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

Song Yafei estimated that even if all the members of the anti-Cao alliance were killed, the number of Nascent Soul stage cultivators they killed combined would probably not be as many as Cao Meng killed alone.

It seems their anti-Cao alliance has lost again in this round!

"You scoundrel Cao, you killed the man! If the Xuantian Sect wants to cause trouble, they'll come after you first!"

"Anyway, with you drawing their attention, the Xuantian Sect will be too busy capturing you to capture us!"

Song Yafei retorted indignantly, "Xuantian Sect, hurry up and deal with this traitor Cao!"
Otherwise, with that traitor Cao constantly fighting amongst himself within the Hehuan Sect, she, as the peak master, would soon be unable to withstand it.

"Uncle-Master Song, the people who came to capture me have arrived. There are fifteen Void Refinement stage cultivators, but they are currently trapped inside the great formation!"

Cao Meng took the Inquiry Machine and sent a video of the Six Harmonies Locking Heaven Formation to the group.

“凸(艹皿艹)~”

The people in the group were shocked to see the Grand Formation Sect's Void Refinement stage elders fighting each other!
"I, the peak master, knew absolutely nothing about the hunt for the Void Refinement stage patriarch of the Xuan Tian Sect!"

Song Yafei felt as if she, as a peak master, had been kicked out of the ranks of the Hehuan Sect's high-level members.

She didn't even know about something so important. It's because the Void Refinement stage elders of the Joyful Union Sect don't trust her and think she might be a spy!
Why is it that Cao, who has been with the Hehuan Sect for less than four years, knows about this plan, while Song Yafei does not?
The Venerable Master of the Hehuan Sect at the Refinement Stage: Cao Meng is the bait, so naturally he needs to know the plan.

"Song Yafei, now that you know, is there anything you can do to help?"

Xue Tang, another peak master of the Hehuan Sect, made a sarcastic remark in the group chat.

To put it bluntly, the affairs of Void Refinement stage ancestors are no longer something that Nascent Soul stage cultivators like them can interfere with!
"Don't tell me you don't know, even I, the sect master of the Beast Soul Sect, don't know!"

Zi Xixue, a member of the Beast Soul Sect who had been watching the drama unfold in the group chat, couldn't help but speak up.

"And that old bastard Zi Dongji is my own brother, yet he didn't even tell me!"

"How could I, the sect leader of the Beast Soul Sect, be a spy for another sect?"

Zi Xixue decided that once she got back, she would take her big sword and go cut down Zi Dongji.

That old man doesn't even believe his own sister, he deserves to die!
"You must immediately cease hostilities and withdraw your troops. This time, the Xuantian Sect has suffered so many losses at the Nascent Soul stage, and now even those at the Void Refinement stage are trapped."

They will definitely deploy a large number of Void Refinement and Nascent Soul stage cultivators, and at that time, they will most likely take action against you and capture you as hostages!

The Void Refinement stage elders of the Joyful Union Sect and the Beast Soul Sect, seeing the Nascent Soul stage members arguing in the group chat, quickly stepped in to take charge.

As soon as the Void Refining stage elder spoke, the Nascent Soul stage cultivators quieted down and had no choice but to follow orders and begin the withdrawal.

……

Upon learning that their respective Void Refinement stage cultivators were trapped, the expressions of the Xuan Tian Sect, Xing Chen Pavilion, and Tian Yuan Valley members changed drastically.

While the Nascent Soul stage is worthless to sects like theirs, the Void Refinement stage is a different story!
The three parties quickly sent people to provide support, or requested assistance from nearby allies.

As time passed, casualties had occurred among the Void Refinement stage cultivators within the Six Harmonies Locking Heaven Formation, primarily among the three families of the Xuan Tian Sect.

If the casualties are to fall on the Hehuan Sect and the Beast Soul Sect, why would they bother setting up a large formation?
Decorations?

As time passed, four Void Refinement stage cultivators from the three families of Xuantian Sect had perished: two from Xingchen Pavilion, one from Tianyuan Valley, and one from Xuantian Sect.

Of these four cultivators at the Void Refinement stage, three were killed by Shishi and became her food.

"You damn fool, keep an eye on your pet!"

Shishi's consecutive devouring of three Void Refinement stage cultivators has displeased the Void Refinement stage elders of the Joyful Union Sect and the Beast Soul Sect.

