"Elder Lu!" Along with the greetings from the foundation-building monks, Elder Lu, whom Li Yuanba had met when he entered the sect, flew down.

"This time you are most likely facing the Buddha from Qianye Temple. The Buddha is good at disturbing the mind, and the Buddhist skills have a certain restraining effect on the sect's magic skills, but their fighting experience is far less than yours, so you must play to your own advantages.

The sect will double the rewards for this time. If you find any Arhats or other righteous cultivators, report them immediately! "Elder Lu said solemnly as he looked at the more than 200 foundation-building cultivators.

Buddha is equivalent to the Taoist foundation-building monk.

Upon hearing that the reward had been doubled, all the demon cultivators present were extremely excited, and they wished they could reach the battlefield immediately.

There are resources that the demon cultivators want. Even the Buddha's physical body is a top-grade material.

"The true disciples will board the boat first, and the rest of the disciples will follow!" After Elder Lu waited for the demon cultivators to calm down, he summoned a large flying boat.

Twelve demon cultivators came out and jumped towards the large flying boat. Li Yuanba also followed the twelve true cultivators into the large flying boat.

When the twelve true disciples saw Li Yuanba, some nodded to show their goodwill, some looked indifferent, and some had scrutiny in their eyes. Li Yuanba ignored these looks. These were demon cultivators, and who knew what they were planning.

The thirteen true disciples have separate rooms in the flying boat, which is the sect's special treatment for the true disciples.

Although a separate room is nothing, this special treatment is a symbol of status, which makes the other inner and outer sect foundation-building monks who are in the hall very envious.

After all the foundation-building monks boarded the flying boat, Elder Lu drove the large flying boat straight into the sky.

"Is senior brother here?" Li Yuanba was comprehending the sword intent when a voice came from outside the door.

He was slightly stunned. He didn't know any of the more than 200 foundation-building cultivators. The only one he had met was Elder Lu.

Since he is called Senior Brother, it cannot be Elder Lu.

The status of a true disciple is higher than that of an inner disciple, and the status of an inner disciple is higher than that of an outer disciple. Therefore, among cultivators of the same generation, an inner disciple has to call a true disciple "senior brother", and an outer disciple has to call an inner disciple "senior brother".

This has nothing to do with how early or late one enters the sect, nor does it have anything to do with one's cultivation level, but is rather a result of one's status within the sect.

Li Yuanba opened the door and saw a monk with a white face and a small mustache.

"Brother, I am Wang Chengjun from the inner sect. I have the strength to reach the middle stage of foundation building. I would like to join your team to fight the enemy together!" Wang Chengjun saluted respectfully and expressed his thoughts.

"I don't have a team and I don't want to form one. You should find someone else!" Li Yuanba refused without any hesitation.

"Brother, although you are a true disciple, the bald monks in Qianye Temple are very powerful. It is safer to form a team!" Wang Chengjun did not give up and continued.

"No need, don't disturb me!" This time, Li Yuanba closed the door directly and blocked Wang Chengjun outside.

The respect on Wang Chengjun's face disappeared in an instant, replaced by a sinister look in his eyes, and disappointment that his conspiracy had not succeeded.

He looked around and went to communicate with other monks.

Soon after, another cultivator came, also wanting to join Li Yuanba's team. After several rejections, no more cultivators came.

Li Yuanba shook his head. He didn't want to deal with these evil cultivators. He had seen the evil cultivators from the Xuanming Sect on Tianhai Island. The evil cultivators were notoriously vicious and cunning.

That was on Tianhai Island. The seven sects had relatively close relations and no high-level conflicts. Under that situation, the demon cultivators were greatly restricted.

The cultivators of Senluo Sect are real demon cultivators. If they were inside the sect, they would still have some concerns, but once they leave the sect, they will need to consider the threat posed by these demon cultivators.

It’s funny to think about it. In addition to dealing with external enemies, Li Yuanba also has to consider that the evil cultivators from the same sect might take the opportunity to attack him.

The true disciple is very powerful, but since he has never seen such a true disciple before, it means that he is a new true disciple.

A new true disciple who is just in the initial stage of foundation building, the wealth of a true disciple is definitely rich. In the absence of strong strength, this is a huge threat to a demon cultivator.

Just like when facing Wang Chengjun, Li Yuanba sensed malice behind his apparent respect. Recently, influenced by the original body, he has made a lot of progress in perception.

Elder Jindan drove the flying boat at an extremely fast speed. In just over a day, the flying boat passed through Jieshan City and arrived at the Jieshan Checkpoint.

