Chapter 2231

However, when he found Xiao Hua and saw that there were already four disciples inside, the fire in his heart couldn't help but burst out. "I, your father, am shamelessly colluding with people outside, and you, on the other hand, are hiding in a place to cultivate!

If it weren't for Master's orders, I wouldn't care about your life or death! "

Immediately after, Cui Hongshen glared at Xiao Hua, turned around and found the furthest quiet room. Without greeting the three Aura Refining disciples inside, he sat down.

"Greetings, Martial Uncle!" When the three Aura Refining disciples saw a Foundation Establishment disciple enter, they didn't dare to be negligent and hastily stood up to salute him.

"En." Cui Hongshen waved his sleeves and didn't return the salute. He also closed his eyes and meditated.

The three Aura Refining disciples looked at each other with strange expressions on their faces …

The northwest of the country of Xi was already very cold. Although it wasn't as cold as the country of Huan, it was a world of ice and snow!

However, the mountains and forests were often covered in snow. Even the peaks of some high mountains and precipitous ridges were covered in white snow all year round!

There were very few people from the secular world who could live here. Only at the edge of the mountains and forests, some mortals would gather in slightly warmer places. Naturally, they couldn't live by growing rice. Most of them hunted and dug out the spiritual herbs in the mountains and forests to make a living!

Naturally, these spiritual herbs couldn't be compared to the spiritual herbs cultivators consumed. They were just some slightly older spiritual herbs that were extremely common in the eyes of cultivators.

This vile environment was fatal to the people of the secular world, but to cultivators, it was extremely tempting!

That was because the northwest of the country of Xi had dense spiritual energy and abundant natural resources. There were many spiritual herbs that could withstand the cold and there were even more than ten large and small spirit stone veins!

Under these circumstances, not only were there many cultivation families, but there were also several cultivation sects!

Among these cultivation families, the most famous ones were Skyscraper Ridge's Bai Clan, Glacier Valley's Mei Clan, and Cool Breeze Mountain's Niu Clan. Their Clan Heads were all in the late stage of Foundation Establishment and were only a step away from entering the Gold Core realm!

There were also many other small cultivation families, but they were all below the middle stage of Foundation Establishment and couldn't enter the eyes of the cultivation sects!

As for the cultivation sects, there were the Ice Soul Sect, the Snow Crow Sect, the Pine Wave Ridge, and the Cold Mountain Enlightenment Sect. The Sect Leaders of these sects were basically at the early or middle stage of the Gold Core Realm. The strongest one was almost at the late stage of the Gold Core Realm!

Of course, including these cultivation families and sects, Sky Patrol City was the most powerful one!

Sky Patrol City was one of the seven major cities in the Country of Xi. Its City Lord, Perfected Xue Yu, was already an Early Nascent Soul Stage cultivator!

Sky Patrol City was different from Jingbo City and Qiyue City. It was built on the Snowy Highlands, at the peak of the Snowy Highlands. The entire city was like a fortress in the snow. Standing on the city walls, one could see the Snowy Highlands within a few thousand miles!

From this point of view, Sky Patrol City was somewhat similar to Haoming City!

However, there were both cultivators and people from the secular world in Haoming City. Since the Sky Patrol City was high up in the sky, it was impossible to come up without the help of the Teleportation Formation without flying techniques. Therefore, all the people in the city were cultivators!

There was not a single person from the secular world!

Usually, there were not many cultivators flying out of Sky Patrol City. Only the city guards of Sky Patrol City would go out at fixed intervals to patrol the area within a few hundred miles of Sky Patrol City. Most of the ordinary cultivators would use the Teleportation Formation!

After all, this was the Snowy Highlands. Although the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth was abundant, the weather was harsh. The cultivators who lived like princes would not waste their magic power to fight against the cold wind and snowstorms.

However, in the past few years, the situation had changed greatly. Not only were there more cultivators flying in from the wind and snow, but there were also more cultivators who came in groups on flying artifacts!

The streets of Sky Patrol City, which used to be slightly deserted, were now crowded.

Needless to say, this was caused by the invasion of the Xi Country by the sword cultivators of the Huan Country!

Of course, Sky Patrol City was still far from the border between the Huan Country and the Xi Country. The sword cultivators of the Huan Country had not reached here yet. However, this was the largest city in the Xi Country near the Huan Country. It had always been the stronghold where the sword cultivators rested when they fought against the Dao Sect. Regardless of whether it was the Xi Country, the Meng Country, or the Lian Country, most of the cultivators gathered here. The leaders of the sects of the three countries were elected to command the battle against the sword cultivators!

It was because of this that the number of cultivators increased. Some rogue cultivators, cultivation families, and even cultivators who were not selected by the sects gathered here. Some small auction gatherings and trading gatherings gradually became prosperous. Even the shops in Sky Patrol City became lively.

It was as if the tension of the war had not reached here yet!

However, this was normal. For tens of thousands of years, or even a hundred thousand years, the sword cultivators had invaded the Xi Country, but they had never attacked Sky Patrol City!

According to the records of Sky Patrol City, it was only two hundred thousand years ago that the sword cultivators occasionally attacked Sky Patrol City. However, only three years later, Sky Patrol City was seized by the Dao Sect again!

They chased the sword cultivators out of the Xi Country!

In addition, the Governor of Sky Patrol City had always been a Nascent Soul cultivator!

