The answer from the witch Huan Qianqian relieved some of Zhou Yang's doubts and let him know the real way to quell this evil disaster.
It is obvious that the culprit of this demonic disaster is the "Sky Corpse Master" who has reached the ninth level of Nascent Soul, the "Half-step True Immortal" realm.
As long as this person is eliminated, the remaining demonic cultivators will definitely be defeated and will no longer dare to do evil.
However, even Nie Yushuang, who was at the ninth level of Nascent Soul, was defeated many times by this "Master Tianzhi", which shows how difficult it is to kill this beast.
At least Zhou Yang felt that this goal could not be achieved until reinforcements from other cultivating circles arrived.
And he had a feeling that this "Master of the Heavenly Corpse" must have some powerful trump cards that he had not used yet, otherwise no matter how brilliant his methods were, he would not be so arrogant as to confront several monks from the world of immortality.
In fact, after listening to Huan Qianqian's description, he seriously doubted whether this "Sky Corpse Master" had already connected with some existence in the real demon world and obtained some guarantees from there.
After all, for a demon cultivator like "Master Tianzhi", only the temptation of becoming a real demon in the Tribulation Stage is worth risking at all costs.
But it is almost impossible for a demon cultivator to be promoted to a true demon in the Tribulation Stage in the "Linghuan Realm".
If you think about it, you will know that in order to reach the tribulation stage, even the ninth-level Nascent Soul cultivators like Lu Xuanji had to find ways to enter the [Vault of Heaven Fairyland], a spiritually rich cave world, to retreat.
If it were a demonic cultivator like "Master Tianzhi", there would be no place in the "Linghuan Realm" where the demonic energy was strong enough to support its impact on the Tribulation Stage.
As far as Zhou Yang knows, since the ancient war between immortals and demons, there has never been a true demon in the tribulation stage who was promoted by a human demon cultivator in this "spiritual world".
And even in those ancient times, there were only a few demon cultivators who could advance to the tribulation stage with the help of those real demons in the real demon world.
Therefore, demonic cultivators have never been able to rise in the "Linghuan Realm". In addition to the reason that once they show up, they will be suppressed by immortal cultivators, it is also related to the fact that this path cannot truly achieve the Great Dao.
A ninth-level Nascent Soul demon cultivator like "Master Tianzhi" is already the pinnacle that demon cultivators in this world can reach.
But if there is an intervention from the upper world, the situation may change.
There are so many treasures in the upper realm. It would not be strange if there are any treasures that can help people climb to the fairyland.
After Zhou Yang considered this, he did not stay in the underground ice prison for too long. He quickly left here to meet Xu Tianlin and others. He wanted to inform others of the information he learned and his own speculations, and then everyone brainstormed what to do next.
Walk.
As for Huan Qianqian's request for him to give him the [Demon Marrow Stone] to help heal his injuries, he naturally rejected it without mercy.
He didn't want the witch to recover too quickly, and he even wished that the witch would remain sluggish and weak, so that he wouldn't have to worry too much about her looking for opportunities to bite him back.
In this case, how could he give her something that would help her heal.
At this time, because of Nie Yushuang's sudden departure, Xu Tianlin and others in Bingcheng were also alarmed. When Zhou Yang came out and told the inside story, everyone's expressions changed drastically.
Xu Tianlin immediately couldn't help shouting: "This is terrible. If Zhou Daoyou's news is true, there must have been a spy of the demon cultivator mixed in within the Xuanming Immortal Sect, and the status of the spy must be not low, and it is even possible
…”
Xu Tianlin didn't say clearly what the possibility was, but Zhou Yang and others knew it.
In fact, this is the really tricky thing. If there is a Nascent Soul cultivator who is a traitor, "Master Tianzhi" and other demonic cultivators want to enter the ice peak where the inter-immortal world is located, it will be the same as entering their own home.
Master Qingyang couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that Fellow Daoist Guo and the others are already rushing here at this time. Otherwise, if they still stay there, with the help of the mountain protection formation, they may not be able to hold Lingshan and wait for our return reinforcements."
!”
The "Fellow Daoist Guo" he refers to refers to the eight Nascent Soul monks who came with them to support Beitingzhou's immortal world, but stayed at Bingfeng to rest and wait for news due to different opinions.
After they broke through the Demonic City, they sent the news back and invited those people to come over to Ice City to meet together to deal with the possible conspiracy launched by the Demonic Cultivator.
After receiving their message, those people did rush here as they wished. Calculating from the time, those people should be arriving soon.
"Fellow Daoist Guo's absence is not necessarily a bad thing. Since those demonic cultivators have been planning for a long time and have traitors to help them, once they take action, the mountain-protecting formation will definitely be the first target of their destruction. Without the protection of the mountain-protecting formation, they will face
[Master Tianzhi] This great devil of the ninth level of Nascent Soul, Fellow Daoist Guo and the others are afraid that they will even fall into it!"
