Creating Friends Out of Nothing! The Spirit of Xianxia, We Cultivators

Although he dared not delve further into the identity of the powerful Dongfang Huayuan injured Buddha and Devil Dual Cultivator, Chen Dengming still had to immediately inform Zuo Qiu Ling of this crucial information so that the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance could prepare.

With the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance prepared, many Spirit Transmutation Dao Lords will begin their investigations and take precautions.

This is also a way to prevent problems before they occur, and being prepared is beneficial to Four Seas Four Regions.

Chen Dengming never procrastinated, and quickly transmitted the message to Zuo Qiu Ling via Sound Transmission Jade Talisman.

At the same time, he also brought up the supplies needed for Dongfang Huayuan injury.

Upon hearing these two bombshell reports, Zuo Qiu Ling was stunned for a moment before pondering, "A powerful being who has seemingly achieved Dao integration and cultivates both the Buddhist and demonic paths?"

Ultimately, it might even alarm the Living Buddha Venerable on Sumeru Island. Who could this person be? Do you remember him?

Without a second thought, Chen Dengming immediately shrank back.

I have absolutely no impression of it!

I had barely formed an impression when I immediately sensed danger.

You can't expect to remember this thing.

He had a guess but dared not speak it, responding with a reminder, "Such a powerful the Unseen may possess some extraordinary insight. Not only is my cultivation too short to guess, but even if I could guess, I wouldn't want to. You should report the truth to the Spirit Transformation senior."

Zuo Qiu Ling smiled faintly upon hearing this, "Well done, Sect Leader Chen. You are cautious in your words and actions, and very experienced. Although you have only been cultivating for a short time, your ability to handle affairs is even more impeccable than this old fellow's."

"These are all lessons learned through blood and tears, no need to praise them. To make a long story short, you've already heard about Senior Dongfang's situation, so we still need to deal with it as soon as possible."

"As expected of you Fighting Longevity Lord!"

Zuo Qiu Ling exclaimed, "I haven't even found this Venerable Lord yet, and I'm already adding fuel to the fire, but you've found him so quickly!"

Chen Dengming, "After all, I am also a successor of the Human Immortal Orthodox Lineage, so naturally I have a way to find him."

Now that I've told you the whole situation, does your Cultivator Alliance have spirit medicine to heal Senior Dongfang's soul injuries?

Zuo Qiu Ling was troubled. "I'm afraid it won't be easy to find more of these kinds of spirit medicine in a short time. They are rare to begin with, let alone for a Spirit Transformation expert like Senior Dongfang. Once his soul is injured, the amount he needs will be enormous."

Chen Dengming said slyly, "Since your Counterattack Cultivator Alliance doesn't have that many, I happen to have a friend who has a batch of rare goods. How about we transfer them to you in exchange for Merit Points?"

Zuo Qiu Ling was stunned. "A friend of yours? Who is it? What kind of person is it?"

"The Water of the Underworld River and the Soul Flower, both are available."

Zuo Qiu Ling quickly realized what was happening and asked warily and seriously, "Sect Leader Chen, the friend you're talking about, is it yourself?"

"You actually have these supplies? Did you still secretly do it after I warned you last time that you must never exchange resources with the Starfall Yin Spring Ghost Lord?"

This time, Chen Dengming was stunned.

He hadn't thought of that yet.

Now, things have gotten out of hand, and it's even caused a misunderstanding with Zuo Qiu Ling.

As expected, these Nascent Soul Old Monsters are all meticulous and cunning; none of them are easy to deal with.

However, he was upright and had nothing to hide, so he readily admitted that he had just made up a friend out of thin air.

These rare resources were all obtained from the Ghost King Qian Luo, whom he had killed in the past, and he originally intended to give them all to the Cultivator Alliance free of charge.

However, the sect is currently in ruins and desperately needs resources, so this is the only option left: to sell this batch of supplies that they were unwilling to sell in order to help the sect recover.

"Alright, alright, you don't need to give me that snotty-nosed, tearful act."

