at the twenty-odd elders, Wang Changchun could no longer conceal the sadness on his face.

"Everyone... is the core of our Changchun Sect. I will not hide the battle report from you..."

"On the front line of the Purple Mist Realm, our Changchun Sect's six Jindan-stage elders, one hundred foundation-building disciples, and thousands of Qi-refining disciples...all died in the battle!"

"At this time, the Demon Sect's army has already swept through the three front cities and is preparing to invade the three rear cities. They are also heading towards Xinliang City."

After hearing this, all the elders present changed their expressions drastically.

Lin Chen also frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Master, this...how is this possible?"

"Brother Wan came to the rear and died in battle..."

The person who spoke was Li Zhenqian.

The disappointment in his eyes was hard to conceal; the death of Senior Brother Wan in the rear guard was already a big enough blow to him.

What's more, dying in battle is meaningless...

The elders and disciples who evacuated actually died?
Thinking of this, Li Zhenqian was already very upset and felt hopeless.

Wang Changchun glanced at Li Zhenqian calmly and scolded:
"Zhen Qian, you are the pride of our Changchun Sect. After Senior Brother Wan's death... the young generation of flag bearers are only Lin Chen and you... If you are so impatient, how can the future of Changchun Sect be handed over to you?"

After hearing this, Li Zhenqian kept silent.

At this time, the leader of Zhenfeng said:
"Brother Wang, although we have lost some battles against the Demon Sect over the past few years, the losses have been within an acceptable range."

"But this time, why was there such a huge loss... and we didn't even get any intelligence at all?"

After hearing this, Lin Chen nodded slightly.

He knew the three cities on the front line.

Although the Demon Sect is stronger, it is too difficult to capture the three frontline cities in just one or two days...

What’s even more outrageous is that the sect only received the intelligence after it had completely failed on the front line.

Could it be that... those Jindan realm guards don’t even have time to pass on the message?
When Wang Changchun heard this, his face turned a little ugly. He said slowly:
"To be precise, three cities on the front line were lost... hundreds of thousands of people died in just half a day!"

"Because, that guy Xuetong took action..."

Blood eyes!
After hearing this name, the faces of all the elders present changed drastically.

Only Li Zhenqian still looked puzzled and asked:

"Blood Eye, is he very strong?"

After hearing this, Wang Changchun was too lazy to explain anything.

He just gave a look to the leader of Zhenfeng.

When Master Zhenfeng saw this, he quickly pulled him behind him and whispered:
"The Blood-Eye Demon, or you can call him the Blood-Eye Master..."

After hearing this, Li Zhenqian quickly shut up.

The two words "Zhenren" are a symbol of being a hegemon and nearly invincible in Qingzhou.

At this time, Lin Chen's master Han Jihai spoke.

He stroked his long beard and asked doubtfully:
"The old devil with blood pupils... doesn't this old fellow have much time left to live?"

"Why did he suddenly come out and personally destroy three cities?"

Wang Changchun then said:

"I received news from the Demon-Subduing Temple..."

"It is said that the blood of the old demon with blood pupils and the death of the ghost-eyed boy... that is why this old monster got angry."

After hearing this, the elders present had different reactions.

Not many people know about the death of the Ghost-Eyed Old Monster.

Apart from Lin Chen, there were only the monks from the Demon-Subduing Temple.

I think the Exorcist Sect must have suppressed the news. "The Ghost Eye Old Monster is dead? This is a good time for us to counterattack the Demon Sect!" An elder was eager to try.

"No wonder, I haven't heard any news about this old weirdo in the past two months..."

The Ghost-Eyed Old Monster alone is capable of defeating ten Jindan monks on the front line.

Now, this ghost-eyed old monster is dead, and although three cities on the front line have been destroyed, it seems acceptable?

After hearing this, some elders nodded in agreement.

Some elders also wondered:

"Ghost Eye Old Monster... This guy is almost invincible below the Nascent Soul stage..."

"Who killed him? Could it be that other forces in Qingzhou sent a Nascent Soul cultivator to do it?"

