Chapter 863 Three people become tigers
Lin Xi was not seriously injured, and after a few days of breathing exercises, his body recovered to its peak condition.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Lu Luan concentrating on healing his wounds, so he did not disturb him and left quietly.
As a senior sister, she had to go and see the casualties of her fellow junior sisters and brothers in their lineage.
The Haoyue Sect suffered heavy losses in this battle.
A tall building in the city center.
The elders sat together.
"Elder Chen, how is your injury?"
Everyone looked at the old man at the top.
"It's suppressed for now."
Elder Chen replied in a hoarse voice. He was thinner than he was a few months ago, as if he had aged two hundred years. His white hair was like a bunch of dead grass, and under his wide robe, there was only yellow and black skin and bones.
Now, I have just come out of the customs.
His injuries were serious. With his cultivation at the peak of the middle Nascent Soul stage, the resource-scarce Haoyue Sect no longer had any elixir that could allow him to recover in a short period of time.
He consumed too much of his essence in this battle, and his previous powerful strength no longer existed. From now on, he can only survive in this state.
Hearing that the situation had been suppressed, everyone's expressions relaxed slightly, but their expressions remained solemn. Although they had stopped the tide of monsters, the Haoyue Sect's disadvantage in this extraterritorial battlefield remained unchanged.
"Elder Chen, you summoned us here. Is this an order from the sect?"
An elder who looked middle-aged asked.
"Yes." Elder Chen nodded in response.
"What does the sect say? Go back, or stay?"
Everyone watched expectantly.
Elder Chen sighed and said weakly, "Stay."
"Keep?"
"Now that most of the sect's people have come here, can we send in support? Without support, there is no way we can hold on."
"The casualties this time are too great."
“And that weird soil is hard to deal with.”
Everyone is in danger in the monster tide, not to mention that many seriously injured elders have no elixirs to heal their wounds, and their talismans have been almost used up. With such a huge loss, they will not be able to stop the next monster tide.
Especially since the biggest barrier, Haoyue City, is so vulnerable due to the pollution of strange soil, it seems hopeless to hold on in the outside world.
"This is Kunlun's arrangement. The situation in the fairyland is serious now. We need to contain more monsters in the outer realms, and at the same time stabilize those foreign races that are friendly to the human race, so as to prevent the monsters from completely uniting."
"But without sufficient strength, we are just a piece of fat meat."
Everyone understands this strategy. Even if they stay here and do nothing, they can cause great trouble to the demon clan.
"Everyone, don't panic. Yangling Sect is willing to send ten elders who are in the early stage of Nascent Soul to help us."
Elder Chen finally told us some good news.
"The Yangling Sect is coming, that would be great."
“I didn’t expect them to lend us a helping hand at this time.”
"A friend in need is a friend indeed. The Yangling Sect is the most reliable one."
Upon hearing that support was coming, the elders' faces finally looked better.
"My fellow elders, there is one more thing that will trouble you. That is to teach the transformed Tengluo monks, so that they can quickly master our human methods, and at the same time enlighten the various monsters that have come to us for surrender."
Elder Chen began to give orders.
Too many people were lost in the monster tide. The best way is to recruit from the Tengluo tribe, monsters and fairy beasts. The human race is a powerful tribe in the starry sky and has a significant morphological advantage. Whether it is a fairy beast or a monster, the strength can be greatly increased by simply changing its shape. If you master some human methods, even if your cultivation level does not change, your strength can continue to improve.
"Don't worry, Elder Chen. We know what to do."
The elders were not ambiguous.
After explaining some more things, everyone dispersed and began to prepare for the arrival of the next wave of monsters.
……
In a tavern in the city.
A group of disciples of Haoyue Sect were drinking and discussing.
"During this monster attack, twelve core disciples were killed by the monster lords."
A young man leaned over and said.
"Why did so many core disciples die? Didn't the elders give them enough protective treasures? These are all geniuses who have the hope of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage." The people around frowned.
