"Jun Wuji, are you kidding me?"

The blood-red figure sneered, feeling that Jun Wuji was just putting on airs. He had been tasked by the Blood Demon Lord to recruit Jun Wuji, intending to use him to sway Jun Dongjin, a former high-ranking member of the Daoist Immortal Sect.

Jun Dongjin had been abandoned by the Daoist Immortal Sect, undoubtedly harboring resentment. As long as the Blood Demon Sea paid a high enough price, the chances of success were high.

To ensure Jun Dongjin's complete defection, there could be no coercion involved in recruiting Jun Wuji. Otherwise, if Jun Dongjin saw how the Blood Demon Sea treated his son, how could he remain loyal?

So, coercion was out of the question. Only promises of great rewards or semi-coercive tactics could be employed.

Before infiltrating the Central Divine Continent, the blood-red figure had carefully reviewed all information related to Jun Wuji. And it was during this process that he stumbled upon a secret.

A secret related to Jun Wuji.

"I genuinely want to know what big secret you're referring to," Lin Yuan said earnestly. With so many secrets to his name, he couldn't immediately pinpoint which one the blood-red figure was referring to.

Was it from a hundred or two hundred years ago, when he effortlessly annihilated several Divine Transformation cultivators and dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators of the Daoist Immortal Sect?

Or was it when he became a rare Body Cultivator in the Central Divine Continent for hundreds of thousands of years and crushed the Crown Prince of the Demon Saint Nest, who dared challenge even the Ancient Saints?

Or perhaps it was when he fought against the Daoist Immortal Sect's Sect Master, Mu Qingliu, in the Nine Heavens and escaped unscathed?

Additionally, there was also the matter of the Eastern Sea's Island Master, who was not publicly known to be a half-step Ancient Saint.

"Hmph," the blood-red figure huffed, expecting to see Jun Wuji's shock and panic upon revealing his secret. He even anticipated the possibility of Jun Wuji resorting to murder to keep it quiet. All of these reactions were within the blood-red figure's calculations.

But he was disappointed. He didn't see any change in Jun Wuji's expression.

How could this be?

The blood-red figure's thoughts were in disarray.

"Are there any other secrets?" Lin Yuan asked patiently.

"Isn't this secret enough?" the blood-red figure raised his voice, feeling uneasy about Jun Wuji's lack of reaction. Concealing his Divine Trasnformation-stage cultivation level, once exposed, would undoubtedly attract Mu Mengting's attention.

What would happen then, no one could predict.

The blood-red figure's original plan was to manipulate Jun Wuji with this secret.

"Jun Wuji, as long as you're willing to work for us, Mu Mengting won't be able to touch you. And my master will grant you a lifespan far beyond those of ordinary cultivators," the blood-red figure said, sensing that the situation was not going as planned and immediately changing tactics.

Recruiting Jun Wuji couldn't rely solely on threats. Promising great rewards was also necessary. And in this case, the reward was extended lifespan.

It was well-known that the lifespan of Body Cultivators was far inferior to that of cultivators.

But the Blood Demon Lord could transform Jun Wuji into a "Blood Godson," bound to the Blood Demon Sea, with an incredibly long lifespan. And the life and death of a Blood Godson were solely at the whim of the Blood Demon Lord.

Jun Wuji becoming a Blood Godson would mean complete integration into the Blood Demon Sea, making betrayal impossible.

"I must have been mistaken," Lin Yuan shook his head slightly. The blood-red figure came from the Blood Demon Sea, which Lin Yuan had long since detected. Initially, he thought the figure knew something significant, but now it seemed he had overestimated them.

Even the nearby Daoist Immortal Sect hadn't detected his true identity.

The Blood Demon Sea, located far to the north of the Divine Continent, couldn't do much.

"Let me see what the Blood Demon Lord is up to," Lin Yuan said, turning his gaze to the blood-red figure. He had engaged in this conversation primarily out of concern that the figure might have uncovered something. Now that he was sure they knew nothing, he was ready to act.

Upon hearing this, the blood-red figure felt a sense of confusion in his mind.

But in the next moment, he felt his consciousness rapidly plummeting.

Boom.

Bursts of blood-red light exploded all over him.

Clearly, these were survival techniques employed by the blood-red figure.

Daring to infiltrate the Central Divine Continent, infiltrating the Cloud Mist Blessed Land.

How could the blood-red figure not have any trump cards?

However, all of his trump cards, all of his survival techniques, even the blood-red crystal bestowed by the Blood Demon Lord, quickly collapsed.

"You?"

As the consciousness of the blood-red figure completely sank, he looked at Lin Yuan with endless horror.

Wrong.

He was wrong.

The Blood Demon Lord was also wrong.

Everyone was wrong.

Jun Wuji, who they saw as mere cannon fodder, was not as simple as he appeared on the surface.

Even the blood-red crystal bestowed by the Blood Demon Lord couldn't withstand a momentary strike.

