A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Wang Yu Transmigrates into a Book, the Dao Ancestor of Rein

Chapter 263: Well-prepared, establishing a formidable reputation! (8k words, two chapters combined)

He then looked at Bai Hao and his two companions, who were fighting against the other Core Formation stage cultivators from the three sects.

"If you surrender willingly, I can use the three of you to negotiate with your respective sects. But if you continue to resist, well, I won't hold back when I strike..."

The boy said in a cold voice.

Upon hearing this, Du Dong, Bai Hao, and the other two froze in their tracks.

After glancing at the five Core Formation cultivators from the three sects, and then at the Nascent Soul old monster from the Ancient Sword Sect, Bai Haozhi and the Core Formation cultivator from the Hundred Crafts Academy gave up their resistance in despair.

"you…!"

Du Dong, the young master of the Thousand Illusions Sect, was both shocked and frightened.

However, it is clear that with his own strength alone, let alone fighting against the Fire Dragon Child, he would not be able to suppress even the mid-to-late stage Core Formation experts from the three sects.

Soon, Du Dong was also taken down.

This time, the Fire Dragon Child personally implanted a killing sword thread into the bodies of all three:
"Seal him in the Dragon's Den and assign three people to guard him. This time, make sure he doesn't escape."

"Yes, uncle."

Before leaving, the boy took a deep look in the direction of the quiet room.

To be precise, he glanced at Meng Di twice.

"Pity."

He had considered that this rare Nine Spirits Sword Body would not receive good treatment and growth under Han Li's command, and that he would regret it sooner or later and consider switching to their Ancient Sword Sect.

But now it seems I was overthinking things.

This treatment is even better than that of a biological son.

Any Core Formation cultivator would be drooling with envy upon seeing this; only someone with a screw loose would consider betraying their sect.

"Fine, let's just consider it a small gain for the Falling Cloud Sect."

The boy left, hurrying to support his own men who were stationed abroad.

Meng Di had just given Sun Huo and Mu Peiling healing pills.

These two, instead of distancing themselves from him during the previous accident, thought of their camaraderie as fellow disciples and wanted to fight alongside him against the enemy; they're not bad people. Perhaps they can remain friends and keep in touch more often in the future.

Especially Sun Huo, who is only a few years older than him. Despite being born a rogue cultivator, he was able to enter the mid-Foundation Establishment stage at the age of twenty-seven or twenty-eight.

That's quite remarkable.

Just as Meng Di was pondering how to befriend Sun Huo, an elder surnamed Yu from the Luo Yun Sect, who had reached the Core Formation stage, came over and handed over a talisman and a storage bag.

"Senior, what is this?"

The boy asked in confusion.

The talisman is the still-usable incarnation talisman, similar to a talisman treasure, which can store a portion of the power of a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stage.

It has not been damaged and is therefore still usable.

The cultivators from the three factions knew this was a valuable item, but none of them dared to embezzle it.

As for storage bags?
It was the storage bag of the young master of the Thousand Illusions Sect.

The intention behind handing it over to Meng Di is self-evident.

The people from Baiqiao Academy took the elder's storage bag. How it will be disposed of afterward is up to the Nascent Soul stage expert of Baiqiao Academy to decide. The Ancient Sword Sect took Bai Haozhi's storage bag. The Falling Cloud Sect only needs Wei Tian.

The last young master of the Thousand Illusions Sect, Du Dong, became Han Li's spoils of war.

The four parties cooperated, each taking one person.

"Don't worry, young friend. This was given to you by Uncle Cheng to pass on to your master, Senior Han."

The old man expressed his heartfelt gratitude when that senior was mentioned.

Because even if their Luoyun Sect's patriarch hadn't intervened, and even if they had been wary of Senior Brother Wei Tian, ​​True Monarch Tian Sha might still have ruined him. Thinking of his friendship with Senior Brother Wei Tian, ​​and that outcome he so desperately wanted to avoid, he felt incredibly fortunate.

"By the way, young friend Meng, please convey my gratitude to Senior Han for his righteous assistance."

The old man's eyes were filled with tears and slightly red.

Thinking of how his senior brother Wei Tian, ​​who had taken good care of him and the disciples of the sect more than a hundred years ago, was able to break free from the prison of his mind and live a new life, he felt happy for his senior brother and felt that the sect had done its best.

