Immortality Starts With Ignorant Heart Sword Art

Chapter 150: Candidate Saint Child

Apart from the competition for resources, in the Demon Sect, because people can refine pills, fellow disciples are also seen as the best "medicine" or excellent materials for refining tools in the eyes of others.

Under such circumstances, the infighting among disciples in the Demon Sect is much more serious than in the Dao Sect.

At this moment, when Ding Rong failed, Cai Jie from the Myriad Spirit Demon Sect, who took the path of shadows, took the opportunity to strike at her, not wanting her plan to succeed easily.

"Eight nodes, fourteen cities, Ding Rong, among the teams we sent out, you are the only one who failed."

The deliberate words made the face of the Blood Bone Perfected Being darken, while Ding Rong, the person in question, felt annoyed in her heart. However, she did not show it and instead pitifully said, with tears in her eyes, "This servant also didn't want to fail, but the cultivator who went to support Black Prison City was too strong. This servant feels that he is not an inner disciple, but the true successor of the Cloud Firmament Sect."

"Heh, first of all, if the Cloud Firmament Sect really sent down their true successor, they would never let such a powerful force go to a place as unimportant as Black Prison City. Instead, they would have them come to the Abyss City to compete for the celestial nodes. Secondly, even if they are true successor disciples, they are only slightly stronger than us, not as exaggerated as you said."

"That's right, only a Perfected Being can suppress three thousand soldiers in one step. Such a thing can only be done by a Perfected Being."

Taking advantage of the situation, kicking someone when they're down, not only Cai Jie from the Myriad Spirit Demon Sect, but also the other people in the room wanted to nail her to the pillar of shame for her failure. This way, when they enjoy the rewards of the blood sacrifice later, they will have one less person to share with.

Meanwhile, Ding Rong has been defending herself.

"Perfected Being, this servant really did her best... Moreover, it's not just this servant who went to Black Prison City, there's also Fellow Daoist Wu Zhan from the Ranyang Sect, He Zhou from the Blood Sea Sect, and Fellow Daoist from the Myriad Spirit Demon Sect. They are all considered geniuses, but all three of them perished in Black Prison City."

"Even if this servant is not capable enough, not everyone is like that."

"Perfected Being, Zhong Cang from the Cloud Firmament Sect is really strong, please be careful in dealing with him."

After speaking, before the other demonic geniuses could say anything, she coquettishly said, "If you brothers don't believe it, you can personally go and investigate."

These words made the faces of the people who had just struck her darken slightly. It was only the Blood Bone Perfected Being who pondered for a while before nodding.

"This method is feasible. Cai Jie, you take some people to investigate and see if that Taoist is really the true successor of the Cloud Firmament Sect."

"Yes, Perfected Being."

While agreeing with his mouth, Cai Jie was already prepared to casually investigate and then come back to report. When reporting, he planned to downplay Zhong Cang's strength to punish Ding Rong.

And at this moment, the fact that such thoughts could arise also indicated one thing - from beginning to end, the Demon Sect of the Abyss City did not take Zhong Cang seriously. Even when they learned from Ding Rong's mouth that Black Prison City had fallen and there were still two hundred thousand Black Armor Army inside, they did not pay much attention to it.

This is both arrogance and confidence in their own strength.

In their eyes, those who went to Black Prison City were already weak disciples, and the leaders were also ordinary.

On the other hand, in Abyss City, there were true geniuses and a large number of disciples from the Demon Sect, as well as the elite of the noble families from the Xuan Yuan Realm's Youzhou. With so many people stationed here, unless Cloud Firmament Sect launched a full-scale attack, they couldn't even think about losing.

...

Black Prison City, Zhong Cang led the army and set off.

The disciples of the Demon Sect in Abyss City didn't care at all, while the defected members of the noble families were excited and eager, preparing for the upcoming blood sacrifice.

While the people in the Xuan Yuan Realm were busy, in the Hongxuan Continent, Cloud Firmament Sect, Gold Core Perfected Being Tao Juran was also not idle. He was receiving a female cultivator dressed as a young woman.

Unlike the carefree and unrestrained Tao Perfected Being, the young woman, although also a cultivator, had a merchant-like aura. By her side was a mischievous little girl.

"Master Ai, you're here. What do the Featherfly Sect, Earth Origin Sect, and Great Brightness Temple mean?"

The so-called Featherfly Sect and Earth Origin Sect were famous righteous sects from other regions.

As Yue Qianqian said, the Demon Sect also had rivals in other regions, and the overall situation in the Hongxuan Continent was that the Dao Sect was overwhelming the Demon Sect.

Most of the best spiritual mountains and veins were occupied by the Dao Sect, while the Demon Sect mostly resided in remote and desolate places.

With such weak Demon Sect suddenly appearing in the North Abyss Region and colluding with the Myriad Spirit Demon Sect, Tao Juran naturally took action and held the other major sects accountable.

The North Abyss Region and the Western Wilderness were dangerous places, with dangers everywhere and the emergence of the Demon Sect and Monster Race.

Therefore, in order to deal with the risks, several nearby Great Dao sects had long made a joint declaration, stating that they would advance and retreat together.

Previously, they had also jointly fought against the Monster Race and attacked the Demon Sect together.

With the alliance agreement in place, it was reasonable for Tao Perfected Being to hold them accountable.

"Allowing the Demon Sect to enter the North Abyss Region, are they trying to tear up the alliance agreement?"

Upon hearing this, Master Ai hurriedly said, "Ahem, Tao Perfected Being is being too serious. The other sect leaders don't have such intentions. They have already launched an attack on the Demon Sect. Moreover, the Demon Sect is not invading on a large scale, and there are no Gold Core experts involved. This can't be considered a war, only a localized conflict..."

