Taibai Realm.
The stars are bright, the sea is endless, the octagonal tower stands alone in the sea, listening quietly to the ebb and flow of the tide.
Seven Mahayana immortals appeared on the roof of the observatory one after another and nodded to each other.
One reason for this gathering is the Qingyun Association. In all previous Qingyun Associations, these Mahayana immortals who have been living in seclusion have to gather together once. To put it bluntly, the purpose is to see if anyone has died and to ensure that the number of Mahayana immortals in the human race can be replenished in time.
Those who cannot come must notify others if they can prove their identity.
After all, such a situation had happened once before, where a certain Mahayana master passed away quietly, and everyone around him thought he was in seclusion. It was not until almost five hundred years later that he was discovered.
We were lucky that time, as no new Mahayana monks appeared from the demon clan and the monster clan, so the human race was able to support a combined cultivator to rush up in time.
Coincidentally, the one who was hastily selected and hurriedly entered the Mahayana stage back then was Cang Qingzi from the Qinglong Realm who is about to ascend to heaven today.
This time, she also summoned all the Mahayana monks to gather together, saying that there were important matters to discuss, and asked everyone to come here in person.
The other cultivators in the Fusion Stage and the Void Refining Stage were also summoned by Cang Qingzi, and were now sitting quietly in the Observatory Tower waiting.
Cang Qingzi glanced at everyone present. The Immortal Lord Chongming of the Jiuhe Realm was still as calm as water. He rarely participated in the disputes in the upper realm. Even for the Tianshi Star Alliance, which he guarded, he always let it develop and did not support any sect.
But this time, Cang Qingzi heard a few words from the cultivators below. It seemed that Immortal Lord Chongming had broken his rules and supported the Tianyan Sect of the Earth Spirit Realm to take root in the Jiuhe Realm.
Tianyan Sect, Lu Xingyun, these few words, even those who have not experienced the disaster of Tianqing and the subsequent events, will feel palpitations every time they hear them.
However, Cang Qingzi was not going to ask about this matter. She believed that Chong Ming must have his reasons for doing so.
It just happened to be this moment, maybe it was God’s will!
Cang Qingzi suppressed his messy thoughts and looked at Yanhua, who had red hair and was full of anger, and glanced at Chongming from time to time.
Old man Zang Liu hunched over with his hands in his pockets, sitting cross-legged on the back of the Black Tortoise Divine Turtle. Both the turtle and the man were dozing off.
The Immortal Lord Bodu from the White Tiger Realm was born rough and heroic, with a naturally fierce appearance. He was holding a soft white cat with tiger stripes in his arms.
Sitting in the Arctic, the lonely and cold Fairy Yuxiao is playing with the flute in her hand with her eyes lowered.
There is also the Wu family in the Five Emperors Realm, and the Immortal Lady Wu Wei, who is revered as the Valkyrie of the time by the people below. She is clad in black battle armor, carries a large shield on her back, holds a long-handled axe in her hand, has an iron whip hanging from her waist, and is covered with weapons everywhere on her body.
Every time Cang Qingzi saw Wu Wei, he wanted to ask her if she was serious.
"The old man is back!"
The Immortal Lord Fatian returned from the sky, nodded to Cang Qingzi, and turned around to look around.
"Hmm? Hasn't Fu Zhang arrived yet?"
There are nine immortal kings, eight of whom are present, the only missing one being the rarely seen Immortal King Fu Zhang.
He has no territory to guard, no fixed cave dwelling, and is always elusive. He never asks about or interferes in the affairs of the Immortal Alliance.
Cang Qingzi raised his eyes and suddenly looked at a pillar on the edge of the rooftop platform of the observatory.
Everyone turned their heads to follow Cang Qingzi's gaze, and saw a man in black clothes, black hair, and pale skin sitting on top of a pillar. He had a smile on his lips and cold eyes, like a vicious snake, secretly observing everyone.
The immortal kings were shocked. Except for Cang Qingzi, they had not noticed that Fu Zhang was on it.
Among the nine immortal kings, Cang Qingzi has the highest cultivation level, followed by the oldest Zang Liu and Fu Zhang, who are the Eight Tribulations Immortal Kings.
But Zang Liu was dozing off, so I don’t know if he noticed.
