Kong Wen clasped his hands together and chanted, "Monks should be merciful. May the Ming Dynasty see the situation clearly and surrender as soon as possible to prevent people from being plunged into misery and suffering. Amitabha."
Apart from a few higher-ups, the rest of the disciples of the six major sects were all excited. To them, subduing evil was a good opportunity to make a name for themselves. Naturally, they were the most excited.
The world was bustling with activity, and everyone came and went for benefits.
The battle between the six major sects and the Ming Dynasty was actually a battle for benefits and status in the Jianghu. It wasn't just a matter of a year or two.
When Yang Dingtian was still alive, he suppressed the righteous sects until they couldn't raise their heads. Naturally, the righteous sects had hatred in their hearts. Now that the Ming Dynasty was in decline, the righteous sects wouldn't let go of this opportunity. When the time came, the benefits they would obtain would be immeasurable.
While Master Miejue and the others were discussing, the disciples of the six major sects had already broken through the obstacles like a hot knife through butter. Although the losses weren't small, fortunately, they had enough people and were still able to suppress the Ming Dynasty.
Finally, the disciples of the six major sects fought their way out and broke through the obstacles. They broke through the layers of the Ming Dynasty's ambushes and arrived at the final obstacle, which was the One-Line Gorge that was easy to defend but hard to attack.
The seven peaks and thirteen peaks stood tall and majestic. It was extremely dangerous.
The only way to reach the Bright Peak was this deep gorge in front of them. On both sides of the gorge were steep cliffs. On these cliffs, it was unknown how many traps the Ming Dynasty had set up.
Just this passage alone was easy to defend and hard to attack. If they wanted to pass through here, there was no other way but to attack. Even if they managed to reach the Bright Peak, the six major sects would definitely suffer heavy casualties.
The higher-ups of the various sects looked at each other and couldn't make up their minds. Along the way, they had been discussing how to pass through here and reduce their losses to the minimum. Now, it seemed like the only way was to attack.
Mu Qingxiao followed behind the group and didn't express her opinion. Those who deserved to die would die, and those who deserved to be injured would be injured. Anyway, it was fine as long as they didn't hinder her. At the same time, she was thinking about the next plan in her heart.
At this moment, Nun Miejue's gaze landed on Grandmaster Kong Wen. She said, "Grandmaster Kong Wen, you're the overall leader of this siege on Brightness Peak. What brilliant plan do you have?"
"Amitabha. Abbess, you're being too serious. This is the last obstacle to the Brightness Summit. It's a natural stronghold. I don't have any good ideas either. Why don't you make the decision?"
None of the upper echelons of the Six Major Sects were fools, and Kong Wen was even less so. He knew very well that if he were to make the decision, he would suffer heavy losses when the time came. He would definitely become the subject of ridicule.
During the gathering, the distribution of benefits would definitely be less than the other five sects.
Abbess Miejue suddenly understood. Since the Six Great Sects were united by her, then she would be the leader. Anyway, she had already made up her mind to fight to the death. If she did not destroy the Ming Dynasty, she would not be a human.
"In that case, let this poor nun take the lead. The demons of the Devil Cult are right in front of us. Follow me." Abbess Miejue raised the Heavenly Sword and shouted loudly. Then she stomped her feet and rushed toward the canyon.
With Miejue taking the lead, the disciples of the Emei Sect naturally did not want to fall behind. They all pulled out the long swords at their waists and shouted. Zhou Zhiruo, Jing Xuan, and Ding Minjun were in the front. They were not afraid of death and rushed dauntlessly into the canyon.
The Emei Sect had already rushed out. Song Yuanqiao also gave an order and led Yu LianZhou and Yin Liting to follow them.
Seeing the disciples of the two sects charging in front, the other four sects no longer hesitated. Since things had already come to this point, there was no retreat. They had to fight their way out. The disciples of each sect held their weapons and followed.
On the cliffs on both sides of the canyon, the Five Elements Flags of the Ming Dynasty had already been lying in ambush. In the previous battle, the Five Elements Flags had suffered heavy losses.
