There were three auras that were the most powerful, and they were all in the Rune Seed Realm.
Among them, the most powerful was an old man with white hair and a crane-like face, who had already reached the middle stage of the Rune Seed Realm.
He glanced at the other two strong people, who were also exuding Rune Seed Realm aura, and smiled, “Brother Wan, Sister Yue, you’re finally here.”
One of them, a middle-aged man with a powerful aura, spoke vigorously and laughed, “As it concerns the survival of our sect, Rashamon Sect naturally takes it seriously. After receiving the news from your esteemed sect, we immediately set out.”
Rashamon Sect was one of the three major powers in South Nether Prefecture. Its strength and heritage were slightly inferior to that of Sky Brilliance Sect but it also had a middle-stage Rune Seed Realm expert.
This middle-aged man was Rashamon Sect’s Deputy Sect Master, Wan Yingzhi. He had not been in the Rune Seed Realm early stage for long and was invited by Sky Brilliance Sect to come here and jointly attack the Demon Suppression Army.
An elderly, white-haired woman beside him also nodded, “Indeed, our Cloud Jade Pavilion also attaches great importance to this joint attack. However, Brother Li, how do you plan to take action? Although our strength is not weak, we only have thirteen people who came in haste. If we are not fully prepared, I’m afraid we won’t even be able to break the defenses of their battleships, let alone block the enemy.”
This elderly woman was the Supreme Elder of Cloud Jade Pavilion. She had originally planned to go into seclusion, but hearing of the Demon Suppression Army’s arrival, she had to pick up the burden again.
Among the crowd, Sky Brilliance Sect’s Supreme Elder, Li Quanshou, had the strongest strength. Additionally, Sky Brilliance Sect had taken the lead on this matter, so everyone’s eyes were focused on him.
Li Quanshou smiled slightly and looked around, saying, “What do the two of you think of the terrain here?”
Upon hearing this, both the Deputy Sect Master, Wan Yingzhi, and the elderly woman of Cloud Jade Pavilion were taken aback, as they had hurried here without paying attention to the terrain.
After being reminded by Li Quanshou, they began to check for any special features of the place.
A dozen breaths later, Deputy Sect Master, Wan Yingzhi, frowned, “The Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi here is quite rich, but it still doesn’t compare to where our sects are located. Apart from this, I really can’t see anything remarkable.”
The elderly woman of Cloud Jade Pavilion remained silent, apparently not finding anything special about the place either.
At that moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded, “Supreme Elder, not only is the Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi here more accessible, but there are also three towering peaks, with nine other equally massive peaks connected to it. This kind of terrain is a natural place for laying out Arrays.”
The speaker was a woman in her early twenties, with a gorgeous face, a slender body, and straight legs. She was wearing a white skirt, and she had an ethereal and elegant air about her.
After being reminded by her, the elderly woman of Cloud Jade Pavilion carefully observed the three towering, sword-like peaks beneath her feet, each connected to three other thousand-feet high peaks.
“Haha, this young one has good eyes, spotting the mystery at a glance.” Li Quanshou laughed lightly.
“Thank you for the compliment, Senior Li. The younger generation was just lucky to see a little clue.”
Wan Yingzhi said, “Brother Li, the weakest of the Demon Suppression Army’s battleships is of Treasure rank, with no shortage of Superior Treasure and even spirit-ranked battleships. Will the Array that we hurriedly set up be able to break their defenses?”
As the Deputy Sect Master of Rashamon Sect, he also knew about the Demon Suppression Army of Morigin.
Not only did they have powerful Demon Extermination Generals, but they also had battleships that could travel tens of thousands of miles a day with unparalleled defense.
Among them, the main ships of each legion were at least at the spirit artifact level, and even a Golden Core Realm expert could not break their defenses in a short time.
The other secondary ships were Superior Treasures, and even if they could set up a large Array, it could only deal a blow with the power comparable to the peak of the Rune Seed Realm.
“Brother Wan, don’t worry. I chose this ambush location for a reason.” Li Quanshou stroked his beard and smiled,
“The defense of the Demon Suppression Army’s battleships is indeed terrifying, but it also requires the corresponding strength to fully unleash it.
As for the leader of the Demon Suppression Army, we are ambushing this time, although he is a monster, he is merely at the Golden Body Realm. Even if his combat power is terrifying, he can not fully activate the battleship’s defenses.
Apart from that, the natural terrain here is not inferior to the Nine Peaks of our Sky Brilliance Sect. If we were to arrange the Three Sabers and Nine Swords Array, coupled with the rich Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi here, it would certainly deliver a full-force blow comparable to the peak of the Rune Seed Realm.”
At this point, Li Quanshou showed a confident smile on his face.
