Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
The demon realm, where the original high mountains were swallowed up by the void, leaving only flat half of the mountain peaks.
At this moment, the void opened on the half-mountain peak, and the entrance to the secret realm appeared. Three demonic beasts, whose only remaining divine souls were left, were sent out by the secret realm.
Although they left the secret realm alive, their expressions were not pleasant.
It could even be described as ugly.
Not only because their physical bodies were destroyed, but also because their souls were controlled by Shan Yu's clone.
In other words, they were controlled by Lu Tao.
call--
As soon as the three-headed demonic beast appeared, a dragon at the level of a mere great demon flew over. Clearly, it had been nearby from the beginning, observing the situation after the secret realm ended.
"How did you all manage to come back alive? What exactly happened inside the secret realm?"
Although the dragon was only at the level of a Great Demon, one level lower than the Divine Platform, it showed no respect to the three Divine Platform Perfection Demon Beasts, clearly indicating its extraordinary status, and directly questioned the three demons.
The three demons did not find anything amiss; on the contrary, they respectfully told the dragon everything that had happened within the secret realm in detail.
Finally, the three demons took out their storage rings and handed the piles of memory stones that Lu Tao had specially left for them to the dragon.
It's filled with scenes of a destroyed secret realm.
"Unfortunately, this time our two clans were careless."
Looking at the scene of the secret realm being destroyed in the memory stone, the dragon's eyes were filled with regret. It then asked, "This Lu Tao, a mere Divine Platform Realm cultivator, was able to kill all of you at the Divine Platform Perfection Realm?"
"Even at the early stage of the Divine Platform realm, he can successfully challenge the ninth level of the Divine Platform."
The three demons silenced the dragon with just a few words.
It knew what this meant. With only the early stage of the Divine Platform realm, it could kill a late-stage Martial King. With such strength, killing all two thousand Divine Platform Perfection demons would be difficult, but not too difficult.
After all, the space within the secret realm is limited, and the demons had nowhere to escape, so it's understandable that they were all killed.
The three demons had already been enslaved, and Lu Tao had instructed them beforehand not to reveal any information about the fireball and ice pearl. Therefore, the dragon was unaware that in less than half an hour, Lu Tao had completely annihilated the two thousand demons who had reached the Divine Platform Perfection stage.
"To think that such a prodigy could emerge from this great undertaking... perhaps it is the will of Heaven."
The dragon is somewhat complex.
Originally, this grand plan was a sure thing, but Lu Tao appeared out of nowhere, causing them to lose everything.
It can be said that they tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead.
Not only did they fail to seize the Divine Platform Secret Realm, but they also destroyed the secret realms of both their own races.
In this way...
The three secret realms that were left behind by the gods and descended to the mortal world were all destroyed.
Perhaps this is fate.
These three secret realms and these altars should never have been preserved.
Its destruction in the realm of gods had its reasons, and after being left in the mortal world, it did not survive for long, only ten thousand years.
"You must recover your physical bodies as soon as possible, advance to the level of Demon King, and go to the Outer Heavens to participate in the battle."
The dragon tossed some materials to the three demons, allowing them to restore their physical bodies and break through to the Demon King realm before joining the battle.
It didn't blame the three demons, after all, Lu Tao was indeed too strong, and it wasn't the three demons' fault.
but.
Since Lu Tao was able to release the three demons, it naturally could no longer trust them and would not allow them to remain in the demon realm. Instead, it would send them to the battlefield to shine and make a final contribution to the demon race.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The three demons bowed and accepted the order, showing no surprise whatsoever.
Clearly, they had anticipated this outcome.
After all, no race would knowingly allow its members to become traitors and inform Lu Tao within its own territory.
"You can recover here."
The dragon left behind a single sentence and then flew away.
Secretly, he transmitted all the information he had obtained to Ao Cang.
Meanwhile, in the outer heavens of the Ganyu Continent, Ao Cang was doing his best to spread the news of the three great secret realms being obtained by Da Gan to other races, and invited these races to attack Da Gan together.
After receiving the message from the dragon, Ao Cang sighed, "Shan Yu was indeed not lying."
Several hours ago, after the demon clan's secret realm self-destructed, he instructed the demon god within the clan who had direct contact with Shan Yu to question Shan Yu, or rather, interrogate Shan Yu.
Dan Yu told them that he had never intended to destroy the Great Divine Platform Secret Realm. At first, he wanted to seize it for himself, but later he naturally did his best to help the demon and monster races refine the secret realm.
He even swore an oath about it.
He said.
The reason why Da Gan's divine altar secret realm self-destructed must be because his clone encountered an accident while refining the secret realm, and only under these circumstances did he have no choice but to let the secret realm self-destruct.
He guessed that perhaps the Martial God's avatar entered the secret realm and discovered his refining of the secret realm.
Previously, Ao Cang would not have believed Shan Yu's words, but now that news has come from the demon race, he has no choice but to believe it.
"A person at the early stage of the Divine Platform realm killed a late-stage Martial King. This person's talent is terrifying; he must not be allowed to live!"
