Staying in the sect, controlling beasts and cultivating immortals

As those little black hands continued to gather around the old man again, the old man gradually took control of the situation around him.

However, Yu Changsheng's sword energy was already within reach.

"not good!"

When the old man felt Yu Changsheng's sword energy, he was immediately frightened like an ant on a hot pan.

The threat posed to him by that sword energy was simply terrifying.

But it was too late to dodge now.

The old man could only keep mobilizing new black hands to form a wall to resist.

However, Yu Changsheng's sword energy instantly melted the old man's defense like cutting tofu.

What followed was the boundless sword energy that instantly split the old man into two before the old man could react.

He was killed instantly by the terrifying power of the Taichu Kaitian Sword.

On the other side, Chen Xueqing also defeated her opponent, and that man immediately used some means to escape.

Yu Changsheng and the other man did not choose to chase and kill them, but deliberately let one of them escape.

As for the remaining two people who were entangled by Yu Changsheng's beast.

With the addition of Yu Changsheng and Chen Xueqing, they were quickly defeated.

But Yu Changsheng did not kill these two people.

Two people must be left alive.

The two men knew a lot, and they couldn't escape from Yu Changsheng's dark domain.

In desperation, they could only choose to surrender.

Yu Changsheng immediately placed restrictions on the two people, blocking their magical powers.

This is the way to withdraw the surrounding dark areas.

Afterwards, Yu Changsheng and Chen Xueqing immediately separated and began to interrogate the two men.

In the end, I got the identities of these two people.

As expected, these two people both belong to the Mengyao Holy Land.

And that old man was one of Ziying's subordinates.

This group of people were all gathered together by the old man.

But they are all monks from the Mengyao Holy Land.

Afterwards, Yu Changsheng inquired about the origin of the escaped monk. The monk's name was Huang Zhongxu, also a Divine Transformation monk, and belonged to the Mengyao Holy Land.

After clarifying all of this, Yu Changsheng and Chen Xueqing also had a private meeting.

"It looks like a big fish has indeed been attracted."

"But who is Ziying? It seems that he should have a very high status in Mengyao Holy Land."

Chen Xueqing also explained to Yu Changsheng the relationship between Mengyao Holy Land and Shadow Guard.

After hearing this, Yu Changsheng also said: "If this is the case, Ziying's status should be similar to that of Senior Lin Hao?"

Chen Xueqing shook her head and said, "There is still a big difference."

"Lin Hao is, after all, a guard assigned to me by the family. He only takes orders from me."

"And the Shadow Guards are directly under the command of the Mengyao Holy Land. Although they are also responsible for protecting the Holy Son, they also have a certain degree of monitoring and control."

"After all, the origins of the Holy Sons of Mengyao Holy Land are very complicated. Unlike the Holy Sons and Holy Daughters of Sea Beast Sky Island, they are all descendants of the elders of the major families of Sea Beast Sky Island."

Only then did Yu Changsheng understand a lot.

"It seems that this time it was indeed Huang Pu Yuanji who ordered the attack on me."

Chen Xueqing said: "With this opportunity, we can fight back justifiably."

"However, this matter still needs to be discussed with Grandpa, and then a countermeasure can be given."

Yu Changsheng nodded, knowing that what happened next would not be something he could easily interfere with.

But with Chen Xueqing mediating, it's basically not a problem.

After completing the mission they had received from the sect, the two immediately set off back to the Sixth Holy Land.

And here, Chen Xueqing also handed over the attackers to the Sixth Holy Land for handling.

Although, these people originally intended to attack Yu Changsheng.

But the problem is that Chen Xueqing is also among them.

Moreover, Yu Changsheng has already introduced himself and stated that they are from the Sixth Holy Land, but the other party is still relentless and wants to take action against them. That would be a serious matter.

After hearing the news, the top leaders of Sea Beast Island were also furious.

The saint of their Sea Beast Sky Island was actually attacked by people from the Mengyao Holy Land and almost died in the desert.

This doesn't sound like a trivial matter.

The Sea Beast Tiandao also immediately responded to Yining's request and sent envoys to negotiate with the people from the Mengyao Holy Land.

However, the Mengyao Holy Land flatly denied the incident and stated that it had no knowledge of it at all.

If the Sea Beast Tiandao continues to slander them, the Mengyao Holy Land will fight back.

However, this reaction from the Mengyao Holy Land had already been anticipated by the elders of the Sea Beast Island.