Wang Changchun shook his head and said:
"When the three cities on the front line were destroyed, the old demon with blood pupils had already spread the news, offering a reward of three million spirit stones... for Xu Shi's life!"

"That's right, this was done by Fellow Daoist Xu from the Fengling Yueying Sect."

After hearing this, several peak masters around who had seen "Xu Shi" all showed surprise on their faces.

He felt even more in awe of the Fengling Yueying Sect.

They all knew that Xu had entered the ruins of Jin Yuanzong more than ten years ago.

It's only been a few years, so he's probably only in the middle stage of the Golden Core at most, right?

Can you kill the ghost-eyed monster?
Looking at the elders around him with different expressions, Lin Chen touched his nose guiltily.

After Wang Changchun told the true situation on the front line, he said:

"Although Guimu died in the battle, we are still at a disadvantage against the Demon Sect..."

"Especially, the old demon Xuetong has taken action personally. I'm afraid that within a year, the entire Purple Mist Realm will fall..."

"Therefore, it is helpless to ask the disciples to withdraw from Ziyan Country. We must join forces with Tiandan Sect and defend the Mist Country!"

After hearing this, the elders around nodded.

Wang Changchun then said:

"Therefore, all the elders may be sent to the front line in the Mist Country to prevent the Demon Sect from continuing to invade..."

"This may be a little dangerous. What do you elders think?"

As he spoke, Wang Changchun looked around.

"What are you talking about, Sect Master? We are disciples of Changchun Sect. It is our duty to protect the sect!"

Some elders care about the sect and are willing to die for it.

But some elders avoided looking around and did not have much sense of belonging to the sect.

Wang Changchun saw all this and said:

"My fellow elders, I believe everyone knows what kind of personality that old demon with blood pupils has."

"If the Righteous Alliance is defeated, I'm afraid there will be no peace within tens of thousands of miles. By then, you will find it difficult to protect yourselves."

"Besides, his Demon Sect has a Nascent Soul Master, so my Righteous Alliance may also have one."

As he spoke, Wang Changchun revealed a meaningful expression.

The other elders were stunned and had a guess in their minds.

At this time, Wang Changchun said:
"Alright, elders, please make preparations for the battle on the front line..."

"The masters of Danfeng and Zhenfeng will stay here. The other elders and masters can go out first..."

After hearing this, the elders prepared to leave, and Lin Chen also prepared to leave with them.

At this time, Han Jihai pulled him and signaled Lin Chen not to leave.

When only Lin Chen, Han Jihai and the master of Zhenfeng were left in the inner hall.

Wang Changchun sighed and said:
"There are no outsiders here. Junior Brother Han and Junior Brother Wang, you are both veterans who have been in the sect for hundreds of years. I trust you..."

"And Lin Chen, you are the most talented disciple of my Changchun Sect in the past thousand years. The future is in your hands."

"So I'm going to speak frankly."

After hearing this, Lin Chen secretly complained in his heart.

"My goodness, one thing has to be divided into three parts. Are you pulling in three small groups?"

After a pause, Wang Changchun said:

"I can't contact the Grandmaster..."

After hearing this, the leader of Zhenfeng was stunned and said:

"Grandmaster...hasn't he been in seclusion in the back mountains? Could it be that he has gone out to travel the world?"

"We are not unaware of our great master's unrestrained personality..."

Wang Changchun shook his head and said solemnly:
"No, this time is different."

"The founder of the Spirit Beast Sect met his end several years ago... otherwise the Spirit Beast Sect wouldn't have been destroyed so easily!"

"And the founder of the Tiandan Sect, just like the founder of Changchun... we can't contact each other."

"I doubt……"

Having said this, Wang Changchun fell silent.

The Lingshou Sect, Tiandan Sect and Changchun Sect are closely connected.

It is because the three of them are from the same school and have a deep relationship.

They came to the Eastern Region together eight hundred years ago and founded three major sects.

But if you count the years, even if you have natural resources and treasures to prolong your life.

It is also very likely that the time has come for the Nascent Soul cultivators to die...

After hearing this, Han Jihai was stunned.

