Chapter 495 Expansion! Expansion! Resurrection
Author: Dolphin in the vegetable garden
Just fifty years is too short and insignificant for the Immortal Cultivation World, which has been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years to Immortal Cultivation families, and even to sects that have been passed down for thousands of years.
But in the past fifty years, the country of Yue has undergone earth-shaking changes and undergone a major reshuffle!
The reason lies in the changes in the strength of each faction.
First is the Yellow Maple Valley in the north.
A certain foundation-building monk who had long been considered dead by the sect had his name crossed out from the list of disciples.
As a result, he came back alive after nearly two hundred years. What shocked countless people was that his cultivation had reached the early stage of Nascent Soul.
For Huang Maple Valley, this is completely pie in the sky!
No, it's more exciting than a rain of spiritual stones.
You must know that although the only supreme elder in the Yellow Maple Valley, Old Monster Linghu, is in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, his lifespan is short and he is about to die. If the sect does not have a new Nascent Soul monk to take over the Yellow Maple Valley, it will surely fall apart and be divided among the major Nascent Soul forces.
Almost exhausted.
Han Li successfully conceived a baby when he was only about 200 years old, which was enough to ensure that the foundation of Huang Maple Valley would last for thousands of years. I really feel sleepy and give him a pillow.
Afterwards, a grand Grand Elder Ceremony was held in Yellow Maple Valley, and all the sects of the Yue Kingdom came to watch the ceremony. After the ceremony, Ancestor Linghu went directly to travel, obviously looking for opportunities to increase his lifespan and achieve breakthroughs.
The entire Yellow Maple Valley was completely in the hands of Han Li. However, Han Li had no interest in taking care of the sect, and handed everything over to the alchemy monks within the sect.
Two hundred years later, Han Li's master Li Huayuan and his uncle Hongfu were still in the Dan-Jie stage. They were the two who were most touched when they saw Han Li's Nascent Soul cultivation return.
In the world of immortality, strength determines seniority.
Li Huayuan respectfully called Han Li Supreme Elder, while Han Li addressed him as fellow Taoist. In the eyes of everyone, he had given Li Huayuan enough face.
After that, the territory of Huang Maple Valley expanded by 30%, and the territory of Tianque Castle, Hiyue Sect, and Qingxu Sect each lost a part.
Next is the south.
Yan Ruyan, who was born in Yanjiabao and became a disciple of Jiang Yun, successfully gave birth to a baby and became the fourth Supreme Elder of Spirit Beast Mountain.
Some sects that have only one Nascent Soul and whose life span is approaching are even more mixed with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
They all lamented that Spirit Beast Mountain was favored by heaven, and Nascent Soul monks appeared one after another. They felt that it was easier than them to give birth to pill-forming elders.
In fact, this is indeed the case. The four sects of Qingxu Sect, Jujian Sect, Tianque Castle, and Huadaowu all have single-digit number of alchemy-forming monks, with one appearing every few decades.
It's more than that.
Spirit Beast Mountain announced that Supreme Elder Jiang Yun had successfully advanced to the middle stage of Nascent Soul. The Yue Kingdom and surrounding countries were all in disbelief after receiving invitations from various countries.
It wasn't until the old monsters from various factions saw Jiang Yun with their own eyes at the celebration ceremony at Spirit Beast Mountain that they finally faced reality.
The total number of Nascent Soul cultivators from all the countries in Tiannan is nearly 200, but there are only about 30 in the middle Nascent Soul stage. All sects believe that Jiang Yun will not stop at the early Nascent Soul stage, but the problem is that the speed of advancement is too frightening.
Jiang Yun's heels are clear, and it is easy to find out that Jiang Yun is only over 200 years old now. In the future, he will have enough longevity to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage and become a great monk. It is not impossible to even reach the legendary stage of transformation into gods.
All the major forces in Tiannan understand that the rise of Spirit Beast Mountain is unstoppable.
Let's not talk about the distant ones. According to the classics, luck monks can kill enemies across levels. Therefore, many old monsters now believe that Jiang Yun's strength is not weaker than the three great monks from Tiannan.
Due to the influence of Jiang Yun's promotion and Yan Ruyan's marriage, various factions in the Yue Kingdom were the first to bear the brunt. Especially the three old neighbors of Jujianmen, Huadaowu and Baiyue Sect.
In the original book, the Luoyun Sect of the Xi Kingdom was already preparing to evacuate the Yunmeng Mountains, a treasured place for cultivating immortals, before Han Li joined.
Why?
To put it bluntly, the sect is not strong enough, and the two Nascent Souls cannot hold such a good spiritual land in the early stage. If they continue to bite the bullet and hold on to it, the sect may one day be destroyed!
The three factions knew that this day would come sooner or later, but it came too fast! They had shrunk their territory not long ago, but only a few years later it came again!
