Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 856: Countermeasures in Xutian Palace

The speed of escape in the Spirit Transformation Realm is far beyond the imagination of the world and even Chen Mu.

Look at the void, there is a mysterious energy that is vast and boundless, as if it carries the sky and covers the earth, invisible and formless, and the surrounding universe is white. Often, with just one leap, it can cross hundreds of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers.

Because they were in the void, Chen Mu and Tao Xianxu did not dare to use their spiritual power. After looking at each other, they closed their eyes at the same time.

Anyway, no matter where you go, just listen to the True Lord's orders...

Not long after he left, Dong Zhenxin thought about it, and the void in front of him suddenly cracked. A stream of light rushed out and then turned into the small world of the Demon Court.

At the same time, Bai Jin and the other True Lords who had arrived earlier all sensed something and could not help but nod and smile, saying, "It is indeed Brother Dongzhen who has arrived..."

Everyone stood on the Xutian Palace and looked sideways.

Then a mysterious energy was seen sweeping across the sky. When it reached the sky above this place, it flashed for a moment and then the Dharma image was retracted, revealing the figures of four people.

"Brother Dongzhen, Fellow Daoist Xuyun."

More than ten True Lords bowed deeply one after another, calling him "Brother Daoist" over and over again.

Chen Mu's heart moved, and he gained a further understanding of Senior Dong Zhen's status.

Frightened, he looked around and thought to himself, "So I'm here..."

"However, this place is the origin of the last demonic calamity. Now that so many True Lords have come here, is this going to happen again?"

Thinking of this, he suddenly looked intently and saw demonic smoke billowing from the hundred-foot-wide well. If it were not for the red-gold halo, it would almost fill the sky.

"My two fellow Taoists, please take a seat."

At this time, Bai Jin invited Dong Zhen and the other two to enter the hall for a chat, and at the same time, he glanced at Chen Mu: "Don't be polite, Chen boy, go find Hua Xiaozi."

"Yes."

Chen Mu and the other two bowed and waited for the True Lords to enter the hall before landing on the square in front of the hall. There, Hua Meimei was already jumping up and down, waving to them.

"Friend Hua." Tao Xianxu greeted him again.

Hua Meimei nodded and smiled, then looked Chen Mu up and down and said, "Seeing that you are full of spiritual energy, I guess you have also been blessed with spiritual energy?"

Although they were talking about Chen Mu, seeing that he looked complacent and inadvertently revealed that he had some inspiration, Chen Mu and the others knew that he had other intentions.

Chen Mu shook his head and smiled, not wanting to indulge him, and asked directly: "What's the situation here?"

Seeing that the question was about serious matters, Hua Meimei's expression straightened and she sighed, "What else can we do? The demon army on the other side is pressing forward, ready to attack, and my demon clan only has this old man, a fifth-level fighter. What else can we do if we don't send a letter to ask for help? So I called all of you here..."

Hearing this, Chen Mu nodded slightly, but Tao Xianxu couldn't help but frowned and whispered: "It's hard for you."

"Who says it isn't?"

Hua Meimei seemed to have opened up the conversation and said in a muffled voice, "Ten thousand years ago, the demons suddenly attacked this place, causing heavy losses to all members of our demon tribe, and once weakened to the extreme."

"Even after ten thousand years of cultivation, I've only recovered to 60% of my former state. And now it seems like it's about to happen again. No wonder the old man is so angry that he's jumping up and down and cursing..."

Hua Meimei mumbled a lot, and finally let out a long sigh, finally expressing her frustrations.

Chen Mu took the time to sense this place for a moment, and when he saw that there was no trace of Qiu Lan from the Hall of Eternal Life, he frowned secretly...

During this period, True Lords arrived from time to time, most of whom were from the Zhongzhou Taoist sect, just like Chen Mu and his friends. Each True Lord brought one or two younger generations from the sect.

Putting aside the other side effects of this move, Chen Mu has now become quite famous.

"Brother Chen, I heard that you killed the second Taixuan in the Chongyun Mountain formation? Is this true?"

"Brother Chen Dao, did Han Cang really die at your hands?"

"Hahahaha, Fellow Daoist Chen, you killed the leader of the Demonic Dao Yuanying, which really earned us a lot of prestige for Xuanmen!"

"Ah! What a pity, what a pity! If I had known this would happen, I would have followed Fairy Yaoguang no matter what!"

"..."

Li Jianyi, Wei Mingde, Dudu, Kong Yerong and even Yaoguang and Yangcheng who spread the news gathered around to greet them, some talked and laughed, some admired and some joked, making the place where the three people were originally talking very lively.

There was a True Lord in the hall who couldn't stand it any longer and wanted to speak up and give some advice. When the devil's calamity was approaching, how could one make such a commotion?

But before he could open his mouth, his companion saw what he was thinking and stopped him, shaking his head and laughing:

"With us here, why should we demand more from them? Besides, Young Master Chen eliminated the Nascent Soul leader of the Demonic Path. Even I can't help but applaud him. Let them be..."

