Chapter 271: Chapter 195: The Ancestor Asked Me to Convey an Important Matter (Seeking Monthly Tickets) _3

"Ha ha, I still have to thank Daoist Ling Long for imparting the Divine Firmament Nine Swords to me."

Li Qian said with a light chuckle.

If Ling Long Great Saint knew that he was already practicing the Divine Firmament Third Sword, he would probably be dumbfounded.

After all, only a Supreme Saint can practice the Divine Firmament Third Sword.

In the following months, Li Qian and Ling Long Great Saint’s whereabouts were unpredictable as they searched for targets. The extensive defense line was already a fiercely contested battleground, and their interventions became exceedingly frequent.

Moreover, they did not need to have any reservations.

After all, the Allied Martial Coalition also had many experts.

This made the actions of Li Qian and Ling Long Great Saint, the demon slayer duo, appear not at all abrupt.

Moreover, every move they made was bound to succeed.

Not a single Demon Clan Great Saint could escape.

As Demon Clan Great Saints suffered heavy losses, the Demon Clan finally realized that the Human Clan’s Qi Blood Saint, who had disappeared for many years, had reappeared.

However, at this time, Li Qian chose to withdraw again.

The two had left the Rainbow Plateau and returned to the human area of the Qinghong Domain.

The reason for retreating at this time was because Li Qian, during one of the killings of a Demon Clan Great Saint, keenly discovered that the demons were setting a trap to lure him in.

Fortunately, he and Ling Long Great Saint coordinated excellently, detected the anomaly in advance, and chose to retreat immediately, or else the consequences would have been unpredictable.

Sangwu City.

This is a thriving human city.

It was less affected by the demon disaster.

Even so, demon puppets often appeared in the city, causing numerous deaths and injuries.

Moreover, the activities of the Demon Sect in the shadows were extremely rampant... Various signs indicated some connection between demon puppets and the Demon Sect, making the emergence of demon puppets even more secretive.

Li Qian and Ling Long Great Saint were sitting in a restaurant, watching a group of black-clad martial artists rushing past outside; it turned out that another demonic calamity had occurred nearby, and these martial artists were heading to handle it.

"Alas, it’s becoming more frequent lately, when will this ever end."

"Yeah, I don’t even dare to go out now."

"It’s not safe at home either."

At a neighboring table, three people were discussing.

Due to the increased frequency of demonic calamities, the business of the restaurant was greatly affected.

Thus, there weren’t many customers in the entire restaurant.

"Daoist Qian Yuan, how is the wine here?"

Ling Long Great Saint, holding a wine glass, took a sip and asked with a light laugh.

"Uh..."

Li Qian smiled and said, "It’s alright."

The wine sold in this restaurant was actually his soy-sauce-flavored liquor.

Although there was a slight difference in taste, it was definitely brewed using his methods.

He guessed that after Daoist Lv obtained the brewing methods, it then spread throughout the Human World.

As for why it could be seen in the Qinghong Domain, that was uncertain.

It must have been passed on by some other means.

While the two were drinking and chatting, suddenly Ling Long Great Saint frowned slightly, then took out a peculiar jade talisman.

This jade talisman flickered with a faint red light.

In the next moment, the jade talisman shattered.

"Daoist Qian Yuan, something big has happened."

Ling Long Great Saint said with a grave expression.

"What’s happened?"

Li Qian asked curiously.

"The Dao Sect has sent a message through a Ten Thousand Miles Communication Talisman, the demon race suddenly breached the Rainbow Plateau defensive line, pushing straight through, and now it has merged with the Demon Disaster Area."

Ling Long Great Saint said.

"Weren’t we just away from Rainbow Plateau for a few days, how could it suddenly be lost?"

Li Qian was somewhat astonished.

In the past few months, he and Ling Long Great Saint had eliminated a large number of Demon Clan Great Saints, and although the strongest were only Advanced Great Saints and not top-tier Great Saints, they had definitely inflicted heavy losses on the Demon Clan.

With such significant losses, how could the Demon Clan breach the Rainbow Plateau defensive line in such a short time?

This was too absurd.

"It is said that there was a major incident within the Dharma Sect... I don’t know the specifics yet."

Ling Long Great Saint shook his head.

"The Dharma Sect?"

Li Qian knew that the Dharma Sect was a powerful force within the Martial Coalition, ranked among the five strongest sects along with the Dao Sect, the Buddha Sect, the Confucian Sect, and the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, and that the Dharma Sect had two Supreme Saints.

