Chapter 1121: Chapter 743: Demon Monarch’s Accusation

This assembly for discussion still features eighteen True Masters.

However, the composition now is vastly different from years past.

Back then, six Great Golden Core Cultivators would confer together, now only three remain.

Furthermore, True Master Tian Feng and True Master Celestial Thunder have rarely attended these recent years.

This time, it was True Master Ling Xiao who repeatedly extended invitations, specifying an extremely important matter.

Only then did the two reluctantly join the meeting.

Soon, they understood the reason.

A Sect Steward reported on matters related to the Cyan Cloud Sect’s Daoist Demon War.

Originally, the Daoist Demon War between Song and Liang Countries was a proving ground for training and testing Core Formation Seeds from both sects.

There was a longstanding tacit agreement between Daoist Sects and Demon Sects of both countries.

Core Formation Cultivators were prohibited from entering the fray.

With Song Country’s border counties as the battleground, the sects’ Core Formation Seeds would vie against each other, honing their Dao Hearts, acquiring merits, and collecting cultivation resources.

Under typical circumstances, these Core Formation Seeds could preserve their lives.

After all, they are the future pillars carefully nurtured by the sects; even if they fail in Core Formation, they are still formidable at Foundation Establishment Perfection, able to continue contributing to the sect.

The cultivation resources they contest are not mere common Spiritual Objects and Demons.

For Demon Cultivators, they are the flesh, bones, and souls of low tier Spirit Cultivators and the essence of mortal world’s innocent souls.

For Spirit Cultivators, they are the lives and belongings of low tier Demon Cultivators.

Consuming their flesh helps Core Formation Seeds in Condensing the Inner Core.

Such Daoist Demon Wars often drag on for decades.

Once both sides’ Core Formation Seeds achieved Perfection, they would tacitly cease the fight, recalling troops and returning to their sects.

However, this time True Master Profound Ice returned to Song Country, forcefully breaking this thousand-year-old unwritten rule.

Not only did he cut down several Demon Sect Saint Children, he also single-handedly slayed Elder Master Xuan Shi from the Corpse Refining Sect, destroying both his spirit and body!

Thus, on the border counties of Song Country, Demon Cultivators withdrew in fear, halting their banners, and the conflict suddenly calmed.

But True Master Ling Xiao received an accountability letter from the Corpse Refining Sect at his table.

"Everyone, please take a look."

True Master Ling Xiao’s expression turned grave as he gently placed a letter encircled with Demonic Qi at the center of the jade table in front of him.

The True Masters in the hall stiffened, all extending their Divine Sense to scrutinize the letter.

This letter was personally written by Wan Hai Demon Monarch, with imposing demonic power.

The content was straightforward.

Your sect’s True Master Profound Ice, relying on Divine Power Realm cultivation, slaughtered two of our sect’s Saint Children before, and later attacked and killed our sect’s Elder Master Xuan Shi. Brutal actions, cruel methods, utterly disregarding the rules of Daoist Demon trials, openly trampling on our sect’s thousand-year orthodoxy.

Cyan Cloud Sect must bind True Master Profound Ice and send him to the Corpse Refining Sect for judgment. You must publicly announce to the Cultivation Realm in Song Country these transgressions, and expel him from the sect.

Additionally, compensate ten Golden Transformation Pills and thirty million Spirit Stones.

This must be done within three months.

If Cyan Cloud Sect fails to comply, this seat will personally lead a million corpse army, riding the Nine Netherworld Corpse Dragon, to level Cyan Cloud Sect’s mountain gate, leaving no life behind!

Wan Hai Demon Monarch is the Supreme Elder of Corpse Refining Sect, a Demon Infant Patriarch.

Renowned for centuries, with a fierce reputation, infamous far and wide.

Three hundred years ago, a great war broke out between Song and Liang Countries.

This demon commanded the Nine Netherworld Corpse Dragon and severely injured True Monarch Liuyun from Divine Sword Sect.

True Monarch Liuyun is a Sword Infant Nascent Soul, his Innate Divine Power Liuyun Carefree Sword Technique prodigious in might, a top-tier combatant among Nascent Soul True Monarchs in Song Country.

After this battle, his Nascent Soul was damaged, his Dao Foundation impaired, his cultivation stalled, hard to progress.

Wan Hai Demon Monarch thus established a renowned reputation.

The Corpse Refining Sect also flourished greatly in Liang Country, rapidly rising above the other two sects, becoming the leader among the lower Three Sects.

Now, this notoriously fierce Demon Infant Patriarch personally writes an accountability letter and directly sends it to Cyan Cloud Sect.

How can Cyan Cloud Sect not be prepared with wariness?

The True Masters in the hall scanned the letter with their Divine Sense, most choosing silent contemplation, their expressions serious.

With their Golden Core or True Pill cultivation levels, they are not qualified to directly confront Wan Hai Demon Monarch.

"This is unreasonable!"

Amidst the silence, True Master Zhi Yi suddenly slammed the table, his voice echoing through the hall.

"Injustice has its source, debts have their owner! This old demon, instead of seeking Junior Brother Profound Ice to resolve grievances, comes to oppress the sect, clearly bullies the weak and fears the strong, thinking Cyan Cloud Sect is easy to manipulate!"

True Master Ling Xiao coughed lightly, his gaze first sweeping towards True Masters Tian Feng and Celestial Thunder beside him.

Seeing both observing silently without intention to speak.

He then sternly spoke: "Junior Brother Zhi Yi, be cautious with words! Junior Brother Profound Ice is also one of Cyan Cloud Sect’s disciples. The Demon Monarch sent a letter of accountability to the sect first, which is a Cultivation Realm’s convention."

"Though it’s convention, this junior’s heart is still resentful!"

True Master Zhi Yi pressed on unyieldingly, his speech accelerating, "This matter is originally done by Junior Brother Profound Ice personally, let the Demon Monarch settle accounts with him. Why do they threaten the sect with such coercion!"

"The sect will not let them have their way, let them manipulate as they wish!"

"At worst, Cyan Cloud Sect will stand honorably against Corpse Refining Sect and engage in battle!"

True Master Zhi Yi’s words were fierce, not ceasing argument.

He is the direct disciple of Spirit Sword True Monarch, with a special status.

If he had not yet Condensed his Golden Core.

The position of Sect Leader might not even have fallen to True Master Ling Xiao.

Within Cyan Cloud Sect, he’s the representative for Spirit Sword True Monarch’s faction.

True Master Profound Ice is a Tier Four Cultivator, possessing vast Divine Power.

True Master Zhi Yi dares not, nor should he criticize him.

He can only vent all his dissatisfaction on Wan Hai Demon Monarch.

Yet, in his speech, there remains veiled discontent towards True Master Profound Ice’s defiance of rules, his audacious actions, attracting formidable foes.

In the Nascent Soul Realm, combat prowess is hard to discern.

The amount of Magical Power is no longer the key.

More depends on the cultivator’s wielded Divine Power and employed Spiritual Treasure.

And also the cultivation technique’s attribute interactions.

Wan Hai Demon Monarch does not directly seek True Master Profound Ice, instead presents an accountability letter to Cyan Cloud Sect.
