Chapter 1579 Meeting
As soon as the Ruyi Lotus Disc landed on the jade plaza in front of the Ziyang Immortal Sect's mountain gate, a large group of Ziyang Immortal Sect cultivators rushed to greet it.
As soon as Liu Changxu and Xiao Yu stepped out of the Ruyi Lotus Disc, Wei Changqing, the Grand Elder of the Ziyang Immortal Sect, warmly greeted them and respectfully bowed to Liu Changxu:
"Changqing greets Immortal Lord Yunxiao. Congratulations on your advancement to the rank of Taiyi Golden Immortal."
"Elder Wei, you're too kind."
Liu Changxu raised his hand in a gesture of support, his gaze sweeping over the bowing Ziyang cultivators around him, and said with a smile:
"It is truly an honor to be invited by the Ancestor to visit your esteemed clan."
Wei Changqing's smile deepened, and he stepped aside to lead the way:
"Immortal Lord, you have had a long journey. The Ancestor has prepared some tea in the Purple Cloud Palace and specially instructed this junior to come and greet you. And who is this person beside you?"
Liu Changxu chuckled and pointed to Xiao Yu beside him, introducing her as follows:
"This fairy is Fellow Daoist Xiao Yu from the Ziwei Immortal Palace!"
Seeing this, Xiao Yu also stepped forward and greeted Wei Changqing, saying:
"Xiao Yu of Ziwei Immortal Palace greets Elder Wei."
"Changqing greets Fairy Xiao. The three seniors of the Immortal Palace are currently discussing matters with my ancestor in the Ziyang Hall!"
Wei Changqing said with a smile:
He then looked at Liu Changxu again, made a "please" gesture, and said:
"Immortal Lord, Fairy Xiao invites you!"
Accompanied by Wei Changqing, Xiao Yu, and others, Liu Changxu took to the air and flew towards the Ziyang Palace deep in the clouds.
The Ziyang Palace is located atop a towering spiritual mountain deep within the Ziyang Immortal Sect. The entire palace is constructed with walls of gold and jade and tiles of colorful jade, radiating a seven-colored glow under the sunlight, resembling a jade palace inlaid in the sea of clouds.
Led by Wei Changqing, Liu Changxu and Xiao Yu stepped into the magnificent hall.
Upon entering the main hall, Liu Changxu looked up and saw an old man with white hair and beard sitting in the center of the hall. His face was thin but his eyes were sharp, and his aura was as calm as an ancient mountain. He must be the Ziyang Ancestor of the Ziyang Immortal Sect.
On each of the three jade chairs flanking the Purple Sun Ancestor sat a stunningly beautiful fairy dressed in purple fairy robes.
They possessed unparalleled beauty and an elegant demeanor, their brows exuding the aloof and authoritative air of someone long accustomed to high positions. Even with faint smiles on their faces, a terrifying pressure emanated from them, like an invisible chasm blocking their path. That awe-inspiring power, originating from the very source of the Great Dao, inspired reverence in all who beheld it, preventing any thought of disrespect or desecration.
In the center of the main hall, dozens of Mahayana stage experts sat cross-legged, their expressions solemn. When they saw Liu Changxu and his group enter and sensed the powerful aura emanating from Liu Changxu, they all cast admiring glances at them.
Upon entering the main hall, Xiao Yu saw three female Taiyi Golden Immortals seated in the main seats. He quickly stepped forward, bowed, and greeted them:
"Disciple Xiao Yu greets Master and two senior aunts!"
The stunningly beautiful female cultivator seated to the left of the Purple Sun Ancestor immediately smiled warmly upon seeing Xiao Yu and said:
"Yu'er, you sent a message saying you encountered an ambush by remnants of the Blood God Cult. What exactly happened?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu quickly replied:
"While investigating the Blood God Sect's whereabouts, I was ambushed by three Great Ascension Realm experts from the Blood God Sect. Fortunately, Senior Liu helped me escape with my life. The three Great Ascension Realm experts who ambushed and attacked me were also killed by Senior Liu." After hearing the disciple's brief explanation, the beautiful female cultivator immediately stood up and thanked Liu Changxu.
