Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

"Just make your decision."

Lin Bai answered, then casually threw a "Daluo Lingdan" into his mouth and began to refine it.

After practicing for this period of time, Lin Bai gradually adapted to this practice mode, which also benefited from his ability to do two things at the same time.

Generally, after swallowing and refining the Daluo Lingdan, one can usually speak and walk like a normal person.

After getting Lin Bai's permission, Li Guxian set his sights on the 'young man' Chen Yuan, looked around and asked:

"Since the Chunyang Sect wants to surrender, why are you the only one who came?"

"Where is the leader of the Chunyang Sect?"

"As for surrender, you probably can't make the decision if you come here alone."

The young man Chen Yuan seemed to have expected Li Guxian to say this, and the leader of the Chunyang Sect had also told him that if Li Guxian asked similar questions, he only needed to tell Li Guxian:

"Goddess Li Guxian, the master has returned to the mountain gate."

"After all, Goddess Li Guxian should know very well that the Chunyang Sect is not just ruled by the Sect Master. There are other powerful people and ancestors behind the scenes."

"Master, please return to the sect in advance to arrange other matters, so that it will be easier for Goddess Li Guxian and the warriors of the Nine Nether Demon Palace to take over the Chunyang Sect."

Li Guxian nodded thoughtfully. He understood what the leader of Chunyang Sect was doing.

"All right."

"On behalf of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, I accept the surrender of the Pure Yang Sect!"

Li Guxian accepted the surrender letter, stepped forward and shouted loudly:

"Stop it!"

"The Chunyang Sect has surrendered!"

"All warriors of the Chunyang Sect put down their weapons and wait for your fate in the nearby mountains!"

After the voice was heard, the battlefield, which was originally in the midst of fierce fighting, suddenly became quiet.

The warriors from Phoenix Valley and Jiuyou Demon Palace also withdrew from the battlefield and looked coldly at the bewildered Chunyang Sect warriors.

The young man, Chen Yuan, stood up at this moment and said to the Pure Yang Sect warriors:

"The Sect Master has issued an order for the Pure Yang Sect to surrender to the Nine Nether Demon Palace."

"All Pure Yang Sect warriors must follow the instructions of Goddess Li Guxian and go to the nearby mountains to await further instructions!"

The war has reached this point, and more than half of the four to five million elite disciples of Chunyang Sect have been killed or injured, and the remaining Chunyang Sect warriors have lost all their fighting spirit.

When they heard that Chunyang Sect had chosen to surrender, they felt not angry but fortunate instead.

Because they have discovered that they have been surrounded by the Jiuyou Demon Palace and Phoenix Valley. There are as many as six or seven million warriors in the Jiuyou Demon Palace and Phoenix Valley, and it is impossible for them to break out.

If they continue to fight, death will be waiting for them!

Therefore, when they heard that Chunyang Sect had chosen to surrender, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and many warriors took the lead and walked to the nearby mountains to wait.

Once one person starts to act, countless warriors will follow suit.

In the blink of an eye, millions of warriors headed towards the nearby mountains.

Under Li Guxian's arrangement, the warriors from Jiuyou Demon Palace and Phoenix Valley surrounded the entire mountain range to prevent the warriors from Chunyang Sect from taking any action on their own.

"Brother Di Zi, let's go to the mountain gate of Chunyang Sect!"

After Li Guxian arranged the battlefield ahead, he dealt with the Chunyang Sect warriors and ordered two warriors in the Supreme Dao Fruit realm to guard the battlefield.

She and Lin Bai took the other Supreme Dao Fruit Realm warriors and Chaos Dao Fruit Realm warriors, as well as several masters from Phoenix Valley, to the gate of Chunyang Sect.

Along the way, there was a 'young man' named Chen Yuan leading the way, and there was no further obstruction.

After passing through the sixth line of defense, you arrive at the Chunyang Sect’s mountain gate. This is the Chunyang Sect’s seventh line of defense.

At this moment, the Chunyang Sect has completely opened up the 'seventh line of defense' and no longer sets up defenses.

When Lin Bai, Li Guxian and others arrived in front of the seventh line of defense, they suddenly heard an earth-shaking roar coming from the mountain gate of Chunyang Sect.

Then, an extremely powerful force destroyed most of the buildings inside the Chunyang Sect’s mountain gate, and the force turned into a shock wave that roared towards the outside of the mountain.

Lin Bai, Li Guxian and others who were standing in front of the Chunyang Sect's mountain gate all changed their expressions.

Elder Wen and two warriors at the Supreme Dao Fruit Realm quickly appeared in front of Lin Bai and Li Guxian and blocked this force.

"This is……"

"The breath of a great master!"

Elder Wen and the two warriors at the Supreme Dao Fruit Realm immediately sensed that this power came from a person with great supernatural powers.

then.

Lin Bai closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his black pupils had turned blood red. He looked towards the gate of Chunyang Sect again.

