Chapter 1654
Huge News
Because the righteous path of the Heavenly River Realm was making a great commotion during the preparations for the great battle, both the demons and monsters noticed this.
Through some clandestine means, they learned that the righteous path was intentionally targeting the weaker demonic path.
They were immediately in a terrible predicament, and the demonic cultivators of the demonic path were all on edge.
at the same time.
The only top-tier perfected force in the demonic path, the "Yinming Corpse Sect," is located in the fifth-tier top-grade ghost land, "Yinming Corpse Valley."
Inside a cave filled with demonic energy.
That scoundrel Yaoxing is really pushing his luck.
'I didn't expect them to target my sect so quickly.'
'This is getting a bit tricky.'
After learning everything, the Yinming Corpse Sect's Yinming Old Demon, who had reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, was furious.
Furthermore, upon closer inspection, it can be discovered that not only is it shrouded in a great deal of deathly aura, but its aura is also extremely weak.
He was clearly severely injured and didn't have much time left to live.
In addition, he knew that Yaoxing Daojun was in his prime and possessed formidable strength.
Moreover, it is highly likely that Yaoxing Daojun obtained the two newly refined fifth-grade top-quality arrow feathers from the Jinyuan Immortal Sect.
In this way, he had no chance of stopping it, and he would be lucky to even survive in a one-on-one fight.
He was extremely worried about the current actions of the righteous sects in the Heavenly River Realm.
After thinking it over, he sent a message to the Silver Moon Bear Lord of the Silver Moon Bear Clan, who was at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, for help.
"Truly, karma is a cycle."
"Several hundred years ago, when my demon race attacked the righteous path, an unexpected event occurred, which caused my demon race to be somewhat defeated. In order to ask your demonic path for help, my demon race paid a great price."
"Now that your demonic path is in dire straits, don't blame my demon race for being unethical if you don't offer some benefits."
"When the great chaos breaks out, my demon race will pretend not to know and simply guard our own little patch of land."
Although the Silver Moon Bear King had some connections with the Yinming Old Demon, it also knew that the demon race could not escape this calamity.
But hundreds of years ago, that old demon of the underworld swindled a large amount of resources from it.
It was really unwilling to give up, so it wanted to take this opportunity to earn it back.
'That bear really knows how to pick its time.'
The Old Demon of the Underworld gritted his teeth in anger, but unfortunately, this was the only ally he could win over at the moment.
After all, the entire Heavenly River Realm only has three forces: righteous, demonic, and evil. Now, the righteous path has become the enemy of the demonic path.
Naturally, only the demon race could be won over.
He had no choice but to back down.
However, the Yinming Corpse Sect's foundation was already weak, so he was unwilling to be swindled out of too many resources.
He then bargained with the Silver Moon Bear.
In the end, he took out many fifth-order demonic items.
Furthermore, he promised Silver Moon Bear that once the Ancient Ghost Realm opened, if they could work together to refine a fully-fledged Nascent Soul demon corpse using the power of countless evil spirits within, the demon corpse would belong directly to Silver Moon Bear.
"That's pretty much it."
"But don't worry, you old devil. Since I've agreed to this, I will definitely help you to the end."
"If that beast Yaoxing dares to touch you, I will be there immediately to help you stop him."
"Furthermore, my demon race will try its best to make some noise and involve more righteous forces to reduce the pressure on your demonic path."
Silver Moon Bear Lord was particularly pleased with those benefits, and immediately made a promise, taking the opportunity to swear an oath to Heaven and sign some Yuan Soul Contracts, etc.
After everything was settled, both parties ended the communication with satisfaction.
"I only hope that my demonic path can successfully overcome this calamity and preserve some of its strength."
"Otherwise, it will be difficult for my demonic path to obtain some opportunities to strengthen its foundation during the upcoming Ancient Ghost Realm."
The Old Demon of the Underworld gazed at the sky and muttered to himself.
Subsequently, he summoned the high-ranking members of his own sect, as well as the leaders of other demonic cultivation forces, to discuss the impending chaos in the righteous path.
In addition, he had previously spent a huge amount of money to persuade the demon race to help him.
He didn't want to bear the consequences alone.
He then obtained some resources from other demonic forces that had reached the Godhood stage.
This incident has made up for about 70% of the previous costs. In this way, even though the remaining 30% cost is still considerable, the Yinming Corpse Sect can barely afford it.
However, the other demonic cultivators who had reached the Nascent Soul stage were in dire straits, and they were heartbroken by this.
He couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards the Yinming Corpse Sect.
'That Yinming Old Demon is truly ruthless. If it weren't for the fact that our demonic path currently has no other cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage, and that the righteous path and the demon race are also eyeing us covetously.'
'Otherwise, we should really go against them directly.'
