Previously, the five who chose to stand on the east side and advocated continuing to help Shi Feiyang deal with Jiang Xuejun were elderly and steady people like Lei Que and Xu Xiang'e, but their natural talent and comprehension were far inferior to those of Jin Chan and the others.

Xu Xiang'e was somewhat better, having achieved the rank of Earth Immortal, but Lei Que hadn't even reached that, so how could he withstand Jiang Xuejun's full-force attack!

Jiang Xuejun was indeed committed to lethal measures, as both the Divine Maiden Shuttle and the Heavenly Dragon Scissors were the Mountain Treasures refined by Yan Yingmu in her days.

The Divine Maiden Shuttle came flying, and with just one strike, shattered Lei Que's Flying Sword into pieces, while the Heavenly Dragon Scissors transformed into two Golden Dragons, head to head and tail to tail, descending from the heavens to cut Xu Xiang'e in half along with his sword!

Both men had limited mana and were locked on by two Great Mysterious Sect treasures, first needing to use Taiqing Escape Technique to flee, but the escape light was captured by the magical treasure's light energy, unable to ignite at all.

The nearby disciples released Flying Swords to fend off the attacks, but were ineffective, all shattering under the Divine Shuttle.

Seeing the two were about to perish on the spot, suddenly they heard two rather short musical notes near their ears.

"Clang clang," the sound interrupted the trajectory of the Divine Maiden Shuttle and Heavenly Dragon Scissors, causing them to pause slightly in mid-air.

With this brief respite, two azure-golden light beams followed from the sky, piercing through the black clouds above Jiang Xuejun, shining on the Divine Maiden Shuttle and Heavenly Dragon Scissors.

It was Shi Feiyang making his move, first using the Cave Spirit Zither to break the offensive of the two magical treasures, then using the light from the Heavenly Mirror to temporarily pin them down, followed by a long-distance transmission through the zither music to tell the people of Emei Sect: "This person has already merged with the Heavenly Lust Sect Leader, possessing unfathomable mana, beyond your ability to contend, retreat swiftly into the confines of the Great Wall..."

Before finishing his words, Jiang Xuejun roared angrily, raised his hand to cut off the two light beams, and resumed attacking Lei Que and others.

Though the zither music and the light beams appeared briefly, Lei Que and the others managed to set up escape light to pull back in distance.

"None of you will escape!" Jiang Xuejun spread his hands, releasing eighty-one Mystic Yin Demon-Gathering Banner posts, forming a Soul Refining Formation encompassing all the people of the Emei Sect, "I was thinking that these banners are too few; connecting your Primordial Spirit into Divine Demon, placing them on the banner, couldn't be more suitable!"

The disciples of Emei were originally feeling remorseful about attacking her, but now seeing her intending to soul-snatch and refine all of them, they were all shocked, even Ling Yunfeng, who originally stood firmly by her side and had many reproaches for Jin Chan's decisions, found it incredible: is this still the Madam Jiang who came to Emei Mountain with Aunt Yan back then?

Wasn't it said she had a deep hatred for evil? I have deep hatred for evil too, so how can two people with hatred for evil be in such mutual hatred?

At this moment, Chi You also started exerting force, revealing all the trump cards he had amassed over the years!

A large number of demon beasts set out from North Pole Long Night Island, including a Golden Wing Roc, with wings spread across three thousand miles, shaking the clouds violently, stirring up cyclones, a deep-sea Giant Kun, stretching ten thousand miles, swaying tail and fin, churning monstrous waves. There were also the Multi-headed Giant Sea Eel, Sea Snake, Horror Shark, Crocodile Whale, Ghost Flood Dragon, Hundred-Eyed Giant Whale, Tusked Giant Seagull, North Sea Blood Bird, Black Sea Ghost Ship...

There were also land-running beasts like the Mammoth Giant Elephant, Four-toothed Fierce Tiger, the White Giant Ape, Ice Bear, Snow Deer, Black Demon, Iron Mask Howler...