After the demise of Bai He Supreme Saint and the failure of Mo Li Great Saint’s tribulation, the power of Dao Sect greatly diminished.

Thus, among the five major sects of the Martial Alliance, only Dao Sect is without a Supreme Saint; the other three sects each have one.

The Martial Alliance also has other forces, like Array Sect, Alchemy Sect, Beast Taming Sect, etc.

These forces essentially consist of Array Masters, Alchemists, and the like.

Actually, it would be more appropriate to consider the Martial Alliance as a single sect.

Due to differences in cultivation philosophies, sects like Dharma Sect, Dao Sect, and Buddhism Sect have become relatively independent, considered only part of the Martial Alliance lineage.

"Daoist Ling Long, I will return to Chang Country first and wait for your news."

Li Qian decided decisively.

Since the defensive line at Rainbow Plateau has been breached, there was no need for him to stay in Qinghong Domain anymore.

He must return to Divine Sword Sect and prepare early.

He estimated that the demon disaster would definitely erupt in the Human World soon.

"Alright."

Ling Long Great Saint nodded.

With the situation unclear, there was indeed little point in Qian Yuan staying in Qinghong Domain.

Thus, Li Qian bade farewell to Ling Long Great Saint and returned to Sheep Horn Domain alone.

Upon returning to Divine Sword Sect, Li Qian began to fully engage in making Solid Array Piles, preparing to replace the sect’s original Great Array with a larger, higher defensive power array.

During this period, he also made a trip to Stepping Cloud Peak and learned some secrets about the breach of the defense line at Rainbow Plateau by the Demon Race.

It turned out that during the time of spiritual refinement, Wu Xu Venerable Sage of Dharma Sect was ambushed by his own proud disciple.

It is said that this disciple, a top-level Great Saint, had long joined the Demon Race secretly.

There is still no news on whether Wu Xu Venerable Sage of Dharma Sect has fallen, but after the loss of Wu Xu’s top-tier fighting power, the Martial Alliance with only four remaining Supreme Saints can no longer check the five Great Saints of the Demon Race.

Now, Qinghong Domain has essentially become a realm of demons.

The forces of the Martial Alliance had no choice but to evacuate and rebuild a new defensive line in Guangpu Domain and Sheep Horn Domain to block the demon invasion.

According to Dao Sect’s estimation, this defensive line will not hold for long, as the alliance of demons has become an overwhelming force.

Once the defense collapses, Sheep Horn Domain will directly face the onslaught of the demons.

Chen Bell Platform.

Li Qian looked at the map, his brows tightly furrowed.

Drawn on it was a line, marking the defensive boundary between Sheep Horn Domain and Qinghong Domain.

This boundary line is about ten thousand miles away from Chang Country.

It seems very distant.

But in fact, once the defensive line is breached, in a matter of months, a massive wave of demons and Demon Puppets can pour in like a tidal wave.

"Forget it, even if the sky falls, the Martial Alliance will bear it; why should I worry so much?"

Li Qian shook his head and put away the map.

Then, he stood up and left the Chen Bell Platform to visit Elder Qing Song’s cultivation site.

"Elder Li, what wind has blown you here?"

Elder Qing Song was quite surprised.

"Elder Qing Song, the ancestor tasked me with conveying a major directive."

Li Qian stated bluntly.

Elder Qing Song promptly asked, "Elder Li, is there a call for a Supreme Council meeting?"

"There’s no need for a Supreme Council."

Li Qian shook his head.

He briefly mentioned the imminent major disaster of demons, advising Divine Sword Sect to prepare early.

Elder Qing Song’s face changed drastically, "Elder Li, did the ancestor say when it will break out?"

Currently, Chang Country is very peaceful, without any adverse news.

However, he deeply trusted the ancestor’s words; since they conveyed that a great disaster of demons was imminent, it was absolutely certain.

"That is not yet certain, but while making preparations, we must absolutely keep this information sealed. The ancestor mentioned that only by preserving as much of Divine Sword Sect’s living force as possible can we possibly survive this calamity."

Li Qian said gravely.

The disaster would have such a vast impact that there would be no sanctuary left in Human World.

Divine Sword Sect could only self-preserve, accumulate strength, and possibly survive the upcoming disaster.

As for the populations and towns within their territories, they could not afford much concern.

At most, Lijian City could be included in the protective boundaries of Divine Sword Sect’s Great Array.

Thus, the Great Array he intended to re-layout this time would cover an unprecedentedly large area, encompassing the entire territory of Divine Sword Sect and even the regions between the sect and Lijian City.
