“Rumble!”
Because the core of the Mountain Protecting Formation had problems and its defensive capabilities plummeted, many of the mountain peaks used as formation bases collapsed under the erosion of the demonic energy.
In the Million Mountains, there were naturally not only wild beasts but also some powerful demon beasts.
After being eroded by the demonic energy, their cultivation levels broke through one after another, and there were even many Saint Realm demon beasts appearing in the eerie demonic energy.
These Saint Realm demon beasts commanded demon beasts below the Saint Realm, attacking the Heavenly Profound Saber Sect's Mountain Protecting Formation in groups.
They were like venomous snakes lurking in the abyss, spitting out their forked tongues, waiting for an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to the Heavenly Profound Saber Sect.
They all knew that the treasures contained within the Heavenly Profound Saber Sect were enough to make their strength soar.
The speed of the demonic energy's spread was getting faster and faster, and it was getting closer and closer to the Heavenly Profound Saber Sect.
The people of the Heavenly Profound Saber Sect were helpless to do anything about this, because they had previously tried to stop the demonic energy, but their attacks were like paper in front of the demonic energy.
Not only could they not do anything to the demonic energy, but they were instead swallowed by the demonic energy and became its nourishment.
Many people in the Heavenly Profound Saber Sect were as anxious as ants on a hot pot at this time.
“Rumble!”
Another earth-shattering tremor occurred, and a relatively important formation base collapsed in front of their eyes, and the light enveloping the Heavenly Profound Saber Sect's Mountain Protecting Formation suddenly dimmed a bit.
“What should we do? I don’t want to die, I haven’t married yet!”
A female disciple said fearfully.
Everyone's expressions were miserable.
If they were to die in a heroic battle, they would not be afraid, but this feeling of powerlessly waiting for death made a sense of despair rise in their hearts.
“Actually, being infected by demonic energy doesn’t necessarily mean death.”
At this time, Cheng Fei, who had been silent all along, actually spoke.
“Elder Cheng, what do you mean by this? Do you want us to open the formation and go out to welcome the demonic energy?”
The young man next to Rong Bing asked with a frown.
He was the direct disciple of the Blood Drinking Saber Master, with a status equivalent to an elder, and his strength had also reached the Saint Realm, so he naturally didn't have much respect for Cheng Fei.
“That’s not what I meant!”
Cheng Fei was not annoyed, and he said, “You see those wild beasts or demon beasts that have been eroded by the demonic energy, not only have they not lost their minds, but their strength has also been enhanced, so it can be seen that the demonic energy is not as brutal as the legends say.”
That person wanted to refute Cheng Fei, but Rong Bing stopped him.
She said, “Elder Cheng is not without reason.”
“Senior Sister!”
The others looked at Rong Bing in surprise, but Rong Bing continued, “But Elder Cheng, do you know that if your soul is eroded by high-level demonic energy, although you will not lose your mind, and even your memory will not change, after being eroded, you may look no different from the human race on the surface, but in fact, you are no longer a member of the human race, but have become a member of the demon race.
Even your race has changed, isn’t that even more uncomfortable than death?”
When the others heard this, their expressions changed.
They were all members of the human race, and if the consequence of living was to abandon their identity as a member of the human race, they would rather die.
This was no longer a matter of life and death, but a matter of racial struggle.
Racial struggles have existed since ancient times.
Some people learned that the consequence of being eroded by the demonic energy was to become a member of the demon race, and the panic on their faces slowly disappeared, turning into firmness.
“Senior Sister Rong Bing is right.
I was born as a member of the human race, and I will die as a ghost of the human race.
I am proud of my identity as a human, and I have never thought of abandoning my identity as a human in order to become stronger or to survive.
If there is no other way, I would rather die.
Eighteen years later, I will be a good man again!”
“That’s right, isn’t it just death?
Since ancient times, who has not died?
Let me accept the erosion of the demonic energy, dream on!”
“What a saying, since ancient times, who has not died, not bad, not bad.
But it’s not time to despair yet, don’t think about death!”
At this time, Yu Hua, dressed in white, appeared in the sky.
“It’s Senior Brother Yu Hua!”
“We have seen Senior Brother Yu Hua!”
When everyone saw Yu Hua, they couldn't help but be infected by his temperament.
The people who were still a little flustered now became extremely calm.
“Senior Brother Yu Hua, you’ve become stronger again!”
Lu Chengfeng said.
“How strong, stronger than Sister Lu?” Gu Huaiyu couldn’t see Yu Hua’s strength, so she couldn’t help but ask.
Lu Chengfeng smiled bitterly and said, “Girl, do you think you broke through to the Saint Realm faster than Senior Brother Yu Hua?”
“Yes, didn’t they say that he was more than 1,300 years old when he broke through to the Saint Realm?
I’m only a little over 1,000 years old now!” Gu Huaiyu said a little proudly.
Lu Chengfeng said, “Then if I tell you that Senior Brother Yu Hua was less than 300 years old when he broke through to the Saint Realm, would you believe it?”
“Less than 300 years old, how is that possible?”
Gu Huaiyu shook her head repeatedly.
To become a Saint before the age of 300 would be even more terrifying than those Great Emperors and Ancient Sovereigns in the mortal world.
“Senior Sister is telling the truth.”
