Chapter 60: Three Sacred Ridges? "What's going on with you guys? Where did you go to have fun again?" The Yunding Palace was suspended above the wilderness. Jing Xiao stood in front of the palace gate and shouted. The three huge cities in the Southern Continent were built by the Jing family after they fought and killed several fourth-level demon saints and gathered the human race from all over the wilderness. The two clans of Li County guarded the Northern Wasteland City, the Danyang County camp and the Black Mountain Zhu clan guarded the Central Wasteland City, and the Wu clan, which had no exchanges with the four clans, was left alone to guard the Southern Wasteland City. The North and Central cities have been completely handed over, the four clans have been rotated, and the original Jing army has also returned to the Heavenly Palace, standing beside Master Jingxiao, waiting for the Southern City garrison troops to retreat together. Who would have thought that in this great city in the southern wilderness, everyone came up empty-handed. After asking the soldiers guarding the city, they learned that the Taoist army in the city had gone to the wilderness in the west. The crowd waited and waited for three whole days before they saw this Taoist army. I saw two magic ships appearing crookedly from the cotton-white ground. One was a tower ship and the other was a ramming warship similar to a battleship. At this moment, both of them looked tattered. The building ship seemed to have suffered heavy damage, with dents of various sizes all over it, and the battleship had two large holes with a diameter of several meters pierced through its hull, and several large cracks of more than ten feet appeared on the golden skin. The Taoist soldiers on the two magic ships also hung their heads, looking demoralized. It was obvious that they had failed miserably and returned in defeat! this. Hearing this scolding, the mages on the two ships raised their eyebrows and looked at each other, wondering how to respond. How come the clan leader was caught right after they had just suffered a defeat? "Zongzi!"
"A few days ago, the city visited the villages in the Great Wilderness and found that people were often missing nearby. The two of us followed the clues and found a demon nest more than 20,000 miles west of the Southern Wilderness." "That demon nest calls itself the Three Sacred Mountains. Three old demons call themselves the rulers. They have 48,000 demon soldiers under their command and occupy an area of more than 8,000 miles. Their subordinates are engaged in human trafficking!" "We thought that none of the families in Dongzhou had any outstanding alchemists, so we decided to go to the demon nest for our descendants before leaving. But we didn't expect that the Three Sacred Ridge was much harder to defeat than we thought. The three kings, the Green Lion Spirit, the Yellow Fanged Old Elephant, and the Chaos Golden Roc, were all old demon kings who had lived for many years." "This battle lasted for three whole months. The 100,000 grass spirits and wood spirits under my command were all swallowed up by the green lion spirit. The ramming warship was almost taken away by the old roc, and the purple spirit ship was pierced through by the old yellow-fanged elephant." A wizard in a silver robe emerged from the deck of the ship. Although his face looked grim, he stood very straight, lowered his eyes, bowed, and reported the situation in detail. The 100,000 grass spirits and wood spirits they had raised over the years were swallowed up by the mountain-like old monster Green Lion. How could the two of them swallow this breath? They led their troops to fight with the demon army. The battle lasted for several months, and half of the 800 soldiers and monks were killed, and the time for the handover was delayed. Now the two of them didn't know how to face the eldest son of the clan or how to explain to the clan! "Master, I can't wait for the handover. I want to lead another 500 regular soldiers to conquer the Three Sacred Mountains. Otherwise, with such a huge loss, I will be speechless in front of the elders of the clan." A black-bearded Taoist priest on the ship started to cry loudly to Master Jingxiao before he even got off the ship. The magic weapons and wood spirits that the two had accumulated for more than ten years were wiped out in one battle. More than half of the five hundred soldiers and three hundred righteous paths were lost. Many of the Taoists among them were branches of the clan! How could the two of them dare to return to Jiuzhou at this moment? How could they swallow this anger? Jing Xiao wanted to reprimand him, but when he saw the black-bearded Taoist priest crying and shouting "uncle" in a shrill voice, his face turned dark. "Didn't I warn you long ago that Zhan Xiu had withdrawn to Jiuzhou half a year ago? I