A group of sect monks from Jinyun Valley were ambushed by immortal cultivators from the enemy country while exploring the territory of Feng Kingdom.

The number of ambushing immortal cultivators was three times that of Jinyun Valley, and the leader was in the late stage of foundation construction.

At that time, the team of dozens of monks were intercepted from front to back, and almost all of them were wiped out. None of the three foundation-building monks who led the team returned.

Lin Lu was unfortunate to be among that group of monks.

Zhao Siyao described in the letter: Lin Lu did not die on the spot. With the help of high-quality escape talismans, he managed to break out of the encirclement for a short distance, but was chased by Overhaul in the later stage of foundation building.

After that battle, Lin Lu did not return and disappeared on the Fengguo battlefield.

Zhang Tieshan searched for it afterwards and made many inquiries, but found no news.

Lu Changan sighed secretly, this situation can be described as extremely dangerous.

A man with ordinary strength in the middle stage of foundation building was trapped in the enemy's territory during the Immortal Cultivation War and was hunted down and surrounded.

If you don’t come back in the short term, you’ll basically never come back.

From a personal perspective, Lu Changan felt sorry, even a little bit of pity.

After all, he is the junior who has been filial to me for so many years.

But if you look at it from a neutral perspective, or from the perspective of a cultivator in the Feng Kingdom, this matter does not deserve sympathy.

Because the Liang Kingdom clan, and even Lin Lu, were on the side of the invaders.

"How is the situation on the Fengguo battlefield today?"

Lu Changan said thoughtfully.

He has always been more concerned about the overall situation of the world of immortality.

Even if Zhao Siyao knew the specific information on the battlefield, it would be difficult to disclose it in a letter.

At the end of the letter, Zhao Siyao said that it was not convenient for him to leave the sect and hoped that Lu Changan would go to Jinyun Valley.

From this, Lu Changan speculated that Zhao Siyao was on the list of the second batch of sects to go out for the expedition, and had entered a "locked" state of combat readiness, making it difficult for him to leave Jinyun Valley easily.

Lu Changan was inevitably a little worried about this female nun who had known each other for more than a hundred years and trusted each other.

On the battlefield of cultivating immortals, strength is only one aspect of whether you can protect yourself.

The overall situation of the battlefield and luck are all important factors.

…

On the second day after receiving the letter, Lu Changan left Wuqi Mountain in a low-key manner and flew to the west of Liang Kingdom.

Seven or eight days later.

Lu Changan stepped on the green light and arrived at the gate of Jinyun Valley.

Compared to the past, the atmosphere in Jinyun Valley was more solemn, and most of the sect monks coming and going had anxious expressions.

After notification.

Zhao Siyao greeted him from the mountain gate.

The mountain breeze blew her white dress, outlining her plump and graceful figure.

Zhao Siyao looks about twenty-seven or eighty years old. She wears a phoenix hairpin on her head, has picturesque features, and is elegant and refined.

Compared with previous years, even when I first entered the foundation building, I looked more elegant and calm.

"Friend Lu Dao, you are here."

"Fellow Daoist Zhao."

The two looked at each other, nodded and smiled, without excessive greetings or courtesy.

Lu Changan and Zhao Siyao flew side by side and entered the latter's cave.

There is a lotus pond in the middle of the cave, which is fragrant and fragrant, and is surrounded by pavilions and waterside pavilions.

"Friend Lu Dao, would you please come over this time?"

Zhao Siyao dismissed her maid, behaved generously, and took the mountain spring water flowing through the cave to brew a pot of spiritual tea for Lu Changan.

The two chatted for a while, and they inevitably mentioned that Lin Lu was trapped in the battlefield of Feng Kingdom, and felt very regretful.

Judging from the available intelligence information, Lin Lu narrowly escaped death.

Even if you are lucky enough to survive, you will most likely be captured alive and the end will not be much better.

…

Afterwards, Lu Changan went straight to the point and asked about the situation on the Fengguo battlefield.

Zhao Siyao pondered: "Two years ago, the sect of the Liang Kingdom called on all major forces, and the first army of monks invaded the Feng Kingdom from south to north and from the rear. In the early days of the war, the Feng Kingdom fought on two sides and was overwhelmed, and the cultivating forces in the rear were defeated one after another.

…”

The first part of the story is known to monks who pay attention to the battlefield.

Liang Guo's expedition went relatively smoothly, occupying the spiritual land of the fairy city and plundering many resources.