You should know that Senior Brother Wei was the most promising candidate to reach the Nascent Soul stage among their batch.

Senior Brother Feng, whose chances are slim, is far inferior to him.

Not to mention that this time, True Monarch Tian Sha's attempt to steal a chicken backfired, indirectly benefiting Senior Brother Wei. Senior Brother only needs to digest this gain and recover his depleted essence and vital energy, then his chances of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage will greatly increase.

With the baptism of the nascent soul and the elimination of inner knots, overcoming the inner demons will not be a major problem.

Perhaps it won't be long before another Nascent Soul cultivator is born in their Luoyun Sect?

Senior brother is alright, that's great.

The sect is thriving, which is excellent.

After realizing that the storage bag and the talisman belonged to his mentor and were spoils of war, Meng Di immediately accepted them.

...

The situation at the stalactite cave of the Spirit Eye Tree is now clear.

However, neither the righteous nor the demonic factions outside the world are aware of what is happening here.

No fewer than six sects from both the righteous and demonic sides were involved in this incident.

The righteous path includes the Tai Zhen Sect, the Tian Ji Sect, and the Hao Ran Pavilion, while the demonic path includes the He Huan Sect, the Qian Huan Sect, and the Tian Sha Sect.

Among them, Haoran Pavilion used Bai Haozhi as a spy; Tianji Sect used an accomplice, namely the old man surnamed Xun from Baiqiao Academy. The Demonic Path Tiansha Sect used Wei Tian as a spy; and Qianhuan Sect specially arranged for its young sect leader, Du Dong, to provide support. If Wei Tian did not cooperate, Tiansha Zhenjun would appear in an avatar to assist him.

Also.

Beyond the tree hole lies an even more fascinating world.

Both the righteous and demonic factions also arranged for at least nine Nascent Soul cultivators to participate.

The three sects of Yunmeng also mobilized nine Nascent Soul cultivators who were openly present.

Ancient Sword Sect: Jin Wuhuan, Zhang surname cultivator, Fire Dragon Boy.

Luoyun Sect: Cheng Tiankun, Lü Luo, Hong Fu.

Baiqiao Academy: Daoist Liehuo, Elder Feng, and Cultivator Ding.

Among them, only Jin Wuhuan is at the mid-Nascent Soul stage, while the rest are at the early-Nascent Soul stage.

The righteous path: one person from Tai Zhen Sect, two people from Tian Ji Sect, and one person from Hao Ran Pavilion.

Demonic Path: Two from the Joyful Union Sect, one from the Thousand Illusions Sect, and two from the Heavenly Fiend Sect.

The location of a hilly area.

A burly old man with a full head of gray hair was wielding three small golden swords that he was relentlessly slashing at a man and a woman from the Hehuan Sect.

The man and woman were none other than the Fat and Charming Twin Demons of the Hehuan Sect.

"Jin Wuhuan, weren't you in seclusion for life-or-death cultivation? Why did you come out of seclusion early?"

The two escaped members of the Hehuan Sect were furious and shocked.

Intelligence indicates that this old man has been in seclusion for over a decade, and will most likely remain in seclusion for the rest of his life.

But why did they have to leave the pass at this particular time?
Little did they know, this was one of the preparations made by the Ancient Sword Sect.

"Hmph, do you think that because I've entered seclusion, the three sects of Yunmeng are easy to bully?"

With a cold snort, he continued to urge the three precious swords to relentlessly pursue and attack.

This caused the two demons, Fei and Cha, to suffer greatly.

When the two of them joined forces to use their secret techniques, they were no less powerful than ordinary mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators. However, Jin Wuhuan was not an ordinary mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator; he was one of the top sword cultivators in Tiannan. His combat strength far surpassed that of ordinary mid-stage cultivators.

finally.

Although the two escaped Yunmeng Mountain and Xi Kingdom, they were severely weakened.

For the next hundred years, they dared not set foot in Xi Kingdom again.

...

On the other side, in a mountain forest.

Two Nascent Soul cultivators from the Heavenly Extreme Sect were cursing and hiding.

Pursuing the two were three Nascent Soul stage cultivators and twenty or thirty Core Formation stage experts.

The three Nascent Soul stage cultivators were none other than Elder Liehuo of Baiqiao Academy and the old men surnamed Feng and Ding.

Besides the three, there were three Core Formation stage disciples who possessed the three treasures of the sect.

