Tianyun Peak was the tallest, piercing straight into the clouds. It was the main peak. Around the main peak, there were six other peaks. Each peak had a different atmosphere and a different aura. They stood tall and resonated with the main peak. Looking at their positions, they seemed to be a natural formation. An obscure charm was constantly flowing.
On each of these seven peaks, there were courtyards and palaces. Especially on the main peak, there was a majestic hall that stood tall. Sitting on it, there was an aura of ascending to the heavens.
On each peak, there were a large number of disciples wearing the same clothes or breathing in the purple Qi that was released when the sun rose. They were absorbing the purple Qi that was released in the morning. The purple Qi that was released every morning was the intersection of Yin and Yang in the world, the alternation of the sun and moon. It formed the purest and most mysterious power. The purple Qi contained fortune.
After absorbing and refining the purple Qi, it was irreplaceable for expanding and stabilizing one's Purple Palace and purifying one's True Yuan. Therefore, immortal cultivators treated absorbing the Eastern Pole Purple Qi as the most important thing in the day. Perhaps one or two days would not make a difference, but if one persisted, the benefits were obvious. It was understood that those who could form the Immortal Soul and ascend to the Immortal Realm were mostly those who persisted in absorbing the Eastern Pole Purple Qi day after day.
Therefore, in the immortal cultivation world, every morning, they would face the East and absorb the purple Qi.
Of course, this was not absolute. There were also those who practiced spells or sword techniques. Every peak had a large field. The field was filled with immortal cultivators. Most of them were following behind some imparting disciples, learning the basic sword techniques and formations of the sect.
It was obvious that the sect in this mountain range was quite prosperous. The disciples on the seven peaks added up to no less than ten thousand people. This did not include the people at the foot of the mountain. There was an endless stream of people in the markets of various sizes. There were all kinds of spiritual herbs and spiritual items planted around the courtyards.
It was very prosperous.
A sect could not be established just because one wanted to. It could survive just because one wanted to. There were many things that one had to pay attention to. For example, the immortal cultivators' food and drink.
There was a saying: Immortals and mortals are different. Once you enter the immortal sect, you will no longer eat the food of mortals.
This didn't mean that cultivators didn't need to eat and drink. It was just that the five grains of the mortal world contained too many impurities and too much turbid Qi. During the Qi Refining stage, they could still eat them. However, once they broke through the Qi Refining stage and reached the Foundation Building stage, the spiritual root in their body would be completely stimulated and their bodies would be tempered. They would be able to get rid of the accumulated impurities and filth in their bodies, allowing them to be closer to the heaven and earth and be able to sense the various kinds of spiritual Qi between heaven and earth.
At this point, one could abstain from eating and drinking for ten days to half a month without dying.
At this time, if he were to eat grains, the impurities in the grains would remain in his body, which would harm his body and hinder his ability to sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. At that time, they would have to specially spend time to refine it, which was not worth it. Therefore, cultivators rarely ate food from the secular world. Of course, it wasn't that they didn't eat.
It was just that they didn't eat the five grains, but the spiritual grains!
Spirit grains were carefully selected from the various grains in the mortal world that contained Spirit Qi. They were then placed on specially opened Spirit Lands to be planted. These Spirit Seeds did not absorb the fertile nutrients of the land, but instead directly absorbed Spirit Qi from the Spirit Lands to support their own growth.
Therefore, what grew were no longer the five grains, but the spiritual grains, which were filled with spiritual Qi. Although there wasn't much of it, when eaten, not only was it more delicious than the five grains in the secular world, but it could also slightly increase one's spiritual Qi and cleanse the body.
No matter which sect it was, if one wanted to establish a sect, they must first have a spiritual land and plant spiritual grains.
For these spiritual grains, the growers were called spiritual plant masters. Generally, very few inner sect disciples would do it. Most of them were planted by outer sect disciples or some rogue cultivators under the sect.
Therefore, under each mountain, there was a large spiritual land that was cultivated and planted with various spiritual plants.
The sect in this mountain range was called the Pure Yang Sect. It specialized in formations and sword cultivation, and was considered an above average sect in the cultivation world. In the surrounding hundreds of thousands of miles, it was the largest. The mountain range was called the Big Dipper Mountain Range.