You have to understand that there are fifteen people on the other side, which is not enough for the two families to share.

As a result, Shishi devoured three of them as soon as she arrived, leaving twelve. They will have even fewer left to share.

The two sects' Void Refinement stage elders were also frightened by Shishi's methods. They dared not criticize Shishi and could only put pressure on Nangong Yan.

However, Nangong Yan didn't dare to put pressure on Shishi, so she could only put pressure on Cao Meng, whom she could bully.

"Shishi, come back quickly, I'll take you to play!"

Seeing that the two Void Refinement stage elders were somewhat displeased, Cao Meng quickly waved and called Shishi back.

Shishi ate 20% by herself, leaving the remaining 80% for the 21 Void Refinement stage elders. No wonder they were happy!
"Oh!"

Faced with Cao Meng's summons, Shishi had no choice but to reluctantly leave the battlefield and return to Cao Meng's side.

Cao Meng was bored here while these Void Refinement stage elders were fighting fiercely, so he decided to do something big instead.

Cao Meng took out the map given to him by the Blood Cloud Ancestor. The Blood Cloud Ancestor gave Cao Meng two maps in total, one of the Cloud Floating Ghost Kingdom and the other of the place where a Xuan Tian Sect Integration Stage Ancestor was in seclusion.

What Cao Meng held in his hand was a map showing the location of the Xuan Tian Sect's Nascent Soul stage ancestor who was in seclusion. Cao Meng decided to take advantage of the free time and go dig up the other party's grave.

If we really dug them out and turned them into fierce corpses, it would be very interesting to use them to deal with the Xuantian Sect.

Without hesitation, Cao Meng greeted Nangong Yan and then ran off with his men, not bothering to cheer her on.

……

As time went by, more and more of the Void Refinement stage cultivators from the three families of the Xuantian Sect perished.

In the blink of an eye, eight Void Refinement stage cultivators from the three families have perished, leaving only seven survivors!
The morale of the three families of Xuantian Sect is somewhat low.

The Hehuan Sect and the Beast Soul Sect were also in a difficult situation, as the trapped beasts fighting to the death were indeed troublesome.

They even had to use a lot of strength to capture and kill those people.

The seven remaining Void Refinement stage cultivators from the Xuan Tian family within the Six Harmonies Locking Heaven Formation were in dire straits at this moment.

They wanted to know where the support had gone.
If they don't come soon, they're about to give up!
"Fellow Daoists, do not panic! The Myriad Beasts Sect is here to help!"

With a loud shout, several Void Refinement stage elders appeared and joined the battle.

The Myriad Beasts Sect and the Beast Soul Sect were mortal enemies, and they only made their move because the Profound Heaven Sect promised them a certain reward!

"You evil demons and heretics slaughter all living beings, but my Azure Sea Palace will uphold the righteous path!"

The Bihai Palace, a top-tier righteous sect that rarely makes appearances, also showed up today.

There was no way around it; other people were preparing for a reform era, and their Bihai Palace couldn't just stand by and play in the mud, could they?
The moment the Palace of Ten Thousand Beasts and the Palace of Azure Seas appeared, the Void Refinement stage elders of the Joyful Union Sect and the Beast Soul Sect couldn't help but frown.

They truly hadn't expected this battle to attract so many sects, and they certainly hadn't anticipated that reinforcements would arrive so quickly.

If they had been given more time, they could have annihilated all three families of the Xuantian Sect.

Now that reinforcements have arrived, the Joyful Union Sect and the Beast Soul Sect are considering whether to withdraw.
It is also said that they are waiting here for the support from both families to arrive!
"Are you righteous sects bullying us demonic sects because we have no one to rely on?"

"Five against two, isn't that just too unethical!"

The support from the Joyful Union Sect and the Beast Soul Sect has arrived, and the Demonic Sword Sect from the Demonic Path has appeared. Soon after, the Blood Demon Sect and the Soul Refining Sect will also make their appearance.

Now, the righteous and demonic paths are evenly matched, five against five, which can be considered fair.

Although the demonic faction has shown up, only the Demon Sword Sect has offered assistance.

The Blood Demon Sect and Soul Refining Sect's spirit swords did not immediately make a move; they were merely using this opportunity to intimidate their opponents.

