A mere Foundation Establishment mid-stage cultivator who survived was truly blessed by fate.
After regaining consciousness, Liang Sheng quietly followed the survivors. Xiang Chen occasionally smiled at Liang Sheng during the journey, but remained silent otherwise.
The joy of victory from the previous great battle against the Demonic Beasts had long faded away. Even when they arrived at the Dan Ding Sect’s mountain gate, the Mountain Protection Formation remained closed, no matter how much they shouted.
Even after Xiang Chen and others repeatedly assured and swore on the Heavenly Dao that the demonic beasts had been defeated and the Sect Alliance had won a great victory, the Dan Ding Sect still did not open the gate.
Seeing this, Xiang Chen and the others did not get angry. After all, the cultivators who were guarding the gate had informed them about a piece of news via the formation.
Dandingzi’s Sect Master’s Life Token had shattered!
Disciples guarding the mountain gates of other sects also received similarly dreadful news – the Life Tokens of all Nascent Soul True Monarchs from the Two Sects and Six Paths had shattered.
Under such circumstances, they had no idea what had happened and could only temporarily treat the returning sect disciples as if they were stranded outside the gates.
It was certain that the disciples inside believed that their fellow sect members might have betrayed the sect and allied with the Demonic Beasts, or had been taken hostage by the Demonic Beasts, trying to trick them into opening the Mountain Protection Formation.
Although they felt uncomfortable, Xiang Chen and the others didn’t pay much attention, as they might have done the same had they been in their shoes.
Things were not very different in other sects, although the situation varied. After a short while, the Golden Core True Persons who were guarding the sects appeared and left the mountain gates.
Their goal was to personally inspect the situation at the Upper Green Sect, the battlefield where the decisive battle had taken place. If the Demonic Beasts were victorious, the place would definitely become their main base before they swept through the Desolate Regions.
Xiang Chen would naturally not stop them. After all, it was a good idea to let them see the truth. Therefore, they temporarily camped outside the gates.
Seven days later.
The Golden Core True Person of the Dan Ding Sect returned, his face a pale shade of defeat. The Nascent Soul masters had collectively perished, but the Demonic Beasts indeed suffered a crushing defeat, and the Demon Saint had fallen.
In the end, the sect had won.
But the cost of such a brutal victory was too great!
The sects naturally contacted each other again to verify the situation they had witnessed. The Two Sects and Six Sects guarding the mountain gates finally confirmed that the beast tide had been wiped out.
However, the Nascent Soul Sect Masters were no more. Now, within the Two Sects and Six Sects, Golden Core True Persons had become the strongest.
A few years ago, who would have imagined such a situation?
In the following year, the management of the Two Sects and Six Sects was rather chaotic. When they finally selected the most suitable Late Gold Core Peak Masters to serve as the Sect Masters, the chaos within the sects gradually subsided.
