Eternal Tranquility

In war, death is always inevitable.

As the monk fell from the sky without saying a word, he turned twice and disappeared among the swarm of insects. The battlefield that seemed to be still a moment ago suddenly accelerated, and more black light was spat out by the ice crystal insects.

The black light from before circled in the air, stretched out its body, and countless claws moved rapidly in the air, rushing toward other monks.

Thousand Claws, a monster beast in the frozen north that is very similar to a centipede. It is only a few inches long, but has a pair of tentacles as sharp as a blade. No one expected that they would be hidden in the mouth of the ice crystal insect.

After a period of time, Liu Qinghuan witnessed with his own eyes how the male cultivator next to him, who was almost unsteady, could see and listen in all directions in a chaotic situation, and how he could accurately grasp the situation and strategize.

The monks, who were confused by the sudden appearance of millipedes, quickly rose to high altitude and quickly stabilized under the command of a thin voice that suddenly sounded like a ringing in their ears. Although there were still several people who were killed or injured because they didn't react for a while.

The melee continued for a while, and more Jindan monks also left the city. Compared with the endless sea of ​​​​insects, the number of monks in Jade Dragon City was probably only a fraction of the opponent's. Tie Li Lei, which was like a round boulder, was thrown out again, and the explosions sounded again.

The thousand-clawed insects suddenly abandoned the flying monks. They formed a dark cloud in the sky, and then all flew to Jade Dragon City in a dense mass.

Millyclaws differ from ice crystal bugs in that they can burrow. If they were allowed to suddenly penetrate the city wall, the monks would suffer more casualties.

But what awaited them was a sudden burst of lightning as thick as a bucket, shot out from a strange box, and everything was wiped out as it swept across the battlefield.

The moment before the thunder light was activated, all the monks had flown out of this absolute realm of death.

After that, the battle situation fell into a stalemate, and in the chaos, Liu Qinghuan saw Mo Qianli and two other late-stage Jindan monks disappearing into the distance.

Orders were accurately conveyed one after another. Although these orders could be conveyed through flags, drums, and manpower, the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and each order could be related to countless lives, which was far less fast than a sound transmission spell.

Because he spent a lot of mental energy, Sanwen Zhenren's complexion, which had just improved, began to darken rapidly again. The hidden injury in his body was on the verge of exploding, and he couldn't take care of it at this time.

Liu Qinghuan originally wanted to go out and help kill the monsters, but he couldn't leave under such circumstances. He could only use the Qi of Qingmu to comb and moisten his meridians from time to time to prevent this person from consuming him to death first.

The insect wave lasted for two full days, during which time several thousand clawed insects that could penetrate the Gengjin Formation entered the city. Fortunately, there were not many in number, and they were all killed after taking some damage.

On the third day, the swarm of insects suddenly became chaotic and began to run around mindlessly.

Seeing this, Sanwen breathed a sigh of relief and fell unsteadily back into the soft chair behind him. Although tired, he looked better than before.

Liu Qinghuan was meditating at the side, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the other party standing in front of him.

He asked doubtfully: "Huh?"

Sanwen's probing gaze was undisguised, and his dark jade-like eyes seemed to be able to see people from the inside out at a glance.

They had been focusing on the situation on the battlefield before, and the two of them basically didn't talk, each doing their own thing. As soon as the battle ended, Sanwen's attention was all focused on him.

After a silent look at each other, the other party finally spoke, cupped his hands and said in a salute: "My surname is Yan and my name is Jing, and I have three questions about my Taoist number. I would like to thank my fellow Taoist for your generous help this time."

Liu Qinghuan stood up and returned the greeting: "Wen Shi sent Liu Qinghuan, his Taoist name is Qingmu, fellow Taoists, you're welcome."

He glanced out the window. At this time, the insect swarm collapsed, followed by countless excited monks chasing after them and collecting the killed ice crystal insects and millipedes.

He asked: "The insect mother was killed?"

Yan Jing also looked out the window: "It should be so... Fellow Taoist, are you worried about Fellow Taoist Fuyao?"

Liu Qinghuan turned to look at him, and the other party chuckled and said, "Don't worry, they will be fine."

At this time, several Jindan monks pushed in the door and greeted the two people in the room casually while lying facelessly on the chairs.

After a while, the cave was filled with Jindan monks, and everyone was talking and laughing, filled with joy and relaxation after winning the battle.

Liu Qinghuan quickly said goodbye to these people and returned to his temporary cave.

He first went to the three snowmen, but found that they were not there. He turned to ask Ye Cai'er and found out that they were wandering around in Jade Dragon City these days and had a good time.

Ye Cai'er asked him about the monsters attacking the city. Seeing that he looked tired, he stopped asking more questions and just told him to go and rest.

A few days later, Mo Qianli returned to the city and brought a storage bag: "This is your reward for participating in the war."

Liu Qinghuan untied it and found that there were a lot of ice crystal insect skins and silkworms inside, as well as some millipedes. He smiled and said: "There are quite a lot."

Mo Qianli chuckled: "Otherwise, who would be willing to stay in a bitter and cold place like Jade Dragon City? Every time a monster attacks, everyone who participated will get a share. Well, but half of what you get must be kept. Maintain the operation of Jade Dragon City and so on.”

Liu Qinghuan said with great interest: "Is this how those large equipment and the like came to be?"

"There are some, but most of them are from the Immortal Cultivation Alliance. Those things are for big people who eat spiritual stones, and ordinary people can't afford them." Mo Qianli said: "I heard that there were no such things in Jade Dragon City before. Later, the three questions It was only after my Taoist friends came that I slowly studied it.”

"What is this man's background?"

"I'm not sure. Anyway, as far as I know, the other party was sent directly by the Immortal Cultivation Alliance and has been here for nearly a hundred years."

Liu Qinghuan asked thoughtfully: "There should be Nascent Soul monks in charge of Jade Dragon City, right?"

"Yes, there are three of them! But they won't show up unless it's critical."

"Then it is this Sandao Friend who calls the shots in the city now?"

Mo Qianli said: "Haha, I don't have that spare time! He will only come out when such a large-scale monster attacks the city. The person who manages the daily affairs is fellow Taoist Wanhua. Oh, you are very fond of him. interest?"

Seeing his friend looking for gossip, Liu Qinghuan laughed and threw out an invitation.

Mo Qianli immediately picked it up and exclaimed: "No! The iceberg has blossomed, and he actually invited you to drink tea! I have been here for more than ten years, and I have never received an invitation from him, let alone drank tea together!" "

Liu Qinghuan called Xiao Hei and threw all the millipedes to him as snacks. After he finished shouting, he said, "You can follow me."

Mo Qianli shrugged and threw the invitation on the table: "I'm not going! That man has so many eyes like a sieve. Every time I'm looked at by him, I feel like I'm not wearing any clothes, so I don't want to be uncomfortable. ”

He came over and said, "Hey, why did he call you?"

"Probably to help treat his injuries." Liu Qinghuan said: "By the way, do you know how he was injured?"
