News from Mo Province

Since the outbreak of the Cold Tide, the Demon Sea has launched a large-scale invasion of the Northern River Region, and subsequently, the Foreign Races of the Savage Wilderness Great Domain have also joined in, sending a large number of powerful warriors to participate in the war.

There are four northern border states in the Northern River Region, from west to east: Qin Province, Qing Province, Xuan Province, and Mo Province. Among them, the Devil Cultivators mainly attack Mo Province, while the Foreign Races of the Savage Wilderness Great Domain are responsible for Xuan Province.

After the war began, led by the Six Desires Red Dust Sect, and with the Sixth Tier Saint Treasure Black Dragon Boat leading the way, the Demon Dao forces advanced like a whirlwind. They first broke through the pass defended by a Fifth-Tier Peak-Grade array, and then drove straight in, reaching the doorstep of the Mo Province overlord, the Myriad Forms Sect.

During the attack on the Myriad Forms Sect, the Red Dust Demon Venerable, Lin Yingyue, used her Sage Manifestation Divine Ability, "Red Dust Purgatory," to fight against the Grand Elder Manifestations Myriad Forms Sect who was controlling Sixth Tier Puppet, and surprisingly gained the upper hand.

However, reinforcements from the Immortal Dao Path arrived quickly, and the two sides engaged in a fierce battle around the Myriad Forms Sect.

Unexpectedly, during this period, the Celestial Person Sword Immortal Chen Qiaosheng actually sided with the Devil Cultivators. Using his self-comprehended Celestial Person Creation Sword, together with the Red Dust Demon Venerable, he first killed the Grand Elder of the Myriad Forms Sect and destroyed the Sixth Tier puppet. Then, he swept through the Puppet and annihilated several Immortal Dao Spirit Transformation, displaying unparalleled power for a time.

In the end, the Demon Dao path prevailed in this battle of the Myriad Forms Sect.

The Myriad Forms Sect's mountain gate was destroyed, its Sage Manifestation warriors perished, and the Nascent Spirit Transformation and Nascent Soul cultivators were even worse off, almost all of whom were killed by Devil Cultivators. The lower-level disciples also suffered heavy losses. If it weren't for the rescue from the Immortal Dao, this great sect that had lasted for ten thousand years would probably have been wiped out.

In this process, the Celestial Person Sword Immortal Chen Qiaosheng undoubtedly played a crucial role. It was also for this reason that Qi Yulong was so polite to Jin Lianri. After all, he was still a long way from being a big shot of that level, and he couldn't afford to offend him.

After recounting all the information he knew, Qi Yulong instructed Jin Lianri to activate the Formation, and with each step covering a hundred feet, he quickly disappeared into the vast night.

After putting away the Two Principles Water-Fire Formation, the two Golden Core from the Gold and Silver Alliance exchanged a glance, both seeing the solemnity in each other's eyes.

"Senior Chen, why are you standing on the side of the Demon Dao?" Zheng Qiufeng clenched his fists, unable to understand Chen Qiaosheng's actions.

"Who knows? Since our Old Ancestor passed away, although Senior Chen still favors our Gold and Silver Alliance, our relationship has become quite distant, and he hasn't visited our mountain gate for a long time. How could we possibly know what he's thinking? And even if we did, what could we do?"

"Since that sword strike from ten thousand miles away hundreds of years ago, Senior Chen owes my Gold and Silver Alliance nothing." Gentle Breeze blew, Jin Lianri's hair fluttered, and his tone was wistful.

"That being said, from the outside, our Gold and Silver Alliance and Senior Chen still appear to have a close relationship. Those forces whose Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivators were killed by Senior Chen can't afford to offend him, so they don't have many concerns about our Gold and Silver Alliance." Zheng Qiufeng's eyes showed worry, and his heart tightened at the thought of being targeted by multiple Immortal Dao forces.

