Chapter 425 -422: Heavenly Corpse Blood Demon, Leng Yue Profound Immortal
“Sect Leader!”
Several Supreme Elders burst into the Rebirth Palace and looked anxiously at the Rebirth Sect Leader, “Sect Leader, there are too many Righteous Path Cultivators coming, and they’re well-prepared. We simply can’t stop them; we’re being pushed back and have suffered heavy losses. What should we do now?”
“Yes, Sect Leader, if this continues, I’m afraid in less than half an hour, they will attack all the way to the front of the Rebirth Palace. Even if the arrays defending the Rebirth Palace are stronger, they won’t be able to withstand the fierce assault of the Righteous Path Cultivators for long. What should we do then?”
“Do not panic, everyone.”
The Rebirth Sect Leader cleared his throat slightly, his demeanor calm, “If it really comes to that step, I will stand in front of the Rebirth Palace and buy you all some time. You can escape through the underground tunnel. Although the cultivators from various sects will surely notice and pursue, I believe you have the means to escape this place.”
“Sect Leader, you…”
The few Supreme Elders looked at the Rebirth Sect Leader with surprise, not understanding why he would say such a thing.
The Rebirth Sect Leader waved his hand, “First let me finish speaking.”
He stood up and paced back and forth in the hall for a couple of steps, his tone somewhat heavy, “Since I took the position of Sect Leader, I’ve not accomplished much. Not only have I failed to rejuvenate our Rebirth Sect, but now I’ve even led the sect into the catastrophe of possible destruction. This is my fault.
If later it is impossible to continue, I’ll go out and delay the enemies for a moment. When that happens, you must quickly leave.”
“Sect Leader, how could we blame you?”
An old man with white hair and beard spoke, “Due to the suppression of the Biluo Heavenly Dao, you haven’t been able to advance and achieve immortality. It’s a fact that our strength doesn’t match that of the Righteous Path Sects. Not to mention us, but even the strongest Heavenly Demon Sect has been in hiding for years, never daring to stay in one place for long.
Now that our sect’s location has been discovered and we’re facing a siege, it’s inevitable. After all, the Righteous and Demonic paths are incompatible, and we have destroyed our fair share of Righteous Path Sects over the years. It’s just that fortune turns with time, and now it’s our turn to be unlucky.
Sect Leader, you have profound cultivation, and you’re only a step away from achieving immortality. You must not be lost. As long as you can escape, even if we all die here, the legacy of the Rebirth Sect will not be extinguished. But if you’re not here, with just us, we can’t uphold this responsibility.”
“Yes, Sect Leader, you must not put yourself in danger. Otherwise, our Rebirth Sect will be in peril.”
The rest of the Supreme Elders, regardless of their inner thoughts, all tried to dissuade him verbally.
“My mind is made up, there’s no need for further persuasion from the Elders!”
The Rebirth Sect Leader’s expression was resolute, but he soon followed with a sigh, “It’s just a pity…”
“A pity what?”
Everyone looked towards him.
“A pity for the child, Zi’er!”
The Rebirth Sect Leader sighed, “This child has exceptional talent and a splendid gift; he is the best candidate for cultivating the techniques of our Rebirth Sect. Ever since I brought him back a few years ago, I’ve kept him by my side, hoping he could achieve something. So that even if something happened to me, the sect would have a successor.
Unfortunately, there hasn’t been enough time for him to make a significant breakthrough, and now the sect has encountered this great disaster. Whether the Rebirth Sect can preserve its lineage is still uncertain.”
He swept his gaze over the Elders, finally resting it on the one who first tried to dissuade him, “Elder Mie Jue, you are the oldest among us and one of the few surviving Supreme Elders from the Ancient Great Tribulation. You have always been loyal to the sect and give me the most peace of mind.
Now I entrust Zi’er to you. Later, as I hold off the Righteous Path Cultivators and buy some time, you must ensure to take Zi’er with you as you flee.”
The youth’s eyes were red with emotion, “Sect Leader, I won’t leave. I want to face the enemy with you!”
