The only way

Chapter 908: Yunzhou Crisis

The demons' actions this time were decisive and covert.

After being openly wiped out by the human race, the remaining demon army concentrated its forces to counterattack the Donglu Xianmen, attracting all of Donglu Xianmen's attention to the five battlefields in the five states, and dispatched the remaining cultivators to resist the counterattack of the demon army.

Secretly, he chose Yunzhou, which was located in the marginal area, and Fuyou Palace, which was the weakest among the five major immortal sects, as his targets.

Most of the demon army that was teleported by undiscovered teleportation arrays and those that were subsequently teleported over were teleported to Yunzhou through the Five States Teleportation Array that the demons had established when they first arrived in East Land.

Some of them ambushed outside the major cities of Yunzhou, and the rest, while the attention of various states was diverted, isolated Jingxiao City with the force of thunder and destroyed the Jingxiao City formation with precious treasures.

Afterwards, before the immortal sects in Yunzhou could react, he directly sacrificed the entire Jingxiao City in order to shake Yunzhou's Jiuxiao Universe Formation.

As soon as the great formation was shaken, Bixiao City, which was at the center of the battlefield at that time, suffered the greatest impact and became the first immortal city occupied by the demons.

At the same time, the demon army ambushed in various places in Yunzhou also took the opportunity to attack major cities and immortal gates, making the Yunzhou immortal gates powerless and unable to spare the strength to rescue the fallen areas.

In just half an hour, the head of the Fuyou Palace, Master Bi Xin, had received dozens of messages asking for help.

All the larger immortal gates in Yunzhou have been invaded by the demon army to varying degrees, and the immortal gates can only temporarily choose to prioritize defending their own mountain gates.

As for the small immortal sects and small forces in Yunzhou, they were not attacked by the demon army because the number of the demon army was limited, but even so, the small forces could only protect themselves.

Yunzhou is now in dire straits.

One careless move and you lose everything.

Although Fuyou Palace is one of the five major immortal gates and the first immortal gate in Yunzhou, the demon army did not come to it because the demons knew that although Fuyou Palace was the last of the five major immortal gates, its strength was not weak.

The demon army is limited. Instead of suffering losses on both sides with the Fuyou Palace, it is better to occupy and capture other immortal gates in Yunzhou first.

Once Yunzhou is occupied by the demons, no matter how powerful the Fuyou Palace is, it will be like a rootless duckweed, isolated and helpless.

If the Floating Palace wants to intervene, it must divide and conquer. If the demons leave the Floating Palace gate, they may be able to devour the monks of the Floating Palace bit by bit.

No matter which option is chosen, the Fuyou Palace will suffer a serious loss of vitality and will most likely be unable to recover and fall out of the list of the five major immortal gates in East Land.

For the Floating Palace, this situation is a life-and-death situation, and it is also a sign of a great disaster.

"Since most of the demon army has gathered here, the other four states should have spare strength. Why don't we ask for help?"

An elder from the Floating Palace made this suggestion.

"Seeking help? Yunzhou is backed by the Infinite Ocean. There are numerous monsters in the ocean, and they are not on good terms with humans. Although it borders Chiyangzhou, Zhongzhou, and Jiumingzhou, the Chiyang Dao Sect and the Sanqing Dao Sect are both far away from the state. The nearest Qianji Pavilion..."

Having said this, the sect leader, True Lord Bi Xin, stopped talking. Although he had not finished speaking, everyone present had already understood.

Qianji Pavilion is also listed among the five major immortal sects in East Land, but it has never been good at fighting, and its disciples are very scarce.

It’s just that Qianji Pavilion is well versed in the secrets of heaven and has unpredictable methods. Although they have the fewest people, few are willing to offend them.

However, no matter how mysterious it is, it cannot change the fact that Qianji Pavilion is not good at fighting and has few people.

Counting on Qianji Pavilion to come to our aid? It would be nothing but a drop in the bucket.

Unless the Divine Transformation cultivators from the Qianji Pavilion come, the Divine Transformation cultivators and even the Nascent Soul cultivators from the major immortal sects will not really come out in full force, because they are also worried that this might be a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

No matter how powerful the Floating Palace is, it is not as important as the safety of the major immortal sects themselves.

If only one or two Nascent Soul cultivators came to help, it would be of no use. If five or six Nascent Soul cultivators came to help, the major immortal sects would be afraid to take any risks and would not be willing to let their own Nascent Soul cultivators take risks.

The lowest level of cultivation among the elders present were all Jindan cultivators, and most of them had lived for hundreds of years, so it was no wonder they could see through these facts.

"Assholes! These demons must have made plans! At worst, we can just fight them to the death! Look at Yunzhou and Donglu, whose territory is it!"

The elders with quick tempers slammed their chairs in anger, their voices sharp and fierce.

"The demons are scattered everywhere. We are going to various places to support them. Who knows if it will be another trap set by the demons? If we go to support them, the sect will be empty. What if Jingxiao City is captured? How can we let the foundation of the sect be destroyed in our hands!"

Some conservative and cautious elders disagreed and refuted it without hesitation.

"Why don't we send our disciples away first? This way, whether we are defending the mountain gate or fighting the demons, at least the inheritance of our Floating Palace will not be lost here."

Some elders were already considering a way out, their words full of helplessness.

"We can't leave Yunzhou! We can't give up the mountain gate. If we give up, how can we keep the inheritance of Fuyou Palace?"

The mountain gates of all immortal sects are carefully selected, and after hundreds, thousands, and even millions of years, generations of cultivators have continuously built and renovated them, and eighty percent of their heritage is within the mountain gates.

If Yunzhou and the mountain gate of the Floating Palace were abandoned, then 80% of the foundation of the Floating Palace would be destroyed.

Even if the remaining inheritance is taken away by the disciples, without sufficient strength to protect it, it would be like a child holding gold but committing a crime in the possession of a treasure.

By that time, I am afraid that the inheritance of the Floating Palace will be completely gone.

"There are still two great elders in the palace! Whether the demons occupy Yunzhou or our Fuyou Palace is far away from Yunzhou, with the great elders here, what do we have to fear?"

The reason why the top immortal sect is the top immortal sect is because of the incarnation monks in the sect.

As long as the Divine Transformation cultivator of the Floating Palace is there, even if there is only one disciple left, even if there is no mountain gate, he is not an existence that ordinary people dare to provoke.

"Does the demon clan have no gods? If we stay here and let the demon clan occupy Yunzhou, even if we have the Supreme Elder in Fuyou Palace, we can only survive!"

"That's right. Yunzhou cannot be abandoned. If Yunzhou is occupied by the demons and the human race declines, where will we in Fuyou Palace find disciples to inherit our legacy in ten or a hundred years?"

The five major immortal gates each guard a state, which actually divides their own territories. The resources within the state naturally belong first to the immortal gate guarding this place.

These resources not only include blessed places and natural treasures, but also good talents for cultivating immortals.

Once Yunzhou is occupied by the demons, even if Fuyou Palace can seal off the mountains to protect itself, the sect will have no successors, and the blessed land and natural treasures will be cut off. Relying solely on the foundation of Fuyou Palace, it will sooner or later decline.

There was constant quarreling in the hall. The monks who used to be so high and mighty and had such sage-like demeanor could not hide their anxiety and restlessness at this moment.

True Lord Bi Xin, who was sitting at the top, listened for a while with his eyes closed, and finally spoke slowly.
