Chapter 723 - 567: The Eve of the Final Battle

Near Immortal Fate City, before an old man and a young girl could escape.A beam of dark light, exuding a fierce aura, arrived before them in the blink of an eye. The Cyan Leaf Dharma Ship tottered, falling to the ground before it could take off.

Both fell, covered in dust.

Left Envoy Xiangg waved his hand casually, sending a terrifying ghost head towards the two, as if to devour them.

The old and the young, seeing this, instantly fell into despair.

Yet at this moment.

A thousand miles away from Immortal Fate City, Qin Ming was leisurely sitting within the Lingxiao Imperial Carriage, sipping spirit tea and browsing a jade scroll in his hand.

Suddenly, Qin Ming’s brows furrowed, as his divine thought, comparable to the Divinity Transformation Stage, detected the presence of the Blood Realm’s demonic path.

The next instant, his divine thought spread out, and everything happening near Immortal Fate City was within his grasp.

With just a slight movement of Qin Ming’s divine thought power, an invisible force forcibly halted the Golden Core Demon Cultivator mid-air.

At the city gate.

The old and the young were already bracing for death when they saw that fiendish demon, frozen with a terrified expression, abruptly stopping in a manner akin to a paused image.

The demonic head he released instantaneously dissolved like foam, disappearing without a trace.

This eerie scene entirely exceeded the understanding of the two Qi Cultivation Novices...

After a moment, the old and the young, seeing the Sheep-Horned Demon Cultivator still motionless in the air,

began to sweat profusely and breathe heavily.

The old man hurriedly activated the Cyan Leaf Dharma Ship, escaping hurriedly with the girl.

After the two had left for a few moments.

Ripples spread in the void, and Qin Ming’s figure gradually emerged, as if appearing out of thin air.

He glanced in the direction the old and young had left, then focused his gaze on the immobilized Sheep-Horned Demon Cultivator.

This demon cultivator, known as Left Envoy Xiangg, showed a terrified expression. Facing Qin Ming now, he was as powerless as those two Qi Cultivation Novices before him, devoid of any thought of resistance.

With a calm expression, Qin Ming casually set up a soundproof barrier.

Then, he placed his large hand on the Sheep-Horned Demon Cultivator’s head, beginning to perform the Soul Searching Technique on him.

With Qin Ming’s current divine thought intensity, he could perform soul searching without causing complete death.

A moment later.

Qin Ming’s gaze flickered incessantly.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat beside him asked, "Master, what is it? Has something changed? Why did this group of demonic cultivators suddenly appear here?"

"Hmm... This person’s cultivation level isn’t high enough to know much insider information; he was merely dispatched here in advance. However... it seems the Blood Refining Demon Sect has some special plan..." Qin Ming said calmly.

Immediately after.

He did not kill the "Left Envoy Xiangg" immediately, but rather devised a plan in his mind.

Qin Ming planned to use the Demon Infant to possess him, and then use him to gather demonic path intelligence.

He was just troubled about not finding a demonic path cultivator; this person’s status and cultivation level were just right. Before the battle, the Blood Realm’s Demon Sect was bound to issue orders to him.

The next instant.

The Demon Infant on the black lotus platform in his Central Palace Dantian gave a sinister smile, transformed into a black light, and flew into the head of the Sheep-Horned Demon Cultivator, instantly devouring his divine soul and replacing him...

After finishing all of this, Qin Ming, with the Heaven-Devouring Rat, silently disappeared into the void without a trace.

The late-stage Golden Core "Left Envoy Xiangg", then slightly adjusted to the unfamiliar body, showing a contemplative expression.

The few demon cultivators who had gone into the city to investigate seemed to sense something amiss and quickly flew towards Left Envoy Xiangg.

"Reporting to Left Envoy Xiangg, this small city is deserted, with no other anomalies found."

"Over on your side... did something happen?"

Left Envoy Xiangg said flatly, "Nothing, just two ants, already dealt with by me. We will continue to lurk here and wait for contact from the Holy Sect Demon Monarch."

"Understood!"

...

Two days later.

Qin Ming had already returned to Wangyue Island.

He sat within the great hall of the Cyan Wood Pavilion, reflecting on the useful information he had soul-searched from the mind of that Golden Core Demon Cultivator.

"It seems the Demon Sect is coming with full force, determined to mobilize completely."

"The Blood Realm’s five Divinity Transformation Sects: Blood Refining Demon Sect, Ghostly Palace, Longevity Temple, Infinite Mountain, and Ten Thousand Souls Cliff, under the personal leadership of the Divinity Transformation Demon Venerable, are about to launch the final descent... However, the exact location of the Eye of the Void is still unknown..."

"It looks like we’ll have to wait for the higher-ups of the Blood Realm to make contact with the Golden Core Demon Cultivator to learn the next specific moves."

Qin Ming immediately took out a blank jade scroll and drafted the intelligence information he obtained, then had Hua Tianxiong rush it back to the Great Jin Alliance.

Due to the approaching war, special communication channels have also been established between the Five Great Cultivation Realms.

Through the Long-Distance Transmission Array, urgent intelligence can quickly be delivered.

Qin Ming then entered closed-door cultivation once again, directly practicing the "Profound Crow Void Escape Technique."

This cultivation technique, truly a top-tier technique of the Ancient Immortal Sect, possesses powers beyond imagination; yet, the pain during the soul division was something Qin Ming remembered vividly...

Several months later.

A pitch-black crow flew out from Qin Ming’s cave mansion, shuttling through Spirit Island with incredible tunneling speed, instantly piercing through the void, an unbelievable sight.

