After Lu Yuan foiled Zhuang Yangbing’s plan, the steady Zhuang Yangbing did not dare to continue with the smuggling plan in the following days.
The Xueyang Sect’s goal of nurturing war through war had failed.
After the plan failed, everything returned to normal.
Cultivators fought in the Full Moon Mountain Range while mortals fought in the mortal world.
This way, the danger faced by Lu Yuan in Moon Mountain Pass was reduced drastically.
He had brought many practitioners from the Devil Slayers Division with him.
As a result, even though the cultivators in Moon Mountain Pass were not as numerous as those of the Xueyang Sect, by relying on the defensive arrays on the Moon Mountain Pass, they could still put up a fight with the other party.
However, just because nothing happened here, it did not mean that nothing happened to the other empires.
Among the countries controlled by the five righteous sects, aside from the Great Wu Kingdom where everyone practiced martial arts, the rest were more or less invaded.
Amongst the five sects, the Yuchan Sect suffered the most severe damage.
This was because these guys who practiced beast taming didn’t expect to encounter such a situation where the enemy would directly attack a mortal country. Hence, they were insufficiently prepared.
In the end, after one-third of their territory and the population were sacrificed, the Core Formation Stage elders of the Yuchan Sect took action and barely managed to drive the enemy out.
In reality, if Core Formation Stage elders were involved, the intensity of the battle would rise to another level.
Perhaps due to the fact that they were still unprepared for an all-out battle, the Yuchan Sect chose to swallow this loss in silence. They did not assign any Core Formation Stage elders to lead teams to retaliate against the devil cultivators.

If they suffered this loss silently, where would they put their faces?
Therefore, the furious Yuchan Sect sent out nearly half of their Foundation Establishment cultivators to the Full Moon Mountain Range, putting on a show of going all out.
As for the other sects that did not suffer too much losses, they obviously did not want to get involved, so they chose to not allow in the footsteps of the Yuchan Sect.
At this moment, the devilish sects launched a retaliatory attack.
The reason why the Yuchan Sect was so crazy was obviously due to their heavy losses, so they were prepared to stake everything in this great battle between the righteous and devilish sects to see if they could recover their losses.
After all, the death of a third of the population had a profound impact on the sect.
This meant that in the future, the number of new disciples they could recruit would be reduced by a third.
Talent played an important role in one’s cultivation, and a disciple with outstanding talent could even be comparable to 10 or even 100 ordinary disciples. However, coming across a genius disciple was a matter of probability.
The more disciples they could recruit, the greater the chances of a genius disciple appearing.
The probability of a genius disciple appearing in the Yuchan Sect in the future was obviously much smaller than that of other sects.
However, if they could obtain enough benefits in this great war between the righteous and devilish sects, they would be able to recoup their losses or even make a huge profit.
This was because this war was actually just a fight for resources.
They had set the battlefield of the cultivators at the Full Moon Mountain Range not simply because they did not want their battle to affect the mortals, but also because there were many treasures that cultivators coveted here.
There was another name for the Full Moon Mountain Range, the Full Moon Demonic Kingdom.
The so-called Full Moon Mountain Range was actually a place that was about the same size as the righteous way and the devilish way’s territories.
The Full Moon Mountain Range, the devilish way territory, and the righteous way territory divided the map into three parts.
However, for some reason, the Full Moon Mountain Range was shrouded in a huge white fog all year round.
Not only would the white fog restrict the spiritual sense of cultivators, but it would also suppress their cultivation.
The stronger the cultivator, the stronger the suppression acting on them was.
During the Tidal Moon that happened once every 300 years, the white fog around the Full Moon Mountain Range would gradually weaken under the moonlight.
The entire Tidal Moon was divided into two periods, one was the half-moon period, and the other was the full-moon period.
The half-moon period lasted for 20 years, and the full-moon period lasted for five years.
During the full-moon period, the restriction would be weakened to the point where even Core Formation cultivators could enter the mountain range.
However, no one would not wait until the full moon to enter the Full Moon Mountain Range.
Instead, all parties would arrive early to occupy more advantageous positions.
This was because the dangers encountered in each region were different.
After so many expeditions, both the righteous and devilish sides had already mapped out a large portion of the Full Moon Mountain Range.
They were fighting over the fastest ways to enter the core areas and the relatively safe areas of the Full Moon Mountain Range.
Thus, the so-called great battle between the righteous and devilish way was actually a confrontation in advance.
It was a battle to occupy favorable terrain.
That was why both sides deliberately held back their strength. Although they were fighting for positions, they would not really go all out.
At the very least, they had to ensure that there were not too many casualties among the Foundation Establishment and Core Formation cultivators.
As time passed, the latest half-moon period of the Tidal Moon was about to begin.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt that time, the battle would be at its most intense.
However, once they entered the Full Moon Mountain Range, the so-called distinction between righteous and devilish way might not be so obvious.
That was because in such a place, there were natural treasures everywhere.
It wasn’t surprising for fellow disciples to kill each other over rare magic items or celestial herbs.
No one could tell for sure how many cultivators who died during the Tidal Moon died at the hands of their own people.
In such a place, one had to be wary of everyone, even their fellow disciples.
There were only five years left until the nearest Tidal Moon.
The Yuchan Sect had brought half of their disciples over.
Their intentions were very obvious.
They were clearly prepared to stake everything on this expedition and see if they could obtain a large number of celestial herbs or magic items during this Tidal Moon.
Since the Yuchan Sect had started to take action, the other sects naturally did not remain idle either.
Lu Yuan’s Qingyun Sect also began to make arrangements around the Tidal Moon.
The first thing to do was to decide on the first batch of disciples to enter the Full Moon Mountain Range.
These disciples, without exception, had to be the top disciples of the sect.
After they entered, they would need to use their powerful strength to fight for the greatest benefits for the sect.
However, this first batch of disciples also had the highest death rate.
After all, since ancient times, risks and opportunities had always coexisted.
The greater the benefits, the greater the risk..