"No matter how many treasures you have, they can't stop the attacks of the lord monsters. Moreover, those lord monsters also have spiritual talismans, which are hard to defend against."
"Not to mention the core disciples, even two of the direct disciples were seriously injured. If the elders hadn't rescued them in time, they would have been in great danger."
Another disciple stepped forward and started talking.
"It seems that this battle is indeed dangerous."
Most of these disciples were located inside the battlefield. When the monster tide rushed to their area, the powerful monsters among them were basically stopped by people outside, so the degree of danger they felt was not that high.
I haven't seen those strong men fall with my own eyes, so I can't understand that kind of cruelty.
"There were many casualties among the demon tribe in this battle. Fifty demon beast lords were killed. And I heard that five of them were killed by disciples of the sect."
"This has spread throughout Haoyue City. Two were killed by the Saint Maiden, and the other three were killed by several direct disciples and core disciples working together."
Hearing this, a female disciple stood up proudly and said, "Yes, one of them was killed by Senior Sister Lin Xi from my lineage and her Taoist partner using a magic talisman. I was five hundred miles away at the time and saw it with my own eyes. It was a Lord Longhorn Beetle, and that Longhorn Beetle was not an ordinary Lord-level beetle."
Killing the lord monster with the Jindan cultivation level, even with the help of talismans, was incredible in the eyes of everyone.
"Even a true elder may not be able to kill that longhorn beetle."
"I heard from the elders that Elder Lu also transformed into a dragon and fought a black bee lord without the help of any talismans."
"Is there still this?"
A male disciple revealed a secret, which aroused everyone's curiosity.
"This happened high in the sky, and not many people saw it. At that time, Senior Sister Lin was swallowed by a monster, and Elder Lu rushed to save her at all costs, even using the secret technique of burning his life. He fought with the black bee and both sides were injured." The disciple said in detail.
"With this strength, it seems that Elder Lu's talent is stronger than many core disciples."
"Of course. Elder Lu is not only extremely powerful, but also has a very good character. He doesn't look like a demon cultivator at all." The female disciple who spoke before continued.
"What do you mean?" Many people immediately became interested.
"When returning to the city, Elder Lu was seriously injured, but he did not go to the Immortal Transformation Pond. Instead, he used his own Spiritual Medicine Cave to slowly recover on his own. At that time, the Fourth Elder was still trying to persuade him to go, but he was rejected. Although Elder Lu did not say it, he certainly did not want to occupy the few healing resources."
"It seems that Elder Lu is indeed different from other demon cultivators, and he saved many people in the Iron Sparrow Clan's territory before coming to the sect."
After hearing these things, the disciples around him changed their opinions of Lu Luan again.
"Senior Sister Lin is kind-hearted, so the Taoist partner she chooses will naturally not be too bad."
"Elder Lu has joined the Haoyue Sect, which is a good thing."
"Elder Lu has the hope of reaching the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. His current weakness is that he has too few means. He basically doesn't have any magical powers. On the battlefield, I only saw him use a stone tablet and his fists and feet to fend off monsters, and occasionally he would burst out a thunderbolt."
"Elder Lu has been a casual cultivator for too long, so it's normal that he doesn't have many tricks."
"I don't think so. Although Elder Lu's methods are simple, they are not weak. It is not easy to get the opportunity to fuse with the dragon bloodline."
"Elder Lu doesn't show his true colors, which is really hard to figure out."
"By the way, did you notice that Elder Lu has a long sword on him? Does he have a powerful sword skill that he hasn't used yet?"
"Yes, Elder Lu uses a sword. What is the point of using a sword if he doesn't know sword skills? Could it be that his trump card is a terrifying sword technique?"
"That's not right. When Senior Sister Lin was in danger, she even used the secret technique of burning lifespan, but didn't use swordsmanship. I think either the backlash of using this swordsmanship is too great and she can't bear it now, or it's not as powerful as the secret technique of burning lifespan..."
As these disciples talked, they actually began to make random guesses. They felt that Lu Luan was becoming more and more worthy of speculation.
