"There are people from the Xuan Tianyun Palace among the people surrounding the mountain this time." Lu Chuan said.
Li Mu nodded and said, "It doesn't matter. We will know whether he is an enemy or a friend. Let him go to the mountain gate to meet us. Do we need to be afraid of him?"
Lu Chuan nodded and said, "Okay."
He took out a token and injected Qi into it. A stream of light flew out and fell into the invisible tactical deployment of Tiandao Mountain. Suddenly, layers of air rippled in front of the mountain gate.
Many martial arts practitioners gathered outside Tiandao Mountain saw a scene that deeply shocked them at this moment. The invisible translucent airwaves, like a water curtain hanging down from the sky, protected the entire mountain gate of Tiandao Sect. Such a spectacular scene was just like the legendary fairyland, which was stunning.
The Wind Cloud Continent had never seen such an incredible scene.
It was just like the legendary means of immortals.
Although there had been a few martial arts experts who had been trapped in the protective formation of the Tiandao Sect and died mysteriously, there were some sects in the Fengyun Continent that also knew of such formations. It was similar to the art of Qimen Dun Jia, which could deceive the eyes. Together with some special items and tools, it could be used to set up a formation that could trap people. However, where had they seen such a huge formation that was thousands of meters tall that covered the sky?
"Li Mu is indeed a demon from outer space. Otherwise, how could he have such means?"
Tian Jue Shitai snorted.
"Brother Nie, please. I hope you can persuade Li Mu to surrender. Maybe we can spare his life." A burly man standing on a bronze chariot in black iron armor said in a low voice.
He was the first Divine General of the Holy Clan in the Western Poison Region and also an expert who had entered the Eleventh Realm many years ago.
Countless eyes fell on Nie Renlong.
Nie Renlong nodded and said, "I'll try my best."
On the transparent water curtain in the distance, an arched transparent door slowly opened. Shen Jia, the Thunder Sword Devil, the proud disciple of Li Zhiyuan, the Heavenly Asura, stood in front of the transparent door and said in a clear voice, "Senior Nie, please."
Nie Renlong turned into a stream of light and flew into the transparent arch.
Someone in the camp of the five Holy Clans wanted to take the opportunity to rush in.
The first Divine General of the Western Poison Region raised his spear and said, "Are we going to die? Let's wait for Master Nie to find out. "
…
"Little friend, the world is unpredictable. I didn't expect that we would meet under such circumstances."
Nie Renlong stood in the main hall and looked at the back of Li Mu, who was as handsome as jade. He looked a little embarrassed and sighed.
Li Mu turned around, smiled, and said, "The world is like a tide, and people are like water. This is Jianghu. Brother Nie, are you here to persuade me to surrender?"
Nie Renlong smiled embarrassedly and said, "My friend, you are a dragon among men. Those ridiculous rumors are only spread by some people to target you. However, why do you have to go against the five Great Divine Sects? Since the ancient times, no one and no force has ever won against the six Great Divine Sects. Even though the Tiandao Sect has many geniuses, it is still outnumbered. Brother Li is a genius and wants to compete with the heavens, but the foundation of the Tiandao Sect …" Nie Renlong smiled embarrassedly and said, "My friend, you are a dragon among men.
Before he finished, Lu Chuan interrupted him, "Tiandao Sect will live and die with Junior Brother Li."
Li Mu smiled and did not say anything.
Most of the time, Lu Chuan was a good-tempered, good-natured, and charismatic person. However, when it came to matters related to Li Zhiyuan, he would become particularly tough. A dragon had a reverse scale, and if it was touched, it would be enraged. Li Zhiyuan should be Lu Chuan's reverse scale.
Nie Renlong's face became even more embarrassed. He said, "Wouldn't it be better if we can bury the hatchet?"
Li Mu smiled and asked, "Then, Brother Nie, do you think we can bury the hatchet?"
Under Li Mu's gaze, Nie Renlong did not know what to say.
In the past, Li Zhiyuan saved him. These years, in order to protect the reputation of the Xuantian Cloud Palace, he announced to the public that he and Li Zhiyuan fought to a draw. This was a bit unkind, and it was indeed not appropriate to say such words on behalf of the five Great Divine Sects. Moreover, he also knew that with the methods of the Great Divine Sects, if Li Zhiyuan really surrendered and surrendered, his future would be very miserable.
"Those rumors are just rumors. If we can find a way to clarify them …" Nie Renlong tried hard to say.
Li Mu smiled again and said, "Those words were all said by me."
Nie Renlong said, "That's not the point …"
Li Mu interrupted him again and said, "I do come from outer space."
Nie Renlong was stunned.
Li Mu said, "But if you come from outer space, must you be a devil?"
Nie Renlong did not say anything.
Li Mu said, "Brother Nie, do you have anything else to say?"
Nie Renlong gave a wry smile and finally let out a long sigh. He said, "I know I can't persuade you. Well, I won't mention this topic again, lest I make a fool of myself. Today, I came here with only one in ten thousand hope. As one of the heads of the five Holy Sects, I have to come. Ha, I hope you don't blame me."
