Few people know what Wang Dabizi's real name is, because his nickname is too deeply rooted in people's minds and his huge nose is very recognizable.
After hearing what Huang Laosan said, he immediately put the backpack on the ground and asked anxiously, "What's going on? Can you tell me again?"
"Our village's sacrificial spirit was doing just fine, but someone suddenly broke into the village and started fighting with it. Then our village's sacrificial spirit was outmatched and killed!"
Huang Laosan's words were filled with tears. If a village did not have a memorial service for the spirits, it would basically become food for demons and monsters at night. No wonder he only brought his family to Dongshan Village.
It not only informs the public but also provides protection.
Wang Dabizi didn't dare to delay. He didn't even want the corn. He dragged Huang Laosan's hand and rushed into the village. His pace didn't seem like that of a man in his fifties at all.
The players following nearby suddenly became excited.
They are not afraid of anything except that the game is too boring.
In the past few days, I have been doing trivial things every day. Even if I went to explore the Ten Thousand Mountains, I would only encounter wild beasts and monsters. There was nothing that could make people's blood boil.
Meng Tingzhu followed the game's character creation suggestions and changed his nickname to this classically elegant one. Since entering the game, he'd been diligently completing quests, and now he was working on increasing the favorability of NPCs, aiming to maximize the favorability of every NPC in Dongshan Village!
Other games have the legend of the Sword God of Shilipo, and he plans to follow suit and develop peacefully in Dongshan Village.
Upon receiving the firsthand information, Meng Tingzhu's immediate reaction was to chase after them, while simultaneously posting on the gaming forum: "Boss, come back quickly! The Xishan Village sacrificial spirit has been killed, and something exciting is about to happen!"
In "Ascension", the communication between players is not as simple and easy as in other games, and it emphasizes the concept of "reality".
If players cannot communicate face to face, they can only do so through carrier pigeons or flying swords.
There is no so-called current channel, world channel, sect channel, etc.
Therefore, if they encounter problems, they will give priority to game forums and post relevant information on the forums.
Even if I have nothing to do, I will refresh the forum from time to time to avoid missing the exciting moments.
The thing that the players had been waiting for for a long time finally happened. When the news was released, all the players were excited.
Xie Longtao, sword in hand, was sensing the spiritual energy in the dense jungle. His teammates, upon seeing the forum post, immediately warned him, "Brother Bohe, a player reported something serious has happened in the village. The sacrificial spirit of Xishan Village has been killed by an unknown enemy, and several villagers are fleeing."
"Is this true?" Xie Longtao's game nickname is Mint Coke, which he has used for many years, but now it is somewhat incompatible with the style of "Ascension".
He subconsciously asked about the source of the news: "Who sent this news? Is it reliable?"
Don’t blame the beta testers for being cautious. In the past, netizens often deliberately fabricated some news to trick people based on their conversations and the information they revealed.
For example, the spirit of sacrifice has issued a new task or traces of monsters have been discovered in a certain place, etc.
Since they couldn’t play the game, netizens started to make fun of the beta testers.
Fortunately, there were only 105 internal test players for "Ascension". After being cheated, everyone quickly memorized each other's nicknames to avoid being pranked.
Don't blame Xie Longtao for being cautious. After they fully understood the importance of the sacrificial spirits, they gave up the idea of dealing with them.
After all, the sacrificial spirits really are the shepherds who guard the area and protect so many common people.
"It should be true. He and I are friends, and he doesn't seem like a scammer." Li Guang, another player holding a bow and arrow, said confidently, "I'll send a carrier pigeon to Meng Tingzhu to ask."
After saying that, a white dove flew out from his body and fluttered away from the dense jungle.
This is actually more like a sense of ritual. It is not a real white dove and will not be caught by other birds of prey in the forest.
Now their team has no intention of continuing the exploration.
"Then let's take a rest here and recover our spiritual power. We'll see the specific situation and then decide whether to go back." As the captain and one of the strongest players at the moment, Xie Longtao certainly doesn't want to miss the Spirit Sacrifice Battle.
Five players sat on the ground, no one was on guard, and they all entered the game forum to see if the player who originally broke the news had any updates.
The scene of Wang Dabizi dragging Huang Laosan into the village was seen by many players. Everyone put down what they were doing and rushed over to watch the fun, so there was a lot of evidence on the forum.
