Dun Fei stood up, looked around, and said calmly, "Our Saint Lotus Path has risen too quickly in the past two years, but because of that, we have made many strong enemies.
Not to mention the Sword Tomb, Demon Smelt Lake, and the other super powers that take us as competitors, just the few great dynasties in the surroundings, the Golden Arrow Sect, the Iron Sword Sect, the Blackwater Alliance, and the other powers have long since taken us as a thorn in their side.
If we announce our current situation to the world, I'm afraid not only will we not be able to get help, but we will also attract a group of tigers and wolves with evil intentions.
At that time, our Saint Lotus Path will be attacked from both sides, and our situation will be even more dangerous. "
Elder Qu frowned. "Temple Master Duan, aren't you overthinking? Our Saint Lotus Path is fighting against the Demon Clan in name and righteousness. If they dare to take advantage of us while we are down, aren't they afraid of going against the righteousness and becoming the public enemy of the martial arts world? "
At this moment, Chi Wufeng snorted disdainfully. "How pedantic! How could something like righteousness be relied on? Moreover, even if they are righteous on the surface, won't they secretly attack us?
When we fought against the Dragons clan and the Spot Clan in the Northern Wilderness, how many people did that to us?
Moreover, right and wrong in this world are defined by the victors!
If our Saint Lotus Path is framed as a traitor who colluded with the Demon Clan, we won't be able to defend ourselves, and we might even be attacked by the entire martial arts world!
At that time, our Saint Lotus Path's good situation will vanish, and we might even face a disaster! "
"This …"
Elder Qu's expression changed abruptly, but he was speechless.
The others also looked at each other, and the worry on their faces deepened.
At this moment, Mu Qingxue's eyes flickered, as if she was thinking about something.
Not long ago, her second grandfather, Mu Jiansheng, had come to her door and gave her the Ice Emperor's Seal, which symbolized the Patriarch's authority. He also conveyed Patriarch Mu Tiancheng's words to let her succeed as the 176th Patriarch of the Mu Clan.
Although she had many questions about this matter, she did not ask because of the urgency of the Saint Lotus Path's internal affairs.
At this moment, she was hesitating whether to return to the Mu Clan to ask for reinforcements.
Although the Mu Clan's strength was far inferior to the Sacred Lotus Dao, if he could win them over, they would also be a pretty good help.
However, she quickly discarded this thought. The internal affairs of the Mu Clan were too complicated, and she did not have the confidence to control the Mu Clan in a short period of time. If news of this were to leak out, it would only bring more trouble to the Sacred Lotus Path.
She pondered for a moment, then looked at Maki Cangsheng and asked, "Maki Cangsheng, what do you think of this?"
Maki Cangsheng smiled indifferently and said, "This matter is indeed not suitable to be announced. Everything depends on oneself!
If the day comes when our Holy Lotus Dao cannot hold on any longer, then we will give up on the Illusory Demon Orb!
The calamity of the Devil Race is a calamity to the entire Human Race. No matter what, we must protect the Path of the Sacred Lotus for the Dao Master. "
Upon hearing this, Mu Qingxue frowned slightly.
She couldn't imagine how much suffering the invasion of the Devil Race would bring to the True Martial World once the passageway was lost.
However, the Divine Lotus Dao was Lin Xuan's foundation. Although she was worried about the lives of the world, she could not bear to see her beloved's many years of hard work go to waste.
Boom — —
A violent collision sound came from the depths of the passageway, causing the entire ground to shake.
"Damn it! The Devil Race is widening the passageway again! We must stop them with all our strength! "
"The ordinary Devil Race is already very difficult to deal with. Those Giant Devil Race royalty will only be more terrifying. Once they rush over, we will definitely suffer heavy losses!"
"Prepare the God Destroyer Crossbows — —"
Everyone in the Holy Lotus Dao took their positions and began to fiercely block the Devil Race in the depths of the passageway.
The collapsed passageway was very narrow, barely allowing a carriage to pass through. Only those small Devil Race members could pass through.
The Giant Devil Race royalty among the Devil Race was easily dozens of meters, dozens of meters, or even hundreds of meters in size. It was impossible for them to crawl over.
