Lingxiao Immortal Clan.

"In that case, let's set off immediately!"

Seeing that the numerous cultivators in the Cangxuan army had no objections, Ling Pengyun and other powerful figures from the Cangxuan lineage immediately directed them to enter the spatial passage connecting the border area of ​​the Silver Moon Barbarian Bear clan.

After all, traveling in this way is faster.

Furthermore, the matter of the Netherworld Blade has already been exposed, and the current Cangxuan lineage is powerful enough to protect that treasure.

Ling Pengyun no longer intended to hide it as before, but instead planned to make the most of it.

As countless cultivators from the Cangxuan army entered the spatial passage, they immediately felt dizzy, as if the world was spinning, and were extremely uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the feeling dissipated in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, the scenery around them changed.

The air around them was no longer filled with the eerie aura of a ghostly realm, but rather with a thin layer of spiritual energy.

There was even a lot of vegetation all around, lush and green, full of vitality, as if it were full of life, completely different from the ghostly scene.

In addition, there is a vast spirit valley in the distance.

Not only does it contain an incredibly powerful fifth-grade superior spiritual vein, making its spiritual energy extremely dense, but it is also protected by a powerful top-grade fifth-grade superior formation.

There are even countless monsters guarding it.

The defenses there are extremely strong; even a Nascent Soul cultivator at the peak of his cultivation level would likely find it difficult to breach the defenses.

However, the situation there is not so good now.

The area was surrounded by a large group of cultivators who continued to attack.

Moreover, there were many powerful cultivators among them, including two late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, as well as some formidable battle formations.

Those cultivators then continued to suppress and beat them.

Perhaps it won't be long before those cultivators break through that Spirit Valley.

Those cultivators were the same group of powerful members of the Cangxuan lineage, including Ling Pengyun, who had been assigned to keep an eye on the Silver Moon Barbarian Bear clan's forces.

Leading them were the old Taoist Zhengyuan and Ling Pengxing, a demon cultivator from the family who had transformed into a god.

As for the Spirit Valley they were eyeing, it was Silver Spirit Valley, one of the five important border strongholds under the Silver Moon Barbarian Bear Clan.

"Unexpectedly, in just a short moment, we have traversed countless distances from the ancient ghost realm to arrive here."

"The power of that Netherworld Blade is truly extraordinary."

"..."

The main force of the Cangxuan army, who had just arrived here through the spatial passage, looked at everything in front of them and then at the massive spatial passage behind them, and couldn't help but show countless surprises.

They also felt a greater sense of awe towards Ling Pengyun.

now.

Ling Pengyun also followed the spatial passage and arrived near the Silver Spirit Valley in the Heavenly River Realm.

'Brother Pengxing and Elder Zhengyuan, with that small force, achieved quite good results.'

Ling Pengyun gazed at the situation in Silver Spirit Valley from afar, feeling extremely satisfied and secretly praising Ling Pengxing and Old Daoist Zhengyuan.

……

at the same time.

In the distance, the small group of Cangxuan army troops that were besieging Silver Spirit Valley discovered the main force of the Cangxuan army's presence by making a significant commotion through the spatial passage.

Since they had arrived here using the spatial passage created by the Netherworld Blade, they were not surprised by the spatial passage.

'I wonder how the main force of my Cangxuan army has fared in the Ghost Realm recently.'

'...'

The small group of Cangxuan army cultivators were somewhat curious.

'Pengyun and the others have finally arrived.'

'...'

The old Daoist Zhengyuan and Ling Pengxing, a ghost cultivator from the family who were overseeing the battle there, had been in the Tianhe Realm for some time, but they had learned about the situation in the Ghost Domain and the next moves of the Cangxuan army through some special communication methods.

Therefore, their eyes lit up immediately when they saw the main force of the Cangxuan army appear.

Immediately afterwards, they flew towards the main force of the Cangxuan army.

……

And soon.

Zheng Yuan Laodao and Ling Pengxing then joined Ling Pengyun and other powerful members of the Cangxuan army.

“Brother Pengxing, recently, my Cangxuan army, along with other righteous forces from the Tianhe Realm, have been traveling around the Ghost Land. After all, we have wiped out all the evil spirits in the Ghost Domain, including some powerful evil spirits who are skilled in swordsmanship.”

"Furthermore, they have cultivated the Ghostly Sword Intent to an extremely high level, and indirectly, their primordial spirits inevitably become tainted with some of the true essence of the sword."

"These evil spirits are special after all, so I specially bought most of them. See if those spirits can help your injuries."

"In addition, I also obtained some special sword-based healing items..."

