Chapter 190 It’s better to seek help from others than from yourself
When Bai Zichen explained the results of the soul search, both Qi Yue and Long Long were filled with unease, as if a heavy weight was pressing on their chests.
As elders of the Qingfeng Sect, they could naturally sense the impending storm from the slightest clues.
Even a sect would struggle to cope with just the Ghost Spirit Sect alone.
If the Blood Demon Sect were to join, it would truly be a catastrophe.
The Blood God True Man's fearsome reputation is too great; the number of Core Formation level forces destroyed by him is far more than a handful.
In just over a century since its founding, the Blood Demon Sect has surpassed two powerful demonic sects with deep foundations and who have produced Nascent Soul True Monarchs, becoming the leader of the demonic path in Liang Kingdom.
Even if Blood God True Man cannot personally take action, there are quite a few evil giants and unorthodox bigwigs who have joined his ranks over the years.
If just two or three Core Formation level guest elders are sent to aid the Ghost Spirit Sect, it will worsen the already unfavorable situation of the Green Maple Sect.
It is highly likely that this became the final straw that broke the camel's back for Qingfeng Sect.
“Since we received the news in advance, we have room to maneuver… Master is on good terms with several True Persons of the Holy Lotus Sect. If we ask the sect to intervene, the Blood Demon Sect should not dare to interfere too much.”
Qi Yue had mixed feelings. He originally thought that this sect mission was just a small test of his skills after leaving the mountain, but he did not expect it to expose many of his shortcomings.
Even the seemingly powerful and indestructible Yuan Yang Divine Thunder can only be effective if it can actually hit a person.
Compared to Junior Brother Bai, my combat experience is far inferior.
In a short period of time, Qi Yue's state of mind had changed considerably since he left the mountain gate.
As the true ruler of Liang Kingdom, the Holy Lotus Sect acts in ways that are both righteous and wicked, without any obvious bias.
Moreover, they do not suppress cultivators within their sphere of influence who are expected to reach the Nascent Soul stage; on the contrary, they support and befriend them.
It seems that their attention has never been limited to the Liang Kingdom.
Just like the previous great battle between the righteous and the demonic paths, we initially ignored it.
The war affected too many sects and impacted several states. Many places were scorched by the war, or covered in ice and snow, and the landscape was completely transformed.
Even demonic fire scorched it, and malevolent energy soared to the sky.
The spiritual veins were defiled, the earth's veins were destroyed, and many places were turned into dangerous and desolate places.
Because of this, the Holy Lotus Sect intervened to mediate and stop this seemingly endless war.
“That’s right. No matter how powerful the Blood Demon Sect is, the Holy Lotus Sect still calls the shots in Liang Kingdom.”
Long Long nodded slightly, the worry on her face fading somewhat.
"I have been guarding the market for several years and have had several dealings with my senior brothers from the Five Elements Sect... The Five Elements Sect has been favored by the Great Dao for nearly a hundred years, with two elders successfully forming their cores in succession, and four members of the Five Elements Peak are already taken."
“If it really comes down to a life-or-death situation, given the friendship between our two families, the Five Elements Sect will definitely send one or two Core Formation cultivators to help us.”
Hundreds of years ago, the Five Elements Sect was weak, with no Five Elements Peak Masters, and its lineage almost ended.
It was the Core Formation Ancestor of Qingfeng Sect who traveled hundreds of thousands of miles to the scene and first took action to repel the nearby cultivators who coveted the Five Elements Sect's foundation.
He also took a risk and killed a third-tier demon king, taking its inner core and adding a fake core cultivator to the Five Elements Sect.
After doing all this, the founder of the Qingfeng Sect quietly departed, asking for nothing in return.
The Five Elements Sect survived its most difficult period precisely because of the combat power of that fake Core Formation cultivator.
Therefore, Longlong was confident that when the critical moment came, he could use a secret method to send a message for help, and the cultivators of the Five Elements Sect would surely arrive.
"Report this matter back and let the senior brothers discuss it and make a decision..."
