604: Chapter 213: Sudden Arrival of the Demon!

Sect Leader suffered a breakthrough failure and demonic possession?

Li Ping’an immediately dispatched someone to urgently summon Elder Yansheng, leading him to his father’s place.

“Elder, when did you arrive?”

“I used a teleportation talisman,” Elder Yansheng sighed, “I didn’t expect the Sect Leader to be one step away from becoming a Golden Immortal, but due to being overly hasty, he has injured his Dao Body.”

Li Ping’an asked, “Did the ancestors treat the Sect Leader?”

“They did,” Yansheng’s expression was largely one of helplessness, “The Great Dao reverberated, the Dao of Wanyun almost collapsed, the Sect Leader likely has to pass on his position.”

“What happened to the Sect Leader?”

Li Dazhi and Elder Xu Sheng rushed out together.

Elder Yansheng bowed in greeting, and relayed the matter of Sect Leader Yun Mo’s failed breakthrough and the injury to his Dao Foundation again.

“Then what are we waiting for, let’s hurry back!”

Li Dazhi took out a sect summoning command from his sleeve and immediately distributed it to three people.

However, Elder Xu Sheng said, “Hold on!

We must not act rashly at this time!”

Li Ping’an covertly gave Elder Xu Sheng a meaningful glance, asking, “Did the Sect Leader say anything else?”

Elder Yansheng pondered for a moment: “All I heard were a few words, the Sect Leader said to strengthen our defenses, to ask Elder Linghua and Uncle Yun Ting to leave their retreat; the sect might be in trouble, and the sect’s grand formation has been raised to its highest…

Eh!

What’s wrong?”

Xu Sheng suddenly made a move, sealing Elder Yansheng’s Primordial Spirit with one gesture, took out a Greenwave Water-splitting Cover, and pressed Elder Yansheng into it.

Li Dazhi looked bewildered: “What’s going on?”

“To see if he’s a demonic spy!”

Li Ping’an took out the Cangyue Bead and handed it to Xu Sheng, who wiped his hands on his clothes and then held the Cangyue Bead in his palm, bringing out a round gong-shaped divine artifact, setting the Cangyue Bead into it.

“The thousand uses of the Cangyue Bead.”

Soon, the young Artifact Spirit of the Cangyue Bead appeared above the treasure bead, bowing to Li Ping’an:

“Master, this person’s soul is normal, the Great Dao he cultivates is indeed the Dao of Wanyun, his lifespan is more than twenty-two thousand years.”

Li Ping’an blinked, turning his head to ask Xu Sheng, “Is it really Elder Yansheng?”

Xu Sheng pondered for a while: “It should be no mistake.”

After a moment, both Li Ping’an and Xu Sheng bowed deeply in apology.

Lines of frustration appeared on Elder Yansheng’s forehead, but he didn’t say anything, merely commenting, “It’s good to be cautious in extraordinary times.”

“Let’s get back quickly!”

Li Dazhi hurriedly activated the sect summoning command, surrounded by strands of immortal light, a vortex appeared in the void, and he was directly sucked into it.

Li Ping’an glanced at the Xuanyuan sword scabbard and the Nuwa divine statue hidden in his sleeve but stopped Elder Xu Sheng.

“Elder, I’m feeling somewhat uneasy, could you please go to the Immortal Dynasty and invite Tianli to come over…”

“Isn’t Tianli supposed to be guarding the central hub of the Eastern Alliance?

The borderland great demons are making secret attacks…”

“That’s why we can only ask Tianli to come over; if Wanyun Sect is fine, Tianli can quickly return.”

“Good!”

Elder Xu Sheng agreed with a nod.

Li Ping’an didn’t dare delay further, summoned the immortals, and sent messages to Aunt Xiaoyue and his junior sister Ningning Mu, instructing the two to stay at the supervising government office and not to wander around.

Wang Shan and the ones from Xing He and Xinghan who would return later would also rest here.

After making these arrangements, Li Ping’an and Elder Yansheng activated the sect summoning command together.

This one-way teleportation talisman originating from Elder Linghua made the return to the sect gates relatively more convenient.

…

Upon returning to Wanyun Sect, Li Ping’an could feel a heavy atmosphere.

The Sect Leader’s failure was a significant blow to the spirit of the sect’s Qi Cultivators up and down the ranks.

Li Dazhi was waiting at the sect gates, with more than a hundred immortals already arriving to meet him.

As Li Ping’an and Elder Yansheng moved forward, Li Dazhi pulled Li Ping’an aside, frowning and whispering, “Ping’an, you need to give me some advice.”

“What’s up, Dad?”

“The Sect Leader might pass the position to me,” muttered Li Dazhi, “I temporarily can’t come back to Wanyun Sect, I still need to help out at your place…

with teaching that person…

”

Li Ping’an said sternly, “Let’s talk about that later, let’s go see the Sect Leader’s condition first.”

“Right, let’s go.”

Displaying a troubled expression, Li Dazhi added,

“The Sect Leader’s been good to us both, I hope he doesn’t end up with any lasting afflictions.”

With that, Li Dazhi led Li Ping’an through the gates on a cloud, followed by the gathering immortals.

Along the way, Wanyun disciples actively flew over to follow behind Li Dazhi.

They seemed to have found their backbone, and upon seeing Li Dazhi’s figure, their eyes showed more calm.

When the disciples of Wanyun Sect saw Li Ping’an, many were indecisive.

Facing the ‘Enlightened True Immortal’ personally titled by the Human Emperor, they all wanted to approach and ask about cultivation queries;

facing the Great Commander of the Eastern Alliance’s first-rank supervision, they pondered whether to give a formal greeting.

But the atmosphere wasn’t quite right for either questions or salutations, so they merely watched from afar, trying to make eye contact with Li Ping’an.

They continued along the way to the main peak, Wanyun Hall.

The Golden Immortal of Wanyun Sect, Yun Ting, came forward to greet them, saying urgently, “Brother Dazhi, you’ve finally arrived, Yun Mo has been urgently asking for you!”

Li Dazhi quickened his pace toward the corner where the Sect Leader’s cottage was situated.

“Brother, how is the Sect Leader’s injury?”

“It’s very severe,” Yun Ting sighed, “He was too anxious, attempted a forced breakthrough of the long-life barrier, and the Primordial Spirit was struck by the Great Dao’s reverberation; his cultivation might drop one or two grades, and the most serious is the injury to his Dao Foundation.”

Li Dazhi frowned and asked, “Why was the Sect Leader in such a rush?”

Li Ping’an said, “He might have felt some pressure.”

Li Dazhi seemed as if he wanted to say more but, greeted by the other elders at the fore, he had already reached the cottage door.

The door opened on its own, revealing the figures of Elder Kongming and Elder Linghua.

At this moment, Yun Mo was lying on the bed, his face pale as if made of golden paper, his breath weak, his Daoist robe stained with blood.

A subtle and unstable aura of the Longevity Dao Charm circulated in the room, which would soon vanish.
