Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
Ruo Qunshuang managed the sect in a well-ordered manner; although the sect's scale had not expanded drastically, every member was an elite.
After such peaceful days passed for about half a year, Xu Zhangqing finally freed his hands to seek justice for Ruo Qunshuang for the offense she suffered at the Qingxi Town Exchange Meeting back then.
Therefore, he recalled his avatar, the Female Earth, who was outside.
This avatar was transformed from his own Earth Spirit Root; not only could it control Earth Qi, but it was also proficient in spiritual arrays and feng shui geomancy.
Xu Zhangqing instructed the Female Earth: "For this trip to the Yufeng Sect, there is no need for direct conflict; just quietly alter the feng shui layout, let their fortune decline, and calamity will naturally arrive."
The Female Earth, clad in a yellow Daoist robe, nodded slightly upon hearing this: "Rest assured, I will make the Yufeng Sect decline into ruin without them realizing it."
The two did not ride the Tai Yi Green Lotus Seat, but instead cast the Concealment Technique, transforming into two ordinary cultivators to head for their destination.
The Yufeng Sect is situated in the middle section of a mountain range called "Fengming Mountain".
At the mountain gate stood two blue stone lions, their mouths exhaling faint wind spiritual energy; at a glance, a Mountain Guarding Grand Array had been set up.
Xu Zhangqing and the Female Earth did not force their way in, but circled Fengming Mountain, carefully surveying the mountain terrain and vein lines.
The Female Earth sent her Divine Sense into the ground, instantly grasping the flow of Fengming Mountain's spiritual veins, then spoke with a tone of clear understanding: "Original Body, this Yufeng Sect's feng shui layout is excellent.
Fengming Mountain is shaped like a great roc spreading its wings to fly; the mountain gate faces east, welcoming the morning purple qi.
Behind the mountain winds a hidden river, gathering water and concealing wind.
This is precisely the 'Great Roc Spreading Wings, Purple Qi Coming from the East' layout; no wonder it has become a relatively strong medium sect in the surroundings."
Xu Zhangqing said blandly: "So what if it is an auspicious omen?
Those who dare insult my people — let this auspicious omen turn into a baleful omen!"
The Female Earth nodded, then closed her eyes; the Earth Qi around her grew increasingly dense.
She slowly raised her right hand, palm facing down, aiming at the direction behind Fengming Mountain.
In an instant, the Earth Qi deep underground was drawn and began to slowly circulate.
The first thing altered was the hidden river behind the mountain; this hidden river was originally the Yufeng Sect's "wealth water", gathering water vapor from all directions to nourish the sect's fortune.
The Female Earth controlled Earth Qi to quietly condense a ten-foot-high earthen dam at the bottom of the hidden river; the dam was engraved with minute "Confining Water Array" spiritual runes, difficult to discern with the naked eye.
This earthen dam did not completely cut off the water flow, merely slowing the flow speed and forming countless vortices underwater, causing the originally clear hidden river to gradually become turbid, and the spiritual energy contained in the water vapor also began to become mixed.
The Female Earth whispered: "Water governs wealth; turbid water scatters wealth, stagnant water blocks fortune."
Then her left hand formed a spell seal; this time she targeted Fengming Mountain's "Spiritual Vein".
Fengming Mountain's spiritual vein originates from the main peak's summit, winding downward, running through the entire sect; it is the core supporting the "Great Roc Spreading Wings" layout.
The Female Earth guided the mixed Earth Qi from deep underground, like venomous snakes, to quietly coil around the spiritual vein.
She did not destroy it, but made trouble at the critical nodes, setting up the "Corroding Dragon Array".
This kind of array can slowly erode the spiritual vein's qi, letting it gradually weaken.
To make the effect more concealed, the Female Earth also specially controlled Earth Qi to quietly alter the mountain terrain on the surrounding peaks of Fengming Mountain.
Originally, the peaks surrounding Fengming Mountain were like stars cupping the moon, gathering heaven and earth spiritual energy to nourish the main peak; now, after being slightly altered by the Female Earth, the orientation of the surrounding peaks underwent a minute deviation.