Zuo Qiu Ling was both amused and annoyed. "Your Longevity Sect has indeed suffered this time. You gave these supplies to the Cultivator Alliance. Would I, Zuo, possibly treat you unfairly? I'll take them all according to your Merit Points."

Zuo Qiu Ling was secretly pleased to hear this.

He had known all along that Chen Dengming possessed the Water of the Underworld River. After all, with his intelligence network, the fact that Chen Dengming had given the Water of the Underworld River to the Six-Browed True Lord was impossible to hide from him.

However, he was unsure how many such resources Chen Dengming possessed, or whether he was willing to offer them to the Cultivator Alliance.

Just as he was wondering how he could bring himself to ask the Longevity Sect, whose situation was rather miserable, Chen Dengming unexpectedly walked right into his life. This saved him the trouble of having to ask, and instead, it made Chen Dengming look like he was in the wrong.

So, old ginger is spicier.

After reporting the situation, Chen Dengming felt relieved.

He immediately followed the plan, sending several clones to continue searching for the First Ancestor, while he himself began rebuilding the Mountain Gate and refining a new Nascent Soul Soul Arrow.

Six days later.

The Black Crow Mountain Range defense line in the Western Regions is a defensive line of Outer Domain Evil Cultivator that stretches for thousands of miles.

In the past, this place was home to many Outer Domain Evil Cultivators from the Six Paths of the Devil Palace, as well as hundreds of thousands of demons and cultivators from Great Demon kingdoms, who defended against the attack of the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance and guarded against the possibility of the Western Regions being captured and the Great Curtain Passage being destroyed.

Now, the defenses here have crumbled on their own, leaving a scene of devastation. Hundreds of thousands of Devil Cultivators and monsters have scattered like birds and beasts. Countless black crows that had been driven away have returned to their homeland, happily pecking at the human corpses left in the mountains, feasting on them.

"Rumble rumble--"

Enormous spirit ships suddenly appeared, stirring up the air and creating gusts of wind that swept towards the Black Crow Mountains. This startled a flock of black crows, who cawed wildly and flew away like a stumbling, scattered black cloud.

"There really isn't a single Evil Cultivator guarding this place anymore. It seems the news was accurate; they're now fighting their own battles, and everyone's living in fear."

On a colossal spirit ship as large as a mountain, True Lord Mi Changzai speaking, turning his head to look at a green-haired male cultivator beside him, and said.

"Sect Leader Chen, I'm afraid the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance will soon issue orders to us to participate in the capture and killing of Nascent Soul True Lord among the Outer Domain Evil Cultivator."

This green-haired male cultivator was naturally a Heavenly Immortal Clone of Chen Dengming.

Since the Longevity Sect stabilized and the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance confirmed that the Great Curtain Passage Pass had been destroyed, one of Chen Dengming's clones, after failing to find the First Ancestor, followed the counter-offensive cultivator army into the Western Regions to hunt down many Outer Domain Evil Cultivators and Devil Cultivator traitors.

The pursuit should be launched sooner rather than later.

If it's too late, it will give the many Evil Cultivators and traitors remaining in the Four Seas Four Regions a chance to breathe, allowing these people, who were already leaderless due to the loss of the Outer Realm Devil Venerable, to gather together again.

Even if a second leader emerges to replace the Demon Lord, the war will still be difficult to end in the short term.

Faced with Mi Changzai's tentative inquiry, Chen Dengming calmly replied, "If we can end the war sooner, it would be good to participate in the plan to hunt down Nascent Soul Evil Cultivator. Too many people have died in this great war; it's time to bring it to a close."

As he spoke, he could already smell the stench of decay coming from below.

At this moment, a commotion broke out among the many cultivators on the spirit boat.

Chen Dengming looked down and his face darkened.

Below, the mountains were littered with corpses, many of them hanging from trees with sharp branches piercing their chins and skulls, and some even disemboweled.

