It had been seven days since the internal strife of the Magic Lotus Sect. The hunt for the traitors of the Magic Lotus Sect was still ongoing in Heaven Song City and its surrounding areas. Everyone was in a state of panic.
In order to distinguish between his own people and the traitors, Lin Xuan had ordered the Elder Pavilion to refine the identity tokens. He sent out five thousand elite Taoists and twenty thousand Guardian Army soldiers to hunt down the traitors. Once they were caught, they would be killed without mercy.
At the same time, he also issued a high-priced mission in the Sanctuary Alliance and offered a bounty for the traitors' heads in the entire Northern Wilderness.
The effect was very obvious. In just seven days, more than eight thousand traitors had been beheaded.
However, Lin Xuan was not satisfied with this result.
Because according to his estimation, there were at least twenty thousand traitors scattered in the Northern Wilderness.
Among these twenty thousand traitors, there were about four hundred God Astral Realm experts and the rest were all True Energy Realm experts. This was still a very strong force that he could not ignore.
In the Conference Hall, Lin Xuan sat on the throne and listened to the reports of the people below.
Yan Hui said, "Sect Master, Chi Wufeng and Wang Jingran have gathered some traitors and escaped into the mountains of Wuzhou. The specific location is unknown, but there are at least three thousand traitors."
Tie Lie walked out of the crowd and said loudly, "Sect Master, we must eliminate all evil! We must not sit back and watch these traitors grow. I request for battle! "
Lin Xuan's eyes were as deep as the abyss. He pondered for a while and ordered, "Tie Lie! I will give you a hundred divine guards and five thousand Taoists. You must eliminate Chi Wufeng and his people! In addition, take Qing Ming with you. The two of you will do this together! "
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Tie Lie's face lit up and he left excitedly.
Tie Lie and Qing Ming, one was a typical bloodthirsty maniac and the other was a greedy and shameless scum of the Dragons clan. Even if they stayed in Heaven Song City, they would cause trouble every day. This kind of task was best left to them.
Yan Hui continued his report, "Dao Master, Prince Huan Yu Changfeng arrived at the North Barren ten days ago. He led the thirty thousand Silver Feather Army and defeated the Blood Jiao Tribe, reclaiming the Thunder Firmament City.
He has already sent an invitation to you, inviting you to the celebration party in three days. I heard that he has also invited the leaders of the major forces in the Northern Wilderness. Would you like to attend? "
Lin Xuan's eyebrows twitched as he asked in confusion, "Yu Changfeng? How can a mere Crown Prince Huan mobilize the Silver Feather Army? "
The Silver Feather Army was the most elite army of the Daqian dynasty. They were mainly in charge of protecting the imperial capital and the safety of the royal family. Without a proper reason, even the Crown Prince Yu Tianxing could not order them around.
Yan Hui said, "According to rumors, Yu Changfeng is a person with first-class talent and unparalleled combat strength. He is one of the martial arts geniuses with the most potential among the Imperial Family's descendants. He is also a strong contender to be the next Crown Prince. Moreover, he has already obtained the support of Sword Maste. In the battle of Thunder Firmament City a few days ago, Sword Maste's disciples participated."
"Oh? Seems like the North Barren is getting more and more interesting. "
Lin Xuan's lips curled into a playful smile.
It was not hard to guess that this Crown Prince Huan came to the North Barren to seize military merits and pave the way for the Crown Prince's position.
And no matter what Yu Changfeng wanted to do, Lin Xuan, the Dao Master of the Magic Lotus Sect and the leader of the Sanctuary Alliance, was a threshold that could not be avoided.
It could not be helped. Lin Xuan had now become the biggest local snake in the North Barren. Most of the elites of the North Barren's martial arts world were already in the Sanctuary Alliance's network.
Without Lin Xuan's approval, the thirty thousand Silver Feather Army and a few Sword Maste's disciples would not be able to cause much trouble in the North Barren.
Lin Xuan thought for a while and said, "I won't go. Let Qiushui go take a look for me."
At this moment, Elder Li Futao stepped out with a worried face and said, "Dao Master, there are a few Doyen sects of the Sanctuary Alliance that are secretly planning to leave the Sanctuary Alliance. They are even actively colluding with other sects. If they are allowed to do as they please, I'm afraid the Sanctuary Alliance will be in chaos."
Lin Xuan asked indifferently, "Which sects are involved?"
Li Futao said angrily, "The Grand Barren Sect, the Star Alliance, and the Hundred Beasts Sect. It's mainly these three sects!"
Lin Xuan could not help but frown. These three sects were the top sects in the North Barren. Before the appearance of the Human Emperor's Tablet, these three sects each had at least ten Heavenly Transformation Realm experts.
