The night was as cold as water.
It was like the night before the storm. The world was quiet, silent, and the final storm was brewing.
There were countless towering mountains here, densely packed like stars in the sky. It was as if there were giant ancient beasts in deep slumber.
Clouds and mist filled the air. The thick clouds and mist were like a sea of fog.
This was where the ancient sect, Mountain Sea Pavilion, was located.
On one of the huge mountains.
On the top of the mountain, there was a vast platform.
There were tens of thousands of cultivators gathered here.
But strangely, the eyes of these cultivators seemed to be a little dull.
It was as if they were dead.
Suddenly. At a certain moment.
More than a hundred fluorescent lights flashed in the sky.
Then, among the many cultivators on the platform, some of their eyes flashed with a bright light, and they regained their clarity.
It was as if a soul had been injected into the walking dead, and they had come back to life.
The test of the Void World had officially begun.
.....
Lu Qingshan came back to his senses and slowly opened his eyes.
He first checked his current state. Although he was now wearing the Taoist robe of Mountain Sea Pavilion, and his appearance and figure had changed.
But whether it was his cultivation base or Dharma Artifacts, they were the same as when he came in.
Lu Qingshan looked around. All around him were Mountain Sea Pavilion Qi Refinement cultivators wearing blue Taoist robes like him.
He knew that among the thousands of Mountain Sea Pavilion Qi Refinement cultivators, only 179 were real living people.
The others were just illusions of the Void World.
.....
Everyone was silent, as if they were waiting for something.
Lu Qingshan was the same.
A moment later.
In the distance, the clouds and mist filled the air.
A dazzling blue stream of light flashed.
In the dark night, it was like a shooting star.
And this shooting star was now heading straight for the huge mountain where Lu Qingshan was.
Soon.
The stream of light stopped above the cultivators, revealing the figure of a human.
It was a middle-aged male cultivator in a white robe with a tired face.
His aura was as deep as an abyss.
"Sect Master!" All the Mountain Sea Pavilion disciples present said respectfully in unison.
The white-robed cultivator, who was called the Sect Master, glanced at all the cultivators present.
He let out a long sigh and spoke slowly.
"I think all of you already know."
"Right now, the Mountain Sea Pavilion is surrounded by the Demon Master of Myriad Poisons and his many Demons."
"The Demon Master of Myriad Poisons sent someone to negotiate with our Mountain Sea Pavilion. He wants us to submit to the Demons."
"He gave us one night to think about it."
"However, there's no need to think about it. Cultivators of the Mountain Sea Pavilion can only die standing. There's no such thing as kneeling and dragging out an ignoble existence."
"I'm afraid that after today, the Mountain Sea Pavilion won't be able to survive. As the last Sect Master of the Mountain Sea Pavilion, the only thing I can do now is to lead the cultivators of the Mountain Sea Pavilion and fight the Demons to the death. I don't want to disgrace the name of the Mountain Sea Pavilion."
"I only hope that the seniors of the Mountain Sea Pavilion will not blame this unfilial disciple of mine."
The Mountain Sea Pavilion Master was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about something.
All the cultivators below the stage were silent.
Finally, some extremely soft sobbing sounds could be heard.
It was like a wire that ignited a barrel of gunpowder.
The sound of sobbing gradually spread.
Growing up in the Mountain Sea Pavilion, they had always treated the Mountain Sea Pavilion as their home.
Now, this home was on the verge of death.
Who wouldn't be sad from the heart?
The Mountain Sea Pavilion Master looked at the disciples who were constantly sobbing, his eyes full of deep sadness.
"You disciples are just Qi Refinement Realm cultivators. The Mountain Sea Pavilion should have nurtured and protected you for hundreds or thousands of years. When you grow up to become Supreme Cultivators, you can support the Mountain Sea Pavilion."
"Now, you haven't grown up yet, and the Mountain Sea Pavilion hasn't given you too many resources, yet you have to face such a disaster."
"Now, I'll give you a choice."
