Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 830: The Demonic Cave Appears and the Situation Changes
“I hope it works this time.”

"As long as Senior Brother can achieve True Lord status, all the hard work we've put in now will be worth it."

Lang Yuanwu said in a deep voice.

Feng Yangde nodded heavily, his gaze cast towards the distant sky. He then took a long breath and said in a clear voice, "That's exactly the truth. My Luoxia Tianzong has been seeking the title of True Lord for generations. During this turbulent time that has not been seen in ten thousand years, it is time for our generation to rise up!"

"Let alone the Lotus Sect, even if the Black and White Dao Palace, Xian Jianchi and other sects came together to put pressure on us, I, Feng, would have the courage to face them head-on!"

Lang Yuanwu's eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance, and he whispered, "Brother, go ahead and do what you want. As long as I'm still breathing, I won't let anyone else take this magic cave away from us!"

"Even if they are fellow Xuanmen..."

He added with his eyelids drooping.

Feng Yangde turned his head and looked at his junior brother's resolute expression, and was speechless for a moment.

The field fell silent. From time to time, a breeze blew from the mountaintop, blowing the identical ornaments hanging from the waists of the two people...

……

The place where the Lianhuamen Mountain Gate is located is in the center of the continent and is called Lingbi Mountain.

The mountain is shaped like a big plate with a hole in the middle, which contains a vast lake of ten thousand hectares. The water is clear and bright, with thousands of jade lotuses floating on it, flowing and clean. It is surrounded by peaks, and when viewed from the sky, it looks like a flawless jade disk.

Since the meeting at Chongyun Mountain, Miao Yan has been busy planning and preparing at the mountain gate, and has no time to rest for a moment.

After noon, she suddenly received a letter from the sky. After opening it, her expression changed. She immediately handed the matter at hand to her disciples, and then flew away behind the mountain.

After travelling like this for a while, she arrived at the entrance of a cave. She lowered herself to the ground, loudly announced her name, and requested an audience.

Not long after, a bright and pretty young girl came out and bowed to her and said, "Master Miaoyan, why are you here at this time? Is there something wrong?"

Seeing Miao Yan nodded hurriedly, the girl did not dare to delay and quickly waved her sleeves. A gate with a faint precious light appeared on the ground. She said to her, "Uncle Master, please go in. Master is in the mansion."

Miao Yan nodded, stepped into the formation gate, and entered the depths of the cave.

She looked up and saw a woman sitting cross-legged on a cushion. She had a bun on her head and was covered in linen. She looked to be about thirty years old, with an ordinary appearance. She hurriedly stepped forward, bowed, and said:

"Senior Sister, there's a report from below that there's been some unusual activity within the Luoxia Tianzong, and they should have taken over Chongyun Mountain by now."

The expression of the female cultivator in hemp clothes slowly changed, and she murmured, "Feng Yangde is indeed not an ordinary person. He actually has such courage."

Miao Yan frowned secretly and asked, "Senior Sister, there is turbid air surrounding Chongyun Mountain. It is the sign of a demonic cave. This is related to the destiny in the calamity. I wonder how we should deal with it?"

"It doesn't matter."

The female cultivator in hemp clothes smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Liu had made an identification before leaving the mountain. He said that the sky phenomenon outside Chongyun Mountain was floating and not solid. It must be a false magic cave created by the demon cultivators."

"I was originally worried about who to send to suppress the rebellion, but now that Luoxia Tianzong is willing to serve, let them go."

Miao Yan nodded when she heard this. She believed that Uncle Master Liu was the True Lord of the sect and she would not make a mistake in identification.

But she still felt a little uneasy, and said, "After all, this matter is too complex. Should I send a letter to ask for the instructions of Uncle Liu?"

The hemp-clothed female cultivator suddenly felt uneasy and said coldly, "Master Liu is busy suppressing the existing demonic cave within the territory. How can we trouble him with everything?"

