ed beside the Yellow Spirit with Azure Patterns. The restriction was immediately activated.Facing a dance of silver serpents, Qin Sang's choice this time was not to retreat constantly, but to feint a...As they were speaking.

The Mutian Xuanzhen formation covered Tenglong Cliff, and the black sky curtain expanded outward.

Su Zinan and others felt a surge of emotion, fell silent, and raised their heads to look at the sky, intently observing the changes in the formation.

With their eyesight, it was naturally clear to them that the Sky Veil Xuan Array wasn't simply used to seal off Taiyue Gate. It was also capable of damaging Taiyue Gate's protective mountain array.

From the outside, the Mu Tian Xuan formation appeared impenetrable, embedded within the Tai Yue Sect's protective mountain formation.

The two spiritual formations almost overlapped, and the sky clearly spread within the protective mountain formation.

Two completely different formations, which should have been incompatible, are now perfectly integrated, indistinguishable from each other.

Some key nodes of the Taiyue Gate's Mountain Protecting Grand Formation have either been invaded by the Sky-Concealing Mysterious Formation, or been veiled, or destroyed, resulting in a significant loss of its power.

Therefore, it can be seen that the Sky-Concealing Earth-Veiling Formation is incredibly intricate.

Su Zi Nan, as the inheritor of the Huashen school, was knowledgeable and insightful, perhaps even surpassing everyone present. It was precisely because of this that he understood better than anyone else how difficult such a task would be.

A strange gleam flashed in his eyes as he secretly used his divine powers, trying to deduce the next step of the formation's change in his mind. With the previous hints provided, it was surprisingly difficult.

Looking at the white-haired old man in surprise, Su Zi'nan's evaluation of him rose another level in his heart.

The white-haired old man had been plotting against Taoyue Sect for an unknown amount of time. He knew the protective formation around the mountain like the back of his hand. Even if this person were a master of formations, achieving this level would require an enormous amount of effort, almost impossible to do.

Moreover, blocking Taoyue Gate is just the initial preparatory stage, not even the first step. They haven't seen any sign of Wu Xiang Xianmen yet.

Not even a person, or a powerful force, can do it!

Unless it has been plotted for a very long time, spanning generations, and gradually achieving the plan.

This is indeed something only a disciple of the Wu Xiang Immortal Sect would do.

“According to my foster father's evaluation standards, fellow cultivator has already mastered the way of formations. I admire him!”

Su Zinan was always suave and polite outside. He never pretended to be a divine being or deceive people with his identity. When he made a mistake, he admitted it readily. When he encountered a master, he generously showered them with praise.

Anyone would fail to see his brutal nature.

“I never expected that besides Master Yu and Elder Fan, there would be such a hidden expert in Tianhao Tower. The Quyangshan lineage of Tianhao Tower is not well-known outside. For a fellow cultivator to hide himself within this lineage is truly a waste of talent. In my opinion, your abilities are enough to replace either of these two individuals. If I hadn't followed my foster father and interacted with Master Yu and Elder Fan before, I would have thought one of them was disguised as you, teasing me.”

Let me know if you have more text you'd like translated!

The white-haired old man's subordinates were all dressed in long robes, concealing their identities. But as soon as they made a move against Taoyue Gate, their true identities were revealed. Su Zinan and the others had eyes that could pierce through anything; finally, they saw through his background.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The strange-faced man obviously knew the old man's identity in advance, while the others were somewhat surprised. They didn't expect him to have such a background, coming from the number one sect of the Demon Gate.

The white-haired elder manipulated the Sky-Concealing Array with ease, even managing to respond to Su Daoist, "Daoist Su, you flatter me. Sect Master Yu and Elder Fan's demonic arts are profound, reaching the threshold of transforming into a divine being soon. As for this old man, I can only painstakingly search the ruins of the Wuxiang Immortal Gate, hoping to find an opportunity. The difference in strength is obvious at a glance."

His words also indirectly indicated that he was not on the same page as Yu Zongzhu and Elder Fan.

Everyone understood.

Tiānhào Lóu's interior is not a monolithic entity. The hearts of cultivators from the Demonic Path are unfathomable, and internal conflicts within it are greater than those in other sects.

