Extorting the Evil Blade [Monthly Votes Requested]

Loose Cultivator Alliance.

"Alliance Leader, we've suffered too many losses over the years. Those major powers are using us as cannon fodder."

"We've gained plenty of resources, but our alliance isn't the same as independent rogue cultivators. We're far more likely to run into tough opponents." "Do we dare resist? Those major powers are all preserving their strength. If we make one wrong move, they'll come charging in right behind us!" Inside the alliance, several Spirit Transformation Cultivators looked grim. They called themselves rogue cultivators, but the major powers did not regard their alliance that way. Even a handful of rogue cultivators joining forces in Blazing Snow City counted as a small or midsize power, let alone the Loose Cultivator Alliance.

"Old Monster Xuehen quit the alliance outright, then went into hiding. No one knows where that old bastard is. He's clearly avoiding this disaster!" With the war in its current state, even many Spirit Transformation Cultivators had no control over their own fates.

Everyone knew the consequences of resisting. As for defecting to the enemy? That might not end well either.

Only Spirit Transformation old monsters with strong foundations, formidable strength, and few entanglements could rely on their trump cards to hide away for a century or two. Even hiding required strength!

"Fellow Daoists, the present situation concerns every cultivator on North Cold Continent. And who among you dares say you don't need the resources the alliance has provided?" True Lord Qingxu, the alliance leader, regarded them calmly. Each of them wanted a share when benefits appeared, yet the moment danger arose, they tried to stir up trouble. "Of course, if any Fellow Daoist is injured, I still have a little influence. I can arrange for you to return and recuperate for a while. But—" His tone abruptly sharpened.
