Chapter 180: Strong men gather together, and the storm rises
Yinlou is mysterious, and the owner of Yinlou is even more mysterious.
Even a strong man like Bai Yunkong had only seen him from afar, an octogenarian.
According to the information we know so far, the owner of Yinlou has always been very old. Everyone who knows him secretly calls him the old immortal! "The owner of Yinlou should not be underestimated. It's not that I look down on you, but with your current strength, I'm afraid you may not be his opponent."
Bai Yunkong said solemnly.
"It's not a big problem. Even if I am no match for him now, it is impossible for him to kill me. I can kill him in less than a month."
Xu Yan said confidently.
Bai Yunkong's mouth twitched. In less than a month, he could kill the owner of the Hidden Tower? Doesn't that mean he could also kill himself in a month? Where did he get the confidence from?
However, Bai Yunkong did not think that Xu Yan was arrogant. Facts have proved that Xu Yan has never been arrogant and everything he said is true.
The more this happened, the more uncomfortable Bai Yunkong felt.
I feel like I have no idea where my cultivation has gone for most of my life.
Look at Xu Yan, improving his strength is as easy as eating and drinking.
The first time I came to the Seven Stars Academy and passed the martial arts arena, my strength was not yet superior to that of a Grand Master.
As a result, within a few days, he defeated the grandmaster on the spot!
It’s only been a short time since then, and he has killed several top grandmasters. In another month, he won’t be a match for them!
"Master White House, do you know what the purpose of the Hidden Tower is?"
Xu Yan asked curiously.
Why did Yin Lou stop at nothing to capture his junior sister? A deep hatred?
Is it related to Junior Sister’s background?
"I don't know. Yinlou has always been mysterious. This is the first time that Yinlou has taken such a high-profile action."
Bai Yunkong shook his head.
At this moment, a kite landed.
Bai Yunkong took the envelope and looked at it, then said, "Leng Qiu, a disciple of Jian Zunya, is outside the academy and wants to look for you. He looks very anxious. Do you want to go meet him?"
Xu Yan was startled. If there was no urgent matter, he would not be so anxious to see him, so he stood up and said, "Then I will take my leave first. Let those martial arts scholars find a chance to go to Canglan Island to wait for me."
"Can!"
Bai Yunkong nodded.
Outside the Seven Stars Academy, Xu Yan met Leng Qiu. Since his last instruction, Leng Qiu's sword skills have improved greatly.
"What's the matter that you're in such a hurry to find me for?"
Leng Qiu handed him a letter and said, "This is from Senior Brother Xie. He asked me to pass it on to you."
When Xu Yan opened the letter, his eyes suddenly turned cold. The Kingdom of Dai Viet was really arrogant. Although Tianbao Pavilion did not take any action, it was waiting for the opportunity.
Seems to be waiting for help from Changqing Pavilion.
"Thank you very much."
Xu Yan clasped his fists.
We must return to Tieshan County to deal with the impending crisis. Since the Tianyi Guards of Dai Yue Kingdom have arrived, other forces will gradually become aware of the location of Changqing Pavilion.
Although the Tianyi Guards were wiped out, the Dai Viet Kingdom would never let it go.
As one of the three major countries in the inner domain, its foundation and strength are extremely strong.
Xu Yan went to the Collection Pavilion to find Meng Chong, and the two immediately set off back to Tieshan County.
…
In the imperial study in the capital of Dai Viet, the Emperor of Dai Viet looked gloomy.
All the Tianyi Guards that were sent out were wiped out, not a single one was left alive. From the known information, except for the Sword Master Ya Hu Hai who killed the grandmaster, the rest of the grandmaster warriors were all killed by the strong men in Changqing Pavilion.
"Jian Zun Ya!"
The Emperor of Dai Viet had a gloomy look in his eyes.
"Do you really think that my Great Yue Kingdom is easy to bully?"
Although Jianzun Ya is extremely powerful, Dai Viet is not weak either. Moreover, Jianzun Ya has to stop many forces and will not rashly go to war with Dai Viet.
