Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Xu Zhangqing stood to the side, looking at the desolation in the Great Elder's eyes, and felt quite moved in his heart; his heart stirred, and he proposed, "Great Elder, although only three Peak Masters have arrived now, we are not without aid to use.

At least the Yunhua Realm still exists; why not ask the Sect Master to open the Yunhua Realm, and let Senior Brother Zhao Lie and the others come out to help?"

Xuan Yan heard this, and a glint flashed in his eyes: "The Yunhua Realm, hmm."

Xu Zhangqing said seriously, "Zhao Lie and the others are all True Disciples of the Dongting Immortal Sect, each with profound cultivation.

Although the Yunhua Realm has been closed for many years, the Sect Master has the authority to open it.

As long as the Sect Master is willing, these people will certainly come out to help.

At that time, adding our Qingmu Peak, Tiexue Peak, Jin Gang Peak, and Hou Tu Peak, even facing the Wu Sheng Chong Mu and the Xunlong Lineage, we have a chance of winning.

As for the Hundred Dragons Patrol……"

Ling Shuang, Tuoba Ye, and Yue Kun Lun heard this, and hope appeared in all their eyes.

They had all heard of Zhao Lie's strength.

If they could get these True Disciples to help, it would indeed solve the urgent crisis at hand.

Xuan Yan nodded slowly: "No time to delay; I will immediately send a transmission to the Sect Master, earnestly requesting him to open the Yunhua Realm and summon Zhao Lie and the others to come discuss matters!"

Having spoken, he raised his hand and took out a Transmission Jade Talisman.

This is a Jade Talisman exclusive to the Dongting Immortal Sect Master; as mana was continuously poured in, the Jade Talisman remained dim and lusterless, without even a trace of response.

Xuan Yan poured in mana repeatedly, but the Jade Talisman still had no reaction.

It looked as if it had malfunctioned.

Seeing this, Xuan Yan's face darkened: "The Sect Master actually ignores it……"

Xu Zhangqing and the others saw this, and all showed surprised expressions.

Although the Sect Master and the Great Elder differ in stance.

But faced with the current situation, they should temporarily put aside the grudges in their hearts.

There is no reason for him to behave in such an unresponsive manner.

Ling Shuang frowned and said, "The Sect Master has always valued the Immortal Sect's affairs; he would absolutely not ignore the Great Elder's transmission. Could something have happened that makes the Sect Master unable to spare an avatar?"

"What 'unable to spare an avatar'?"

Tuoba Ye couldn't help but retort: "In my view, he simply has set his mind on not wanting to manage!

We misjudged him; we shouldn't have chosen him back then!"

Xuan Yan was silent for a moment: "We will personally go to the Yunhua Realm entrance for a trip and try once more.

If we still cannot make contact, then we will make further plans."

Matters have come to this; we can only do it this way.

Immediately, the group flew toward the location of the Yunhua Realm.

Because the Yunhua Realm is very close to the Xingqiong Hall, not long after, the group arrived.

Xuan Yan stepped forward, placed his hand on the barrier, and continuously poured in mana: "Sect Master, please open the Yunhua Realm and summon Zhao Lie and the others to discuss countermeasures together with us!"

As his voice fell, the barrier still had no response; not even a single ripple arose.

Xuan Yan called out several more times, and the mana he poured in became increasingly vast.

But the Yunhua Realm was like it was dormant, and never responded.

Yue Kun Lun sighed lightly: "Great Elder, it seems the Sect Master truly is unwilling to open the Yunhua Realm, and also does not want Zhao Lie and the others to participate in this matter."

As these words came out, everyone's hearts shook, their faces full of disbelief.

"It shouldn't be like this!"

Xu Zhangqing's brows were tightly knit, his heart full of doubt: "The Sect Master of those years, how heroic?

For the safety of the Tianyuan Realm, he dared to directly face the Demon God!

How has he now become so cold-blooded?

Could it be he really doesn't care about the survival of the Tianyuan Realm, doesn't care about the future of the Dongting Immortal Sect?"

Ling Shuang also couldn't hide her surprise: "The Sect Master has always placed the Immortal Sect and the Tianyuan Realm as paramount; his abnormality this time, could there be some unspeakable difficulty?"

"What unspeakable difficulty?"