If this person colludes with Yu and Fan, and counting this person, Heaven's Might Pavilion can simply call upon an ally to open the Wuxiang Immortal Gate without going to such great lengths.

It's not just the Dao and Buddha sects who benefited from the demise of the Wu Xiang Xian Men. The Demon sect also gained a lot back then. Tian Hao Lou doesn't hesitate to deal with any remnants of the Wu Xiang Xian Men.

To prevent the Wu Xiang Xian Men from resurfacing, seems to be the consensus of all major sects in Zhongyuan. Otherwise, the traces of the Wu Xiang Xian Men wouldn't have been erased so thoroughly.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The remnants of the Wuxiang Immortal Sect have infiltrated Tianhao Tower, establishing their own lineage. The most dangerous place is also the safest; as the ancients say, truth be told.

When people talked, the man with the sword always kept silent.

He coughed lightly, and the swordsman spoke in a low voice: "To my knowledge, the headmaster of the Qu Yangshan lineage should only be at the middle stage of Nascent Soul. Observing your fellow daoist's supernatural powers, they are definitely not a recent breakthrough. Has your fellow daoist been hiding behind the scenes all this time"

“I am Qiyang Mountain's chief, all of you who are devoid of the way,” the white-haired old man nodded.

The man with his back to the sword was surprised, "You've been hiding for so long in front of Yu Fan and the others"

“The old master passed down a little trick, nothing special,” Zhu Wudao said nonchalantly, without elaborating.

After a moment, Zhu Wudao retracted his hands, allowing the spirit array to evolve on its own. He sensed the outside world and let out a long sigh. “Mo Dao and the others personally intervened, so there’s no need to worry! The situation is settled, and we should also begin.”

His voice trailed off, and Zhu Wudao recalled something. He looked at the strange-faced man and asked, "Where is the Poison King now"

The Odd-Faced Man pinched his fingers and calculated, "My master and I set up an illusionary array outside. If nothing goes wrong, he should be lured to the depths of Manzhou now."

"That's good, the Poison King can't make much of a splash on his own!"

All the masters of the various sects nodded in agreement. "As long as we can distract the Poison King for some time, even if the Wuxiang Immortal Sect appears and lures him over, by the time word reaches Jinyu Prefecture, it will be too late. We have ample time."

As they communicated, shouts of battle had already shaken the air outside Tenglong Cliff.

'Bang!'

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

'Bang!'

'Bong!'

Suddenly, the sound of drums arose within Mount Taigu Gate.

The drumbeat grew faster and faster with each beat.

This is no ordinary drum; it seems to come from the earth itself, commanding mountains to rise. The sound is deep and resonant, not sharp, yet those who hear it can clearly feel the urgency contained within its rhythm. Their spirits are shaken, their very breath caught in their chests.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

As the drums sounded, everyone in Taoyue Gate was filled with alarm.

This is the Taishan Offering Drum, built atop the main peak. It was personally constructed by the founding ancestor of the Taiyue Gate, and while not a precious artifact, it holds great significance for the Taiyue Gate.

Only during the most perilous times would the Tai Yue Gate sound the Tai Yue sacrificial drum. Since the Tai Yue Gate grew into the overlord of Nan Zhou, the drum had not been sounded for countless years within the sect.

When Taiyue Men disciples first entered the sect, they were told of the existence of the Taiyue Drumming, but they had never heard its sound.

As soon as the ceremonial drum sounded, regardless of their cultivation level or reason, all those in and around Taoyue Gate gathered immediately at the main peak.

To make matters worse, nightfall came without any warning.

In the darkness, it seemed as if hundreds of ghosts were prowling about, causing the disciples of Taiyue Gate to panic even more.

Everyone knows something happened within the sect, but no one expected the trouble to come from inside. Did the protective mountain formation, so carefully maintained, become useless

For a time, the Taiyue Sect was in disarray, with streaks of light flashing from all directions as they rushed towards the main peak.

Unknown to them, these people have become even more conspicuous targets.

