Chapter 24 Cloud Soaring Sect 7
Chapter 24 Cloud Soaring Sect 7
Li Weixin communicated with his elder brother via text message, which was more in line with Li Weixin's limited understanding.
His elder brother, Li Weichang, knew more about the matter. When he saw the message, he was terrified and immediately notified the family elders.
The family elders were also shocked. The ancestor had come out; this was truly a matter of life and death for the Li family.
If the five major sects do not accept their explanation, the Li family will be completely finished. No one in the cultivation world can survive the joint attack of the five major sects.
For example, the Jingxin Pavilion was once banished to the mortal realm; there's no trace of them left in the cultivation world.
This time, the cultivation world sent people down to the mortal realm, and the three great dynasties were helpless. The Tranquil Heart Pavilion was completely eradicated, with no signs of resurgence.
After much discussion, no good solution could be found, and finally, the Li family patriarch spoke up.
“Since Weixin’s master said he would plead for us, we should also show our stance. Let’s set off now, I’ll go with you.”
Although it seemed like they discussed many things, the time was short. The Li family arrived at the Cloud Soaring Sect that same day.
That manager has been dismissed; he caused the Li family so much trouble that they can't survive now.
The other party also knew that he had made a big mistake and had already committed suicide. He hoped that the Li family would not implicate his family.
When the sect leader of Yunxiao Sect heard what Qingxu Venerable and the other two told him, his forehead twitched.
The sect market has always been a place where disciples of the sect sell what they have refined themselves, but that doesn't mean they don't bring in things from the outside world.
For example, talismans, besides their offensive and cultivation uses, are also highly entertaining.
Some talisman masters enjoy crafting nonsensical talismans, which makes them quite popular among sect disciples.
Unexpectedly, such a huge blunder occurred, and it's unknown how many disciples in the sect purchased this talisman.
This thing really can damage the foundation.
It's a terrible legacy. He was also very dissatisfied with the sale of Wanduobao Pavilion. How could they sell it without checking it first?
If any of his sect's disciples were crippled as a result, he would be tempted to wipe out the Li family.
However, True Monarch Qingxu spoke up: "This matter happened tens of thousands of years ago. It hasn't happened in the cultivation world for a long time, so I'm sure the Treasure Pavilion is unaware of it."
"My disciple and the second young master of Duobao Pavilion discovered this today while strolling through the market and promptly reported it. If the other party truly intended this scheme, the Yunxiao Sect has likely been pursuing this matter for quite some time. If it were to erupt, the Yunxiao Sect would likely suffer heavy losses."
The sect leader took a deep breath and calmed down. "Your Excellency is right. My Cloud Soaring Sect owes your disciple a favor."
However, he didn't mention whether he would forgive the Li family. Qingxu Venerable carefully observed the other party and found that he was no longer as angry as before. He didn't say anything more, only stating...
"Now that we've discovered it, we must act swiftly to prevent it from harming more disciples. What does the Sect Master think?"
The Cloud Soaring Sect Master nodded: "What Venerable Qingxu says is true, An Jing."
"Master," the sect's eldest disciple said respectfully.
"Take the sect leader's order and go to the forbidden area to ask the ancestors for help. Be sure to request that they send a few Mahayana Immortal Lords to go with us."
The sect leader had also heard that the Guiyuan Sect had encountered a Mahayana-stage demon when they came to participate in the sect competition. So he wanted to be on the safe side.
"Yes, Master." An Jing took the token and flew swiftly towards the forbidden area.
"If the Guiyuan Sect needs the three of us to intervene, please feel free to ask," said Venerable Qingxu.
"The Li family is, after all, the family of my little disciple. Since they have made a mistake, I, as their master, naturally have to take some responsibility. If you need anything, please feel free to ask," said Venerable Qianli.
"If we need Your Majesty's assistance, we will certainly not refuse. As for the Li family, we will have to see their attitude," the Cloud Soaring Sect Master offered his solution.
If the Li family is cooperative enough, they might be willing to give in for the sake of the three of them.