Bai Zichen did not respond, turning his gaze back to the corpse of Mo Changzhi.
Both of them harbored the idea that external intervention could resolve the crisis.
However, the Holy Lotus School may ignore it or only issue a brief reprimand.
Judging from the soul-searching footage, Blood God True Man is not alone; he has a major demonic sect backing him up.
The extent of the Holy Lotus Sect's rebuke of the Blood Demon Sect is questionable.
As for the Five Elements Sect, it is located far away in the Dian Kingdom.
It would take some time for them to arrive after receiving the news; distant water cannot quench an immediate fire.
It's better to rely on yourself than on others!
Mo Changzhi was only wearing a feather robe that shimmered with colorful clouds, which clearly indicated that he was no ordinary person.
The rest of the items turned to ashes.
Several clusters of primordial yang divine lightning gathered together, roaring and turning everything within a hundred feet in radius into dust.
Mo Changzhi's body had long been riddled with holes by the power of the divine thunder, but because of the special nature of the Hundred Fiend Blood Sea Great Art he cultivated, his blood never dried up, allowing him to cling to life.
This was the reason why he was still confident of escaping after witnessing Bai Zichen's sword qi thunderous realm and miraculous swordsmanship.
The worst outcome would be to be killed several more times and fall back to the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
As long as he has enough cultivators' essence blood to consume, it won't take more than a few years to restore his cultivation level.
Unexpectedly, he was first stunned by the moonlight that restrained the formless and invisible, and then he was hit head-on by five or six Yuan Yang Divine Lightning.
Qi Yue, filled with rage, attacked, eager to wash away his mistakes and shame, and almost completely drained the spiritual power from the Thunder Pearl.
Among the many divine lightnings in the cultivation world, the Primordial Yang Divine Lightning is the most effective against evil and filth, and is the nemesis of all negative forces.
Mo Changzhi's demonic blood evaporated and was completely consumed in the sea of thunder, without even having to use his life-or-death spell that burned his life essence.
If not a single drop of essence and blood remains in the body, how can one activate a spell that burns essence and blood?
"What a pity, the storage bags were all destroyed in the explosion..."
Although Mo Changzhi had given all his wealth to the Blood God True Man through the memories he had collected during the Soul Search, he still had three or five spiritual artifacts passed down from the Mo family in his possession.
And most importantly, the drop of Pure Spirit Jade Marrow that the Ghost Spirit Sect sent to the Mo family as a deposit to Mo Qianyuan for causing chaos in Black Mountain.
Bai Zichen knew that apart from magic treasure-level storage items, storage bags themselves did not have much protective power.
Once destroyed, all the items stored inside will be released from their restraints and vanish into the void, with no possibility of recovery.
"Take this corpse back to Senior Brother Liang as proof that our mission is complete... It can also serve as evidence that the Blood Demon Sect has already made a move against Black Mountain."
Bai Zichen rummaged through the superior storage bag he had obtained from Meng Shigui and found a body bag. This guy, taking advantage of the spacious storage space, threw all sorts of random things into it.
Boom!
A blood-red crystal slipped from Mo Changzhi's chest and fell to the ground. Bai Zichen picked it up and found it somewhat familiar; he seemed to have seen something similar before.
“The crystal that survived the bombardment of the Primordial Yang Divine Lightning must be a third-tier spiritual item. In addition, the feather robe is very likely the Rainbow Feather Robe, a spiritual artifact inherited by the Fire Phoenix Mo Clan… Do you two have any opinions on whether to convert it into spirit stones and share it among us?”
The spoils of war obtained during a mission belong to the individual disciple of the sect.
Bai Zichen held a blood-red crystal in one hand and a radiant feather robe in the other, looking calmly at the two.
"I contributed almost nothing to this mission; it was all thanks to Junior Brother Bai's superb swordsmanship that we were able to defeat the demonic cultivator... These two items are none of my business, so there's no need to ask for my opinion."
Qi Yue turned his back, stood with his hands behind his back, and did not take credit for killing Mo Changzhi with the Yuan Yang Divine Thunder.
