Chu Wanwan glanced at the thousands of demons outside the city walls and asked, "Are they just going to rest? Aren't they going to ignore those demons? Although those demons are low-level, they are numerous. With such a continuous stream, aren't they afraid that the demons will break through the walls?"
“I’ve been here for a while, so I know. Do you see those black stones used to build the wall?” Si Mingye pointed to the city wall.
"Yes! I see it! What's wrong with that stone?"
Chu Wanwan asked, puzzled.
"Legend has it that this was the first pillar of heaven created when Pangu separated heaven and earth. Tens of thousands of years ago, during the war between gods and demons, this pillar was broken, and its fragments scattered throughout the immortal realm. These black stones are fragments of that pillar, containing immense power that naturally restrains demons. Therefore, the walls built with these stones are difficult for demons to destroy, which is why the walls were able to withstand demon attacks," Si Mingye explained.
"Difficult to destroy doesn't mean it can't be destroyed, right? Otherwise, why would we kill demons? They can't get in anyway!"
Chu Wanwan asked in confusion.
"Of course it can be destroyed. Even a small anthill can breach a thousand-mile-long dike! So we can't just ignore it. On the contrary, the soldiers here are fighting day and night, trying to kill more demons and lighten the burden on the city walls. Otherwise, one day the endless demons might really break through the city walls. At that time, the Immortal Realm will be in grave danger."
Si Mingye paused here, then pointed to the densely packed soldiers on the city wall and said, "Because they fight day and night, these soldiers take turns fighting. When their spiritual energy is depleted, they naturally need to rest. It's impossible to kill all the demons before resting. That's why the old man and the formation master went to rest immediately."
Only when they recover their spiritual power as quickly as possible will this place be safer!
Si Mingye said calmly.
"The soldiers on the front lines are working so hard! Let's go help them! Brother Mingye, those level 5 demons are yours, and all the other low-level demons are mine!" Chu Wanwan said with a smile.
Demons are terrifying beings to others, as they have an extremely strong reproductive ability and can appear in overwhelming numbers. However, for Chu Wanwan, they are the nourishment for her leveling up.
Si Mingye nodded and charged directly at a gigantic demon.
The demon's body was almost as tall as the city wall, and its enormous form relentlessly rammed against it. Even though the city wall was built of divine stone, it trembled slightly from the impact, and fragments of stone kept falling from it, demonstrating the demon's immense power.
At this moment, more than ten Void Realm experts surrounded the giant demon, their attacks landing relentlessly on the demon, yet they couldn't even break its skin.
A level 5 demon's strength is equivalent to a Void Realm expert, but the demon in front of us is a pure tank with astonishingly high defense.
Si Mingye leaped forward, his demonic sword unsheathed, growing larger in the wind until it transformed into a giant sword suspended in mid-air.
Si Mingye wielded the giant sword and slashed down at the enormous demon.
With a "thud," the giant sword slashed directly into the demon's body.
The demon's enormous body was torn apart by the giant sword like shredded cloth, blood splattering everywhere and demonic energy soaring into the sky.
Si Mingye wielded the giant sword, pulling it out and plunging it in again, leaving deep wounds on the demon's body. The demon let out a deafening roar, its massive body twisting and turning, trying to escape the deadly giant sword.
However, Si Mingye's control was incredibly precise. The giant sword followed closely, locking onto the demon and leaving it nowhere to escape.
The soldiers on the city wall cheered at the sight. They knew that this level-five demon was doomed in Si Mingye's hands. Their morale soared, and they fought with even greater bravery.
At this moment, Chu Wanwan was also busy, her fingers flying across the screen. A massive demon-gathering array enveloped the sky above this area. The countless demons that had been frantically attacking the city, seemingly without end, immediately stopped.
The demonic energy on their bodies was extracted by the Demon Gathering Array and gathered into dark vortexes of demonic energy. These vortexes were controlled by Chu Wanwan and transformed into streams of spiritual energy, which surged wildly into Chu Wanwan's body.
As the demonic energy was drawn away, the demon turned to ashes and vanished into the air.
Nourished by the demonic energy, Chu Wanwan's cultivation steadily improved, advancing directly from the mid-stage of the Condensation Realm to the high-stage. Then, from the high-stage to the peak, she was only one step away from breaking through to the Spirit Transformation Realm.
The soldiers on the city wall stared in shock at what they saw.
Those who can fight on the front lines are at least at the Spirit Transformation Realm, so they can naturally see the changes in Chu Wanwan's cultivation level.
"What kind of cultivation technique is this? How could someone advance from the mid-stage of the ninth level of the Condensation Realm to the peak level in such a short time? And the methods for killing demons are just too powerful!"
"Yes! I wonder who that little guy is, that he can actually learn such a heaven-defying technique! Could he be a descendant of a powerful being from the eighth or ninth heaven?"
"Even among the powerful beings of the Ninth Heaven within the spacetime rift, I have never heard of such a technique!"
“I know! That formation is called the Demon Gathering Formation, and the technique for converting demonic energy into spiritual energy is called the Demon Devouring Spirit Refining Technique!” An older soldier suddenly spoke up, his eyes gleaming with excitement. “I once saw a technique that combines this formation with a cultivation method in a book called ‘Miscellaneous Records of the Divine Realm.’ It was an ultimate move used by the ancient Goddess of Life to deal with the demon race.”
No one else may cultivate this technique casually, for its most crucial element is the power of life, the unique bloodline power of the Goddess of Life. How could a mere child possibly cultivate it?
The veteran frowned.
"What kind of Goddess of Life can cultivate? You must be kidding me! Everyone knows that the Goddess of Life has already sacrificed herself for the sake of all living beings in the mortal realm. How could she possibly appear here? Besides, that child's bone age is only five or six years old. How could she possibly be the Goddess of Life!"
"Perhaps she is the reincarnation of the goddess of life?"
“That’s even more impossible. Once a god falls, there is no chance of reincarnation. This is an ironclad rule of heaven and earth. If the Goddess of Life has truly sacrificed herself, then everything about her will return to nothingness, including her bloodline power, her cultivation techniques, and even her memories. None of this can ever appear in another life form.” Another soldier shook his head, denying the reincarnation theory.
"Then what's going on with this child? Her cultivation techniques and formations are exactly the same as those recorded in the 'Miscellaneous Records of the Divine Realm,' how can this be explained?" The older soldier was still full of confusion.
"Perhaps this is just a coincidence? Or perhaps this child has had a special experience that we don't know about, allowing her to receive some inheritance from the Goddess of Life?" Someone suggested another possibility.
"Special encounter? Receiving a legacy? This...this is too unbelievable!" someone exclaimed.
