Chapter 696 Yunwu Mountain
Jinfeng Country, Yunwu Mountain.
Yunwu Mountain is located in the southernmost corner of Jinfeng Kingdom. Its main peak is about several thousand feet high, and is surrounded by a large number of sub-peaks of different heights, stretching for more than a thousand miles.
In the depths of the Yunwu Mountain, several large rivers converge and then diverge. There are dense jungles on both sides of the river.
In this dense primitive jungle, it is extremely rare to find human traces all year round. Except for immortal cultivators who fly to the sky and escape from the earth, it is basically difficult to find human traces.
In such a place, a mortal would not be able to survive even for a day without the protection of an immortal cultivator.
It is such a primitive place with a very rich spiritual energy, a large number of elixirs growing inside, and a considerable amount of spiritual minerals and other resources for cultivating immortals buried deep underground.
Compared with these natural factors and the areas where ordinary people live, it is not an exaggeration to say that there is a world of difference.
And this place is the territory of the Li family, one of the six major Jindan forces in the Jinfeng Kingdom.
With thousands of years of mining and development by the Li family, the resources in Yunwu Mountain have not only not decreased, but have become increasingly abundant.
Among them, in addition to the core area, the large area outside Yunwu Mountain has also become the back garden of the Li family.
Over a long period of time, the Li family has also spent a lot of manpower and resources to build Yunwu Mountain into a fairyland treasure.
At this moment, people within the Li family are in panic, and every member of the Li family is feeling heavy.
In such an atmosphere, it was obviously a fatal blow.
As for the reason, it is nothing more than the unprecedented war that took place outside the Liang family over the past few years.
In just three short years, bad news about the Li family came one after another.
At the beginning, the Li family only lost a small part of their strength.
Such a loss actually does not hurt the Li family, which has been inherited for more than 10,000 years.
But later, Li Wenhai, the most powerful person in the Li family, fell, and the rest of the elite forces also suffered heavy losses.
When this news came, it was like a bolt from the blue to any member of the Li family.
However, misfortunes never come singly. In the battle where Li Wenhai died, several members of the Jindan period of the Li family who participated in the battle also lost their lives.
As a result, more than half of the Li family's elite strength was lost, and the overall strength was greatly reduced compared to its peak.
At that time, there were actually huge differences within the Li family.
Among them, some people want to give up their plan to continue attacking the Liang family and withdraw the few remaining clan members.
Even senior members of the Li family and the Jindan period suggested that the family take the initiative to offer treasures to the Liang family to seek peace and resolve a series of previous grudges.
Many members of the Li family support this suggestion.
For this reason, the Li family has already had this sign and is trying to break away from the camp of the four major forces of the Yuanchen Sect.
Not only the Li family, but the Xie family on the other side also suffered unprecedented heavy losses, so they hesitated for a while.
As a result, the Xie family was in the same situation as the Li family. There were great differences within the family, and those who advocated retreat were also trying to test the reactions of the four major forces.
However, several powerful men in the late Jindan period led by Hua Zhenxing ignored the temptations of the Xie and Li families.
Hua Zhenxing even suppressed the Xie and Li families overtly and covertly, thinking of ways to beat them.
At the same time, Hua Zhenxing also directly threatens the two major families. If he withdraws at this critical moment, he will definitely turn the gun and destroy them together.
Faced with Hua Zhenxing's power, even though the Xie family and Li family were angry, they did not dare to take that step.
Other than that, the overall strength of the four major forces was still strong at that time, at least better than the situation of the Liang family.
Under such a disparity in strength, the four major forces still have the possibility of defeating the Liang family, or even directly annihilating the Liang family.
Therefore, under strong pressure, the Xie and Li families had to seek skin from the tiger and continue to participate in the battle to attack the Liang family.
Who would have thought that in the next war, the four major forces would suffer a fatal defeat.
At that critical moment, Hua Zhenxing actually abandoned the people of the three major forces and made them become abandoned sons to delay time, thus giving the Yuanchen Sect monks a chance to escape.
Just when this bad news came, the entire Li family was wailing from top to bottom, regardless of their cultivation level.
Now, with the death of Li Wenhai and the deaths of other senior members of the Li family, there are only four Jindan clan members left in the Li family.
