"Alright, Zheng Xiuyi, tidy up this place and meet up with Li Piaoyang and Guo Ping. We'll discuss what to do. I'll make arrangements for you if there's anything."
Ling Yun said to Zheng Xiuyi after he finished looting the resource warehouse.
"Sect Master, do you want me to take you to the two warehouses on the Human Peak and Heaven Peak?" Zheng Xiuyi asked respectfully.
"No need."
Ling Yun rejected directly.
Ling Yun had already checked the storeroom at the Human Peak with his divine sense. It was more like a living storeroom than a cultivation resource storeroom. Even though it was much larger than the Earth Peak's resource storeroom, it mostly stored beef, mutton, rice, noodles, vegetables, and various clothes.
Other than that, the rest were just some training weapons. They were just some ordinary swords and sabers. There was nothing special about them.
Ling Yun couldn't waste his time on these things, so he rejected directly.
As for the Heaven Peak, Qin Qiuyue and Qin Dongxue were there. They would be staying there for at least another seven days, so Ling Yun wasn't in a hurry.
"Let's go to the peak."
In the next moment, Ling Yun brought Ye Xingchen and Bai Xianer to the peak of the Earth Peak.
He sized them up.
"Ling Yun, looks like you've really shocked them. They didn't dare to slack off last night and cleaned up this place in the middle of the night."
Ye Xingchen looked around and couldn't help but laugh.
It could be said that the Earth Peak was the main battlefield last night. The battle here was the most intense. Due to the fact that it was the peak of the mountain, it was naturally the most severely damaged. Houses collapsed and there were broken walls and debris everywhere. Corpses were everywhere and blood flowed like a river.
First, Ye Xingchen attacked the mountain, killing all the way from the foot of the mountain to the peak. Then, Ling Yun rushed over and dominated the Heavenly Sword Lethal Formation. Finally, he seized control of the Heavenly Sword Lethal Formation, pursued Zhao Mingtang, and fought Di Heyi!
The Heavenly Swords, Earth Swords, Sword Qi, and Sword Rain had severely damaged this place. Not a tenth of the buildings remained. Other than the scattered houses in the corners, the rest of the buildings on the Earth Peak had been razed to the ground!
But at this moment, the corpses were gone, and the collapsed houses had been cleaned up. All the bricks and rubble had been removed, and the ground had been filled up and washed with clean water. Everything was clean.
If it weren't for the new soil that was spread across the huge peak like scars, it would seem as if there had never been any buildings here, nor had it suffered any damage. It was just a huge flat square.
"Hehe, of course. There are more than 140 people, and all of them are cultivators. There are even 15 of them who can fly."
Now that the main matters had been settled, Ling Yun relaxed and said with a smile.
At this moment, he was standing in the original meeting hall of the Heaven Sword Sect, staring at the Formation Eye of the Mountain Guarding Grand Formation, pondering.
Ling Yun was considering whether he should restore the Mountain Defense Formation.
Shua!
With a thought, the azure sword appeared in Ling Yun's hand. It floated in the air and shone with a green brilliance under the sun.
"Such a powerful Sword Qi!"
Ye Xingchen and Bai Xianer took a step back at the same time as the sword aura struck their bodies.
Ling Yun smiled. "This is the Formation Eye of the Heaven Sword Sect's Mountain Guarding Grand Formation."
"Come to think of it, it was a fluke. Last night, if it weren't for the four disciples of Kunlun, they would have realized that they were no match for us when we attacked. If Di Heming or Di Heyi personally controlled the formation, the outcome would have been hard to predict."
In front of Ye Xingchen and Bai Xianer, Ling Yun didn't need to hide anything.
"This Mountain Guarding Grand Formation is actually so powerful?!"
Ye Xingchen was very shocked. He remembered attacking the mountain alone last night and almost reaching the Formation Eye of the Sky Sword Killing Formation. He couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.
"That's right. Remember, unless a cultivation sect doesn't have a Mountain Guarding Grand Formation, as long as it does, the greatest power of the Mountain Guarding Grand Formation is usually no weaker than the strongest person in the sect."
"The only difference is who's in control."
Ling Yun didn't forget to give them some pointers.
Ye Xingchen looked at the azure sword and asked, "Then, are you going to restore this Mountain Guarding Grand Formation?"
"Not for now."
Ling Yun thought about it and decided to give up. He put away the azure sword and said seriously, "I have three reasons for keeping these Heaven Sword Sect disciples alive.
"First, among these 147 people, excluding Li Piaoyang and the other two, there are 12 experts in the middle stage of Qi Refining, 15 experts in the early stage of Qi Refining, 28 experts in the late stage of Connate, and a small half of the other 89 are in the Connate realm."
"This force is really not weak, weaker than any ancient martial arts sect or hidden family. It would be a pity to cripple them, but keeping them alive will be of great use.
"Second, this is the northwest of Huaxia. It can be said that the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the location is absolutely hidden. We need to have a place here as a stronghold in the future."
Ling Yun's eyes flashed as he spoke frankly with assurance. Now, Jiangnan and Qingshui City were the place where Ling Yun rose to power. That was his absolute sphere of influence. In Beijing, there was the Ling Family. Today, the Ling Family had already formed a tripartite situation with the other two big families in Huaxia, the Long Family and the Ye Family.