Li Yuanba stood on the deck and looked at the scenery below. Li Shiming had been to the main site of Jieshan City before. Two hundred miles further on was the Jieshan Checkpoint, the main passage between the Shiwanda Mountains and other areas of Northern Shu.

The real body, Li Shiming, was in the truck at the time and did not actually observe the Boundary Mountain Checkpoint.

When the large flying boat landed on a mountain peak, Li Yuanba sensed a strong fluctuation of the formation. A wave of the formation scanned all the cultivators, and his identity jade disc trembled slightly.

This is to verify the identity. If you are not a monk from the Senluo Sect, the formation will launch an attack.

"Outside is the border area. Intelligence shows that Qianye Temple has sent at least six hundred Buddhas and Arhats. Once they attack you, report to the elders immediately. There are four elders of our sect, including me, stationed here!" Elder Lu said in a deep voice after all the foundation-building cultivators got off the flying boat.

In fact, there is no need to explain further. It is probably because Li Yuanba does not have much experience in this area. After listening to Elder Lu's speech, the other cultivators have already dispersed to various parts of the checkpoint.

Li Yuanba took out his identity jade disc and called up the map of this place. There were mission pavilions, exchange pavilions, and healing pavilions set up at this level.

The function of the Mission Pavilion is to receive designated missions, such as killing a certain disciple of Chiba Temple. The rewards for such missions are calculated separately, and possible locations will also be provided.

The reason why it is a possible location is that in this kind of battle, the monks on both sides are moving very quickly and their positions cannot be accurately determined.

The bodies of killed enemies also need to be brought here before contribution points can be settled.

The Exchange Pavilion recycles spoils of war and allows contribution points to be exchanged for elixirs, spiritual weapons, skills, etc., allowing the spoils of war to be quickly converted into one's own strength.

Needless to say, the Healing Pavilion is specially set up to treat injured monks.

As long as the conflicts between the major sects do not reach the level of a major war, they will follow the long-standing rules.

The war would start with the Qi Refining cultivators and the Foundation Building cultivators, and then would escalate step by step, but the highest level would only reach the Golden Core. If it were to be upgraded one step further, that kind of battle would simply not be able to start in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

The fighting power of the Golden Core can cause serious damage to the environment, but compared to that of the Nascent Soul, it is relatively smaller.

Therefore, the battles between Nascent Souls usually take place in the thirty-third heaven, which is extremely high in the sky and is the only place that can withstand the impact of a Nascent Soul-level battle.

Since the level of immortal cultivation in the Northern Shu continent is relatively high, the conflict between the two major sects began as a battle between foundation-building cultivators.

Both major sects were very angry, but relatively restrained. Both sides did not want to fight with all their might, and used this traditional way of warfare to vent the intense fighting spirit within the sect.

Li Yuanba first went to the Mission Pavilion and found that no mission had been issued yet. It should be that the information about Qianye Temple had not been collected yet.

Outside the Boundary Mountain Checkpoint, there are two hundred miles of mountains and two hundred miles of hills. This is the border area between the Senluo Sect and the Zhengdao Sect. Each side has demarcated a distance of two hundred miles to avoid direct friction on the border between the two sides.

Now this four hundred li area is the battlefield of the war, and both sides have invested a large number of foundation-building monks here.

The more than two hundred foundation-building monks who came with Li Yuanba were just one of the groups sent by the Senluo Sect. There were already foundation-building monks at the checkpoint, some of whom had arrived in advance, and some had not yet arrived.

At this time, some anxious demon cultivators had already summoned ghosts, iron corpses, spirit insects, spirit beasts, etc., and were heading towards the battlefield, preparing to find a good location to set up.

Li Yuanba was not in a hurry. In addition to participating in the war, he was also waiting to meet the original body Li Shiming.

This is an excellent opportunity. After going deep into the battlefield, he will be out of the sect's surveillance.

On the other side, Li Shiming was rushing over. As an alchemist, Li Shiming had become the true disciple of Shushan Sect. His actions were even freer than Li Yuanba's.

Li Yuanba waited until it was slightly dark before he took off into the air. He did not use the sword intent of a sword cultivator to enhance the sword light, so his speed was not fast.

Unlike what I imagined, we were fifty miles away from the checkpoint and had not encountered any battle. It was extremely quiet all around.

But he could still sense the overly active spiritual energy in the void. This was because a cultivator had mobilized a large amount of spiritual power, triggering a reaction in the spiritual energy, which meant that a battle had taken place nearby not long ago.