Yu Shui said from the side, “To be precise, Senior Brother Yu Hua was only 256 years old when he broke through to the Saint Realm.”
“Then… then why do the rumors say that he was more than 1,300 years old when he broke through to the Saint Realm?”
Gu Huaiyu asked in confusion.
“Because a big tree attracts the wind!”
Lu Chengfeng said.
Gu Huaiyu understood instantly.
A tree that stands out in the forest will be blown down by the wind!
The Heavenly Profound Saber Sect was, after all, just a third-rate small force in the Ziyang Great World.
There were countless forces that could crush the Heavenly Profound Saber Sect.
To become a Saint before the age of 300 would definitely attract jealousy if it were spread out.
The sect changed the time of Yu Hua’s sanctification to more than 1,300 years old, which was a protection for Yu Hua.
To become a Saint at more than 1,300 years old was naturally also very talented, but it was not a rare existence.
As the direct disciple of the Heavenly Profound Supreme and the next candidate for the position of Sect Master of the Heavenly Profound Saber Sect, this time was just right.
Gu Huaiyu looked at Yu Hua.
She didn’t expect that this man, who always seemed calm and collected, would be so talented.
Yu Hua, this name, was originally meant to ascend to immortality, no wonder he dared to call himself Yu Hua!
At the same time, Gu Huaiyu also experienced Yu Hua’s influence in the sect.
His appearance alone, with just a word, controlled the situation.
This kind of person had a natural charm that made people trust him.
“Senior Brother Yu Hua, do you have any solutions?”
Rong Bing came to Yu Hua, her eyes full of admiration.
Yu Hua said, “The traitor is the Law Enforcement Elder, who has already been brought to justice.
The core of the formation is being maintained.
What we need to do now is to repair the formation bases on the periphery of the formation.
When the core of the formation is repaired, we can resist the erosion of the demonic energy.”
“However, the Mountain Protecting Formation is not enough to resist this high-level demonic energy, it can only delay it for a while.
To solve the demonic energy, we must find the source of the demonic energy.”
When everyone heard that the traitor was the Law Enforcement Elder, their expressions changed slightly, especially Rong Bing.
The Law Enforcement Hall was under the temporary control of the Blood Drinking Saber Master, and the Blood Drinking Peak could not escape the blame for the Law Enforcement Elder being a traitor.
Yu Hua smiled and said, “This has nothing to do with your Blood Drinking Peak.
If you want to blame someone, blame the people who didn’t cut the weeds and eliminate the roots in the first place!”
The others didn’t know what Yu Hua meant by this, but Yu Hua didn’t explain much.
He waved his hand and took out a cyan battle flag.
On the cloud, Gu Changsheng looked surprised.
Yun Shuang on the side asked curiously, “Senior knows this flag?”
Gu Changsheng nodded and said, “This flag is called the Azure Lotus Precious Color Flag, which is transformed from the origin of the five elements of wood.
It has the effect of calming the mind, repelling all evils, and purifying evil energy.
It’s just that this Azure Lotus Precious Color Flag is damaged, otherwise purifying this demonic energy would be easy.”
“Then it seems that this young man named Yu Hua has a great background!”
Yun Shuang said.
“No matter how big your background is, it’s not as big as yours!”
Gu Changsheng glanced at her.
Yun Shuang just smiled and didn’t reply.
The Demon Emperor’s only daughter in the Demon World, this background is unique in the heavens and myriad worlds.
After taking out the Azure Lotus Precious Color Flag, Yu Hua said, “This flag can temporarily push the demonic energy back to the periphery of the formation, but it can only last for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
During this time, you need to repair the formation bases as soon as possible.”
“We understand!”
Everyone said one after another.
So the elders of each mountain peak who understood formations led their respective disciples to the destroyed formation bases to carry out repair operations, and Lu Chengfeng also led Yu Shui and Gu Huaiyu to participate in the formation base repair operations.
“Elder Cheng, aren’t you going?”
Someone asked Cheng Fei.
Cheng Fei smiled bitterly and said, “This old man doesn’t understand formations, so I won’t make trouble.
I’ll just stay here and guard Yu Hua.
He needs to maintain the magic weapon, and he can’t do without someone to protect him.”
“Then we’ll leave Senior Brother Yu Hua in Elder Cheng’s care!”
“It’s easy to say, it’s easy to say, we’re all part of the sect, just doing our duty!”
Cheng Fei said with a simple and honest face.
On the cloud, Yun Shuang looked at Cheng Fei and said, “This person has the appearance of a wolf looking back, he must be up to no good.”
“A clown, no need to pay attention to him, come with me, you can use your identity as a Demon World princess.”
After saying that, Gu Changsheng left the Heavenly Profound Saber Sect with Yun Shuang and came to a secret realm millions of miles away from the Heavenly Profound Saber Sect.
This secret realm was now completely filled with demonic energy, and there were many powerful demon creatures in the secret realm, even True Immortals were not rare.
This was the secret realm that appeared in the Heavenly Profound Small Dao Domain five hundred years ago, and it was also the source of the demonic energy on the periphery of the Heavenly Profound Saber Sect.
“This place has completely become a demonic domain!”
Yun Shuang felt the aura around her body, as if she had returned to her most familiar Demon World.
…
