Chapter 710 Sudden Crisis
As a new member, if you plant the Yuanshen Restriction right after joining, life and death are in your hands.
It is difficult for people to accept it because of emotion and reason, and it will cause resistance.
After all, to some extent, opt-in is also a kind of trust.
If such an extreme method is adopted, over time, morals will be separated, and it will be difficult to have trust between the organization and its members.
Therefore, Liu Yu's control method is only to imprint a special method's imprint on his golden core.
With this seal, combined with specific spells, the whereabouts of the sealee can be tracked at any time.
This special imprint is extremely strong, and it is probably a method deduced by the great monks of the Purple Scarf Army. Once it is planted, it will be extremely difficult to get rid of it, unless the Nascent Soul Zhenjun takes action.
However, ordinary Nascent Soul True Monarchs may not be able to completely eliminate them.
Of course, Jindan members have access to more things, and the danger of betrayal is even greater.
So like Liu Yu joining the Commoner League, it is also necessary to hand over a drop of blood.
With a special mark, plus a drop of blood, the location can be tracked and locked by various means.
Even if you can escape for a while, you can never escape for a lifetime.
After all, it is impossible to send masters to protect the traitors all the time even if it is to buy horse bones for thousands of dollars in the Holy Land of Qianting.
Under the pursuit and killing of various radical casual cultivators, it is very difficult for any organization's betrayer to end well in the end, and often they do not end well.
It is difficult to save their lives after betrayal, and under the constant worry all day long, any monk whose faith is shaken has to repeatedly weigh the pros and cons, and dare not do it lightly.
In this way, the occurrence of this behavior is effectively reduced.
According to Liu Yu's understanding, Ming Jing, the Nascent Soul cultivator who "killed his teacher and rebelled", has long been on the must-kill lists of major casual cultivators.
It was only because he fled to "Shenjing", the place where the influence of the casual cultivator organization was the weakest, that he temporarily saved his life.
It can be foreseen that once he steps out of Shenjing, or the defense of Qianting is lax, there will definitely be masters of casual cultivators trying to take his life!
The special mark can be removed, but with a drop of blood essence in hand, you can still use divination, pull the machine and other means to determine the location!
Not every cultivator can directly use Lingbao to cut off the connection like him!
"Hong has a mission, and he did it as a last resort. I hope Fellow Daoist Lu Yi will not be offended."
"excuse me."
After planting a special imprint on the golden elixir and collecting a drop of its blood essence, Liu Yu gently cupped his hands and apologized again.
"It's okay, Hong Daoyou is serious."
"In the context of the organization, I can understand it."
Although he was somewhat reluctant, Lu Yi still felt much better after hearing Liu Yu's repeated reassurance, and immediately cupped his hands to express that he didn't care.
By handing over the essence and blood to plant a special imprint, this person can be regarded as officially joining the association and becoming a member of the Golden Core of the Purple Scarf Army.
The next communication was naturally much more enjoyable.
"From now on, we are the real "fellow people"!"
"Fellow Daoist Lu, stand still here and wait for the organization's notice."
After some chatting, half an hour passed without knowing it, and Liu Yu said solemnly before leaving.
"I understand, I will wait for the order of the organization at any time."
Having said that, Lu Yi looked at Liu Yu with a very polite attitude.
After all, as a member of the organization, he is theoretically controlled by it now, and the two parties are in a superior-subordinate relationship.
"it is good!"
After a few words of politeness, Liu Yu smiled brightly, and took Guo Poyun and the others to leave.
Loose Cultivator Golden Core Lu Yi successfully recruited the task of adding five new Golden Core members, and finally made some progress, completing one-fifth of it.
"Whizzing"
Outside the cave, there were several bursting sounds, and the place quickly returned to calm.
"Whether it was the last time to win over the Feng family, or this time to win over Lu Yi, they all did it after they had all kinds of favorable conditions and had enough confidence."
"But the results of the two operations ended up being very different."
"The most critical factor is that one is from the Xiuxian family, and the other is from the identity of casual cultivators."
On the way home, Liu Yu secretly thought about the whole story of the two actions, and summed up why he failed last time.
"The Xiuxian family has a blood bond, and generally has a fixed resource point. The living environment is much better than that of casual cultivators. The difficulty of attracting the two is not the same."
"It seems that in the future, we will still focus on attracting casual cultivators."