Therefore, after a few probing attacks, the Devil Race no longer tried to force their way in. Instead, they tried to clear the passageway and widen it to allow more powerful Devil Race members to pass through.
However, the Holy Lotus Dao was very well prepared. Under a torrential rain of crossbows, the Devil Race members who rushed into the passageway were quickly shot dead, causing heavy casualties to the Devil Race.
However, before everyone could rejoice, dozens of blurry figures suddenly rushed out of the passageway.
Before anyone could react, these figures had already burrowed into the Holy Lotus Dao crowd and disappeared.
"What is that? Everyone, be more alert! "
"Not good! It's the Shadow Devil! It's the damned Shadow Devil! "
"Ah — —"
"Kekeke! Foolish humans, you are all finished! "
"Roar — —"
The entire underground space immediately fell into chaos.
Those Shadow Devils were illusory and formless, and could easily take over the bodies of humans. They constantly caused panic and slaughter, making it difficult to distinguish between friend and foe in the Holy Lotus Dao. Everyone was in danger.
The situation quickly spiraled out of control.
At this moment, even Mu Qingxue and Maki Cangsheng were unable to control the situation. They could only do their best to find the people possessed by the Shadow Devil and kill them.
However, they only killed the bodies of former Holy Lotus Dao members. The Shadow Devil that was hiding in them escaped in an instant and continued to take over the bodies of others.
Since ancient times, the Shadow Devil Race had been the most cunning and vicious race among the Devil Race. Their destructive power was terrifying, but they were very difficult to kill. They were practically the nightmare of the human race.
The sneak attack of the Shadow Devil Race quickly disintegrated the defense of the Holy Lotus Dao. On the other side of the passageway, countless Devil Race members who were proficient in demonic patterns were racing against time to expand the passageway, preparing for a large-scale invasion.
At this moment, the situation was very critical. Many of the Holy Lotus Dao's higher-ups had already lost all hope and were ready to turn and run for their lives.
At this critical moment, suddenly, a dignified and cold figure appeared in the air, looking down at the chaos below.
"The Devil Race is really all-pervasive!"
Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with anger.
He immediately activated the Eye of Fortune and scanned the area below.
The fate of the human race was different from that of the Devil Race. With a glance, he instantly found the 13 Shadow Devils that had infiltrated the Holy Lotus Dao crowd.
His figure suddenly disappeared, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared behind a Divine Astral Realm martial artist and unceremoniously pressed his palm down!
Poof!
A terrifying and violent force condensed in the center of his palm, easily crushing that martial artist and turning him into powder.
Half of the Shadow Devil's miserable howl could be vaguely heard in the air, but it suddenly stopped. Following that, pieces of minced meat that contained demonic qi scattered on the ground.
This was a Shadow Devil that had been killed by Lin Xuan.
"Sect Master? Sect Master is back! That's great! "
"It's really Sect Master! Hahaha! We're saved! "
Lin Xuan's appearance was quickly noticed by the Holy Lotus Dao crowd. Everyone was wild with joy, as if they had found their backbone. The chaotic situation suddenly became much more peaceful.
Lin Xuan didn't care about anything else. His figure flashed, and once again, he appeared in front of a combat soldier that had been possessed by a Shadow Devil and swung his iron fist …
Bang bang bang bang — —
Lin Xuan's figure was like lightning, shuttling back and forth in the air. At the same time, he continuously swung his iron fist, killing one Shadow Devil after another.
These Shadow Devils were all Rank Four. Although their methods were strange and their whereabouts were unpredictable, they were still nothing in front of Lin Xuan.
Once they were targeted by Lin Xuan, only death awaited them.
In just a few breaths' time, all 13 Shadow Devils were killed. Lin Xuan alone killed eight of them, while the remaining five were killed by Mu Qingxue, Li Qiushui, and the rest.
Without the Shadow Devils causing trouble, the Holy Lotus Dao crowd quickly regrouped and launched an even more ferocious attack on the Devil Race in the tunnel, once again cutting off the tentacles of the Devil Race.
