In the end of the world, I become an immortal alone

After Wang Ji and Xuan Li left, the projections of the Dark Church's Four True Immortals didn't last long before dissipating.

Their appearance this time offered a tempting price:

[The major sects of this realm submit to the Dark Church, and all disciples will be spared death. When the Dark Church's army arrives, they only need to activate their mountain protection formations and cover their ears, playing dead. After the war, all cultivators above the Nascent Soul realm from each sect will join the Dark Church. No questions asked, and no interference allowed. Loose cultivators or experts in the Integration, Tribulation, or Great Ascension realms within other factions can join the Dark Church to protect their descendants and disciples.]

The Dark Church followers also had their difficulties.

Each time the Heavenly Dao sends down a major task requiring multiple branches to collaborate, they must shed enough blood and create enough chaos to receive contribution points.

If they fail to complete the task, they will face severe punishments.

Therefore, in this battle, the Dark Church must obey orders and destroy the cultivation practices of this cultivation world.

As for the fate of mortals, the Four True Immortals didn't reveal anything, most likely as Wang Ji Xuan had said before, they wouldn't touch those mortal lands.

Before leaving, the Dark Church's Four True Immortals also issued a stern warning.

Zhi Lan, the Second Grade True Immortal leading them, said coldly:

"Don't think that your disciples can escape by abandoning their cultivation and hiding among mortals, hoping to rise again and re-establish your sects after we retreat? That's too naive.

"The Heavenly Dao will guide us to those who must be killed!

"Even if they abandon their cultivation, we can still find them and obliterate them, body and soul.

"Since you embarked on the path of cultivation, defying the heavens, you should have expected that one day you would be taken by the heavens."

She snorted coldly, and the four projections turned and left, disappearing outside the main hall.

Daoist Tai Ye, along with the various sect leaders, abbots, patriarchs, and family heads, all wore grim expressions.

"True Immortals…"

Daoist Tai Ye sighed:

"Everyone, let's discuss this."

"What's there to discuss? Better to be a shattered jade than an intact tile!"

"Don't be agitated. We old bones are dispensable, but what about the Dao inheritance passed down by our ancestors?"

"It turns out we were all frogs at the bottom of a well, arrogant and self-important, thinking that Great Ascension and Tribulation were the pinnacle of the world. We never imagined that the Immortal Realm or the Heavenly Dao have always been manipulating the affairs of the mortal world."

"How can they act so recklessly? Where is justice!"

"They are obeying the Heavenly Dao, saying it's a task given by the Heavenly Dao, and they need to kill enough cultivators to complete it. Isn't that justice? Humph!"

"Everyone, what if we… endure it?"

"What do you mean by that? You're a Tribulation Realm cultivator! How can such cowardly words come from your mouth!"

"We sword cultivators would rather break than bend! At worst, it's just death! My spirit and energy can still be passed down in the world!"

"Alright, now is not the time to act rashly…"

And their opinions couldn't be unified in a short time.

'Aren't they just a mob?'

Mu Dan muttered inwardly, glancing somewhat guiltily at the neighboring休息室.

There, a certain Daoist and a certain spirit cultivator were sitting on a sofa, flipping through a recipe book on the projection screen, intimately discussing which nutritional meal to have for dinner.

They were being so sickeningly sweet.

Queen Mu Dan continued to focus on the main event.

The experts of this realm in the main hall discussed for several hours, and also invited Integration and Tribulation Realm experts from various families and small to medium-sized sects to explain the situation.

The outcome of the negotiations in the main hall could only be considered neither good nor bad for Wang Ji Xuan's side.

According to Mu Dan's analysis, some sects were already wavering, thinking that joining the Dark Church could preserve their sects.

Mu Dan was worried that major divisions might occur among the righteous sects later on.

However, Wang Ji Xuan reassured her that the situation she was worried about was unlikely to happen.

Because most sects have a 'righteous burden'.

What is a righteous burden?

It's the concept of righteousness that each of them has accepted since joining their sects.

They are righteous cultivators;

They abide by the rules, are strict with themselves, cultivate the Dao and their hearts, have noble characters, take it as their responsibility to protect the common people, punish the strong and help the weak, and relieve suffering!

This is a creed written into their bones.

Although there are also self-degrading people and deceivers in the righteous sects;

But one cannot deny the pursuits and persistence of the vast majority of righteous people because of a few bad apples.

Just like Daoist Wang back then.

He would never admit that he was a demonic cultivator, always trying to justify himself by saying that he was just using demonic techniques and methods, all because of this sense of identity in his bones.

That is the so-called righteous burden.

Facts proved that Wang Ji Xuan's conclusion was correct.

Although some elders of several sects were tempted by the conditions offered by the Dark Church, after internal discussions, the final result was still to maintain the original plan.

In the main hall of Wangxian Valley, the cultivators of this realm finally reached a consensus.

"How can we cultivators surrender without a fight."

"Let's fight these extraterrestrial demons!"

"Whether it's Tian Luo or that mysterious Daoist friend, they have given us some retreats. We have cultivated for so long, are we afraid of fighting?"