Cang Qingzi retracted his gaze, "Okay, now that everyone is here, let me tell you the purpose of gathering here. Because I have been attacking the ninth heavenly tribulation, I am not very clear about the counterattack plan you have formulated. Now that I am about to ascend to heaven, I am afraid I can't help much. You can discuss this matter."
Chongming agreed with this, especially Lu Nanzhi and Jiang Yuebai. After all, they have been together for thirty years, and even if they are not happy, they have some feelings for each other. Judging from their current performance, there is a high possibility that they will make it into the top three.
When he is sent to the demon clan, Chongming will find it hard to feel at ease.
Everyone looked at each other, and finally Yan Hua released the arm he had been holding and explained, "It's not forced. Let them choose for themselves when the time comes. As long as it succeeds, they will be heroes of the human race. As long as we are in the upper realm, we will protect them on their journey."
The promise given by the Mahayana Immortal Lord is enough to make all cultivators take risks, but what the specific situation will be depends on what choices they will make after the top three in the Nascent Soul stage appear.
The reason for choosing the Nascent Soul stage is that only after the demons reach the Nascent Soul stage will they have enough status and power in the tribe to do more things.
As one moves up in the Spiritual Transformation stage, his cultivation level is too high, which easily draws attention and increases the risk of being exposed.
Bodu Xianjun, who was holding a white cat with tiger stripes, said in a rough voice, "From this Qingyun meeting, it can be seen that our human race has a sign of prosperity. In the second trial, there is a person who can be of great use."
Wu Wei Xianjun, who was covered in weapons, glanced in the direction of Qingyun Realm, "Are you talking about Shen Huaixi, the man who has made all the plans of Tianyan Sect? He is indeed good, but there seems to be some problems with his identity."
In the eyes of the Mahayana Immortal Lord, Shen Huaixi's alien bloodline could not be hidden at all.
Chong Ming said, "The Tianwu Clan has basically been on the road to extinction since 100,000 years ago. Now the Tianwu Clan members left in the upper realm are no different from humans. Why can't we be more tolerant? Shen Huaixi never made any mistakes during the entire trial. Even when dealing with the man from the Zhenwu Immortal Sect, he used fake poison to intimidate him."
"In the war between humans and demons, we cannot personally go to the battlefield. We must rely on the cultivators below to fight. Since the loss of the Heavenly Spear Realm, the demons have been pressing forward step by step, while our human race has been losing ground. From the battles in the past few decades, it can be seen that the demons clearly have people who are proficient in military tactics. Our human race should also cultivate more such talents."
"I agree. Junior Brother Chongming is right."
A sinister voice suddenly came from above my head, and it was Fu Zhang who spoke.
Everyone was quite surprised by this, as he never asked about anything.
After expressing their opinions, most people agreed to meet Shen Huaixi after the Qingyun meeting, and test other people who could serve as reserve advisers before deciding whether to send them to the battlefield.
Of course, this is also on a voluntary basis, and they will give enough rewards. If you are really unwilling, they will not force you.
After discussing several other people, several immortal kings had their key candidates in mind and were waiting to see how they would perform in the competition.
Whether they are leading the human race to war or carrying out infiltration missions, these people must achieve the utmost in all aspects.
The reason why the power of the True Demon in the previous trial was weakened was also to boost their courage and let them know that the demons are not invincible.
Passing this trial in advance will also allow these fledgling monks to be prepared for the war.
This time, the nine star alliances will defeat the demons in one fell swoop, completely seal off the Demon Abyss, and restore peace and prosperity to the upper realm.
Cang Qingzi listened to their discussion quietly and was full of expectations for the future of the upper realm, but Cang Qingzi's expression became increasingly gloomy.
Cang Qingzi didn't speak again until everyone finished discussing and calmed down.
"The second reason I came here is to select a successor. I know you chose Nan Gu from the Azure Dragon Realm, but I have other candidates. I hope to give them a fair chance to compete."
"We'll discuss this later. Next, what I'm going to tell you is very important. With my current abilities, I can only tell you once."
Hearing this, everyone's faces became serious and they all looked at Cang Qingzi.
Cang Qingzi took a deep breath, opened and closed his lips, and uttered a word silently. No sound was made, but it was like thunder exploding in everyone's heart.
Is the disaster of heaven going to come back again
