Just when everyone thought things had taken a turn for the better, Liu Rong sighed with a bitter smile and said, "Yes, there is still hope for redemption... because according to what we learned from interrogating that Ghost Spirit Sect disciple, Brother Liao's soul has something extraordinary about it. Like Cai'er, it possesses a special Yin attribute talent. Not only was it not refined by that old ancestor of the Ghost Spirit Sect, but it was also refined and seems to have transformed into something like a Ghost Banner General..."
"Although we don't know the specific details, there's still a glimmer of hope, but..."
Liu Rong didn't finish her sentence, but anyone could tell how difficult it was.
Lin Xiuyuan was surprised to hear such news, and his excitement deepened.
But he quickly calmed down.
Just as Liu Rong left off.
This matter involves a local patriarch, who achieved the Nascent Soul stage more than two hundred years ago.
They might all become powerful figures in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm by now.
Even though Lin Xiuyuan felt that his cheat ability was heaven-defying, he didn't know if he could eventually reach such a level.
It's practically an insurmountable mountain.
As Liu Rong said, it's just a sliver of hope!
Lin Xiuyuan shook his head helplessly and said, "When you get back, please ask Fellow Daoist Liu to tell Cai'er that this matter is not urgent. Let's wait until we have more power and then discuss it carefully. We may not be able to please her, but there is still a glimmer of hope. Please don't act rashly!"
Liu Rong nodded and said, "I understand, and I told Fellow Daoist Liao this morning, but in the end, I still couldn't stop her from attacking that elite disciple of the Ghost Spirit Sect... Fortunately, that was a secret realm training exercise, and although there were few casualties, it was not an exception. It's just that Fellow Daoist Liao was a bit too hasty at the time and was noticed by others, otherwise Fellow Daoist Liao would probably have received more than just confinement as punishment."
After some deliberation, Lin Xiuyuan had no more doubts, so he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your conversation with me, Fellow Daoist Liu. Due to my position, I will not attack you, but I ask you to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, this place will be a bloodbath. If you know anyone here, you can let me know, and I will secretly let them go."
“Not really. We demonic cultivators are selfish and self-serving. Even our lineage leaders have their own calculations. What kind of affection could I possibly have with them?” Liu Rong sighed as he spoke. “The only ones I have some connection with are our old friends from before we truly entered the world of cultivation.”
now.
As more and more cultivators from the Cloud Soaring Sect charged into the formation, two square formations were formed.
One is to cooperate with the cultivators of the Purple Mansion to resist the power of the great formation.
One side has already directly resisted and fought against the demonic cultivators.
The tide has turned!
Upon seeing this scene, Liu Rong did not hesitate. Although he had his own stance, he knew that continuing to struggle in this situation would only lead to the annihilation of the entire army.
Originally, I still felt there was a glimmer of hope.
Waiting for reinforcements to arrive, forming a pincer movement, might allow them to outflank the enemy and reverse the situation.
But after hearing Lin Xiuyuan's words and his comprehensive planning, Liu Rong realized that they had no chance of winning against Lin Xiuyuan's elaborate schemes.
If their strength were sufficient, there would still be hope. But now, after a series of battles, they have suffered defeats and countless demonic cultivators have died or been wounded, making them no longer as powerful as the Cloud Soaring Sect.
This made Wu Xingteng even more hesitant and afraid to directly charge forward to provide support, lest there be ambushes along the way. In the end, he could only be hindered by numerous formations.
Faced with such a scheme and calculation, so-called hope is nothing more than a dead end where one sinks deeper and deeper.
Liu Rong was decisive. After figuring this out, and seeing the situation had come to this, with the Yunxiao Sect gradually turning the tide in the array world, he decisively issued the order to retreat, abandoning the Huangsha mine.
Lin Xiuyuan did not order his men to pursue, thus allowing the victory to be expanded.
Firstly, Liu Rong was among them, and secondly, the main force of the demonic path could arrive at any time.
They immediately took over the area and began setting up defenses.
They seized the opportunity to acquire four resource-rich areas, gradually turning them into the first line of defense in preparation for the arrival of the demonic army.
That will be the real test.
It concerns whether or not the interests of the Lingyan Mountains can be stabilized!
After arranging for the wounded and a group of disciples to take over the defenses here, Lin Xiuyuan immediately led most of his men back to prevent the main force of the demonic path from going to another route and catching Zhong Kangshun's army off guard.
but.
According to the plan, there should be no major concerns.
Wu Xingteng's army no longer dared to confront him head-on!
This hasty move was primarily aimed at successfully taking over places like Tiefenglin and Shakuanglingdi, establishing a defensive line, and making foolproof preparations for the upcoming situation.
