"What should we do, Lord Zhu You? The enemy is coming with great force and is targeting Tiger Roar Peak. Should we fight or not?"
"We've already made some concessions and given her Luming Mountain as an apology, but she's still greedy and wants to continue expanding her influence. Does she really think there's no one in my demon sect?"
"Lord Zhu You, we can't give in any further!"
All the peak leaders were filled with indignation and were eager to go into battle, but Zhu You took a deep breath and suddenly shouted.
“That’s enough!”
He clenched his fists, suppressed the humiliation in his heart, and gave orders to the token in his hand.
"Give her Tiger Roar Peak and retreat to Big Turtle Mountain!"
"Lord Zhuyou..."
The leader of Tiger Roar Peak was about to persuade them again, but he heard Zhu You's cold voice, "Don't you even listen to me?"
“…Yes, sir.”
The leader of Tiger Roar Peak suppressed his resentment and led all the disciples on the mountain, along with a group of disciples from Deer Singing Mountain, to retreat back to Big Turtle Mountain in frustration.
As soon as the demon Taoist people retreated, Meng Wan led his men to occupy Tiger Roar Peak.
After leaving behind some disciples to take over Tiger Roar Peak, Meng Wan continued to lead the main force and chase towards Dayui Mountain.
Zhu You, who was closely following Meng Wan's movements, learned the news almost immediately.
"Meng Wan! You're going too far!"
Zhu You was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He had already taken the initiative to cede the two hills, Luming Mountain and Huxiao Peak, to her, but she still refused to give up!
This is intolerable!
Zhu You had no time to heal his wounds. He rushed out from his retreat in anger, activated the skills of the Flowing Light Butterfly, and rushed towards Dagui Mountain.
In front of the Big Turtle Mountain, Meng Wan stood with his hands behind his back, staring coldly at the heavily guarded Big Turtle Mountain ahead.
The mountain wind rustled, blowing her clothes up and down.
Behind him, Ni Peilan, Xie Guangyi and other peak masters stood solemnly.
Behind them was a mass of blood-stained disciples, their momentum as strong as a rainbow.
Zhu You stood on the Big Turtle Mountain, looking at Meng Wan and other disciples of the Blood Dao School with a dark face.
He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and confronted Meng Wan and others in the air.
"Meng Wan! You've taken over my Luming Mountain and Huxiao Peak. I've already retreated this far, what else do you want?!"
Meng Wan curled her lips and looked at him with a smile.
"Zhu You, you killed so many of my disciples on Blood Goose Mountain. Now I only take back two peaks. Isn't that too easy for you?"
Zhu You's expression changed slightly, "You are simply making up stories!"
Meng Wan ignored him and directly ordered an attack.
“Wait!”
Zhu You took a step forward and said threateningly, "Meng Wan, I advise you to quit while you're ahead.
Although I was defeated, I am not the only quasi-saint in my demon sect. You are so greedy that it really makes me angry. I have no choice but to ask for some helpers to come and help me! "
Meng Wan narrowed her eyes slightly, "Are you threatening me?"
"I'm warning you!"
Zhu You looked at Meng Wan coldly, "I was the one who provoked you first. I admit my inferiority.
I have already offered you Luming Mountain and Huxiao Peak. If you continue to push your luck, I won't have to worry about my dignity anymore!"
Upon hearing this, several peak masters following Meng Wan began to persuade her, with a hint of worry in their words.
"Yes, sir, we have captured Luming Mountain and Huxiao Peak without bloodshed. Let's call it a day."
"If Zhu You is really provoked, he will not hesitate to hire a few quasi-saints from the demon sect to help him, and we might even lose all the benefits we have gained."
Meng Wan's expression finally relaxed a little after hearing this.
"It's not impossible for me to stop, but I have some conditions."
Zhu You breathed a sigh of relief, but her face was still tense. "What are your conditions? Tell me."
Meng Wan nodded slightly, signaling everyone to stop attacking.
Then, she threw out an exquisite flying boat, which slowly rose into the air and stopped above the Big Turtle Mountain, motioning Zhu You to get on the flying boat for a chat.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhu You followed Meng Wan into the flying boat.
The two sat opposite each other in the cabin of the flying boat, and the atmosphere was a little solemn.
"Fellow Daoist Zhu, there's no need to be so nervous. I don't actually have any excessive demands."
Meng Wan smiled slightly and spoke casually.
"I'm very interested in your demonic cultivation techniques. If you give me a copy of your cultivation techniques, I can stop and promise not to invade the territory under your jurisdiction again."
When Zhu You heard this, his face changed. She even asked for his martial arts technique directly. Isn’t this too much?
He said in a deep voice, "Meng Wan, don't go too far! Cultivation techniques are the foundation of every cultivator's life. How can you show them to others so easily?"
Meng Wan chuckled, "Brother Daoist Zhu, do you mean there's nothing more to talk about?
From what I understand, you want to ask other quasi-saints to help you, but the price is not low, and all I want is a cultivation method. Are you really ready to fight to the death?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu You's expression became uncertain.
If you are asking other quasi-saints of the demon sect to take action, or if you are dealing with masters of the same level, you must offer benefits that are impressive enough.
After he lost four demon lives, his strength was almost wasted and he was no longer of any help in a battle of this magnitude.
Therefore, if you want to deal with Meng Wan, you have to pay the price of at least two mountains and invite two quasi-saints!
Zhu You was silent for a long time, and finally chose to compromise.
"I don't have any skills."
Zhu You said in a low voice, "Ordinary skills have too many drawbacks. The best skills of the demonic path all come from holy places. If you want to learn, you can only go to the holy place in person to comprehend it."
Meng Wan frowned slightly, and only spoke after communicating with the Heart-Eating Bug and finding that Zhu You was not lying.
"As a cultivator of the Blood Path, is there any way for me to enter the Demon Path Holy Land?"
Zhu You cooperated and said, "The seven sacred places are very lenient towards disciples who practice their own sects. As long as they pay spirit stones, they can enter.
However, the requirements for disciples practicing other sects are very harsh, and they need to pass the tests set by the holy land before they can enter."
Meng Wan raised her eyebrows. She had been building her foundation for too short a time, and this was the first time she had heard of something like this.
She couldn't help but feel a little interested. "What kind of tests are there in the Holy Land? Please tell me in detail."
Zhu You's face was solemn. "The test in the Holy Land is extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, your soul will be damaged, or even your body will die. I advise Fellow Daoist Meng not to try it lightly."
Meng Wan chuckled. "Whether you want to try it or not is naturally up to me. You just need to tell me the truth about what you know."
Zhu You hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke.
"The tests in each holy land are different, but they are all related to the characteristics of the cultivation methods of that sect. The holy land test of our demon sect is called 'Illusionary Demon Realm'.
Once a cultivator enters it, he will lose most of his abilities as a cultivator and be forced to face various illusions and tests as a monster. If he is not careful, he may die, or even..."
He paused, and said in a low voice, "Several powerful people at the level of Quasi-Saint Sons have perished there."
