Chapter 196 Flooding the Ice Customs
The next day, Zhou Yuan was sleeping when the door of his room was suddenly pushed open and a general shouted outside, "Marshal Zhou, something bad has happened."
Yang Cailing, who was on the bed, quickly covered herself with the quilt. On the other side, Yang Xue angrily said, "Chen Qi, stop right there. If you dare to push the door in, I will dig out your eyes today!"
Fortunately, Chen Qi did not rush directly into the bedroom. He stood in the living room and shouted, "Sister-in-law, calm down. I'm in the hall. It's a military emergency. Please forgive me."
These soldiers from the Ice Customs are too familiar with Zhou Yuan. Yang Cailing and Yang Xue even grew up with many of them, so they dared to do so.
Zhou Yuan got out of bed, put on his clothes, pushed open the door of the dormitory and went out, kicking Chen Qi and starting to curse.
Chen Qi said quickly, "Marshal Zhou, Marshal Yang asked me to call you. Most of the cultivators from Xiuxin Pavilion rushed to the enemy camp early in the morning to fight. We couldn't stop them no matter how hard we tried. These people didn't even look at us. Go and take a look."
"I didn't issue any military orders, how could they go into battle without permission!" Zhou Yuan was so angry that he rushed outside without even bothering to put on his armor.
Yang Xue came out wearing a coat, holding a sword in her hand. Chen Qi hurriedly called out, "Sister-in-law, I have military duties to attend to. I am leaving now."
Yang Xue snorted. Actually, she was just trying to scare him. She quickly dressed and shouted, "Sister, I'll go take a look too."
"Xue'er, be careful. Don't get involved in the fight between innate cultivators." Yang Cailing walked out and shouted worriedly, but she only heard Yang Xue's response from outside, as she had already run far away.
Zhou Yuan used Qinggong to jump onto the city wall and saw a mysterious light shining in the distance. Countless magic weapons were flying in the air, trees and mountains were shattered and collapsed, and the ice and snow were evaporated. Because the distance was too far, he could not see the human figures clearly.
Zhou Yuan sighed helplessly, and seeing Marshal Yang and Master Cangming on the city wall, he flew over and landed inside the fence.
Cang Ming smiled and said, "How is it?"
"If you really don't stop us, Xiuxin Pavilion will suffer at least 70% losses in this battle," Zhou Yuan said.
“The cultivators of the Xiuxin Pavilion all came here to obtain the Mysterious Light of Merit. They have no regard for military discipline and know that merit is merit, but they still fight desperately for it.
It's a good opportunity to send these people to the Conferred God Platform. As long as they are willing to obey orders, the benefits can't be taken for free, right?" Cangming said with a smile.
Yang Yuelin glanced at Cangming, and then said, "Has Pavilion Master Cangming considered Empress Jiuxuan?"
"Don't worry, Marshal Yang. I will naturally take it into consideration. I have issued a military order in front of the emperor for this battle. If a soldier in Binghai Customs dies due to improper command, I am willing to wait for Marshal Yang's disposal." Cangming said confidently.
"With Pavilion Master Cangming's words, I feel relieved. I can then broaden my horizons with peace of mind." Yang Yuelin smiled, stroking his beard.
"Marshal Zhou, please prepare a banquet to entertain the monks who have returned victoriously." Cangming said with a smile.
"Ninth brother is right, you are an old fox." Zhou Yuan shook his head and asked a general to go down and prepare.
Instead, Master Cang Ming laughed and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."
The corner of Yang Yuelin's mouth twitched. Are all the ninth-level innate cultivators so shameless? How come they are completely different from the sixth-level cultivators he had met before?
Just as Cangming said, hundreds of cultivators from Xiuxin Pavilion all rushed forward, and the army of the Ice and Snow Empire was completely defeated. Only Taoist Xueyue escaped, while the others were all killed.
The cultivators from Xiuxin Pavilion returned with joy on their faces. Cangming stood in the square to greet them and laughed, "Congratulations to you all for taking the first place. I have prepared a banquet to celebrate for you all."
"Thank you, Pavilion Master." This group of ninth-level innate cultivators laughed loudly, congratulated each other, and led their disciples into the hall.
Zhou Yuan and Yang Yuelin were already waiting here. When they saw the monks coming back, they both clasped their fists and congratulated them. Zhou Yuan shouted, "Bring some wine to all the monks and masters to celebrate our success."
Soon all the food and drinks were served, music started, and everyone started talking about the battle.
Xueyue Zhenren returned to the Xuanshui Pond of Jiuxuan Mountain with injuries, and said with a face full of grief and anger: "Master, I am incompetent and failed to protect my disciples. The cultivators in Xiuxin Pavilion are too unethical. Hundreds of cultivators attacked at the same time. If it weren't for the magic weapon that Master left for me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to come back."