Among these four senior executives, Li Yongan, who was in the middle stage of Jindan cultivation, became the helmsman of the Li family.
Facing a precarious situation and always on the verge of annihilation, Li Yongan is seeking many ways to help the Li family survive this catastrophe.
Just when Li Yongan was at his wits end, Gao Cheng, the new leader of Tianqing Sect, sent people to the Li family to seek an alliance.
According to Gao Cheng's wishes, the Li family wants to abandon this clan land where they have lived for a long time, and let the few strong men in the Golden Core stage take a group of elite disciples to take refuge at the Tianqing Sect's mountain gate.
In addition to the Li family, the Xie family, another family that suffered heavy losses, must also implement the same practice.
And Gao Cheng did this because he wanted to unite the two families to resist the Liang family's revenge attack plan.
From the standpoint of the Li family and the Xie family, Gao Cheng's plan is actually a good way to deal with the disaster.
After all, both the Tianqing Sect and the Xie Li family have suffered heavy losses, and their strength is only 20 to 30% compared to their peak.
Under such circumstances, if the three major forces continue to fight on their own, they will have no chance of surviving in the face of the menacing and powerful Liang family monks.
Even if they can't stand firm with the help of the mountain guard formation, it's impossible to stop the Liang family's continuous attack. At most, it will only delay it for some time.
On the other hand, if the Xie and Li families send the family's core property and those elite children with good talent and potential to the Tianqing Sect before the Liang family launches an attack.
At the same time, the remaining forces of the three major forces have united and cooperated with the Tianqing Sect's defensive formation, and there is a good chance that they will survive this disaster.
There is just one thing. If Li Yongan agrees to Gao Cheng's plan, he himself will have to bear tremendous pressure from other tribesmen.
In addition, the more important point is that it is difficult for Li Yongan to make such a choice.
After all, the Li family has lived in this Yunwu Mountain for more than 10,000 years.
Before this, Yunwu Mountain had been a clan with a golden elixir power that was not much weaker than the Li family.
After the Li family destroyed the other party, they took over this treasure land as a clanless land, and increased their efforts to develop and maintain this place.
After the maintenance and development of multiple golden elixir forces, Yunwu Mountain has become an excellent cave heaven paradise.
And the Li family’s heritage is all here. It can be said that it is simply impossible to take away that huge resource in a short period of time.
Besides, if the Li family did this, they would have to give up more than 90% of their clan members and all the territory controlled by their subordinates.
Including those spiritual lands and many properties, they must also be given up.
Under such circumstances, unless the Liang family gives up revenge or suffers a disastrous defeat at the Tianqing Sect Gate, the Li family will be able to take back part of the territory and resources that originally belonged to the Li family. But it is also difficult to achieve any of this.
It is for these substantive reasons that it would be difficult for anyone, let alone Li Yongan, to make a decision when encountering a similar situation.
After all, the Li family has accumulated a lot over thousands of years, and the size of the clan is also very large, and these hard-earned foundations are extremely important to the Li family.
Under such circumstances, it is not an easy task to transfer assets and move people to Tianqing Sect in a short period of time.
Therefore, after Li Yongan learned the news from Tianqing Sect, he also discussed it with the senior officials of the Li family.
After a heated discussion, Li Yongan finally made a decision, which was to lead some elite tribesmen to migrate to Tianqing Sect.
At the same time, the treasures and resources that can be taken away from the Li family are taken away. The things that cannot be taken away can only be kept in the family.
As for those tribesmen who cannot migrate, they can only be abandoned, always delaying time or confusing the Liang family's informants.
And what he did was an act of helplessness.
But even so, he didn't care about the Li family at all.
After all, there are a lot of resources that cannot be taken away, and the Li family is also protected by the mountain guard formation, as well as the help of some third-level spiritual beasts, so it is completely possible to hold on and resist.
There was really no way to stop the Liang family’s attack, so they had no choice but to give up.
So, Li Yongan immediately arranged for the clan members to take action after the top management of the Liang family came up with the results.
In a hurry, after a month of actions, most of the Li family's elite forces had arrived at Tianqing Sect.
