Ancestor Above

Letting the strong wind blow his clothes, Zhao Zhengke stood on the bow of the flying boat, his eyes looking at the Yuyan Mountain surrounded by the mountain protection formation in front of him.

This scene is a bit familiar, more than 30 years ago, when they last hit Jade Mist Mountain, it was like this. The cultivators of the Zhao family took a flying boat to the Jade Mist Mountain, broke through the mountain protection formation, and then rushed in to burn, kill and loot.

This time, it might even be easier.

Although the Lu family now has an Qiming cultivator, Lu Chaoxi, he is only a person from the Qiming period, and Zhao Zhengke doesn't care about it at all. He is a monk on the sixth floor of Qiming, and he can completely crush with hard power. Moreover, the Lu family's Jade Mist Mountain was still a fourth-order spiritual vein, and the mountain protection formation was also a fourth-order level. If it wasn't for the fact that there were only a few foundation-building cultivators in the Lu family back then, and they couldn't exert the full power of the great formation, it would have been really difficult for them to attack. Even so, more than 30 years ago, in order to enter the Jade Mist Mountain, they spent a year and a half at the foot of the mountain, and finally they boiled the Lu family cultivator to the point where their spiritual power was exhausted, and then they were bestowed by Zhao Laozu. A fourth-order incantation of the talisman, with a hammering of the hammer, just broke the great formation.

Now, Jade Mist Mountain is only a second-order spiritual vein, and the mountain protection formation is also a second-order level that was later rebuilt. Even if there is a Qiming cultivator in charge, it is much easier to break it than it was back then.

Zhao's flying boat, thousands of meters before the mountain protection formation, slowly stopped and lowered its height.

Zhao Zhengke raised his hand, called out a white crane, mounted it and flew up, reaching the front of the mountain protection formation, aroused his spiritual power, and shouted into the Jade Mist Mountain:

"Lu Chaoxi! Come out and die!"

The voice echoed in the mountains, but there was no response.

After waiting for a while, he shouted again: "Are you ready to be a tortoise?! I'll give you a fair chance to fight, just you and me. If you win, my Zhao family will retire. Do you dare to come out? "

Lu Chaoxi, who heard these words in the mountains, really hesitated for a while.

Lu Mingchao, who was beside him, saw his brother's mentality, and quickly persuaded: "Don't fall for the trick, don't ignore the strength gap between the two of you, you will definitely not win; what's more, he may not be able to win. I will fight you, once you go out, once you are besieged, kill you first and then attack the big formation, what can we do?"

"Well, I won't be confused." Lu Chaoxi calmed down, he was just a little angry just now, even if his sister didn't remind him, he couldn't really jump out to find death.

Zhao Zhengke, who was outside, saw that he couldn't deceive anyone, and he was not too disappointed. He wanted to try it originally, but he didn't think Lu Chaoxi was really that stupid.

The next day, Zhao's offensive gradually began.

Three artillery-like things were erected. This thing is called 'Breaking Formation Cannon', and it looks quite similar to the cannon before Lu Qing's crossing - it's a long, thick barrel anyway.

This is an artifact jointly created by an alchemist and a magician. It is quite expensive, cumbersome and difficult to control. Although the power is not bad, it is only aimed at the formation, and it is completely impractical to use it in the battle between monks. much weaker.

However, when playing formations, especially large-scale formations such as the Great Defense Array, the 'Breaking Formation Cannon' is much more powerful.

High-level Item Refiners and Array Mage have to put a lot of effort into creating this special magic item. The refiner is responsible for the gun body and the construction of the gun mount that carries the formation, while the formation master needs to implement the technology of reverse destroying the formation on the formation-breaking gun.

The gun barrel is engraved with the formation and the divine pattern, and is placed on a square gun mount. The gun barrel is actually not that important, but the gun mount below is the real body. The spirit stone is reproduced in it, and several connection points constructed with special mana threads are also extended, which needs to be directly controlled by cultivators.

Three formation-breaking cannons, one large and one small, the larger one is a third-order formation-breaking cannon. This cannon can be worth 30,000 spirit stones, and if one cannon is fired, hundreds of thousands of spirit stones will be burned. ; And the two small ones are second-order smashing cannons, and the cost is tens of thousands.

The two foundation-building cultivators each controlled a second-order smashing cannon, and there were many qi-training cultivators nearby to assist, while Zhao Zhengke himself controlled the third-order one.

Following Zhao Zhengke's order, the artillery fire roared, and three groups of spiritual power light groups exploded fiercely on the mountain protection formation of Yuyan Mountain.

The white cloud and mist protecting the Jade Mist Mountain, a violent surge, was even penetrated by the third-order broken formation, and the scene on the Jade Mist Mountain behind was faintly visible.

