Jin Li, the Daoist Master, sat cross-legged in mid-air, her expressionless gaze fixed on the dark hole ahead, pondering who knows what in her heart.
After a while, several Gold Core Daoist Masters arrived together, flying over.
Jin Li, who had been sitting in mid-air, raised her eyebrows and had a stern expression on her pretty face, her phoenix-like eyes carrying a sense of authority, showing that she was quite angry.

"Hong Siming, you have quite the audacity to appear before this Daoist Master."
"Master, please calm down... Master, please calm down...", said one of the Gold Core Daoist Masters, an old man with a white face and white beard. He smiled bitterly as he stepped forward from the group and flew to stand in front of Jin Li, continuously bowing and saluting.
"I came here today to accompany some friends and have no other intentions," said the old man named Hong Siming. He was also a Gold Core Daoist Master and a high-ranking member of the Yellow Lotus Sect’s East River Branch.
Many years ago, when Jin Qiao’er was still a Refining Qi stage cultivator, she had once traveled to Great Wind City with a joint merchant caravan formed by several sects. There, she caught the eye of a Foundation Building late stage cultivator from the Yellow Lotus Sect’s East River Branch, who tried to take her away under the pretext of accepting her as a disciple. Thanks to the intervention of patrolling cultivators from Great Wind City, the Yellow Lotus Sect cultivator’s plan failed.
After Jin Qiao’er returned to the Endless Sea of Sand, the Yellow Lotus Sect had also sent people to infiltrate the area, attempting to abduct her. However, since she was noticed by Jin Li, the Daoist Master, at a very young age, she was taken as her disciple. Nevertheless, during those years, Jin Li had been busy traveling around and had no time to take care of a child, so she left Jin Qiao’er in the care of Aunt Jin and others at Qiaoshou Sect.
After staying at Qiaoshou Sect for many years, Jin Qiao’er developed deep feelings for the place and was unwilling to leave. Since Jin Li, the Daoist Master, was going to stay around the Endless Sea of Sand, serving True Monarch Tian Zhu, she allowed Jin Qiao’er to stay as well.
However, the Yellow Lotus Sect cultivator’s interest in Jin Qiao’er touched Jin Li’s sore spot. The only restriction she faced was not being able to act recklessly within the Endless Sea of Sand. Since Yellow Lotus Sect was part of Jiuqu League, it was not subject to this restriction.
Later, Jin Li, the Daoist Master, wreaked havoc in the Yellow Lotus Sect’s East River Branch, causing them great embarrassment. With a Gold Core late stage cultivation base and formidable combat strength, Jin Li was a force to be reckoned with. Moreover, she was resourceful, often attacking and then leaving, never allowing herself to be surrounded by others.
In one-on-one combat, no one from Yellow Lotus Sect’s East River Branch could match Jin Li, the Daoist Master. When they tried to use their numbers to surround her, they couldn’t manage to trap her.
Under Jin Li’s harassment, the Yellow Lotus Sect’s East River Branch suffered greatly and was in a state of chaos.
What’s more, Jin Li had the backing of True Monarch Tian Zhu, while the Yellow Lotus Sect’s Primordial Spirit True Monarch had long been missing.
In the end, with no other choice, the Yellow Lotus Sect’s East River Branch had to ask the seniors from Jiuqu League to mediate and reconcile with Jin Li, the Daoist Master.
Although the Yellow Lotus Sect had some justification, it was still a member of Jiuqu League. If Jin Li, the Daoist Master, continued to cause trouble, there would be people within Jiuqu League who wouldn’t tolerate it.
Jin Li, the Daoist Master, was not one to act recklessly without a plan. She understood the principle of taking what she could get. She blackmailed the Yellow Lotus Sect’s East River Branch and reluctantly settled the matter.
Now, members of the Yellow Lotus Sect’s East River Branch had appeared again in the Endless Sea of Sand and had come before her. It was only natural for her to be furious.
