Yunmeng Immortal Clan

An hour passed, and Song Daoxuan stubbornly insisted on his opinion, presenting various advantages and disadvantages. Even though Song Honghu was unwilling for his son to participate in this war, he eventually had no choice but to agree to his son's request.

To achieve a swift victory, the Bamboo Creek Sect dispatched two Core Formation cultivators: True Man Liu and True Man Zuo. As for True Man Du, he remained in seclusion, a period that would last at least a decade. Core Formation cultivators are rarely interrupted during seclusion, as an interruption would render all their previous efforts futile.

Master Zuo was the first of the three true disciples to be accepted as a true disciple by Patriarch Zhuxi, and also the first cultivator to break through to the Core Formation stage.

Master Liu was the last disciple of Patriarch Zhuxi. Although she was the last cultivator in the sect to reach the Core Formation stage, she was the youngest and had exceptional talent in array formations. Patriarch Zhuxi had the highest hopes for her future.

Two Core Formation cultivators from the Zhuxi Sect led a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators and five hundred Qi Refining cultivators into battle.

The seven major cultivation families in Yunmeng today have a total of more than a dozen Foundation Establishment cultivators and more than 800 Qi Refining cultivators.

However, among the nine immortal continents in the world, the Zhuxi Sect, in addition to the Yunmeng Immortal Continent, also governs the Tianchu Immortal Continent.

Tianchu Immortal Continent borders Yunmeng Immortal Continent. Tianchu also has five Foundation Establishment Immortal Clans. These five Foundation Establishment Immortal Clans together have ten Foundation Establishment cultivators and more than six hundred Qi Refining cultivators.

Besides the Zhuxi Sect as a whole, there are also these Foundation Establishment Immortal Clan forces, some registered Qi Refining Clan forces, and some well-known forces, totaling about thirty Foundation Establishment cultivators and over eight hundred Qi Refining Immortal Cultivators.

In this great battle, the human race had a total of over 160 Foundation Establishment cultivators, two Core Formation cultivators, and over 2,700 Qi Refining cultivators.

The Yunling demon race has a third-tier mid-level Azure Cloud Flood Dragon comparable to the mid-stage Core Formation stage, nearly two hundred second-tier demon beasts comparable to Foundation Establishment cultivators, more than three thousand first-tier demon beasts comparable to Qi Refining cultivators of the human race, and countless other low-ranking demon beasts.

It seems that the Zhuxi Sect is at a disadvantage, but if Master Liu, a third-level array master, could set up a world-destroying array, then he and his senior brother, Master Zuo, might not be without the power to fight this demon.

In the eyes of the cultivators in the Yunmeng cultivation world, the human cultivators have a variety of attack methods. Although the demon beasts are physically powerful, the humans are quick-witted.

Even if the two Core Formation cultivators from the Bamboo Creek Sect couldn't kill the Azure Cloud Flood Dragon, they could still save their lives thanks to their years of accumulated skills.

As long as the Core Formation cultivator from the Bamboo Creek Sect can hold off this exceptionally ferocious Azure Cloud Flood Dragon, the other cultivators might be able to use their own strength to slay all these demonic beasts.

Two days later, three Foundation Establishment cultivators from Qinglian Island, Song Hongshu, Song Zhiya, and Song Daoxuan, led a hundred clan cultivators to the Yunling Mountains.

The battle took place on a river flowing down from the Yunling Mountains. This river is called the Qingjiang River, and like the other rivers in this cultivation world, it eventually flows into the Yunmeng Marsh.

The place where the army of cultivators and the army of demon beasts meet is filled with countless tents and countless banners. The two sides are divided by the Qingjiang River. At present, the forces of both sides have not yet been fully assembled, so they are holding back.

As time passed, the cultivation forces on the Zhuxi Sect's side had almost fully assembled.

The Zhuxi Sect gathered Foundation Establishment cultivators from various factions in a huge tent.

Inside the tent was a member of the Mu clan at the early stage of Foundation Establishment named Mu Zitong. He was the only remaining member of the Mu clan at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, besides the clan head, Mu Ziheng, who was at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

Since the entire Mu Clan's cultivation world suffered a beast tide attack at the border ahead of schedule, resulting in the loss of Foundation Establishment cultivators, and then the Gu Clan and Wang Clan attacked resource points.

This Mu Zitong is the only Foundation Establishment cultivator in the Mu Clan who can participate in the war.

This time, Mu Ziheng had only one request for this family elder: that he must save his life, no matter what his performance was on the battlefield.

Mu Zitong, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, leaned close to Song Zhiya, a member of the Song family from Qinglian Island, and whispered in his ear, though it was unclear what they were saying.

Among the crowd, Wang and Gu occasionally cast disapproving glances at Mu and Song.

Mu Zitong noticed this aura and was furious, her expression turning extremely ugly.

On the other side of Songzhi Cliff, several Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Jiang clan of Tianchu Immortal Continent also had a pleasant conversation with him.

Soon, under the watchful eyes of the crowd and surrounded by countless Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Bamboo Creek Sect, two powerful cultivators emerged.

These two people were none other than the sect leader of the Bamboo Creek Sect, Master Zuo, Zuo Hongyang, and a Core Formation cultivator, Master Liu, Liu Hanjun, who was proficient in array formations.

Zuo Hongyang remained silent, his expression indifferent.

Liu Hanjun, dressed in a moon-white palace robe, exuded a gentle and refined air. She glanced at the crowd and noticed that most of the cultivation forces from Yunmeng Immortal Continent had arrived.

She then made a hand seal, and a scroll burst into light, revealing the arrangements of the cultivators present and the troop deployment of the opposing demon beasts.

"Gentlemen, in this war, we can only win, we cannot lose. I have only one request: even if it means dying in battle, do your utmost to kill these demonic beasts. Your battle achievements will be recorded on the conscription order. After the great battle, you can exchange your merit points for various cultivation resources, and even resource points..."

"Fellow Daoists, after this battle, regardless of life or death, your names will be etched in history. My Zhuxi Sect will never let down any fellow Daoist who has contributed to the sect..."

Although Liu Hanjun was one of the three renowned Core Formation True Immortals in the Bamboo Creek Sect, he was usually not a talkative person. However, in this crucial battle, when facing a formidable enemy, Liu Hanjun suddenly became more talkative and spoke with such fervor and passion that the cultivators present felt an urge to fight to the death for him.

In fact, Liu Hanjun's words were very effective, influencing the emotions of most of the cultivators present.

Even Song Hongshu and Song Zhiya, who were standing next to Song Daoxuan, showed expressions of righteous indignation.

However, Song Daoxuan, dressed in a blue Taoist robe, remained completely calm amidst the crowd.

After Liu Hanjun finished speaking, Zuo Hongyang, the sect leader of Zhuxi Sect, took the lead in leading some cultivators from Zhuxi Sect to the front line of the battlefield.

Following them were the three major Core Formation Immortal Clans of Liu, Zuo, and Du, along with the seven Foundation Establishment Immortal Clans of Yunmeng, the five Foundation Establishment Immortal Clans of Tianchu, and other scattered forces, who marched towards the front line in a grand procession with the army.

The cultivators were all extremely cautious, crawling along the riverbed, fearing that the demonic beasts might suddenly launch an attack from somewhere.

However, as they got very close to the demon beast camp, an extremely powerful divine sense instantly enveloped the group of cultivators from the Bamboo Creek Sect.