The Blood Demon Sect and Soul Refining Sect were not reinforcements invited by the Joyful Union Sect and Beast Soul Sect. They haven't taken action yet because they haven't received payment. As soon as the Joyful Union Sect and Beast Soul Sect pay their dues, they will immediately take action.

"Fellow Daoists from the Soul Refining Sect and Blood Demon Sect, please lend a hand. At that time, my Joyful Union Sect will offer a secret sword-nurturing technique from the Longevity Sword Sect as a token of our gratitude!"

Everyone here is a shrewd cultivator who has cultivated for thousands of years. How could the Joyful Union Sect not know what the Blood Demon Sect and the Soul Refining Sect were thinking? They directly offered their rewards.

"Fellow Daoists of the Demon Sword Sect, your assistance will not be forgotten by the Joyful Union Sect!"

To prevent the Demon Sword Sect, which had already made its move, from turning against them, the Hehuan Sect quickly added another sentence.

With the Joyful Union Sect's statement, the Soul Refining Sect and the Blood Demon Sect also officially joined the battle.

The Joyful Union Sect has already revealed its hand, and the Blood Demon Sect and Soul Refining Sect aren't fools. The Joyful Union Sect and Beast Soul Sect's actions this time are all for the purpose of forging the Demon Sword.

Since the Hehuan Sect agreed to give them the method of forging the demonic sword, they naturally had to work harder to gather materials and practice sword-making.

Otherwise, if the Hehuan Sect gives them the method to forge the demonic sword later, and they don't have the materials, they'll be in an awkward situation.

It's impossible for the Blood Demon Sect and Soul Refining Sect to start another massacre, right?
It should be noted that the actions of the Joyful Union Sect and the Beast Soul Sect served as a wake-up call to the righteous sects, making it much more difficult for them to follow suit.

They must take this opportunity to gather as many sword-forging materials as possible.

With the Void Refinement stage cultivators of both the righteous and demonic paths beginning their battle, this should be the largest war between the two paths in recent millennia.

This battle involved ten top sects from both the righteous and demonic paths, with over sixty Void Refinement stage elders participating—enough to be recorded in the history of the Eastern Region Dao Continent.

Ten major sects have now joined the battle, while four top sects have not yet participated: Wenjian Sect, Pojun Mansion, Youming Palace, and Shiyin Sect!

The Sword Inquiry Sect also received a request for help from the Profound Heaven Sect, but they weren't stupid.

Their family's most valuable asset, the Azure Rain Divine Sword, is in Shi Shi's hands. Sending a Void Refinement stage cultivator to help the Xuan Tian Sect would be tantamount to sending them to their deaths.

Just as the ten major sects of the righteous and demonic paths were locked in fierce combat, three flying boats stopped here.

"Fellow Daoists, we from Po Jun Mansion are late!"

Wenren Shangzhen, the Void Refining stage patriarch of the Po Jun Mansion, greeted Xueyan Shangren and the others. Although they arrived late, they had made thorough preparations!

Wenren Shangzhen was overjoyed to see that the five righteous sects were all trapped by the Six Harmonies Locking Heaven Formation.

Originally, the Po Jun Mansion could only collect aid fees from the Xuan Tian Sect, Tian Yuan Valley, and Xing Chen Pavilion, but now with the addition of the Wan Shou Sect and Bi Hai Palace, they can collect two more fees.

"Fellow Daoists, I am about to break this Six Directions Locking Heaven Formation. Be careful, lest you be accidentally injured!"

Wenren Shangzhen quickly greeted Xueyan Shangren and the others, explaining that their Pojun Mansion had come to their rescue.

If we accidentally harm a customer, we won't be able to ask the five families of Xuantian Sect for benefits; we might even have to pay them some compensation.

As soon as Wenren Shangzhen called out, the Void Refinement stage cultivators from the righteous sects immediately became cautious.

Where are the valiant warriors of Po Jun?

With a loud shout, Wenren Shangzhen sent out six more Void Refinement stage elders from the flying boat, followed by seventy Nascent Soul stage cultivators, seven hundred Nascent Soul stage cultivators, and seven thousand Golden Core stage cultivators!
"Oh no! The Po Jun Mansion is about to deploy its military formation!"

When Nangong Yan saw that Po Jun Mansion had brought so many cannon fodder, she immediately understood what Wenren Shangzhen was up to.

