Chapter 222 Someone coming from the sky (two chapters in one)

Through their conversation, Liu Yu learned that the senior sister wearing palace clothes in the later stage of foundation building was named Lin.

At this time, of the nine foundation-building monks of the Yuanyang Sect, six returned and one died, while two others have not yet returned.

However, generally speaking, there should not be any scenes of "counter-attack in desperate situations" or "defeating the strong with the weak". At most, the monks from the Hehuan Sect can escape with their lives, because the monks who were hunted down by the Yuanyang Sect usually had a higher level of cultivation.

Small steps.

The gap between small realms in the foundation building stage is much greater than that in the Qi refining stage. Unless someone like Liu Yu has sophisticated spiritual weapons, pure mana, or has some hidden cards such as talismans, it is basically impossible to make a comeback.

After all, only a small number of monks are able to move forward, so it is a very small chance of happening.

Unless they have their own unique advantages, more than 90% of monks will be ruthlessly crushed when faced with the gap in cultivation.

Facing the monks' ruthless slaughter, mortals had no power to resist. No matter what kind of resistance they had, they were insignificant in the face of magic weapons and spells.

By the time the discussion among several foundation-building monks was completed, most of the mortals had become corpses lying on the ground, and only a few "lucky ones" escaped into the darkness and saved their lives.

The disciples in the Qi Refining Stage did not choose to pursue those mortals who had already fled into the distant darkness. After all, time was tight and they could not kill them all. It was enough to eliminate most of them so that they could not organize themselves and could not mine for the Hehuan Gate.

The remaining two people have not returned, but time waits for no one, so they cannot stand here and wait foolishly.

Zhou Zhuofeng arranged for the female cultivator surnamed Lin, Xie Junjie and other four people to take some Qi-refining period disciples into the mine to destroy them. He himself directed the overall situation from outside, while Liu Yu was arranged to observe the situation in the direction of Tianqiong City from a distance.

"Skydome City is only one hundred and eighty miles away from here. Counting the time it takes to upload the note notification, Skydome City will react in at most half an hour."

"To be cautious, we have at most half an hour to take action. It has been two and a half hours since the attack was launched. We will stay here for at most a quarter and a half before we start our return journey."

"Otherwise, the possibility of encountering Hehuanmen reinforcements will increase. Please hurry up, brothers and sisters."

Zhou Zhuofeng slowly glanced at the cultivators, his expression solemn and he said in a deep voice.

"Senior Brother Zhou, I will definitely pay attention to the time."

Liu Yu, Xie Junjie and other foundation-building monks all raised their hands and said yes, and then dispersed according to the arrangement, each carrying out their own tasks.

Liu Yu turned into a black light again and flew ten miles outside the mine. He found a boulder about ten feet in size and fell down to escape the light.

He used the invisible spirit technique to converge his cultivation aura, and the power of his spiritual consciousness spread forward without hesitation, paying attention to every move within a seven-mile radius.

The mother-in-law soul-chasing blade in the left hand and the gold steel flag in the right hand, keep vigilant at all times when attacking and defending.

The return journey will start in a quarter and a half at most. At this time, fully activated spiritual consciousness will not cause any burden, so there is no need to worry about excessive consumption of the power of spiritual consciousness.

Liu Yu stood motionless with his back against the boulder. The aura in his whole body was reduced to a minimum using the invisible spirit technique, and his presence was as low as a piece of rotten wood.

Then he performed several complex spells, and his figure slowly became transparent, and finally disappeared.

In the spiritual observation of ordinary foundation-building monks, there is only a solitary boulder here. If you don't see it with your own eyes, you can't find out that there is a monk hiding there.

This is the brilliance of occultism.

Liu Yu experienced this feeling carefully and secretly sighed, it was worthy of the secret technique highly praised by the old demon of Jin Dan.

With this technique, it is much easier whether you are pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, or killing people and grabbing treasures.

The invisibility technique is used to hide oneself, and the magical technique is used to observe the surroundings covertly. With these two secret techniques in hand, Liu Yu can predict the enemy's opportunity to advance and retreat freely, and it is easy to strategize.

As long as you don't encounter monks with spiritual eyes such as "Destroy the Illusion" and "Mingqing Spiritual Eyes", or have very good secret searching techniques, you will have some inherent advantages.

While Liu Yu was thinking, a golden escaping light broke the calmness of the night sky and entered the range of his spiritual consciousness.

He was slightly startled, but his breath did not fluctuate at all. When he saw it was Zhuang Shilong, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhuang Shilong's face was red, his robes were stained with blood, and his breath was a little disordered. It seemed that the Hehuanmen monk's last-minute counterattack had caused him serious injuries.

The golden escaping light was so fast and urgent that it passed over the boulder in the blink of an eye, without even noticing that there was a monk hiding under it.

This man was a monk from the family lineage, and he and Liu Yu were just acquaintances. There was no grudge between them but no friendship either.

Therefore, Liu Yu did not show up to say hello, but just let him pass from above.

Everyone knows that the time for this mission is limited. At a certain time, regardless of whether the Hehuanmen monks can be captured or not, they must return to the mine to join the large army.