He dared not call the Rebirth Sect Leader ‘father’ in front of others because he had been instructed from a very early age not to expose their relationship, as it might lead to others using him to threaten his own well-being.
“Nonsense!”
The Rebirth Sect Leader scolded, “With your scant cultivation, you dare to speak of facing the enemy alongside me?”
“I…”
The youth’s face flushed red; he bowed his head, unable to say another word.
“Alas…”
The Rebirth Sect Leader sighed, “Go with Elder Mie Jue. If you live, there is still hope for the Rebirth Sect to rise again.”
“Young… rest assured, Sect Leader, I shall earnestly cultivate and not fail your expectations!”
The other Elders all turned their gaze to the youth and looked him over.
Elder Mie Jue was slightly hesitant, “Sect Leader, are you planning to appoint this child as the successor to our sect?”
“I have such a plan, but his success will depend on him.”
The Rebirth Sect Leader spoke, “Elder Mie Jue, you just need to take him away. Once you are in a safe place, there’s no need to give him special care. If he has the capability and his cultivation soars rapidly, becoming fit to inherit the position of Sect Leader of the Rebirth Sect, you can support him. If not, let him fend for himself.”
Elder Mie Jue stared solemnly at the Rebirth Sect Leader for a few moments, then bowed , “Rest assured, Sect Leader, I shall not fail your trust. I will take this child to a safe place and preserve a hope for our Rebirth Sect!”
“Good!”
The Rebirth Sect Leader nodded in satisfaction.
Just then, a series of sharp shrieks were heard from outside.
Immediately after, there came scolding and the sounds of battle.
“Heavenly Corpse Old Ghost, Demon Huaxue, how dare you come here?”
That was the crisp, cold voice of Elder Feixue from the Wanfa Sect.
“Kekeke…”
A harsh, unpleasant voice rose, “We’ve been here for a while, but didn’t show ourselves earlier to avoid your ambushes. It’s quite unexpected that you’d find the Rebirth Sect’s location. It’s the Rebirth Sect’s misfortune. But now that Daoist Fellow Huaxue and I are here, it’s impossible for you to wipe out the Rebirth Sect’s legacy.
I advise you to retreat while you can. The two of us might not match you all in combat, but as we stand alone here without reservations, should a battle ensue, it will inevitably affect your disciples and followers. If casualties are heavy, don’t blame us for being merciless.”
“Great, with Heavenly Corpse and Huaxue Daoist Fellows coming for aid, we will surely manage to lead more disciples to safety.”
From deep within the Underground Palace, the Rebirth Sect Leader, overjoyed, said to Mie Jue and the others, “I’m going out to fight against them right away, holding off those Profound Immortals of the Righteous Path. Take the opportunity to flee and do not forget to take Zi’er with you.”
“Sect Leader…”
“Ha-ha, be at ease, with Daoist Fellows Heavenly Corpse and Huaxue here, I will certainly be safe. Remember, do not engage in prolonged combat, meet up at our sect’s secret place. In critical moments, it’s permissible to abandon some, for disciples can be recruited again. As long as I remain, as do the Elders, the Rebirth Sect will not fall.”
“Understood!”
The Elders bowed in succession, accepting the order.
Clearly, with two great demons coming for assistance, whether it was the Rebirth Sect Leader or the rest of the Demon Cultivators, their spirits were greatly lifted, and they were brimming with confidence.
But before they could celebrate for long, Elder Feixue sneered coldly, “You’ve come at the right time. It’s quite unexpected that we even caught a big fish. The Heavenly Corpse Old Ghost is one thing; it seems the people who went to purge him were a little late, allowing this old ghost to receive a message from the Rebirth Sect Master directly and leave the Undying Valley to come here for support.”
“Heh heh, your own lair is about to be overturned, and yet you dare to be so arrogant in front of us; it truly is laughable.”
“As for Daoist Huaxue, this is quite the unexpected pleasure. I didn’t think you, a demon, would also come here. It seems your nest must be nearby; later we will have to send some disciples to search, and we must wipe out all the Demon Cultivators in your nest in one fell swoop.”
