Tangning sat cross-legged in the cave, closed his eyes and rested, recovering his spiritual power. After a full day, his spiritual power was restored, and the remaining sword energy in his chest gradually dissipated.

He used the Great Five Elements Reincarnation Technique in conjunction with the green spiritual power in his body, and his body changed from green to yellow, white, red, and black. The wounds that penetrated his chest and abdomen healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and blood and flesh grew again.

In just a few breaths, he recovered as before, except that the clothes on his chest were torn to pieces, and his snow-white baby-like skin was exposed, which looked a little uncoordinated.

Seeing that his injury was getting better, the little white snake coiled around him and kept twisting. Tang Ning stroked its huge head.

This time, unless the little white snake took action in time to stop Xiang Jingxing, if he realized that he was not dead, he would definitely stab him again, maybe cut off his head.

Although the healing ability of the Great Five Elements Reincarnation Technique combined with green spiritual power is strong, it may not be possible without the head.

Tang Ning turned her left hand around and took out Xiang Jingxing's storage bag. She checked inside with her spiritual consciousness. There were only tens of thousands of spiritual stones, two bottles of elixirs, a medium-grade spiritual weapon, and a few others.

Various materials for refining corpse puppets and puppets.

He sorted out the items in the storage bag, put all the spiritual stones, spiritual weapons, and elixirs into his storage bag, then left the cave, transformed into escaping light and soared into the sky.

After walking for about an hour, he arrived at the camp where Qian Yizong was stationed. With a wave of his hand, the transmission note disappeared into the light curtain.

Not long after, the light curtain melted to create a gap, and Tang Ning flashed into the inner room and went straight to a stone room in the center behind the altar, which was where Wei Xuande lived.

There is a man guarding in front of the stone chamber. He is Bao Quan, the head of Zhili.

As soon as he was out of sight, Bao Quan came up to him and asked, "Senior Brother Tang, what's the matter with you?"

Tang Ning said: "Due to a scuffle with the Demon Sect monks, I missed the deadline, so I came here to report to the leader."

"Please wait a moment and allow me to report to the headmaster." Bao Quan said, entering the stone chamber and returning to Tang Ning after a while: "Senior Brother Tang, the headmaster invites you to come in."

Tang Ning entered the inner room and saluted Wei Xuande who was sitting cross-legged on the futon: "Disciple pays homage to the master."

Wei Xuande's face was slightly pale, and he obviously suffered some losses in yesterday's battle.

He smiled slightly and said: "Today I heard the summary of casualties from various departments. I thought you were killed. Just come back safely."

Tang Ning said: "My disciple fought with a demon sect monk for a long time. He was seriously injured and escaped. He rested in a cave and only recovered his spiritual power today. Therefore, he missed the deadline and came here to report to the leader."

"The Demon Sect should not be underestimated. There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers within it. In this battle, there are many people with strange skills who are not much weaker than my elite Xuanmen disciples!"

"Yes, the disciple almost died at his hands. Fortunately, thanks to the great blessing of the sect, he was lucky enough to be killed." Tang Ning turned his left hand and took out a golden token: "This thief's name is Xiang Jingxing, and he is a disciple of the Corpse Puppet Sect.

, he cultivated in the later stage of foundation building, and now he has been executed."

Wei Xuande took the token: "The Demon Sect has no intention of giving in and is sticking to the Xuanyue Mountain camp. I don't expect it to be broken in ten days. This will be a protracted battle. It is your opportunity to make achievements. Exterminate the Demon Sect and regain the throne."

The Spirit Mine needs more of your efforts, so go and rest first! Wait for orders before attacking the Demon Sect."

"Yes, disciple, please resign." Tang Ning responded and returned to the Intelligence Department residence. Lu Guang and Liu Miao were slightly shocked to see him return. They thought that Tang Ning and Zhu Xu had been killed!

The three of them had a conversation and recounted their respective experiences.

This battle ended with the Demon Sect retreating and fleeing back to the Xuanyue Mountain Formation. Both sides suffered numerous casualties. According to today's statistics from various ministries and departments, only fifteen of the Foundation Establishment disciples of the Qian Yizong family died.

Twenty Demon Sect disciples were beheaded, and a Jindan monk from the Demon Sect was beheaded. As for the Qi Refining disciples, the Xuan Sect disciples suffered more casualties than the Demon Sect.

When Tang Ning heard them talking about the casualties on both sides, she felt a little sad. Only a few days into the battle, a Golden Core monk was killed.

It's a pity that hundreds of years of practice were destroyed in one day. Why bother? I don't know how many people died in this war later!

Although the Demon Sect has developed rapidly since it occupied Xingang and attracted thousands of monks in just a few decades, its land area is short after all. Most of those thousands of monks are disciples in the Qi Refining Stage, even though many of them Those with excellent qualifications also need time to grow.

Cultivation is not something that can be accomplished overnight, it requires accumulation over many years. It can take at least forty or fifty years for a disciple to go from mortal transformation to foundation building, and from foundation building to the later stage of foundation building, it will take about seventy years if everything goes well.

After this, even if you have excellent qualifications and sufficient resource support, the path of cultivation will be smooth sailing. It will take one hundred and twenty years to go from mortal transformation to the later stage of foundation building, and it will only take a few decades for the Demon Sect to occupy half of Xingang.

Therefore, the number of monks above the foundation level of the Demon Sect is not more than that of the Xuanmen. This time, all the elites of the Xuanmen came out, and all departments from the deacon on down came out to face the enemy.