In the room, the two discussed for an hour and a half, but in the end, Tao Juran did not receive a satisfactory answer.

On the other hand, after leaving the Four Seas Pavilion, Master Ai also felt a bit mentally exhausted. However, she didn't have time to sort out her emotions and immediately took action, teleporting to other regions to contact the other sect leaders.

As for why Cloud Firmament Sect needed to contact the other sects through the Four Seas Pavilion, it naturally had to do with the fact that both sides understood the reasons for their actions.

Therefore, they needed an intermediary so that there would be room for negotiation and they wouldn't have to directly confront each other if things didn't go well.

And this time, Master Ai left, but her daughter didn't follow. Instead, she stayed in the marketplace outside Cloud Firmament Sect.

"Bang bang bang..."

After her mother left, the young Ai Ling quickly arrived at a private room on the fifth floor of the Four Seas Pavilion. Inside, there were about ten young people observing the situation of the Cloud Firmament Sect through the window.

At the same time, there were three people leading the group in the room.

Among the three, one was a steady young man, one was a refined young master, and the other was an extremely handsome monk.

After Ai Ling entered the room, her eyes lit up when she saw the monk, and she quickly approached him.

"Master Qi Xiu, you're here."

"Mm."

The monk had a quiet temperament and didn't like to talk much. Seeing this, another noble young man asked.

"Little Ling, I wonder how the Perfected Being of the Cloud Firmament Sect reacted?"

"Angry, very angry. He said you guys, you guys..."

Seeing the little girl feeling a bit embarrassed, Yu Wen Shu calmly said,

"Don't worry, I know it's not good words. Feel free to say it, we won't get angry."

"Hehe, that's good. Tao Perfected Being said you guys are a group of untrustworthy people, unworthy of being cultivators..."

After conveying a series of vulgar words, Little Ling hesitated for a moment before asking, "Young Master Yu, why don't you take action immediately against the Demon Sect? Aren't the Dao Sects allies?"

"Don't worry, we will take action, but it's not the right time yet."

After a brief conversation, Little Ling was coaxed to leave.

As soon as her figure disappeared, the gentle smiles on the faces of the people in the room vanished without a trace.

Watching the independent cultivators coming and going at the Cloud Firmament Sect's mountain gate, Yu Wen Shu shook his head. "They don't even seek help from the independent cultivators. It seems that the Cloud Firmament Sect is not willing to admit defeat. They want to resist the four Great Demon Sects on their own."

"Not only that, besides the four Great Demon Sects, the Monster Race is also watching. The Cloud Firmament Sect and the Lingyun Sword Sect can't hold on."

The one speaking this time was the steady young man. There was a hint of reluctance in his eyes, but soon, that hint of reluctance disappeared without a trace.

"They will definitely seek help, it's just a matter of time."

"Why bother? Isn't it better to seek help earlier? This way, they can save some disciples from dying."

The steady young man didn't even bother to answer Yu Wen Shu's words.

Indeed, seeking help earlier is indeed good, but there's no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

Even if they are allies, after seeking help, they still have to pay a price.

The earlier they request support, the higher the price they have to pay.

And this time, the calamity that the Cloud Firmament Sect suffered was clearly the result of the Feather Flying Gate and the Earth Origin Sect's indulgence. In this situation, the Yunxiao Sect naturally wouldn't swallow this anger and seek help easily.

As for why the Feather Flying Gate and the Earth Origin Sect indulged the Demon Sect, it was naturally for their own interests.

There's a saying that goes, "Fear that allies will suffer, but fear even more that allies will become strong."

The collision in the lower realm is a great opportunity. If they can digest it perfectly, the strength of the Cloud Firmament Sect can rise to a higher level.

However, if their strength exceeds the balance, the Dao Sects of the Northern Abyss and the Western Wilderness might end up with one dominating the others. At the same time, the Transcendent Level major sects will squeeze the living space of other sects.

Even on the Hongxuan Continent, there are powerful sects that span two domains and "merge" the other sects.

They didn't want to end up in such a situation. After discussing it, they released the chains on the Demon Sect and let them enter the North Abyss Region. They themselves sat back and waited for the Cloud Firmament Sect and the Lingyun Sword Sect to seek help. This way, they could also get a share of the benefits.

While contemplating the sect's plan, the steady young man also looked at the noble young master.

"Yu Wen Shu, I remember that not only did some members of your Yu family join the Feather Flying Gate, but some also joined the Blood Sea Sect. When do you think the Cloud Firmament Sect won't be able to hold on?"

"Fellow Daoist Yue, I don't know what you're talking about."

"Hmph, no need to pretend in front of me. Everyone knows that your Yu family has connections everywhere."

These words made Yu Wen Shu's face darken slightly, but soon, he spoke gently.

"My Yu family has always acted upright. It's just that when a family becomes large, there will always be some members who go astray, just like the Earth Origin Sect where Fellow Daoist Yue is. There are also people who betray the sect."

Seeing that Yue Xiuqi's expression wasn't good, he didn't continue to provoke him. Instead, he gave out a piece of information.

"I don't know when the Cloud Firmament Sect will seek help, but it won't be long. The Cloud Firmament Sect will definitely fall in the lower realm. According to the information I've gathered, each of the four Great Demon Sects has sent two or three candidate Saint Children into the lower realm."

"You also know that each candidate Saint Child has a record of single-handedly killing Foundation Building cultivators at the ninth level of Qi Refining. In the lower realm, where spiritual energy is scarce, Foundation Building cultivators can't exert their full strength. In this way, three to five Foundation Building cultivators might not be a match for the candidate Saint Children of the Demon Sect. With their numbers, the Cloud Firmament Sect won't be able to hold on."

"When the lower realm falls and their disciples die tragically, feeling the pain, they will naturally bow their heads and seek help."