In addition, most of the precious resources of the Li family were also taken away by Li Yongan.
Only those things that cannot be taken away, as well as the territory under the Li family, including the market and various spiritual properties, are all out of control at this time.
For this reason, no matter how reluctant Li Yongan was to let go, he still had to reluctantly give up his love in the face of the danger of genocide.
So, at this time, the elite within the Li family are no longer there, and many abandoned tribesmen are still unaware of it.
When these people couldn't see the senior family members for a long time, they felt panicked and didn't know what the senior family members' plans were.
Only a small number of Li family members who knew about it were all people who had exhausted their potential and had some cultivation strength.
Because these people could not abandon their relatives and the family that nurtured them, they finally voluntarily stayed and lived and died with their family.
With the settlement of these people, the Li family is relatively stable for the time being, at least the order is not completely chaotic.
However, this situation only lasted for more than half a month.
On this day, two flying boats appeared outside the Li family's land and landed on a flat ground.
Immediately afterwards, Liang Shaorong and Lin Tianming took the lead to get off the flying boat.
After that, the remaining golden elixir stage powerhouses fell down one after another and stayed behind Lin Tianming and others.
With the appearance of these people, the people inside the Li family who patrolled the mountain gate immediately discovered these movements.
So, they immediately issued an early warning of enemy attack.
For a time, the bells rang out all over the Li family, and the loud sound spread to every corner of the Li family.
Soon, members of the Li family walked out one after another, and finally gathered in the square at the mountain gate.
Within just one cup of tea, thousands of Li family members had gathered in the square.
Among them, several gray-haired old men stared at Lin Tianming and others outside the mountain gate, their faces looking extremely pale.
At this time, I saw an old man with white hair, his eyes wide open, and he couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Then...could it be that Lin Tianming who killed the ancestor?"
As soon as these words came out, a large number of Li family members stared at Lin Tianming, and his complexion immediately turned pale.
Not only that, there were also many members of the Li family in the crowd who hesitated and looked completely stunned.
I don’t know how much time passed before the people at the front reacted.
Among them, an old man took the lead and said: "Fifth brother, Lin Tianming, that murderous maniac, actually came in person, and there were also Liang Shaorong and other strong men accompanying him. There were ten strong men in the Golden Core stage. As many as eight.”
"In addition, there are more than a hundred foundation-building monks wandering around outside the mountain gate, seemingly trying to guard our escape route."
"Faced with such a powerful person, what should we do next?"
Hearing this, the gray-haired old man sighed, and then said helplessly: " In such a desperate situation, what else can we do?"
"You have to know that the third brother told us to use the formation to stand firm and wait for help."
"If we can bear it. The best is in the past. If you really can’t resist it, just run for your lives.”
After hearing these words, the other people turned pale and felt even more despair inside.
Because they knew very well that Lin Tianming, a top powerhouse, had come in person, and coupled with the golden elixir powerhouses from the Liang family camp, the gap in strength between the two sides was simply huge.
Before this, they were still a little lucky, thinking that the Liang family might not be able to send many strong men here.
Especially Lin Tianming, a foreign aid force, will probably not continue to help the Liang family.
But who would have thought that the Liang family could still invite Lin Tianming to come.
His appearance can be said to have basically pronounced the final outcome of the Li family's clan.
Once the Li family's defensive formation is broken, it is impossible for them to stop it, and they will not even have a chance to escape.
After all, the Liang family must have been fully prepared for this operation. It can be said that those wandering foundation-building monks are a part of preventing the Li family's children from escaping.
Under such a huge gap, the Li family members did not have much chance to escape.
In fact, the top management of the Liang family did arrange it this way.
Not only that, the reason why there are only 18 Golden Core Stage warriors and a hundred Foundation Establishment Stage monks here is because Liang Shaorong arranged for four Liang Family Golden Core Stage clansmen to each lead a hundred Foundation Establishment Stage clansmen to the main spirit of the Li family. land.
Including the Li family’s cities and various spiritual industries, they are all targets of attack by these people.
At the same time, this group of people is also the main force chasing and killing the Li family members.
As for these arrangements of the Liang family, although the Li family members do not know the details, they can already guess in their hearts.
