Chapter 204 The demon clan attacks
Pu'nan City, the largest city in Ciyun Dharma Realm, looking down from a distance, the undulating city stretches out flat on the valley plains. The golden sunlight gilds the thousands of pagodas scattered among them with a layer of gold, creating a scene of a Buddhist kingdom on earth.

But the lingering evil spirit destroyed the solemnity and peace.

Suddenly, an extremely enchanting demonic aura, like a stone entering a mirror lake, stirred up ripples in the calm Buddha's light.

In the meditation room of Chanyin Temple, Bodhisattva Jingyuan sat cross-legged, meditating and practicing Buddhism.

He seemed to sense something, his eyelids moved slightly and he looked towards the main door, then he saw a wisp of evil wind seeping in from the crack of the Zen room's door, and when it landed on the ground it turned into a figure wearing a cassock.

Upon closer inspection, it was the Dragon Bodhisattva who had recently lost his reputation.

He said jokingly, "When I came here, I saw that the people in the city were all praising Yunli's name, and some even raised money to build a temple. Judging from this, it won't be long before Punan City will change hands. The master is really courageous. He actually has the mood to meditate and gain enlightenment here."

Bodhisattva Jing Yuan said indifferently: "I don't know whether Punan City has changed hands, but the Sky Rift Valley of the Master has changed hands."

Bodhisattva Long was not annoyed when he heard this, and smiled and said, "Master Yunli is the Lord of Ciyun appointed by Aniruddha Buddha after all, so what's wrong with giving him a Sky Rift Valley? As for Master Yunli, he can only watch the followers of Ciyun Temple move around in the city, but he can do nothing about it. Isn't it sad?"

Bodhisattva Jing Yuan had no expression on his face. "You don't need to sow discord. Master Yunli and I are both from the same Buddhist sect. As long as all living beings can escape suffering and attain nirvana together, it will be the greatest blessing in the world! What method we practice and what path we take, what difference does it make?"

"is it?"

Bodhisattva Long laughed:
"The master and I are both from the Buddhist sect. If I were to debate with Master Yunli, would Master Jingyuan take sides?"

Bodhisattva Jingyuan's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he looked at Bodhisattva Long with a piercing gaze. After a while, he put his hands together and bowed to the Buddha:
"Amitabha! Since you want to discuss the Dharma, why bother talking to me? I am devoted to meditation and Buddhist practice and do not like the noise of the world."

"Jing Yuan is indeed a model of Buddhism!"

Bodhisattva Long smiled slightly, and his figure suddenly turned into a wisp of evil spirit, which drifted away from the meditation room.

Bodhisattva Jingyuan remained silent and subconsciously raised his eyes to look towards the city of Punan.

The walls of the Zen room could not block his gaze. On the street, there was a constant flow of people, including hunters selling mountain products, villagers coming to the city to buy, wandering monks, and even monsters transformed into human forms.

He was already familiar with this kind of scenery.

This is also the world of great harmony he is trying to build!
——Since the demons in Uttarakuru Continent cannot be eliminated, then we should reform them. At least, the demons in the Qinggang Mountains rarely do evil anymore.

However, if you look closely, you will find that among the crowded crowd, there are earthen puppets walking in groups of three or two.

The people around here are no longer surprised by this.

Perhaps, some of these earth puppets are natives of Pu Nan City.

In fact, these earth puppets have long been integrated into the local community, and many dirty and tiring jobs have gradually been replaced by earth puppets. Thanks to the Internet Secret Realm's ban on "not actively attacking humans", earth puppets are quite popular in the local community.

Look, three or five pagodas have been built on the edge of the city, and the Buddhist niches on the pagodas are dedicated to Master Yunli.

There are also rumors that many believers have spontaneously organized themselves to raise funds to establish a sect and build a resurrection site in Pu'nan City.

In this way, if the earth puppet accidentally dies in the future, it can be quickly resurrected in Pu Nan City.

All of this made Bodhisattva Jingyuan shudder.

Ciyu Temple developed too fast, and its infiltration into Pu'nan City was beyond his imagination.

All this seemed to happen overnight.

By the time he reacted, he was already powerless to stop it.

He had no other choice but to instruct Chanyin Temple to spread more Buddha's light and win more faith.

He couldn't legitimately expel these earth puppets;
It is even more impossible to exclude these earth puppets because many local residents are involved in them.

Fortunately...it's all almost over.

Bodhisattva Jingyuan gently closed his eyes and calmed his agitated Zen heart.

……

……

At this moment, the one who was also extremely excited was the breeze that was pulling the person away.

In recent days, he has been almost always online and is very busy.

To outsiders, founding a new school of thought is an extremely glorious thing. In fact, it is indeed so, and it can be said to be a mixture of pain and joy.

He was suffering from the endless things to do every day. Even though he started to delegate power and recruited many players to help him manage, he was still very busy.
But he also had to admit that watching the Qingfeng Sect improve and grow little by little in his hands, this feeling made him more excited than the growth of his own realm!
Especially with the destruction of the Sky Rift Valley, a large number of players lost their points for gaining points and rushed to the Qingfeng Sect, which made the Qingfeng Sect even stronger.