These three individuals unleashed their sect's three most treasured artifacts, each capable of unleashing the explosive power of half a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, making them the three strongest combat forces.

More than thirty people were chasing after them, and the two old monsters from the Tianji Sect looked extremely ugly.

"Damn it! Not only were all the Core Formation stage cultivators we brought lost, but we're also in such a sorry state. Did the Hundred Crafts Academy really trick us?!"

"I think it wasn't just Baiqiaoyuan who tricked us, but the three sects of Yunmeng."

The other person said in a deep voice.

"The situation is not right. Evacuate immediately. We can discuss the matter of the alcohol later."

"Walk."

...

In the western part of Yunmeng Mountain, there is a sea of ​​trees.

The elder of Tai Zhen Sect was blocked by Hong Fu with her sword.

"Fellow Daoist, this road is blocked."

Hong Fu, dressed in a Taoist robe, held a sword as red as blood. She stood there with her sword, and the old man from the Tai Zhen Sect, holding a whisk, dared not make a move.

"In just a few decades, you have actually cultivated to the peak of the early Nascent Soul stage. Fellow Daoist Hong Fu is truly a genius. In your earlier years, you were buried in the Yellow Maple Valley."

The old man praised it.

In his heart, however, he was secretly cursing Linghu Laoguai for being unreliable.

If Linghu could keep people here, why would Hongfu be here to hinder him?

He had assumed that Hong Fu was just a newly promoted Nascent Soul cultivator.

Having entered the Nascent Soul stage less than a century ago, his foundation is still shallow, making him easy to manipulate.

But after their previous exchange, he was astonished to discover that the female cultivator opposite him had actually cultivated to the peak of the early Nascent Soul stage over the past few decades, and her magical power was no less than his. This was simply unbelievable.

Furthermore, his spiritual sense was also quite remarkable, completely at the level of a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. This also puzzled him greatly.

Furthermore, thanks to the inheritance of Mu Li, his magical treasures not only rival those of a seasoned Nascent Soul cultivator like Mu Li, but are even slightly superior.

therefore.

He wasn't prepared to fight this woman to the death.

By delaying people here, the goal has been achieved.

...

Similar situations are occurring elsewhere.

In the original timeline, the only righteous sect that infiltrated and took action was the Haoran Pavilion, while the demonic sects were the Qianhuan Sect and the Tiansha Sect. On the surface, there were only four righteous and demonic Nascent Soul cultivators involved in this operation.

They were Jin Jing, the scholar from Haoran Pavilion; Fen Laoguai from Qianhuan Sect; Tian Sha Zhenjun from Tian Sha Sect; and another person. Among them, Tian Sha Zhenjun did not come in person, but used a part of his primordial spirit to perform a possession technique.

The remaining powerful figures from both the righteous and demonic factions, along with cultivators like Long Han and Feng Bing from the Heavenly Dao Alliance, were keeping each other in check in other areas.

It can be said that both the righteous and the demonic forces are petty in their efforts and resources.

But this time it was completely different.

Together, the righteous and the demonic factions arranged for nine Nascent Soul stage cultivators to participate in the operation, with as many as thirty or forty Core Formation stage cultivators providing assistance.

The reason for such elaborate preparations was twofold. Firstly, the Falling Cloud Sect had gained Hong Fu. Secondly, the three Yunmeng Sects now had the added uncertainty of Han Li, and the Hehuan Sect Master Tian had learned from the Cloud Dew Old Demon that Tian Buque had died at Han Li's hands. Therefore, Sect Master Tian, ​​who hadn't acted in the original timeline, entrusted one of the two Fat and Charming Demons, a male cultivator from the Tian family, to come to Xi Kingdom to join in the fun.

Originally intending to test Han Li's strength by fighting two opponents alone, he "unluckyly" yet "luckily" bumped into Jin Wuhuan.

According to the intelligence gathered beforehand by both the righteous and demonic factions, Jin Wuhuan should be in seclusion at this time, and he will not emerge until he makes a breakthrough in his cultivation or achieves a breakthrough in certain aspects.

In this situation, with nine Nascent Soul cultivators appearing around the sacred tree in the forbidden area of ​​the three sects, taking away the pure liquid would be no problem, let alone stealing the Spirit Eye Tree.

But, as fate would have it, accidents kept happening.

I don't know.