"That's right, the righteous path in the world is ever-changing, we will sacrifice ourselves to defend the Dao and protect our righteousness!"

The cultivators in the hall looked excited and indignant, eager to immediately find the Dark Church cultivators and fight.

The six loose immortals of Tian Luo seemed to be infected by the atmosphere.

They sent out jade talismans in public, contacting the Tian Luo headquarters in the Immortal Realm, wanting to ask Tian Luo to send some immortals to deal with the Dark Church's attacks.

As for whether the information they sent out would receive a response;

That was unknown.

Inside the command room of the Second Base's spire.

Behind the large projection screen, Mu Dan crossed her legs and watched the cultivators in the main hall, murmuring softly:

"These people are obviously afraid, why do they have to pretend not to be afraid? For face?"

"If you don't dare to face your own fear, you will eventually be devoured by it."

"I always feel like they are deceiving themselves."

Mu Dan clicked her tongue lightly and slowly closed her eyes.

The construction work of the Second Base began to accelerate continuously.

……

Wang Ji Xuan knew that he shouldn't spend his time on romantic love now.

But he was becoming more and more fond of spending time with Amy.

Wang Ji Xuan increasingly felt that the person in front of him was a real existence, a beautiful woman with some flaws like himself.

Maintaining her elegant 'large' form, Amy always made Wang Ji Xuan feel somewhat distant.

She was like the bright moon outside the window, or an artistic painting hanging on the wall, always having a sense of separation.

And Amy, who had returned to her 'small' form, might have a somewhat unpleasant personality, liked to tease people, would be petty, would express dissatisfaction with Wang Ji Xuan, and would even step on Wang Ji Xuan's foot when she was jealous…

This allowed Wang Ji Xuan to find a rare sense of reality.

He could truly hold her;

As if holding the beautiful world she had seen.

However, the two had never engaged in reproductive rehearsals.

They enjoyed the feeling of being in love, understanding each other with a touch of longing, rejoicing in every physical touch, moved by holding hands, and satisfied by embracing.

Play was play, but Daoist Wang naturally wouldn't forget the main business.

He was closely monitoring the progress of their rescue plan.

With the support of Senior Uncle Tai Ye, Murong Zheng Yi quickly became a representative of the aristocratic disciples;

This guy kept running around, first uniting the young talents of the aristocratic families, and then quickly befriending the genius disciples of various sects.

And Murong Zheng Yi was doing all of this to complete the task Wang Ji Xuan had given him.

— to become a leader.

However, Murong Zheng Yi was just one cog in the entire plan.

The whole plan was vast, controlled entirely by Mudan.

Even busier than Murong Zheng Yi was Gao Huating.

She set up a venue outside of Wangxian Valley, each time bringing in hundreds of disciples from various sects, using songs to carry power and test the temperament of these sect disciples.

The thousands of high-level mechanical bodies near Gao Huating also attracted onlookers from all walks of cultivators.

At this rate, Gao Huating should be able to examine all the sect and aristocratic family disciples before the war, but the numerous rogue cultivators…

She was just one person, her energy truly limited.

She could only rely on Mudan to oversee them.

Naturally, the various experts weren't idle either.

They chose Wangxian Valley as the site for the great battle with the Dark Sect, using the terrain to lure the enemy deep in and annihilate them with a large array.

Regardless of whether they could do it or whether the enemy would fall for it, they had to make these preparations.

Doing something was always better than doing nothing.

The newest novels are first published on 69shu ba!

Relatively speaking, Wang Ji Xuan's side was more relaxed.

When Wang Ji Xuan was with Amina, he would study the core circuits within her body, using her as a target to comprehend, trying to find a path for Amina to continue to become stronger.

How to break the limits of the core circuits again?

Mudan had deduced it many times, but still couldn't find a method with low risk.

Amina was also somewhat worried.

In the past, she was a traditional and conservative spiritual cultivator, who liked to stare at the sky blankly, slowly passing the long years of seventeen thousand years.

Now she had to face the issue of her own strength.

Wang Ji Xuan was constantly getting stronger.

Amina had begun to worry that if she couldn't keep up with Wang Ji Xuan's pace in the future and was left behind too much, then a huge gap would inevitably appear between her and Wang Ji Xuan.

Just like Wang Daolang's last relationship.

Moreover, Amina could clearly feel that Wang Ji Xuan's strength was increasing every day.

He hadn't been suppressing his realm recently, and having already experienced the Mahayana Realm twice, he easily found that sense of perfection again.

At this point, Wang Daolang's third life had finally caught up with the Three Realms Playboy of his second life in terms of Dao realm.

Amina was slightly anxious, and her way of dealing with this anxiety was… to transform into a smaller version of herself and go play with Wang Ji Xuan.

These busy and tense days with a hint of warmth came to an end in just seven days.

It wasn't that the Dark Sect had attacked ahead of schedule;

They were still on the Xianling Road, and it would take another twenty-six hours to reach this realm.

The reason Wang Ji Xuan reappeared was actually because the Celestial Realm Tianluo Headquarters had replied.

