Seeing that there was still no response. Zhang Taibai’s expression and voice turned cold, “Dear friends of the demonic way, do you really want me to take action?”

“Haha, Taibai Sword Immortal, your reputation is well deserved, but this benevolence and righteousness are quite fake, which broadened my horizons.”

A burst of horrible and strange laughter was heard, and a ghostly black fog emerged, from which a group of strangely dressed cultivators ascended into the sky, who then confronted the disciples of the Big Three.

“Red-eyed Ghost!”

Zhang Taibai’s expression was still cold, this person was one of the masters of Ghost Valley, who also entered the late stage of Core Formation.

In addition to him, there was Hundred Poison Boy, Blood Demon Ancestor, and some other Core Formation Stage experts of the Demonic Dao. Roughly speaking, there were about five or six people.

Not only Taibai Sword Immortal, but the expressions of the other disciples of the Big Three were also not good. Originally in You Prefecture, the Righteous Path was the dominant one. In the Righteous Path, they were led by the three factions. Naturally, they get wind when they want it, and obtain rain if they desire it. And things mostly would go their way.

For thousands of years, the demonic cultivators have been suppressed.

They did not put Heavenly Devil City in their eyes either. However, as the saying went, to pass its zenith and be on the wane. The righteous way is one the decline. In contrast to the Demonic Path, which was now quite reckless and daring and a lot of geniuses were emerging.

For example, the Extreme Demon Venerable, even so, Demonic Cultivation was far more difficult than the orthodox one, but he succeeded and reshaped the second-rate sect Extreme Demon Cave into an existence second only to the Big Three.

The other two forces of the Demonic Dao, Ghost Valley, and Yin Spirit Cult were also quite amazing. They have no old monsters of the Nascent Soul Stage, but with quite a lot of Core Formation Stage masters, their strength was still incredible.

Of course, the accumulation of the Righteous Path for thousands of years was not trivial, but the Demonic Dao has risen rapidly. Nowadays, the three demon sects, led by the Extreme Demon Cave, were faintly competing with the three giants of the Righteous path.

So it was natural that both sides wouldn’t find each other pleasant to look at.

Fortunately, with the current events, both parties have restrained themselves. The masters of the Core Formation Stage did not cross fists, but only verbally insulted each other.

The Red Eyed Ghost squinted his eyes and laughed uncontrollably, and said with a smile, “I never thought that Taibai Sword Immortal had heard of my name. Your fake righteousness just now was really wonderful.”

Ouyang Qin frowned slightly but didn’t respond. Watching with cold eyes, Master Feng Lei of Yixian Valley couldn’t help but refute, “We just don’t want any blood to be spilled, how is Brother Taibai being fake?”

“Humph,” A childish voice was heard, and it came from a three feet tall child. The boy was delicate and cute, but the people on the other side stayed quite a distance away from him. Hundred Poison Boy of Yin Spirit Cult, hearing this nickname, anyone would know that he was famous for his strange poisons. If one didn’t want to die, then it was better to stay away.

“You guys of the Righteous Path, always full of morality and benevolence, but deep inside, you’re just thieves, don’t think we don’t know, you just hid here like us. But deliberately left, took a big turn, and came back, pretending to be persuasive with false sense, isn’t there a conspiracy?”

“What conspiracy?” Taibai Sword Immortal’s expression changed.

“Humph. Do we really have to expose it?” The Hundred Poison Boy laughed weirdly, “It’s very simple. Will those cultivators just now die or live? Will your three factions really put them in your eyes? Even if they all fought among themselves and died, you’d be secretly happy, but you’ve persuaded them to stop, just to use them as free labor.”

“So, where do we start?”

“Come one, what’s the point of pretending at this time?” The Red Eyed Ghost took over, “What happened to the Demon Lord that day was too sudden. Whether it was your Big Three or our Demon Dao three factions, they were all caught off guard. 

The manpower transferred here is quite limited, and the Kuiyin Mountain Range is too big. Even if it is determined that the Soul of the Demon Lord has fled to this area, it may be difficult to search the entire area. Just as Taibai Sword Immortal had said, if he escapes into an unexplored area, things will become very troublesome.”

“So you thought of using the other cultivators as free labor. On the surface, you advised them not to kill each other. But your real purpose is actually to let these cultivators help you find the whereabouts of the Demon Lord .”

“Yeah, Brother Taibai’s plan is really good, crossing the river and burning the bridge. Even if the cultivators found the whereabouts of the Sky Fiend Demon Lord, it would be just sending themselves to their deaths. With their strength, do they really want to take away the Heavenly Dust Pill? I am afraid that your Big Three will kill them and take the goods.”

Listening to the cynicism of several old monsters of the Demonic Dao, Taibai Sword Immortal’s face suddenly turned blue and pale, but soon, he calmed down, and sneered, “Even if I have such a plan, what about it? Isn’t it the same for the three demon sects?”

“It’s just as Brother Taibai has said, the Cultivation World is where the strong prey on the weak. Those with powerful treasures and great strength will have the ability to snatch the Heavenly Dust Pill.”

The one who spoke was a woman with a cold face, she was about 40 years old, and was one of the two cultivators from Thunder Cloud Mountain.

“Oh, Mrs. Cheng spoke. Does your husband share the same view?”

“Oh, of course, my wife’s intention also represents mine,” The person who spoke looked quite plain, but his cultivation has already reached the middle stage of Core Formation.

Several old monsters of the Demon Path looked at each other. They originally wanted to ridicule these cultivators. But they didn’t expect them to tear off their false masks when they were angry. This made them feel speechless and they sneered, “If that’s the case, then everyone will rely on their own ability, farewell!”

After speaking, he turned into a beam of light and flew towards the sky.

“Hey, if there’s a chance, I’d like to experience the skills of you couple.”

The Red Eyed Ghost smiled at the Core Formation Stage couple of Thunder Cloud Mountain with good intentions. And his figure released some black mist, after the black mist dispersed, he disappeared without a trace.

The Blood Demon Ancestor did not say anything, but this person’s cold eyes made everyone feel goosebumps, as the only Demon Dao Nascent Soul Cultivator and Extreme Demon Venerable’s most trusted confidante, this person’s cultivation was the most elusive.

Of course, in addition to them, among the people who came from the Demonic Factions, there were two other masters of the Core Formation Stage, and they also disappeared without a word.
