The two monks who had reached the Mystical Transformation Realm officially fought each other.
Once cultivators of similar realms and combat abilities start fighting, there is no way to end the battle in a short time.
Time began to pass quickly, and soon dusk arrived. In Jianglin City, government soldiers began to expel the people and asked them to go home.
"All shops are closed tonight and no one is allowed to go out. Violators will be severely punished." The officers and soldiers announced the order loudly.
The people didn't know what was happening, but they could only obey orders and go home.
As the sun completely set, Jianglin City immediately became silent. According to the rules, even the lights were not allowed to be turned on today, so the city was very dark.
"It's time." Ye Liuyun snapped his fingers. The next moment, the dream pills that were pre-set in various places in Jiangling City exploded, and a large amount of smoke spread out. In less than three minutes, it covered the entire Jianglin City.
When ordinary people smell the scent of the Dream Pill, even those who are not asleep will immediately faint on the ground.
Some independent cultivators only felt a little dizzy, but did not fall asleep immediately.
At the same time, a large number of cultivators flew rapidly from the Yunhai Mountains and arrived above Jianglin City. They were the cultivators from the Yun Sect and the four lower-level sects.
Chapter 251 Action (4000 words)
The leader of the Yun Sect is a man who looks very young and handsome. His name is Fang Mingyu, and he is a cultivator at the peak of the Divine Soul Realm in the Four Extreme Secret Realms.
"Strange, even though there is a curfew in Jianglin City tonight, it is too quiet, isn't it?" Fang Mingyu scanned Jianglin City with his spiritual sense, and then asked with a strange look on his face.
The rest of the people also quickly used their spiritual sense to scan the area, and they found that almost all the civilians were asleep. Except for a small number of cultivators who were still making noises, almost all the mortals were asleep in the city.
"Could it be that the Secret Investigation Department used some means to make all the people faint?" an inner sect elder replied.
It's a pity that no one can answer this question.
"Mingyu, there is a strong energy fluctuation in the west. On one side is demonic energy, and on the other side should be the cultivators of our human race. Their aura is much stronger than mine." An old voice suddenly sounded in Fang Mingyu's ears.
The person who spoke should be Yun Sect's ancestor Li Qianqiu. With such a big event, Yun Sect's ancestor would definitely come.
When Fang Mingyu heard this, his heart sank. He felt that many things today were beyond their expectations, which made Fang Mingyu a little confused for a moment.
But Ye Liuyun would not give them a chance to think, because under the cover of Lin Qingyou's power, Ye Liuyun began to refine the Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering Pill. As the Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering Pill began to be refined, the originally bright starry sky was covered by dark clouds, and muffled thunder sounded between heaven and earth.
"Eh? This? What's going on? Is someone going through a tribulation?" The Yun Sect's strong men were stunned at the sudden change.
What shocked them even more was what happened next. After the thunderclouds appeared in the sky, they began to fall recklessly to various places in Jianglin City. There was no pattern to the locations where these lightning bolts fell, because they were locked onto the cultivators in Jianglin City, and they would fall wherever there were cultivators.
"Boom, boom..." The sound of thunder continued.
Especially in the direction of the north city, the lightning strikes were most frequent, and it was simply a thunderstorm over there.
Because all the followers of the Blood Demon Cult have gathered at the headquarters tonight, there are at least five thousand of them.
The elder of the Blood Demon Cult was anxiously waiting for Lu Wenyang to come back, but the sudden lightning struck them so hard that they were furious.
"what……"
Almost at the same time, all the believers were struck by lightning, and they screamed in agony from being struck by lightning. Only monks at the Dao Palace level and above could resist it.
This lightning is twice as lethal to evildoers.
"Damn it, Captain, it must be the Yun Sect that attacked us. We are under attack from their thunder magic. Damn Lu Wenyang, he knew that our Blood Demon Sect could be attacked by the Yun Sect at any time during this period, but he still left Jianglin City willfully." Several powerful men from the Four Extreme Secret Realms kept cursing.
The scene in the city really looks like the end of the world, but what confuses Fang Mingyu and others is that these lightning bolts seem to only strike monks and not mortals, and the lightning bolts can ignore any objects and hit the monks directly.
