Chapter 397
There has always been a saying in the Eastern Province, "When All-encompassing meets Senluo, only one will remain."
As long as people from these two Great Teachings meet, they are bound to fight!
However, it seems that due to a rule set by the Founding Ancestors, as long as the other party concedes, acknowledges, and states that the cultivation methods of the other Great Teaching are the most correct, then they will immediately let the other party go.
Of course, people from the Senluo Demonic Sect and the All-encompassing Sect would never concede or say such things. If they did and this got back to their Great Teaching...
Anyone who did such a thing, no matter who they are, even the most talented disciple of the Great Teaching or the descendant of the Sect Hierarch, would be immediately expelled from the Great Teaching.
And once they do so, their own Great Teaching would certainly know, because the other party would force them into doing it to disgrace their Great Teaching and would definitely publicize the matter.
Now, they encountered people from the Senluo Sect.
Cao Zhen realized he was truly fated to be busy. He initially thought that being with three people from the All-encompassing Sect should deter others from provoking them, yet they ran into these people from the Senluo Demonic Sect.
When these two groups clash, there's no need to think; they are definitely going to fight.
The Double Sword Fairy gazed at the distant figures, focusing on the leader of the other side, her expression instantly turning grave as she said solemnly, "It's people from the Senlo Demonic Sect, and Ghost Shadow Demon is leading them. This spells trouble."
Although the Senluo Demonic Sect doesn't place as much emphasis on Body Refining as the All-encompassing Sect, they still value it more than other Great Teachings in the Eastern Province.
Moreover, Ghost Shadow Demon is a pinnacle existence in the Immortal Path Domain, and even in an environment where everyone can use both immortal and demonic qi, she is no match for Ghost Shadow Demon.
Ghost Shadow Demon is undoubtedly one of the top five formidable existences in the Senluo Demonic Sect today. Who would have thought such a master would also enter the River of All Realms?
And now, with her injuries, even if it's just a competition of physical strength, she may not be able to suppress Ghost Shadow Demon.
What's more, the other side has ten people, even if some of them are at the Indestructible Period and can't use immortal qi, they can't deploy their Domain, and the difference between those at the Indestructible Period and those in their Immortal Path Domain isn't that great.
This really spells trouble unless...
The Double Sword Fairy glanced to the side at Ye Liangchen. Ye Liangchen had voluntarily chosen to be with them; when the people from the Senluo Demonic Sect make a move, Ye Liangchen should intervene, right?
On the other side, several people from the Senluo Demonic Sect saw the four from the All-encompassing Sect, especially noticing the injuries on the four, and each of their faces showed a look that seemed somewhat gloating.
Among the ten, led by Ghost Shadow Demon, he cackled sinisterly, "Isn't this the Double Sword Fairy from the All-encompassing Sect? How come you look so pathetically disheveled?"
As he laughed, he sauntered towards the several from the Double Sword Fairy group, his tone mockingly sarcastic, "Isn't your All-encompassing Sect always saying that body refining is paramount?
Now, in the River of All Realms, where immortal qi and demonic qi cannot be used, you should be more dominant. No, I misspoke; you should be invincible, so why do you look so pathetically disheveled?
It seems your body-refining technique is lacking as well."
Ghost Shadow Demon's eyes swept swiftly over the faces of the four across from them. He knew of the Double Sword Fairy; after all, outside, she is definitely not his opponent.
He also recognized the Double Whip Immortal, who was just so-so; as for the other woman and man, he didn't know who they were.
After all, in a Great Teaching, there are so many people, he can't know all of them.
The four people across from them, while on his side, had ten, and all of them had injuries. Is there a better chance to humiliate them than now?
With a signal from Ghost Shadow Demon's eyes, people from the Senluo Demonic Sect quickly spread out, surrounding the four from the Double Sword Fairy group in the center to prevent them from escaping.
At this moment, with an expression of having everything under control, he looked at the Double Sword Fairy and spoke again: "Double Sword, you belong to a so-called prestigious Great Teaching, and we are a demonic sect.
Our demonic sect has always been at odds with you, and under normal circumstances, we would have already attacked and killed you by now.
But because the Founding Ancestor of our Senluo Demonic Sect had conflicts with your Ancestor, though they were once fellow disciples.
Thus, in consideration of the two Ancestors, I can give you a chance."
As he said this, he raised his hand, pulling out a piece of paper from his Qiankun Bag, and waved it in front of the four, saying, "As long as you write on this that the All-encompassing Sect is not as good as our Senluo Demonic Sect, that your cultivation methods are wrong, and our Senluo Demonic Sect's cultivation methods are correct.
Then sign and stamp it, and I can let you go. How about it?"
Before the Double Sword Fairy could speak, behind her, the Double Whip Immortal already shouted angrily: "Ghost Shadow Demon, you're dreaming!
Stop spouting nonsense; don't you just want to fight? Then let's fight!
Don't think that just because you outnumber us, we are afraid of you!"
As he spoke, he grasped his long whip, pointing provocatively in the direction of Ghost Shadow Demon across from him.
They may be fewer in number, but among them is Ye Liangchen. Although Ye Liangchen isn't part of the All-encompassing Sect, and even though he said he would be with them, who knows if Ye Liangchen would shy away from offending the Senluo Demonic Sect, and dare not make a move.
The best way is to provoke Ghost Shadow Demon directly, forcing the Senluo Demonic Sect people to make a move, so that they would instinctively consider Ye Liangchen as one of the All-encompassing Sect's people and also attack Ye Liangchen.
