A suicide mission.
As soon as he entered the main hall, Su Fang's expression changed. Sang *% Dance *% Small *% Speak
Why was that?
In the great hall, there were only five advanced Dao Masters, including Dao Master Han Xu. The sect master of the Heavenly Fate Haocang Sect was also in the great hall. No one knew when he had arrived at the Immortal Demon Battlefield.
It wasn't just the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Mandate Bright Firmament Sect. There were five other peak Dao Realm experts at the same level as him. Three of them were peak Dao Realm experts, and Su Fang had never seen them before. They should be the hidden experts of the Heavenly Mandate Bright Firmament Sect.
What shocked Su Fang even more was that the person sitting on the throne was not the sect master of the Heavenly Mandate Hao Cang Sect. Instead, it was an old man who seemed to have one foot in the grave. However, the feeling he gave Su Fang was one of emptiness, vastness, and mystery. It was as if he did not belong to this world.
The old man leaned back in his seat as if he had fallen asleep.
When Su Fang came in, his eyes suddenly opened. Divine light swept over Su Fang, making Su Fang feel as if his entire body was being seen through. Even his fate and future were being spied on.
"He is the master of the Star Herding Peak, the pinnacle existence of the Yue Greater World, Immortal Elder Tian Ji?" Su Fang was incomparably shocked.
Immortal Elder Tianji smiled at Su Fang, then closed his eyes again. Only then did Su Fang's discomfort disappear.
The other experts were also sizing up Su Fang. However, they did not give off the same terrifying feeling that Immortal Old Man Heavenly Fate gave off to Su Fang.
"Su Fang, have a seat."
Heaven's Mandate Haocang Sect's Sect Master said majestically, gesturing for Su Fang to take a seat at the end of the right side.
"All signs indicate that the demons have already made preparations for the final battle. They may attack the immortal dao's defensive line with all their might at any time. As for our side, we've also made preparations for the final battle. "
"The final battle between immortals and devils will take at most a year to a month!"
The other experts in the hall were clearly aware of this news, but they all wore grave expressions when they heard the sect master's words, causing the atmosphere in the hall to become tense and oppressive.
A peak-level Dao Realm expert from another faction asked, "The Demon Clan must have gathered their experts. How is their overall strength?"
"The cultivators of the immortal dao outnumber the demonic army by five times, but the number of demonic cultivators above the dao realm and resurrected powerhouses outnumber the immortal dao by three times. The peak dao realm powerhouses outnumber the immortal dao powerhouses by ten times, but the resurrected powerhouses make up the majority."
None of the immortal dao experts in the hall looked pleased.
Both sides had invested hundreds of millions of cultivators in the Great War of the Immortals and Demons.
It was extremely difficult for the demons to reproduce. Add to that the losses they'd suffered in the last war, and their population was far inferior to the immortal dao's. This was the only advantage the immortal dao had.
However, the deciding factor in a true war wasn't the total number of cultivators on both sides, but the number of experts above the dao realm. This was especially true for peak dao realm experts like the sect master of the Heavenly Mandate Bright Sect.
The demons had ten times more experts than the immortal dao. How could anyone not despair with such a huge gap?
A moment of silence ensued.
The Heavenly Mandate Sect Master said, "This concerns the life and death of the immortal dao world. Only by fighting to the death can we have a sliver of hope. Even if we know we'll lose this war, we must fight to the bitter end. "
"Moreover, it's not as if the immortal dao has no chance of winning. The immortal dao has a deep foundation that far surpasses the demons and resurrected powerhouses. The immortal dao has our sect's first supreme elder, as well as Senior Divination and five other demigods who can surpass the limits of a major world. They're on par with the demons, and there's no lack of sect-guarding artifacts and dao treasures among the immortal dao's factions. That's something the demons are far inferior to. "
The Heavenly Mandate Haocang Sect Master's words eased the crowd's mood.
Su Fang's heart trembled. "The major world has five demigod powerhouses who surpass the peak of the immortal dao."
"Senior Divination has repeatedly divined the workings of the heavens and deduced that the immortal dao will have a great opportunity to turn things around."
Everyone's spirits were roused as they looked at Immortal Elder Divination.
"What are you looking at me for? I'm not a god. Although I've divined that the immortal dao will have a chance to turn things around, I can't deduce the specifics. "Immortal Elder Divination's eyes remained closed.
The sect master continued, "Although there's a chance to reverse the situation, we still need to take the initiative to find it. After repeated discussions with several powerhouses, we've come to the conclusion that the immortal dao will have to send out a surprise army to reverse the situation. "
"A surprise army?"
The sect master declared. "I've decided to send out a surprise army to bypass the demons' defensive line and launch a sneak attack from the rear when the battle erupts. A pincer attack from the front and rear will throw the demons into chaos. This is the only way for the immortal dao to win. It's also the opportunity that Senior Divination has divined."
Some of the peak powerhouses present fell silent.
A surprise army was simply a suicide squad. Even if they managed to reverse the situation, the leader and the entire squad would have a slim chance of survival. No, there was no chance of survival.
"The peak powerhouses of the immortal dao will have to face the demons head-on. Moreover, sending them out will easily attract the demons' attention and force them to take precautions in advance. That way, they won't be able to take the enemy by surprise."