The three sects of Yunmeng have been preparing for this day for eight or nine years, both openly and secretly.

When the time came, Jin Wuhuan emerged from the pass.

The two demons, Fei and Cha, only ran into the sword's edge.

...

Now let's talk about the other side of the valley where the sacred tree is located.

The two Nascent Soul stage cultivators, Burning Old Monster of the Thousand Illusions Sect and Qin Shusheng of the Vast and Powerful Pavilion, feigned weakness and retreated step by step, leading Cheng Tiankun, Lü Luo, the middle-aged man surnamed Zhang from the Ancient Sword Sect, and a group of cultivators from the three sects into an ambush.

The next moment, the Nascent Soul stage cultivator from the Heavenly Fiend Sect, along with a group of disguised demon cubs who had infiltrated the Stream Kingdom, suddenly attacked.

In the original timeline, the Zhang surname cultivator from the Ancient Sword Sect was lured away by the others, while Cheng Tiankun and Lü Luo from the Falling Cloud Sect led their team to attack. However, they were outnumbered and ambushed, suffering heavy losses as they were surrounded by three against two.

The Yu family member from the Luoyun Sect, along with several other Core Formation stage cultivators from the three sects, perished here.

Cheng Tiankun was seriously injured and his vital energy was greatly depleted in order to cover up the injuries of the cultivators in the sect.

Wei Tian, ​​on whom high hopes were placed, was ruined by Tian Sha Zhenjun.

The alcohol was also stolen.

The three factions lost money hand over fist.

And this time.

The situation is completely the opposite.

Because it wasn't just Cheng Tiankun and Lü Luo, both Nascent Soul stage cultivators, who were chasing after Old Monster Fen and Scholar Qin.

"Old monster Fen, don't run away. Stay here and have a few more sword strikes with me."

The Zhang-surnamed cultivator from the Ancient Sword Sect sneered and mocked.

This infuriated Old Monster Fen, but he couldn't retaliate in the slightest.

"Very well, the three sects of Yunmeng are truly skilled. We underestimated you. You two, surnamed You and Chen, are you sure you want to get involved in this matter?"

Beside Cheng Tiankun, Lü Luo, and the Zhang-surnamed cultivator, there was a burly man and a cultivator with a bulbous nose.

The man held a small golden bell in his hand.

Whenever they saw that small bell, Old Monster Fen and Scholar Qin felt a sense of dread and lingering fear.

The small bell is called the "Bewitching Immortal Bell," and it is the treasure of another Nascent Soul level sect in a neighboring country of Xi Kingdom. The burly man surnamed You, as the sect's Supreme Elder, is on good terms with Cheng Tiankun and Fire Dragon Boy, among others. When he learned that they needed to deal with the Nascent Soul stage cultivators who had infiltrated Xi Kingdom, he immediately agreed.

Holding the precious bell, the cultivator surnamed You, who was in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, even dared to face a powerful expert in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

"Hmph, you demons, you dare to try and destroy the last remaining Spirit Eye Tree in Tiannan? How can we tolerate you?"

The burly man surnamed You snorted coldly in response.

Even the Nascent Soul stage cultivator with rosacea scoffed at the threat posed by the Burning Old Monster:

"I, Chen, also do not wish to see this last remaining Spirit Eye Tree in Tiannan, over ten thousand years old, destroyed. Besides, do the people of my Heavenly Dao Alliance still have any sense of morality with you scoundrels of the righteous and demonic paths? You launched a sneak attack more than a hundred years ago, and you still launch sneak attacks now. Bah, shameless bastards, you even dare to threaten us..."

Upon hearing this, Old Monster Fen gritted his teeth.

Qin Taisheng, the scholar who wore the golden mirror, also turned green:
"Damn it."

This is indeed something that is unethical for both the righteous and the demonic factions.

My original plan was to have sex, take the stuff, and leave.

Unexpectedly, the three sects of Yunmeng were not only well-prepared, but their preparations were far more thorough than anticipated. Even though they temporarily added several more people, they were still outnumbered.

If things had gone according to plan, only three to five Nascent Soul stage cultivators would have infiltrated…

If that happens, wouldn't it mean that everyone who came here will be surrounded and trapped?
"What should we do? If we keep being chased like this, we'll be trapped sooner or later."

The old monster sent a telepathic message to the scholar Jin Jing.

