"It seems the Six Primordial Evil Daos really are after the Death Desert!"
In the imperial study of the Huaxia Empire, Chen Zhan put down the intelligence handed to him by Li Daozong. Having the same guess as Li Daozong, he felt much more at ease.
A few days ago, they discovered that the Six Primordial Evil Daos, and even the entire Devil Dao forces, had sent a large number of powerful figures to gather in that kid's territory, which greatly surprised them.
After all, that represents nearly half of the Devil Dao foundation; if there are any malicious intentions, it will surely be a disaster.
They had many guesses about the Devil Dao Path's actions, and most of them pointed to the Death Desert.
After all, that Kid Hao's fiefdom is right on the edge of the Death Desert, and only the Death Desert itself has the power to mobilize half of the Devil Dao's resources.
As they had expected, the powerful Devil Dao cultivators who had gathered there the day before finally marched into the interior of the Death Desert, which relieved them.
After all, although their Huaxia Empire is not afraid of Devil Dao forces at present, it is only not afraid. Once a war breaks out with them, they will suffer heavy losses and even face the danger of national annihilation.
Therefore, it is best to avoid war with them if possible.
Like the Huaxia Empire, the righteous forces that were also paying close attention to this matter secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
They were genuinely afraid that the Devil Dao forces might go berserk and start a war between the righteous and the demonic, which would benefit no one.
Unbeknownst to all the forces, after entering the Death Desert, those powerful Devil Dao cultivators secretly changed direction and quietly arrived at the area where Azure Cloud Temple was located, where they began to make preparations.
"Young friend Wang, do you really think this approach will work?"
Dongfang Xiaotian and his companions gathered together, and even though they were as strong as they were, they couldn't help but look worried.
Wang Hao's plan was simply too crazy and audacious. Their original plan was to break through the protective formation of Azure Cloud Temple, snatch True Person Qingxu, and run away. This way, they would have a great chance to break out of the righteous forces' territory before the righteous forces could fully react.
Once they get out of here, the pressure on them will be much less, so the core of the original plan was to win quickly.
But after arriving here, Wang Hao had an even more insane plan: not only to capture True Person Qingxu, but also to take Qingxu Temple and even the surrounding millions of miles of land with him.
This is absolutely insane, and what's worse, they actually have this ability, and judging from their own perspective, it all seems quite plausible.
They then agreed to this brand-new, crazy plan and spent three whole days strategizing it.
He meant that they had been hiding here for three days, and even though they were prepared, they were nearing their limit.
After all, this is the stronghold of the righteous forces. Although it's not the very core area, it's still very close.
They're not blind, how could they not see them?
Three days is already the limit. If they don't leave soon, they will be ganged up on by the righteous forces who have realized what's happening, and then it will be difficult to leave even if they want to.
"Eight men, buy me half Tokiomi!"
While busy at work, Wang Hao suddenly looked up at the west, calmly said something, and then continued to make the final adjustments to the formation.
Not long after Wang Hao finished speaking, Dongfang Xiaotian and the other two also suddenly looked up and headed due west.
They sensed that seven powerful individuals of the same level were approaching, and judging from their auras, they were all old adversaries.
" Xiang Kunlun, I can smell your stench from a mile away. Are you still going to hide?"
Seven figures exuding a terrifying aura flew over rapidly, and the old Daoist priest in the lead let out a cold laugh.
The Xiang Kunlun mentioned by the old Daoist priest was God King Level expert who had emerged from Muddling Heavenly Dao at Hun Tian Dao. In terms of seniority, he was only slightly inferior to Dongfang Xiaotian.
"Brother Dongfang, Sister Nangong, it seems we really have to risk our lives this time!"
With a sigh, Xiang Kunlun soared into the sky wielding a halberd radiating demonic energy, charging towards the old Daoist priest. His first move was a desperate, deadly strike, which directly held back the old Daoist priest and another God King Level expert beside him.
Nangong Xingyue also acted decisively, stopping two God King Level experts as well, while Dongfang Xiaotian was even more formidable, taking on the remaining three God King Level experts by himself.
While this would be a disadvantage against two or three equally powerful opponents, it wouldn't be a problem to hold them off for the time being.
Furthermore, they all unleashed their desperate secret techniques, resulting in an explosive increase in their strength, which was enough to suppress the righteous experts on the other side for a short period of time.
Fortunately, this place is close to the core area of the righteous forces, and is protected by the Heaven-Deceiving Formation within, which prevents their aura from being sensed by heaven and earth, thus avoiding Heavenly Punishment.
After all, the Human Realm can only accommodate the Peak Sixth Tier. Once one surpasses the Peak Sixth Tier and becomes Immortal God- level powerhouse, one must ascend to the Immortal Realm, let alone an Eighth Tier God King like them.
Of course, both sides in the conflict consciously and deliberately suppressed the scope of their offensive to avoid affecting the areas below.
The three of them, including Dongfang Xiaotian, were on the ground because Wang Hao and many other experts from the Demon Sect were setting up a grand formation below them, and they naturally couldn't let the aftershocks of the battle affect their own people.
The seven powerful figures of the righteous path, however, were in danger because the area below was their own territory, and many Dragon Vein existed there. If they were to affect the Dragon Vein, they would suffer a great loss.
However, the righteous experts were not fools. They quickly guessed that the Devil Dao had made an important arrangement below. Such an arrangement, which could make Dongfang Xiaotian and the other two fight so desperately, should not be underestimated.
Although we can't yet guess what kind of conspiracy the other side is plotting, as an opposing force, it's always right to thwart their plans.
