Chapter 2839 Demonic Invasion!

Just as Wang Yue took control of the spirit stone mine and began using the spirit stones within to officially fill the formations in various places, a great battle between the Seven Sects and the Six Demonic Sects also broke out near Yan Family Fortress.

With the exposure of the Yan Family Fortress's demonic cult's plan, rumors of the Yan Family Fortress's allegiance to the demonic cult spread, causing widespread fear among the righteous sects. The major sects quickly gathered to discuss the situation. The result was, of course, to send troops to resist the demonic path. The two sides clashed near Yan Family Fortress, initially resulting in a stalemate. However, the Cloud Dew Demon of the Hehuan Sect unexpectedly arrived at the front lines. Seeing that they could no longer hold out, the seven sects began to retreat.

Meanwhile, those of the seven factions who were unwilling to surrender actually issued a retreat order at this time.

Unlike other sects that simply fled, Huangfeng Valley was divided into three parts by Linghu Laozu.

Some followed Linghu Laozu directly to the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, some fought desperately in Hornet Valley, and some escaped with Hong Fu.

Wang Yue finished filling the arrays in various places with the spirit stones he needed and returned to Huangfeng Valley a little late, thus becoming one of the people who stayed in Huangfeng Valley.

When Wang Yue arrived, Hong Fu and her group had already left. He watched as Linghu Laozu left Huangfeng Valley and took the lead in activating the formation. At the same time, he began to send people from the Seven Mysteries Sect to various sects to take over their property.

Just as Wang Yue activated the formation, at the border between Yue Kingdom and Yuanwu Kingdom, Li Huayuan caught up with Hong Fu and was facing the Old Demon Yunlu with her.

Neither of them was a match for Yunlu Laomo. Li Huayuan made a bet with Yunlu Laomo: if he forced Yunlu Laomo to make a move, he would let Yunlu Laomo release Hongfu. Then, without waiting for Yunlu Laomo to agree, he made his move.

However, Li Huayuan was completely unable to shake a Nascent Soul expert. Even his strongest attack was useless. He didn't want his beloved Hong Fu to fall into the hands of the Old Demon Yunlu, so he wanted to explode his core and forcibly improve his cultivation.

“No~!”

Hong Fu saw Li Huayuan's actions and immediately realized what he was trying to do. She didn't have time to stop him and could only shout loudly.

Just at this critical moment, a thin membrane slowly formed in the sky, causing Li Huayuan's internal energy to suddenly stop circulating, halting his actions of exploding his core.

As for Yunlu Old Demon, he was a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator. He sensed the change in the surrounding scenery immediately and used a teleportation technique before the formation was fully formed, bringing a group of demonic disciples to appear outside the formation.

Meanwhile, the cultivators flying in the sky, whether they were Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, or Golden Core, all fell down and crashed. Even the giant dragon summoned by Li Huayuan fell into the pool.

But at the crucial moment, the giant dragon still protected its masters, catching Li Huayuan as he fell from the sky and landing heavily in the water.

Hong Fu didn't care about anything else. Seeing that she couldn't fly over, she quickly ran over and helped Li Huayuan down from the dragon's body by the pool. She said in a very anxious tone,

"How could you be so stupid? Why did you have to detonate your core! You'll die!"

Li Huayuan was overjoyed to receive Hong Fu's concern. He grinned and said, "For you, even death would be worthwhile."

Hong Fu knew that Li Huayuan liked her before, but she had suffered trauma in her early years, so she never wanted to have a Daoist partner. But today, seeing Li Huayuan risk his life for her, she couldn't help but be moved.

"Boom~!"

The sudden loud noise immediately drew the attention of the two lovers, who then noticed the situation. Looking up, they found that there were no longer any flying figures in the sky, only the Old Demon Cloud Dew in the distant high sky.

The attack just now was a probing attack launched by the old demon Yunlu.

Unfortunately, the formation in the air only trembled slightly, and the old demon Yunlu's attack failed to penetrate it at all.

Hong Fu was overjoyed at the sight and quickly helped Li Huayuan back onto the dragon's back. The two of them were then carried away by the dragon on the water. Meanwhile, the demonic sect disciples fell from the sky, each one in great pain, and had no time to care about the two of them.