The Nine Mysterious Goddess sat on the lotus, closed her eyes and said nothing. After a while, she sighed and said, "This is fate, but we can't let the cultivators like Qianyuan get too rampant. Xuanhe, go and get my Glacier Divine Pearl, Sky Water Pure Bottle, and Wind Control Flag."
"Yes." A boy next to him turned around and turned into a black crane and flew away. In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the black crane held three treasures in its mouth and dropped them into Xueyue's hand.
“Your eldest sister and second sister will come out of seclusion in two days. You will work with them to set up this glacier formation outside the Ice Customs Seclusion.” Empress Jiuxuan said and closed her eyes again.
"I will obey the order." Taoist Xueyue left with the three treasures.
Three days later, outside Binghai Pass, three women in white Taoist robes were floating in the sky outside the pass. Although they were wearing Taoist robes, it could not hide their beauty.
Moreover, the three of them have similar temperaments, giving people a cold and keep-away feeling.
Taoist Xueyue glared at the people below and shouted, "Xiuxin Pavilion, today I want all of you to be frozen in ice to comfort the souls of my deceased fellow disciples in heaven."
Hearing this, the monks of Binghaiguan were delighted and jumped onto the tower. Seeing that it was the three disciples of Jiuxuan Niangniang, Xuanshui, Tianhe, and Xueyue, the younger ones wanted to go up, but were stopped by their elders.
Of course they knew how powerful these three people were. If one person met any of them alone, few present would dare to say they could win. However, now there was a large group of cultivators with cultivation above the seventh level of innateness, so they were naturally not afraid.
In order to gain merit, and with so many people in tow, all the cultivators above the seventh level of the innate realm flew into the air and released their most valuable treasures.
All of a sudden, all kinds of spiritual treasures fell like an overwhelming force and turned into all kinds of mysterious lights.
"Hmph, you don't know how to live or die. Junior sister, take action." Taoist Xuanshui snorted coldly and said.
Taoist Tianhe raised the Tianshui Jingping and uttered a spell. Clear spring water rushed out of the bottle and instantly turned into a huge river rushing down.
The mysterious light of those people was blocked by the river, and the flying swords and other direct attacks were sucked into the Milky Way, like a mud cow entering the sea, and lost their sensitivity in an instant.
The senior cultivators of Xiuxin Pavilion were all shocked, and those whose flying swords were taken away all looked distressed.
Seeing that the Tianhe River was about to roll in, these people quickly released their protective magic weapons to block the impact of the wave.
At this time, Taoist Xuanshui spread out his hands, and the Ice River Divine Pearl flew out, turning into white light and rushing into the Tianhe River.
The sky was filled with cold air, and the repairmen who were bearing the impact of the river were frozen along with their magic weapons before they could react. They fell into the river and disappeared.
In just a breath of time, half of the flying repairmen were swallowed up, and the others hurriedly flew back to the Ice Customs.
Taoist Xueyue swung the wind-controlling flag in his hand, and a strong wind blew up, combining with the glacier to form a glacial waterspout.
Daxiu, who had just flown away, was sucked into the whirlwind. He couldn't escape even with spells like wind escape. It was even more difficult for him to fly out by flying with a sword or walking on the clouds.
Now these people felt afraid, but the glacier formation came with great force and showed no intention of holding back. With the combination of the whirlwind and the glacier, all the monks in the sky were frozen and fell into the river.
At this time, the glacier rushed down and rushed towards the Ice Customs. The glacier and the whirlwind penetrated everywhere, and hiding in the room was useless. If they fell, the whole army would be wiped out.
The people watching below were all horrified, panicked and at a loss as to what to do.
Master Cangming immediately shouted, "Get up."
I saw four Taoists standing on the four sides of Binghai Pass, inserting a small flag on it. Cangming flew to the platform in the middle, raised a small green flag and pointed to the sky.
Five small flags emitted green light at the same time, forming a green light shield to protect the Ice Customs.
The rushing glacier hit the light curtain, splashing water, like a tsunami hitting the mountain wall.
Taoist Xueyue was surprised to see that there was a magic weapon that could withstand the Ice River Formation. He asked, "Master Sister, what kind of treasure is this?"
"It should be the Five-sided Xuanshui Flag of Yulan Fairy Island. It is a defensive fairy treasure. I didn't expect that it can even block our Jiuxuan Mountain Glacier Array. It is really powerful." Taoist Xuanshui frowned.
"Let's flood the Binghai Pass and see how long it can hold out." Taoist Tianhe snorted and controlled the Ice River Formation to engulf the Binghai Pass.
“Well, no matter how powerful the magic weapon is, it will be useless once your inner energy is used up.” Xueyue hated Binghaiguan the most, and controlled the icy water to swirl away.
At this moment, Binghai Pass seemed to have sunk to the bottom of the sea, protected by the Five-sided Mysterious Water Flags.
