Chapter 053
Sure enough, not long after, a loud noise was heard, as if the formation on a peak had been broken.
A figure landed in Lin Qingyang's courtyard. He turned his head and said softly, "Second Senior Sister."
"Yeah." Wu Qinglian said calmly, "Don't be afraid. No one can break the formation here."
Cheng Hui thought about it for a while before realizing that she came specifically to comfort Lin Qingyang, and he felt a little amused and helpless.
Lin Qingyang smiled faintly and accepted his senior sister's concern.
"With Second Senior Sister here, I'm not afraid."
"Yeah." Wu Qinglian nodded, turned around and left. If you look closely, you will find that her ears are a little red.
Cheng Hui felt amused, thinking that everyone on the Thirteen Peaks was an acting genius, with two different faces to the outside world and to the inside. He didn't know how they did it.
After Wu Qinglian left, the Thirteen Peaks returned to peace.
Everyone probably knew that this was a tough nut to crack, and no one came to attack it again.
Wuyouzi and Zhang Yifan never came back. The battle lasted for several days. The servants in the peak went from being panic-stricken at the beginning to being calm no matter what noise came from outside.
On the fifth day, the internal battle within the sect finally came to an end.
The Xuanshi Sect won, but the Puppet Sect did not lose either.
The Puppet Sect had been preparing for this war for a long time and had arranged many things within the sect, but the Xuanshi Sect was not a pushover and had also made various countermeasures.
The current leader of the Corpse Puppet Sect is a neutral faction, and has been troubled by the dispute between the two factions for a long time. However, the fundamental difference in concepts and the hatred accumulated over thousands of years have made the hatred between the two factions deep-rooted and completely irreconcilable.
The leaders of all generations have tried to make the two factions live in harmony, but ultimately failed, and this generation is no exception.
This time, the Puppet Faction tried to seize the position of leader and even wanted to expel the Xuanshi Faction, but ultimately failed due to lack of strength.
But for the Puppet Faction, since they had already made preparations, they decisively withdrew from the sect after failing to compete for the position of the leader.
The headquarters of the Corpse Puppet Sect was transformed from an ancient battlefield. No matter whether it was a mysterious corpse or a puppet, they were still corpses after all. Naturally, there were many benefits to being able to practice here. The Puppet Sect originally wanted to occupy this place, but after failing, they took their men and directly defected to the Demonic Path, which made both the Xuanshi Sect and the Neutral Sect very angry.
There is even the shadow of the devil behind this rebellion. If the Xuanshi Sect and the Neutral Sect had not made preparations in advance, they might have succeeded.
For a full five days, the Puppet Faction used their huge number of puppets to cause great losses to the Corpse Puppet Sect. At least five mountains were collapsed, a large number of disciples and servants lost their lives, and even the Sutra Library was almost swept clean. It can be said that the Puppet Faction's move almost consumed all the accumulation of the Corpse Puppet Sect over hundreds of years.
When Wuyouzi brought Zhang Yifan back, he looked very angry. Although the Puppet Faction lost almost half of its men in order to successfully leave, in Wuyouzi's opinion, it was still too easy for them.
Since the Puppet Faction has broken out, it naturally can no longer be called the Corpse Puppet Sect in the future. They gave it a new name, the Demon Puppet Sect, and it was classified as part of the demonic realm.
The sect leader has spoken. From today on, the Corpse Puppet Sect and the Demon Puppet Sect are sworn enemies. Any disciple who goes out for training and encounters a member of the other sect will be killed without mercy!
"Disciple obeys your command." Lin Qingyang said respectfully.
Wuyouzi looked at the disciples sitting down and stroked his beard with satisfaction.
The struggles in the world of cultivation are ultimately about people. Although those idiots from the Demonic Puppet Sect took away the resources for the competition, half of their people died. They definitely won't be able to stir up trouble in the short term.
However, this time the Corpse Puppet Sect also suffered heavy losses. Losing a large amount of resources was the least of their worries. The most important thing was that some small worlds belonging to the Corpse Puppet Sect might have problems, especially those small worlds that had been controlled by the Puppet Sect in the past twenty years. They would almost certainly be plundered.
Wuyouzi sighed. With what the Puppet Sect had done, the sect would definitely be busy for a while, and many plans had been disrupted.
All resource points that were previously controlled by the Puppet Sect must be taken over again, and those small worlds that may be out of control must also be managed by people. Now the entire sect is in a mess, and almost all the disciples who have achieved success in cultivation have been sent out.
The disciples of the Thirteen Peaks are no exception. Whether it is Zhang Yifan or Wu Qinglian, they have all received the latest tasks assigned by the sect.
Wuyouzi was not worried about them. All of his disciples were carefully selected. They were the elite among the elites in every aspect. The tasks assigned to them by the sect might be a little difficult, but they could definitely be completed. What he was worried about now was what to do with his own little disciples.
"Master? Do you have anything else to tell me?" Lin Qingyang saw that Wuyouzi seemed to be hesitant to speak, so he asked directly.
Wuyouzi nodded and said, "Master is about to go to a small world on the verge of upgrading to guard it. It has been controlled by the Puppet Sect for twenty years, and they also hold the key to that small world. So, Master, I am afraid it will take a long time for him to return this time."
Lin Qingyang thought for a moment: "Master, are you worried that I won't have anyone to guide me?"
Wuyouzi nodded.
