Inside the main hall of the Three Absolutes Holy Land.

The atmosphere was extremely tense and heavy.

A total of six Supreme Beings had emerged!

Many of them had even been in secluded, life-or-death cultivation, unwilling to be disturbed.

But now, they had no choice but to emerge.

Because, at such a time, it meant the Sacred Land was facing a major crisis.

"Sect Master, what exactly happened that required summoning us?"

An old man with graying hair asked. He even carried an aura of decay.

This was an old Supreme Being who had experienced countless years, stuck before becoming an immortal, unable to break through.

Everyone's gaze fell upon a middle-aged man seated at the head of the hall.

The middle-aged man's aura was dormant, and his eyes seemed to hold divine lightning.

He was the current Sect Master of the Three Absolutes Holy Land, Changsun Liancheng.

"Supreme Beings Shi Tai and Tie Ming arrived in the Southern Region's Cangli Mountain Range via teleportation array a few days ago!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression turned grim.

"Now, of the two Supreme Beings, Tie Ming is dead, his soul lamp extinguished. Shi Tai's soul lamp is extremely weak, on the verge of dissipating at any moment. The news from there is that he has gone mad."

In the hall, the many Supreme Beings were even more shocked at this moment.

"One dead, one mad... What did they encounter?"

"Could it be some terrifying existence?"

"No wonder we needed to come out of seclusion..."

The crowd spoke, and the old Supreme Being who had just asked added, "Did they encounter a terrifying existence in the Cangli Mountain Range?"

The Cangli Mountain Range was known throughout the Profound Heaven Realm as a forbidden area.

If the two Supreme Beings were indeed killed by a terrifying existence within, then everything would make sense, as that mountain range was practically a graveyard for Supreme Beings.

However, Changsun Liancheng shook his head and said, "That is not the case. They were harmed by someone!"

"According to the news sent back by the disciples of Shi Tai and Tie Ming, they were harmed by the traitors Nan Feng and Ziling, who colluded with some existence!"

"Regardless of who Ziling and Nan Feng defected to, after they harmed our Sacred Land's two Supreme Beings, they let the Supreme Beings' disciples go. This is clearly meant to show us they are defiant!"

"This is provocation!"

Changsun Liancheng said coldly, "If we do not retaliate in the face of such humiliation, the prestige of our Sacred Land will inevitably be damaged!"

The many Supreme Beings stiffened.

"Therefore, the purpose of summoning all of you today is only one!"

"Our Sacred Land... should declare a holy war!"

"To avenge the two Supreme Beings!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the many Supreme Beings changed.

Holy war!

Unless it was a matter of life and death, a holy war would never occur.

When a holy war begins, it means either death or survival.

There were no other options.

Had things reached this point?

"Directly declaring a holy war before understanding the full story, isn't that a bit too hasty..."

The old Supreme Being couldn't help but speak.

The other Supreme Beings also showed hesitation on their faces.

However, at this moment, Changsun Liancheng stood up directly. His expression was cold, "Everyone, do not forget that the Cangli Mountain Range has opened!"

"How many years has it been since our Three Absolutes Holy Land produced an immortal?"

"Before our Ancestor ascended the Ascension Platform, he left the Immortal Path-containing Proof Immortal Qin and Immortal Pen in the Cangli Mountain Range!"

"The two Supreme Beings have already perished. We must go all out if we have any chance of retrieving them!"

"And have the opportunity to create another era of glory!"

Instantly, everyone understood.

The purpose of the holy war was not the person who harmed the two Supreme Beings at all.

It was the treasures left behind by the Three Absolutes Immortal in the Cangli Mountain Range!

"I understand. Only through a holy war do we have an excuse to intervene in the matters of the Southern Region."

The old Supreme Being sighed.

As a sect from the Central Prefecture, the Three Absolutes Sacred Land would inevitably face resistance from the Southern Region if they moved their entire sect to seize opportunities there.

This would break the rules.

However, the deaths of the two Supremes now provided them with an excuse.

Soon, an order was issued within the Three Absolutes Sacred Land!

"Gather the Sacred Land's forces and initiate a holy war!"

