"What is this Azure Lotus Holy Spirit doing? Why is such a terrifying phantom appearing behind it?"
Myriad Poisons Palace, Yuan Batian was drenched in cold sweat as he stared at the terrifying phantoms that appeared around Logo.
Among these phantoms are figures wreathed in golden sword energy, colossal monsters entwined with countless trees, exuding both vitality and a devouring aura, and terrifying beings with human heads and snake bodies, their bodies surrounded by churning, unknown waters...
Every single dish gave Yuan Batian a sense of irresistible power.
"Could it be that he is truly confident in suppressing the gods of the lower realms?"
An unbelievable thought suddenly popped into Yuan Batian's mind, catching him off guard. He subconsciously tried to erase the thought, but for some reason, he hesitated to act, staring blankly at Logo until the latter's illusory figure disappeared and he slowly opened his eyes.
Almost simultaneously, Yin Jiuyou entered from outside, bowed respectfully, and said, "Reporting to the Master, representatives from Black Tiger Mountain and Heavenly Martial Hall have come to pay their respects."
"Alright, bring them up." Logo waved his hand nonchalantly, and Yin Jiuyou quickly bowed and retreated, soon bringing back two spiritual cultivators with the cultivation level of the Dharma Realm.
One of them was none other than Perfected Kumu, the Transmission Elder of Black Tiger Mountain. He ranked first among the many elders and was also known as the Grand Elder, second only to the Sect Leader Qingmingzi.
The other man was a bald, burly man with a hideous scar on his face. His eyes were fierce, like those of Savage beast. He wore close-fitting black metal armor, somewhat similar in style to Li Wushe.
This person is named Zhan Wujiang. He cultivates both sword and body techniques, integrating his body with the sword. Every move he makes exudes sword energy, making him extremely lethal. His status in the Heavenly Martial Hall is no less than that of the Perfected Kumu in Black Tiger Mountain.
Having browsed through numerous ancient texts in the Myriad Poisons Sect Sect's Treasury, Logo naturally had a good grasp of the intelligence regarding the high-ranking members of other sects.
Whether it's Perfected Kumu or Zhan Wujiang, they don't need Yin Jiuyou and Li Wushe's introduction to understand the basic situation.
Therefore, he merely glanced at the two of them and directly questioned them, "Why are you two sects not staying in your own territory? What business do you have coming to my Myriad Poisons Sect?"
Upon hearing this, Yin Jiuyou was somewhat dazed. This tone truly sounded like that of the protagonist. If one didn't know the details, no one would have guessed that Logo had just taken over the Myriad Poisons Sect.
The speed of their identity transformation and their remarkable adaptability are truly astonishing.
"Our lord doesn't seem like a novice at all; he's more like... a seasoned veteran?" Li Wushe's eyes also held a hint of suspicion.
Their reaction was even more surprising to the two from the Heavenly Martial Hall and Black Tiger Mountain, but since they were all people who had lived for hundreds of years and had good mental cultivation, they quickly recovered.
The Perfected Kumu of Black Tiger Mountain stepped forward first and said, "Azure Emperor Excellency, I am the withered Perfected Kumu of Black Tiger Mountain. I have been sent by the deities of the Azure Radiance Palace in the upper realm to invite you to join the Azure Radiance Palace. After your ascension, you can directly become a true disciple of the Azure Radiance Palace, with a status comparable to that of a deity!"
Upon hearing this, Yin Jiuyou and Li Wushe were both stunned, and envy unconsciously surfaced in their eyes.
"Damn it, it's amazing to have someone backing you up in the Divine Realm. It's a pity that my Myriad Poisons Sect's Myriad Poisons Patriarch, after ascending to immortality, has never contacted the sect again. We don't even know if he's alive or dead now," Li Wushe muttered to himself.
Among the six super sects of the Mingguang Realm, Black Tiger Mountain and Heavenly Martial Hall have the longest history. It is said that they have existed since the beginning of time. Although they have risen and fallen, they have always been the rulers of this Middle Chiliocosm.
In comparison, other super sects and the Great Xuan Imperial Court are far inferior, and they are constantly changing hands.
The reason why Heavenly Martial Hall and Black Tiger Mountain have been able to survive for so long is not only because they have produced many talented people, but also because they have the support of the upper realm.