Upon seeing Ling Pengxing, Ling Pengyun took out a special high-level Soul-Locking Jade Bottle and a few high-level Ghost Path spiritual items from his pocket, handed them to Ling Pengxing, and asked him questions curiously.

The Soul-Locking Bottle contained the primordial spirits of eight transformed evil spirits.

Among them is a malevolent spirit in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Two cultivators at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

The initial stage of the Five Paths to Deity Transformation.

Moreover, their primordial spirits are extremely sharp, like swords. If it weren't for the special effects of the Soul-Locking Bottle that imprisoned them...

In addition, Ling Pengyun also placed some special restrictions inside the Soul-Locking Bottle.

Otherwise, those primordial spirits might have escaped long ago.

In addition, when the Cangxuan army was dealing with the Silver Moon Bear Lord, Ling Pengxing suffered a lot of injuries while saving Ling Pengyun, and even burned his sword soul, making his sword foundation unstable.

While ordinary injuries on his body are easy to heal, the sword soul wound is extremely complex.

Even fifth-tier healing artifacts wouldn't be of much help to him.

His injury never healed.

His spirit and energy were not very good, and even his breath was particularly weak.

Furthermore, if this injury does not heal, he may not have any chance to reach a higher level.

It was precisely because of this that Ling Pengyun felt guilty and had been trying to find a treasure that would help him recover from the injury to his sword soul.

"The sword intent contained in those evil spirits is truly rich, a treasure for a ghost sword cultivator like me, and it is indeed beneficial to my sword soul injury."

"The same applies to other sword healing items."

"I might even be able to take advantage of this opportunity to recover from the Sword Soul Injury, or even go a step further."

"Brother Pengyun, thank you for this."

Ling Pengxing was startled when he saw the primordial spirits of those special evil spirits and the special sword-based healing resources. He quickly expressed his gratitude.

“Brother, this is something I owe you, you don’t need to be so polite.”

"Furthermore, I await the day when your swordsmanship reaches an even higher level."

Upon hearing this, Ling Pengyun smiled and said.

……

the other side.

Soon, the main force of the Cangxuan army arrived near Silver Spirit Valley through that special spatial passage.

In addition, they hadn't traveled very far, and they had been resting in the Ghost Realm for a long time, so their strength and fighting spirit remained at their peak.

"Follow us to crush Silver Spirit Valley." Upon seeing this, Ling Pengyun and other high-ranking members of the Cangxuan lineage immediately led the main force of the Cangxuan army to support the small group of Cangxuan cultivators and jointly attacked Silver Spirit Valley.

When Silver Spirit Valley faced that small group of Cangxuan cultivators, they were already finding it difficult to cope.

With the appearance of the main force of the Cangxuan army.

The situation becomes even more dire.

Regardless of how the countless Silver Moon Bears, a demon race, stationed within it fought back.

None of them caused any trouble.

Their attacks were even crushed by the entire Cangxuan army.

Moreover, every moment, a large number of attacks from the Cangxuan army landed on the valley protection formation, causing it to shake violently.

'The strength of the Cangxuan lineage at its peak was truly terrifying.'

'No wonder, all the powerful members of my clan who went to the Ghost Realm seeking opportunities, including Xiong Jun, fell to them.'

'...'

Some of the Silver Moon Bear clan members who had reached the Nascent Soul stage in Silver Spirit Valley were terrified upon seeing this.

The other ordinary monsters were already terrified and even lost their composure.

……

As the time goes.

About half a day later.

The protective formation of Silver Spirit Valley could not hold out any longer and was eventually breached by Cangxuan's army.

The Silver Spirit Valley was completely exposed to the Cangxuan army, as if it had lost its gate.

"kill!"

Immediately afterwards, a deafening, bloodthirsty voice rang out from within the Cangxuan army.

Subsequently, the Cangxuan army surged into the Silver Spirit Valley like a fierce tide, engaging in fierce battle with the demonic beasts within.

Because of their overwhelming advantage, Cangxuan's army gradually slaughtered countless demonic beasts.

The screams of monstrous beasts echoed continuously.

In the end, the monsters were all slaughtered.

The ground was littered with the corpses of demonic beasts, and countless drops of blood flowed from them, turning the entire land of Silver Spirit Valley blood red.

A pungent, bloody odor gradually filled the air.

It was as if this place was a living hell.

If left unchecked, it might not be long before vengeful spirits emerge from this place.

However, the Cangxuan army will not give the vengeful spirits a chance.

Immediately, filled with joy, they began to gather the corpses of the monsters scattered on the ground.

They didn't even spare the soil stained with the blood of the demonic beasts.

After all, the blood of those demonic beasts is a treasure, worth some money. As long as the dirt is removed, it is enough to earn a lot of battle merits.

