"Elder Ye, let's talk inside." Han Lin smiled and reached out to help Ye Qi.

"No need to help me. Although I feel like I won't live much longer, I'm not so weak that I can't walk." Ye Qi avoided Han Lin's hand and walked shakily into the room.

The two sat down at a round table, and Han Lin poured him a cup of warm tea. "Old Ye, what are you doing here at your age? If you want to see me, you can just send someone to tell me."

"Hey, you're such a busy person these days, how could an old man dare to offend you?" Ye Qi said half-jokingly.

"I couldn't wait any longer. If I hadn't come this time, some of my words might have been buried with me."

"...Elder Ye, you want to ask me about the Sword Tomb, right?" Han Lin asked after a moment of silence.

"Yes, Jianling has never returned since he left. I really miss him and I'm worried about his safety. If you know his whereabouts, Vice Alliance Leader, please let me know so that I won't leave this world with regrets." Ye Qi looked at Han Lin with hopeful eyes.

"Elder Ye, Jianling is actually alive and well. He just went to a special place and can't come back for the time being."

Han Lin couldn't bear to tell the truth, so he ultimately did not.

In his mind, Ye Jianling's body was possessed by the last sect master of the Thunderclap Immortal Sect, 'Thunderclap,' and even if he were alive now, he would probably no longer be himself.

"A special place..." Ye Qi's body trembled slightly, the light in his eyes quickly fading. "He... he's dead..."

"No, no!"

Han Lin hurriedly said, "He actually went to the Ruins of the East Sea. The situation there is special, and it's not easy for him to come back."

"The East Sea has returned to nothingness? Is this really true?" Ye Qi asked, his spirits lifting.

"It's absolutely true! I swear it." Han Lin had sworn countless oaths before, so he didn't care about this one or two more. Besides, he was right; Ye Jianling had indeed gone to the East Sea Ruins.

"Okay, okay."

Hearing Han Lin's words, Ye Qi finally smiled. "How is his cultivation level now?"

"I don't know the specifics, but when I came back back then, he was already at the Foundation Establishment stage. With his talent, it's not impossible for him to reach the Core Formation stage now."

"Core Formation!"

As if experiencing a final burst of energy, some color returned to Ye Qi's pale face. "Hahaha, very good! This kid is truly capable! My Ye family now has a Core Formation expert!"

"Yes, the Ye family has a Core Formation expert now. Elder Ye, you don't need to worry about Jianling anymore." Han Lin nodded with a smile, took out a storage bag, and said, "I have some spirit stones here. This place is dangerous, so you should leave quickly to avoid any accidents that might happen and he won't see you when he comes back."

"Spirit stones? No, no, no, what would an old man like me need spirit stones for when he's about to be buried?" Ye Qi pushed the stone back.

"I will fight alongside you."

"What?!"

Han Lin was taken aback. "Elder Ye, this won't do. Look at you, you're already in this state. There's absolutely no need for you to join in this fun. Besides, our Immortal Alliance has nearly 100,000 troops. We don't need another one of your combat strength."

"Vice Alliance Leader, it's not a matter of whether you need it or not, but that I want to go to the battlefield! I don't want any merit, I just want Jianling to know that his great-grandfather also contributed to the righteous path of the world!" Ye Qi said with emotion.

Han Lin opened his mouth, "Why are you doing this?"

Ye Qi smiled, slowly stood up, and walked outside step by step. "Vice Alliance Leader, if I die on the battlefield, remember to tell Jian Ling that his great-grandfather did not disgrace the Ye family, and he must not disgrace the Ye family either."

Han Lin stood up and looked at Ye Qi's hunched figure, wanting to say something, but in the end he said nothing.

He stood there, watching the old man, nearing the end of his life, step out of the room and disappear from sight.

After Ye Qi left, Han Lin sat alone at the table, remaining silent for a long time before getting up and walking outside.

Several hours later.

The sky was already beginning to lighten.

