Chapter 2555: with translation of chapter title

~8 min read 1,416 words

Tianlin and Miao Qianqian are now both Ancient Immortal realm, but Human Race cultivators of this cultivation level have a high mortality rate in the battles beyond the Heavens against Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons.

After all, survival beyond the Heavens is even more brutal, especially when facing Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons.

Don't think this battle was easy to win; it was due to multiple factors.

One is Ye Zhangqing, another is that the food offset the side effects of the Mìfǎ, and the last is the defeat and flight of that Demon God.

The Demon God was defeated by Zhao Lao, and the impact on the many Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons is absolutely enormous.

If not for that, the battle might not have ended even now; the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons are not incapable of continuing the Xuè zhàn.

Moreover, in the eyes of the many Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons, Tianlin's status as a young master of the Heavenly Family is utterly useless; they simply don't buy it.

Remind Tianlin to take it easy, be careful, lest he gets killed one day in Beyond the Heavens.

Seeing Ye Zhangqing's serious expression, Tianlin also knew it was for his own good, and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I won't go anymore."

Actually, given their relationship with Ye Zhangqing, even if they stayed in the Fire Room to help, even doing the most basic work, they would still get their share of food; there's no need to go to the front lines and risk their lives.

Many Human Race cultivators have finished their meals and are now resting.

Meanwhile, Zhao Lao, Huang Lao, the Heavenly Family's old ancestor, Miao Qianhua, and the five Heavenly Palace Celestial Officials are still gathered around the dining table, eating at a leisurely pace.

They were eating from a private kitchen, no need to queue, no one snatching, so naturally they weren't in a hurry, eating elegantly.

During the meal, Zhao Lao took a bite of meat, a sip of wine, and then spoke.

"This battle was a great victory; it's indeed a promising start and a good omen. Next, we should directly charge into the Mining Domain, block the entrance, and not give these ingredients a chance to escape."

"As long as we can hold our ground at the entrance of the Mining Domain, these ingredients will be meat on the chopping board—we can eat them whenever we want."

This battle shattered the fighting spirit of the many Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons, morale collapsed, and it is absolutely a good opportunity to pursue the victory.

Therefore, Zhao Lao decided to seize this opportunity, and with momentum attack into the Mining Domain, first to establish a firm foothold inside the Mining Domain, pushing the battlefield into the Mining Domain.

Upon hearing this, Huang Lao, the Heavenly Family's old ancestor, and the others at the table had no objections.

This idea is indeed good, and it is indeed the wisest choice at present.

Attacking the Mining Domain now is much easier than usual, with greatly reduced difficulty, making success very likely.

Seeing everyone nod in support, Zhao Lao immediately gave the order, letting the people below rest for one Shíchén before launching the attack.

No need to go deep; as long as we can seize the area around the Mining Domain's entrance and completely seal it off, that will be sufficient.

Next, we only need to arrange the guards to prevent sneak attacks by those Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients.

The plan is not complicated; it was quickly finalized, and with everyone's unanimous nod of agreement, the preparations for the attack began.

On the other side, the many Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons fleeing in panic back into the Mining Domain, though their eyes held reluctance, were mostly filled with a deathly stillness.

Suffering such a great defeat at the hands of the Human Race is not common; even after years of fighting the Human Race, such occurrences are rare.

Especially since even the Demon God was seriously wounded, losing an arm.

Although it has now recovered completely, it is still a tremendous disgrace; if the Demon God had not been defeated, their morale would not have plummeted.

Many Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons are now cautiously and secretly paying attention to the Demon God.

Only see this Demon God, at this moment trembling with rage all over, its teeth grinding audibly.

Damn it, these despicable Human Race, they all deserve to die, they all deserve to die.

It would love to tear Zhao Lao apart alive and swallow him, but this Demon God knows that now is not the time.

Unwilling as it is, what can it do? The humiliation can only be endured.

It must wait for an opportunity; going out now would be walking into a trap, nothing more than another great defeat.

It must give these subordinates, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons, some time to adjust, to raise their morale again.

And at present, for them, the most crucial point is to prevent the Human Race from directly attacking into the Mining Domain.

Zhao Lao and the others can realize that now is the best opportunity to attack the Mining Domain; this Demon God naturally can think of that as well.

Carrying the momentum of the great victory, acting now is indeed twice the result with half the effort; given the waxing and waning, the chance of success is not small.

If it were normal circumstances, that would indeed be the case, but now it still has a card up its sleeve.

He coldly glanced at a nearby commander-level Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon and spoke in a low voice.

"Go summon the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's spirit child."

The other party knows how to seal this immortal crystal mine; for now we can only have him act, temporarily sealing this immortal crystal mine first.

Preventing the Human Race from entering, this way we can slowly plot; at least we need not worry about our own safety any longer.

Although this is completely opposite to the original plan, but can we still afford to consider these now?

Originally the plan was to let the Human Race enter, then seal this immortal crystal mine, to catch them in a urn and beat the dog behind the door.

But now, after this battle, sealing the immortal crystal mine has become merely blocking the Human Race from entering, purely for self-preservation.

Just thinking about it feels humiliating, but there's no choice; for the sake of the bigger picture, we endured.

This Demon God thought viciously, its actions are merely a temporary avoidance of the sharp edge, absolutely not out of fear.

Upon hearing this, that commander-level Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, although also looking grim, still respectfully nodded in agreement.

Immediately turning around, it rushed toward the depths of the Mining Domain.

Not long after, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe's spirit child that had been waiting inside the Mining Domain was brought over.

He had not participated in the battle, after all, in the Demon God's eyes this spirit child is too weak; going onto the battlefield would be meaningless.

At this moment, arriving at the entrance, looking at the Demon God shivering all over, a flash of strange color passed through his eyes.

The outcome of this battle seems not good.

If it were a great victory, he wouldn't have this expression; likely it was a defeat.

But this spirit child also dared not ask; he could only respectfully offer a salute to the Demon God.

"Greetings, Demon God."

Without further words, upon hearing this spirit child's words, this Demon God coldly said.

"You have sealed this Immortal Crystal Mine; without my order, you must not open it."

Huh???

Sealing the Immortal Crystal Mine? Are you worried the Human Race will pursue? Is the defeat really that severe?

This is no longer a simple defeat; it's probably a major loss, otherwise this demon god wouldn't have allowed him to directly seal the Immortal Crystal Mine.

He would not hesitate to use this to block the Demon Race's attack.

On the surface he showed no emotion, but inside he had already begun to calculate; this place likely cannot be held for long.

Can these Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons really stop those Human Race outside?

It seems the situation is dire; if so, if it's useless, then him staying here brings no benefit, and he might even drag himself into danger.

He already had the thought of running away, but he obviously dared not let the demon god in front of him notice.
