Chapter 779 Cruel decision-making
In other words, once Haoyue Xiancheng falls, the impact will be very serious.
At that time, within a radius of 20,000 miles, the gathering places of immortal cultivators, large and small, will be reduced to "isolated islands", or they will face the situation of being swallowed by monster clans.
As far as the demon clan is concerned, it will not give Tiannan Xiuxian a chance to re-establish its core.
It has a radius of 20,000 li, which is almost equivalent to two Qingzhous, and half the size of Chu State, so it must not be easily abandoned.
Haoyue Fairy City is only 200,000 miles away from the center of the Seven Nations League.
Otherwise, if you lose a city today and another place tomorrow, it won’t take long for the Yaozu to reach the Five Elements Pass!
Once an accident occurs at Wuxingguan, most of the territory of the Seven Kingdoms Alliance will fall, and there will be a chain reaction like the collapse of dominoes.
At that time, the entire seven-nation alliance will be powerless.
Because the relationship is so important, Haoyue Xiancheng is guarded by three true monarchs all year round, and they rotate every fifteen years.
But, that was just before.
With the arrival of Mo Mei, the lineup guarding the city is unprecedentedly luxurious, reaching the level that many garrisoned true monarchs are envious of!
…
Two days later.
In a certain section of the city wall of Haoyue Immortal City, four figures stood quietly, looking towards the distance to the north.
It was Liu Yu, Mo Mei, Kong Zhao, and Huang Mei.
Behind the four of them, more than a dozen Jindan stood respectfully, talking about some information around Xiancheng from time to time.
As the setting sun fell, it fell on sections of the city wall and the face of a famous monk, and the tragic and chilling atmosphere seemed to have faded a little because of this.
"The "Four Elephant Rotating Formation" in this city has both offensive and defensive capabilities, and its rank is as high as the fourth-rank middle rank. Even if the big demon king comes in person in the late fourth-order, it can persist for a period of time."
"This array."
An elder guarding the city in the late stage of Jindan explained in detail the situation of the defense formation.
Two days passed, and the group successfully completed the handover, officially settled in Haoyue Immortal City, and became familiar with the basic situation of this Immortal City and its surroundings.
Mist filled the mountains and plains, the sun was struggling tenaciously on the distant horizon, and the blood-red glow shone on Liu Yu's burly body with a hint of warmth.
Bathing in the setting sun, he listened carefully to the reports of the Jindan monks, but looked at the monks coming and going in all directions of the fairy city.
Night is about to fall, streaks of light flew continuously in all directions, and landed five or six miles away from Haoyue Fairy City, where a famous monk appeared.
The expressions of these monks are different. Some are happy when they have gained a lot, some are depressed after losing their companions, and some are very cautious.
The vast majority of monks have extremely active mana fluctuations.
Obviously not long ago, they had experienced life and death fights, and some people still had shocking wounds on their bodies.
They either form large or small groups in groups to complete tasks; or they travel alone in the unknown wilderness alone for various reasons.
In order to show their strength and frighten Xiaoxiao, some monks didn't even put the corpse of the monster in the storage bag, but carried it generously on their body.
But in general, there are significantly more teams in groups than "lone wolves" who act alone.
Under the background of emphasizing "unity", the three major alliances encourage low-level monks to form teams to complete various tasks assigned by the alliance.
After all, human energy is always limited, and it is impossible to be proficient in everything.
However, the combination of several monks may make up for their respective shortcomings, so that attack, defense, and movement can all be considered.
In the face of low-level monsters, it undoubtedly has a great advantage.
In contrast to acting alone, although most of those who choose this method have enough confidence in their own strength, there are countless examples of gutters capsized.
Because even if the strength is high, it is impossible to be flawless in all aspects.
Once an accident occurs, the ability to resist the accident is much lower than that of a team composed of several people.
In this case, a monk who acts alone can only make up for the shortcomings in all aspects, and cannot leave obvious shortcomings. One person is equivalent to a team.
But there are very few monks who can do this.
On the battlefield where the big waves wash the sand, if one person can survive on the front line for five years, he is already considered an outstanding person in his class. Regardless of his potential and strength, he is not comparable to ordinary monks.
Under the huge fairy city, there are several teams lined up at the city gate, and there are only a very small number of monks acting alone.
They often have a fierce and evil spirit on them. Even if the number of monks has an advantage, the eyes of the former are full of fear.
Standing on the city wall more than 30 feet high, Liu Yu took this scene into his eyes and silently watched a low-level monk.
Once upon a time, he was one of them.
But since opening the Immortal Mansion, there have been ups and downs for two or three hundred years, and finally began to have the strength to choose.
