Chapter 2517: Boiling Frog in Warm Water
“The foundation of the Netherworld Immortal Court is really not shallow. The strength of the deputy sect master can be called the strongest person under the Immortal King. It is quite interesting that they can stop them with the help of two great generals!”
In the sect hall, Shen Changqing said slowly.
While talking.
Shen Changqing looked at the other Qing Sect elders in the hall, and he found that the current Qing Sect was weak, and there were not many strong people who could be used.
See here.
Shen Changqing shook his head secretly again.
If Qing Sect had two more top powers, he would be able to send them to Qingxi Prefecture and join forces with the Divine Emperor Guchen to defeat the army of the Netherworld Immortal Court.
What a pity.
The Qing clan’s foundation is too weak.
The only powerful person at the great level is the Divine Emperor Gu Chen.
unless.
Let the acquired demon god take action.
Shen Changqing did not forget that there were twelve acquired demon gods guarding the Seven Profound God Tower, and these acquired demon gods had almost reached the peak level of great power, so their strength was naturally powerful.
If the Twelve Demon Gods were to take action, I believe it would not be a problem to resolve the Qingxi Prefecture.
However.
The twelve demon gods are now at a critical moment, accumulating their strength and waiting to transform into the realm of Immortal King.
You know.
Before the acquired demon god breaks through the ancient immortal, there is no bottleneck at all.
To break through from a great being to an Immortal King, one only needs to accumulate enough strength.
So that’s it.
That’s a problem.
If the acquired demon god were to take action, it would definitely delay the other party’s breakthrough to the Immortal King.
The current situation.
A mere Qingxi Prefecture is not enough to rival an Immortal King.
This is also the fundamental reason why Shen Changqing does not want the acquired demon god of the Seven Profound Divine Tower to take action.
Compared to the Qingxi Mansion, the breakthrough of the twelve acquired demon gods to become the Immortal King is the truly important thing.
Just at this moment.
The communication jade talisman in Shen Changqing’s storage ring vibrated slightly. He thought about it and read the message from it.
In an instant.
A smile appeared on Shen Changqing’s face.
“Well, you came just in time!”
Upon hearing this, other sect leaders all looked puzzled.
Duan Jing couldn’t help but ask: “Sect Master, could something have happened?”
“One of my disciples has entered the Netherworld. With his strength, it’s just right for him to go to Qingxi Mansion!”
Shen Changqing smiled calmly.
Hearing this, Duan Jing was slightly stunned.
Shen Changqing’s disciple?
He also had some understanding of the other party’s direct disciples, and their strength should be at the Dao Fruit level.
If it is a Dao fruit, no matter how powerful it is, it is impossible to change the situation in Qingxi Mansion.
After all.
Without the top power, or even the combat power of a half-step immortal king, it would be difficult to have any big impact.
but.
Without becoming a great power, he wants to be on par with a half-step immortal king. I am afraid that with the foundation of the sect master in front of him, he might not have been able to achieve this level in the past.
You know.
Shen Changqing is recognized as a monster who has gone against the will of heaven.
He is also the only terrifying being from ancient times to the present who can fight against the immortals in the realm of great power.
Shen Changqing also saw Duan Jing’s confusion, but did not explain too much.
…
Less than half a day.
Someone has entered Qingzong.
“Disciple greets Master!”
“No need to be so polite.”
Shen Changqing looked at the person in front of him and his expression softened.
The person who came was Gu Qingfeng.
When the other party stepped into the underworld, Shen Changqing had already learned of the other party’s arrival.
If someone else had come, Shen Changqing wouldn’t have cared too much.
but.
Gu Qingfeng is different.
Gu Qingfeng himself is a powerful sixth-level cultivator, and was born from the Immortal Tomb. He has mastered many ancient inheritances in the Immortal Tomb. His combat power cannot be measured by his realm at all.
In Shen Changqing’s opinion, even if Gu Qingfeng’s strength is not as good as that of a Half-Step Immortal King, he is probably enough to rival the top powerful ones.
A powerful man who is suspected to be a top-notch powerful person naturally makes Shen Changqing satisfied.
There are currently no strong people available in the Qing Sect, so Gu Qingfeng’s arrival is just the right thing to solve the urgent problem.
Gu Qingfeng had no idea what Shen Changqing was thinking. He just took out the thing that Lord Tyrant gave him.
“Master, this is what Elder Batian asked me to bring. Please take a look!”
“Um.”
Shen Changqing nodded, and swept his mind through the storage ring, immediately seeing everything inside clearly.
The things inside are exactly the six kinds of auxiliary medicinal seeds needed to refine the Taisu Immortal Pill.
Shen Changqing’s mind moved slightly, and he put all the six kinds of auxiliary medicinal seeds into the second level space of the Seven Mysterious Divine Tower, waiting to plant them slowly later.
“It is just right for you to enter the Netherworld this time. There is something I need to instruct you to do.”
“Master, please give me your orders!”
Gu Qingfeng looked respectful.
Shen Changqing said: “Now the ancient wilderness forces headed by my Qing Sect are fighting with the Netherworld Immortal Court, but in Qingxi Prefecture of Jiuyao Province, many powerful people from the Netherworld Immortal Court have come forward, causing my Qing Sect to be blocked.
Since you are here, then go to Qingxi Prefecture and help Qing Sect capture Qingxi Prefecture.”
“Of course, this battle is difficult, and I will not let you make a wasted trip. This is a bottle of powerful late-stage elixir, called Taiyuan Shendan. Taking it can improve your cultivation.”
