Chapter 397 Life and Death Reversed
"Head towards the gate of death!"
Upon receiving this order, many experts from the Xuan Yue clan immediately led their army towards the Death Gate of the Bagua Formation.
Protected by eight or nine immortal artifacts, the Xuan Yue clan army remained calm and resisted the attack of the three major families, and began to enter the death gate of the Bagua formation!
"Are they courting death?"
"Once you enter the Gate of Death, there is no chance of survival; even immortals cannot withstand it!"
"Heh, they've really lost their minds!"
Seeing this, the experts from the three major families spoke up one after another, making sarcastic remarks and showing a hint of schadenfreude. At the same time, their attacks slowed down slightly.
Even Bai Tianmo, She Xingzhuliu, and the others showed expressions of confusion on their faces at this moment.
"The crescent moon hangs over the wilderness; what exactly is it up to?"
Ye Lanhan frowned.
"Running into the Gate of Death is courting certain death..."
They were all puzzled.
Seeing that the entire Xuan Yue clan had entered the Death Gate, the forces of the three major clans stopped outside the Bagua Formation, unsure of what to do.
"Lord Dongya, what should we do next?"
During the day, Mo turned around and asked Dong Ya Ge a question.
Dong Ya Ge also glanced indifferently at the Death Gate, somewhat regretfully.
He originally planned to capture that old bastard Xuan Yuexuanye, torture him thoroughly, and then make him watch as his entire clan was slaughtered...
Only in this way can he avenge his son and vent his anger.
But unexpectedly, the other party was so resolute, leading their entire clan into the Gate of Death...
"It doesn't matter, they're all going to die anyway. Since they want to enter the gate of death, then we shouldn't let them come out again."
He spoke calmly, then waved his hand and said, "Begin the array!"
According to information collected by the four major families over the years, the mysterious burial site of Ancient Demon Mountain is hidden behind this Bagua formation. To open it, all that is needed is to use the demon bones from the Celestial Master Palace to perform a grand sacrificial ceremony.
At that time, the Bagua Formation will open up channels, allowing people to enter.
Once the ritual begins, the Bagua Formation will start operating, and the Gate of Death will become a purgatory of death, where no one can survive.
Immediately, the powerful figures from the three major families stepped forward, set up offering tables, and placed all the large quantities of demonic bones they had purchased at the auction on them.
"With the power of the three great clans' wishes, bless the demonic bones, and open this place!"
Bai Shanhe stepped forward, serving as the chief priest. With a wave of his hand, the armies of the three races behind him chanted ancient incantations, the sound overwhelming and astonishing.
A vast, sacred power of will emerged, like a sky full of starlight, and then landed on the demonic bones on the altar, causing them to tremble instantly.
Suddenly, streams of black demonic energy emerged from the black demonic bones and drifted towards the Bagua formation in front.
Boom!
The ancient formation was activated, and the Bagua formation began to operate. In an instant, endless terrifying energy was released from it, and powerful forces that surpassed the immortal level filled the Bagua formation.
"It truly is a power that surpasses immortality!"
"It seems this place truly holds the opportunity for our race to transcend immortality!"
We must get it!
The members of the three major families were all excited at this moment.
Why all this scheming and intrigue? It's all for the chance to seize the opportunities within the Ancient Demon Mountain and to covet the status of the Immortal Royal Family!
Now, they have exactly what they need here.
In an instant, a vast light emerged from the three gates of the Bagua formation—the Gate of Life, the Gate of View, and the Gate of Opening—forming three bridges that extended to the altars of the three major clans.
Looking ahead across the three bridges, the end seemed to be a series of vast Dao palaces, filled with celestial mist, sacred beings everywhere, the essence of the five elements, and even Dao fruits and Dao principles, which appeared as readily available as fruits on trees...
Furthermore, there was even immortal light within it, and faintly, there was even more powerful mist, clearly concealing unimaginable Dao fruits.
For a moment, everyone was stunned.
"So many cultivation resources?"
"As long as we get in, my clan will definitely be able to ascend to the status of an immortal royal family, and I will also be able to break through my current limitations..."
"So much stuff, enough to divide, more than enough to divide, enough for my clan to accumulate for thousands of years!"
In an instant, everyone was extremely excited. Whether they were experts who were close to immortality or cultivators who had just embarked on the forbidden path, their eyes were filled with eager anticipation!
It should be understood that in the present Eternal True Realm, there are eternal and immortal royal families above and countless immortal clans below. All the benefits of the Eternal True Realm were already divided up countless years ago.
In a completely rigid world, even members of immortal families face fierce competition, and every step they take up requires trampling countless peers under their feet.
Under such circumstances, even some direct descendants of families had to be eliminated. For example, Bai Zhou, who previously founded the Heavenly Emperor Society, was a scion of an immortal family.
It is precisely for this reason that after the Xuan Yue clan declined, it was targeted by clans such as the She Xing and Bai family.
If you want to eat more meat, you have to snatch it from someone else's bowl!
Why did the Eternal Royal Court go to such lengths to plan for the Void Realm, trying to guide the remnants of the Heavenly Emperor and make the Void Realm become real?
The purpose is to open up new resource areas and find new sources, so as to meet the needs of the entire Eternal True Realm and alleviate internal conflicts.
