Chapter 1461: The Demon Cave is Formed

Upon hearing Yun Xiantai's words, especially the word "plan", for some reason, the assassin Yongye felt his scalp go numb.

Now she doesn't even know how to extricate herself; originally, according to the plan, everyone was supposed to obtain the demonic essence fruit unbeknownst to gods and ghosts, then withdraw.

But now it feels like Yun Xiantai and his group have turned it into a blatant robbery.

The demon race here has already reacted; even though she is the assassin Yongye, she doesn't know where to retreat for the moment.

Now Yun Xiantai says he has a plan again, and she feels utterly uncertain inside.

Facing the assassin Yongye's question, Yun Xiantai's face darkened, and he spoke in an unhappy tone.

"Are you doubting this old man?"

"Junior does not dare."

"Then follow my orders; this old man has a brilliant plan, don't waste time, let's go."

Saying that, Yun Xiantai led everyone toward the direction with the weakest defenses, opposite the demon realm's exit.

Indeed, along this route there were hardly any defenses; one could even say the demon race seemed not to care about this side at all.

The actions along the way went very smoothly; even when they encountered some demons, Yun Xiantai and his group quickly eliminated them.

But despite the apparent smoothness, the assassin Yongye felt increasingly lacking in confidence.

The more lax the defenses, the more it proves the demon race simply isn't afraid of you running this way.

Now everyone appears to be going smoothly, but in reality they have been sprinting down a dead-end road.

"Xu Jie, does your ancestor actually have a plan or not?"

Not daring to ask Yun Xiantai directly, this assassin could only turn to the relatively familiar Xu Jie.

As for that, Xu Jie replied with a blank expression.

"I don't know either, but I suppose there should be one."

Xu Jie himself didn't know either, after all, who could say clearly what Yun Xiantai is doing?

Seeing this, the assassin Yongye felt a sense of "my life is over".

He always had the feeling of having followed the wrong person and boarded the wrong ship.

Meanwhile, as Yun Xiantai and his group fled for their lives, a spatial rift tore open above the Black Demon Mire.

From it strode out the figures of five demon emperors.

Upon receiving the distress signal, the five demon emperors of the demon race rushed over immediately.

But looking down at the Black Demon Mire in utter disarray, the five demon emperors still arrived a step too late.

However, their expressions showed no panic or change; after scanning the area with their divine sense, they discovered the corpse of one demon emperor, as well as the corpses of other demons.

As for Yun Xiantai and his group, there was no trace of them.

"They've run away."

"No matter, they can't escape."

"The exit has been sealed; they can't escape the demon realm. As long as they remain inside the demon realm, there are a hundred ways to capture them."

"Hmm."

After saying that, the five demon emperors vanished into the void; since the people were no longer here, staying any longer would be pointless.

As for the Black Demon Mire, which has been left in utter disarray, the demons below will naturally come to deal with it.

This loss is not small; needless to say, three demonic essence fruits are gone, and the various grades of spiritual fruit have also suffered huge losses.

But having taken so many treasures, one also needs the life to enjoy them.

Even a powerhouse at the Emperor Sovereign Realm, if trapped in the demon realm, is still doomed to a dead end.

Unbeknownst to what happened in the Black Demon Mire, at this moment, the two demon emperors who have been constantly fighting the Haotu World in another direction of the demon realm stand excitedly before the Demon Cave.

For no other reason than that the newly constructed Demon Cave is about to take shape.

"Can it be opened at the latest by tomorrow?"

"Yes."

"Good, well done."

Under the constant urging of the two demon emperors, the demon tribe priests worked overtime, forgetting sleep and food, and finally managed to break through this demon cave.

Now, with the Demon Cave about to take shape, the excitement in the hearts of the two demon emperors cannot be concealed.

Based on the various manifestations of the Haotu World, they have concluded that the Haotu World must have encountered trouble.

What exactly happened doesn't matter; what matters is that this is an opportunity.

Strike while the enemy is weak—after suffering so many losses at the hands of the Haotu World, they have finally seen an opportunity; how could they let it slip?

They must seize this opportunity to take down the Haotu World in one fell swoop.

The Haotu World has suffered repeated defeats in battle, losing considerable face among the demon race.

Moreover, it is said that the Demon Progenitor has grown dissatisfied with them, which is certainly not good news.

That a mere closed world could inflict such a great loss upon the demon race is absolutely unacceptable.

Therefore, these two demon emperors urgently need to prove themselves.

Only by taking down the Haotu World can they wipe away their previous shame and give an account to the Demon Progenitor.

"Continue, we must open the Demon Cave as soon as possible."

Time is pressing; we cannot give the Haotu World a chance to catch its breath, for if we wait until it recovers and then act, we'll be back where we started.

At that point, although we could muster the demon race's strength and forcibly seize the Haotu World, it would be troublesome, and their standing within the demon race would become even more awkward.

"By the way, something seems to have happened over at the Black Demon Mire."

Having finished speaking about the Demon Cave, one of the demon emperors suddenly spoke up.

They had also heard a bit about the earlier distress call from the Black Demon Mire, but given the distance, even at demon emperor speed, it would take half a day to get there from here.

By the time they leave, the yellow flowers will likely be cold, and with the Demon Cave about to take shape, we can't afford any mishap now.

So they didn't go.

Hearing this, the other Demon Emperor nodded and spoke in a low voice.

"It's said they disguised themselves as demons and launched a strong assault on the Black Demon Swamp, which the defenders there couldn't hold."

"What's been going on lately? Why does this keep happening? There's always someone provoking our demon race."

In the past, few dared to cause trouble in the Demon Realm, let alone something like this time directly assaulting the Black Demon Swamp.

That hasn't happened in hundreds of years.

First it was the Haotu Shijie, and now another batch of unknown identity has appeared, disguising themselves as demons.

Has the deterrent power of their demon race weakened? Or are there more people in this world who aren't afraid of death?

The two Demon Emperors don't realize that the fearless people they speak of and the Haotu Shijie are actually the same group.

Moreover, this group is currently heading toward them, and the location where the two Demon Emperors are building the Demon Cave happens to be opposite the exit of the Demon Realm.

After briefly mentioning the Black Demon Swamp affair, the two Demon Emperors turned their attention back to the Demon Cave.

"We don't need to worry about the Black Demon Swamp; the other Demon Emperors have already gone there, we just need to guard the Demon Cave."

"Good, this time we can't allow any more leaks."

They gazed gloomily at the busy demon priests and the nearly formed Demon Cave; once the Demon Cave takes shape, they will lead their demon warriors to crush the Haotu Shijie in one fell swoop and avenge their past shame.

Killing intent filled their eyes; the humiliation the Haotu Shijie had inflicted on them was too great, they must take it down to prove themselves before the Demon Ancestor.

However, just as the two Demon Emperors were breaking through to the Demon Cave, Yun Xiantai was also leading the crowd continually rushing toward this side.