Yunlu Old Demon dared not land within the formation, but instead kept searching for the two people's location in the sky, launching continuous attacks on the formation, but all of them were blocked by the defensive shield, even when he charged up a powerful attack.

Yunlu Old Demon had no idea what was going on here. He wanted to gather the demonic forces, but he was also worried that Hong Fu, whom he had finally found, would disappear from his world again.

Shortly after the old demon Yunlu left, the disciples of the Seven Mysteries Sect rushed over and began to capture these demonic disciples.

Most cultivators don't pay attention to martial arts at all, and when they lose their magic power, they are no match for these Seven Mysteries Sect disciples.

Of course, some of them were martial arts practitioners, but the experts from the Seven Mysteries Sect who were mobilized this time were all elite disciples. With the combination of warfare and encirclement, as well as their overwhelming numerical advantage, it was easy to capture all the demonic disciples.

Wang Yue captured these demonic sect disciples for two reasons: first, to obtain the magical artifacts they possessed, and second, to obtain their cultivation techniques. However, the results were not particularly good, as the clever ones all escaped, and most of those captured were from the Ghost Spirit Sect.

Wang Yue did this because, according to the original work, the seven major sects of Yue Kingdom were actually derived from the six major sects of the Demonic Sect. As long as they controlled these disciples, they would know all the cultivation methods.

Of course, Wang Yue's next plan was to capture these demonic cultivators and then have the disciples of the Seven Mysteries Sect take over the righteous sects. These righteous sects would then become the official cultivator training bases of the Great Han Kingdom.

However, the process was very slow, but Wang Yue was not in a hurry. He only needed to keep an eye on the formation to prevent it from being destroyed.

After all, the formation had just been formed, and the old demon Yunlu's attack had already caused it to vibrate. If multiple Nascent Soul cultivators attacked at once, the spirit stones would not be enough to sustain the formation.

Just as Wang Yue was worrying, an unexpected event occurred: an ancient teleportation array suddenly shot into the sky near the mining area of ​​Yan Family Fortress. Upon seeing this array, Wang Yue was reminded of Han Li's departure from the Southern Continent, and he was somewhat astonished!
He had already quelled this battle against the demons, so why would Han Li leave?

Wang Yue immediately used the Boundless Distance technique to arrive in front of the formation, where he saw Han Li and another unfamiliar man and woman standing within it. The instant Wang Yue arrived, Han Li vanished using the formation.

Surprisingly, the isolation formation set up by Wang Yue failed to stop the teleportation formation.

Actually, it was Han Li who was lucky.

Although Wang Yue's formation could isolate spiritual energy, the location of this ancient teleportation array was inside a mine filled with spiritual energy. Therefore, the spiritual energy that was originally impossible to block was forcibly activated within this mine.

Han Li also saw Wang Yue rushing over, and he was quite taken aback. He had originally thought he would encounter those disciples of the demonic path, especially since his magic power suddenly stopped working, he thought he was trapped like a fish in a barrel.

Wang Yue witnessed Han Li's happy expression turn into regret, and he felt a little better. However, at this moment, he could not stop the formation, so he could only wave to Han Li.

Wang Yue thought to himself that after Han Li left, the bottle would be his. As he opened more and more of them, he could use them directly without having to use Han Li's replica bottle.

He went to the mine in a good mood to check, and then found that a large number of people in the mine had collapsed.

Wang Yue checked them one by one and found that they had only been drugged. He breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt a little regretful.

Wang Yue had been thinking that if Han Li really killed his men, he would have a grudge against him, and he could take action the next time they met. But now it seemed that Han Li wasn't ruthless enough, so they could still be friends.

Before Wang Yue could even rejoice, he suddenly sensed a spatial fluctuation. After sensing the source, he immediately opened his storage bag and discovered that the small green bottle inside was gone.

At the same time, Han Li, who had just arrived at the Chaotic Star Sea teleportation array, suddenly saw a bottle appear out of thin air in front of him. He stepped on it and almost slipped.

Han Li was used to living a poor life and had always had a habit of collecting things. He glanced down and, upon discovering it was a small green bottle, immediately picked it up.

"How come it looks exactly the same as the one I saw back then?"

Han Li was puzzled, so he pulled on the bottle stopper, only to find that it opened easily. He was delighted and wanted to see what was inside, but accidentally spilled the liquid from the bottle onto the ground.