Upon learning of Lu Tao's extraordinary talent, Ao Cang felt a chill run down his spine.
It knew that once Lu Tao grew up and became a Martial God, he would probably be even stronger than a typical Martial God at the peak of his power. Perhaps that would be the true invincible Martial God.
Such a powerful being would be a nightmare for both the demon and monster races.
Now, the demon and monster races and the Great Gan are mortal enemies. If we want the two races to be safe in the future, the only way is to eliminate the Great Gan and kill Lu Tao.
As for asking Lu Tao to let the demons and monsters go and live in peace, the demons and monsters couldn't do it, and in its opinion, Lu Tao certainly couldn't either, let alone fight back.
You destroyed someone else's secret realm, and you expect them to forgive you? That's unreasonable.
Thinking about this...
Ao Cang directly communicated with Fan Miao via telepathy.
"This person is too talented; we must kill him before he grows up."
Fan Miao had already received the message from the Demon Realm, so when Ao Cang sent him a telepathic message, Fan Miao fully agreed with its decision.
"That's right, we must eliminate Da Gan and kill Lu Tao as soon as possible."
Ao Cang nodded and transmitted his voice, "Now that we have gathered enough Martial Gods, we can launch a full-scale attack. If we delay any longer, other unforeseen events may occur."
Several hours ago, the two races released information about the three secret realms, gaining the support of many races. Numerous powerful martial gods rushed to the Outer Heavens, ready to annihilate and overthrow them.
The power is sufficient.
Now that they know of the existence of the recording stone, they naturally won't give Da Gan any time to respond. They'll fight first, and killing one more Martial God like Da Gan is a bonus.
But they were unaware that Da Gan also collected fragments of the altar...
None of the six demons under Lu Tao's control mentioned this matter.
——
On the other side.
At the entrance to the Great Gan Divine Platform Secret Realm, many people were standing, all from Yongkang Prefecture, the Great Gan Imperial Family, and various sects.
They waited here, eager to be the first to know what was happening within the secret realm.
He Zongming, Chen An, and others were also there, anxiously waiting on the outskirts of the crowd.
The incident in the secret realm was no secret, especially since Kong Hao had informed them about it beforehand.
Therefore, He Zongming and the others were very worried that something might happen to Lu Tao, He Yuanshuang and the others in the secret realm.
The Immortal Sect exists only because of Lu Tao; without him, it would exist in name only.
The group was filled with apprehension, fearing that something might happen to Lu Tao and the others.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
The entrance opened, and a dense crowd of people, sent out by the secret realm, all landed on the plaza, making it appear extremely crowded.
At this moment.
An aged figure appeared beside the Ninth Prince, anxiously asking, "What happened within the secret realm? Did you really plunder the secret realms of the demon and monster races?"
"Brother Lu, why don't you explain?"
The Ninth Prince looked at Lu Tao and introduced him, "This is an ancestor of my Great Gan royal family. You can call him Seventh Master."
"Seventh Master, these are the specific events that occurred within the secret realm."
Lu Tao nodded and handed a jade slip that he had prepared beforehand to Seventh Master.
Lu Tao had actually met Seventh Master before; he was the gray-robed Martial God. However, what appeared at the entrance of the secret realm was not his true form, but an avatar.
Seventh Master glanced at Lu Tao with some surprise, but before he could think it over, he hurriedly took the jade slip and began to read it.
As he watched, his expression changed constantly. Finally, Seventh Master sighed with a complicated look, "The matter of the secret realm is indeed so complicated."
original.
Regarding the destruction of the secret realm, Da Gan only assumed it was Shan Yu's doing. They had considered the possibility that the demon and monster races were behind it, but they had no way of investigating.
It wasn't until three hours ago, when the demon and monster races suddenly announced the matter of the three secret realms, that they realized the seriousness of the situation.
But he knew nothing about anything else.
Now, after reading the jade slip, he realized that the matter behind the secret realm was far more complicated than they had imagined.
While plotting to destroy the secret realm, the demon and monster races also intended to annihilate Daqian.
We were just a little short, just a little short of going all out and it would have been over.
If it weren't for Lu Tao, who stopped the plans of the demon and monster races and killed two thousand demons at the Divine Platform Perfection stage, and if they had appeared in Daqian, he would have advanced to Martial King...
Even his avatar, the God of War, was powerless to stop it and might even be killed outright.
After all, the clone's aptitude is insufficient, and it only possesses the cultivation technique. In just twenty years, its cultivation has only improved to a limited extent, and it is currently only at the Divine Platform Realm. Even if it has the strength of a Martial King, it will only perish when facing two thousand Divine Platform Perfection Realm cultivators.
If it cannot be stopped, then destruction will befall Yongkang Prefecture, and annihilation will befall Dagan.
Thinking of this, Seventh Master couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.
fortunately.
Lu Tao became a variable.
Especially considering that Lu Tao had previously stopped the war in Mufeng City and turned the tide for the border army, and now he had also thwarted the schemes of the demon and monster races...
This moment.
Seventh Master felt that Lu Tao was like a comet that had fallen from the sky, a savior of the world.
