Chapter 172

Anyway, with their current strength, they can't go deep into the core area no matter what.

But Zhongli and the others had a headache after knowing the demonic beast distribution in the east, west, north, and south regions.

Simply put...

There is not a single place with a trace of safety.

It is worthy of being the legendary region where demons are rampant.

The plan of where to collect resources has now become where they can survive.

Suddenly, Ningguang seemed to think of something, her eyes lit up, and she looked at Jiang Yan with some expectation.

"Sect Leader, the disciple has a question."

"Speak freely."

Hearing this, Ningguang pursed her lips. After a moment, she said softly:

"What is the relationship between the six demon kings in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range?"

Suddenly, everyone was a little confused, but Jiang Yan stared at Ningguang with satisfaction for a moment.

This look made Ningguang a little shy.

After a long while, Jiang Yan said slowly:

"The six demon kings of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range are Purple Cloud Eagle, Fire Qilin Beast, Green Toad, Green Wind Cow, Snow Howl, and Roaming Sky Peng."

"Among them, Fire Qilin Beast and Snow Howl are mortal enemies, Purple Cloud Eagle and Green Toad have a grudge, Green Wind Cow's whereabouts are uncertain, and Roaming Sky Peng was injured by the Black Jiao, but also injured the Black Jiao."

Hearing this, Ningguang's eyes lit up, and Keqing and Ganyu seemed to understand something, gradually becoming excited.

"You have one last question you can ask."

Jiang Yan reminded softly.

Ningguang pondered for a moment and said slowly:

"Then... do these six demon kings of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range each have their own forces?"

Jiang Yan nodded.

"All have them. Except for the Green Wind Cow, the forces of the other five demon kings are spread throughout the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range."

"Disciple understands, thank you Sect Leader for clearing up the confusion!"

Ningguang smiled confidently, and Jiang Yan asked back:

"Do you have a plan in mind?"

Ningguang pointed south decisively.

"Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range!"

"Good..."

Jiang Yan nodded slightly, and his figure turned into a stream of light and merged into Ganyu's body.

"Don't panic."

Seeing that everyone, especially little Klee, looked a bit panicked, Jiang Yan's voice came into everyone's ears again.

"In the Nine Nether Secret Realm, my true essence cannot arrive, and the divine sense must be reduced in consumption, otherwise it will dissipate very quickly."

"If you encounter any problems later, I will tell you."

Ganyu pursed her lips and said softly:

"Sect Leader, can we maintain your actions with our true essence?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yan laughed dumbly.

"Although this divine sense is only at the Refining Qi into Spirit level, in essence, it is still my divine sense power of Refining Spirit into Void."

"I'm afraid you can't make up for much even if you exhaust everything. What's more, you are facing battles at any time in the Nine Nether Secret Realm. It is really unnecessary to use true essence to maintain my actions."

"If my divine sense consumes too much, just find Klee. I put three top-grade spirit stones in her space ring, enough for me to recover."

Now, everyone looked at Klee with envy again.

Top-grade spirit stones...

They haven't even seen top-grade spirit stones!

"Alright, since you have decided, then set off as soon as possible."

"The Nine Nether Secret Realm is unpredictable. If you delay too long, danger may come."

"Before finding a truly safe area, never stay in one place for too long."

"You must know that demonic beasts are extremely sensitive to the aura of humans."

After saying the last sentence, Jiang Yan's voice disappeared without a trace.

Ganyu and the others no longer called Jiang Yan. The Nine Nether Secret Realm journey doesn't know how long it will take.

As for the Sect Leader, let's treat him as a trump card.

After confirming that Jiang Yan was no longer paying attention, Liuyun looked at Ningguang suspiciously.

"Ningguang, why did you say we are going to the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range?"

"The Sect Leader said that the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range has six of the Seven Kings of the Nine Nethers, and the major demon king forces are huge and extremely dangerous."

"You can't just put all of us in the limelight because of a little profit, right?"

Liuyun's speech is much better now, otherwise, she would have started scolding by now.

Of course, Liuyun's attitude towards Lishui has become extremely bad.

Even if Lishui said an irrelevant word, Liuyun could scold him for a long time.

Liuyun's question is also the question of many people.

They couldn't even stop one king. If they encounter six, I don't know if the defense measures of the elders later will be useful.

Ningguang chuckled and continued:

"Senior Sister Liuyun is right, but the Sect Leader also said that the relationship between the Seven Kings of the Nine Nethers does not seem to be harmonious."

"Purple Cloud Eagle and Green Toad have a grudge, Fire Qilin Beast and Snow Howl are mortal enemies, Green Wind Cow's whereabouts are uncertain, and Roaming Sky Peng and Black Jiao are mortal enemies."

"Senior Sister Liuyun must also be clear about the principle of following the example of the superior. Since the demon kings are fighting like this, what about their respective forces?"

"If Shushan has a grudge with another sect, how should Senior Brother Xiao deal with it?"

Xiao said without thinking:

"Naturally, it is to eliminate the treacherous people for Shushan and clear the enemies!"

After the words fell, everyone suddenly realized.

Looking at Ningguang with some surprise.

"Fishing in troubled waters?"

"This is the best way, isn't it?"

Ningguang asked back.

"Compared to the dominance of a single force in other regions, I think the chaotic Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range is more suitable for us to fish in troubled waters."

"The struggle between the Seven Kings has been going on for a long time, and I think the demonic beasts are also fighting endlessly."

"We sneak in quietly without making a big move, and there is still a chance."

"Even, following behind powerful demonic beasts to pick up leaks is not impossible."

"Therefore, the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range, which seems to be the most dangerous, is actually the safest and most suitable place for us."

107. Bai Zhu: Let me go to Shushan! I am seeking immortality with all my heart!

After listening to Ningguang's explanation, everyone suddenly felt a sense of clarity.

Zhongli shook his head helplessly.

"Driving the tiger to swallow the wolf, fishing in troubled waters, the mantis stalks the cicada..."

"Such a simple train of thought, we didn't figure it out at all, it really shouldn't be."

Ningguang shook her head and smiled:

"Chief Seat Zhongli doesn't need to blame himself so much."

"The cultivation world is a completely unknown place for us, and we don't know much about the situation in the cultivation world."

"Everyone is living in Teyvat after all, and we have only been in contact with cultivation for a short time."

"Naturally, we are not as good as those who grew up in the cultivation world."

"We look at demonic beasts, subconsciously thinking they are similar to beasts and monsters, without wisdom, and even if they have it, they may not be as good as us."

"This is a subconscious idea that is hard to change in a short time."

"But no matter what, we need to force ourselves to change this idea to truly survive in the Nine Nether Secret Realm."
