If Chu Mo was only ambushed...
The elders still had the confidence to pay a price to prevent Elder Ba's aura from reaching the South-Heaven Gate.
The outcome of Chu Mo's severe injuries and coma had caused them to lose their confidence.
Not only that...
Even though they had informed the sect, they still felt uneasy.
That was because Elder Ba would know that it was the second ambush that caused Chu Mo's injuries.
Not to mention the elders, even the odd-job workers sweeping the ground in the encampment could feel an invisible sky pressing down on their heads, and their lives were in danger with every breath they took.
As a result...
It was the anger from being slapped in the face by the murderer, coupled with the urgency from the anger of Elder Ba that had yet to arrive.
When the anger from being slapped in the face interacted with the urgency...
The entire South-Heaven Gate became a place for the people of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect to vent their anger.
If there was one person in the entire Hunyuan Immortal Sect's South-Heaven Gate who was not affected by such emotions...
It was undoubtedly Xun Song.
But he couldn't be said to be gloating.
He had been in a daze on the praying mat for several days after being grounded. He felt that even if he could not go out and visit Chu Mo, he should send a Daoist boy to greet him.
After sending the Daoist boy away, Xun Song came back to his senses. His lips moved slightly, as if he was saying that he had the help of the heavens. Then, he sneered and sat down obediently, as steady as an old dog.
The second assassination attempt against Chu Mo...
Not only did it cause a huge commotion in the Hunyuan Immortal Sect's South-Heaven Gate, but all the forces that wanted to have a conflict with the Ancient Heavenly Stairway felt a great malice.
The storm had yet to appear in the four Heavenly Gates...
However, the geniuses of the major forces that were qualified to think about the Ancient Heavenly Stairway seemed to have disappeared from everyone's sight overnight.
The allied forces that were advancing in the Scorching Sun Valley naturally received the news.
However, compared to the previous time, apart from Elder Mu's face turning even paler, the upper echelons did not have a greater reaction.
It was not that they did not care about the filthy things that happened among humans...
Instead, the Demons had finally made a move against the allied forces that had entered their territory.
The Scorching Sun Valley was huge.
The allied forces' lineup was not small either.
It couldn't be said to blot out the sky and cover the earth, but the battle formation that spanned thousands of miles was no less than a battle between nations or even realms in the lower realms.
Unless all the Demons in the Scorching Sun Valley came out in full force, any small skirmish would not be able to shake such a formation. At most, they would become plum blossoms decorating the formation.
As for the Demons' plan, it seemed that they were only aiming for small-scale contact on this tens of thousands of miles of battlefront.
The main body of the alliance army was naturally unable to come into contact with this kind of battle.
However, the Messaging Jade Talismans that came and went every day had created another world above the Allied Army's camp. Every Jade Talisman that came and went was mixed with the loss of lives or the birth of conspiracies.
Sensing the real bloodshed, the coalition army was no longer filled with the calmness of holding their swords and laughing at the sky. Instead, they were frowning vigilance and slightly uncertain confusion about the future.
Of course, the confusion did not belong to the upper echelons of the allied forces.
Battles, even wars, were common to them.
What they paid more attention to was to reap their own benefits in this war that was meant to demonstrate a certain someone's will.
From this, it was naturally to determine the specific location of the will, and then work hard for it.
Therefore, the Jade Talismans that came from the frontlines did not have much meaning to them. Instead, the Jade Talismans that came from the rear would make them raise their spirits and look forward to the news that was related to the Sword Emperor.
What they did was not just look forward to it.
While they were in charge of the allied forces, they were not idle outside.
As an adult, they naturally had the power that an adult should have. While the Sword Emperor's will was leading this war, their power had already become claws and teeth that spread everywhere, approaching all forces to inquire about the Sword Emperor, the Scorching Sun Valley, and even every soldier in the Scorching Sun Valley.
Under the infiltration of such power...
The relationship between Gu Jianfeng, the Green Lotus Sword Technique, and the Sword Emperor, no matter how obscure it was, at some point in time, it would naturally lie in a certain Messaging Jade Talisman for the upper echelons of the allied forces to observe.
"Gu Jianfeng..."
"I know this person. He is an extraordinary sword cultivator who was born in ancient times. He is ranked as a Quasi-emperor and has top-notch battle strength. I even heard that the young master of the Lu Family suffered a loss..."
"But the most surprising thing about this Gu Jianfeng is that he has obtained the inheritance of the Wine Emperor!"
"It is the Green Lotus Sword Technique, sigh..."
"The Green Lotus Sword Technique is rumoured to be the Emperor technique passed down by the Wine Emperor. His attainments in the Sword Dao are even comparable to the Sword Emperor's..."
"Such a treasure is in the hands of Gu Jianfeng?"
"If I remember correctly, yes."
"Is the Sword Emperor doing this for the Green Lotus Sword Technique or for Gu Jianfeng?"
"I can't be sure..."
"For us, this is enough."
"Indeed, no matter what the Sword Emperor wants, we will naturally succeed as long as we bring him to him!"
… …
Will determined everything.
The will of the Sword Emperor determined the battle of the Scorching Sun Valley.
And after understanding the will of the Sword Emperor, the upper echelons of the allied forces also decided how this battle would be carried out.
Soon...
The aides below the upper echelons received an order that made them speechless.
"Full speed, straight into the Thousand Cave Mountain?"
"Let's not talk about such a ridiculous thing as full speed... What the hell is this Thousand Cave Mountain!"
"Yeah, why don't even we know where this place is?"
"What happened to the upper echelons..."
… …
However, their doubts and frustration could not stop the will of the upper echelons.
The only thing they could do was to do their best to ensure that the allied forces arrived at the place safely and at full speed after the upper echelons pointed out the direction of the Thousand Cave Mountain.
This made them even busier.
While they were busy, the team that had taken them months to plan to go deep into the enemy's rear had become a lament in their hearts.
But it was just a lament.
Lament that this chess piece had become useless.
Time passed quickly as the human allied forces, which had been decorated by the small-scale battles of the Demons, marched towards the Thousand Cave Mountain. In the blink of an eye, more than half a year had passed.
In more than half a year...
Feng Po had already walked out of the black hole and saw that the eyeball in his hand belonged to the Demons. After laughing, he carefully and stumbled to explore the Frog Road.
Zhou Xi, whose specific whereabouts had been deduced by the Demons and who had successfully taken the blame for someone, was also like a frightened rabbit, trying to survive in the infinite encirclement of the Demons.
Because of Xie Tian, nearly a hundred thousand people had gathered in the camp, and because of the approach of the Demons, they began to prepare for battle.
And the green lotus that wrapped around Gu Jianfeng finally bloomed slowly...
As soon as it bloomed, Gu Jianfeng could not suppress his laughter, which woke Xie Tian up.
Xie Tian first looked at the cave where Gu Jianfeng was in puzzlement, then realized what he had gained during this period of time. He was very excited.
But thinking that the senior was already laughing, he did not want to follow suit, so he suppressed his laughter and hurriedly walked out of the cave, heading towards Gu Jianfeng.
