Chapter 278: Old Ancestor is merciful, he wants to save Beidi from the sea of bitterness!

In the Cultivation World, Beidi has always been synonymous with a remote and desolate land.

Its resources are even more scarce than those in Nanhuang.

The three most powerful Immortal Sects only occupy Third-Grade Low-Tier Spiritual Veins.

The original fishing and pastoral industries could only barely maintain a small scale because the Evil Qi pollution made it difficult to access high-end markets.

Added to this, it snows for ten months out of the year.

Even the total population of mortals is far inferior to other regions.

However, following the massive outbreak of Evil Spirits.

In such an environment, the number of Evil Spirit outbreaks was actually much lower compared to other regions.

Coupled with the three major sects working together, they cooperated with the High Monks of the Great Golden Light Temple to seal those troublesome large-scale Evil Spirits.

This caused the others in the secret chamber to tremble slightly, all thinking that this Old Ancestor Nangong was actually a shill for Xueshen Laozu.

Ultimately, the three major sects summoned the small and medium-sized sects within their respective spheres of influence.

Upon hearing this, those small and medium-sized sects became as excited as if they had been injected with adrenaline.

Moreover, this kind of matter...

"In order for the living beings of Beidi to not suffer under the scourge of the demons, this seat will have to endure some hardship."

The location of the Royal Palace of the former Beiyuan Dynasty in Beidi.

"Interesting, it just so happens that this Venerable One is also quite interested in that Old Ancestor!"

They clearly stated their position that they would participate in the soon-to-be-convened Demon-Slaying Alliance.

And they would also invite the Old Ancestors of each sect to personally attend, carrying divine weapons and other items that suppress the sect's fortune.

Chiyuan Immortal Sect has sealed its mountains and will not leave its Zhu Feng.

"We truly need the Old Ancestor to spare no effort in taking action, to sweep across the universe and save the common people from the sea of bitterness!"

"Yet it is the faction with the most cultivators and the strongest ability in magical combat."

Being quite curious about this, they nodded and agreed at the time.

As for infiltrating as high-level members or such, individual cases certainly exist, but normally, it is more likely that it would be like throwing a meat bun at a dog—never to return.

They looked at each other, smiles appearing on the corners of their mouths, and they echoed the sentiments one after another.

"Perhaps there is also the temptation of quotas for escaping under the great catastrophe!"

After regaining his senses, Yunzhong Jie naturally told everything he knew without reservation.

"I'm afraid that mutual benefit combined with coercion and inducement accounts for a larger proportion, right?"

"Beidi has suffered from the demon scourge for too long!"

After Su Ping had the Dream-Illusion Giant Snake take action to pull Yunzhong Jie and the others into a dream.

A total of twelve people gathered in the secret chamber within the Blood God Secret Realm.

This sect has many branches; it is rumored that several Demon Sects that triggered crackdowns by Immortal Sects in the Central Region are also branches or aliases of this sect.

A stone building resembling a large arena was constructed in a short period of time.

"My Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion will prepare for the Beidi alliance for the Old Ancestor right away!"

Thanks to the Steel Puppets, the work he was responsible for was completed ahead of schedule.

They had originally thought that they had humbled and wronged themselves to such an extent.

From the mouth of this Demonic Path spy of the Yunzhong family, Su Ping quickly learned.

"The Old Ancestor is merciful!"

The three major sects would not go and question it; they already knew many things from the reply letter.

He looked at Old Ancestor Nangong, this alchemist.

Manager Dongfang hurriedly offered a few words of comfort before letting Yunzhong Jie recover from his fear.

Every word seemed to come from the bottom of his heart.

In their view, these upright and honorable reasons were all just excuses!

How could they at least not be able to persuade a few old acquaintances to help put in a good word?

As a result...

Hearing that even warriors without a Spirit Root can successfully pilot them.

Furthermore, the number of Nascent Soul old monsters in Beidi on the surface does not even add up to more than those on his own side!

