Chapter 567: Eve of Decisive Battle
Near Immortal Fate City, before an old man and a young girl could escape.
A black light emitting a fierce aura, arrived before them in the blink of an eye. The Green Leaf Dharma Boat swayed for a while, and before it could take off, it fell to the ground.
The two fell, covered in dirt and dust.
Left Envoy Xiang waved his hand casually, and a terrifying ghost head attacked the two, as if to devour them.
Seeing this, the old man and young girl immediately showed despair.
However, at this very moment.
Thousands of miles away from Immortal Fate City, Qin Ming was leisurely sitting in the Lofty Sky Treasure Carriage, drinking Spirit Tea and browsing the Jade Scroll in his hand.
Suddenly, Qin Ming frowned. His Divine Sense, comparable to the Spirit Transformation Stage, sensed the aura of the Blood Universe Demonic Path appearing.
In the next instant, Divine Sense spread and radiated out. Everything that happened near Immortal Fate City was under his control.
Qin Ming's Divine Sense Power moved slightly, and an invisible force rigidly fixed that Golden Core Demon Cultivator in mid-air.
At the city gate.
The old man and young girl were already waiting to die, but they saw that ferocious demon head suddenly stop, with a look of horror, as if the scene had frozen.
The demon head he released also instantly disintegrated and disappeared like foam.
Such a bizarre scene completely exceeded the understanding of the two Minor Qi Condensation Cultivators.
After a while, the old man and young girl saw that the horned demon cultivator fixed in the air still showed no movement.
Immediately, they were drenched in sweat and panting.
The old man hastily activated the Green Leaf Dharma Boat and fled This Location in panic with the girl.
After the two had left for a few breaths.
Ripples spread in the Void, and Qin Ming's figure slowly emerged, as if appearing out of thin air.
He looked in the direction where the old man and young girl had left, and then turned his attention to the horned demon cultivator he had fixed in place.
This Demonic Cultivator called Left Envoy Xiang had a look of horror on his face. Facing Qin Ming at this moment, he was like the two Minor Qi Condensation Cultivators earlier facing his Late Golden Core Stage self, powerless and unable to even think of resisting.
Qin Ming's expression was indifferent, and he casually set up a Soundproof Barrier.
Immediately afterwards, he placed a large hand on the horned demon cultivator's head and began to use the Soul-Searching Technique on him.
With Qin Ming's current Divine Sense strength, he could perform Soul Searching without causing complete death.
After a moment.
Qin Ming's eyes flickered.
Devouring Heaven Rat asked from the side, "Master, what's wrong? Is there any change? Why did these Demonic Cultivators suddenly emerge from here?"
"Hmm, this person's Cultivation Level is not high enough, and he doesn't know much Insider Information. He was just dispatched to This Location in advance, but... the Blood Refinement Demon Sect seems to have some special plan," Qin Ming said indifferently.
Immediately following this.
He did not immediately kill this 'Left Envoy Xiang', but instead, a plan formed in his mind.
Qin Ming planned to use the Demon Infant to perform Body Seizing on him, and then use a counter-plot to acquire Demonic Path Intelligence.
He was worried about not being able to find Demonic Path Cultivators. This person's status and Cultivation Level were just right. At that time, before the Decisive Battle, the Demon Gate of the Blood Realm would definitely still issue orders to this person.
In the next instant.
The Demon Infant on the Black Lotus Platform in his Central Palace Dantian smiled strangely, transformed into a Black Light and flew out, entering the horned demon cultivator's head, instantly devouring his Spirit Soul and performing Body Seizing to replace him.
After doing all this, Qin Ming took Devouring Heaven Rat and quietly disappeared into the Void, vanishing without a trace.
And 'Left Envoy Xiang' in the Late Golden Core Stage slightly adapted to this unfamiliar body, a thoughtful expression appearing on his face.
The few Demonic Cultivators who went to investigate in the city seemed to have also noticed some unusual movements and hastily flew towards Left Envoy Xiang's direction.
"Reporting to Left Envoy Xiang, this small city is already empty, and no other abnormalities were found."
"Has something happened on your side?"