In midair, the Heavenly Corpse Old Ghost, dressed in a green robe, dark-skinned, and with a face full of Death Qi, had glimmers of green light flashing in his eyes and said in a surprised tone, “How did you find out that my place of Cultivation is in the Undying Valley?”
“Hmph, we know much more than that.”
Elder Feixue’s voice was ice cold as he spoke with a chilling tone, “We not only know that your Undying Valley is the residence of the Heavenly Corpse Old Ghost but also the location of the Corpse Demon Sect’s main headquarters in the God Burying Abyss.”

“You…”
The Heavenly Corpse Old Ghost’s face turned white with shock, and his heart surged with a wave of dread, “How could you possibly know these things?”
“We not only know this but also the whereabouts of all the Demon Sects under the Demon Path’s three teachings and forty-eight branches; even if the Heavenly Demon Sect is hidden in secrecy, it is impossible for them to escape from the hands of so many Great Powers.”
Wang Zhuding chuckled, “Heavenly Corpse Old Ghost, since you’re here, don’t bother leaving; and Demon Huaxue, today is a good day to take care of you too, saving us trouble later on.”
“You?”
The complexion of Daoist Huaxue in the Blood Robe changed drastically, “Could it be that you…”
“Have you guessed it?”
Elder Feixue scoffed, “Finally, there’s someone clever. Those Demon Cultivators from the Rebirth Sect wouldn’t believe when told earlier, but whether you believe it or not, this time the Five Domains have joined forces to purge Demon Cultivators, and we are determined to thoroughly eliminate you traitors!”
Underneath the Underground Palace, the complexion of the Rebirth Sect Master also changed repeatedly, but he forcefully suppressed the shock in his heart and bellowed, “Do not listen to their nonsensical babble, Daoist Fellows. Even if what they say is true, what of it? If, as they say, the Undying Valley is already surrounded, returning now would be pointless. It is better to lend me, the Rebirth Sect, your strength first, to jointly deal with these Righteous Path Cultivators. Once we join forces and escape, we can talk about what comes next.”
As he spoke, he left the Underground Palace and flew towards the sky.
Under the coordinated efforts of several Heavenly Immortals from the Major Sects, they did not allow this Profound Immortal Realm powerhouse to harm the disciples below. In fact, the Rebirth Sect Master didn’t wish to do such a thing at this time; otherwise, it would surely enrage the Major Sects, which might lead them to relentlessly pursue the Cultivators of the Rebirth Sect, greatly increasing the difficulty for people like Elder Mie Jue to escape.
He did not care about the life and death of others, but that youth must not die!
Upon seeing the Rebirth Sect Master emerge, Elder Kongkong and others immediately laughed, “You demon have finally shown yourself. Heh heh, in that case, we don’t need to hide any longer. Daoist Fellows Leng Yue and Han Qing, please show yourselves and join us in encircling and slaying these demons.”
“Ha ha ha ha, we have been waiting for a long time!”
Before the laughter died down, they saw the scenery of a distant mountain peak change abruptly. The originally lush mountain peak suddenly rose up, and two Profound Immortals with astonishing presence revealed their figures.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a painting. The painting previously covered the mountain peak, blending in with the landscape; the two Profound Immortals hiding within the painting perfectly concealed their auras.
These two were the old ancestors of two smaller Sects among the dozen that were besieging the Rebirth Sect, with strength similar to that of the Fiery Fire Sect, each having a Profound Immortal Immortal overseeing.
Previously, to be cautious, they had hidden in secret places; they never expected that two Demon heads would really come to support, which turned out to be an unexpected surprise.
Even with the strength of Elder Kongkong and others, they were capable of dealing with these three demons, but they were not confident they could capture each of them, as they were all entities of the same realm. Four against three, it was very likely that one or two of the opponents could escape.
But now the odds were six against three.
Especially since among them was Elder Kongkong, who excelled at the Space Law, and had powerful Spiritual Beasts at his disposal. Among the rest, there were also two at the Peak of Profound Immortal Realm.
