After the Five Elements Sect's water and fire factions surrendered, the all-conquering Yan Kingdom army was suddenly stopped at the border of the Ming Kingdom.

Suddenly, the reputation of Duan Shuyu, who was at the height of his power, suffered a setback, and he was even impeached in the court.

But this is mainly because the Shenmu Sect and the Five Elements Sect have not yet reached an agreement.

Jiang Zongheng personally went to the front line to negotiate with Chun Yusu, the head of the Five Elements Sect, on behalf of Chen Mobai.

At the beginning, Chunyusu's attitude was very firm. Unless the Shenmu Sect returned the territory of the six countries, and also returned the two elders of Nujiang Sheng Zhaoxi who were "captured" by the Shenmu Sect, there would be no discussion.

Jiang Zongheng did not respond to such conditions.

Since the Five Elements Sect still can’t let go and cannot recognize the reality, let’s give it a beating first.

The ordinary army, even if the Ming Dynasty was ten times stronger, could not stop Duan Shuyu, a peerless general.

With Jiang Zongheng's order, Duan Shuyu was like a tiger emerging from the cage and quickly captured most of the territory of the Ming Dynasty. In just one month, he drove his army to the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

At this place, the army was stopped.

Because the monks from the Five Elements Sect's earth line took action.

Under this situation, Jiang Zongheng also personally came to the frontline battlefield, summoned the immortal cultivators from the four mountains and five mountains who had surrendered to the Shenmu Sect, and launched another cultivator war.

Although Zhou Ye possesses the Hunyuan Five Elements Extermination Divine Thunder, this is the only thing that can make the Shenmu Sect worry about now.

In order to maintain this deterrence, Zhou Ye must not leave Hunyuan Immortal City.

Without even taking action to form pills, the number and strength of the Five Elements Sect's earth-line monks were slightly inferior to Taishi Jiang's.

This was because Chen Mobai was not so ruthless and did not want to give Zhou Ye the possibility of taking away the family fortune that he had accumulated for decades, so he did not send the foundation-building monks from the Shenmu Sect over.

Except Jiang Zongheng.

Because this disciple is the key to the frontline connection, without him, there would be no way to recruit so many monks willing to help Shenmu Sect.

Jiang Zongheng took the initiative to ask for help. Although Chen Mobai could stop him, he knew that this was where the disciple's Taoist heart was. If he did not complete it, it would be impossible to overcome the inner demon formation.

After agreeing, Chen Mobai gave Jiang Zongheng a small teleportation talisman and a fourth-level spiritual leaf talisman infused with his own spiritual power.

Because Chen Mobai had only heard about the power of the Hunyuan Five Elements Exterminating Divine Thunder, so he didn't know if these talismans were useful, but they were the best life-saving things he could give.

The reason why Jiang Zongheng decided to take the risk personally was because he saw it very clearly.

Knowing that the Ming Dynasty is the only and biggest obstacle to unifying the Eastern Wasteland, the sooner it is resolved, the better.

The key to the Ming Dynasty was Zhou Ye.

As long as he was still in Hunyuan Immortal City, no alchemy monks from the Shenmu Sect would dare to step into the territory of the Ming Kingdom.

If he could use his own life to have a son-in-law with Zhou Ye, a pill-forming monk, Jiang Zongheng would be willing to sacrifice his life for the unprecedented cause of unification.

Obviously, Jiang Zongheng’s portion was not enough.

Before the capital of the Ming Dynasty, the immortal cultivators from both sides formed a battle formation. Without the assistance of the foundation-building cultivators of the Shenmu Sect, the strength gap between the two sides was not very large.

But as time went by, more and more monks came to help Jiang Zongheng.

Soon, most of the immortal-cultivating families and sects in the Eastern Wasteland sent people to Taishi Jiang's tent. Immortal-cultivators from Huitian Valley and Chuixue Palace even traveled thousands of miles to serve as their guide.

Under such circumstances, the large formation jointly arranged by the Five Elements Sect Earth Lines only lasted for three months before being completely destroyed.

After the Ming Dynasty was defeated, Jiang Zongheng gained the upper hand and once again led his army of immortal cultivators to occupy the Five Elements Sect's most critical medium-sized spiritual stone mine.

The Five Elements Sect has two medium-sized spirit stone mines, one of which is in Yan State and is guarded by Sheng Zhaoxi.

The other one is in the Ming Kingdom, and it is also the largest source of spiritual stones in the entire Hunyuan Immortal City.

Although the Five Elements Sect has accumulated a lot of spiritual stones in stock over the years, in order to prepare for war, the fourth-level formation needs to be activated on a regular basis.

This kind of consumption is estimated to last for about twenty years at most.

This incident also made the Five Elements Sect Tumai understand something!

The tide is over!

However, they had been defeated in a head-on confrontation, and now they only had the power to defend the city. Chun Yusu simply did not dare to lead the territorial monks to the location of the spirit stone mine.

Unless Zhou Ye takes action!

But faced with Jiang Zongheng's death-defying behavior, this alchemy monk from the Five Elements Sect remained indifferent, extremely cautious, and did not leave the city.

One month later, Jiang Zongheng sent another letter to negotiate with Na Chunyusu.