After serious thinking, he thought silently in his heart.
Closing the gap in difficulty made Liu Yu's balance further tilted towards casual cultivators.
He was keenly aware that if he wanted to complete the task as soon as possible, it would eventually fall on the casual repairman.
As for the Immortal Cultivation Family or the Immortal Cultivation Sect, it would take manpower and material resources, and the chance of success in the end is not high.
Unless there is a particularly suitable target, it is better to have less contact.
It is the most correct choice to focus most of your energy on the casual cultivator group.
"Guo Daoyou, according to Gu's opinion"
Thinking this way, Liu Yu sent a voice transmission to Guo Poyun to exchange his views on the mission.
The order of the Presbyterian Council made it clear that the latter was just a deputy, and he was very clear about his position, and he just wanted to take credit for it.
Therefore, for Liu Yu's decision, he often agreed to it.
What's more, the expansion plan of the Purple Scarf Army was originally focused on casual cultivators, and the Xiuxian family and Xiuxian sect were only incidental.
At this time, further determining the focus of the task and reducing investment in the other side can effectively improve the efficiency of the task, so there is naturally no reason not to agree.
Therefore, with only a few words on the way home, the next strategic focus has been determined, and it will be implemented immediately after returning.
Soon after, the group returned to the stronghold to routinely summarize the factors for the success of the operation.
Liu Yu and Guo Poyun immediately announced the plan to adjust the strategic focus.
It is required to divide the helm up and down, reduce contact with the Xiuxian family and Xiuxian sect, and focus on casual cultivation.
Of course, he did not forget the agreement, publicly affirmed Tian Xiaoyu's important role in it, gave a very good evaluation, and paved the way for future "promotion and reuse".
With the adjustment of the strategic focus, the operation was completely over after the meeting was adjourned.
In the rumbling flames of war, the Zijin Army and other casual repair organizations expanded in a low-key manner. When the sub-heads put most of their energy on the casual repair group, the efficiency has indeed improved a lot.
Two tenths, three, four.
In this case, the task progress is steadily advancing.
After the initial exploration, it was much smoother than before, ushering in a period of stable development.
Of course, the whole process was by no means smooth sailing.
Qian Ting has not come to the door yet, because the expansion of the sub-rudder is too fast, touching the territory of other casual repair organizations, and frictions and conflicts, large and small, are inevitable.
After all, the left wing is infinitely divisible, each organization has its own interests, and there are often discords due to various reasons.
But Liu Yu came forward, showed his strength a little, and successfully deterred the major organizations to solve the problem.
However, considering all aspects, he just taught him a little lesson.
After all, at this time, the holy land of Qianting is the biggest enemy. If the "own people" fight first, it would be really ridiculous.
……
Five years is an extremely long time for mortals and low-level monks.
But for the [-]-year limit lifespan of a Jindan cultivator, one retreat is not enough time, as if it is just a snap of the fingers.
After adjusting the strategic focus five years ago, the expansion of the Purple Turban Army has achieved very good results, and the current task progress is barely over half.
Even the Jindan cultivator has successfully recruited three people. If things go on like this, it is very hopeful that it will be completed in a few years.
Without exception, these are all Golden Core Loose Cultivators.
Considering the objective conditions and the first failure of the Feng family, Liu Yu basically had no hope of winning over the Xiuxian family and the Xiuxian sect.
Therefore, during the five years, the focus was all on Jindan casual cultivation.
In order to prevent the leak of news, Liu Yu moved his base out of Xiancheng early in the first year of his arrival in Dongzhou, and hid it in a low-key manner on a third-order spiritual vein found by the Purple Scarf Army.
The sub-helm headquarters is also established here.
Although it is only an ordinary third-order spiritual vein, Liu Yu's daily practice of taking pills will not affect the speed of his cultivation.
However, Guo Poyun had already reached the peak of Jindan, and all he had left was to hone his mana, and his reliance on spiritual energy was also greatly reduced, so he had no complaints.
"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist of the Ancient City. According to this speed, I will be able to return to the Zixia Mountains in a few years!"
In the sub-rudder headquarters, in a two-story attic, Guo Poyun said with a smile on his face.
At this time, shortly after the end of a joint operation, three Golden Core Loose Cultivators had been recruited, and the mission was progressing very smoothly.
The most critical difficulty has been solved, and it is not difficult to win over the peripheral members of Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment, it is only a matter of time.
