Chapter 242 Return to the front
Chapter 242 – Returning to the Frontline
The Xuan Yu Square Market was located in the central part of the Jiang Kingdom, with a favorable geographical location, where the Xuan Yu Guan held the Xuan Yu Dharma Fairs, attracting a large number of cultivators to attend.
In a secluded green tiled courtyard, Xu Yang, Lin Yutong and Wei Tianming sat around a green colored stone table, sipping tea and chatting.
“It’s a pity that Daolord Shen didn’t come, this Xuan Yu Dharma Meeting, we made quite a few friends and exchanged quite a few good things.”
Lin Yutong said in a tone of regret.
“I think that Fellow Daoist Shen was too stubborn and had to stay in the Green Hulk Market, wasting his time for nothing, but then again, the frontline is about to have a big showdown, right!”
Wei Tian Ming said.
“It’s probably soon! It’s not a solution for us to stay here all the time, if we can’t find the barbarian cultivators, we just don’t have any credit, and it’s a waste of time.”
Xu Yang frowned and said.
Searching for barbarian cultivators in the great backwaters was simply a waste of time, not an inch of credit had been gained.
“Let’s go back to the workshop and mention this matter to Daoyou Shen! Fairy Lin, I see that Fellow Daoist Shen is closer to you, so persuade him that there’s no need to be stubborn.”
Wei Tian Ming said.
“Fellow Daoist Wei, don’t be ridiculous, Fellow Daoist Shen and I are just ordinary friends.”
Lin Yutong frowned and said.
“I know it’s a friend, anyway, you persuade him more, I said before that I wouldn’t go against him if I lost to him.”
Wei Tian Ming said.
Lin Yutong was about to reply when Xu Yang took out a golden summoning disk and punched in a spell, Shen Long’s voice rang out, “Senior Brother Xu, where are you guys? I’m now at the exit of Xuan Yu Fang City, if you guys don’t have anything to do, meet up at the exit and let’s head to Rejecting Barbarians City!”
“Leaving the Jiang Kingdom? Why so suddenly?”
Xu Yang was surprised.
“I’ll explain it to you on the way, you guys come over right away!”
Shen Long urged.
“Alright! We’ll go over right now.”
Xu Yang agreed and put away the summoning disk.
“It looks like something big has happened, it might be that the battle at the frontline is getting tight and we are told to go to the frontline for support.”
Lin Yutong guessed.
“Probably! Let’s go over and meet up with Senior Brother Shen!”
Xu Yang said, and the three of them left the small courtyard.
They arrived at the exit of the workshop and saw Shen Long.
After Shen Long and Qin Yunyan escaped from the Qin family’s ancestral land, Qin Yunyan kept his promise and gave Shen Long a lotus seed of the Taixuan Jade Lotus, and Shen Long said goodbye and left.
He didn’t dare to stay in the Jiang Country for a long time, not for fear of running into barbarian cultivators, but other people’s cultivators.
If other JieDan cultivators knew that Shen Long had the lotus seed of Taixuan Jade Lotus on his body, they might be moved to kill, and wealth moved the heart.
There is a sky beyond the sky, there are people beyond the people, Shen Long faced the siege of two JieDan Great Perfection this time, if he did not utilize the Soul Extinguishing Talisman to severely damage Wu Sang’s divine soul, and let the Ice Jiao and Iron Tailed Scorpion to pester Wu Sang, there was no way for Shen Long to get out of the situation.
Purple Spider Superior had a spiritual treasure, Shen Long had no way to harden himself against the spiritual treasure, and being able to get away was already very good.
Golden-winged fire ants lost a small half, the loss of five Golden-winged fire ants of the third rank is still acceptable.
He planned to leave the Jiang Country as soon as possible and head to Rejecting Barbarians City now.
Not long after, Lin Yutong’s trio came over.
“Let’s go! Let’s head to Barbarians Rejecting City! I’ll tell you guys more slowly on the way.”
After Shen Long said this, he turned around and walked out.
Lin Yutong and the three of them looked at each other and followed.
