The antidote’s effects were imdiate.
Zhang Lingshui had taken it not long ago, and the once intermittent aura gradually stabilized.
Her face was still deathly pale like frost, showing no trace of blood, but so vitality appeared in her once lifeless eyes.
This ant her life was saved!
Zhang Lingshui slowly opened her weakened eyes, and upon seeing Li Chen, felt as if she were dreaming.
Is this the fabled hell?
But why is Master here too? Could it be that excessive longing has led to hallucinations?
Thinking that she would experience hallucinations even in hell, Zhang Lingshui couldn’t help but find it amusing.
Seeing Zhang Lingshui suddenly laughing to herself, Little Demon Immortal couldn’t help but blink.
"Brother Li Chen, what’s wrong with her? Could her brain be broken?"
Upon hearing the words of Little Demon Immortal, Li Chen couldn’t help but slightly furrow his brows.
Staring closely at Zhang Lingshui’s eyes, he asked, "Lingshui, are you alright?"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Zhang Lingshui’s spirit couldn’t help but be stirred, her already large eyes further widened into full rounds.
After a mont of silence, she began to speak incoherently with excitent.
"Master, is it really you?"
Li Chen, seeing she still recognized him, slightly let out a breath of relief.
"Yes, it’s !"
As he spoke, he saw Zhang Lingshui’s body seemingly about to fall and hurriedly stepped forward to support her.
The close contact allowed Zhang Lingshui to feel the warmth from Li Chen’s palm, her spirit rising again in ecstasy.
"Master, is it really you? I’m not dead?"
Li Chen smiled and said, "Silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about? Of course, you’re not dead!"
Confirming that she hadn’t hallucinated, hadn’t died, and the figure before her was indeed her long-awaited Master, Zhang Lingshui couldn’t help but weep for joy.
After a while, she struggled to get up, knelt at Li Chen’s feet, and tearfully declared:
"Master, I’m sorry. The Jiuzhou branch of Star Pavilion was destroyed, and Brother Huo Yun also self-destructed to save and died..."
After listening to Zhang Lingshui’s halting account, Li Chen nodded without any expression.
"It’s not your fault; get up quickly!"
Seeing this, Little Demon Immortal quickly helped Zhang Lingshui up.
Then, the three of them left the depths of the forbidden abyss together.
With the destruction of the Jiuzhou branch of Star Pavilion, reconstruction efforts were thus brought to the agenda.
After this disaster, Li Chen clearly understood that Star Pavilion’s greatest weakness since its developnt was the lack of Great Power Experts aside from himself.
Whether it was Fire Cloud Ancestor or Zhang Lingshui, their cultivation was not high. Especially Zhang Lingshui, who is still rely at the Golden Core Late Stage.
To let the two of them guard the Jiuzhou branch of Star Pavilion, such an important place.
If he were absent, encountering problems would rely be a matter of ti.
Not only was the Jiuzhou branch like this, but the Barbaric that Lian Hongshang guarded also suffered from similar drawbacks.
This ti, if not for the assistance of the Demon Clan and his tily return, the Azure Dragon Tribe may have already been wiped out.
However, Li Chen couldn’t think of any solution for this problem in the short term.
After all, Star Pavilion’s rise was too short, its foundation too shallow, this kind of shortcoming wasn’t sothing that could be resolved overnight.
After pondering briefly, Li Chen decided to follow the thod of the Greedy Wolf Star, gathering all major forces in Jiuzhou to form a super alliance.
In this way, Star Pavilion could leverage this, and other forces could obtain the cultivation resources they desired through Star Pavilion.
Furthermore, this could also increase cohesion and resist invasions from other cosmic forces.
Thinking of this, Li Chen didn’t hesitate at all and imdiately set about preparing for the matter.
Since ten years ago, when Li Chen and Jian Wuheng successively caused storms of blood in Jiuzhou, leading to the dissolution of True Immortal Alliance, the power dynamics in Jiuzhou subsequently fell apart.
The previous Ten Great Heavenly Sects of Jiuzhou, now Heavenly Thunder Sect and Heavenly Sword Mountain, have basically been completely destroyed.
Green Cloud Sect and Wanli Sect, after losing their respective Sect Leaders, saw internal forces fighting over the Sect Leader position, resulting in a sudden reduction in influence, now only remaining second-rate sects.
Sect Leader Jio Changsheng of Heavenly Dao Academy was severely injured by Jian Wuheng and shortly after passed away.
Fortunately, before his death, he chose his prized disciple Weisheng to succeed him at Heavenly Dao Academy, thus avoiding internal strife like Wanli Sect and Green Cloud Sect.
However, Weisheng’s youth left his influence far less than that of his master Jio Changsheng.
Moreover, when Jian Wuheng challenged Heavenly Dao Academy in those years, he injured thousands of elite disciples, heavily diminishing the academy’s strength.
Thus, even with Weisheng inheriting his master’s legacy, it was difficult to change the harsh reality of Heavenly Dao Academy’s decline.
The Heavenly Extre Sects barely maintaining their strength were Penglai Pavilion, Cloud Sea Immortal Sect, Moon God Palace, Sanskrit Temple, and Dragon Ascending Valley.
And these five families also faced considerable shock and influence in the turmoil a decade ago.
As one declines, another prospers!
The weakening of the leading forces of the righteous path was a godsend for the demon path.
The previously suppressed demon forces erged like bamboo shoots after rain.
The three most powerful among them were Old Demon Ouyang’s Heavenly Demon Sect, Blood Sword Scholar’s Blood Sword Sect, and Heixi Taoist’s Black Heart Cave.
In addition, Jian Hee rebuilt the True Immortal Alliance with remnants of Heavenly Sword Mountain as its core.
However, his True Immortal Alliance was not recognized by the major forces of the righteous path.
Only Green Cloud Sect and Wanli Sect, already reduced to second-rate sects, were involved with it.
Heavenly Dao Academy, despite its weakened strength, refused to associate with the wicked.
Cloud Sea Immortal Sect, Moon God Palace, and Dragon Ascending Valley had long ford a defensive alliance with Star Pavilion.
Li Chen only needs to visit Penglai Pavilion, Sanskrit Temple, and Heavenly Dao Academy.
Penglai Pavilion had no objections, Sanskrit Temple and Heavenly Dao Academy, though unwilling to get involved, agreed under the circumstances.
Thus, Penglai Pavilion, Sanskrit Temple, Cloud Sea Immortal Sect, Dragon Ascending Valley, Moon God Palace, Heavenly Dao Academy, and Star Pavilion ford an alliance, nad Jiuzhou Alliance!
Li Chen served as the first Alliance Hierarch of Jiuzhou Alliance and took out the Jiuzhou Divine Tripod as an emblematic treasure.
New officials bring three fires!
Li Chen was no exception!
His first task was to integrate various forces to launch a comprehensive campaign against the demon forces like Heavenly Demon Sect.
anwhile, Lian Hongshang also led the Azure Dragon Tribe to prepare for the siege of the remnants of the Shaman Tribe, Southern Barbarian Tribe, and Teng Snake Tribe.
Little Demon Immortal also returned to the Demon Clan, leading an army of 200,000 to cooperate with the Azure Dragon Tribe and Jiuzhou Alliance to besiege hostile forces...