He, Jun Wuji, at the very least, he was on the level of an Ancient Saint.

After a few breaths, Lin Yuan finished browsing through the memories of the blood-red figure.

"So, the plan was to start a war in the Central Divine Continent," Lin Yuan roughly understood the Blood Demon Lord's scheme.

"Blood Demon Sea, Demon Saint Nest, Ghost Palace, why do these ancient Void Refinement Stage Cultivators repeatedly want to launch a great war in the cultivation world?"

Lin Yuan pondered.

The Daoist Immortal Sect, reigning over the Central Divine Continent with the Taihao Mirror suppressing it, couldn't be fundamentally harmed by any kind of war.

Blood Demon Sea.

On a small island deep within, the Blood Demon Lord suddenly opened his eyes.

"Dead?"

"Dead so quickly?"

The Blood Demon Lord found it hard to believe.

With the backup he had on the blood-red figure, even if he was discovered by the Daoist Immortal Sect, he could have held out for a while.

In this way, Mu Qingliu can also let go and re-establish the prestige of the Daoist Immortal Sect over all living beings.

"Which faction does the Sect Master plan to target first?"

Mu Mengting asked in a low voice.

"Which faction?"

Mu Qingliu pondered for a moment, "Let's start with the Eastern Sea."

In the past hundred years, the development of the White Jade Pavilion in the Eastern Sea has been extremely rapid, and it has almost unified the Eastern Sea islands.

Moreover, the island lord of the White Jade Island, Yuan Yang, is only a half-step Ancient Saint. Over the years, even if the other party has made breakthroughs, they cannot enter the Void Refinement Stage.

In that case, with Mu Qingliu's own strength plus the Taihao Mirror, he can completely kill the other party.

On the contrary.

If Mu Qingliu were to first make a move against the Ghost Palace, the Demon Saint Nest, or the Blood Demon Sea, then the island lord of the White Jade Island would probably be scared into hiding once he found out.

Anyway, the Daoist Immortal Sect has been old rivals with the Ghost Palace, the Demon Saint Nest, and the Blood Demon Sea.

The latter three have special trump cards, so even if Mu Qingliu holds the Taihao Mirror, he can only suppress them, not kill them.

So making a move against the Eastern Sea is the most in line with Mu Qingliu's expectations.

"The Eastern Sea."

"That island lord of the White Jade Island deserves to die."

Mu Mengting nodded.

Back then, the island lord of the White Jade Island destroyed the Black Veil Islands that he had operated for many years, and he still remembered this grudge.

"The sect is entrusted to you."

After saying this, Mu Qingliu's figure disappeared in the distance.

Eastern Sea.

White Jade Island.

Hundreds of thousands of White Jade Pavilion disciples gathered on the island.

In addition, there were a large number of mortals gathering on the White Jade Island. Although the White Jade Island was called an 'island,' it was nearly two million miles in size, equivalent to several Canglan Stars.

If it weren't for the vastness of the Central Divine Continent, the White Jade Island should be called the White Jade Continent.

In the core area of ​​the White Jade Island.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.

Dozens of disciples below were asking questions about cultivation, and Lin Yuan casually answered them.

A hundred years have passed, and the White Jade Pavilion's heritage has greatly increased. There are over one hundred thousand first-level cultivators of martial arts, over ten thousand second-level cultivators, over two thousand third-level cultivators, and three hundred and twenty-two fourth-level cultivators.

Eight fifth-level cultivators.

It can be said.

In today's Eastern Sea islands, the White Jade Pavilion is undoubtedly the first. As long as Lin Yuan is willing, unifying the Eastern Sea islands is easy.

"Hmm?"

Lin Yuan seemed to sense something.

He looked up at the sky.

On the White Jade Island.

Countless disciples either gathered together or walked alone, studying and practicing martial arts techniques.

Suddenly—

In the nine heavens.

A mirror emitting terrifying immortal light floated.

The mirror turned slightly, and a terrifying light descended from the nine heavens.

The terror of the mirror light even caused the space to faintly freeze, and wherever it passed, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth turned into nothingness.

It can be foreseen.

Once this mirror light falls, it will pierce through the entire White Jade Island, and this sacred place of cultivation will be completely destroyed.

The aftermath of the mirror light will cause all living beings below the Ancient Saint level to perish.

"What is that?"

"We must leave quickly."

"We can't leave. We will all die."

Countless White Jade Pavilion disciples looked up at the sky, filled with despair.

Under the terrifying mirror light, everyone's only thought was death.

No matter how they ran.

It was death.

Just at this moment.

A figure appeared in the sky above the White Jade Island.

Immediately, the heavens and the earth changed, and the figure, tens of thousands of zhang tall, radiated a powerful sun power like a second sun.

Just seeing this towering figure, with a wave of his hand, he held the White Jade Island, which was as big as several Canglan Stars, in his palm.
