Chapter 196 The War Is About to Start【4K】 Ye Linyuan pondered for a long time, and after careful calculation, he came up with a plan. So in the following period of time, he practiced in peace while watching the changes in the entire Seven Domain Alliance. Time passed so quickly, and before he knew it, several years had passed. In the blink of an eye, Ye Linyuan was already 120 years old. During these few years, Ye Linyuan's skills have improved again. First of all, his body cultivation has reached the realm of great perfection in foundation building. Secondly, he has also made progress in alchemy, formation, and other arts of cultivation. He is only one step away from the third level. And when Ye Linyuan was 120 years old, an expected war finally broke out. In this year, the Tianxing Sword Sect officially declared war on the Luoxia Sect and began to recruit cultivators from the entire Tianxing Sea to attack the Luoxia Sect. The Ye family also received this crucial information in advance through Minghuang Jianzi's channel. "The day has finally come."
Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart, and then sighed secretly in his heart. He came to the spiritual medicine garden, took a few rare spiritual medicines and left Yejia Island, then went to the Tianxing Sword Sect. Here Ye Linyuan met the Minghuang Sword Master. Ever since the two great swordsmen Xu Ri and Xuan Po broke through the golden elixir stage, Ming Huang Swordsman became the chief swordsman of the Tian Xing Sword Sect. His cultivation is only one step away from the great perfection of foundation building, and he has mastered two peerless swords. His strength and potential are almost the same as Chu Dongyu back then. At this time, the two met again, and Ye Linyuan said straight to the point: "Brother Minghuang, I came here this time because I don't want to participate in this war." Minghuang Jianzi was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said with some surprise: "I thought you would take this opportunity to seize the chance of forming a pill." Ye Linyuan shook his head, then smiled and said, "As a spiritual plant husband and alchemist, there is no need for me to put myself in danger." "And to be honest, I got a batch of medicinal seeds in the Blood Prison Secret Realm this time. I just need to wait for two or three decades, and maybe I can cultivate a chance to form a pill." Minghuang Jianzi couldn't help but nodded when he heard this. Most of the high-level cultivators in the Tianxing Sea knew that Ye Linyuan had an extremely high talent in all arts of cultivation. If not for this, then even if he took the path of swallowing, Ye Linyuan would not have been able to cultivate to such a level at such a young age. And since Ye Linyuan has mastered extremely high spiritual plant techniques, it is very likely that he can cultivate the seedlings of the main ingredient of the golden elixir to maturity. Once one or two main medicinal herbs for forming golden elixir are cultivated to maturity and handed over to the old man Qingyan of Changqing Xianmen to refine the elixir, it is possible to obtain a genuine golden elixir in exchange. Understanding this, Minghuang Jianzi said, "Your lineage doesn't have to take action, but according to the sect's rules, you need to impose a war tax." "I see." Ye Linyuan nodded, took out a jade bottle from his sleeve, handed it to Minghuang Jianzi and said, "I'll trouble you to be flexible on this matter, Master Jianzi." Minghuang Jianzi opened it and took a look, and couldn't help but smile. It turns out that there are a hundred Lingzhen Xuanyuan Pills in this jade bottle. These are the necessary nourishment for daily practice for cultivators in the early stage of Jindan. After receiving the bottle of Xuanyuan Pill, Minghuang Jianzi said, "If everything goes as expected, my cultivation will be complete within ten years. If I can gather all the golden elixir by then, I will be able to strive for the Jindan stage." “If I can really break through the Golden Core Realm this time, I will try my best to convince the sect to help you achieve enlightenment in the future.”
