A Narrow Road Brings Enemies Together

Apart from Lin Qianshu staying behind and the Old Clan Leader who was in seclusion to replenish his Golden Core realm, the other four Golden Core realm cultivators of the Heavenly Ruins Alliance have all arrived here.

In total, there were ten Golden Core realm Ancestors in this battle, which is close to the peak of the Chu Kingdom's power before the Abyssal Demon Calamity four hundred years ago.

Based on this calculation alone, the forces involved in this battle were more than twice as strong as those a hundred years ago.

The ten Golden Core realm elders took their seats. After assessing their strength, Ji Feixue said, "Our strength is far greater than it was back then when dealing with the Demon Cave, so there's no need for too much trouble."

"We'll set up an array using the Azuregreen Formation Plate, then mobilize the two War Treasure Ship of the Heavenly Ruins Alliance to launch a direct assault."

Chen Nianzhi nodded in agreement. Although the Demon Cave's defenses were not weak, the overall strength of the Chu Kingdom Cultivation World had far surpassed that of a hundred years ago after several great victories.

The strength of the Heavenly Ruins Alliance alone has more than doubled. Leaving aside Golden Core True Person, the number of the Purple Mansion cultivators has increased from thirty or forty to more than sixty.

Other major forces have also increased their numbers considerably, so the number of Foundation Establishment cultivators participating in this battle has exceeded one thousand, and one hundred and twenty-seven Purple Mansion cultivators have also come.

With such overwhelming strength, the addition of the Firmament Immortal Sword and the Vast-Heaven Mirror —two Demon-Refining Supreme Treasure —and the even more powerful Ji Feixue personally overseeing the operation, taking down the Demon Cave shouldn't be too surprising.

Master Taiwu True Person nodded, but then said, "The Black Eagle Ridge Demon King has already broken through to the late Golden Core stage; someone still needs to restrain him."

"This is easy to handle."

Jiang Linglong's eyes flickered slightly, and she calmly said, "Before this battle, I had someone discuss with the Yuan Clan Immortal Family of the Yan Kingdom that three True Person from the Yan Kingdom's cultivation Immortal Realm would restrain him."

"We'll just kill them off on the way after this battle is over."

"That makes things easier."

Taiwu True Person revealed a look of joy. The Azuregreen Immortal Sect Black Eagle Ridge, a major threat.

However, Black Eagle Ridge's speed is among the best in its class, so even when facing an attack from late Golden Core stage cultivator, it can easily escape.

Therefore, for over a thousand years, the Azuregreen Immortal Sect has been unable to deal with it, and only top-tier Golden Core realm like Jiang Linglong have a certain degree of confidence in killing it.

After discussing and agreeing on a strategy, they decided to take action against the Demon Cave. Taiwu True Person personally set up the Azuregreen Formation Plate, and nearly 100,000 cultivators joined forces to suppress the demonic energy in the Demon Cave with the Demon-Refining True Fire.

Then Chen Nianzhi and Jiang Linglong personally propelled the two War Treasure Ship, sparing no expense of hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stone, and successively slashed down twelve Seven-Star Demon-Slaying Sword Aura.

Such immense power was almost equivalent to a cultivator at the Golden Core Grand Completion unleashing their full power twelve times. Even the Demon Baleful Intent barrier on the Demon Cave could not withstand it and was torn open.

"Do it."

Ji Feixue raised her eyes and leaped into the Demon Cave, with Chen Nianzhi and the others following closely behind.

As soon as he entered the Demon Cave, Chen Nianzhi casually unleashed a Bing Fire Divine Thunder. In an instant, the dazzling divine thunder exploded, wiping out a series of demonic energies, and many Devil Cultivator cultivators were instantly reduced to ashes.

After doing all this, Chen Nianzhi watched as everyone followed her in and said, "The Demon Baleful Intent will invade your bodies, so this battle needs to be fought quickly."

"If the Demon Spring cannot be captured within two hours, then Foundation Establishment cultivators may withdraw after two hours."