“Quick, let’s go! The Righteous Path is devious, plotting against us in the shadows. We can’t overpower them in this battle; we need to leave quickly and save our lives!”
Daoist Huaxue was particularly cunning. In a flash, he turned into a streak of blood light, attempting to flee.
Elder Kongkong sneered, “If you manage to escape while I’m here, then you might as well say my name backwards!”
Before his words had even faded, he took a step forward but seemed to step deeper into the fabric of space. By the time he appeared again, he was directly in front of Daoist Huaxue.
Without giving the demon a chance to turn around, he reached out to grab him, and the void imprisoned him. Countless space rifts spread towards Daoist Huaxue like shards of broken glass.
Daoist Huaxue’s form turned into a blood light, dodging left and right to evade Elder Kongkong’s attack. Just as he was about to move, a sudden sense of crisis surged in his heart, and his figure shrank. He turned into a three-inch tall sphere of blood light, narrowly avoiding a slash of sword light.
“Heh heh, Demon, don’t forget that Elder Kongkong isn’t the only one here.”
The one who struck was none other than Wang Zhuding, a Profound Immortal Elder from the Divine Weapon Family.
This Profound Immortal was not very tall, just two inches taller than Elder Kongkong, but he was significantly broader in stature. At that moment, he brought out an Immortal Artifact, which turned into a nearly invisible sword light hovering before him.
The sword light might not have looked impressive, but it posed an endless threat to Daoist Huaxue.
Wang Zhuding, as an elder of the Divine Weapon Family, naturally had access to powerful magical treasures. He was wielding his cherished top-quality Immortal Artifact, which he had nurtured for many years. Its formidable power was such that even Daoist Huaxue, with his unique cultivation technique, dared not allow it to slice through his body.
Elsewhere, Elder Feixue from Wanfa Sect and the Sky Scorpion Elder from the Five Poisons Sect teamed up, aiming straight for the Rebirth Sect Leader who had just flown up from the Underground Palace.
As for the Heavenly Corpse Old Ghost, who was the slowest, he was left to Profound Immortals Leng Yue and Han Qing, who were following closely behind.
Although each of these three demons was powerful, their opponents were not to be trifled with.
Especially Elder Kongkong; even without deploying his Spiritual Beast, his cultivation and Dao alone were beyond what Daoist Huaxue, a Demon Cultivator who had risen to the realm of Profound Immortal just a few thousand years ago, could compare to. And with Wang Zhuding at his side, the situation was even less favorable.
So, in less than half an hour, the two of them had already dealt Daoist Huaxue a rather sorry state.
Elder Kongkong even managed to injure Daoist Huaxue, forcefully extracting a wisp of his essence. He then shouted downwards, “Someone go and clean up Demon Huaxue’s den! This villain has committed countless atrocities over the years; we must not let a single one of his minions escape.”
“Ha ha, Ancestor Martial Uncle, rest assured, I will take care of this matter. Not a single Demon Cultivator will escape from this demon’s lair!”
Speaking was Ning Wuxu. He and a Supreme Elder from the White Tiger Lineage flew out together, approaching Elder Kongkong and taking the essence he had captured.
Afterward, Ning Wuxu summoned a Spiritual Beast. It sniffed the essence of Daoist Huaxue in his hand and instantly turned its form towards the direction from which Daoist Huaxue had come.
“Who will join us in slaying the Blood God Sect’s Demon Cultivators?”
“I volunteer!”
Qin Feng was the first to step forward.
Joining his master to attack the demon’s nest was a chance to obtain more benefits, unlike the situation with the Rebirth Sect, which, being a Demon Sect, had too many Cultivators from various factions. Even if they ended up receiving some spoils, they would not amount to much.
“We wish to go as well.”
More disciples from the Spiritual Snake Lineage and the White Tiger Lineage flew out from the Underground Palace.
After all, most of the Rebirth Sect had already been breached, with only the Rebirth Palace left standing. There was no need for so many Cultivators to remain there when they could follow the two Supreme Elders and get their share of the benefits.
