The Demonic Corpse Elder fixed his gaze on the group, his voice resonating with deep authority. "The Bloody Blade Demon has behaved with far too much insolence over the years. The time has come to teach him a harsh lesson. I am eager to see how he intends to survive the combined might of our seven Sects. Let us all return to our respective homes and mobilize for the strike against the Blood Slaughter Sect." As his final word echoed, the space where the old man stood dissolved into a swirling cloud of black Qi, leaving no trace of his presence.
The remaining leaders stood frozen, their expressions shifting as the realization hit them. They had not suspected for a moment that the figure they were speaking to was merely a fragment of his soul. This display of power left them shaken; even though they were aware of his reputation, they hadn't realized the gap between them was so vast.
Since no true friendship existed between them, they simply exchanged resolute looks before vanishing one by one. The meeting concluded abruptly, but this was to be expected. Their primary objective had been to stall the experts of the Blood Slaughter Sect. Now that the scheme had failed, there was no reason to linger, and they departed immediately.
Upon returning to their territories, each leader began the urgent task of mustering their disciples for the assault on the Blood Slaughter Sect. While no formal declarations were made to the public, the massive mobilization was impossible to hide. Anyone with eyes could see a large-scale offensive was brewing. Consequently, a heavy tension settled over the Blood Sea Realm. Every gaze was fixed on the Blood Slaughter Sect, waiting to see how they would react to the looming threat.
The situation was unprecedented; aside from the millennial wars against the Cloud Sea Realm, an alliance of seven Sects was unheard of. The atmosphere was suffocating. Observers watched the Blood Slaughter Sect closely, knowing that a single misstep would result in their total annihilation.
Common wisdom suggested that the Blood Slaughter Sect would recall their forces and fortify their various islands, preparing for a desperate siege. By hunkering down and focusing on defense, they might hope to exhaust the seven Sects until the attackers withdrew due to heavy casualties.
However, the Blood Slaughter Sect defied all expectations. Instead of retreating, they began a massive concentration of forces. Excluding their Western defensive line, every disciple was ordered to the Northeast. Even the First Elder of the Blood Slaughter Sect made a public appearance there, carrying the legendary Killing God Blade.
This maneuver sent shockwaves through the Blood Sea Realm. Confusion reigned until the Sect’s true intent became clear: the Blood Slaughter Sect had deployed every large-scale Dharma artifact in their arsenal and was charging directly at the Yin Yang Sect.
The realm fell silent as the sheer audacity of the move sank in. It was pure madness. By committing almost their entire strength to this single offensive, the Blood Slaughter Sect had left the rest of their territory completely vulnerable. Curious cultivators who ventured to other Sect islands found them deserted; though the defensive arrays remained active, not a single soul was left behind. The Blood Slaughter Sect was gambling everything on a total war against the Yin Yang Sect.
News of this reached the Yin Yang Sect, throwing them into a panic. They had initially harbored no specific grudge, only joining the coalition after the Dark Ghost Sect and Sharp Sword Sect convinced them that the Blood Slaughter Sect was vulnerable. Greed had clouded their judgment. They never imagined they would become the sole target of such a suicidal charge.
While the Yin Yang Sect possessed the strength to resist, a full-scale war would leave them crippled. If they exhausted their resources fighting these lunatics, would the other "allies" truly help them, or would they simply finish off the weakened Yin Yang Sect next? Ji Chunfeng, the leader known as the Yin Yang Scholar, could no longer remain calm. He hurriedly summoned his elders to find a way out of this crisis.
When someone suggested asking the other Sects for reinforcements, the idea was shot down instantly. Any battle would take place on Yin Yang Sect soil, meaning their own property would be destroyed. Furthermore, reinforcements from rival Sects couldn't be trusted; they would likely let the Yin Yang disciples die first or even seize the Sect's territory once the Blood Slaughter Sect was defeated. Ji Chunfeng refused to entertain such a dangerous proposal.
But could they really face the Blood Slaughter Sect head-on? It seemed impossible. The Blood Slaughter Sect was famous for being a pack of Cultivation madmen who feared neither pain nor death. The Yin Yang Sect felt cheated. The Dark Ghost Sect and Sharp Sword Sect had started this mess, yet they were sitting safely while the Yin Yang Sect faced destruction. The realization that they were being used as shields for others' benefit sparked a wave of resentment. "To hell with this," they thought, "we aren't playing this game anymore!"
The Yin Yang Scholar quickly dispatched an envoy to negotiate. They sent word to the Blood Slaughter Sect claiming they had no real enmity and no desire for war. They proposed a non-aggression pact, promising never to act as enemies again, and even offered a formal alliance.
The Yin Yang Sect had hoped to keep these negotiations secret to buy time and avoid the ire of their former allies. They planned to keep the treaty hidden so they could betray the Blood Slaughter Sect later if the situation changed.
To their horror, the Blood Slaughter Sect immediately went public with the news. They loudly announced their acceptance of the Yin Yang Sect's request, confirming the non-aggression pact and the potential for a future alliance.
The Blood Sea Realm erupted in chatter. The remaining members of the seven-sect coalition realized instantly that the Yin Yang Sect had abandoned them. Though the other leaders cursed the betrayal, they were powerless to stop it. Attacking the Yin Yang Sect now would only drive them further into the arms of the Blood Slaughter Sect. Furthermore, as a top-tier Sect, the Yin Yang Sect had to maintain some semblance of reputation; they couldn't immediately break a freshly signed treaty without appearing pathologically fickle.
With the Yin Yang Sect neutralized, the Blood Slaughter Sect pivoted their entire war machine toward the Heaven Crippling Sect. Faced with the same terrifying prospect of a "fight to the death" against battle-hungry maniacs, the Heaven Crippling Sect found themselves in an impossible position. They knew that even a victory would leave them so weak that their allies would devour them. Following the precedent set by the Yin Yang Sect, they also reached out to sue for peace.
Again, the Blood Slaughter Sect agreed and publicized the truce. Next, they leveraged a connection with the Giant Demon Sect, moving through their territory to threaten the Sick Man Sect. Seeing the writing on the wall, the Sick Man Sect also joined the growing list of peace treaties. The seven-sect alliance had completely crumbled. The Corpse Demon Sect, located far from the front lines, realized there was no profit left to be had. They had no desire to become the next target of these madmen, so they signaled their withdrawal by dispersing their gathered disciples and ending their mobilization.
The Poison Bug Valley, having even less reason to fight and being the furthest away, followed suit. They had only joined to scavenge the remains of the Blood Slaughter Sect; with the alliance dead, they simply sent their disciples home. The Great Alliance was officially over.
However, the Blood Slaughter Sect had deeply insulted the dignity of these powers by forcing them into such humiliating treaties. To manage the lingering resentment, Sect Master Dao Qianzhan sent formal letters to the other leaders. He offered a compromise: the Blood Slaughter Sect would not invade the 13 Family Alliance's territory. Instead, the Western defensive line would remain a restricted battlefield for disciples. If the 13 Family Alliance could break the line using only their standard forces, the Blood Slaughter Sect would cede the West and Northwest Sea regions. The catch was that no Island Lord-level experts could participate. If any such high-level Cultivator from the Alliance interfered, the Blood Slaughter Sect vowed to unleash their full, unrestrained vengeance in retaliation.