"Heh, it's only targeted at them. As long as Senior Chen is still alive, they won't dare to go too far. Besides, my Gold and Silver Alliance is not what it was hundreds of years ago when it was in dire straits. After resting and recuperating for so long, it's time to show our fangs!" A sharp glint flashed in his eyes as Jin Lianri looked up at the sky, his tone resounding.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Qiufeng glanced at Jin Lianri in surprise, and his impression of this usually carefree and unreliable fellow disciple changed considerably.

Jin Lianri continued, "The key issue now isn't actually those forces whose Spirit Transformation cultivators were wiped out by Senior Chen, but rather the Mountain and River Hall!"

"The Mountain and River Hall?" Zheng Qiufeng's Shen Yi. "You mean..."

"Hehe, in these thirty-four states of the Northern River Region, the true rulers are not the Commandery-Level Power, but the Three Great Sacred Lands, the Twelve Supreme Sects, and the Seven Great Aristocratic Clan! They are the true masters of the Immortal Dao in the Northern River Region!"

"Our Gold and Silver Alliance is subordinate to the Mountain and River Hall. As long as the latter doesn't speak up, other Upper Sects have no right to punish us."

Zheng Qiufeng's eyes lit up. "That makes sense. So our most urgent task is to stabilize the Mountain and River Hall. And coincidentally, we've contributed quite a bit of Cultivation Resources to the Mountain and River Hall over the years. I'm sure the Mountain and River Hall will give us face and protect our Gold and Silver Alliance."

Upon hearing this, Jin Lianri smiled slightly, "That makes sense. Moreover, according to Qi Yulong, among the Nascent Spirit Transformation that Senior Chen killed, there were no elders from the Mountain and River Hall. This makes things even easier!"

"However, these are just our two opinions for now. We don't know what the Grand Elder and the Sect Master think."

"Don't worry about that. If we can all understand this, why wouldn't the Grand Elder and the Sect Master?"

"That's true!"

The two talked for a while longer, and the tension that had been aroused by Qi Yulong's words gradually subsided. Afterward, the two Golden Core cultivators turned and flew back to Purple Moon Mountain.

Upon arriving at the Purple Moon Mountain, Yang Haoyu hurriedly stepped forward, first bowing, and then asked, "Seniors, did the negotiations go smoothly?"

"With the two of us on the task, success is assured!" Jin Lianri said with a faint smile.

Hearing this, Yang Haoyu was finally completely relieved. He then welcomed the two Golden Core cultivators into the Bamboo House with a big smile. A sumptuous feast had already been prepared inside, along with a pot of rare Second-Tier Upper-Grade Spirit Wine.

"You're so thoughtful!" Jin Lianri replied, and after sitting down, he asked with a smile, "But I wonder how things are going with Tianyou? Has young friend Yang received the message?"

"Tianyou's side also achieved great success. The Zhao Household was wiped out, and Zhao Leicong perished. Even if some remnants remain, they are no longer a significant threat." Yang Haoyu couldn't help but smile broadly when talking about this.

With her long-time nemesis, the Zhao Household, finally wiped out, a huge weight was lifted from her shoulders.

From then on, without the Zhao Household's interference, there were not many Foundation Establishment Lineage in Dragon Valley County that could compete with the Yang Household, and they were all concentrated under the Feng Household's command.

In other words, through this action, most of the obstacles on the Yang Household's path to expansion have been cleared. They only need to weather the Cold Tide, and the Lineage's prosperity is just around the corner.

Not only Yang Haoyu could see this, but Jin Lianri and the other two were no exception.

"The Yang Household's rise is undeniable; it seems we need to strengthen our ties." Thinking this through, Jin Lianri spoke with a smile, "We were able to obtain the Divine Ability Stele this time largely thanks to the Yang Household's assistance. Here's what we'll do: when Tianyou returns, I'll give him three days to study the Divine Ability Stele. Which Divine Ability he comprehends will be up to him!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Haoyu's face lit up with joy, and he said earnestly, "Then this junior, on behalf of Tianyou, thanks you for your guidance, senior. Our Yang Household will never forget such kindness!"

"Hehe, young friend Yang, you're too kind. Come, let's drink to the friendship between our two families!"