He also immediately took out the two captured Divine Transformation cultivators and confronted the people from Mengyao Holy Land.

With substantial evidence, the people from Mengyao Holy Land naturally could no longer refute, so they had to send people to find Sea Beast Island to resolve the matter.

On top of a tall tower.

Several monks quickly flew over to check and confirmed that there was no problem.

The two groups also slowly approached.

This tall tower was built at the junction of the two major forces, Mengyao Holy Land and Sea Beast Island. The scope of the forces here is relatively vague.

Hundreds of years ago, conflicts between the two major forces were inevitable, and battles of varying sizes broke out.

Later, in order to avoid a larger-scale conflict that would lead to serious consequences.

The leaders of both parties also built a high tower here and reached an agreement that the area near this place was the territory jointly owned by both parties.

No one is allowed to go further, and whoever breaks this agreement will be a criminal who disturbs the order.

Afterwards, any conflicts between the two forces were resolved here.

This time, the person sent by Sea Beast Tiandao was the great elder Qiu Tianji.

The person sent by Mengyao Holy Land was the Fire Elder Cai Yongyan.

The main elders of the Mengyao Holy Land are not distinguished by numbers like those of the Sea Beast Sky Island.

Instead, they are named according to different spiritual root attributes.

Cai Yongyan was an old man with white hair and beard, but his eyebrows were a rare red color, and his eyes were bright and he looked intimidating without even being angry.

After Cai Yongyan arrived at the tower, he sat on the main seat with a very arrogant look.

Qiu Tianji was also displeased when he saw this.

But he also sat opposite.

Before Qiu Tianji could speak, Cai Yongyan unexpectedly took the initiative to ask questions.

"What do you guys from Sea Beast Sky Island mean by this? Why are you arresting us?"

Qiu Tianji was even more stunned after hearing this. Arrest your people?
"Huh? You still have the nerve to ask why we arrested people?"

"Your dog bit the wrong person, are you going to blame me for beating or arresting the dog?"

Qiu Tianji was still unforgiving in his words and continued to mock.

After hearing this, Cai Yongyan clapped his hands and his face was full of anger.

"You're talking nonsense! Are you saying that the people from my Mengyao Holy Land are dogs?" Qiu Tianji sneered, "Dogs can't understand what people say, so of course I'm not talking about you!"

Cai Yongyan's face twitched with anger, "Very good, is this the attitude of you Sea Beast Island?"

Qiu Tianji also asked back: "Why? You, the people from Mengyao Holy Land, attacked the Saintess of my Sea Beast Island. Do you expect us to give you a good face?"

Cai Yongyan said: "Originally, my Mengyao Holy Land wanted to have a good negotiation with you. But your Sea Beast Sky Island has such an attitude. It seems that there is nothing to talk about!"

Faced with such remarks, Qiu Tianji sneered repeatedly.

Have a good discussion? Qiu Tianji was very clear about Cai Yongyan's attitude from the beginning.

The Mengyao Holy Land had no intention of negotiating properly at all.

He simply wanted to hold the initiative in his own hands, so that the sea beast Tiandao would be enraged first and flip the table, giving others an excuse to do so.

Qiu Tianji said: "Stop talking nonsense. You, Mengyao Holy Land, have no intention of apologizing at all. Do you really think that my Sea Beast Island is easy to bully?

Cai Yongyan said: "It seems that hundreds of years ago, my Mengyao Holy Land has not yet defeated you!"

Qiu Tianji said: "My Sea Beast Island has never been afraid of a small Mengyao Holy Land. Since you have no intention of negotiating, then don't talk! Let's see what's real in our hands!"

"As for those two people, haha, just wait to collect their bodies! Let's go!"

Qiu Tianji was also ready to take his men away.

"stop!"

However, Cai Yongyan still refused to give up.

He called out to Qiu Tianji directly.

"If you, Sea Beast Sky Island, are really sincere in negotiating with my Mengyao Holy Land, then hand the person over!"

This time, Qiu Tianji did not respond.

This Mengyao Holy Land really thinks of itself as a more powerful force than his Sea Beast Sky Island.

He is so domineering in his actions. He, the Sea Beast Tiandao, is not made of clay. How could he be bullied to this extent?

"Humph!"

Faced with such a request, Qiu Tianji had no intention of continuing to procrastinate and just walked away.

After Qiu Tianji left, Cai Yongyan immediately said to the people around him:

"Immediately mobilize manpower to put pressure on Sea Beast Sky Island at the border, and at the same time prepare for battle."

