After a confrontation with Li Yunjing, Yu Mozi vows revenge and begins to gather allies from demonic sects, even sacrificing a piece of the Netherworld Order and offering a rare array diagram. Meanwhile, Li Yunjing and his companions return to Shenxiao Island for a coalition conference, where they are met with curious and wary gazes.

"Everyone, our ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ this time heading to the ’Ghost Evil Hall’ is to investigate their secret collusion with the ’Demon Control Sect,’ intending to disrupt the situation in the East Sea."

Li Yunjing took a deep breath and spoke loudly.

His eyes were like torches, surveying the people in the hall, beginning to narrate the thrilling battle.

The people in the hall listened, all with serious expressions, unconsciously holding their breath and concentrating.

"Finally, under the action of three Supreme Elders, all the Ghost Evil Hall Master and Twelve Yin Marshals were slain, annihilating the ’Ghost Evil Hall.’

Li Yunjing’s tone was sonorous, shocking many representatives of the East Sea forces, who inhaled repeatedly, each displaying an incredulous expression.

One must know that in the East Sea, the ’Ghost Evil Hall’ is not weak!

It was one of the major troubles of the East Sea.

No one expected that the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ would wipe out the ’Ghost Evil Hall’ with just three Supreme Elders.

This caused the faces of many high masters attending the meeting to change dramatically.

In their hearts, they asked themselves, most of their forces were not as strong as the ’Ghost Evil Hall.’

If the ’Ghost Evil Hall’ were to perish, would they not also face the risk of extermination if they do not obey the dispatch of ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’?

"After solving the ’Ghost Evil Hall,’ we learned that the ’Demon Control Sect’ was planning a larger conspiracy, so we rushed to the ’Demon Control Sect.’

With a brief pause, seeing the situation in the venue, Li Yunjing was greatly satisfied and continued: "Inside the ’Demon Control Sect,’ the Guardian Beast is extremely fierce, and there is a Silver Zombie stationed in the land of inheritance."

He paused and then recounted the defeat of a Supreme Elder of the ’Demon Control Sect’ and the serious injury inflicted upon Yu Mozi.

"These words left everyone in the hall dumbfounded, occasionally exclaiming in amazement.

"And that Yu Mozi, his methods are varied and endless. Though his Lifebound Magical Treasure ’Netherworld Blood River Banner’ was destroyed, he remains a menace!"

Li Yunjing looked serious, "Yu Mozi is not dead and is now rallying various Demon Dao forces, intending to seek revenge, everyone must not let down their guard!"

After finishing the narration, Li Yunjing cupped his fists in salute.

The hall was initially silent, then discussions erupted.

"I didn’t expect the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ to have such strength, capable of seriously damaging both the ’Ghost Evil Hall’ and ’Demon Control Sect’!"

"That Yu Mozi is not dead, it could be a great disaster!"

...

Inside the Council Hall, the candlelight flickered, casting the shocked faces of the audience into sharp relief.

An elderly man with white hair from the ’Canghai Sect’ suddenly stood up, his sleeve brushing against the table, causing the teacup to clatter: "’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ has decimated two major Demon Sect leaders, such power... indeed the number one Daoist Sect on the Southern Heaven Continent!"

Before his voice fell, the Sunset Valley Master slapped the table, speaking excitedly: "The Upper Sect’s strength! United together, we are not afraid of the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’!"

Upon these words, the atmosphere in the hall relaxed considerably, and many people showed smiles.

Everyone came to join the alliance with the intention of countering the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect.’

Now, the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ has taken down two tough targets, immediately winning the hearts of large and small forces.

"Our sect’s actions this time are all for the safety of the East Sea."

Li Yunjing’s gaze was like lightning, staring directly at the Sunset Valley Master: "’Demon Control Sect’ and ’Ghost Evil Hall’ conspired to slaughter and establish the Dao with the ’Three Yin Soul Gathering Array.’ Had our sect not acted in time, the future of the East Sea might have turned into a mortal world’s Purgatory!"

He waved his sleeve, conjuring an image that was the site of the altar, depicting the horrific scene of ten thousand cultivators’ corpses being bled by the ’Soul Stabilizing Nail.’

"Hiss..."

The hall was immediately filled with sounds of gasps.

"Yu Mozi is truly heartless and insane!"

Five Elements Master spoke at the right moment, sweeping his harsh gaze across the room: "Our sect’s current alliance meeting is precisely to discuss joint defense strategies with you all. Effective immediately, Shenxiao Island will open the ’Nine Thunder Warning Array’ for shared spiritual power fluctuation monitoring, requiring each force to bury a Communication Jade Scroll in their location."

He took out several exquisite Jade Scrolls and continued: "Using this item, one can perceive primordial energy fluctuations within five hundred miles in real-time."

The Council Hall fell into silence, only the Jade Scrolls glowed softly.

Everyone understood that if they accepted the Jade Scrolls distributed by ’Shenxiao Dao Sect,’ their territories would be revealed to ’Shenxiao Dao Sect.’

But not accepting meant unwillingness to join the alliance?

If not joining the alliance, why did they come here?

This made everyone somewhat hesitant.

Just then, Feiyun Master spoke up, "Great! Five Elements Master’s plan is excellent! Our ’Feiyun Sect’ needs ten Jade Scrolls to seal off nearby sea regions, ensuring we won’t be ambushed!"

"Feiyun Master’s sentiment is mine as well, my concubine also requires ten Jade Scrolls to place around ’Holy Sound Island’ to guard against enemies!"

Saint Sound Fairy, not wanting to show weakness, also nodded in agreement.

With Feiyun Master and Saint Sound Fairy’s words, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became subtle.

With these two’s agreement, other people’s ideas softened quite a bit.

"Pavilion Master Yunlan" stroked his beard, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and then he spoke loudly: "Our Yunlan Pavilion is willing to receive twenty Jade Scrolls to strengthen island defenses!"

His statement was like a pebble thrown into a deep pond, causing ripples.

"Yunlan Pavilion" was not a force from the first alliance but from a more deeply entrenched force in the East Sea; they take the threat of the ’Celestial Net Dao Sect’ more seriously.

Having chosen to join the alliance, they naturally need to gain more benefits!

Besides revealing territorial details to ’Shenxiao Dao Sect,’ this array offers significant benefits.

Provided there are no hidden agendas, aligning with ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’ definitely offers more advantages than disadvantages.