Li Weixin, who was below, breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this talisman was only being sold within the Yunxiao Sect for the time being. If it really broke through the border, then the Yunxiao Sect Master would not be so easy to talk to.
With several major sects exerting pressure simultaneously, the Li family is definitely doomed.
On the other side, the forbidden area has already sent two Mahayana Immortal Lords, in addition to ten Tribulation Transcending Venerable Lords.
"Master, the Li family patriarch is requesting an audience outside the sect," An Jing reported as he entered.
"Summon them in! There are tens of millions of tickets; the Li family must give an explanation!" the Cloud Soaring Sect Master said in a very unpleasant tone.
"Greetings, Sect Master of Yunxiao Sect!" The Li family patriarch was a Mahayana cultivator, and upon meeting the Sect Master of Yunxiao Sect, he displayed an extremely humble attitude.
As for the demeanor of a Mahayana cultivator, forget about it. At this moment, the most important thing is whether we can appease the Cloud Soaring Sect and protect the Li family.
"When we received Weixin's letter, we couldn't believe it. We never expected that Wanbaoge under our command would commit such a grave mistake. We hurriedly came to apologize to the sect leader. Whatever consequences this talisman caused, the Li family will bear all the responsibility."
After saying that, he presented a generous gift.
The sect leader of Yunxiao Sect was very satisfied with his attitude. "Wait a moment, the sect's supreme elder will lead us to wipe out that hideout."
"This filthy scoundrel has implicated the Li family in committing wrongdoings. Today, the Li family has also brought a considerable number of people. Please allow us to take the lead and atone for our sins with merit." The Li family patriarch breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said.
"With the three Mahayana Immortal Lords taking action, success is assured. I will wait here for your good news." The Cloud Soaring Sect Master relaxed his brows.
"Thank you for your magnanimity, Sect Master. The Li family is deeply grateful!" said the Li family patriarch at the opportune moment.
This time, when the den was wiped out, Venerable Qingxu saw that several of his disciples wanted to go, and since there was a Celestial Lord present, there was no danger.
Let these little chicks see blood too.
In the world of cultivation, a stable environment isn't the only way for people to grow; being overly protected isn't good either.
Qin Che and his group of seven were naturally very excited and happy, not to mention Cheng Jiu, a junior disciple who had only recently joined the sect.
Huo Yan stayed in his master's peak. His master was quite a homebody and would not come out unless absolutely necessary.
Qin Che could only leave the sect to have some fun when he received such a mission during the annual recruitment of disciples.
He hadn't had a chance to gain experience since reaching the Nascent Soul stage. This should be a pretty good experience for him.
The Foundation Establishment disciples who couldn't fly were led by their master, while Cao Hongsheng followed his two Nascent Soul stage senior brothers.
The procession, led by two immortal lords and ten venerable lords, was quite magnificent.
Having learned the other party's address, they didn't hesitate at all and rushed straight to where the other party was.
The other side didn't expect the Cloud Soaring Sect to launch a sudden attack, after all, they were really careful.
The demons guarding the entrance were instantly reduced to blood mist by one of the Venerable Lords.
Upon entering, they found themselves in a formation. Venerable Qingxu stepped forward to unravel it, as he was also a ninth-grade formation master.
The more Cheng Jiu learned about her master, the more amazing she felt. Her master seemed to be omnipotent, with high strength and combat power, and had mastered all four arts of immortal cultivation to the highest level.
The formation was like a layer of mist; when the mist dissipated, it revealed a disgusting scene inside.
A sinister black mist enveloped the small courtyard, and further inside was a space expanded by an array.
There was a mummified corpse at the entrance; judging from its appearance and bone age, it had been dead for a long time.
It is speculated that it was that rogue talisman master who was unlucky enough to be carefully targeted by the demons.
As soon as the formation was broken, the demons inside rushed out. The male demons were still incredibly ugly, while the female demons were alluring and beautiful, mostly at the Tribulation Transcending or Mahayana stages, totaling five men and three women.
The leading Mahayana Immortal Lord produced a Rubik's Cube-like object in his hand. The Rubik's Cube slowly stretched towards the sky, and the next second, the entire world of this small courtyard was imprisoned.