"I saw it too. A strange villager appeared."
"The village chief took that guy from Xishan Village into the land temple in Dongshan Village, and I can't get in!!!"
"Maybe there will be a battle to defend the spirit sacrifice."
"Let's see the true strength of the sacrificial spirit."
"Come back soon, or you might miss it."
"We're collecting herbs in the Shiwanda Mountains. It'll take us at least an hour to get back, maybe even longer."
"Hurry up and broadcast live, what's going on?"
The players were all very excited. Even slow-paced farming players like Bingxuepiaopiao kept an eye on the game forum while completing tasks.
"Damn, is there anything wrong with the sacrificial spirit of our Novice Village?"
"He looks quite strong. Didn't he even set up a formation?"
"Could it be revenge?"
"Maybe there's a mission, let us take action then."
"I hope Ji Ling perseveres, otherwise his project will become an unfinished building."
Players who are active near the village are better off; they can just spend some time and go back to join in the fun.
This is really hard for those players far away in the mountains.
Collecting herbs and killing wild beasts and monsters are not as important as protecting the safety of the village.
Li Guang looked at Captain Xie Longtao and said, "Captain, I just upgraded. The death penalty is only one hour, which is much faster than going back directly."
"Me too, I'm going to find a monster now."
"Remember to set the pain level to the lowest setting."
Never underestimate the players' determination. When they are ruthless, they may even run to their death.
Soon, souls appeared in the Earth Temple of the Universe Cave Heaven. The players stared at each other in amazement, silently waiting for the resurrection time to end.
…
"Why haven't these seeds sprouted yet?"
Lin Xiang looked at the apricot kernel in the center of the Universe Cave and felt worried. It had not sprouted at all. He wondered how many years he would have to wait before he could eat its fruit.
The top spiritual roots in the world of cultivation have a very long growth cycle, often hundreds or even thousands of years.
That is based on the fact that they have already reached the stage of blooming and bearing fruit.
The only consolation is probably that this apricot kernel has been absorbing the spiritual energy emitted from the universe and cave. Perhaps one day it will germinate when it has absorbed enough spiritual energy.
Except for the apricot kernel which stood still, the rest of the spiritual medicines and spiritual grains were full of vitality.
Growing for one day in this cave with abundant spiritual energy is equivalent to growing for a month in the wild!
"Lord Sacrifice to Spirits!"
"Master Jiling! We have something important to report!"
Waves of calls woke Lin Xiang from his thoughts. He used his spiritual sense to scan outside and saw the village chief Wang Minghai and several others standing anxiously in the land temple, each of them with a nervous look on their face.
So Lin Xiang appeared directly, wearing a feather fan and a long scarf.
Huang Laosan was unable to react for a moment when he saw the scholar who suddenly appeared. When did the sacrificial spirit of Dongshan Village become a scholar?
As the saying goes, a scholar is good for nothing and can do nothing but study.
Is this sacrificial spirit really reliable?
Lin Xiang didn't know what the others were thinking, so he asked, "What's the urgent matter?"
Wang Minghai bowed, "Huang Laosan just told us that the sacrificial spirit of Xishan Village was killed by a sudden enemy. The enemy didn't harm the common people, but only took the body away."
"Kill the sacrificial spirit?" Lin Xiang frowned slightly, gently closing the decorative fan in his hand. "Are you sure the sacrificial spirit is dead?"
Huang Laosan knelt down with a plop. "The sacrificial spirit of our Xishan Village is a kind old turtle. It has taken care of our village for decades and has never asked us to sacrifice boys and girls. It only occasionally eats vegetables and fruits. There are still dozens of elderly, weak, women and children in the village. They have no way to escape. Please save us, God of the Land!"
After he finished speaking, he kowtowed repeatedly, his forehead hitting the ground with a loud bang.
It was already around three in the afternoon, and the sun was setting. Without the protection of the sacrificial spirits, the village might not survive the night.
"Our village chief went to Qifeng Town to ask for help, but the Qifeng Town spirit and the mayor may not come to rescue us."
The sacrificial spirits in ordinary villages are all unconventional, and the imperial court does not care who they are. Instead, after the sacrificial spirit is changed, the court just asks the village chief to report and enter the spirit into the register.