In terms of elite disciples, the Xuanmen of the Demon Sect is still slightly inadequate. Therefore, after a great battle, the casualties of the Demon Sect's foundation-building disciples were higher than those of the Xuanmen, while the Demon Sect's Qi Refining disciples were outnumbered and suffered fewer casualties than the Xuanmen. .

Several people chatted for a while, then they all sat cross-legged, took elixirs, closed their eyes and practiced Qi.

………………………

Xuanyue Mountain Spirit Mine Formation, inside the majestic stone hall.

The headmaster of Youmei Sect, Zheng Jiehuai, the headmaster of Crescent Moon Sect, Mo Daode, and the headmaster of Blood and Bone Sect, Wu Zhengping, gathered together.

Wu Zhengping's face was pale, and he said with a solemn expression: "All the elites of Xuanmen have come out. After these two battles, we have lost many disciples. The number of casualties among foundation-building disciples is much higher than that of Xuanmen. Look at their posture, they will not be easy." Those who have withdrawn their troops must now either increase their troops or withdraw from Xuanyue Mountain. My fellow Taoists, what do you think?"

Both of them were silent, and for a while the hall was completely silent.

After a while, Zheng Jiehuai said slowly: "Fellow Daoist Wu, how is your injury? Is it serious?"

Wu Zhengping said: "This little injury is not enough to kill this old man. The most important thing now is to discuss a countermeasure. I have thought that in a few days, Xuanmen will attack again. How should we deal with it then?"

"Although we are large in number, we only have the advantage in Qi Refining disciples. In terms of high-level combat power, the Xuan Sect is still slightly inferior. In these two battles, several elite disciples of our Blood and Bone Sect were killed. I Unfortunately, his disciples also died in the battle."

"If we continue to fight like this, we will soon lose all our capital. The family fortune that we have worked so hard to accumulate over the years will be destroyed in one fell swoop. Our Blood and Bone Sect cannot compare to your two sects. Our family is big and our business is huge. We can already share half of the land of Wu with the Qingyang Sect. When we are satisfied, we can annex Xuanmen, but we don’t have such a big appetite."

Wu Zhengping was very dissatisfied. He originally disagreed with the attack on the Xuanyue Mountain Spirit Mine. Among the three sects of the Demon Sect, the Blood and Bone Sect was the weakest. It could share half of the land of the Wu Kingdom with the Qingyang Sect, but it still occupied the Youmei Sect and the Crescent Sect. The power of the two sects.

With the strength of the Blood Bone Sect, the Qingyang Sect is still inferior, and attacking Xuanyue Mountain will inevitably lead to a counterattack from the Xuanmen, leading to a decisive battle between the Demon Sect and the Xuanmen. This is foreseeable, and based on the original

When Mo Daode proposed this idea, he did not agree.

However, Mo Daode insisted on going his own way and insisted on his own opinion. He had no choice but to agree. Because the Xuanyue Mountain Ling Mine is located at the junction of Wu and Qi, the move of the Crescent Sect will inevitably lead to a counterattack by Xuanmen.

If it were defeated, Xuanmen would take advantage of the situation and wipe out the Blood and Bone Sect. Originally, the Blood and Bone Sect only had the power of the Crescent Sect to compete with the Qingyang Sect.

If the New Moon Sect's vitality is seriously damaged, it will definitely affect the Blood and Bone Sect. In the current situation of Xingang, the three sects of the Demon Sect are connected with the same energy, like grasshoppers on the same boat.

Only by supporting each other can the three sects gain half of Xingang. In the fight against Xuanmen, no one can survive alone.

Mo Daode insisted on this, so he had no choice but to accompany him. In addition, some people in the Blood and Bone Sect were dazzled by the short-lived victories in recent years and could not see the situation clearly. They wanted to swallow Xuanmen in one go, so he agreed to Mo Daode.

plan of.

The reason why the Crescent Sect dared to occupy Xuanyue Mountain's spiritual mines and force Xuanmen to fight decisively with them was because they frequently won in Qi State. Shuiyun Sect could only parry but had no power to fight back. Most of Qi State had already surrendered.

Swallowed by Crescent Gate.

As a result, the arrogance within the Crescent Sect increased greatly, and the main war faction became more and more powerful. Most of the people within it, from Mo Daode himself to the Qi Refining disciples, felt that Xuanmen was vulnerable and could completely swallow it.

Therefore, they wanted to expand their influence and acquire an iconic mid-grade spiritual mine in Xingang.

Among the three sects of the Xingang Demon Sect, the Crescent Sect was originally the most powerful. After the merger of the original Corpse Puppet Sect, the Youmei Sect has grown greatly over the years and its strength has also increased significantly, and is almost as strong as the Crescent Sect.

Among the three Xuanmen sects, Shuiyun Sect was originally the weakest and Qianyi Sect was the strongest. Therefore, Youmei Sect and Qianyi Sect were half separated from each other in the land of Chu, and the two sides went back and forth.

The Crescent Sect fought successively in the land of Qi, encroaching on the Shuiyun Sect step by step, so it felt that the Xuanmen was weak, and came up with the idea of ​​the Xuanyue Mountain Spiritual Mine.

The incident started at the Crescent Sect, and the whole thing was planned and executed by them. It can be said that they were the main culprits in causing the Xingang Demon War. The Blood and Bone Sect was at most an accomplice.

However, it was the Blood and Bone Sect that suffered the most serious casualties.

After these two battles, forty-five of the Blood Bone Sect's foundation-building disciples died, and nine monks were injured in the late-stage foundation-building period. Among them were many who were highly qualified and expected to attack the core formation, including his first disciple who also fought yesterday.

die.

Not only that, the Blood Bone Sect also injured a Golden Core monk, who was also the only Golden Core monk to die in the war so far. He himself was also injured as a result.