The lower-ranking disciples of Taiyue Gate were powerless against the invaders. Massacre after massacre unfolded, with streaks of escaping light extinguished one after another, occasionally punctuated by a short, choked cry.

Most died silently, like the guards at the mountain gate.

The invaders slaughtered the lower-ranked disciples wantonly, finding no satisfaction. They unanimously turned their attention to Taiyue Gate's main peak. Taiyue Gate's experts reacted swiftly, with most gathering on the main peak and activating an array formation.

At this moment, the Xuan Tian Xuan Array had enveloped Taiyue Sect's main peak, but darkness couldn't swallow it whole. There, a glimmer of Xuan Huang light flickered.

The Muru Heavenly Profound Formation can only destroy the mountain-guarding formation. The main peak of Taoyue Gate still has an independent formation.

However, the sealing power of the Eight Diagrams Heavenly Formation is the same for all.

The main peak's grand formation was also enveloped in darkness. The yellow light seemed thin and dim. The visions here were impossible to see from the outside, let alone transmit messages.

Please note that I only translated the text within the tags, as instructed. I left the HTML tags untouched. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Where did Lao Gui go!"

Darkness suddenly appeared, followed by two streaks of red and white light.

White light in front, red glow behind.

The red glow was indeed Qi Ling Dong's master. After searching for a while, he had harvested quite a bit. He thought that all the Tai Yue Gate masters had already fled to the main peak. Unexpectedly, he discovered a sneaky fellow.

Even better, this person has a grudge against him!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The white-robed man was a burly fellow with a face like a weathered red jujube. Upon seeing the weeping spirit cave master, his eyes widened in fury: "It's you!"

The master of Qilin Cave sneered, "Back then, when you guys were clamoring to level my Qilin Cave and drive me out of Nan Prefecture, did you ever think there would be a day like this"

As soon as the words left his mouth, the Lord of Weeping Spirit Cave shot a red light from his palm.

The red light was abnormally bright, and it was a red flower, shaped like a trumpet flower, hanging in the air, its mouth facing directly at Lao Gui.

'Woooo...'

>

A strange gust of wind blew from the Flower Heart, with red light flickering.

There was no grand offensive.

But the moment the wind picked up, Lao Gui acted as if facing a powerful enemy. Without hesitation, he lunged towards the ground with all his might. "Boom!" A thunderous sound echoed as he smashed a large crater into the solid mountain.

Then, Chi Lao Gui’s body flashed with yellow light and he merged with the rocks, instantly disappearing into the ground. At the same time, the pit deepened, rising higher than its original height, forming a distinct bulge.

The texture of the drum was noticeably different from the surrounding mountains, with regular patterns that resembled a shield carved from stone.

'Bang! Bang! Bang!'

A series of explosions erupted, causing dozens of knife-shaped cracks to instantly appear on the drum's surface. As the fissures opened, a few illusory sword shadows flashed past.

The drum package collapsed with a deafening roar.

A muffled grunt echoed inside.

Seeing that he couldn't force out the old ghost, the master of Qiling Cave chanted a spell, and the red flower suddenly swelled, becoming as large as a hill, like a giant bell, aimed at the direction the old ghost was escaping, and crashed down.

...However.

Just as the red flower was about to fall, the ground suddenly cracked open. A black beam shot into the sky, and a stone tablet flew out from beneath the earth.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The stone tablet is square on all sides, bearing no inscription or runes, save for the two characters "Ding Feng".

'Boom!'

A deafening roar.

The red flower and the Dingfeng stele smashed into each other, one falling downward and the other surging upward. The dazzling red light was struck, spreading out and dyeing half the sky crimson.

Because it was in the dark, the sound of the Ding Feng Bell was not apparent.

But the red flower paused, unable to let go.

The master of the Spirit-Wailing Cave didn't expect any unexpected guests, his face changed slightly, but it was too late to remedy the situation.

"Whoosh!"

The stone tablet shot into the air, heading straight for the main peak.

The master of Qiling Cave hesitated for a moment, abandoning his pursuit. He raised his head and coldly looked towards the peak master of Taiyue Gate. Within the yellow light formed by the large formation, several figures flickered in and out of sight.

It was their joint effort that saved the people.

At this time.

