The Witch and Demon Clans will go to war with the Immortal Court.

No wonder there are no cultivators to be seen in the East Sea.

At this moment, they are either hiding in the temple or have already fled far away.

Cihang had long known that the Immortal Court and the Lich Kings would have a battle, but she hadn't expected it to be at this time.

This was probably the first and only time the liches joined forces.

They are rivals, and they are determined to conquer the Primordial World.

But at this very moment, there exists a legitimate entity of heaven and earth recognized by Hongjun.

They naturally could not tolerate the Dong Wang Gong.

Before they could fight each other, they tacitly agreed to eliminate the Dong Wang Gong.

They hadn't attacked Dong Wang Gong before, not because Dong Wang Gong was particularly powerful, but because they were wary of Hongjun.

After several tests, confirming that Hongjun would no longer interfere in the affairs of the Primordial World, they finally made their move against Dong Wang Gong.

The fate of the Dong Wang Gong was already foreseeable.

Although Cihang is not directly involved in this matter, it still has some impact.

He originally planned to find a random island to cultivate in seclusion, but now that a great war is about to break out, he has to be cautious.

Otherwise, if you accidentally get involved, it will be a real problem.

Even so, he had no intention of leaving the East China Sea.

Such a large-scale battle is a rare sight, and perhaps we can take advantage of the chaos to gain some benefits.

Just as Cihang was about to find a secluded island, the conch shell in her hand emitted a stream of light.

Cihang cast a spell, and spiritual energy gathered on the conch shell, transforming into a projection of the Dragon King of the East Sea.

Conch shells are communication artifacts crafted by the Dragon Clan, so naturally they can communicate with each other.

To Cihang's surprise, a message arrived as soon as he took out the conch shell.

It seems the Dragon Clan have been trying to contact him all along!

"Fellow Daoist Cihang, we are currently in the East China Sea!"

Upon seeing Cihang, the Dragon King of the East Sea hurriedly inquired.

"Greetings, fellow Daoist. I am currently in the East Sea."

Fellow Daoist, is there something urgent?

Cihang spoke up to inquire.

"Fellow Daoist, the Lich Kings have now launched a large-scale invasion of the East Sea, and turmoil is about to ensue."

"If you have no urgent business, why Tathagata my Dragon Palace for a gathering?"

The Dragon King of the East Sea said somewhat anxiously.

They had finally managed to befriend a powerful Great Luo expert, and they couldn't let Ci Cihang get involved in this mess.

Neither the Witch and Demon Clans, nor the Immortal Court, are people they can afford to provoke.

"Then thank you very much, fellow Daoist!"

After some deliberation, Cihang agreed to the Dragon King of the East Sea's request.

At this moment, there is truly no safer place in the East Sea than the Dragon Palace.

After putting away the conch shell, Cihang headed straight for the underwater dragon palace.

As they entered the ocean depths, Cihang's feelings became increasingly profound.

Not only were the sea spirits hiding, but even the ordinary sea creatures exuded an aura of fear and anxiety.

It was clearly affected by the chilling atmosphere over the East China Sea.

As soon as Cihang entered the Dragon Palace, she saw the Dragon King of the East Sea anxiously waiting outside.

"Fellow Daoist Cihang has finally arrived!"

Upon seeing Cihang, the Dragon King of the East Sea breathed a sigh of relief.

"It was Cihang who made the Dragon King worry!"

Although she knew the Dragon King had his own plans, Cihang still felt a warmth in her heart.

"It's good that you've returned, fellow Daoist. The Wu Witch and Demon Clans are pressing each other closely, and we don't know when war will break out."

Fellow Daoist, you should stay in the Dragon Palace for the time being!

The Dragon King led Cihang into the Dragon Palace, and then completely sealed it off.

Then they hid the Dragon Palace inside the Sea Eye.

That way, even if someone wanted to find them, they wouldn't be able to.

The Dragon Clan is said to be the rulers of the East Sea, but who can they actually rule?

