Although the three holy lands were quarreling non-stop, they all understood that they had to come up with a plan now.
Their disciples could not sacrifice themselves in this place for nothing. After all, nurturing disciples was very resource-intensive.
Once the disciples suffered too much damage, the foundation of the three holy lands would be unstable.
The three holy lands may have been dominating for many years, but there were still people who opposed them.
“Alright! Let’s not hide it anymore! This connate numinous treasure will be very difficult to obtain if we don’t show some ability!”
“Moreover, this Chaotian Temple seems a little strange. There might be a great Devil sealed inside!”
“Otherwise, the Chaotian Temple wouldn’t have been destroyed overnight!”
“…”
After the argument, the three holy lands finally compromised.
They had already realized that the Chaotian Temple’s ruins were not as simple as they had imagined.
The eerie spreading power and the strange bell chimes indicated that a great Devil was suppressed there.
In fact, the three holy lands had a good understanding of the Chaotian Temple.
According to the legends, the reason the Chaotian Temple had been destroyed overnight was probably that a great Devil had broken the seal.
In the end, the Chaotian Temple had no choice but to pull the entire sect to suppress this great Devil.
Of course, this was just a rumor that had been passed down.
It seemed that this rumor was very likely true now.
If it weren’t for the great Devil being suppressed there, the Cold Wind mountain range wouldn’t have become like this, nor would the Chaotian Temple have been destroyed.
Once this great Devil escaped, the three holy lands would be the first to bear the brunt.
Therefore, other than being attracted by the connate numinous treasure, the three holy lands had another goal: to find a way to deal with the Cold Wind mountain range.
Not only did they want to deal with the great Devil that was suppressed here, but also the demonic cultivators gathered here.
It was rare for the three holy lands to gather here because of a connate numinous treasure.
Naturally, they had to do something.
Although the three holy lands had been competing all this time, they were on the same side from a certain point of view.
The three holy lands absolutely would not allow other powers to be on equal footing with them.
Three holy lands were enough.
“Good! Since it’s like this, the three of us will work together. We have to move together to enter and exit the Cold Wind mountain range. How about that?”
“No problem. We might as well merge our bases into one in the Cold Wind mountain range.”
“First, we will eliminate all the unexpected factors, and then we will fight for the ownership of the connate numinous treasure. What do you think?”
“…”
With a consensus, the progress of the negotiations among the three holy lands increased a lot in an instant.
Under various pressures, the three holy lands joined forces.
The Chaotian Temple, this fat piece of meat, would fall in the three holy lands’ hands even if it was rotten.
The others wanted to eat this piece of meat? No way!
Moreover, even if one of the holy lands obtained a connate numinous treasure, it was actually not a good thing.
This would inevitably cause the other two holy lands to join forces. When that time came, the situation would be completely different.
The combined strength of the three great holy lands was terrifying.
For a time, a large number of resources and personnel were mobilized to the Cold Wind mountain range.
The vagabond cultivators and small sects couldn’t even withstand a single blow and were all wiped out.
Afterward, the three great holy lands established a super stronghold in the Cold Wind mountain range.
They dispersed the Yin Qi in the surroundings and set up a super formation to clean up the nearby Yin Beasts.
The three holy lands terraformed the Cold Wind mountain range’s originally harsh environment to establish a safe stronghold with their manpower.
During this period, countless demonic cultivators suffered in the hands of the elite disciples of the three great holy lands.
These demonic cultivators were not worth mentioning at all.
In the end, one-on-one battles were no match for groups of people.
Even Shi Li’s Salvation Ghost Army suffered heavy losses.
No one had expected the three great holy lands to unite so quickly. Normally, shouldn’t they be bickering for some time before slowly uniting in the end?
However, only Zhou Feng was an exception.
He was still crazily attacking the disciples of the three holy lands with the help of the AI and Hexadirectional Calculation.
He was able to escape unharmed every time.
‘So fat~’
Zhou Feng took a look at the spoils of war and threw them into his storage ring.
Compared to obedient farming, snatching what he needed was much faster.
His little treasury had been expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye during this period.
But the price of doing so was that the entire Cold Wind mountain range knew of Zhou Feng’s existence, especially the Jade Sword Holy Land.
Under the new and old grudges, they viewed him as a thorn in their side.
Zhou Feng’s growth was too fast!
He had been a mere Purple Mansion cultivator, but he became a Divine Ability cultivator in the blink of an eye.
Later on, he even managed to fight to a draw with Jiang Yi. This time, he appeared in the Cold Wind mountain range.
It was unknown how much his strength had grown.
In any case, not a single one of those so-called holy land disciples was able to escape from his hands.
It was too terrifying!
This rate of growth made the Jade Sword Holy Land feel fear.
Jiang Yi was even more clear that Zhou Feng most likely had a Dao Seal on his body. That was the legacy of a large sect!
‘I can’t let him continue to grow! I must kill this person in the cradle!’
Thinking of this, Jiang Yi didn’t continue to hide this matter and shared his guess with the sect.
Thus, the news of Zhou Feng having a Dao Seal spread.
Crazy!
That’s right! After the others heard this news, almost all of them fell into crazy emotions.
The moment this piece of news spread, almost everyone fell into a frenzy.
This was really tempting!
Those who could condense a Dao Seal were at least Dragon Transformation experts and above.
As long as one had a Dao Seal, wouldn’t this be equivalent to one’s own cultivation path becoming the Great Dao of reaching heaven?
No wonder the growth speed of Zhou Feng, a mere vagabond cultivator, was so fast and unreasonable!
For this, the three great holy lands even put aside the exploration of the Chaotian Temple’s ruins and focused most of their attention on Zhou Feng.
Originally, Zhou Feng didn’t have any reaction to this.
No one could do anything to him as long as he wanted to hide in the Cold Wind mountain range.
But what he didn’t expect was that the three great holy lands had found out about his experience in Heavenly Star City.
The Li Clan of Heavenly Star City was implicated because of him, and the entire clan was captured.
Among them was Li Rong, his rumored love.
After Zhou Feng’s battle with Jiang Yi, the Jade Sword Holy Land began to investigate Zhou Feng’s background bit by bit. He had fled unscathed, after all.
No one jumped out of a rock.
Since Zhou Feng could cultivate to such a degree, he must have made some friends. Even vagabond cultivators would have some friends.
Although the method of using someone that Zhou Feng had once known to threaten him was despicable, it was effective.
As for the innocent?
In the eyes of many people, there were no innocent people. Being weak was the original sin.
This world was just so pragmatic and cruel.
“If you want your little lover to live, then come out and surrender!”
After Zhou Feng learned this, a trace of surprise appeared on his face. He did not expect that he would actually implicate Li Rong’s entire clan.
Then, a hint of killing intent began to condense.
There was no other expression on his face as he softly said, “Very good!”
