236: Is another battle about to begin in Chapter 236?

On the spirit boat

Lin Ming and the others took the spirit boat to leave Yanyun Mountain. Along the way, other than necessary supplies, they did not linger too long in any towns.

They wanted to return to Yuanxu Mountain as quickly as possible.

This was a consensus reached by everyone.

Cuiyan City was the first city they stayed in after traveling for many days, and it was a large city where many cultivators gathered.

It was also in this city that they obtained quite a bit of information.

This included information about the attack on Yanyun Mountain, where the Yougu Sect, the Blood Fiend Sect, and the Luotian Sect, the three major Demonic Path Sects, joined forces to assault Yanyun Mountain.

A series of reports were released, including news about a mysterious powerhouse killing the leader of the Luotian Sect and resolving the crisis at Yanyun Mountain.

This also included information about the four Immortal Masters, but the reports regarding them were very chaotic. Some claimed the four Immortal Masters were severely injured and were healing, while others claimed they were completely unscathed.

Or that some of them were severely injured, and so on.

The only thing missing was any real information regarding their deaths, betrayals, or similar matters.

In other words, the two families and all other forces had already come to an agreement, and they had sealed off information regarding this aspect.

As for this information regarding the four Immortal Masters, it was likely used to confuse the public, intended to tell others that their four Immortal Masters were still around.

However, it was not just Yanyun Mountain that had been attacked.

Many places in the Qingxuan Realm were attacked by Demonic Path cultivators at the same time. It seemed they had planned it long ago, assaulting cities, prominent families, and Sects everywhere.

Formations similar to the Miluo Refining Absolute Formation were also emerging one after another.

"Wanli City, where hundreds of thousands of Mortals and cultivators lived, was completely slaughtered. They were refined by the Blood Fiend Sect's Crimson Smelting Yuan Tu Array. When the experts from Ximo Mountain arrived, it was already a dead city."

"Immortal Master Guiming of Wanli City, a cultivator at the sixth level of the Bitter Sea, had his head chopped off and hung at the city gate."

"The Changqing Sect was destroyed by the Ghost Evil Sect. The Changqing Immortal Master of this generation, an Immortal Master at the third level of the Other Shore, was drained dry by the people of the Ghost Evil Sect, and his corpse was hung in front of the Changqing Sect's mountain gate."

These Demonic Path cultivators did not occupy these places; instead, after looting all the wealth, they simply retreated.

Of course, many forces resisted the attacks of the Demonic Path cultivators and drove them away, and some even killed all the invading Demonic Path cultivators.

For example, Qiongyin City directly activated its city protection Formation to isolate the entire city from the outside world, and then, under the joint efforts of the city's prominent families, Loose Cultivators, and some Sect Disciples, they killed most of the Demonic Path cultivators.

Although they did pay a certain price.

The Demonic Path cultivators surrounding Qiongyin City eventually had to retreat.

Another example is the Jiuxiao Sect, where its Grand Elder, along with the Immortal Master Qingyan, who was rumored to have passed away many years ago, broke through to the first level of the Nirvana Realm at a critical moment, becoming a Nirvana Ancestor and slaughtering all the invading enemies.

But overall, the losses on the side of the Righteous Path were not small.

Such a united action by the Demonic Path made the vast majority of people in the cultivation world somewhat panicked.

After five hundred years, was the Demonic Path going to start another Righteous-Demonic war?

This caused the atmosphere of the entire cultivation world to become tense instantly.

However, what Lin Ming and the others cared about was not this information.

It was about the information regarding his Revered Master, Ancestor Yun Hua.

Five days ago, Ancestor Yun Hua of Yuanxu Mountain challenged Yin Bo, the Sect Leader of the Beixuan Sect, at the Hechuan Mountain Range. The entire Hechuan Mountain Range was leveled, and the outcome was unknown.

"Does Revered Master have any grudge against the Beixuan Sect Leader?"

Lin Ming frowned and asked.