Immediately, many righteous experts who had come with the seven God King Level powerhouses also launched their attacks, targeting the numerous Devil Dao experts below who were maintaining their formation.
Unfortunately, they acted too late. A protective array covering a radius of millions of miles suddenly rose up, isolating countless righteous experts outside.
Looking at the thick protective array, all the righteous experts turned ashen-faced.
This level of array shield is simply beyond their ability to break through, at least not in the short term.
"A trivial skill!"
Suddenly, a burly man with his upper body bare appeared, his five fingers clenched into a fist, and he slammed down fiercely towards the thick array shield.
Damn it!
The moment the burly man Pu Yi appeared, Dongfang Xiaotian and the other two's expressions changed, and they immediately wanted to rush down to stop him.
Because that was also a God King Level expert. Although the array barrier formed below was very powerful, it could only withstand the attacks of Seventh Tier Immortal God. If it involved the power of Eighth Tier God King Level, it would be useless.
If that God King Level expert were to break in, all their plans would be in vain.
"Let's stay!"
The seven powerful righteous cultivators would not allow Dongfang Xiaotian and his companions to have their way, so they held them back and prevented them from going down to provide assistance.
If the three opponents could hold off the seven of them, then the seven of them could naturally hold off the three opponents as well, perhaps even more easily.
No matter what schemes the Devil Dao may have, they will inevitably crumble in the face of absolute power.
But what happened next made everyone present widen their eyes. Before the burly man's fist could land on the array barrier, a palm print carrying terrifying Demonic Sha suddenly blasted out, not only shattering the fist but also sending the burly man's entire body flying.
Watching the burly man disappear into the distant horizon like Daoliu, not only were the seven righteous experts stunned, but even Dongfang Xiaotian and the other two were taken aback.
However, these individuals were all seasoned experts with top-notch combat skills. They reacted in an instant and launched into another fierce battle, even more brutal than before.
Because it wasn't just Dongfang Xiaotian and his two companions who were fighting desperately; the seven righteous experts were also fighting desperately.
As the righteous side, they would never allow the Devil Dao's conspiracy to succeed. Previously, they had no worries because they had that burly man hidden in the shadows as their trump card.
However, the opponent also has a hidden God King Level expert, who sent the burly man flying with a single blow, demonstrating his formidable strength.
Now they have no way out and must thwart the Devil Dao's conspiracy as soon as possible, no matter what.
Dongfang Xiaotian and his two companions were outnumbered and, facing seven righteous experts who were also unleashing their desperate methods, they were quickly injured and suppressed.
Even so, the three did not give up and continued to hold off the seven righteous experts.
Because the agreed-upon half- Tokiomi deadline with Wang Hao was fast approaching.
"Hold head high..."
Suddenly, just as the seven righteous experts had severely injured Dongfang Xiaotian and his two companions, achieved victory, and were preparing to break through the array barrier below, a series of deep dragon roars came from the depths of the earth below.
Immediately afterwards, the earth within a radius of millions of miles trembled violently, and then slowly—no, rapidly—rose up.
In no time, a vast area of land, spanning millions of miles, was forcibly ripped out and sent flying into the sky.
Having suffered heavy losses, Dongfang Xiaotian and his two companions decisively retreated into the rising continent.
"You old bastard, no need to see me off! Hahaha..."
Xiang Kunlun laughed heartily, a truly hearty laugh!
Similarly, Dongfang Xiaotian and Nangong Xingyue, who were standing to the side, also had smiles on their faces.
The plan was a complete success, and the results far exceeded their initial expectations.
Although this vast area spanning millions of miles is not the core region of the righteous forces, it still possesses an Ancestral Dragon Vein and hundreds of Branch Dragon Vein, more than enough to support a top-tier force.
Most importantly, they took away the entire Azure Cloud Temple, which was located on the Ancestral Dragon Vein. This would not only deal a huge blow to the righteous forces, but would also strengthen their Devil Dao forces, making it a win-win situation.
"Ah... Devil Dao demons, this old Daoist priest will never let you get away with this!"
Watching helplessly as such a large piece of their territory was seized, the seven righteous experts, as well as the burly man who had been blasted away by Wang Hao's palm and then returned, were all furious, their eyes bloodshot.
Now they finally understood the Devil Dao's conspiracy, but they never expected the other side to be so crazy as to come directly to their headquarters to seize territory, and actually succeed.
The worst part is that they can't stop it now, because the moment that continent rose, it was already outside the range of the Heaven-Deceiving Formation. If they make any further moves, the heavens and Heavenly Punishment.
It wasn't just these Eighth Tier God King who couldn't make a move; even those Seventh Tier Immortal Martial level cultivators were unable to act, otherwise they would be forced to ascend to the Immortal Realm.
Once these people are forced to ascend to the Immortal Realm, their righteous forces will inevitably suffer another major loss of strength.
However, to prevent that continent from being taken away, at least the power of God King Level would be required; otherwise, even that layer of array barrier wouldn't be able to be broken.
The powerful figures from all the righteous forces outside were filled with rage and hatred, while the righteous forces on the continent that had been taken away were devastated, especially the Azure Cloud Temple, which was now in complete chaos.
Meanwhile, True Person Qingxu, the current abbot of Azure Cloud Temple, had a complicated expression on her face. After sensing the appearance of a large number of powerful figures from the Six Primordial Evil Daos Era, she guessed what was going on. It must have been that bastard's doing.
She never expected that bastard would go to such lengths.
