Shangguan Xiong's Decision

"Junior brother, killing Golden Core cultivator is far too dangerous!"

Looking at his resolute junior brother, Luo Lan's face Bai Qi, devoid of color, filled with worry.

In her eyes, Golden Core cultivators were like the might of heaven, something that Foundation Establishment cultivators could never handle!

"Senior Sister, I was just thinking about it, don't worry."

Seeing that his Senior Sister's expression was off, Chen Changming quickly smiled and covered up the matter.

"That Golden Core Immortal from the Great Qin is the leader of the Demon-Slaying Alliance; he should have a way to escape."

Luo Lan thought for a moment and then said.

Chen Changming nodded and sat cross-legged. "Senior Sister, this is the safest place. Let's rest for a while and let them fight it out first..."

Luo Lan agreed and sat down cross-legged as well.

Fortunately, this great formation did not completely isolate the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, so she could cultivate to replenish the energy consumed within her body.

The greatest drain is the Clear Light Art.

After all, in the Demonic Qi, one must constantly expend Law Power to maintain the operation of the Clear Light Art.

From the distant Demonic Qi, faint rumbling sounds could be heard continuously.

Chen Changming listened silently, constantly pondering how far the conflict between the Demon-Slaying Alliance and the Black Lotus Sect had progressed.

Half a day later.

A long streak of light flew in, moving at an incredible speed.

Upon reaching the location of the great formation within the Demonic Qi, the long rainbow stopped and transformed into a middle-aged man dressed in a green robe embroidered with four patterns: the Azure Dragon, the Azure Dragon Vermilion Bird, the Black Tortoise, and the White Tiger.

"Golden Core cultivator?"

Chen Changming felt a chill run down his spine as he sensed the immense aura emanating from the other party, which was not concealed at all.

This is the Golden Core Immortal from the Great Qin, also known as Shangguan Xiong, the Shangguan Xiong of the Demon-Slaying Alliance!

As a member of the Demon-Slaying Alliance, he naturally knew the name of the alliance leader.

Shangguan Xiong seemed to have already discovered the formation. He squinted at the formation with his hands behind his back, as if he didn't see the two members of the Demon-Slaying Alliance below.

Boom!

With a wave of his hand, a beam of light shot out and crashed behind the great formation.

The formation trembled, bouncing Shangguan Xiong's round treasure back.

"The Black Lotus Sect has such deep scheming..."

Shangguan Xiong's face darkened, and he muttered, "Who exactly is plotting this in the shadows? Yu Tiangong? No, he doesn't have that ability! Besides him, it should be that Holy Mother Wusheng from the Black Lotus Sect, right?"

He had very little information about this "Holy Mother Wusheng".

All that is known is that he was once a cultivator at the peak of the tenth level of Foundation Establishment, with a very mysterious background, and most of the Black Lotus Sect members have never seen him.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and frowned as he looked down, asking, "Are you two from the Black Tortoise Division?"

Luo Lan clasped his hands in a fist salute and said respectfully, "Yes, Alliance Leader, I am Luo Lan, the Hall Master of Qingfeng Hall, and this is Chen Bai, the tenth banner disciple of my Qingfeng Hall."

Why are you here?

Shangguan Xiong's face darkened.

"Reporting to the Alliance Leader, we were all ambushed by the Black Lotus Sect, and all our team members perished. I also felt something was amiss, as if we had fallen into a trap, so I rushed back to check, only to find that Mysterious Yin Mountain was sealed off by a great formation."

Luo Lan's explanation was neither humble nor arrogant.

Shangguan Xiong nodded silently. Hadn't he also sensed something was wrong, which was why he flew out to investigate immediately?

"With Mysterious Yin Mountain now sealed off, no one can leave. You must come with me!"

Shangguan Xiong pondered for a moment before speaking.

After saying that, he deliberately controlled his speed and flew towards the depths of Mysterious Yin Mountain.

He had seen the list of Hall Master of the four departments before and was quite impressed with Luo Lan. Luo Lan was a sword cultivator with great strength. Now that the Demon-Slaying Alliance had been set up, they needed such manpower.

As for Chen Bai, he ignored him.

In his eyes, the second level of Foundation Establishment was far too weak and had limited use.