In the hinterland of Huaxia, the Qin Family, after Ling Yun destroyed the Heaven Sword Sect, was equivalent to having a huge mountain over their heads. In the future, with Ling Yun's support, they would definitely rise rapidly.
Then, what Ling Yun currently lacked was the northwest of Huaxia. Whether it was Tianshan or Kunlun Mountain, no matter what happened, he would be unable to do anything. He wouldn't even be able to receive news from this side.
Now, with the Lingyun Sword Sect, Ling Yun had his own territory in the northwest.
"Third, there's only the Tarim Basin between this place and the Kunlun Mountain range. It's only a thousand miles away."
Ling Yun turned and looked in the southwest direction, his eyes full of vigor. "Not only can they help me guard this place, but they can also go to Kunlun Mountain to scout and gather information. Once there's any movement over there, we'll know very quickly. Then, we'll be able to respond in time.
"The four disciples sent by Kunlun have been killed by me. It won't take long for Kunlun to confirm this news. When that time comes, they will definitely make an even bigger move against me. I have to be on guard.
"Therefore, this Lingyun Sword Sect will be a nail I've inserted into the northwest of Huaxia. When that time comes, we won't be deaf and blind anymore. We can know ourselves and our enemies, and this place will also become our first barrier."
There was one more thing that Ling Yun didn't say. In the future, if he wanted to kill his way into Kunlun and turn it upside down, he would naturally pass through this place.
"Are you afraid that Kunlun will send more people over if you don't repair this Mountain Guarding Formation?"
Ye Xingchen immediately understood Ling Yun's intentions and immediately deduced other things from this.
"Hehe, that's indeed the case. I can repair the formation at any time while I'm here, but if I'm not here and Kunlun sends more experts over, this formation will be useless. Instead, it will be destroyed by them and I'll be at a great disadvantage if the formation core is destroyed."
Bai Xianer's beautiful eyes blinked. "Big Brother Ling Yun, do you mean to wait for Kunlun's people to come here to scout before repairing the formation?"
Ling Yun ruffled Bai Xianer's hair and smiled. "That's right."
Ye Xingchen asked, "Then will you impart cultivation techniques to these disciples?"
Ling Yun replied without hesitation, "I will definitely impart some techniques, but I'll have to wait for Kunlun's disciples to come. When that time comes, it'll depend on their performance."
In the Cultivation World, Ling Yun had trampled over too many sword cultivation sects and killed too many sword immortals who were comparable to the Tribulation Passing Stage. Therefore, he had plenty of sword cultivation techniques on him, and any one of them was stronger than the Sky Sword Sect's. Thus, he didn't lack sword cultivation techniques.
However, although these disciples of the Lingyun Sword Sect had pledged their allegiance to him, they were different from the Ling Family and Ling Yun's 72 disciples. They weren't Ling Yun's direct descendants, so he had to treat them differently.
Therefore, nurturing them depended on their performance and, more importantly, Ling Yun's mood.
"Ling Yun, are you just going to leave them like this? Don't you need to place some restrictions on the people in charge? "
Ye Xingchen reminded Ling Yun worriedly.
"There's no need! Xingchen, you're worrying too much. "
Ling Yun smiled. "Li Piaoyang's realm is the highest, but he's only at the pinnacle of Qi Refinement Stage Six. Even if he really wants to escape, he'll hide after escaping. He won't dare to attack us. Moreover, no matter if it's to live or to cultivate, they need a quiet place. Where in the world is there a better place than here? "
"That's true."
Ye Xingchen smiled. "You're not even killing them now, so why would they risk being hunted down to escape? There's really no need for that."
A fine bird chooses a good tree to nest in. After Ling Yun destroyed the Sky Sword Sect, not only did he not make things difficult for these people, he even gave them power and freedom. If they still wanted to escape, they would really be idiots. There was no point in keeping such people alive.
Swoosh swoosh!
As they spoke, a figure flew over and landed in front of the three.
It was Tie Xiaohu.
"Big Brother Yun."
Tie Xiaohu told Ling Yun, "Everything's done at Sky Peak."
Ling Yun nodded.
Tie Xiaohu continued, "Big Brother Yun, Auntie Qin has already used the communication device to contact the family and said many things. Then, she also contacted Lingyu and asked her to come here immediately. "
Ling Yun knew that Qin Dongxue and Qin Qiuyue would definitely contact the Qin Family and Ning Lingyu after exchanging a few words. That was inevitable.
Therefore, he asked immediately, "What did Lingyu say?"
Tie Xiaohu said, "Auntie Qin told me that Lingyu will rush to the Qin Family first, then the Qin Family will send a plane to send her here."
"Also, Big Brother Yun, Auntie Qin asked if you could send two people to Kunlun Mountain as soon as possible to tell the Ning Family about the situation here."
Ling Yun knew that his mother had already made a decision regarding Ning Tianya's matter. Ning Lingyu wanted to see her father for the last time, and the Ning Family also wanted to send someone to settle Ning Tianya's funeral.
"Yes, that's what I should do. I'll make the arrangements now."
…
The plot of saving his mother at Sky Mountain ends tomorrow.