"Whoosh!"
The originally calm sky above the mountain range was broken by a flame-like sword light. This sword light didn't stop above the Big Dipper Mountain Range. It was like lightning that didn't stop for a moment, rushing straight to the main peak of the seven mountains, Tianyun Peak. When the sword light reached the edge of the seven mountains, a restriction appeared, but it was immediately pacified by a spiritual talisman.
Then, the sword light flew into the main peak!
A moment later —
"Dong! Dong! — "
Nine consecutive bell tolls resounded through the entire Big Dipper Mountain Range. Almost everyone could hear the aura of imminent danger from the sound of the bell.
"Listen, this is the sect's Haotian Bell. When the bell tolls, something big must have happened."
"En, this is bad. It's nine bell tolls. Everyone, quickly return to the sect!"
In an instant, everyone in the Big Dipper Mountain Range, regardless of whether they were in the market or in seclusion, their expressions changed when they heard the nine consecutive rings of the bell. No matter what they were doing, they immediately put down whatever they were doing and turned around to rush towards Tian Yun Peak with their fastest speed.
In the Pure Yang Sect, the Haotian Bell wasn't usually rung, but when it did, it meant that something big had happened. If it only rang three times, then it was only to summon people with important positions in the sect, so it wouldn't be too big of a deal. If it rang six times, then anyone who could spare time would have to rush over. But if it rang nine times in a row, then it was a matter of life and death for the entire sect. Anyone, as long as they were a disciple of the Pure Yang Sect, had to put down what they were doing and rush to the main peak immediately. Otherwise, they would be dealt with as traitors.
Many people were a little surprised when they heard the bell tolls, but they immediately went crazy and rushed to the main peak on their swords. For a time, the sky above the mountain range was filled with swords of different colors that rose from all directions like a rain of arrows, forcibly blocking the entire sky.
They came and went like shooting stars.
It had the momentum of ten thousand swords returning to the sect.
In the Pure Yang Hall on Tianyun Peak, a middle-aged man with a resolute face and two ancient swords on his back had an unusually sharp gaze. He looked at people as if they were two sharp swords. He sat in the main hall with five cultivators on each side. Among them, three were women and seven were men. They all looked middle-aged, but without exception, they all had ancient swords on their backs. They were the standard attire of sword cultivators.
At this moment, their expressions were all dignified. This kind of dignified expression made the air in the main hall seem quite oppressive, making it difficult for people to even breathe.
"Sect Master, what should we do now? The news has been confirmed. A large number of demons are attacking our Pure Yang Sect. It seems that they will reach the sect in a short while. These demons were all elites from Misty Wave Island. The weakest of them were demonic beasts, not to mention the Demon King who had condensed his inner core. There were even a few of the Eight Great Demon Kings among them. It seems that they already know what the cultivation world has done to the demons in the past few years. This is revenge! "In the main hall, the law enforcement elder, Xiao Yan, took a deep breath. His expression was unusually heavy.
"That's right. There are more than ten thousand demons, and they are all elites among the demons. They are the best of the best who survived in the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm. Every one of them is comparable to our Core Formation cultivators, not to mention the Demon Kings who have condensed their inner cores. There are also the even more terrifying Eight Great Demon Kings. With our strength, I'm afraid we won't be able to stop them. There are only a thousand Core Formation cultivators in the sect, and the rest are mostly Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment cultivators. After all, our Pure Yang Sect's foundation is not as deep as the other great sects', "another elder surnamed Duan said with a gloomy expression.
In fact, everyone in the main hall knew very well.
The Pure Yang Sect had only been established for three thousand years, and their foundation was far inferior to the other great sects'. Now that the demons were coming in anger, they were standing in front of the demons. It could be said that they were bearing the brunt of the demons' attack.
Sect Master Zhang Guo lowered his eyes and listened to the arguments in the main hall. After a long while, he opened his eyes and suddenly stood up. His face flashed with determination, and he said, "There's no need to argue anymore. Our Pure Yang Sect is facing a great calamity this time. Karma is a cycle, and retribution is not pleasant. Today, I have learned a lesson. In the evening, we encircled the demons, and now they are coming to kill us. Resentment is useless. Third Junior Sister, immediately go out and take the sect's elites with you. Leave behind a seed for the future of the Pure Yang Sect. As for the other Junior Brothers and Sisters, follow me and activate the sect's protective formation to resist the calamity. "
In a few words, he decided everything on the spot, and in the blink of an eye, he assigned all kinds of tasks.