Many of the corpses had been eaten by black crows until only skeletons remained, a truly pitiful sight. However, judging from their clothing, they could still be identified as cultivators from the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance.

Clearly, after realizing their defeat, the dispersing Evil Cultivator army, in their retreat, inhumanely slaughtered many captured prisoners of the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance and Rogue Cultivator cultivators to vent their anger, perhaps even taking their souls with them.

Mi Changzai grim. "These Evil Cultivator, and those traitors who willingly degenerate, all deserve to die!"

Just then, Chen Dengming's body trembled, and his gaze instantly locked onto the 'corpse forest' in the mountains below.

Their gazes finally settled on the woman at the very center of the corpse forest.

The woman's appearance was emaciated, a stark contrast to her former beauty. Her body was even exposed, her abdomen ripped open, as if she had suffered considerable humiliation in front of many people before her death.

If it weren't for the resemblance between his eyes and brows to Li Xue's, coupled with the lingering spiritual power emanating from him and the prominent terrain, Chen Dengming might not have been able to recognize him in time.

This woman was none other than Cheng Yun Xue Yunxue, Li Rong's wife in the Five Elements Escape Sect and also the mother of his daughter-in-law, Li Xue.

Before the four regions fell to the enemy, Chen Dengming had met her once in the Border Town. He also inquired about the whereabouts of her mother on behalf of his daughter-in-law Li Xue, but there was still no news.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, Li Xue and Li Rong are both dead, and the war is over, Cheng Yun Xue has reappeared, but in such a humiliating and cruel way.

"Is this Sect Leader Chen perhaps an old acquaintance?" Mi Changzai asked from the side, sensing something amiss.

Chen Dengming sighed, then flew down.

"A fellow Daoist I met only once, who was once Golden Core Great Cultivator, I never imagined he would end up in this state."

For Golden Core Elder of the Five Elements Escape Sect to die in such a way is far too humiliating. Chen Dengming's unwillingness to reveal too much about Cheng Yun Xue's identity only added to the insult.

He leaped down, covered Cheng Yun Xue's body, and carefully disposed of it.

Regardless of whether Li Xue was bewitched by the Outer Realm Devil Venerable or not, his old friendship with Li Rong, his neighbor, made it impossible for him to allow Cheng Yun Xue's corpse to be disposed of in such a humiliating manner.

Seeing this, Mi Changzai was also deeply moved.

In the world of cultivation, many people eventually become stronger, but their temperament and emotions are worn away by time, leaving only a lonely, aloof immortal Immortal Qi, refined and self-serving, devoid of any human warmth or humanity.

He issued a command in a loud voice, "Many of our former comrades-in-arms lie here, their bodies exposed and devoured by countless crows. It is an unbearable sight. Let us cast a spell together to send our comrades off and let their spirits rest in peace!"

One by one, the spirit boats slowly came to a stop. On board, many cultivators witnessed the scene of corpses strewn across the land below and couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow. Gradually, some of them shouted in response.

"Farewell, fellow Daoist!"

May their spirits rest in peace!

In an instant, the fire Spiritual Qi in the world gathered and surged. Many cultivators skilled in Fire Wall Technique flew off the spirit ship and began to cast spells to cremate the corpses of the dead cultivators.

Some of the inexperienced Qi Cultivation Cultivator were immediately stopped by their seniors as soon as they activated the Fireball Technique.

Fireball Technique is different from Fire Wall Technique.

Although the Fire Wall Technique is of a higher Technique Method, its main advantage is its wider casting range. The Fireball Technique, on the other hand, has an explosive effect; if both spells are used together, they will not cremate the body but destroy all traces of it.

Soon, a continuous sea of fire rose over the Black Crow Mountains, billowing thick smoke.

The figures of cultivators either floated in the air like spiritual light or stood on the spirit boat, raising their hands in a gesture of farewell.

Witnessing this scene, Chen Dengming's usually calm gaze finally softened with a smile and warmth, his expression revealing a hint of relief and a touch of joy.

