Chapter 746: Two Moons
Within a few days, an astonishing news suddenly came out of the Cloud Desolate Continent, the Dark Moon Sect and the Xiyue Sect, one south and one north, echoed each other from afar, announcing a joint alliance and establishing the Double Moon Alliance.
Mobei had already been swept away by the Xiyue Sect, so there was no big reaction to this, and the islands of the East China Sea also learned the news from Yuan Ming in advance, although there was some small dissatisfaction, but after all, there was no movement.
The most affected are naturally the Central Plains and southern Xinjiang.
How could they not understand the significance of the establishment of the Double Moon Alliance, and they all felt that the Cloud Desolate Continent, which had just returned to calm, was surging again, and some waves were treacherous.
The situation in southern Xinjiang is more complicated, the differences between the northern and southern regions are very large, and the differences within the various sects are not small, some want to take refuge in the Central Plains and ask Changchun Guan for help, and some secretly contact the Shuangyue Alliance.
There are also some sects riding on the wall, watching left and right, wanting to wait for the wind to come.
However, what is surprising is that when the Double Moon Alliance was first established, they did not make any moves, they seemed to have just formed an alliance, and some sects naively thought that they had settled down.
After Changchun Guan was driven out of the East China Sea by Yuan Ming by Mingquan Ancestor and returned to the sect, he already knew that it was impossible for the two of them to get along in peace, so he naturally took advantage of this time to actively prepare for war.
It's just that it didn't take long for the large-scale expansion of Changchun Temple to attract strong dissatisfaction from the monks of the Central Plains.
From the beginning of their good seduction, to the coercion and temptation in the future, and then to the direct forcible annexation, the means are getting tougher and tougher, and while their strength is recovering step by step, their reputation is also collapsing little by little.
In addition to the reason why Changchun Guan's strength is getting stronger and stronger, so that some people get carried away, it is also indispensable for the shadows arranged by the Double Moon Alliance to spread the news in secret.
Just a few months later, not only was everyone in the Central Plains in danger, but those sects in the southern Xinjiang that originally wanted to take refuge in Changchun Temple also changed their minds and began to secretly contact the Shuangyue Alliance.
Until the southern part of the Central Plains, a kendo sect near the southern Xinjiang, because of dissatisfaction with the forcible annexation of Changchun Temple, rose up to resist to no avail, and was directly wiped out, the dislike of large and small sects in the Central Plains for Changchun Concept reached its peak.
By the time Changchun Guan reacted and planned to slow down the progress and adopt the Huairou policy, it was too late.
In the Central Plains, southern Xinjiang, Mobei and the East China Sea, all kinds of negative news about the Changchun concept have emerged at the same time, not only the immortal sect on the mountain, but also the ordinary market has storytellers, such as the "sword sect extermination case" Some disasters.
Some of these news were true and false, and they were recited extremely quickly, and it didn't take long for them to sweep through the entire Cloud Desolate Continent.
It was only at this time that the Shuangyue Alliance released a "Discussion of Changchun Guan", in which it detailed the evil deeds of Changchunguan's various rampant conquests and extrocities, pointed out that they, as the leaders of the righteous path, were incompetent in dealing with the Wuyue Sect in the past, and called on the world's heroes to chase them together.
At the same time, Yuan Ming and Xiying, as the leaders of the Double Moon Alliance, in the previous Wuyue Sect disaster, exterminated the Wuyue God and the Demon Clan's bloody deeds, turned the tide and destroyed the Boundary Breaking Void Array, and saved the Cloud Desolate Continent, which also began to spread quietly.
For a time, the prestige of the Double Moon Alliance reached its peak, while Changchun Guan fell to the bottom.
After realizing the Changchun Concept, he remembered that he wanted to maintain the advantage of the public opinion position, so he began to hype that the Double Moon Alliance was an evil sect like the Wuyue Sect, and the ultimate goal was to destroy the entire Cloud Desolate Continent.
It's just that because what they did in the early stage has already caused the anger of the heavens and people, and the achievements made by the Stygian Moon Sect in the previous conspiracy to destroy the Witch Moon Sect, no one wants to believe such slanderous words.
Before the two sides officially started the war, there were a large number of small sects in the northern part of the Central Plains, which took the lead in joining the camp of the Double Moon Alliance.
Sunset's strategic steps were very steady, and he didn't force these sects to change their banners at the beginning, and still retained their sects, not only giving them a lot of material support, but also sharing some of the subtle exercises of the Wuyue Sect in the past.
At first, these sects were cautious, for fear that there would be some conspiracy in this, but after a period of contact, they found that the Double Moon Alliance did not force them to do anything.
Even after a while, Sunset Shadow would personally open the altar to teach the Fa and explain to them the problems of cultivation.
Slowly, the monks in these sects began to habitually cultivate and pray together with the disciples of the Double Moon Alliance, and unconsciously transformed into the disciples of the Stygian Moon God and the Evening Moon God.
When the real war began, they became the hardest working people.
This is not because of what kind of divine soul means Xiying has used to control it, but because she has set many more precious pills and magic weapons, as well as more advanced cultivation techniques, as meritorious rewards.
By building up merit in the conquest, they can exchange it for these treasures that they could not have hoped for in the past.
Among them, the "Blood Source Pill" refined by the Double Moon Alliance is the most famous, because this thing can best enhance the power of the monk's qi and blood, and it is especially precious for physical cultivation.
In exchange for this limited number of "Blood Source Pills", many monks were particularly fierce in battle.
The war is going well in the north, but it is relatively slow in the south.
Because the combat power in the south of the Double Moon Alliance is mainly the people from the East China Sea Islands, they want to enter the Central Plains, and there is a southern frontier in between.