"Besides, since I am the head of the sect, I have taken care of all the arrangements. Junior sister, just follow my orders."

Miao Yan's face changed, but she didn't know how to refute.

Perhaps feeling that her words were a bit harsh, the female cultivator in hemp clothes softened her tone and said, "Junior Sister, think about this. If Luoxia Tianzong hadn't helped us suppress the Void Cave on Chongyun Mountain, who in the sect would have taken the order to go there?"

Miao Yan's heart moved and she understood what the other party meant.

There were traces of two demonic caves near the Lotus Gate mountain gate. After being identified by the True Lord, they were determined to be one true and one false. When the true manifestation came, the hemp-clothed female cultivator would definitely head for the true cave, while the false cave...

The female cultivator in hemp clothes smiled faintly and said, "If there were no Luoxia Tianzong, Junior Sister would have to go and suppress and disperse that Void Cave herself. Junior Sister, are you willing to do so? If you agree, I will immediately order the Luoxia Tianzong to be expelled from the country."

Miao Yan stopped talking and fell into silence.

The hemp-clothed female cultivator smiled and waved her sleeves, saying, "Junior sister, please return. In a month or so at most, the battle will begin. Without the Void Cave as a distraction, perhaps you and I can both achieve our goals."

……

In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.

Turbid air rolled between heaven and earth, and everything was hazy and unclear. The thirty-four places where spiritual energy gathered were now overflowing with demonic energy, almost like a real demon's lair.

In the Nanming Taoist temple, Chen Mu was practicing with his eyes closed, with Yu and Meng standing beside him.

However, not long after, Chen Mu suddenly opened his eyes, and then a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He flashed out of the house and looked into the distant sky.

Many of the disciples outside looked bewildered. Only Yu and Meng, who were following closely, also felt something and their expressions gradually became solemn.

"Teacher..."

Just as Yu Chengduan was about to speak, he felt a series of tremors under his feet. At first, they were very small, but later they became more and more violent. Then the entire Nanming Mountain began to shake, and a rumbling sound came from his ears, and the tremors became more and more fierce.

All the disciples were shocked and tried to use their magic power to steady themselves. However, just when the vibration became the most violent, it suddenly subsided and silence returned between heaven and earth.

It seemed like a moment had passed, but also like a long time had passed, but several earth-shaking noises were heard between heaven and earth, and the clear and turbid air suddenly rose like a whirlpool.

The next moment, pitch-black magic pillars rose up one after another from all directions of the Taiyi Xuanling Realm, like a countercurrent from the abyss, invading darkness, blocking the sun and the sky, making it difficult to distinguish between day and night.

The surge was so strong that it was almost like a tsunami. No matter where the cultivators were in the world, they could witness this scene that seemed like the sky was collapsing.

Among the five regions, Central Continent is the most prosperous.

There are thirty-four pitch-black magic pillars, and Central Continent alone has twenty-six of them!
Chen Mu looked up at the sky with a far-reaching gaze, and said in a deep voice: "The Demonic Cave has appeared in the world. Pass on my order and order my fellow Taoists from Beiyuan to quickly converge at the Fushan Changhe River and follow me to suppress it!"

With the trust of Master Pingyang, the command of this battle between Xuan and Demon was handed over to him.

"Yes!"

Yu Chengduan knew that the matter was of great importance and did not dare to delay for a moment. He hurriedly took out the jade talisman he had prepared in advance, and his magic power surged out like a tide.

Almost at the same time, the people in Xuantian Mansion and Feixing Dao Palace noticed something and took out their jade talismans to see that it was Chen Mu who summoned them. They all rushed over at great speed...

The Demonic Sky Alliance, above the sky.

Han Cang stood with his hands behind his back, his cloth cloak fluttering in the wind.

Looking at the pitch-black magic pillars that supported the sky and the earth, even though he had expected it, he still couldn't help but feel excited.

There are thirty-four magic caves, some of which are real and some are fake.

