The True Demon, constantly chewing, said disdainfully, "If it weren’t for Lord Bodhi’s exceptional status, do you think we’d ever get a place like this?"
"Hehehe, I heard this hunting ground used to belong to another lord, but after that lord t with an accident, it was reassigned to Lord Bodhi, right?"
"I actually do know a little about that."
"It’s said that the cultivators in this hunting ground discovered they were rely food. At that exact ti, that lord was at a critical juncture in his cultivation and wasn’t paying close attention. As a result, he was killed by those ’food’."
"Really? How did they manage to kill him?"
"If you’re asking , who am I supposed to ask? How could news like this possibly spread? That lord was from *that* family. If we weren’t in the hunting ground, I wouldn’t dare say a word."
"Makes sense. By the way, have you recovered your cultivation yet?"
"Not quite. You know I’m just a tiny bit stronger than you."
"Get lost."
Infinite Star Sea
Jian Wuli watched the dark void with a calm smile and said, "Everyone, won’t you co out?"
Netherworld King appeared first and said, "Jian Wuli, the True Demon Clan has arrived. What’s your plan? Surely it’s not that little one who is still just a Heavenly Immortal?"
"We can’t stay away for that long!" a youth from the Infinite Place said gravely.
"Are you looking down on a disciple of my Myriad Beasts Sect?" Heavenly Beast, the founding ancestor of the Myriad Beasts Sect, said, sounding a little testy.
One by one, figures erged; among them was distinctly Yu Heng.
Jian Wuli’s smile faded. He surveyed those present and said solemnly, "Everyone, the Heavenly Dao is currently in slumber. I possess a Locking Heaven Secret Technique that can prevent you from being assimilated and turned into puppets when you break through to the Dao Yi realm."
Looking at his fellow cultivators, whose expressions flickered with indecipherable emotions, Jian Wuli warned, "I know so of you are definitely thinking of breaking through to Dao Yi and then fleeing to safety. After all, in the lands of the True Demon Clan, a Dao Yi realm expert is also a true True Immortal and holds a significant position."
"But concerning the ancient war, I presu those seated here are sowhat aware."
"Jian Wuli, stop beating around the bush! Who here doesn’t know? You just want us to unite and kill the True Demon responsible for this harvest, and then break out, right?" Netherworld King snapped.
"Outside is the territory of the True Demon Clan. Can we really break out?" the Insect Nest Queen said nonchalantly.
"Insect, do you really intend to stay in this sewer that is the Infinite Star Sea for the rest of your life?" the Corpse Demon Clan’s old ancestor scoffed.
"I’m just an insect; it doesn’t matter to . Of course, if there’s hope, I’d also like to stand in the sunlight."
Watching the arguing half-step Dao Yi experts, Jian Wuli said with a touch of pity, "We didn’t completely lose the ancient war; several Fellow Daoists managed to escape."
Yu Heng, with her petite fra, took two steps forward and interjected, "That’s right. That’s why the True Demon Clan has co this ti with the intention of utterly destroying this hunting ground."
After speaking, Yu Heng glanced at the Insect Nest Queen and said, "Even the sewer will be razed to the ground."
Jian Wuli nodded and affird, "Fellow Daoist Yu is correct. This ti, they’ve co to completely annihilate us. If you want to live, abandon all other notions. Oh, by the way, the True Demon Clan does not accept surrender."
"In ancient tis, so Fellow Daoists surrendered, only to end up as als on a platter. None of you should harbor any illusions of chance."
"I’ll leave the Locking Heaven Secret Technique here. And a reminder: breakthroughs can only be achieved within the Infinite Star Sea."
Large, glittering golden characters materialized in the void, emitting a dazzling light that imprinted itself upon the eyes of every half-step Dao Yi expert present.
After everyone had left, Yu Heng approached Jian Wuli and asked, "Can we succeed?"
"I don’t know," Jian Wuli said calmly.
"How can you not know? Don’t you want revenge anymore?" A ferocious glint flashed across Yu Heng’s face.
"So what if we escape? After all these years, how unfathomably deep do you think the cultivation of those people from back then has beco?"
"Hmph! I *must* escape! This vengeance must be taken, or my heart will never know peace!"
Watching Yu Heng’s jade-like body, Jian Wuli shook his head and asked, "Can you still break through to Dao Yi now?"
Yu Heng’s body stiffened. She sneered, "No, it’s not possible for . But aren’t you optimistic about that kid? I think he has a chance."
As Yu Heng’s figure vanished, a faint smile touched Jian Wuli’s lips. He murmured to himself, "How could I possibly be content? This ’true world’ they speak of... I must see it, even if it costs my life."
To have cultivated for countless eons, yet never to have seen the true face of the world... How utterly tragic, how lantable!
