Chapter 1884: The Upheaval of the Blood Fiend Sect (Part 1)
The thousand-mile Demon City had been reduced entirely to scorched ruins, demonic energy lingering endlessly in the air, the land littered with bones.
It had only been a few days since Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan arrived at this Tongtian Demon City.
Such a span of time, to cultivators, was no more than a breath in the vast river of existence.
Yet within this fleeting moment, this ancient demon city—one that had stood tall upon the cliff walls of the Demon Realm for tens of thousands of years—was utterly annihilated by Jiang Chengxuan’s hand! Truly, a terrifying feat beyond comprehension!
After Jiang Chengxuan slew the Tongtian Demon Sovereign, Shen Ruyan’s strength only soared further in the aftermath of battle.
Having fully grasped the power of her mid-stage Profound Immortal cultivation, she revealed her true talent and overwhelming combat prowess.
The demon elders, already gravely injured, could not withstand even a single exchange under her relentless assault!
With each clash, the destructive power escalated. Heaven-shaking thunder roared without end.
The pressure Shen Ruyan brought down on them was like an unrelenting storm, gathering force upon force, ultimately crushing them beneath its weight.
When the divine thunder token burst forth in full brilliance, its power reached its zenith.
Countless bolts of celestial thunder, each thousands of feet long, transformed into stampeding beasts, roaring through the void, piercing the body of the final surviving elder of the Demon Sect.
Thus, all the elders of the Demon City perished in this one battle—none were spared!
What followed was merciless slaughter. Under Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s hands, the demon horde was reduced to bleached bone.
The entire Demon City became a purgatory, where untold numbers of demon cultivators met their end, their souls shattered and scattered.
And so, with just the two of them, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan captured the Tongtian Demon City in the blink of an eye, breaking this strategic stronghold and dealing a devastating blow to the Blood Fiend Sect.
“What?! The Xianjue Demon City has already fallen? The army of Cloudmist Immortal Sect has invaded our Blood Fiend Sect?!”
Meanwhile, within the main sect of the Blood Fiend Sect, in the grand and resplendent demon hall, the Fiend Immortal of the Blood Fiend Sect finally received word from the front lines of the Demon Realm.
In that instant, he was struck with utter shock, his mind reeling. Then rage surged from his heart, his hair bristling with fury, his face contorting in wrath.
Never in his wildest thoughts did he imagine that the Cloudmist Immortal Sect would launch a full-scale assault against the Blood Fiend Sect without the slightest warning!
Such an event had never occurred before, even after tens of thousands of years of mutual enmity.
How could he not be shaken to the core?!
“Report! Patriarch!”
“Tongtian Demon City was assaulted by a suspected Golden Immortal! The Tongtian Demon Sovereign sent an urgent plea for reinforcements!”
But that was not the end of it. Just as the Fiend Immortal was about to rise in fury, another elder of the sect rushed into the hall, voice filled with panic and urgency.
“What!? How is that possible?!”
Hearing this, the Fiend Immortal’s eyes bulged wide. His body trembled violently in disbelief, then roared in outrage.
Tongtian Demon City was one of the Blood Fiend Sect’s natural barriers.
If it fell, then the perilous road leading to the heart of the Demon Realm would lie wide open.
The severity of this could not be overstated!
What’s more alarming was that the message claimed a suspected Golden Immortal had led the attack!
This was what the Fiend Immortal found hardest to accept.
If that Golden Immortal were the Elder Yunshi of the Cloudmist Sect, the Demon City’s ruler would not have sent such a desperate call for help.
But the report merely stated “a Golden Immortal”—not Yunshi—indicating one terrifying possibility:
That the Cloudmist Immortal Sect had another mysterious Golden Immortal aiding them—one who had taken the offensive against the Blood Fiend Sect!
Only then did this sudden, seemingly senseless campaign of extermination begin to make logical sense!
And if a Golden Immortal was leading the assault, then even with Tongtian Demon City’s formidable defenses, the Tongtian Demon Sovereign would not be able to hold the line.
That meant the fall of the city was almost a certainty—a devastating development.
“Damn it! Damn that old bastard Yunshi! He’s gone too far!”
At this thought, the Fiend Immortal’s eyes turned bloodshot. His breathing became ragged.
Terrifying demonic energy surged violently from his body, a manifestation of the fury and murderous intent in his heart!
“Transmit my orders—every demon cultivator of the Blood Fiend Sect is to march, no matter the cost, and intercept the Cloudmist Immortal Sect’s army!”
“Whoever slays members of the Cloudmist Sect shall be handsomely rewarded!”
“This battle shall determine the life and death of the Blood Fiend Sect! Any soldier who flees shall be executed on the spot!”
With that, the Fiend Immortal erupted in furious roars, his voice thunderous as he issued command after command, shaking the entire Blood Fiend Sect to its core.
Immediately, countless demon cultivators of the sect began to mobilize. Armies from all corners of the Demon Cities moved into full war readiness.
Elite forces poured in from the sect’s holy mountain and even from beyond the White Eagle Territories.
They were determined to join this war of annihilation!
Among them, those demon cultivators who had joined the sect during the recent Ten Thousand Demons Assembly were brimming with bloodlust, thrilled by the opportunity.
They had long awaited a chance to earn the recognition of the Fiend Immortal himself—
To surpass their peers and soar to greatness.
And now, with the Cloudmist Sect’s all-out invasion, that chance had come.
Every Cloudmist Immortal slain would be a stepping stone in their rise through the ranks.
As for the possibility of the Cloudmist Sect annihilating the entire Blood Fiend Sect?
They didn’t believe it for a second.
They believed in their own strength—especially the newly recruited demon cultivators.
In their eyes, the long-standing stalemate between the Blood Fiend Sect and the Cloudmist Sect was merely due to their absence.
Now that they had joined, the tide would change.
The Ten Thousand Demons Assembly had cost them greatly, but it had also filled them with supreme confidence.
“Patriarch! We are willing to go forth and slaughter those Cloudmist bastards!”
“How dare the Cloudmist Immortal Sect act so arrogantly toward our Blood Fiend Sect?! We will crush them!”
