Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

As the flying boat had not yet landed, cultivators quickly leaped down to the ground from the boat.

These cultivators swiftly formed a Base Formation on the ground.

In front of each Base Formation, cultivators raised large flags, displaying the emblems of their respective forces to indicate their origins.

With Xia Houfeng's sharp eyesight, even from a distance, he could clearly see the emblems and recognize the origins of the various forces.

"White Sun Valley, Iron Armor Gate, Scarlet Flame Union..." Xia Houfeng casually recited the origins of these forces.

All these cultivation forces came from the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle, where they were prominent and powerful major sects.

Especially the White Sun Valley, which was one of the top forces in the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle. Both in strength and heritage, it was not inferior to the Azure Origin Sect and the Jade Sword Sect. It could completely contend with these two sects.

The Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle and the Jiuqu League had limited interaction. Officially, there was rarely any exchange between them.

In the past, in order to resist the Dali Dynasty, the Jiuqu League had tried many times to form an alliance with the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle and even sent a high-level delegation. However, the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle had always ignored them and outright refused the alliance request.

Now that the Dali Dynasty had taken over almost half of the Jiuqu League and was preparing to conquer the other half, the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle finally sent reinforcements.

It was unclear whether the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle truly felt the threat posed by the Dali Dynasty or if there were other reasons behind their decision.

After the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle's reinforcements finished their preparations, they wasted no time and quickly rushed toward the Dali Dynasty's army.

Xia Houfeng remained calm and composed, calmly responding to the situation.

He dispatched a portion of his troops from the rear to meet them head-on.

The strength of the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle's reinforcements was formidable, almost on par with the Jade Sword Sect's side.

Both the Primordial Spirit True Monarchs and the low-level cultivators in their army were not much weaker than those from the Yellow Lotus Sect's Main Altar.

The arrival of these reinforcements quickly dispersed the Dali Dynasty's forces, relieving some burden from the Jade Sword Sect's side.

The Dali Dynasty's offensive had almost come to a halt; being caught in a pincer attack was no pleasant experience.

While the Jade Sword Sect's side defended the inner circle, the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle's reinforcements attacked from the outside.

This was called "the center blossoms, attacked from both inside and outside."

The situation quickly reversed. The previously overwhelmingly dominant Dali Dynasty's side began to lose the initiative, gradually equalizing the battle.

The fact that White Sun Valley and many other sects came to reinforce the Jade Sword Sect was indeed beyond Xia Houfeng's expectations.

The Dali Dynasty, which had considered the Jiuqu League as good as theirs, had their sights set far ahead, already considering the direction of their next expansion.

The nearest target for them was the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle.

In the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle, the Dali Dynasty had long placed undercover agents and made numerous arrangements.

Although they couldn't claim to have full control over the situation in the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle, their intelligence network was highly efficient, providing them with the latest information at any time.

They had received no warnings in advance, and the reinforcements sent by the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle appeared behind them silently, directly influencing the course of the battle.

It was unclear whether there was an issue with their own intelligence system or if the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle's methods were too sophisticated.

Even though the situation was unfavorable, Xia Houfeng remained as calm as ever.

If the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle had sent out all its forces, with all the major sects making a full effort, Xia Houfeng would have no choice but to retreat and cut their losses.

However, it seemed that the strength of the reinforcements sent by the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle was quite limited. Although they posed a greater challenge, they were not invincible.

It is unknown whether the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle was being careless or unable to reach a consensus.

The reinforcements sent were primarily from White Sun Valley, and they gathered a group of sects and families. However, that was all; no other top-level cultivation forces joined them.

So far, there has been no appearance of a Primordial Spirit late-stage cultivator among the reinforcements.

Xia Houfeng was confident and showed no intention of backing down.

As a powerhouse at the Primordial Spirit late stage, he was the most powerful card in his hand.

He was prepared; as soon as the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle's reinforcements advanced a bit further, he would personally lead his personal guards to surprise the enemy.

Near the Yellow Lotus Sect's Main Altar, the defense lines guarded by Taiyi Sect had already turned into a scene of carnage.

The Formation set up by Deep Earth Spirit General and Wen Qiansun was formidable, but it had its limits.

After continuous and fierce attacks from the Dali Dynasty's overwhelming forces, numerous gaps and weaknesses appeared in the Formation.

The Dali Dynasty's army continuously poured in through these gaps. Cultivators from Taiyi Sect and the Hanhai Alliance rushed forward, sacrificing their lives to block these openings.

Taiyi Sect's strongest pillar and greatest reliance, Primordial Spirit True Monarch Meng Zhang, was currently too busy dealing with his own situation and had no ability to assist.

In the sky, Meng Zhang was under the joint attack of Wen Dong True Monarch and Marshal Wang, making his situation extremely difficult.

Wen Dong True Monarch wielded a formidable Fourth Rank magic tool, a folding fan that could generate sharp gusts of wind with each wave.

Marshal Wang, who appeared rough but was actually quite meticulous, carefully controlled a Fourth Rank flying sword, continuously restricting Meng Zhang's movements.

Lacking a Fourth Rank magic tool and being significantly weaker in terms of Cultivation Base, Meng Zhang struggled to fend off the attacks, like a lone boat in a violent storm, always on the verge of being overwhelmed.

Wen Dong True Monarch had gained an absolute advantage and had the leisure to taunt Meng Zhang.

He sometimes berated Meng Zhang for being arrogant and disrespectful towards Ba Wudi, and at other times, he cursed him for not appreciating his kindness...

Meng Zhang ignored Wen Dong True Monarch and was currently unable to respond at all.

He felt immense pressure, making it difficult to even catch his breath, let alone speak.

Meng Zhang seemed to have been forced to a certain extreme. After a muffled groan, he unleashed the Great Divine Ability "Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang Transformation."

The sky, which was still radiant with the setting sun, suddenly became extremely dark, as if night had fallen directly.

Meng Zhang's move to change the celestial phenomena while in a disadvantageous position undoubtedly had a purpose.

Wen Dong True Monarch became secretly vigilant, but he was still a step too slow to stop Meng Zhang.

In front of Meng Zhang appeared a palm-sized altar, which quickly grew larger and was adorned with various offerings.

Meng Zhang rapidly chanted a few incantations, and the altar trembled violently. A bone-chilling Yin wind blew through the sky, sending shivers down one's spine.

After a moment, a huge rift tore open in the sky above the altar.

A massive Ghost Deity with two horns on its head, towering in size, with a terrifying green face and fangs, struggled and crawled out of the rift.

This Ghost Deity was none other than a former cultivator of Taiyi Sect and currently a subordinate of Netherworld Ghost Deity Shou Zheng. It was one of his avatars.
