At this moment, far away in the valley of the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm, the Netherworld Demon Lion's colossal claws, blotting out the sky, were bringing a bloody storm as they slammed down on Xing Jin, who was exhausted! The pitch-black demonic energy swirling around the claws was causing the surrounding rocks to crumble inch by inch; life and death hung in the balance, a matter of life and death!

At this critical moment, an extremely clear cry of a spirit beast suddenly tore through the sky—"Screech—!"

It was a resounding cry that pierced the clouds, exuding majesty, and subtly overpowered the roar of the demonic lion. Suddenly, the sky was ripped apart by a dazzling silver ray! A colossal spirit bird, pure white with wings that shimmered with starlight, swooped down like a meteor. Its wingspan was so vast it blotted out the sun, each feather reflecting a ghostly blue starlight—it was Starfeather, the innate spirit beast that had sensed the impending crisis facing Star Ash!

"Clang!"

With a gentle flap of its wings, Xingyu unleashed countless condensed star blades, raining down upon the Netherworld Lion's claws. Clang! Clang! The deafening sound of metal clashing against metal was deafening; the demonic claws, capable of tearing through stone, were forced back by the star blades, cracking inch by inch!

The Netherworld Lion was stunned by the sudden pressure, its massive body retreating repeatedly. For the first time, fear appeared in its bronze bell-sized eyes. It let out an angry roar, but dared not attack rashly again, only staring intently at the divine bird of the stars that had descended from the sky.

Seeing this, Xingjin immediately mustered his last bit of strength and rushed to Xingyu's side, speaking in a trembling voice, "Thank you so much, Lord Xingyu, for saving my life!"

Xingyu blinked human-like, its wings flapping lightly, and a stream of warm star power flowed into Xingjin's body, instantly soothing its churning injuries and demonic energy: "Young friend, you are an ancient innate star spirit fox, possessing a primordial essence. You must not perish here. The evil cultivators of the Netherworld Branch are attempting to control the five great secret realms, endangering the Cangxing Realm. How can we, the spirit beast race, sit idly by?"

With that, Xingyu flapped her wings, and in an instant, countless star blades intertwined to form an impenetrable astral barrier, trapping the Netherworld Lion within. The lion charged frantically, but only stirred up golden ripples on the barrier, unable to budge it an inch.

"Let's go deep into the secret realm!" Xingyu's voice was clear and melodious, like jade striking each other. "There, there are rare and precious treasures that can help you completely stabilize your origin, and also allow us to fight side by side and thwart the Netherworld Branch's conspiracy!"

A resolute glint flashed in Xing Jin's eyes. He nodded emphatically and followed closely behind Xing Yu, soaring towards the deepest part of the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm.

Meanwhile, a thousand miles away in the Wind and Thunder Secret Realm, Jiang Xubai's Lingxiao Pavilion disciples were out of ammunition and supplies. Their white robes were stained with blood, and their white jade folding fans were broken in two. The prodigies led by Zhanchen Sword Pavilion and Yulei Sect were closing in relentlessly, and it seemed that the Lingxiao Pavilion group was about to be completely annihilated.

At this critical moment, three distinct auras swept in from the entrance of the secret realm.

The leading figure, clad in pristine white, surrounded by condensed, radiant flames, was none other than the foremost prodigy of Danxiao Valley, leading the team. With a light leap, he reached the front lines, unleashing three Exploding Flame Pills that repelled a fierce attack. He then glared angrily at the members of Zhanchen Sword Pavilion and Yulei Sect, shouting sternly:

"Danxiao Valley is here to reinforce you! Zhanchen Sword Pavilion and Yulei Sect, how dare you! With the secret realm at hand, the Netherworld Branch is causing chaos everywhere. Instead of joining forces to resist the external enemy, you have joined forces to besiege your own sect's prodigy. You are like scoundrels, behaving like demons, and have utterly disgraced the six major sects!"

Before he finished speaking, he turned to the side, raised his hand, and gestured to the two teams behind him, his clear voice echoing across the battlefield:

"The comrades from Lingxi Valley and Xuanbing Palace have also arrived. Today, we are here solely to eradicate evil cultivators. Anyone who dares to fight amongst themselves will be an enemy of our three sects!"

As soon as the words were spoken, responses came from both sides simultaneously.

The group on the left, dressed in flowing blue robes and surrounded by the spiritual energy of the surrounding vegetation, were disciples of Lingxi Valley. The leading female cultivator flicked her finger, and countless spiritual vines burst forth from the earth, instantly binding several incoming weapons: "Lingxi Valley, lend a hand to Lingxiao Pavilion!"

