Immortal Road.

"Simple, it's about competing with the Blood Demon Formation for food!"

The avatar of Nirvana spoke gently, but his words carried an icy chill, sending shivers down the spines of everyone in the tent.

"As long as we equip the army with the necessary magical artifacts and refine a large number of soul banners and blood banners, we can collect them immediately after they are killed, regardless of whether they are enemy or ally, thus preventing the Blood Demon Transformation Formation from transforming into blood corpses. This formation will break without us even having to attack it!"

In short, even if someone dies, their body won't be given to you; we'll refine our own people into the banner.

Without nourishment, wouldn't the Divine Transformation Blood Demon Array become an empty shell? This is a strategy to cut off the fuel supply. No matter how powerful the domain array is, it's like a skilled cook trying to cook without rice.

Unexpectedly, they were met with opposition the next moment.

"No! The Blood Soul Banner is a forbidden artifact in the cultivation world, a thing that is utterly horrific and strictly prohibited by our Vast Holy Land!"

"The Shangxiao Sword Sect will never use any dirty, demonic methods. Fellow Daoist, please do not mention this again in the future!"

“Fellow Daoist Jimie, you are putting us in a position of inhumanity and injustice.”

"If we use such heretical and evil methods, how will the cultivation world of future generations judge us? Our reputation will be ruined both before and after our death."

Got it!
The Immortal Envoy camp has many righteous holy lands, and many people were outraged when they heard this, claiming that the plan was vicious and that they would not even spare their own people, making it difficult to adopt.

The annihilation clone smiled amidst the bustling crowd, said nothing more, simply bowed slightly, and sat back down.

Even the God of Simplicity, one of the three, sighed deeply:

"Alas, to personally refine one's own brothers and fellow disciples into the Blood Banner and Soul Banner—such cruel torture, denying them reincarnation and even the chance to be reborn, is too merciless."

This is easier said than done.

Many people would rather watch their teachers and friends be assimilated by the Blood Demon Array than be the villain themselves. For example, if Lin Shan were to use the Blood Soul Banner to refine Mu Yan, Master Zhan Kong, and others from the Xun Gu Sect into nourishment, the consequence would be that they would not be able to enter the cycle of reincarnation in this lifetime.

After all, he had followed them for hundreds of years; even he himself couldn't bring himself to do it!

The method has been proposed; it remains to be seen whether the Immortal Envoy faction will adopt it.

This crooked and unorthodox approach was discussed for a long time, and everyone found it difficult to make up their minds. With worried expressions, they began to think about whether there were any other ways.

But after much discussion, they found no better alternative.

To deal with such a powerful array, the only way is to use unorthodox methods to fight against unorthodox methods; otherwise, don't even think about breaking in and annihilating the Black Lotus Sect!
"This matter requires careful consideration. Everyone should go back and brainstorm together. If you have any ideas, please let me know as soon as possible."

As the meeting adjourned, the three clones of Annihilation left the main tent.

Venerable Yushe sneered and transmitted his voice to the two members of his team:
"The Holy Lord Haoran is a hypocrite. He was clearly tempted and knew this was one of the few options, but he refused to bear the consequences and became the villain who made the final decision!"

Lord Shouzhuo was always frowning and looked miserable, and I could empathize with him deeply.

"Even I wouldn't dare. The karmic consequences are too great. That's why it's not easy to be a leader of a faction. I heard that the Holy Maiden of the Black Lotus Cult on the other side has also been replaced."

The Annihilation Avatar laughed and strode away, leaving the two behind.

"Don't worry, if they can't make a decision, someone will force them to!"

In a gray, hazy space.

A tall figure sat on the ground, staring intently at the small human in front of it, who was trying to train its subordinates.

"This is the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation, a formation that your godfather specifically requested be taught to you. You've probably mastered it by now. See if there's anything you still don't understand?"

Qian Bu was exhausted. Deploying the evil soldiers and generals to achieve the desired effect was no easy task.

Whether the Demon Emperor in front of him has learned it or not is related to whether he can see the light of day again soon, so he has been doing his best these days.

Suddenly, a sound seemed to come from beyond the sky.

"what!!!"

"Where is this?"

"Where is the Holy Lord Haoran? He will come to save us! Everyone, hold on and don't give up!"

"It must be the grotto-heaven treasure of the Ancient Seeking Cult Master. With so many of us powerful cultivators working together, we managed to create a huge hole in it."

All that could be heard was a deafening rumble, as if someone was shouting wildly or cheering each other on.

Curious, Qianbu got up and went up to look.

The result startled everyone who came!
Upon discovering that he was an ordinary but powerful cultivator, they immediately surrounded him, and among them was a Nascent Soul stage cultivator!

"What???"

Qianbu broke out in a cold sweat.

Isn't this a fragment of my godfather's small world? How come someone suddenly appeared? I think I just heard something about the Great Lord of Vastness. What's going on here?

The Nascent Soul stage cultivator among the six questioned them with a cold, stern gaze:
"Who are you? We don't think we have anyone like you in our ranks. Where did you come from?"