Some good news came one after another, which was encouraging.

"However, the Feng Kingdom has a vast territory and numerous immortal cultivating forces, and its foundation is not comparable to that of the Liang Kingdom. When the first army of monks penetrated deeper into the territory of the Feng Kingdom, they faced great resistance.

"If the enemy's cultivating forces are defeated from the front, they will adopt a strategy of fortifying the wall and clearing the country. Liang's monk army is often attacked in the belly, encounters an ambush, or is attacked by cultivators at their rear strongholds..."

Zhao Siyao's voice was clear and pleasant, but her tone became serious.

"When a small country invades a big country, there is also a gap in the foundation of the civilization that cultivates immortals."

Lu Changan thought to himself, not surprised by the current situation.

The territory of Feng State was much larger than that of Yan State and Liang State combined.

The strategic depth is very broad.

Inheriting heritage and fighting locally are the advantages of Fengguo.

In addition to the three original Yuanying-level forces in the Feng Kingdom, there are also many powerful sects, and the power of the Immortal Cultivation Family far exceeds that of the Liang Kingdom.

"Has the Nascent Soul Lord of Lihuo Palace ever taken action?"

Lu Changan asked.

The two or three existing Nascent Souls of Feng Kingdom are restrained by Chu Tianfeng and the True Lord of Nascent Souls of Chen Kingdom on the frontal battlefield, and will not be easily dispatched.

"It is said that they once took action to capture an important fairy city. However, due to some scruples, they did not directly intervene in the war."

Zhao Siyao replied.

"Some concerns?"

Lu Changan looked confused.

The only thing that can make True Monarch Nascent Soul scruple is the same level of intimidation.

On the front of Feng State, it is impossible to send a Nascent Soul for a long time to deal with the invasion of Liang State's sects, and it can only be used as an emergency response occasionally.

Otherwise, in the early stage of Nascent Soul, which has been alone for a long time, it is easy for Chu Tianfeng to sneak attack him. Even if he is only seriously injured, it will have a great impact on the situation.

"According to rumors, this matter is related to the sword cultivator from the Feng Kingdom's Blood Sword Valley who had his body destroyed and escaped from the Nascent Soul."

Zhao Siyao looked unsure and was talking about gossip.

The "Blood Sword Valley" of the Feng Kingdom is located in a slightly remote location and was once attacked by Chu Tianfeng of the Yan Kingdom and the sect of the Chen Kingdom.

"The sword cultivator from the Blood Sword Valley was once the number one Nascent Soul of the Feng Kingdom and the strongest. When Chu Tianfeng, the middle-stage Nascent Soul of the Yan Kingdom, came to kill him, he even took the initiative to fight, causing Chu Tianfeng to suffer some injuries.

"

"This great sword cultivator, whose Nascent Soul escaped, is rumored to be behind the scenes, commanding the remaining forces in the Blood Sword Valley. The Blood Sword Valley has received assistance from the other two major Nascent Soul sects and is dormant and stationed in the southern part of the Feng Kingdom."

After hearing this, Lu Changan had a general understanding of the situation on the front line.

The chief cultivator of the Blood Sword Valley who escaped from the Nascent Soul was obviously not an ordinary early Nascent Soul.

If the sect has the peak of Dan Formation with the same source of skills, and allows it to host the physical body, there is no need for a head-to-head confrontation with the Nascent Soul Lord from the Lihuo Palace. It only needs to launch an attack, which will also be a dimensionality-reducing blow to Nascent Soul and below.

With the behind-the-scenes command and coordination of the Nascent Soul Lord, Liang Guo's invasion strategy was greatly restricted.

One possibility cannot even be ruled out. The Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator of the Blood Sword Valley and the Nascent Soul Master of the Lihuo Palace have reached a certain tacit understanding, and there are certain restrictions on each other's attacks.

"On the whole, the Liang Guo sect is still attacking the aggressor, but the situation is not so smooth."

…

After talking about the battlefields of neighboring countries, Zhao Siyao mentioned his own situation.

She is the second batch of sect monks to go on an expedition. As a late-stage foundation builder, she has higher responsibilities than Lin Lu.

Invading neighboring countries brings both opportunities and risks.

From the early stages of the expedition, the opportunities clearly outweighed the dangers.

At least, the casualties of Liang State were much lower than those of Feng State.

Some of the invading Liang monks obtained wealth and resources that were difficult to accumulate in several lifetimes.
