One hundred years ago, Xuan Lingzi, who had just entered the God Transformation Stage, fought against the four great demon lords alone, turned the tide of the war, and forced the demon clan to sign a peace treaty. One hundred years later, Xuan Lingzi appeared again, having entered the middle stage of the God Transformation Stage, and brought news of a ten-year truce between the two clans.
As soon as he finished speaking, a clear dragon's roar resounded through the heavens and earth. A long, graceful white dragon spiraled down from the sky, landing before Xuan Lingzi. A biting cold wind, mingled with sharp, piercing moisture, threatened to overturn the Demon Mountain.
However, Xuan Lingzi stood in front of everyone, took a step forward, and forcibly suppressed the anger of this noble and unique divine beast.
The two faced off atop Demon Mountain, their eyes locked as their powerful spiritual pressures collided in mid-air, shaking the earth. Finally, Jin Li roared and flew away. Xuan Lingzi withdrew his powerful pressure, stood atop Demon Mountain, and looked down at the stunned demon army.
This battle ends here.
From the Yunzhou Rebellion to the Final Battle of Demon Mountain, the two sides fought for only a month, but irreparable damage had been caused.
Yunzhou was slaughtered, corpses littering the ground; demons offered sacrifices, blood flowing like rivers. In the end, it was unclear whether humans or demons had suffered the most casualties. Yunzhou had become a deserted city, yet the demons who perished in the battle to create the Sky-Suppressing Sea Formation could be counted in the tens of millions.
When the war ended abruptly, the surviving humans were not very happy.
In Yunzhou, the remaining mortals numbly packed up their shattered homes. Some chose to leave and move elsewhere, while others, having lost all their families, stubbornly returned to rebuild their homes.
Fallen leaves return to their roots, and where they are born, there they die.
Yunzhou has a dangerous geographical location, but it is where they grew up.
The monks began to deal with the issue of whether these mortals should stay or go. The Feihua Sect and the Guiyuan Sect also sent personnel to help these mortal nations establish formations. The smallest formations were set up one by one for each village; the largest formations were the national defense formations that protected each nation. Each formation required the dedication of a Mahayana cultivator and would take at least half a year to complete.
This is the current situation in Yunzhou, and it is also the current situation in Mingzhou, Chaozhou and Qizhou, which border the demon clan.
The Demon Realm, closest to the Demon Realm, was already utterly silent. The blood of humans and demonic beasts seeped into the earth, darkening the already dark brown soil even further. Perhaps the red color of the earth was condensed from blood, a red so pure and so shocking.
That day, when Xuan Lingzi forced Jin Li to leave with the pressure of the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, he turned around and left with his unconscious disciple in his arms without giving any explanation to the demon clan.
Demon Lords Xing Wei and Hao Ming exchanged bewilderment. They naturally couldn't suspect Xuan Lingzi of deceiving them, as there was no room for deception in such a matter. After the death of the last Heavenly Rank Demon Lord, Heavenly Demon Lord Du Jue Tian Lao had become the undisputed leader of the demon race. If he truly wished to make peace with humans, it would be the same as the demon race wanting to make peace with humans.
And if Xuan Lingzi was really lying to them, why would he give a specific number?
ten years.
What exactly did this number represent? Xing Wei and Hao Ming didn't understand yet, but that didn't stop them from going back to ask Elder Du Jue Tian. Furthermore, Xuan Lingzi had already reached the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm. The two of them were definitely no match for him. Even Jin Li had left, so turning around and leaving now was the right decision for them.
When the two demons looked at each other and waved their arms to let the demon army withdraw, they did not notice that the tall and straight figure suddenly stopped and his steps paused slightly.
Xuan Lingzi's face paled suddenly after he turned around. His back remained straight, and the terrifying pressure of a Spiritualization cultivator remained undiminished. However, a trace of blood flowed from his lips, dripping gently onto Luo Jianqing's collar, spreading like ink.
After Xuan Lingzi carried Luo Jianqing into the Demon Palace, he coughed violently and immediately spat out a mouthful of black, dirty blood.
Yu Qingzi's face suddenly changed when he saw this, and he quickly said, "Junior brother, what's wrong with you?"
Xuan Lingzi gently put Luo Jianqing down and said, "Senior Sister, please check on Jianqing's condition first."
Yu Qingzi had no intention of caring about Luo Jianqing's condition. She said anxiously, "I've already used my spiritual sense to examine Jianqing. He's only suffered a severe loss of spiritual energy, and his soul has also suffered a minor injury. Junior brother, please give me your hand. Your cultivation is far superior to mine, so I can't use my spiritual sense to diagnose you directly."
Xuan Lingzi, however, waved his hand and placed Luo Jianqing's hand in that of Venerable Yu Qingzi. As the latter stared in astonishment, he calmly and calmly stated a truth. His demeanor was so calm, yet the eyes of those listening were wide with fear. He spoke only this way: "On my way out of the Far North, I encountered Elder Du Jue Tian and engaged him in battle. He had already reached the Celestial Stage, and his strength was not to be underestimated. My minor injuries are not a problem. I simply hurried here, so I didn't stop to heal."
Venerable Guanglingzi said in disbelief, "Has Elder Dujuetian entered the Heavenly Stage?"
The Bai Family Patriarch was also horrified and said, "This... How is this possible? From what I know, Elder Du Juetian has been stuck at the peak of the Earth Rank for at least seven thousand years. Everyone in the world knows that he has no chance of reaching the Heaven Rank. How did he suddenly reach the Heaven Rank?!"
Xuan Lingzi lowered his eyes slightly, glanced at the ancestor of the Bai family indifferently, and said nothing.
Just as everyone was pondering, a blood-red figure flew in from the palace gate. Blood was still oozing from the man's chest, and his face looked very bad, but he came straight here, and the first thing he said was, "How is Luo Jianqing?"