This was the cultivator he had always imagined, the one he had always had after transmigrating—a generous person who said, "Why should we cultivators hesitate to fight?" and a chivalrous person who said, "Slay demons and monsters, and wield our swords across the world."

Rather than the extreme selfishness, contempt for mortals, bullying of the weak, and even those who detain the weak and cut off their limbs for forced labor that one initially encountered when entering the Cultivation World.

"If the Cultivation World were filled with this spirit of Xianxia, even if there were another invasion from beyond the realms, how could there be so many traitors?"

Chen Dengming looked at Mi Changzai and smiled generously.

Upon hearing this, Mi Changzai was startled and turned to look at Chen Dengming.

Suddenly, he felt that for the first time, he saw in this young sect leader, who was much younger than him, a kind of leadership and magnanimity that he had never seen before.

He had only seen this kind of spirit and magnanimity in a handful of sect leaders, with the Qu Shenzong being the most prominent among them.

It seems that at this moment, after experiencing the life-or-death battle of destroying and then saving the sect, the leader of the Longevity Sect has truly grown into a qualified leader with a broad mind and great spirit.

In the southern part of the Eastern Region, on the ruins of the former branch city of the City of All Immortals, a new Immortal City has been rebuilt in just six days thanks to the efforts of the remaining members of the Artifact Sect.

The newly built immortal city is even more magnificent, seemingly symbolizing rebirth, and accommodates many survivors of the war as well as Four Regions Cultivators.

Zuo Qiu Ling and several high-ranking members of the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance flew to the top of the immortal city.

Before everyone's eyes, after a passionate report on the heroic deeds of the Longevity Sect and the many cultivators of the City of All Immortals in resisting the Outer Domain Evil Cultivator, the list of the wounded was announced, causing an uproar, indignation, and panic among many cultivators.

However, as news broke that the Outer Domain Evil Cultivator had been repelled and the Great Curtain Passage had been destroyed, the panic was quickly contained before it could spread, and many cultivators gradually turned from sorrow to joy and began to cheer.

The Great Curtain Passage has always been the greatest threat to the Four Seas Four Regions.

This is because in another realm behind the curtain, there are suspected to be several Dao Integration Great Power, similar to the Outer Realm Devil Venerable, and there may even be beings stronger than them.

Despite the fact that, based on the developments over the years, these powerful beings, including the Outer Realm Devil Venerable, have not been able to directly enter the Four Realms.

It seems that once they enter, they will encounter the same intense suppression as ordinary cultivators entering the Curse land of Nanxun, posing a huge risk.

But no one can say for sure whether this suppression and deterrence against powerful beings from outside the region will suddenly disappear one day.

Like the Outer Realm Devil Venerable, one only needs to ruthlessly sacrifice a million cultivators to establish the Ten Thousand Devils Blood Sacrifice Dao Domain in multiple locations across the Four Realms, cultivating Flesh and Blood Devil Fetus, thus allowing the power of the original body to enter the Four Realms.

As long as this kind of potential risk exists, it is impossible to feel at ease.

Not to mention that destroying the Great Curtain Passage would prevent more Outer Domain Evil Cultivator from entering the Four Domains, effectively cutting off Outer Domain Evil Cultivator retreat and reinforcements.

Therefore, the news of the destruction of the Great Curtain Passage spread, shaking the Four Seas Four Regions. The impact was greater than when the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance and recovered the Eastern Region.

Several days later.

When the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance was rewarding its members, the Longevity Sect, as the primary target of the attack led by the Outer Realm Devil Venerable lord, deserved the greatest credit.

However, the sacrifice of the first and second patriarchs of the Longevity Sect was a devastating loss.

This loss is irreversible, no matter how many foreign cultivators Chen Dengming, as the leader of the Longevity Sect, kills.

However, the astonishing combat power, resilience, and spirit of sacrifice displayed by the Longevity Sect in this battle completely overturned the preconceived notions of most cultivators in the Four Seas Four Regions regarding the Longevity Sect, earning the respect of many sect cultivators.

