Dragon Sword Sect

Dragon Sword Sect.

A medium-sized force in the Flame River Path, second only to the overlord, the Heavenly Fire Sect.

Although they are only a medium-sized force, their size is by no means weak because they have been supported by the Heavenly Fire Sect for nearly a thousand years to deal with the Creation Sect.

Not only are there two Celestial Immortals, Long Xingyu and Feng Daoqi, but there are also five other peak True Immortals and supreme True Immortals, such as Long Congyun, and ten ordinary True Immortals to top-tier True Immortals.

As for the lower-level Dao-proving Immortals, Mahayana Saints, and Returning Void Celestial Person, their numbers are even greater. Although they cannot compare with the Heavenly Fire Sect, they are twice as many as the Creation Sect.

It is no exaggeration to say that the entire sect was at its peak in the Flame River Dao.

At this moment, atop a building in this sect that is said to be forged from the bones of a true dragon, in a courtyard with an area of only a hundred square meters, the two Heavenly Immortals and fifteen True Immortals of the Dragon Sword Sect were almost all gathered.

Even though some of the true immortals were sitting in key resource points and cities, they still attended the meeting through projection, avatars, and other means.

The two celestial immortals, Long Xingyu and Feng Daoqi, glanced at the fifteen people in the arena.

The fifteen great immortals were all highly talented, but neither of them felt at ease.

The topic at hand was even somewhat pessimistic. "You've already seen the intelligence we just received. Elder Jiang Yufeng of the Creation Sect led over a hundred powerful war weapons to destroy the Heavenly Fire Sect. Almost all the True Immortals in the Heavenly Fire Sect were killed, the sect's mountain gate was nearly razed to the ground, and several of its grotto-heavens have now fallen into the hands of the Creation Sect..."

"The Heavenly Fire Sect... was it really destroyed by the Creation Gate just like that!? Could it be... a feigned weakness tactic by the Heavenly Fire Sect!?"

"Feigning weakness? To feign weakness, they've dragged their own sect into this mess, even causing the demise of the Purple Flame Dao Master? And they still refuse to accept the reality before them? The Creation Sect has endured for so many years, and clearly they're no longer planning to tolerate it; they're about to sweep through the Flame River Dao!"

"How could this happen? How could such a large sect like the Heavenly Fire Sect suddenly disappear?"

The True Immortal Elders seemed unable to accept the cruel reality before them.

"Now is not the time to talk about these things."

Feng Daoqi glanced at the dozen or so True Immortals in the arena with some dissatisfaction. "Given the grudge between the Creation Sect and our Dragon Sword Sect, their next target will inevitably be us. So... let's all share our thoughts on how to deal with the Creation Sect's attack."

The dozen or so True Immortals looked at each other, unsure how to respond.

After a long while, a True Immortal finally spoke up, "Can our Dragon Sword Sect's mountain gate withstand the attack of the Creation Sect...?"

After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something and immediately said, "Doesn't the Mo family care? The Mo family is the overlord of the Northern Region. Right now, the Creation Sect launched a war without the Mo family's permission, wasting spiritual energy and destroying the Heavenly Fire Sect. Doesn't the Mo family step in to punish them?"

"The Mohist school?"

Feng Daoqi shook his head. "On the one hand, the Heavenly Fire Sect provoked the Creation Sect first, and the Creation Sect was forced to retaliate. On the other hand, the Creation Sect did not expend too much spiritual energy..."

"Alright, what's there to hide now?"

Long Xingyu waved his hand to interrupt Feng Daoqi's euphemistic statement, "When Jiang Yufeng, the Supreme Elder of the Creation Sect, broke through the Heavenly Fire Sect, he displayed power no less than that of a Xuanxian. In addition, the destructive power of those war weapons is comparable to that of a peak True Immortal. The Creation Sect has more than two hundred of them. Faced with the Creation Sect, which is so powerful that it is no less than a regional overlord, even if the Mo family really wants to do something, they must call on all the forces in the Northern Region to take action together."

