After seeing off Lord Tian Shang and Lord Kun Ling, Li Mu told Xia Xue'er and Liu Yalan, and then hurried back to Crescent Island to take care of spiritual plants and refine spiritual treasures, not wanting to get too involved in outside affairs.
If it weren’t for the Purple Yang Ganoderma, Yin Po Fruit, and the batch of fourth-level Five Element Spiritual Plants in the Painting World Treasure Mansion that were not yet mature and could not be harvested, Li Mu would have wanted to leave the Wanxing Sea, a place of right and wrong, and find a place to continue. Get up.
While Li Mu was taking care of the spiritual plants and concentrating on refining the weapons.
In the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars, strong winds suddenly rose, the waves rolled, and a strong 'hurricane' suddenly erupted from an island in the sea. Its power was so powerful that it seemed to sweep the entire sea area away.
The source of this ‘hurricane’ is not a natural celestial phenomenon, but the Xuantian Sword Sect and Taiyi Sect from the Zhongzhou Spiritual Domain.
The monks of the Xuantian Sword Sect and the Taiyi Sect joined forces with the indigenous forces in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Area to launch an unprecedented carpet investigation, going deep into every island, digging out all the forces in this sea area, and searching for traces of the Nine Demon Sect.
In the end, they really discovered the lurking force of the Nine Demons Sect in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea. Its whereabouts were so secret that it was staggering.
With in-depth investigation, they discovered that several demon ancestors of the Nine Demon Sect and dozens of demon lords were performing some unknown actions in this sea area. What was even more shocking was that Qing Qing Yanfang, Xueying Tower and several other small organizations in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea area have actually fallen into the hands of the Nine Demons Sect and have become pawns under their secret control.
The war was about to break out. Sword Master Feng of the Xuantian Sword Sect took the lead in attacking. He swung out his sword with sword energy in all directions, and directly attacked the Annihilation Demon Ancestor of the Nine Demon Sect...
The sudden battle lasted for several days. The entire sea area was shrouded in sword energy and demonic energy. The sword energy was vertical and horizontal, and the demonic energy was rolling. Most of the Ten Thousand Stars Sea area fell into unprecedented chaos, as if When the end of the world came, the sea surface became rough, and huge waves and tsunamis of tens of feet rolled up like angry dragons. Hundreds of islands were reduced to nothing in this catastrophe.
The Demon Ancestors and Demon Lords of the Nine Demons Sect are certainly powerful, but the Central Continent Allied Forces of the Xuantian Sword Sect and Taiyi Sect are even more powerful. Under the joint attack of the indigenous forces of the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Area, the Nine Demons Sect retreats step by step and hides. The island's covering magic formation, Jueyin Demonic Formation, and the island's protective formation were quickly broken, and they quickly fell into a disadvantage.
For a time, the demon ancestors and demon lords of the Nine Demon Sect were dying, fleeing, and retreating one after another. Some of the forces of the Nine Demon Sect suffered a devastating blow in the melee, while others were He took the opportunity to escape from the battlefield, running around and hiding.
......
In the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars, under a thousand-foot deep sea, there is a quiet and remote underwater cave. There is no sunlight, no life, only endless darkness and powerful oppression in the deep sea.
However, this forgotten corner has become a refuge for the remaining forces of the Nine Demons Sect. They hide in the caves under the deep sea to temporarily avoid the indigenous forces from the Zhongzhou Spiritual Domain and the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Territory. Chase.
"Damn it! It's all your fault!" Demon Ancestor Wutian glared angrily at Hongshan and Hongshuang, and shouted angrily.
“If you hadn’t encouraged me to avenge you, how could our secret operation in the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars be exposed so easily!”
Before he finished speaking, Wutian Demon Ancestor suddenly took out his palm. , and knocked Hongshan away with one palm.
Wutian Demon Ancestor’s eyes widened in anger. The Nine Demon Sect suffered extremely heavy losses this time. The Xuantian Sword Sect’s attack came too suddenly and too quickly. Even he almost died on the spot.
Hongshan rolled around in the air, spurting blood from his mouth, and finally fell heavily to the ground. He struggled to get up, with a look of resentment and fear on his face, and said in a hateful voice: "Demon ancestor, spare your life. "How can you blame me for this matter? It's all because of Venerable Huanglong's failure in doing things. Otherwise, how could he arouse the other party's suspicion? He even informed the elders of the Ten Thousand Islands Sect that this matter has nothing to do with me at all."
Hearing this, Hongshuang trembled and looked at Hongshan in disbelief. This is really her good brother! She was so greedy for life and afraid of death that in order to survive, she actually blamed her. A trace of disappointment and pain flashed in her eyes, and she felt extremely angry at Hongshan's betrayal.
