The martial arts immortals in the modern world.

Chapter 383 Torment
The characteristics of the Dark Avenue are unknown, mysterious, and elusive.

Practitioners of this kind of avenue are difficult to target or trap, making them the best choice for stealth and spying.

But darkness itself can be contained by space.

During the Dark Lord's heyday, Yaoguang's Tiandu Dragon-Slaying Formation and Sealing Heaven Stele were unable to do anything to him. At best, he could only rely on the light of his true spirit to determine his position and launch limited counterattacks.

However, as the demon origin of this demon lord was gradually worn away by the destructive avenue of the Great Annihilation Sword, the power of the Dark Avenue that he could mobilize also declined to the limit. At this moment, it had been suppressed by the Heaven-Sealing Monument.

Moreover, unlike those Daoists such as Shattering Void and Refining Void who have mastered powerful offensive Taoist arts, the Dark Dao is not good at attacking strongholds.

In addition, Yaoguang's Heaven-Sealing Stele was blessed by the Tiandu Dragon-Slaying Formation, and the power of the seal rose to a higher level, instantly suppressing the already extremely weakened Dark Demon Lord and making him unable to move.

Seeing the Dark Demon Lord being suppressed, the remaining few Void Demon Cultivators suddenly fell into despair.

"How could this be?"

"It's over! The Dark Supreme has also been suppressed! It's all over now!"

"Master Yaoguang, I am actually an undercover sent by Tiandao Sect to Yinyue Sect. I have been hiding in Yinyue Sect for these years just to find an opportunity to wipe out Yinyue Sect. I am one of them."

However, Yaoguang ignored them.

He just ordered Wu Changfeng, Qi Sha and the others: "Hold them! Of course, if you have the ability to defeat their demonic bodies and refine their demonic essence, you can do so."

"Yes."

Wu Changfeng, Qi Sha and others responded excitedly.

Two great shattering voids and five great refining voids!
This is an unprecedented glorious victory!
With this great victory, their lineage will be able to gain a firm foothold in the Southern Territory.

In addition, relying on the merits brought by this victory, when Yaoguang achieves the Shattered Void in the future, he will be fully qualified to compete with Zong Wenxian for the position of the head of the sect.

Although Zong Wenxian also had a record of killing Suixu, he always relied on the power of the sect without exception, and there were other supreme elders assisting him.

And the shaking light...

Almost by himself, he killed the two Shattered Voids and the five Refined Voids.

Compared with Zong Wenxianlai, the value of this is one level higher!
They could almost foresee how high Yaoguang's status would be in the future.

In this situation, no one would be stupid enough to actually refine the demon essence of these demon cultivators to strengthen their own cultivation and present it to Sect Leader Yaoguang, so that he can cultivate into the Shattered Void as soon as possible and be qualified to compete for the position of Sect Leader. This would be the right thing to do.

Yaoguang had no idea what Qi Sha and the others were thinking.

He directly sacrificed the cave world and concentrated all his efforts on refining the Lianxu and the Eight Desolate Demon Lord in the cave world.

This Lianxu and the Eight Desolate Demon Lord are still struggling, trying to break out of the cave.

However, Yaoguang's cave heaven was blessed by the Heart of the Void, and its solidity and stability were unmatched by any ordinary cave heaven for refining the void.

Rather than calling it a cave, it would be better to call it a small world.

Since the two were suppressed inside, it was naturally difficult for them to escape.

In the end, it took Yaoguang three days to refine the Lianxu, and it took him a full ten days to refine the Shatteredxu of the Eight Desolate Demon Lord.

With such a fast refining speed, the "corrosion" of the Demon Origin to the Cave Heaven will naturally be significant, and may even affect his ability to perform.

However, he had enough confidence that after the two Shattered Voids and five Refined Voids of the Yinyue Sect fell in Nandu, not to mention the interior of the Tiandao Sect, even the border of the Southern Region would become peaceful.

Therefore, he will have enough time to remove the "corrosion" of the Demonic Origin to the Cave Heaven one by one, allowing it to recover quickly in the future.

