As night fell, the sky was starless and a bright moon was looming among the clouds.
Suddenly, stronger winds blew past, and the clouds quickly dispersed under the influence of these winds.
A touch of deep red gradually spread from the edge of the moon to the entire moon, as if it was dyed by some mysterious power. The moon soon turned completely blood red, forming a blood moon hanging in the night sky.
"I don't know why, but I suddenly feel creepy and uneasy." The disciple of Jiuyang Temple who was guarding the mountain gate suddenly said.
"The blood moon has appeared, there must be evil spirits causing trouble, everyone should be on high alert..."
Before he could utter the word "timid", the disciple guarding the mountain gate was stabbed in the throat by a sword and died.
Dark shadows sneaked into Jiuyang Temple silently like ghosts walking in the night and killed people wantonly.
After a while, the shrill sound of the alarm broke through the night sky, and the originally quiet sect instantly became chaotic.
"Enemy attack!"
"놆 evil cultivator!"
"Everyone is small!"
"ah!!"
Screams continued to rang out one after another, and soon the Jiuyang Temple was stained red with blood.
The disciples in the temple fought desperately, but the enemies were numerous and had high levels of cultivation, so the disciples of Jiuyang Temple suffered heavy casualties.
"How dare you!" A burst of angry shouts rang out from deep inside the Jiuyang Temple.
"The ancestor has come out of retreat."
"Great, we're saved!"
The disciples cried with joy.
An old man with fluttering white beard came in the air, emitting a strong aura. He was a powerful person in the fusion stage of the Jiuyang Temple. Seeing the disciples of the sect being slaughtered, his heart was filled with anger.
"How dare you go wild in Jiuyang Temple? Die!" The old man roared, and a long sword shining with golden light appeared in his hand, and he chopped towards the evil cultivators.
However, something unexpected happened.
놙I saw an evil cultivator lightly wave his sleeves, and a black mist surged out, easily blocking the powerful attack.
"Hahahaha, you're only at the Fusion Stage, and you dare to yell in front of me."
As soon as he finished speaking, the evil cultivator attacked with lightning speed and instantly pierced the chest of the mighty man.
“Ancestor!!”
"There has never been any grudge between the Jiuyang Temple and you, so why would you kill me? You have been acting so recklessly, aren't you afraid of the wrath of the righteous immortal sects, and the possibility of joining forces to attack you?" the man asked in a sharp voice.
An evil cultivator said casually, "Don't blame us for being ruthless. It's because you chose the wrong people and helped the wrong people. Five hundred years ago, when you, the disciples of Jiuyang Temple, were in the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm, why did you help the disciples of Tianxing Sect to understand? You are suffering this disaster today, which is your own fault."
"Tianxing Zongming?"
"If I have offended you, you can go to Tianxing Sect to seek justice. Why do you want to anger Jiuyang Temple?"
"Who asked Tianxing Sect's layman to sit in the palace tomorrow? If we can't kill you, we will have to trouble you." After saying that, the evil cultivator raised his hand and made a gesture, saying gloomily: "Kill!"
"Ahhh, you evil cultivators will not die a happier death!"
The disciples of Jiuyang Observer fought hard, but still could not stop the massacre from the evil cultivators.
After an unknown amount of time, the surrounding sects heard the commotion and rushed to the rescue.
“Retreat!” Seeing the other sects coming to rescue, the evil cultivator decisively led his men to retreat.
Our mission is to stir up conflict, not to destroy the sect, otherwise we will not be able to survive.
The blood moon hanging high in the night sky slowly lost its deep red color and gradually revealed its original appearance. The cold moonlight sprinkled down, illuminating the mess on the ground in every detail.
The ground was littered with corpses, both those of evil cultivators and those of Jiuyang Temple disciples.
The blood mixed with the soil gave off a pungent smell of rust, and the bloodstains looked particularly eerie in the faint moonlight.
Those disciples who had just finished fighting and crawled back from the brink of death had expressionless faces and looked as if they were dead; they sobbed softly, their voices filled with helplessness and grief.
Former close friends, classmates, and mentors have all turned into cold corpses lying on the ground.
"Why is this happening?!"
"Xue Lin swears that I will use all my life's strength to track down those evildoers who participated in the bloodbath of Jiuyang Temple. No matter where they flee, no matter how far they are, I will completely destroy them and avenge the fellow disciples who died in Jiuyang Temple." Xue Lin's voice became louder and louder, almost a roar, "If Xue Lin breaks this oath, I am willing to be punished by heaven and earth, and my soul will be scattered and I will never be reborn!"
The disciple wiped his eyes fiercely and said bitterly: "It's better to be the Tianxing Zongming. If he hadn't been killed, the Jiuyang Temple wouldn't have ended up like this."
"Yes, why did Ming offend the evil cultivator, but we had to bear the disaster for him? Where is justice!"
"The Tianxing Sect must give us an explanation!"
"But the Tianxing Sect's layman will be in charge tomorrow, and even the evil cultivators can't do anything to them. Can you really get justice for the sect?"
The disciple who had been shouting fell silent.
There are only a few people like us left in Jiuyang Temple, and Mingwu is not the mastermind, we are just angry.
There were more sobbing sounds coming from all around.
In this despair and sorrow, the full moon hangs quietly in the sky, quietly watching everything on the ground. And the disciples of Jiuyang Temple can use the moonlight to tell their sorrow and powerlessness to the silent night sky.
The night is destined to be a bad night. The tragedy of Jiuyang Temple is not an isolated case. In this vast world of cultivation, other sects have also suffered fatal blows.
Sects all over the country seemed to be controlled by an invisible black hand, and bloody battles broke out at the same time.
Some of these sects were big, some were famous, some were low-key and secretive, but their experiences were shockingly similar: countless disciples were brutally slaughtered overnight.
These attacked sects are all intricately connected with the Tianxing Sect.
They may have been friends with Ming, or helped Ming, or explored secret places together.
With common pain and anger, these sects that were attacked by evil cultivators because of Ming decided to unite and formed an unprecedented alliance - the "Revenge Alliance".
Their goals are two, one is to take revenge on those cruel evil spirits, and the other is to attack the Tianxing Sect and ask them to bear the responsibility for this disaster.
The Tianxing Sect was still completely unaware of what was happening outside, and its internal affairs were also caught in a turmoil and chaos.