"Or should we proceed according to plan?"

"Huh? Still sticking to the plan? But even with Old Monster Xu included, the three of us can't possibly beat those five or six..."

However, Old Monster Fen soon understood the true intentions of Scholar Jin Jing.

His expression also changed:
"Isn't it a bit much to rip off Old Monster Xu like this?"

The scholar Jin Jing's response was also very simple:
"Without someone to share the burden, our chances of escaping Xi Kingdom are less than 30%. If a third person shares the burden, our chances of escaping Xi Kingdom will at least become 60%. If a third person covers our retreat, our chances of escaping will be as high as 80% or 90%. Brother Fen, what do you think?"

As soon as the Golden Mirror Scholar's voice transmission ended, Old Monster Fen was tempted.

But when he looked at the upright scholar again, his expression changed: As expected of a scholar, he had a whole set of tricks up his sleeve when it came to betraying his allies.

"Alright, let's bring in Old Monster Xu from the Heavenly Fiend Sect. We might be able to fight."

"That's what Old Monster Burning said."

then.

The two were driven by a "better to die than lose" mentality. They deliberately shifted the blame, luring the Nascent Soul cultivators of the three Yunmeng sects, along with their two hired helpers, to the hiding place of the Tiansha sect cultivators. This place was originally a pre-arranged ambush point by both the righteous and demonic paths to strike at the Yunmeng sects' pursuers.

The area was teeming with the elusive Xu Laoguai of the Tian Sha Sect and a large number of demonic youths who had infiltrated the Xi Kingdom in disguise.

When the group of lurkers from the Heavenly Fiend Sect saw the situation of five chasing and two escaping, they were all dumbfounded.

next moment.

The old monster of the Heavenly Fiend Sect cursed the old monster of the Thousand Illusions Sect and Qin Shusheng of the Vast and Powerful Pavilion, cursing their ancestors for eighteen generations.

Immediately, he abandoned his disciples and fled.

The planned 3 vs. 2 situation suddenly turned into 3 vs. 5, and could even become 3 vs. 6 at any time.

What kind of ambush is this?

The group of demonic brats immediately scattered like birds and beasts.

They were subsequently investigated and killed by disciples from the three Yunmeng sects who caught up with them.

...

Just as the three sects of Yunmeng were calling on their friends to surround and intercept a large number of cultivators from both the righteous and demonic paths who had infiltrated the Xi Kingdom.

In the southwest of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, Long Han and Feng Bing, along with more than ten Nascent Soul cultivators, confronted a group of Nascent Soul cultivators from the righteous path from a distance.

To the southeast, several mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, along with more than twenty early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, blocked the group from the six sects of the Demonic Path.

No conflict broke out in the southwest of the Heavenly Alliance.

Long Hanfengbing and Master Zhiyang were both very restrained.

But to the southeast, the Heavenly Fiend True Lord was furious:
"How dare you scheme against me, the True Lord!"

They immediately joined forces with the Nascent Soul stage cultivator, Old Monster Lian, from the Demon Flame Sect, to take the lead in attempting to force their way through this trial and cause trouble for the three sects of Yunmeng.

However, these two veteran Nascent Soul stage cultivators became stepping stones for Barbarian Beard to achieve fame in one battle.

"Want to get through here? Then ask me first..."

Barbarian Beard appears and fights two against one.

The golden body, several tens of feet tall, adorned with several specially matched ancient treasures, resembled a guardian deity. The Heavenly Fiend True Lord, whose primordial spirit was damaged and whose strength had greatly diminished, was quickly driven away in terror by the barbarian.

The two magical treasures were taken away by the barbarian.

"This guy dares to call himself a True Lord?"

"Is this all the Heavenly Fiend True Monarch of this generation of the Heavenly Fiend Sect is capable of? Truly disappointing."

Heavenly Fiend True Lord pointed at the barbarian bearded man, somewhat exasperated:
"you…"

"Your methods of using baleful energy are not bad, but my baleful energy is far superior to what you possess. If you could gather baleful energy to my level, the power of your technique could be fully unleashed. What a pity, what a pity."

The bearded man spoke in a condescending tone, which made the Heavenly Fiend True Lord even more furious.

"Then let me, Lian, test your mettle and witness my demonic fire..."

"Go together."