Only county-level sacrificial spirits need to be reported to the Dagan court in advance. If they are killed accidentally, the Dagan court will find out the cause and help with revenge.
The Dagan Dynasty was established hundreds of years ago, and it is backed by the top sect, the Moon Shadow Palace. The nearby demons and monsters cannot easily cause any trouble.
If anyone can slaughter the sacrificial spirits at will, how can the lives of ordinary people be guaranteed?
If the common people were to disappear, the entire cultivation world would collapse, and it would be impossible to stay out of it.
Moreover, the sacrificial spirits have been guarding Xishan Village for many years. If they have not done any evil, they will have accumulated a lot of merits.
There is definitely something wrong with daring to kill a sacrificial spirit that has accumulated merits.
If one really wants to kill people and steal treasures, one would never choose to offer sacrifices to the spirits.
Evil monks rarely attack sacrificial spirits, let alone those of the righteous path.
Lin Xiang really couldn't figure it out, so he just asked, "Are you sure this isn't a vendetta?"
Huang Lao San raised his head and said firmly, "It's definitely not that. I was outside the village at the time and heard another immortal in the sky complaining about being too slow. There was another one. I wasn't sure who the next one was, so I came to Dongshan Village to inform you and ask for your help."
"There is another one..." Lin Xiang suddenly perked up. If it was really as Huang Laosan said, they would find Dongshan Village sooner or later. They had to prepare for it!
"I understand. You can go down and rest first. Don't worry about my safety." Lin Xiang pointed to the ground. "I am the land of this area. My safety is guaranteed."
How could Wang Minghai not be worried!
The sacrificial spirits of Xishan Village disappeared, and the good life here had just begun to take shape. If Lin Xiang was killed, the hope that had been ignited with great difficulty would be shattered.
"Master Ji Ling, you must be careful!"
Even though he cared deeply, he couldn't help.
The family's legacy was long gone, otherwise they wouldn't have been in such a mess on the day of the solar eclipse.
Lin Xiang nodded. He would not joke with his own life.
Game players can be resurrected, but I cannot be resurrected.
Soon, the land temple became quiet again.
The players waited at the door, and when the village chief Wang Minghai and his group came out, they immediately went up to them and asked them questions with concern.
"Village Chief, what happened?"
"Is there anything we can do? You know, we are all very strong."
"What on earth happened in Xishan Village?"
"Give us a mission! It's our duty to protect the safety of Dongshan Village!"
"We can help, give us a chance."
This group of players all saw the opportunity. Isn't this a good chance to get the mission?
Lin Xiang didn't believe Huang Laosan's words completely. What if the other party was just lying to get his help?
The old turtle has been practicing for so many years, it is very likely that he has secretly provoked enemies outside.
However, considering that Xishan Village is currently in a state without worship spirits, he plans to test it carefully. After all, the incense value is very important.
The incense value of Dongshan Village and the players has basically been drained away, and it is necessary to develop new believers.
Look, when I feel sleepy, someone hands me a pillow.
The population of Xishan Village is much larger than that of Dongshan Village. It is the largest village nearby, with about 80 households, each with four or five people. This means that Lin Xiang may have hundreds of new believers.
With these believers, it becomes much easier to do anything.
So he first fully activated the Five Elements Wu Earth Formation in the Universal Market to prevent his house from being robbed after he left.
Normally, this formation only partially activates its power in order to save energy.
Lin Xiang didn't know the identities of those who killed the sacrificial spirit. His divine state was a bit conspicuous, so he used the incense points to make a small clay figure for himself and once again played the role of an outer disciple of the Qingwei Sword Sect.
This time he was not pretending, he had a genuine jade identity card in his hand, he just appeared in another place.
The players near Dongshan Village were all a bit nervous, but the invaders hadn't arrived at all. Lin Xiang changed into his sword cultivator vest and cautiously left his area, heading towards Xishan Village.
The two villages are more than ten miles apart, and the junction is a small hill in the middle.
The small hill that was once covered with terraced fields has returned to its forest state. When Lin Xiang arrived at Xishan Village, he found that the villagers were anxiously fleeing along the official road.
He brought his whole family with him and didn't even bother to take the valuables at home.
"Auntie, please hurry up, it will be dark if you don't leave now!"