At this time, Chun Yusu's attitude was completely different.

The only requirement is to maintain the independence of the Ming Kingdom, and the Six Kingdoms and the Water and Fire Lines will be ceded. Even if they are willing to let them take back the medium-sized spiritual stone mine in the Ming Kingdom, the rest can be ceded.

But now it's Jiang Zongheng's turn.

He asked the Five Elements Sect Tumai to cede Hunyuan Immortal City and even the entire Ming Kingdom. In exchange, he would allow them to leave the Eastern Wasteland on the teleportation array.

That means I want them all!

Chun Yusu was so angry that he overturned the table.

The stalemate lasted for another two months. As long as the monks from Hunyuan Immortal City left the city, no one could come back.

Even the medium-sized teleportation array in the fairy city can still operate, but all the markets that can be teleported are controlled by the Shenmu Sect, and they are unable to purchase the spiritual rice and other materials needed by the monks.

Although there are no spiritual rice, bigu pills or the like, it can only last for a few years at most.

Chunyusu has never regretted so much. Why not stock up on Bigu Pills? One spiritual stone can buy a whole bottle of this stuff.

There are still two secret teleportation formations as a retreat, but most of the Eastern Wasteland has been captured by the Shenmu Sect. Even if their Five Elements Sect soil lineage can leave the Hunyuan Immortal City, they will end up in these places.

But even so, Chun Yusu still sent out men, hoping to escape the pursuit of the Shenmu Sect, enter the territory of Huitian Valley, purchase enough Bigu Pills, and prepare for a protracted war.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But reality soon gave Chunyusu a blow in the head.

One of his direct disciples, Feng Zicheng, went to surrender to Jiang Zongheng after leaving in the teleportation array.

Later, Hunyuan Immortal City had two teleportation arrays outside the city, but one was blocked.

Under this situation, Chun Yusu did not dare to use the other teleportation array.

Because he felt that since Feng Zicheng could betray, then no one else could trust him anymore.

The desperate situation forced him to look for Zhou Ye again.

Doesn't Chun Yusu know that he no longer has any bargaining chips when facing Jiang Zongheng?

But without Zhou Ye’s nod of approval, it doesn’t count if he agreed.

After three trips a day and half a month, Chun Yusu finally got a letter written by Zhou Ye himself.

Later, this letter was personally delivered to Beiyuan City by Jiang Zongheng.

After Chen Mobai read it, he handed it to the disciple next to him casually.

Jiang Zongheng took it respectfully with both hands and saw what was written on it.

[Please invite Master Chen to come to Hunyuan Immortal City to talk about it!]

After Jiang Zongheng read it, he only said: "Master, with a body of ten thousand gold, you must not take risks personally. If you have any requests, I am willing to go to Hunyuan Immortal City to convey them to you!"

After the two veins of water and fire returned to the Shenjing Muzong, Zhou Ye no longer had any means of turning the tables.

The reason why he can still sit safely in the Hunyuan Immortal City now is simply because of the Hunyuan Five Elements Exterminating Divine Thunder.

Jiang Zongheng felt that the huge gap between the Five Elements Sect and the Shenmu Sect might lead Zhou Ye to do irrational things.

What kind of identity is Chen Mobai, who has led the Shenmu Sect to the top, and may even surpass the existence of the Hunyuan Ancestor.

Even if there is only one chance in ten thousand, Master's life cannot be left in Zhou Ye's hands.

"This is one of my puppet incarnations. I can divert my mind into it. You can take it to Hunyuan Immortal City."

Chen Mobai took out the phaseless puppet that he had prepared long ago and handed it to Jiang Zongheng. The latter's eyes lit up when he heard it. He never expected that there would be such a mysterious puppet.

You know, here in the East Wasteland, the farther away the operator is from the puppet, the stiffer the puppet becomes. Therefore, when a puppet master generally fights, if he wants to unleash the peak power of the puppet, the real body must be hidden nearby.

It was precisely because of this that Nan Shidao was killed by Mo Douguang with a sword on the battlefield.

This is the first time Jiang Zongheng has heard of something like the phaseless doll that can still function normally despite being separated from almost the entire Eastern Wasteland.

After Jiang Zongheng left, Chen Mobai met another person.

Ye Bogui from Huitian Valley came here to deliver the elixir.

"Meet Master Chen!"

In the past, during Chen Mobai's elixir formation ceremony, Ye Bogui's representative came back to Tiangu to celebrate, and he could be regarded as familiar with Chen Mobai.

"We haven't seen each other for many years. Master Nephew Ye has also completed his foundation building. Maybe he can become our Taoist friends in the near future."

Unexpectedly, after listening to Chen Mobai's words, Ye Bogui smiled bitterly, shook his head, and told a story about his past.

"I don't dare to hide it from Master Chen. I took the Golden Liquid Jade Return Pill ten years ago. The pill formation failed, but I was lucky enough to survive."

After listening to Ye Bogui's words, Chen Mobai also remembered the furnace of gold liquid jade returning elixir that helped him form the elixir, and the elixir was divided into four pills.

Shenmu Zong divided two pills, and he and Chu Zuoshu took them.

Of the two pills from Huitiangu, I only heard that He Jintong used one, but there has been no news about the other pill.
