Chapter 558: Chapter 348: The Unmatched True Form of the Demon God and the Exterminate-Demon Plan (Part 3)
Su Yu clasped his hands in salute and said in a deep voice:
"Disciple requests the headmaster to mobilize the sect to exterminate the demons!"
"Which demons do you intend to exterminate?"
"To the south, the Blood Demon Hall and the Yin Yang Demon Sect."
"We might not possess the strength at this moment!"
Su Yu waved his hand, and a chaotic portal opened behind him. Xuan Yue, Chi Xiao, Void Nether, and Han Yuan stepped out one by one, their presence far surpassing that of the same level Celestial Immortals, causing the headmaster’s expression to change repeatedly.
"Does the headmaster find this opportune for action now?"
The Profound Truth Immortal Venerable asked straightforwardly:
"When do we exterminate the demons?"
"Immediately."
"Good!"
Upon finishing this sentence, the headmaster suddenly changed the topic and asked:
"Since you have achieved such cultivation success, following the sect’s rules, I will choose an auspicious day to pass the position of headmaster to you."
Su Yu quickly waved his hand in refusal and said:
"Disciple still needs to continue cultivating and may not have the time. Please continue to hold the position of headmaster until I return with further achievements to share the responsibility."
The Profound Truth Immortal Venerable pondered for a moment, nodded, and said:
"Very well!"
Subsequently, both parties deliberated on their next moves, with the headmaster providing details about their sect, the Blood Demon Hall, and the Yin Yang Demon Sect.
Through the headmaster’s explanations, Su Yu gained an understanding of their sect and the Blood Demon Hall and Yin Yang Demon Sect’s top-level combat strength, as well as that of the five main sects in the Blue Mountain Archipelago.
Among the five major sects in Blue Mountain, the Xuanzhen Immortal Sect in the central region is the strongest, with three Celestial Immortals: the headmaster, the Supreme Elder, and the Second Supreme Elder.
However, the Supreme Elder is nearing the end of his lifespan and has been in seclusion.
The Second Supreme Elder is slightly younger but has been training outside and only returns once every thousand years; the last return was over three hundred years ago, and their whereabouts are unknown now.
Even though there are emergency contact methods within the sect, it is not possible to return in the short term.
The headmaster mentioned that the flat peaches brought by Su Yu could greatly extend one’s lifespan, potentially alleviating the Supreme Elder’s life depletion from his youth and allowing him to emerge from seclusion to defend the sect for another thousand years.
Both the Blood Demon Hall and the Yin Yang Demon Sect have two Celestial Immortals, but their whereabouts are uncertain and it’s unclear if they are in the sect.
The Nine Heavens Sword Sect has only one Celestial Immortal, but the Sword Immortal’s combat strength is formidable.
The Brahma Heaven Buddhist Sect possesses two Celestial Immortal-level Arhats.
Additionally, there are two Celestial Immortal loose cultivators in Blue Mountain: the ruler of the neutral city, Yuan City, and a loose cultivator named Daoist Blue Trace, whose whereabouts are also uncertain within Blue Mountain.
"Moreover, the mountain gates of the several sects are protected by formidable fifth-tier Sect Defense Arrays."
"Each sect also possesses one or two immortal artifacts to protect the sect. Combined with the Sect Defense Array and Immortals stationed there, even ten Celestial Immortals would find it hard to breach them."
The headmaster said in a deep voice:
"With such defenses, we might struggle to breach their mountain gates. I suggest we suppress the two factions and seize most of their territory instead."
"A fifth-tier array? Immortal artifacts?"
Su Yu chuckled softly, bowed towards the headmaster, and confidently said:
"Rest assured, headmaster, this disciple has the capability to break through the Sect Defense Arrays of the two sects."
The Profound Truth Immortal Venerable appeared astonished and asked earnestly:
"How confident are you?"
"Absolutely confident!"
The Profound Truth Immortal Venerable was thoroughly amazed. Su Yu, seeing this, bowed again and proclaimed loudly:
"I urge the headmaster to gather all the sect’s elders and hall masters, and mobilize the entire sect to launch a campaign to exterminate the demonic sects."
The Profound Truth Immortal Venerable took a deep breath and nodded slowly.
Being decisive and swift, the Immortal Venerable issued orders within an hour, convening all the upper echelons of the sect for a meeting.
The head of every main and branch line, hall masters, holders of the Dao titles, core disciples, and so on were all gathered within the Profound Truth Cave Heaven.
At the Hall of Inquiry, Wan Yu and some friendly core disciples from the sect saw Su Yu from afar. They all looked slightly surprised, feeling something was off about Su Yu, but being less than Golden Core, they couldn’t discern Su Yu’s true cultivation level.
A few people approached, clasped their hands in salute, and Wan Yu curiously asked:
"Does Mr. Su know why the headmaster has summoned everyone today?"
Su Yu smiled and said:
"You’ll soon find out."
Wan Yu didn’t think much of it and shifted the conversation, asking:
"I heard that the alliance opposing Thousand Star Hall attacked recently and wiped out one of your branches. How are you planning to respond?"
Su Yu said solemnly:
"I will repay those who hurt me tenfold. Old grudges and new grievances, I will settle them all this time and uproot the alliance opposing Thousand Star Hall."
"Are you planning to go to full-scale war with them?"
"Yes."
"Hmm..."
Wan Yu said with a serious expression:
"Mr. Su, you know, the main force of the opposition alliance is from the two major Demon Sects of the south. At least twenty core disciples from the two sects are involved, and with the covert support from other forces, your society might struggle against them."
Su Yu smiled slightly:
"Of course, I know!"
"Then you?"
Su Yu did not answer directly, just patted his shoulder and said:
"No rush, you’ll know soon."
After speaking, he turned and walked toward the top position, where the headmaster had arrived. Beside him stood an incredibly elderly figure with white hair and beard. Su Yu approached and paid respect as a disciple to both of them.
Wan Yu was still puzzled by Su Yu’s words when he heard a stifled gasp beside him. He immediately looked up, just as he saw Su Yu standing alongside the Profound Truth Immortal Venerable and the Supreme Elder.
"Gasp!"
They were shocked not by Su Yu standing alongside the headmaster, but by the fact that the aura exuded by the three individuals was remarkably equivalent at that moment.
"This...this..."
Another core disciple, Liu Tianxin, rubbed his face hard, filled with disbelief:
"Am I seeing things, or does Su Daozi’s aura feel no weaker than the headmaster’s?"