"Yes!"

Soon, with the breakdown of this negotiation, the relationship between the two sides became tense again.

Both sides deployed a large number of monks to patrol their border areas.

In some places, small-scale conflicts have even occurred.

Although there has not been any major action so far, if the situation continues in this way, a bigger conflict will break out sooner or later.

And the Mengyao Holy Land is still relentlessly demanding that the Sea Beast Island hand over its prisoners.

After all, two Jindan monks are extremely crucial fighting forces.

Especially at such an important moment, it is even more crucial.

But Sea Beast Tiandao is not a fool, and he must hold such an important bargaining chip firmly in his hands.

Sea Beast Sky Island, the first holy place, inside Sea Beast Sky City.

Several elders also gathered here.

Qiu Tianji sat in the first seat and said:

"Everyone, you already know the current situation."

"That Mengyao Holy Land went too far. Not only did they set up an ambush on the Holy Maiden of my Sea Beast Island, but they also almost caused my Sea Beast Island to suffer heavy losses."

"He even repeatedly disrespected our Sea Beast Sky Island during the negotiations."

"It seems that these hundreds of years of peace have completely made Mengyao Holy Land no longer take our Sea Beast Island seriously!"

"Now, the situation is serious and a war may break out at any time!"

"However, our Sea Beast Sky Island has just experienced a civil strife, and everyone is aware of the situation. Our strength is at its weakest now."

"Please give us an explanation on how to decide this matter."

All the elders turned their eyes to the Third Elder.

In the previous Sea Beast Sky Island, it was basically the Second Elder and the Third Elder who were competing against each other.

Although the Great Elder Qiu Tianji has a special status, he was specially ordered by the former leader of Sea Beast Island to be in charge of the sect.

Therefore no one could shake his position.

But because of this, Qiu Tianji was unable to establish his own power.

So before Qiu Tianji, apart from the Saint Son Lin Tianhao, he had almost no power of his own.

As the Holy Son Lin Tianhao stayed in the secret realm of the holy land, Qiu Tianji was no longer attached to this aspect.

Now, Chen Pingzhen can be said to be the true leader of Sea Beast Sky Island.

Therefore, everyone was waiting for Chen Pingzhen to speak.

"Haha, that's exactly what the Great Elder said. Right now, the internal strength of our Sea Beast Sky Island is quite low. If we want to recover, it will take at least several years or even decades."

"Even in terms of the combat power of the Void Refining cultivators, our Sea Beast Island is at a disadvantage. If the two sides really start a war, our Sea Beast Island will definitely suffer."

After hearing this, all the elders nodded.

Under the current circumstances, the situation on Sea Beast Island is indeed quite critical.

"Ah, what the Third Elder said is true. These are indeed troubled times."

"It seems that we are indeed in great danger now."

"If it doesn't work, we can only ask for help as soon as possible."

"Who can I ask for help?"

"If we really ask for help, even if we can get it, we will definitely pay a heavy price. Given our current situation, how can we take out so many treasures and spiritual materials to give to others?"

The elders all shook their heads and sighed, feeling very helpless.

Even Qiu Tianji frowned when he saw this situation.

This hasn't even started yet, it's the same for every one of them.

If a fight really breaks out, it would be strange if we can win in this state.

However, at this time, the third elder continued:
“Although, the current strength of our Sea Beast Sky Island is indeed far behind that of the Mengyao Holy Land.”

"But that doesn't mean there is no chance of winning."

The elders below looked at each other, all confused as to what the three elders meant.

"I wonder if the Third Elder has any solution?"

Chen Pingzhen continued:

"The reason why the Mengyao Holy Land was able to develop so rapidly is because its influence spans the two major regions of the South Sand Region and the North Sea Region."

"Although, in the North Sea, we have Sea Beast Sky Island competing with it, and there are several other relatively small holy places watching covetously."

"Let the Mengyao Holy Land not be able to act recklessly."

"But the Nansha Region lacks the power to resist the Mengyao Holy Land. This is why the Mengyao Holy Land can absorb the resources of the Nansha Region without restraint and grow rapidly."

The elders naturally understood this truth.

In Nansha Region, Mengyao Holy Land is currently the only dominant force.

Although there are several other holy places in Nansha Region.

However, the power of these holy places is far inferior to that of Mengyao Holy Land, and they can only retreat to a corner of Nansha Region or some remote and desolate places to develop secretly. (End of this chapter)
