Chapter 2174: Volume 10: The Demon Realm War, Chapter 2152: Wood Realm Thirty-Six Heavenly Absolute Array
"That's what I said! But who knows if the Demon Race has any unexpected means. If the true bodies of the ancestors really descend, and we are not in the clan to preside over the overall situation, wouldn't it be terrible?" Mo Jianli's eyes flashed with worry.
"Since Mo-brother said so, we must be cautious. The Wood Race matter really cannot be dragged on any longer! We must return to the clan as soon as possible," Ao Xiao Ancestor pondered for a long time and had to agree.
"Two seniors, this junior thinks that the probability of the true bodies of the ancestors descending is not very high. Even if they really appear, it is estimated that it will only be one or two of the three," Han Li suddenly interjected.
"Oh, Fellow Daoist Han says so, could it be that you know something? By the way, you just returned from the Demon Realm, so you should know a lot about the situation there," Mo Jianli was stunned first, but immediately remembered something, and his eyes lit up.
Ao Xiao Ancestor's face also flashed with surprise.
"I don't know how much the two seniors know about the Demon Realm's great tribulation?" Han Li pondered for a moment before asking another question.
"Demon Realm's great tribulation? Before the Demon Realm invaded the Spirit Realm, I did hear some rumors. But I didn't have time to collect more specific information," Ao Xiao Ancestor narrowed his eyes and replied.
"Not bad. When I sneaked into the Demon Realm, I also heard some related things from a Demon Venerable. But the truly relevant content seems to be mastered only by those Demon Race Saint Ancestors. Could it be that Fellow Daoist Han knows the details of the Demon Realm's great tribulation this time?" Mo Jianli asked with great joy.
"The two seniors not knowing about this Moth Mother is not strange! This fierce insect was sealed by an immortal from the Immortal Realm who descended to the lower realm in ancient times. There are very few rumors about it now," Han Li replied with a smile.
"Moth Mother, what is this? I really haven't heard of it. Fellow Daoist Ao, do you know?" Mo Jianli thought for a moment and shook his head with some confusion.
"It sounds familiar. I seem to have heard it once a long time ago, but the specific things, because the era is too long, I don't remember them very well," Ao Xiao Ancestor frowned, also looking like he was thinking hard.
"You said that, and this old ancestor finally remembered. Could the Moth Mother be the legendary ancient demon insect that possesses the power to devour a realm? Could it be that this insect has appeared in the world again, and the Demon Realm's great tribulation is related to this insect?" Ao Xiao Ancestor finally recalled some things, but his face turned pale.
"Devour the power of a realm? Brother Ao, what kind of demon insect is so terrifying! Isn't it even more terrifying than those True Spirits! Tell me in detail," Mo Jianli gasped, and his face changed too.
"True Spirits are nothing compared to it. In ancient times, the powerful True Spirits devoured by this demon insect numbered at least seven or eight. The rumors about it... this was still seen in a classic when I was traveling in other continents before I advanced to Mahayana. It is said that the Moth Mother was born in..."
Although Ao Xiao Ancestor's expression was uncertain, he told the story of the Moth Mother without chaos. The content was basically the same as what Han Li heard from Zi Ling back then.
The only difference was that according to the records in this classic, after the Moth Mother fought an immortal from the upper realm, it disappeared, and there was no mention of sealing at all.
After Mo Jianli heard it, his face became even uglier.
"The Demon Realm's great tribulation is related to this demon insect! However, from the news I got, this Moth Mother did not disappear, but was sealed by an immortal somewhere in the Demon Realm. It seems that it woke up not long ago and is now impacting the seal. And now most of the Demon Race's power is used to suppress this insect, so I think the probability of the three Demon Race ancestors' true bodies descending to the Spirit Realm is really not high," Han Li replied solemnly.
"If this ancient demon insect really wakes up completely, it won't just be the Demon Realm that is unlucky, even our Spirit Realm might be devoured by this insect. This trouble is really big," Ao Xiao Ancestor muttered a few times and fell into deep thought.
"Fellow Daoist Han, has this news been verified? Can you guarantee that it is definitely true?" Mo Jianli asked cautiously.
"The source of this news should not be a problem. This junior has at least a 70-80% certainty that it is true," Han Li thought for a moment and said so.
"70-80%, then it's mostly not fake. But to be safe, we still need to send people to sneak into the Demon Realm to formally verify it. Brother Ao, what do you think?" Mo Jianli's eyes flashed, and he asked Ao Xiao Ancestor.
