Mortal: I became invincible after becoming sworn brothers with Han Li.

After the light landed, it revealed the figure of a square-faced man.

The man raised his hand to put away the magical artifact, then walked up to Chan Fang and Chan Tianli and bowed respectfully.

"Greetings to the two venerable ancestors!"

"How are those two demonic beasts doing now?" Chan Fang hummed in response and asked.

"Reporting to the Ancestor, those two demonic beasts have remained in the cave and have not left. However, according to my observation, the female beast will begin laying eggs in three days at most!" the square-faced man replied respectfully.

"Good, you did a good job! Go back and continue monitoring the demonic beasts. Three days from now will be the best time for us to strike and kill them!"

Upon hearing this, a smile finally appeared on Chan Fang's cold face. He praised the square-faced disciple and then said...

The square-faced man immediately agreed, then took out his magical artifact again and flew back into the depths of the mountains.

Afterwards, under the arrangement of Chan Tianli, everyone found an open space nearby, sat down cross-legged, and waited for news from the square-faced man.

Three days later, when the cultivator from the Chan family who had reached the Pseudo-Core Realm received the message on the jade tablet from the square-faced man.

At Chan Fang's command, everyone took out their magical artifacts and followed the two Core Formation elders of the Chan family to the planned location.

In an unnamed valley a dozen miles away from the monster cave, Chan Fang landed with four Foundation Establishment cultivators and ten Qi Refining cultivators.

Meanwhile, Chan Tianli led the remaining people to hide in another direction of the monster cave.

"Remember, once I lure that male beast here, immediately activate the 'Four Deadly Blood Formation' to trap it. This formation is extremely powerful; even a level five demonic beast cannot easily escape. As long as you use the formation to help me kill the beast, the reward promised by the Chan family will be paid in full. But if you let the beast escape..."

Although Chan Fang didn't finish his sentence, the coldness in his eyes still sent chills down the spines of the rogue cultivators who had come to help. They hurriedly expressed that they would do their best.

Meanwhile, Chan Tianli on the other side said something similar to the cultivators he had brought.

After waiting for a while, Chan Fang suddenly changed his expression and looked up at the distant horizon, where he saw a streak of fiery red light flying rapidly toward him.

He raised his hand and summoned the red light. After listening to the words inside, he squeezed the firelight with all his might, causing it to burst into starlight that dissipated into the air.

"Prepare the formation, I'll go lure the monster here!" Chan Fang instructed the group, then transformed into a streak of light and soared into the sky, flying towards the monster's cave.

Those who remained immediately began setting up formations, then concealed their auras and hid, waiting for Chan Fang to lure out the demonic beasts.

Less than half an incense stick's time later, everyone heard a sharp cry coming from afar.

Immediately following, two streaks of light, one gold and one blue, flew rapidly towards the valley!

"Our ancestor is back! Everyone, get ready!" The only cultivator from the Chan family among the four Foundation Establishment cultivators shouted a reminder to the others.

Just as the golden light was about to reach the sky above the valley, it suddenly stopped, revealing Chan Fang's cold face.

He turned around and made a hand seal, and dozens of golden light blades condensed in the air. Then, with a wave of his hand, those light blades shot out towards the blue light behind him!

The demonic beast in the blue light, seeing the attack coming, did not pause at all and let out another cry.

Numerous cyan wind blades shot out from the cyan light, blocking all the golden light blades.

It continued flying towards the direction of Chan without slowing down.

Upon seeing this, Chan Fang's lips curled into a cold smile. Golden light emanated from his body once more. After making a turn in the air, he plunged straight down into the valley below.

Seeing this, the demon beast also rushed into the valley, and with a flash of green light, it revealed its true appearance.

It was a huge monster that was over ten zhang long, with four claws on its body, four wings on its back, a sharp beak and sharp eyes.

The cultivators hidden around the valley, upon seeing the demonic beast fall into the array's range, each took out a blood-red array flag and activated it without needing to be commanded.

The next moment, four thick red beams shot into the sky, followed by ten thinner red beams of light...

Meanwhile, Chan Tianli and his group, hidden on the other side of the monster cave, also began preparing their formation.

"Chan Yi, the male beast should already be trapped by my elder brother and the others. I will lure the female beast out later. You can take this opportunity to enter the cave and steal the demon beast egg!" Chan Tianli said to the fake Core Formation cultivator.

"yes!"

"Remember, once you succeed, return to the family immediately, and under no circumstances should you reveal the news of the beast egg!" Chan Tianli nodded, then gave another reminder.

"Ancestor, the formation is ready. As soon as the demon beast enters the area, we can activate it immediately and trap it here!" The man from the Chan family among the Foundation Establishment cultivators stepped forward and respectfully cupped his hands in greeting.

"Alright, you all hide your figures and auras well, I'll go lure the female beast over!" After saying that, Chan Tianli transformed into a golden light and soared into the sky, flying towards the monster's cave.

……

Inside a small hall atop the main peak of the Luoyun Sect, a dozen Core Formation cultivators stood respectfully on either side.

Inside the hall, on the main seats, an elderly man with silver hair and a middle-aged man sat calmly.

"Regarding the proposal by fellow Daoists Long Han and Feng Bing of the Luanming Sect to form the Heavenly Dao Alliance, my senior brother and I have already agreed. However, the establishment of the Heavenly Dao Alliance is only to resist the invasion of both the righteous and demonic paths. The sect's future actions will remain unchanged. Please inform all disciples of this matter as soon as possible."

The middle-aged man glanced at the crowd below before standing up and speaking slowly.

Upon hearing this, the Core Formation cultivators present were slightly startled, but they did not show anything and instead bowed respectfully.

"I will obey the Supreme Elder's order!"

The middle-aged man waved his hand, and after everyone left, he turned to the silver-haired old man beside him and said something.

"Senior brother, the situation in Tiannan is so chaotic now. It seems that the righteous and demonic paths have conspired to simultaneously annex some of the surrounding countries. What will become of our Luoyun Sect in the future...?"

"Junior brother, there's no need to worry too much. With the two fellow Daoists from Luanming Sect leading the way, the Heavenly Dao Alliance's strength is not much weaker than the righteous and demonic paths. Neither the righteous nor the demonic path alone would dare to invade Xi Kingdom," the silver-haired elder chuckled, comforting him.

"Sigh, I hope so! The righteous Supreme Yang and the demonic Hehuan Old Demon, plus Wei Wuyai of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, are the only three remaining late-stage cultivators in Tiannan. Although the Heavenly Dao Alliance is not weak, it will still be somewhat lacking without the presence of a late-stage great cultivator..." The middle-aged man frowned slightly, still somewhat worried.

"Hehe, although Fellow Daoist Long and Fellow Daoist Feng are only at the mid-stage of cultivation, the two of them working together are enough to contend with late-stage cultivators. Otherwise, the Ancient Sword Sect and the Hundred Crafts Academy would not have agreed so easily. You know the temper of Old Monster Jin of the Ancient Sword Sect."

The silver-haired old man chuckled, seemingly unconcerned about what the middle-aged man was saying.