Then I saw three figures standing in mid-air confronting each other.

The terrifying aura of power emanating from them was like a sharp blade, lingering around them. When Lin Bai looked over, his eyes were stung by the sharp blade.

Before Lin Bai could figure out what was happening, he heard a loud roar coming from the mountains again.

Immediately afterwards, the surrounding void began to shatter, and dozens of figures walked out of the void together, directly sucking the crazy master with great supernatural powers who was confronting the Saint Elder Duanmu Peng into the void, and he disappeared without a trace.

Those dozens of figures came very quickly, but also left very quickly, and quickly disappeared into the demon world.

Saint Elder Duanmu Peng turned his head slightly and glanced outside the mountain gate of Chunyang Sect. He seemed to see Lin Bai and nodded twice.

He seemed to have said something to the leader of Chunyang Sect, and then he walked back into the void with another powerful person.

"Let's go."

"Things in there are over."

Lin Bai restrained the power of his demon pupil and said something to Li Guxian. Then everyone in the Nine Nether Demon Palace walked towards the mountain gate of Chunyang Sect.

The gate of the Chunyang Sect, which was originally considered a paradise on earth, was now turned into ruins by the means of several powerful masters, with most of the area within the mountain range turned into ruins, and countless buildings collapsed to the ground.

Li Guxian and other warriors in the Supreme Dao Fruit Realm did not need Lin Bai to explain much. They naturally understood what had happened inside the Chunyang Sect's mountain gate.

It must have been a confrontation between two people with great supernatural powers, and the result was self-evident: the Nine Nether Demon Palace won.

The Saint Elder Duanmu Peng had already discovered that Lin Bai, Li Guxian and others had arrived at Chunyang Sect, so he took the initiative to take Lei Qin and leave Chunyang Sect first.

When Lin Bai, Li Guxian, Old Wen, the leader of Phoenix Valley and many other masters arrived at the mountain gate of Chunyang Sect, they only found the leader of Chunyang Sect and several elders sitting on the ground in a daze.

The leader of Chunyang Sect saw Li Guxian and Lin Bai approaching from afar, and immediately stood up with several other elders to greet them.

"Meet Emperor Lin Bai."

"Meet the goddess Li Guxian."

Li Guxian stepped forward and nodded with a chuckle:

"Uncle Shen, there's no need to be so polite. Everything is over. We are still a family."

The leader of the Chunyang Sect chuckled and nodded, then asked Li Guxian another question:

"I wonder how the Demon Palace plans to arrange us?"

Li Guxian and Lin Bai looked at each other and announced:

"The Chunyang Sect must return to the Daomo Palace, but we will not force the Chunyang Sect to destroy its current mountain gate."

"The Chunyang Sect can still choose to build a mountain gate here and train direct disciples."

"The Demon Palace will take away most of the territory and borders of the Chunyang Sect, and of course will also ensure the foundation of the Chunyang Sect."

"From now on, the Chunyang Sect cannot accept more than one million outer disciples, no more than 500,000 inner disciples, and no more than 30,000 core disciples."

“…”

Li Guxian informed the leader of Chunyang Sect of the statement she had already made.

Upon hearing this, the leader of Chunyang Sect had a bitter look on his face, and several other Chunyang Sect elders were angry, and they all obviously couldn't accept it.

The arrangements made by the Jiuyou Demon Palace for the Chunyang Sect undoubtedly fundamentally weakened the overall strength of the Chunyang Sect.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

First, the reduction of territory.

The Jiuyou Demon Palace will take away most of the Chunyang Sect's territory and borders, leaving only dozens of nearby Qianzhou, mainly around the capital's territory, to the Chunyang Sect.

The reduction of a large amount of territory and borders means that the Chunyang Sect has less access to resources.

Without enough resources, it is impossible to cultivate a large number of strong people.

Second, there is a limit on the number of apprentices that can be accepted.

The Jiuyou Demon Palace has issued a clear order to limit the number of disciples that can enter the Chunyang Sect, and will no longer give the Chunyang Sect the opportunity to expand rapidly.

The number of outer disciples cannot exceed one million, the number of inner disciples cannot exceed five hundred thousand, and the number of core disciples cannot exceed thirty thousand.

Third, tribute must be paid to the Jiuyou Demon Palace every hundred years.

As for the tribute list, the Jiuyou Demon Palace has not yet drawn it up and will release it to the Chunyang Sect later.

…

After stating a series of conditions, the leader of the Chunyang Sect sighed and had no choice but to accept them.

As the completely defeated party, Chunyang Sect lost the qualifications to negotiate with Jiuyou Demon Palace, and it no longer had the bargaining chips to negotiate with Jiuyou Demon Palace.

Therefore, the conditions they could obtain were far worse than the conditions Lin Bai promised to Phoenix Valley.

Although Phoenix Valley also has to submit to the Demon Palace and obey the dispatch and arrangements of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, at least Phoenix Valley has maintained its current state.