"Avenge the two Supremes, Shi Tai and Tie Ming!"

Upon hearing the news, the entire Three Absolutes Sacred Land was shaken.

A holy war!

Soon, the news of the Central Prefecture's Three Absolutes Sacred Land launching a large-scale invasion of the Southern Region caused a stir.

The Southern Region paid attention.

The news of the two Supremes, one dead and one driven mad, was also spread throughout the Southern Region with the push from the Three Absolutes Sacred Land.

After all, they needed the news of the two Supremes' demise to spread to have a justifiable reason.

The various powers in the Southern Region were instantly shaken.

"Someone actually attacked the Supremes of the Three Absolutes Sacred Land around the Cangli Mountain Range, resulting in one dead and one driven mad!"

"Truly terrifying, could it be that a quasi-immortal made a move?"

"The Cangli Mountain Range is truly becoming more and more complicated..."

The news spread everywhere.

And at this moment.

Outside the Cangli Mountain Range, groups of people had already gathered.

Leading them were the Ziyang Holy Land and the Taiyan Holy Land.

With the two Sacred Lands taking the lead, they formed an allied army to explore the Cangli Mountain Range.

Although the massive changes in the Cangli Mountain Range had caused a disaster, they also presented a great opportunity.

Many of the original forbidden formations had now been destroyed.

It was now possible to enter.

"Report!"

A Mahayana Stage expert flew over rapidly, delivering the latest news. He said, "The Central Prefecture's Three Absolutes Sacred Land has launched a holy war and is heading towards the Cangli Mountain Range!"

"It is said that the two Supremes of the Three Absolutes Sacred Land, Shi Tai and Tie Ming, were killed by the traitors Nan Feng and Ziling, who colluded with an existence hidden on the outskirts of the Cangli Mountain Range. One is dead, and the other is mad, which has ignited the wrath of the Three Absolutes Sacred Land."

The two Supremes leading the allied army were Luoming and Hong Xuan!

They were both considered individuals with deep fortune favored by Senior Li, hence their leadership of the allied army.

Upon hearing this, the two exchanged glances, seeing the same solemnity and suspicion in each other's eyes!

"Could it be Senior Li..."

Hong Xuan spoke.

"It must be!"

Luoming stated with certainty, "The so-called two traitors of the Three Absolutes Sacred Land, Nan Feng and Ziling, are most likely the two who are following Senior Li."

"And looking across the entire Southern Region, who else could so easily cause two Supremes to end up one dead and one mad?"

Hong Xuan's expression was extremely solemn!

"I really don't know if they stepped into Senior Li's courtyard this time..."

Luoming couldn't help but recall the two Supreme Devil Generals who died outside Senior Li's door last time.

Even burning their Devil Souls to unleash immortal-level power couldn't get them a step into the courtyard...

If the Three Absolutes Sacred Land knew this, would they still dare to launch a holy war?

They would probably turn around and run...

He suddenly said with a hint of mockery:

"The Three Absolutes Sacred Land thinks they are clever, using the deaths of the two Supremes to seize the opportunities in the Cangli Mountain Range. Unfortunately, launching a holy war against an existence like Senior Li is simply foolish!"

"Their petty cleverness will bring utter disaster upon their entire Sacred Land!"

Hong Xuan said, "Should we intervene? They dare to disrespect Senior Li..."

"No need. All of this is definitely within Senior Li's calculations."

Luoming said, "In Senior Li's hands, even Sacred Lands are merely chess pieces. We should be fortunate that the Taiyan Holy Land and Ziyang Holy Land are at least useful pawns... whereas the Three Absolutes Sacred Land is clearly about to become a discarded piece!"

Hong Xuan's expression was complicated!

"No more thinking about it, march towards the Cangli Mountain Range!"

March!

The allied forces, like a tide, immediately crossed the outer reaches of the Cangli Mountain Range and surged inward.

And at this moment.

Huo Ling'er, Mu Qianning, and the others had also entered the small mountain village.

Before entering the Cangli Mountain Range, they had specifically come here to listen to Senior Li's teachings!
