He understood the distinction between good and evil, right and wrong, better than anyone else...

As soon as the name "Huayang" was mentioned, the Spirit-Gathering Pagoda whirred into action, unleashing a brilliant swordbeam that struck fiercely towards Yue Mingming.

In a swift motion, Yue Mingming's puppet positioned itself in front of her, but in just a moment, the swordbeam sliced through the puppet, reducing it to fragments.

The puppet let out a piercing roar, and Yue Mingming coughed up a mouthful of stagnant blood. Just as the swordbeam was about to descend upon Yue Mingming, Elder Liu Shulian of the Confucian Sect quickly flew in, wielding his writing brush. With a resounding "ding," he intercepted the attack. Seizing the opportunity, Yuqiong ZhenJun flew over and scooped up Yue Mingming.

"Fu Changling!" Yuqiong ZhenJun exclaimed upon witnessing Fu Changling's fierce sword attack. "What kind of evil and twisted path have you chosen to cultivate?!"

"What? Is it considered an evil and twisted path if you fail to emerge victorious?" Fu Changling retorted with a scoff, "You best keep your arrogant eyes wide open and observe closely. I cultivate nothing but legitimate techniques of the Immortal Sect. It is you who practice the evil and twisted path by using people to refine your spiritual energy core."

"You slanderous mouth!" Yuqiong ZhenJun exclaimed vehemently. "Today, this venerable shall bring you down!"

"Bring it on!" Fu Changling charged straight at Yuqiong ZhenJun with his sword, yet Yuqiong ZhenJun remained undeterred by fear. With a flick of his horsetail whisk, he closed in on Fu Changling.

Simultaneously, Liu Shulian and the rest of their disciples rushed towards Fu Changling as well.

While chanting an incantation, Fu Changling unleashed golden characters towards the nearby ordinary cultivators. His Qinggu fan spun outward, expanding the formation with every sweep, while the Spirit-Gathering Pagoda greedily absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy.

Despite being only in the Deification stage, Fu Changling displayed no signs of inferiority when confronted by Yuqiong ZhenJun, who had reached the stage of Tribulation Transcendence.

The clash between cultivators at the Deification stage and above sent reverberations throughout the Hongmeng Heavenly Palace and its surroundings. Terrified common folk fled from the mountain, while the high-level disciples who had been hesitating within the Hongmeng Heavenly Palace made the decision to descend and set up a barrier to safeguard the innocent.

The intense tremors naturally caught the attention of the nearby immortal sects. With the upcoming Junzi Platform battle looming, all the various sects hurriedly made their way to the Hongmeng Heavenly Palace.

Sensing the tremendous spiritual energy disturbance, they halted their journey and dispatched their disciples to investigate.

Amidst the fierce battle between Yuqiong ZhenJun, Liu Shulian, and the others against Fu Changling, Yuqiong ZhenJun suddenly spotted disciples from another sect approaching. He immediately called out to Yue Mingming, "Elder Yue, relay a message!"

Yue Mingming's meditation and consumption of medicine were abruptly interrupted by Yuqiong ZhenJun's resounding shout. With quick reflexes, Yue Mingming performed a hand gesture and launched a Hongmeng Heavenly Palace seal into the sky. As the seal exploded like a display of fireworks, the sky became adorned with red characters.

Summoning all his strength, Yue Mingming suppressed the blood in her mouth and urgently conveyed, "Fu Changling, the son of the demon lord Lin Chen, has appeared among us, disguising himself as our sect disciple Shen Xiufan. He is now plotting to harm the Palace Leader, betraying his master and deviating from the righteous path. Immortal sects, hurry and come to our aid!"