Xu Tianlin shook his head, but he did not agree with what Master Qingyang said and did not think it was a bad thing.
After he finished expressing his views, he looked up at everyone and said: "Whether it's good or bad, it's impossible for Guo Daoyou and others to return now. What I should consider now is what to do next.
"
"Assuming that the teleportation array is really destroyed by the demonic cultivators and the arrival of reinforcements is delayed, we should wait and see whether we should continue to advance the front and regain the lost ground occupied by the demonic cultivators, or we should simply defend on the spot and wait until the reinforcements arrive!"
This should have been decided by Nie Yushuang and other monks from the Beiting Continent. However, since Nie Yushuang is not here now, and the Yuanying monks in Ice City have the absolute advantage from the Liuyun Continent, Xu Tianlin raised this matter in the name of discussion.
It's not an overstep.
So after hearing what he said, all the practitioners began to think deeply and thought about the matter seriously.
Because everyone was thinking, the atmosphere seemed a little dull for a while.
After almost a quarter of an hour passed, seeing that no one had expressed their opinions first, Xu Tianlin broke the silence first and said loudly: "Since no one is willing to start, then Xu Tianlin will speak first.
Just have your own opinion.”
"In Xu's opinion, since those magic cultivators are eager to destroy the teleportation array and delay the arrival of reinforcements, it means that they also know that once the reinforcements arrive, they will not be able to stop us if we launch a massive counterattack."
"But even if there is no teleportation array, reinforcements will arrive sooner or later. Those demon cultivators will not know this, but they still do this. What does this mean?"
"Xu secretly thought that this showed that they had secretly planned and carried out an important plan without our knowledge, and this plan has now reached a critical moment and cannot be disturbed, so they will use this method to delay
Our reinforcements have arrived and we will try to complete this plan before the reinforcements arrive."
"And they are confident that before more reinforcements arrive, they can withstand the offensive of everyone I am waiting for here until their secret plan is completed."
"If it is as expected by Xu, once the plan of the demon cultivators succeeds, it will definitely bring them great benefits, great help, and even something that can reverse the entire battlefield situation!"
Zhou Yang couldn't help but nodded, agreeing with Xu Tianlin's speculation.
He had previously speculated on what trump cards the "Sky Corpse Master" had yet to use, and boldly speculated that there might be a shadow of a powerful person from the upper realm behind him.
If his conjecture is true, then what Xu Tianlin said is also logical.
With the intervention of the powerful powers from the upper world, it would not be surprising for the "Sky Corpse Master" to do any big things.
And as if he noticed the change in his expression, a Nascent Soul monk immediately looked at him and said: "Didn't Fellow Daoist Zhou accept the captured witch as a servant? If those demon cultivators are really carrying out some important plan secretly, then as the witch,
It’s impossible for a member of the Demonic Cultivator to not know anything about the situation!”
Zhou Yang glanced at the monk who made the noise and recognized that he was a monk from a major sect in the world of immortality in Beitingzhou. If he remembered correctly, his surname should be Wen.
"That's what Fellow Taoist Literary Master said. Let me first ask Zhou about the witch."
He nodded, and immediately a ray of consciousness fell into the [Dongxuan Pearl], and he asked the witch who was healing her wounds about it.
After a moment, he withdrew his consciousness, shook his head slightly and said to the cultivators: "Zhou just followed what Fellow Daoist Wen said and asked the witch via voice transmission, but she said that she didn't know anything about this, and according to what she said,
It is said that except for a few demon cultivators who are trusted by the [Master Tianzhi], most of the demon cultivators summoned like her are not trusted by [Master Tianzhi] and will not let them participate.
Some truly confidential matters."
"Can Fellow Daoist Zhou confirm that what the witch said is true?"
The monk surnamed Wen frowned and looked at Zhou Yang in disbelief and asked.
When Zhou Yang heard this, he immediately became a little unhappy. His face darkened and he said in a deep voice: "Zhou guarantees on his own honor that the witch definitely did not lie."
"Ahem, since Fellow Daoist Zhou said this, it must be true. There is no doubt about this!"
Seeing Zhou Yang getting angry, Xu Tianlin hurriedly coughed and intervened to calm the atmosphere.
At this time, the monk surnamed Wen also realized that what he just said was very inappropriate. He also remembered Zhou Yang's glorious achievements in the previous battle in Demon City. His heart suddenly tightened and he hurriedly held up his hands and apologized: "Friend Zhou, please calm down.
It was Wen who made a mistake just now, which offended me a lot, and I ask fellow Taoist friends to forgive me."