For Revered Master to take the initiative to challenge someone, there must be some grudge between the two sides; otherwise, given Revered Master's temperament, she shouldn't have done such a thing.

"I don't know."

Xu Chuan shook his head and said.

He really didn't know what grudge existed between Peak Master Yunhua and the Beixuan Sect Leader.

But he knew that the Beixuan Sect Leader Yin Bo was a cultivator at the fourth level of the Nirvana Realm, while Peak Master Yunhua had only recently broken through to the Nirvana Realm. Challenging a powerhouse in the Middle Stage of the Nirvana Realm seemed a bit too reckless.

But when he thought about it being Peak Master Yunhua, it seemed somewhat reasonable.

"Let's return to the Sect. After we return to the Sect, we will know."

Xu Chuan said.

After the group had simple supplies, they embarked on their return journey again.

Twenty days later, with the spirit boat traveling at full speed day and night, they successfully returned to Yuanxu Mountain.

As soon as they returned to Yuanxu Mountain, they went directly to see Sect Master Yun Xiao and reported what had happened at Yanyun Mountain to him.

"I know."

After hearing the report from Xu Chuan and the others, Sect Master Yun Xiao and the Elders nodded slightly.

In fact, Yuanxu Mountain had already known about the Yanyun Mountain incident the very next day, and they also knew that Lin Ming and the others had gone to Yanyun Mountain.

Upon learning that the other side had dispatched a Nirvana Ancestor, they were still somewhat worried about it.

The means Peak Master Yao Churuo had left on Yu Yaoqin had not been triggered, and her bloodline technique also indicated that Yu Yaoqin was very safe.

Later, upon learning that a mysterious powerhouse had killed that Nirvana Ancestor, they felt much more at ease.

"Sect Master, what exactly do these Demonic Path cultivators want?"

Xu Chuan asked in a deep voice.

"Wanqi Mountain."

Sect Master Yun Xiao thought for a moment and said.

There was no need to hide this matter; after all, many cultivators who participated in that battle five hundred years ago were still alive, and those slightly larger forces all knew something about it.

However, after that battle ended, the few top forces issued a gag order, forbidding the casual spread of this matter.

Now that the Demonic Path was restless, there was no need to hide this matter any longer.

"Wanqi Mountain, the place where the decisive battle took place five hundred years ago."

Xu Chuan immediately realized.

Wanqi Mountain was the place where the Nirvana Realm powerhouses of the Righteous and Demonic Paths fought their decisive battle five hundred years ago.

It was where the strongest of the Demonic Path at that time, Ancestor Wuxiang, the Sect Master of the Wuxiang Demon Sect, led the Nirvana Ancestors of various Demonic Sects to challenge them to a battle at Wanqi Mountain, in order to end the Righteous-Demonic struggle that had lasted for nearly five hundred years.

In the battle of Wanqi Mountain, the vast majority of the Nirvana Realm cultivators who participated that year had already fallen, including the former Sect Head of Yuanxu Mountain, the Revered Master of both Sect Master Yun Xiao and Master Yun Hua.

It was also after that battle that Wanqi Mountain was Sealed, becoming a Forbidden Ground, guarded by two Seniors who had participated in that battle.

"Are the targets of these Demonic Path cultivators the Legacy of those Nirvana Realm Demonic cultivators within Wanqi Mountain?"

Xu Chuan seemed to understand something and said immediately.

"I'm afraid so."

Sect Master Yun Xiao nodded.

"Alright, you all go down and have a good rest."

Sect Master Yun Xiao said to the group.

"Sect Master, what grudge does my Revered Master have with the Beixuan Sect?"

Lin Ming looked at Sect Master Yun Xiao and asked.

Full of loopholes.

There were too many questionable points in what Sect Master Yun Xiao had just said.

But since Sect Master Yun Xiao didn't want to say, Lin Ming asked anyway; after all, even if he did, he wouldn't tell him.

But what he wanted to know was about his Revered Master.