The square of the city lord's mansion was filled with a dense crowd of people.

Han Lin stood on the stone steps in front of the main hall, looking at everyone with a serious expression.

Behind him stood thirty-two Nascent Soul elders from the Immortal Alliance, including the Daoist Jingshou, who remained motionless like wooden stakes.

The number of Golden Core experts who came from the front and those who came from the back totaled 138. This force was estimated to be greater than the combined forces of the Demonic Alliance and the Reverse Immortal Alliance. This battle was no longer as difficult as Han Lin had imagined.

The entire square was completely silent.

Many people initially found it hard to believe that Han Lin, a Golden Core cultivator, could command the entire Immortal Alliance. But now, seeing so many Nascent Soul elders standing quietly behind Han Lin, they realized that Han Lin's power was even greater than they had imagined.

Han Lin looked at everyone, opened his mouth, but found himself feeling a bit depressed and couldn't utter any grand words.

He paused for a moment before slowly speaking: "Seniors, senior brothers and sisters, junior brothers and sisters, the fate of the world rests on this battle. If we win this battle, the world will be at peace!"

If we lose this battle, neither of us will have a place to go!

For the sake of the righteous path of the world, and for our future, I, Han, have only one sentence to offer you all.

"The demonic path will never perish, we will fight to the death!"

"The demonic path will never perish; we will fight to the death!!"

"The demonic path will never perish; we will fight to the death!!"

"The demonic path will never perish...!" As Han Lin's voice fell, more than a hundred Golden Core experts raised their arms and shouted in unison.

The sound pierced through the morning mist and reached outside the city. The tens of thousands of Immortal Alliance troops, who were already prepared, all stood up from the deck and joined in the shout.

"The demonic path will never perish; we will fight to the death!"

"The demonic path will never perish; we will fight to the death!"

"..."

In an instant, the two voices from inside and outside the city merged together, and the powerful sound waves echoed continuously between heaven and earth.

The sound wave dispersed the morning mist and spread towards Broken Soul Mountain. The spies hiding in the shadows were greatly shocked and quickly retreated towards the Demon Alliance army.

Immediately afterwards, more than ten Tier 3 spirit boats rose from the City Lord's Mansion and lined up in the sky above Mugui City!

Seeing the opportunity, the Immortal Alliance army outside the city moved in, with countless spirit boats breaking through the air and lined up neatly behind the third-tier spirit boats.

Clang!

On the deck of a black spirit boat in the center, Han Lin drew his longsword and pointed it forward: "Let's go!"

In an instant, all the spirit boats flashed with various colors of light, like falling meteors, and shot towards the direction of the Broken Soul Mountain Range.

"Oh no! Oh no!"

On the west side of Broken Soul Mountain, within the encampment of the Demonic Alliance army, a panicked voice rang out, and a sword light pierced through the air, landing in front of the central army hall.

"Lord Alliance Leader, something terrible has happened! The Immortal Alliance army is attacking!" The middle-aged scout rushed into the main hall, shouting in alarm.

"What?!"

The tusked giant suddenly opened his eyes. "Is this true?"

"It's absolutely true! Scouts ahead have reported that the entire Immortal Alliance army has been mobilized and is approaching the Broken Soul Mountains. They will cross the Broken Soul Mountains in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!"

"Hmph! After waiting for so long, you've finally arrived."

Upon hearing this, the leader of the alliance, Gou Yi, suddenly stood up and slammed his incredibly thick fist heavily onto a large bell beside him.

when--!

A flash of light appeared on the surface of the bell, emitting a melodious sound that traveled through the hall and quickly spread outwards.

"The Immortal Alliance army is pressing in! All Golden Core cultivators and above, assemble before the palace!" Gou Shi's voice rang out along with the sound of the bell.

Upon hearing this, all the powerful members of the Demonic Path Alliance changed their expressions, put down their current affairs, and rushed towards the central military hall.
