Recruit demons to become heroes, hunt demons to become gods

Chapter 97: Sect Master Dou Bubbles

Guo Jia used a trick to undermine the foundation of Ji Le Men, causing the three main pillars of Ji Le Men to leave Ji Le Men and join He Zong.

So, when the Ji Le Sect and the Ji Yu Sect, which were originally evenly matched, started fighting again, the Ji Yu Sect immediately gained an absolute advantage and defeated the Ji Le Sect step by step.

Zhou Qiujian, the deputy leader and one of the three pillars of Ji Le Men, sent a message to the leader of Ji Le Men at this time, suggesting that Ji Le Men merge into He Zong and use the power of He Zong to destroy Ji Yu Zong.

The leader of the Jile Sect listened very well to the advice and thought that it was better to join the Hezong Sect than to be destroyed by his mortal enemy.

So, the Jile Sect took advantage of the power of the Hezong, and the Hezong used the Jile Sect's excuse to declare war on the Jiyu Sect.

The Ji Le Sect and the Ji Yu Sect were originally two equally matched forces. Now with the joining of the He Sect, the Ji Yu Sect is naturally no match.

After a defeat, some wandering cultivators came to persuade the leader of Jiyu Sect, using the issue of Jile Sect as an excuse.

Under the sweet words and persuasion of this independent cultivator, Hezong easily annexed Jiyuzong.

When luck comes, it can't be stopped.

Hezong had just annexed Jilemen and Jiyuzong when Qishoumen was besieged by the Nanmo Sect and Qidu Sect. Seeing that Jilemen and Jiyuzong had joined Hezong, they sent envoys to pay tribute to Hezong, hoping to use Hezong to resist the other two forces.

Guo Jia saw through it at a glance that the Qishou Sect was playing a trick of using someone else's knife.

He took advantage of the situation and sent someone to tell the Ji Le Men and Ji Yu Zong about this matter.

Guo Jia and the two forces stated that Hezong only wanted the Qishou Sect, not its territory.

When the Qishou Sect finished its merger ceremony with the Hezong, Guo Jia immediately ordered the Qishou Sect monks to migrate to Juhua Peak, where the Hehuan Sect was originally located.

As a result, the leader of the Strange Beast Sect was immediately caught in a dilemma.

Guo Jia directly told the leader of the Qishou Sect that disobeying orders would be considered treason.

Then, Hezong will join forces with Jilemen and Jiyuzong to attack Qishoumen.

In this way, the Qishoumen will either be destroyed or migrate and live under someone else's roof.

In the end, the leader of the Qishou Sect agreed to migrate, but he wanted the whole clan to promise to avenge the ancestor of the Qishou Sect.

Guo Jia naturally agreed to his conditions with pleasure.

Hezong spent five years digesting and annexing the three forces, and its combat power increased greatly.

The Guo family took the promise they had made to the leader of the Qishou Sect and demanded from the Seven Poison Sect the murderer who poisoned the ancestor of the Qishou Sect.

The Hezong attacked the Seven Poison Sect, and offered half of the Seven Poison Sect's territory as a price to stop the Southern Demon Sect from interfering.

The leader of the Southern Demon Cult certainly understood the principle of "the lips and teeth are cold", but he had his own considerations.

Therefore, he used this concern to bargain with Hezong.

The two sides finally reached an agreement, with the Southern Demon Cult joining forces to attack the Seven Poison Sect. After the Seven Poison Sect was destroyed, all the territory would belong to the Southern Demon Cult.

However, during the Hezong's attack on the Seven Poison Sect, they intentionally let their own cultivators do the work without putting in any effort.

This battle lasted for three years, causing the Seven Poison Sect's hatred for the Southern Demon Sect to far exceed that of the United Sect.

So, Guo Jia sent another wandering cultivator to contact the leader of the Seven Poison Sect.

Of course, these cultivators were originally independent cultivators, but now they have joined the united sect.

Independent cultivators have a wide range of friends, and capable independent cultivators are treated as guests of honor by various forces.

Guo Jia, on the other hand, greatly developed the value of the independent cultivators who joined the Hezong.

Now the general trend in southern Kunshan has become very clear.

If there were no intervention from the quasi-fourth-level forces, all other third-level forces would have been taken under the control of the Hezong.

As the saying goes, he who knows the times is a hero. As the leader of a sect, the leader of the Seven Poison Sect put forward various conditions and agreed to merge into the united sect.

The two sects reached an agreement in secret, naturally in order to trap the Southern Demon Sect at the critical moment.

Unexpectedly, Guo Jia's plan backfired.

In the end, it was Hezong who was tricked. The Southern Demon Cult and the Seven Poison Sect caught Hezong off guard.

