This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable-Chapter 1330 - 105: Decision
At the mention of this name, everyone present changed their expressions instantly.
Not every cultivator in the Honorable Realm can traverse the Spirit Sea Tide.
But if there truly is a cultivator who can accomplish this, he must be an Honorable Realm cultivator.
There is no doubt about it.
And during this time, the Honorable Realm cultivator appearing in the Central Spirit Domain, aside from the Sect Master of the Sword Sect, Xie Qingyun, who leads half the sect westward, who else could it be?
They couldn't think of any other possibilities.
"Indeed, it can only be him..." The Azure Dragon Sovereign's gaze was dark and intricate, "Yet, if it is really him who acted, then who might be the Qingyun Sword Immortal now guarding Yumen Pass?"
He questioned and self-reflected.
His somber gaze swept across everyone's faces.
Each demonic cultivator under such interrogation from the Azure Dragon Sovereign fell back into contemplation.
This is the greatest point of contradiction.
The Sword Sect is halfway west.
Yet the Sect Master, Qingyun Sword Immortal, still guards Yumen Pass, deterring the War Demon Clan.
This is something everyone knows.
If Xie Qingyun is in Central Spirit now, aren't there two Qingyun Sword Immortals in the world, one in Central Spirit, and one in Yumen Pass?
How absurd?
"There cannot be two Qingyun Sword Immortals in the world," The Azure Dragon Sovereign's face gradually regained calmness, saying slowly, "So in Central Spirit and Yumen Pass, there must be one Qingyun Sword Immortal who is fake."
"Appearance can be faked, aura can be faked, everything can be faked..." He spoke word by word: "The only thing that cannot be faked is strength."
Upon hearing this, the White Tiger Sovereign's eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light.
Indeed, strength cannot be faked, aside from the Qingyun Sword Immortal himself, who else can wield Xie Qingyun's sword?
"Across the Spirit Sea Tide, only the Sword Immortal could possibly achieve this strength."
"I said, how could the Taibai Sword Master suddenly erupt with such terrifying strength during the Yi River Platform, forcefully killing my Honorable Realm's Soul Split head-on," At this moment, the Azure Dragon Sovereign connected the previous doubts, "It must have been Xie Qingyun behind the scenes."
"So, the real Qingyun Sword Immortal must be in Central Spirit, the Qingyun Sword Immortal in Yumen Pass is bogus, just a facade to deceive others!" The White Tiger Sovereign concluded.
"Precisely." The Azure Dragon Sovereign's gaze flashed with realization, finally turning vicious and sinister.
"Xie Qingyun wants to maintain Yumen Pass, yet aims to expel us from Central Spirit."
"He wishes for one sect to guard two realms," His voice was low, speaking slowly: "Our Qingyun Sword Immortal's ambition is vast indeed, just not sure if the Sword Sect has the strength to support it."
"Azure Dragon, what should we do?" The White Tiger Sovereign asked.
"Do what? We don't need to do anything, just pass this news to the War Demon Clan." The Azure Dragon Sovereign replied indifferently.
The White Tiger Sovereign's expression subtly changed, instantly understanding the Azure Dragon Sovereign's intention.
If the War Demon Clan cannot seize the opportunity upon receiving this news and do something, then they truly would be unworthy of being lined with the Eight Great Holy Demon Clans, equal to their Heart Demon Clan.
"As for us here, we should rather think over the upcoming soul-snatching."
"Soul-snatching..." The White Tiger Sovereign murmured.
"Indeed," the Azure Dragon Sovereign nodded, "Even though the Spirit Sea Tide plan failed, it's not entirely without harvest. Our long-planned scheme over thousands of years hasn't entirely vanished into illusion."
His cruel gaze swept over all the demonic cultivators present, their true selves were all high-ranking individuals within the Heart Demon Clan.
They gathered here today to make decisions concerning the Spirit Sea Tide, assess the situation, and prepare for responses.
"Where the Spirit Sea Tide passed, spatial turbulence rendered teleportation arrays ineffective."
"This means that the human cultivators on the front line can no longer retreat through teleportation arrays, losing the space to advance or retreat."
"Once the Spirit Sea Tide crest is gone, after dozens of days, the rampant spiritual energy along its path will calm considerably, but before then is the best time for us to act."
"We will mobilize the army directly, launch a full-scale attack on the three cities, forcing them to either defend to the death, exhausting their living forces, and if this happens, even if they truly establish a stronghold on the Long Night Mountain Range later, what's the point?"