There was no cession of Qianzhou, no restrictions on accepting disciples, and one had to pay tribute to the Jiuyou Demon Palace every hundred years and obey the arrangements and dispatches of the Demon Palace.

Compared with the Chunyang Sect, the conditions obtained by Phoenix Valley are really too generous.

The leader of the Chunyang Sect just showed a slight bitter smile and agreed to the conditions of the Jiuyou Demon Palace.

After all, this was something he had already expected.

The leader of Chunyang Sect knew very well that the time when they had the most chips was when they destroyed Qiye Divine Sect.

At that time, if the Chunyang Sect was willing to negotiate terms with the Jiuyou Demon Palace, it would definitely be able to obtain the same conditions and treatment as the Phoenix Valley now.

But now, as the complete loser, Chunyang Sect has obviously lost all opportunities and all bargaining chips, and has no way to negotiate terms with Jiuyou Demon Palace anymore.

No matter how harsh the conditions proposed by the Jiuyou Demon Palace are, the Chunyang Sect must accept them.

Because once they refuse, waiting for Chunyang Sect will definitely lead to death.

Currently, the armies of Jiuyou Demon Palace and Phoenix Valley have besieged two to three million elite disciples of Chunyang Sect in the mountains. Once the leader of Chunyang Sect refuses the conditions, Jiuyou Demon Palace and Phoenix Valley will immediately massacre all the disciples of Chunyang Sect.

As for the restriction on recruiting disciples mentioned by Li Guxian just now, "the number of outer disciples shall not exceed one million", but there are currently three to four million disciples.

In fact, it is very easy to solve. In the next hundred or thousand years, Chunyang Sect will not be allowed to accept disciples from outside.

The remaining three to four million elite disciples will become the vital "direct bloodline" of the Chunyang Sect for a long time to come.

Of course.

Li Guxian will not sit idly by and watch Chunyang Sect and Phoenix Valley recover day by day. She will definitely have other arrangements for Chunyang Sect and Phoenix Valley next.

"We only took a portion of the treasures inside and outside the Chunyang Sect, and most of them were left to the Chunyang Sect."

As he spoke, Li Guxian took out a thick book from his storage bag, which was filled with all kinds of materials and treasures.

"Uncle Shen, please tell the warriors of the Chunyang Sect to go to the treasury and take out all the materials and treasures on this list and hand them over to the Demon Palace to take away!"

The leader of Chunyang Sect glanced at the book which was as long as a finger. Li Guxian actually called it a "list"?

Have you ever seen a list thicker than a book?

The leader of the Chunyang Sect had a haggard and tired look on his face, but he opened the book and glanced at it casually. He was shocked by the contents.

Most of the treasures inside are very important to high-level warriors, and determine whether high-level warriors can break through the realm of cultivation.

And now that the Jiuyou Demon Palace wants to take these treasures away, it will undoubtedly cut off the resources of the Chunyang Sect for cultivating high-level warriors.

From now on, it is likely that it will be difficult for Chunyang Sect to cultivate multiple warriors at the Chaos Dao Fruit or Supreme Dao Fruit realms.

"no."

After taking a look, the leader of Chunyang Sect decisively said to Li Guxian:

"I can't hand these over."

"These resources are the lifeblood of the Chunyang Sect. If we hand over these treasures, the Chunyang Sect will be destroyed!"

Li Guxian had obviously already expected that the leader of the Chunyang Sect would refuse, so she chuckled and replied:

"I knew Uncle Shen would refuse, so I can give Chunyang Sect a choice."

"Either the Chunyang Sect hands over these treasures."

"Or the Chunyang Sect should lead its troops to fight right now."

Go to war? ... The leader of the Chunyang Sect frowned and asked, "Who to fight?"

Li Guxian chuckled and said, "Who else could it be? Who else in the Seven Nights Divine Sect's territory could pose a threat to the Nine Nether Demon Palace?"

The leader of Chunyang Sect immediately came to his senses and realized that Li Guxian was talking about Fantian Sect and Baitian Sect.

"The Chunyang Sect just went through a bloody battle and is now severely damaged. If we go out to fight now, I'm afraid we will definitely fail."

Li Guxian smiled and shook his head and said, "Although the Chunyang Sect was defeated by the Nine Nether Demon Palace and Phoenix Valley, the Chunyang Sect still has two to three million elite disciples!"

"It is enough to fight against the frontal forces of Fantian Sect and Baitian Sect."

After finishing speaking, Li Guxian deliberately walked to the side of the Chunyang Sect's leader, lowered his voice, and said in his ear:

"Uncle Shen, this is for your own good."

"Your Chunyang Sect still has two to three million elite disciples. If you don't deal with them, do you think the Demon Palace leaders will be relieved?"

Lin Bai immediately understood Li Guxian's idea. She wanted the leader of Chunyang Sect to make a choice between "the interests of high-level warriors" and "the interests of low-level warriors"!