Our side?

Qian Bu's mind raced. Although he hadn't participated in the frontline battle, he had roughly guessed something from the few words he'd heard. So, after a slight hesitation, he said:

"I am a friend of the Holy Lord Haoran, and I have just joined the faction. Are you all like me?"

Upon hearing this, the six people subconsciously assumed that Qian Bu was also one of their own, having just been captured by the Xun Gu Sect Leader. This tactic of confusing the public was indeed effective!
The leading Nascent Soul cultivator had no time for interrogation; his immediate priority was to find a way to save himself, tacitly acknowledging that they were all in the same boat.

The group began to attack the celestial barrier frantically, but their efforts yielded no results.

After all, this is the domain of supreme divine power. A few great divine power practitioners who are only at the Nascent Soul stage are two major levels below them and simply cannot break through here.

"How strange! Even a celestial treasure can't withstand more than a few attacks from the inside out. Why is the barrier here so thick? Could it be some kind of fragment of a world?"

If it's a fragment of the world, then it would indeed be troublesome for a great supernatural being, but there's no reason why another Nascent Soul cultivator wouldn't be able to break through space!
"No, that's not right. Why can't I break through the void and escape from here?"

This person attempted to break through the void multiple times, but failed each time!
He immediately felt a sense of panic and tried to communicate with his original body, only to find that he had lost contact with it!
"What the hell is this place?"

The six of them tried everything they could, but they couldn't leave. As time kept passing and they didn't know how much time had passed in the outside world, they gradually began to despair when the Holy Lord of Haoran did not come to rescue them.

At this moment, unbeknownst to them, behind the swirling sea of ​​evil spirits all around them...

A pair of scarlet eyes silently appeared, surrounding the area without disturbing anyone, and they waited quietly.

It wasn't until they were exhausted and had no choice but to give up their escape and relax to rest that they realized something was wrong with their surroundings.

"what is this???"

In a state of panic, they hurriedly gathered together, looking around frantically, their vision blurring as their nerves malfunctioned.

The five powerful cultivators were already dizzy and weak, their limbs were sore and weak due to the assimilation of the domain, their spiritual sea was depleted, their true essence was blocked, and their divine consciousness was dissipating.

Only the Nascent Soul stage cultivator remained conscious, looking around in terror, especially at the tallest figure in front of him.

The Demon Emperor!

Even a peak Nascent Soul cultivator seemed like a mountain before him. "You...you are..."

"Ho ho."

The Demon Emperor remained silent, only breathing strange, rough sounds from his throat. He bent down and looked down at the visitors, spewing out a long, malevolent aura that smeared the faces of the six of them.

The other three Nascent Soul stage Demon Lords also slowly emerged, looking at them like prey waiting to be slaughtered.

Qian Bu was terrified when he saw such a scene for the first time. He quickly ran back to Sha Huang's side, fearing that he would be accidentally injured by friendly forces. However, Sha Huang did not make a move for a long time.

Instead, he parted the clouds and pointed to the evil soldiers and generals below.

"Ho ho."

"???"

Qianbu didn't understand at first, but then he realized what was going on.

Does this mean I have to lead troops to wipe them out?

"No, the other party is a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, I... I can't!"

He wanted to back down, but the Fiend Emperor didn't care. He sent tens of thousands of troops directly to Qian Bu and then pointed at the Nascent Soul stage cultivator.

Kill him!
Upon seeing this, the man suddenly burst into maniacal laughter, gesturing wildly as if he were insane.

"Hahahaha, alright, I get it! The Ancient Seeking Cult Leader has thrown me into a den of evil spirits, using these evil creatures as his tools, and you, kid, are being used as a pawn to kill! Am I right?"

Qianbu stepped forward tremblingly, and even though he was terrified, he could only grit his teeth and muster his courage to go forward.

"Senior, please don't blame me. I had no choice; I was forced into it."

"Don't be afraid! Come on, let's have a grand duel, just as these evil creatures wish. After all, it's just a Yuan Nian avatar, I can afford to die!"

This guy was determined to fight to the death, and started spouting threats incoherently.

Qianbu was extremely frustrated. "You are an incarnation, so you can afford to die. I am the real body. Dying will end everything!"
Fortunately, this army of tens of thousands had just mastered the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation, which could become a trump card in his hands. The evil soldiers and generals inside were greatly enhanced by the Yuan Sha Domain. The Yuan Shen stage cultivators on the other side had already been crippled outside before being thrown in. In addition, they had been worn down and weakened by the domain for so long, so they were not invincible.

This battle lasted a long time.

Most of the ruthless soldiers and generals were dead, and Qianbu was panting heavily.

This person was worn down to death by him using a combination of formations and sheer numbers, resulting in a scene of a powerful being defeating a Nascent Soul cultivator despite being of a higher level!
If this happened on the mainland, it would be something he could brag about for a lifetime.

Unfortunately, there was no one to talk to here, and he was the only one who breathed a sigh of relief.

