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

"Young warriors of the Po Jun army, follow me to slay this demon and restore peace and order to the Eastern Dao Continent!"

"Military Spirit, Seven Killings Star Lord, manifest!"

After Wenren Shangzhen shouted to boost morale, he mobilized the power of the army formation, and the army spirit manifested as an ancient fierce god wielding a divine weapon.

"Seven Killings Fierce God Break!"

The Seven Killings Star Lord, formed from the spirit of the army, raised his greatsword and slashed at Old Demon Lü.

Wenren Shangzhen used his killing move right away, but there was nothing they could do, as their opponent was none other than the Old Demon Lu!
For Wenren Shangzhen, killing Lu Laomo would eliminate a major threat to the Po Jun Mansion.

Even if you can't kill the opponent, as long as you can severely injure them and prevent them from breaking through to a higher realm for a thousand years, it will still be a great achievement!
"You old scoundrel Wenren, take this halberd strike!"

With a loud shout, Lu Laomo's fighting spirit soared, and he brandished his battle halberd as he charged towards the illusory figure of the Seven Killing Star Lord.

"An insurmountable barrier!"

The halberd in Lu Laomo's hand gleamed coldly, and as he brought it down, the sky, stretching for 100,000 miles, was split in two.

The ten thousand miles of natural barrier shattered the Seven Killings Star Lord's attack, which landed on him and cleaved him in two.

The Seven Killings Star Lord is ultimately just a manifestation of the military formation and its spirit, not a true deity!
"puff!"

When the Seven Killings Star Lord was defeated, Wenren Shangzhen suffered a backlash and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Old Demon Lu, are you really going to start a full-scale war?"

In this round of confrontation, Wenren Shangzhen and his team have already lost.

If the military formation hadn't absorbed 99% of the force for them, he probably would have perished.

However, they still have a trump card, but they will have to pay a huge price for it.

"Wenren Old Dog, he doesn't even have the ability to hold off ten thousand men, yet he dares to preside over the Seven Kill Army Formation. It's laughable!"

Lu Laomo mercilessly mocked Wenren Shangzhen. He was also a disciple of the Po Jun Mansion in his early years, so he was naturally very familiar with the Seven Kill Army Formation.

When Wenren Shangzhen set up the Seven Kill Army Formation, Lu Laomo immediately saw that because of Wenren Shangzhen as the commander, the Seven Kill Army Formation was all bark and no bite!
"Wenren Old Dog, I'm giving you a chance. Show me what you've got!"

"Otherwise, when I send you on your way, you won't have a chance!"

Lu Laomo didn't take Wenren Shangzhen and his group seriously at all, because the outcome was already predetermined.

As members of the Po Jun Mansion, they only had one fate: to become victims of their own halberds!

Venerable Wenren glanced at the other six Void Refinement stage elders:
"Fellow Daoists, now that things have come to this, this is the only way!"

The other six Void Refinement stage cultivators from the Broken Army Mansion nodded helplessly, agreeing to use this move.

Because Old Demon Lu won't let them go; they can't escape!
"Young warriors of the Broken Army, are you willing to fight this demon to the death with me and rid the Eastern Dao Continent of this great scourge?"

Wenren Shangzhen knew that they couldn't escape today, so he was determined to fight to the death against Lu Laomo!

Even if it costs them their lives, they will drag Old Demon Lü down with them today.

"Fight to the death! Fight to the death! Fight to the death!"

The cultivators of Po Jun Mansion roared to the sky, knowing full well what a fight to the death meant!
Even those Void Refinement stage elders agreed to fight to the death, which shows how dangerous the situation was!

For those low-level cultivators, being able to go to the Yellow Springs together with a Void Refinement stage ancestor is an honor!
"Young warriors of the Po Jun sect, the Po Jun manor will never forget your contributions to the sect!"

"As long as we can kill Old Demon Lü, we will be the greatest contributor to the Po Jun Mansion in ten thousand years, and the Po Jun Mansion will bless our families for ten thousand years!"

Under Wenren Shangzhen's reassurance, the cultivators of Pojun Mansion were filled with fighting spirit and their momentum was unstoppable.

"Order to fight to the death!"

Wenren Shangzhen looked at the token in his hand. He had only carried it as a precaution, but he never expected that he would actually have to use it.

