The majestic palace stood atop the mountain, entirely made of white jade.
In front of the grand hall stood a stone tablet towering a hundred meters high.
This tablet was erected at the founding of the Dao Alliance, known as the Prologue Stele, symbolizing the order and peace of the Cultivation World. The major criminals of the Cultivation World would meet their demise upon this stone.
The Prologue Stele was also a symbol of the Dao Alliance, its surface gleaming white jade adorned with intricate patterns, stained with blood yet remaining immaculate.
At the inception of the Dao Alliance, it maintained the boundary between Cultivators and mortals, preserving order among Cultivators. It was indeed a prosperous era.
However, now the Dao Alliance had long strayed from its original purpose for its own interests, secretly colluding with any force.
Within this solemn and grand Dao Alliance, a murky atmosphere prevailed, filled with people from all walks of life.
Chained to the Prologue Stele was a man in a tattered black robe. His clothes were ragged, blood staining the corner of his mouth. His white sword-like brows were smeared with filth, and his long black hair hung in disarray. A mocking smile lingered on his handsome face as he looked down at the ants before him.
Yet these mere ants from the Spirit Realm had taken advantage of his injury to seal his spiritual power with an ancient curse.
Hmph, had he known that these filthy Cultivators would act so beastly, he should have wiped them out from the start to prevent them from causing harm to the world. Yet here he was, caught in their hands.
Well, well, he could only wonder how his junior brother was faring and how the Tang family he vowed to protect was doing; it seemed he had brought them trouble.
A group of imposing Cultivators emerged from the hall, led by Haitai Ping.
As the main figure appeared, those present gradually quieted down.
“Everyone! I believe you all know who is bound to the Prologue Stele,” Haitai Ping announced.
The crowd below murmured among themselves, many being uninformed wandering Cultivators.
“This man is none other than the Seven Lives Demon, a disciple of the Seven Lives Sect from three thousand years ago. His cultivation surpasses our understanding; he has crossed beyond boundaries.”
"Haitai Ping" declared loudly, causing a stir among the crowd below.
What realm is above the realm?
"Cultivation" is beyond comprehension. With that, such a powerful deity could be captured by the "Dao Alliance," showcasing just how formidable their methods are!
"To be honest with you all, when we encountered him, he was already severely injured, which is why we were able to succeed."
Even a dying camel is bigger than a horse; even if this deity was wounded, it would not be something that mere "Spirit Realm" practitioners could capture. "Haitai Ping" was clearly telling everyone that the "Dao Alliance" could even capture deities alive!
It turns out that today's "Exorcism Ritual" was meant to establish authority!
"Ladies and gentlemen, today our 'Dao Alliance' will eliminate this 'Demon' from the 'Yuqing Realm.' In the future, the 'Cultivation World' must unite. Our 'Dao Alliance' will definitely manage the relationships between various factions. I believe that under the leadership of the 'Dao Alliance,' the 'Cultivation World' will flourish even more!"
These words exposed "Haitai Ping's" ambitions without reservation.
In the audience, a man dressed in a white embroidered robe became furious: "This 'Haitai Ping' is becoming increasingly outrageous, actually trying to unify the 'Cultivation World'!"
This man was none other than "Gong Shu Ming Jie," the Palace Master of the "Heaven and Earth Hall." Realizing his outburst was inappropriate, he quickly added in a low voice, "A single 'Dao Alliance' cannot possibly oppose all the current sects. Merely relying on this so-called 'Exorcism Ritual' cannot reveal his ambitions. Moreover, 'Haitai Ping' has always been a cautious person, so there must be some powerful backing behind him!"
"Master Uncle, who do you think this backing might be?" asked a "Blue-Clad Disciple."
"Yue Yun. Who else do you think could provide such backing?"
"If 'Haitai Ping' feels secure enough to expose his ambitions like this, then surely this backing isn't one of the 'Eight Major Sects,' and none of them possess such strength," replied "Yue Yun."
"Correct."
"Master Uncle, could it be that several of the 'Eight Major Sects' have joined forces?"
"No way, the Eight Major Sects are constantly at odds with each other. What ability does Haitai Ping have to unite them? Even if they were united, he wouldn't be able to satisfy the ambitions of each faction."
"Master Uncle? Could it be..."
The two exchanged glances, and Gong Shu Ming Jie simply shook his head lightly.
Clearly, whatever was about to emerge made them uneasy.
Then, Haitai Ping spoke at length, merely enticing the wandering Cultivators to join the Dao Alliance or persuading experts from other sects to switch sides. He also aimed to establish authority over them, making them hesitant to act recklessly.
Indeed, this was the focus of today!
"The Exorcism Ritual begins!"
With that, a group of White-Masked Figures escorted a box onto the stage.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is one of the treasures of the Dao Alliance, the God-Slaying Pestle. The spiritual power contained within it is enough to backfire on any user below the Spirit Realm, leading to their death. This magical artifact was left behind by the ancestors who founded the Dao Alliance, and for the first time in hundreds of years, it will be used today, at this very moment!"
Haitai Ping held the God-Slaying Pestle. It was about seven feet long and one inch wide. The pestle was entirely black, its surface smooth and clean, without any patterns or flaws. At first glance, it seemed like an ordinary pestle with nothing special about it; its only distinction was its smoothness, which made onlookers question whether they could hold it without it slipping from their grasp.
However, such worries were unnecessary. Haitai Ping held it firmly; the God-Slaying Pestle emanated a faint glow in his hands. Only then did everyone feel its power—it was indeed a divine artifact!
Haitai Ping noted that such a divine artifact was merely one of the treasures of the sect. It seemed that the Dao Alliance must have many more valuable items!
Many wandering experts in the audience began contemplating when they might steal treasures from the Dao Alliance. However, upon seeing those guarding figures in white masks, they quickly dismissed such thoughts. Each masked figure was at least at the upper level of the Spirit Jade Realm! They were just a step away from entering the Spirit Realm!
When did the Dao Alliance acquire such a powerful group of Cultivators?
Everyone who noticed this was shocked by the strength of the Dao Alliance!
It seems that the earlier ambitions of Haitai Ping were not unfounded. The Exorcism Ritual was underway on stage, while those in the audience pondered how they would confront the Dao Alliance, evade it, or perhaps...
Submit to the Dao Alliance...
Now, the leaders of various sects had already recognized the strength of the Dao Alliance. At the moment Haitai Ping lifted the God-Slaying Pestle, they clearly sensed that his cultivation had reached the peak of the intermediate level in the Spirit Realm!
At some point, his previously stagnant cultivation had surged significantly!
Moreover, there were so many experts on the verge of entering the Spirit Realm.
Now, some had already expressed their stance. The leader of the Hehuan Sect stepped forward to declare allegiance, and Haitai Ping took note of this, planning to discuss the next steps after the Exorcism Ritual concluded.
It appeared that the effects of this ritual exceeded expectations.
Haitai Ping approached the Prologue Stele and raised the God-Slaying Pestle, drawing everyone's attention.
The crowd held their breath; this deity was about to fall! And they would witness this moment with their own eyes!