Hearing this, Ye Linyuan couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief and said, "In that case, I would like to thank you, Brother Dao." Minghuang Jianzi smiled and said, "We have been friends for more than 70 years. Why should we be so polite?" "..." After bidding farewell to the Tianxing Sword Sect, Ye Linyuan returned to his family and asked the family to prepare an additional war tax to be paid. In the years that followed, the Ye family had to pay an additional war tax of one thousand spirit stones every year, and this war tax would be collected once a year until the war was completely over. However, the Ye family now has hundreds of acres of medium-grade spiritual fields, and more than a hundred acres of low-grade spiritual fields. There are also various other industries, and the annual profits are quite substantial. Adding an extra thousand spirit stones in war tax is not too much of a pressure. After dealing with these things, Ye Linyuan waited quietly for the war to begin. Soon after, the news that the war was about to begin spread completely, and dozens of shallow islands in the Tianxing Sea were in an uproar. All major families, sects, and individual cultivators were shocked. Some felt terrified, while others were eager to join the war. In order to ensure the smooth progress of this war, the Tianxing Sword Sect even took out a large number of Foundation Establishment Pills and two inferior Golden Cores as rewards. As long as one has made enough contributions, not to mention the Foundation Establishment Pill, even the opportunity to form a Pill can be obtained. It is precisely because of this that many foundation-building immortal clans and sects have begun to be eager to try, wanting to obtain promotion resources in the war at all costs. Shortly after the conscription order was issued, several old friends of Ye Linyuan arrived at the Xinghu Islands. They are Taoist Zi Yu, Taoist Wu Yun, and Song Qingming. On the top of the mountain on Yejia Island, beside an old tree, four foundation-building monks sat in front of a stone table, each of them looking solemn. Ye Linyuan looked around at the few people and found that after years of practice, coupled with what they had gained from their trip to the Blood Prison Secret Realm, each of them had made considerable progress in their cultivation. Among them, Taoist Wuyun had just recovered from his injuries and had just begun to develop his foundation. It seemed that he would only be one to twenty years away from achieving great perfection in his foundation. Taoist Zi Yu's cultivation progressed extremely fast, and he had already broken through to the seventh level of foundation building. Ye Linyuan understood that this was the normal cultivation speed of Taoist Zi Yu. Taoist Zi Yu became famous at a young age. He was a man of extraordinary talent. He had achieved the great perfection of Qi training in his twenties, but he remained in the state of great perfection of Qi training for a whole sixty years because he could not find an opportunity to build a foundation. After breaking through the foundation-building stage, he had a solid foundation in the upper realm of Taoism. In addition, he was able to obtain some cultivation resources at a low price from Ye Linyuan, and he also gained from exploring the Blood Soul Secret Realm. Naturally, his cultivation progress was rapid. The current life span of Taoist Zi Yu is just around 180 years old. It seems like he should be able to reach the great perfection of foundation building before he is 250 years old. With his superior Taoist foundation and the fact that his Yuan Yang body has never been broken, the possibility of him cultivating a false elixir in the future is not low. If he can get enough opportunities, he may even have the potential to glimpse the realm of golden elixir. Song Qingming is slightly inferior, but his cultivation has now reached the fifth level of foundation building. If Taoist Zi Yu is a man of extraordinary talent, then Song Qingming is a man of steady and cautious approach. This person's cultivation speed is not fast, but he can move forward step by step, and he has not encountered any insurmountable bottlenecks along the way. If he can break through the bottleneck of the middle stage of foundation building next, he might really have a chance to form a pill in the future.
Judging from his increasingly clear blue aura, the possibility of him forming a pill in the future should not be low. "Brother Ye." Just as Ye Linyuan was observing the three people, the Taoist Zi Yu said, "Brother Song and I are going to participate in this war to hone ourselves and gain opportunities for cultivation." Ye Linyuan nodded, and then said: "You two have great backgrounds, but war is dangerous and unpredictable, so you need to be careful." Song Qingming smiled, and then said: "So we came here today to exchange some treasures with you." Ye Linyuan nodded, then took out a batch of talismans from his sleeve and handed them to the two of them. These were all second-grade top-grade talismans refined by Ye Linyuan himself, which were enough to become the trump card of a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building. Upon seeing this, the two men smiled, took out the treasures and returned them, each enriching their own resources. After doing all this, the two of them had a brief conversation with Ye Linyuan before tactfully leaving Yejia Island. After they left, Taoist Wuyun finally spoke. But he took a deep breath, and then said solemnly: "I am ready to participate in this war." Ye Linyuan nodded. Zhang Xuanyu, the great enemy of the Taoist Wuyun, was in the Luoxia Sea, so it was expected that he would take action. But after hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask: "Why don't you wait a little longer..." Taoist Wuyun understood what Ye Linyuan meant, because once he killed Zhang Xuanyu, his cultivation would surely break through to the great perfection of foundation building. But in this case, Taoist Wuyun will inevitably face the person behind the scenes, and he will probably be in a situation of death. "There's no point anymore." Taoist Wu Yun hesitated for a moment, then said, "I am already over 230 years old this year, and I am afraid I won't be able to wait for another opportunity. I might as well try my best while I still have plenty of energy." When Ye Linyuan heard this, he couldn't help but sigh. He understood what Taoist Wuyun meant, and Taoist Wuyun also understood what he meant. In fact, he wanted Taoist Wuyun to wait for a while, until Ye Linyuan broke through the Jindan realm before breaking through again. However, in the opinion of Taoist Wuyun, the Cang Hai Ming Yue Gong is difficult to practice, and it would be difficult for Ye Linyuan to break through the Jindan realm in a short period of time. Moreover, even if he wanted to break through to the Jindan stage, there were still two great enemies, Li Changzhou and Canghai Sect Master, so the possibility of him breaking through to the Jindan stage alive was very slim. Moreover, even if Ye Linyuan broke through the Jindan stage and escaped from the hands of Sect Master Canghai, it would be impossible for him to break through the Jiedan stage. It's very simple. Once Ye Linyuan interferes with his golden elixir tribulation, the leader of Canghai Sect, who is the enemy of the Great Dao, will definitely not let him get his wish. In the end, Ye Linyuan will still be restrained by the Lord of Canghai Sect, and it is even likely to bring him greater trouble. So in Taoist Wuyun’s mind, either Ye Linyuan had to help him before he formed the elixir, or it would be difficult for him to spare the energy to help him after he formed the elixir. In this situation, he might as well take advantage of his prime to try his luck at forming a pill. In this regard, Ye Linyuan could only sigh silently. After all, his current cultivation was not enough, and he didn't know how much help he could provide to Taoist Wuyun after he formed the pill, so it was difficult for him to make a guarantee. Having said this, both parties fell into silence. After a while, Taoist Wu Yun said, "I came here to ask you for a trump card in this battle."
