Chapter 217: Beginning to Condense Pill [4K]
Shui Hanqing understood this and didn't say anything more.
In the following time, Ye Linyuan began to make final preparations. He first checked the family's background, and then waited for Han Chi and others to come.
Finally, in the last year of the three-year period, Han Chi, Douzhan Jinyuan and Ye Chongyun finally returned.
After the three people returned, Ye Linyuan communicated with them for a while, and then went to the Tianxing Sword Sect.
"Friend Ye, you are finally here."
Over the years, Ye Linyuan has come to Tianxing Sword Sect almost every few years and is already familiar with it.
However, he only dealt with the top leaders of the Tianxing Sword Sect, the Minghuang Sword Master, and was not familiar with the others.
But this time, Master Minghuang Sword broke his usual habit and invited Ye Linyuan to a secret hall of the Tianxing Sword Sect.
Inside the secret hall, the Sword Masters Huangji and Canglan, as well as several other Jindan Sword Masters, had been waiting for a long time.
They talked for a long time in the secret hall, and Ye Linyuan felt more confident when he left. The several sword masters of the Tianxing Sword Sect even sent him out very politely.
"Next, I can focus on the breakthrough without distractions."
After leaving the Tianxing Sword Sect, Ye Linyuan was thinking in his mind.
This time he had a long secret talk with the Tianxing Sword Sect and reached an agreement with them.
According to the agreement, the Tianxing Sword Sect will not take action to stop Ye Linyuan from achieving enlightenment, and will even help him prevent the intervention of the three major forces of the Black Dragon Demon Realm, the Luoxia Sea, and the Sanyuan Alliance.
As a price, Ye Linyuan will need to form an alliance with the Tianxing Sword Sect in the future and fight against several major forces together with it.
Ye Linyuan was very satisfied with this.
As he expected, as long as the Tianxing Sword Sect did not attack him, he could concentrate on fighting against the Canghai Sect, and he would be satisfied.
It was actually expected that the Tianxing Sword Sect would not help him achieve enlightenment.
They already have three major enemies: the Black Dragon Demon Realm, the Sunset Cloud Sea, and the Sanyuan Alliance. Even if they want to help, they may not be able to spare much energy.
Instead, it will trigger a chain reaction, freeing up forces like the Changqing Xianmen who might have originally sat on the sidelines to take action.
Furthermore, the dispute between fellow practitioners is a fight to the death. The Tianxing Sword Sect and the Canghai Sect do not have a huge hatred, so naturally they would not be willing to be involved in such a war to the death.
"This time, we should only have to deal with the Canghai Sect."
Ye Linyuan pondered, constantly calculating the structure of the Seven Domain Alliance.
Today, the Seven Domain Alliance is roughly divided into several major factions due to the rise of the Tianxing Sword Sect.
Among them, the Tianxing Sword Sect has five great Jindan sword masters. The sect leader, the Huangji Sword Master, is said to be able to fight in the middle stage of the Jindan realm. It can be said that he is at the peak of his career and shows signs of recovering his foundation from a thousand years ago.
The Sanyuan Alliance, Luoxia Sect, and Black Dragon Demon Realm were afraid of the Tianxing Sword Sect, so they formed an opposing force.
The two major forces, Changqing Xianmen and Xinghuo Sect, were afraid that Xinghen Palace and Tianxing Sword Sect would merge again. They wanted to take advantage of the fact that Tianxing Sword Sect was unable to split itself up and eliminate this hidden danger in advance, so they launched a war to exterminate Xinghen Palace.
Who would have thought that because of the sudden breakthrough of the old ghost Blood Soul to the Golden Core stage, the layout of the two major forces was disrupted, and even the Qingniu Demon Realm and the Xinghen Palace formed an alliance.
After all, the human race is powerful, and the Qingniu Demon Realm is close to the three major forces. Once the human race's strength is integrated, it will be a foregone conclusion that they will take action against the Qingniu Demon Realm.
In the eyes of the Green Bull Demon King, the divided human factions are the best Seven Realm Alliance.
As for the Canghai Sect, the number one force of the human race, it is very low-key and has not shown any signs of starting a war. It seems that it is just waiting for Ye Linyuan, its fellow enemy, to achieve enlightenment.
"The major factions are checking each other, and most likely they won't help me achieve enlightenment."
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart. According to his estimation, even if the major forces did not check and balance each other, it was unlikely that these forces would take action against him.
Firstly, in the eyes of several major forces, he was only a great perfection in the foundation building stage after all. It was impossible for him to be in their eyes at all. Even if he broke through the golden elixir realm, it was unlikely that he would survive.
Secondly, as the number one cultivator of the human race, the leader of Canghai Sect has been hiding very deeply for a long time, so it is very likely that he can break through to the late Jindan stage.
In this case, they might instead take action to obstruct Sect Master Canghai, or even secretly help Ye Linyuan break through the Jindan realm and survive.
