"He's just a human cultivator, yet he expects the two of us to personally go and negotiate. What a huge honor that he's bestowed upon us."
The ugly demon man said with great dissatisfaction.
"They're nothing but ants. If it weren't for the Xuan Tian Spiritual Treasure, how could they have killed Yuan Yi and Yuan Er? Now we have to go and negotiate with them ourselves." The alluring demon woman was equally dissatisfied.
The ugly, burly demon was named Yuan Luo, and the alluring demon woman was named Yuan Sha.
Both were capable assistants of the Primordial Ancestor, and both were Holy Ancestors who possessed their own territories.
The strength of a patriarch is closely related to his territory.
Demon ancestors who possess territories can obtain more cultivation resources.
This territory is not a small piece of land; some demon ancestors' territories are as large as the entire Tiannan region.
All cultivation resources within the Holy Ancestor's territory belong to the Holy Ancestor alone.
Only after the Holy Ancestor has finished eating will it be the turn of the others.
This is also why the two Holy Ancestors, Yuan Yi and Yuan Er, always wanted to have their own territory.
The progenitor was a whole level above the sage ancestor, and his territory was ten times, or even a hundred times, larger.
For example, when the Holy Ancestor's territory was at its largest, even Tiannan was his territory, and he also occupied a large area in Lingzhou.
The cultivation resources in these places must first go to the Holy Ancestor, and then be distributed to the Holy Ancestors and others under his command.
If the Holy Ancestor were to enjoy these cultivation resources all to himself, probably no one would dare to object.
Yuan Luo and Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor are even more special, enjoying more cultivation resources.
Not only do they receive offerings on their own territory, but they also receive a share from the Holy Ancestor.
The cultivation resources they obtained were far more than those of ordinary Holy Ancestors.
The fact that the two of them were able to enjoy such treatment shows that they were deeply trusted by the Holy Ancestor.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been entrusted with such an important task, coming to Lingzhou to find Han Feng.
"If this human is too weak later, we'll just steal his Xuan Tian spiritual treasure; that would be much easier," Yuan Luo Saint Ancestor said with a ruthless look.
"It's better not to act rashly. This human possesses a Xuan Tian spiritual treasure. Even if his cultivation is at the late stage of the Integration Realm, the two of us working together might not be his match," Yuan Sha said cautiously.
“You’re right. We should follow the ancestor’s advice. If this person refuses to submit, let the ancestor handle it himself.”
“That’s what I think too. Our ancestors entrusted us with so many things to do, and they gave us specific instructions for each one. We don’t need to mess around.”
...
After discussing it for a while, the two headed towards Yellow Maple Valley.
...
The border between Tiannan and Lingzhou.
A fairy island.
A spacetime rift opened, and three Taoist priests with otherworldly airs emerged from it.
As the three Taoist priests walked out, the space-time rift suddenly disappeared.
"Senior Brother Tianji, let's head to Huangfeng Valley now and kill Han Feng. This Xuantian Zhanling Sword must belong to our Taiqing Sect!" Lingyun Daoist said impatiently.
“Junior Brother Lingyun is right. Now that our Taiqing Sect has arrived first, we certainly cannot miss the opportunity to seize the initiative.” Daoist Qingshan was equally anxious.
"My two junior brothers, please calm down. I really want to seize the initiative, but some people won't allow it." Tianji Daoren said with a bitter expression.
"Wasn't my Taiqing Sect the first to arrive?"
Lingyun Daoist instantly sensed something was amiss; several more auras had appeared around him.
These auras were incredibly powerful, in no way weaker than their own.
Qingshan Daoist also sensed something was wrong and snorted coldly: "Since you fellow Daoists have come, why hide here and there? Are you perhaps trying to be the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind?"
"Fellow Daoists, what are you saying? We've only just arrived ourselves," Leng Hanmei said with a smile as she walked out.
Beside her were two Mahayana practitioners: a beautiful middle-aged woman and an elderly woman.
"Grandma Hundred Flowers and the Poisonous Woman of Absolute Beauty, the Heartbreak Sect is truly skilled." Daoist Lingyun's face showed caution.
The two were also very famous in Lingzhou, and their strength was much greater than that of Daoist Lingyun.
"Sect Leader Leng, what brings you here? Eliminating Han Feng doesn't require so many people, does it?" The old Taoist Tianji's expression darkened.
“Fellow Daoist Tianji, why bother with this mystique? Your Taiqing Sect is making such a fuss, do you really think my Duanqing Sect knows nothing?” Leng Hanmei said coldly.
The old Taoist priest Tianji fell into deep thought, realizing that it was clearly impossible to bypass Leng Hanmei and the other two.
Although Leng Hanmei and her two companions were much stronger than the three of them, he was not afraid of them because he had the Xuan Tian Abacus.
"How about this? The six of us share a common goal: let's go together to destroy Han Feng, and then each of us can compete for the Xuan Tian Spiritual Treasure based on our own strength. What do you think?" The old Taoist Tianji made a concession.
"That's exactly what I was thinking. Let's go together as a group of six and destroy Yellow Maple Valley. Then we can each rely on our own abilities to see who can obtain the Xuan Tian Spiritual Treasure. Let's set off now."
Leng Hanmei nodded in agreement, saying, "If it had been any later, the other sects from Lingzhou would have arrived in Tiannan, and the situation would have been even more chaotic."
“That’s what I think too. It’s best for our two sects to cooperate now. We have a great chance of obtaining the Xuan Tian Spiritual Treasure. If all the major sects in Lingzhou were to participate, it wouldn’t be so easy for us to obtain it.” The old Taoist Tianji nodded in agreement.
Just as the six were about to head to Yellow Maple Valley, a familiar voice rang out beside them.
"Fellow Daoists, we've worked together before, so why don't you include me in your collaboration now?"
"Jin Yeyang, I didn't expect you to come too."
The old Taoist priest stopped and frowned as he looked at a certain spot.
"Isn't it normal for me to come? My cultivation of the Heavenly Fortune Technique is no worse than your Divine Calculation Technique, so it's perfectly normal for me to know that Han Feng obtained the Mysterious Heavenly Treasure," Jin Yeyang explained with a smile.
"Now that both of you fellow Daoists are here, let's head to Yellow Maple Valley together, kill some people first, then seize the treasures. As for the treasures, let's each rely on our own abilities," Leng Hanmei said helplessly.
Jin Yeyang only brought one demon ancestor with him, which is one less Mahayana stage cultivator compared to the Duanqing Sect and Taiqing Sect.
However, both Jin Yeyang and Jin Yeyang are members of the Heavenly Demon Sect and possess true spiritual bloodlines.
Even if the techniques cultivated by the Broken Heart Sect are inherently powerful, they may not be a match for Jin Yeyang and his companion.
The three previously disbanded alliances have reunited.
Before the three could even set off, two more people from the Heavenly Demon Sect arrived.
Both of them practiced demonic techniques and were covered in demonic energy.
If these two weren't renowned experts from the Heavenly Demon Sect, the three of them might have mistaken them for members of the demon race.
The history of the Heavenly Demon Sect can be traced back to the Dark Ages of the human race, making it the oldest of the ten major sects.
When sects like Taiqing Sect and Tianyao Sect were still small sects, Tianmo Sect was already a behemoth.
Needless to say, the Broken Heart Sect might not even have a founder yet.
Despite their seemingly middle-aged appearance, the two may have lived for hundreds of thousands of years, and their cultivation level has reached the mid-stage of the Mahayana realm.
The leader was called True Demon Ancestor, and the one beside him was called Earth Demon Ancestor. Their strength was terrifying.
