294: Actions of all parties

As an invisible Qi wave spread out, the stars in the sky twinkled unsteadily.

The mountains and continents trembled in unison!

The Seven Star God was also directly sent flying.

Qianqiu did not stop there, but stepped forward, raising her sword and slashing again!

Clang!

Seven Star raised his spear to block again.

Clang clang clang!

Qianqiu's movements were continuous, one sword faster than the last, swinging out several swords in succession.

Stab, wipe, hang, flick, point, collapse, twist…

All the techniques used were the most basic methods in swordsmanship.

With each sword strike, Qianqiu's imperial aura grew stronger.

After dozens of swords, the imperial aura reached its Peak.

Qianqiu retreated and swung a sword out of thin air!

Sword Qi swept across thirty thousand miles!

The sun and moon appeared dim before this sword light.

Across from him, the Seven Star Lord's eyes became hazy at this moment.

In a trance, he arrived inside a grand hall.

Qianqiu, dressed in a Dragon robe, sat upon the Dragon throne.

He, as a criminal, was shackled and knelt below.

The civil and military officials on both sides glared at him.

"Seven Star, do you admit your guilt?"

Qianqiu's vast voice entered his ears, and Seven Star felt his whole body tremble.

Guilt, fear, unwillingness… all kinds of negative emotions surged into his heart.

Seeing Seven Star not respond, the civil and military officials on both sides spoke in unison:

"Seven Star, do you admit your guilt?"

Their voices were like a mountain collapse and a tsunami, yet also like a great bell, lingering in his mind, refusing to dissipate!

Seven Star looked at the civil and military officials on both sides, then looked up at Qianqiu, who had stood up with her sword in hand.

Unknowingly, tears were streaming down his face.

"Your subject admits his guilt!"

As his words fell, Seven Star felt a chill at his neck.

In a blink of an eye, the scene before him changed again.

At this moment, Qianqiu, not far away, was still maintaining her sword-swinging posture.

He reached out to touch his neck, but as soon as his hand touched his neck, he felt a dizzying sensation.

Bang!

His head fell to the ground.

Looking at his own heels, Seven Star finally realized that he had been decapitated.

As his head fell, Seven Star's body also began to turn ethereal.

It was clearly a sign that the great formation could not be sustained and was about to break.

Qianqiu was about to press her advantage when Jiang Wubing's voice came:

"Senior Sister, don't pursue a cornered enemy!"

Upon hearing this, Qianqiu finally reacted.

She was supposed to lure the Mo Emperor's reinforcements; if she just broke the Seven Star formation like this, wouldn't the plan fail?

Thinking of this, Qianqiu secretly cursed herself for being too engrossed in power and almost forgetting the main task.

So, she raised her sword again towards the Seven Star God:

"Die!"

As the word landed, before Qianqiu could even swing her sword, a look of panic appeared on her face at the opportune moment.

Following that, under Qianqiu's deliberate control, the Ziwei Star God also began to show signs of collapse.

Qianqiu bit her lip unwillingly, then looked towards Zhenbei Pass: "Today, consider yourselves lucky. Next time, we will surely break through the pass!"

With that, the Ziwei Star God collapsed with a roar, transforming back into five million troops.

The Seven Star God also shattered, turning into Core Formation troops.

However, there were four hundred ninety thousand when the formation was set up, and now only about three hundred thousand remained.

Moreover, those who remained were all more or less injured.

Due Holy Master, who had been observing the situation below, let out a sigh of relief when he saw this.

In his eyes, this was because the Ziwei Star God, formed by Qianqiu, had overexerted herself, leading to the Ziwei Star God's lack of sustained power.

He looked at the special envoy beside him:

"Sir, what do you think we should do now?"

The special envoy's face also showed difficulty; he hadn't expected this result either.

After thinking for a moment, he immediately arranged for Due Holy Master:

"I observe that while the Great Abyss battle formation is strong, it lacks sustained power. If another great formation is to be deployed, troops will certainly need to be sent as support. They should not attack in the short term. You should change the Seven Star formation to the Five Star formation and keep the city gates tightly shut."

"I will go and ask Your Majesty, then we can make further plans."

Due Holy Master nodded and said: "Good."

The two finalized some more details, and the special envoy immediately went to Ancient Mo to report back.