A ripple of emptiness appeared beside the weeping spirit cave's master, manifesting a human figure.

"Don't say your move was too slow."

The tone of the Crying Spirit Cave master was not pleased.

This person is none other than Mo Xingdao. If he had not hesitated and acted immediately just now, he would have definitely been able to capture the late Old Ghost.

Indecisiveness, how can one become the number one solitary cultivator of the Northern Wasteland

“Are you hurt”

Mo Xingdao did not answer, but asked the master of Qiling Cave in return.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The master of the Weeping Spirit Cave didn't expect Mo Xingdao to be so perceptive. He reluctantly nodded, "I was tricked by the Poison King."

“The Poison King”

Mo Xingdao was surprised. Seeing that the master of Qilingdong didn't want to say more, he stopped asking and followed his gaze towards the main peak, "I need to guard against others breaking through."

This is an explanation for what just happened.

Their objective wasn't to eliminate the skilled fighters of Taiyue Sect. They aimed to ensure secrecy and encircle Taiyue Sect on its main peak, preventing any information from leaking out.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The Weeping Spirit Cave Master reluctantly accepted this explanation.

On the main peak.

The disciples of Taiyue Men are mourning everywhere.

Those who luckily made it to the main peak wore no smiles on their faces. Many of their relatives and friends were slaughtered by the invaders, some falling into the hands of demons and being doomed to an endless underworld.

The Yuan Infants guarding the mountain gate gathered together, exerting all their strength to maintain the great formation. This was their last line of defense.

These people centered around a wrinkled old man.

They now had no time for anger, they had to find a way out.

At this moment, a figure broke through the air, his voice panicked: "Grand Elder, the transmission formation is disabled, and someone has already tampered with the mountain gate!"

The old man was none other than the current Grand Elder of Taiyue Gate. His cultivation had reached the peak of the Yuan Ying mid-stage, though he could no longer break through. His divine sense had already reached the stage of transformation, making him a renowned figure in the cultivation world.

Upon hearing this terrible news, the crowd was in an uproar.

The Great Elder's expression remained calm, his voice soft but audible to every person present. "Everyone, remain calm. During this chaotic time, I have already alerted the Sect Master. We only need to defend the main peak, and we will be able to await reinforcements, counterattack the enemy, and avenge our loved ones!"

These words stabilized the troops' morale.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

The disciples of Taiyue Gate were not so panicked.

The elder, with his eyes half-closed, seemed to be asleep but not asleep, just like an ordinary old man.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

None had noticed that his gaze pierced through the ranks, fixed on the Asura Hell beyond the main peak.

Those Taigu Men disciples were still living beings just a moment ago.

His eyes were not entirely calm. Though he had sent away his most promising disciples with various excuses, seeing these innocent and unjustly deceased disciples, he couldn't help but feel heartache.

These disciples never could have imagined that they were abandoned by the respected Grand Elder and Sect Master, becoming outcasts of their sect!

This plan began with the goal of eliminating any remaining disciples of the Wuxiang Xianmen.

Although the mastermind behind the plan was Master Zi Lei, the proprietor of the Eight Views Garden, both he and Yue Ling Tian couldn't find a reason to refuse. In fact, they readily agreed without any hesitation at all.

After this incident, the Tai Yue Men were qualified to enter the South China Sea Immortal Palace!

The reason why the Eight Views Garden and the Ganlu Zen Temple have been flourishing for so long is because of a secret realm in the South Sea Immortal Palace.

Both major sects had Divine Transformation cultivators stationed there, jointly controlling the South Sea Immortal Palace and leaving no room for outsiders to intervene. Every generation of powerful cultivators could enter the palace to increase their chances of advancement and breakthrough.

Who can enter the South China Sea Immortal Palace depends entirely on the two major sects.

As the saying goes, Taiyue Gate wouldn't have become the overlord of Nanzhou without the covert support of the Eight Scenic Views.

Even so, the Eight Views didn't generously give them a spot.

Purple Lightning Realman promised that, from then on, the South Sea Immortal Palace would open its doors and allow one spot in the Eight Views Gathering for Taoyue Gate!

Who could refuse such terms