However, the Six Great Sects had already reached the final danger zone. They did not dare to be careless. Rolling trees and falling rocks fell one after another, causing great damage to the Six Great Sects.
Seeing the disciples of the Emei Sect die one after another behind her, Miejue's eyes were filled with pain. The hatred in her heart grew stronger. Holding the Heavenly Sword in her hand, she rushed forward unstoppably.
Although the Five Elements Flags had temporarily gained the upper hand, the Six Great Sects rushed into the Brightness Summit like a tide. Immediately, the situation of the battle changed.
The hatred in Miejue's heart had already seeped into her bones. Her face was extremely gloomy. With the Heavenly Sword in her hand, she mercilessly cut the disciples of the Ming Dynasty in half along with their swords.
Everywhere she went, there was a scene of devastation. Blood and weapons danced together, and internal organs and limbs flew high. Every time she swung her sword, she would kill several disciples of the Ming Dynasty.
Under the leadership of Miejue, the disciples of the Emei Sect were filled with grief and indignation when they saw their sisters die. They were not afraid of death. Their swords became fiercer and fiercer, even fiercer than the disciples of the other Five Great Sects.
In the end, the Five Elements Flags suffered heavy losses. They could no longer stop the Six Great Sects' relentless pursuit. They retreated from the canyon and retreated to the open space of the Sacred Fire Altar of the Ming Dynasty.
Looking at the fleeing Five Elements Flags, Miejue quickly stopped and shouted, "Don't chase a cornered enemy. Anyway, we've already passed the natural danger zone. We're only one step away from the headquarters of the Ming Dynasty. Let the disciples of each sect rest."
At this time, Master Kong Wen stepped forward and said with a smile, "Master, you're indeed a woman. It's all thanks to you that we can pass the danger zone so quickly. The Ming Dynasty is right around the corner. We've already won half of the battle."
Master Miejue raised her eyebrows and said, "The Devil Cult has been very cunning along the way. They've killed countless of our disciples. Now, they're retreating with the advantage of the terrain. We can't let our guard down until the end."
"Master, you're worrying too much. The natural danger zone is the only way out of the Brightness Peak. Now that they've lost it, they can only defend the headquarters. With the Six Great Sects joining forces, they won't be able to escape."
Hearing this, Master Miejue pondered for a moment. She felt that it made sense, and her tense heart relaxed a little.
At this time, the disciples of each sect were already cheering in unison. They were bustling with discussion, and the grief in their hearts was swept away. They had also contributed to the siege of the Brightness Peak, so they naturally felt honored.
Just now, although the Five Elements Flags of the Ming Dynasty were brave and fierce, the disciples of the Six Great Sects were not bad either. Although they had lost nearly a hundred people, the Ming Dynasty had the advantage of terrain and manpower, so their losses were twice as high. In comparison, it was a beautiful victory.
The higher-ups of each sect were also beaming with joy and praised them one after another.
"The Ming Dynasty has suppressed our Decent Sects for so many years. Today, we can finally vent our anger."
"In the past, I've heard that Yang Xiao's Heaven, Earth, Wind, and Thunder Generals are experienced in hundreds of battles. Now, he even asked for help from the Heavenly Eagle Cult. It seems that he's just so-so."
The Six Great Sects boasted and praised themselves. However, their morale was high. The disciples of each sect could not wait to attack the headquarters of the Ming Dynasty.
Mu Qingxiao did not care about this at all. He was thinking about how to blow up the Brightness Peak and reduce the losses of the Ming Dynasty. First of all, Zhang Wuji could not die for the time being. He still needed him to lead the way to Bing Huo Island.
After thinking for a long time, Mu Qingxiao could not think of a perfect opportunity. In the end, he could only throw this problem to the back of his mind.
As the saying goes, when the boat reaches the bridge, it will cross the bridge. If it really did not work, he would just blow it up directly. Anyway, how many people of the Six Great Sects and the Ming Dynasty survived had nothing to do with him.
