Chapter 192 Black Mountain Gate’s Decision

In a majestic hall of the Black Mountain Gate, many powerful men with terrifying auras stood there quietly.

Among them, a powerful man in the Golden Body Realm came out and clasped his fists.

"Master, now the Demon Suppression Army is attacking in large numbers, and the White Lotus Sect is the first to bear the brunt. As its affiliated forces, we are bound to be affected. At this critical moment of life and death, what should the Black Mountain Gate do?"

After the words fell.

The Black Mountain Gate Master, who was surrounded by golden runes and exuded a terrifying aura, heard the words calmly and indifferently.

"The Demon Suppression Army is coming fiercely and fighting on multiple fronts. It is not so easy to take down the White Lotus Sect. Our main decision today is to choose to stand by and watch or support the White Lotus Sect."

Whether it is the White Lotus Sect or the Demon Suppression Army, they are all huge monsters. If the Black Mountain Gate handles them improperly, it will be severely damaged at best, and the mountain will be destroyed and the sect will be destroyed at worst, and the inheritance will be cut off. We should be very cautious.

"Master, now that the demon-suppressing army is coming fiercely, even if the White Lotus Sect is more powerful, I'm afraid it can't stop it. My Black Mountain Sect was once severely damaged and almost cut off its inheritance. Now it has just recovered half of its vitality. If it is consumed here, it will be impossible to rise again.

I think that my Black Mountain Sect will stay put for the time being. After the White Lotus Sect survives the first wave of the demon-suppressing army, we can see the situation clearly and discuss whether to support it.

If even the White Lotus Sect can't stand it, then my Black Mountain Sect will also consider continuing to move the mountain gate."

The meaning of this golden body elder is very clear, that is, he wants to wait and see.

If the demon-suppressing army is just a show, then his Black Mountain Sect will stand firmly in front of the White Lotus Sect.

If the White Lotus Sect can't resist, then the Black Mountain Sect can only abandon the mountain gate.

After the voice fell, many strong men in the hall changed their faces slightly, and it was obvious that they were all a little tempted by this proposal.

There is no other reason. They are afraid of the Yuan Dynasty and are even more afraid of the Demon Suppression Army.

The Demon Suppression Army is invincible wherever it points its spearhead.

Since eight hundred years ago, many sects were bloodbathed by the Yuan Emperor, and the inheritance was cut off. Hundreds of sects withdrew from Jiuzhou and moved to the near sea.

After that, the Demon Suppression Army continued to sweep, and many sects were destroyed.

The fierce power of the Demon Suppression Army was rising among the hundreds of sects, especially for their affiliated forces, who did not want to confront the Demon Suppression Army easily.

However, they did not speak, but set their eyes on the figure above.

In addition to the Supreme Elder, the only person who can make a decision in the Black Mountain Sect is their Sect Master.

Even if they say too much, it will not have much effect in the end. The final decision must be made by the Sect Master alone.

Different opinions can be resolved with just one voice.

Time passed slowly, and the Black Mountain Sect Master did not speak. After a silence, he looked at a white-haired old man with his eyes closed below with a golden glow.

"Grand Elder, what do you think about this matter?"

The Black Mountain Sect Master's voice was indifferent, and it was hard to tell whether he agreed with the proposal of the previous Golden Body Realm Elder.

The white-haired old man, the Grand Elder of the Black Mountain Sect, heard this, and slowly opened his cloudy eyes and shook his head slightly.

"The Fifth Elder wants to keep himself out of trouble and preserve the power of the sect. At other times, although there will be losses, it is not a bad approach. However, at this critical moment, it is inappropriate.

First of all, our Black Mountain Sect is a subsidiary force of the White Lotus Sect. We have been protected by it for hundreds of years and have been able to gain a breathing space. If we wait and see, we will not be able to get by in name. Even if we move the mountain gate to other places, how can we gain a foothold in the Hundred Sects?

Secondly, if the White Lotus Sect persists in the impact of the Demon Suppression Army, how will our Black Mountain Sect deal with the White Lotus Sect's liquidation after the Demon Suppression Army leaves?

We can't afford to offend the Demon Suppression Army, and we can't afford to offend the White Lotus Sect even more."

After the voice of the Great Elder fell, the strong men in the hall all looked embarrassed.

If the Black Mountain Sect retreats at this time, even if it can survive in the future, it will have no foothold in this near-sea area.

But if it does not retreat, it is very likely that the Huimi Sect will be exterminated and the inheritance will be cut off.

It is impossible to advance or retreat.

Falling into such a dilemma, it is ultimately due to the lack of strength.