After leaving the marketplace, Shen Long sacrificed the sea-spanning boat and walked up, and Lin Yutong’s three people followed.
“Go!”
Shen Long let out a soft shout, and with a spell, the sea-spanning boat suddenly lit up with an eye-catching blue light and flew towards the high sky, and soon disappeared.
More than three months later, they rushed to Rejecting Barbarians City.
On the way, Shen Long briefly talked about what happened, but he didn’t mention Tai Xuan Jade Lotus, just said that he was worried that the frontline battle was tight and he needed help, which is why he rushed to the frontline.
“Finally arrived at Rejecting Barbarians City!”
Wei Tian Ming breathed a sigh of relief, his face showing joy.
“Fellow Daoist Wei and Fairy Lin, make yourselves at home! We’re going to the Royal Spirit Garden to report to Uncle Liu.”
Shen Long said.
Wei Tianming and Lin Yutong nodded and separated from Shen Long.
Shen Long and Xu Yang arrived at the Imperial Spirit Garden and smoothly met Liu Zian and briefly reported what had happened.
“Senior nephew Shen, has your bottleneck not been resolved yet?”
Liu Zian asked with concern.
“Not yet, but when I fought with the JieDan Great Perfection, under the life and death situation, I vaguely felt that the bottleneck was somewhat loosened, perhaps if I fight with the Barbarian Great Perfection again, I will be able to dissolve the bottleneck!”
Shen Long said.
“In that case, then you will participate in the duel! We intend to duel with the Barbarians, after fighting for so long, our losses are not small, Fellow Daoist Lu doesn’t want to drag on.”
Liu Zian said.
“Yes, Master Liu.”
Shen Long agreed.
Liu Zian barked a few words and let Shen Long and Xu Yang retreat.
Shen Long came to the Hall of Common Affairs, took out the barbarian’s body, and handed it to Qi Shan for verification.
The barbarian cultivator’s body had the art of totem, which was easy to recognize, and there would be quite a few things unique to the barbarians in his storage bag.
Qi Shan verified that it was correct and allocated a large sum of good deeds to Shen Long.
“Fellow Daoist Qi, has the Third Order Spirit Flame been exchanged?”
Shen Long asked.
“Not yet, Fellow Daoist Shen wants to exchange the Third Order Spirit Flame?” Qi Shan asked.
Shen Long nodded and said, “That’s right, I have enough good deeds.”
He had gone to the rear to carry out a mission and killed a number of JieDan stage barbarians, and together with the barbarian cultivators he had killed before, he had already gathered enough good merit to exchange for the third-stage Spirit Flame.
Qi Shan took the nameplate from Shen Long’s hand and put it on a golden flashing magic disk, and a flash of eye-catching golden light lit up.
Shen Long’s accumulated good deeds were almost consumed, and he finally exchanged a cloud of third-order spirit flame.
“This is the third-order spirit flame, Fellow Daoist Shen inspect it.”
Qi Shan took out a green jade bottle and handed it to Shen Long.
Shen Long peeled off the stopper of the bottle, and a golden flame flew out from it, emitting a shockingly high temperature.
The green jade bottle spewed out a green haze, covered the golden flame, and rolled it into the green jade bottle.
“Not bad!”
Shen Long’s face showed joy.
The Red Lotus True Flame would be more powerful and the more efficient the alchemy would be when it refined this third-order spirit flame.
After chatting for a few moments, Shen Long excused himself and left.
When he passed a corner, a familiar woman’s voice sounded, “Fellow Daoist Shen, long time no see.”
Shen Long followed the source of the voice to see that Mu Weiwei walked face to face with a smile on her face.
“Long time no see, Fairy Mu.”
Shen Long opened his mouth to greet.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, I got an item that you definitely like, let’s talk somewhere else?”
Mu Weiwei said.
Shen Long nodded and brought Mu Weiwei to a teahouse and asked for an elegant room.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Mu Weiwei took out an exquisite green jade box and handed it to Shen Long.
Shen Long opened the jade box, and with a sweep of his eyes, he was surprised, “Five-colored Jade Chi Fruit!”