First, he saved a portion of the sect's elites for a comeback. Then, he made the decision to stay behind and resist the enraged demon army.
This was the final sacrifice for the retreat of the other elites.
"Boom boom boom! — "
The speed of the demons was extremely fast. The Pure Yang Sect also knew the situation they were about to face. First, the Pure Yang Sect's Third Elder, Fairy Tian Feng, led the sect's three thousand disciples with the most potential and a portion of the sect's treasures, and quickly left in the opposite direction without hesitation. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared.
At the same time, the seven mountains suddenly burst out with rays of intense light. Countless Sword Qi gushed out crazily, and countless restrictions appeared. In this movement, the aura of the seven mountains instantly connected perfectly. There seemed to be countless mysterious connections between them. In an instant, the earth shook and the mountains shook.
From the peak of the mountain, seven rays of sword light directly shot into the sky. They rushed into the clouds, cut through the clouds, and went straight into the void.
In an instant, it was still early in the morning. Bright and beautiful rays of sunlight spilled down and shone on the earth. However, when the seven mysterious rays of sword light rushed into the sky above the Big Dipper Mountain Range, the void suddenly turned pitch-black. A boundless starry sky appeared, and in the sky, there were only seven stars. They emitted brilliant starlight and arranged themselves like a spoon. It was the Big Dipper.
As soon as the seven stars appeared, seven rays of starlight instantly fell from the stars and landed on the seven mountains with a loud bang. In an instant, the seven mountain peaks rumbled unceasingly. Their entire bodies were covered in starlight, and in an instant, they were resplendent and magical. This starlight condensed and did not disperse. It mysteriously turned the covered mountain peaks into starry battle swords that pierced the clouds.
"Hum! — "
The starry swords rumbled together, and a boundless might shrouded the entire Big Dipper Mountain Range. The swords instantly rose from the ground and hovered in the void. As if they were about to unleash a thunderous strike at any time.
This was the Pure Yang Sect's number one formation — the Big Dipper Sword Formation!
It was using all of the sect's disciples!
The more people used this formation, the stronger it became, and the more violent the starry sword qi that erupted.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! — "
"Despicable and shameless cultivators, today you'll pay for it with your own blood!"
"You encircled and annihilated us monsters. Today, even if I don't give up my life, I'll make you pay the price for it!"
Black clouds rolled in the sky as if a demon god had descended, covering the entire horizon in an instant. Furious roars filled with endless hatred resounded through the sky.
Monstrous flames of fury burned fiercely.
The monsters howled with rage as they arrived at the Big Dipper Mountain Range. When they saw the seven incomparably huge starry swords in the mountain range, they could clearly feel the sharp sword qi emanating from them. If it were any other time, perhaps they would've temporarily avoided them, but now they were burning with rage and their minds were filled with boundless hatred. Not to mention the swords, even if there was a towering pillar in front of them, they wouldn't hesitate to step forward and topple it.
However, the monsters weren't brainless. When they saw the incomparably huge starry swords, they instinctively felt a strong threat from them. None of them rashly charged over, but they stopped at the edge of the Big Dipper Mountain Range.
"Tsk tsk, what a big scene. Look at this sword formation, it's not simple at all."
Among the monsters, Silver Hair and the other two had different identities. Although they followed, they didn't act as the leaders. They just stood in the middle together to embolden themselves. The Blood Wyrm King sneered as he looked at the incomparably huge sword formation in front of him. The aura coming from the sword formation even made him feel a strong threat.
"The sword forms the Big Dipper, and the seven stars of the Big Dipper revolve. This should be the extremely famous Big Dipper Sword Formation in the cultivation world. It's quite powerful. If you're covered by the sword formation, not only will it be difficult to find a way out, but the sword qi inside will also be rampant. It revolves according to the seven stars and draws on the power of the stars. With the help of the power of the stars, this sword formation's power can be used to kill a cultivator who has passed the tribulation. I didn't expect to encounter an obstacle as soon as I went out. It's a little difficult to break this formation. "
Silver Hair was the most experienced, and no one could compare to him in terms of experience. His eyes flickered as he spoke calmly.