He didn't quite understand why the big sects would choose this way of war. Was it to hone their disciples, or to buy time for each other, so that the top leaders of both sides could calm down and reduce the war to a controllable range?

If a war between Senluo Sect and Qianye Temple breaks out at the Jindan level right from the start, a war between dozens of Jindans, no matter which side wins, the consequence will be heavy losses for both sides, and in the end the ones who benefit will be the other sects.

Li Yuanba is still just a foundation-building cultivator. He has no chance to be exposed to the ideas of higher-ups. All he can do is fight, accumulate combat experience and improve his own strength.

When he reached the eightyth mile, he stopped and frowned slightly.

There were ghostly shadows and black fog all around him, surrounding him.

The air contains bewitching and highly toxic elements. If you are careless, even a foundation-building cultivator will be affected and his strength will be greatly reduced.

Li Yuanba did not expect that his first battle on the battlefield would not be with the Buddha of Qianye Temple, but with a monk of the same sect.

Demon cultivators are indeed demon cultivators, and their own interests are their top priority.

Although the cultivator who set up the formation could not be seen, it was impossible for such a spooky and cold formation to be created by Qianye Temple.

"Come out, Wang Chengjun!" Li Yuanba said in a deep voice.

There is sword intent, bewitching power and highly toxic powder in his body, no one can even get close to him. As for the formation, the formation arranged on the array plate is rubbish to him.

Even the ones he carried with him were formation flags. Why didn't he choose a more convenient and quicker formation plate? It was because the formation plate was too simple for a high-level formation master.

"This is my true brother. How could you trigger the trap we set?" Wang Chengjun's voice was filled with laughter and was floating around.

Obviously, even though Li Yuanba, the true disciple, was a newcomer and only at the initial stage of foundation building, Wang Chengjun still had some concerns and was prepared to use the formation to influence Li Yuanba so as to achieve the goal of resolving the battle without injury.

The most important thing is not to let Li Yuanba leave alive, as attacking the true teachings is a serious crime.

Li Yuanba's aura suddenly changed, a terrifying sword intent rose from his body, and a sword light shot out.

Then there was a scream, which came from Wang Chengjun, and the scream was filled with fear and horror.

When the sword light returned, it rotated within the formation, and all the ghost shadows and black mist disappeared.

A formation plate that was shining with spiritual light was slowly becoming dim. It was because the sword intent in the sword light broke the formation and caused the formation plate to be damaged.

Four figures appeared in Li Yuanba's field of vision without any obstruction. Among them, Wang Chengjun had a pale face and one of his arms disappeared.

At the critical moment, Wang Chengjun used the secret method of surviving with a broken arm. He turned the broken arm into his body and blocked Li Yuanba's sword. The price was an arm.

When it comes to the foundation-building stage, although an arm can be regenerated through spiritual medicine, the resources and time required to fully recover it will affect the cultivator's practice time.

Besides, the contribution points required for the elixir that can heal the arm also require the foundation-building cultivator to accumulate for several years.

What frightened Wang Chengjun the most was that Li Yuanba easily broke the formation.

If Li Yuanba left at this time, he and the other three foundation-building cultivators would be in big trouble.

"Everyone, we have no way to retreat. If we let him leave, we will die. Only by killing him can we have a chance to survive!" Wang Chengjun said loudly to encourage his three companions.

The three companions he chose were all in the middle stage of foundation building, with similar strength to him.

He also didn't dare to ask a demon cultivator who was too powerful to participate in the operation. After the operation was completed, the demon cultivator who was too powerful might kill people to silence them, and then he might be making things difficult for others.

But being too weak is not good either. After all, they are dealing with true disciples. Only when the four demon cultivators are wary of each other can they truly cooperate.

"What else is there to say? Don't hold back. He is a true disciple. If you don't go all out, you will have no chance!" Another demon cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building spoke out in support.

As he spoke, he summoned an iron corpse and held a black flag in his hand. He waved it lightly and a ghost with the aura of an early stage of foundation building appeared beside him.

Wang Chengjun waved his hand, and a group of spirit insects flew out, turning into a black mist and flying towards Li Yuanba.

As for the other two demon cultivators in the middle stage of foundation building, one of them let out a howl, and then his body exploded into a giant beast that was three meters tall. He took a step forward with a heavy axe in his hand and chopped down towards Li Yuanba. The other one's figure was illusory and almost unnoticeable in the darkness.