told you to just protect the human race in the Great Wilderness. You must not leave!" These bastards, do they really think that their mediocre skills can take down the entire Yuntu? If it weren't for the seven great magicians of the Jing family and two hundred Gangsha who were in righteous cultivation, using elite troops and tactics to sweep away all the holes and completely pacify Dongzhou, would it have been so easy to pacify it? Would he have needed to set up the game again and again? "Get back here, you bastard. All the tribes will go back to Jiuzhou to rest. Here, let the nine families in the three counties of Penglai rotate for ten years." "I'll deal with you when I get back!" True Lord Jingxiao's eyes were majestic and his expression gradually became cold. He raised his hand and directly grabbed the two magic boats. In the perspective of the cultivators on the two boats, the palm he raised suddenly expanded and covered the dark clouds for a hundred miles. Before he could speak, the giant palm that covered the sky turned into the Five Finger Mountain and smashed down. The cultivators only felt a blackness before their eyes and immediately lost consciousness. As the saying goes, the universe is in your sleeves, the sun and the moon are in the pot, this is the magical power of Yu Dao - the art of Hu Tian! The only confidant arranged by Nanzhanbuzhou gave him a surprise right away, and he pulled a big ball of shit in front of the Jing clan and the Fuyao Wu clan. It really makes him proud!
The True Lords haven't made a move for several years. Are the demons from the various continents starting to stir again? The Green Lion, the Old Elephant, and the Sky-Eagle? The old demons from the three continents are of the same blood. I'm afraid that Xihe Niuzhou is even more chaotic! After forcibly taking away the two camps of Taoist soldiers, Master Jingxiao's face was slightly tense. After thinking for a moment, he instructed Wu Yong: "Master of the Wu family, if there is a demon nest in the Great Wilderness, please send scouts to investigate. You can send more intelligence to Dongzhou, and they will find a way to deal with it." "You don't have to force your move. You just need to guard the three deserted cities. In the next ten years, all the output inside and outside the Southern Deserted City will belong to you!" "I have to go to Xiheniuzhou and give some instructions." After leaving only two brief instructions, Master Jingxiao took Yun Palace and headed straight to the west, leaving only a patch of white in the sky. The urgency of the handover and the lack of momentum made all the Wu family members abandon Yun Palace. Didn’t they wait for three days in vain? Wu Yong shook his head helplessly, waved his right hand at everyone, and issued an order: "Go to the city first!" There was no handover at all. There was only a team of soldiers waiting at the door outside the huge Nanhuang city. When they saw the rotation and handover was completed, they hurried over to greet them. "Chang Immortal!" "I am the chief of defense of the Southern Wasteland, and I have come here specially to take orders from the Immortal Lord." A sturdy middle-aged soldier at the head of the military team came up to Wu Yong and the others and bowed. "Very good!" "Well, what should we, the Taoist army, do here? Your immortal leader was defeated and was directly captured by Master Jingxiao, but there was no handover at all!" While asking, Wu Yong took out a green bamboo leaf from his sleeve with his right hand, pinched it with two fingers, opened his thin lips, and exhaled lightly towards the green leaf. Instantly, the decayed bamboo leaf turned into a magical thing, and turned into a green boat of more than ten feet. When everyone saw Wu Yong slightly raising his left finger, they immediately understood what he meant and lined up one by one to board the Dharma Boat in an orderly manner. "My Lord, your duty is to protect the seventy-six townships in this city. There are 160,000 people in Nanhuang City, and there are nearly a million people in the seventy-six townships under your command." "There are 2,600 military monks in the city, and each village has its own guard team. On weekdays, they can still drive away evil. However, if they encounter a disaster or a strange thing, the immortal must take action." "There is a city government in the city, which is for the immortal to live in. There are hundreds of city officials under the city government, who are responsible for handling miscellaneous affairs and will not disturb the immortal's meditation. Each village has a village official who can also decide the affairs of the village and report to the city." The old soldier Xiu was very patient and explained everything to Wu Yong step by step, starting from the population, city system, and powers. While Wu Yong was watching the Taoist army