In the world of immortality, any sect that has been inherited for more than thousands of years will take precautions and take advantage of the prosperity of the sect to arrange for some loyal disciples to pretend to die and go out to establish branches and hidden veins.

Most of the exercises and secret techniques practiced by the monks of these branches are different from those of the main sect, to prevent people from thinking about the relationship between the two.

Many times, except for a few core high-level people in the branch, other branch personnel will not know that the force they belong to is actually a branch of a large force.

At the same time, in order for the branch to develop smoothly and to prevent the branch from getting bigger and threatening the sect, the sect will support and suppress the branch.

For example, when the development of a branch is difficult, the sect will secretly provide resources or even directly send children of appropriate age.

And when a branch emerges with talented disciples, they will be recruited into the main sect to prevent the branch from growing bigger.

As for the hidden vein, as the name suggests, it is a very secret branch.

This branch is often passed down by a single lineage, or only a few people. Their cultivation resources are all supported by the sect, and they also practice the sect's martial arts and magical powers. It is an important part of being able to renew the sect's inheritance when necessary.

pulse.

For example, several branches of Qinglian Temple were all wiped out by Zhou Chun.

However, the most important inherited spiritual treasure of Qinglian Temple [Qinglian Transformation Armor] has never been seen. It is most likely that it was collected and preserved by the disciples of the Hidden Meridian.

And big forces like the Lunar Sect, which has a long history, will only secretly cultivate more branches.

As the leader of the Yuelun Sect, Master Baiyue is one of the few people in the Yuelun Sect who knows how to contact the offshoot monks.

At this time, after receiving instructions from Master Yin Yue, he immediately summoned a close confidant and handed several autographed letters into his hands, asking him to send them to the heads of several branches.

There are special restrictions on such autographed letters, and only those in charge of those branches know how to use the correct method to unlock them.

Soon after, several leaders of the branch of Yuelun Sect who received the letter from Master Baiyue quietly sneaked into Jingguo with their masters and met in a wilderness in Lanzhou.

These people didn't know each other before, but after meeting them now, they compared their tokens and realized that the other person was a monk from the branch of the Moon Wheel Sect just like themselves.

"Senior Brother Hongye, you have the highest cultivation level. You will be the leader of this trip. We will all just follow your command."

In the wilderness of the barren mountains, an old man with a horse-faced face and an early stage of Jindan cultivation showed his kindness to another old man in red robes with a flattering face.

Although they are both branch leaders of the Yuelun Sect, there is obviously a huge gap between him who cultivated in the early stage of Jindan and the red-robed old man who cultivated in the later stage of Jindan.

The latter can still stand up straight and talk even in front of Master Baiyue, the leader of this sect.

What's more, their lineage has been in bad luck in the past thousand years. He was able to successfully form the elixir thanks to the sect's spared efforts to help. Now there is no one among the younger generation who can take over, which makes him even less confident.

"Junior Brother Song, you're welcome. We all work for our sect. As long as we can complete the tasks assigned by our sect well, it doesn't matter who takes command."

The old man in red robe said in a calm tone, not showing much expression to the horse-faced old man's flattery.

It is true that with his cultivation level, he can fully withstand the flattery and compliments of the horse-faced old man.

But after all, the horse-faced old man and he are the masters of the same lineage. In theory, the status of both parties is the same. If he really treats the other party as a subordinate and sends it to the sect, it is difficult to say that the master of worshiping the moon is the sect.

What would the Headmaster think? What would Master Yin Yue think?

So even though he was very impressed by the horse-faced old man's words in his heart, he still couldn't speak the truth.

In addition to the red-robed old man and the horse-faced old man present, there was another woman in blue, who was also the master of the same lineage and had a middle-stage golden elixir cultivation level.

These three people and the several capable disciples they brought with them are all the branch personnel that the Moon Wheel Sect has summoned to carry out destruction this time.

At this time, after a polite discussion between the three of them, more than ten people, led by the red-robed old man "Hongye Sanren", followed the map and headed towards the entrance of the underground waterway.

Of course, the underground river that leads directly from Lanzhou to Longyuanze cannot have only the entrance to the water pool discovered by the Zhou family.

In fact, after hundreds of years of excavation and exploration, the Zhou family alone discovered several water channels that lead directly to underground rivers in Lanzhou.

Relying on the information provided by the spies, the Moon Wheel Sect, through exploration and excavation by the Golden Core monks, re-dug a secret entrance leading directly to the underground river.

At this time, Hongye Sanren and his party entered the underground river through this secret entrance, and then went straight down the river towards Longyuan Ze.

Among the group of people, the woman in blue was practicing water-based skills. She commanded a water-carrying flying boat to carry everyone all the way. They arrived at Longyuan Ze in less than half a day.

Hongye Sanren then used a Thousand Miles Communication Talisman to directly contact the elders of the Moon Lun Sect lurking here, and under his leadership, they directly found the Zhou family's Caiyu Mountain stronghold.

After bringing the people to the location in this way, the Yuelun Sect elder separated from Hongye Sanren and his group.

Hongye Sanren and others took action together and directly launched a fierce attack on the Caiyu Mountain stronghold.

Today, the Zhou family has deployed two to three hundred people in the wilderness. Most of them have lived and grown up here since they were young. It can be said that they have regarded this place as their hometown.

However, although there are many people, most of them are monks in the Qi training stage, there are less than ten monks in the foundation building stage, and there is only one monk in the Zifu stage.

It turns out that before Zhou Yuanlian left the Yuan Demon Realm, there were still golden elixir-level monks stationed here.