"Additionally, the leader of this surprise army will need not only great strength, but also the courage to face death with equanimity and great charisma."
The Heavenly Mandate Haocang Sect Master added.
Su Fang's brows furrowed. He'd already guessed the reason for calling him here.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
Everyone's eyes fell on Su Fang.
Who else but Su Fang was qualified to lead the surprise army?
Just as expected!
The sect master continued, "This battle concerns the life and death of the Immortal Dao. As the leader of the Immortal Dao, our Heavenly Mandate Bright Firmament Sect should naturally disregard the sect's losses and sacrifice ourselves."
"Daoist Dao Hengtian is the next leader of the Heavenly Fate Bright Sky Sect. He's the best candidate to lead this surprise attack on the demons' rear. However, a few months ago, a grand elder of our sect, Dao Hengtian's master, met with an accident during cultivation and was gravely injured. Dao Hengtian was urgently summoned back to the sect. "
"After much consideration, the only candidate to lead this surprise army is another Daoist of our sect … Su Fang!"
"Su Fang, you're not only a Daoist of the Heavenly Fate Bright Sky Sect, but also a hero of the immortal dao. You're strong enough to fight against high-level dao realm experts. If you lead this surprise army, we'll definitely succeed in one fell swoop. Su Fang, you won't let down the sect and the immortal dao world, right? "
The Heavenly Fate Bright Sky Sect's leader's eyes shone brightly as he stared at Su Fang, full of trust and anticipation.
Anger and resentment surged uncontrollably from the bottom of Su Fang's heart.
Dao Hengtian's master had met with an accident at a time like this. How could there be such a coincidence in the world?
Su Fang definitely had nothing to do with Dao Hengtian. He must've been kept in the dark.
Su Fang wasn't afraid of any danger. Any cultivator was duty-bound to die in a life-and-death battle against the demons.
However, the sect's actions chilled Su Fang to the core.
At the same time, Su Fang felt sorrow for the entire immortal dao. Even now, the Heavenly Fate Bright Sky Sect was still scheming against their own disciples.
Su Fang's eyes were cold. "The sect has been so heartless to me. How can I be loyal to the sect? How can its disciples and experts feel a sense of belonging to such a sect? The Heavenly Fate Bright Sky Sect will be destroyed sooner or later, and the entire immortal dao world will be implicated. "
The great hall was silent.
Dao Sovereign Han Xu's lips quivered, but he didn't say anything in the end. He only sighed ruefully in his heart.
"Although Su Fang defeated the demons' holy son, Ming Yan, in the competition, he also suppressed Dao Hengtian, the sect's chosen Daoist. He's put the sect in a difficult position. Moreover, Su Fang killed Mo Wutian and injured He Zun. This has violated the sect's greatest taboo. And that's only one of the reasons.
"When Su Fang accepted the Heavenly Fate Bright Sky Sect's baptism, he caused the Heavenly Fate Bright Sky Sect to sever its connection with the God Realm, endangering the sect's foundation. Even if this matter has nothing to do with Su Fang, how can the sect not take its anger out on him? "
"Su Fang being hailed as the Heavenly Fate Hero is not the sect's wish. He killed the demons' young lord, Chi Ming, and angered the master of the demons. He also completely destroyed the sect's desire to compromise with the demons. "
"Su Fang's current reputation is like that of a spiritual leader of the immortal dao world. Almost all of the middle and lower level cultivators respond to his call. No one doesn't worship him. Even the sect master doesn't have such prestige. This is an even greater violation of the sect master's greatest taboo."
"How can the sect not want to get rid of him after committing so many taboo crimes? The sect master's decision is clearly to use him as cannon fodder, and use the demons to eliminate him. "
"Sigh … in the face of destruction, the sect is still so jealous. After this battle, even if it is lucky enough to preserve its power, how long can it last? If Su Fang dies in the hands of the demons, it may not be a bad thing. It's much better than dying in the hands of the sect's schemes. "
Dao Master Han Xu's thoughts were the true intentions of the Heavenly Fate Bright Sky Sect's sect master.
A peak-level Dao Master from another sect broke the silence. "Su Fang is the number one genius of the great world, and he is also hailed as the Heavenly Fate Hero by the immortal dao. His killing of Chi Ming's young lord made Su Fang's reputation unparalleled in the immortal dao world, and he is the spiritual leader of the immortal dao. If he leads a surprise attack on the demons' army, it will be a heavy blow to the immortal dao if he dies. This is extremely inappropriate, please reconsider. "
The Heavenly Fate Bright Sky Sect's sect master said imposingly, "The immortal dao world has reached the final moment of life and death. There is no way out. Which immortal dao cultivator dares to cherish his life? Once we lose, we will be destroyed. Where will the morale come from? At this moment, if the Heavenly Fate Bright Sky Sect doesn't step forward, who else can? "
The righteous voice of the Heavenly Fate Bright Sky Sect's sect master reverberated in the great hall. Everyone fell silent and looked at Su Fang, waiting for his reply.
It was unknown when Immortal Elder Tian Ji had opened his eyes. He stared at Su Fang with his spirited eyes, seemingly interested in Su Fang.