After all, in warfare, a stronghold can only serve an auxiliary function; what's truly important is always the people." The Azure Dragon Sovereign said coldly.
"Or they must preserve their living forces by risking entry into the Spirit Sea Tide's tail, retreating backward, but then they would face a tiger in front and a wolf behind, besieged from both sides, truly caught in an impossible dilemma."
Every demonic cultivator in the hall solemnly moved with resolution.
"The failure of the Spirit Sea Tide plan isn't much, encountering unexpected incidents in war is quite normal.
But the battle that really decides the victory or defeat in Central Spirit is only just beginning now." The Azure Dragon Sovereign suddenly stood up, decisively and resolutely, speaking with a solemn tone.
"Two tasks, undertake immediately!"
"Gu Ying, you and Bei Mo set off immediately and inform the War Demon Clan of Xie Qingyun's arrival in Central Spirit."
"Dongqi, Sky Wolf, Xi Yuan... lead our Demon Clan armies, taking advantage of the residual power of the Spirit Sea Tide, launch a comprehensive attack on the three cities of Tiger Head, Bull Horn, and Horse Hoof." The Azure Dragon Sovereign commanded with a booming voice.
"Dongqi will serve as the chief commander of this battle, follow his orders."
The Azure Dragon Sovereign looked at Dongqi Demon Lord coldly, "Dongqi, I care not for losses or costs in this battle, I have only one demand for you… victory is necessary!"
He understood well, gains come with sacrifices.
To achieve great success, one cannot be picky.
If overly meticulous, attempting to win Central Spirit with minimal losses, it might result in unexpected outcomes like this Spirit Sea Tide.
Once the residual waves of the Spirit Sea Tide fade, their Heart Demon Clan's arrangements would become a joke.
Such an opportunity must not be missed!
"Dongqi understands!" Dongqi Demon Lord responded, eyes fierce.
The other demonic cultivators who received the command did not hesitate, immediately complying, "By the order of the Soul Venerable!"
Then, the Azure Dragon Sovereign cast his gaze to the White Tiger Sovereign beside him, speaking insidiously.
"We ought to march together with the army, yet now the esteemed Qingyun Sword Immortal hides in the shadows, wanting to play hide-and-seek with us."
"Then let us indulge him, play along as well."
"It's said that the Sword Sect ranks as the first Taoist Sect among the Human Race; I wish to see if the Sword Sect Sect Master can truly turn the heavens this time." The White Tiger Sovereign similarly revealed a hideous grin, murderous intent evident.
"Among the three Sword Immortals of Chang'an, he, Xie Qingyun, is the weakest, guarding two clans...
Ha, even if Li Qiubai were to resurrect, or Chu Mu descended as a god, it may not be possible, yet he dares to imagine!" The Azure Dragon Sovereign gritted his teeth, as if touched on a reverse scale.
....
Using the same trick, hiding within a volcano, utilizing the surge of magma to conceal his aura, Lu Qingshan opened his eyes.
He ended two days of cultivation, restoring his state to its peak.
The higher the cultivation, the more robust the mana, and the harder it is to exhaust.
Similarly, recovery is not an easy task.
Yet Lu Qingshan has the Silver Candle's Clear Rhyme talent providing 100% enhancement, while also consuming pills.
So, within just two days, he nearly restored all the depleted Element Force.
Subsequently, he entered a meditative state, sensing the Peach Blossom Mark constantly moving.
Lu Qingshan knew it indicated that Huang Yang had yet to return to his lair.
Otherwise, the Peach Blossom Mark would stabilize at a location and not move easily.
Lu Qingshan stood up, performed several exercises to stretch his muscles, then continued to wait quietly, like a patient hunter.
"Just uncertain how Mo Yan's situation fares?"
With leisure, he couldn't help but think of Mo Yan, who escaped far with the Heart Demon's one body three souls message.
"Don't worry, young master, since he has earned your regard, he must escape from it alive and deliver the message back to the Human Race." Qin Yitian said softly.
"Oh?" Lu Qingshan was surprised by Qin Yitian's words, "You trust his strength so much."
"Not trusting his strength," Qin Yitian said charmingly: "Trusting young master's judgment instead."
"After all, few individuals earn young master's regard, Mo Yan is the first."
"Oh~" Lu Qingshan couldn't help but chuckle, teasing Qin Yitian: "Go on then, keep praising your young master to the heavens."
In saying pleasing words, the sword spirit girl had never let him down.