Three days later.

"Demon-Slaying Alliance?"

Discovering that that Old Ancestor and the mysterious cultivators under his command had mastered the Big Dipper series of divine arts, and that their level of mastery was quite deep, was not a very difficult matter.

Upon learning of this, among these cunning and crafty old foxes, there were not many who were truly shocked in their hearts.

At the very least, list out a charter to give their three major sects a way to survive.

The three major sects of Beidi also quietly sought out a secret place to hold a meeting.

Only Su Ping seemed to have understood something, yet he also seemed to have understood nothing at all.

Meanwhile.

Why is Beidi so peaceful? Do they really think Beidi is some land favored by the heavens?

This day... it is clearly already unable to even take care of itself!

"The three major sects of Beidi: Kumu Temple, Changsheng Temple, and Xuejian Sect."

He did not dare to be negligent regarding this.

He was stunned to learn that the other party was actually a True Disciple of the Xuejian Sect, one of the three major northern sects.

Are you kidding? Isn't this Alliance Leader position clearly the one designated by that Xueshen Laozu?

Thereby providing a possibility for the compromise of selling out small and medium-sized sects in exchange for their own autonomy.

"Then, let the Old Ancestor serve as the Alliance Leader of the Zhumo Alliance!"

Waited for a while longer.

"The True Disciples are all people of the Demon Sect; is the Demonic Path really that powerful?"

"The Xiancheng Mo Family is willing to serve the Old Ancestor as dogs and horses!"

Saw the Demon God statue from a distance that could put his mind at ease, and reported this matter.

"My Huang Family also has a caravan intelligence network in Beidi; we can send letters to invite the heroes of Beidi for the Old Ancestor!"

Wait, after becoming the Alliance Leader, can one openly adopt the strengths of a hundred schools for one's own use?

And also lead everyone to gang up on the Demonic Path evildoers?

"With the Old Ancestor taking action this time, we can fully convene a Zhumo Assembly in Beidi and summon all sects and factions to gather."

On the other hand, it was to pin their hopes on the two great Immortal Sects.

The Sect Master of the Molian Sect also learned of this shocking news.

Su Ping sighed and had someone bring the Vice Sect Leader of the Ten Directions Sect who was in the Blood God Secret Realm.

When the three great sects were seeking help, they had already set their bottom line for compromise in their hearts.

Wait, Kumu Temple has the Kumu True Scripture, and Changsheng Temple has the Changsheng Qiankun Art; are they both wondrous arts skilled in prolonging life?

And most crucially, is it rumored to have a connection with the South Dipper lineage?

During this period, there will no longer be High Monks wandering everywhere to Seal Evil Spirits and slay demons.

The Vice Pavilion Master left behind by the Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion, as well as the family representatives sent by those cultivation families with deep foundations, also came looking.

And the requirements for Cultivators are very low.

It is just that such tranquility is undoubtedly only an illusion!

"Kumu Temple and Changsheng Temple are both large sects with long histories, and tracing them back, each has legends of Immortal Sects."

Su Ping sighed lightly and said:

"Enough, enough!"

"The Old Ancestor is merciful! The Qianqi Wanfa Pavilion is willing to contribute to this matter!"

Even their own family is willing to offer annual tributes just to seek peace and safety.

Su Ping took a deep look at the Vice Sect Leader of the Ten Directions Sect who revealed this news.

As the Nangong Clan took the lead in setting the tone.

It is just that such Steel Puppets are clearly more cost-effective; not only is the production volume high, but the first batch alone had as many as one hundred and twenty units.

It is just that the more powerful the pilot, the more flexible and capable the Steel Puppet can perform.

Willing to cede half of the Beidi region to that Xueshen Laozu as his territory.

He hurriedly contacted the mysterious Earth Palace.

Then Su Ping felt that the intelligence collection was about enough, so he prepared to report the Jade Slip.

