Having been given a second chance at life, I choose to join the Demonic Sect!

Although Cao Meng knew that Nangong Yan was hiding in the shadows, he didn't expose her. After all, if he didn't reveal it, he wouldn't have to give her face.

If the other person likes to be the little mouse, then let them be the little mouse!
"You bastard, you knew I was here, yet you still dared to commit this crime against my will!"

Nangong Yan gave Cao Meng another hard slap on the back. This bastard knew that his grandmaster was supervising the construction, yet he still dared to act recklessly. He was incredibly audacious and deserved a beating!
After Nangong Yan punched Cao Meng twice, her hand felt a little numb.

At the same time, he also made up his mind that he would never hit the other party again.

Every time I beat this bastard, he never learns his lesson and only knows how to enjoy himself!
When I get back, I'll find someone to forge a sixth-tier spiritual weapon hammer, just to smash this damn thing.

"Grandmaster, you'd better hurry back into the void, otherwise if the people from the Xuantian Sect find out, they won't take the bait!"

Cao Meng knew very well that he was bait, and the fattest bait at that.

He was trying his best to act as bait, so Nangong Yan, the fisherman, had to stay hidden!
Otherwise, you'll scare the fish away, and they won't take the bait!
"You bastard, you do have some self-awareness, you even know you're bait!"

Nangong Yan retorted sarcastically, feeling that Cao Meng was going too far as bait.

Putting aside the fact that she is the grandmaster, what right does a mere fish bait have to command the fisherman?

"You bastard, go and attack the first-rate power, Qingtian Sect, right now!"

We'll have someone else deal with these second-rate forces later!

Nangong Yan felt that with the strength of Cao Meng's team, they wouldn't be afraid even if they encountered a Void Refinement stage ancestor!
Attacking a second-rate force here is a complete waste of time.

Therefore, she directly helped Cao Meng choose a first-class power, the Qing Tian Sect, as his target.

Of course, there are reasons for choosing the Azure Sky Sect as the target!
"Grandmaster, this is immoral!"

Cao Meng felt that Nangong Yan's behavior was too much. He had finally managed to kill all the powerful figures of the Ziyu Dynasty, and now someone else was taking over. It was truly despicable!
"You scoundrel, you think it's moral to have lewd affairs with Su Qinfeng? You think it's moral to seduce that sinner Shen Aoxue?"

Nangong Yan was furious. Everyone has the right to talk to her about morality, but this bastard has no right to.

I sent this bastard to attack a top-tier power so that he could gain more merit.

You should know that Han Sijing and her group are already attacking top-tier forces, while this bastard is still playing around here.

Even eliminating twenty second-rate forces wouldn't be as meritorious as eliminating one first-rate force.

"Grandmaster, please tell the others that I will handle the Flowing Cloud Dynasty. I will attack the Azure Sky Sect now, okay?"

Nangong Yan was about to explode, and Cao Meng could only try to calm her down.

As a junior, I am really tired. Not only do I have to serve my master, but I also have to appease my grandmaster.

Whose younger generation is as tired as I am?

Nangong Yan nodded, but she was still a little puzzled!

She had no idea where the Liuyun Dynasty had offended this evil star. This evil star had previously caused a calamity involving corpses in the Liuyun Dynasty, and now he wasn't letting others off the hook.

The Liuyun Dynasty is Liu Ruyan's ancestral home, so Cao Meng naturally wants to destroy it himself. It would be so pointless to let someone else destroy the Liuyun Dynasty!

As for attacking the Azure Sky Sect, Cao Meng thought it was a very feasible idea. If he destroyed the Azure Sky Sect, the Profound Sky Sect would probably not fare any better!

……

The Azure Sky Sect is a first-class subordinate force of the Profound Sky Sect, but the Azure Sky Sect is different from other first-class subordinate forces of the Profound Sky Sect.

The Xuantian Sect has many first-class subordinate forces. Although these subordinate forces pay tribute to the Xuantian Sect every year, the sect, as its master, still suppresses them indirectly.

After all, the Xuantian Sect raises dogs, and they naturally cannot allow the dogs to have the opportunity to become hungry wolves that threaten their masters.