The Biyue Sect has a strong family background. As a result, the entire sphere of influence has shrunk by 50% this time, and all the territory south of the capital has been handed over. Several hundred miles south of the mountain gate is the territory of Spirit Beast Mountain.
Although it's a bit miserable, the mountain gate is still there anyway! It's like a landlord who owes a debt. Although the branch property has been used to pay off the debt, the ancestral land where he rented the house is still there.
Afterwards, the Hidden Moon Sect turned around and squeezed the territory of Qingxu Sect and Tianque Fort. But this had nothing to do with Spirit Beast Mountain.
The Jujianmen located to the west of Spirit Beast Mountain and the Huadaowu Family located to the east were not good at all. In the end, the Ju faction moved away without saying a word and went to the south to join Wei Wuya.
The Yuanying old monsters of both factions are old immortals who have been unable to break through to the middle stage for hundreds of years. Although their abilities are not good, they are still aware of current affairs.
At that time, there was no sign of the Mulan people attacking the Nine Kingdoms Alliance. Wei Wuya didn't pay much attention to it after learning that the two factions had come to seek refuge, and he casually arranged for the two factions to settle in Beiliang Kingdom.
At first, the two groups thought it would not be a big problem to live under someone else's roof, but within a few years the bad news came.
But that’s a story for another day.
After this incident, the country's thirteen states were expanded, and Lingshou Mountain exclusively occupied the six southern states, doubling its sphere of influence. The remaining seven states were divided among the four sects.
The name "Seven Factions of Yue" no longer exists.
Thirty years later, it was the second month after the Yuanci Divine Light was fully realized.
Jinguyuan.
Jiang Yun took his disciple Yuan Yao to a barren mountain.
"Master, this place is the underworld I chose!" Yuan Yao pointed to the black mist-shrouded wasteland in the distance and said, looking impatient.
Jiang Yun looked at the familiar and unfamiliar place in front of him, feeling filled with emotion.
Nearly two hundred years have passed since the invasion of the devil. All the participants in the war who have not yet formed the elixir are either old or no longer alive. Jinguyuan has also become a battlefield site.
Although the war only lasted less than two years, the casualties were very heavy, and countless spiritual beasts, ghosts, and demonic corpses were killed.
When cleaning the battlefield, the corpses of the monks on the side were identified, burned and boxed. Family members sent people to send the ashes and relics back.
Enemy corpses do not receive this kind of treatment.
In order to save trouble, I directly cast a super large-scale earth attribute spell to bury the body on the spot.
Unexpectedly, nearly a hundred years later, this battlefield would become a dark place, and many ghosts and demon corpses would appear.
Ghosts are also resources! Even if you catch a ghost at the first level of the Qi training stage, you can sell it for a few spiritual stones. If you are very lucky, you can still pick up a good magic weapon and make a small fortune.
Many cultivating families also like to let young people come here to practice. The foundation-building monks who lead the team can also educate the young people on the glorious achievements of the past.
These popular science people have never participated in it themselves. After all, the life span of the foundation-building monks is only 250 years. Most of them are based on hearsay and then add their own imagination, so they have different versions.
But the protagonist of the story is definitely Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun himself released his spiritual consciousness and heard more than a dozen different versions from several teahouses in Fangcheng. The most exaggerated version was that Jiang Yun rushed into the Demonic Army's position alone, and instantly killed the Demonic Pill with a swipe of effort.
Dozens of elders killed tens of thousands of demonic troops by the way.
Jiang Yun was also speechless about this.
In short, the desolate land of Jinguyuan has become a new resource point.
Large Fortress No. 12.
Now it has been renamed Jinguyuan No. 1 Fang City. At that time, this fortress was funded and built by Lingshou Mountain. After the war, it naturally belonged to Lingshou Mountain.
In fact, the geographical location of Fang City itself is very advantageous. It is not far from the borders of Jiang State, Cheqi State, and Zijin State. It is definitely a transportation artery.
After the formation of Yindi, its popularity gradually increased. Later, traders from various countries came to open shops in this city and it prospered.
Nowadays, even though the city is small, it is well-equipped with all the essentials. There are also inns, elixir shops, craft shops, grocery stores, teahouses, etc.
The huge building in the center of the fortress has also become the office of Lingshou Mountain in Jinguyuan and the Jinguyuan branch of Zhenfan Hall.
In fact, many staff have these two identities at the same time. A staff member you see at the Spirit Beast Mountain counter today may appear at the Zhenfandian counter tomorrow, which is extremely flexible.
Who made Jiang Yun the leader of both?
Jiang Yun came here today to use the secret technique of returning to the sun to resurrect Yanli.
Not long after, Spirit Beast Mountain ordered an announcement in Fang City: Spirit Beast Mountain is about to refine a powerful ghost magic weapon. No one is allowed to approach the underworld for the next five days. Anyone who violates this will be wanted by Spirit Beast Mountain.
At the same time, several Danjie elders and hundreds of low-level disciples also set up a large number of warning posts near the underworld to wait strictly.