Although the Lord once said that the real and the fake can be transformed, it is better to keep the real cave and completely connect the two worlds.

And if they really want to realize Mo Tian's vision, according to the Lord's speculation, they must guard at least seven of the seventeen true caves.

If there is one less place, the number of real demons and even heavenly demons from the demon world coming here will be greatly reduced.

How could the Black and White Dao Palace, with its ten-thousand-year-old traditions, be overturned without a demonic tide that could shake the world? "Seven places..."

Han Cang murmured, a strong fighting spirit flashing in his eyes.

He looked back and saw that nearly a hundred Yuanying cultivators from the Alliance Sect also had fiery eyes.

He took a deep breath and shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone, success or failure depends on this one move. Whether we succeed or fail depends on you and me. I hope you will achieve unparalleled achievements and do not let down the Lord's trust!"

"We will follow the orders of the chief!" Everyone bowed and shouted.

Han Cang nodded slowly and waved his hand: "Go!"

Nearly a hundred figures flashed together and disappeared without a trace the next moment. It turned out that they used some kind of teleportation method. In just a moment, their real bodies were millions of miles away.

Yan Xinjue and the others lagged behind, and after looking at and nodding with Han Cang, they fled together towards the Black and White Dao Palace...

In the Black and White Taoist Palace, Lord Dong Zhen was sitting cross-legged on a jade couch. Suddenly he became aware of something and abruptly stood up and took a step forward. A strange gleam of light appeared in his eyes and he glanced towards the northern region for several times.

Then he frowned, thought for a moment, raised his hand, and condensed a talisman. Then he snapped his fingers, and with a whoosh, it flew into the air.

This was different from the communication jade talisman prepared by Chen Mu. It could not be transmitted immediately. Even through the hands of the True Lord, it took several hours to reach Chen Mu's hands.

At this time, Chen Mu had already reunited with his fellow Beiyuan people, and was marching towards the Beiyuan Demon Cave with great vigor and confidence.

But this did not affect his viewing of the True Lord's secret orders.

After taking the talisman and looking at it, his expression suddenly changed.

"Han Cang, the second of Taixuan, and five other demon cultivators on the list, along with nearly ten demon envoys from the Demon Heaven Alliance, are rushing towards the Dao Palace. We hope that Chen Shangzhen will resolve the danger in Beiyuan as soon as possible so that we can return to help immediately."

Chen Mu's eyes flickered slightly, and he was somewhat confused as to why the Demonic Sky Alliance made such a choice.

No matter which perspective you look at it from, seizing the magic cave from the Black and White Taoist Palace will always be the most time-consuming and laborious.

If you have the time, why not make a couple more trips to compete with the Pingyuan Sect and Huanwo Sect?
Or, the Demonic Heaven Alliance was afraid that the Black and White Dao Palace would be free, so they could crush them one by one, leaving them with no advantage at all...

Chen Mu's mind raced, and he guessed the reason by accident, but he didn't have time to think about it anymore.

After changing his mind and pondering for a moment, he called Jin Yushan from Xuantian Mansion to his side.

Apart from the very old Sun Zhiyan, Xuantianfu is the person with the highest realm and the highest cultivation level among the people in the field.

"What does Fellow Daoist Chen want from me?"

Seeing the magic cave in front of him and being suddenly stopped, Jin Yushan couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Chen Mu's eyes flashed, and he said, "Fellow Daoist Jin, the situation has changed. We can no longer proceed according to the original plan. We need to attack separately."

As he spoke, he took out a jade token surrounded by pure energy and handed it to the other party.

"Lead all your fellow Daoists and rush to the magic cave to the south. Be sure to plant the Jade Purity Order when the magic cave matures. Anyone who disobeys this order will be severely punished!"

The jade token was given by the True Lord Pingyang. If used at the right time, it can restore order, turn turbidity into clarity, and completely suppress the demon cave.

Jin Yushan hesitated for a moment, then accepted the jade token and asked, "If I take everyone away, what about you, Daoist friend? How many people should I leave behind?"

