es from the Shanhai Split Sect appearing, don't blame me for being ruthless!"As soon as the words left his lips, Dao Tianyun flicked his wide sleeves and turned to leave.However, a "thump" sound came...Although there is almost a month left until the grand competition of the Wenda Sect, as one of the biggest events in the myriad Dao realms, a large number of cultivators have been arriving at Wentao Heaven from all directions.

After all, it's rare to have such an opportunity to gather so many cultivators together. Besides coming to watch the grand competition of the Question Dao Sect, this is also a great opportunity for trading.

However, the cultivators who have arrived now only belong to some small and medium-sized forces, as well as individual cultivators.

The real powerhouses, such as the other eight major sects of the Nine Great Sects, some prominent families, and even people from the Dao Divine Palace, wouldn't appear until the day the competition officially began.

As the host, the Zhudao Sect naturally dispatched many disciples to be responsible for receiving and arranging these cultivators.

Dao Tianyou is one of them.

Although this made him a bit unhappy, it was said that Tian Yun himself had personally named him to go there, so he could only bear it.

As for the various branches of the Wenda Sect who will be participating in the upcoming grand competition, they are all making the most of this last month to further improve their strength as much as possible, so that they can have a better chance of winning.

The Mountain and Sea Divisions also naturally follow the same principle.

In fact, they didn't really care about this big match originally.

Because this was their first true departure from the world, they realized that while witnessing a vast expanse of land, their former selves were nothing more than frogs at the bottom of a well!

This vast world far exceeded their imagination. Their meager strength, in the thousands of realms, let alone within the Queshan Sect itself, could only be considered bottom-tier.

Although the harsh reality left them both somewhat disheartened, they had to admit their skills were inferior. As a result, they held little hope for the competition.

But ever since they were provoked and scorned by various sects, especially after the Tianyun Sect severely wounded Lao He and Liu Tianren, they couldn't swallow this breath no matter what.

Now, every disciple of the Shan Hai Fen Zong has gone through countless battles. They are true survivors who have walked out from mountains of corpses and seas of blood. They are those who survived the Shan Hai Catastrophe!

Although their strength may not be great, they are definitely not pushovers!

While they may not be as strong individually compared to other disciples, it is rumored that there will also be team battles in this grand competition.

This finally gave them a glimmer of hope, perhaps their only chance to hold their heads high.

They were able to make their way from the Nanshan Prefecture of the Shanhai Realm all the way to the Dahuang Realm. While most of the credit goes to Jiang Yun, their own efforts and perseverance also played a part.

To temper them, Jiang Yun deliberately gave them a formation—the Nine Blood Linked Array!

This formation is their biggest reliance!

Over the years they spent in the Desolate Realm, besides their individual cultivation, they would spend the rest of their time familiarizing themselves with the formation in groups of nine.

To put it mildly, the Nine Blood Chain Formation has now been deeply ingrained in their bones and souls. It allows them to wield its power to the fullest even with their eyes closed.

With this formation, nine Dao Spirits unite to fight against the Earth Protectors; Nine Earth Protectors unite to fight against Heaven's Favors; Nine Heaven's Favors unite to fight against Dao Nature!

Therefore, during this final period of time, they concentrated all their efforts on formations.

As for the disciples who definitely wouldn't participate in the war, such as those from the original Yaoshending sect, they, led by Guan Yiming, started day and night refining pills to prepare for any eventuality.

In short, within the entire Shan Hai Fen Zong now, from elders like Lan Hua Zhao Xia Zhong Xing to ordinary disciples, everyone is holding their breath, ready to release it all in the grand competition.

And Dao Tianyou, who had witnessed all this with his own eyes, felt a growing bitterness in his heart as the day of the competition approached.

When the great competition was held by Dao Tianyun, the decree forbidding any demon clan from appearing in the Shan Hai division felt like a mountain pressing down on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe.

Although he had already discussed it with Da Lian'er, Da Lian'er was also powerless to do anything about it.

After all, the Dao Tianyun is the next Sect Master.

Disobeying his orders, even if he lets you off now, once he becomes the sect master, a simple word from him could send you to eternal damnation.

Out of desperation, Dao Tianyou even had the audacity to seek out An Changzai again. However, An Changzai deliberately avoided him, leaving Dao Tianyou truly helpless.

During this time, he had wanted to tell the disciples of the Shan Hai Fen Zong about this more than once. However, seeing them all practically struggling to cultivate with their lives on the line, he just couldn't bring himself to speak. He could only swallow his words back down again and again.

Today, Dao Tianyou once again arrived at the Shanhai branch of the sect. He did not appear in person, but stood in the air, looking down upon the people who were still diligently working.

After staring for a long time, Dao Tianyou suddenly stomped his foot in anger and turned to leave. He returned to the main sect and went straight to Dao Tiyun's residence.

Standing at the entrance of Daotian Yun, Daitian You waited for a full three days before Daotian Yun finally appeared.

"While seeing Dao Tianyou, Dao Tiyun slightly frowned, a hint of displeasure appearing on his face. He said, “Junior brother Tianyou, if I’m not mistaken, you should be responsible for receiving fellow cultivators who came to our sect to observe the ceremony. How come you have time to run to my place”

Dao Tianyou, with a beaming face, bowed deeply to Dao Tianyun and said, "Brother, I have something to discuss with you."

What's up

"It's not a big deal, just about that thing you told me last time, could you be a little more flexible"

Dao Tianyun retracted the displeasure from his face and said impassively, "What kind of workaround"

Dao Tianyou carefully said, "The strength of the Shan Hai Fen Zong faction is simply not enough. After the grand competition ends, they will definitely be sent back."

"So, I was thinking, maybe brother could be a little flexible. During the grand competition, allow the demon race from our mountain and sea faction to participate, but I can guarantee that none of our demon disciples will take part in the competition. Only human disciples will compete."

I just wanted to show them the strength of other branches, so they could work harder when they returned.

"As long as Senior Brother is willing to show mercy, Junior Brother will definitely remember this kindness. From now on, if Senior Brother has any requests, Junior Brother will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

After hearing Dao Tianyou's words, Dao Tianyun gazed deeply at Dao Tianyou. After a moment, a hint of mocking smile gradually appeared on his face. "Junior brother," he said, "could it be that if I didn't show mercy this time, you wouldn't have obeyed my orders in the future"

"No, no, no!" Dao Tianyou hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Of course I didn't mean that. It was my junior brother who spoke incorrectly."

"Alright, senior brother, as long as you're willing to show mercy, I'll agree to any condition you have!"

Dao Tianyun's eyebrows twitched slightly as he said, "Any conditions"

Dao Tianyou nodded and said, "Yes, any conditions!"

"Haha!" Tian Yun suddenly burst into laughter. "Tian You, junior brother, whether it's your identity or your strength, you are worlds apart from me. What conditions do you think I could possibly put forward to you"

At this point, Dao Tianyun's smile vanished abruptly, and a murderous intent crept into his voice: "I'll say it again, during the grand competition, if there are demon races from the Shanhai Split Sect appearing, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

As soon as the words left his lips, Dao Tianyun flicked his wide sleeves and turned to leave.

However, a "thump" sound came from behind him.

Dao Tian You knelt directly in front of Dao Tian Yun and said, "Brother Tian Yun, I, please beg you!"

……

Just as Dao Tianyou knelt down, in a certain world of the demon Daotian, a patch of barren plain was suddenly illuminated by a burst of light.

Three figures walked out from the glow of the setting sun!