The Three Sabers and Nine Swords Array was one of the inheritances of Sky Brilliance Sect. If twelve Rune Seed Realm martial artists were the main array, it could even unleash a power comparable to a True Master of the Golden Core Realm.
The elderly woman of Cloud Jade Pavilion said, “If what Elder Li said is true, we can rely on the Three Sabers and Nine Swords Array to break the defenses of the Demon Suppression Army’s battleships.
But to meet one person’s condition, how can we ensure that the Demon Suppression Army will pass through here?”
Wan Yingzhi also nodded, “South Nether Prefecture is so vast, and the Demon Suppression Army’s target is one of our three sects. The likelihood of them passing through here is minuscule.”
Li Quanshou smiled awkwardly, “I apologize for not informing you in advance. The Demon Suppression Army we’re intercepting this time is coming from Flat Hill City in Dark Cloud Manor, and its target is directly aimed at our Sky Brilliance Sect.
So, they will definitely pass through here, and the likelihood of our successful ambush here is very high.”
Rashamon Sect and Cloud Jade Pavilion’s people suddenly understood. It turned out that Sky Brilliance Sect was trying to use their help to jointly resolve their own crisis.
However, at this point, retreating was clearly impossible.
“Both of you, rest assured. As long as we eliminate this Demon Suppression Army, when other Demon Suppression Armies attack your sects, my Sky Brilliance Sect will not stand idly by,”
Li Quanshou said sincerely.
“Don’t worry, we will do our best, but I hope Elder Li will not go back on his word then.”
“Of course, as long as our three sects join forces and unite, even without the help of the Profound Darkness Sect, we can still preserve our sect inheritance.”
Mentioning the Profound Darkness Sect, everyone’s faces soured.
The Profound Darkness Sect, in order to maintain its own power, had actually retracted its forces, leaving these vassal forces to fend for themselves. This was truly infuriating.
If not for the Profound Darkness Sect, they would not have been targeted by Morigin’s Demon Suppression Army.
At this moment, they were not protected by the Profound Darkness Sect and were instead implicated. Naturally, they had complaints in their hearts.
The eighteenth warship, along with several warships following behind it, boldly passed through the air above South Nether Prefecture.
As the distance to the Sky Brilliance Sect grew closer, Ye Xuan and the other Black-rank Demon Extermination Generals felt both nervous and excited.
Under the leadership of their previous Earth-rank Demon Extermination General, they hadn’t accomplished breaking a sect, only destroying cities at most.
Eventually, during the battle with the White Lotus Sect, their previous general died at the hands of a Rune Seed Realm mid-stage expert.
Now, under Lu Yun’s leadership, they had first destroyed the Fierce Ghost Sect and were currently going to war against the Sky Brilliance Sect, which naturally made them anxious.
After all, the fall of the Fierce Ghost Sect was not much to do with them. They just took advantage of the situation.
But now, they were truly attacking the Sky Brilliance Sect.
“Brother Ye, when will we arrive at the Sky Brilliance Sect? I’m eager to have a good fight.” After patrolling the warship and finding nothing unusual, Qing Hou came over to ask Ye Xuan about the situation.
During Lu Yun’s seclusion, the Star Plate had been entrusted to Ye Xuan.
He took out the Star Plate, and after activating it, a map of the Profound Darkness Domain appeared with a small part of it enlarged. At this time, several yellow points were marked on the map, as well as three conspicuous red points, representing the Sky Brilliance Sect, Rashamon Sect, and Cloud Jade Pavilion respectively.
In addition, a light group was slowly moving towards the direction of the Sky Brilliance Sect.
Ye Xuan looked at the Star Plate and after carefully observing it, he said in a low voice, “According to our current speed, it will take about twelve to thirteen hours.”
“Ah, it seems we still have to wait a while!”
“Alright, hurry back to patrol and prevent any sea beasts from attacking.”
“Alright.”
In this maritime area, there were often powerful sea beasts hovering in the air, always keeping an eye on the human race. When they encountered warships, they would also take the initiative to attack.
On their journey, they had already defeated many powerful sea beasts.
They even encountered a seventh rank sea beast once that Lu Yun had to deal with personally.
Therefore, when Ye Xuan mentioned sea beasts, Qing Hou became more cautious and didn’t take it lightly.
The Black-rank Demon Extermination Generals were responsible for patrolling in turns.
Today, it was his turn to patrol, and if there were any accidents, the responsibility would fall on him. He could not help but be cautious.
An hour later, the eighteenth warship approached a range of rolling mountains.
Standing on the spacious deck outside the warship, one could see twelve massive and magnificent peaks from afar.
Among them, three peaks soared into the sky like pillars, appearing majestic and magnificent..
