The altar beneath Zhou Ting's feet was called the Upright Sun Altar, and it had a total of six levels. Every single level was divided into six corners, and a Magic Treasure was placed on every corner to suppress it. There was a total of 36 Magic Treasures. A single Magic Treasure wasn't very formidable, but when they were combined together, they complemented each other's strengths, and when they were combined together, they complemented each other's strengths.
Previously, because the Jadesky Sect wasn't sure where the Bottom Spirit Point would be, they'd calculated the direction of the earth veins and found fourteen possible locations. They'd expended an enormous amount of precious materials to build such altars on all of them.
After the Spirit Cave appeared, there was only one altar to suppress the entrance of the cave, so he moved the carriage over. As long as this place was not lost, their side would be in an invincible position, so he was not worried.
He comforted Zhou Lian with a few words, refused the latter's request, and ordered him to regulate his breathing.
The Zhou disciples who cultivated Dharmakaya were all people who could become Grotto-Heaven in the future, and were highly valued by the clan. Before coming out, Zhou Yong had repeatedly reminded him to be careful. Just Now, one person had unexpectedly died, and it was already a big headache for him. He did not know how to explain when he returned. If another person died, he would not be able to explain to the sect, so he would rather not move than send him out to take risks.
Just Now, Zhou Lian had wanted to redeem himself with meritorious service, but no matter what he said, it was not allowed, so he had no choice but to retreat.
In the next two hours, there were continuous reports and messenger disciples landing on the altar.
"Senior Brother Zhou, the two altars of Guanhe and Yin River have been destroyed, and the disciples guarding the altars are all dead. Can we take them back?"
"Reporting to Altar Master, the Little Fragrant Mountain altar is surrounded, and Elder Xie Xiao's fate is unknown. Altar Master, please send people to rescue him."
"North of An Ling Mountain is shrouded in a thick fog, and it is impossible to enter or exit. It seems to be the work of the Yuan Shen Sect."
"Gu Mo Mountain is lost …"
If one did not look at the big picture. Looking at the current situation, the formation plate that the Yuxiao school had painstakingly built for a long time seemed to be full of holes under the fierce attack of the Devil Sect, and was in danger of collapsing at any time. However, Zhou Ting only said one word, and did not do anything to respond.
The elders below could not sit still, and one of them came up and said, "Spiritual Master Zhou. So many altars are being attacked. Why are you sitting there and not doing anything? "
Zhou Ting said, "Elder Wu, don't worry. I know what I'm doing."
Elder Wu still wanted to say something, but Zhou Ting raised his hand to stop him. Zhou Ting smiled and said, "Don't worry, Elder Wu. If anything goes wrong and the sect blames me, I will take full responsibility. It has nothing to do with you."
Wu looked at him. Seeing the confident look on the other party's face, Zhang Xuan nodded and sat back down.
Zhou Ting's eyes swept across the crowd and saw the fear on the faces of the cultivators on the altar. He snorted coldly to himself, "They are all a bunch of short-sighted people. How can they see through my grand plan?"
Last time, during the battle of the Devil's Cave. In order to fool people, the Devil Sect had created five devil caves. Because the Celestial Sect of Wonders could not figure out whether it was real or fake, they could only wait for it to appear before making a move. The situation was very passive.
But today, it was different. There was only one Devil's Cave in the continent. The Celestial Sect of Wonders knew where it was located, so they had long set up a spell altar and forbidden formation in the surroundings. By sealing off the underground tunnel, it could be said that the offensive and defensive positions had been reversed.
Comparing the strength of the two sides, it was obvious that the Devil Sect was at a disadvantage in this head-on battle.
Looking at the general situation, before the battle for the Spirit Cave had even begun, they had already lost more than half.
That was why Zhou Ting thought. Even if they won this battle, the sect would think that it was only right and proper. It would not be able to show off their skills.
However, if they could use this opportunity to heavily injure the enemy or even kill a few of the Devil Sect's talented cultivators, they would be able to make the sect look at them in a new light.
Previously, when he said that there were arrangements behind the Pan Jun Gorge, it was not completely a lie. There were indeed many arrangements. His plan was to lure the Devil Sect's cultivators into the hinterland and then block their path of retreat before surrounding and killing them.
Even though many of the sect's cultivators had died, the outer spell altars were mostly guarded by the disciples of the Wu family and some of the smaller clans. There were not many casualties among the Zhou family's disciples.
He estimated that in another hour, the Devil Sect would be here. When that time came, he could make his move.
At this time, a few more flying letters came. He was slightly refreshed. When he took a look, he was a little surprised and thought to himself, "This person actually slowed down his attack. Could it be that he saw through my plan?"
However, after thinking about it again, he shook his head. Even if the other party really saw through something, he was not afraid. Unless the Devil Sect completely gave up on fighting for the Devil's Cave, they had no choice but to come.
As for whether it was a plan to advance slowly, it was even more impossible. One must know that the Celestial Sect of Wonders had been accumulating for ten thousand years. The advantage they had was not something that the Devil Sect could compare to. They might be able to gain the upper hand in a short period of time, but the longer they dragged on, the more disadvantageous the situation would be for them. It was impossible for the person in the Devil Sect to not have thought of this. Then what was their true intention?
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a shout. He looked to the side and saw a blurry figure flashing past outside the spell altar. It seemed that the person saw that the defense here was tight and did not dare to come over, so he turned around and left. One of the elders did not wait for orders and chased after the person.