Wenren Shangzhen gave a wry smile, and then issued the Po Jun Death Battle Order!

The moment the Po Jun Death Order was unleashed, it released a blood-red divine light that enveloped everyone in the Po Jun Mansion.

All the cultivators of Po Jun Mansion had their essence, energy, and spirit overflowing and bound together with the Po Jun Mansion's death-defying order.

"The Po Jun Mansion has even resorted to their ultimate fighting techniques!"

The two venerable elders at the Refinement stage of both the righteous and demonic paths were startled to see Wenren Shangzhen unleash the Po Jun Death Battle Order.

They were all old monsters who had cultivated for over a thousand years, so they naturally knew the function of the Breaking Army Death Battle Order.

This thing is similar to burning one's lifespan, but it's more powerful and lasts longer!

"I wonder if Old Demon Lu can win?"

The Void Refinement stage elders on the demonic path side are a little worried about Old Demon Lü.

It wasn't that their demonic faction was particularly united, but rather that they were worried that Old Demon Lu wouldn't be able to withstand the Po Jun Mansion's desperate fighting techniques.

If Old Demon Lü can't withstand the Po Jun Mansion, the Po Jun Mansion will definitely take care of them as well.

"I don't know if Old Demon Lu can lose, but I do know that Old Dog Shang Zhen and his gang are doomed!"

Why did Nangong Yan dare to say such a thing?

This is because once the Po Jun Death Battle Order is issued, it cannot be stopped until the user's vital energy is completely drained.

In other words, Wenren Shangzhen and his party are doomed to die!

It is precisely for this reason that, if it weren't for the fact that Wenren Shangzhen and the other seven Void Refinement stage cultivators of the Po Jun Mansion were also reluctant to use the Po Jun Death Battle Order.

But their opponent is Old Demon Lü, who will absolutely not let them go.

Since it's a dead end anyway, why not choose to perish together?

Since they were going to die anyway, they wanted to take Old Demon Lü down with them.

They decided that if they had the strength left after killing Old Demon Lü, they would also kill the other demons as well!
"Little Yan Yan, the Po Jun Mansion lost seven Void Refinement stage cultivators, seventy Nascent Soul stage cultivators, seven hundred Nascent Soul stage cultivators, and seven thousand Golden Core stage cultivators this time. You righteous sects must bear a lot of responsibility, right?"

While Nangong Yan was fighting Xueyan Shangren, she didn't forget to gloat and mock him.

The Po Jun Mansion is about to suffer so many deaths; it can be said that it has been severely weakened and its foundation has been damaged.

The Po Jun Mansion came to save the five major righteous sects, and these five major righteous sects must bear some responsibility.

"Shut up!"

At this moment, all Master Xueyan could do was rebuke Nangong Yan and vent her anger.

If what is said is true, the top righteous sects must share in the losses suffered by Po Jun Mansion this time, otherwise it would not be fair!

"The righteousness of the fellow Daoists from the Po Jun Mansion is truly admirable!"

Some on the righteous side praised Wenren Shangzhen and his group, and were willing to risk their lives for them.

If Old Demon Lü were killed, it would greatly reduce the pressure on their righteous sects.

"What righteousness? If it weren't for Old Demon Lü's determination to not let them go, would they have used the Breaking Army Death Battle Order?"

The demonic faction immediately mocked, "Does the Po Jun Mansion even deserve praise?"
They were willing to gamble that if Old Demon Lü was willing to let Po Jun Mansion off the hook, Wenren Shangzhen and his group would definitely run faster than anyone else.

If it weren't for Old Demon Lü driving the people of Po Jun Mansion to the brink of despair, there would have been no need to use the Po Jun Death Battle Order!
"Old Demon Lu, do you need any help?"

The Void Refinement stage elders on the demonic side were a bit scared; Old Demon Lü couldn't withstand the Po Jun Mansion's Death Combat Technique.

If Old Demon Lü can't hold on, the Po Jun Mansion will definitely, if it has the resources, also eliminate those Void Refinement stage cultivators from the demonic path.

"A bunch of worthless rats, why would I need anyone's help? I can defeat a thousand of their troops in a single day!" Old Demon Lu refused the help of the other Void Refinement stage elders in the demonic path. It would be ridiculous to need help from others to deal with a bunch of rats.