The growth of Qingfeng Sect also led to the growth of his realm.

Now, comprehending the fragments of the Great Dao is no longer enough to support the growth of his realm, and he still needs incense as nourishment.

Fortunately, this thing can also be exchanged!

According to the current development momentum of Qingfeng Sect, perhaps within a year or two, he would be able to break through the realm of refining his spirit and return to emptiness, reaching the realm of celestial immortal he had always dreamed of.

All this made him very proud!
"Ding dong!"

An urgent message interrupted his reverie.

After clicking on the message, Wanliren frowned.

[A large number of puppets suddenly appeared in Cuilinggang! 】

Along with the news, there is also a video, which was obviously shot by a player. In the shaky lens, you can see dense creatures moving around in the forest.

"What's happening here?"

Wan Liren was filled with surprise and was about to verify the news when suddenly, he heard a continuous ding-dong sound from the backstage.

"Master, Mount Shatuo has been attacked!"

"The creek mouth was attacked!"

"A large number of puppets of unknown origin appeared in Yandangling."

Wan Liren was stunned, and he was asking for confirmation of the news.

A scarlet pop-up window suddenly appeared in the field of vision.

[Warning: Qingfeng Sect was attacked, and a limited-time epic mission - Ciyun Watch! ]

[Mission Reward: During the limited-time mission, the reward for hunting down evil spirits will be doubled...]

[Title system is open: players who participate in epic quests will receive limited-time titles based on their participation value. Spirit Hunter: 10% off Dao fragments. Ciyun Warrior: 20% off Dao fragments. Qingfeng Watcher: 30% off Dao fragments; Ciyun Watcher: 40% off Dao fragments...]

Looking at the scarlet pop-up window in front of him, Wan Liren looked confused.

It took a while before he came back to his senses.

Qingfeng Sect was attacked?
The demons are attacking?
So fast?
To be honest, he had thought about the possibility of being attacked by evil spirits when he chose to establish his sect far away from the Qinggang Mountains, but he had never thought it would happen so soon?

If it weren't for the reminder of the Internet secret realm mission, he would probably still be in a fog.

When he came to his senses, he didn't bother to complain or regret, but rushed out of the sect to check the situation.

At the same time, the Secret Realm Forum was already in an uproar.

The news came too suddenly.

Just a moment ago, there were still three or five sporadic eyewitness videos on the forum;
The next second, the mission of attacking Qingfeng Sect was directly launched. The response speed was astonishing.

"Fuck, what's going on?"

"The Northern Continent is calling?"

"Another limited-time mission. What the hell is this limited-time title?"

"Fuck, this is indeed a limited-time mission. Isn't this limited-time title too awesome?"

"Come on!"

After getting over the initial confusion, the players in the secret realm are happy to hear about the war.

Who could resist that generous reward?

Especially the limited-time title, it is really enviable.

The fragments of the avenue that usually require a large amount of merit to exchange are now all discounted. The lowest level title, Monster Hunter, can be obtained simply by participating in hunting monsters. It is basically given for free.

If we don't act now, when will we?

For a moment, countless players gave up their tasks and rushed to Qingfeng Sect, just in time to run into the invading demon tribe.

At this time, many players were surprised to find that the monsters dispatched this time were not ordinary monsters, but... puppets!
That’s right, these are clay puppets also made with the energy of the earth’s veins.

The difference is that most of these earth puppets are in the shape of animals, and their behavior seems very rigid, just rushing around recklessly.

However, even so, the players were still stunned. Could it be that the demon race had copied the secret realm of the Internet?
Before the players could think about it, a loud shout suddenly came from the crowd:
"These are all puppets controlled by humans. As long as the puppeteer is killed, these puppets will collapse without a fight!"

The players suddenly realized what was going on after hearing this. They looked carefully and saw that, indeed, among the group of puppets, there was a demon clan hiding timidly among them, controlling the puppet army.

"You scared your grandfather to death. I thought the demons also created an interconnected secret realm."

"Brothers, kill!"

The players rushed forward while cursing.

At this moment, everyone realized what it meant to be evenly matched.

As players are all earth puppets, they cannot actually gain any advantage when facing a massive army of puppets.

In this case, mindless killing is the most efficient.

However, the players have some reservations and are unable to exert their full strength.

For a while, the battle line was retreating step by step, and Wan Liren was so anxious that he had to move back and forth, trying his best to save the situation.

Unfortunately, even though he was in control of a phantom body and had the ability to refine Qi and transform into a spirit, he still felt overwhelmed when faced with a huge number of puppets.

The most important thing is that compared to the well-prepared demon clan, the players in the Internet secret realm are too loose.

Many players swarmed at the sect gate, forcing the demon tribe to retreat step by step;

Little did they know that there were also demons attacking from behind Qingfeng Sect, which were also defeating the players and were already approaching Qingfeng Sect.

The huge battlefield looked like chaos.

Outside the battlefield, Gu Yunli hid in the earth veins and overlooked the entire scene with the help of the earth's energy.

He had already made a plan for the attacks by the demon tribe.