A chilling aura billowed from the right, icicles sharp as swords—it was the Xuanbing Palace's forces. The leading disciple, his icy eyes cold, raised a hand and froze a large swath of lightning and fire blade energy: "The Xuanbing Palace is here; who dares to act rashly!"

The members of Zhanchen Sword Pavilion and Yulei Sect, publicly rebuked, turned pale and then flushed, their weapons slowly lowering, their intention to attack vanishing. Seeing this, Jiang Xubai immediately stepped forward to smooth things over, holding his broken fan and bowing respectfully, his tone calm and impartial:

"Please calm your anger, everyone. With a formidable enemy at hand, we must not allow any further discord. Fellow Daoists Zhan Chen and Yu Lei, the Netherworld Branch has already laid a trap, intending to sow discord and defeat you one by one. You were merely misled and deceived by treacherous individuals. Today, let us put aside our personal grudges, work together, break through this encirclement first, then go to the various secret realms to rescue our people, and jointly resist the Netherworld Branch—this is the righteous path!"

The prodigy, the head of the Zhanchen Sword Pavilion, gripped his sword hilt tightly, sighed deeply, and looked ashamed: "Senior Brother Jiang is absolutely right. We were foolish and almost made a terrible mistake!"

The disciples of the Thunder Control Sect also withdrew their attacks and replied in deep voices, "We are willing to obey Senior Brother Jiang's orders and join forces to eliminate the evil cultivator!"

From this moment on, the six major sects are united in their hatred of the enemy!

The tense situation was instantly reversed.

A flicker of surprise and emotion flashed in Jiang Xubai's eyes. He leaned on his broken fan, slowly straightened up, and spoke in a weak but powerful voice: "Good! With the six major sects working together, we will surely be able to quell the Netherworld Branch! At this moment, all the secret realms are in danger, and we cannot delay. We must immediately send troops to provide relief!"

"Danxiao Valley disciples, heed my command!" The chief prodigy of Danxiao Valley responded, "Follow me to the aid of the Pill Refining Secret Realm! Junior Sister Luo Li is being besieged by the Netherworld Evil Cultivators, and the Pill Material Treasury cannot be lost!"

"Everyone from Lingxi Valley, follow me!" The leading female cultivator leaped into the air. "Junior Sister Chu Ling is in grave danger at the cliff edge on the outer edge of the secret realm. We must rush to her rescue!"

"Disciples of the Xuanbing Palace, follow me to the ancient battlefield!" The head disciple of the Xuanbing Palace exclaimed coldly. "Ayan and the Lingxiao Pavilion team are surrounded by remnants of demonic energy. We will use our ice blades to shatter these evil spirits!"

"The Zhan Chen Sword Pavilion and the Yu Lei Sect will stand guard here with me!" Jiang Xubai waved his broken fan. "Purge the remaining evil cultivators from the secret realm and guard the teleportation channel to prevent enemy reinforcements!"

"yes!"

At a single command, the disciples of the six major sects instantly set off in different directions.

Flames shot into the sky from Danxiao Valley, heading straight for the secret realm of alchemy and artifacts;

A cyan figure from Lingxi Valley streaked through the air, rushing to the aid of the perilous cliffside.

The Xuanbing Palace was filled with chilling air, and it charged towards the ancient battlefield.

Lingxiao Pavilion, Zhanchen Sword Pavilion, and Yulei Sect formed a large formation to firmly guard the key point of the Wind and Thunder Secret Realm.

Meanwhile, in the secret realm of alchemy and artifacts, Luo Li was in grave danger, as the Nine Revolutions Pill Array was on the verge of collapse. Just as the six evil cultivators were about to break through the last array rune, the people of Danxiao Valley arrived with a roar. Their pill fire and alchemy techniques intertwined, instantly dissolving the poison techniques and killing all six evil cultivators from the Netherworld Branch.

On the edge of the cliff on the outskirts of the secret realm, Chu Ling, clinging to her last ounce of spiritual energy, was about to collapse from exhaustion. Disciples of Lingxi Valley arrived just in time, swiftly dispatching eight elite scouts and using the spiritual energy of plants to stabilize the poison within her body, safely bringing her to safety.

On the ancient battlefield, Ayan, covered in blood, continued to fight to the death. The chilling aura of the Xuanbing Palace swept in, its extreme freezing power freezing demonic energy and crushing remnant souls, tearing a path to survival for him.

Thus, the crisis in the five secret realms finally took a turn for the better thanks to the concerted efforts of the six major sects.