Lu Chaoxi and others, who were in charge of the formation on the mountain, quickly activated the formation, and the spiritual energy in the spiritual veins was mobilized, quickly filling the gap.

But after half an hour of silence, there were three more cannon shots, and under a salvo, there was another violent fluctuation in the mountain protection formation.

"According to this trend... Even if we do our best to resist, we can only hold on for three days at most."

Lu Chao and himself are Array Masters. He usually maintains the injections for protecting the mountain on Jade Mist Mountain. Naturally, he will know more about the situation of this Array.

"Then let's carry it." Lu Chaoxi said, "The consumption of their formation-breaking artillery must be greater than our consumption of relying on the spiritual pulse to activate the formation."

This is true. If the three-day artillery is to be fired in a row, the Zhao family must have at least three or four foundation-building cultivators to exhaust their spiritual power. After a few days of replenishment, they will definitely not be able to recover. On his side, the main energy source of the mountain protection formation is provided by the spiritual veins. Even if the formation is forced, the preservation of the battle strength of one's own side is definitely better than that of the other side.

In the follow-up decisive battle, the opponent will lose three or four foundation-building cultivators, which is also quite critical.

However, this battle is still not easy to fight.

Lu Chaoxi looked at the expressions of his younger brother, younger sister, and many of the younger generations of the family, all with a determined expression.

But he was not so nervous.

Of course he knew that this was a battle to control the life and death of the family, and he was not Zhao Zhengke's opponent. After all, he had just entered Qiming, and he had been in the Qiming period for decades.

but……

Thinking of his father's voice transmission before, he felt at ease.

What if Zhao Zidan is here?

Just thinking about it, my father's voice transmission arrived again.

"Let go of the big formation."

He immediately said: "Let go of the great formation!"

"Huh?" The family monks present were all stunned, thinking that there was something wrong with their ears, maybe they heard it wrong, so that no one did what Lu Chaoxi said.

Didn't I just say that for three days, it would consume the mana of the three or four Zhao family's foundation-building cultivators?

What does it mean to let go?

Lu Chaoxi first withdrew his mana, called out the 'flashing' flying sword, and then said, "Let go of the magic circle, this is what my father meant."

"Father?" Ming Chao was the first to react, and she asked excitedly, "Dad can get out?"

"Well." Lu Chaoxi said with a smile.

Others also reacted at this time.

The ancestor of the family's golden core... Really didn't die, and could he make a move?

...

Outside the mountain gate, the cultivators of the Zhao family saw the white cloud covering the Jade Mist Mountain, which suddenly became much thinner and disappeared completely in a short period of time.

"Huh?" Zhao Zhengke was a little stunned.

The mountain protection formation of Jade Mist has been breached? So fast? Although holding a third-order smashing cannon, the opponent's mountain protection formation is only second-tier, but after all, Lu Chaoxi, a Qiming cultivator, is in charge of the formation on Jade Mist Mountain.

According to his estimation, it would take at least three days to do it.

So what's the situation? Infighting on Jade Smoky Mountain? They took the initiative to remove the mountain protection formation?

To be cautious, for fear that there is something tricky in this, Zhao Zhengke did not give any orders immediately, but recruited Baihe and flew to a higher position, wanting to see more clearly.

He saw the light of six flying swords lit up on Jade Mist Mountain. The one with lightning at the head was naturally Lu Chaoxi, and the last five should be the five foundation-building cultivators of the Lu family. Below them, more than 40 Lu family's Qi-training cultivators also formed a formation. Under the leadership of the family's six senior cultivators, they walked down the mountain.

There is no infighting, it looks like he just wants to take the initiative.

The seven foundation-building cultivators gathered here by the Zhao family also flew up one by one, and one of them couldn't help sneering: "Are these Lu family cultivators dying too slowly?"

"How dare you take the initiative to attack?"

"That's fine, it saves me a lot of effort to wait."

Between the words, the atmosphere of everyone became more relaxed.

Without the defense of the mountain, the battle between the two sides is purely a hard power between the cultivators.

But how could the Zhao family be afraid of the Lu family?

From a distance, they looked like they came down from the mountain, and they looked menacing, but what was that? The Zhao clan has more than 100 direct cultivators here, and there are two more cultivators in the foundation than the other party. In the words of the Qiming cultivator, Zhao Zhengke has an obvious advantage.

"Patriarch, order it, today is the time when I wait to avenge Ping Liang!"

Zhao Zhengke frowned, looking at the appearance of the Lu family coming from a distance, but there was always a worry in his heart.

The Lu family is so bold? Could it be that Lu Qing really...

At this time, Zhao Zidan's words sounded in his ears: "Lu Qing is not here, kill."

