Chapter 169 Big victory!

The morale of the righteous disciples was greatly boosted, and they killed indiscriminately. Especially when the Taishan Sect heard that fellow righteous disciples were coming to help, the entire sect came out in full force to kill the members of the Demon Sect, and finally the final word was decided, and victory was secured!
The fighting lasted until dawn, and the fierce battle finally came to an end. The members of the Demon Cult were either killed or wounded. Some escaped in the dark, and some were captured. More than 2,000 people were killed.

However, many disciples of the orthodox sect were also injured. Chen Zichi and his four companions fought for the entire night. At dawn, he immediately became a doctor and continued to rescue the injured disciples.

Xin Zhen and Fang Sheng and others gathered together to discuss the next plan. Fang Sheng and others disagreed with Xin Zhen's resignation.

Fang Sheng said: "Killing and dispersing the members of the Demon Cult who are besieging Taishan Sect is just the beginning. The Demon Cult will not give up. We must continue to pursue the victory. Sect Leader Xin, I think you still have to continue to take charge of the overall situation and suppress the arrogance of the Demon Cult. Wait until this battle is completely over, then you can unload this heavy burden!"

Fang Sheng's speech immediately received the support of the leaders of various sects. Xin Zhen fought beautifully in this battle. Although many righteous disciples were killed or injured, compared to the more than 2,000 members of the Demon Sect who disappeared into thin air, this battle could be considered a great victory!
Now the battle between good and evil is just the beginning. If all sects return to the mountain gate, they are far away from each other and may be defeated one by one by the Demon Cult. At that time, the sect will be in danger of being overthrown.

It would be better to take advantage of the fact that everyone is gathered together and with the military master like Xin Zhen leading the way, it is the right time to take advantage of the opportunity to greatly weaken the Demon Cult. By then, the situation of the righteous path being weak for decades will be reversed and the righteous path will flourish!

Xin Zhen did not refuse this. He also had this concern. Now the Huashan Sword Sect is still in the development stage, and the four hundred disciples are not yet able to support the sect. If they are attacked by the Demon Cult, the entire sect will be overthrown.

Now that we have so many people at hand, we should fight hard against the Demon Cult and force them back to Black Wood Cliff. By then, the vacant sphere of influence will be occupied by the Fuwei Escort Agency, and the situation of Huashan Sword Sect will be officially opened up!
Thinking of this, Xin Zhen nodded and said, "That is indeed the truth. Since everyone trusts me, I have no choice but to do it!"

All the sect leaders were delighted to hear this, except for the brothers Zuo Lengchan and Fei Bin, whose expressions were not too good.

Naturally, their faces were not in a good mood. This battle completely established Xin Zhen's prestige, not only within the Five Mountains Sword Sect, but also in the entire martial arts world.

This means that even within the Five Mountains Sword Sect, Xin Zhen’s prestige will surpass Zuo Lengchan!

Now the Hengshan Sect, Huashan Qi Sect, Hengshan Sect and Taishan Sect all admire Xin Zhen very much. The Hengshan Sect and Huashan Qi Sect are firmly on Xin Zhen's side. When the time comes for the leader of the Five Mountains Sword Sects to be elected again, will Zuo Lengchan be able to continue to suppress the leaders of the four major sects and be re-elected?
I'm afraid it's very difficult.

Master Zuo Lengchan and his brother thought so, but Xin Zhen's mind would not be limited to the Five Mountains Sword Sect. His current focus was already on the overall situation.

Xin Zhen asked Jie Feng to provide information about the various branches and halls of the Demon Cult.

The Beggars' Sect is the largest gang in the world. At its peak, it had over a million members. Although it is not at its peak now, it still has tens of thousands of members.

Moreover, they are scattered all over the country. Although their strength is dispersed and difficult to gather in times of emergency, they are among the best in terms of information and ears.

As expected, Jie Feng provided all the information about the various branches of the Demon Cult, and said with a smile, "In terms of understanding the Demon Cult, our Beggars' Sect is number one. Usually, it is our Beggars' Sect that has the most friction with the members of the Demon Cult. We have fought countless times over the past hundred years, and we are quite familiar with each other."

Xin Zhen gathered intelligence from various sources, analyzed it, and began to deploy his troops. Xin Zhen first broke up the group into smaller units, dispersed the various factions, hid during the day and moved out at night, and evacuated the troops from Shandong. Then, based on the integrated information, Xin Zhen sent out teams led by the leaders of each faction to wipe out the sect's halls.

The teams sent by Xin Zhen are all targeted, with overwhelming numbers and high-end force. This ensures that the teams sent to annihilate have absolute advantages. If they encounter a stronger enemy, they will let nearby teams join forces to annihilate them together!

Moreover, because the team has already left the encirclement of Shandong, they can also seek help from local sects in the process of annihilating the gangs in various places, which greatly increases their strength.

Under the unified command of Xin Zhen, the major orthodox sects for the first time set the goal of annihilating the local branches of the evil cult, and launched a massive annihilation campaign across the country.

In the past, the righteous path was weak, not because its power was too weak, but because of the lack of organization.

The Sun-Moon Sect has the unified leadership of Heimu Cliff, the support of various halls, and local gangs under the leadership of the Sun-Moon Sect. Its organization is much stronger than that of the righteous path, so it can suppress the righteous path with its own strength.

But now with Xin Zhen's unified command, the forces of various factions were temporarily integrated to carry out targeted attacks on the forces of the Sun Moon Sect in various locations, which caught the Sun Moon Sect off guard.

Xin Zhen led various factions in the fight for nearly three months and eliminated the power of the Sun Moon Sect in the Central Plains. Heimu Cliff then woke up from his dream and urgently withdrew the members of the Demon Sect from Shandong to support the Central Plains. Xin Zhen got the information, ambushed them along the way, and annihilated most of the members of the Demon Sect.

After this battle, the righteous path wiped out nearly 20,000 members of the Sun and Moon Sect, and the power of the sect suffered a severe blow.

In order to deal with the continued pursuit of the righteous sects, Heimu Cliff immediately took countermeasures and withdrew all the forces of the Sun and Moon Sect back to Heimu Cliff.

Some people suggested going up to Black Wood Cliff and completely eradicating the Demon Cult, but Xin Zhen disagreed. Black Wood Cliff was in a steep terrain, and the Sun Moon Cult was defending the high ground. The righteous sects had no chance to attack at all, and it would only increase casualties.

Moreover, in Xin Zhen's opinion, fighting to this extent was enough. After this battle, the Sun Moon Sect would probably have to lie dormant for a long time.

Moreover, the Sun-Moon Divine Sect is likely to be in chaos internally.

During the process of Xin Zhen leading the annihilation of the Sun and Moon Sect, Ren Woxing's figure appeared and disappeared. Although he had never been seen face to face, Ren Woxing had already been gathering the strength of the sect members, and quite a few of them had followed him.

This time, all the followers of the Black Wood Cliff have been gathered back, and these followers will also be gathered back. What will happen on the Black Wood Cliff at that time is not something Xin Zhen can know.

The Sun-Moon Divine Cult retreated back to the Black Wood Cliff, and this spectacular battle between good and evil officially came to an end. Nearly a year had passed since the Taishan Sect came down the mountain for help.