After those evil soldiers and generals died, they disintegrated into a sky full of evil energy, and they could recover in a short time, even the next day. Anyway, there was no need to feel sorry for them being resurrected. From this point of view, they were more useful than the disciples of his Ghost Valley Holy Land.

At this moment, the Fiend Emperor led another Fiend Puppet at the Nascent Soul stage back over.

"Wait? He's not dead yet?"

Qian Bu's heart, which had just been at ease, jumped back into his throat!

Fortunately, this person had been refined by the evil energy and had become a part of the domain. He was very quiet and obedient and did not fight with Qian Bu.

The five powerful beings at the beginning were also assimilated by the domain and were transformed into evil puppets without Qian Bu having to take action.

This demonstrates the domineering nature of the Yuan Sha Domain!
"Where exactly did my godfather bring me? He said it was a fragment of the world, but even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator couldn't get out of it after breaking through the void."

Qian Bu was completely baffled, unable to figure out the relevant area of ​​supreme supernatural power.

half a month later.

News came from beyond the heavens that, under pressure, the Holy Lord of Vastness had reconvened everyone for a meeting.

It turned out that because they had been stagnant, the Pure Lotus Hermit was dissatisfied, so they had no choice but to adopt the suggestion made by the Nirvana Avatar.

We have expedited the procurement of a batch of Blood Soul Banners from the demonic cultivation world!

When the three thousand Blood Soul Banners were distributed to the elders and deacons at all levels, it immediately caused a sensation among the lower and middle levels. Many disciples discussed it and the atmosphere within the camp was tense.

The experience of the Blood Demon Array of the Nascent Soul stage is still fresh in my mind. This time, instead of finding a way to restrain the opponent, we found a way to restrain our own people.

Which shameless executive came up with this idiotic idea?

As it turns out, secrets don't stay hidden forever, and soon the name "Taoist of Nirvana" spread widely among the immortal envoys.

It has been met with condemnation from hundreds of thousands of people at the grassroots level!

Despite the public's scorn, Venerable Yushe sneered, Lord Shouzhuo sighed, and the Silent Avatar remained as steady as an old dog.

"Those lower-class people are just cannon fodder. Their thoughts are not important. In my opinion, someone deliberately spread rumors to divert attention from the conflict and make everyone focus on you. It's most likely that hypocrite, Lord Haoran!"

"Sigh, Brother Jiemie, you offered your advice for the sake of your faction, but you ended up taking the bullet for your leader. What's the point of that?"

"You two don't need to feel sorry for me. It's just a little bit of bad reputation, it's not important."

This is nothing! It doesn't care about such trivial karma. Anyway, this clone has some kind of backing, and all the karma it's involved in is related to the Great Cataclysm of the Epoch. What's a little bit more than this?

After thorough preparation and rehearsals, the Celestial Envoys' forces launched another all-out offensive!

This time is different from last time. With the Blood Soul Banner in hand, once someone falls, they will be taken away immediately, without giving the Nascent Soul Blood Demon Array a chance to transform.

Although the Black Lotus faction had heard some inside information and knew that they had taken countermeasures, they didn't take it to heart. Protector Feng took advantage of the time to smooth things over at each stage, visiting various places to communicate and act as a peacemaker, all in an effort to unite all allies as one. It was truly exhausting.

But once the war started, the power of the Three Thousand Blood Soul Banners was far more than we had initially thought!
The members of the Celestial Envoy camp were killed, and they collected them with the Blood Soul Banner.

The Black Lotus faction members were killed, and the opponents also used the Blood Soul Banner to take them away!

This shattered the Black Lotus leadership's initial belief that fallen members could be transformed into blood puppets to serve their purpose, giving each person two lives.

The unexpected surprise also invigorated Lord Haoran and the others.

With half of the Blood Demon Domain destroyed, they quickly gained the initiative on the battlefield and launched a rapid advance in all directions.

Little did they know that in this vast sea of ​​blood, the two groups from different factions were actually providing cover for each other.

"The Ancient Seeking Cult Leader? You... how did you get here? Oh no!"

"Master of Nirvana! What are you doing? Don't come any closer!"

Amidst the chaos of the battlefield, various colored lights drifted and dodged in the sky, and a group of people were engaged in fierce fighting, with life and death incidents occurring frequently.

The Black Lotus Cult members were injured by the combined attack of the Nirvana Avatar, Venerable Yu She, and Lord Shou Zhuo. Then, they inadvertently arrived at the location of Lin Shan Yuan Nian's incarnation and were secretly swept away by the Yuan Sha Domain.

The people in the Immortal Envoy camp also suffered a great misfortune. They were injured by the Burning Fire Venerable, the Yuming Divine Lord, and the Vast Ocean Demon Venerable, and were suppressed and sent to Lin Shanyuan Nian's incarnation, where they were openly and legitimately delivered his meals!

With profits coming from both ends, the number of evil puppets in the Yuan Sha Domain began to grow rapidly.

It's just a pity for the poor cloth-wearing soldiers inside! (End of Chapter)