After all, in the battle that year, Teng Snake was found out by the Canghai Sect Master using the secret technique of heaven, and was then severely damaged by their joint siege. The threat posed was much lower than Ye Linyuan had expected.
According to Ye Linyuan's initial prediction, Teng Snake could completely rely on its own speed to fight guerrilla warfare in the Seven Domain Alliance.
With Teng Snake's speed comparable to that of a late Jindan, the major forces have no way to deal with him. This is why the major forces are extremely wary of him. They can only hope that the leader of Canghai Sect can break through to the late Jindan stage.
But he didn't expect that the master of Canghai Sect was so extraordinary. He actually used the secret technique of heaven to calculate the location of Teng Snake, forcing Teng Snake to be seriously injured and escape into the depths of Canghai.
If that were all, it would be fine. The most important thing is that the Teng Snake scale can lock the Teng Snake's position. As long as the Teng Snake appears in the Seven Domain Alliance, it will be immediately detected and hunted down by all major forces.
This alone can at least delay the growth time of the Teng Snake by nearly a hundred years, and also make the major forces feel less urgency, and instead are less willing to let the Master of Canghai Sect break through to the late Jindan stage.
In this situation, they may not be willing to fight to the death with the Lord of Canghai Sect, nor are they likely to intervene directly, but they are very likely to hide their identities and secretly obstruct.
"My only enemy in this Jindan catastrophe is the Canghai Sect Master."
"It's a pity that the Canghai Sect Master has such a cruel personality. Otherwise, the major forces might secretly help me and prevent him from breaking through to the late Jindan stage."
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, then put away all his calculations and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
In the following period of time, Ye Linyuan began to prepare to break through the Jindan realm.
Just when he was about to go into seclusion, an extremely shocking news came from the Seven Domain Alliance.
The Teng Snake suddenly returned from the deep sea and unexpectedly launched a sneak attack on the Xinghen Palace, killing a fake Dan ancestor of the Xinghen Palace, and then disappeared into the sea.
All major forces were shocked and sent people to Canghai Sect to question it.
This is because the person with the highest attainment in Tianji in the Seven Domain Alliance is Sect Master Canghai, and the piece of Teng Snake scale is also in the hands of Sect Master Canghai.
In the entire Seven Domain Alliance, the only one who can give early warning and find the location of the Teng Snake is the Lord of Canghai.
But when the major forces of the Seven Domain Alliance went to Canghai Sect, they were turned away and did not receive any response.
Helplessly, the major forces made their own calculations and found out that the leader of Canghai Sect had actually reached a deal with Tengshe.
He destroyed the scale, allowing the Teng Snake to roam freely in the Seven Domain Alliance, and the Teng Snake would not do anything to obstruct his chance of becoming a god.
After receiving this news, the entire Seven Domain Alliance suddenly felt as if the sky had fallen. For a moment, all major forces were in danger, and the sense of crisis directly rose to a large level.
They all hated the Canghai Sect's behavior, but they were helpless.
Some forces that were originally planning to secretly intervene in his enlightenment had no choice but to change their minds. "To use the suffering of the Seven Realms Alliance in exchange for his own enlightenment, this Canghai Sect Master is really ruthless."
"No wonder Li Changzhou once said that this person's meticulous mind and ruthless methods are beyond the reach of ordinary people."
Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart, his brows slightly frowned.
The reason why the Teng Snake came was because it confirmed that the Lord of Canghai Sect had destroyed the scale and lost the means to track his location.
This deal is a good deal for the Teng Snake because there are too many dangers hidden in the deep sea.
Even though he was a true spirit of heaven and earth, his cultivation was still too low, and he did not dare to let go and devour to improve his cultivation.
But it’s different in the Seven Domain Alliance. As long as there is no strong enemy in the late Jindan stage, he is not afraid of being hunted down by anyone.
Even if the leader of Canghai Sect swallowed a golden elixir of his fellow practitioner, it was still unclear whether he could break through to the late golden elixir stage.
After all, even if Ye Linyuan broke through, he was just a newly promoted Jindan, and the gap between him and the Canghai Sect Master was probably quite big.
Moreover, the leader of Canghai Sect is a water-based cultivator. He is not good at extremely fast escape techniques, nor does he have the ability to kill the Teng Snake in one blow. Even if he breaks through to the late Jindan stage, he may not be able to kill the Teng Snake.
As long as he doesn't lose any more scales, he will be very well-off in the Seven Domain Alliance in the future.
Once Teng Snake breaks through the middle stage of Jindan, it should be able to protect itself even when facing a cultivator in the late stage of Jindan.
"This person has made all kinds of calculations just to prevent the major Jindan forces from interfering."
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, and then smiled a little.
These major Jindan forces were tricked. Even if they no longer secretly helped Ye Linyuan survive, they probably would not help the Lord of Canghai Sect.
