Chapter 87: Crisis Strikes

On the main peak of the Xuan Yin Sect, within a massive graveyard.

"Although you were able to deceive the observation of Foundation Building cultivators and the return sect detection of the Azure Cloud Sect by using the Blood God Parasitic Technique, you cannot hide from the detection of Gold Core cultivators!"

"In addition, with the recent abnormality in the Fallen Land, the Azure Cloud Sect will become even more vigilant. Although we parasitize only the lower-level disciples, their numbers are not small. It's hard to say they won't come face to face with the Gold Cores of the Azure Cloud Sect."

In the gloomy graveyard, a chilling voice echoed in the air. The Tai Yin Perfected Being stared coldly at the Blood Shadow, a trace of fear flashing in their eyes.

The Blood Shadow before them not only possessed Gold Core strength, but also had a vast force behind them that the Tai Yin Perfected Being had never heard of.

Although they were unclear about the origin of the Blood Shadow, the Tai Yin Perfected Being was certain that they were definitely not from the Lingnan region, but from the outside world.

After all, a person's height of six feet is hard to conceal, especially for cultivators who rely heavily on spiritual resources.

In the entire Lingnan Immortal Cultivation World, there are only two Rank Three spiritual veins, which belong to the Azure Cloud Sect and the Xuan Yin Sect respectively.

As for the East Sea Independent Cultivator Alliance, they rely on more than ten Rank Two spiritual veins and a spiritual land to barely supply two or three Gold Core cultivators.

From this, it can be seen that the resources in Lingnan are scarce, and supplying the three major forces is already at its limit. It is simply impossible to support another Gold Core force.

Therefore, the other party must be from outside.

And the first time they appeared, they took the initiative to come and cooperate with the Tai Yin Perfected Being.

Originally, the Tai Yin Perfected Being was wary and suspicious of this, as the internal struggles among demonic cultivators are even more serious than those between righteous and demonic cultivators. So the sudden offer of cooperation from the other party was likely a trap.

But unfortunately, the overall strength of the Azure Cloud Sect has been growing stronger, with the Qingyang Perfected Being not only younger than him, but also stronger in power, and with a much higher chance of reaching Nascent Soul.

Helpless, the Tai Yin Perfected Being had no choice but to agree to the cooperation.

This new demonic force that appeared was completely unfamiliar to the Xuan Yin Sect, as well as to the Azure Cloud Sect.

Especially the latter, who only had vague knowledge of it, but no concrete information, and naturally had no corresponding means of control.

So they devised a plan to use the hidden hand of the Xuan Yin Sect in the territory of the Azure Cloud Sect to lure out a large number of lower-level disciples, who would then be parasitized by the Blood Shadow's forces.

Due to the fact that the Azure Cloud Sect's defense and detection methods mainly targeted the Xuan Yin Sect, coupled with the strangeness of the Blood God Parasitic Technique, when they used their secret technique to parasitize the lower-level disciples, the Azure Cloud Sect did not detect any abnormalities.

As the plan was implemented, those disciples who returned to the sect became not only puppets under their control, but also brought a large number of Rank Two spiritual talismans and Yin Corpse Ghosts from the Xuan Yin Sect into the Azure Cloud Sect.

Originally, according to the Tai Yin Perfected Being's plan, this should have been used as a surprise attack during a war.

However, the changes in the Fallen Land of the Soul Formation and the competition for the "Enlightenment Stones" inside made him realize that instead of considering it later, it would be better to act now and eliminate the potential war power of the Azure Cloud Sect by killing the younger generation.

The Blood Shadow on the other side also thought the same.

"Hehe! In that case, let's start early!" the Blood Shadow chuckled.

"Launching an attack within the Azure Cloud Sect, killing their disciples, is not a simple matter," the Tai Yin Perfected Being said coldly.

"But when the bow is drawn, it must be released! On the contrary, I think now is the best time. Qingyang is being restrained in the Fallen Land of the Soul Formation, Jian Xuan has already left the sect due to the Jiangcheng incident, and the remaining Changqing Old Ghost was recently severely injured by you. The Azure Cloud Sect is currently weak on the outside but strong on the inside, which is the best opportunity!" the Blood Shadow said.

"Oh?" The Tai Yin Perfected Being narrowed their eyes and probed, "If that's the case, why don't our two families join forces and launch a surprise attack on Qingyun? What do you think?"

