The cultivation of the Five Immortals lineage mainly relies on two methods.
One is the power of faith and incense, and the other is the power of the dragon vein.
The former enhances their supernatural powers, while the latter enhances their cultivation level.
That's why they were so eager to support the Jurchens of the North in attacking the Central Plains—they wanted to seize the Central Plains' dragon veins for cultivation.
But now the Jurchens in the north are too weak, and Yang Cheng is leading the Great Zhou to a revival. It seems that the opportunity to enter the Central Plains is about to be lost, so they are naturally anxious.
Chang Tianlong's face was gloomy, but seeing the expressions of the other demon immortals below, he suppressed his anger.
For most ordinary demon immortals, becoming an immortal is of course more important than avenging Chang Tianlong's ninth sister.
"Fox Fairy, what do you think?"
Chang Tianlong turned his gaze to the fox fairy who had remained silent.
This guy has always maintained a neutral stance, or rather, he's adept at navigating between different sides, so generally no one would go out of their way to offend this woman.
The fox fairy crossed her legs, revealing two long, slender, and perfectly rounded legs, which swayed gently, making the little demons below drool.
“Both of you have a point. I’m just a woman with little experience, so of course it’s up to you, Brother Chang and Grandpa Huang, who are highly respected elders, to make the decision.”
Upon hearing this, both sides snorted inwardly, knowing that this woman was going to try to smooth things over again.
Sure enough, the fox fairy continued, "To fight directly would be a bit reckless. If we rush to join forces, we won't be able to swallow this insult."
Besides, the Jurchens of the North have served us for so many years with great respect, it wouldn't be right to betray them now.
How about this, let's go and talk to Yang Cheng. If he's willing to withdraw his troops and return Chang Cuiyun's divided soul, and make offerings to my Five Immortal Lineage, then everything will be fine.
If he doesn't know what's good for him, then let him know who's really in charge here in this land of white mountains and black waters!
Although the fox spirit was a peacemaker, her suggestions were acceptable to both sides.
Outside the valley, Helie Xiyan and the leaders of the eight Jurchen tribes knelt outside the Five Immortals Valley, their hearts filled with despair.
If the Five Immortals don't intervene, the Jurchen tribe will truly have no way out.
Just then, five divine rays descended, transforming into illusory light and shadow that hovered in mid-air.
"Helie Xiyan, do not worry. In this land of white mountains and black waters, no one can touch you."
"Go find Yang Cheng's whereabouts, and we will naturally send someone to communicate with him."
He Liexi Yan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly bowed, saying, "I will obey the decree of the Immortal."
At this time, Yang Cheng was still in Yuwen Du's military camp, while Luo Fei, Xuanwei Zhenren, and other Jianghu people were told to leave first.
The Five Immortals' methods are somewhat different from those of ordinary people in the martial arts world. They mainly cultivate martial arts, so their presence wouldn't be of much use.
Moreover, Yang Cheng's purpose in this trip was not to kill the Five Immortals, but to subdue them with the Five Wraiths' Souls, so he didn't want them dead, but alive.
At this time, the military camp was stationed beside the Heishui River, a major river in northeastern Liaoning.
The northeastern part of Liaoning is known as the White Mountains and Black Waters. The White Mountains refer to the fact that the mountains here are covered with snow all year round, so they appear white, and the Black Waters refer to the Black Water River.
Actually, the Blackwater River is very clear, but because the water is deep and the stones in the river are dark, it appears dark from a distance.
"Grand Commander, I have interrogated many Jurchen prisoners during this period, but I have not been able to find out the location of the Five Immortals Valley."
Yuwen Du reported to Yang Cheng with some shame.
"The Five Immortals lineage holds a high position in the Jurchen tribes. Only some high-ranking shamans and Jurchen tribe leaders know the location of the Five Immortals Valley."
Yang Cheng waved his hand casually and said, "It doesn't matter. The Five Immortals lineage still wants to rely on the Jurchen tribe to develop the dragon vein. They won't sit idly by and watch the Jurchen tribe perish. They'll take action sooner or later."
My desire to find out the location of Five Immortals Valley was simply to strike first.
Besides the Jurchens, do the people in some local towns know anything about the whereabouts of some shamanic practitioners? We could capture a few of those guys and interrogate them.
Yuwen Du shook his head and said, "Actually, there aren't many local shamanic disciples in Liaodong. If they heard the noise, they would probably have already fled."
Moreover, these guys don't have a good reputation; they often cause trouble for local residents, so people won't invite their disciples unless absolutely necessary.
Those shamans claim to be immortals, but in reality they're just some evil spirits.
They'll save your life first, but their real intention is to take it away. Many people have been driven to ruin and death by them.
Moreover, they also knew that the Jurchens worshipped the lineage of the shamans, so they never harmed the Jurchens, but only the Central Plains people who had fled there.
"This time, when our Great Zhou swept through Liaodong, many people welcomed us, hoping that our Great Zhou could completely occupy Liaodong and no longer allow them to suffer the humiliation from the Jurchens and the Five Immortals."
Although the area of Liaodong in the north is not as large as that of the northern grasslands, it is not small either. However, the Jurchens all came from the dense forests, while the majority of the people on the local plains were people from the Central Plains who fled famine.
These people also had a very hard life in Liaodong. They were often oppressed by the Jurchens and sometimes had to face evil spirits like shamans. They had little power in the local area.
Yang Cheng said, "The thoughts of shamans and other evil beings are naturally different from those of humans."
For every bit you give, you get back ten. When dealing with these evil spirits, unless you can subdue them with your fists, you can forget about having an equal conversation with them.
