Since Luo Canghai was captured, there was nothing left to do here. After saying goodbye to Huo Xuan and the others, Zhang Yan returned to the peak with the help of Feng Yun. He meditated and adjusted his Qi, waiting for the time to go to the Extreme Heaven.
The night passed in the blink of an eye. On the second day, when the rooster crowed, the bell on Dan Raising Peak suddenly rang. All the peaks heard it. It was to summon the disciples of Xuanmen to discuss matters.
In a flash, dozens of light rays shot up the peak. In less than a moment, the disciples of the ten sects and the elders of the sects all arrived at the hall on Dan Raising Peak.
This time, Ying Ya Daoren sat on the right, and the person in the main seat was Elder Liu, who had been meditating in the back of the mountain since the sword fight. This time, Daoren's hair and beard were all white. His eyes were bright, and he was in high spirits. He held a horsetail whisk in his arms and looked like an immortal.
When everyone met, it was inevitable for them to be courteous. After greeting each other, they sat down on the praying mats.
Elder Liu waited for everyone to sit down, then he knocked the jade chime beside him. When everyone in the hall looked at him, he said loudly, "Although Xuanmen had the upper hand in the sword fight these two days, only the disciples of the five sects can go to the Extreme Heaven with the talisman. This has weakened the power of Xuanmen, and this is very inappropriate. Yuan Yang Sect didn't get the talisman this time because of an accident. Yang Zhenren and his wife are both powerful. If they can go to the Extreme Heaven with the talisman, they will have a higher chance of winning against the disciples of the Devil Sect. Everyone, what do you think?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of laughter rang out from his seat. Tong Yingyuan of the Southern Flower Sect took the initiative to step forward. He cupped his fists and said, "Elder Liu, forgive me for not informing you earlier, but our Supreme Sky Sect has obtained a total of two decrees this time. Seeing that Yuan Yang Sect is also a member of the Profound Dao, we have already given the other decree to Fellow Daoist Yang. He and his wife can go to the Extreme Heaven now. "
Elder Liu was startled, he looked at Yang Bi with a questioning look on his face.
The Supreme Sky Sect had always been on good terms with the Southern Flower Sect, but their relationship with the Yuan Yang Sect was very shallow, and it was rare for them to interact with each other. Not only him, even the Nie brothers of the Southern Flower Sect looked over with surprised gazes, obviously not understanding the reason behind this.
Yang Bi stood up with a smile and cupped his hands, "Elder Liu. Fellow Daoists, Fellow Daoist Tong's words are true. "
Elder Liu chuckled, stroked his beard and smiled, "That's good, Daoren is worrying too much."
At this moment, the Shaoqing disciple Xun Huaiying suddenly said, "I only need a talisman. Any more is useless. Elder Liu, you can give it to whoever you want."
Without seeing him move, a talisman flew out. Liu Daoren hurriedly took it and held it in his hand. He immediately perked up and bowed solemnly. "Thank you, Perfected Xun."
Xun Huaiying's face was expressionless as she responded calmly.
Elder Liu lowered his head and thought for a while. He slowly said, "A talisman can protect the two of them when they go into that object. In I's opinion, this talisman should be given to the Daoist of Li Mountain Sect."
Bu Tian Sect, Anatta Sect, Li Mountain Sect, and Ping Du Sect did not obtain the talisman. Two disciples of Anatta Sect died. Ping Du Sect and Bu Tian Pavilion only had one disciple left. Only two from Li Mountain Sect were left. In the Upper Pole's sword duel, one more person meant one more chance of winning. No one said anything when the talisman was given to Li Mountain Sect. Most of them nodded in agreement.
Cao Minrou stood up. Wan Fu bowed and said, "I'm ashamed to accept it."
Elder Liu nodded and smiled.
With the matter of the talisman settled, there was nothing else. After staying on the peak for an hour, everyone went their separate ways.
After Elder Liu personally sent everyone off. He and Ying Ya Daoren stood on the peak together and looked up at the sky.
