A wave of oppressive force swept over, and screams of agony filled the air.
Seeing that the sect leaders of the various sects had arrived, the leader, having achieved his goal, immediately spoke with ill intent: "Presumably, the sect leader of the Heavenly Mystery Sect has also learned of the ordeal that Xunyi City suffered. This was all caused by the black mist. Isn't the existence of the White Dragon just for the purpose of sacrifice to quiet the black mist?"
Ten thousand years ago, there was finally some peace and quiet, but now the black mist has reappeared. The White Dragon should step forward again to withstand this calamity!
He shouted loudly, trying to make more people hear: "This is her destiny since birth. Are you all protecting her so much because you covet all the treasures of the dragon race and want to keep them for yourselves? In the face of natural disaster, the sect leader of the Heavenly Mystery Sect must not act out of personal favoritism!"
As soon as the accusation was leveled, his men quickly chimed in with a few words of agreement.
But they were all knocked out of their teeth by the sect leader's palm strike, and none of them dared to shout or yell anymore.
The sect leader of the Heavenly Mystery Sect narrowed his eyes and sneered: "Don't think I don't know what you're up to. Don't try to give us a title. Everyone knows what you're thinking. You just want to reap the benefits without lifting a finger."
Don't forget, the strength and status of the Heavenly Mystery Sect cannot be shaken by a few words, so give up on that idea now!
His words immediately caused an uproar.
The sect leaders behind him also looked at them with disdain, completely ignoring them as if they were just a bunch of clowns.
Leader: We were careless... We actually failed to fool them!
But the plan still needs to be implemented.
He wanted to launch into a tirade against the Heavenly Mystery Sect, but a chilling glare from the sect leader silenced him instantly. He could only glare angrily at the members of the Heavenly Mystery Sect before leaving with his men.
Their mission failed, but at least they received some compensation.
One of the men curled his lip in disdain and muttered resentfully, "What's so great about them? They're so arrogant and domineering. Who knows how they'll die someday."
The sect leader of the Xuanwu Sect said, "These people have shamelessly come to demand things. How interesting. Who is pulling the strings behind the scenes...?"
Chi Xing nodded in agreement: "Their behavior is too ugly. They're using the guise of sacrifice to get the White Dragon, but all they want is the Dragon Clan's treasures. They even want to force Zhou Bai to release the Little White Dragon. Tsk, do they think we're stupid?"
Those who came to probe were all scared away by the sect leader and dared not cause trouble again, so they went back to report to their leaders.
Afterwards, the entire cultivation world was once again abuzz with the topic of sacrificing the White Dragon, and everyone remembered the White Dragon's sacrifice ten thousand years ago. But no one remembered how immense that calamity was, or how tragic the White Dragon's fate was.
History is written and reshaped by the victors.
People can only see the benefits and think that sacrificing a dragon to bring peace and happiness to the world is a good thing.
This approach, which harms only one dragon but benefits countless others, allows powerful beings to also share in the spoils, making them naturally extremely happy.
When disaster struck again, many mixed-race people tried to repeat the same trick.
This time, the Heavenly Mystery Sect refused to compromise. Under immense pressure, they suppressed the absurd rumors and issued a clarification: it was impossible to hand over the White Dragon sacrifice; they could rely on themselves. If anyone tried to cause trouble again, they would be killed.
The Heavenly Mystery Sect's strength and power silenced many sects, cultivators, and hidden experts who wanted to take advantage of the situation, but they were still eager to make moves.
This incident ultimately affected the balance of the cultivation world. Many sect leaders began to hint to their disciples that they should work harder to improve their strength and strive to break through their bottlenecks as soon as possible to become true powerhouses.
This was because the sect leader of the Tianji Sect had hinted to them that a great calamity was coming, and that they should strengthen their sect's power before they arrived.
After exchanging words with the onlookers, the sect leader decided to send disciples and elders to provide assistance.
They then sent the people away to prevent them from abducting the baby dragon.
But before that, a way must be found to protect everyone; we can't keep relying on the White Dragon to take action himself every time.
She is now being watched by many people, and going there rashly could lead to trouble.
On the Tianji Sect's side, the Third Elder, a low-profile artifact cultivator, took the lead, guiding the other artifact cultivators to research how to transform Nian Wanzhou's purification abilities into magical artifacts.
Mian Wanzhou sat upright beside the Third Elder, having already demonstrated dozens of times the purification she had performed, which was the spiritual energy within her body.
However, the Third Elder still couldn't figure out how they had done it.
He tried to channel Nian Wanzhou's spiritual power into the container, but found that it could not be retained; the spiritual power quickly dissipated into spiritual energy.
He was still unaware.
It was only when Wanzhou reminded him of this that he realized what was going on.
"I see!" he exclaimed.
Nian Wanzhou smiled and squatted down. She was also very curious about how weapon crafting was done.
She knew how to refine pills: add spiritual plants, medicinal herbs, animal bones, and other ingredients, use a pill-refining furnace with spiritual fire to temper them, then use spiritual power to control the intensity of the fire, and finally, the pills would miraculously emerge.
The specific reasons are just that mysterious in the world of cultivation.
The Third Elder nodded and began to study purification seriously. Seeing their earnest expressions, Nian Yezhou couldn't help but chuckle and joined in the study as well.
She's a good student, after all!
She picked up the thing that looked like a syringe or a water cup and fiddled with it, channeling her spiritual energy into it, and it started working instantly.
But shortly after it was started, with a 'crack', the thing couldn't withstand Nian Wanzhou's spiritual power and cracked on the spot, with its parts scattered all over the ground.
Nian Wanzhou: ...So fragile.
She looked at the Third Elder apologetically: "Third Elder, this is too fragile and can't withstand my spiritual power. How about we change its shape? It can't retain spiritual power."
She offered her heartfelt advice, noting that they had been squatting there and causing trouble for five days.
Everyone was trying hard to study the magical artifacts, but they made no progress and failed every time.
More and more areas of Xunyi City are being occupied by demons, and many cultivators who went to help have also suffered heavy losses. Now everyone is racing against time to research magical artifacts that can counter the demons.
Everyone is having a headache about how to retain the Lord's spiritual power at the end of the year.
It is best to place it in the middle of a ritual implement as a filter, so that the impurities can be purified directly.
On the sixth day, the Third Elder looked up to the sky and roared, "Ahhh!! Why is it so difficult? I was just a little bit short, just a tiny bit short, why can't it work? This is infuriating!"
Nian Wanzhou was also helpless; she herself couldn't understand why it could purify, and she didn't know anything about weapon refining.
Only by combining his memories of purifying the black mist with the artifacts he had tested, and modifying them himself, could he proceed as he pleased, without causing any trouble.
What almost succeeded was a magical artifact she accidentally created – an hourglass.
"How about we go directly to Xunyi City to quell the rebellion, and then, based on the principles of purification I analyzed during the purification process, we can make changes," Nian Wanzhou ultimately suggested, believing that she could definitely find a solution once she arrived on the scene.