Lin Qingyang looked at Zhang Yifan beside him, and something dawned on him: "Big Brother is going out too?"
"Yes, your eldest senior brother is about to break through to the Golden Core stage. After he breaks through, he will have to go to a remote area to garrison. Your second senior sister and third senior brother will also need to go to some resource points to garrison, so..." Wuyouzi said distressedly.
The sect suffered heavy losses this time and had many personnel gaps. As the backbone of the Xuanshi Sect, Wuyouzi, in addition to his own strength, was also quite popular for his methods of training disciples, so each of his disciples had his own mission.
It didn't matter if they left, but what would Lin Qingyang do? He had only been practicing for less than a year, and his understanding of the Corpse Life Mysterious Luo Gong was only at the beginning. He could have stayed for various natural resources, but without the guidance of his predecessors, he was very worried that Lin Qingyang would take a detour on the road of cultivation.
Cultivation is not like writing on paper. If you make a mistake, you can just erase it. But once something goes wrong in cultivation, the consequences are extremely serious.
"Or, shall I go with my master?" Lin Qingyang also knew that this was related to his own cultivation, so he came up with a solution.
Wuyouzi shook his head. His safety was uncertain. Upgrading a small world was inherently dangerous, and the puppet faction had the key to that small world, allowing them to enter and exit it at any time. He even felt that he might be ambushed as soon as he entered. After all, that world had been controlled by the other party for many years, and they might have prepared traps in advance.
So he didn't dare to take the risk at all. If he brought Lin Qingyang in and ended up letting him die there, Wuyouzi would be so desperate that he would vomit to death.
As for following others, it is not very realistic. Wu Qinglian and Zhuang Rui are both relatively taciturn. It is okay to let them practice on their own, but letting them explain to others... hehe.
The place Zhang Yifan was going to guard was a mining area, which had many kinds of minerals and also a spirit stone mine. Originally, this was a good thing, as the area around the spirit stone mine was mostly rich in spiritual energy, which could effectively improve the efficiency of cultivation. However, the quality of that spirit stone mine was extremely low, and 90% of it was low-grade spirit stones. The spiritual energy contained in the spirit stones also contained a lot of impurities, making it not worth the effort to use it for cultivation.
Wuyouzi was uneasy about abandoning his young disciple to the Thirteen Peaks. Besides the lack of suitable relatives, he was also worried about the possibility of spies from the Puppet Clan within the sect. If they took advantage of his absence and killed his young disciple, he would cry.
After much deliberation, Wuyouzi finally had no choice but to send his apprentice to accompany Zhang Yifan. In addition to having Zhang Yifan help him solve the problems in his cultivation, he could also collect materials in the mining area.
He still remembered how much his little disciple valued his natal corpse. Refining the corpse required a large amount of materials, and there was no place more suitable than the mining area.
Zhang Yifan doesn't need to do anything, this is the hidden benefit of working in the mine.
A few days later, Lin Qingyang packed his bags, took Cheng Hui, and boarded the flying boat to the mining area.
Originally, they could have used the teleportation array, but unfortunately, during the war those days, the teleportation array was blown away. The sect leader was very angry, but there was nothing he could do. It would take many days to repair the teleportation array, and it was not easy to stop work at the mining area, so he had to let them use the flying boat to travel.
In addition to Zhang Yifan, there are also disciples from several other peaks on this trip. Lin Qingyang is just an incidental addition and does not take up their place.
Before leaving, Wuyouzi called Lin Qingyang over and gave him many instructions. He felt that he was an incompetent master, so in order to compensate this little apprentice, he gave him a lot of materials and a sum of spirit stones, and told him to spend them as he pleased, and to ask his senior brother for more if he had none.
Zhang Yifan: …? ? ?
It's definitely my real master..._(:з」∠)_
Lin Qingyang agreed with a smile, but he didn't intend to do so in his heart.
The spirit stones from the eldest senior brother were not obtained for free. If he really couldn't make ends meet, he would definitely not mind asking for help. However, he is only in the Qi Refining Stage now, and he doesn't need many spirit stones in total. There is no need to trouble the eldest senior brother for problems that he can solve himself.
Lin Qingyang looked at the spirit stone in the space ring that was as big as a small mountain, and smiled without saying a word.
Cheng Hui: ...
After getting on the flying boat, the group found their own rooms to rest. It was also Lin Qingyang's first time to travel far away, so he was very curious about this giant flying boat.
This giant flying boat is controlled by Feidu Villa, one of the Eight Left-Way Sects. Speaking of Feidu Villa, it is also a relatively special sect. Although they are one of the Eight Left-Way Sects, they are actually more inclined to the righteous path.
The disciples of Feidu Villa loved running businesses, and they had shops near almost every sect's headquarters. This giant flying boat was one of their specialties. The Xuanheng interface was vast, and those who wanted to travel far could either fly with a sword or ride a spirit beast. The former consumed a great deal of spiritual energy and was prone to being robbed along the way, while the latter...spiritual beasts capable of long-distance flight were rare.
Feidu Villa discovered the business opportunity and developed this giant flying boat. It flies along a fixed route and fighting is prohibited on the flying boat. Each flying boat is guarded by at least one cultivator in the late Jindan stage. As long as they don't encounter a Yuanying cultivator, they can basically keep the boat under control.
Of course, if there really were a Nascent Soul cultivator who shamelessly robbed people, the priests and elders of Feidu Villa would not be pushovers.