The army of monks from Hezong was directly besieged and retreated to Juhua Peak, where they hid in the protective formation of the former Hehuan Sect, and suffered heavy casualties.

The main force attacking the Seven Poison Sect this time was the Jindan cultivators, totaling 300 cultivators, and half of them died in the battle.

As a result, the Southern Demon Cult and the Seven Poison Sect were even more unwilling to give up and continued to attack Juhua Peak without stopping.

Just as the formation was about to be broken and the reinforcements from Canglong Mountain had not yet arrived, a surprise force suddenly rushed out from Wenxiang Valley.

This special force only has one monk, and the rest are all magic mantises.

Among the five hundred magic mantises, there are three hundred at the third level and one hundred at the peak of the third level.

While the Southern Demon Cult and the Seven Poison Sect had over 500 Jindan cultivators attacking Juhua Peak, fewer than 70 of them were at the peak of the Jindan stage. The main demon mantis was a group of magical beasts, coordinated and commanded by someone, and they attacked the Southern Demon Cult and the Seven Poison Sect's cultivators like a flood.

The two families reacted and the Nascent Soul cultivator of the Southern Demon Sect wanted to take action to resist the group of demon mantises, but was stopped by a giant.

When the Nascent Soul cultivator of the Seven Poison Sect also wanted to take action, the giant's big hand grabbed the head of the Nascent Soul cultivator of the Southern Demon Sect.

One can imagine what happened. The head is no more fragile than a watermelon in the hands of a giant.

He killed a Nascent Soul cultivator so easily in an instant. The Nascent Soul cultivator from the Seven Poison Sect teleported away from the giant's sight.

What followed was an almost one-sided massacre by the Demon Mantis against the two Jindan cultivators.

A very strange scene was that the magic mantis did not kill all the monks, but it was the only human who sent these monks, who were only breathing their last breath, to their death.

In just three hours, this special force killed three hundred Jindan monks.

The remaining cultivators from the two families fled back in a hurry with the help of the Nascent Soul cultivator.

Of course, the group of mantises also suffered heavy losses, with only 303 left.

The number of third-level magic mantises is less than two hundred.

This cavalry disappeared after returning to Wenxiang Valley.

In fact, he entered the gourd forbidden area.

Guo Jia and Sheng Cailing arrived with reinforcements, but just missed this surprise attack.

They only saw the back of a monk standing on the back of the demon mantis and walking away.

When they arrived at Juhua Peak and learned about this cavalry unit, Guo Jia subconsciously said:

"That's the Sect Master. The Sect Master is back."

Guo Jia also remembered the figure he saw on the road, and only then did he remember Dou Eqing.

"How can a Jindan cultivator like him come and go freely in the gourd?"

Sheng Cailing asked suspiciously.

"Not only can he go to the restricted area, he also picked flowers from Nanze Qianlin and planted them on Yaju Peak."

Guo Jia said disdainfully.

He said this to intentionally divert Sheng Cailing's questioning.

"What flower?"

Sheng Cailing was indeed attracted by Guo Jia's topic.

"The Demonic Peony, you'll know if you go and see it. I'm sure you'll like it. I think the flower was planted by the Sect Master for you on Yaju Peak."

Guo Jia teased.

After being teased by him, she really went to Yaju Peak to see the Demonic Peony Flowers.

The news that Dou Eqing brought a group of magic mantises back to rescue quickly spread throughout the clan.

The monks of Hezong were about to forget Dou Eqing, the nominal leader, but now, there are countless disciples of Hezong who admire him.

Dou Eqing was able to enter and exit the gourd, but it brought him difficulties.

It was not as Guo Jia said that the gourd allowed him to enter and exit freely.

After entering the forbidden gourd, a demonic mark was branded on his body.

If he enters or leaves the forbidden gourd before staying there for ten years, this golden magic seal will appear between his eyebrows.

Originally he was standing on the back of the magic mantis, and the monsters in the gourd could not find him.

This magic seal stood out, and he immediately became a bright light in the dark night.

At the same time, if it is not ten years, he cannot leave the gourd for a long time.

Otherwise, the golden magic seal between his eyebrows will transform him into a demon slave, that is, the demon slave who is suppressed in the gourd.

When Dou Eqing first came in, a golden devil mark appeared between his eyebrows. He hid it here and there for half a year before it was removed.

Now, every time you enter or leave the outside world, it will take a year for this golden magic seal to disappear.

As soon as he retreated back to the gourd, he encountered another group of demon mantises.

This group of demon mantises is much stronger than Dou Eqing's group both in terms of number and individual strength.

Because of his presence, the group of mantises attacked him without hesitation.