Even if talented individuals and powerful figures are lost due to unforeseen circumstances, simply burning a stick of incense can summon a deity to descend to the mortal realm and resolve the problem.
Other super sects do not have this ability, and it is not so easy for them to descend to the lower realm.
Aside from the end of an era, under normal circumstances, during the early, middle, and late stages of a epoch, when deities descend to the mortal realm, even if it's just a projection, they need to build special altars, a cost that could bankrupt most deities.
In the entire Mingguang Realm, it's uncertain whether even one deity will emerge in a single era. To project oneself to the mortal realm and care for future generations is even more difficult.
"A true disciple? His rank is comparable to a deity..."
Logo looked at the Perfected Kumu with a half-smile, "Such generous terms, just given to me for nothing? Azure Radiance Palace is truly generous."
"Your Excellency Azure Emperor, you may not know this," Perfected Kumu hurriedly explained, "You may not be aware of your own identity, but in fact, the blood of the deities of my Azure Radiance Palace flows within you, and according to the palace rules, you are qualified to compete for the position of a true disciple."
"In terms of talent, you are Innate Lifeform, almost equivalent to Divine Body in terms of endowment. It is more than enough for you to be ranked among the true disciples; this is by no means an exaggeration. However..."
As he finished speaking, Perfected Kumu drew out his words, his eyes fixed on Logo, clearly waiting for the latter to ask him something.
Unfortunately, all he got in return was a half-smile, a look of amusement.
Seeing this, Li Wushe, who was standing nearby, almost burst out laughing. He had been serving in the Myriad Poisons Palace, so of course he knew that his master had learned about the plans of Black Tiger Mountain and Azure Radiance Palace from Yuan Batian.
Perfected Kumu's performance now is like dancing naked, and he doesn't even realize it—it's absolutely hilarious.
On the other side, Perfected Kumu waited for a long time, but nothing came. Zhan Wujiang Heavenly Martial Hall stood beside him, staring at him coldly and silently, as if he were a fool.
Perfected Kumu could only smile awkwardly and said to himself, "However, only direct descendants like His Majesty the Azure Emperor can receive such treatment. If you go to other Divine Realm forces, even if you have enough talent, your lack of seniority will undoubtedly be a major disadvantage. I hope His Azure Emperor will consider this carefully and not be misled by certain people."
After saying this, Perfected Kumu glanced at Zhan Wujiang beside him, his eyes filled with a hint of provocation.
Logo took in all these subtle movements, then turned his gaze to Zhan Wujiang and asked, "What do you have to say?"
Zhan Wujiang stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Your Excellency Qingdi, you are wise. What Azure Emperor Perfected Kumu said might have been believable ten thousand years ago, but now it is a complete lie, meant to deceive you."
"What did you say? You're Zhan Wujiang! Zhan Wujiang, you're slandering me!" Perfected Kumu's expression changed drastically, and he shouted angrily.
Logo raised his hand, and a five-colored radiance enveloped the Perfected Kumu, completely masking his voice. He then looked at Zhan Wujiang and smiled, "It seems you came prepared to see me. Tell me in detail."
Zhan Wujiang's pupils constricted slightly as he looked at the multicolored glow around him, but he remained calm and cupped his hands, saying, "Your Excellency the Azure Emperor should know that my Heavenly Martial Hall is a branch of the Golden Radiance Palace of the Divine Realm, and has always maintained contact with the Upper Realm. Ten thousand years ago, a turmoil broke out within the Azure Radiance Palace. The lineage of Withering and Flourishing, Life and Death rebelled, overthrowing the original direct lineage of Carefree Longevity and slaughtering countless people. They are still relentlessly pursuing us to this day."
"You do indeed possess the bloodline of the Carefree Longevity lineage, but unfortunately, the Azure Radiance Palace is currently ruled by the Withering and Flourishing, Life and Death lineage. They only wish to exterminate you and will never allow you to become a true disciple."
Amidst the five-colored glow, the Perfected Kumu naturally heard Zhan Wujiang's words, and his expression suddenly changed drastically.
"Damn it, I didn't expect the Heavenly Martial Hall to react so quickly and make a decision that's not safe for themselves. Are they planning to win over these remnants of the carefree sect?"
The thoughts in Perfected Kumu's mind were like turbulent waves. He thought about many things, but he kept explaining himself and frantically attacking Heavenly Martial Hall and Golden Radiance Palace. His only point of view was that the two were enemies.