"Erlang, Sanlang, you take the children to Qifeng Town to hide first. Your mother and I will come over slowly from behind."
"What are you talking about? How could I abandon you two and run for my life? Let's go together!"
"Dad, Mom, why are we running away? Didn't we say not to go out after dark?"
"Uncle Hong, Aunt Hong, this oxcart can still accommodate two more people. Please get on quickly and throw away your bags first."
"Erniu, your Uncle Hong won't get in the car. You should take Miaomiao and leave first."
The wealthy families who had ox carts and donkey carts waved their whips to urge their animals to leave quickly, while the poor families could only rely on their feet.
It was still okay for the young and strong, but the babbling children and the elderly who were walking with difficulty were very slow and had no time to move.
Many of them even knew their fate and were unwilling to drag their children down.
Life and death, all aspects of life are revealed at this moment.
It takes a long time to go to Dongshan Village or Qifeng Town.
Lin Xiang sighed. He did not choose to help these villagers. Instead, he went to Xishan Village to see the situation of the spirit sacrifice battle first. Only by solving this fundamental problem could he save them.
At this time, Xishan Village was dead silent. Only a few lonely elderly people were still staying at home, and the rest of the houses were empty.
The chickens and ducks have returned to the coop, but there is no food.
The fat pigs in the pigsty were growling with hunger.
The small pond at the entrance of the village looked like it had been through a fierce battle, with traces of sword energy and blood from monsters still visible.
"This should be the place where the sacrificial spirits fought with the enemy." Lin Xiang stopped and searched, and found that there were four different human auras.
The old turtle was good at defense, and it was on its own land, so its defense should have been even stronger, but it still couldn't escape the fate of being slaughtered, and its body was taken away.
Lin Xiang came to the offering site for the spirits. He condensed a statue of the land god and placed it there, then used his spiritual power to activate the most basic magic-removing circle.
The magic circle that had disappeared reappeared, and Xishan Village had a brand new sacrificial spirit!
He didn't know whether that group of people would show up again, but this magic-removing circle would definitely not be able to stop them.
After the magic circle was activated, he returned to his original form and flew into the air.
When the villagers of Xishan Village saw Lin Xiang flying from the sky, they were so scared that they felt as if they had seen the King of Hell who was taking their lives.
"Please spare my life, Immortal!"
"Please, God, let us go!"
"We don't know anything, we're just ordinary people."
They mistook Lin Xiang for an accomplice of the previous man and were so scared that they begged for mercy repeatedly, fearing that the other party would come and kill them to silence them.
"You don't have to be afraid, I am the landowner of Dongshan Village. Huang Laosan just came to ask for help, so I came to take a look." Lin Xiang deliberately mentioned this name in order to dispel their fears.
"You can go directly to Dongshan Village or Qifeng Town to hide, or you can return to Xishan Village. I am currently serving as the sacrificial spirit of Xishan Village, so you don't have to worry about your safety at night."
If they were asked to return all at once, some of the villagers would definitely be afraid and disgusted.
So Lin Xiang gave the villagers several options.
If you are really scared, go to Qifeng Town or Dongshan Village. If you can't walk that far, go back to Xishan Village.
After saying this, his figure disappeared into the sky.
It’s up to the villagers to decide what to do. We can’t force them to leave.
These villagers were indeed divided into several factions.
I finally escaped, and it would be very dangerous to go back. Who knows if what this sacrificial spirit said is true!
And what if that group of people comes back?
Lin Xiang faces a problem of not having capable subordinates, so he can only hand over the task to the players.
Then two tasks appeared on the task bulletin board of the land temple in Huanyu Market.
One is patrolling Dongshan Village, and the other is guarding Xishan Village!
Lin Xiang was unable to split himself up, so he could only let the players take advantage of their numbers and send them to Xishan Village.
Once a player is killed, he will also receive a prompt so that he won't wander around.
Most players take on missions in Dongshan Village, which is more familiar and safer.
I have never been to Xishan Village, and a war just happened there. I might just be cannon fodder and die there.
Fortunately, there will always be brave men under great rewards. The rewards for garrisoning Xishan Village are quite generous, and players are directly rewarded with a spell in advance.
Pills have costs, but spells have no costs at all, so it's a very profitable investment.
One person is learning, and a hundred people are also learning.
