Upon hearing this, the expressions of the demon clan's earth lords softened somewhat.
Their trip was also intended to seek guidance from the Celestial Venerable. The Celestial Venerable Zhucheng's words were tantamount to making a deal with them.
They protected him as he awoke, and he guided them in their spiritual practice.
"In addition, Zhucheng Tianzun said that Earthly Venerables who are willing to stay here can receive five Heaven-Mending Stones. If they are unwilling to stay here, Zhucheng Tianzun is also willing to give each departing Earthly Venerable a Heaven-Mending Stone as an apology."
"These are the Heaven-Mending Stones that Heavenly Venerable Zhucheng instructed me to give to everyone. Now, Earthly Venerable experts who are willing to protect Heavenly Venerable Zhucheng's awakening can come up and receive five Heaven-Mending Stones."
As they were talking.
With a wave of his hand, the middle-aged man conjured hundreds of sky-mending stones in the void.
Upon seeing this, the dissatisfaction on the faces of many demon clan earth lords dissipated, replaced by a look of fervor.
In today's world, spiritual energy is scarce, and rare and precious materials are hard to cultivate. Those available for use by experts in the Bodhi Realm are even rarer.
Even among the vast demon race, the annual production of Sky-Mending Stones is only a dozen or so, which is far from enough to satisfy the needs of all the powerful beings in the Bodhi Realm.
Moreover, after these Sky-Mending Stones were divided up among the various demon royal families, there were basically none left. For demons who were not royal families or Earth Venerables, obtaining these stones was nothing short of a pipe dream.
Most of these demon clan Earth Venerables were not from royal families. For them, obtaining rare and precious materials such as the Sky-Mending Stone and Chaos Spirit Liquid to build their own grotto-heavens was as difficult as ascending to heaven.
This move by the Celestial Venerable Zhucheng was tantamount to hitting their sore spot. After a moment's hesitation, many of the Earthly Venerables chose to guard this place.
Soon, under the leadership of Youyao, all the demon clan's Earthly Venerables chose to stay here.
Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man nodded, his eyes flashing, and many of the Sky-Mending Stones instantly transformed into streams of light and scattered, stopping in front of the group of Earthly Venerables.
In front of each demon clan Earthly Venerable, there were exactly five, no more and no less.
"The Heavenly Venerable Zhucheng is truly magnificent!"
"As expected of a Celestial Venerable powerhouse from the Eternal Era, such a feat is truly astonishing!"
"Haha, we will definitely guard this place well. Even if Su Bai has eight pairs of wings, he won't be able to fly in!"
The demon clan's Earthly Venerables smiled and accepted the Sky-Mending Stone.
Among them, a demon clan Earth Venerable seemed to have discovered something amiss, and frowned slightly.
If any human cultivators were here, they would surely recognize that this demon race Earth Venerable was the one Su Bai transformed into using the Superior Transformation Water.
"System, there's a problem with this Sky-Mending Stone."
[Yes, host. These Heaven-Mending Stones each contain a wisp of the power of heaven and earth from the place where the Celestial Venerable Zhucheng merged with the Dao. Using them would turn one into a puppet of this world, completely enslaved by the Celestial Venerable Zhucheng!]
"Can it be removed?"
[Yes, but each Sky-Mending Stone will cost 1 attribute point!]
"Remove these five."
[Ding! The residual power of heaven and earth on the five Sky-Mending Stones has been removed, consuming a total of 5 attribute points!]
Under the influence of the Heavenly Dao, Su Bai could clearly see a blood-red aura emerging from the five Heaven-Mending Stones, like peeling silk from a cocoon, before quickly disappearing into the world.
He calmly put away the Sky-Mending Stone and then looked around.
At this moment, these demon clan Earth Venerables were still surrounding the middle-aged man, constantly showering him with compliments.
Seeing this, Su Bai moved swiftly, flashing over and grabbing his neck in an instant.
This sudden move caught the demon clan's Earthly Venerables off guard.
Snap!
With a loud bang, a blood-red palm print appeared on the middle-aged man's face.
