As everyone ascended, they simultaneously moved northward.
From a vantage point in the southeast, one could observe a continuous stream of righteous sect disciples, like ants, climbing the mountain and heading diagonally north.
In just two days, one could see from above that centered around Kunlun Peak, thirty miles down, a waistline appeared at the southeastern entrance, the eastern slope, and the western slope.
This was the frontline where the righteous sect disciples could advance no further.
On the eastern slope and the western slope, one hundred fifty miles north of the southeastern entrance, there were also vertical frontlines formed by the righteous disciples resisting the northern reinforcements.
This indicated that the Blood God Cult had consistently kept the righteous sect at bay in the south, preventing them from encircling Kunlun Peak.
Seeing this, Jian Bingru, stationed at the main camp, immediately made adjustments.
He reduced the number of people attacking the mountain, sending only a small group of Third Realm cultivators leading Second Realm disciples to continue their ascent.
They moved stealthily, seeking the outer formations of the mountain-protecting array, with the aim not to kill the demonic cultists but to infiltrate the Blood God Cult and assess the situation within.
