Just as the old patriarch forced me to my death, I achieved the unity of Dao and fruition.

The Battle of Bailianchuan silenced the entire Western Wilderness.

This battle was not a fight between sects in the Western Wilderness over mineral veins and treasures, nor was it a melee between several cultivation families over a few spiritual herbs.

It was a real war between humans and transvestites.

The Western Wilderness Alliance integrated the seven major sects, small and medium-sized forces, cultivation families, and the alliance of rogue cultivators, mobilizing a total of 36,000 Sky Patrol Guards, more than 400 Sky Patrol Generals, and 17 Nascent Soul Supreme Venerables.

On the demon side, the Mountain-Shaking Demon Lord led more than ten Nascent Soul Demon Kings, along with hundreds of thousands of demon beasts, and charged all the way from Black Wind Ridge into Hundred Refinements River.

The moment the two forces collided, the mountains on both sides of the Bailian River were smashed into three sections.

Earth fire erupted, rivers changed course, and spiritual energy for thousands of miles was stirred into turbulent currents.

When one of the independent cultivators who had been watching from a distance returned, he only said one sentence.

"That wasn't a major battle; it was like a corner of the sky had collapsed."

The Sky Patrol Guards formed a grand formation, with tens of thousands of Foundation Establishment cultivators connecting their magical powers, their spiritual light as vast as the sea.

The Heavenly Generals, wielding their magical treasures, suppressed the demonic tide.

The seven Nascent Soul Grandmasters sat high in the sky, tearing apart the clouds when they made their move.

The most astonishing battle was between Gu Daojun and the Mountain-Shaking Demon Lord.

No one dared to approach; they could only see it from a thousand miles away. Above the sky, a mysterious grotto-heaven pressed down, and the Black Water River surged backward.

On the other side, a ten-thousand-foot-tall golden-haired demonic ape swung its massive ironwood club, causing the mountains to tremble.

Each collision was like two stars colliding in mid-air.

Some people saw the Mountain-Shaking Demon Lord smash three thousand-foot-tall mountains with a single blow.

Some people also saw Gu Daojun standing with his hands behind his back, and the vortex of Guixu behind him swirled and swallowed most of the demonic energy in the sky.

Finally, the Mountain-Shaking Demon Lord let out a long roar and led his demon horde back to the western borderlands.

The Western Wilderness Alliance won, though the victory was fierce, with many Sky Patrol Guards killed or wounded and over a hundred Sky Patrol Generals lost.

Some small cultivation families and sects almost wiped out their younger generation, but it was all worth it, as the demon race was driven back.

After this battle, the prestige of the entire Western Wilderness Dao Alliance and Gu Daojun reached its peak in the entire Western Wilderness cultivation world.

The forces that were initially reluctant have now become obedient.

Mining should continue when necessary.

Resources should be handed over when they are due.

Disciples should be sent out as appropriate.

After all, everyone understands one thing: the demon race is truly aiming to annihilate the entire Western Wilderness cultivation world.

In the entire Western Wilderness cultivation world, only the Western Wilderness Dao Alliance can withstand the demon race.

It's only right to hand over more spirit stones and resources.

Within the Xuan Yang Sect, the ledgers of the Demon-Suppressing Treasury are growing thicker day by day.

The roster of the Sky Patrol Guards is getting longer and longer.

The various factions, which were originally at odds with each other, have now been forcibly united under the pressure of the demon race.

On the surface, it was to protect the Western Wilderness people.

In fact, everything was operating according to the Dao Alliance system established by Gu Changjin.

Everything proceeded smoothly, and the entire Western Wilderness cultivation world was very satisfied.

The demon race wasn't too dissatisfied either.

At least things are still under control.

The Mountain-Shaking Demon Lord did not actually fight his way through the Western Wilderness.

They fought a major battle and then retreated to the border region.

The Western Wilderness human race was not completely wiped out, and the Central Continent's Great Luo Heaven Domain will not send powerful figures to investigate the sudden extinction of the Western Wilderness for the time being.

The battle was brutal, yet strangely, many behind the scenes found it all acceptable.

……

Deep in Black Wind Ridge.

Inside a demon palace hidden underground.