The small spiritual herb on the ground suddenly grew more than a meter taller in an instant. Han Li was amazed by the sight and immediately took it to another spot to water another spiritual herb.

In the blink of an eye, under the tearful gaze, the herb grew much taller.

Han Li realized that this was probably a treasure that could cultivate spiritual herbs, so he immediately found a small island and prepared to study the bottle carefully first.

……

Wang Yue was very disappointed to lose the bottle, but before he could even feel depressed, he suddenly received an urgent message.

It turns out that when the Seven Mysteries Sect went to besiege the Spirit Beast Sect, they encountered resistance. The cultivators there were relatively easy to deal with, but the spirit beasts there were extremely difficult to handle, which made it difficult for the disciples of the Seven Mysteries Sect to break through.

Based on his observations over this period, Wang Yue was no longer certain whether the content in the novel and the television series were exactly the same. Therefore, he didn't know what secrets the Spirit Beast Sect was hiding, so Wang Yue immediately used the Boundless Distance technique to travel to Spirit Beast Mountain.

The battles at Spirit Beast Mountain remain extremely bloody. Ordinary martial arts masters struggle to deal with the monsters, as their internal energy and weapons are simply unable to break through their defenses.

Because of the protection of these demonic beasts, the people of the Qixuan Sect couldn't even break into the gate of the Spirit Beast Mountain.

When Wang Yue arrived, he happened to see a giant centipede attacking the Seven Mysteries Sect experts, causing a large number of injuries in no time.

Wang Yue knew that taming these demonic beasts would be difficult, especially since they had definitely already been tamed. So he used his familiar method, grabbing the demonic core out of the void with a single grab.

The previously frenzied demon beast immediately slumped to the ground, too weak to even attack, after its demon core was gone. The disciples of the Seven Mysteries Sect, though unsure of what had happened, quickly bound the beast with iron chains and carried it away.

The disciples inside the Spirit Beast Mountain were originally watching the show from inside the mountain gate, but they were surprised to find that the giant scorpion they had sent out had died, which made them somewhat panicked.

You should know that this giant scorpion belongs to an elder disciple of the sect, and it has the strength of a peak fourth-tier cultivator. Even the disciples who cultivate here cannot defeat it, let alone ordinary martial artists.

But now the scorpion suddenly collapsed to the ground and was clearly dying, so the disciples inside the sect hurriedly went to report to the elders.

Elder Han is a Golden Core cultivator. He can barely mobilize his true energy now, and he can only use spells with the help of spirit stones. However, the spells are not very powerful and may be useful for escaping.

He knew that something big must have happened, so he decided to hold the mountain gate and wait for the two Nascent Soul cultivators to return from the Yuling Sect.

In their view, as long as these two ancestors returned, the danger they encountered would naturally disappear. But now even a fourth-tier demon beast couldn't protect them, which made Elder Han somewhat worried.

It's important to understand that they don't have many level 4 or 5 or higher demonic beasts, so Elder Han didn't dare to release them one by one. Moreover, the Seven Mysteries Sect, a sect they had never heard of before, left Elder Han unsure of what was going on.

At that moment, the Seven Mysteries Sect launched another attack. Soon, the outer perimeter of Spirit Beast Mountain was breached, leaving only disciples guarding the mountain's protective formation, anxiously watching the outside world.

However, something seems to have happened to the mountain-protecting formation. In the past, the spirit stones were consumed very slowly, but now they are being consumed unusually quickly, as if some force is also absorbing the spiritual energy of the mountain-protecting formation.

Elder Han estimated the amount of treasure hidden in the sect and didn't know how long it could hold out. So he went to the mountain gate himself, first using his spirit beasts to drive away the disciples of the Seven Mysteries Sect in front of the gate, and then shouted loudly, "I wonder which one of you is in charge of the Seven Mysteries Sect? I wonder if we can have a proper talk? My Spirit Beast Sect has two Nascent Soul Ancestors who are not in the sect. We are also one with the Spirit Control Sect. Why don't we have a proper talk? It's better than making a deadly enemy."