Players with magic protection will be more powerful in combat, so they can better protect the villagers who decide to return to Xishan Village.
Even though the jurisdiction area is getting larger and larger, Xishan Village is still not under Lin Xiang's jurisdiction, so it cannot receive any support from there.
In Xishan Village, he was just like any other ordinary spirit worshiper or cultivator.
In order to make the villagers of Xishan Village trust the players, the village chief Wang Minghai took Huang Laosan and fifteen players to Xishan Village.
The villagers who escaped were temporarily placed in the Huanyu Market and were not allowed to enter Dongshan Village.
"Is this Dongshan Village?"
“The buildings are neater and cleaner than those in Qifeng Town, and there’s no odor at all.”
"There are also shops here selling things...all of which sell things the immortals need!"
"I remember Dongshan Village was very poor and small. How did it become like this now?"
“It’s so comfortable.”
"Is Dongshan Village safe? Will it be in danger like our village?"
"Dad, is this Dongshan Village? Why does it look so much better than our village?"
These villagers who fled here were all extremely surprised. In their memory, Dongshan Village was small, dilapidated, poor, and had few people.
In the past, when villages fought over diversion of water from ditches, the people from Dongshan Village had the least number of people, but they were just fierce.
Many people have been here before. After all, it is inevitable to visit here frequently for weddings, funerals and other matters.
Seeing the surprise of these old neighbors, clan elder Wang Xiuyuan stepped forward to comfort them, saying, "Minghai has brought these young heroes to support your Xishan Village. With the help of these kind-hearted and powerful young heroes, the village will definitely be fine."
In rural areas, the older you are, the more prestigious you are.
Wang Xiuyuan is already in his seventies, which makes him an old man in rural areas where the average life expectancy is relatively low. He enjoys prestige in the surrounding area.
What's more, he has the inheritance of a family of cultivators. Even if he cannot cultivate immortality, he has much broader knowledge than an ordinary country bumpkin.
"This is Dongshan Village. The main thing is that we have a good spirit who is leading us in development and has also invited so many heroes to help us."
Wang Xiuyuan was leaning on a cane and looked very energetic.
"Uncle Xiuyuan, I haven't seen you for several years, but you are still so strong." Xu Han, a middle-aged man with wrinkles on his face, said. He parked the ox cart aside and looked around with envy.
"It seems you have a good sacrificial spirit, but can it stop those bad guys?"
Xu Han was worried. He brought his whole family to Dongshan Village. What if the sacrificial spirits here were also killed?
Wang Xiuyuan stamped his cane and said with full energy, "Of course not. Our Lord Jiling is the God of the Land. He is not comparable to that turtle in your village. You sit down and rest for a while. I will take you to the inn to rest for the night."
Xu Han was particularly surprised: "You have an inn here?"
There are only small and dilapidated inns in Qifeng Town, but there is also one in such a remote mountain village!
What exactly caused this mountain village to undergo such earth-shaking changes?
"Of course there is. You're lucky. That inn was originally for the immortals to stay in, but now it's for you to stay in." Wang Xiuyuan boasted, "This market is the trading place that Master Ji Ling prepared for the immortals."
Upon hearing this, Xu Han and the other villagers of Xishan Village breathed lighter and looked around. The fear in their hearts lessened, but they felt more restrained, fearing that they would dirty the ground.
The immortals are all gods flying in the sky, and we are lucky enough to be among them.
"Uncle Xiuyuan, your Dongshan Village has really become prosperous."
“What a beautiful street!”
"These houses are so neatly built and look comfortable."
"Do I need to pay to stay at the inn? I only brought a few coins with me."
The villagers became increasingly uneasy, feeling that they did not have enough money in their pockets.
Wang Xiuyuan pointed to the Earth God Temple in the distance and said, "You don't need to spend any money. You just need to burn some incense to the Earth God sincerely, and he will bless you."
"Is this really all that's going to work?"
"Of course, the God of Land is very generous!"
…
"Please pray to the God of Land to bless our village."
"I hope everything goes well for the Earth God and that he won't be defeated by those bad guys."
"I hope we can return to Xishan Village safely."
"I haven't even fed my pigs yet. God of the Land, please protect our village!"
"Can the God of Land really hear our prayers? If he can, I don't want anything else but to pray that my parents can be safe and sound."
