I Can Travel between Two Worlds-Chapter 215 - 2: Three Years of Upheaval, Righteous Alliance!

Chapter 215: Chapter 2: Three Years of Upheaval, Righteous Alliance!

"Fortunately, at the critical moment, several Peak Masters of the Changchun Sect arrived... but they managed to rescue only a dozen or so people."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen furrowed his brows even tighter.

Li Zhenqian, Jiang Liqian, and even Wan Xun were among those cultivators...

"I wonder, are they still alive..." Lin Chen silently pondered.

"During that battle, the Elder of Artifact Peak from Changchun Sect died, and the arrogance of the four major Demon Sects grew even wilder..."

"Later, the Ghost-Eyed Old Monster condensed a Nine Revolutions Golden Core and returned to the Golden Core Stage, instantly becoming a powerful force in Qing State. The Demon Sect rampantly pillaged everywhere, leading to the destruction of many small cultivation sects and clans..."

"Until a year ago, when the Demon Sect launched a full-scale attack on the Spirit Beast Sect. Unable to withstand, the Supreme Elder of the Spirit Beast Sect died, and barely one in a hundred disciples escaped. The four major Demon Sects occupied the territory of the Spirit Beast Sect and launched a comprehensive assault on the three major cultivation sects..."

At this news, Lin Chen’s heart sank.

It was indeed as those villagers said, the Spirit Beast Sect, which had stood for a thousand years, was destroyed overnight!

It must be known, within a radius of ten thousand miles, the Righteous sects are epitomized by three.

Changchun Sect, Spirit Beast Sect, and Celestial Pill Sect.

For hundreds of years, the forces of the Orthodox and Demonic Party have been evenly matched, constantly involved in overt and covert struggles, yet never experiencing extermination.

But now that the Spirit Beast Sect has fallen, the balance of power between the Orthodox and Demonic Party is completely disrupted.

With only Changchun Sect and Celestial Pill Sect, they are far from being able to contend with the four major Demon Sects...

Just as Lin Chen thought in his heart, Shao Wenmin sighed and said:

"Alas, with the collapse of the Spirit Beast Sect, the four major Demon Sects have fully gained the upper hand..."

"It’s not just Changchun Sect and Celestial Pill Sect that suffered, the greatest losses are still with those small cultivation clans..."

"Forced by circumstances, Changchun Sect, Celestial Pill Sect, and some surviving disciples of the Spirit Beast Sect announced an alliance, forming the Righteous Alliance!"

"All Qing State cultivators, whether from loose cultivation backgrounds or cultivation clans, can join the Righteous Alliance to jointly resist the Demon Path..."

"The Righteous Alliance announced its establishment, and cultivation clans from within Yanlai Country responded in droves, including those from Purple Smoke Country and Fog Country... Cultivation forces from surrounding countries also participated."

"Later, the Righteous Alliance dispatched cultivators to guard various places, engaging in a tug-of-war with the Demon Sect in the northern part of Purple Smoke Country..."

"This battle lasted for a whole year... Fortunately, the Demon-Suppressing Temple in Qing State also sent some martial monks to subdue demons, along with some manpower from other Righteous forces within Qing State, preventing the Demon Path from completely ravaging Purple Smoke Country..."

After talking for a long time, Lin Chen and Shao Wenmin finally got a grasp of the current situation in Qing State.

They roughly understood the power dynamics between the Righteous Alliance and the Demon Sect...

In short, now that the Orthodox and Demonic Party are in full-scale war, all cultivators within a radius of ten thousand miles have joined the battlefield.

Regardless of whether they are loose cultivators or sect forces, they are all in a wartime state...

However, the Demon Sect had long prepared, even though the Righteous Alliance has connected many forces, it still finds itself at a disadvantage.

After listening to everything, Lin Chen sighed and said:

"Alas, I didn’t expect that during the short three years I was in closed-door cultivation, such major events would happen..."

Shao Wenmin saw Lin Chen’s words carried a righteous spirit and thus ventured to say:

"Senior Xu, although Xinliang City is not on the frontline, it is still an important city in the frontlines, yet now it relies solely on me, a mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator, for defense..."

"I wonder if Senior could join the Righteous Alliance and guard Xinliang City..."

Shao Wenmin mentioned Biao and saw Lin Chen’s calm expression, quickly adding:

"Rest assured, senior, it’s merely borrowing your name to intimidate small fry. If you truly encounter an unbeatable enemy, you can flee."

"Moreover, guarding a city contributes greatly and can earn numerous cultivation resources..."

After speaking, Shao Wenmin cautiously looked at Lin Chen, fearing he would upset him.

In his view, a loose cultivator like Lin Chen was most averse to being constrained.

Lin Chen frowned slightly, then relaxed and sighed:

"Alas, I too am inclined to join the Righteous Alliance, resisting the Demon Path together!"

"But within a short period of three years, such major events have transpired, and I am still unaware of the current situation of some friends and family..."

"Now I am deeply concerned, I just want to know their situation... Once I understand, I will come to guard the city, how about that?"

Upon hearing this, Shao Wenmin sighed and only nodded:

"If that’s the case, then I’ll first give Senior the Righteous Alliance token... Once senior has handled his affairs, please be sure to return!"

Lin Chen nodded in agreement, inwardly thinking:

"This Righteous Alliance is powerful, rejecting outright is unwise... I will return to Yanlai Realm first to see and then make plans."

"At worst, I’ll hide this Xu Shi identity for a while..."

Thinking thus far, Lin Chen prepared to bid farewell with a bow.

Yet just then, the ground suddenly shook violently.

Then, the rolling sound of drums swept in like a flood...

"Boom! Boom Boom!"

After the series of drum sounds ended, Shao Wenmin’s face changed drastically, tremulously saying:

"Sen-Senior might have to stay... Th-They have surprisingly come to attack!"

As he spoke, Shao Wenmin took out a Sound Transmission Jade Scroll to quickly report the city’s situation, then issued orders to gather Righteous Alliance cultivators in the city.

Finally, he came to Lin Chen, speaking genuinely:

"Senior, if Xinliang City is in danger, could you assist?"

He gritted his teeth and said:

"Rest assured, senior won’t be helping for free. I am willing to represent the Righteous Alliance and offer fifty thousand Spirit Stones to senior..."

Lin Chen raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, sighing inwardly.

"Alas, I just came out of the ruins, and now I’m faced with this misfortune... I don’t know if it’s me who’s unlucky or the Demon Path invading the city?"

"However, fifty thousand Spirit Stones isn’t a small sum. The daily cultivation cost increases exponentially after Core Formation..."

"Let’s first see the situation before deciding whether to intervene."

Thinking along these lines, Lin Chen calmly said:

"Don’t panic, organize your personnel first, and I will first assess the situation..."