After a contest:

"Your method of refining strange flames is quite skillful, but unfortunately, it is far less dangerous than the Azure Ice Flame that I have seen. So, in order not to disgrace this inheritance, I should give it to you for research."

The three of them started fighting.

As a result, Tian Sha Zhenjun was beaten even more severely, while the arrogant Lian Laoguai had his physical body destroyed and his storage bag stolen by Man Hu Zi. In the end, he was even almost captured alive by Man Hu Zi using his Wind and Fire Wings.

"The sect leader of the Demon Flame Sect is nothing special, nothing special at all, hahahaha..."

He fought two opponents alone, not only holding his own but also emerging victorious. Furthermore, he destroyed the physical body of one of them.

This result surprised both sides.

It left everyone in the audience stunned and speechless.

"hiss…!"

However, this was not what truly silenced both sides.

Barbarian Beard's true strength lay in his subsequent battle with the Old Demon of Joy.

In that battle, vast mountains and rivers were flattened, and a huge crater was created in the earth. The barbarian, a pure mid-stage Nascent Soul body cultivator who also had ancient treasures to make up for his shortcomings, displayed a level of skill and strength that opened the eyes of all the old monsters present, and at the same time, they were extremely shocked.

"Excellent, excellent, excellent! That old demon Hehuan is truly formidable, worthy of being a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator..."

The bearded man laughed heartily.

Although this person is not as good as Wan Sangu, she is not far off.

As for him, although he lost, he was still honorable in defeat.

"this…"

"So strong!"

"That's the Old Demon of the Joyous Union! How could he actually fight the Old Demon of the Joyous Union to a standstill?"

Even the old demon of the Hehuan Sect himself became increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed.

Although he ultimately won, the fight was only a brief exchange.

But he was certain that if he pushed too far and continued to harass the man until it was dead, then even if he killed him, he would end up severely injured and forced to leave the scene.

"When did such a powerful figure emerge from the Heavenly Dao Alliance?"

The Old Demon of Hehuan frowned as he looked at the bearded man who was quickly retreating with his Wind and Fire Wings and asked the other cultivators of the Hehuan Sect.

Sect Leader Tian shook his head, indicating that he had no recollection of it at all.

"I've never seen this person before. Could he be a spy planted by the Mulan people?"

Some people open their mouths and immediately mention a large pot.

The Demonic Path immediately informed the Heavenly Path Alliance of this explanation.

The cultivators of the Heavenly Dao Alliance looked at the group of a dozen or so people from the Six Demonic Sects as if they were a bunch of idiots.

Do you think they don't know whether Barbarian Beard is within the Heavenly Dao Alliance's sphere of influence?

But so what if they're not native to the Heavenly Alliance?
Those who are willing to fight for them are one of our own.

Over the years, their Heavenly Alliance has clashed with both the righteous and demonic paths.

Because the righteous and demonic paths, besides possessing two late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, also have over a dozen mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators and more than a hundred early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators. In contrast, the Heavenly Dao Alliance, with its more than ten or twenty nations combined, only has ten mid-stage Nascent Soul experts. What they lack is top-tier combat power.

At this moment, the Barbarian Beard appeared, with the three sects of Yunmeng as guarantors. He defeated the Heavenly Fiend True Monarch in one battle and severely injured the Old Monster Lian of the Demon Flame Sect, destroying the old monster's physical body. He was even able to challenge the Joyful Union Old Demon, and his strength was not much different from that of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. He was definitely another Heavenly Hatred Old Monster, or perhaps even more powerful than the Heavenly Hatred Old Monster?

This is a lone, independent cultivator who is not only powerful but has also offended the demonic path and has someone vouching for him.

These kinds of people are clearly their natural allies.

If we don't firmly hold onto these allies, are we going to hand them over to the demonic path?
Furthermore, there are rumors that the barbarian bearded man doesn't have much time left to live.

And there was indeed a faint aura of gloom emanating from the bearded man.

These are signs that only appear in the Nascent Soul stage when a lifespan is less than a hundred years; they cannot be faked.

Looking at it this way, he's even more suitable to be a member of their Heavenly Dao Alliance.

Therefore, he is definitely a local from Tiannan.

This infuriated the old monsters of the Six Demonic Sects.

He angrily denounced the Heavenly Dao Alliance cultivators for letting wolves into the house.

However, the Heavenly Alliance members retorted, mocking the demonic experts present as "meddling in other people's business."

