"You two Daoists are too modest. When it comes to timing, even I, Wei, cannot do better. You two are not cultivators of our Righteous Alliance,"

"Yet you stepped in and resolved our crisis. This favor, I, Wei, will surely remember!"

Wei Chang’an sighed and then clasped his hands towards Zhou Xun.

Upon hearing this, everyone revealed envious expressions. A favor from Wei Chang’an is certainly worth a fortune,

not to mention his master’s connection with True Monarch Celestial One,

even Wei himself, despite being only at Middle-Stage Core Formation, with an Immortal Golden Core,

is at least destined to become a Middle-Stage Nascent Soul cultivator in the future.

With such a person’s favor, Zhou Xun and his companion have truly gained!

’A favor, once inside Celestial Suspension Mountain, it’ll be good if we don’t end up fighting!’

Regarding this, Zhou Xun was rather indifferent,

His goal was that of the inheritance within Celestial Suspension Mountain,

even though both sides are united now, when the treasures emerge, it might not be the case!

Despite thinking this inwardly, he still put on a grateful front!

"Then, we are deeply undeserving!"

Wei Chang’an’s Golden Light Shuttle was personally bestowed by True Monarch Celestial One, extremely fast,

at its peak speed, comparable to an Early-Stage Nascent Soul cultivator!

Additionally, its defense is formidable, able to withstand attacks from Nascent Soul cultivators, making it a top-tier life-saving magical treasure!

Under the leadership of such a treasure, within no more than the time it takes an incense stick to burn, everyone flew back to the foot of Celestial Suspension Mountain,

and immediately gathered with the other Righteous Alliance cultivators!

They then recounted the recent events, causing everyone to be greatly shocked.

Originally, there were already more than ten Demonic cultivators here than them, now with Young Master Yama and four others joining, their power significantly increased!

In the event of a conflict, they are definitely no match!

They must soon decide what to do next!

"If it really doesn’t work, we should retreat first, gather reinforcements and then return!"

A round-faced young man in a brocade robe suggested!

"No, tomorrow is the day when the array is at its weakest. If we leave, wouldn’t the treasures of Celestial Profound Sect be handed over to the Demonic path!"

Someone refuted,

"Looking at it now, we have no choice but to ally with the Celestial Dao Alliance!" Anx Yudao said.

"Although the Celestial Dao Alliance cultivators are not as strong as the Demonic path, they still number over thirty. Would they agree?" Someone hesitated and asked,

"Moreover, we are currently at a disadvantage, and to join hands with them, we might have to give up some benefits!"

"But it’s just giving up some benefits, it’s better than getting nothing at all!"

Listening to the arguments below, Wei Chang’an slightly frowned and looked towards Zhou Xun, who was tasting Spirit Wine at the desk,

"Brother Chen, Brother Li, do you have any thoughts?"

Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes turned to him,

Seeing this, Zhou Xun put down his wine cup and said seriously:

"At the foot of Celestial Suspension Mountain, there are a considerable number of loose cultivators, why not recruit them under the Righteous Alliance,"

"As long as we offer a sufficient price, I imagine they won’t refuse a recruitment from one of the Three Great Influences!"

"Brilliant, why didn’t I think of that!" Wei Chang’an clapped and laughed!

In fact, this is also the habitual thinking of these major sect cultivators,

after all, they all hail from Nascent Soul Sects, with profound backgrounds, their sights are mostly set high above the sky,

and they naturally, consciously or unconsciously, ignore those resource- and cultivation technique-poor loose cultivators!

"If this succeeds, our Righteous Alliance will owe the two of you another favor!"

Wei Chang’an said!

Zhou Xun smiled and clasped his hands,

His offer of help was merely to use the Righteous Alliance’s hand to enter this Celestial Suspension Mountain,

with all Three Great Influences present here, it is foreseeable,

that when the array’s power weakens to the extreme tomorrow, these loose cultivators will absolutely have no chance to enter and explore treasures,

’Letting them enter the Secret Realm to scavenge some scraps would be fine, the core heritage and treasures cannot be given away!’

Having agreed on a plan, the numerous Righteous Alliance cultivators mobilized, heading towards the loose cultivators on the outermost perimeter,

with almost fifty loose cultivators gathered here,

most acted on their own, with very few moving in threes and twos!

After Wei Chang’an and others went out, they immediately offered a high price, even promising part access to the Righteous Alliance’s Secret Vault for treasure exchanges,

including some rare Tier-Breaking Treasures like the Purple Essence Pill, and even some Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects were included,

so naturally attracting quite a number of loose cultivators,

within a short while, they recruited fifteen to sixteen people, with nearly half being Late-Stage Core Formation cultivators.

...

Just as the recruitment was complete, Young Master Yama led those Demon Cultivators, aggressively seeking them out.

"Wei Chang’an, come out to see me!"

"Brother Yu, we meet again!"

Wei Chang’an smiled as he stepped out from the Righteous Alliance cultivators and approached Young Master Yama Yu Chengdao, clasping his hands!

"Hmph, running so fast, are you scared?" Yu Chengdao sneered.

"With Brother Yu’s numbers, naturally, I, Wei, must know ’how to read the situation.’ Otherwise, even if I could leave, I fear the remaining six Daoists would be besieged and attacked by Brother Yu!"

Wei Chang’an looked at Yu Chengdao, his gaze full of meaningful implications.

Hearing this, Yu Chengdao didn’t refute, just letting out a cold snort, acknowledging directly:

"You are indeed perceptive. But even if you escape, so what, at the foot of Celestial Suspension Mountain, your Righteous Alliance numbers are probably half of ours!"

As he spoke, nearly forty people moved over from the Demonic side, simultaneously revealing their hidden mana aura.

Instantly, the mana auras of over forty Core Formation cultivators surged forth, stirring up gusts of wind.

"Who said our Righteous Alliance has only twenty people," Wei Chang’an waved his hand,

the more than forty Core Formation cultivators behind him also unleashed their own mana auras,

and as the two auras clashed, ripples formed in the air.

"You..."

Yu Chengdao’s face was full of astonishment, casting a glance at a certain middle-aged man behind him,

seemingly questioning why his information wasn’t accurate!

"It seems I underestimated you, Brother Wei!"

"We’re both equally matched!" Wei Chang’an said.

Just then, the cultivators from the Celestial Dao Alliance also approached,

led by a white-clothed youth, standing tall and upright like a pine tree, possessing a refined and noble temperament, akin to a crane among chickens, drawing much attention!

"Brother Yu, Brother Wei, you are both leaders in the Central Continent, no need to confront each other like this, allowing those loose cultivators to laugh at us!"

The youth smiled as he clasped his hands.

Seeing this person, Yu Daocheng and Wei Chang’an’s eyes slightly narrowed, a trace of wariness flashing!

"Mu Jiuge, are you planning to interfere in my Demon Alliance’s matters?" the black-robed youth said discontentedly.

"No, it’s just that both of us are here for the Celestial Profound Sect’s inheritance,"

"The array has not yet opened, fighting now is unwise!"

"Why not wait until this array is broken, and if Brother Yu encounters any treasures or opportunities, I, Mu, definitely won’t interfere!" Mu Jiuge smiled and explained.

"What Brother Mu says makes sense, what does Brother Yu think?" Wei Chang’an asked,

"Hm, since Brother Mu insists, I naturally must give him this face, we’ll discuss everything after the array is opened!"

The black-robed youth snorted coldly.

Then, the Demonic path and Righteous Alliance cultivators retreated to their respective camps.

Time passed quickly, and soon it was the next day,

with some cultivators going to inspect the array,

"It’s weakened, ready to be broken!"