Zhou Yang glanced at him with squinted eyes and said lightly: "Friend Literary Taoist, you are too polite. When everyone makes a mistake, how can Zhou be offended?"
This matter has been revealed.
The cultivators then expressed their opinions and continued to speculate on the possible plans of the demon cultivators.
When Master Qingyang spoke up, he suddenly said loudly: "Look, I don't need to waste time here guessing what the demon cultivators have planned. At this time, we should take advantage of the opportunity of the main force of the demon cultivators to destroy the teleportation array.
Directly send out surprise troops to attack their rear area and investigate their actual situation on the ground."
"If they are really planning something secretly, there will definitely be traces left behind. As long as we can find those traces, we will naturally know what they are planning!"
Zhou Yang, who had been quietly listening to the discussions among the cultivators and not saying much, suddenly lit up.
As if he had been inspired by Master Qingyang's words, he suddenly bowed his hands and said, "Senior's words really woke up the dreamer. This junior may understand what I should do."
"Oh, what did Fellow Daoist Zhou understand? You might as well tell me and let me hear it."
Xu Tianlin also seemed to be interested, looking at Zhou Yang expectantly, waiting for him to express his opinion.
Master Qingyang also stroked his beard and smiled and said: "I know that Fellow Taoist Zhou has always had great wisdom, and it just so happens that I want to hear Fellow Daoist's opinions this time."
"Senior Qingyang is ridiculously complimentary. It's not a noble opinion, it's just a bit of foolish opinion!"
Zhou Yang waved his hand, first humbled himself, then looked at the cultivators in high spirits and said, "Think about it, this time the demonic disaster in the Beitingzhou Immortal World has become so big. What is the reason?"
After finishing speaking, without waiting for everyone to answer, he continued: "Zhou thought that there were two main reasons. One was because the call of [Master Tianzhi], the ninth-level demon cultivator of Nascent Soul, gathered almost 80% of the people in this world.
The above Nascent Soul Demonic Cultivators; the second reason is that the demonic energy under the Ice Sea Demonic Abyss suddenly burst out and formed a demonic realm on the ground, which transformed a large number of monsters and gave the demonic cultivators a place to rely on.
Solid base!”
"Based on these two points, Zhou believes that if the demon cultivators are planning something secretly and don't want us to know about it, the best place to hide it is in the demonic realm or even in the ice sea demonic abyss."
"Now the demonic cultivators are preparing to destroy the teleportation array. Although it can delay the arrival of our reinforcements, it will also actually weaken the defense on the demonic side and lose the possibility of supporting that side."
"Why don't we take this opportunity to rush into the demonic realm, and even reach the Ice Sea Demonic Abyss, find out what the demon cultivator is planning behind the scenes, and find out the reason for the Ice Sea Demonic Abyss eruption!"
The meaning of Zhou Yang's words is actually similar to what Master Qingyang just said. The difference is that the purpose in his words is more clear and intuitive.
As soon as the practitioners listened to his words, they felt suddenly enlightened.
Xu Tianlin immediately made a decision and said: "That's it! Xu will send a message to fellow Taoist Guo and others, asking them to get here as quickly as possible, and then I will go to the Demon Realm together to have a glimpse of the real reality!
"
Qingyang Zhenren also added: "This matter requires the cooperation of all colleagues in the Beitingzhou Immortal Cultivation Circle. It can be done by allowing fellow Taoists stationed in several other frontline positions to launch counterattacks as a containment to distract the enemy's attention. At the same time,
If something happens to me while I'm waiting in the Demon Realm, they can rescue me in time!"
The monk surnamed Wen who had previously questioned Zhou Yang heard this and immediately responded: "Leave this matter to Wen. Wen is responsible for contacting fellow Taoists in several other positions and must persuade them to cooperate with our actions.
!”
"By the way, when contacting fellow Taoist Wen, don't reveal our true plan first. Just say that we are preparing to counterattack while we win. Then, after we set off, we can send a few Jindan monks to fly over and deliver them.
A handwritten letter stating the details!"
Zhou Yang seemed to have thought of something, looking at the monk surnamed Wen with thoughtful eyes and expressed his opinion.
After hearing his words, the others' expressions changed and they all looked at the monk surnamed Wen.
The monk surnamed Wen had a stern look on his face, and he immediately nodded heavily and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhou reminds me that Wen knows what to do."
After everyone talked to each other and finalized the action plan, Xu Tianlin bowed his hands to everyone and said: "Everyone, the war is coming. Please go back and prepare. As soon as Fellow Daoist Guo and others arrive, we will set off immediately!"
Zhou Yang and others also bowed their hands in return and responded in unison: "We will accept the order."
Then the practitioners dispersed and prepared to go.
