The sudden sinister laughter and voice from within the Demon Gate immediately caused the entire Upper Realm to boil over.
The nightmare of the Ten Great Immortal Sects and various clans?
Martial artists from all directions subconsciously associated this with the Demon Delusion Clan they’d jointly destroyed back then, speculating whether the Demon Origin Land was truly being used to resurrect the Demon Ancestor.
Realm Hall.
Several high-ranking officials stood outside the great hall, their brows without exception tightly furrowed.
“It’s finally come.”
“The Upper Realm will have no peaceful days.”
“Should we notify the Immortal Sects? Have them send people to suppress it?”
“The Demon Origin Land is connected to the world’s origin. If it could be easily suppressed, how could it have been allowed to exist for so long?”
“…”
The Demon Ancestor’s resurrection was a very serious problem.
But the Realm Hall simply couldn’t make corresponding deployments, because all this had been calculated by the other party long ago. If there was truly a possibility of resurrection, no one could stop it.
“Master.”
Inside the magnificent palace, the hunched elder said gravely: “The Demon Ancestor is about to resurrect?”
Empress Ling Yao said: “As expected, as long as that fellow entered, changes would definitely occur.”
The Demon Origin Land had existed for a hundred thousand years, opening and closing repeatedly without much commotion. Now Jun Changxiao had entered and the Demon Ancestor was resurrecting—wasn’t this too coincidental?
“Chaos.”
Empress Ling Yao said: “The Upper Realm will fall into chaos.”
“The Realm Hall will have a headache.” The hunched elder said.
“More than that.”
Empress Ling Yao said: “The Ten Great Immortal Sects probably won’t be able to sit still either. After all, a peak powerhouse like the Demon Ancestor can completely bring absolute disaster to the entire world through individual might alone.”
…
Demon Origin City.
Liu Sinan hung in mid-air, his brows tightly furrowed.
He’d not only heard the voice just now but heard it more clearly than others. Especially sensing the power contained within, his state of mind was immediately affected, so he exclaimed: “Just how strong was the Demon Ancestor in life?”
“Whoosh whoosh!”
“Whoosh whoosh!”
The huge iron gate hanging in the firmament—the carved pattern’s light flashed brilliantly, releasing magnificent demonic energy outward, quite giving the feeling of sweeping across the entire world.
“Swish!”
Liu Sinan spread both arms. His Spatial Spirit erupted, and substantial barriers enveloped the huge iron gate, blocking the demonic energy’s irregular spread.
He’d come to Demon Origin City worried about demon cultivator riots. Now with the Demon Ancestor’s resurrection imminent, as a Demon Exterminator he naturally had to contribute his strength to obstruct it. As for whether he could succeed, that was already beyond consideration.
“Whoosh!”
“Whoosh!”
Just as he was gathering spatial barriers, beams of light suddenly flew from all directions. Judging from the aura they released, their strength was all no less than Liu Sinan’s.
A moment later.
Ten elders in various garments with dignified appearances appeared outside the huge iron gate, their turbid gazes gradually sharpening.
“So strong!”
Shock arose in Liu Sinan’s heart.
These people’s strength was unfathomable to him—their realms had probably already reached the peak level of Truth-Seeking Realm!
“Whoosh!”
“Whoosh!”
Just then, two more beams of light flew over at extreme speed.
“Tonggu Zhenren, Qiye Zhenren.” A white-haired elder said indifferently: “Why have you come as well?”
Liu Sinan’s heart jolted.
“What of it?” Tonggu Zhenren said with a face full of displeasure: “Is this the territory of your Ten Great Immortal Sects, where we wandering cultivators aren’t allowed to freely enter?”
Ten Great Immortal Sects?
Liu Sinan’s eyes immediately widened.
No wonder these ten people’s cultivation was so formidable—they were powerhouses from the Ten Great Immortal Sects!
Peak wandering cultivators, Immortal Sect powerhouses.
Outside the small Demon Origin City, big shots had gathered!
However, this was just the beginning, because over the next half hour, powerhouses from all directions continued to rush over. They all came from Dao-grade sects, with strength all at Truth-Seeking Realm.
Did the Realm Hall contact them?
No, the Ten Great Immortal Sects contacted them.
Since the Demon Origin Land was the opportunity for the Demon Ancestor’s resurrection, and because it was connected to the world’s origin and couldn’t be entered to strangle the danger in its cradle, everyone could wait outside—wait for him to come out!
Liu Sinan’s facial expression became wonderful.