Not only could they no longer gather spiritual energy, but they instead formed "Cutting Wind Blades" that sliced the heaven and earth spiritual energy originally flowing toward Fengming Mountain into utter chaos.
More ingeniously, all these alterations followed the natural laws of heaven and earth; from the surface, Fengming Mountain's terrain and water flow were no different from before.
Even if someone proficient in feng shui came to survey, unless their cultivation reached the Huashen Realm or above, they would fundamentally be unable to detect the trickery within.
The Female Earth withdrew her spell seal, the Earth Qi around her gradually converging: "Original Body, it is done.
Within three years, the Yufeng Sect will begin to see more disciples hitting cultivation bottlenecks and spirit field yields declining.
Within five years, the sect's fortune will decline, and internal strife will inevitably arise.
After ten years, this spiritual vein will thoroughly wither; the Yufeng Sect will fall to a third-rate sect and ultimately disband amidst natural disasters and man-made calamities."
Xu Zhangqing nodded in satisfaction: "Very good!"
Admittedly, when the incident just happened, he could have acted immediately.
But once he did so, he would inevitably give people a handle, be labeled with the hat of bullying the weak with strength, easily damaging his and the Immortal Sect's reputation and prestige.
Now, subduing the enemy without bloodshed is the most secure and best strategy.
The two figures flickered and quietly left Fengming Mountain.
No one knew that this seemingly prosperous sect was destined to decline in the future.
……
……
Tai Xu Lie Yuan, chaotic mist roiled without cease.
At this moment, the land of dead silence was enveloped by violent energy fluctuations; the Three Purifications Alliance and the Ten Thousand Demon Ancestral Court fought until heaven and earth were overturned.
The battlefield of both sides unfolded around a giant mine; this mine contained a large amount of "Star Meteorite Essence Gold", a core material for refining high-rank magic treasures.
Whether it was human cultivators' flying swords and magic treasures, or the demon race's natal weapons, none could do without this rare ore.
On the Three Purifications Alliance side, ten Nascent Soul cultivators formed a spiritual array; Law Power surged around them, and they all condensed Nascent Soul Dharma Forms.
Some were Daoist-robed cultivators holding dharma seals, some were Vajra Arhats with twin wings on their backs, some were Confucian scholars holding folding fans.
The Dharma Forms stood several zhang tall; every attack carried the might to destroy heaven and extinguish earth.
The Ten Thousand Demon Ancestral Court's demon race was not to be outdone; Great Demons and Demon Kings revealed their true bodies one after another — some were gigantic elephants, some were scaled flood dragons, some were Golden-Winged Great Rocs of extreme speed.
They fused Law Power into their true bodies, causing their innate divine abilities to double in power.
Roar!
A giant elephant demon race raised its massive foot and stomped heavily toward the ground; the earth instantly cracked apart, and countless shattered rocks, wrapped in dense demon qi, smashed toward the Three Purifications Alliance cultivators.
A Confucian School Nascent Soul cultivator saw this, waved his folding fan, and a stream of golden "Haoran Righteous Qi" transformed into a huge barrier, blocking the impact of the shattered rocks; at the same time he waved the folding fan again, and countless golden characters, like sharp swords, shot toward the giant elephant demon race.
Both sides were already like water and fire; now, for the Star Meteorite Essence Gold, they were even more killing-red-eyed.
The battle aftershocks of the Nascent Soul cultivators shattered the surrounding space fragments, and the chaos fog was stirred into ceaseless churning.
At this moment, the void suddenly tore open a huge gash.
From within the gash surged a completely different aura.
Ancient and vicissitudinous, also wrapped in heavy pressure, it was utterly out of place with the surroundings.
Seeing this scene, the Three Purifications Alliance and the Ten Thousand Demon Ancestral Court both stopped and carefully observed.
"This Star Meteorite Essence Gold Mountain belongs to my Xuanhuang Realm!"
A resonant voice rang out from the void crack, and immediately afterward, several hundred cultivators clad in golden battle armor walked out from within.
These cultivators' auras were unmatched in ferocity; the lowest were all Golden Core Late Stage cultivation, among them Nascent Soul Stage cultivators accounted for half, and there were even three Spirit Severing Great Powers standing at the front.
One by one golden light surged, their pressure awe-inspiring!