Zhou Ting frowned. He saw that the person who left was a cultivator from his sect called Zhou Ying. Afraid that something might have happened to him, he pointed at the two people in front of him and said, "The two of you go out and support him. If you encounter any traces of the enemy, fight if you can. If you can't, quickly retreat. Don't get entangled with them."
The two cultivators immediately took the order and chased after the person.
In just the time it took to say a few words, Zhou Ying had already chased for more than ten miles. The speed of the person who was escaping was not very fast. The more he chased, the closer he got. Not long after, the distance between them was reduced to less than a thousand feet. Thus, he no longer stood on ceremony. He silently took out his magic treasure and attacked the person's back.
Just as the magic treasure was about to hit, the person's figure suddenly flickered and disappeared without a trace. This time, he hit empty air.
Zhou Ying was startled and revealed a vigilant look. He withdrew the magic treasure and carefully circled around the surroundings, but he could not find the person. He cursed under his breath and was about to turn around and go back. But at this time, he suddenly felt a cold wind on his body, and he could not help but shiver.
If it was any other time, he would definitely feel that something was wrong with his body. But at this time, he did not know why. He only felt a little dizzy and extremely tired. He did not want to think about anything and wanted nothing more than to fall asleep.
Suddenly, two rays of light landed in front of him. They were the two cultivators who came under Zhou Ting's order. One of them looked at him and asked, "Senior Martial Brother Zhou Ying, where did that person go?"
Zhou Ying shook his head and said, "He disappeared after arriving here. I don't know where he went to hide."
That person smiled and said, "He must have seen Senior Brother Zhou Ying's high cultivation and ran away in fear."
The other person pondered and said, "The people of the Devil Sect are mostly people who hide their heads and show their tails. This place is so close to my altar, so it's not surprising that he did not dare to fight."
The first person said, "Senior Brother is right. Senior Brother Zhou Ying, since we can't find this person, it's better for us to go back as soon as possible, lest the Altar Master worry."
At this time, Zhou Ying felt a sense of exhaustion all over his body. He had long lost the desire to fight the Devil Sect cultivators, so he nodded and said, "I'll go back with you two Junior Brothers."
The three of them turned back and returned to the altar. Just as they were about to go in, a hanging bell above them suddenly shook. Then, there were three loud dang dang dang sounds. Zhou Ying's body sank as if he was pressed down by a large rock, and he could not move for a moment. Then, a streak of starlight spread out from the altar and pushed him out.
Sensing the movement here, the elders on the platform immediately reacted. Someone said in shock, "It's the Spiritual Fixation Bell, a devil has infiltrated this place!"
After Zhou Ying was forced away by the altar's restriction, his body suddenly shook and he fell to the ground. Then, a blurry figure flew out from his body and went outside. It suddenly split into two and pounced on the two elders who were close by. The two of them ignored the protective light on their bodies and disappeared into their bodies.
At this moment, Zhou Ting was riding a ray of light and just happened to see this scene. He shouted, "Calm your mind!"
He quickly rushed in front of one of them and reached out his hand to pat the top of his head. Once the mana entered his body, it immediately turned into a torrential stream of light and rushed down. The true devil immediately felt it was difficult to endure. It couldn't stay in this person's body and was actually forced out. As if it was afraid of Zhou Ting, it turned around and disappeared into thin air.
However, the other person was not so lucky. Before he could react, he saw a sword piercing down from above, turning into a golden light that went straight into the middle of his eyebrows. He immediately died, then his body turned into a raging golden flame and was instantly burned to ashes. After a breath or two, an indistinct figure appeared on the ashes and also disappeared with a flash.
Seeing this, an elder of the Zhou clan on the side was shocked and angry at the same time. He shouted, "Elder Wu, what are you doing?"
Elder Wu raised his hand and called back the sword. He said in a deep voice, "The spiritual bell is a warning. It's obvious that this person has been possessed by a devil. The Devil Sect has many tricks and it's difficult to guard against them. In order to not ruin the overall situation, I have to kill him."
The elder said angrily, "Even so, he should be handled by Senior Brother Zhou. How can it be your turn to do it?"
Zhou Ting waved his sleeve and said, "There's no need to say more. Just Now, the situation is urgent. There's no time to think too much. Elder Wu also had no other choice. He's not at fault."
At this moment, Zhou Lian came over and transmitted his voice to Zhou Ting, "Senior Brother, this evil devil seems to be the devil that Just Now harmed Senior Brother Zhou Yan."
Zhou Ting's expression turned serious. To be able to kill a third degree cultivator in an instant, this devil was obviously powerful. Moreover, Just Now, under the burning star fire, it wasn't the least bit damaged. Could it really be the legendary true devil? Luckily, Just Now, there was a warning and it hadn't entered the inner room. Otherwise, who knew what kind of trouble it would cause.
He was afraid of causing panic, so he didn't dare to voice his opinion. He looked left and right and said, "No one is allowed to leave without my permission."
At this moment, one of the elders on the altar suddenly felt that something was amiss. He looked up and saw that outside the altar, there was a demonic figure standing in the sky. Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be exactly the same as him, and it was smiling at him. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he shouted, "Evil demon!"
Just as he was about to attack, he felt dizzy and fell backwards. At this moment, on the stage, there were more than ten people who made eye contact with the demonic figure. They were all dazed and fell to the ground one by one.
