Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree-Chapter 323: Nine Tolling Bells

In the vast mountain range, peaks overlapped, with purple mist swirling as celestial cranes took flight. The dense Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi permeated the green mountains, and occasionally cultivators could be seen flying on swords, truly a scene of an immortal’s abode.

This is the Jade Spirit Sect.

The residence of a major sect in the Taiyuan Realm.

Although the Jade Spirit Sect’s strength is not as great as top sects like the Immortal King Sect, it still holds considerable prestige within the Taiyuan Realm.

It is where the Jade Spirit Sect is located.

Even demonic cultivators do not dare to invade lightly.

However——

Today, the tranquility of the Jade Spirit Sect was suddenly disrupted.

Suddenly, the sky collapsed and shattered, and under the ravaging terrifying aura, many rare and auspicious beasts were filled with fear, fleeing in all directions.

All the disciples of the Jade Spirit Sect looked up at the sky with eyes full of shock and horror.

Immediately following.

Urgent tolling of bells rang out, reaching the ears of every Jade Spirit Sect disciple.

"The bells rang nine times, this means a strong enemy has invaded!"

"Look quickly, the Sect Protection Array is activated. Could it be an attack from the Demon Dao?"

"Impossible, our Jade Spirit Sect is a major righteous sect and has a close relationship with the Immortal King Sect. How dare a demonic sect invade?"

Despite the panic in their hearts, the Jade Spirit Sect disciples outwardly maintained their composure.

In their eyes.

Although the Jade Spirit Sect cannot compare to top sects like the Immortal King Sect, it is still a major sect, with powerful Integration Stage cultivators within.

Moreover.

There is even a Supreme Elder at the Void Refining stage alive.

Besides.

The relationship between the Jade Spirit Sect and the Immortal King Sect is very good.

Under such circumstances, not even the demonic sects would rashly start a war with the Jade Spirit Sect.

After all, once war begins,

they would offend not only the Jade Spirit Sect but also the Immortal King Sect behind it.

It must be known.

The Immortal King Sect is a top sect in the righteous path, no less than the Wenda Sect, with Tribulation Stage experts alive within its ranks.

In the current times without the Mahayana Stage, Tribulation Stage experts are the pinnacle.

Just when some disciples felt slightly at ease, they saw a giant hand covering the sky suddenly descend from the heavens.

Then, under the shocked gazes of all disciples.

As steady as a rock.

The Sect Protection Array, which even Void Refining Stage experts would find hard to break, shattered like rotten wood.

"Boom——"

The terrifying shockwaves spread in all directions.

But all the disciples and elders of the Jade Spirit Sect were dumbfounded, with some fear in their eyes.

"Impossible, the Jade Spirit Sect’s Sect Protection Array was set up by top array masters. Even Void Refining Stage experts cannot break it so easily.

Who is the invader with such strength!"

A Jade Spirit Sect elder felt a bit fearful.

The instant breaking of the Sect Protection Array indicates the invader’s strength is very powerful, at least at the pinnacle of Void Refining, or possibly at the Tribulation Stage.

At the thought of the word Tribulation Stage,

an aura of death overwhelmed him, as if enclosing him completely, making it hard to breathe.

At this moment.

A powerful aura erupted from within the sect.

A purple-robed Daoist rose into the sky, looked at the shattered void, and said aloud, "I, Master Yuan Ling, Sect Leader of Jade Spirit Sect, dare to ask who Your Excellency is, and why you attack the Jade Spirit Sect.

If we have offended in any way, please state it clearly, and the Jade Spirit Sect will certainly apologize!"

With Master Yuan Ling’s words, the void fell silent.

Seeing this, Master Yuan Ling started to sweat on his forehead.

When the mysterious expert attacked, Master Yuan Ling immediately activated the Sect Protection Array.

But he never imagined that the powerful Sect Protection Array of the Jade Spirit Sect would shatter in an instant.