Another resource is about to come in hand, and this person is naturally very happy.
"Happy together."
"The current trend, I hope to maintain it."
"Continue to mobilize the Jindan Taoist friends who have joined, to meet more fellow Taoists, that's it"
Liu Yu talked eloquently and continued to talk about the next plan.
It is impossible for every Golden Core cultivator to appear out of thin air. They all have their own rich experiences and the friends they met during those experiences.
With a friend recommendation, it is naturally much easier to approach the target, and it is also easier to gain trust, which greatly reduces the difficulty of the task.
Therefore, shortly after winning over Lu Yi five years ago, Liu Yu sent Guo Poyun to persuade Lu Yi to get acquainted with two other Jindan casual cultivators successively with the help of his relationship in the casual cultivator.
After a period of contact and trust, the showdown was achieved without exception.
"Well, don't worry, Fellow Daoist of the Ancient City, Mr. Guo knows what to do."
Guo Poyun nodded.
Finishing tasks early also gives you more time to prepare for the baby.
As he grows older, he doesn't have much time to waste. When the time comes, no matter whether he is fully prepared or not, he must attack the baby bottleneck.
In the attic, the two sipped tea and had a long talk, discussing in detail the next actions of the sub-helm.
"Um?!"
But suddenly, Liu Yu's complexion changed, and he got up abruptly.
The consciousness of more than 150 miles spread out in an instant.
Just because just now, his spiritual sense was far sharper than that of monks in the same realm, and suddenly he felt a vague sense of crisis, as if some danger was approaching.
Guo Poyun looked at Liu Yu's movements, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, but then he realized something, and his face suddenly became serious.
"bang bang bang"
"Boom"
In the next breath, a huge roar came to my ears one after another.
The ground under his feet trembled slightly.
"Enemy attack!!!"
The ear-piercing alarm, only half a beat slower than the roar, spread to every corner of the stronghold.
The monk in charge of vigilance used magic sound transmission to remind loudly.
In Liu Yu's spiritual consciousness, one after another monks kept approaching, and their targets pointed directly at the stronghold where everyone was hiding.
In addition, there are Tier [-] Spirit Ships, which are majestic in appearance, cold and terrifying, and bring a strong sense of oppression.
A cursory glance at the spiritual sense revealed that there were at least 300 attacking monks, all of whom were wearing powerful standard magic weapons.
There is also a large group of monks who are uniformly dressed and have faintly connected breaths, who are suspected to be Dao soldiers.
"Five third-tier spirit ships, seven Jindan monks, and five of them are Jinwuwei."
"As expected of the Purple Scarf Army, they are indeed valued by Qianting. It is just an ordinary stronghold, but it is actually dealt with with such a large battle."
Observing the situation clearly, this thought flashed in Liu Yu's mind.
Ignoring those Tier [-] and Tier [-] spirit ships, and soldiers in the realm of Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment, he focused on observing the number of Jindan monks, Tier [-] spirit ships, and incoming Dao soldiers.
You know, on the bright side of the Dongzhou sub-rudder, there are only two ordinary golden elixir.
Counting the three Lu Yi who were recruited later, there are only five Jindan monks.
But Qianting sent seven golden elixirs, five third-tier spirit ships, and an expensive Taoist soldier.
Among them, the five "Golden Guards" have the lowest cultivation level in the late Golden Core Stage, and even the third-tier low-rank spirit ships can basically reach the third-tier level with all-out attack.
It can be seen from this that Qianting is determined to encircle and suppress the Zijin Army.
"Qian Ting is really generous, you don't want to wait for me to survive!"
Observing the situation of the attacking monks, Guo Poyun took a breath and his face changed drastically.
With this lineup, if he faced it head-on, he would have no choice but to fight to the death.
Only through layers of selection can one become a Jinwu Guard, and each one is the best in the same class.
Guo Poyun used his own strength to defeat at most one Jinwu Guard.
And there were five people at the scene, as well as five third-tier spirit ships, and the assistance of two golden cores!
However, after Liu Yu swept his consciousness and found no shadow of Zhenjun Yuanying, although his expression was still dignified, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
This lineup is indeed strong, but it can't keep him.
With Liu Yu's current strength, as long as he doesn't encounter Zhenjun Yuanying, or a monk who ranks extremely high on the real person list, there is basically no danger.