If calculated by seniority, he in the Upper Realm was merely second generation, while people like Tonggu Zhenren and the Immortal Sect powerhouses were solidly first generation. Now all gathered outside the Demon Gate were first-generation powerhouses, making him feel very lacking in status.
That being said.
As Tonggu Zhenren’s disciple, Jun Changxiao could also be classified as second generation and could address Liu Sinan as brothers.
Big Brother Liu—no problem with that.
“Though this isn’t our Immortal Sect’s territory, with the Demon Ancestor about to resurrect, idle people should leave quickly.” A powerhouse from the Ten Great Immortal Sects said indifferently.
“Heh.”
Qiye Zhenren sneered: “Worried we’ll cause trouble?”
Though he and Tonggu Zhenren were quite wary of the Ten Great Immortal Sects, cowering like dogs when meeting them was definitely impossible—at least in cultivation they weren’t weak. The weakness was just in being outnumbered.
Put simply.
The brothers’ individual strength wasn’t inferior to any single Ten Great Immortal Sect powerhouse, but if it came to a group fight, they definitely couldn’t match multiple fists with just two.
“Whoosh!”
“Whoosh!”
After another while, powerhouses from the various great clans also flew over—the Thunder Rhombus Clan, the Ice Phoenix Clan, and so on.
Back when destroying the Demon Delusion Clan, it hadn’t relied solely on the Ten Great Immortal Sects but also the various great clans, so with the Demon Ancestor about to resurrect, they naturally couldn’t sit idly by.
Due to the beast egg incident, the various great clans had once gathered at Eternal Immortal Mountain, but the scene wasn’t too spectacular because aside from many people, most of their strength was merely at Core Rotation Realm level.
Now before the huge Demon Gate, with top powerhouses from various sects and clan powerhouses all gathered together, the scene could truly be called shocking, because their strength was all at Truth-Seeking Realm. Randomly selecting any one could thoroughly abuse Dog Leftover Jun.
Liu Sinan had become a little brother. He even withdrew his spatial barriers, thinking: “I feel somewhat superfluous.”
Forget it, forget it.
Landing in Demon Origin City, carrying the stone coffin on his back, dragging the group of bound Burial Moon Pavilion members, he left.
The level was too high—he couldn’t participate.
…
Inside the Demon Origin Land, in the magnificent palace, when Yao Mengying picked up the box and sat on the throne, the surrounding walls and floor instantly manifested densely packed patterns, then rapidly spread out.
Jun Changxiao wanted to stop it but was already too late.
“Gurgle!”
“Gurgle!”
The demon blood in the blood pool violently boiled. The spreading patterns surrounded the throne and gradually extended onto Yao Mengying’s body. The crescent moon pattern at her brow center became even more brilliant.
“Whoosh!”
“Whoosh!”
Simultaneously, wisps of black light like ghosts drilled out from the walls, then merged into the blood pool and transformed into crimson light hanging above the throne.
“Blood is my body, souls are my will!”
A deep voice abruptly rang out in the palace, immediately shocking Li Qingyang and the others until their blood energy churned.
“Old brother!”
Gu Zhaoxi exclaimed: “The Demon Ancestor wants to use that girl’s body and soul to resurrect!”
“Damn!”
Jun Changxiao cursed in his heart, then rushed toward Yao Mengying.
Whether the Demon Ancestor resurrected or not, he wouldn’t care, but if he used his own disciple’s body to accomplish it, he definitely had to stop it—because this was absolutely not a good thing!
“Whoosh!”
Little Evil and Little Fire operated madly, helping Father resolve the demonic energy’s disturbance. Jun Changxiao managed to approach the throne and grabbed Yao Mengying to pull her down. But just as he was holding her and leaving, a huge suction force suddenly erupted, directly…
“Plop!”
Dog Leftover couldn’t break free and sat his butt right on the throne.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Right at this moment, the demon blood in the blood pool instantly sprayed out and surged over. The wisps of crimson souls gathered above also pressed down, instantly enveloping Jun Changxiao and Yao Mengying, forming a huge crimson water sphere. From inside came ‘ah ah ah’ dog barking sounds.
“Not good!”
Gu Zhaoxi’s face changed drastically: “Old brother has been implicated!”
“Sect Master!”
Li Qingyang, Xiao Zuiji and the others all cried out in alarm.
However, a similar near-collapse roaring sound also rang out in the palace: “How can there be an orthodox martial artist sitting on my throne!!”