'The gains from this battle were not bad, but there are really few demonic beasts here, and their strength is quite weak; they are simply not enough to fight.'

'If there were more monsters here, perhaps my gains would be even greater.'

'...'

The countless cultivators in the Cangxuan army, though overjoyed by the victory, also felt a touch of regret.

This confidence stems from the formidable overall strength of the Cangxuan army.

……

now.

Deep within Silver Spirit Valley.

Ling Pengyun and other powerful figures from the Cangxuan army, including the Star Sea Ancestor, were reaping the benefits from the Nascent Soul demons they had previously killed.

In addition, they also obtained some high-level spiritual plants from various parts of the valley.

However, those benefits are secondary. The most valuable thing about this place is the high-level spiritual vein deep underground and the high-level protective array that shelters this place.

These are extremely rare items, and they are not commonly seen even in the entire Tianhe Realm.

'If these were taken individually, they would probably be enough to form the clan territory and protective formation of a typical high-level Nascent Soul cultivator.'

'And the Silver Moon Bear clan possesses at least four or five such treasure troves.'

'It must be said, their foundation is truly formidable.'

Ling Pengyun gazed at the spiritual land and protective formation within the valley, and couldn't help but sigh.

In addition, he and other powerful figures, including the Star Sea Ancestor, considered that they would need to trade many of the Silver Moon Wild Bear clan's spiritual lands to forces such as the Radiant Star Immortal Sect in the future.

They did not yet determine the ownership of the spiritual vein in this area.

After a brief rest, they cautiously advanced towards some ordinary spiritual lands surrounding Silver Spirit Valley, as well as the remaining important border areas of the Silver Moon Barbarian Bear Clan.

While the defensive forces of ordinary spiritual lands and important border areas were decent, they still could not withstand the advance of the Cangxuan army.

Gradually, the Cangxuan army conquered 99% of the spiritual lands of the Silver Moon Barbarian Bear clan.

Finally, they surrounded the Silvermoon Bear Clan's last territory, the Silvermoon Mountain Range.

It contains many high mountains, and each of those mountains has a spiritual vein. In fact, the Silver Moon Hill at its core contains an extremely rare fifth-grade spiritual vein.

The spiritual energy in that area was extremely rich, making it seem like a sacred place for cultivation.

Moreover, the Silver Moon Bear clan used the power of those spiritual veins to set up an extremely special fifth-grade Silver Moon Heavenly Gang Array.

It can gather the power of heaven and earth and the moon to unleash terrifying power. Even among formations of the same level, it can rank in the middle to upper level, which is extremely extraordinary.

It also erected a large light curtain, covering the entire Silver Moon Mountain Range, making it extremely safe inside.

In addition, the Silver Moon Bear clan reacted quickly and had already gathered most of its demon beasts into the area, making it a place teeming with demon beasts.

There were even more than forty Nascent Soul level demon beasts among them, as well as several late-stage Nascent Soul level demon lords.

Half of them were demon bears from the Silver Moon Wild Bear clan, and the other half were Nascent Soul demon lords from their subordinate demon clans.

Upon closer examination, the defensive strength of the Silver Moon Mountain Range reached its peak.

Meanwhile, not far from the Silver Moon Mountain Range.

Judging from the current situation, breaching this place will indeed be quite difficult.

'Next, it's up to Senior Sister Xingqing to decide.'

Among the Cangxuan army, Ling Pengyun gazed at the situation of the Silver Moon Mountain Range from afar, and finally turned his gaze to Elder Xingqing, a fifth-order superior array master, who was not far away.

Elder Xingqing was sitting cross-legged on the ground, using the special array control token and other items obtained by the Cangxuan army from killing the Silver Moon Bear Lord, to sense the situation of the clan's protective array in the Silver Moon Mountain Range.

This matter was quite difficult, and during this time, the clan's protective formation even displayed a strong concealment effect, and even intentionally attacked Elder Xingqing.

If Elder Xingqing hadn't been outside the range of the formation, she might have perished.

As time went by, several months passed, and Elder Xingqing finally reaped the rewards.

"We've finally found the weak point in the formation."

Elder Xingqing slowly opened her eyes, her brows filled with joy, and stared intently at several inconspicuous spots in the Silver Moon Barbarian Bear Clan's protective formation.

Although those places may look no different, in reality, the array nodes in those places are somewhat lacking.

Under normal circumstances, they have little impact on the power of the great formation, but once they are attacked, causing cracks or gaps, even if the great formation contains powerful restorative abilities, it will be difficult to recover in a short period of time.

This is the opportunity for the Cangxuan lineage. (End of Chapter)