"How strange! What kind of method is this? Is it a formation set up by the Secret Investigation Department? This lightning is like a thunderbolt, which can ignore any obstacles. It's a pity that the power is too small." Fang Mingyu and others muttered.
Although the lightning was powerful, it did not seem to kill the monks when it struck them.
The scene in front of them was familiar to everyone in Yunxia Sect. Wasn't this the kind of lightning that could not kill people? They had all experienced the feeling of lightning.
“Senior Sister, isn’t this the lightning phenomenon that appeared in our Yunxia Sect? It’s exactly the same situation, but it can’t kill people. It’s like a thunderbolt.” Yun Che asked in a voice transmission.
Yun Yun nodded solemnly. She was now basically certain that this strange phenomenon of falling thunder must be related to her apprentice or Ye Liuyun.
Because during the time when the two of them were away from Yunxia Sect, Yunxia Sect had good weather and good harvests, but wherever the two of them went, there was chaos and foul weather.
Therefore, Yun Yun was 90% sure that it was the doing of the two of them, but it was hard for her to imagine how one at the Lingxi realm and the other at the Lingwen realm could have such an exaggerated method.
If this strange thunder and lightning phenomenon was really caused by these two people, then that means that the other strange phenomena in the sky and the earth must also be related to them.
Now that she knew the laws of thunder and lightning, Yun Yun also understood that this might be the best time for them to take action. This thunder and lightning would suppress some of the strength of the Dao Palace realm, and would also completely suppress the cultivators of the Wheel Sea realm.
"Master Fang, take a look over there in the north city. The news we received said that the Blood Demon Cult's headquarters is over there, and that place is covered by a large amount of lightning. In addition, these lightnings seem to only attack cultivators, so we can basically be sure that the people of the Blood Demon Cult should all be over there. The power of this falling lightning is not very great, and we cultivators above the Dao Palace can take advantage of the opportunity to take action." Yun Yun suggested.
After thinking for a while, Fang Mingyu gestured to an elder. The elder understood what Fang Mingyu meant and told him to try out its power.
He flew under the dark clouds, and the next moment, a bolt of lightning struck down, but it fell on him and was easily blocked by his strong body, causing almost no damage.
“Master, this thunder and lightning can at most injure cultivators in the Dao Palace realm. It has no effect on cultivators in our Four Poles Secret Realm.” The elder said hurriedly after feeling it.
Fang Mingyu didn’t know what was going on, but he couldn’t care less.
At the same time, Fang Mingyu received a message from the Secret Investigation Department, saying that they could take action now.
If they want to take action, they must notify the monks at the imperial court.
Although Lu Wenyang was led away and there was the threat of falling lightning from the sky, the arrow was on the string and had to be shot.
"All disciples, listen up. The cultivators at the Lunhai realm, surround the area. The cultivators above the Dao Palace realm, follow me into the city to eliminate the demons and evil spirits." Fang Mingyu gave the order with a wave of his hand.
Then he took the brunt of the flight towards the north city of Jianglin.
The people from the Imperial Court's Secret Investigation Department immediately rushed to the palace where Lu Wenyang lived with thousands of Imperial Court monks. According to their investigation and speculation, the headquarters of the Blood Demon Cult should be in Lu Wenyang's underground palace.
That place is definitely the safest place in Jianglin City. Normally, no one can enter without Lu Wenyang's order.
"Ouch! Lord Inspector, the lightning has made our whole bodies numb. We can't move." The monks from the Secret Investigation Division who were in the Lunhai realm lay on the ground and said in pain.
As for cultivators above the Dao Palace, thunder and lightning cannot do anything to them, but they will still feel a little uncomfortable.
"Damn it, I don't know what's going on. Has someone arranged some formation around Jianglin City that we don't know about? However, according to this envoy's observation, these lightning strikes seem to only attack standing monks. As long as you lie down, the lightning strikes will not continue to attack. Then the people of the Blood Demon Cult must be similar to us."
"Lu Wenyang is not here today, and the Yun Sect has also rushed over. Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to fight." Du Ming said with a gritted heart.