"Furthermore, it is rumored that whenever there is a major upheaval on the righteous path, the Radiant Star Immortal Sect, as the leader of the righteous path, treats the other righteous Nascent Soul cultivators extremely well, not only allocating large amounts of resources but also providing other preferential treatment."
'This kind of behavior is completely worlds apart from that of the Yinming Corpse Sect...'
Many Nascent Soul cultivators in the demonic path secretly cursed.
As demonic cultivators, they were extremely bloodthirsty and had long harbored resentment towards the Yinming Corpse Sect.
Moreover, given their superior numbers, they were extremely confident that, by working together, they could kill the Yinming Old Demon, whose lifespan was nearing its end.
It's a pity that once the Yinming Old Demon dies, those who are not integrated into the righteous path will also suffer misfortune.
They had no choice but to swallow their anger and obediently follow the orders of the Yinming Corpse Sect, calling on all demonic cultivators in the entire demonic realm to join the war.
Furthermore, they were extremely domineering during this period.
They lack the benevolence and righteousness of the righteous path and will use resources to attract those rogue cultivators and demonic practitioners.
They immediately dispatched powerful individuals to capture them, and killed them if they refused to comply.
It was like conscripting men.
Moreover, they suffered a significant loss of resources due to being cheated by the Yinming Corpse Sect.
They were reluctant to give recovery pills or talismans to those rogue cultivators and demonic practitioners.
They only wanted to use the lives of those rogue cultivators and demonic practitioners to crush the righteous path in the ensuing chaos.
Those rogue cultivators in the demonic realm were naturally aware of this matter.
Throughout history, great chaos has always resulted in the deaths of countless lives.
Those rogue cultivators and demonic practitioners were extremely afraid of this.
As a result, the actions of those powerful demonic forces in forcibly arresting rogue demonic cultivators caused considerable turmoil.
Many rogue cultivators and demonic practitioners attempted to resist, but were directly annihilated.
Many rogue cultivators and demonic practitioners even received the news and intended to flee.
But where can those rogue cultivators and demonic practitioners escape to?
Apart from the Demon Realm, the entire Heavenly River Realm consists of only two other realms: the Righteous Realm and the Demon Realm.
However, the righteous path is now determined to take action against the demonic path. If one were to flee to the righteous path, there would likely be no way out but death.
Furthermore, it seems that the demonic path and the demon race have reached a deep alliance. If they escape to the demon race's territory, they will probably not have a good ending.
Those rogue cultivators and demonic practitioners could only accept their fate.
At this moment, in a dense forest in the Demonic Path.
An elderly Foundation Establishment demonic cultivator fled to this place.
But he noticed that disciples from powerful factions were still chasing after him, and he felt utterly desperate.
"If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have listened to the slander from outsiders and taken the path of demonic cultivation to improve my cultivation." "If not for that, I wouldn't be in this predicament today."
'...'
In desperation, the old, rogue demonic cultivator had no choice but to temporarily seek refuge with the disciples of the powerful forces that were pursuing him, and serve those forces in order to temporarily gain a glimmer of hope.
In addition, like most demonic cultivators in the demonic realm, he originally followed the righteous path.
It was only because during his cultivation that he learned that some demonic paths could rapidly improve one's cultivation by sacrificing living beings that he was tempted to embark on the demonic path.
In addition, most of the other rogue cultivators in the Demonic Realm also gave up on escaping.
In an instant, the Nascent Soul stage demonic forces in various demonic realms gathered countless demonic cultivators.
Even a top-tier Ghost Dao Nascent Soul power like the Cangxuan lineage has recruited at least hundreds of millions of rogue demonic cultivators.
And it's free.
The only drawback might be that the strength levels of the rogue cultivators and demonic practitioners are uneven, and most of them are only at the early stage of Qi Refining.
Because they lack sufficient magical artifacts to aid them in battle, they may not be able to wage a protracted war in future encounters.
And this is a fatal weakness.
Therefore, the rogue cultivators and demonic practitioners who participated in the battle were not happy because of the large number of fellow practitioners, but instead frowned.
The atmosphere in the entire Demonic Path became somewhat oppressive.
……
In a blink of an eye.
As the time goes.
It has been half a year since the Shining Star Conference.
And so the day of war arrived.
now.
The Cangxuan lineage resides within the Blazing Sun Forest.
Inside a cave.
"Father, the family has learned through various means that both the demon race and the demonic path have recently gathered a considerable number of troops."
"The same applies to the Vajra Demon Rock Sect that we will need to deal with during the upcoming chaos."
"He even went to great lengths to recruit a renowned rogue cultivator in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm to assist him."
"..."
Ling Pengyun's third son, the beast tamer Ling Chengmie, came up to him and spoke to Ling Pengyun in detail.
Because he mastered the art of beast taming, he was able to use special methods to forcibly subdue demonic beasts and make them work for him.
In addition, in its early years it cultivated many powerful spirit beasts that were skilled in concealing their aura and using special techniques such as bewitching.