So in the final analysis, this golden elixir catastrophe is ultimately a contest between Ye Linyuan and the Canghai Sect.
"Han Chi and the others have returned, and the Xuan Yuan Sea-Suppressing Flag has been refined."
"All the preparations have been completed, and it is time to break through to the Golden Core Realm."
Ye Linyuan thought this in his heart, and immediately began to retreat to break through the Jindan realm.
This time when breaking through to the Golden Core stage, Ye Linyuan followed Liu Xuanheng's example and chose to block the news and break through in secret.
Therefore, his movements in the first half month after his breakthrough were not noticed by the Lord of Canghai Sect. But after waiting for half a month, with the appearance of vortexes of spiritual energy in the sky, the major forces still realized that something was wrong.
Countless talismans flew out at the first moment, conveying the news of his breakthrough to overseas.
"..."
"Another secret breakthrough ahead of time. This method is really clumsy."
In the Canghai area, in the Mingyue Palace.
The leader of the Canghai Sect sensed Ye Linyuan's breakthrough and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.
Beside him, a great Golden Core Master could not help but sneer, "He underestimates us too much. Our treasure ship has already been prepared, and our elite troops have already set out to the outside of the Tianxing Sea a year in advance."
The leader of Canghai Sect nodded, then boarded a third-order treasure boat and said, "Let's go."
After saying this, the treasure ship cut through the sky and disappeared at the end of the endless void.
At the same time, with the emergence of the spiritual energy vortex, one formation after another emerged within the Seven Islands of Star Lake, covering the entire Seven Islands of Star Lake.
Just one day after the formation on Yejia Island was activated, more than a hundred large ships appeared outside Yejia Island.
These treasure ships are all huge, each one is an extraordinary second-level treasure ship, and there are hundreds of foundation-building monks guarding them.
In the center of these treasure ships, there are three quasi-third-level treasure ships, each of which carries a huge cannon that can break through the formation. It is almost comparable to a second-level top-grade spiritual vein, and there are three fake pill ancestors sitting on it.
"With so many treasure ships, it seems they have been preparing for a long time."
Among the seven islands of Xinghu, Shui Hanqing was in charge of the formation with a solemn look on his face.
Compared to the Taoist Master Jingnie back then, the Canghai Sect can be said to be well prepared this time. Judging from the number and quality of these treasure ships, they may have requisitioned all of the second-grade top-quality treasure ships in the Canghai area.
"With his mid-stage Jindan cultivation, he is facing a fellow enemy who is in the early stage of Jindan. He even summoned his forces to attack. This person is really going too far."
The moment he saw these treasure ships, Ye Chongyun could not help but show his anger, and he wished he could blow up all of them.
However, his behavior was stopped by Ye Qinchu.
"The Canghai Sect is obviously stronger, but they still made full preparations for the battle. This shows that they are meticulous and are definitely not complacent people."
"Since these treasure ships dare to come out directly, there must be some hidden cards hidden behind them. If you go out and get trapped by them, it will give them an opportunity to force us to go out and fight."
After hearing this, Ye Chongyun could only suppress the fighting spirit in his heart.
Seeing this, Ye Qinxin immediately said, "I'm afraid the outer formation cannot be defended. Let them try to preserve their strength and consume some spiritual energy. Once the formation is broken, they will withdraw immediately."
Upon hearing this, Ye Linze immediately passed the entire order down.
As soon as the order was conveyed, these treasure ships began to show their power.
One after another, the crossbows that could break through the formation were unleashed with great power, and soon the outer formation was pierced through. The army marched to the Seven Islands of Xinghu Lake, five hundred miles away, and faced the Tiangang and Disha star formation.
"A super large composite formation. This formation is quite interesting."
The moment they saw the formation, the three fake Dan ancestors in the treasure ship immediately sneered.
But at his command, a large number of huge cannons fired, colliding violently with the Tiangang Disha Star Array.
One has to admit that the Tiangang Disha Star Array is indeed extraordinary. If the opponent is someone like the Taoist Jingnie who is in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm, Ye Linyuan can force the opponent to use most of his means by relying on this formation.
However, facing hundreds of second-order treasure ships, these spirit veins managed to hold out for three days, but were eventually broken through by a large number of huge cannons.
"Damn it!"
Seeing that their own super-large formation was broken before Sect Leader Canghai even made a move, the Ye family members were so angry that they gnashed their teeth, but they could only retreat to the seven islands of Daoxing Lake.
Fortunately, the spiritual energy reserves of the second-level treasure ships are limited after all. After breaking through the Star Lake Seven Islands formation, these treasure ships suddenly lost most of their combat power.
There are only three treasure ships at the fake dan level, which still maintain most of their combat power, but they have also consumed a lot of energy. It seems that they can no longer break through the Big Dipper star formation.