Moreover, this crow looked no different from the spiritual crows existing outside, vividly alive, with ebony feathers glistening, eyes turning lively to observe the surroundings.

This is the spiritual crow Qin Ming cultivated successfully from the "Profound Crow Void Escape Technique," materialized from his divine thought.

Based on the foundation of Divine Thought Transformation, achieving Divine Thought Materialization, as if creating something from nothing.

However, reaching this step is limited to transforming into Spiritual Crows, approximately five in number, still far from the three thousand Crows recorded on the jade scroll.

Moreover, this is with his divine thought reaching a level comparable to early-stage Divinity Transformation.

After cultivating this secret technique, he gained a clearer understanding.

"I fear this secret technique was created by ancient cultivators above the Divinity Transformation stage..."

...

Time passed slowly, and months later.

In the deserted Immortal Fate City, ’Left Envoy’ who was meditating in an underground chamber, suddenly opened his eyes, a glint flashing in them, and a strange smile appeared on his lips.

"Is it finally about to begin?"

He then got up and went outside, ordering the low-tier demonic cultivators,

"Prepare to greet the Demon Monarch with me!"

The demonic cultivators outside were extremely excited, immediately responding in agreement.

These days, they had been lying low for this very moment, hadn’t they?

"Brothers! We’re finally going to see the light! The opportunity to make great contributions is here!"

If they could receive rewards from the Demon Monarch, even a few Blood Pills would suffice to dramatically increase their cultivation.

In Immortal Fate City, they had already secretly erected a Guiding Platform to facilitate more demonic descents and stabilize the Void Passage.

The Left Envoy, possessed by the Qin Ming Demon Infant, led a dozen demonic cultivators to the platform waiting.

Not long after.

Rumble!

Anomaly in the sky’s vault opened wide, a black vortex twisted and rotated as if something massive was about to emerge.

Within moments, a pitch-black, hundred-zhang Demon Ship emerged from the void anomaly, steadily hovering above the Guiding Platform.

On the Demon Ship, it was crowded with demonic cultivators and creatures that looked fervently excited, all with cultivation above Foundation Establishment.

Even Golden Core stage demonic cultivators were in the majority.

These demonic cultivators’ attire varied, clearly not from the same demonic sect.

At the bow of the ship stood an old man with wrinkled skin and crane-like hair, wearing a blood robe, his cultivation surprisingly at the early-stage Nascent Soul.

The ’Left Envoy’ seeing this person, instantly tensed up!

Based on the soul search acquired memories, Qin Ming Demon Infant naturally recognized this person, and going forward with his subordinates, bowed and said,

"Subordinate greets Elder Candle Yin Demon Monarch!"

"The tasks assigned by the elder have been fully prepared by the disciple."

Candle Yin the Old Demon looked around with cloudy eyes, then said indifferently, "Hmm, very good."

"In ten days, the Supreme Elder will lead the Holy Sect to descend to the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, at which time other sects’ armies will secretly gather through the void passage and then converge with our sect to encircle the Spirit Habitat Islands."

The ’Left Envoy’ heard this and a barely noticeable glint flashed in his eyes, he then respectfully asked, "Dare I ask the Demon Monarch if we are to open an Eye of the Void here? Do we need to send backup to guard it?"

Candle Yin the Old Demon said, "The two Eyes of the Void from our sect will be personally overseen by the Supreme Elder and will be directly opened at the Spirit Habitat Islands."

"The other five Eyes of the Void from the four sects will be set, three locations in Great Li, and two in Great Jin’s Divine Dao Mountain."

"You all shall continue to wait here to prepare to guide other sect allies’ descent."

’Left Envoy’ felt a slight movement in his heart and couldn’t help but think: Is it finally coming?

The Divinity Transformation Demon Venerable of the Blood Refining Demon Sect personally descends to the Southern Wilderness, this time it’s not Great Jin holding the line against the Southern Wilderness.

But taking the lead instead...

...

On Wangyue Island, Qin Ming sat in the main hall of the Cyan Wood Pavilion.

After pondering for a moment, he summoned Mo Lingwei and Hua Tianxiong inside.

"Greetings, Lord Island Master!"

Qin Ming waved his hand, "No need, have the high-ranking members of the Four Nations Alliance come secretly to meet me."

Hua Tianxiong and Mo Lingwei glanced at each other upon hearing this, and then asked, "Lord Island Master... is it..."

"That’s right, the war is about to start, in just ten days." Qin Ming did not hide, "You each should make arrangements, but do not let the news leak out to avoid arousing suspicion from the demonic path."

"Yes! We will take care of it right away."

Just two days later.

In the Cyan Wood Pavilion.

Familiar figures from the four nations of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm had all arrived, including Wei Wuya, Guu Qingzhao, Fang Han, Huangfu Qii, and Ancestor Pei Qing among the Golden Core cultivators.

Upon learning of the demonic path’s plan, with two massive Eyes of the Void about to descend on the Southern Wilderness,

and with the Divinity Transformation Demon Venerable descending afterward, their expressions were completely unsustainable.

Wei Wuya hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then... Elder Qin, should we seek aid from the Alliance?"

Qin Ming, with a calm expression, waved his hand, "Forget it, the Great Jin side is the same, at that time they may need our help instead."

"So... you gather the cultivator army and head to the frontier near Immortal Fate City, by then I will notify several Nascent Soul fellows to catch these Blood Realm demonic path members like turtles in a jar."

"As for the Spirit Nest Islands, I will personally handle it."

"Yes! We will follow the True Monarch’s orders!" The high-ranking members of the Four Nations Alliance dared not question Qin Ming’s words and went to carry them out swiftly.
