Half a month later, Wang Changsheng returned to the Devil Path's headquarters in Purple Flame Province and told Mu Yunxuan and the others the reason for the Righteous Path's retreat.
"So the Righteous Path's Daoists are planning to preserve their strength and fight us to the death in West Chu. It seems that Thousand Buddha Temple's Ku Sang has stepped in. Otherwise, it would be impossible for so many Righteous Path sects to unite and move to West Chu." Mu Yunxuan slowly analyzed.
"Then should we send people to ambush them? Are we going to let them leave just like that? "Liu Xu asked with a frown.
"What we want is territory, not extermination. If we push them too far, we won't get any benefits. Since the Righteous Path sects have agreed to retreat to West Chu, we shouldn't delay. Immediately send people to invade Northern Yan and take it as soon as possible, then invade the next country. This is a great opportunity for us to expand our territory, we can't let it go." Mu Yunxuan's expression was somewhat excited.
"That's right. Since the Righteous Path sects have agreed to retreat to West Chu, there will definitely be a lot of empty territory. The sooner we send troops, the more territory we can occupy." Chen Hai nodded in agreement.
Regarding this, Huang Yan, Zhang Xi, Li Yunfei, and the others had no objections.
"Should we inform the Heavenly Ghost Sect and the other Fellow Daoists who are invading? After all, we agreed to invade their country together. We can't hide this news for long. If they find out that we've been hiding it from them, it will be difficult to explain! "Huang Yan said with some worry.
"If we tell them, they will also increase their offensive and fight for territory with us. Isn't that the same as giving up a lot of territory?" Liu Xu raised her eyebrows and said with some dissatisfaction.
Chen Hai shook his head and said, "But even if we don't tell them, they should be aware. The Righteous Path's retreat to West Chu isn't a big secret and can't be hidden from many people. We shouldn't have a grudge because of this. Otherwise, if the Righteous Path sects unite, they may have a chance to take back their original territory. The gains won't make up for the losses."
"How about this! We'll send a few slower Core Formation cultivators to inform the Heavenly Ghost Sect and the other Devil Path sects. This way, we will have time to occupy more territory and the other Devil Path sects won't have anything to say. "Wang Changsheng pondered for a moment and suggested.
"That's right, Brother Wang's words is reasonable. Let's do that." Huang Yan nodded in agreement.
"I also agree."
"I agree too."
Hearing this, Liu Xu and the others all expressed their agreement.
"Then let's do that! But this way, the rear will be even more empty. Son-in-law, hurry back to the rear and guard it. Don't let anything go wrong. "Mu Yunxuan warned.
Wang Changsheng nodded and patted the Spirit Beast Pouch at his waist. A Bloodthirsty Spirit Bat flew out and stopped in front of him.
He leaped onto the back of the Bloodthirsty Spirit Bat. The Bloodthirsty Spirit Bat spread its wings and flew out of the palace with Wang Changsheng on its back. It soared into the sky and soon disappeared into the horizon.
Not long after Wang Changsheng left, Mu Yunxuan and the others sent troops to invade Northern Yan. They were only met with sporadic resistance, and they occupied Northern Yan in two months. After leaving some people to guard it, they continued to invade the next country.
Because the Righteous Dao sects had agreed to retreat to West Chu, the allied forces led by the Joyful Union Sect were unstoppable. In less than a year, they had conquered six countries.
The territories they conquered required a large number of people to guard. In order to continue invading other countries, they couldn't leave too many people behind. They could only constantly send more people from the rear. The resources transferred to the front were also increasing. Wang Changsheng became a hands-off shopkeeper and threw all the work to Han Li. He would only step in if Han Li couldn't solve a problem.
After conquering a large number of territories, Wang Changsheng sent people to search for rare treasures. He either used Dharma treasures or elixir pills to exchange or forced them. Due to Wang Changsheng's status and strength, the local cultivators had no choice but to give in. However, they were not stupid. They started to recruit people and expand their forces. The Joyful Union Sect and other sects also opened their doors and recruited many low-level cultivators. These low-level cultivators were sent to the front lines to fight against the Righteous Dao cultivators within three months.