This sentence immediately put all his worries down.

Can the judgment of the ancestor of Jindan be wrong?

"Then fight! Zhao's son-in-law, follow me!"

After he finished speaking, he ordered Bai He to rush forward, aiming directly at Lu Chaoxi!

Walking in the air, he has already started to prepare spells. He is not the most common sword cultivator in Feiyun Prefecture. He is sparse and common in this regard, and he is not very good at urging magic swords to cut people. He is better at responding to the enemy with magic.

A lake-blue rosary appeared in his hand. With the activation of spiritual power, behind him, a cloud with a little blue light suddenly formed, condensed, and took the shape of a dragon. The fog dragon was a hundred feet long, and it let out a roar like a living creature, passed him and his white crane, and rushed towards Lu Chaoxi.

Lu Chaoxi didn't hesitate, the black electric current on 'Wu Lei' increased countless times in an instant, slashing towards Wulong.

The two collided... Ulay flew out.

"Have you never fought a duel between Qiming monks? Ah?" Zhao Zhengke's cheerful voice came, and Wulong rushed towards him unabated.

The feeling of being blown away by the magic sword was unpleasant, and Lu Chaoxi was somewhat impacted.

Zhao Zhengke really made it clear that after Lu Chaoxi was enlightened, the strongest opponent he had ever fought was the White Ghost King. The feeling of fighting against such a huge monster is completely different from that of a real cultivator of enlightenment.

The lack of experience, coupled with the crushing of hard power, made him make a wrong judgment.

At this moment, he didn't have time to control 'Wu Lei' again, Zhao Zhengke's Wulong was much stronger than he imagined.

He could only use his full power to activate the two defensive magic weapons, the 'Qiankun Naling Map' and the 'Spiritual Guardian Gold Armor', hoping to block this technique.

However, the expected shock did not come. The mighty fog dragon quickly disintegrated and dissipated in midair.

And through the disintegrating fog dragon, Lu Chaoxi saw Zhao Zhengke riding a white crane behind him, covered by a crimson fire, and his shrill screams followed.

The moment the fire burned, Zhao Zhengke felt that something was wrong.

As an old enemy, he immediately recognized that this was the famous spell from the 'Infinite Ember Fire', 'Cinder Fire Extinguishing'.

Not only did he recognize this move, he even experienced it himself.

That was more than 30 years ago, the last time the Zhao family attacked Jade Mist Mountain. It was Lu Chaoxi who shot. He inspired a third-order fire talisman left by Old Ancestor Lu and hit him.

At that time, he was only on the second floor of Qiming, and the feeling of being hit by a third-order fire talisman was really uncomfortable. The characteristic of 'Cinder Fire Extinguishing', which doesn't burn anything clean and never stops, is quite daunting. If he hadn't been hit by the fire talisman, he would have killed Lu Chaoxi directly back then, and he would not have delayed the arrival of the sect cultivator to stop the war between the two sides.

However, having said that, when he was hit with the 'Cinder Fire Extinguishing Talisman', he just felt troubled, but now he is stronger, and he has experience after suffering losses, and he is prepared in advance, so he will not put it down. The spell is in sight.

When the crimson flames burned on his body, he followed the steps, preparing to use his spiritual power to isolate the destructive crimson flames, and then find a way to get rid of them.

However, when his spiritual power came into contact with this flame, he immediately felt that something was wrong: why is it so powerful? Why was the spiritual power instantly burnt up when it touched it?

Before this unpleasant feeling was born, he felt that the spiritual power he used to protect his body was instantly burned through, and the flame directly touched his body.

Not a spell! This is the direct shot of the fire cultivator of the Jindan period!

As soon as this thought arose, the intense pain of burning his body and even his soul instantly overwhelmed his perception, causing him to unconsciously let out a tragic cry.

A clear green light descended from the sky. This was Zhao Zidan who was on the flying boat. After feeling wrong, he shot.

He tried to use wood magic to purify the crimson fire.

However, it was too late.

The crane under Zhao Zhengke had already been burned to death. His body on fire fell down from mid-air, and the purification technique reached his body. Zhao Zhengke, who had been burnt to black in this very short period of time, not only his body was destroyed, but his spirit was also destroyed by refining.

"Lu Qing!"

Zhao Zidan's roar came, and his figure rose from the flying boat, with a multicolored lotus at his feet.

And in the direction of his gaze, a huge crimson fire dragon soared up, raising its head and spewing out a thick flame, reflecting half of the sky red.

Above the dragon head, stood a young man with flying beards, looking at Zhao Zidan with scarlet eyes.

"I am Yuyan Lu Qing!"

"Zhao Lao thief, don't come and die soon!"
