Chapter 286: Chapter 171: Violent Uprising! The Grand Curtain Rises! Chapter 286: Chapter 171: Violent Uprising! The Grand Curtain Rises! Several days later.

The Beast Tide had gradually receded.

Across the sky, a streak of rosy light pierced through the clouds, scattering over the vast ocean, dispelling the surrounding dust and smoke.

The entire sea area was littered with severed limbs and torso pieces, the blood staining hundreds of miles, an utterly gruesome scene.

A group of Human Clan Cultivators stood quietly in an open area on the Island of Tranquil Jade.

The atmosphere was extremely heavy.

Cultivators from both the righteousness and devilish camps kept their distance, their eyes flickering with wariness.

Now that the Human Clan had won a complete victory, no external forces were influencing either side.

Everyone understood that if not for the Beast Tide, the battle between righteousness and devilish ways would have probably erupted long ago.

A group of Demon Cultivators could barely contain themselves, eager to act.

Righteous Cultivators had always known how to thrive; the sea territories were much wealthier than the Demon Sects.

They had long wanted to plunder thoroughly.

Cultivating Spiritual Objects was hard work, but stealing them directly was so much more convenient.

For thousands of years, they had grown accustomed to this approach.

Lu Li stood quietly at the edge of the coast, waiting for Liu Luoxin’s return.

Surrounded by a group of women from the Flowers Sect, smiles bloomed on their faces, as everyone had reaped significant rewards from this ordeal.

With the corpses of those Demon Beasts and contribution points, their cultivation could advance even further.

Yin Qian leaned tightly against Lu Li, her beautiful eyes shining, full of admiration.

She was thrilled by her husband’s recent display of formidable prowess, having slain a vast number of Purple Mansion Demon Beasts.

Not far away, a group of Purple Mansion Demon Cultivators were tense all over, looking at Lu Li with faces full of apprehension.

Having seen Lu Li’s rampage across the battlefield days ago, slaughtering numerous Purple Mansion Demon Beasts, many Demon Cultivators were chilled to the bone.

They feared they would not be able to withstand even a single move from him.

The Demon Cultivators began to congregate around a few top-ranked Purple Mansion individuals, with Du Fan from the Four Great Demon Sects at the forefront, facing off against the righteous Cultivators.

A group of righteous Cultivators slowly gathered around the Flowers Sect, coming to stand by Lu Li’s side.

Led by Wang Lishu and the top-ranked Purple Mansion Venerables from the other Three Great Sects,
the four of them slowly moved behind Lu Li, their gazes fixed intently on the multitude of Demon Cultivators.

Clearly, the many righteous Cultivators had tacitly acknowledged Lu Li as the leader of the countless Purple Mansion Cultivators from the external sea regions.

Moments ago, they were comrades-in-arms, but now the air was filled with tension, as if a great battle could erupt at any time.

At that moment, in the distance across the sky, around a dozen tunneling lights were rapidly flying toward the Island of Tranquil Jade.

They arrived at a plain on the edge of the island in an instant.

It was the Golden Core Venerables from both the righteousness and devilish paths.

Liu Luoxin walked over to Lu Li, her expression somewhat solemn.

“Did something change in the pursuit of those Demon Kings?”

Seeing his Daoist couple’s unusual expression, Lu Li couldn’t help but ask.

Liu Luoxin offered a faint smile, “During the pursuit of the Golden Core Demon Clan, we achieved a complete victory, slaying eight of their Great Demons, and the others were all injured.”

“For the next few hundred years, they won’t be able to invade.”

“Then why…”

Lu Li was puzzled.

“Hmph… Those Demon Cultivators tried to ambush us on their return. The situation may change soon, be careful.”

A cold light flashed in Liu Luoxin’s eyes.

The other Golden Core Venerables also surrounded the four Venerables, Xue Jingshi among them.

One was Sage Qing Song, and another was Floating Cloud Venerable from the medium-sized sect Hua Yun Sect.

This person wore a white robe, with a calm and collected aura, a mid-stage Golden Core Cultivator.

All six of the righteousness’s Golden Core Venerables gathered together.

Opposite them, the Demon Sect’s group of Golden Core Venerables did the same, with Heavenly Demon Sect’s Hun Shang and Blood Demon Sect’s Xiao Yong leading.

As for the other Golden Core Venerables, most were Loose Cultivators and strong figures from the Business Association, who had already left the place, returning to their respective islands.

At this time, both sides were on a knife-edge, the atmosphere oppressively tense.

“Kill!”

Hun Shang wasted no words, immediately making a move with full force.

He brought out a Blood Flying Knife, and as he activated his Mana, endless blood light enveloped the knife, surging killing intent rose, slashing viciously towards Liu Luoxin.

Even the air carried the explosion of his might, alarmingly powerful.

As the Demon Sect Venerable made his move, war erupted in an instant.

“Slash…”

Liu Luoxin immediately brought out a golden Flying Sword, its Sword Qi tearing the sky asunder, fiercely slashing towards the approaching Blood Flying Knife.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

The impact resonated through the heavens, Gang Qi sprayed wildly, the ground scored with deep cracks, as dust whirled in the air, the scene a total mess.

In the void, their Magical Artifacts each recoiled from the clash, this exchange ended in a stalemate.

The other Golden Core Venerables also brought out their own Magical Artifacts to meet their counterparts.

The numbers were evenly matched, and for a short time, it was hard to tell who had the upper hand.

The battlefield was immediately engulfed in a maelstrom of Gang Winds and whistling Sword Qi, an air of palpable slaughter pervaded the area.

The surrounding Purple Mansion and Foundation Establishment Cultivators all wore shocked expressions, quickly scattering to avoid the Golden Core battleground.

They moved to an open area in the northwest of the island.

There, Venerables from both sides fixed deadly stares at each other.

“Kill!”

Without any further words, they all brought out their Magical Artifacts and charged at each other.

All manner of Magical Artifacts and Spiritual Artifacts glittered and danced in the void, engulfing the entire battlefield, their turbulent auras scattering the high clouds.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

Endless Gang Winds from the collisions swept in all directions, dust and smoke billowed through the air.

The ground suddenly bore numerous Sword Wounds as if it had been plowed, a complete mess.

Lu Li also brought out his Five Elements Rings, energized by Divine Power, radiating with five-colored brilliance, wielding an overwhelming force as he smashed directly towards Du Fan.

He didn’t immediately engage his Divine Skills to charge forward; with such a large number of opponents, if they focused their attacks on him, he might just capsize in the gutter.

He wouldn’t be so brash to flaunt his strength carelessly.