But now there is only one Zifu period monk left to play the leading role.

Of course, the reason for this is not only because the Zhou family is now so big that it is difficult for the elders of the golden elixir stage to come over, but it is also related to the fact that Zhou Chun's incarnation is practicing in the ice cave.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At this time, the stronghold was suddenly besieged by Hongye Sanren and others, and the mountain defense formation soon began to shake violently.

Because there has never been a particularly outstanding formation master, the mountain-protecting formation at the Caiyu Mountain stronghold has not been strengthened in any way over the years.

Under normal conditions, it is not a big problem to withstand the attacks of two or three early-stage Jindan monks, or one or two fourth-level monsters.

But now there are three Golden Core monks besieging the stronghold, including a late Golden Core monk and a middle Golden Core monk.

This kind of attack intensity has exceeded the upper limit that the mountain guarding formation can handle.

Therefore, when Zhou Yuanliang, a monk from the Zhou family's Zifu period who was stationed at the Caiyu Mountain stronghold, discovered that the enemy was powerful, he hurriedly ordered all the monks in the stronghold to go to various formations to assist him in maintaining the formation.

Thousand-mile communication talisman.

In order to prevent the communication talisman from being intercepted and to show that the situation was critical, he specially activated all three Thousand Miles Communication Talisman in his hand from three directions.

But in fact, he himself felt a little desperate about the arrival of reinforcements.

With his status, he was not qualified enough to know who he was seeking help from.

When the previous stationed monk handed over the communication talisman to him, he only said that after activating the communication talisman, a powerful family elder level would come to his aid as soon as possible.

And with the powerful strength displayed by the powerful enemies outside the stronghold at this time, the mountain guarding formation may not be able to sustain it for an hour!

Despite this, he still dutifully shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone, please listen to me. The enemy is very powerful. If there is no stronghold to protect you, even if you can escape after the stronghold is broken, it will definitely be difficult for you."

To survive in the wilderness, it’s best to put away those thoughts that you shouldn’t have and work together to get through this disaster!”

"And don't panic too much. I have already asked the family elders for help. Family elders will come to the rescue soon!"

But he knew in his heart that many of the monks in these strongholds had been secretly resentful towards the Zhou family because they were trapped here.

If you don't explain the situation clearly to them at this time, once they act stupidly, it will only bring trouble to everyone!

Let’s not talk about whether Zhou Yuanliang’s words had any effect, but Hongye Sanren and others immediately felt a sense of urgency after seeing the flames of the Thousand Miles Communication Talisman flying out of the stronghold.

After all, the current Zhou family can be said to have strong soldiers and horses, and the top experts cannot even compare with their own sect.

They no longer even dared to suppress the Zhou family openly, and could only secretly let branch monks like them come over to destroy the Zhou family's industrial resources.

If this Thousand Mile Communication Talisman is sent out and the person who receives it is Zhou Chun, the head of the Zhou family, then it won’t take too long to come from Jingguo at the speed of a Nascent Soul Stage monk.

And if they cannot break the stronghold and retreat in time, they may all be buried in the wilderness!

Therefore, Hongye Sanren quickly sent a message to everyone with a serious look on his face and shouted: "Don't bother searching anymore, use whatever tricks you have, whatever you use today, our sect will naturally double it and replenish it for me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he took out two fourth-level talismans and activated the mountain-protecting formation at the Caiyu Mountain stronghold one after another.

Inspired by his leadership, the horse-faced old man and the woman in blue also took out their talismans and stepped up their offensive.

Inside the stronghold, when Zhou Yuanliang saw this scene, his face suddenly turned pale. He felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart, and his eyes were full of despair.

On the other side, the Thousand Miles Communication Talisman sent out by Zhou Yuanliang soon fell into the hands of Zhou Chun.

After reading the content of the Qianli Communication Talisman, Zhou Chun's body in the Qinglian Mountains quickly learned that the Caiyu Mountain stronghold was attacked by human monks.

"How brave!"

In the cave, Zhou Chun's face darkened, and his heart was filled with rage.

A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he immediately let his avatar rush to the Caiyu Mountain stronghold as quickly as possible for rescue.

The ice cave that houses the Ice Moon Toad is not far from the Caiyu Mountain stronghold.

At Zhou Chun's speed, it only takes half an hour at full speed to arrive.

Therefore, when his incarnation arrived near the Caiyu Mountain stronghold, the stronghold's mountain-protecting formation was not completely broken.

And the arrival of his incarnation quickly attracted the attention of Hongye Sanren.

"No, the person coming is a late-stage Jindan monk!"

Relying on his own experience and knowledge, Hongye Sanren immediately recognized the approximate cultivation level of the incoming person through the speed and momentum of the white escaping light without the need for spiritual detection, and then issued a warning with a changed expression.

After hearing his warning, the expressions of the other personnel changed drastically, knowing that they were in big trouble.

A late-stage Jindan cultivator, perhaps Hongye Sanren can hold him back for a while.

But everyone knows that the Zhou family has inherited the skills of beast control.

Who knows if this unidentified late-stage Jindan cultivator has a fourth-level monster spirit pet?

The situation did not allow them to think too much, so Zhou Chun quickly flew to the battlefield.

He didn't bother to talk nonsense with Hongye Sanren and others, he just raised his hand and patted the spirit beast bag on his waist, and four four-winged [Six-winged Ice Silkworms] flew out together, turning into four almost invisible white streaks.

The phantom flew towards the enemy.