"Escape or stay and die with the Mountain Sea Pavilion."
"If you stay, with the cruel means of the Demons, there's no chance of survival."
"If you escape, the Demons have gathered countless people outside the Mountain Sea Pavilion at this moment and sealed the space. Ordinary Teleportation Formations are useless."
"Only the Heaven-fixing Teleportation Formation can still be used, but the destination of the Heaven-fixing Teleportation Formation can't be controlled at all. It's random. The Elders are now building the Heaven-fixing Teleportation Formation at the Flying Peak."
"At present, we still don't know the means of the Demons. Although the Heaven-fixing Teleportation Formation can still be used, it's very likely that there will be flaws."
"Moreover, the Demons are everywhere within a radius of ten thousand miles. Even if you escape through the Teleportation Formation, you may have just left the wolf's cave and entered the tiger's den."
"So, even if you choose to escape through the Heaven-fixing Teleportation Formation, it's still a situation of nine deaths, but it's better than staying behind and dying."
"Don't be ashamed of choosing to escape. As Qi Refinement Realm cultivators, even if you stay, it won't mean much to the Mountain Sea Pavilion."
"But if you choose to escape and really survive, there may be a glimmer of hope for the continuation of the Mountain Sea Pavilion's legacy."
"If that's the case, you will be the heroes of the Mountain Sea Pavilion."
"Think about it carefully. Escape or stay."
The Mountain Sea Pavilion Master waved his sleeve.
A deep blue rune appeared above the cultivators and didn't disappear for a long time.
"Those who choose to stay, stand on the right side of the blue light. Those who choose to escape, stand on the right side of the blue light …" The voice of the Mountain Sea Pavilion Master began to tremble, and his voice became lower and lower. Gradually, he fell silent.
Because just as he finished speaking and chose to stand on the right side of the blue light …
The huge crowd seemed to be controlled by something.
There was no discussion, no hesitation.
At this moment, all of them moved to the right side of the blue light.
In the dark night, these tens of thousands of low-level Qi Refinement Realm cultivators all gathered together. Some of them were still sobbing in a low voice.
Everyone's faces were under the shadow, so the Mountain Sea Pavilion Master could not see clearly.
An inexplicable strange feeling surged back and forth in his chest.
"The cultivators of the Mountain Sea Pavilion are all willing to die with the Mountain Sea Pavilion!"
In the crowd, someone shouted first.
Then, one after another, the voices gradually became orderly.
The voices went straight to the sky.
"Die with the Mountain Sea Pavilion!"
"Die with the Mountain Sea Pavilion!"
"Die with the Mountain Sea Pavilion!"
.....
Flying Peak.
Several Formation Grandmasters of the Mountain Sea Pavilion were working together with the disciples of the Mountain Sea Pavilion who were proficient in formations. They were constantly drawing the formation lines and building the Fixed Heaven Teleportation Formation.
Suddenly, one of the Formation Grandmasters raised his head.
"There seems to be a sound?"
"There's no sound …"
"Don't talk, listen!"
An ethereal voice floated in the clouds, intermittent.
Finally, the voice became clearer and clearer.
"Die … together … with the Mountain Sea!"
The Formation Grandmaster's eyes lit up as he looked in the direction of the voice.
"That's …"
The Formation Grandmaster hurriedly took out the Mountain Sea Pavilion token from his storage ring.
The token was constantly glowing.
The Formation Grandmaster probed it with his Divine Sense.
The Sect Master's gentle voice came.
After receiving the message from the Sect Master, the Formation Grandmaster was shocked.
"Everyone, stop!"
Everyone raised their heads and looked at the Formation Grandmaster.
"Dismantle these formation lines!" The Formation Grandmaster ordered.
"But, it's almost finished …" Someone was surprised.
"Dismantle these formation lines and use these materials to set up a killing formation. Kill a few more Demons!"
"This time, the entire Mountain Sea Pavilion will die together and fight these Demons to the death!"