At the same time, when the other demonic sects learned that the righteous sects had agreed to retreat to West Chu, they increased their offensive and captured many countries in a short period of time. Of course, the demonic sects were not harmonious. Sometimes, in order to compete for territory, they would fight, but this was restrained between the lower level disciples.
After some wrangling and mediation, they finally stopped fighting.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Righteous Dao sects all moved to West Chu. On the Cloud Dream Grassland at the border of West Chu, they built a huge city named 'Demon-Killing City' to defend against the Devil Dao cultivators.
The Devil Dao alliance army was busy fighting for territory. It was already two years later when they joined forces at the Cloud Dream Grassland. The Demon-Killing City was already impregnable.
The Devil Dao alliance army also built a huge city named 'Dangxian City' on the Cloud Dream Grassland to defend against the Righteous Dao cultivators.
At this time, close to sixty percent of Dong Yu was under the Devil Dao's rule.
The Devil Dao alliance army had a total of forty-two sects while the Righteous Dao alliance had sixty-three sects. This did not include the cultivation clans.
The Righteous Dao had long spread the news that Master Ku Sang of the Thousand Buddha Temple had become the Alliance Leader of the Righteous Dao alliance army. He was leading many sects to defend against the Devil Dao alliance army led by Mu Yunxuan.
Because the battlefront was too long, it was very inconvenient to send reinforcements and send supplies. The Devil Dao cultivators built a city named 'Yongan City' in the mountains at the northern foot of the mountain five hundred thousand miles away from the Dangxian City. The reinforcements and supplies sent from the rear were first sent to Yongan City and then from there to the front line.
Because of the large amount of supplies, Yongan City was highly valued by the Devil Dao alliance army. Besides Wang Changsheng, there were three Yuanying Early Stage and one Yuanying Middle Stage cultivator guarding the city. They also set up a powerful protective array formation and had a large number of cultivators patrolling day and night to ensure that nothing went wrong.
In the center of Yongan City, there was a hexagonal pavilion that occupied an extremely large area. Around the pavilion, there were hundreds of cultivators patrolling day and night. The supplies that were sent from the rear were stored in the hexagonal pavilion.
The hexagonal pavilion was set up with layers of restrictions. Apart from a few Core Formation Realm cultivators and five Yuanying cultivators, no one else was allowed to enter the hexagonal pavilion.
In a spacious secret room over ten feet below the hexagonal pavilion, Wang Changsheng's eyes were closed and his palms were clasped together. His body was suffused with a golden light as if he was cultivating.
After a while, the golden light on Wang Changsheng's body dissipated. He opened his eyes and a trace of light quickly flashed through them.
"No wonder people say that Buddhist cultivation methods are extremely slow. After cultivating for two years, I haven't made much progress. If I want to cultivate the fourth layer of the 《Vajra Subduing Devil Arts》, I won't be able to cultivate it without several dozen years." Wang Changsheng muttered to himself.
Ever since he was sent to Yongan City by Mu Yunxuan, Wang Changsheng had almost never stepped out of the stone room. He had always been cultivating the 《Vajra Subduing Devil Arts》. If he could cultivate the fourth layer of the 《Vajra Subduing Devil Arts》, his body would become even more powerful.
A streak of fiery light flew in from a small hole in the stone wall, stopping in front of Immortal Wang.
Wang Changsheng opened his mouth and spat out a cloud of black gas. When the black gas hit the flame, Han Li's voice suddenly sounded.
"Master, disciple recently found two of the things you were looking for."
Wang Changsheng's face lit up with joy. He shook his sleeve and the stone door opened. Han Li walked in with two wooden boxes in his hands. His expression was extremely respectful.
"Master, this is the Crimson Silk Jade and the Exquisite Jade. Please take a look." As Han Li spoke, he opened the two wooden boxes.
A red crystal and a yellow crystal appeared in front of Wang Changsheng. The surface of the crystal was constantly flowing with spirit light.
"Not bad. This is Master's reward for you. Continue to help Master gather materials. Master will not treat you unfairly." Immortal Wang happily accepted the two pieces of spirit jade and tossed a porcelain bottle to Han Li with an amiable expression.
Han Li received the porcelain bottle and said with joy, "Yes, disciple understands. If Master doesn't have any other orders, disciple will take his leave."
Wang Changsheng nodded and signaled for Han Li to leave.
After Han Li left, the stone door automatically closed.