Given his arrogance, his poor handling of the first half of the process, his hesitation and indecisiveness, and his failure to make any contribution are already major stains on his record.
In the end, Yuan Yang Divine Thunder made a contribution, but it only slightly redeemed the mistake. He didn't think he had made any great contribution.
In addition, as the only disciple of Ancestor Ge Cang, Qi Yue was not lacking in treasures, as can be seen from the spiritual artifact he previously summoned, which transformed into a towering divine tree.
"When I arrived, the demonic cultivators were already fleeing in panic, but I managed to stop them for a bit... Even Senior Brother Qi said he didn't do anything, so there's no need for me to say anything more."
Long Long spoke in a cold and indifferent tone, revealing no change in her emotions.
"These two items are your spoils of war, Junior Brother Bai, so there's no need to ask us. Anyway, the sect will distribute contribution points for killing demonic cultivators. If you feel I've taken too little, just give me a little face if I ever need your help in the future."
"In that case, it would be impolite of me to refuse."
Seeing that neither of them seemed to be faking it, Bai Zichen put away the feather robe and the blood-red crystal.
Poor Huofeng Mo clan, when Mo Qianyuan rebelled, more than half of the clan members either died or were exiled to the mines for lifelong hard labor.
Today, Mo Changzhi returned and carried out another massacre on Shuanghuan Mountain, killing two Foundation Establishment elders and over a hundred clansmen.
Seeing the demonic cultivators bow their heads and the battle cease, several cultivators from the Mo family came out to pay their respects.
The elderly cultivator, trembling, knelt down in deep worship with the help of several younger disciples.
"The demonic cultivator has been killed. You should collect the bodies of your clansmen and bury them as soon as possible."
Bai Zichen sighed inwardly. If the demonic cultivator who came had not been Mo Changzhi, but another disciple under the Blood God True Man, the Mo family would not have suffered such a great loss.
With two Foundation Establishment cultivators and a second-tier top-grade Heavenly Blazing Fire Formation, what does it matter how unfathomable the Hundred Fiends Blood Sea Great Art is?
As long as the defending cultivators are not careless or negligent, there is absolutely no possibility of the formation being breached.
But it was Mo Changzhi who came. As the direct descendant of the Fire Phoenix Mo Clan, he was being groomed to be the next clan leader and knew his family's formation entry and exit methods like the back of his hand.
He even knew the characteristics, strengths, and weaknesses of his two uncles' martial arts techniques.
With the loss of its only two pillars, the decline of the Fire Phoenix Mo Clan was inevitable.
As long as no new Foundation Establishment cultivators emerge, the Fire Phoenix Mo Clan will soon become a thing of the past, just another ordinary cultivation family in Black Mountain.
Naturally, they cannot occupy a second-tier spiritual vein like Shuanghuan Mountain.
Upon returning to the mountain gate, they handed over Mo Changzhi's body and told Senior Brother Liang Yu about the results of the soul search.
It was clear that even the usually composed Senior Brother Liang Yu was somewhat distracted and appeared worried.
The name "Blood God True Man" carries immense power and intimidation.
Bai Zichen is alright, perhaps because he has already offended even bigger enemies and has developed immunity.
No matter how strong you, Blood God True Man, can you compare to the transformed Great Demon Dragon Lord?
Since it's impossible for them to reach Black Mountain in a short time, even the most numerous and powerful enemies will only create a sense of urgency in his heart, not cause him to lose his composure or change color.
But in the eyes of his fellow disciples, it became irrefutable proof that Bai Zichen was sincere in his flying sword and undisturbed by external things.
Even the proud Qi Yue admitted in a private conversation with a friend: "I heard that even with such a formidable enemy in front of him, the Blood God True Man remained calm and composed... In terms of temperament, I am far inferior to Junior Brother Bai."
Bai Zichen neither knew nor cared about these fellow disciples' evaluations; he only knew that this sect mission had brought him considerable contribution points.