"Ancestor, there is almost no mistake in this matter with the Yellow Dragon Venerable. The only reason is that the Nascent Soul boy is too vigilant!" At this time, another God-Transforming Demon Lord interjected.
"Please tell me, ancestor!" Hongshuang quickly knelt down on one knee and said with a trembling voice.
Hearing this, Wutian Demon Ancestor’s murderous intention subsided slightly, and his scarlet eyes gradually returned to clarity. At present, the Nine Demon Sect has suffered heavy losses. However, the purpose of this trip has not yet been achieved. Hongshuang sister and brother still have A little value.
Wutian Demon Ancestor took a deep look at Hongshuang and said in a deep voice: "If you two siblings can't find the sealing place in three months, there will be no value in keeping it! ”
Wutian Demon Ancestor's voice was cold and firm, leaving no room for bargaining.
Obviously, this is the ultimatum given to them by the Wutian Demon Ancestor. They must complete this task within three months, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.
“Yes!”
Hongshuang answered the order respectfully.
During this period, she and her subordinates were looking for the sealing place obtained by Wutian Demon Ancestor, and they already had some clues. If it hadn’t been for this unexpected encirclement and suppression, she would have found this sealed place long ago. came out.
"Yes!"
A trace of fear flashed in Hongshan's eyes and he responded.
"Get out of here! Leave me alone!" Wutian Demon Ancestor looked around at the remaining people and scolded angrily.
"My subordinates resign!" Everyone responded to the order and quickly left this place full of chilling atmosphere. Hongshuang and Hongshan also left the undersea cave,
...
< br>
"Sister, I was panicked just now!" As soon as he came out of the cave, Hongshan suddenly realized that his behavior had almost harmed Hongshuang, and he felt panicked. He took a step forward and apologized to Hongshuang.
Hongshuang stopped, turned around, and looked deeply at Hongshan, his eyes full of disappointment and pain. Hongshan once again chilled his heart. For this younger brother, Hongshuang has already Desperate!
Hongshuang also understands that this is not the time to hold people accountable. If they fail to complete this task, the lives of their siblings may really be in danger. The blame at this time has no meaning.
"Be careful in the future!" Hongshuang said in a trembling voice with mixed feelings in her heart, trying to calm down her emotions.
After saying that, Hong Shuang turned around and left. What he needed to do now was to find the sealing place as soon as possible.
"Sister, have you found any clues about that sealed place?" Hongshan spoke up again, stopped Hongshuang and asked with concern.
Hongshuang stopped, looked back at Hongshan, and said lightly: "Don't worry about this matter! I have my own plan!"
As soon as the words fell, Hongshuang turned into a streak. The red shadow disappeared in the blink of an eye. Watching Hong Shuang leave, Hongshan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, with a hint of joy on his face. From the sister's tone, this mission was probably a success.
————
On Ten Thousand Stars Island, a large number of spiritual ships are parked densely like giant dragons on the harbor, with flags flying and momentum like a rainbow. These spiritual ships are all warships from major sects. They gather here with great momentum.
The flagship of Xuantian Sword Sect is particularly eye-catching. Ancient sword patterns are engraved on the hull, exuding fierce sword energy. In the flagship cabin, a group of high-level monks gathered, and the atmosphere was solemn and solemn. .
Sword Master Feng, the sword master of a sword peak of Xuantian Sword Sect, is sitting at the top of the table at this moment. He is dressed in a green robe, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He has an extraordinary temperament. He scans the crowd with his sharp eyes, and there is a trace of emotion in his eyes. The sword intention is contained but not released.
Zeng Hall Master, the Taishang Elder of Taiyi Sect, is also a powerful person in the Fusion Realm. He is wearing a golden robe, with black hair blowing in the wind, and his aura is restrained, like an ordinary old man.
The leader of the younger generation of Wanfo Sect - Qizhi Holy Monk, with a majestic appearance and a look of compassion on his face. He is dressed in white monk robes and has a handsome face. He holds a string of Buddhist beads in his hand and twists them gently. When it moves, it exudes a faint Buddha light.
The elders of the eight major family branches also occupy a corner. They are one of the core figures of the eight major cultivation families. The talkers of the other major and minor sects may be majestic, elegant, or mysterious, but without exception they are all members of their respective sects. The outstanding leaders, whose strength should not be underestimated, gathered together to discuss the matter of eradicating the influence of the Nine Demon Sect in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea.
“Everyone,” Sword Master Feng spoke slowly, his voice revealing a sense of majesty and power, “Through the soul search of the two Demon Ancestors, we learned that the Nine Demon Sect came to the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars this time. Purpose."
Everyone listened attentively, and Sword Master Feng continued: "The main purpose of the Nine Demon Sect's trip is to find a sealing place."