Otherwise, it would not be possible to release epic tasks and open the title system so quickly.

But when the time came, he found that commanding a large-scale war was no easier than escaping to the fairyland.

The huge battlefield was too chaotic.

If he hadn't been constantly micro-managing and directing the players to fill in the gaps, the Qingfeng Sect's defense line would have collapsed long ago.

"No, this can't be the case. I can't be dragged into the battle line."

Gu Yunli pondered for a moment, and simply allocated some computing power to condense the situations he observed into a small map, which was then displayed to the players in a timely manner.

At this moment, a strategic map suddenly pops up in the upper right corner of the player's field of vision.

Many players were frightened and thought they were attacked by monsters.

Fortunately, the Internet Secret Realm often unreasonably pushes message pop-ups, so everyone has adapted to it.

Many people also left the battlefield and took a look at the strategic map.

All I saw was the map of Qingfeng Sect clearly marked on it, with a large number of green and red dots flashing on the map.

When you open the map, an introduction will pop up. The green dots represent our people, and the red dots represent the enemy.

Through the map, the battlefield dynamics are clear at a glance.

"What a good thing! If we had this thing when we fought in Sky Rift Valley, would we still have to wander around outside?"

"Gu Zhenzai really won't cry until he sees the coffin. He keeps the good things hidden all day long."

"Shit, there's danger in the rear, go get support!"

The emergence of the strategic map surprised the players.

While they were complaining, some players soon discovered that the deployment of troops on the battlefield was unbalanced, and they took the initiative to withdraw from the battlefield and go to support areas with weak defenses.

Seeing this scene, Gu Yunli finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This is the quality that the Fourth Disaster should have!
Only then did he have the energy to carefully observe the entire battlefield.

It is said that the Qingfeng Sect is far away from the Ciyu Temple, but in fact it is not far from the Qinggang Mountains and is basically located on the south side of the Daguan River.

From this point of view, Wanliren's original choice of location was not an impulse.

The reason is very simple. The area north of the Daguan River is the heartland of the demon tribe. Although there are many humans living there, most of them are enslaved and raised by the demon tribe, and their status is equivalent to that of livestock.

At this time, the demon puppet army was pouring out from the Daguan River.

Gu Yunli suspected that Bodhisattva Dragon had already been building the puppet formation, otherwise it would never be of this scale.

He also had to admit that the demon clan's puppet army might not be as flexible as the players, but with their huge numbers and fearless fighting style, they were already overwhelming the players.

Judging from the current trend, Qingfeng Sect is bound to lose!

Blessings are unparalleled, and misfortunes do not come singly.

Gu Yunli had just gained a clear understanding of the situation when news came from the direction of Tianli Valley that a large number of monsters were attacking.

"Divide the troops into two lines!"

Gu Yunli sighed and chose to ignore the attack in the direction of the Sky Rift Valley.

As long as Ciyu Temple is not lost, Tianli Valley is just an outpost that he can take over at any time.

As for Ciyu Temple, he didn't believe that Dragon Bodhisattva would dare to attack it.

Once it gets to this point, it will be all-out war and Aniruddha Buddha will have to intervene.

The key right now is to defend the Qingfeng Sect.

This is where the morale of the players of the Internet Secret Realm lies.

If Qingfeng Sect is lost, if players set up their own sect in the future, they will probably all flock to Qinggang Mountain, which will go against Gu Yunli's plan to kill the monster clan.

Gu Yunli took a deep breath, accessed the Internet backend, and issued a recruitment order.

【Ciyun is in trouble, players please return quickly】

[During the Ciyun Watch period, all vehicles are given away for free, and the phantom body is half price. 】

With his operation, the news quickly made headlines on the Internet.

——If you want to defeat the demon clan’s puppet army in terms of numbers, you have to mobilize all the players. This will be a battle to gain a foothold!
……

After staying up all night, Sun Qier, who had just logged off, stretched out his body.

Recently, he has accumulated a lot of points and merits, and is not far from exchanging for the next piece of the Great Dao fragment. After practicing for this period of time, he has gradually stabilized his position in the realm of adjusting medicine, and is only one step away from the realm of collecting medicine.

He believed that as long as he could exchange for the next piece of the avenue fragment, breaking through the realm and collecting herbs would be a piece of cake.

By then, this broken body will no longer be able to restrain his free soul.

He wanted revenge, then fled to Xiniu Hezhou and joined Ciyu Temple in his physical body.

Or settle in the Qinggang Mountains.

"Ding dong!"

An unexpected piece of news interrupted Sun Qier's fantasy.

“Did you see the headlines?”

It was a message from Beet.

"No, what happened?"

Sun Qier was stunned. He replied to the message while checking the news headlines. When he saw the eight big words "The secret realm is in trouble, players return quickly", his brain suddenly went blank.

When he finished reading the news, his face turned pale.

"Are you online?"

Beet sent another message. After all, they had just endured a day and were exhausted.

"on!"

Sun Qier stared with bloodshot eyes and replied without thinking.

His life was changed by the interconnected secret world, and he would not allow anyone to destroy his hopes.