That was equivalent to the Sect Leader of the Sword Transformation Realm. If the Governor of Sky Patrol City wanted to participate in the war, then the Sect Leaders of the three major sects in the Xi Country would definitely come. The Sect Leaders of Meng Country and Lian Country would also come. With these Nascent Soul cultivators, what danger would Sky Patrol City have?

Therefore, the cultivators who did not participate in the war were not afraid of anything!

If the sword cultivators came, they could just run away!

However, what about the cultivators who participated in the war?

On this day, it was snowing heavily like goose feathers, covering the entire sky. Sky Patrol City stood at the peak of the snowy region, and the entire city was covered in snow!

It was not that Sky Patrol City did not have a defensive array, but this array was divided into several levels. The highest level could certainly block the snowflakes, but this would consume a lot of spirit stones. The Sky Patrol City had no reason to waste them.

Even in such a snowy day, the cultivators did not stop their footsteps. Many of them flashed with brilliance, blocking the snowflakes outside their bodies. From time to time, they entered and exited the city gate of Sky Patrol City.

"Make way, make way …" A loud voice sounded from afar. "There's a battle report from the Western Front!"

"Western Front?

What's wrong with the Western Front? "

When the cultivators heard this, they all dodged and made way for the sky leading to the gate of the Sky Patrol City. A few older cultivators stopped in mid-air and looked at an Early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator who was wearing the Sky Patrol City's guard uniform and holding a snow-white flag in his hand. They frowned and asked loudly.

"The battle report has to be sent to the Yan Xi Mansion before the seniors in the mansion can send it out. I dare not make the decision without permission!"

The city guard unceremoniously cupped his hands and his figure did not stop in mid-air. He swept past these cultivators and rushed into Sky Patrol City.

"Sigh, it's been nearly a year!

This confrontation with the Huan Country … there's never been any good news. This time, looking at your city guard's anxious expression, I'm afraid it's not good news! "A Middle-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator sighed and said to a Late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator next to him.

"En!"

The old man was flying towards Sky Patrol City. He glanced at the cultivator who spoke to him and nodded. "The Sword Cultivators of the Huan Country have always been more powerful than us!

Moreover, this time, they struck first to gain the initiative and came prepared. It would be strange if we could drive them out at the beginning of the battle!

In this old man's opinion, this time will be the same as before. There won't be anything special. The cultivators of the three countries are gradually gathering. When the disciples of the various sects and clans arrive, our strength will also increase!

The disadvantage of this battle will gradually be reversed. In the end, the Sword Cultivators will still be driven away! "

"That's right, I think so too!"

The Middle-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator said with a smile, "The Sword Cultivators and our Dao Sect cultivators have not crossed swords once or twice!

For so many years, they have been holed up in the Huan Country. It's unlikely that they will rush out this time! "

"Actually, the Sword Cultivators and our Dao Sect don't have much of a grudge. Other than this battle, the disciples of the various countries usually cross swords with each other, and there hasn't been any foul play!"

The old man was very disapproving. "I heard that the Sword Cultivators attacked our Xi Country with the excuse that their swordsmen went missing in Meng Country!

And the senior who went to look for them was also killed!

Don't you think … this is nonsense?

If any cultivator from the Three Kingdoms of Cultivation were to die, why would the sects attack and kill them?

Our three countries have suffered many losses in Huan Country, but we haven't attacked Huan Country on a large scale? "

"That's right!"

The Middle-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator agreed. "If it's possible, why don't our three countries attack Huan Country and kill all the Sword Cultivators!"

"Ignorant!" The old man scolded. "If we kill the Sword Cultivators, who will resist the millions of soul cultivators in Meng Mountain?

Don't forget that soul cultivators are extremely difficult to deal with. The flying swords of the Sword Cultivators are the nemesis of soul spells. Our Dao Sect's spells won't work! "

"Yes, I have indeed forgotten the pros and cons of this layer!"

The Foundation Establishment cultivator smiled apologetically. "Thinking about the unpredictable soul spells of the Soul Cultivators, I almost feel my hair stand on end!"

"Let's go ~ After entering the city gate, Yan Xi Mansion is just ahead. Let's go and see what happened!" As the two spoke, they had already arrived at the city gate.

In front of the city gate, which was dozens of feet high, stood dozens of guards of the Sky Patrol City. Most of them were in the Qi Refinement realm, and only a few were in the Foundation Establishment realm!

The highest cultivation level was actually close to the Middle-stage Foundation Establishment realm.

"Seniors, do you have an identity token issued by the three countries?" Two Qi Refinement disciples respectfully stepped forward to salute and stopped the two!

"En, I am a cultivator of the Rock Border Sect. This time, I happened to be in Xi Country to gain experience. This is my token!" The Middle-stage Foundation Establishment old man clapped his hand and took out a token and handed it to the disciple.

"Oh ~ Senior, please wait a moment!"

The disciple reached out and took it. With a clap of his hand, he took out a mirror-like magical item from his storage bag and placed it on the token!

When he activated his magic power, the mirror flashed with white light. Within the white light, there were three halos of different colors. One of the halos actually revealed the image of the old man!

"Senior, please!"

After the disciple finished checking, he returned it to the old man and smiled apologetically. "Senior's token was issued jointly by the three countries. The magic power fluctuations in it are the same!"