He said coldly, "It will be at least two or three months before the Mo family completes its call to action to mobilize other forces in the Northern Region. We don't know what will happen to the Creation Sect in two or three months, but for our Dragon Sword Sect... and even for other forces in the entire Flame River Road, there is no other way but to surrender, flee, or be destroyed."

The faces of the True Immortals present turned pale upon hearing what their Supreme Elder had said.

"Mystic Immortal!"

"There are also war weapons with destructive power comparable to a peak True Immortal... The key is that there are more than two hundred of those war weapons..."

How can we fight like this?

For a moment, the dozen or so True Immortals looked at each other, all of them wanting to back down, but none of them dared to reveal it immediately.

Just then, the communication jade talisman on Long Xingfeng, the sect leader of the Dragon Sword Sect, vibrated slightly.

After sensing the information in the communication jade talisman with his divine sense, he immediately changed his expression and exclaimed, "Not good! After occupying the Heavenly Fire Sect, the Creation Sect has not stopped for a moment and is already planning to wipe out all forces within the Flame River Dao territory. Our Dragon Sword Sect is the first to be targeted. Right now, the Supreme Elder of the Creation Sect, Jiang Yufeng, has led a group of war weapons and is heading straight for our Dragon Sword Sect."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed simultaneously.

"Our first target is indeed our Dragon Sword Sect."

The peak True Immortal Long Congyun recalled the scene when he had dealt with Jiang Yufeng from afar, and his face turned pale. He could no longer help but say, "As long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood. The Creation Sect destroyed the Heavenly Fire Sect and challenged the prestige of the Northern Region's overlord, the Mo Family. The Mo Family will definitely not let this go. We just need to wait for a while, and the Creation Sect will be defeated by the Mo Family. Therefore, what we really need to do now is to do our best to preserve the strength of our Dragon Sword Sect, instead of becoming cannon fodder before the two overlords go to war!"

After he spoke, the other True Immortals echoed, "That's right, if Heaven wants to destroy someone, it will make them go mad! Now is the time when the Creation Sect is most arrogant, but they will not be able to keep up this arrogance for long. We just need to avoid their sharp edge, and the Mo family will drive them into the abyss."

"Watch him build his magnificent mansion, watch him host lavish banquets, and watch his mansion crumble! The fate of the Creation Sect was already sealed. Why should we fight him to the death at this time and waste our lives?"

Although Long Xingyu and Feng Daoqi were somewhat prepared, they still felt uncomfortable upon hearing this.

However, the Creation Sect was able to quickly defeat even the Heavenly Fire Sect, so the Dragon Sword Sect was far inferior to the Heavenly Fire Sect.

If they choose to fight to the death in a battle where victory is nowhere in sight, it is not heroism, but foolishness.

Furthermore...

The two Supreme Elders of the Celestial Realm were actually thinking of "temporarily avoiding the limelight".

"Then take all the valuables and leave as soon as possible. At the same time, let the True Disciple and protectors break up into smaller groups, hide, and survive this great calamity."

Feng Daoqi said slowly, "The Creation Sect won't be able to be arrogant for long."

"Yes."

The True Immortal Elders, relieved to receive the Supreme Elder's order that they no longer needed to fight the Creation Sect to the death, breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Long Xingfeng, the sect leader of the Dragon Sword Sect, hurriedly said, "Elder, Jiang Yufeng will probably arrive soon. There's not enough time to pack our valuables..."

"We can leave other things behind, but we must bring the spirit crystals. Otherwise, once we hide away and lose the nourishment of the spiritual energy in our cave, we will find it difficult to even maintain our own cultivation level."

Feng Daoqi waved his hands repeatedly.

Long Xingfeng wanted to say something more, but the two Grand Elders had already left at the same time to pack up their belongings and inform their closest disciples.

Considering that although he is the sect leader, the two supreme elders interfere in almost everything within the sect...

In the end, he could only sigh.

However, even though he knew that time could not be wasted any longer, he still had to fulfill his duties as sect leader one last time.