The silver-eyed ancient ape envoy sat on a stone chair, gently tapping it, his eyes filled with contemplation.

He already knew the outcome of the Battle of Bailianchuan.

The Mountain-Shaking Demon Lord retreated, and Gu Changjin won.

The Western Wilderness Alliance has now firmly established itself.

This should have been troublesome.

But what he was really thinking about at that moment was not the battle itself.

It's something else entirely.

Not long ago, the Taoist of Ten Thousand Bones sent a message.

A white bone wolf clan cultivator named Bai Xuanyou appeared beside Gu Changjin. He was at the late Nascent Soul stage and had become the vice leader of the Western Wilderness Dao Alliance.

The Taoist of Ten Thousand Bones suspected that it was a spy planted by the Holy Monarch's lineage next to Gu Changjin.

The silver-eyed ancient ape had thought the same thing.

He even felt that the Holy Emperor's plan was so profound that even he, the envoy from the Western Wilderness, was unaware of it.

But now, the demon race's upper echelons have responded.

The Holy Monarch's lineage did not plant any White Bone Wolf Clan spies around Gu Changjin.

No.

These two words were like a thorn piercing the heart of the silver-eyed ancient ape.

If it wasn't arranged by the Holy Lord, then whose person is Bai Xuanyou?

The demon race is not limited to the lineage of the Holy King.

Ancestral Hall?

The remnants of the Ancient Demon Court?

Or is it some reclusive demon lord who has made his move in the Western Wilderness?

The more the silver-eyed ape thought about it, the deeper its brow furrowed.

The Mountain-Shaking Demon Lord suddenly appeared.

Bai Xuanyou appeared beside Gu Changjin.

The Ten Thousand Bones Daoist of the Hundred Demons Sect was promoted to vice leader by Gu Changjin.

The Western Wilderness Alliance appears to be a human race consolidating its power, but surprisingly, two members of the White Bone Wolf Clan have entered its core.

Is this just a coincidence, or is someone orchestrating this from the beginning?

The silver-eyed ancient ape closed its eyes and sat quietly for a long time.

Inside the Demon Palace, only the sound of burning subterranean fire could be heard.

At one point, he suddenly opened his eyes.

"No, no!"

"The key issue isn't Bai Xuanyou."

"It wasn't a mountain-shaking demon lord that appeared out of nowhere."

"It's Gu Changjin, yes! It's him!"

All the changes started with this person.

The Western Wilderness was originally very peaceful, with the seven sects keeping each other in check, the demon race secretly lurking, and the Crimson Abyss Secret Realm continuing to slumber.

Everything was within the Holy Ruler's arrangement and also within his monitoring range.

But Gu Changjin suddenly became a Nascent Soul cultivator and, under the pretext of the demon race's unusual activities, established the Western Wilderness Alliance.

Everyone initially thought the strange movements of the demon race were just an excuse, but unexpectedly, the Mountain-Shaking Demon Lord suddenly appeared, turning the strange movements of the demon race into a real event.

Then suddenly, Bai Xuanyou, a member of the White Bone Demon Clan, appeared and became the vice leader of the Western Wilderness Dao Alliance.

Everything seems to revolve around... Gu Changjin, who suddenly achieved the Divine Transformation Realm.

The silver-eyed ancient ape's gaze darkened.

"A golden elixir whose lifespan is about to end."

"In a short period of time, he formed his Nascent Soul, transformed into a Deity, and gained control of the Western Wilderness."

"What a coincidence!"

At first, he only regarded Gu Changjin as a newly promoted Nascent Soul cultivator in the Western Wilderness.

Now it seems that it may not be so simple.

Is there someone standing behind Gu Changjin?

Or perhaps he himself is a pawn in a deeper scheme by one side?

The silver-eyed ancient ape slowly rose; he had to see it for himself.

Let's take a look at this Gu Daojun and see what kind of person he really is.

Take a look at Bai Xuanyou next to him, see if he is really a member of the White Bone Demon Wolf Clan.

Let's also see who made the first move in this suddenly chaotic game of chess in the Western Wilderness.

He donned a black robe, and his figure gradually blended into the darkness.

"Gu Changjin".

"I'd like to see that."

"Whose side are you on?"