……

The battle between Yaoguang and the evil cultivators of the Yinyue Sect naturally caused all the forces outside Nandu to explode.

Two Shattered Voids and five Refined Voids demon cultivators swept up the demonic flames and came charging fiercely. Everyone could see it clearly.

Countless forces and monks living around Nandu were in panic.

Some people even felt as if the sky was falling and the earth was collapsing, and frantically sought refuge away from the surrounding areas of Nandu.

However, there were also many forces that stayed behind specifically to gather detailed intelligence on this battle.

Unfortunately, once the Tiandu Dragon-Slaying Formation was activated, news from the entire Nandu was cut off from both inside and outside.

In particular, Yaoguang modified the Tiandu Dragon-Slaying Formation, filling all the flaws of the formation and making it impossible for any information within the formation to be transmitted out.

As a result, whether it was the Jing family or some forces in the Tiandao Sect that had other intentions, including some hidden players in the Ten Sects of the Immortal Path and the Six Sects of the Demon Path, they could only wait anxiously for news outside the Tiandu Dragon-Slaying Formation.

“What’s going on? How did the Tiandu Dragon Slaying Formation activate? And why did it activate so quickly? It seems like Yaoguang… was prepared in advance…”

At this time, Jing Zhengyang was staring at the Tiandu Dragon-Slaying Formation, feeling uneasy.

It was such a good plan, why did such a big mess happen?

"Buzz!"

It was also when the head of the Jing family was waiting for news that the communication jade talisman on his body vibrated slightly.

Jing Zhengyang quickly activated his spiritual sense and covered the surroundings. When he was sure that no one was spying on him, he took out the jade talisman and probed his spiritual sense into it.

Soon, he sensed the spiritual fluctuations of the Jing family ancestor.

"Is the battle over?"

"There was an accident."

Jing Zhengyang had a trace of sweat on his brow: "The Tiandu Dragon Slaying Formation has been activated, and... the speed of activation is faster than we expected. Currently, the magic cultivators of the Yinyue Sect and the people of the Yaoguang lineage are all in the formation, and the news is cut off from the inside and outside."

This news made Jing Yuntian silent for a moment.

After a while, the Shattered Void Realm Grand Elder said, "I knew that the Yin Yue Sect took so long to act that Yao Guang would definitely be alerted... But there is nothing we can do. After losing a Void Refining Demon Cultivator, the Yin Yue Sect naturally has to investigate carefully before making a plan. They are also afraid that Yao Guang is a pawn we deliberately placed to lure in the masters of the Yin Yue Sect."

Jing Zhengyang nodded. Since there was no basis of trust between the two sides, the actions were naturally not timely enough, which gave Yaoguang the opportunity to make adequate preparations.

“However, the Eight Desolate Demon Lord has invited the Dark Demon Lord to come, and has also dispatched five Void-Refining Masters. Even if Yaoguang has the Tiandu Dragon Slaying Formation behind him, he may not be able to gain an advantage… It just takes some time.”

Jing Zhengyang recounted the situation based on his own understanding.

"time……"

Jing Yuntian sighed, "Nandu has been invaded by the Shattered Void Demon Cultivators, and Yaoguang has also sent a message for help. No matter how much I delay, the process must be followed. I must convene the Supreme Elders' Meeting immediately. Although I can delay it for an hour or two, but... this is the limit. If I delay any further, it will be my inaction as the on-duty Supreme Elder, and I will be blamed for it later."

"One or two hours..."

Jing Zhengyang glanced towards Nandu and said, "Since Yaoguang had been prepared, he seemed to have asked someone to repair the Tiandu Dragon Slaying Formation, making it more stable. It is probably not an easy task for the two Shattered Voids and five Refined Voids of the Yinyue Sect to break the formation in such a short time and kill the two Refined Voids and several Cave Voids of Yaoguang's lineage."

"Then we can only start with the teleportation array."