Otherwise, the level of danger will rise in a straight line, and you may encounter monks sent by Sky City at any time.

For the next quarter of an hour, there was silence in the night sky.

Except for the mortals and low-level casual cultivators who were escaping hastily around, no foundation-building monks passed by, and Liu Yu had no interest in taking action against these people.

Before arriving at the agreed upon time, the last ray of light came belatedly, just like a person who has gone to work and is keeping track of the time.

But this person's face was very ugly, and it looked like he had wasted his time.

This mission is different from the last mission to wipe out the Huang family. The participants are all Yuanyang Sect monks. The spoils of cooperative kills will be distributed among themselves, and those killed individually will belong to themselves.

The same goes for disciples in the Qi refining stage, there is no need to share the harvest with the foundation building monks.

After all, they are all risking their lives, and they are all juniors of the sect. Most foundation-building monks still want to face it.

After the last person returned to the mine, half an hour had passed.

Liu Yu had finally completed his mission, and was about to withdraw his consciousness to dispel the invisibility spell and go to the mine to join the large army, when his expression suddenly changed and he looked towards the north.

At the edge of spiritual consciousness, ten rays of escaping light approached.

Every ray of light-emitting spiritual pressure and aura has reached the foundation-building stage.

The momentum of the two leaders was like a rainbow, and they stood out from the crowd. They were the most eye-catching. They were already at the peak of the late stage of foundation building.

"Brother Hehuanmen!"

All the fellow monks who were in the foundation building period of this mission have returned to the mine. This group of monks came from the direction of Sky City, and their identities are already obvious.

Liu Yu's face darkened, the worst case scenario had occurred.

The thoughts in my mind rose like bubbles, and then burst one by one, until only two remained.

Right now he has two choices.

First, he stood still and allowed the Hehuanmen monks to pass by, and then he walked away calmly.

With the skill of concealment that he has cultivated to a perfect level, he has a greater confidence in hiding these Hehuanmen monks, and the opponent's first target must be the direction of the mine, and they will not search carefully along the way.

Second, he no longer hid, and immediately drove the escape light to the Amethyst Mine, notified Zhou Zhuofeng and the others, and then made plans on whether to fight or flee.

The pupils under Liu Yu's eyelashes were as dark as ink, and her eyes were still bright in the darkness.

The decision was made almost instantly.

At this time, the first two of the ten escaping lights have completely entered the range of spiritual consciousness and are still approaching rapidly.

He no longer hesitated and instantly broke the fragile balance formed by the invisible spirit technique.

He took out a transmission note from his storage bag, whispered a few words with his lips moving, then flicked it into white light and flew quickly towards the mine.

At the same time, the liquid mana in the Dantian circulated, flowing through the meridians into the Son-Mother Soul-Chasing Blade without hesitation, and then he threw it upwards and jumped up gently.

The mother-in-law turned around and turned into a dim black light and flew towards the mine.

Time was running out, and Liu Yu escaped as fast as he could without taking out his shield and wind boat.

He has no regrets about making this choice.

Although the hidden spirit technique is brilliant, its greatest effect is to conceal the aura of cultivation, and hiding the body is only secondary.

If among the ten people coming from Tianqiong City, there is someone like the "Six Sons of Hehuan", then Liu Yu is only 50% sure that they will not be discovered.

There is no guarantee that among the ten people, there will be no monks practicing the secret technique of spiritual eyes that is more advanced than the "Sky Eye Technique". Maybe they will discover their existence at a glance.

This possibility is extremely small, but once it occurs, it will be the most dangerous situation, and it will immediately fall into siege.

Even if you have many trump cards, you can't escape death.

And he didn't want to gamble.

I don't want to leave my life or death to luck.

Another problem is that even if his side cannot defeat the Hehuanmen monks, Liu Yu does not think that they will be completely wiped out. At least it will be difficult for Zhou Zhuofeng to die.

If he fled alone without notifying them, he would have violated one of the most serious rules of the sect. Even though Qingzhou would be huge, there would be no place for him to stay.

The sect will soon know the specific situation, and it will be impossible to quibble about it by then.

As for returning to the mine to inform Zhou Zhuofeng and the others, as long as he behaves normally and does not attract too strong enemy repairs, the risk is actually very small.

With various trump cards and secret techniques, you can deal with it calmly. Whether it is counterattack or escape, it all depends on the situation.

Liu Yu considered the pros and cons and gains and losses clearly in an instant and made the choice that was most beneficial to him.

The distance of ten miles passed in an instant, and the ground was covered with corpses, ruins and burning flames.

There were also seven foundation-building monks headed by Zhou Zhuofeng who were waiting in full formation, and they all came into view one by one.

As for the disciples in the Qi refining stage, they had already dispersed and fled to the south using the light, and were already some distance away from the mine.

They must have received an order to retreat, so the foundation-building monks didn't stop them.

After all, it is difficult for monks in the Qi Refining Stage to intervene in the battles between Foundation Establishment monks. If they stay here, it will be difficult to escape the pursuit, and more than 90% of them will die.

The situation of the monks coming to Tianqiong City was clearly stated in the transmission notes. Seeing this situation, Liu Yu thought about it and understood the intention.