The Dragon Clan of today would not dare to participate in such a great war.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, fellow Daoist. Please arrange a quiet room for me, as I'll be going into seclusion for a while longer!"

Cihang thanked the Dragon King again.

"It's nothing, fellow Daoist, no need to be so polite."

Without asking any further questions, the Dragon King directly arranged a magnificent palace for Cihang.

The Dragon King showed great respect for Cihang in every way.

Before the Dragon King left, Cihang also gave him instructions, though it was just to inform him about the situation in the East Sea.

The Dragon King immediately assured him that there was no problem whatsoever.

Even with the Dragon Palace sealed off, the Dragon Clan still has its own ways of understanding the situation in the East Sea.

After seeing the Dragon King off, Cihang set up a restriction in the main hall and began to continue refining the Primordial Heaven Measuring Ruler.

Such a precious treasure must be completely refined as soon as possible before Cihang can be at ease.

He did not enter the fairyland this time.

With the fusion of the fairyland, it has become his trump card for survival.

He will not reveal himself easily unless absolutely necessary.

Furthermore, a major battle is about to erupt in the East China Sea, and he needs to be informed in a timely manner.

Cihang continued refining the spiritual treasure while receiving news from the East Sea.

In fact, the clash between the three major forces had already begun when the Witch and Demon Clans entered the East Sea.

As their power expanded, the Witch and Demon Clans became increasingly powerful.

As soon as they entered the East Sea, they began to besiege and kill the Immortal Court cultivators.

The cultivators of the Immortal Court also retreated again and again.

It's just that the true powerhouses of both races haven't made their move yet.

They are giving Dong Wang Gong time to gather all his strength.

Their intention was also to crush the power of the Immortal Court in one fell swoop.

Inside the Imperial Immortal Hall on Penglai Island.

Despite the gathering of immortals, the room was eerily silent, and no one dared to utter a word.

The Dong Wang Gong, seated at the head of the table, had an even more somber expression.

He once had lofty ambitions, but failed to unify the Primordial World despite the achievements of the three races.

Hongjun also gave him this opportunity, appointing him as the Head of Male Immortals.

He was overjoyed, as if the position of a saint was already beckoning to him.

But what followed was a series of setbacks for him.

His Head of Male Immortals was only acknowledged by those low-ranking wandering immortals.

The Three Thousand Guests of Zixiao Palace ignored him completely.

When the Immortal Court was first established, the Witch and Demon Clans rose to power one after another.

Compared to the two races, his Immortal Court seemed like a mere game.

It has the name of legitimacy, but not the substance of legitimacy.

Why did Hongjun appoint him Head of Male Immortals, yet not provide him with protection or assistance?

Even the Saint Position, which he thought he had it in the bag, did not belong to him.

It's not that he's blind to the reality of the world, but rather that he's unwilling to accept it.

They then began actively recruiting strong individuals, but the results were not ideal.

In the end, they only controlled the area of the East China Sea.

Now, the Witch and Demon Clans are even setting their sights on the Immortal Court.

He knew perfectly well that the Immortal Court was simply no match for them.

Even he was the same.

"Alright, you may all step back. We need not concern ourselves with the forces outside. Focus all our efforts on defending the Immortal Court!"

The Dong Wang Gong dismissed the immortals in the main hall, not expecting them to offer any advice.

"To resist the Witch and Demon Clans, we still need to find outside help!"

The Dong Wang Gong rode away from the Immortal Court in a beam of light.

Its first target was the Dragon Clan.

Everyone knows that the Dragon Clan is weak, but only these top cultivators know it.

The Dragon Clan also possesses a very strong foundation, which is why they allow the Dragon Clan to occupy the four seas.

Even though the Dragon Clan is powerless to control the four seas, they are still nominally the masters of the four seas, occupying the fortune of the four seas.

However, he would have to pay a considerable price to get the Dragon Clan to reveal their true strength.

Moreover, given that they are both located in the East Sea, can the Dragon Clan truly remain uninvolved?