However, the Xuantian Sect never suppressed the Qingtian Sect, and even helped the Qingtian Sect on many occasions.

Several times in history, the Qingtian Sect almost fell out of the ranks of first-class forces, but it was the Xuantian Sect that helped them cultivate Nascent Soul cultivators, thus preserving their status as a first-class force.

Moreover, although the Azure Sky Sect is a first-class force under the Profound Sky Sect, the territory it occupies is several times larger than that of other first-class forces, which is tacitly approved by the Profound Sky Sect.

The Xuantian Sect took such good care of the Qingtian Sect, and the Qingtian Sect did not let the Xuantian Sect down. The amount of tribute they paid each year far exceeded that of other sects.

In fact, the amount of tribute that Xuantian Sect demanded from Qingtian Sect was the lowest among all the affiliated forces; it was just that Qingtian Sect voluntarily increased the tribute.

The main reason why the Xuantian Sect and the Qingtian Sect have such a good relationship is that the founding ancestor of the Qingtian Sect was the son of a certain generation of the Xuantian Sect's sect-protecting ancestor.

In subsequent campaigns against demonic sects by the Xuantian Sect, the Qingtian Sect was always willing to serve as its vanguard.

As the saying goes, "Give a plum in return for a peach."

As a loyal supporter of the Xuantian Sect, the Qingtian Sect naturally receives special care from the Xuantian Sect.

……

The Azure Sky Sect received a message from the Profound Sky Sect that a top-tier demonic sect was causing trouble, and they were ordered to defend their sect and await reinforcements.

The Xuan Tian Sect's higher-ups were well aware that this time it was a top-tier demonic sect that had made the move. If they ordered the Qing Tian Sect to go and support the other forces first, they would be sent to their doom.

Moreover, Qingtian Sect is the biological son of Xuantian Sect, and other forces are merely adopted sons who are willing to submit to Xuantian Sect because of its strength.

Under these circumstances, the Xuantian Sect's higher-ups naturally chose to preserve their strength by relying on the Qingtian Sect, their own protégé.

We can't just send our own son to his death on the battlefield for the sake of those adopted sons and grandsons!
At the foot of Qingtian Sect Mountain...

"The Azure Sky Sect truly lives up to its reputation as the Profound Sky Sect's favored son, with a whole bunch of fifth-tier formations and fifth-tier crossbows!"

After Cao Meng and his group arrived at the foot of Qingtian Sect Mountain, he saw that many fifth-order formations had been activated on the outer perimeter of Qingtian Sect, and fifth-order crossbows had been set up.

The Azure Sky Sect has entered a state of full martial law, and he couldn't help but sigh.

You should know that a first-rate power is lucky if it has a few fifth-tier arrays and crossbows, let alone a whole bunch!
"Who goes there? And why have you come?"

The Qingtian Sect disciples patrolling the foot of the mountain noticed which option Cao Mengyi had chosen and asked him through the defensive formation.

Although Cao Meng was famous in the Eastern Region Dao Continent, not everyone knew him, so the patrolling disciple did not recognize him.

"Instead of wasting time asking these pointless questions, you might as well give your last words!"

Cao Meng sneered. Although he was a good person, his time was precious.

He was a little unhappy that the Qingtian Sect disciples were wasting time on patrol!

However, the thought of the expressions on the faces of the Xuantian Sect's higher-ups when they learned that he had destroyed the Xuantian Sect's own son, the Qingtian Sect, filled him with immense excitement.

"He is Cao Meng, Cao Meng of the Hehuan Sect, the Cao Meng who once killed a second-level Nascent Soul cultivator from the upper sect!"

Elder Zhang, who was in charge of guarding this place, recognized Cao Meng's identity. Just thinking about the rumors about Cao Meng outside made his scalp tingle!

Including the people around Cao Meng, whose cultivation levels he couldn't discern, he quickly instructed one of his disciples:

"Go quickly and report to the sect leader that Cao Meng of the Hehuan Sect has appeared with three of his three protectors. This disaster is very likely caused by the Hehuan Sect!"