When Ye Linyuan heard this, he understood that Taoist Wuyun wanted him to help with the fake pill puppet, but he still hesitated. It is not a problem to take out the fake pill puppet, but this treasure is already half an exposed card, and it is possible that it will be taken away by the enemies of the Taoist Wuyun. Thinking of this, Ye Linyuan couldn't help but ask: "Are you sure?" Taoist Wu Yun hesitated for a moment, then said, "This battle is a good opportunity, and it is also my chance to achieve enlightenment." As Taoist Wuyun told his story, Ye Linyuan gradually understood Taoist Wuyun's opportunity. Because the Tianxing Sword Sect was reviving too quickly and they were worried that after they took down the Luoxia Sect, they would attack other forces, so the Sanyuan Alliance formed an alliance with the Luoxia Sect and prepared to fight against the Tianxing Sword Sect together. It is precisely because of this that the Tianxing Sword Sect is preparing to support Taoist Wuyun and protect him in breaking through the Jindan realm. By then, the four sword masters of the Tianxing Sword Sect will be able to at least stop the two golden elixirs of the Luoxia Sect and two of the three golden elixirs of the Sanyuan League. Taoist Wuyun only needs to deal with the enemy of the Great Dao. Understanding this, Ye Linyuan couldn't help but nodded. The cultivation level of the Five Elements old man is only the second level of the Golden Core. Although he can be regarded as an old-fashioned Golden Core, he is, after all, just a casual cultivator. His foundation and strength should not be comparable to that of the Pure Nirvana Taoist. If Ye Linyuan lends out the fake pill puppet, and with the help of the old ghost Xuehun, the possibility of protecting Taoist Wuyun and allowing him to achieve enlightenment and survive is not low. In this case, Taoist Wuyun might still have a glimmer of hope of forming an elixir. Even at the worst, facing this Five Elements Old Man, the possibility of Ye Linyuan escaping with the fake pill puppet is not too low. So after thinking about it, Ye Linyuan said, "Taoist, taking advantage of the great war to achieve enlightenment is indeed the best choice, but how should Daoist, your golden elixir be formed?" "After defeating Luoxia Sect, or after winning the war and receiving war compensation, Tianxing Sword Sect will start refining the golden elixir again." Taoist Wu Yun spoke calmly, and then said: "By then, if I have made enough merits, I can exchange it for a genuine Jindan." Upon hearing this, Ye Linyuan couldn't help but sigh. It is not an easy task to achieve enlightenment and form a golden elixir through military exploits. Even though Taoist Wuyun is considered the number one independent cultivator in the Tianxing Sea, it would probably be difficult for him to achieve such a huge feat. The only thing he could do was to fight to the death with all his might, risking his life for a chance to achieve enlightenment. This was Taoist Wuyun's only chance, and perhaps his only chance in this life. After thinking it over, Ye Linyuan sighed and said, "Just go ahead and fight. If it comes to a critical moment, I will help you secretly." Upon hearing this, Taoist Wu Yun couldn't help but smile and said, "With Brother Ye's help, I am more confident." As he said this, Taoist Wuyun took out three magic weapons: the Purple Thunder Pearl, the Ice Sword, and the Wind Chime, and handed them to Ye Linyuan. "When we were treasure hunting together, this formation had no clear owner. It was just temporarily loaned to Liu Xuanheng to help him overcome the tribulation." "I'm not good at compound formations, and I'm not sure I can make good use of this magic weapon, so I'd better give it to Brother Ye for safekeeping." Ye Linyuan took the three magic weapons, took one last look at Wu Yun Taoist, and said after a moment of hesitation: "If you don't have this treasure to help you, I'm afraid you won't be able to survive the catastrophe." Taoist Wu Yun sighed and said, "If I can get the chance to form a pill, I can naturally break through in the Tianxing Sword Sect." "If I can't get it, it will bring disaster to me if I keep it."
