The events of thirty thousand years ago were long lost in the dust of history, difficult to trace. Xuan Lingzi only knew a rough outline of what had happened, as the events of that time were taboo on Mount Taihua. Aside from the successive sect leaders and the head of Yuxiao Peak, the other venerables of Mount Taihua were not even qualified to know.
After all, who would dare to believe that 30,000 years ago, Mount Taihua was once condemned by thousands of people.
This is not a glorious thing, and the fewer people who know about it, the better.
Since even Xuan Lingzi couldn't explain the Nine Lotuses Heaven-Seizing Record, Luo Jianqing had no choice but to give up. Xuan Lingzi said that no cultivator except the Nine Lotus Venerable could reach the sixth level of the Nine Lotuses Heaven-Seizing Record. However, Luo Jianqing had already reached the fifth level, and the next step was the sixth level.
Neither of them mentioned the matter again, tacitly. Luo Jianqing had no idea what Xuan Lingzi was thinking, yet he believed in himself. The Nine Lotuses Heaven-Snatching Record had given him the possibility to cultivate further, allowing him to advance from the middle stage of the Golden Core to the middle stage of the Fusion in just seventeen years. As the saying goes, things will work out in due time; there will surely be a solution.
The simple and plain flying treasure ship quickly crossed the sky over Yunzhou and headed towards the far north.
Deep in the demon realm.
Two streaks of light flashed by, and Demon Lord Xing Wei and Demon Lord Hao Ming walked quickly towards the main hall. As soon as they entered the main hall, they walked towards Yin Ji, who was sitting on the throne.
Hao Ming was even more impatient and started to speak: "What's going on? Why do you suddenly want to make peace? Yin Ji, we still have the upper hand in the current situation. Even if Xuan Lingzi has broken through to the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, didn't Tian Lao also break through to the Heavenly Stage?"
Yin Ji now sat upright, her usual carefree self gone. Her face sullen, she gazed at the two demon lords, who were clearly suppressing their rage. After a long pause, she spoke, "You've greatly underestimated Xuan Lingzi's strength. Tian Lao is seriously injured. I'm afraid he'll need to join forces with Jin Li to hold Xuan Lingzi back." After a pause, Yin Ji added, "This isn't going to be to our advantage."
Xing Wei's expression changed: "Tian Lao was seriously injured?"
Yin Ji said: "It will take about a few years to recover."
Everyone was silent.
With his hands behind his back, Xing Wei frowned and said, "If that's the case, then the ten-year truce is indeed strange. Yin Ji, Tian Lao has returned now. Did he say anything that you should pay attention to?"
Yin Ji narrowed her eyes slightly, resting her fingers on her pointed jaw, tapping gently. She lifted her long legs, revealing a charming expression. Even without a smile, her enchanting face was still very cool and beautiful.
"Tian Lao said that the withered mountain is not simple. The ten-year truce is not just for Xuan Lingzi, but also for... the withered mountain, which may collapse again in the near future!"
Not long after, Demon Lord Xing Wei and Hao Ming left the hall together. Yin Ji had always been in charge of all matters within the Demon Realm, managing them with impeccable discipline and earning the respect of Elder Du Jue Tian. This time, Elder Du Jue Tian had both decided the start and the pause, leaving Xing Wei and Hao Ming with no choice.
However, Xing Wei was very concerned about one thing: "Before I left, Tian Lao went to the far north. He originally wanted to see the situation in Kushan and find a way to permanently seal Xuan Lingzi or even kill him. Although I didn't expect Xuan Lingzi to escape, what exactly happened that made Tian Lao decide to cease fire?"
Hao Ming didn't think as much as Xing Wei. He waved his hand rudely: "Since Tian Lao said so, then let's listen to him and Yin Ji."
Xing Wei narrowed his eyes thoughtfully and said nothing more.
However, they hadn't walked far before they turned a corner and saw a blue figure appear before them. Xing Wei and Hao Ming were both stunned, standing at the corner of the corridor for a long time, unable to move.
On a winding corridor, the water shimmered, shimmering. The breeze stirred the lake below, creating ripples. The clear, turquoise water gurgled, as if playing the world's most moving melody. And on this corridor, a tall, cool figure stood quietly, its back to them.
Her black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and her azure robe was decorated with intricate vine patterns outlined by silver threads. Even from behind, she exuded an air of elegance and refinement, as if fused with the water, or enshrined in the heaven-stretching lake like a moon surrounded by stars.
In this world, only divine beasts can have such temperament, and only divine beasts can make all things in the world willingly submit.
Demonic beasts are not divine beasts, but divine beasts are not complete demonic beasts either.
A thousand years ago, the last divine beast in the world lost its heart, and from then on, it became a muddleheaded fool. At that time, the demon race still had a great demon master, a mid-level celestial rank. He once spied on the way of heaven for the divine beast and concluded that the demon core was shattered and could not be restored in this lifetime.
So from then on, no one in the demon realm was afraid of this divine beast anymore.
Jin Li, the former First Sea Lord, disliked socializing and remained confined to Dragon Island, staying out of sight unless it was a crucial moment in the war between the two clans. However, the subsequent First Sea Lord, Jin Li, no longer held such supreme power. He was banished to the mortal realm, even losing his mind. Despite his strength, he was no longer even as powerful as an ordinary demon lord.
Many people knew of what Xing Wei and Hao Ming had done over the past millennium, but only they... and the person who had been bullied knew everything. Perhaps they had gone too far, and three hundred years ago, even Du Jue Tian Lao couldn't stand it anymore. He placed Jin Li under his wing, forbidding anyone else from having direct contact with him.
Xing Wei's face had gradually turned pale, and Hao Ming was sweating profusely, shaking like a sieve.
