Chapter 722

The latter sighed.

"Later... the Profound Nether World, as the sect stronghold of the Heavenly Sound Demon Gate, naturally became tainted with the characteristics of a demonic sect."

"Demonic cultivators were the majority within the world, but many sects had no intention of changing this situation."

"Disciples still need to train."

"You have also seen that since Shushan has a portal to the Profound Nether World, the cultivation world naturally has one too."

Jiang Yan said with a complex mood:

"Some time ago, the ancestors bestowed a gift, and the portal to the cultivation world was issued."

"I originally wanted to return to the cultivation world first to see how the Heavenly Demon Territory was developing, and then go see what still existed at the old site of Shushan."

"Unfortunately..."

"Ever since I discovered the traces of the Heavenly Demon Territory's Heavenly Demons in the Profound Nether World, I understood."

"The current cultivation world, even if it hasn't been completely ravaged by the Heavenly Demon Territory, is probably not far off."

"The power of resistance is likely negligible."

"It hasn't been long since the Day of Dharma Destruction, and it is difficult for cultivation sects to restart quickly."

"And those Heavenly Demons that feed on emotions, and the demonic cultivators who practice extreme demonic arts, have seized a good opportunity."

After saying this, Jiang Yan gently raised his hand, and a ferocious, pitch-black soul whistled out, but it remained trapped in Jiang Yan's palm.

It let out a silent roar.

"This time, while heading to the Profound Nether World to undergo the tribulation, we encountered the Jealousy Demon General under the command of the Heavenly Demon Territory's Wrathful Heavenly Demon."

"Late-stage cultivation of Spirit-Refining and Void-Returning..."

"At that time, I had just successfully undergone the tribulation, and this Jealousy Demon General brought a Heavenly Demon squad to come."

"Perhaps he wanted to catch me off guard, but he was suppressed by me instead. The good news is... he seemed to want to take all the credit and didn't notify the Evil Sword Immortal and the others."

"But the bad news..."

Jiang Yan paused and looked at Zhongli, who sighed and said slowly:

"Later, we continued to explore the Profound Nether World and discovered the Insatiable Demon General under the command of the Greed Heavenly Demon."

"The Seductive Demon General under the command of the Lust Heavenly Demon..."

"As well as the five great desire demons: Ignorance, Hatred, Doubt, Eating, and Arrogance."

"The entire Profound Nether World has already been ravaged by the demons of the Heavenly Demon Territory."

"And the three great demon sects of the Profound Nether World itself, which obtained the shattered inheritance of the Heavenly Sound Demon Gate—the Blood God Mountain, the Nirvana Palace, and the Luo Dust Hall..."

"Have also completely attached themselves to the Heavenly Demon Territory, becoming the lackeys of the Evil Sword Immortal."

"The Profound Nether World has already fallen."

"Later, according to our investigation, only the four great Heavenly Demons of Greed, Wrath, Lust, and Evil are guarding the cultivation world, while the Evil Sword Immortal took the Hatred Demon and three of the five great legions of the Heavenly Demon Territory to other worlds."

"Perhaps they are searching for the traces of Shushan, or perhaps they are continuing to expand their sphere of influence, but in any case, it is not good news for us."

"The five desire Heavenly Demons are all early-stage Void-Refining and Dao-Integrating cultivators, and the Evil Sword Immortal is even at the mid-stage."

"Plus the fact that the Evil Sword Immortal is immortal and indestructible..."

"The five great legions of the Heavenly Demon Territory have countless Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation cultivators, and there are also quite a few in the Spirit-Refining and Void-Returning stage."

"Plus the fact that there seem to be many demonic cultivators in the cultivation world who have also attached themselves..."

"If they are searching for Shushan, we are safe for the time being."

"If they continue to expand their sphere of influence, that would be bad..."

"The desire demons of the Heavenly Demon Territory feed on emotions. The more worlds they control, the more desires there are, and the faster their strength increases."