"Seven Kills Destroy Gods!"

Wenren Shangzhen and the other seven Void Refinement stage elders joined forces to activate the Breaking Army Death Battle Order, once again condensing the phantom of the Seven Killing Star Lord!
With the entire army's will to fight to the death soaring to the heavens, the Seven Killing Star Lord that was condensed this time was a full thousand feet tall, with a murderous aura soaring to the sky, just like a real ancient ferocious god.

Even though Wenren Shangzhen used the Breaking Army Death Battle Order, Old Demon Lü still showed no fear.

"Brothers, lend me a hand!"

Old Demon Lu took out a precious banner and unleashed it, and countless souls floated out. These souls were clad in armor and exuded a murderous aura.

Judging from their attire, these ghost soldiers somewhat resembled the disciples of the Po Jun Mansion from a thousand years ago.

"We are willing to obey the general's orders!"

These ghostly soldiers collectively knelt and saluted Lu Laomo on one knee. In life, they were all soldiers under Lu Laomo's command. Now that they were dead, they were Lu Laomo's ghostly soldiers!
Many people present knew about the feud between Lu Laomo and Po Junfu.

The reason why Lu Laomo betrayed Po Jun Mansion back then was related to these ghost soldiers!
A thousand years ago, Old Demon Lü was the youngest Nascent Soul cultivator in the Po Jun Mansion!

At the behest of the higher-ups of the Po Jun Mansion, he led 30,000 Po Jun Mansion disciples as bait to lure the demonic sects!
In the end, the demonic sects took the bait and clung to Lu Laomo as their lure.

As agreed, as long as the demonic sects take the bait, the experts from the Broken Army Mansion will immediately come to their aid.

However, the military government delayed providing support in order to lure in more big fish and expand the results of the battle.

With the Po Jun Mansion failing to provide immediate support, Lu Laomo led 30,000 cultivators in a desperate battle against the demonic sects.

In the end, the entire army vowed to fight to the death, remaining until the last man was left.

Just as Lu Laomo was on his last breath and was about to self-destruct in despair, reinforcements from the Po Jun Mansion finally arrived.

In that battle, Po Jun Mansion won a great victory, but of Lu Laomo's 30,000-strong army of cultivators, only he remained.

In that battle, the Po Jun Mansion gave Lu Laomo the greatest credit.

Little did the cultivators of the Broken Army Mansion know that during that battle, Old Demon Lü was nearly killed several times.

It was only because fellow cultivators sacrificed their lives to protect him that Old Demon Lü was able to survive until the end.

At that time, Lu Laomo would rather not have the credit and only wanted to revive his 30,000 comrades.

From then on, Lu Laomo was filled with immense regret, but he did not lash out and instead endured it.

After enduring for a long time, Lu Laomo learned that the person who ordered the delay in providing support to expand the victory was his adoptive father, the Third Lord of the Prefecture.

Old Demon Lu knew that his adoptive father was at the Nascent Soul stage, and that it would be too difficult for him to kill him head-on with his own cultivation level.

So he continued to endure until Lu Laomo cultivated to the half-step Nascent Soul stage, only then could he find an opportunity.

Taking advantage of his adoptive father's seclusion, he ambushed his opponent and killed him with a single halberd strike, thus avenging himself.

Later, the old demon Lü betrayed the Po Jun Mansion, using his adoptive father's corpse as a pledge of allegiance, and converted to the Netherworld Palace.

Later, Lu Laomo paid a considerable price to learn the art of soul summoning from the Corpse Yin Sect, and refined the Ten Thousand Soul Banner to summon the souls of the thirty thousand comrades who died in battle, turning them into Yin soldiers who retained their consciousness.

"Brothers, today we shall join together to slaughter these beasts of the Broken Army Mansion and avenge our grievances!"

"Fight, fight, fight!"

At Lu Laomo's command, 30,000 Yin soldiers responded with shouts and cheers.

The thirty thousand Yin soldiers each fled into the Dharma form of Old Demon Lü, transforming into three black dragons that coiled around and protected him.

Old Demon Lü raised his black dragon halberd high, and the world instantly lost its color.