Tuoba Ye smashed a fist onto the barrier: "I see he is just greedy for life and afraid of death, afraid of provoking the Hundred Dragons Patrol and the Xunlong Lineage, so he simply hides away and ignores it!"

Yue Kun Lun pressed down Tuoba Ye: "Regardless, he is ultimately the Sect Master; we must not act recklessly!"

Xuan Yan seemed to have also thought it through; looking at everyone, he waved his hand and said: "Alright, no need to argue.

Since the Sect Master's mind is made up, forcing it is useless.

Now we can only rely on ourselves to together tide over the crisis."

Everyone gradually calmed down, their gazes all turning toward the Great Elder.

Now, he is the only pillar of support for everyone.

Xuan Yan said in a deep voice: "Matters have come to this; we must recognize the current situation.

First, the Tu Soil God has already reincarnated; although he has not yet run amok on a large scale, his corrupting power still erodes the Tianyuan Realm's spiritual veins.

Second, the Xunlong Lineage harbors ambitious intentions, suspected of secretly breeding the Tu Soil God, and further attempting to undo the Yin River Shackles, letting the Xuan River's waters reappear in the world."

He paused: "Everyone must know, once the Yin River Shackles are undone and the Xuan River reappears, although it can make Water Spirit Qi surge violently, alleviating the current predicament, it will also attract the Hundred Dragons Patrol to accelerate its arrival.

Once the Hundred Dragons pass through, the Tianyuan Realm will surely become a living hell; this is no different from seeking death!"

Ling Shuang's expression turned grave: "The Xunlong Lineage is actually this vicious?"

Yue Kun Lun nodded in agreement: "They probably mistakenly believe that with the Xuan River's reappearance they can control the situation, yet they don't know the peril within it."

"Besides that, there is also the Wu Sheng Chong Mu."

Xu Zhangqing added: "At present, although it is keeping an extremely low profile and has not made any move, sooner or later it will take advantage of the chaos to cause trouble."

Everyone deeply agreed: "Correct."

Xu Zhangqing continued: "Right now, our most urgent task is still to first stabilize the situation.

Especially letting the numerous Xiuxian Zhe of the Tianyuan Realm know that the Dongting Immortal Sect has not disappeared, and is still willing to act to protect everyone."

A trace of praise flashed through Xuan Yan's eyes: "Changqing speaks reasonably; now that the Sect Master, Gui Lao, and the others are unwilling to act, and Shuixian Peak, Chi Huo Peak, and Xuanming Peak cannot be counted on either.

Since it is so, we must seek new allies.

Do the various positions have any proposals?"

Xu Zhangqing bowed and said: "Great Elder, I do have an idea.

In the Tai Xu Lie Yuan, our Dongting Immortal Sect, the Longhu Immortal Sect, and the Yao Yue Immortal Sect were originally one body.

Now that the Tianyuan Realm is in imminent peril, concerning the safety of all three sides, they certainly will not ignore it.

Why not have everyone go together to the Longhu Immortal Sect and the Yao Yue Immortal Sect, and then propose an alliance.

The Wu Sheng Chong Mu, the Xunlong Lineage, the Tu Soil gods, the Hundred Dragons Patrol — relying on just the few of us, our strength is ultimately too thin.

Only by joining hands is there a chance of victory."

Ling Shuang, Tuoba Ye, and Yue Kun Lun, hearing this, all revealed expressions of agreement in their eyes.

Tuoba Ye said in a coarse voice: "This idea is good; the people of the Longhu Immortal Sect have always walked the righteous path, and although the Yao Yue Immortal Sect acts in a low profile, they also distinguish right from wrong clearly.

As long as we present ourselves at their doors, they will certainly agree!"

Ling Shuang also nodded in agreement: "Correct; the three sides joining hands can not only strengthen our power, but also let more Xiuxian Zhe see hope."

Xuan Yan nodded: "Good, we'll do as Changqing says.

Ling Shuang, you lead people to the Yao Yue Immortal Sect.

Tuoba Ye, you lead people to the Longhu Immortal Sect.

Yue Kun Lun, you return to Hou Tu Peak and bring the Cangming Realm's prisoner Lin Qi here.

We'll act separately; after the alliance is facilitated, we'll discuss subsequent countermeasures!"

Everyone responded in unison: "Yes, Great Elder!"