“Order the four princes Pan, Zheng, Hong, and Ma to join forces to stop the strong men from Jian Zunya from going to Lanping County to show the attitude of our Great Yue Kingdom;
“Order the commanders of the Tianyi Guard and Tianyu Guard to lead their elite troops to Lanping County immediately and wait for orders.
"Order the Divine Spear Army to go to Lanping County and blockade Tieshan County."
The Emperor of Dai Viet gave the order angrily.
Tianyi Guard and Tianyu Guard are the two main internal guards of the royal family, and they are extremely powerful.
The Divine Spear Army is the defense force of the Great Viet Kingdom. The minimum cultivation requirement to enter the Divine Spear Army is the fifth level.
The capital of Dai Viet was shaken, and many ministers were horrified. Why did the Dai Viet King suddenly mobilize the Divine Spear Army, and the elite Tianyi Guards and Tianyu Guards were also dispatched.
Among the five great princes, four of them went out to express their attitudes to Jian Zun Ya.
Soon, the news spread that Changqing Pavilion was in Tieshan County, Lanping Commandery, and the first attempt by Tianyiwei to convey the imperial edict to incorporate Changqing Pavilion failed.
All the major families in Dai Viet sent out their strong men to participate in this operation, and the Emperor of Dai Viet allowed it.
They naturally understood what it meant to incorporate Changqing Pavilion. Once successful, the strength of the Dai Viet Kingdom would inevitably increase dramatically.
It only takes a few dozen or even a hundred years of accumulation to unify the other two countries and the inner region! When the elite troops of Dai Viet were dispatched, the Emperor of Dai Viet personally came to Tianbao Pavilion.
"Will your Excellency intervene this time?"
The King of Dai Viet asked directly to the point.
The Tianbao Pavilion expert smiled slightly and said, "We, the Tianbao Pavilion, only do business and do not interfere in the struggles between the inner domain forces, just like we did not interfere in the establishment and collapse of the dynasty."
"You really won't interfere?"
The Emperor of Great Vietnam looked straight at the other party.
The importance of the Qi Condensation Pill is self-evident. How could Tianbao Pavilion really not be tempted at all? "My Tianbao Pavilion has principles. Unless the other party joins my Tianbao Pavilion and becomes a member of my Tianbao Pavilion, my Tianbao Pavilion will not take action. The Great Yue Emperor can rest assured."
The strong men from Tianbao Pavilion still had smiles on their faces.
The King of Dai Yue stared at him. The meaning of Tianbao Pavilion was very clear. If Changqing Pavilion could not hold on, it would surrender to Tianbao Pavilion.
Then he is a member of Tianbao Pavilion. If Dai Yue Kingdom continues to take action, it will target Tianbao Pavilion, and Tianbao Pavilion will definitely respond at that time.
Of course, if Changqing Pavilion does not ask for help and does not join Tianbao Pavilion, then Tianbao Pavilion will not take action.
However, since Tianbao Pavilion said so, it must be confident that Changqing Pavilion will eventually ask for help and join Tianbao Pavilion.
“Tianbao Pavilion has taken too much. The Yunqi Pill is not something that can be controlled by one family, not even Tianbao Pavilion.”
The Emperor of Dai Viet stood up and left.
He knew that in this battle for the Yunqi Pill, the Dai Yue Kingdom alone could not fight against the Tianbao Pavilion. Only when all the major forces joined forces could they balance the Tianbao Pavilion.
We can no longer allow Tianbao Pavilion to monopolize the Yunqi Pill.
On this day, the top forces in the inner domain, under the coordination of the Great Viet Kingdom, joined in this action.
This is a tacit understanding that Tianbao Pavilion cannot continue to enjoy the benefits of Yunqi Pills alone!
The Seven Star Academy still had no intention of getting involved in the dispute, and always remained neutral, adhering to the principle of teaching martial arts, and not interfering in the martial arts disputes in the inner domain.
"It's a turbulent time."
Bai Yunkong sighed.
"Teacher, can Xu Yan withstand it?"
Fu Yuntian asked curiously.
