The five hundred and ninetieth chapters of the battle of the devil (nineteen)
Although the army of demon cultivators was retreating, they were neat and orderly, and many monks and warships broke behind and did not appear in chaos.
The major sects of the righteous path dare not pursue too much, so as not to fall into the trap of demon cultivators.
After seeing this scene, the monks in the true body who were restraining each other in the distance stopped and returned to their respective camps.
A fierce battle that gathered the strongest forces in the Middle Earth Immortal Cultivation World lasted only half a day and was terminated.
Five great monks of the righteous path, including Xugu Zhenren, also returned from the sky one after another.
"Haha, it seems that Junior Sister Yun and others have completed their work," said Xu Gu Zhenren with a smile.
Li Muran and others were stunned when they heard this, and they were confused. Only a very small number of elders also smiled, obviously knowing something.
"What does Senior Brother Xugu mean? The devil cultivator retreated and was actually related to Junior Sister Yun?" Taoist Wuji asked curiously.
True Man Xugu nodded and said, "At present, there is no need to hide it anymore. In fact, in addition to gathering manpower to confront the demon cultivators, we also secretly sent a group of elite monks to attack the rear of the major sects of the Demonic Way."
"Most of the masters of the Demon Sect are here, and the strength of those who are in charge of the sect is naturally limited. We sent an elite team of more than a dozen cultivators in the true form without knowing it. We secretly attacked the rear of the Demon Sect, which would make the demon cultivator stand in a dilemma. Now that the army of demon cultivators has retreated, it is probably the great contribution made by Junior Sister Yun and other cultivators."
Li Muran suddenly realized when he heard this. No wonder Fairy Yun did not appear in the battle between the righteous and the demons, but turned out to be performing this secret mission.
This action must be extremely secret and sudden to achieve unexpected results. Otherwise, if the Demon Sect is prepared and sets a trap, Fairy Yun and others will go but never return.
Although Li Muran is the descendant of Tianxuan, his origin is unknown and he is just a guest elder, so he naturally does not have the right to know this secret; even important elders such as Wuji Taoist knew nothing about it.
Soon, the army of demon cultivators flew away on warships.
Five late-stage great demon cultivators of the true body were among the high-level demon cultivators. After escorting the army of demon cultivators away, they also inspired a teleportation array and flew away in the flash of the rays of the sunset.
"Strange" Xu Gu Zhenren suddenly murmured: "The demon cultivators have already withdrawn their troops. It seems that Junior Sister Yun and the others should succeed. Why haven't they received their voice transmission for a long time?"
As the real person Xugu said, he took out a purple jade talisman.
Li Muran recognized at a glance that this was a high-level music transmission note. As long as there was a pair of such music transmission notes, information could be transmitted to a very distant place.
Xugu Zhenren inspired the sound transmission notes and said a few words in a low voice.
A moment later, Xugu Zhenren received a reply. After hearing the message from Fairy Yun in the notes, his face changed slightly.
"What? Junior Sister Yun and the others have not taken action yet?" Xu Gu Zhenren was stunned, looking surprised.
The great monks from other sects also took out the notes to contact the monks responsible for sneak attacking the rear of the Demon Sect.
Soon, they got the same reply.
"What's going on?" Xu Gu Zhenren and others were puzzled. Before Yun Xianzi and others started to attack, the demon cultivator had already withdrawn their troops. This was too strange.
"Anyway, let Junior Sister Yun and others return immediately first. Never get caught in the trick of demon cultivating," said Master Xu Gu frowned.
Luo Buping, the great elder of the Seven Sword Sect, said: "We secretly installed a lot of internal agents in the five major sects, but we couldn't find out any information. They had no idea why the demon cultivator suddenly withdrew his troops and just received the order and had to obey."
Everyone was confused. In order to build the Tianhen barrier, the demon cultivator planned for hundreds of years, and even provoked a war between the righteous and the demons. Then, the war had just begun. Before the demon showed his defeat, he hurriedly retreated and completely gave up the Tianhen barrier. This was really incredible.
"The army of demon cultivators may also return, no matter what, let's completely destroy the Great Heaven Array first," Wuji Taoist suggested.
Xugu Zhenren and others nodded, agreeing with the statement of Wuji Taoist.
"Junior Brother Li, you have visited the Great Array of Heaven, and come with me," Xu Gu Zhenren suddenly said to Li Muran.
"Yes," Li Muran agreed.
Five great elders led more than a dozen true-body cultivators to fly to where the army of demon cultivators was originally located.
"The Heaven Hen barrier is here," Xu Gu Zhenren said, pointing to a place in the air. The Heaven Hen barrier was originally the territory of the Sanqing Temple, and it was not until the last hundred years that it was taken away by the demonic forces, so Xu Gu Zhenren was very familiar with this.
The great elder of Xuling Sect, Yu Xu Zhenren, nodded, but his eyes looked at the teleportation array below. Those high-level demon cultivators left here through this teleportation array.
"This teleportation array seems to have been destroyed. Can fellow Taoist Yuxu see any mystery?" Zhenren Xugu asked in his heart. He knew that Zhenren Yuxu was quite proficient in formation techniques.
