Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Outside Tianjian Sect.

Although there was no large army surrounding the mountain, only a few figures were surrounding the mountain gate, but the oppressive aura emanating from them was even stronger.

Although the great formation was only flickering and had not been completely broken, all the disciples inside the sect held their swords and stood ready for battle.

Although the sect's authority was barely maintained under command, fear flickered in the eyes of every disciple.

Some people didn't even have the will to look up at the figures blocked by the great formation; they simply mingled in the crowd, silently bowing their heads and controlling their trembling bodies.

If the sect were not completely closed off now, no one could pass through once the great formation was activated.

If anyone makes any unusual moves, the peacock flapping its wings in the sky will immediately extract the demonic seed from their body and kill them on the spot.

Perhaps by this time, the sect was already in an uproar, with disciples fleeing en masse.

"Hahahaha! Look at the Heavenly Sword Sect's blustering but cowardly appearance!"

"If we exert our strength just a little more, this great formation will be broken in the blink of an eye, but they are still holding on like this, as if they can defy us!"

Blood Eagle Fortress Elder Tu Sheng sneered, his words full of sarcasm.

"With so many outstanding talents, if we were to extract all their essence and blood, we could create another sea of ​​blood. I can't wait to let Tian Jianzi and the others witness that scene!"

The eyes of Long Youming, the Grand Elder of the Netherworld Sect, flashed with bloodlust as he spoke with great anticipation.

"Fellow Daoist Long, you are mistaken. It would be too wasteful to let you refine so many cultivators into Blood Seas!"

"Wouldn't it be better to slaughter them all and use them to cultivate corpse puppets? With such a good place, if it were set up as a corpse pit, it could produce corpses almost endlessly. Wouldn't that be better than this one-off deal of yours!"

Another person, almost indistinguishable from a zombie, spoke.

The Grand Elder of Xuan Yin Cave, Qian Yinzhuo, had a different opinion, and his hoarse, dry voice was now tinged with excitement.

For these demonic sect members, all talk of camaraderie is just empty words. If there were any benefits to be had, they would probably be the first to attack those fellow disciples!
They came here together not only for revenge, but also to make up for the loss of a Nascent Soul Elder from the Heavenly Sword Sect!
However, these remarks caused the other righteous Nascent Soul cultivators to frown repeatedly.

Although they came here for revenge and to try to gain some benefits, their purpose was not much different from that of the demonic path.

However, they do not practice those crooked and evil methods, and ultimately they are somewhat displeased with such methods of gaining benefits through mass slaughter.

And it was also a form of revenge.

The demonic path can benefit from the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect, but the demons don't have the same methods, so they inevitably feel taken advantage of.

At this moment, he had little mind to stop those demons; he was only thinking about how to gain more benefits and limit the rise of these demonic sects.

Elder Lei Huoshan scoffed at the unbridled discussion about the demonic path.

"Hmph! Unorthodox methods..."

"Although the Heavenly Sword Sect colluded with cultivators from beyond the realm to massacre our sects, they should not indiscriminately slaughter us... We should only punish the ringleaders and not let these lower-ranking disciples suffer!"

Another female cultivator spoke calmly.

Its aura was icy, carrying a hint of otherworldly detachment.

She was not one of the cultivators who participated in the exploration of the giant ancient tree, but rather a Nascent Soul elder from a force called Xuanbing Palace.

They rarely interact with the outside world, and only have a close relationship with Chaosheng Pavilion, which is almost an affiliated force of them.

Chaosheng Pavilion only had one Nascent Soul cultivator, who had already died in the battle against the giant ancient tree. Xuanbing Palace stood up for Chaosheng Pavilion.

Naturally, they wouldn't tolerate these few Nascent Soul cultivators. The demons, having been refuted one after another, immediately revealed malice in their eyes, but when they looked back, they were speechless, wanting to retort.

Without him.

Both Leihuo Mountain and Xuanbing Palace are guarded by late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, and they are currently located here!
The demons immediately calmed down, but the others were in no hurry to act. They simply watched as the Heavenly Sword Sect slowly destroyed its mountain gate formation, waiting for the right moment.

There were also three people who never participated in the debate between the righteous and the demonic factions.

They sat alone on a cloud, the three of them facing each other, sipping tea and discussing philosophy.

One of them was a middle-aged man wearing a yin-yang Taoist robe, who was the Great Elder of Leihuo Mountain, Yang Lei Zhenjun.

One is extremely beautiful, with a breathtaking and dreamlike quality, yet she is like ancient ice, possessing a cold indifference that keeps people at a distance. She is the Xuanbing Fairy, the master of the Xuanbing Palace.

Another person appeared to be a child, seemingly innocent and cute, but upon closer inspection, his hands and feet were dry and withered, resembling those of an old man. He was the Hundred Gu Child of the Hundred Gu Sect.

Without exception, all three of them were late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators!

The spiritual energy conditions in this ancient tree realm are not only difficult to enter the path of cultivation, but also present considerable obstacles to reaching advanced levels of spiritual attainment.

Especially before Li Ye planted trees to transform the Demon Abyss, the cultivation world only occupied perhaps less than a quarter of the entire region.

It's only slightly larger than southern Xinjiang at most!
It's already quite an achievement to produce three late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators!
Among them, the Hundred Poison Child is relatively special, as he did not cultivate to that level through his own power.

In a sense, they are the true pinnacle of existence in this world.

"Heh! These juniors are ultimately short-sighted, only able to see the interests of the Heavenly Sword Sect..."

"Little did people know, the truly valuable person in this incident was the one who came from another field!"

The Hundred Poisons Child chuckled, his voice aged, a stark contrast to his youthful face.

"That's right. This world is beyond saving. Even if that junior from the Heavenly Sword Sect cultivates the Spirit Purifying Willow and begins to alter the environment of the Demon Abyss, the spiritual energy that has already been eroded and damaged will not be restored..."

"Even if the impure energy within the spiritual energy is eliminated, we probably still won't have the opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul stage!"

True Monarch Yang Lei echoed, "But since those from outside the realm can come, we can naturally use their methods to leave!"

"That person is extremely crucial; we must capture him! And that enormous ancient tree also needs to be brought under our control as soon as possible!"

"Ice Fairy said calmly."

Nothing in this world is ever unique.

Just as the actions of the sect leader of the Yanshen Sect gave Wu Youzhu hope, allowing him to seek a path to ascension across realms.

Having endured the terrible spiritual energy of the ancient tree realm for many years, the three had long given up hope of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, but now they saw a path forward in Li Ye.

Otherwise, the deaths of mere disciples or even affiliated sect members would not be worth the three of them coming in person!

Instead of rushing to destroy the Heavenly Sword Sect's mountain gate and slaughter the entire sect in one fell swoop to avenge their grudges, they did not act rashly.

This was naturally the idea of ​​the three of them.

The claim that Tian Jianzi and the others witnessed the sect's destruction was merely something the others said for their own amusement.

The real purpose is to use this news to lure those who are colluding with the Heavenly Sword Sect so that we can join forces to capture them!
Otherwise, if the mountain gate were destroyed, Tian Jianzi and the others would have no reason to return. Once they were separated, it would be even more difficult to find and resolve the situation.

Using the Heavenly Sword Sect as bait for an ambush is undoubtedly the most convenient move! (End of Chapter)