“I don’t know, but he won’t die. In a month, when he is strong enough to kill the master of Yinlou, the royal family of Daiyue will be in danger.
"Any force that takes action will be in danger."
Bai Yunkong shook his head, but he was sure that Xu Yan would not die, even though Changqing Pavilion might suffer heavy losses.
As long as Xu Yan is not dead, any force that takes action will be killed.
"Will Jian Zun Ya take action?"
Fu Yuntian said in a deep voice.
"Xie Tianheng is in seclusion. Xie Lingfeng is still young and can't make the decision. But hasn't he already taken action? He stopped many powerful people."
Bai Yunkong smiled and said.
"I do admire Jian Zunya for not taking advantage of the situation and dividing up the profits."
Fu Yuntian sighed.
Jian Zun Ya already knew about the matter of the Yunqi Pill, but he did not have any other thoughts.
In addition to the close relationship between Xie Lingfeng and Xu Yan, the guys from Jianzun Cliff are also much more noble than those from other forces.
"A group of people who practice swordsmanship, especially the Jianzun Cliff controlled by Xie Tianheng, are arrogant in their bones. How could they do such a thing as stealing treasures from others?"
Bai Yunkong smiled and said.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Hidden building.
The seven top grandmasters reunited on the top floor.
"Owner, we found the person!"
The owner of the Hidden Tower's eyes sparkled, and he became excited. He asked, "Where is it?"
"Dayue Kingdom, Lanping County, Tieshan County, Changqing Pavilion. It seems that Changqing Pavilion was founded by her, and the Yunqi Pill was also developed by her."
A peak Grand Master said respectfully.
"Good, good, good, worthy of being the bloodline of the Spirit Realm, truly extraordinary!"
The owner of Yinlou sighed.
"Master, many forces including the Great Yue Kingdom are gathering in Lanping County, preparing to divide up the Changqing Pavilion, control the Yunqi Pill, and prevent the Tianbao Pavilion from taking it all."
The owner of the Hidden Tower stood up and said, "Everyone, follow me to Tieshan County. Su Lingxiu must not fall into the hands of others. She belongs to my Hidden Tower."
As he walked out, he ordered, "Tell Demon Lord Ku Jue that the person has been found. If you want to enter the gate of the spirit realm, then join forces with us."
"Yes, host!"
A peak Grand Master said respectfully.
A portal opened on the mountain where the Hidden Tower was located, and eight figures walked out from it.
The aged master of Yinlou looked around, then rose into the air and led the seven top grandmasters to Tieshan County of Lanping County.
At the same time, a kite flew out of the hidden building and flew towards a certain place.
In a canyon filled with gray fog and miasma, a person with a dried-up body was sitting cross-legged on a large rock.
All around his body were corpses, some human and some animal, all of which were dry and shriveled.
All the grass and trees around were withered.
A green poisonous frog jumped over, and just as it got about ten feet close to the boulder, it instantly shrank and turned into a dried-up dead frog.
A kite descended from mid-air, but before it got close, it fell down with a thud and turned into a dried up dead bird.
The skinny man who looked like a corpse sitting on the big rock opened his eyes, raised his hand, and took the envelope from Fei Yuan's feet.
"Lanping County, Tieshan County?"
The eyes of the Demon Lord Ku Jue showed excitement, and he soared into the air and headed straight for Lanping County.
In the Kingdom of Dai Viet, things were turbulent, and the eyes of many warriors were focused on Lanping County and the impoverished Tieshan County.
The Divine Spear Army came in a mighty force and blocked the road to Tieshan County.
The same blockade was imposed on anyone leaving Tieshan County.
In the City Lord's Mansion of Lanping County, a middle-aged man wearing a purple robe, with three long beards and a resolute face, sat high on the main seat.
“My Great Yue Kingdom has joined forces with all of you to prevent Tianbao Pavilion from monopolizing the Yunqi Pills. Otherwise, if we want to obtain Yunqi Pills in the future, we will have to go to Tianbao Pavilion to buy them, and the supply cannot even be guaranteed.