Yuxu Zhenren focused his mind and carefully investigated the formation for a moment, and said, "This is obviously a directional teleportation array, but the formation on the other end of the teleportation array has been destroyed, so the current teleportation array cannot be activated. However, judging from the scale of this formation, it should be an extremely long-distance teleportation array, and the teleportation distance is enough to span the entire Middle Earth power."
"So far?" Xu Gu Zhenren was shocked again. If those high-level demon cultivators just wanted to avoid the battle, it would be enough to spread thousands of miles away. Why should they arrange an ultra-long-distance teleportation array here in advance?
"Can Fellow Daoist Yuxu see where this teleportation array leads?" asked Zhenren Xugu again.
True Man Yuxu shook his head and said, "This guy is not sure, he can only judge from the array pattern of the teleportation array that this teleportation array is teleporting to the west."
"Telection to the west?" Xu Gu Zhenren and others felt relieved when they heard this. There was nothing special about the several prefectures in the west of the Central Earth Kingdom, and they were originally occupied by demonic forces.
"It actually teleported so far, it seems that they will not come back," said Shi Gu Zhenren, "We'd better destroy the Tongtian Array first."
Several great monks nodded. Luo Buping took the initiative to say, "Luo, let me break the seal of this barrier."
After saying that, Luo Buping stretched out his palm and swayed in the air, but he used his hand as a sword and slashed a sword in vain.
A sharp sword light slashed out from his palm, crossing the sky, and immediately slashed the void in half.
At the cracks in the void, countless spiritual lights shone, and a large amount of pure heaven and earth vital energy escaped, which was the vital energy in the Tianhen barrier.
"Fellow Daoist Luo's sword skills have indeed reached the realm of transformation, which can be called the unity of human and sword. You can use such a powerful sword move without sacrificing the sword," said Master Xu Gu.
Then, his body flashed into the crack and entered the Tianhen barrier first.
Li Muran and other monks followed closely and entered them one after another, Fairy Ling was also inside.
"Junior Brother Li, where is the Great Array of the Heavens? Please give me some guidance." Xu Gu Zhenren said to Li Muran.
The high-level immortal cultivator never forgets it. Although Li Muran has only been here once, he has already remembered the terrain here clearly. He looked around the scenery and immediately knew it.
"Just not far from the front right, please come down." Li Muran said, and flew forward.
Under the leadership of him and Fairy Ling, everyone soon arrived near the Tongtian Formation.
Along the way, they only saw some demonic cultivators in the Dharma phase, and even a demonic cultivator in the true body phase encountered them.
When those demonic cultivators in the Dharma Realm stage saw these righteous masters, they were frightened and had no power to resist at all.
"Strange, in such a serious way, the true body demon cultivator has not sent to guard it. Could it be that the true body demon cultivator who guards here has already withdrawn with the army at the first time? Their movements are extremely fast," Li Muran said in his heart.
Two early-stage cultivators of the true body stayed and captured the magical demon cultivators. The remaining great monks and others followed Li Muran to investigate the inside of the Tongtian Array.
After a moment, Li Muran was even more surprised. This great formation of heaven originally had extremely rich pure demonic energy, but it disappeared at this time.
"It turned out to be an empty array." Yu Xu Zhenren frowned and murmured: "This great array of heaven is just a sign of appearance. It is actually just an empty array, and the core treasures of the array have been withdrawn."
Li Muran felt a little nervous when he heard this. It would take at least several days to withdraw such a large formation, and it could not have been completed in an instant. In other words, this great formation of the Heavens had been withdrawn long before the war between the righteous and the demons began.
In other words, the demon cultivator seemed to have expected that his side would be repelled, so he gave up this great formation of heaven in advance.
Since the demon cultivator has given up, why do you have to gather here to fight with the righteous path?
As long as the demon cultivator makes this matter public, this war can be completely avoided. As long as the demon cultivator does not insist on building the Great Array of Heaven, the righteous path will not fight with the demon cultivator at all costs.
"What mystery are those big demons playing with?" Xu Gu Zhenren frowned and became increasingly confused.
This mighty battle between the righteous and the demons was prepared for a long time, but it lasted for only half a day and ended with the retreat of the demon cultivator. The righteous army defeated the demon cultivator and regained the Tianhen barrier. The great formation of the heaven here no longer exists. The purpose of the major sects of the righteous path seemed to have been achieved, but the expressions of these righteous path top-level existences were even more solemn.
"Those old ghosts and scheming are absolutely impossible to start a war that is of no benefit to them for no reason. Although they don't know what their plans are, they are definitely not simple." Luo Buping showed a look of worry.
"Even if we responded during the real body period set by the demon cultivator, we could not find out the slightest news in advance. It seems that the old ghosts' plans were hidden very deeply. It took such a lot of effort. What they were trying to do must be a shocking event." Yuxu Zhenren shook his head repeatedly.
Just when everyone was extremely confused, Li Muran's face suddenly changed, and he sensed a high-level music transmission note in the storage bag to react.