How can we trust the enemy?
Zhan Wujiang is just trying to fool you!
This is deliberately muddying the waters.
Those unaware of the truth would likely Zhan Wujiang and Perfected Kumu equally, trying to find out the details and distinguish between truth and falsehood.
This back and forth will consume a lot of energy.
This buys time for the deities of the Azure Radiance Palace to descend to the mortal realm.
What troubled Perfected Kumu was that the remnant of the carefree sect should have been able to hear him, but why hadn't he made any statement?
And what was the meaning behind Li Wushe's expression from the Ten Myriad Poisons Sect? Pity?
And that ugly black monkey, why is it looking at me like that?
Logo ignored the Perfected Kumu, who had become a complete clown. He looked at Zhan Wujiang and said, "What does 'Golden Radiance Palace' mean? Explain it clearly."
"A message has arrived from the upper realm. The Palace Master has personally issued a decree: if you are willing to join the Golden Radiance Palace, our Heavenly Martial Hall is willing to fully assist you in becoming the Lord of the Mingguang Realm. If you are not willing, we can still become friends and fight against the Azure Radiance Palace together."
Zhan Wujiang recounted in detail what the deity of the Golden Radiance Palace in the upper realm had passed down to him.
Logo nodded slightly upon hearing this.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
This statement applies everywhere.
"It seems that Golden Radiance Palace is determined that Azure Radiance Palace will not let me go. Indeed, the infighting among internal factions is far more ruthless than the struggle against external enemies," Logo thought to himself.
"Since that's the case, there's nothing more to say. The Azure Radiance Palace deities will descend to the mortal realm at any time, but that certainly won't change because of Black Tiger Mountain. I want to set up the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Fiends Grand Formation, which requires a lot of materials and helpers. I can temporarily cooperate with the Heavenly Martial Hall, but we can't let our guard down. Who knows what the Golden Radiance Palace is really thinking?"
You can't see into someone's heart. Logo will never easily trust anyone; he only trusts self-interest.
"As for Black Tiger Mountain, let's destroy it! We can seize some resources to deal with our immediate crisis."
With many thoughts flashing through his mind, Logo made a decision. He raised his hand, his five fingers gently clenched, and the multicolored light surrounding the Perfected Kumu suddenly changed, becoming chillingly murderous.
Sensing the killing intent, the Perfected Kumu immediately understood that the Azure Lotus Holy Spirit had murderous intent, and that his chances of survival were slim.
But he was still struggling, continuing to spout frantic explanations while simultaneously smearing Heavenly Martial Hall and Golden Radiance Palace, all the while unleashing his signature spell, ' Reverse Life Tide '.
Within the Dharma Realm, a deathly stillness permeated the air. Countless tentacles, imbued with death Spirit Pattern, stretched out, frantically pounding against the five-colored light, attempting to break free of their restraints.
As a spiritual cultivator in the late stage of the Dharma Realm, Perfected Kumu's strength was almost at the level of Demigod, but unfortunately, he was still no match for Logo, who had the home-field advantage.
Logo's single-handed grip remained unchanged, firm and decisive.
As he moved, the multicolored rays of light instantly solidified into a five-colored celestial sword, its clanging sound like five divine dragons roaring and soaring. Its speed was extremely fast and continuous, sealing everything off. In a short while, it severed all the tentacles of death, leaving the Perfected Kumu drenched in sweat.
In the end, this once powerful cultivator of the Dharma Realm, who had dominated the Mingguang Realm, died so easily amidst the five-colored sword light.
His entire being, including his physical body and soul, was enveloped and refined by the five-colored sword light. After returning to its original state, it transformed into primordial Spirit Pattern and disappeared into the Azure Lotus Platform beneath Logo.
On the twelve blue lotus petals, a tiny, insignificant stroke is depicted.
"Five-Colored Divine Light!"
Zhan Wujiang's eyelids twitched wildly. Looking at the five-colored light that Logo had put away, he was absolutely certain that if he fell into it, his fate would not be much better than that of the Perfected Kumu.
The five colors and five elements encompass all things, and nothing can restrain them, but they can restrain any spell or spiritual practitioner.
This is merely the prototype of the Five-Colored Divine Light Great God; what magnificence it would possess in its true, complete form!