When a group or a world expands outward, it is often when internal conflicts reach their peak.
Because internal solutions are completely hopeless, they pin their hopes on war and external plunder.
All of this demonstrates just how important resources are to the major powers in the Eternal True Realm today.
What we have now is enough for several major families to use for a thousand years, and the entire family will benefit!
So, who wouldn't be excited?
"Let's go in quickly, this place is truly a sacred site!"
"Yes, this is an opportunity for our clan!"
"The immortal royal family is the future of our race!"
They shouted that they couldn't wait.
"Such an opportunity truly exists! No wonder, no wonder all the patriarchs were willing to pay any price to enter back then. This is an unparalleled opportunity for breakthrough!"
By day, Mo's eyes were burning with desire. He stared at a wisp of ethereal light in that world, his aged body trembling slightly.
He was certain that it was the supreme celestial light!
"After so many years of hard work and dedication, we've finally paid off!"
Ye Lanhan's eyes were filled with anticipation.
"Fellow Daoists, the opportunities here are plentiful; let our three great clans share them equally!"
Meanwhile, Shooting Stars and Chasing Streams spoke loudly, already considering the distribution of interests among the three major clans.
Both of them nodded in agreement.
Only one person seemed to have some doubts at this moment!
Dongya Ge!
According to the intelligence he received, the demons here were definitely not simple, but now it seems that it is indeed a blessed land.
However, now that things have come to this, we have to go and take a look no matter what.
"Enter!"
At his command, the people of the three major families immediately surged forward like a tidal wave towards the path of opportunity.
How eager they are!
On the other side...
Boom!
When the world of opportunity unfolds within the three gates of Life, View, and Open, the Xuan Yue clan, who are located within the Gate of Death, are filled with immense fear.
At this moment, dark clouds filled the Gate of Death, demonic energy surged, and the aura of death descended, making everyone uneasy, as if the end of the world was about to arrive.
"What should we do... it seems we've gone to the wrong place."
"This is the gate of death! We'll die! No one can survive!"
"Is my entire race destined to be wiped out here?"
Everyone was terrified.
"Hehe, fellow Daoists of the Xuan Yue Clan, since you have chosen to enter the Gate of Death, you can't blame us for it."
As he walked along the golden avenue, Shooting Stars glanced in this direction and immediately revealed a mocking sneer.
"What a pity, what a pity... Xuan Yue Xuan Ye, if you kneel down and kowtow to me three times, I will send out some of your clan's geniuses to serve as cattle and horses for our clan to bear children, how about it?"
Bai Shanhe was even more gloating, saying, "In this way, at least some members of your Xuan Yue clan can survive, which is better than them all dying here. What do you say?"
"Haha, Brother Bai, you've got a good plan! How about this: our Yelan clan can also accept young celestial maidens from the Xuanyue clan. As long as they kneel down now, they can marry into our Yelan clan. What do you say?"
Ye Lanmingfang also spoke with a smile!
They were arrogant and condescending, mocking the Xuan Yue clan to the extreme.
The faces of everyone in the Xuan Yue clan were ashen, as if a dark cloud of death had descended upon them, and they were all filled with utter despair.
Even Xuan Yue Chang Kong's face was grim at this moment, and he couldn't help but look at Li Lan.
Xuan Yuexuanye was not flustered, but his expression became serious. He asked, "Young friend, what is your plan?"
In his view, Li Lan's decision to let him enter this place was definitely not to send the Xuan Yue clan to their deaths.
He must have some plan.
Li Lan, however, remained calm and took out some demonic bones.
These demonic bones were carefully selected and kept by him; there's no problem with them.
Suddenly, a faint demonic aura appeared on his body and entered the demonic bones.
In an instant.
Boom!
The sky changed color, the tribulation clouds in the sky suddenly dispersed, and rolling demonic energy descended abruptly, forming a black demonic path in front of the Xuan Yue clan.
However, the scene at the end of this black ink road was completely opposite to the golden avenue of the three major clans.
The world ahead is filled with monstrous demonic energy, resembling a purgatory of the demon realm, with countless ghosts wailing and mountains of corpses and seas of blood, a sight that would terrify anyone.
"Where...is this place?"
"Does this road lead to the underworld?"
"Death...this is the road to death."
The entire Xuan Yue clan was shocked, exchanging bewildered glances. This path filled them with dread.
"Let's go,"
At that moment, Li Lan was the first to step onto it.
The Xuan Yue clan was shocked. Was Li Lan going to his death?
"I'll risk it all! Wherever the boss goes, I'll go!"
Gu Yijian gritted his teeth and was the first to follow: "Boss, even if it's hell ahead, I'll go with you!"
Gongsun Moxuan did not hesitate and immediately embarked on this path.
"Ancestor, Mr. Wu Heng... is trustworthy!"
Xuan Yue Qian Tang simply said one sentence to Xuan Yue Xuan Ye, and then resolutely left.
All three of them had received guidance from Li Lan, and now in their eyes, Li Lan was like a god, so naturally they had no doubts.
Xuan Yuexuan frowned deeply; the fate of his entire clan rested on this moment… Even so, he couldn’t help but hesitate slightly.
But the next moment, he took a deep breath and said, "Our clan has nowhere to retreat. The only option now is to fight for survival. Everyone, follow Mr. Wu Heng and move forward!"