“Your current realm is at the sixth level of great power. If you take this pill, there is a possibility of a breakthrough.”
The words fell.
Shen Changqing handed a bottle of Taiyuan Shendan to Gu Qingfeng.
He refined quite a few Taiyuan Shendan, but ordinary grade Taiyuan Shendan were of little use to Gu Qingfeng.
After all, considering the other party’s realm of cultivation, a divine elixir of at least the middle or even late stage of great power would be required to be effective.
therefore.
Only Shen Changqing would give the other party such medicine.
After all, good things should be kept in the family. It doesn’t matter who the elixir is given to. Instead of giving it to others, it is more practical to give it to one’s own disciples.
Gu Qingfeng said hurriedly: “It is my honor to share Master’s worries. I dare not expect any reward!”
“Just take it if you give it to me. This kind of elixir is useless to me. Your other fellow disciples have limited cultivation and cannot consume this kind of elixir either.”
Shen Changqing shook his head slightly, and then handed a portion of the Taiyuan Shendan of the initial stage for powerful beings to Gu Qingfeng.
“As for these pills, when you have the chance, you can give them to Elder Batian and he will take care of them.”
“yes!”
Seeing Shen Changqing’s tough attitude, Gu Qingfeng did not continue to refuse. He accepted the two kinds of pills, and did not stay in Qingzong for long. He hurried towards Qingxi Mansion.
“Gu Qingfeng took action. Your Majesty thinks he can solve the problem of Qingxi Mansion?”
Qing Yi asked curiously.
He was also aware of Gu Qingfeng’s cultivation level. Although he had a record of destroying a top-level god clan with one sword, Qingyi was very clear that he was able to do this by utilizing the power of the Immortal Tomb.
In fact.
Gu Qingfeng’s strength is not that strong.
Shen Changqing said calmly: “Some people cannot be measured by their realm. Qingfeng was born from the Immortal Tomb and inherited many ancient masters from the Immortal Tomb. His foundation is unmatched.
Right now, Qingxi Prefecture lacks a strong enough fighter to break the deadlock.
With Qingfeng’s strength, I believe it won’t be a problem.”
“Of course, if it really doesn’t work, then we can only let the acquired demon god of the Seven Profound God Tower take action.”
After hearing this, Qingyi stopped talking.
indeed.
He did not forget the existence of the Seven Mysterious Divine Tower.
With the strength of the twelve acquired demon gods, if Shen Changqing is really willing to let them take action, they might be qualified to sweep the entire Jiuyao State.
but.
Qingyi also understood that letting the acquired demon god take action might not necessarily be a good thing.
Right now, Qingzong is nibbling away at Jiuyaozhou bit by bit, using the method of boiling a frog in warm water, so the Netherworld Immortal Court will not launch any strong counterattack.
But if Qingzong really dispatches a large number of strong men to sweep across Jiuyaozhou and even the Netherworld Immortal Court, then it will inevitably force the strong men in the Immortal King realm to come forward.
At that time.
The decisive battle will inevitably be brought forward.
so.
In this war, Qingzong must win, but it also cannot let the Netherworld Immortal Court feel despair. Only by doing so can it erode the enemy step by step.
By the time the Netherworld Immortal Court truly reacts, they will find that they do not have many powerful people left.
As an ancient holy soldier who often follows Emperor Qinglian, Qingyi naturally understands these principles clearly.
and.
Qingyi also knew that Shen Changqing held the same view.
In a sense, the two sides are in sync with each other.
“Now that Qingfeng has gone, as long as the Netherworld Immortal Court does not send any more strong men to reinforce, then taking over Qingxi Mansion should not be a problem.”
Shen Changqing said.
He did not say what that would be if reinforcements came.
Judging from the wars that are now happening on all sides in the Netherworld Immortal Court, it is not certain that the other side can mobilize many strong men.
Besides.
War is ever-changing and no one can be 100% sure.
For some things, just about enough is enough.
so.
After sending Gu Qingfeng to Qingxi Prefecture, Shen Changqing went into seclusion again.
but.
Before the retreat.
Shen Changqing summoned Jiang Mo again and asked him to issue a mission in Qingshan City. The mission was to mobilize the cultivators of Qingshan City to go to Jiuyao Prefecture to assist the Ancient Wilderness side in capturing the four prefectures.
As for rewards, Shen Changqing was also generous.
The worst rewards are basically some Taoist-level elixirs or twelfth-grade treasures. As for the top rewards, they involve half-step immortal treasures, powerful-level elixirs, talismans, formations, and so on.
even.
Even the inheritance of martial arts techniques is not lacking.
Any one of these things is enough to make people excited.
Not every cultivator comes from a top sect like Tianzong, where there is no shortage of inherited skills or resources.
and.
Some of the rewards for this mission would be attractive even to Qing Sect disciples.
For a while.
The entire Qingshan City was shaken.
Many cultivators from the heavens who entered the Netherworld, after accepting corresponding tasks, left the ancient wilderness directly and headed towards Jiuyaozhou.
but–
Qingshan City has many tasks, not just as simple as reinforcing Jiuyao Prefecture.
There are also missions like searching for rare treasures or assassinating powerful men from the Netherworld.
It’s just that the difficulty of the latter will be correspondingly higher, but the rewards will also be correspondingly much richer.
so.
While most of the cultivators went to Jiuyao Province, there was also a small group of cultivators who went deep into other places in the Netherworld.
