Everyone remembered that the Misty Peak had always been a sect that stood at the peak of five continents and didn't want to fight against any sect. However, there was still one missing person who was constantly becoming stronger, becoming stronger on his own, being absolutely righteous and absolutely fair.
At this time, the Misty Peak was just a middle-tier sect. However, in front of millions of devils, they were not afraid at all and bravely stepped forward. Such an aura made everyone's heart tremble.
If others could do it, why couldn't he?
The most important thing was that the Misty Peak had just appeared. Many small sects that were not noticed by the crowd had also started to step forward. The people who appeared were naturally the people who were saved by Bai Chen and the others in the secret array.
The small sects all understood the importance of the big picture. They all knew that it didn't matter if they died, once the entire continent was destroyed, they would never be able to stand out again.
Seeing the battles between the large sects, the Yun and Ding families continued to weaken, even close to death, and the cruel scene of the devils still unceasingly slaughtering the cultivators, the remaining large clans and large sects finally could not hold it in.
They finally understood that they couldn't afford to care about their own interests any longer. If they wanted to calm things down, they could only join the battle and get rid of the crazy, irrational people.
Therefore, although there was a gap between the various big families and sects, when they saw the Misty Peak, when the entire East Star Continent had supported him back then, they did not hesitate at all. Those things that happened back then, everyone naturally put it down.
At this time, some small sects started to talk about this and it was not believed. After several rounds of verification, it was finally accepted by the public.
Through the whispers of the crowd, everyone understood that the people in front of them had long fallen into the Path of Demons. The reason why they could advance so fast was not because of any fortuitous encounters, but because they had secretly become a part of the Path of Demons.
In other words, the legend about the demon race mentioned in the book was not a legend at all, but a true existence. In the great battle a thousand years ago, people had lost so much energy, and even their entire history had been broken.
And what the crowd proudly described as the people defeating the demons, the demons ultimately dejectedly wanted to escape, but were driven out and killed by them, seemed to be a lie as well.
The demons were still alive, and had been reviving bit by bit since a long time ago, allowing a portion of them to fall into the Path of Demon, slowly understanding the human race's events, and also slowly guiding everyone. More and more of them became cultivators who fell into the Path of Demon, and finally allowed themselves to do as they pleased.
In other words, everyone was already under the control of the demons from the beginning, yet they actually followed the demons' ways, helping the demons little by little, and watched as they revived right in front of their own eyes.
This time, they were not dealing with a member of the Five Gods clan, nor were they trying to destroy a member of the clan. Instead, they were trying to weaken the power of the Five Gods clan, and in the end, destroy it in one fell swoop, leaving the Five Gods clan without any divine power. After that, there was no way for the bloodline to continue to exist, and the great sects began to attack each other.
Everyone also knew in their hearts that once the other party's goal was achieved, the current humans and cultivators would all become servants of the Demon race, and eventually fall completely. The idiots would be very sad and let the other party deal with them.
How could the masses tolerate this sort of thing? Although they were no match for him and his forces were still expanding, because the Misty Peak was online, they all started to take their weapons and join the battle.
From a Spirit Apostle who had just started cultivating to a Spirit Commander who was about to break through to a Spirit King, the inertia that everyone had generated in their peaceful lives was instantly extinguished. This level of morale and the killing intent of their opponents, actually allowed them to completely recover their battle qi that they hadn't thought of for a long time.