As for southern Xinjiang, the strategy formulated by Sunset Shadow is to try to close the peace talks, and then conquer it by force as a last resort.
The initial advancement was indeed as Sunset had guessed, and it was not smooth, and many Southern Xinjiang sects were reluctant to even use the Dao to let the Stygian Moon Sect monks go north.
Ulu remembered Yuan Ming's advice and tried not to kill, but he didn't think that a few small and medium-sized sects would take the initiative to attack them after getting the promise of Changchun Guan.
The result, of course, was a big defeat and returned, and he was killed without leaving a piece of armor.
In order to establish his authority, Ulu led people to kill all the high-ranking monks in the patriarch hall of these sects and all the high-ranking monks in the ancestral hall, and immediately shocked all the sects that were still making small calculations.
At the same time, the news from Mobei also spread to southern Xinjiang, and under the stimulus of those preferential policies, some sects began to take the initiative to inquire.
Ulu understands the importance of combining grace and power, and has also introduced various incentives.
Just a few months later, all the troubles in southern Xinjiang have been settled.
In this process, Yuan Ming didn't even come forward, and everything went smoothly.
Yuan Ming had been concerned about the changes in the current situation at the beginning, but he found that the whole process was exactly the same as the score of Xiying's pre-deduction, so he continued to practice in retreat with confidence.
Time flashed, and another three months passed.
In the middle of winter, the heavy snow covers the mountain, and the mountain range where the Changchun Temple is located is thousands of miles in circumference, and it is plain.
The two armies of the Shuangyue League, the North Road and the South Road, triumphantly joined forces outside the capital of the Great Jin Kingdom and began to assemble, preparing to launch a final general attack on Changchun Guan.
After half a year of fighting, the combat power of the Double Moon Alliance has increased instead of decreasing, and those sects that joined first have taken the initiative to give up their original sect titles without mandatory requirements, and they all feel honored to be a member of the Double Moon Alliance.
Before the decisive battle, Sunset Shadow entered the capital of the Great Jin Kingdom with some of the monks.
After more than 20 years of cultivation, this city has recovered some of its vitality, but almost all the city was slaughtered back then, although most of the souls of the deceased were taken away by the Wuyue Sect, there are still many lonely souls and wild ghosts remaining.
The whole city is still dead to this day, and the gloomy atmosphere is difficult to dissipate.
The former prince of the Great Jin Dynasty had ascended the throne as the new emperor, and all the civil and military officials persuaded him to move the capital elsewhere, but he was vetoed by him who was still childish at the time.
He firmly believed that his father and even his grandfather had not given up the capital, and now that the disaster of the Witch Moon Cult had passed, it was impossible for him to give up here.
However, after the disaster of the Wuyue Sect, the strength of the Great Jin Dynasty declined sharply, and part of the land had been lost and occupied by foreign countries.
They also asked their ally Changchun Guan for help, but unfortunately Changchun Guan was busy recovering his strength and had no time to take care of it, and he didn't even do a magic thing for the lonely souls in the capital of the Great Jin Kingdom.
And Sunset Shadow brought people into the city this time, just for this matter.
After consulting with the Great Jin Dynasty, they united and held a Luo Tian Jiao at the Temple of Heaven in the Great Jin Temple, surpassing the remaining souls in the city.
At the moment when the entire country was completed in Luo Tian Dajiao, a light spirit wind blew through every corner of this city, as if all the gloom and filth had been swept away.
The people living in the city, although they could not see the vision of heaven and earth, could also feel that the air around them had become a little fresher, and the dark clouds that had been pressing on the city for a long time seemed to have faded and dissipated.
From the initial anxiety of the Great Jin Dynasty to the final thanksgiving, His Majesty the Emperor finally personally led hundreds of civil and military officials to send Xiying and others out of the city.
In fact, this is not the first time that the Bilunar Alliance has done such a thing.
On their way south, every city they came across that had experienced the slaughter of a city would be held with a transcendent ceremony, regardless of whether there were still living people in the city.
After leaving a part of the monks who were good at the formation to help repair the magic array of the city wall of the capital of the Great Jin Kingdom, the army marched again and went straight to Changchunguan.
Changchun Guan's previous several attempts to resist ended in failure, and he finally had to retreat to the sect.
Those sects they contacted and wooed, at the last moment, either couldn't shirk it, or they were on the verge of rebellion, and in the end, they were left alone to fight against the growing Double Moon Alliance.
Outside the Changchun Temple, Tianjizi stood in the air, and behind him stood a group of elders in the door.
The huge and complex Sect Protector Array had already been opened, and the repaired and enhanced magic array was both offensive and defensive, protecting the entire sect like an iron bucket.
Even at this time, the Changchun Guan monks still firmly believed that under the leadership of Tianjizi, the great power of the Returning to the Void Period, and backed by the great array of the sect, they would definitely be able to turn defeat into victory and defeat the Shuangyue Alliance.
The next big battle lasted six days and seven nights.
The fierceness of the battle was comparable to the previous decisive battle with the Witch Moon Cult.
Sunset didn't know what to do, so she summoned King Kong and Huazhi to help in the battle, and she took the two of them and Uru, and the four of them joined forces to besiege Tianjizi.
In the end, it took six full days to exhaust it and die in battle.
Tianjizi's soul was taken away by the Soul Suppression Pot, and the body was sealed in the blood warrior armor.
Perhaps, it was not until this moment that he realized that he had made a mistake that he should not have made, and he and Changchun Guan should have had a better choice, but they were lost in their hearts by the desire of the moment and made a big mistake.