…

For the past six or seven days, these six Tianluo Loose Immortals had been staying in Wangxian Valley, helping to build various arrays, and even taking out some of their savings to create several immortal arrays.

The letter from the Tianluo Headquarters in the Celestial Realm was stored in a jade talisman.

The six Tianluo Loose Immortals hadn't opened it yet, and specifically invited the heads of the major sects and aristocratic families to gather together, forty or fifty people forming a large circle, to open the Celestial Realm's reply together.

Normally, as long as the Celestial Realm Tianluo Headquarters replied, it meant that reinforcements were already on the way.

However, when the leading Tianluo Loose Immortal opened the jade talisman, the blooming immortal light condensed into dozens of ancient characters, and the hall was silent.

What was written here was:

[The Dark Sect is determined to obtain this realm. The Dark Sect has suffered heavy losses before. There is no need to anger them here, otherwise, you will inevitably lose troops and generals, exacerbating the shortage of troops in my Tianluo. You six should try your best to recruit Tianluo members and leave when the opportunity arises.]

There was no signature.

Presumably, the Tianluo high-level who wrote this reply was also afraid of losing face.

"This! Immortals!" An old Taoist priest asked, his beard trembling slightly, "What does this mean?"

"Can't you understand?"

A female cultivator with a youthful appearance snorted:

"The Tianluo Headquarters in the Celestial Realm doesn't want to fall out with the Dark Sect because of us nobodies."

"We can only save ourselves, only save ourselves!"

The six Tianluo Loose Immortals were obviously a little embarrassed.

They had never thought that the headquarters' reply would be so…

Even if they said that the Celestial Realm couldn't interfere in mortal affairs and that Tianluo had to act according to the rules, that would be better than this reply!

Now it really seemed that their Tianluo didn't dare to provoke the Dark Sect!

"Fellow Daoists," a Loose Immortal sighed, "We have previously notified the branch halls under our control, and helpers will arrive tomorrow, but we can probably only transfer thirty or forty people."

"We have really tried our best to help you fellow Daoists."

"We can't influence what the immortals in the Celestial Realm think."

The sect leaders gradually looked at Taiye Daolang.

Taiye understood and nodded slowly: "Fortunately, we have another force to help us. If they can help, perhaps we can defeat the people of the Dark Sect again… Fellow Daoist, are you there?"

"If other fellow Daoists call, I probably wouldn't be here, but if Headmaster Tai calls, then I am naturally here."

Accompanied by a few chuckles, a crack opened in the void outside the hall, and a white cloud floated out from within.

Through that crack, the cultivators saw a vast and empty Mustard Seed Space.

That was the sub-space Wang Ji Xuan had prepared for the cultivators of this realm, and also the second base of their small team.

On the white cloud were not only Wang Ji Xuan.

Mudan was on the left and Xiaona on the right, forming a posture of two stars arching the moon.

Wang Ji Xuan descended from the cloud and landed in front of the cultivators, saying gently:

"Have you all decided to fight the Dark Sect to the death?"

"Of course!"

"We were negligent before, please forgive us, Fellow Daoist."

"We were short-sighted before and thought that the immortals in the Celestial Realm could save us…"

Wang Ji Xuan waved his hand, signaling them not to say these polite words.

Wang Ji Xuan said: "In that case, let the disciples from the Foundation Establishment to the Heaven and Earth Bridge Realm begin to enter."

"Wait!"

A Tianluo Loose Immortal frowned and said:

"If Fellow Daoist takes away all the disciples and leaves, what should we do?"

"What should we do?"

Wang Ji Xuan's eyes gradually turned cold:

"Fellow Daoist, you should first understand that it is the Dark Sect who is coming to destroy the cultivation affairs of this place. My taking away the intermediate-level cultivators of this realm is already saving their lives."

"Don't always look at others with your petty minds."

A female Loose Immortal of Tianluo snorted: "Aren't you just trying to make the cultivators of this realm work for you!"

"Say what you will," Wang Ji Xuan flicked his sleeves, "The sub-space gate will open in half an hour. Mechanical puppets will guide those who can enter this realm to survive. You can hesitate if you want, I can only save Wangxian Valley."

After saying that, he turned and left, going to find Murong Zheng Yi to arrange the follow-up matters.

The cultivators looked at each other, looking at Taiye with some doubts in their eyes.

Wang Ji Xuan naturally intentionally pointed out 'Wangxian Valley' to give his own sect a boost.

Taiye Daolang puffed out his chest and said with a smile: "Everyone doesn't need to be suspicious. He is a member of my Wangxian Valley. He cultivated here since he was a child, but later he left this realm by chance."

"You! Why didn't you say so earlier!"

"It's not too late to say it now."

The old beggar smiled and said: "This young man is much more righteous than the immortals."

The six Tianluo Loose Immortals were silent, just frowning and thinking.

Bang!

Suddenly, a jade talisman shattered in a Loose Immortal's sleeve. The Tianluo Loose Immortal's face changed, and he said in a low voice:

"They're coming so fast. They will probably arrive in this realm in two days."

"Set up the array quickly!"

Some chaos quickly appeared inside and outside Wangxian Valley.