He just muttered:

"Then what's the point of fighting? The ancestors are gone... Let's divide the property and run away..."

After hearing this, Sect Leader Wang Changchun glared at him.

“Haha, after all these years… Junior Brother Han still loves to joke!” The head of Zhen Peak hurriedly consoled him.

"So, Brother...what should we do next?"

The leader of Zhenfeng asked.

"Alas, at the moment... we can only take it one step at a time."

"If the Demon Sect continues to advance, we will have no choice but to abandon the Purple Mist Realm."

"But... the old demon with blood pupils has lived too long and is too old..."

"I think he shouldn't be able to take action easily now, right?"

Everyone nodded after hearing this.

Nascent Soul cultivators are certainly scary, but aging Nascent Soul cultivators are even scarier.

However, if it is an old Nascent Soul cultivator who still wants to live longer, it is not so scary...

Because every attack could greatly reduce his lifespan.

"Anyway, I will discuss this with the leader of the Tiandan Sect as soon as possible. The frontline deployment..."

"But this time, I have no choice but to go to the front line!"

Wang Changchun said this with some sadness in his eyes.

……

Lin Chen returned to the Lin family pavilion and calmed down to think carefully.

"The old demon with blood pupils took action personally, Wanxun died in battle, and the army is approaching... and at the same time, a bounty is offered for me..."

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes. This was definitely not good news for him.

"This is three million spirit stones. Even a Jindan cultivator would be jealous and fight for it!"

"It seems that Xu Shi's vest will have to remain hidden for a while... We can only send out a martial arts puppet to test it out."

Lin Chen thought silently.

Fortunately, he still had millions of spirit stones in his hands, enough for his practice in the next few years.

But not showing up is not a solution either, especially at the Guangyuan Auction.

Not to mention the stable income of 200,000 spirit stones per month, there is still three months of auction money that has not been collected.

"Let's wait and see for a while, and then send out the martial arts puppets to find out the situation..."

Lin Chen made a quick decision in his mind.

……

In the following month, the situation in the eastern region of Qingzhou changed dramatically.

The Righteous Alliance completely withdrew from the territory of Zi Yan Country and headed north to the Country of Mist, which was only 6,000 miles away.

At the same time, Changchun Sect and Tiandan Sect worked together to promote the migration of the Zhengdao League’s stronghold.

The battle line was shortened from ten thousand miles to six thousand miles. The entire Purple Mist Territory, with a territory of nearly four thousand miles, and hundreds of millions of mortals... were all abandoned by the Righteous Alliance.

The fate that awaits those mortals is self-evident.

But the shortened battle line also allows the Righteous Alliance to better concentrate its forces.

The Changchun Sect and the Tiandan Sect alone sent out twenty Jindan cultivators.

In addition to other forces of all sizes within the Righteous Alliance, the four major immortal cultivation families and the Yanlai Realm royal family each sent a Jindan cultivator to the front line.

The people who were most troubled by this matter were the patriarchs of the four great immortal cultivation families.

Originally, they were just foundation-building cultivators and did not need to go to the front lines themselves.

But now, the four heads of the Xiao, Li, Cai and Meng families are all Jindan and must go to the front line to fight the enemy.

Except for Li Dongkun, Li Zhenqian, as a disciple of the Li family, went to the front line in person.

In comparison, Danfeng’s situation is not good either.

That day, Han Jihai called several disciples to Danfeng.

Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Han Jihai spoke his true feelings.

"Alas, even the Yuanying old monster has come out... Well, how about we run away?"

"It doesn't matter if we don't stay at Changchun Sect. Let's go to the territory of the Dao Sect. I think the Demon Sect won't dare to pursue us..."

After hearing this, Zhou Tieshan looked confused.

He had just broken through to the foundation-building stage some time ago and was planning to go to the front lines to test his skills...

"Master, are we really going to run away?" Zhou Tieshan widened his eyes with a look of surprise.

"You're not going to run? Are you going to wait to be buried with the Righteous Alliance?"

Han Jihai said earnestly:

"The ancestors have all run away... Is there any reason for us not to run away?"