"This is a magic-suppressing formula. After all, in a city, a battle between Mahayana cultivators could very well destroy Qingmu City."
This filthy creature loves to wage war in populated cities, causing the deaths of many innocent people and inflicting considerable losses.
Later, a ninth-grade weapon refiner invented this, which locked the heavens and earth, so that the aftershocks of battle would not affect innocent people. "Qingxu Venerable Lord explained.
As the largest city of the Cloud Soaring Sect, Greenwood City has a population of tens of millions. If war breaks out, the entire city will suffer losses of millions, which the Cloud Soaring Sect cannot afford.
The battle has already begun. Although the opposing side has three Mahayana cultivators, they are still no match for the Yuanxiao Sect.
Lord Qingxu handed the person over to Lord Qingyang, and together with Lord Qianli, they went to greet them.
Thunder roared across the sky, and with a single strike, the female demon on the other side was instantly reduced to ashes.
Qingxu Venerable was not to be outdone. A flash of white light appeared, and black blood gushed from the male demon's chest. The next second, the blood froze and shattered, causing the demon to explode.
The group's battle directly tore open the small courtyard, revealing an even dirtier large base below, which was more clearly visible from the sky, especially the eerie altar.
There was also a woman hanging in the blood pool, many cages and guillotines, and finished talismans. I never expected that this kind of paper that could contain the demon circuits was actually made from human blood and skin.
Below, a demon trembled as he drew talismans, trembling from the attack by the Yunxiao Sect cultivators.
The intense black and bright red colors immediately caught the eyes of the disciples. The next second, Cheng Jiu couldn't help but turn away and vomit. The others also looked rather pale.
The demon he was facing pulled something out of his robes. Cheng Jiu, forgetting all about vomiting, patted Qingyang Venerable and pointed in that direction.
"Uncle-Master, Uncle-Master, look and see what he's going to do."
Qingyang Venerable also stepped forward, extending his spiritual energy hand to directly grasp the other party, sealing them and lifting them up.
Upon seeing his actions, the demons resisted even more fiercely.
Several demons even prepared to self-destruct, but unfortunately, the immortal lords who came to surround and suppress them were very experienced in this regard, and the attempt failed.
Lord Qingyang reached out and snatched the talisman from his hand. "What is this? I don't know." The demon looked at the talisman in his hand with a look of horror.
"Uncle-Master, do you think it might be one of those self-destructing talismans?" Cheng Jiu speculated, observing the other person's expression.
"Huh?" After hearing this, Lord Qingyang said, "Then I'll seal it off first."
"Wait a minute, Qingyang." Venerable Qingxu recognized the talisman at a glance and rushed towards the group.
Seeing this, Lord Qianli immediately approached. The demon whose talisman had been stolen cried out in terror, "Don't come any closer!"
A beam of white light burst forth from the talisman, illuminating the sky. The next second, the group vanished before everyone's eyes.
The Great Ascension stage immortal lord who came to arrest them was also somewhat dumbfounded. Meanwhile, the demons, restrained by the group, looked ashen-faced.
"That damned idiot actually teleported those three devils away together! We're doomed!"
"Hey, tell me what that talisman is for?"
"What's the use? Didn't you see it? Teleport!"
"Will these damned filthy worms tell the truth?" A Celestial Lord in the Tribulation Transcending stage poked the other party.
"Hey, look what we caught! It's a demon wizard! There are very few demon wizards, aren't there? They must know some important clues."
He picked up the trembling demon lying on the ground. The demon had a very strange appearance, wearing a huge cloak, but he was not ugly. However, his nose greatly ruined the beauty of his face.
However, among the demons, it is a rather prestigious symbol, said to be able to communicate with their demon god.
Known as wizards, they are extremely rare, and are the most precious beings besides demons.
These wizards, skilled in various forms of witchcraft, once brought considerable disaster to the cultivation world.
The sudden increase in strength of demonic and evil cultivators, as seen in the past, was due to the techniques they were given.
However, the demons have always been very protective of these wizards. They have killed quite a few, but it seems that this is the only real prisoner.