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Mu and his companions suddenly noticed something and turned to look in the other direction.

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the void, and an astonishing pressure accompanied by water vapor rushed towards him, and all the smoke and evil spirits in the sky retreated.

In the hall, Bai Jin slowly stood up, nodded and said with a smile: "The Dragon Queen has arrived."

Everyone looked intently and saw three figures.

The first person had her hair covered with pearls and jade, and was wearing a shimmering brocade palace dress with dragon patterns. She was none other than the Dragon Queen of the East China Sea, who had regained her former elegance and grace.

Behind him, to the left, was Prime Minister Gui, with a dignified face and wide sleeves and big hands. As for the last person...

Chen Mu's heart moved slightly, and he nodded and smiled at him.

Ao Yi noticed something, and when he saw the figure, his cold face softened a little.

"Senior Bai."

The Dragon Queen and Prime Minister Gui walked into the hall one after another, and all the True Lords stood up to greet them.

Both of them nodded with a smile, and before they actually sat down, they felt a disturbance coming from outside.

Bai Jin brushed his beard and said in a serious tone, "It's our fellow travelers from the Western Desert who have arrived."

Two figures appeared in mid-air, and the evil spirits around them immediately dissipated like melting snow.

The Western Desert has always been a separate place, with little contact with the people of the world, and even the True Lord Huashen is not isolated from the outside.

At this point, the number of people in the hall who came to greet him was much smaller than before.

However, the two monks, one old and one young, seemed quite Buddhist, neither happy nor sad, and walked into the hall calmly.

After another half hour, Master Pingyang also arrived.

Because he thought that all his fellow Taoists were waiting for him, he did not stop to talk to Chen Mu. He just nodded to show his closeness and then strode in.

Before he even entered, a voice came: "My fellow travelers, Pingyang is late."

"Why are you so polite, Fellow Daoist Pingyang?" Bai Jin stood up, smiled, and extended his hand to invite him: "Please take a seat."

Pingyang readily agreed, and the moment he sat down, all the True Lords straightened their expressions.

In the sky, smoke and mist are mixed, and the devilish energy and golden halo blend together, reflecting a unique beauty.

Outside the hall, Chen Mu and his group of dozens of people gradually slowed down their breathing and all listened attentively...

"Brother Bai Dao." It was Master Dong Zhen who spoke first. He glanced around and said, "Everyone is here now. I'd like to trouble you to tell me about the current situation."

Bai Jin nodded and said bluntly, "Actually, there's no need for me to say more. I believe you can all sense it. At the other end of the passage, there are no less than fifty fifth-order auras."

"With so many fifth-level combat forces, they are more than enough to break through the 'Sacred Beast Burning Heaven Demon Suppression Formation' in one fell swoop, but they chose to leave a little time..."

Many people found something unreasonable and began to speculate in their minds.

True Lord Xian Jianchi was an old man in a silver robe, his eyes sharp as he gazed into the depths of the Demonic Well: "They are quite arrogant, actually wanting to capture us in one fell swoop!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes suddenly became stern.

"Ugh."

Nanhuagu Zhenjun suddenly sighed and shook his head, saying, "Arrogant... those outsiders and demons do have the capital to be arrogant."

"Does anyone here know that during the last demonic calamity, the sages would often go to great lengths to slay a fifth-order true demon, but before they could even breathe a sigh of relief, the demon world would send another one to take their place."

"This cycle repeats itself endlessly, and if the passage between the two worlds hadn't been restricted at that time, this world might have long since become a demonic domain..."

Xuanyin Sect's True Lord continued, "I also know something about this matter. Didn't they say that Dingchu True Lord of Xianyin Cave Heaven once faintly spied a sixth-level aura in this passage?"

At this point, his eyes flickered slightly, and he asked, "Brother He Dao, does your sect have any records of this matter?"

The sixth level is equivalent to the realm of transcending tribulation in the Taoist legends of this world.

Although it is only slightly different from the Spirit Transformation Realm, it should be noted that there has been no record of the Tribulation Realm in the Taiyi Xuanling Realm for nearly 20,000 years.

It cannot be seen in this world, but it can be sensed in the demon world.

Doesn't that mean that the world of heretics and demons is even more beloved by heaven and earth than the Taixuan world?

This matter cannot be thought about in detail, so after Dingchu Zhenjun discovered it, he decisively ordered to prevent the news from spreading.

But at that time, there were also many people in Zhongzhou and many eyes, so it was impossible to completely eliminate them.

After thousands of years, there are still only a few people who know about this...

"Don't mention this again!"

The Taoist Master surnamed He of Xianyin Cave Heaven had an elegant face, but now he frowned and glared, sneering, "You two fellow Taoists, are you afraid of the heretics and demons?"

The matter that his ancestors had intentionally concealed was revealed by the True Lord of Xuanyin Sect. No matter what He Daojun thought in his heart, he had to rebuke him openly.