boarding the Dharma boat, he was also listening to the soldier's detailed introduction. "Okay, follow me into the treasure boat and take a look at the surrounding situation." Wu Yong raised his hand to interrupt Bing Xiu's introduction and asked him to get on the Dharma Boat first before discussing in detail. The middle-aged soldier hesitated for a moment before waving his hand at the team behind him, telling them to do a good job of patrolling. He himself followed Wu Yong onto the Dharma Boat. When the Dharma Boat rose up, Wu Yong stood at the bow, Wu Xuan, Wu Changgui, Yan Yunyue, Cui Yaer, You Xue stood behind him, and the middle-aged soldier stood on one side and explained the Southern Wilderness City in detail. "So, in this Southern Continent, the distribution of the Great Wilderness people is mainly centered around the three deserted cities? No, the deserted cities were built later, so the radiating villages are the way of survival for most of the Great Wilderness people." "The village soldiers led by the village men defended the land, while the deserted city patrolled and guarded against the monsters and beasts in the western wilderness." Well, it is indeed a very primitive system! "You are a soldier cultivator. How strong are your soldiers? Can they defend their homeland on a daily basis?" Wu Yong raised his eyebrows and suddenly asked about Bing Xiu. "The way of the warrior is difficult to cultivate, but one can still fight against small demons and monsters. Those with strong physiques can even fight against demons several feet in size." "However, we are indeed a little powerless against the evil spirits and some demon generals who are good at using magic. Immortal cultivators must take action!"
The middle-aged soldier thought about his wording and answered all of Wu Yong's questions. "Then, about the Three Sacred Mountains, tell me about them! How about the Green Lion Demon, the Yellow-fanged Old Elephant, and the Golden Roc of Chaos?" Wu Yong asked casually. This question made the middle-aged soldier look pale, and he bowed and begged Wu Yong. "Master, Master, please do not offend the Three Saints!" "The Three Saints are gods who have existed on our land for hundreds of years! They are mountain gods and earth gods, and they are the protectors of this land." "You can't offend them. You can't anger the Three Saints. Otherwise, you will be punished by the heavens. The whole earth will be punished by the heavens. You can't do that." When the soldier mentioned the Three Sacred Mountains, his tone became excited, with a mixture of fear and piety, but also a bit mysterious. Wu Xuan, You Xue and the others immediately looked at him with strange expressions, especially Wu Xuan, who sneered: "I heard that the demons and ghosts in this world like to eat humans and their own kind. Have you ever heard of such a barbaric and stupid man-eating god?" "Three Saints, Three Saints, it's different. Those people are all volunteers." The middle-aged soldier was about to jump up and down as if his tail had been stepped on, but in the end, he seemed to lose the confidence. "Oh? Then why did those magicians and immortals fight with the Three Holy Mountains? Didn't you try to stop them and dissuade them?" Wu Yong's expression became calmer and he asked in a gentle voice, but there was one more thing he didn't say. Did you choose to worship the so-called Three Saints and betray those two wizards? "The Immortal Master did not communicate with us, and we did not know that they were going to offend the Three Saints. If, if we knew, we would definitely dissuade them and not let the Immortal Master destroy the stability of the Great Wilderness!" said the middle-aged soldier firmly. The three saints that have been sung in the wilderness for hundreds of years? Mountain gods? Earth gods? Guardian gods? I'm afraid it's a monster that has been rampant in the wilderness for hundreds of years? No one can control it, no one can control it, so it has this reputation. Wu Yong and his companions suddenly looked at each other. This Great Wilderness was a mixture of humans and monsters. It seemed that the people here also had some big problems! They feared the old demon as if he were a god and worshipped him. How dare the Jing family use them as helpers? Aren't they afraid of being connived at and backstabbed by this wild human demon? He drove the boat around the city, circled the huge city, and memorized the surrounding terrain in his mind. While asking the middle-aged soldier questions, he observed the city's defense facilities. "Cui Ya'er, go to the city and see what's going on with the people in the Great Wilderness. Why do they treat the Lion Camel Three Sacred Ridge like this? Could it be that they have been tamed?" I am not very satisfied with this chapter, so I made some minor changes to the details. (End of this chapter)