"Ten thousand years ago, The Demonic Abyss invaded this realm, causing a war between the two realms, and the destruction of all life. In order to completely seal the passage between the two realms and protect the realm from the invasion of monsters, several Dao Lords joined forces and arranged eight boundary-separating seals. These eight seals are located in The Central Continent Spiritual Territory, the Southern Wilderness Continent, the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Territory, the Northern Qiongtian Mountains, and the Western Territory are among the places where the Nine Demon Sect has extended its claws to a certain boundary seal in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Territory." Sword Master Feng introduced with a sword glare in his eyes. .
Everyone was stunned, their faces full of shock and confusion. They had never heard of the secrets about the seal, and they did not expect that the Nine Demon Sect’s target this time would be this sealed place. This news was like a cold current, instantly penetrating their hearts and making them feel spines. Chill.
"The Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm has fallen, and the Nine Demon Sect must not be allowed to succeed!" The Supreme Elder of the Shangguan family said through gritted teeth.
"Fortunately, the discovery was timely, otherwise, the consequences would have been disastrous!" The holy monk Qizhi sighed, feeling happy and worried intertwined in his heart.
"The ambitions of the Nine Demon Sect are obvious, and they must be eradicated as soon as possible!"
...
Everyone agreed, knowing that the situation at this moment is urgent. They must act quickly.
"Sword Master Feng." The former master of the Taiyi Sect looked at Sword Master Feng and asked with concern: "Now that we know the purpose of the Nine Demon Sect's coming to the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars, we have to prevent this matter. What should we do next?"
< br>Sword Master Feng nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "The purpose of our trip was originally to support the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm and completely close the gap in the Southern Wilderness Demonic Abyss Passage. This matter cannot be delayed without delay, and the action plan remains unchanged, but , a group of people need to be left to be responsible for finding the sealed place where the Ten Thousand Stars Sea is located, and completely eradicating the remaining forces of the Nine Demon Sect in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea."
Sword Master Feng's eyes flashed with murderous intent, knowing full well. Once the Nine Demons Sect's cruelty and greed succeed, the world will be doomed.
Sword Master Feng then arranged: "At the same time, I will notify all the sects in Zhongzhou to pay close attention to the movements of several other sealed places to ensure that they will not fall into the hands of the Nine Demons Sect."
"Sword Master Feng is wise!" Everyone praised in unison.
"Sword Master Feng is famous. I don't know how to arrange the personnel left behind in the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars?" A certain family elder asked with concern.
"Yes! There is no room for loss in the sealed place in the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars. Not only can we find it faster than the Nine Demons Sect, we must also put up heavy defense lines to ensure that nothing is missed."
"Indeed. , this matter is extremely critical. We must be prepared for a decisive battle with the remnants of the Nine Demon Sect. Once they really find the sealed place and try to break the seal, they must be completely eliminated quickly."
...< br>
As soon as Sword Master Feng finished speaking, other family elders and heads of small sects expressed their agreement one after another. Their eyes eagerly turned to Sword Master Feng, waiting for his next instructions.
Next, Sword Master Feng will assign candidates to station in the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars, which is what they are most concerned about.
This time, the two missions carried out by the combined fleet to the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Domain were both narrow escape operations. Everyone was particularly looking forward to staying and dealing with the remnants of the Nine Demon Sect.
Compared to going to the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm to carry out the mission of narrow escape, the task of staying to find the sealed land and eradicate the remaining forces of the Nine Demon Sect is difficult, but the chance of survival is obviously many times greater.
Sword Master Feng's keen eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, and he knew their thoughts very clearly.
He even considered leaving this opportunity to the disciples of Xuantian Sword Sect. After all, they are the core strength of the sect... However, for the sake of the overall situation and due to emotions and reasons, he cannot Do this.
Sword Master Feng thought for a moment and made a good decision immediately, and said in a deep voice: "This time, we were able to discover the Nine Demon Sect's traces in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea in advance and eliminate most of their forces in advance. Thanks to Elder Chen of the Ten Thousand Island Sect. Tianshang and Kun Ling of the Kun family, it is precisely because of their keen awareness and reporting of this information that we are able to re-create the Nine Demon Sect in one fell swoop"
"The three of them have made great contributions, and each will be rewarded with a hundred thousand Merit, and leave this matter to them, what do you think?" After a pause, Sword Master Feng looked around the audience and made a decision.
Hearing this, the faces of the small sect leaders and family elders flashed a look of disappointment. However, Sword Master Feng’s arrangement was very fair and reasonable, and they had no reason to object.
“Just follow Sword Master Feng’s decree!” A small sect leader was the first to express his support.
"Well! With the cooperation of the local sect forces, we should be able to find the sealed place before the Nine Demons Sect!" Another family elder also agreed.
...
The three of them had made meritorious deeds. Faced with such an arrangement, they immediately had no chance to argue. Everyone also agreed and supported Sword Master Feng’s decision. (End of this chapter)