"Since Changqing Pavilion is within the borders of our Great Yue Kingdom, it should belong to our Great Yue Kingdom. I hope to share the Qi-invigorating Pill with all the participants, but I need a distribution plan."
The purple-robed man said in a deep voice.
"King Purple has no problem speaking frankly."
A strong man spoke.
The Purple-Robed King was a prestigious prince of the Dai Viet royal family, a top grandmaster with immense power, and the commander-in-chief of the Tianyu Guards.
In order to obtain the Yunqi Pill from Changqing Pavilion, the Kingdom of Dai Yue dispatched the elite members of Tianyi Guard and Tianyu Guard. Their strength is so strong that no other force present here can match it.
But in order to counter the Tianbao Pavilion and prevent it from having exclusive power, they joined forces with various major forces.
"My Great Yue Kingdom will take 50% of the share, and the remaining 50% will be divided equally among you."
The Purple King spoke in a deep voice.
The powerful men from all the major forces were all silent. It took a long while before they nodded, which was considered as their approval of this distribution plan.
Of course, whether this will be the final distribution can only be determined after taking control of Changqing Pavilion and obtaining the method of refining Yunqi Pills.
What's more, among them, there is the behemoth Tianbao Pavilion.
"Then follow me and take control of the Changqing Pavilion."
The Purple King stood up and said.
All the powerful people gathered here this time are grandmasters, and there are several peak grandmasters among them.
And these are just the strong ones on the surface.
No force dares to underestimate the behemoth Tianbao Pavilion, otherwise the Dai Yue Kingdom would not share it with others and join forces with them.
Instead of Tianbao Pavilion enjoying it alone, it would be better for everyone to have a share!
Tieshan County was a barren place and unknown in Dai Viet. But suddenly, the name of Tieshan County spread throughout Dai Viet and then to the inner area.
Changqing Pavilion is in Tieshan County.
The Yunqi Pill was the cultivation elixir that Changqing Pavilion had researched! With the dispatch of the Tianyi Guard and Tianyu Guard of the Great Yue Kingdom, the Shenji Army blocked Tieshan County, and the eyes of the martial arts world were all gathered.
Many powerful people from top forces have come out to grab a piece of the pie.
Including Yan State and Ziyun State.
However, most of the forces outside of Dai Yue were blocked by Jianzun Ya.
The power of Jian Zun Ya was so great that even the strong men from Yan State and Ziyun State retreated a little, but not all strong men could stop it.
All the top powers sent out their top masters, and all of a sudden, all the top masters gathered in Lanping County of Dai Yue Kingdom.
Not to mention the Grandmaster warriors, even the great Grandmasters can only keep a low profile at this moment and dare not do anything arrogant.
“I didn’t expect that there would be so many top Grandmasters in the Inner Realm!”
"Hiss, this is the first time in a thousand years that so many top grandmasters have gathered together. Even if the Changqing Pavilion is destroyed, it will still be a legend."
"This is the first time in more than a thousand years since the dynasty collapsed that so many top grandmasters have gathered together to participate in an event!"
"The Qi Condensing Pill is really effective. No wonder all these top Grandmasters have appeared one after another. It is said that the two top Grandmasters who were rumored to have fallen in Yizhu Mountain have also appeared."
"It's just a Qi Condensation Pill, why make such a fuss?"
"You don't understand this. Since there is the Qi Condensation Pill, is there any pill that is more effective than the Qi Condensation Pill and suitable for Grandmasters to practice? Moreover, such a precious practice resource cannot continue to be controlled by Tianbao Pavilion."
A warrior said with a look as if he had seen through everything.
Tianbao Pavilion has infiltrated every aspect of the martial arts world. Although it does not interfere in internal disputes, all major forces have a thorn in their hearts.
And if the Qi Yundan, such a precious cultivation resource, continues to be exclusively enjoyed by Tianbao Pavilion, then the Tianbao Pavilion will truly have the final say in this inner domain.
Therefore, the Dai Viet Kingdom contacted all parties, and all major forces joined forces tacitly. As for the distribution plan, after taking over Changqing Pavilion, it can be distributed again based on the strength of each party.