Seeing that his junior brother was flying slowly, Luo Lan did not dare to delay Shangguan Xiong's time, so he pulled Chen Changming onto his sword and rode with him on the sword.

This way, the speed is faster.

The Demonic Qi surrounding Mysterious Yin Mountain covered an area of only five thousand miles in circumference, so they quickly flew into its depths.

Along the way, seeing various Demon Beast appear, Shangguan Xiong raised his hand and shot out beams of light, easily killing them.

This scene, witnessed by Chen Changming, also filled him with awe.

As expected of Golden Core cultivator, slaying Demon Beast amidst Demonic Qi is incredibly easy for him.

If the Holy Mother Wusheng were not at the Golden Core Realm, she would be no match for Shangguan Xiong.

Shangguan Xiong alone can kill a large number of Level 4 Demonic Beast, thus laying the foundation for the Demon-Slaying Alliance to win.

Above the distant valley, more than three thousand Foundation Establishment cultivators were gathered. Shangguan Xiong ignored Luo Lan when he arrived and flew directly into the crowd, where he was surrounded by the Vice Alliance Leader of the four factions.

"This time, we were tricked by the Black Lotus Sect, and our Demon-Slaying Alliance suffered heavy casualties. However, the entire Demonic Qi Region of Mysterious Yin Mountain is now shrouded by a great formation, and even I can't get out."

Shangguan Xiong stared intently at the four Vice Alliance Leader and the Hall Master of the surrounding departments, his gaze hardening. He said in a deep voice, "Now we have no choice but to fight with our backs against the wall. I, the alliance leader, will personally lead you into the Demonic Qi Well and kill all the Demon Beast and remnants of the Black Lotus Sect!"

"I will obey the Alliance Leader's command!"

The four Vice Alliance Leader clasped their hands in a fist salute and said in unison.

Outside the crowd, Chen Changming saw the four Vice Alliance Leader looking triumphant and sneered inwardly.

If the Holy Mother Wusheng didn't have absolute certainty of victory, why would she have set up such a grand scheme?

"Attack!"

Shangguan Xiong took the lead and rushed towards the Demonic Qi Well.

The entire Demon-Slaying Alliance, numbering over three thousand, mobilized and marched out in a mighty force.

"Senior Sister, this battle is dangerous; you must not go all out."

Chen Changming quietly transmitted his voice to Luo Lan, giving her instructions.

Luo Lan nodded solemnly.

She knew that her junior brother was a cautious person, and that he must have extraordinary courage and insight far beyond that of ordinary cultivators to have survived in such a harsh environment.

Outside the Demonic Qi Well, a dark mass of demonic Demon Beast lurked. As for the members of the Black Lotus Sect, they stood around the Demonic Qi Well as if facing a formidable enemy, their expressions extremely tense.

After all, many people knew that a Golden Core Immortal had come to the Demon-Slaying Alliance.

On their side, the strongest fighter was only at the tenth level of the Foundation Establishment.

Fortunately, they had quite a few Level 4 Demonic Beast here, ranging from the initial, intermediate, and advanced stages. These powerful Demon Beast gave the Black Lotus Sect members a lot of confidence.

"Shangguan Xiong!"

A clear, cold voice suddenly rang out, and a beam of black light shot into the sky from the Demonic Qi, floating in mid-air.

An aura of Golden Core energy spread out recklessly.

"Golden Core Realm!"

The Black Lotus Sect members were both surprised and delighted to discover that a Golden Core Realm expert had appeared on their side.

"Greetings to the Holy Mother Wusheng!"

The current leader Yu Tiangong, suddenly clasped his hands in a salute, his expression both fanatical and respectful.

Our Lady?

Upon hearing the name of the most mysterious figure in the Black Lotus Sect, many followers immediately became fanatical.

It turns out that all of this was planned by the previous leader.

"Greetings, Our Lady!"

With a whoosh, all the Black Lotus Sect members knelt down.

Get up.

The Holy Mother Wusheng smiled slightly, and a vast Law Power swept out, helping everyone to their feet.

at the same time.

Shangguan Xiong, who was rushing over, suddenly froze in mid-air.

He never dreamed that at such a crucial moment, the most mysterious former leader of the Black Lotus Sect would appear, and that this person had even broken through to the Golden Core Realm!
