Chapter 406: Two-pronged Approach

You bastard, you deliberately lured me out and secretly sent people to my cave. What are your intentions!"Next, two cultivators carrying the bound Qian Kong appeared beside the elder and said, "Master...This sentence, finally, allowed Huo Duming to get his life back.

As soon as his voice fell, at least a hundred fire crows in front of him suddenly stopped their advance and stared coldly at him.

Although he was a fire demon, Huo Duming felt a chill run down his spine when he saw the over a hundred Fire Crows in front of him.

If one were to be pierced by these hundreds of firebirds, there would be no doubt that they would die.

And, moreover, oneself should absolutely be the first innate fire demon to be burned alive throughout history!

Jiang Yun's figure immediately appeared in front of Huo Duming, his eyes radiating a menacing light as he stared fixedly at Huo Duming and said, "What did you just mean"

The flames conjured by Huo Du Ming leaped violently up and down, revealing the turmoil in his heart. "Unless you guarantee that you won't kill me," he said tensely, "I won't tell you anything!"

"You have no right to bargain with me!"

Jiang Yun waved his hand, and the over a hundred Fire Crows flapped their wings together, forming a scorching storm. Huo Dumeng immediately cried out in fear, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"

My father has already united with the Moriro Ghost Realm and the Sea Clan. The three parties have reached a consensus and decided to launch an attack on Nanshan Prefecture after the mirage opens!

After finishing his words, Huo Dumeng closed his mouth. His flame body constantly jumped up and down, looking at Jiang Yun in front of him, his heart was extremely uneasy.

To be honest, he didn't know if what he was saying now would save his life. All he could do was wait for Jiang Yun's final decision.

Ginger Cloud remained silent, still appearing calm on the surface. But inside, a storm raged within him.

He naturally understood the meaning behind Huo Du Ming's words.

He had known about the alliance of the three major factions since his time in Yaoshengzong.

Even he personally took action, securing the first victory for Yaoshén Sect.

Although he doesn't know the final result of the battle between Yaoshenzong and the Sea Clan yet, since Yaoshenzong sent people into the Mirage Tower, it should have won.

But he never expected that after their failure to invade Zhongshan Prefecture, these three major forces would set their sights on Nanshan Prefecture.

There are two major factions within Nanshan Prefecture: the Wendao Sect and the Hundred Thousand Mangshan!

And these two major forces, one is their own sect, the other is their own family!

Of the five great sects, in Jiang Yun's opinion, the Dao Seeking Sect should be the weakest overall.

As for the Hundred Thousand Mang Mountains, he had lived there for sixteen years and seen some demon clans, but he had never seen what was called a strong person.

The situation in the world of Shan Hai is unlike this one. Each sect only has a few hundred disciples entering.

In the realm of mountains and seas, the three major forces, especially the Sea Clan, are undoubtedly the hegemons.

If the three major forces really joined hands to attack Nanshan Prefecture, then neither the Wudao Sect nor the 100,000 Mangshan would be a match for them, even if they both teamed up.

Moreover, the Wudao Sect is a human sect and extremely prejudiced against the demon race. This was something Jiang Yun knew when he first arrived at the Wudao Sect. Then how could the Wudao Sect possibly ally with the 100,000 savage mountain demons

Thinking of this, Jiang Yun looked coldly at Huo Duming and said, “When are they leaving!”

"No, I don't know, but it should be recently. Maybe it has already set off, after all, the Mirage opening only lasts for ten years at most."

Huodumíng stuttered, "Well, what my father and the others meant was to attack on two fronts."

On one hand, within the Mirage Palace, the Tripartite Alliance will eliminate all of you, eradicating every last one.

On the other side, within the realm of mountains and seas, they first destroyed Nanshan Prefecture, then Zhongshan Prefecture, and finally Xishan Prefecture!

These words caused another surge of coldness in Jiang Yun's eyes.

It has to be said, the three major forces have played their cards well.

Two-pronged approach!