After the opening of the Immortal Mansion, not only Liu Yu's fate changed, but also the fates of the monks he had touched also deviated from the original track.
For example, those dead souls, such as a famous concubine.
Liu Yu seems to be able to distort all "black holes". The fate lines of all creatures who have come into contact with him will be distorted and shifted.
"Although I used to be one of them, but now that you are a true king, everything is completely different."
"A true monarch like me no longer has the patience to listen to the wishes of tiny ants."
Thinking like this, Liu Yu withdrew his thoughts.
At this moment, the true monarch and real person talking on the city wall formed a sharp contrast with all kinds of low-level monks under the city wall.
Although they are all in the human camp, but because they are at different levels, they seem to be in two completely different worlds.
…
"Within a radius of 20,000 miles, there are eight large-scale gathering places and ninety-six small and medium-sized gathering places, all of which are under the jurisdiction of Haoyue Fairy City."
"As for the strongholds of each cultivating family or small sect, it is difficult to count."
"The strength of the monster clan is too strong, and the monster beasts are not afraid of death under the drive of the monster cultivators."
“Although their offensive enthusiasm is showing a slow downward trend, the current situation is still very pessimistic.”
"Within the radiating range of the city, the defensive pressure of the gathered places is astonishing. More than half of them have sent messages requesting reinforcements."
"The younger generation dare not make their own decisions, please ask Senior Mo Mei to take charge of the overall situation."
The person in charge of coordinating all parties in Haoyue Immortal City is a white-haired, old Jindan male cultivator. He quickly explained the basic information and asked for instructions respectfully.
Although he is a nominal "city lord" who can decide many things, he has no right to decide some real major events, such as sending monks to reinforce various gathering places.
This person is old and has no further potential, so he was sent to the front line by his affiliated forces and became a de facto "abandoned son".
He just wants to spend his old age peacefully, let alone make decisions casually.
After the voice fell, all the monks focused their attention on Zhenjun Mo Mei.
Guarding Haoyue Immortal City, after all, is the task of this woman. According to the agreement, Liu Yu and the three just want to protect her safety.
As for other chores, I have no obligation or interest to take care of them.
Originally, apart from Mo Mei, there were two true monarchs who carried out this mission together.
But because of Xuanbing Palace's pushing hands, Mo Mei inherently distrusted these two people, and suspected that they were "Nangongtian" people.
So it was just a face-to-face meeting to maintain peace on the surface, and there was not much communication in reality.
Relying on the fact that she had four True Monarchs on her side, she firmly held the control of Haoyue Immortal City in her hands, and did not give those two people a chance to decide important matters.
Facing the powerful Liu Yu and the others, the two True Monarchs were also very knowledgeable and did not intend to forcibly intervene in the affairs of the Immortal City.
"Ask for reinforcements?"
Hearing this, Momei Zhenjun's eyes flashed, and he immediately lowered his head in thought, but didn't speak immediately.
Her gaze was gloomy, looking at the low-ranking monks coming in and out of the city gate, a bit of hesitation flashed in her eyes.
But this bit of hesitation was finally replaced by indifference.
After seven or eight breaths, Momei Zhenjun said lightly:
"Don't act rashly, I have my own arrangements for reinforcements."
"Without the order of my seat, the cultivators guarding Haoyue City cannot transfer one person outside without permission!"
After a brief hesitation, only indifference and calm remained on her face.
Obviously, she's already made, her decision.
Low-level meddling in high-level fighting skills is almost the same as courting death, and the impact is very limited.
But the offense is useless, but the defense is still somewhat useful.
Defending the city by relying on formations can also enhance a lot of the defensive power of the fairy city and ensure the safety of the fairy city to the greatest extent.
Under such circumstances, the more monks defending the city, the better.
"this"
"Senior Mo Mei, please know that the battle situation in the major gathering places is stalemate, and the situation is extremely urgent."
"If reinforcements are not made in time, then there will be consequences."
Hearing the words, the Golden Core City Master reacted very quickly, and immediately understood the meaning of the other party's words.
But when he changed his mind, he still showed embarrassment.
The Golden Core City Lord has no right to send reinforcements directly, but has the duty to explain things clearly.
If you don’t make it clear, you will bear a large part of the responsibility for the collapse of the gathering place.
So this person didn't have much fluctuation in his heart, but he still behaved like a "loyal veteran".
"Um?"
Before this person could finish speaking, Zhenjun Momei hummed softly, and directly released part of the Nascent Soul's spiritual pressure.
The atmosphere on the city wall instantly became depressing.
"Boom!!"