Li Mu smiled and said, "How can I? Haha, Brother Nie, you are a distinguished guest of our Tiandao Sect this time. "In other words, he was not sure if he would come next time.
At this time, a disciple of the Tiandao Sect came in with tea.
Li Mu said, "Brother Nie, have a taste of the tea I grew in Small Bamboo Peak. It's a new kind that can't be found in other places. I call it 'Maojian'. The tea is mellow, sweet at first, then bitter, and then sweet again, just like in Jianghu."
Nie Renlong said, "Since I came here as a lobbyist for the five Holy Sects, how can I drink your tea? It's too shameful."
Lu Chuan said indifferently, "Don't worry. There's no poison in our tea."
Nie Renlong was stunned and then smiled bitterly. "That's not what I meant. In that case …" He walked up, picked up the cup, and drank up the tea. Then, he said, "My friend, I'm really ashamed to face you. But the five Holy Sects have always been in the same boat. One's glory is glory, and one's loss is our loss. Even if I don't want to be your enemy, I have to come to Tiandao Sect. I know I don't have the face to see you. If the five Holy Sects attack Tiandao Sect, I will protect you even at the cost of my life."
His words were powerful and resounding, and he was extremely unyielding.
Lu Chuan couldn't help but feel gratified.
Things in Jianghu had always been difficult to distinguish between right and wrong. The saying, "When in Jianghu, one has no choice but to do as he pleases" was never just a literal saying. It was the true golden advice that only those who had been in Jianghu could deeply understand.
As a Jianghu man, Lu Chuan naturally understood the weight and helplessness contained in those words.
At that moment, his impression of Nie Renlong suddenly changed.
After all … they were all Jianghu men.
"Haha, good. I'll remember your words," Li Mu said with a smile. Li Mu smiled and said, "If that's the case, I won't take up any more of your time. Xiao Jia, help me and the Sect Leader see our guests out."
…
Nie Renlong's persuasion undoubtedly ended in failure.
Back at the base of the mountain, in the camp of the five alliances, he said that he was too ashamed to see anyone. He led the masters of the Xuantian Palace to retreat five kilometers, set up camp, and refused to come out.
"Humph, I'm afraid he's not going to fight because he's close to Li Mu."
Many people criticized him.
But Nie Renlong still stayed in seclusion.
After the Great Five Alliance's lobbying failed, they finally launched an attack on the Tiandao Sect. It was an all-out attack that seemed to blot out the sky and cover the earth. The scene of hundreds of thousands of martial arts experts attacking at the same time was probably something that could only be seen in the Holy War of Good and Evil several hundred years ago.
In the previous Holy War, a single attack had caused the Eastern Sect, which claimed to be the number one Divine Sect in the world, to suffer heavy losses. The alliance of the five Divine Sects could be said to have gained the upper hand and completely crushed the Eastern Sect. However, this time, the methods that they were used to using, which had been tried every time, had hit a wall. No attack could threaten a single blade of grass or a single tree inside the Tiandao Sect. It was completely a waste of effort, like throwing flirtatious glances at the blind.
That was because Tiandao Sect's transparent ripple formation blocked all long-range attacks.
As for close combat … Once the experts of the five Divine Sects charged into the formation, they would lose their five senses and wander around like houseflies. Some would die from killing each other, while others would be separated. Then, the Tiandao Sect would gather their superior forces and annihilate them.
On the first day, the alliance of the five Divine Sects lost more than five thousand people. Among them were two level-nine masters, twenty level-eight masters, and hundreds of level-six and level-seven masters.
On the contrary, Tiandao Sect did not lose a single person.
The formation contained the power of heaven and stood firm.
When the battle stopped, the leaders of the five Divine Sects all turned green.
Although they had expected that Tiandao Sect and Li Zhiyuan would be difficult to deal with, they did not expect it to be to this extent.
Many martial arts masters who had been shouting fiercely before the battle all lowered their heads and gritted their teeth in anger.
"Grind, inch by inch. I don't believe that this formation can last forever." The number one War God of the Western Poison Region roared.
This seemed to be the stupidest but best method for the alliance of the five Divine Sects, who had the advantage in numbers.
In the following month, the battle did not stop.
Hundreds of thousands of martial arts experts from the thousands of sects of the Fengyun Continent took turns to attack the formation, depleting the Tiandao Sect's strength. However, they were only able to push the formation back less than ten meters. It was like trying to put out a burning cart of firewood with a cup of water, while the alliance had lost more than thirty thousand experts.
This was an unbearable loss.
It was also a disgrace.
The news spread across the continent, and all the people who had been paying attention were shocked.
Another month passed. The alliance of the five Divine Sects began to focus on attacking different parts of the formation, as if there was an expert guiding them from behind. They began to rapidly compress the formation of Tiandao Sect.
Half a year passed.
The formation of Tiandao Sect was compressed to the bottom of the main peak.
The masters of the alliance were extremely excited. They finally saw the light.
Everyone firmly believed that as long as they could break through the tactical deployment of the Tiandao Sect, they would be able to swarm up and kill everyone, including the Heavenly Asura Li Zhiyuan, on the Tiandao Peak.