Prayers along with the incense value were transmitted to Lin Xiang's ears.
At this time, he was stationed in the place closest to Xishan Village in his jurisdiction. From here, he could attack or defend and could reach Xishan Village as quickly as possible.
These prayers all come from the villagers of Xishan Village. What they want most is of course to return home.
Because of their earnest anticipation and desire, they donated a particularly large amount of incense value, which made Lin Xiang very happy.
"Who are those people and what is their purpose?"
Without any clues, we can only wait and see.
If he doesn't meet the mysterious person tonight, he can only go to the Trial Tower of Qingwei Sword Sect to level up a few more times before coming back.
There is only a thief who steals for a thousand days, but there is no one who guards against thieves for a thousand days.
If the other party doesn't come, Lin Xiang can only set up a defensive formation for Xishan Village and then send a few players to garrison there.
As the sun sets, gusts of cold wind appear out of nowhere.
The golden afterglow fell on the mountain, casting long shadows.
Suddenly, a young man in a blue Taoist robe came rushing over from a distance on a flying boat at a very fast speed.
Lin Xiang's consciousness didn't even have time to react before he discovered that the cultivator had attacked the Five Elements Wu Earth Formation!
The khaki light shield firmly protected the Huanyu Market and Dongshan Village, and the mysterious monk's fire spell attacks only caused ripples on it.
"It's you!"
Lin Xiang did not take action on his own, but allowed the other party to bombard him relentlessly.
If the Five Elements Wu Earth Formation could be broken so easily, it would be useless.
What's more, he quietly mobilized the spiritual energy and gathered it in the formation.
"Where are your accomplices?"
Lin Xiang's body was hidden underground, without leaking a single breath. It was certainly no problem for him to trap this mysterious monk, but he was afraid that the news would leak out and attract other people.
However, he looked left and right and did not find any other monks around. He thought that the other party was a little too arrogant.
In this case, Lin Xiang took out the Panlong Whip from his dantian, and then suddenly used the innate ability of the land god in his jurisdiction to directly block the area around the cultivator. He rushed out from the ground like a rocket, and suddenly smashed the Panlong Whip at the opponent.
This mysterious monk was determined to break through the defensive formation and was indeed paying attention to the situation around him, but the ability of the land god was beyond his comprehension. The air around him seemed to solidify. His head sensed that there was a monk attacking him from below, but his body and limbs seemed to be in slow motion. He could only watch the opponent's weapon fall.
"Bang!"
A huge noise was heard outside the Five Elements Wu Earth Formation.
When Lin Xiang heard this sound, he knew that he had failed to hit the opponent's head. The tortoise shell defensive magic weapon on the cultivator's body suddenly appeared and blocked his head.
Although he was still dizzy from the beating, fortunately it was not fatal.
If he encountered a mysterious monk outside Dongshan Village, Lin Xiang would use the ability of the Swordsman Vest, but the opponent had already come to Dongshan Village, and if he used the swordsmanship of the Qingwei Sword Sect, people would associate the Swordsman Vest with him.
Kill him while he is ill.
Lin Xiang knew that he definitely didn't have as many tricks as his opponent, so he directly borrowed the power of the surrounding earth veins and added it to the Panlong Whip. The weight of the entire Panlong Whip suddenly increased, as if it were a whole piece of land.
Spiritual power poured into the Panlong Whip as if it were free.
The mysterious monk was still under control. Seeing Lin Xiang's whip falling, he used the same trick again, mobilizing the tortoise shell magic weapon again and enlarging it to cover his entire body.
But this time the tortoise shell could no longer hold back. The Panlong Whip, which had the power to move mountains, weighed no more than one or two tons, but was carrying the entire land of Dongshan Village.
With a click, the turtle shell cracked open!
"No!"
The mysterious monk was terrified that the mid-grade magical weapon-level Black Turtle Shield was shattered just like that.
He was not a physical cultivator, so his body was smashed directly into the mud underground. The mud was like flowing water, binding him tightly, leaving only his head outside.
After just two rounds, he was seriously injured and dying before he could even make a move.
[Defeat the lv.19 cultivator Feng Jianan and gain 3000 experience points.]
The cultivator who had reached the great perfection of Qi Refining Stage was captured in this way, and Lin Xiang was given enough experience points to directly upgrade to level 12 and obtain another upgrade kit.