However, neither Ancient Mo nor Great Abyss knew that a Fire Calamity Realm expert was leading seven Mahayana Peak cultivators, hidden in the Void Realm a thousand miles away.

One of the Mahayana cultivators spoke to the Fire Calamity Realm expert:

"Fire God, is it time?"

Fire God slowly shook his head:

"Both sides have their own calculations and still have reserves. The time is not yet ripe."

"Most importantly, not everyone has arrived yet."

"When we make our move, we must ensure absolute certainty!"

"Wait a little longer."

The Fire God mentioned by the Mahayana cultivator was precisely the mysterious person Lü Emperor had seen, and also the current head of Thousand Doors!

Thousand Doors' Eight Generals: Upright, Reverse, Wind, Fire, Remove, and Yao!

The Eight Generals are skilled in setting up schemes, each performing their own duties.

Among them, the Fire General is the Peak of combat power among the Eight Generals, primarily responsible for fighting.

Fire God is the leader of this Fire General.

Due to his strongest combat power, he is also the spokesperson for Thousand Doors.

He is respectfully called Fire God.

Previously, Fire God was pursued by the Ancient Mo Dynasty and fled into the Great Lu territory, where he was rescued by Lü Emperor.

To repay Lü Emperor's life-saving grace, he promised Lü Emperor to unconditionally agree to three of his conditions.

Fire God had already fulfilled the first two conditions. Lü Emperor's last condition was to eliminate the nine direct disciples of Forget-Love Peak!

In fact, Lü Emperor wanted Fire God to kill Gu Liangyuan even more.

But he knew that this condition was too difficult.

What the Mo Emperor couldn't do, Thousand Doors couldn't either.

So he settled for the next best thing, using this to vent his hatred for the five hundred fifty thousand troops that were annihilated!

Listening to Fire God's words, Yao General spoke again:

"Fire God still thinks things through. After this last action, our Thousand Doors will be free."

Fire God nodded: "Hopefully everything goes smoothly. Have the little ones been relocated?"

The Reverse General replied: "All have been arranged. There are no Thousand Doors members left in the Great Lu territory now."

Fire God then asked: "How is Gu Liangyuan's side?"

Wind General replied: "The item has been sent. I don't know if he will succumb to it."

"If not, then we can only forcibly stop him."

Fire God nodded again: "Hmm, do our best, and leave the rest to fate."

"After this job, we'll directly move to the South Sea Three Thousand Islands, far from the Eastern Continent, and live anonymously."

The other few also nodded.

Gu Liangyuan's actions were too ruthless; they felt that no amount of caution was too much.

Inside Forget-Love Hall, Gu Liangyuan sat cross-legged.

The two women, Yang and Lü, snuggled beside him.

Other than that, there was no one else in the hall.

All three of their gazes were focused on the small booklet in Gu Liangyuan's hand.

Much time had passed since the last great battle, and Jiang Wei had also been arranged to become a Grand Elder.

Initially, Jiang Wei was resistant, but after living there for a month, she suddenly realized that, aside from losing her freedom, being an Elder in Supreme Sacred Ground offered far better treatment than when she was in Heavenly Feet Sect.

Here, she could even obtain the Nine Revolutions Body Refining Cultivation Technique she had long dreamed of.

All kinds of Spirit Pills and miraculous medicines were readily available, and even longevity-extending spiritual items could be obtained if one performed exceptionally well.

There was even a supreme treasure like the Enlightenment Tower, which controlled the flow of time.

Slowly, she accepted this fact.

Her loyalty value also rose to fifty.

Although this level was not yet passing, she would no longer easily betray her master.

Furthermore, after the previous battle, Gu Liangyuan had another epiphany, and his Physical Body and cultivation broke through another minor realm, bringing his cultivation to Body Integration Seventh Layer and his Physical Body to Sixth Layer.

Looking at the illustrations in the booklet, Gu Liangyuan had a mischievous smile on his face, while the two women, Yang and Lü, had blushing faces.

The reason was none other than the content of the booklet, which was a Dual Cultivation Technique called "Dual Phoenix Soaring Dragon."

This booklet was offered to Gu Liangyuan by someone from the Dao Alliance.

Inside the booklet, one man and two women were depicted in various postures.