When they had clashed before, Hong Siming had tasted bitter defeat at the hands of Jin Li, the Daoist Master. He didn’t care about the face of a major sect cultivator and hurriedly explained to Jin Li.
The Yellow Lotus Sect was deeply rooted, not easily shaken by someone like Jin Li, the Daoist Master. Last time, when she forced the Yellow Lotus Sect’s East River Branch into such a situation, it was the result of her careful calculations and full effort.

If not necessary, Jin Li, the Daoist Master, didn’t want to provoke a genuine deep-seated grudge with the Yellow Lotus Sect. 𝘧𝑟𝓮𝓮𝓌𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝓵.𝒸ℴ𝑚
"You’d better behave yourself," Jin Li, the Daoist Master, said sharply and then ignored the group of people.
Including Hong Siming, several Gold Core Daoist Masters couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
If they really angered Jin Li, the Daoist Master, even if she couldn’t act within the Endless Sea of Sand, she would have plenty of opportunities to deal with them after they left the area. The Gold Core Daoist Masters didn’t dare to linger here any longer and hurriedly flew into the dark hole.
In less than a day, several waves of Gold Core Daoist Masters had arrived.
The cultivators from Taiyi Sect and Flying Swan Sect who were still in Mirage Desert couldn’t help but hold their breath as they watched these Gold Core Daoist Masters. They had probably never seen so many Gold Core Daoist Masters in their entire lives.
Any one of these Gold Core Daoist Masters could wipe them all out with a single breath.
Even An Xiaoran, who had always been audacious, became well-behaved at this moment and dared not shout and scream recklessly.
Delicate Water, the Spirit General, looked at these Gold Core Daoist Masters, and a strange light flashed across her face. In her prime, she had personally killed many Gold Core level experts.
The purpose of these Gold Core Daoist Masters who flew to this place was for the small world left behind by the Purple Gold Sect. They had no intention of caring about the group of Refining Qi stage small cultivators below. They were even less willing to linger in front of Jin Li, the Daoist Master, with a bad temper, for fear of incurring her resentment.
Purple Gold Sect, as a sect that had produced a Primordial Spirit True Monarch, had a great attraction to many Gold Core Daoist Masters. Even cultivators from Fire Cloud Sect, Crane Song Sect, and even Yellow Lotus Sect couldn’t resist such temptation.
If it weren’t for the fact that there was a Primordial Spirit True Monarch level expert behind the Endless Sea of Sand, there might have been even more Gold Core Daoist Masters coming over this time.
Fortunately, even with the Great Void Restriction connecting to the small world within the void of Purple Gold Sect, one still needed at least Gold Core level strength to enter. Otherwise, this place would have been crowded with cultivators from all walks of life.
Time quickly passed, and after a long time, when Jin Li, the Daoist Master, thought that everyone who should have come had already arrived and no one else would come, three figures flew over from a distance.
One was a burly man with a tiger’s head and a human body, another had the head of a crow, wings on its back, and the third was a massive fox resembling a small mountain.
Golden Tiger Demon General, Dark Crow Demon General, and Earth Fox Demon General were all famous Third Rank demons in the Demon Wind Gobi.
Among these three, both Golden Tiger Demon General and Dark Crow Demon General were Third Rank middle-grade demons, while only Earth Fox Demon General was a Third Rank lower-grade demon.
Golden Tiger Demon General and Dark Crow Demon General usually held sway in their respective territories, not under anyone’s command, and they were often at odds with each other.
When Lion Demon General advanced to become a Third Rank middle-grade demon, he intended to unify all the demons in the Demon Wind Gobi and invade the Endless Sea of Sand together. However, these three demons not only refused to cooperate with Lion Demon General but also opposed him at every turn.
Especially Golden Tiger Demon General, who looked down on Lion Demon General as a bumpkin and wouldn’t listen to his commands.