"Ghosts and Gods - Thousand Army Demons!"

With a fierce swing of his halberd, terrifying power transformed into thousands of soldiers charging towards the Po Jun Mansion's army formation.

The Seven Killings Star Lord's killing move crumbled under the charge of thousands of soldiers.

Even the illusory image of the Seven Killings Star Lord was dispersed, and the formation of the Broken Army Mansion was broken.

Once the military formation is broken, Wenren Shangzhen and the other cultivators from the Po Jun Mansion will have to face this attack head-on.

The army was already struggling to break through the enemy lines, and the backlash from the immortality was already making them suffer, let alone enduring this attack.

The Po Jun Death Order was shattered, and the cultivators of the Po Jun Mansion were like dumplings being thrown into a pot, their life force cut off, falling one by one from mid-air.

The three airships were also torn apart and sunk by the terrifying force.

The Po Jun Mansion has been defeated; so many cultivators have perished!

"what!"

Nangong Yan suddenly exclaimed in surprise, then muttered to herself:

"Old Demon Lu actually didn't use his Black Dragon Giant Scale Armor and Black Dragon Mystic Cloud Crown!"

After Nangong Yan reminded them, everyone else noticed this!
"Old Demon Lu, he didn't use his full strength just now. If he had, he probably wouldn't be much different from a first-level Nascent Soul cultivator!"

Many cultivators at the Void Refinement stage know that Old Demon Lü possesses three divine weapons: the Black Dragon Halberd, the Black Dragon Giant Scale Armor, and the Black Dragon Mysterious Cloud Crown.

There are even rumors that Lu Laomo's three divine weapons were transformed from three black dragons.

Only when Old Demon Lü unleashes all three treasures at the same time will he be going all out.

When Lu Laomo killed everyone in Po Jun Mansion, he only used the Black Dragon Fangtian Halberd. His combat power was terrifying!

The righteous cultivators were terrified at this moment, fearing that the now free-spirited Old Demon Lü would attack them.

On the demonic side, they hoped that Old Demon Lü would come to their aid as soon as possible, because with his help, they could easily defeat him.

Unfortunately, they were all wrong; Old Demon Lü had his own ideas.

“Righteous cultivators, if you don’t want me to attack you, quickly contact your sects and tell them what’s going on here.”

"Have the Po Jun Mansion smash this place! Send people over immediately! I'll be waiting for them here!"

Lu Laomo was preparing to fish here, and these righteous cultivators were his bait. He wanted to hunt down the cultivators of Po Jun Mansion here.

Although the righteous Void Refinement stage elders disliked Lu Laomo's domineering ways, they did not want to fight him.

After all, if Old Demon Lu makes a move, they are certain to die.

Left with no other choice, these righteous cultivators could only follow Old Demon Lü's instructions, contact people, and report the news.

……

While the righteous and demonic factions were locked in fierce combat, Cao Meng and his group had already arrived at Dragon Cloud Valley by flying boat.

Dragon Cloud Valley is a first-rate force within the Broken Army Mansion, and according to the map, it is the place where the Xuan Tian Sect's Nascent Soul stage ancestor went into seclusion for life-and-death cultivation.

Who would have thought that the Xuan Tian Sect's Nascent Soul stage ancestor would choose the territory of a subordinate force of the Po Jun Mansion as his place of seclusion?

"Where did these cultivators come from? This is Dragon Cloud Valley, a first-rate affiliated force of the Broken Army Mansion!"

"Dragon Cloud Valley does not welcome you. Please leave!"

The cultivators of Dragon Cloud Valley, seeing the flying boat appear out of thin air, quickly began to drive it away!
Because the Hehuan Sect and the Beast Soul Sect were attacking the Xuantian Sect's affiliated forces everywhere, and even some non-Xuantian Sect affiliated forces began to declare martial law.

The same goes for Dragon Cloud Valley; there's no other way, it's always better to be cautious!
"How dare you, you audacious little Dragon Cloud Valley, collude with the Xuan Tian Sect! You deserve to die!"

Cao Meng accused Long Yun Valley of colluding with the Xuan Tian Sect, then unleashed a burst of True Solar Fire, burning the interrogating cultivators to ashes! (End of Chapter)