Upon hearing this, the Molian Sect Sect Master did not show the slightest dissatisfaction, only nodded in agreement, and quickly transformed into a mass of black mist.

If a truly talented young genius of the Demonic Path were sent to a large sect, wouldn't it turn into a beautiful story of "abandoning darkness for light" in the blink of an eye?

However, even so, this matter exposed that the undercurrents beneath the surface in Beidi are equally turbulent.

But in this way, neither of the two great Immortal Sects can exert any effort.

Had been inquiring about how to order one for personal use.

Seeing the Xueshen Laozu express his stance.

Following closely, a large amount of stone and decoration materials were also released from numerous Storage Bags.

Anyway, at worst, if the situation is not right, the Memory Illusion can take the lead, and the main body can just teleport away.

That rigid intelligence, compared to the Golden Armor Puppet, is even more like a mentally disabled person.

They have no ability to contact the Xueshen Laozu side; they can only write letters, send gifts, and say nice things, hoping to delay it for a while.

Some Cultivators even displayed artistic talent, carving various patterns for those stone beads.

The three great sects of Beidi also had many guests arrive all at once.

Occupying Beidi and squeezing the cultivation resources of sects like them is the goal, and it is also what conforms to common sense!

However, regarding the connection limit exposed, Su Ping asked the elders of the Nangong Clan who knew more about this aspect.

The Demon Sect people of the Yunzhong Clan do not have high status, and that is all they know.

Thus, not long after the meeting ended in the secret room here.

The three great sects also indeed intended to reveal their trump cards and show their strength.

"Among these, the Xuejian Sect is a rising star, with only a thousand years of history."

Is it that the Xueshen Laozu finally couldn't hold back, and one overseas location can no longer satisfy his desires?

"The Old Ancestor is wise!"

Not to mention that the Demonic Path does not care about morality or reputation, and values practical benefits more.

Upon learning that the elder in the family was a Demon Sect disciple, he was startled and hurriedly knelt on the ground, shouting for mercy.

It is just that this Demon Sect person is also ruthless enough; to avoid routine inspections, he used a Secret Technique to perform a personality split on himself.

As for helping to speak up or anything, they just acted as if they didn't know.

The news from the two great Immortal Sects is nine out of ten times ignored.

Those Steel Puppets were all mass-produced items that only appeared because of the Old Ancestor's arrival.

"Hehehe, it is just right to use this to probe further!"

A large number of Immortal Boats arrived at this place, and as a large number of Cultivators piloted ten to twenty-meter Steel Puppets, they flew out.

The ruins of the Royal Palace were quickly cleared away.

Regarding the intelligence that they knew he would be interested in the South Dipper lineage.

He sighed endlessly in his heart.

He hoped to have someone of weight within the Immortal Sect come forward to speak, to let that Old Ancestor show mercy.

Nangong Ping'an, responsible for supervision, stood with his hands behind his back, hovering in mid-air while watching the Steel Puppets busy on the ground like ants.

As for the Dajinguang Temple, after the young Abbot left, the High Monk Kongjue came over to deliver gifts and mentioned that the Dajinguang Temple would be fully occupied with holding a large-scale Dharma Assembly during this period.

Thinking about it, that made sense; how could such a powerful person keep hiding in a place overseas where the Spirit Qi was thin?

Dominating Beidi alone was the only logical option.

Quite a few Qi Refining cultivators even became obsessed with these Steel Puppets after piloting them.

Ordinary sects didn't have this capability, but if a behemoth like the Ten Directions Sect carefully organized it.

"Use the great momentum to sweep away the Demonic Path evildoers and Evil Spirits of Beidi, and return a bright and clear sky to Beidi!"

"Our Xiancheng Zhong Family and all our Elders are willing to perform this righteous deed for the Old Ancestor!"

It seemed that in all aspects, they were not as finely crafted as the Golden Armor Puppets made by the Puppet Masters.

The Ten Directions Sect... it seemed the Ten Directions Sect was also on his side?