In short.

After this battle, Barbarian Beard made a significant contribution and gained the recognition of many Nascent Soul cultivators in the Heavenly Dao Alliance. They acknowledged that this ascetic cultivator, whose lifespan was nearing its end, was from the Flower Rain Kingdom, which was within the Heavenly Dao Alliance's territory. Near the Flower Rain Kingdom, there was a vast desert stretching for hundreds of thousands of miles, where Barbarian Beard had cultivated in seclusion many years ago.

Whether the righteous and demonic paths believe it or not, the people of the Heavenly Alliance firmly believe it.

dark place.

Qing Yi, who was ready to support the barbarian bearded man at any time, stroked his beard and put away the top-tier ancient treasures Forget-Worry Needle and Meteor Shuttle.

"It's good that there wasn't a major fight..."

Clearly, Han Li didn't trust the cultivators of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, fearing that Barbarian Beard would be betrayed by his incompetent allies. So he sent Qing Yi with the Meteor Shuttle to secretly accompany them.

If anything seems amiss, he immediately helps the bearded man escape and then runs away.

Fortunately.

The old monsters of the Heavenly Alliance are neither stupid nor cunning.

There was no act of self-destruction.

"Judging by the time, if we return to Xi Kingdom now, we should still be able to get a taste of soup. Maybe we can even catch a lone Nascent Soul or Core Formation cultivator?"

Since things are already in such a mess, and he hasn't shown up at all, as long as we're quick and clean up the scene properly, we can quietly make a small fortune...

Without almost anyone in the arena noticing, Qing Yi flew towards Yunmeng Mountain in Xi Kingdom.

"If it were me, I would definitely escape via this route. Let's just try our luck along this route."

There is a foggy area along this road, which should be a trace of escape.

a few days later.

Having finally managed to alleviate the pressure by diverting the blame eastward, and thus escaped the pursuit of the three sects of Yunmeng, Old Monster Fen arrived at this misty miasma area. Before he could even catch his breath, his brows suddenly began to twitch wildly.

He released his divine sense, and then, his expression changed drastically as he looked up at a spot dozens of feet away.

There, standing there, was a kind-looking old man in a blue robe.

The old man was a complete stranger, yet he stroked his beard and smiled at him in a very familiar manner.

Upon seeing this person, Old Monster Fen retreated in horror:

"How is this possible? I only sensed someone getting this close?"

Thirty or forty zhang is already an extremely dangerous distance.

Without the slightest hesitation, he unleashed his natal flying blade and shot it towards his opponent without a word.

This person has a kind face, but is definitely not a kind person.

"What does this mean, fellow Taoist?"

Qing Yi spread his hands, and an ancient copper coin appeared in his palm. He threw it at the flying blade that shot towards him, and immediately knocked down the old monster's natal flying blade.

The Treasure-Losing Coin is specifically designed to knock down small, metallic treasures.

It is the nemesis of flying needles, and also the nemesis of small-sized throwing knives and blades.

Upon seeing this, Old Monster Fen's face turned extremely ugly:

"Who are you, fellow Daoist? Why are you making things difficult for my Thousand Illusions Sect?"

But Qingyi completely ignored the other party's intentions. Without waiting for the old monster to take out any other treasures, he pulled out an ancient treasure hammer from his sleeve and smashed it several times against the old monster's natal flying blade that he had taken from him.

These blows left the defenseless flying blade reeling, severely damaging its spiritual essence. With his natal magic weapon damaged, the old monster, whose mind was connected to it, felt his blood surge and his face flush red.

At that moment, a ripple spread through the void three feet behind the Old Monster Burning.

The tip of a flying needle quietly emerged from it.

One move, and the treasure is stolen.

One move, and the treasure is damaged, which in turn implicates the person who possesses the treasure.

Another move: a sneak attack with flying needles.

This is Qingyi's three-pronged approach, and this is the first time he has tried it.

The Thousand Illusions Sect's mountain gate, millions of miles away.

Inside the ancestral hall.

Six oil lamps were placed at the highest point.

These oil lamps are specially crafted soul lamps, and the flames they burn are a wisp of the cultivator's essence.

The six oil lamps here correspond to the states of the six Nascent Soul ancestors of the Thousand Illusions Sect.

now.

One of the lamps went out without warning.

The caregivers who witnessed this scene were first stunned, then horrified:

"Disaster! Disaster!"