Zhuang Yan followed beside him, but did not say a word out of trust in his disciple.

"It doesn't have to be this way."

Chen Mu's voice was calm, but it revealed an unparalleled confidence as he said, "I am enough."

There were two magic caves in the north. After being identified by Pingyang Zhenjun, the one not far ahead was the fake one, and the magic cave to the south was the real one.

Their original plan was to first work together to break up the virtual cave in front, and then turn to the south to the magic cave, and wait for the right time to plant the Jade Purity Order to resolve the danger in the north plain.

However, judging from the talisman just now, the Black and White Taoist Palace might be in danger. As the master of the Supreme True Palace, he naturally has to do his best to help.

Therefore, it would be a bit too late to follow the previous arrangement. Only by acting separately can we squeeze out some time.

Chen Mu was the one in charge, and since he had made the decision, Jin Yushan had no choice but to obey. He immediately said solemnly, "Fellow Daoist Chen, please be careful."

The situation was quite tense now and there was no room for further delay, so everyone waived the farewell ceremony. Soon, several beams of light shot up into the sky and headed south towards the magic cave.

Chen Mu looked up and into the distance, knowing that this battle could be regarded as the most direct clash between the Xuan and Demonic forces since the trend of the Demonic Tribulation emerged. He wondered how many of the participants in this battle would die.

But in a moment, he withdrew his gaze, waved his sleeves, and in an instant, a clear whistle resounded through the sky, and a water-colored light surged up and flew forward at a high speed.

A hundred thousand miles away was reached in the blink of an eye. Chen Mu stared at the pitch-black magic pillar in the sky, which was so thick that he could not believe it, and clicked his tongue repeatedly.

Even though the magic cave in front of him was just an illusion, it still exuded a pure demonic aura, which was no less than the demon source in the Demon Court of Southern Xinjiang.

With his arrival, the Demon Alliance monks who had been waiting here slowly opened their eyes, revealing a sense of helplessness all over their bodies.

When he first received the order to guard the Demon Cave in Beiyuan, he was complacent, thinking that he could avoid a life-and-death battle.

It was not until he reached this point that he suddenly woke up, but it was too late.

Looking at Chen Mu who was approaching gracefully, he showed a bitter expression, cupped his hands and forced a smile, saying: "I guess this is the legendary Taoist friend Lingyuan. I am Huo Chen, and I have no intention of becoming your enemy, but..."

"Since you have no intention of becoming my enemy, why don't you retreat immediately?"

Before he could finish, Chen Mu shouted coldly.

Huo Chen's expression suddenly darkened, and he replied in a muffled voice, "But the order of the Alliance Sect is hard to disobey..."

Chen Mu lowered his eyes and said coldly, "If that's the case, why are you talking nonsense?"

He stood in the clouds, raised his sleeves that were about to fly, and pressed them lightly downwards. In an instant, the wind and clouds surged in the sky, and a giant hand holding up the sky descended from the sky, targeting the person in front of him.

At this moment, it was as if the mountains were collapsing. The formations that Huo Chen had arranged in advance could not withstand such a force. After a series of earth-shattering noises, they collapsed in just a few breaths.

Huo Chen's heart was filled with fear. Seeing that the giant hand was about to fall on him, his face suddenly turned ruthless. He separated a stream of blood from his body, and in a flash, it turned into a blood light and rushed out of the range of the Taoist magic.

It's a pity that he still underestimated Chen Mu's ability. The blood light spread for thousands of miles, but when he looked back, he found that he could not escape from the range of the giant hand.

"This...how is this possible?!"

His mind was in turmoil for a moment, and when he was stunned, he saw a giant hand smashing down.

"boom!"

The next moment, there was a muffled sound, and a bloody rain burst out from the sky.

In the midst of this, Huo Chen's Nascent Soul leaped out in terror, not daring to stay even for a moment. It teleported straight towards the sky and disappeared in the blink of an eye...