"I am Luo Ziyan from the Ziwei Immortal Palace. Thank you, Immortal Lord Yunxiao, for saving my disciple's life!"
At the same time, the other three Taiyi Golden Immortal experts, as well as everyone else in the hall, also stood up and exchanged greetings with Liu Changxu.
Through Luo Ziyan's introduction, Liu Changxu also got to know Ancestor Ziyang Zhou Wentong, Immortal Lord Ziyue Zhou Ziyue, and Immortal Lord Zilian Jiang Zilian.
After a warm greeting, Liu Changxu sat down on the jade chair next to Zhou Ziyue, the Purple Moon Immortal.
After everyone was seated, Luo Ziyan introduced the matters to be discussed at the meeting to Liu Changxu.
It turns out that the reason why the Blood God Cult was carrying out massacres and blood sacrifices everywhere, causing the wrath of heaven and the resentment of the people, was because it received strong support from evil sects such as the Blood Demon God Sect of the Northern Underworld Immortal Realm.
According to the information obtained by the Ziwei Immortal Palace, the reason why the Blood Demon God Sect did this was to obtain a large number of high-quality blood crystals by supporting the Blood God Sect's massacre and blood sacrifice.
This blood crystal is formed from human essence and blood, and is a higher-level immortal object than blood essence. It can help Taiyi Golden Immortals and above to quickly improve their cultivation.
After listening to Luo Ziyan's introduction, Liu Changxu fell into deep thought.
The Blood Demon God Sect's support for the Blood God Cult, allowing it to massacre cities and use the blood of living beings to condense blood crystals, was not a spur-of-the-moment decision; it must have been driven by immense ambition and meticulous planning.
If it were merely to meet the sect's normal needs, it could have been done discreetly on a small scale; there was no need to be so reckless!
The fact that the Blood God Sect was willing to be used as a pawn by the Blood Demon God Sect, and was willing to bear eternal infamy, and carried out such a cruel and bloody massacre and blood sacrifice, could not possibly be simply to please the Blood Demon God Sect. They must have had their own hidden purposes with great ambitions.
After careful consideration, Liu Changxu concluded that the only reason these two major sects would risk such a massive massacre and blood sacrifice was probably to help their Taiyi Golden Immortal experts break through to the Daluo Golden Immortal realm.
The fact that Ziwei Immortal Palace was willing to send three Taiyi Golden Immortal experts to help Ziyang Immortal Sect wipe out the remnants of the Blood God Sect within its territory is probably also to prevent the Taiyi Golden Immortal experts of the Blood God Sect and Blood Demon Sect from breaking through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
Thinking of this, Liu Changxu couldn't help but feel deeply worried about the future situation. However, he also knew that this was something he couldn't stop at all.
After briefly introducing the current situation, Luo Ziyan began to arrange the next battle plan without consulting Liu Changxu, clearly indicating that they had already discussed it beforehand.
However, Luo Ziyan did not assign Liu Changxu any tasks, but only hoped that Liu Changxu could act with them to deal with the Taiyi Golden Immortal powerhouse of the Blood God Sect.
Liu Changxu did not show any dissatisfaction with this, after all, he came alone this time and had no one who needed his protection, so how the battle was arranged and deployed was not of much concern to him.
After the meeting, the cultivators in the main hall dispersed, and soon only Liu Changxu and four others remained.
At Luo Ziyan's request, the five of them held a short meeting in the main hall.
This meeting was very simple; it was to discuss how to fight the Taiyi Golden Immortal powerhouse of the Blood God Cult.
To Liu Changxu's surprise, the host, Ancestor Ziyang Zhou Wentong, was rather indifferent to participating in the final battle. According to him, his injuries had not yet healed, and even if he participated, his combat power would be extremely limited. This greatly displeased Luo Ziyan and the other two, ultimately leading to the meeting ending on a sour note.
