The Ziyue Kingdom would rather give up the opportunity to be promoted to a fourth-level cultivation country immediately and mobilize the entire country to attack the Jingwu Kingdom. No matter from which angle you look at this war, the Ziyue Kingdom has a huge advantage.
However, when two countries go to war, the casualties are difficult to estimate. Why would the other side go to so much trouble to deal with this small third-level cultivation country?
Or rather...
"There are many third-level cultivation countries around, why do you want to attack Jingwu Kingdom?" Xue Kong asked again.
Lingyun was extremely reluctant to confess this, but her body was out of her control and she opened her mouth and said, "We heard that there is a Seven Star Fire Formation in the Three Immortals Sect, and we came here specifically for it."
"The Seven-Star Fire Formation?" Xue Kong remembered this formation. It was the protective formation of the Three Immortals Sect. It also possessed certain astrological and divination powers, which was why they took it so seriously.
Is there anything unusual about this formation?
This time, before Xue Kong could ask again, Ling Yun explained uncontrollably, "The Seven-Star Fire Formation wasn't created by any cultivator. It was a meteorite that fell from outer space, containing the power of a star from outer space. It landed on the mountain where the Three Immortals Dao Sect is located and was occupied by the Three Immortals Dao Sect."
"These people used the power of the extraterrestrial star within the meteorite to arrange it into a formation. This is a secret of the Three Immortals Sect. If we hadn't inquired about it in advance, we probably wouldn't have known about it."
"This Seven-Star Fire Formation can attract stars from outer space and peek into the secrets of the Southern Shao Territory."
Hearing this, Xue Kong pondered silently. He didn't know much about the Seven Star Fire Array, but he had heard from the fairy that it had the effect of divination. Only now did he know the truth.
No wonder the Ziyue Kingdom went to such great lengths to attack the Jingwu Kingdom. It turned out that it was not for anything else but just because of this meteorite from outer space.
For a moment, Xue Kong's mind was full of thoughts. He had originally planned to secretly leave Jingwu Kingdom and go to a safer country before the war between the two countries caused great suffering. But now, he has slightly changed his mind.
Xue Kong's silence made Lingyun nervous. After revealing such an important secret, she didn't know what decision Xue Kong would make, whether to tell the King of Jingwu Kingdom that there was a Nascent Soul cultivator in Ziyue Kingdom.
Then he reported to the higher heaven and punished the Purple Moon Kingdom.
Or have other plans.
Her heart was pounding as she looked at Xue Kong nervously. He slowly raised his head and his gaze fell on her face again. He asked again, "Is that Nascent Soul cultivator your master?"
"Yes." Lingyun nodded.
"What kind of cultivation?"
"Early Nascent Soul stage."
"Where is he now?" Xue Kong asked.
Ling Yun shook her head: "I don't know. After Master arranged the operation for us, he left on his own. I don't know whether he is in Ziyue Country or came with us to Jingwu Country."
"Master once said that if we could defeat Jingwu Kingdom with our strength, he would not show up to avoid being noticed by the Upper Heavenly Kingdom. He would only take action when it was absolutely necessary."
"Early stage of Nascent Soul..." Xue Kong muttered to himself. If that person was in the middle stage of Nascent Soul or above, he would immediately leave Jingwu Country and find another way out. But now, he was not afraid.
If Master Guanglin could come out of seclusion in time, he would also be a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage. Although there is a difference in strength between the two, there will not be a crushing situation between them.
During this period, he had a lot to do.
Xue Kong smiled faintly: "As the saying goes, when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits."
"When two countries go to war, the outcome is still uncertain. I am just a small pawn, but I can stir up the storm and decide the outcome."
Seeing the smile on Xue Kong's face and hearing his words, Ling Yun tensed up, frightened by his audacity: "This man actually intends to seek advantage in this war between the two countries. He is not afraid of Master."
She couldn't believe it.
If someone had heard that the enemy had a Nascent Soul cultivator in charge, they would probably have been scared out of their wits and fled.
Who dares to seek benefits from a Nascent Soul cultivator?
But this person dares.
Really bold.
"Put on your clothes and follow me to help the Sanxian Dao Sect." Xue Kong's cold voice penetrated Lingyun's ears, causing her body to tremble.
He shook his head violently: "No! I cannot betray my country and my people, and even more so, I cannot betray my Master. I..."
Xue Kong didn't have time to listen to her. He secretly activated the immortal fetus and demon seed. Ling Yun's voice stopped immediately. Her hands and feet stood up uncontrollably. The torn clothes fell off her body, revealing a white body.
The resentment in her eyes intensified again.
Picking up the storage bag that fell on the ground, a brand new pink long dress appeared on her body, covering her body.
Xue Kong glanced at her, not caring about how she felt. After giving her a taboo, he took her out of the cave, walked in the air, and rushed towards the Three Immortals Gate.
Flying in the air, Ling Yun stared fiercely at Xue Kong's back. If looks could kill, Xue Kong would have been cut into pieces by her long ago. But it was of no use what she did.
Xue Kong was calm inside and didn't care about other people's hatred at all.
After a while, she seemed to begin to understand that everything she had done was in vain. She didn't know what secret technique Xue Kong was using, but this secret technique was very overbearing. With her experience and the great perfection of the late Jindan stage, she couldn't find a way to break it.
She felt even more clearly the suppression of the taboos on her, and was unable to say certain words or even make certain suggestions.
After pondering for a long time, although she was extremely unwilling in her heart, she finally had to accept the fact of becoming Xue Kong's slave. However, she was ashamed to meet the people of Ziyue Kingdom with such an ugly face, and was even more unwilling to meet her colleagues and master like this.
So she took out a black robe from her storage bag and covered her whole body. She also took out a mask and covered her face to hide her appearance and prevent others from discovering her identity.
After doing all this, she felt a little relieved. With a heart full of melancholy and complexity, she followed Xue Kong and headed towards the Sanxian Dao Gate.
Xue Kong turned a blind eye to her actions.
Inwardly, he chuckled, "Everyone in the world loves face and takes it very seriously, but they don't realize that what can truly cause great harm is the subsequent actions. Identity and stance are not important at all."
"Could it be that by hiding my appearance and not letting the Purple Moon Nation cultivators see my identity, I can offset the damage I've personally inflicted on them?"
"It's just self-deception."
“…”
In this war, the primary target that Ziyue Kingdom intended to capture was not the Jingwu Kingdom’s palace, but the Sanxian Dao Sect.
Therefore, no Jindan cultivator led an army to attack the Jingwu Kingdom's palace. Most of the Jindan cultivators surrounded the Sanxian Dao Gate, besieged it tightly, and did not let anyone in or out.
"The Purple Moon Nation came swiftly and fiercely, and we couldn't find a way to break through. If it weren't for the power of the Seven Star Fire Formation, the mountain gate would have been captured by them long ago."
On the top of the mountain of the Three Immortals Sect, a disciple of the Three Immortals Sect said dejectedly.
The people around looked up at the sky. The air was densely packed with cultivators from the Purple Moon Nation, like a dark cloud, weighing heavily on the hearts of everyone in the Three Immortals Sect.