Amidst fear, Zhan Wujiang couldn't help but indulge in daydreams, unrelated to anything else; this was simply a heart yearning for the Dao.
"Go back and tell the deities of the Golden Radiance Palace that I can stand with the Golden Radiance Palace against the Azure Radiance Palace. Here is a list of supplies; your Heavenly Martial Hall should gather them as soon as possible and send them over."
As he spoke, Logo tossed out a jade slip, which Zhan Wujiang caught with his hand. After scanning it with his divine sense, his mind was in turmoil.
"So many resources... Oh well, the ones who should be worried are the Sect Leader and the God of Realms anyway. My mission is complete." With that thought, Zhan Wujiang bowed respectfully to Logo again and withdrew.
After this person left the Myriad Poisons Palace, Logo looked at Yin Jiuyou, his voice turning cold, like the Nine Nether Regions wind of the Netherworld, "Summon all spiritual cultivators of the Dharma Realm, all Myriad Poison Dao Soldiers, and follow me to flatten Black Tiger Mountain!"
"Yes, sir!" Yin Jiuyou hurriedly bowed his head and retreated to gather his men.
Before long, a formidable battle formation had been set up in front of the Myriad Poisons Palace.
Three thousand Myriad Poison Dao Soldiers, divided into teams of one hundred, each wielding a spiritual weapon, with array patterns engraved on their bodies, could easily connect their auras, appearing as one person. Together, they were even capable of suppressing Yin Jiuyou, the strongest member of the Myriad Poisons Sect.
The only problem is its lack of maneuverability.
Although the Myriad Poisons Palace is Spirit Treasure, it contains a virtual space. However, due to the suppression of the Heavenly Dao in the Mingguang Realm, the virtual space cannot materialize and cannot support living beings. Therefore, under normal circumstances, it can only be used to guard the home.
However, since Logo is prepared to send out the Myriad Poison Dao Soldiers into battle, he naturally has the means to traverse hundreds of thousands of miles of territory.
He stood suspended in mid-air, looking down at the cultivator below. He took out the Cloud-Patterned Heaven-Monitoring Mirror, and as spiritual energy surged into it, a clear and bright beam of light shot out, opening a portal a hundred feet high in mid-air.
This is already the limit of the Cloud-Patterned Heaven-Monitoring Mirror.
But for Logo, it wasn't enough.
With a flick of his finger, the Azure Lotus Platform spun rapidly and disappeared into the spatial portal. Countless spatial attribute Spirit Pattern twisted and intertwined, and in an instant, the portal, which was originally a hundred feet tall, grew to a thousand feet tall, and the teleportation distance also increased dramatically.
"Set off!"
At a command, Li Wushe was the first to rush into the spatial portal, followed closely by Yin Jiuyou, Granny Yao, Granny Gu, and others, then three thousand Myriad Poison Dao Soldiers, and then many elite disciples of the Myriad Poisons Sect, almost the entire sect came out.
at the same time.
Black Tiger Mountain Range.
The long, drawn-out chimes echoed within the sect.
On Azure Nether Peak, inside the Hall of Life and Death, Qingmingzi stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes filled with worry.
"The Kumu's fall indicates that negotiations have broken down. It's highly likely that that wretched creature already knows the current situation of the Azure Radiance Palace. Given his vengeful nature since birth, he might very well lead an attack on Black Tiger Mountain..."
The thought had barely crossed his mind when suddenly, outside the Black Tiger Mountain, lightning flashed and thunder roared, a gale swept across the land, snapping countless plants and trees, as if in an apocalyptic scene, and a majestic gate slowly opened.
Hold head high!!
A domineering roar of a poisonous dragon echoed through the sky, and figures clad in black robes stood tall in the air, their banners obscuring the sun, bearing the three large characters: Myriad Poisons Sect.
"Today, Black Tiger Mountain shall be annihilated, leaving not a single chicken or dog alive! Kill!"
With a cold rebuke, accompanied by the falling of the five-colored divine sword, the ' Azure Nether Dark Tiger Life and Death Wheel Array' that had just been opened on the surface of Black Tiger Mountain collapsed suddenly without even lasting a moment, turning into Endless spiritual light that scattered across the heavens and earth, like the weeping of the heavens, as if foreshadowing the imminent demise of the sect that had dominated this place for 100,000 years.
