Arc 25The Dongfang Family’s Arrival
After the Blood Demon Blessed Land’s survivors returned, Venerable Daohé attacked the Demonic Path while the Yang Family began its move toward independence with Dongfang Yingcai’s support. The Tiger Chasing cultivators gained a chance to strengthen themselves, and the assembled forces reached the Earthly Treasure Secret Realm as the Dongfang Family’s presence unsettled the Central Region.
- Ling Shuang and Yang Yuanhong destroyed the Earth Fiend Demonic Claw, but a new pressure contaminated the exhausted survivors as Luo Qianchou confronted Nangong Jinghe over the Gold Ring.
- Luo Qianchou captured the god above the blood clouds, and Venerable Daohé rescued the righteous cultivators before attacking the Earth Fiend Demon Cave and clashing with four Demonic Path Venerables.
- After three months of fighting, the righteous forces drove the Demonic Path back, while Yang Yuanhong discovered his dormant cultivation was forcing a breakthrough and the Dongfang Family promised to protect the Yang Family.
- Dongfang Yingcai arrived at Pine Mountain with Donglai Sect cultivators, forced the Tiger Chasing Dynasty to withdraw, and privately revealed her family connection to Yang Lingqing and Yang Lingrui.
- Dongfang Yingcai explained how Yang Yuanhong’s plan helped the Yang Family become independent, then paid respects at Yang Linghu’s grave as Dynasty cultivators debated how to aid the family.
- Dongfang Yingcai fought He Shenglai and Shen Yue in a staged contest, with Yang Lingrui secretly replenishing their strength, and the duel reassured Tiger Chasing cultivators that the Yang Family was not in immediate danger.
- Dongfang Yingcai treated Wu Tong, then joined Yang Lingrui and others on the journey to the Earthly Treasure Secret Realm, where Central Region forces claimed the best positions.
- A Central Region cultivator halted the Donglai Sect’s vessel but yielded its place after learning Dongfang Yingcai was aboard, while three Tiger Chasing vessels arrived carrying four True Intent Cultivators.