Meanwhile, Chen Dengming was overseeing the repair of the Mountain Protecting Formation and the reconstruction of the Mountain Gate within the sect.

While refining the Nascent Soul of the captured Hall Master of Freedom of Indulgence into Nascent Soul Soul Arrow, they awaited the rewards and recognition from the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance.

On the Heavenly Timing, he refined the Nascent Soul Late Stage Hall Master of Freedom into a Soul Arrow, thus possessing the two Nascent Soul Soul Arrow of the Hall Master and the Deputy Hall Master of Passion. In this way, he obtained the Twin Arrows, adding another powerful technique to his repertoire.

On the ninth day, he finally received the numerous merits awarded by the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance, some of which had been exchanged for valuable resources and treasures.

A spirit boat laden with supplies arrived, personally escorted by cultivators from the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance, demonstrating the preciousness of the supplies and the respect shown to the Longevity Sect.

"Senior Chen, this is the merit book. In addition to the Longevity Sect as a whole, as well as your and Senior Su's, it also records Senior Fu's and Senior Jiang's contributions."

As you instructed, Senior Jiang's share has been temporarily retained, Senior Fu's contributions have been exchanged for resources such as the Heavenly Gang Azure Sky Formation's array plate.

"As for the supplies you need, they have all been exchanged and delivered. The only thing you need is for Artifact Refining Grandmaster to repair your fifth-tier Law Treasure, which we cannot fulfill at the moment due to a shortage of manpower. Please forgive us, senior."

A Golden Core Cultivator in charge of transporting supplies reported respectfully to Chen Dengming.

"Okay, let's unload all the supplies."

Chen Dengming personally transmitted his Divine Sense into the Jade Slip to confirm receipt, and then asked with a puzzled look.

"You say there's a shortage of manpower? Does the Cultivator Alliance have some big plans lately?"

Artifact Refining Grandmaster capable of repairing a fifth-tier Law Treasure must be at least at the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

In the past, there were only a handful of grandmasters of this level in the four regions, including the Artifact Sect.

Throughout the entire world, only a handful of individuals from the Eight-Armed Immortal Sect and the Spirit Item Sect could accomplish what the Six-Browed True Lord could not.

He wanted to ask Artifact Refining Grandmaster to repair the Giant Deer Mage Robe. Not wanting to ask for favors and incur debts, he had no choice but to use his Merit Points to ask the Artifact Refining Grandmaster through the Cultivator Alliance.

The Golden Core Cultivator was taken aback, then politely bowed and said, "Senior Chen, the Cultivator Alliance has indeed been making some big moves recently, which is no secret."

The main reason is that the plan to hunt down Nascent Soul True Lord from the Evil Cultivator camp has already begun. Due to a severe shortage of manpower, even these less active Artifact Refining Grandmaster have been assigned tasks and joined the hunting team.

"I see."

Chen Dengming nodded slightly, chatted with the other party for a few more minutes, and then personally handed over this batch of valuable sect supplies.

Judging from the current situation, he seems to understand.

On the other hand, the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance, perhaps Zuo Qiu Ling consideration for the recent heavy casualties and emotional distress of the Longevity Sect, did not assign any further tasks related to the hunting plan to the Longevity Sect.

After all, only Nascent Soul True Lord have the ability to participate in the hunting plan.

Currently, the only Nascent Soul True Lord in the Longevity Sect are him, Su Yan Yan, and Xing Huiguang.

He has been busy with his own affairs and the construction of his sect lately, and is unaware of the movements and arrangements of the Cultivator Alliance.

However, he had anticipated this hunting operation, so he wasn't surprised that it had begun.

However, judging from the current situation, it seems that the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance has figured out the specific details of that mysterious expert Buddha and Devil Dual Cultivator.

The hunting plan was likely launched only after it was determined that there was no threat.

"How did you find out? Did you perhaps consult the Living Buddha on Sumeru Island?"