"Therefore, the only plan now is that we must find a way, and you all must also accelerate your cultivation."

"Once the Heavenly Demon Territory finds us, apart from the Sect Leader, no one can stop them."

After finishing, Zhongli closed his mouth with some melancholy.

This was also the reason why he didn't show any happiness at all despite breaking through his cultivation.

The pressure they have to face is too great.

Early-stage Spirit-Refining and Void-Returning?

The desire demon remnant soul in Jiang Yan's hand was already at the late stage of Spirit-Refining and Void-Returning.

Now, Spirit-Refining and Void-Returning is really not an achievement worth being proud of.

After listening to Zhongli's words, everyone was also somewhat worried. After a long silence, Ningguang suddenly said:

"Sect Leader, will the portal to the Profound Nether World allow the Heavenly Demon Territory to teleport to our Shushan?"

Hearing this, everyone immediately perked up and looked at Jiang Yan with some trepidation.

The latter shook his head and said softly:

"You can rest assured about this. The portal is a gift from the ancestors of the upper realm. Even if the Evil Sword Immortal comes in person, don't even think about breaking it."

"But blindly defending is not a good method..."

Ningguang breathed a sigh of relief, and after thinking for a while, said softly:

"Sect Leader, are you planning to use the Profound Nether World as a battlefield against the Heavenly Demon Territory in the early stages to temporarily delay the expansion of the Heavenly Demon Territory?"

Jiang Yan gave a wry smile, nodded, and then shook his head.

"Although I have this idea, but... the current Heavenly Demon Territory is powerful..."

Everyone blushed somewhat. In the end, it was because their cultivation was too low.

Otherwise, Jiang Yan would have let them go directly.

Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation...

In this kind of war, they don't count as cannon fodder; they are just regular soldiers.

Ningguang steadied her mind and continued:

"Then can the Sect Leader find the portal from the Heavenly Demon Territory to the Profound Nether World?"

"If we can find it, then we can find a way to seal it off, and then proceed step by step to wipe out the existences in the Profound Nether World."

Jiang Yan pondered for a moment, nodded slightly, and said:

"Perhaps it's feasible, but... it's not that easy."

"The Evil Sword Immortal has too deep an obsession with Shushan. Once he receives the news, he will definitely return immediately. At that time, perhaps I will start a war with him in the Profound Nether World."

"The Profound Nether World will not be able to be saved."

Everyone had a headache. Otto, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up:

"Has the Sect Leader ever thought of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf?"

"Oh?"

Jiang Yan looked at Otto thoughtfully. This guy is a top-tier smart person; he almost forgot.

When it comes to playing mind games, ten Ningguangs tied together couldn't beat him.

Although Otto doesn't understand cultivation yet, he might not lack insights.

Himeko frowned slightly and glanced at Otto.

·· ·Seeking flowers·· ·········

Just as she was about to say something, Jiang Yan raised his hand slightly.

"How to drive the tiger to swallow the wolf?"

Otto felt determined in his heart. He had now entered the eyes of the Shushan Sect Leader, which was a good thing.

He had already understood the trouble of the Heavenly Demon Territory and the Evil Sword Immortal after listening to a little bit just now.

That was an existence he could hardly fight against. Once the Heavenly Demon Territory and Shushan went to war in the future, the Honkai world might be destroyed in an instant.

He needed to resurrect Kallen and give Kallen a stable living environment, so...

Shushan's enemy is his mortal enemy.

He must try every possible way, at the very least, to delay the expansion speed of the Heavenly Demon Territory first.

It is very difficult to scheme against cultivators as a human...

But if it is cultivators executing this plan, perhaps it is feasible!

Everyone's eyes were focused on Otto, and Otto felt determined.

Next, it was his moment to become famous!

Taking a step forward, Otto said with a smile:

"I once heard Major Himeko mention that demonic cultivators are essentially a group of selfish, extremely mean demons."