The other person was too cowardly; they simply didn't have the courage to commit suicide.
"Falissa the wizard, what are you doing? To pledge your loyalty to the demon god, you should return to his embrace. How can you be so weak?" A captured Mahayana demon said with exasperation.
"Didn't you already know I was a coward and useless, which is why you sent me through the passage to the cultivation world to die? I dare not, I don't want to die. Whatever you want to know, I can tell you everything, as long as you spare my life."
This wizard was quite righteous when facing the demons, but he still trembled with fear when facing people from the cultivation world.
The immortal lords of the Cloud Soaring Sect had never seen such a bizarre demon race. The cultivation world and the demon race had been fighting for at least a million years, and it was always the cultivation world that had produced traitors.
The demons are quite fierce. They keep their opponents imprisoned and prevent them from dying. If they relax their grip even slightly, the demons will commit suicide, or even be willing to perish together with the enemy.
The demons were so angry they nearly vomited blood. They knew this guy was cowardly, but they never expected him to lack even the slightest bit of demonic courage.
I'm so disgusted. Now I just hope their allies can be a little smarter. Their demon race's million-year plan still needs their help to be realized.
However, when they thought of the group that had been teleported, the word "useless teammates" flashed through the minds of these demons.
I just hope that the strength there is stronger, so that I can defeat those three monsters and become a hero of the demon race.
"Alright, alright, don't forget why we're here. We must destroy all of those talismans." The Great Ascension Immortal Lord said, "Qiyuan, we don't know where Qingxu has been sent. Go back to the sect now and bring the Peak Master of the Array Peak here. We need to destroy this altar."
"Yes, Immortal Lord." The next second, the Tribulation Transcending Venerable Lord was carrying an old man in his hand.
"Master, how come you're still like this after all these years?" the old man called out to the young master with dissatisfaction.
Looking at the white-haired, wrinkled old man, Qi Yuan Zunjun felt utterly humiliated.
He was a pure sword cultivator who took in his first and only disciple when he reached the Dao Integration Realm. The disciple's talent in sword cultivation was not good, but his talent in array cultivation was extraordinary.
Later, he even became the peak master of the formation, and it's unclear what he was thinking.
When he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, he directly transformed into an old man in his sixties or seventies, and even said that this was very consistent with his age and appearance.
Every time the old man called him "master" in an inexplicably affected tone, he felt nauseous and wanted to vomit. He had no self-awareness at all and still thought he was a child.
Because of this rebellious disciple, he never took on another disciple after that.
Furthermore, he didn't want others to know that his disciple was the peak master of the sect's formation peak.
Those unaware of the inside story might assume that the peak master of the Cloud Soaring Sect is the oldest among the peak masters, but in reality, he is the youngest.
"I told you not to call me with such a disgusting voice. Go and destroy this altar!" Qi Yuanjun kicked his disciple in exasperation.
The old man dodged with a speed that belied his appearance, clearly demonstrating considerable skill.
However, his skill in array formations was quite high, and the altar was destroyed in no time.
One by one, wronged souls emerged from the altar and were converted by the revered ruler beside it. Heaven bestowed abundant merit.
The golden light purified all the black energy in the area.
After destroying this place, the immortal lord led his troops to sweep around, collecting the talismans that flowed out of the destroyed place, regardless of their type.
We learned about many demon bases from several captured demons and then carried out a cleanup operation on these bases and strongholds.
The Li family members were also diligent and conscientious, always the first to rush to the front when danger struck. Their attitude was quite sincere, and the Immortal Lord of Yunxiao Sect was very satisfied with them.
The Li family breathed a sigh of relief. They knew that those who were captured and possessed a large number of demonic talismans would be exterminated if they had any connection with the demons.
If you know nothing about it, you'll be imprisoned, your assets will be confiscated, and you'll be sent to a mine to atone for your sins.
The Li family was the luckiest among them. After all, the former were wiped out, and the latter suffered a fate worse than death.
Seeing how decisive and efficient the Cloud Soaring Sect was, the clan elders couldn't help but sigh at the wisdom of their ancestor.