...

Let's go back to the sword-testing tournament a few days ago.

The time has come for the three sects of Yunmeng to pursue the cultivators of both the righteous and demonic paths.

In a forest.

Two Core Formation stage cultivators from the Ancient Sword Sect joined forces to pursue an elderly demonic cultivator in the late Core Formation stage.

The two people from the Ancient Sword Sect, one male and one female, were a Daoist couple.

He was male, and his cultivation level was only at the mid-stage of Core Formation.

The woman's cultivation level was already at the peak of the late Core Formation stage.

This young woman was exceptionally beautiful, with a natural fragrance that could enchant and eclipse the moon and flowers. Her body exuded a delicate floral scent that was intoxicating. Furthermore, one would find oneself unconsciously drawn to her and wanting to fulfill some of her small requests.

The fleeing demonic cultivators witnessed their companions being lulled into a false sense of security by the woman's faint floral scent, and then killed.

Even he, with his late-stage Core Formation cultivation, barely managed to resist that subtle temptation.

Even so, he was still hit once, and for a moment he was disoriented, which caused him to lose control of his magic weapon and be hit repeatedly. As a result, the magic weapon was damaged, and one of his arms was also lost.

“Fellow Daoists, it is wise to be lenient when you can. You have already spared one of our Core Formation cultivators, so why be so aggressive? I have not harmed anyone from the three sects of Yunmeng. How about letting me leave? I will repay you handsomely in the future.”

The old man from the Heavenly Fiend Sect sought a way to survive.

rear.

The two from the Ancient Sword Sect pursued relentlessly, remaining unmoved.
“Those wicked villains deserve to be killed by everyone.”

"Do we need to explain what kind of wicked scheme you've come here for? If the Sacred Tree is damaged, it will be more difficult for us to form our Nascent Souls in the future. You deserve to die."

The couple's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

The female cultivator transformed into a cluster of flower petals and suddenly accelerated her escape technique.

To outsiders, all they can see are petals that resemble a meteor shower.

The old man was greatly surprised upon seeing this:

"Witch, do you really intend to wipe us all out?"

witch?

She was actually called a witch by a demonic lord?
The female cultivator smiled:

"Compared to you demonic thieves, what kind of demoness am I?"

However, what the woman did not notice was that she and her Daoist partner had unknowingly strayed from the main force while pursuing their target, and were now quite far away from the main force.

The old man fleeing ahead, despite being hit by the secret technique each time, always managed to regain his senses immediately, as if he had received divine assistance.

Then, acting as bait, he led the couple away from the main group.

A hilltop not far away.

Han Li's true form manifested.

"Finally, I've lured you out."

Along the way, he concealed his tracks, and whenever the old demonic cultivator was out of his mind, he would subtly stimulate him with his divine sense, preventing the couple from catching up with and capturing him too easily.

Thanks to his divine intervention, the old man managed to escape to this place without any major incidents.

"It should be about time to start here,"

His gaze then fell on the young woman.

The young woman's name was Ming Xin. In the original storyline, she was the fourth Nascent Soul cultivator of the Ancient Sword Sect. She had achieved Nascent Soul cultivation about twenty years earlier than the original owner of this body.

In other words, in the original timeline, this woman was the Nascent Soul that condensed around the time of the Sword Trial Tournament.

However, due to Han Li's series of actions, the woman was forced to postpone the time for forming her nascent soul.

After all, everyone else is preparing for the ambush at the Sword Trial Tournament years in advance, so why should you, Mingxin, be an exception?
Even if I'm confident, I'll have to wait until after the sword-testing tournament.

If the high-level cultivators of the Ancient Sword Sect go into seclusion every time a major event occurs, what will the others think? What will the Falling Cloud Sect and the Hundred Crafts Academy think? Why should anyone accept this?
So, both the Luoyun Sect and the Baiqiao Academy have mobilized everyone to make thorough preparations for today's battle, with Nascent Soul cultivators even pulling strings and bringing in a few friends. Why is the Ancient Sword Sect being treated differently? Are they trying to get special treatment?

Ever since.

Mingxin was delayed.

They were even forced to participate in this operation.

One of Han Li's targets was this woman.

He wouldn't be polite about taking the treasures from this woman.

　I have something to do tomorrow, so I'll post both of them together to avoid missing the deadline.