How about more?Still can't make up for the quality gap!
Therefore, although he had a slight sense of crisis in his spiritual sense, it was very weak.
"It seems that today, the stronghold here may be difficult to preserve."
"Fortunately, by hiding his identity, Qianting misjudged his strength, and the three Jindan casual cultivators he recruited are not in the stronghold."
"Otherwise, all members of Golden Core will perish, and we may have to start all over again."
During the crisis, Liu Yu flashed this thought.
Although it is not difficult to defeat the attacking monks one by one with his own strength, he does not intend to do so.
First, there is Qianting standing behind the attacking monks, and beheading all the incoming monks this time, wouldn't it make Qianting pay more attention to himself?
In this case, the next time, maybe Yuanying Zhenjun will be sent directly.
Second, the Jinwu Guard is not weak, and this time the lineup is indeed strong.
Even if he wants to solve it, it will take a while, and accidents will easily happen after a long time.
This is too high-profile, not in line with his prudent style of acting, and not in line with his own interests.
So this idea just passed in my mind and was abandoned.
"If you want to resolve the immediate crisis head-on, you can only use the "Sword of Destruction"."
"Other than that, there is no other way."
Thinking of this, Liu Yu has already made a decision, and immediately said in a deep voice:
"Guo Daoyou, the enemy is too powerful to fight against, we will split up and get out, and then contact the hidden stronghold."
The opponent's escape speed is not slow, and his own strength is not weak, so it is impossible to confront him head-on, but the chance of saving his life is not small.
"Friends of the ancient city, take care!"
Guo Poyun cupped his hands heavily, then slammed into the attic with a dodge, and fled to the left of the stronghold with all his strength to restrain his spiritual pressure.
Before that, Liu Yu's figure had disappeared from the attic.
It was too late to say it and then it was too fast. The many thoughts of the two seemed to be long, but in fact it happened in a short breath.
"bang bang bang"
In the next breath, another round of attacks came, the roar in the ear became more and more obvious, and the vibration of the ground became more and more violent.
Even the most unresponsive monks knew that something serious had happened, and their expressions changed drastically.
Turning pale in horror, they came outside the cave, seeing the huge spirit ship approaching rapidly, they all felt a sense of imminent disaster.
……
"Whoosh~"
More than 20 miles away from the stronghold, there is a 24 feet long, [-] feet high, and a dark spirit ship.
Two Jinwu Guards in golden spiritual armor and golden masks had a metallic icy luster all over their bodies.
Leaning on the fence and looking at the stronghold within the protection of the formation, there was no slight fluctuation in their eyes, as if they were the most ruthless killing machines.
The cultivation bases of both of them have reached the peak of Jindan!
Seeing that the formation was already crumbling under two rounds of attacks, the taller Jinwu Guard waved down his command flag again.
This wave is like a death sentence!
The next moment, all the monks and spirit ships launched an attack together.
Wind and rain, thunder and lightning, fire, frost.
The five third-tier spirit ships moved at the same time, launching various attacks with different attributes and forms. They all blasted towards the sub-rudder stronghold protected by the light curtain, without deliberately keeping alive.
There is no doubt that although the forms of attack are different, the efficiency of the use of spiritual power of the three spirit ships has reached a very high level, which is not much worse than that of spells of the same level.
After 10,000+ years of development, the skill of refining spirit ships has become very mature.
At the same time, Qianting Golden Pills also made their moves one after another, casting third-order spells to attack the formation light curtain.
As for the strongest magic weapons and supernatural powers, they are stored in their hands but not released. Once the golden elixir of the Purple Scarf Army emerges, it will usher in a thunderous blow!
The second round of attacks has just passed, and the third round of attacks is yet to come.
Under the overwhelming force, the formation guarding the sub-rudder headquarters is already crumbling!
Tian Xiaoyu was locked on by his spiritual consciousness, and Liu Yu used the "shine spirit secret technique" to catch this woman in his hand before the third round of attack came.
At the same time, his lips opened and closed silently, and all the sub-helm members present at Transsion:
"Qanting is overwhelming, all comrades retreat separately."
"After confirming your own safety, do not act privately and wait for the organization to contact you!"
As for the communication jade token, Liu Yu had just tried it, but as expected, he couldn't send any information.
Presumably, the "Thousand Machine Ball" or similar special magic weapon has blocked the communication in this area.