Even those Demon Sect disciples lurking within the sects didn't believe that the Old Ancestor from the south had really come for the sake of slaying demons.

The one responsible for the infiltration plan was the most mysterious Molian Sect within the Demon Sect.

Then he discovered that among the elders of the Yunzhong Clan, one was actually a member of the Demon Sect!

They all thought the three major sects were uniting this time to stand up for them and negotiate with that powerful outsider!

Everyone acted in unison once again, offering their support one after another.

For this, they were even willing to run to the Spirit Rice Department to sign loans and engage in some kind of advance consumption?

Approaching noon, Nangong Ping'an checked the time and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

The Old Ancestor of the Nangong family stood up to speak first, looking at Su Ping with a face full of admiration, speaking in such righteous terms.

And he also mentioned that when the large-scale Dharma Assembly was held, he hoped that Su Ping, this Xueshen Laozu, could attend.

Following a group of Foundation Establishment cultivators who entered this new venue, they cast spells to clear it clean.

First, they mobilized their own connections and influence, hoping to salvage the situation.

When preparing to report it, Su Ping was suddenly startled, realizing that it seemed the Cultivation World at this moment... no longer had any forces he could report to for help or to shift the blame onto?

Furthermore, both the Exorcist Mage Yunkong and the Fire Knight Alwin had previously displayed the Beidou Tanlang Fist.

This caused even him to believe that he was not some member of the Demonic Path when the suggestion was not activated!

Yet unexpectedly, the secret he himself did not even know was easily exposed in the Dream Realm of the Dream Giant Serpent.

The current Demonic Path had long been entangled with the children of the Evil Gods.

He was very certain that he had not tipped the other party off beforehand.

"This matter requires the Old Ancestor!"

Yunzhong Jie did not know what had happened at first.

"Molian, send your precious grandson over; this Venerable One will bestow upon him a strand of evil soul!"

While the Elders of the three major sects were left in a state of distress, they were also quite uneasy about the impending arrival of the Xueshen Laozu.

Thereby completing many engineering tasks that were difficult for Qi Refining cultivators to finish.

It actually gave others the impression that Beidi was still relatively peaceful.

After Qi Refining cultivators became pilots, they could transform into Foundation Establishment Body Cultivators with heaven-sent divine power by relying on the Steel Puppets.

The few who replied indicated that they were all at a critical juncture and were truly powerless to do anything about what was happening in Beidi.

However, what were they, the locals of Beidi, to do?

For a time, the hearts of the various sects in Beidi were unsettled.

"That's right!"

The various sects of Beidi learned that the Xueshen Laozu, who had fought his way out of Nanhuang, leveled the Ten Thousand Mountains, and captured a Nascent Soul demon... was actually coming to their Beidi!

Su Ping was not surprised; his few times of taking action still left traces of the Greedy Wolf Divine Sense and Pojun Power.

Su Ping pondered for a moment and understood these things.

His heart could not help but grow increasingly heavy.

After the outbreak of Evil Spirits, the Molian Sect gathered many Demon Sects to form an alliance, intending to create a Demonic Path alliance.

There were even some who secretly thought, this is how it should be; other places were already so unlucky.

After all, he knew how the Demon Heart Old Monster, who had similar cultivation to him, had been severely injured and then abandoned by the Demon Lord.

The secret chamber suddenly became lively, filled with laughter and cheers.

The Demon Sect had been infiltrating the various sects of Beidi for hundreds of years.

They were even going to hold some kind of Demon-Slaying Assembly to elect a Zhumo Alliance leader!

The Old Ancestor's carriage and the even larger Immortal Boat Fleet, under the cover and protection of a Blood Cloud.

Slowly entered the world of this Beidi.

And after entering the venue, with formations set up in the sky and on the ground.

The Demon Emperor White Ape and the East Sea Dragon Lord Aoli simultaneously revealed their true forms, thousands of meters tall, and issued a proclamation to all directions!