He was extremely adept at gathering all sorts of information.
In its early years, the family not only entrusted him with the management of the 'Beast Taming Hall', but also the 'Shadow Hall', which was responsible for gathering information from various places.
And he has done a good job over the years, always able to accurately find out information.
"They've managed to gather the assistance of a rogue cultivator in the late-stage Nascent Soul realm, a demonic cultivator?"
"That Golden Rock Demon Rock Sect does have some skill. By the way, is this matter true? Have they found out the details of that rogue cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage of the demonic path?"
Ling Pengyun was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.
There are very few rogue cultivators at the late Nascent Soul stage within the Demonic Realm, and most of those who are are eccentric, only recognizing profit and not people.
Finding their help is extremely difficult.
"Father, don't worry. In order to confirm the information about that rogue cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, I even risked going to the demonic realm."
"And I also had a face-to-face conversation with a Nascent Soul demon cultivator from the Vajra Demon Rock Sect, whom our family has recently bribed with benefits."
"Moreover, I used a powerful bewitching technique to confuse him and confirm the authenticity of that Nascent Soul cultivator's demonic path."
"..."
"Beastmaster Ling Chengmie said with full confidence."
The rogue cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage summoned by the Vajra Demon Rock Sect is called "Blood Essence Old Demon," who is skilled at refining a unique Blood Essence Fiend.
Although those evil spirits are not particularly strong individually.
However, they possess special abilities; once activated, with enough blood, they can recover from their injuries in a short time.
Indirectly, these evil spirits possess an extremely long combat capability, often able to wear down enemies several minor realms stronger than themselves.
Moreover, the Blood Yuan Demon Lord committed numerous evil deeds, and by relying on countless righteous cultivators and mortals, he cultivated nearly ten Blood Yuan Fiends at the Nascent Soul stage.
Among them was a Blood Essence Fiend Ghost at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
If those evil spirits joined forces, they could easily overpower even a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
Its infamous reputation is extremely great.
"I never expected him to be such a troublesome devil."
"However, the evil spirits he refines are, after all, ghosts, while I possess the excellent pure yang techniques such as the Great Divine Power of the Pine Tree, Morning Glow, and Thunder Dragon."
"In this way, although it is somewhat difficult to deal with, it is not impossible to deal with."
"By the way, Cheng Mie, you did a good job this time. I will remember your merit. After all, if it weren't for you, my clan would have had a hard time finding out about that Blood Yuan Demon."
Ling Pengyun praised his third son, Ling Chengmie, with great satisfaction and even gave him some high-level cultivation pills as a reward to increase his enthusiasm.
In addition, although the Vajra Demon Rock Sect now has three late-stage Nascent Soul demon cultivators in charge, along with the Blood Origin Demon Elder, it is still under their command.
However, the Cangxuan lineage is not inferior after all, and its foundation in this aspect is even stronger, with four late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.
They are Ling Pengyun, Xinghai Laozu, Ling Pengxing, a sword-wielding ghost cultivator, and Yuan Laodao, a late-stage Nascent Soul sword cultivator from the Righteous Path Alliance.
Under such circumstances, the Cangxuan lineage actually still holds a considerable advantage.
Most importantly, both Ling Pengxing and Zhengyuan Laodao secretly entered the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and the outside world was temporarily unaware of their breakthroughs.
The benefits of this matter are immense, and the Cangxuan lineage could use it to their advantage.
"Father, you are indeed very generous."
Ling Chengmie's eyes lit up as he looked at the high-level cultivation resources.
Afterwards, the father and son chatted for a while, and then Ling Chengmie went to continue gathering information.
……
About half an hour later.
Ling Pengyun suddenly noticed that the fifth-tier communication treasure on his body was flickering and pulsating inexplicably. He channeled his spiritual power into it and saw the faces of Yaoxing Daojun and the other leaders of the righteous Dao Nascent Soul forces appear on the mirror.
"Fellow Daoists, the time has come, it's time for us to make our move."
"During this time, I hope that everyone can perform their duties and do their best to stop those demons and the demonic cultivators who have reached the Nascent Soul stage, as we have planned before."
"Furthermore, if we are outmatched, we hope you will seek our help in time. Our Radiant Star Immortal Sect will certainly provide assistance promptly."
Daoist Yaoxing kept his words brief, ending the message transmission once he finished speaking.
'This Heavenly River Realm is likely to be turbulent again.'
'I wonder who will win this next battle.'
Ling Pengyun stared at the communication treasure in his hand, deep in thought.
Afterwards, he gathered with the higher-ups of the Cangxuan lineage, had a brief discussion, and together addressed the fifty million righteous cultivators waiting outside the Scorching Sun Forest.
"Fellow practitioners, let us set off immediately for the Demonic Vajra Demon Rock Sect."
"Next, whoever makes any significant contributions will be richly rewarded by the Cangxuan lineage!" (End of Chapter)