"This matter is of great importance, and we must be cautious. Sending people to verify it again is definitely necessary. I will send capable subordinates to sneak into the Demon Realm to investigate this matter. If it is true, why the Demon Race is desperately demonizing the occupied areas is explained. The Demon Race is mostly preparing for the future, really intending to open up a few territories suitable for their survival in our Spirit Realm. No wonder they were so desperate from the beginning," Ao Xiao Ancestor said with a flash of murderous intent.
"Judging from the number of Demon Race people appearing in the Spirit Realm, the Demon Race's three ancestors obviously haven't given up on continuing to suppress the Moth Mother. The power appearing in the Spirit Realm is just their backup means," Mo Jianli thought thoughtfully.
"But by the same token, if the reinforcements of the Demon Race appearing in our races are also true, it means that the Demon Race is almost unable to seal the Moth Mother. We should return to the clan to preside over the overall situation in time. If the Demon Race really launches a full-scale attack, even if we join forces, we probably won't be able to resist the Demon Race's full-scale attack, and we must find other ways," Ao Xiao Ancestor said further.
"What is there to think about? Since this Demon Race matter involves the Moth Mother, it naturally cannot be borne by our few races alone. As long as we release the news, I believe those Mahayana existences of the great races in the Spirit Realm won't be able to sit still," Mo Jianli smiled.
"Hmm, this is indeed a wonderful plan." Ao Xiao Ancestor thought for a moment and laughed.
"But all this must be based on the fact that the Moth Mother matter is true. Under the current circumstances, we can't ignore the Wood Race and return to the clan immediately. Otherwise, the alliance we painstakingly organized will probably collapse in an instant, and it will be easy for the Demon Race to defeat us one by one," Mo Jianli said thoughtfully.
"Since that's the case, let's follow the Wood Race's intention and have a good fight with the Demon Race here. Strive to severely damage the Demon Race at any cost, and then we will have an excuse to return to the clan. Perhaps Old Monster Sang of the Night Fork Race thinks the same way. The Night Fork Race only has one Mahayana like him, so I don't believe he isn't worried about the safety of the clan. During this period, we will wait for news of the Demon Realm's great tribulation and the Moth Mother while sending messages to the clan to gather some scattered forces. After all, if the Demon Race really launches a full-scale attack, we can only protect ourselves first before talking about everything else," Ao Xiao Ancestor said decisively.
"Good, let's do it according to Fellow Daoist Ao's intention. In this great battle with the Demon Race, we can only win and not lose. I'm afraid we still need the help of Fellow Daoist Han and Brother Crab. But as soon as the great battle ends, Fellow Daoist Han can leave and return to the clan immediately. I see that your magic power is pure and thick, not like a cultivator who just advanced to the late Body Integration stage. As long as you cultivate in seclusion, I think you will advance to the late stage much faster than ordinary cultivators. If you can advance to Mahayana one day earlier, our Human and Demon races will benefit infinitely. As for niece Linglong, it's the same," Mo Jianli finally concluded.
Ao Xiao Ancestor nodded, clearly having no objections.
Han Li thought for a moment and agreed.
As long as the Demon Race Saint Ancestor on the Wood Race side is not a true body, he naturally won't fear anything.
Mo Jianli saw that neither of them objected, and his expression relaxed. At this time, Ao Xiao Ancestor suddenly remembered something and asked again:
"This time the Wood Race dared to propose a counterattack plan. Besides the support of Old Monster Sang, there should be other reliance. Old ghost Mo, you have been sitting in the city, what have you heard?"
"I have naturally found out about this. After the news of the Demon Race reinforcements came, the Wood Race Elder Council seemed to know that they couldn't continue to keep us, so this time they hardened their hearts and simply took out all thirty-six backup Holy Trees of the Wood Race, preparing to set up the Wood Race's first great array, the 'Wood Realm Thirty-Six Heavenly Absolute Array', to fight the Demon Race to the death. With this strange array, plus us and Sang Hai attacking together, as long as there is no major change in the Demon Race's power, this battle should have a 70% chance of winning," Mo Jianli explained carefully.
"Wood Realm Thirty-Six Heavenly Absolute Array, I know this absolute array. It is rumored that this array was created by imitating the Xuan Tian Spirit Realm great supernatural power of the upper realm immortals. It is said to have the terrifying power to kill Mahayana existences, but the Wood Race has never activated it once since its creation, and I don't know if it's true or false," Ao Xiao Ancestor said slowly with a strange look in his eyes.
"Hehe, whether it's true or false, the Wood Race is willing to sacrifice thirty-six backup Holy Trees, which shows that they are indeed determined to fight to the death. We just happen to take advantage of the situation to severely damage the Demon Race, which can also buy us more time," Mo Jianli smiled, not caring at all.
"Hehe, that's true!" Ao Xiao Ancestor also laughed.