As the Sect Protection Array shattered, Master Yuan Ling wanted to send a message to the Immortal King Sect.

After all, being able to shatter the Sect Protection Array with one blow likely means a Tribulation Stage expert has personally arrived, and even with all the Jade Spirit Sect’s power, it would be hard to resist such an existence.

Only by messaging the Immortal King Sect could they resolve the current crisis.

However.

When he tried to send the message, Master Yuan Ling discovered something shocking.

That was that the message couldn’t be sent out.

As the Sect Leader of the Jade Spirit Sect, how could Master Yuan Ling not understand the situation?

This means that a powerful expert has secretly set up a Sealing Array around the Jade Spirit Sect, preventing messages from being sent.

At the same time.

This also implies something else.

The invaders have been planning against the Jade Spirit Sect for a long time.

Under such circumstances, Master Yuan Ling could only stand out boldly.

One breath!

Two breaths!

...

A moment passed.

Just as the pressure in Master Yuan Ling’s heart grew heavier, he saw the space in front of him shatter, and a towering figure stepped through the air, followed by a dense army of cultivators.

"Cyan Yang Divine Court... Vermilion Ape!"

Master Yuan Ling’s expression changed drastically.

He was all too familiar with Vermilion Ape.

A while ago, when the Cyan Yang Divine Court invaded, various sects in the Taiyuan Realm united to barely halt their advance.

But that battle.

Showed all cultivators the terrifying strength of the Cyan Yang Divine Court.

Especially Vermilion Ape, whose strength was comparable to a Tribulation Stage, remembered by all.

Even Daoist Taifeng of the Wenda Sect, despite carrying an eighth-grade Dao Artifact, couldn’t suppress him, a testament to his strength.

Now seeing Vermilion Ape and the Demon Court army appear, Master Yuan Ling felt his heart sink completely.

If the demonic sects attacked, the Jade Spirit Sect might still have room to maneuver, but with the army of the Cyan Yang Divine Court, the Jade Spirit Sect was beyond salvation.

At this moment.

The Jade Spirit Sect was in complete chaos.

The name of the Cyan Yang Divine Court now shook the entire Taiyuan Realm.

In the previous battle, many cultivators from the Taiyuan Realm fell, including Void Refining and Tribulation Stage experts.

Now hearing that experts from the Cyan Yang Divine Court had arrived, many disciples and elders of the Jade Spirit Sect showed despair on their faces.

Vermilion Ape had a calm expression as his Divine Thought swept across the entire Jade Spirit Sect, revealing everything in his view.

When his Divine Thought landed on a certain forbidden area, a hint of derision appeared at the corner of Vermilion Ape’s mouth.

Seventh-grade middle level!

According to the Demon Race’s strength division, this is the level of a mid-level Demon Saint.

Before coming to the Jade Spirit Sect, Vermilion Ape had already understood the sect’s strength, with a rough idea of its power.

Now seeing the existence of someone on par with a Demon Saint didn’t surprise Vermilion Ape.

Subsequently.

Vermilion Ape looked at Master Yuan Ling in front of him and calmly said, "I am Vermilion Ape from the Cyan Yang Divine Court’s subordinate force, the Demon Court.

Now I have set up a Sealing Array around the Jade Spirit Sect, so you have no chance of escape.

However, the Cyan Yang Divine Court has always been merciful, so I offer you a chance. If you swear allegiance to the Cyan Yang Divine Court, the Jade Spirit Sect will have a chance to survive."

Swear allegiance?

Hearing these words, Master Yuan Ling was righteously indignant, with a look of seeing death as a return.

"Righteousness of heaven and earth, long-lasting, the foundation of the Jade Spirit Sect is to eliminate demons and uphold the Dao, even if it means death. We will never yield to demonic heretics."

As soon as these words were spoken.

Vermilion Ape’s expression turned cold, losing interest in further talk with Master Yuan Ling.

"Kill!"
