As the Qibao Xuanyuan secret realm is about to open, undercurrents are also surging in the world of cultivation.
The monks from Shushan and Penglai began to gather secretly in the direction of the Far North Pillar of Heaven.
Wei Dongliu also received responses from many elders one after another.
What everyone is more worried about is how many people are willing to take part in this action - what if there are only two or three kittens mixed in with the evil cult's team? Wouldn't they become a thorn in the eyes of the orthodox cult and be hung up and beaten as a warning to others?
Wei Dongliu is well aware of the cautious mentality of these fence-sitters, so no matter who comes to ask, the answer is "Most people have come, it's up to you to come or not."
After receiving this reply, most of the Nascent Soul cultivators fell silent, as if they had lost interest.
As a result, when Fan Sheng Dao set out, the number of cultivators from various large, medium and small sects who joined along the way was much greater than originally expected.
I guess that's human nature: if you are extremely eager, the other party will try to control you; but if you don't care at all, the other party may be more likely to make up their mind.
After arranging many monks from neutral sects into the lineup, Wei Dongliu led an increasingly large group of monks and marched to the vicinity of the Far North Sky Pillar in a mighty manner.
When the patrolling monks arranged by the Three Purities encountered such a large group of people, they quickly sent a letter to the rear via flying sword to report the news.
"The leader of the Fansheng Dao sect, along with all the heroes in the world, has come to pay a visit to the Three Pure Ones!" Wei Dongliu said loudly, and shot out another flying sword with the corresponding letter attached to it.
The letter was quickly picked up by a patrolling monk and then delivered to the hands of the three sects' leaders.
In the letter, Wei Dongliu sincerely proposed to "put aside disputes and jointly develop" with the Three Pure Ones of the Orthodox Church.
The Qibao Xuanyuan Secret Realm belongs to all human beings in the world of cultivation. It opposes individual sects from arbitrarily using hegemony to monopolize the most precious wealth of all mankind.
After reading the letter from beginning to end, Sect Leader Ziwei had a blank expression on his face, Su Jian sneered, and Sect Leader Xuandu sighed secretly.
Since the other side had brought too many monks from neutral sects, Penglai was absolutely unwilling to confront them head-on. Otherwise, even if the Three Pure Ones of the Orthodox Church won a great victory, almost all the customers would be offended.
It would be better to let them enter the secret realm and let them fight on their own abilities.
Of course, this cannot be said openly, otherwise Shushan would just say "In that case, let's give the Yuqing Temple quota to them" to embarrass Penglai.
Therefore, the Xuandu Sect Master used the delaying method very skillfully:
"The Demon Cult is so powerful, and there are many monks from other sects among them. It is very far-reaching, so it is not easy to start a war rashly. We need to carefully identify them."
Su Jian simply sneered at this: How to identify?
They are all standing in the Demon Cult's team. Do we have to identify them one by one and pull them out before the battle in Penglai starts?
Although he disliked politics, he was not stupid. He knew that Penglai was implicitly expressing his unwillingness to fight, so he asked coldly:
"What does Kunlun mean?"
Master Ziwei glanced at him and did not answer for the time being.
The reason for not answering is simple: the situation in Kunlun is more complicated. It is not as deeply involved with many sects as Penglai, but it is not as reckless as Shushan.
Well, I should go back and ask Chang Geng what this precious disciple thinks.
A few days later, just as history said, Qiu Changtian accurately "saw through" that Wei Dongliu had no control over these dispatched monks, so it was impossible for both parties to reach a consensus and limit the number of trial places - everyone rushed into the secret realm in large numbers, this matter could no longer be avoided!
Wei Dongliu naturally "saw through" the opponent's actions and did not wait for the Orthodox Church to give any response. Instead, when the secret realm was about to open, he led the team directly forward.
The two sides soon engaged in battle outside the Far North Pillar. It didn't take long for the Orthodox Church to be at a disadvantage.
The reason was simple: in order to rush into the Qibao Xuanyuan secret realm as quickly as possible, most of the Yuanying elders of the orthodox sect were rushing towards the entrance of the secret realm, leaving only a small number of people to stop the evil sect.
As the Demon Cult was temporarily unable to approach the secret realm, everyone was attacking the Orthodox Cult's defense line fiercely, so that the Orthodox Cult elders soon could not hold on, and they fought and retreated, eventually being defeated.
After the orthodox defense line collapsed quickly, the foreign monks who were mixed in with the demon sect also swarmed towards the entrance of the secret realm.
The Six Paths were not so anxious. In order to prevent the Three Pure Ones from taking advantage of their first-mover advantage and hiding in the secret realm to ambush them, they asked the monks to form teams and enter the Seven Treasures Mysterious Garden secret realm.
Wei Dongliu, as the commander-in-chief of the Six Paths, flew slowly towards the golden light on his sword only after most of the elders of the Mortal Path had entered.
As he stepped into the Qibao Xuanyuan secret realm, he appeared on the sea surface while the world was spinning.
Similar to Qiu Changtian's start, Wei Dongliu at this time also had a small boat magic weapon under his feet, drifting in the turbulent storm.
The shadow of an old man appeared on the boat and gave the opening remarks that he had already given four times. He briefly introduced the rules of this secret realm trial and the conditions for the final victory, without raising any questions about Wei Dongliu's identity.
Wei Dongliu thought for a moment and suddenly asked:
"Does the Nine Netherworld and Hell exist in this secret realm?"
"Yes." The old man replied coldly, "But this world simulates a catastrophe that will destroy the world."
"The Yellow Springs lacks order to begin with, and the environment inside is much worse than outside. If you wish to go, that's up to you."
"Thank you." Wei Dongliu bowed and watched the old man's shadow disappear.
Then he began to think patiently.
As far as he could remember, there were two entrances to the earth veins.
One was in a mine, where he went down with Jiang Li'an; the other was in the Dragon Prison Well, where the trapped old dragon blocked it with his lower body.
Considering the issue of timeliness, the latter is obviously more likely to have existed in ancient times.
Now that Wei Dongliu has been promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, with the effect of the "Chaos Demon Body", he can resist the erosion of the Nine Netherworld and dive into the depths of hell to conduct exploration.
If this were done in the real world, it would definitely attract the attention and even vigilance of the hell realm.
However, there is no hell monitoring the Nine Netherworld in the secret trial realm, so it is a perfect training ground for familiarizing oneself with the subsequent crime scenes.
Wei Dongliu dived deep into the seabed, and relying on his general memory and the positioning of the Kunlun Mirror, he flew on his sword towards the northern Central Plains of Shenzhou.
Along the way, we naturally encountered countless turbulence, and there were many dangerous situations, and we were almost swept into the burning stars.
However, thanks to his extremely quick reaction teleportation, Wei Dongliu was able to escape just in time every time and then continue to head north.