During the peak period of the Black Mountain Sect, it was not much inferior to the White Lotus Sect. Now it is in such a situation, which makes many powerful people in the hall feel helpless.

"It is okay to be self-sufficient, but it also requires strength. If you want to be self-sufficient without strength, then my Black Mountain Sect has no place to stand in this near sea area."

The leader of the Black Mountain Sect spoke slowly.

"Eight hundred years ago, my Black Mountain Sect also had a place among the hundred sects, and it was not much different from the White Lotus Sect.

But it was because of wanting to wait and see and be self-sufficient that the high-level of the sect was destroyed and the inheritance was almost cut off.

Now, it is the moment of life and death again. We no longer have the foundation of eight hundred years ago. If we make the wrong decision again, there will be no chance to start over.

The voice of the leader of the Black Mountain Sect gradually became cold.

"So, we have only one choice, that is to stand firmly on the side of the White Lotus Sect. "

After these words were spoken, there was a moment of silence in the hall.

A single word can decide the matter. This is the power of the leader of the Black Mountain Sect.

However, even if the choice is made, how to implement the plan specifically still requires consideration and weighing.

"Master, we will definitely not oppose your decision, and we have no right to oppose it. However, I think that even if we stand firmly on the side of the White Lotus Sect, we must ensure that the Black Mountain Sect does not suffer too heavy losses, otherwise it will be no different from being exterminated."

The fifth elder of the Black Mountain Sect continued: "I propose that the sect's strength should be divided into three parts, one part to fully support the White Lotus Sect, one part to stay in the sect and wait and see, and the last part to retreat secretly."

As soon as the voice fell, someone's eyes lit up and couldn't help but say: "This is a good idea."

"After years of operation and development, the sect has secretly recovered some vitality. Even the White Lotus Sect does not know how strong our Black Mountain Sect is. .

Even if the White Lotus Church knew, but our Black Mountain Sect sent one-third of its forces to support, it was nominally acceptable, and they and the Hundred Sects would not say much, and they would not bear the wrath of the White Lotus Church in the future.

Another part can take part of the sect inheritance and seek another place to ensure that the sect inheritance will not be cut off.

The remaining people, who stayed in the sect, can wait and see. If the White Lotus Church has something to do, this part can go all out to make up for the dissatisfaction of the White Lotus Church.

If the Great Yuan Demon Suppression Army is unstoppable, this part of the people can transfer all the sect inheritance in time. "

Hearing this, the third elder also nodded frequently. Although this proposal came from his mouth, he did not think so much.

His only idea was to preserve the sect inheritance, which was more important than anything else.

A spark can start a prairie fire. As long as there is a chance, he does not want to let it go.

He had sneaked into the Great Yuan before and knew the foundation and strength of the Great Yuan.

If the Great Yuan went all out, even if the Hundred Sects joined forces to fight, there would not be much chance.

Moreover, the hundreds of sects have been based in the coastal waters for many years. Because of the disputes over interests, there are many contradictions. It is more difficult to put aside prejudices and unite with each other.

However, the Great Yuan Dynasty is spreading its military power throughout the world, with one heart and one mind, and actively expanding. Its momentum is like the rising sun, which is unstoppable.

Under such circumstances, there is still a chance for the Black Mountain Sect to betray the White Lotus Sect.

If it confronts the Great Yuan Demon Suppression Army, it will only be destroyed.

But the leader has made a decision, and he cannot change it. The only thing that can be changed is to leave a glimmer of hope for the Black Mountain Sect.

The leader of the Black Mountain Sect looked at the other party deeply and said faintly: "In this case, let the fifth elder lead a group of core disciples to leave the sect first!"

After that, he closed his eyes and stopped talking.

He knew the crisis that the Black Mountain Sect would face this time.

However, as the leader of the Black Mountain Sect, he did not want to repeat the path taken by his ancestors eight hundred years ago.

He is the leader of the Black Mountain Sect, he cannot retreat!

Also, the war has not come yet, and everything is unclear.

…

The warship quickly passed through the deep space, shaking up layers of space ripples.

When it came to the near sea area, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth seemed to become thicker, and at the same time, the void was filled with thick water mist, which greatly reduced the vision to less than 50% of the original.

But this did not affect the speed of the warship. The mighty fleet was enough to ignore everything.

Especially the giant ship "Zhenyuan" was there, even the strong men in the heavenly realm had to temporarily avoid the edge.

Suddenly.

The void surged, as if something was approaching quickly, and a huge mouth opened, as if it was going to swallow the treasure boat and all the warriors on the treasure boat.

However, facing such a huge monster. , Everyone was calm, without any panic.

Sure enough, when the huge mouth of the monster was about to touch the treasure boat, a bright light emanated from the treasure boat, and a powerful force burst out and bombarded the huge mouth.