In ancient times, the ancestors fought wars driving fierce beasts, at that time the Central Plains region still had elephants, forming Elephant Soldiers, but mostly they used leopards, tigers, bears, khun (brown bears), and also using Iron-eating Beast, which is the Giant Panda, at that time the giant panda was still fierce and aggressive, mainly used by Chi You...

This time Chi You learned from experience, not using pandas anymore, but using all ferocious unmatched Big Demon Giant Beasts, counting both large and small, totaling in the tens of millions!

Beasts on land rode on the backs of giant birds flying in the sky and giant whales swimming in the sea, after reaching Central Earth Continent landed on the ground, heads southward, heading straight for the Great Wall.

The flying beasts and running beasts moved straight south to join forces with the tribes led by Jiang Xuejun, those swimming in the sea went around the edge of the land, forming a big circle, first reaching Bohai and Yellow Sea regions, then continued southward, reaching the South Sea, relentlessly attacking the land!

This time, whether in number or quality, it surpassed the previous time by hundredfold!

Chi You's Primordial Spirit seized Dongxuan Immortal's body for resurrection, Dongxuan Immortal had a strong Primordial Spirit but weak physique, after Chi You took her body, he devoured demon beasts heavily replenishing essence blood, transforming the body.

This ancient Demon King first inflated the old woman's body like air, bones growing, muscles bulging, quickly turning into a monster three zhang tall, full of muscle, physiologically changing from female to male, with horns growing on his head, iron skeleton and steel muscles, extremely strong, rejecting all kinds of Gu creatures planted inside by Dongxuan Immortal.

He also spent a lot of time forcefully devouring and merging Dongxuan Immortal's Divine Soul.

Chi You was originally the ancestor of the southern jungle's Gu masters, which means that the later generations who excelled at insect and venom magic also descended from Chi You, and their bloodlines perfectly matched!

He also used his own blood for casting spells, summoning the poisonous insects and evil Gu within the southern jungles.

Thanks to Shi Feiyang previously instructing the Qingcheng Sect to clear out the witchcraft masters in the southern jungles, along with help from numerous idle Sword Immortals, who searched every stronghold and hidden place, killing every witchcraft master they found. Those engaging in cultivation alone in the valleys received the same fate.

No matter how deep they hid, Jiang Shu would divine their whereabouts, find their nests, destroy altars and temples, not only killing the witchcraft masters but also destroying the Gu nests and burning all Gu eggs clean with Pure Yang Immortal Fire.

Although there were still some that slipped through the net, the numbers were already drastically reduced. Even though the entire Yun-Gui Plateau combined could have numbered in the hundreds of thousands, forming several large groups, they had become sparse.

In the southern jungles here, Bai Guanhong, Zhu Changyuan, and Shi Longgu had long received guidance from Shi Feiyang. With more than three hundred disciples from the Qingcheng Sect, along with Sword Immortals who had been cultivating here for years, coming to assist, even those who belonged to the Four Evils of Border Mountain subdued by Shi Feiyang long ago came out in force. Corpse ghosts moved alongside them; they were experts in playing with ghosts and Gu. Bai Guanhong assigned tasks, Zhu Changyuan commanded, and everyone together selected some mountain peaks, laid down Gu formations, attracted all sorts of evil Gu, killing or capturing them, ensuring they wouldn't fly out of the southern jungles.

At the same time, an overwhelming swarm of demon beasts rode the waves and wind from the South Sea.

Leading them was Yuan Tuo, the Marshal of the land, sea, and air forces of Yu Country at Outer Heaven Divine Mountain. Two other generals, Red Snake and Xuan Turtle, along with demon generals Long Meng, Wu Longzi, Beauty Python, and Shark, Flood Dragon, Eagle, Merman, Whale, Turtle from various races, totaling over a million, traversed nearly a million miles of distant sea region from Little Antarctic, traveling to Central Earth.