Elder Zhang strongly suspected that the three women behind Cao Meng were his protectors.

Elder Zhang knew the importance of this matter, so he immediately arranged for his disciples to report it.

In fact, of the three women behind Cao Meng, only Shi Shi can be considered Cao Meng's protector; Hong Qi and Jin Ning'er don't really qualify.

After all, a true protector must be stronger than the person they need to protect, and Hong Qi and Jin Ning'er's strength clearly did not surpass Cao Meng's.

"You fiend of the Hehuan Sect, how dare you act so presumptuously in my Qingtian Sect! Leave at once!"

Elder Zhang sternly rebuked Cao Meng. Although he had heard of Cao Meng's strength, he was unsure of the strength of the three women behind Cao Meng.

Therefore, the intention was to scare Cao Meng away, thereby avoiding risks for the Qingtian Sect.

"Insolence? Heh heh heh!"

Cao Meng sneered, his eyes blazing with savagery: "Those without strength are called presumptuous, and I happen to have the strength to annihilate the Azure Sky Sect!"

Cao Meng stretched his muscles and bones, which were cracking and popping all over his body, as if an ancient demon god was awakening.

"Little demon, stop being so arrogant!"

"Look at the grand formation!"

Elder Zhang was initially wary of the strength of the three women behind Cao Meng, but Cao Meng's arrogance angered him.

Elder Zhang was only a Nascent Soul cultivator, and he knew that with his own strength, he was definitely no match for Cao Meng.

So he used the Jade Talisman Key to control the formation, and a fifth-order Divine Sword Demon-Slaying Formation came under his control. He mobilized the power of the formation and condensed a giant sword that was 555 feet long, which slashed at Cao Meng with the force of thunder.

Just as Shishi was about to make a move, Cao Meng stopped her, signaling her not to.

He hasn't really fought since Cao Meng's cultivation reached the sixth level of the Nascent Soul stage.

Last time he bullied Nie Xuan and Yuwen Jing, he didn't dare to get serious, afraid of killing them.

Having finally arrived at the Azure Sky Sect, Cao Meng might as well give it a try.

Seeing the 555-foot-long thunderous sword coming towards him, Cao Meng grabbed the sword with his bare hands.

"Smash it, young master!"

With a sudden burst of strength, Cao Meng shattered the giant sword with his bare hands, and the lightning dissipated in his grasp.

"Vulnerable!"

Cao Meng patted his shoulder, his eyes full of contempt!
"How is this possible? This is a fifth-order divine sword demon-slaying formation set up by the upper sect for our sect. It is comparable to the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage. How could Cao Meng possibly withstand it!"

"Even if Cao Meng is at the half-step Nascent Soul stage and his combat power is heaven-defying, he cannot possibly shatter a fifth-order grand formation attack of this level with his bare hands!"

Elder Zhang found it hard to accept this result. After all, everyone said that Cao Meng was a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator, and his most impressive achievement was defeating Yuan Tai, who was at the second level of Nascent Soul.

Now he has shattered an attack comparable to the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage with his bare hands. This is so different from the rumors!

Half-step Nascent Soul stage? This news is way too outdated!

Cao Meng was at the sixth level of the Nascent Soul stage. Although he had revealed his cultivation form several times in the Hehuan Sect, the sect's patriarch ordered everyone who knew about it to keep quiet.

Therefore, the fact that Cao Meng had reached the sixth level of the Nascent Soul stage had not yet spread to the outside world. In fact, the outside world's understanding of Cao Meng was still that he was at the half-step Nascent Soul stage.

Elder Zhang thought that Cao Meng's ability to withstand a fifth-order formation was already his limit, but little did he know that he was about to be surprised.

"Congeal!"

Cao Meng raised his right hand, and the true fire of the sun and the innate metal energy condensed into a long spear in his hand.

"Go to hell!"

Cao Meng hurled his flaming spear, which transformed into a golden rainbow and tore apart the fifth-tier divine sword demon-slaying formation with unparalleled force.

It then turned into a sea of ​​fire, burning Elder Zhang and the patrolling disciples behind him to ashes.