Thinking this, Seventh Master's gaze softened as he looked at Lu Tao, and he said, "Lu Tao, you have made invaluable contributions to this matter. If you need anything, just let me know, and I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Seventh Master suddenly seemed to receive a message, his expression changing drastically. "Oh no! The foreign tribes have begun a joint attack on our Great Gan!"
"What?"
How could this be?
Why so fast?
Everyone who heard this was horrified.
The joint attack on Da Gan by foreign tribes was not an attack by ordinary cultivators, nor was it an attack on Da Gan's territory. Rather, it was an attack on the outer heavens, involving Martial Kings and Martial Gods.
Furthermore, given that this is a joint operation by foreign tribes, it's likely that a Martial King will emerge, but rather a Martial God.
Lu Tao had mentioned a similar scenario before, back in the secret realm.
As expected, even though the two clans' secret realms had been destroyed, and Da Gan had not taken them back, this situation still occurred.
In just a few hours, the two races had already gathered enough martial gods to launch a direct attack on Da Gan at the moment the secret realm ended, which can be described as incredibly fast.
Lu Tao's expression also changed, and he hurriedly reminded him, "Seventh Master, we have collected quite a few fragments of the Divine Platform. We can use them to resolve the crisis."
"Fragments of the altar?"
Upon hearing this, Seventh Master, who was almost in despair, suddenly brightened up.
Three hours ago, the two races announced the matter of the three great secret realms to many planes, making the outside races feel the pressure brought by the secret realms, and naturally the pressure would be even greater if they went all out.
Even many Martial Kings and Martial Gods in Da Gan have become desperate and are considering abandoning Da Gan and running away.
This is because there are too many martial gods gathered in the Outer Heavens; in just a few hours, the number has exceeded three hundred.
Furthermore, each of these martial gods possesses extremely powerful strength.
If it weren't for the fact that these martial gods were not of one mind, and none of them were willing to be the first to stand out, fearing that they would be instantly killed by a concentrated attack, they probably would have already started fighting.
But now, the demon and monster races are leading the charge, and a war breaks out instantly with Da Gan.
The situation suddenly became urgent.
In fact, if Da Gan hadn't laid out numerous defensive formations over the past twenty years, there would probably have been casualties in an instant.
Even so, the project is in grave danger.
But at this moment, after learning of the existence of the Divine Platform fragments, Seventh Master instantly saw hope for breaking the deadlock.
Seventh Master hurriedly informed his main body about the recording stone and the fragments of the altar through his divine soul, so that it could resolve the crisis.
At the same time, Seventh Master hurriedly said, "Quickly, give me all the fragments of the Divine Platform. Once the crisis is over, I will naturally treat you well."
Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly handed the fragments of the altar to Seventh Master.
They never expected that the fragments of the altar would have such a use; they had thought it was just one of the pieces of evidence of the destruction of the secret realm, and something to be used to exchange for resources.
Who knew that it could also resolve a major crisis.
At this moment, everyone's gaze towards Lu Tao changed repeatedly. They didn't know if Lu Tao had thought of this all along, or if it was just a coincidence.
If Lu Tao had anticipated this, he could be described as having a mind as monstrous as a demon.
That's absolutely terrifying.
Lu Tao naturally chose to remain silent in response, but he also handed over some fragments of the divine altar.
In just a few breaths, Seventh Master put away the fragments of the altar and the recording stone, and without pausing for a moment, he rushed towards the Outer Heaven.
At the same time, a voice transmission landed in Lu Tao's mind, "Lu Tao, you did a great job in the secret realm. If Da Gan can resolve this crisis, you will be the one to make the greatest contribution. Da Gan will not forget you."
Before he finished speaking, Seventh Master had already disappeared.
Looking out at the sky, Lu Tao looked somewhat worried. He had long anticipated what was happening in the outer heavens.
With the destruction of the two clans' secret realms, the demon and monster clans naturally wouldn't let the opportunity to launch a major attack. However, he didn't expect that in just over three hours, the two clans would have already gathered so many martial gods.
This is evident.
The threat posed by foreign tribes to the secret realm was even more significant than Lu Tao had imagined.
He had done all he could regarding the war in Tianwaitian.
Lu Tao couldn't help with other matters for the time being. After all, he was only at the early stage of the Divine Platform realm. Although he possessed the strength of a Perfected Martial King, he would be nothing more than cannon fodder once he entered the Martial God Battlefield.
"Let's go home!"
Lu Tao, along with He Yuanshuang, Wu Ming, Kong Xin, and others, flew back to the Immortal Sect, bringing with them He Zongming, Chen An, and the others who had calmed down.
Goodbye, Brother Lu.
"Sect Leader Lu, I will visit your sect another day."
Upon seeing this, the others also clasped their hands in greeting and then left.
"The sect leader is back."
As soon as they flew to the front of the Immortal Sect, they found all the disciples of the Immortal Sect waiting in the sect square.
Clearly, they were also worried about the safety of Lu Tao and his companions, and had been waiting anxiously in the square.
Upon seeing this, Lu Tao couldn't help but smile.