Because of the special nature of the sect, the Po Jun Mansion's system is more like an army, and the Po Jun Mansion's most powerful military formation is...
"Array up!"

As the commander-in-chief, Wenren Shangzhen gave the order, and the other six Void Refinement stage elders, as deputy commanders, raised their military flags and waved them to direct the formation of the troops!

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

The entire army of Po Jun Mansion stood in formation, their fighting spirit soaring to the heavens!

This battle was commanded by seven Void Refinement stage elders, which was a significant advantage for those in the Nascent Soul and Golden Core stages.

To be able to fight alongside the Void Refinement stage elders is the greatest honor and glory of their lives!
"Seven Killings Formation, activate!"

Commander-in-Chief Wenren Shangzhen drew his sword, pointing it at the heavens and earth, while the other six Void Refinement stage elders raised their military formation flags to provide full support.

The fighting spirit and killing intent of the Po Jun Mansion cultivators soared to the sky, forming a great formation, the Seven Kill Army Formation manifesting in the heavens.

"Raise your spear!"

Wenren Shangzhen pointed his sword at the Six Harmonies Locking Heaven Formation. With a command, the power of the military formation condensed into thousands of long spears and charged towards the Six Harmonies Locking Heaven Formation, intending to break the formation by force!

Just as Wenren Shangzhen's attack was about to land on the Six Harmonies Locking Heaven Formation, a dragon shadow appeared out of thin air and tore the thousands of spears to shreds.

This unexpected attack made the atmosphere on the battlefield eerie.

Some people have already guessed who made the move based on this tactic.

Both Nangong Yan and Zi Dongji remembered this move; back then, this move was enough to defeat all the geniuses of their generation.

A burly man wielding a black dragon halberd suddenly appeared, his presence as if a demon god had descended upon the world.

War Demon - Lü Xiaobu!

Old Demon Lu looked at Wenren Shangzhen and the people from the Po Jun Mansion, and sneered:
"Originally, I didn't intend to take action, but since your Po Jun Mansion has made a move, how can I not do the same!"

Originally, Old Demon Lu just wanted to watch the show and had no intention of making a move.

When Lu Laomo betrayed Po Jun Mansion back then, he swore an oath that he would never live under the same sky as Po Jun Mansion!
Now that Po Jun Mansion has delivered itself to our doorstep, how can Old Demon Lü let them go?

"Little Yan Yan, given the grudge between Old Demon Lü and the Po Jun Mansion, I'm afraid everyone from the Po Jun Mansion will perish here today!"

"You reinforcements can't help you anymore!"

During the battle between Nangong Yan and Xueyan Shangren, she made a joking remark.

"Nangong the demoness, shut up!"

Master Xueyan angrily rebuked Nangong Yan, but she had no way to refute him.

Everyone knows about the feud between Lu Laomo and Po Jun Mansion, and everyone also knows that Lu Laomo has a cultivation level of half-step Integration Stage.

Now that Old Demon Lü has appeared, Xueyan Shangren couldn't help but mourn for the Po Jun Mansion, because in her heart, she didn't think highly of Wenren Shangzhen's Po Jun Mansion gang either.

Even if the seven Void Refinement stage experts of the Po Jun Mansion are strong enough to command the army, how could they possibly fight against a half-step Integration stage expert?
Not to mention that this is War Demon Lu Laomo, not an ordinary half-step Fusion Stage cultivator!

When Wenren Shangzhen saw Lu Laomo, he was also shocked. He really didn't expect to encounter this old devil!
Shouldn't this old devil be trying to break through to the Fusion Stage?

How come you still have time to wander around outside!
"Old Demon Lu, do you really think I'm also an enemy of the Po Jun Mansion?"

Although Wenren Shangzhen was intimidated, she hid it very well.

They dared not fight Old Demon Lü anymore, and tried to intimidate him for the sake of the entire sect!

"Wenren, you old thief, the day I advance to the Integration Stage will be the day I destroy your Po Jun Mansion!"

Old Demon Lu didn't take Po Jun Mansion seriously at all, because he and Po Jun Mansion were sworn enemies, and now Po Jun Mansion was already on its last legs.

"You insolent scoundrel Lu!"

Wenren Shangzhen understood from Lu Laomo's words that the other party had no intention of letting them go today; their only option was to fight to the death! (End of Chapter)
