Mortal: The Heavenly Spiritual Root that Begins from the Demonic Path

However, in the Golden Drum Plain, after Yi Jue left that day, the seven Jindan sects had completely retreated, but the foundation-building cultivators and hundreds of thousands of Qi-training cultivators were all gathered in the Golden Drum Plain.

Even though the Jindan cultivators had won a great victory, they could only rely on their advantages to gradually erode the huge army of cultivators.

Although the rebellion of Lingshou Mountain caused the seven sects to lose many strategic routes, the battlefield is not as simple as fighting alone. Although they have the advantage, if they want to expand the results of the battle and exchange for military merits and resources, each step takes time.

The Nascent Soul cultivators of the seven sects had lost the battle and had announced that they would not take action anymore. The Jindan cultivators had also lost in the melee, so it was inevitable that there was no one to take charge of the situation on the battlefield.

As a result, many monks thought about escaping. Whenever the country was destroyed and the family was ruined, and the war situation was unfavorable, there would always be a group of talented people standing up.

It is precisely because such people continue to emerge, and because a tough war will consume too much war potential, that this war is slowly advancing in this form of overwhelming momentum.

The role played by the Jindan cultivators in this was nothing more than killing some outstanding foundation-building cultivators that emerged in the battle, and a large number of Jindan cultivators went deep into the Kingdom of Yue to hunt down the seven sects of Jindan. Although Yun Lu was a little anxious, he also knew that at this time all he could do was to wait quietly for the collapse of the Kingdom of Yue.

Finally, in Jinguyuan, where there were no Jindan cultivators among the seven sects, they chose to retreat after leaving behind more than 40,000 corpses of Qi-refining cultivators in half a year.

This retreat officially means that the battle of Jinguyuan has come to an end. The strategy of keeping the enemy out has failed. What the seven sects will face next will be a full-scale invasion by the demons.

At this time, several Nascent Soul cultivators of the Demonic Path who were in charge of the war were chatting in a hall of the Seven Sects.

Yunlu sat at the head of the group, holding an amber wine bottle in her hand, leaning back on a recliner, and said with a smile,

"The Demonic Path lost more than 40,000 middle and lower-level cultivators, and the seven sects lost more than 50,000. The bodies of 100,000 cultivators are buried here."

"The initial strategy has been reached, but it took too long. Next, the various factions of Yue Kingdom need to fight quickly and decisively. Wei Wuya seems to have made some moves, so we need to seize the fruits of victory as soon as possible."

The leader of the Ghost Spirit Sect, Wang Tiansheng, had already returned to the Ghost Spirit Sect and was not here at the moment. The Ghost Spirit Sect was currently occupied by a Nascent Soul cultivator in a black robe. Hearing this, he said in a hoarse voice,
"Before the Sect Master left, he said that in the war against the Kingdom of Yue, everything will be decided by the Master."

The consul of the Demon Flame Sect also echoed. These two were the main forces that were trying to take advantage of the State of Yue, so they naturally hoped that the war would end as soon as possible.

An old man from the Tiansha Sect, who also had a good appearance, but a murderous look between his eyebrows. He was also in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. Upon hearing this, he immediately spoke,

"My Tiansha Sect had previously agreed to jointly attack the Kingdom of Yue. Now we have fulfilled our promise. Now we should divide our forces to attack the Kingdom of Yuanwu."

“Although Yuanwu Kingdom’s Nascent Soul cultivators are not as good as Yue Kingdom’s, it also has three major sects, so it will take some effort.”

Yun Lu looked at the monks from the three sects who were already eager to make a move, and said helplessly,
"That's all."

"Although the Demonic Path had previously made a resolution and demarcated the area, how much you can get ultimately depends on your ability."

"Since Daoist Fellow Shaxin has decided this, we won't say much. We will divide our forces from today on."

Yunlu was obviously well prepared. When this moment really came, she still looked calm. This invasion by the demons was, on the one hand, to seize resources, expand territory, and reduce the pressure on the Tianluo Kingdom.

But on the other hand, fully consuming the strength of independent cultivators and affiliated forces is also part of the plan. Although the six sects of the Demonic Path occupied Tianluo, Tianluo still had a large number of affiliated forces. The powerful ones, such as Huangquan Valley, were given a piece of territory, and the medium-sized forces were incorporated into the army to serve as the backbone and constantly consume their potential.

For the weak ones like independent cultivators, they will be forced to join the battlefield, lured with benefits and pressured with power. If they grow up, they can be used, and if they die, they die.

Only in this way can the six sects of the Demonic Path firmly occupy the basic base of the Demonic Path and enjoy vast resources.

The monks of his own sect are the real foundation. Thinking of this, Yun Lu thought of the Yellow Spring Valley again.

"It was not easy for that old man Xuanming in Huangquan Valley to pass away, but Yue Ming made a breakthrough in such a short time. His ghost is really lingering."

"And that Yi Jue!"

"However, you are sensible. Just occupy Jiang State. There are powerful enemies all around. Let's see how you develop."

"However, my disciple was fighting with Feng Tianyang and forcing old man Qiong to retreat. How come he is nowhere to be seen?"

"I want to see how far my disciple has grown."

As he spoke, regardless of the fact that everyone was still discussing other things, a jade bead flew out, and then a cultivator received the order and went to Tianshu Immortal City.

When Yi Tianxing saw the people coming from the Hehuan Sect, he knew that Yi Jue was about to set off again. After all, Yi Jue had made a name for himself, and no one would think of giving up such a powerful chess piece.

After informing Yi Jue through the secret method, Yi Tianxing continued to arrange the affairs of Ziwei Immortal City in full swing.

According to the plan, this city will serve as the base camp of Huangquan Valley in the future. As the real core of the thirty-six immortal cities, Yi Tianxing naturally cannot be careless.

Not only that, the core of this city also needs a fourth-level peak spiritual vein. Now in Jiangdu, the spiritual vein is only at the fourth level. During this period of time, Yi Tianxing has arranged countless methods of nourishing the veins.

In the end, Dan Mozi, who had broken into the Nascent Soul stage, quietly showed up. With his supreme cultivation in the art of formations, he gathered three fourth-order spirit veins to form a Three Talents Gathering Yin Formation, and only then did he accelerate a core Yin vein to the peak of the fourth order.

There were rumors outside that Dan Mozi, the Alchemy and Formation Master of the Hehuan Sect, who had supposedly fallen, not only had not died, but had also quietly broken through to the Nascent Soul stage on the Biling Island.

But now Xuanming is mainly responsible for guarding Biling Island, while Yue Ming went to the Chaos Star Sea and is responsible for guarding the Chaos Star Sea.

Dan Mozi was hiding in the Huangquan Valley, responsible for guarding the valley. Only Soul Eater followed the six sects of the Demonic Path to start contributing as the war started. This was also part of the conditions.

Dan Mozi could not stay for long, and left quietly after the formation was fully set up. Therefore, Yi Tianxing was so busy with trivial matters that he had no time to practice. If Dan Mozi had not trained many alchemists in Huangquan Valley over the years, and if the Chaos Star Sea had not been rich in resources, the two sides' alchemy concepts would have collided and produced a lot of elixirs.

I'm afraid Yi Tianxing's cultivation has long stagnated.

Even so, when Yi Jue returned to Tianshu Immortal City, he still did not see the busy Yi Tianxing. He just received Yu Jue's message, and after a short rest, he headed non-stop towards Jinguyuan. (End of this chapter)