"Hehe, if you are willing to take the lead, we don't mind joining forces for a surprise attack!" the Blood Shadow's expression changed unpredictably, and a strange laughter came.

Take the lead? The Azure Cloud Sect is also a Soul Formation inheritance. Even if they are weak, they are not easily breached.

Launching an attack would require a great deal of casualties. We would both be heavily injured, and then you would take advantage of it?

The Tai Yin Perfected Being couldn't help but sneer at this thought, avoiding the topic and saying, "As far as I know, the Azure Cloud Sect has two types of overall defense methods."

"One is the Zonghu Formation - [Jia Mu Qing Tian Formation]!"

"The second is the defense mechanism that protects the entire sect, composed of [Hu Men Cao], [Di Wu Shu], [Chuan Yin Hua], and others!"

"Regardless of which one, there is a central control system!"

"And the control system of the latter is divided into two parts. One is responsible for the defense of the Azure Cloud Sect's true disciples and Foundation Building elders, and only Azure Cloud Sect Gold Core can enter this control center."

"The other is responsible for the defense of the residence of the inner and outer sect disciples. This control center is always occupied by three Foundation Building cultivators, and non-Azure Cloud Sect members are not allowed to enter."

"If we want to take action inside, we must destroy the control center of the defensive measures such as [Hu Men Cao], [Di Wu Shu], [Chuan Yin Hua], and make them blind."

"But the former can only be accessed by Gold Core Perfected Beings, so it is impossible to take action. Therefore, we can only target the latter, but it is not an easy task!"

"Hehe, I believe Fellow Daoist Tai Yin must have a way, right? Besides, doesn't Azure Cloud Sect have assassins who can infiltrate?" Blood Shadow said lightly.

Upon hearing this, Tai Yin Perfected Being's cloudy eyes slightly narrowed.

How did the other party know about the assassins? They have been fighting each other for many years and have a clear understanding of each other's methods.

Therefore, using methods such as soul possession and shadow possession to infiltrate the lower levels of Azure Cloud Sect is possible, but it is impossible to infiltrate the higher levels!

The only way is to make people genuinely inclined towards Xuan Yin Sect and have enough cunning and means to deal with Azure Cloud Sect's scrutiny.

The cultivators who can enter the control center have grown up in Azure Cloud Sect since childhood and are deeply rooted. How could they be willing to sacrifice themselves for Xuan Yin Sect?

Not to mention that the actions of the assassins are full of danger, and cultivators are selfish and self-centered. How could they be willing to sacrifice themselves for others?

Considering all these factors, it is extremely difficult to insert someone inside.

Therefore, the only way is to turn them against each other!

Using factors such as hatred and desire to turn the Azure Cloud Sect's direct line against them.

And in order to achieve this, Xuan Yin Sect has paid a huge price. They have not only consumed a large amount of resources but also lost a true disciple!

This was a big secret of Xuan Yin Sect. How did the other party know about it?

Tai Yin Perfected Being stared at the other party with a gloomy expression, and Blood Shadow remained silent, waiting quietly. The scene fell into silence for a while.

After a long time, Tai Yin Perfected Being finally spoke, "Alright, I will make him cooperate with you. But what about Chang Qing, the old ghost?"

"Didn't you severely injure him last time? Did you keep any of his blood?" Blood Shadow asked.

"Yes!" Tai Yin Perfected Being affirmed.

"Give me his blood. I will personally curse him!" Blood Shadow's voice was cold.

"Alright!" Tai Yin Perfected Being took out a blood jade and a withered eyeball from the grave.

"This is Chang Qing's blood, and this is the list of outstanding disciples of the new generation of Azure Cloud Sect!" Tai Yin Perfected Being's face carried an indescribable coldness, and his words were filled with killing intent.

"This time, even if we pay a great price, we must completely bury the young generation of Azure Cloud Sect. This will lay the foundation for the battle for the Soul Formation Fallen Land and the future war!"

Inside the withered eyeball is the list of outstanding disciples of Azure Cloud Sect.

It includes true disciples Zhang Mengyao, Zhang Zhiming, as well as inner sect disciples Xu Mengyun, Zhang Hao, and... Lin Chen!

The situation of the hidden turmoil between Azure Cloud Sect and Xuan Yin Sect finally turned into an open confrontation with the anomaly in the Soul Formation Fallen Land!