“That’s right, I don’t need to say more about the efficacy of this fruit! Fellow Daoist Shen, knowing that you are interested in repelling insects and beasts, I spent a high price to get a Five-colored Jade Chi Fruit.”
Mu Weiwei said.
“Fairy Mu name your price!”
Shen Long said.
“A close friend of mine has been poisoned by fire and is still unable to get out of bed, I don’t know if Fellow Daoist Shen has a top-grade elixir that cures fire poisoning?”
Mu Weiwei said.
Shen Long smiled faintly, took out a white jade box, handed it to Mu Weiwei, and said, “These are two Ice and Snow Pills, which have a very good effect in curing fire poison.”
Mu Weiwei opened the jade box, there were two snow-white pills inside, each pill had nine Dan lines, she showed joy and said, “Thank you, fellow Daoist Shen.”
After chatting for a while, Mu Weiwei excused herself and left.
Returning to his residence, Shen Long walked into the practice room and activated the prohibition.
He took out a green jade bottle, peeled off the cork, a golden flame flew out, violently condensed, and transformed into a golden fire bird.
A golden flying knife shot out and cut the golden fire bird in half, transforming into a large golden flame, the golden flame quickly gathered and transformed into a golden fire bird again, the golden flying knife cut it in half again.
After repeating several times, the golden flame recovery speed slowed down.
Shen Long opened his mouth and a green-red fire bird flew out from it and pounced on the golden flame.
The green-red fire bird quickly ate the golden flame, and its body rolled in mid-air and transformed into a three-colored orb, which was collected by Shen Long.
Shen Long took out multiple storage bags, the mouth of the bag was facing down, and violently shook, a haze of light swept by, and a large pile of extra things appeared on the ground, since the start of the war, he killed dozens of JieDan cultivators, and obtained quite a few materials, and the spirit stones alone exceeded a million.
He categorized the things on the ground and put them away, sitting on his knees.
——
Skywolf City, Skywolf Hall.
Zhe Sen sat on the main seat, his gaze fixed.
Gu Bing, Gu Hong, and the other thirty-odd YuanYing cultivators sat on the two sides with different expressions.
“We can’t drag this out any longer, we have to have a showdown with the Human Race, exterminate some more YuanYing cultivators before the Human Race will make peace with us.”
Zhe Sen said with a frown.
The Human Race had mobilized the power of eighteen nations, the Barbarians had mobilized the power of the ten tribes, the Human Race had far more high level cultivators than the Barbarians, the war had lasted for seven years, the Barbarians were overwhelmed and could not drag on any longer.
“Easy to say, if it was so easy to exterminate more YuanYing cultivators, we wouldn’t have fallen multiple YuanYing cultivators.”
Zhuo Shan was unimpressed.
“This time, I’ve enlisted the help of my fellow Daoists from the Witch Clan, and there will be a group of Witch Clan cultivators who will step in to help.”
Zhuo Sen explained.
“The Sorcerer Race would be so kind? Sending YuanYing cultivators to help us against the human race?”
Zhuo Shan questioned.
Before this, there were some Witch Race cultivators who appeared in the battlefield, the highest was only a JieDan cultivator, and now the Witch Race’s YuanYing cultivator came down to deal with the Human Race’s cultivators, it was really strange.
“I’ve contacted Taoist Friend Wu of the Golden Crow Tribe, he has no problem with it, the Witch Race intends to send people into the Burial Immortal Mound to search for treasures, they need us to provide help, we agreed, in return, they help against the Human Race.”
Zhe Sen explained.
“Since Daoist Friend Wu of the Golden Crow Tribe is fine with it, then that’s it!”
Haidou Li deeply agreed.
“I also have no opinion.”
Hosun agreed.
All the cultivators had no opinion, they were now only seeking to quickly repel the Human Race’s attack.
Seeing this, Zhuo Shan couldn’t object anymore.
Zhe Sen nodded and gave an order, and a large number of barbarian cultivators mobilized, transporting supplies and preparing for the big showdown.