At the foot of Qingtian Sect's mountain, all the fifth-order formations resonated.

Now that Cao Meng has broken the Divine Sword Demon-Slaying Formation, all the other resonating fifth-order formations have been activated, locking onto the location of Cao Meng and his group.

At the same time, the fifth-tier crossbows also began to lock onto Cao Meng's location and began to load!
"Pink-furred fox, it's your turn to step up!"

Cao Meng pinched Hong Qi's cheek. Ever since Hong Qi took human form, he still didn't know how strong she really was!

"Cao Meng, you'd better watch out for me, this princess!"

Hongqi was very pleased with herself. Wasn't Cao Cao very powerful? He still had to rely on this princess.

After Hongqi finished speaking, she summoned the Heavenly Fox's Divine Bell.

"Celestial Fox Secret Technique, Divine Annihilation Technique!"

As Hong Qi formed a hand seal and summoned the Heavenly Fox Divine Bell, the treasure emitted a strange ringing sound.

The elders and disciples of the Azure Sky Sect were not stupid; they immediately took defensive measures and blocked their hearing.

However, the Heavenly Fox's Divine Bell ignored their defenses, and even their attempts to suppress their hearing were futile.

The eerie sound of the Heavenly Fox's Divine Bell still lingered in their minds, and a phantom of a Heavenly Fox materialized in their sea of ​​consciousness.

Accompanied by the incessant ringing of bells, the illusory celestial fox relentlessly devoured their souls.

The patrolling disciples were only at the Foundation Establishment stage, and their souls were devoured in an instant.

One by one they fell to the ground, the divine light in their pupils dissipated, their physical bodies were still alive, but their souls were gone, turning them into empty shells, that is, living dead!

In less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, even those Nascent Soul elders could not hold on any longer, and all their primordial spirits dissipated and they died!

From then on, the outer perimeter of the Qingtian Sect was completely breached by Hong Qi.

"Humph!"

Hong Qi put away the Heavenly Fox Divine Bell and snorted at Cao Meng with great pride.

Hongqi's gaze as she stared at Cao Meng seemed to say:

Cao traitor, you killed a Nascent Soul elder and a group of disciples on the outskirts of the Azure Sky Sect!
The invincible Princess Hongqi, with just a slight move, wiped out everyone on the periphery of the Qingtian Sect.

Has Cao Cao surrendered yet?

Praise the invincible Princess Hongqi! Praise her as much as you can, admire her as much as you can! This princess is worthy of it.

Just as Hongqi thought Cao Meng was about to praise her, Cao Meng pinched her cheek and said irritably:

"Pink-furred fox, do you expect me to praise you or compliment you?"

Having known Hong Qi for so long, Cao Meng naturally knew what kind of person this vixen was.

"Pink-furred fox, you're just relying on the power of your treasure. What are you so proud of? What are you showing off?"

Cao Meng knew very well that he couldn't praise Hong Qi. This vixen couldn't resist praise; if he did, she would fly away with lightning speed.

"You scoundrel Cao, what right do you have to speak ill of me, the princess?"

You also relied on your powerful protective treasures to evade the Heavenly Fox's attack, thus allowing you to ambush me and capture me!

While exposing Cao Meng's lies, Hong Qi reached out and pulled at Cao Meng, as if she was ready to fight the traitor Cao.

Hongqi felt that everyone had the right to speak about themselves, except for Cao Cao.

Before Hongqi and Cao Meng could even playfully fight for three rounds, Cao Meng had already subdued Hongqi.

"Pink-furred fox, do you really think that just because you've become a late-stage fifth-tier transformed demon beast, you can fight me!"

"I'll spare you today because of your behavior just now!"

Cao Meng tapped Hong Qi before releasing her.

"Xue Nai, seal off this place, don't let a single person escape!"

Cao Meng retrieved the Ten Thousand Souls Snow Banner, released the Snow Maidens, and ordered them to seal off the outer perimeter of the Azure Sky Sect.

After doing all this, Cao Meng led the three women towards the Qingtian Sect's main camp, preparing to spar with the Nascent Soul stage cultivators of the Qingtian Sect! (End of Chapter)