Left Envoy Xiang said indifferently, "It's nothing, just two ants. This Seat has already dealt with them. We will continue to lie in wait at This Location, waiting for the Holy Gate Demon Monarch to contact us."
"Yes!"
…
Two days later.
Qin Ming had already returned to Moon Gazing Island.
He sat in the Azure Wood Pavilion Great Hall, recalling the Useful Information Soul Searched from the mind of that Golden Core Demon Cultivator.
"It seems the Demon Gate is coming fiercely this time, and it is bound to come out in full force."
"The five Deity Transformation Sects of the Blood Realm, Blood Refinement Demon Sect, Nether Palace, Longevity Temple, Immeasurable Mountain Sect, and Ten Thousand Souls Cliff, under the personal leadership of the Demon Lord of Divinity Transformation, are about to launch the final Realm Descent. However, the specific location of the Void Eye is still unknown."
"It seems we still have to wait for the upper echelons of the Blood Realm to contact that Golden Core Demon Cultivator before we can know the specific movements that follow."
Qin Ming immediately took out a blank Jade Scroll, wrote down the Obtained Information, and then had Hua Tian Xiong rush back to the Great Jin Grand Alliance at top speed.
As the War approached, special channels were also established between the Five Great Cultivation Realms.
Through the Super-Distance Teleportation Formation, important Information could be delivered quickly.
Qin Ming then entered Secluded Cultivation again, directly Cultivating the "Mysterious Crow Escape Void Art".
This Cultivation Method is indeed a top-tier Cultivation Method from an Ancient Times immortal Sect. Its power is completely beyond imagination, but the pain of splitting the Spirit Soul was also something Qin Ming remembered vividly.
Several months later.
A jet-black crow flew out from Qin Ming's Immortal's Cave, shuttling and flying in the Spirit Island. Its Flight Speed was so fast that it instantly penetrated the Void, which was simply unbelievable.
Moreover, the appearance of this crow looked no different from the Spirit Crows that existed in the outside world, lifelike, with shiny black feathers, turning a pair of intelligent eyes to Observe its surroundings.
This was a Spirit Crow transformed by Qin Ming using Divine Sense after Cultivating the "Mysterious Crow Escape Void Art" to great success.
On the basis of Divine Sense Manifestation, he achieved Divine Sense Materialization, as if creating something out of thin air.
However, achieving this step was limited to transforming into Spirit Crows, and the number was only about five, which was still quite a distance from the three thousand Mysterious Crows on the Jade Scroll.
Moreover, this was still when his Divine Sense had reached the level comparable to the Early Deity Transformation Stage.
After Cultivating this Secret Technique, it also gave him a clearer understanding.
"Probably this Secret Technique was created by Ancient Cultivators above the Spirit Transformation Stage."
…
Time slowly passed, several months later.
In the deserted Immortal Fate City, 'Left Envoy Xiang', who was meditating in the Underground secret chamber, suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a gleam of light, and a strange smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.
"Is it finally about to begin?"
He immediately got up and came outside, and ordered the few low-Rank Demonic Cultivators:
"Follow This Seat and prepare to respectfully welcome the Demon Monarch!"
The few Demonic Cultivators guarding outside were all Extremely Excited and Hastily responded in the affirmative.
These days, they had been lying dormant for so long. Wasn't this the moment they were waiting for?
"Brothers! We are finally going to make it! The opportunity to make meritorious achievements has come!"
If they could receive a Reward from the Demon Monarch, even just casually bestowing some Blood Pills would be enough to make their Cultivation Level advance by leaps and bounds.
In Immortal Fate City, they had also secretly built a Reception Platform to facilitate more Demonic Path Realm Descent and stabilize the Void Passage.
Left Envoy Xiang, who was Body Seized by Qin Ming's Demon Infant, led the dozen or so Demonic Cultivators and came to the platform to wait.
Not long after.
Rumble!
Above the Sky Dome, Void Anomalies opened wide. Black vortexes twisted and rotated, as if some huge monster was about to emerge from them.
After only a few breaths, a jet-black hundred-zhang Demon Warship drilled out from the Void Anomalies and steadily hovered above the Reception Platform.
