There is no time in the higher-dimensional universe. In the blink of an eye, another fifty years have passed.

Over the past fifty years, Lingxiao Palace and the Allied Forces have experienced a period of calm. Apart from some verbal disputes, the two sides have not made any major moves.

However, under this calm, the cultivators in Yunjiang Territory sensed something unusual. Over the years, the Alliance Army had sent reinforcements to Yunjiang Territory again and again. Everyone could understand it at the beginning. After all, the Alliance had captured Yunjiang Territory to avoid a counterattack from Lingxiao Palace, so it was understandable to send reinforcements to defend the region.

But after repeated reinforcements, the Alliance has already stationed 10 billion soldiers in Yunjiang Territory. You have to know that this is just a large territory! The total number of cultivators in the entire Yunjiang Territory is only 10 trillion, and 99.99% of them are cultivators who have not yet attained enlightenment. The 10 billion soldiers on the Alliance Army's side are all cultivators who have attained enlightenment. Not only that, even the remaining 0.001% of cultivators who have attained enlightenment in Yunjiang Territory have all been incorporated into the Alliance Army and are called the Auxiliary Army. In other words, the Alliance Army's official army and the Auxiliary Army have reached a terrifying 11 billion. A small Yunjiang Territory needs such a heavy army to defend it?

Of course it's impossible. It's obvious that the alliance is preparing to cause trouble! How can the monks of Yunjiang Domain not panic when they are in the center of the storm?

Recently, a shocking rumor has been circulating in the large domains under the control of Lingxiao Domain. It is that Jiang Yuer, the master of Lingxiao Palace, is just a puppet. The person who really controls Lingxiao Palace behind her is actually a heretic demon! The Alliance Army is organized by the six major forces to eliminate this heretic demon.

As soon as this theory came out, it instantly exploded in all the branches of Lingxiao Palace! Yes, Jiang Yuer was the first elected Palace Master of Lingxiao Palace. It was agreed that each Palace Master could only serve for 100,000 years, but more than 200,000 years have passed, and Jiang Yuer is still sitting in the position of Palace Master! Isn't this a monopoly? She is a Hongmeng 1st level cultivator. Who would believe that there is no one to support her?

Of course, there are also staunch supporters of Lingxiao Palace who refuted this argument. As the first palace master of Lingxiao, Jiang Yuer, under her leadership, Lingxiao Palace expanded rapidly at an unimaginable speed. In just tens of thousands of years, it has swept across nearly half of the Qiongzu Universe and spread across 300 major domains of the Qiongzu Universe. Under such rapid development, if the power transition of Lingxiao Palace is easily carried out, it will easily cause civil strife, and the Lingxiao Palace, which has been developed with great difficulty, may very likely collapse.

Later, Lingxiao Palace had almost digested all 300 large domains with great difficulty. Just as Lingxiao Palace was about to enter a stable period, other forces in the Qiongzu Universe, led by the six major forces, began to make trouble. Lingxiao Palace entered a state of combat readiness. In this case, can Lingxiao Palace change its Palace Master?

It can be said that the reason why Jiang Yuer was re-elected as the hall master for several consecutive terms was that it was a helpless choice due to extraordinary times.

Besides, Jiang Yuer was born in the Jiang family and was once the leader of the younger generation of the Jiang family. She has a good family background. How could she possibly get involved with heretics and evil spirits?

If Jiang Yu'er was controlled by the heretic demon, what about Yao Xiuqi and others who joined the Lingxiao Palace at the same time as her and participated in the Qiongzu Young Monks Exchange Conference? This group of people can be said to be the outstanding young monks in the entire Qiongzu universe, each of them has an extraordinary background and outstanding talents.

Are these people also controlled by heretical evil spirits? What a joke!

Aren't the so-called allies also from the same lineage as these people? If you say these people are controlled by heretics and evil spirits, why don't you say that the allies were created by heretics and evil spirits?

After all, when Lingxiao Palace was developing step by step, the ancestors of the six major forces tacitly approved of it. And this time when your allied forces are conquering Lingxiao Palace, has any of the ancestors of the six major forces come out to support it?

If there really was a heretic demon controlling the Lingxiao Palace, the ancestors of the six major forces would have come out and killed it at the first opportunity, and would not have allowed it to develop to this point today.

In response to this, many monks nodded silently. In their impression, heretics and evil demons always hid in dark corners like rats. Once they showed up, they would be killed by the six major forces. They were not as high-profile as Lingxiao Palace.

Historical experience tells them that heresy and evil can never grow into a force to be reckoned with, and every time they are strangled in the cradle by the six major forces. Isn't it a huge joke to say that heresy and evil are behind Lingxiao Palace?

Before long, the rumor that "there are heretics and evil spirits behind Lingxiao Palace" was suppressed. Although it was still spreading in a small area, it was obvious that it could no longer cause any waves.

It seems like this is just a simple disturbance, but in fact it is because Li Mu owns Lingxiao Jianmu. All the official members of Lingxiao Palace are cultivators who have attained enlightenment in Lingxiao Jianmu. They are absolutely loyal to Li Mu. With their guidance of public opinion and secret arrests of a large number of rumor spreaders, this conspiracy of the alliance is likely to bring considerable trouble to Lingxiao Palace, and it is very likely that the 300 major domains will be in chaos.

However, Li Mu had already been prepared for these. After more than 200,000 years of rule, the elites in these 299 domains had long been absorbed by him into the Lingxiao Universe to prove their truth. The rest were either of ordinary qualifications or mediocre cultivation, or had problems with their natures. Even if they were thrown away, it would not have much impact on him.

But it would be best if they could be preserved. No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. How can we let the six major forces get away with it?

…………

On the allied side, Ji Youming was furious when he learned that his plan had failed!

"Heresy demons, they are all heretics and demons!"

Ji Youming didn't understand. Lingxiao Palace was just an organization that had been established for more than 200,000 years. How could it have brainwashed its members so thoroughly? Although the remarks he spread were just nonsense, they made sense if you thought about it carefully. Not to mention that it would cause Lingxiao Palace to split, it should at least raise some doubts and cause Lingxiao Palace to fall into civil strife, right?

How could the High Heaven Palace just brush it off so lightly? As the people of the Qiongzu Universe, even if there is a slight possibility that the Palace Master of the High Heaven Palace is a heretic, they should put the Qiongzu Universe first and take it as their responsibility to eradicate the heretics. However, those people of the High Heaven Palace were fooled just like that, especially those who defended this matter. If they are not heretics, what else could they be?

"Commander, things have come to this point. Since soft tactics don't work, let's use hard tactics. The Lingxiao Palace is nothing but a bunch of chickens and dogs. They can be destroyed with ease!" suggested a marshal.

"Pass the order and let Miao Hongyuan's troops take action! In this battle, I will seize the three major areas of Lingxiao Palace in a row!" Ji Youming said in a deep voice.

His failed plan made him lose face, and he wanted to win it back on the battlefield!
