I, a centenarian, sweep through the gates of immortality.

Just as Lin Feng was plotting how to destroy Xuanqing Temple, Liu An led his men to their doorstep.

Lingyuan Sect Leader Liu An and all the elders were on high alert, guarding the entrance to Lingyuan to the death.

Seeing Venerable Xuanming's murderous aura, Liu An did not rush to make a move. Instead, he bowed respectfully and spoke politely.

"Venerable Xuanming, our Lingyuan Sect and Xuanqing Temple have never had any enmity, so why are you being so aggressive?"

"The Banner of All Spirits that you speak of, we have not only never obtained it, but we have never even heard of it."

Everything Liu An said was true.

Only the prestigious sects knew about Lin Feng's Myriad Spirits Banner; the Demonic Sect did not participate in the siege of Lin Feng at the time and therefore knew nothing about it.

The young disciples of Xuanqing Temple have almost all died out, and even Venerable Xuanming could not find the Yin Pill to prolong his life. The entire sect is on the verge of destruction.

At this moment, Venerable Xuanming was no longer willing to listen to any explanations. He had already located the position of the Myriad Spirits Banner through a secret technique and was certain that it was there. In his anger, he pointed at Liu An and scolded him.

"Still dare to argue?"

"You demonic cultivators, a bunch of rats in the gutter, how dare you steal treasures from my Xuanqing Temple?"

"Hand over the Banner of Ten Thousand Spirits right now, or I'll raze this place to the ground!"

With that, Venerable Xuanming waved his sleeve, and a surge of gray spiritual energy swept over, instantly enveloping the large lake where Lingyuan was located.

Seeing that Venerable Xuanming was about to make a move, Liu An's expression also became serious.

If it were a one-on-one fight, he would not be afraid of Venerable Xuanming.

Even the entire Xuanqing Temple, after suffering heavy damage, is no longer a threat to them.

The problem is that Venerable Xuanming will not fight alone. Once the two sides start fighting, they will become the target of all the prestigious sects.

Once surrounded and attacked, even if they don't die, they will be severely injured.

Moreover, the City of Sighs is about to open, and they don't want to cause any trouble at this time.

With no other choice, Liu An had to endure it.

He took a deep breath and spoke to Venerable Xuanming.

"Since Your Excellency has confirmed that the Myriad Spirits Banner is within our sect, please come in and inspect it."

"If you can actually find it, or even just the slightest clue, we're willing to accept the punishment!"

Seeing their sect leader humiliated in this way, the disciples of the Demonic Sect were extremely indignant.

But they had no choice; lacking the strength, they could only endure it.

Seeing this, Venerable Xuanming snorted coldly and gave a wink to the elders beside him.

The elders understood and immediately entered the Spirit Abyss.

"Give me a thorough inspection."

"You must find this Banner of All Souls for me!"

All the disciples of the Demonic Sect stood there helplessly, allowing the people from Xuanqing Temple to search them, but dared not do anything to stop them.

The elders of Xuanqing Temple used the Soul Searching Mirror to locate the Myriad Spirits Flag.

However, at that moment, the elder holding the Soul Searching Mirror suddenly screamed, the Soul Searching Mirror fell from his hand, and he coughed up blood and died instantly.

"what!"

The remaining people at Xuanqing Temple were terrified and retreated hastily.

"You demonic cultivators, you're courting death!"

Upon witnessing the tragic death of his junior brother, Venerable Xuanming was enraged and charged directly at Liu An.

Liu An was also shocked and wanted to explain.

"It wasn't us who did it! Someone must be trying to sow discord between us!"

Venerable Xuanming was already furious, and having witnessed the tragic deaths of the few remaining elders of Xuanqing Temple, he was no longer willing to listen to any explanations and charged directly at Liu An.

"Go to hell and explain to my junior brother!"

Although Venerable Xuanming's lifespan is nearing its end, his cultivation level remains undiminished, still at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

He charged towards Liu An with all his might. All the elders of the Demonic Sect, including Liu An, were terrified and could only hastily prepare for battle.

"Oh no!"

"We are not lambs to the slaughter! Let's fight!"

Liu An and several elders of the Demonic Sect quickly reached a consensus to fight the people of Xuanqing Temple to the death.

Seeing that the two sides had already started fighting, Lin Feng, who had been hiding in the shadows, sneered and muttered to himself.

"Well played."

"How can I live if you don't fight!"

Lin Feng knew very well that once the people from Xuanqing Temple came to his door and located the Myriad Spirits Flag on him, the people from Lingyuan would not protect him and might even try to seize it. Lin Feng's only way to survive was to provoke a fight between the two sides and kill the people from Xuanqing Temple in the chaos.

Only in this way can Lin Feng survive.

Now that the two sides have begun a major battle, Lin Feng's task is to incite as many people as possible to wipe out the Xuanqing Temple.

Lin Feng rushed out and shouted at the still-stunned members of the Demonic Sect.

"These scum are clearly here to wipe us out. Are we going to be lambs to the slaughter?"

The members of the Demonic Sect also came to their senses and joined the battle.

Lin Feng was well aware that it would be very difficult for Lingyuan Sect to wipe out Xuanqing Temple and kill Venerable Xuanming with just their own strength; they would need help.

Lin Feng then shouted again.

"Quickly, go and invite fellow cultivators from all sects to come and help!"

These demonic cultivators nodded repeatedly, and some of them quickly left Lingyuan to seek help from other demonic sects.

At this moment, Lin Feng's junior brothers also rushed to the front lines, seemingly ready to join the battle.

Lin Feng quickly stopped them and said anxiously.

"With your cultivation levels, are you just throwing your lives away by charging in?"

The group said somewhat awkwardly.

"A great battle is about to begin. If we don't contribute, won't we be ridiculed by others?"

What they were actually worried about wasn't being ridiculed, but rather being isolated and held accountable afterward.

Because their master died in battle, if they don't contribute when the sect is in trouble, they will definitely be held accountable after the battle ends.

Lin Feng understood their thoughts, smiled, and pointed to the large lake.

"We can't help, but that doesn't mean we won't do our part."

"Come with me."

Lin Feng's goal was to exterminate everyone in Xuanqing Temple.

Since his cultivation level was insufficient to participate in the battle personally, the best strategy was to surround and kill the wounded people behind Xuan Qingchuan's retreat.

Lin Feng led several junior brothers and quickly left Lingyuan. When they arrived at the outer edge of the great lake, Lin Feng sneered twice as he watched the battle inside intensify.

"Just wait, someone will be injured and rush out soon."

"As soon as you see anyone from Xuanqing Temple come out, kill them without question!"

The other junior disciples understood Lin Feng's intentions and nodded in agreement.

"Senior brother, you're truly brilliant!"

"We're not strong enough to go in and risk our lives. Just picking up heads outside is a great achievement in itself."