It was the first quarter of an hour in the morning and the sun had yet to rise. The sky was still dark and the moon and stars could not be seen. Elder Liu gazed at the sky for a long time and suddenly asked, "Junior Martial Brother, do you think our Xuanmen will be able to pass this sword duel?"
Ying Ya Daoren was surprised, "Senior Brother, why do you say that?"
He thought for a while and said, "Senior Brother, let's not talk about Xun, Huo, and Zhou Zhenren. Even Zhang Zhenren's mana is not bad. There's also Yang Zhenren and his wife, Tong Zhenren, and Nie Kun Zhong. Which one of them is weaker than the disciples of the Demonic Sect? In this little brother's opinion, this should be a sure-win situation. "
Elder Liu looked at the gloomy sky and sighed, "I hope so."
At the same time, opposite the river bank, the demonic cloud that hung in the sky for two days descended and covered the peak.
Looking from the outside, one could only see shadows of people, green flames, and black fog covering the mountain. It was dark and gloomy. However, the inside was completely different. The hall was filled with colors and the lights were as bright as day.
The cultivators of the six demonic sects who came for the sword duel were all gathered in this temple to discuss how to deal with Xuanmen.
On the seat, Daoren who wore a brown robe flung his robe and stood up. He stretched out four fingers and said, "In this sword duel, Xuanmen should be careful of four people. Once these four people are gone, the remaining people are nothing to worry about."
An elder immediately said, "Elder Kim, are you talking about Xun Huaiying, Huo Xuan, Zhou Huang, and Zhang Yan?"
Elder Kim laughed and said, "I believe everyone here can see this clearly. There's no need to talk about Xun Huaiying. This person walks on the Path of the Killing Sword in the Shaoqing Three Lineages Sword Legacy. No matter if it's your talisman or Daoist technique, it'll be broken with one slash. Most of the seniors in our six sects who have seen this Killing Sword Technique have already passed away. Therefore, we must keep a close eye on this person. Even if we can't kill him, we must hold him back!"
At the end, his hair stood on end and he slammed the table heavily. Everyone who heard him nodded in agreement.
Feng Haiyang was currently sitting on the first seat on the left. He said solemnly, "Elder Kim is right. Xun Huaiying is indeed a great enemy of our generation. Fortunately, the disciples of our six sects are united and have a way to deal with him."
He turned his head and looked at a cultivator wearing a white robe and a tall hat. He said very seriously, "Junior Brother Yuchi, after the duel, you don't need to care about the others. Just hold that Xun Huaiying back."
Yuchi Yun saw that everyone was looking at him. He took a deep breath and suddenly stood up. He bowed and said solemnly, "I won't let you down."
Elder Kim knocked on the table lightly and said, "Everyone, apart from Xun Huaiying, that Zhou Huang must not be underestimated. This person is the most outstanding disciple of this generation in the Zhou clan. Rumor has it that he has mastered the Spiritual Pivot Great Jade Clear Light, which is ranked second among the 16 techniques of the Yuxiao school. This person has cultivated the Heavenly Universe Realm Tome for more than 400 years and has been in the Yuanying realm for more than 200 years. Based on common sense, he should have at least five divine arts. He's not easy to deal with."
Yuxiao school was located to the south of Dong Hua. Although it was also considered the Dong Hua Mystic Sect, it rarely interacted with the sects in the north. Very few people had fought with Zhou Huang before, so they didn't know much about him. Thus, they could only try to deduce his combat ability from his techniques and cultivation.
After hearing Elder Kim's words, many of the elders of the Devil Sect were shocked. Zhou Huang had actually not stepped into the second tier of the Yuanying realm after more than 200 years. It was obvious that he had spent most of his energy on divine arts.