Since Shi Feiyang unified Outer Heaven Divine Mountain, he became the lord of all demons, established a nation, appointed officials for the elements of heaven, earth, water, and fire, and enacted laws and order. He organized the multitude of demons, which not only curbed much killing and fostered prosperity but also facilitated cooperative development, leading to the production and manufacture of vast amounts of resources and goods.

In recent years, the total biota of Outer Heaven Divine Mountain has explosively grown, with registered citizens of Yu Country exceeding thirty million, all sustaining more mouths to feed between the mountains and seas.

From a young age, the little demons could receive a quality education, learn to read and write, and extract spiritual energy from heaven and earth, practicing cultivation methods.

They tread a different path than Chi You.

Chi You pursued bloodthirsty and brutal transformation, where human limbs were not developed enough, they'd replace them with animal ones, where humans couldn't fly, they'd attach wings from flying beasts, and even let them devour inner cores to boost primordial qi, devouring and merging with divine soul fragments to reinforce primordial spirits…in the end, creating bizarre demon beasts.

Outer Heaven Divine Mountain, on the other hand, focuses on cultivation, from a young age understanding astronomy and geography, comprehending the changes of Yin Yang, knowing the Five Elements' generation and destruction, modeling behavior on heavenly phenomena, aligning with heaven to respond to humans, practicing various divine power techniques and refining flying sword magical treasures…

Chi You still uses his old methods, hoping brute force will work miracles. The reason for not defeating the Yellow Emperor back then, failing to create miracles, was essentially due to insufficient force, thus constantly piling on power.

Shi Feiyang instead employs the methods of the Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns, "Observing the way of heaven, carrying out the action of heaven," "Establishing Heaven's way to determine human affairs," "Determining human affairs by astronomy," gradually teaching and transforming hordes of primitive beast-like creatures, shedding their beastly nature in favor of humanity.

Chi You, for years, has employed the Great and Small Twelve Heavens Great Method, drawing evil spirits from the Heavenly World, collaborating with the yin evil of North Pole Long Night Island, using it not only for sacrificial refinement of magical treasures but also for transforming and evolving demon beasts.

But his development time has been relatively short. Since engaging in three swordfights, resulting in the Heavenly Demon Immortal Slaying Sword being severed, he fled from Jiuhua Mountain, until forcefully seizing the body of Dongxuan Immortal to restart development, and only then created millions of demon beasts, counting all genders, ages, and conditions. Though many, only the leading demon beasts exhibit true power.

On Shi Feiyang's side, the overall strength of the million Daoist Soldiers is more balanced, all being adults who passed assessments before becoming Daoist Soldiers, each proficient in at least one Daoist technique, reaching a certain powerful degree, continue intensive cultivation of higher-level spells, and participate in various array training after becoming Daoist Soldiers.

Each is equipped with state-issued standardized magical treasures, divided into five large battalions, advancing with formation, riding the wind and waves.

They first reach the Hainan region, confronting Chi You's demon troops.

Chi You's demon troops dispatched are rather chaotic, lacking a complete system. When attacking, they rely entirely on Great Demons to lead the charge, while small demons trail behind, waving flags and shouting, winning battles easily. Great Demons lack coordination, each fighting instinctively, attacking wherever they feel opportune.

His millions of demon troops mostly stayed in the north, many crowded at Bohai Bay, while those on the southern coast were fewer in number, primarily composed of the old, weak, sick, and disabled.

Yuan Tuo acts as the general commander, directly instructing Red Snake to lead the vanguard on the offensive, to eliminate the enemy's main forces, while flanks led respectively by Long Meng and Wu Longzi advance in sweeping pushes.

The Daoist Soldiers of Yu Country are all very cultured, most have taken human forms, donned human garments, some driving flying swords, others waving banners, some wielding magical treasures, unleashing thousand-length flames and hundreds of divine thunders, appearing like heavenly immortals descending, striking Chi You's demon troops into disarray.