Within this realm, it can be said that it gathers all the most promising disciples from every sect. Killing these people would be tantamount to severing the future of each sect.

Within the realm of Shan Hai, first target the weakest Nan Shan Prefecture and then gradually annex the other two major sects.

Even if they survived, returning to the Shanhai Realm meant losing the protection of their sect. Even if they wanted revenge, they would be outmatched and powerless.

Either submit or die, there is no room for standing.

By then, the entire Shan Hai Realm would truly have been completely divided up by these three major forces.

The Hai Clan occupies the Boundless Sea, while the Ten Thousand Demon Cavern and the Senro Ghost Prison occupy the Five Mountains Island.

For the lives and deaths of other sects, even the Yaoshenzong, Jiang Yun could choose to ignore them. However, he absolutely couldn't ignore the Wenda Zong, nor the 100,000 Mangshan.

"The fire alone is your salvation. If anything happens to my family or sect when I return to the Shanhai Realm, you will know what it means to be worse than dead!"

Jiang Yun's palm struck out, causing the countless fire crows to instantly transform into flames, returning back into his body. The storage device on Huo Duoming's person also landed in his hand.

Of course, he also got what he wished for: an overcast sky.

The dark clouds covered the sky, and there was a small, palm-sized artifact that looked like cotton.

Although it had a solitary spark of divine consciousness blazing within, it was easily extinguished by Jiang Yun.

After understanding the effect of the overcast cloud, Ginger Cloud unceremoniously threw the solitary flame into it.

The dark clouds above, to be strict, are a flying artifact with storage capabilities, but it can hold not only dead things, but also living things.

After tucking the dark clouds away, a pair of flames flared up in Jiang Yun's eyes. Countless faces of vengeful spirits were reflected within the flames.

The fire puppetry allows him to see through the eyes of a spirit and perceive everything that the spirit sees.

At the site where Daozong people gathered, nearly all three hundred cultivators were dead. More than ten remained, struggling to stay alive, but it was futile.

The escaping merfolk man didn't need to move a finger. He was already surrounded by over thirty wraiths, badly injured and would die completely soon.

There is still one ghost left!

But in his gaze, there was no trace of the ghostly figure.

Even the thirty or so specters he had sent to hunt down Ghostly Terror were all dead.

Obviously, Gui Li, as a true ghost clan member, could easily deal with Yin spirits by relying on his ghostly aura, thus escaping pursuit.

A cold light flashed in Jiang Yun's eyes, and he chased after the direction where Ghostly Might had disappeared.

He had already made up his mind to kill Hu Duming and his two companions. Now that he learned about the three forces backing them planning to attack Nanshan Prefecture together, there was no way he would let them live to leave.

But Ghostly's presence was as if it had evaporated from the human world. No matter how hard Ginger Cloud searched, there was not a trace to be found.

It was not hard to guess that he either transformed into ghostly qi and dispersed, or hid within the body of some other spirit. Ginger Yun could only helplessly give up.

Back on the battlefield, the cultivators from the three major factions were already dead. Those from the smaller factions had long since fled.

Now only fifty-nine disciples of the Wen Dao Sect remain, still holding their formation.

One by one, they stood there like in a dream, their faces etched with terror, staring blankly at the bodies scattered around them and the countless motionless ghosts.

Not until Jiang Yun appeared before them did they come to their senses.

Tang Yi and Lu Yourong were the least shocked of all, after all, they had witnessed a similar scene before, so they were the first to speak.

"Senior Brother Jiang…"

However, before the two could finish their words, Jiang Yun, without a word, raised his hand to interrupt them, and at the same time reached out to remove the Curse of Death.

Then, with a wave of his hand, he retracted all the souls' life fires back into the Wuyan Puppet Lamp.

Without control of their life force, these spirits immediately reverted back to their original state.

No longer under control of Ginger Cloud, nor remaining stationary, they all simultaneously turned their figures and charged towards the bewildered members of the Wenda Sect.