The powerful spiritual pressure and power descended, the body of Jindan City Lord trembled, and the voice immediately became quieter, until finally disappeared.
Fulfilling his duties, he just walked down the steps, not really serving the public wholeheartedly.
When the other Jindan stewards saw this scene, how could they not understand what Zhenjun Momei meant?
Several Jindan among them felt a bit unbearable in their hearts, but they moved their lips, and in the end they still didn't dare to open their mouths to refute.
Such a decision does not care about those comrades who are in dire straits in the major gathering places.
Many monks present instinctively felt something was wrong.
It can be foreseen that the gathering places that have not received reinforcements for a long time, under the raging waves of beasts, the final result will be terrible.
It's just the way of immortality.
Although many monks instinctively feel uncomfortable and wrong, but after all, the matter has nothing to do with themselves and has not really harmed their own interests.
Under the majestic eyes of Zhenjun Yuanying, they still did not act by force.
After all, they are all Jindan real people, even if there are juniors in the major gathering places, it is too easy to pick them up, and there is no need to offend a real king.
Otherwise, on the front line where Zhenjun can decide anything, Mo Mei can legally arrange the death mission immediately.
A higher realm can indeed crush people to death. It is too easy for high-level monks to clean up low-level monks, and it will not change in any period.
Several Jindan real people felt chills in their hearts, but faced with Mo Mei's unreasonable decision, they all remained silent.
"Back off."
Seeing this scene, Mo Mei was secretly satisfied, and then turned to look north and said lightly.
She didn't know why, sending elite monks to reinforce the gathering place was indeed the most correct choice, in line with the righteousness of Tiannan's world of cultivating immortals.
It is only the interests of Tiannan Xiuxian Realm, not Momei's own interests.
She just wants to stay in An'an for fifteen years, no matter what happens, as long as there is no accident in Haoyue Xiancheng.
Once the fifteenth year arrives, immediately return to Dandingzong.
Between Tiannan and herself, Mo Mei has already made a choice.
"The younger generation will leave."
Hearing this, several Jindan managers immediately saluted and retreated as if they had received an amnesty.
Beside Mo Mei, Liu Yu, Huang Mei, and Kong Zhao witnessed the entire decision-making process from beginning to end,
But the three looked indifferent, and they didn't intend to interfere.
Cultivated to the current state, they have at least hundreds of years of experience, and have seen too many dirty things in this world of cultivating immortals, and similar things have long been commonplace.
The hot blood has already cooled down.
With the exception of very few, most true monarchs only have the obsession to climb the immortal way and pursue the truth in their hearts, and they will not be shaken by the so-called "righteousness".
Compared with low-level monks and mortals, the life essence of Yuanying Zhenjun is too much.
In addition to being humanoid in appearance, the essence of life is completely different, and it can even be said to be a different species.
According to the different cultivation methods, no matter the body or the mind, they have undergone many transformations and sublimation, and they have gone extremely far in a certain direction.
In this case, the recognition of the concept of "person" may not be so strong.
How can they care about the life and death of low-level monks and mortals?
Besides, to be serious, for Yuanying Zhenjun, the physical body is just a shell, and the "Yuanying" is the real self.
Even if they abandon their physical bodies, they can still use spiritual objects to shape their bodies, or even directly take away monsters with excellent bloodlines, and they can still continue to practice.
At that time, "I" is still "I".
Low-level monks defending the city can indeed strengthen the defensive power of Haoyue Xiancheng, but the effect may not be great.
Both are true monarchs, the three of them may be able to change Mo Mei's decision as long as they speak, without paying any price.
But they look at things from different angles. The life and death of thousands of monks is insignificant in the eyes of the Nascent Soul monk, and none of the three have the intention to speak.
Even the old monk Kongzhao folded his hands and looked out of the city, as if he had never heard of everything around him.
"The heart of a cultivator contains the corruption of the whole world."
Shaking his head secretly in his heart, Liu Yu turned his eyes and continued to enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the city.
He declined to comment on Momei's decision.
If sacrificing the lives of thousands of monks can help him, I believe most Nascent Soul monsters will not hesitate.
"Absolutely free~"
"This world is so cruel, but it is so beautiful."
His hands behind his back, Liu Yu is dressed in a black robe, looking into the distance.
"There is no need to care about the life and death of others."
"But I have to take care of the safety of the disciples of the sect. It seems not good to turn a blind eye."
"After all, the interests of the sect are, to some extent, also their own interests."
The thought flashed through him.
There was no intention of hiding it, Liu Yu immediately raised his hand and sent out a message talisman, which turned into a white light and flew into the distance at high speed.