"Aohou!"

The treasure boat just swayed lightly, but a tragic wail came from the deep sky.

"Hmph, a mere seventh-level sea beast dared to attack my Great Yuan Demon Suppression Army, it's simply courting death!"

A cold voice came out, and a black figure stepped out of the treasure boat and sank directly into the void.

Looking at the golden runes flashing around the man, Lu Yun's face moved.

"A strong man in the Fuzhong realm!"

Moreover, he vaguely saw that there were at least more than seventy runes around this man, which was extremely powerful.

A warrior at the peak of the Golden Body Realm, as long as he used a strong physical body as a foundation, engraved the laws of heaven and earth into runes, and finally condensed them into Fuzhong, and experienced the baptism of thunder tribulation, he could be promoted to the Fuzhong realm.

And Fuzhong has four grades.

First, Fuzhong smelted thirty-six law runes, which is a low-grade Fuzhong.

Second, Fuzhong smelted sixty-four law runes, which is a medium-grade Fuzhong.

Third, the rune seeds have 81 law runes, which is a top-grade rune seed.

Fourth, 99 runes are top-grade rune seeds.

This person released more than 70 law runes around his body, which means that the runes he condensed are at least medium-grade runes, very close to the top grade.

Moreover, this does not guarantee that these are all the runes of the other party.

Boom!

The movement from the void is enough to prove that this sea beast is not as simple as an ordinary seventh-level beast.

Even so, soon there was a stream of blood floating down, like a heavy rain.

This kind of strength is definitely not something that a simple rune seed realm strongman can do.

"The Earth-level demon-slayer general is indeed very powerful."

Lei Canghe felt the fluctuations in the void gradually subsiding, and a light of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Not long after, a huge monster fell from the depths of the void. Before it landed on the treasure boat, the golden rune flashed and the body disappeared.

At the same time, the black-clothed earth-level demon general floated down and landed on the treasure boat.

"The blood of the seventh-level sea beast is of great value. It can temper the body and improve the physical strength of you demon guards. Refine it well for me."

After saying that, he waved his hand, and the blood of the seventh-level sea beast fell on each demon guard.

"Thank you, General Zhuang!"

The demon guards on the treasure boat all showed excitement on their faces, and looked at the black-clothed demon general with more admiration.

On the other side, Lei Canghe whispered to Lu Yun: "This demon general is called Zhuang Ziyuan. He is one of the youngest earth-level demon generals in the demon-suppressing army. He condensed a top-grade rune seed, and his strength is powerful and famous."

Lu Yun smiled faintly.

Is it really a top-grade rune seed?

He had guessed it before, but now it was confirmed by Lei Canghe.

Lu Yun no longer paid attention to the heroic low-level demon slayer, but looked into the depths of the void and asked. "Elder Lei, isn't the coastal area the territory of Baizong? How come there are such powerful sea beasts?"

"The coastal area is almost all land, which is not suitable for ordinary sea creatures to live, but it is also the territory of sea beasts.

However, eight hundred years ago, Baizong escaped from Jiuzhou and fought a fierce battle with sea beasts.

In the end, because the strength of sea beasts on land could not be fully exerted, they were defeated and retreated to the outer sea area.

From then on, the coastal area became the territory of Baizong.

However, the hatred and grievances between Baizong and the sea creatures have been formed since then. For hundreds of years, many high-level sea beasts have invaded the territory of Baizong from time to time."

Hearing this, Lu Yun nodded slightly.

"According to this, we have helped Bai Zong solve a problem."

Lei Canghe shook his head: "It's not right to say that. Bai Zong is human after all. The conflict between Da Yuan and Bai Zong is a conflict of Taoism and position, while the conflict between them and monsters and sea people is a racial conflict."

"The racial conflict is far greater than the conflict of Taoism and position, so Da Yuan has been focusing on expelling monsters and opening up the endless wilderness for hundreds of years, and suppressing Bai Zong is a secondary task.

If Bai Zong hadn't often offended Da Yuan, today's battle would not have come so soon."

Lei Canghe's words were something Lu Yun had never considered before.

However, this also made him more curious about the Da Yuan Imperial Court.

The warship continued to travel in deep space, encountering more than one sea beast attack on the way, but they were all killed by the strong men on the warship.

Their bodies became trophies, and their blood became treasures to enhance the physical strength of the demon-killing guards.

Time passed slowly.

Standing on the warship, you can vaguely see the prosperous city below.

However, the people living in the city were all ordinary people under the rule of hundreds of sects. The Demon-Suppressing Army did not harm them at all and continued to advance deeper into the city.