This lightning and thunder doesn't recognize anyone except Lin Aoxue and Ye Liuyun.
Lin Aoxue and the others also received a message from the sect, asking those who were able to act to come and meet them immediately.
——————————————————————————————————————————
"Liuyun, I'm leaving you here. I'm going to meet up with Master and the others. The attack has begun." Lin Aoxue said to Ye Liuyun who was refining medicine.
"Well, don't worry, I will stop refining medicine after the battle is over." Ye Liuyun said.
After Lin Aoxue finished speaking, she flew out of the window. Not only that, Yun Xin and He Zhiqiu also flew out. As cultivators at the Dao Palace realm, they could still withstand lightning.
"It's this lightning again, Li Jianxin, do you feel that this lightning is the same as the lightning that struck the sect and the lightning that struck us last time when we wiped out the Liuyang Mountains?" He Zhiqiu asked with a melancholy look on his face after dodging a bolt of lightning.
Yun Xin glanced at the situation in the inn. Song Shuwen and the others were lying on the ground obediently and refused to get up. The lightning did not strike them. It was exactly the same as the strange lightning phenomenon they had passed by.
"It should be, eh? Junior Sister Lin, why didn't the lightning strike you?" He Zhiqiu saw Lin Aoxue, but the lightning did not attack Lin Aoxue at all.
Lin Aoxue looked at the two people who were constantly dodging the falling lightning and smiled awkwardly.
"Ah? Well, maybe it's just my luck. Well, let's hurry up and meet up with Master and the others." Lin Aoxue didn't know how to explain, so she could only say a few perfunctory words.
Yun Xin and others looked at Lin Aoxue flying away with strange expressions.
He Zhiqiu thought about it and then came up with a hypothesis.
"Li Jianxin, tell me, does this lightning incident have anything to do with her? Otherwise, why didn't it strike her? Is it that God gave her a back door? Why?" He Zhiqiu pointed at Lin Aoxue who was flying away and asked.
After Yun Xin dodged a bolt of lightning, he sighed and followed. He Zhiqiu, who was in a daze, was struck by the lightning because he didn't react in time. This made him sober up a lot and he quickly chased after him.
As for Yun Yun and the others, they had already flown into Jianglin City, and lightning began to attack them frantically, but to no avail.
Because a large number of monks appeared in the area covered by the thunderclouds, the thunder and lightning in the sky were very frequent. Fortunately, these ordinary people were in a deep sleep, otherwise they would probably be scared to death if they saw this scene.
"This is horrible. What kind of method is this? Is it going to rain thunder? If we enter the attack range of the thunderclouds, we will probably be turned into charcoal by lightning immediately." Some monks who had never experienced the body tempering by lightning swallowed their saliva at the scene before them.
The disciples of Yunxia Sect were hiding the farthest at this time. They had experienced this several times, so they were experienced. They were all lying on the ground to prevent the thunderclouds from expanding. It would be embarrassing if they were struck by it.
However, their strange behavior is considered mysterious in the eyes of other sects.
"Look, what's happened to the people from Yunxia Sect? Why are they all lying on the ground?" Everyone looked confused.
"Who knows? This is too embarrassing, isn't it?" Some Yun Sect disciples mocked.
But in fact, as Ye Liuyun continued to refine the Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering Pill, the range of the thundercloud was constantly expanding, and soon, it spread towards them.
Sure enough, just as they were in a daze, these disciples suddenly felt uneasy, as if something was about to fall on their heads, so they all looked up at the sky.
"Eh? How come this thundercloud spread over our heads?" The disciples of Yun Sect and the other three sects were still in a daze.
However, before they could react, tens of thousands of lightning bolts fell from the sky and accurately hit the dazed practitioners.
"what……"
For a moment, everyone was screaming in pain from the electric shock. The monks who were not lying down were attacked one after another, falling from the sky and hitting the ground.
"Pfft! What's going on? Why are they attacking us too?"
Except for the disciples of Yunxia Sect, the cultivators from other sects were lying on the ground with black smoke coming out of their mouths, and they were asking questions in confusion.