The True Lord of Xuanyin Sect also knew that he was in the wrong, so he smiled awkwardly and said nothing more.

Nanhuagu Zhenjun was about to retort, but was interrupted by Xianjianchi Zhenjun, who said, "Daoyou He is right. Now that things have come to this, why bother encouraging others and destroying your own prestige?"

Yuanqing Sect's Chongtai Zhenjun suddenly spoke up: "Don't belittle yourself, but don't be arrogant either. Fellow Daoist Yinxiao, if you follow your advice, how should we respond now?"

Although Master Xian Jianchi looked old, his sword heart was sharp. His eyes suddenly became fierce. "I will sit here and kill one if I come. If two come, I will kill a pair. Even if all fifty True Demons come, I will make sure they never return!"

"it is good!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately resonated with the True Lord of Longxiang Mountain. As the only fifth-level power cultivator present, he also believed in the straightforward approach.

At this time, Qingxu Immortal Palace's Han Yuan Zhenjun frowned and said, "If this is the way to proceed, then what is the point of our discussion here?"

"Besides, the alien demons are gathering in an unbreakable force, just waiting for us to gather and come. They might even be eager for us to fight them head-on..."

The True Lord of Longxiang Mountain replied, "Fellow Daoist Han Yuan, do you think we don't understand the truth? We are simply suffering from a lack of a magic method."

After saying this, he shook his head and sighed, but said nothing more.

There was a moment of silence in the field. Everyone's eyes moved, and they glanced at the Demon Ancestor Bai Jin from time to time. Their minds were filled with thoughts. It was unknown whether they really had no ideas, or whether they were hesitant to be the first to speak out?
The silence didn't last long. Seeing that no one spoke, Dong Zhen nodded to Xu Yun. Xu Yun immediately understood and said softly, "I do have a plan, but I need to ask Brother Bai Dao for his consent first."

Everyone's heart moved and they all looked over.

Bai Jin also seemed to have noticed it, and replied calmly: "Oh? Fellow Daoist Xuyun, please go ahead and tell me."

Xuyun paused, then slowly said, "The foreign demons saw the shallow barriers of this small world and intended to use it as a transit point to invade our Taixuan Realm. So they pressed forward. This move is certainly clever, but it also gives us a great opportunity..."

"What do you mean by this?"

"As long as Brother Bai Dao dares to give up, we can wait for the arrival of all the foreign and strange demons..." At this point, Xu Yun's eyes suddenly flashed, and he said shockingly: "Decisive to cause the collapse of this small world!"

Before Bai Jin could react, Hua Meimei outside the hall was shocked and almost subconsciously jumped out to object. What a joke! This is the ancestral home of the demon clan. If this world is destroyed, then their Southern Xinjiang demon tribe will become rootless grass...

"Fellow Daoist, please continue."

Unexpectedly, Bai Jin did not react much. Instead, he urged with an interested look.

Seeing his expression, Xuyun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I think Brother Baidao has already discovered it..."

"I've already made some observations since I arrived. This small world has experienced the turmoil of the demonic calamity ten thousand years ago. Although the surface remains unchanged, its interior has already been unable to bear the heavy burden."

"If there were no more unrest, it could still exist for at least ten thousand years. But after what has happened, even if we don't actively cause it to collapse, it will surely vanish into thin air within a thousand years, and there will be no trace of this world left in the world."

"Since it is destined to dissipate, why not, with Brother Bai Dao's approval, make another contribution to the Southern Xinjiang Demon Tribe and even the entire Taiyi Xuanling Realm?"

Xu Yun whispered, "By causing this world to collapse, the foreigners and demons will be lost in the chaotic flow of the void, making it difficult for them to return."

"And after losing dozens of fifth-level true demons in a row, I don't believe that there will be no impact on the demon world at all."

"Even if the Demon Realm can regroup and attack from other Demon Caves, it will never reach the scale it is now..."

"Brother Bai Dao, what do you think?"

Everyone stared at it and couldn't help but slow down their breathing.

In fact, they had thought of this method, but they were worried that it would upset him.

Someone would bring it up anyway, so why bother?

And in the end, as expected, the Black and White Taoist Palace, as the world's number one Taoist sect, should have the courage to speak out.

Bai Jin remained silent, lost in thought.

Just as Xuyun said, he could see that this world was weakening, which was why he did not refuse at the first time.

In his heart, let alone the fact that this world is already weak, even if it is intact as if it is newborn, he is willing to give it up when the time comes.

After all, the demon clan’s ancestral home is a thing of the past, and the demon clan’s future is the top priority.

Just imagine, if even the Southern Border Demon Tribe no longer existed, what would be the point of this world being as long-lived as the sky?
"We should always consider the present..."

Thinking of this, he nodded heavily and said, "Since Fellow Daoist Xuyun is confident, then just proceed. I will fully support you!"

Xu Yun's heart moved, and he immediately stood up and saluted: "Friend Bai Daoist is so wise and righteous, why worry about not being able to overcome this disaster?"