Jing Yuntian said: "After an hour or two of discussion, the Supreme Elders of the Supreme Elders Council must immediately go out to reinforce the Southern Region. The original method of reinforcement is to activate the teleportation formation directly to the Southern Capital, which can reach the Southern Capital in an hour at most. But if there is a problem with the teleportation formation, they can only take the Void Flying Boat to go, which takes a lot more time. If there is a delay on the way, or if there are other accidents, it will not be a problem to delay it for ten days or half a month."

"The teleportation array...is there a problem at this time?"

Jing Zhengyang was stunned.

If the teleportation array really had problems at this time, everyone would know that it was a case of using a knife to kill someone.

Apart from anything else, the Elder Dongxu who is responsible for the daily maintenance of the teleportation array will definitely be severely punished.

As well as the head of the immortal vein who maintains the operation of the sect, they will also be held accountable.

"The Yin Yue Sect's demon cultivators are so weak, and the Sect Master wants to eliminate Yao Guang, so this is the only method left. Sacrifices are inevitable."

Jing Yuntian said, sighing: "Report to me immediately if there is any situation."

"Yes."

Jing Zhengyang quickly agreed.

……

The Jing family communication ended hastily.

But to outsiders, the duration of this war was beyond everyone's imagination.

One hour, two hours, three hours, half a day, a day...

The Tiandu Dragon-Slaying Formation loomed over the sky above Nandu and never dissipated.

The energy fluctuations that occasionally rose from the formation also told everyone that this battle had not yet ended.

Although the North Sea Star is in great chaos and family annihilations are common, battles at the Shattered Void level are still somewhat rare.

Especially since this battle involved Yaoguang, a figure who had recently risen rapidly among the Ten Sects of Immortal Path, there were naturally countless spectators.

Taiyi Immortal Sect, Xianwu Sect, Dashang Immortal Dynasty, Zhenlong Immortal Dynasty, Penglai Immortal Sect, Jinwu Sect...

At first, when these people learned that the two great Shattered Void masters of the Yinyue Sect had led five great Refined Void Demon Cultivators to attack Nandu, they thought that the people of the Yaoguang lineage were doomed.

But as time went by, the Tiandu Dragon-Slaying Formation never disbanded, and the battle seemed to be still going on, and everyone became gradually surprised.

After half a month, no one could understand it anymore.

Regardless of whether the Eight Desolate Demon Lord and the Dark Demon Lord of the Yinyue Sect killed Yaoguang or not, they should leave.

After all, the Tiandao Sect’s supreme elders had to show up in the Southern Region no matter how much they delayed, because of the internal strife between the sect leader Zong Wenxian and Yaoguang, half a month had passed.

If you don't leave, it will be too late.

But in this situation, the Eight Desolate Demon Lord, Dark Demon Lord, and the five Yinyue Sect's Void Refining Demon Cultivators were still nowhere to be seen...

Could it be that he was trapped in the Tiandu Dragon-Slaying Formation?

The Yaoguang lineage is going to fight back and kill the Yinyue sect?
Not only the onlookers thought so, Jing Zhengyang and even the people from the Zong Wenxian faction of the Tiandao Sect thought so too.

……

"impossible!"

Outside Nandu.

Jing Zhengyang's eyes were red after suffering for half a month.

He stared at the Tiandu Dragon-Slaying Formation in Nandu that had not yet dissipated, gritting his teeth.

“No matter how powerful the Tiandu Dragon Slaying Formation is, it is only a thirteenth-level formation. It cannot trap two Shattered Voids and the five Refined Voids.”

He said so, but deep down he had another guess.

Is there any other power behind Yaoguang?
For example, that mysterious weapon master!

If there is a Saint of Weapons, will there be Shattered Void?
Relying on the power of Shattered Void and the Heavenly Capital Dragon Slaying Formation...

There is a possibility that Yaoguang could make a comeback and kill the enemy.

As Jing Zhengyang thought about it, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Damn it, we underestimated Yaoguang."

The head of the Jing family was filled with uneasiness.

If there really was a Shattered Void behind Yaoguang, and it had trapped the Eight Desolate Demon Lord and the Dark Demon Lord, and if these two demon cultivators revealed the identity of their Jing Family during their conversation...

The consequences could be disastrous.