"It's not difficult to break it!"
At this moment, the Misty Cloud Demon King, Bi Ziyan, who had been holding the jade bamboo all this time, sketched restrictions on it with one hand and imprinted them on the jade bamboo. She glanced at the sword formation and then looked up into the void. The starlight fell from the sky and connected with the sword formation, supporting the operation of the sword formation. After he finished reading, he said indifferently, "Don't worry.
Clap clap! — —
The Blood Wyrm King's eyes lit up, and he said with an evil smile, "That's right. How could I almost forget your best move, Misty Cloud? As long as you summon clouds and mist to block the stars and isolate the power of the sword formation, this formation can be easily broken."
Bi Ziyan was a monster born from the clouds and mist. She was born with magical powers and could summon large clouds and mist. Now it seemed that it was the best way to deal with the Big Dipper Sword Formation.
However, Bi Ziyan shook her head indifferently and said, "I can summon clouds and mist, but I can't block all the light of the stars. If I want to break the formation, I need the three princesses behind me. "
Silver Hair's eyes flashed, and he looked back thoughtfully. Ao Qing and the rest were not far away, and he said in a deep voice, "You're talking about the dragon race's most famous magical power — Call the Wind and Summon the Rain!"
"Hehe, interesting, very interesting. Call the Wind and Summon the Rain is the dragon race's most basic magical power. Not only can it summon clouds and rain, but it can also be used to kill. Its power is astonishing, and it's a rare great magical power." The Blood Wyrm King glanced at Ao Qing and the other two girls evilly and said with a strange smile, "I wonder if I can steal one of them to be my wife and learn this magical power."
"Hmph, Old Wyrm, our demon race is now in a precarious situation. Don't think too much. Call the Wind and Summon the Rain is an innate magical power passed down in the dragon race's bloodline. Even if you learn it, you won't be able to have the great power that the dragon race uses. "Silver Hair looked at the Blood Wyrm King indifferently. After saying that, he turned around and walked toward Ao Qing and the rest.
Call the Wind and Summon the Rain was not just an ordinary rain-making technique. Its power was a very powerful magical power in the world, and it was the foundation of all magical powers of the dragon race. If it was just an ordinary rain, it would be fine. But if it was really unleashed, that kind of power was simply like the apocalypse.
No one knew how Silver Hair told Ao Qing and the rest.
After a while, he turned around.
Then, in the sky above the mountain range, there was a sudden clap of thunder, and a pitch-black darkness appeared out of thin air. The pitch-black gale let out shrill howls, and the wind carried mysterious black wind blades. Wherever the black wind went, a large number of flowers and trees on the ground seemed to have sped up countless times. They instantly turned yellow, and the black wind took away all the vitality.
When the wind blew on the sword formation, the starlight around the sword formation was extremely dim. Raindrops fell with the wind and landed on the ground, forming ice crystals. The astonishing cold air seemed to be able to freeze everything. When it landed on the starlight, the starlight was also melted. Thick black clouds covered the entire starry sky, isolating the power of the stars.
"Call the Wind and Summon the Rain is indeed a magical power of the dragon race. However, it seems that Ao Qing and the rest haven't cultivated it to a high level."
Silver Hair sighed after reading it.
With the help of Call the Wind and Summon the Rain, the demons immediately used their magical powers to break the sword formation. The bloody slaughter filled the entire air with the color of blood.
A day later, the Pure Yang Sect was destroyed —
The anger of the demons was obviously not something that could be quelled by the Pure Yang Sect. They did not slow down at all and continued to sweep toward the next sect.
The impact of the demons' revenge could be said to be earth-shattering.
For half a month, it was almost unstoppable. Along the way, the various Immortal Sects were destroyed. No less than five medium-sized Immortal Sects were destroyed. This anger burned the life of the Immortal Cultivators.
The large sects that did not take the demons seriously were also stunned by the madness of the demons.
It was hard to imagine that the current demons would make such an obvious declaration of war against the Immortal Cultivation World and destroy almost hundreds of large and small sects. The Immortal Cultivation World, which had never been challenged, fell into a daze and could not change the situation in front of them for a while.