The whole action was done in one go. It was not a fair fight as imagined, but rather one-sided.
The players who were originally in the Five Elements Wu Earth Formation were all nervous and excited when they saw the fire spell attack, but before they could assemble a team, the sacrificial spirit suddenly appeared and ended it all.
During the ground blockade, the area around this cultivator became a soulless place without any trace of spiritual energy, and all the spiritual power in his body was also blocked.
Lin Xiang led the enemy into the land temple easily, and the players around him were stunned.
"So our sacrificial spirit is so powerful! Even a level 19 cultivator is no match for it."
"His ability to challenge opponents of higher levels is too strong!"
"A true man never reveals his true self. It seems he still has many good things to show off."
"I bet that the weapon of the Earth God must be very powerful."
"So I committed suicide and came back just to watch the spirit sacrifice performance?"
"Hurry, hurry, we must interrogate him thoroughly to find out what's wrong with this guy."
"As usual, if we capture this enemy, there will definitely be many more coming our way. Brothers, let's not wait around inside. We can't attack from inside this formation's protective shield."
"Wow, the land god is so handsome! Love it!"
Players are eager to interrogate something from this enemy, or use it as a bait to attract other enemies, provided that their level is too high.
Just like this lv.19 cultivator is too powerful. Even if players use ant tactics, there is nothing they can do. It’s not just the level difference, but also the spells and magic weapons equipment.
The key to Lin Xiang's victory lies in the power of the Panlong Whip. It can withstand the force of the earth veins. After all, it was once a magic weapon-level equipment.
It can be said that this cultivator was not far from losing. If he was outside Lin Xiang's territory, he would not lose. But he just happened to be delivered to his doorstep!
In the area under the jurisdiction of the God of Land, Lin Xiang is a god, and in other areas he is just an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator.
"Tell me the truth, who are you? Why are you attacking my formation?"
Lin Xiang was ready to start the interrogation. If the other party kept his mouth shut and refused to cooperate, he would beat his soul out.
The land priest has certain underworld abilities, and has used this method to deal with players before.
But before he could threaten him, the man started to blurt out his identity and background in great detail.
"Fellow Daoist, spare my life!"
"My name is Feng Jianan. I'm from the Liehuo Sect of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I came to Dagan in response to the call of the Yaowang Sect."
Lin Xiang nodded. At least Feng Jianan hadn't lied about the name, because that was the name he had detected. He remained calm and asked, "Since you're from the Great Zhou, why are you sneaking into our city?"
Once two large countries are involved, he will have a headache, as his small mountain village cannot withstand the turmoil.
Feng Jianan didn't hide anything: "The Medicine King Sect asked us to kill these sacrificial spirits around the border of Dagan, to create chaos in Dagan and make the people of Dagan suffer and run for their lives."
Sure enough, this person was clearly the one who had gone deep into the enemy camp to cause trouble.
The Yaowang Sect is a super sect on par with the Qingwei Sword Sect. It is best at refining medicine, and therefore holds an extraordinary status in the world of cultivation.
"In order to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill reward from the Medicine King Sect, cultivators like us from smaller sects can only take risks. If we succeed, we can enter the Foundation Establishment Stage."
Feng Jianan knew that he and his companions were in great danger. Even if they were not caught by Lin Xiang, they might fall into the hands of other masters of Dagan.
From the Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage, it is difficult to buy a Foundation Establishment Pill just by saving money on your own.
However, the Yaowang Sect took out a large number of foundation-building pills, which naturally moved a group of cultivators who were on the verge of a breakthrough.
Waves are about to rise, and one great power is going to go to war with another. No matter what the outcome, it will disrupt the current situation.
Dagan itself is already in turmoil, and now there is an invasion by foreign enemies. Under the pressure of internal and external troubles, I am afraid that there will be a reshuffle!
Lin Xiang's weak arms and legs simply don't have the strength to intervene in a war of this level.
The Great Zhou has two super sects, one is the Fahua Temple and the other is the Yaowang Sect.
On Dagan's side, there is only one super sect, the Moon Shadow Palace. If a war breaks out, the chances of winning in a 1V2 situation are slim.
What's more, was Da Zhou the only country that invaded Dagan?
Will there be a pack of wolves surrounding us and dividing us?