On the Demon Warship, densely packed Demonic Cultivators and Demonic Beasts with fanatical and excited looks in their eyes stood, and their Cultivation Level was surprisingly all Above Foundation Establishment.
Golden Core Demon Cultivators were not in the minority either.
These Demonic Cultivators wore different clothes, obviously not from a single Demonic Path Sect.
On the bow of the Demon Warship stood a wizened old man with white hair and wrinkled skin, wearing a blood-red robe, and his Cultivation Level was surprisingly at the Early-Nascent Soul Stage.
'Left Envoy Xiang' immediately became serious upon seeing this person!
Qin Ming's Demon Infant naturally recognized this person based on the Memory Obtained from Soul Searching, and led his Subordinates forward to bow and greet him:
"Subordinate respectfully welcomes Elder Demon Lord Zhuyin!!"
"The matters Instructed by the Elder, this disciple has prepared everything properly."
Old Devil Zhuyin's cloudy eyes looked around, and then he said faintly, "Hmm, very good."
"Ten days later, the Supreme Elder will lead the Holy Gate to descend upon the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World. At That Time, Cultivator Armies from the other four Sects will secretly gather at This Location through the Void Passage, and then join forces with our Sect to encircle the Spirit Nesting Archipelago."
'Left Envoy Xiang' Hearing This, a trace of imperceptible light swept across his eyes, and he then respectfully asked, "May I ask, Demon Lord, are we to open the Void Eye at This Location? Is it necessary to send more people to Warden it?"
Old Devil Zhuyin said, "This time, our Sect's two Void Eyes will be personally overseen by the Supreme Elder and will be opened directly in the Spirit Nesting Archipelago."
"The other four Sects' five Void Eyes will be set up in three locations in Great Li and two locations in Divine Path Mountain of Great Jin respectively."
"You and the others continue to wait at This Location, preparing to continue to receive Fellow Daoists from other Sects to descend."
'Left Envoy Xiang's' heart stirred slightly, and he could not help but ponder: Is it finally coming?
The Demon Lord of Divinity Transformation of the Blood Refinement Demon Sect is personally descending upon the Southern Wilderness. This time, Great Jin is no longer at the forefront of the Southern Wilderness.
But it is taking the brunt.
…
On Moon Gazing Island, Qin Ming sat in the Azure Wood Pavilion Great Hall.
After Pondering for a moment, he summoned Mo Lingwei and Hua Tian Xiong in.
"Greetings, Island Lord!"
Qin Ming waved his hand, "Spare the formalities. Have the higher-ups of the Four Nations Alliance come to see This Seat secretly and discreetly."
Hua Tian Xiong and Mo Lingwei Hearing This, could not help but exchange a glance, and then asked, "Island Lord... is it..."
"That's right, the War is about to begin, in ten days." Qin Ming did not hide anything. "Go and make your arrangements, but do not publicize it and leak information, so as not to arouse suspicion from the Demonic Path."
"Yes! We will go and do it now."
Only two days later.
Inside the Azure Wood Pavilion.
Familiar people from the Four Nations of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World all came. Wei Wuya, Gu Qingzhao, Fang Han, Huangfu Qi, and Ancestor Pei Qing and other Golden Core Cultivators all arrived.
After Learning of the Demonic Path's plan, that two large-scale Void Eyes were about to descend upon the Southern Wilderness.
And after the Demon Lord of Divinity Transformation Realm Descent, their expressions completely collapsed.
Wei Wuya hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then Senior Qin, should we ask the General Alliance for help in this matter?"
Qin Ming waved his hand indifferently, "Forget it. Great Jin is the same. At That Time, they will probably be preoccupied with their own affairs. Perhaps they will even need our assistance."
"In this case... you gather the Cultivator Army and head to Immortal Fate City near the Border Region. At That Time, This Seat will notify several Fellow Core Formation Daoists to give this group of Blood Realm Demonic Path a chance to be caught like turtles in a jar."
"As for the Spirit Nesting Archipelago, This Seat will personally handle it."
"Yes! We respectfully obey Perfected Person Senior's Instructions!" The higher-ups of the Four Nations Alliance did not dare to have any doubts about Qin Ming's words. After receiving orders, they immediately went to execute them with great efficiency.