When the people from the Yunxia Sect saw this scene, they all looked at them with idiotic eyes.
"Tsk, it's still unclear who will be embarrassed. Oh, I knew that the thundercloud would definitely spread to our place. My fellow brothers and sisters, I asked you to get down and lie down in advance. I was foresighted, wasn't I?" Jiang Hong said with a smile.
All the disciples of the Yunxia Sect nodded approvingly. In fact, even if Jiang Hong hadn't reminded them, they had already planned to get down and lie down.
I don’t know if there will be any monks from the Blood Demon Cult running out from behind. This is not the time to be struck by lightning. After being struck by lightning, I will be very weak for a short period of time.
If they were in a sect, many of them would be willing to rely on thunder and lightning to practice.
Lin Aoxue and the others have already met up with Yun Yun and the others, but when she arrived, all the strong men stared at Lin Aoxue with confusion, because the falling lightning from the sky did not attack Lin Aoxue, which was too strange. You know, even Fang Mingyu was not immune, but Lin Aoxue was completely immune.
"This? Little girl, why didn't the lightning strike you?" The cultivator from Yun Sect couldn't help but ask.
Lin Aoxue didn't even think about it.
"To answer your question, senior, I don't know either." Lin Aoxue could only play dumb because she couldn't explain it.
Yun Yun also quickly said to Lin Aoxue.
"Aoxue, this is the leader of the upper sect, Fang Mingyu, Sect Master Fang."
After hearing this, Lin Aoxue hurried forward and saluted Fang Mingyu.
"This disciple from the lower sect, Lin Aoxue greets Senior Fang."
When Fang Mingyu saw Lin Aoxue in front of him, he immediately showed a surprised expression, but this was not the time to think about these things.
"Well, it's indeed extraordinary. Okay, everyone, get ready to start." Fang Mingyu ordered.
As soon as Fang Mingyu finished speaking, all the strong men sped up and flew over the North City, and then used their methods without hesitation to attack the formation barrier protecting the North City.
They must know that there is a formation here. With hundreds of powerful attacks, the formation protecting the North City shattered like a mirror.
As for the officials' families living in the North City, they are all still conscious.
"What, what on earth happened? Why would the immortal cultivators attack North City? Are they going to rebel?" Wu Yingwen's face changed drastically as he looked at the immortal cultivators floating in the sky.
The North City is protected by a formation, so Lin Aoxue has no way to come over to place the pills, so she can only let them go for now.
The formation was broken, and Fang Mingyu and others went straight to a place in the north city, a place that their spiritual sense could not perceive. That must be the location of the Blood Demon Cult's headquarters, there was no doubt about it.
They had already locked onto this location. Before, Lu Wenyang was blocking the way and they had no way to get through. But now that Lu Wenyang was not there, they naturally had no concerns.
The people from the Blood Demon Cult below have also sensed the powerful energy fluctuations above.
To be precise, at the moment the thunder started falling, the elder of the Blood Demon Sect had already realized that Yun Zong and his men's attack had begun.
"Alas! After all the calculations, I still miscalculated. All the monks who can still move, listen up. The enemy has begun to attack. We have lost the best opportunity to retreat. We can only fight to the death." The elder of the Blood Demon Sect said loudly.
The people of the Blood Demon Cult all knew that they had no way to survive, so they could only fight with all their might.
Chapter 252 End (4500 words, please give me a monthly ticket)
The lightning suppressed 70% of their disciples here, which means that only 30% of them can resist now, and there is basically no hope of escape.
Not long after, the ancestor of the Yun Sect also showed up. He appeared above Jianglin City, and then used his powerful divine sense to knock out all the mortals in the North City who had not yet fallen asleep.
Originally, Yun Zong planned to knock out everyone in the city before taking action, but he didn't expect that someone had already helped them knock out most of the people.
The people from the Secret Investigation Department had already arrived at the entrance of the underground palace and opened the door, but they did not rush in. Instead, they waited for Fang Mingyu and others to arrive.
After Fang Mingyu and his companions broke the formation, they entered the North City and then arrived at the entrance of the underground palace.