On the left, a handsome young daoist dressed in a red robe sat at the front. It was Yan Huixin, a disciple of the Jiuling Sect. When he heard this, he thought silently for a moment. Then, he raised his head and said with a smile, "According to the plan, this person should be dealt with by me. I'd like to compare whether this person has more divine arts or the demonic spirits on my banner."
Feng Haiyang nodded and said, "Other than Junior Brother Yan, there's no one else suitable."
Elder Kim chuckled and said, "That Huo Xuan of the Qincang School possesses the Qi of Metal and Fire, and he also has the Nine Great Sun Dragon Sparrow Spears with him. Many of our Devil Sect's techniques are countered by him. Junior Brother Feng, have you come up with a countermeasure?"
Feng Haiyang did not reply. Instead, he turned to look at a female cultivator with an exquisite figure and instructed, "Xu Niangzi, according to the plan that the six of us discussed earlier, you'll be the one to deal with this person. Don't fail."
Xu Niangzi smiled sweetly and said, "Your humble servant understands."
Feng Haiyang nodded slightly. His gaze swept down and said, "There's still one more person. Zhang Yan of the Yaoyin Clan. This person was originally a disciple of the Qincang School and had once attained the First Grade Golden Core. His mana is so dense that no one in the same generation can compare to him. Furthermore, from the previous few moves, I dare to say that he's definitely hiding an extremely powerful technique. If you guys were to face this person, you must be extremely cautious and not be careless."
Xu Niangzi's eyes shone and she suddenly said, "That Zhang Yan killed Yuxiao's disciple Zhou Qingyun and almost fought with Xie Keming. If we could …"
Feng Haiyang immediately interrupted her and said in a deep voice, "If the six of us work together to deal with the enemy, as long as we have the upper hand, we will be able to win. Why should we be distracted by those sneaky tricks? This is putting us at a disadvantage. Xu Niangzi, when you face Huo Xuan, you are also shouldering a heavy responsibility. There's no need to have any other thoughts. "
Xu Niangzi's pretty face turned red and she said in shame, "Senior Brother Feng is right. I will remember your words."
Below the table, Gao Ruowang of the Blood Soul Sect seemed to have made up his mind. He slammed the table and volunteered, "Senior Brother Feng, you and Junior Brother Lu have to deal with the others and can't leave. That leaves me to deal with Zhang Yan. My Blood Soul Sect has long had enmity with him. This is a good opportunity to end it all at once."
The strategy that the six sects of the Demon Sect had decided on this time was not complicated. Gao, Xu, Yan, and Yuchi would come out to fight and try to delay the four most powerful people in the Celestial Sect. At the same time, Feng Haiyang and Lu Muqiu would work together and try to kill all the disciples in the Celestial Sect other than these four people in a very short period of time. Then, they would turn around and work together to attack these four people.
If this strategy succeeded, the Demon Sect would definitely win this sword battle. However, the risk was also very high. The key was whether Feng Haiyang and Lu Muqiu could beat the disciples of the other sects.
As for the disciples of the Demon Sect who tried to delay Xun, Huo, Zhou, and Zhang, as long as one of them lost the opportunity, there was a possibility that they would lose the whole game. It was almost like a gamble.
However, there were only six people from the Demon Sect who were fighting for Jun Yang's essence. They had no choice but to take this risk. Otherwise, they would have no hope of winning.
Before this, there was actually another difficulty, and that was how to find their opponents and move according to the chess game laid out by the six sects of the Demon Sect. This required another method. Regarding this point, the Demon Sect had already decided on a plan.
Their method was to order all the elders of the Demon Sect to block and obstruct the disciples on the road from Chengyuan Gorge to the Extreme Heaven. This way, they could slowly trap the disciples of the Celestial Sect into their trap.
However, this would definitely attract the attention of the Celestial Sect, the Demon Sect, and the guardian elders of the ten sects and six sects. It could be imagined that there would be a fierce and bloody battle at that time.
Feng Haiyang cupped his hands towards the table and said with a solemn expression, "I'll leave it to the elders to go to the Extreme Heaven tomorrow."