Immediately, he summoned his disciples. "Dragon Sword Sect is about to face an unprecedented calamity. Order all elders, protectors, deacons, and disciples to evacuate the sect as quickly as possible. Those who cannot evacuate should hide themselves as soon as possible and under no circumstances should their identities be revealed... Forget about material possessions, the faster the better!"

"Yes, Master!"

The disciples all agreed at the same time.

One of the female disciples asked worriedly, "Master, what about you...?"

"I am the Sect Master of the Dragon Sword Sect. If the people of the Creation Sect truly wish to vent their hatred for what we have done to the Creation Sect over the years, then come at me. Otherwise, their resentment will remain unfulfilled, and they may ultimately turn against our disciples..."

"Master!"

"Go quickly!"

Long Xingfeng said sternly.

"Master... take care!"

The disciples, their faces filled with sorrow, bowed and left.

As soon as the order was given, the entire Dragon Sword Sect descended into chaos at a visible speed.

As Long Xingfeng witnessed this scene, a sense of indescribable desolation appeared on his face.

Before long, a strong energy fluctuation erupted within the sect.

It looked as if two true immortal elders were fighting.

Long Xingfeng was taken aback and immediately flew over, only to see Long Congyun using his Divine Ability to suppress another top-tier True Immortal.

"Why... why haven't you left yet!?"

Long Xingfeng was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Stop!"

Upon hearing this, the top-tier True Immortal immediately shouted, "Sect Master, you've come at the perfect time! Come and judge this for me! Long Congyun borrowed a high-grade Dao artifact from me, and I asked him to repay it. Not only did he refuse to return it, but he also attacked me! This is simply outrageous!"

"It's not that I don't want to return it, it's just that one of my disciples took that Dao artifact to another place, and I don't have it with me, so how can I return it? But he won't let it go, and even threatened me. Does he really think that I, Long Congyun, am easy to bully?!"

Long Congyun retorted sharply.

"You guys...you all..."

Long Xingfeng's breathing became erratic, and he took several deep breaths to calm himself down. At the same time, he shouted angrily, "What are you arguing about external things at a time like this?! With a formidable enemy at hand, why aren't you running for your lives?!"

At the same time, he also understood that the reason why that top-level True Immortal was so insistent on making Long Congyun return the Dao artifact at this time was because he was worried that Long Congyun would be purged by the Creation Sect and lose his life.

It should be noted that Long Congyun was definitely the most proactive in taking action against the Creation Sect.

If the Creation Sect wants to search for the True Immortals of the Dragon Sword Sect to vent its hatred, Long Congyun will be the first to be targeted.

"What's all the noise about! Do you think I, the Supreme Elder, don't exist?"

At this moment, another powerful yet slightly weak aura broke through the air and arrived.

It was none other than the Celestial Dragon Star Rain.

"Elder, why... why haven't you left yet? It's been so long..."

Long Xingfeng was stunned.

"A celestial being merges their Dao Fruit into their grotto-heaven. Do you think it's easy to separate the Dao Fruit from the grotto-heaven again? Besides, based on the distance between the Creation Gate and our Dragon Sword Sect, it will take Jiang Yufeng at least half an hour to get here. What's the rush?"

Long Xingyu said unhappily.

"Who... who said Jiang Yufeng started from the Creation Gate? He's at the Heavenly Fire Sect! The Heavenly Fire Sect is less than half the distance from our Dragon Sword Sect! Besides... his combat strength is comparable to a Profound Immortal! How can you measure his speed with the standards of a Celestial Immortal or even a True Immortal!?"

Long Xingfeng looked completely incredulous.

At this moment, he could hardly comprehend how the Dragon Sword Sect had managed to grow to such a scale!

"Sky Fire Sect!?"

Long Xingyu's expression changed. "Why didn't you say so earlier..."

The next moment, a massive aura, carrying intense and dazzling energy fluctuations, rolled in.

Before the person even arrived, the earth-shaking tremor had already spread, as if a meteorite was passing through the atmosphere at supersonic speed.

Instantly, Long Xingfeng's face turned ashen.

An unprecedented sense of powerlessness and exhaustion welled up inside me.

Such a Dragon Sword Sect...

I'm annoyed.

Destroy it.