Although the Heavenly Transformation Realm experts had left the North Barren, their strength was still not to be underestimated. Each of them had one to two hundred God Astral Realm disciples, a few thousand True Energy Realm disciples, and countless Atman Body Realm disciples.
Before the internal strife, the Magic Lotus Sect could still suppress them with absolute strength. However, after the internal strife, the Magic Lotus Sect's strength had shrunk by more than half. They could barely gather eight hundred God Astral Realm experts. Facing these powerful local tyrants, they were unable to make ends meet.
"Which one of these three sects is the most active?" Lin Xuan sneered.
"Eh?"
Li Futao was slightly startled. Soon after, he said, "Among the three sects, the Grand Desolate Sect is the one that is causing the most trouble. Recently, a group of mysterious people have arrived at the Grand Desolate Sect. However, I do not know if this matter is related to those mysterious people.
Lin Xuan ordered, "Yan Hui, go and contact the Sect Masters of these three sects. Find out what they want to do. Also, find out the background of these mysterious people."
"Yes!"
Yan Hui bowed as he received the order.
Lin Xuan thought for a while, then sneered, "If they insist on quitting, don't force them. Everything depends on strength."
"I understand."
After dealing with the affairs of the Dao, everyone dispersed.
Lin Xuan sat alone on the throne, took out a bottle of wine, and took a big gulp. With the burning sensation in his throat, blood rushed to the top of his head.
"Phew —"
He exhaled a long breath, but his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Over the past few months since the Covenant Alliance was established, his enemies had either died, fled, or lurked, which gave him a rare moment of peace.
Unfortunately, these days of peace were too short.
A person in the Jianghu was like a boat sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will fall behind.
The Ban Clan, the Northern Foreign Tribes, the believers of the Lotus God, the major sects in the Sanctuary Alliance, and Crown Prince Huan, who had just arrived in the Northern Wilderness, were all unstable factors to him.
This did not include the Dragon Soul Hall, who was hiding in the dark, and the Dark Hall and Infernal Purgatory, who had left the Northern Wilderness on the surface.
Both in the open and in the dark, there were many problems waiting for him to solve.
However, he did not have much time.
There was less than half a year left before Crown Prince Yu Tianxing's abdication.
He had to stabilize the Sanctuary Alliance as soon as possible, and let the Magic Lotus Sect gain a foothold. Only then could he go to the Imperial Capital with peace of mind, and conspire with Yu Tianxing and Maki Cangsheng for the fate of the Daqian Dynasty.
"Now that I have the Sacrificial Array, I need to familiarize myself with its functions before going to the Imperial Capital. I want to see who will be the first to become its sacrificial offering!"
Lin Xuan smiled coldly.
It was said that in the ancient times, the Great Yin Dynasty's emperor used the Sacrificial Array to annihilate countless sects, and that was how the Great Yin Dynasty was built for eight hundred years.
Lin Xuan also wanted to see how powerful this array was.
"Eh! The fake body has matured! That's great! "
Suddenly, Lin Xuan's face lit up, and he could not wait to enter the Illusory Demon Orb.
At the center of the safe zone, around the tall altar, more than forty thousand Lotus God believers were still praying devoutly, offering their power of faith to the Lotus God.
Unfortunately, they did not know that the power of faith they were offering was all gathered in the Demonic Lotus Seal, and the Lotus Demon could not receive even a trace of it.
Lin Xuan did not disturb them, and he walked to the edge of the Illusory Demon Orb, and walked up to the Blood Soul Altar.
The blood essence in the blood pool on the altar had all disappeared, and only a two-meter wide cocoon of light was left.
The bloody light around the cocoon of light was also gradually receding, and a naked, bald man was gradually revealed.
This man was naked, and his body was burly, and his skin was as soft as a baby's. He lay quietly on the ground, his chest rising and falling slightly, as if he was breathing, but there were no soul fluctuations.
Lin Xuan walked closer, and his eyes lit up. This fake body was formed from his bloodline and endless life energy, so it was exactly the same as him.
However, this was just a shell without a soul.
Lin Xuan took out a Spiritual Treasure long sword and tried to cut the arm of the fake body.
Bang!
There was a muffled sound.
Lin Xuan looked over in surprise, only to see that the long sword did not even break the skin, leaving only a faint mark that quickly disappeared without a trace.
"The strength of this fake body is no weaker than an ordinary God Astral Realm expert. Good! Great! This will save me a lot of trouble! "
Lin Xuan could not help but be overjoyed.
This fake body seemed to be very successful, and he could already proceed to the next step, the Soul Splitting Seed Dao!
If he could successfully refine it into a doppelganger, the benefits would be limitless. Not only would he have more loyal and reliable combat power, but it would also free his original body from some mundane affairs, and he would have a lot of time to cultivate.