Wang Yue wasn't too worried about the Nascent Soul elders, but the constant harassment from the Demonic Sect was troublesome and could affect the stability of the Han Dynasty. After all, while he didn't consider the Nascent Soul stage strength a threat, who knew if they had hidden even more powerful individuals?
Wang Yue thought he could try to fool them, so he just smiled and said, "Your Yu Ling Sect was the first to betray the alliance of the seven sects, causing heavy losses to the other six sects. How can you have the nerve to say that you haven't made a deadly enemy?"

Upon hearing this, Elder Han asked uncertainly, "Which sect do you belong to?"

Wang Yue calmly replied, "I am Wang Yue from Qingbo Cave in Huangfeng Valley! I have come here to seek revenge."

Elder Han's face darkened upon hearing this. She knew this matter couldn't be resolved peacefully, so she said sternly, "I wonder how you would persuade me to stop?"

Wang Yue said with a smile, "I can allow you to leave with 100 people and spirit beasts, but you can't take any storage bags. Consider this Spirit Beast Mountain as compensation!"

Elder Han understood perfectly well that Wang Yue had his eye on the millennia-old heritage of their Spirit Beast Mountain. He immediately said angrily, "Isn't what you're doing a bit too domineering? Even when Huangfeng Valley retreated, Ancestor Yunlu allowed you to pack your bags."

Wang Yue smiled and said, "But most of the disciples died, and I must avenge your fellow disciples."

Elder Han understood Wang Yue's meaning. Elder Linghu of Huangfeng Valley only took a few dozen disciples with him when he left, so for the sake of fairness, their Spirit Beast Mountain could only take that many as well.

Elder Han knew that if they stayed any longer, they would all die here, and there would be no way to send messages out, so he agreed immediately.

However, Elder Han remained vigilant, and she solemnly said, "It's not that I can't agree, but what if you don't keep your word?"

Wang Yue smiled and said, "Now that no one can use magic power, you have to use spirit stones to use any magic power. So as long as your spirit beasts run fast enough, they won't be left behind."

After hearing this, Elder Han agreed without much hesitation. He left with several Golden Core elders or Foundation Establishment disciples from the sect, while those who remained were all Qi Refining disciples.

The Qi Refining disciples knelt on the ground, pleading with the elders to take them along, but they were met with cold indifference. Wang Yue made no attempt to stop them; he knew that if this news got out, Elder Linghu would be in serious trouble.

After all, Spirit Beast Mountain has two Nascent Soul stage ancestors; this grudge cannot go unpunished.

However, none of that concerned Wang Yue. He arranged for people to watch the retreat of the Spirit Beast Mountain people, and then he himself went into the Spirit Beast Mountain and looked at the captured Spirit Beast Mountain disciples, saying, "You have been abandoned. Whether you live or die is up to me. Do you hate it?"

Wang Yue spoke these words with great indifference, his divine sense enveloping everyone present, wanting to see who truly wanted to surrender.

"We are willing to join the Seven Mysteries Sect, please spare our lives."

One quick-witted disciple was the first to react and immediately knelt on the ground to beg for mercy.

"We are willing to join the Seven Mysteries Sect!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, the other disciples from Spirit Beast Mountain immediately realized what was happening and knelt down as well.

Wang Yue smiled and said, "After all, you are disciples of the Tantu Sect. It's not impossible for me to take you in, but you must first place a life-or-death talisman on you. Once this talisman is placed on your body, if you betray me, you will be unable to live or die. Now, do you still want to join?"

The crowd hesitated for a long time, but finally agreed, since disagreeing now meant certain death.

Wang Yue knew they would make this choice, so I started casting the Life and Death Talismans on them one by one!
After experiencing three lifetimes, Wang Yue's Life and Death Talisman was no longer just an ordinary talisman; it now landed directly on a person's soul. With just a single thought, the betrayer would face only the death of their soul, and their entire being would perish just as quickly.

However, casting this spell was rather slow, and the disciples who had left Spirit Beast Mountain had already escaped.

Yunlu Old Demon was originally above the formation, tracking Li Huayuan and Hong Fu, but he found that the two had simply returned to Huangfeng Valley and stabilized it again. He attacked the formation several times but could not get in at all.

So he decided to go back and find some array masters to study it carefully. On his way back, he saw Elder Han and his group.

After hearing this, Old Demon Yunlu brought Elder Han to the Yuling Sect, firstly to deliver a message, and secondly to invite True Person Shattered Soul to come and observe the formation.