"We understand."

Seeing everyone nod in agreement, Ji Feixue said, "Let's split into three groups and finish this quickly."

The group nodded and, following the plan, entered the Demon Cave.

There were three routes for this battle: one from the Heavenly Ruins Alliance, another from the Purple Abyss Sect, the Azuregreen Immortal Sect, and the Firmament Sword Sect, while Ji Feixue led one route alone.

With the existence of Demon-Refining Supreme Treasure along every route, the ambush that occurred a hundred years ago would not be possible.

Chen Nianzhi and Jiang Linglong fought their way down the left flank, defeating the Devil Cultivator cultivators along the way. After traveling more than 300,000 miles, they finally encountered a formidable enemy.

The visitors turned out to be Yan Old Devil and the Demon Cave Master. As soon as they saw Chen Nianzhi and the other person, a look of fear and coldness flashed in their eyes.

"Damn it, how could this be their road?"

The two demons were shocked and furious. The Heavenly Ruins Alliance had four Golden Core realm cultivators, plus Chen Nianzhi and Jiang Linglong, both late Golden Core stage cultivators, which was enough to make them difficult to deal with.

Thinking of this, Yan Old Devil couldn't help but ask the Demon Cave Master, "What should we do?"

"Fight your way out!"

The Demon Cave Master gritted his teeth and said, "This time is different from a hundred years ago. This time, it's Ji Feixue who has come."

Ji Feixue is High-grade Golden Core with Law Power equivalent to 80-90% of Nascent Soul True Lord. She also possesses a supreme Demon-Refining Supreme Treasure, making her strength almost equivalent to half a Nascent Soul True Lord.

This strength was far beyond his ability to resist; they had no chance of defending the Demon Cave.

Their only way out is to take advantage of Ji Feixue's attack on the demon and escape through the entrance of the Demon Cave.

The group split into three groups. They only had a 30% chance of encountering Ji Feixue, and this time they didn't. However, they unexpectedly ran into Jiang Linglong instead.

He had no choice but to go even though he knew Jiang Linglong was powerful, just to escape.

"Do it."

When humans and demons meet, there's naturally nothing to say.

Jiang Linglong was the first to rush forward, unleashing her Swordsmanship to relentlessly attack the Demon Cave Master.

On the other side, Chen Nianzhi also soared into the sky, wielding the Heavenly Separation Twin Swords, pressing down on Yan Old Devil he could hardly breathe.

This Yan Old Devil Golden Core realm has been at the Golden Core stage for 150 years, but his physical body was destroyed by Chen Nianzhi back then, wasting a full 60 years of his life.

His cultivation level had only just reached the second-layer Golden Core stage, and his Law Power was naturally far inferior to Chen Nianzhi's, forcing him to retreat step by step.

Moreover, because he has been trapped in the Demon Cave for many years and has no human flesh and blood essence, Yan Old Devil has been unable to re-cultivate the destroyed Blood Demon Child. Therefore, he now only has two Blood Demon Child clones left.

In this situation, he was no match for Chen Nianzhi. Before those two False Core realm- level Blood Demon Child could even unleash their fury, they were finished off by Chen Nianzhi with two sword strikes.

"Blood Demon Child"

Seeing the Blood Demon Child destroyed, Yan Old Devil cried out in alarm.

Realizing the situation was extremely dire, he hurriedly shouted, "Old Devil of Taicang, if you don't make your move now, you might not be able to escape today!"

"Hehehe!"

The Old Devil from Taicang let out a strange laugh and summoned a black demonic sword to slash at it.

In that battle, both the Demon Cave Master and Yan Old Devil had their physical bodies destroyed, but Old Devil Taicang's physical body was not destroyed.

Although he was seriously injured back then, he recovered quickly after a short period of rest.

At that time, he wanted to devour the Golden Core realm of the Demon Cave Master and Yan Old Devil, but the two demons joined forces and, with the help of the Demon Spring and the Demon Cave which they had been running for many years, they managed to deal with him.
