Chapter 621

Upon learning that Qi Xiong and his group had slain ten demon emperors of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land, Li Zhengqing and the others all had complex expressions.

Damn, this bunch of people doesn't speak a word of truth—where is the most basic trust between people?

I'd love to kill my way back to Dongzhou and demand an explanation from the Dao Yi Sect.

But the Yunluo Shèngzhǔ waved his hand helplessly and said.

"If blame is to be assigned, it can only be your own stupidity; saying this now is useless, but this is actually an opportunity..............."

The Yunluo Shèngzhǔ keenly sensed that, at present, it could be said to be the weakest moment of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land.

Losing ten demon emperors at once, if we seize this opportunity we might be able to deal a heavy blow to the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land in one fell swoop.

The Human Race and Demon Race are sworn enemies by nature, so whenever there is even a slight chance, neither side will let it pass.

Thinking about it, the actions of the Dao Yi Sect seem to have earned great merit for our Human Race.

No longer hesitating, the Yunluo Shèngzhǔ personally took action, leading Li Zhengqing and others to intercept that demon emperor of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land in Zhongzhou.

Upon meeting, seeing the Yunluo Shèngzhǔ, that demon emperor of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land spoke coldly.

"Yunluo Shèngzhǔ, what do you mean by this?"

"Nothing much, but everything requires evidence; the Dao Yi Sect is after all our Human Race's sect, so if you Heavenly Dragon Holy Land wish to act, you must have a justification."

"Hmph, the Dao Yi Sect slaughtered ten demon emperors of my Holy Land—isn't that reason enough?"

"Where is the evidence?"

"My word is the evidence."

"If that's the case, then I cannot let you pass."

"What, are you Yunluo Holy Land going to intervene in this?"

"So what if we do?"

The sudden intervention of the Yunluo Holy Land left that demon emperor of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land with an extremely grim expression.

And on that day, Zhongzhou erupted in a battle of emperor-level magnitude.

The Yunluo Shèngzhǔ and that demon emperor of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land clashed fiercely, shattering mountains and rivers and rending space.

The battle lasted several shíchén, and in the end that demon emperor of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land retreated helplessly.

Moreover, as the Yunluo Holy Land intervened forcefully, many perceptive people have sensed that the coming days will likely be unsettled.

As expected, only a day later the Yunluo Holy Land announced it was joining forces with the Yaochi Holy Land to jointly declare war on the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land.

This is a plan to strike while they're weak and take their lives.

Having just lost ten demon emperors, the two major Human Race Holy Lands have united, hoping to crush the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land in one fell swoop.

The situation changes rapidly; it is said that the Tianlong Holy Lord flew into a rage over this.

However, facing both major Human Race Holy Lands at once, the situation of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land is perilous; the most pressing matter now is to resolve the immediate danger.

As for what happened in Zhongzhou, the Dao Yi Sect here naturally knows nothing about it.

Qi Xiong didn't hide it either; the remaining five demon emperors, one per day, had already been devoured by the Dao Yi Sect.

After consuming those five demon emperors, the disciples of the Dao Yi Sect all made breakthroughs, their cultivation speed practically being forcibly raised to a higher level.

Unfortunately, such ingredients are only temporary; as the demon emperor supplies are exhausted, the disciples' breakthrough speed naturally slows as well.

Even so, the rate of improvement among many disciples of the Dao Yi Sect, without exaggeration, has already surpassed that of the holy land disciples in Zhongzhou.

This is an extremely terrifying fact, considering that this is Dongzhou—its cultivation environment and resources simply cannot compare to those of Zhongzhou.

Moreover, worth noting is that from the spiritual herbs Mu You brought out of the imperial tomb, he successfully refined a batch of pills with excellent effects.

These pills are recorded in Dongzhou, except that the spiritual herbs lack either this or that ingredient, making them impossible to refine there.

Now that we have the materials, refining them is naturally not troublesome.

But at this moment, looking at those few stalks of saint-grade spiritual herbs before him, Mu You is somewhat worried.

"What, you can't refine them?"

"Senior Brother, you think too highly of me; I'm not yet a saint-level alchemist."

Facing Qi Xiong's inquiry, Mu You replied with a bitter expression.

"Besides, even if I could refine them, it would be useless for my uncles to take them."

"You mean Dongzhou cannot accommodate a breakthrough to the Great Emperor level?"

"Yeah, even if they took them, my uncles still couldn't break through."

"Actually, my uncles' cultivation has long reached the peak of perfect fulfillment in the Shèngjìng, yet they've been unable to break through for so long, which is related to Dongzhou's cultivation environment."

Qi Xiong hopes that Yu Mo and the others can break through as soon as possible, for only by having a Great Emperor presiding can the Dao Yi Sect truly possess the qualifications to stand against the holy lands.

However, hearing Mu You's words, this matter has become somewhat difficult.

Even if we successfully refine the pills, my uncles still cannot break through.

After a moment of contemplation, Qi Xiong spoke softly.

"Then the only way is to go to Zhongzhou, right?"

"Yeah, only Zhongzhou offers a chance to break through to the Great Emperor level."

Yu Mo and the three others want to charge into the emperor realm, so they must go to Zhongzhou; staying in Dongzhou offers no chance.

But we've just offended the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land, and now heading to Zhongzhou feels like walking into a tiger's den.

They haven't even come knocking yet, and you're practically delivering yourself to their doorstep................

Qi Xiong was still hesitating; not only him, but in the canteen, Yu Mo and the others were also gathered together, discussing the matter of going to Zhongzhou.

"Have you three really decided?"

Huoyan looked at Yu Mo and the three others and asked; upon hearing this, they all nodded.

"Zhongzhou is definitely where we must go; if we keep staying in Dongzhou, then we three have reached our limit."

"That's the reasoning, but Zhongzhou is nothing like our place here."

"I also want to go."

Just as several people were speaking, Ye Zhangqing beside them spoke up.

As for Zhongzhou, Ye Zhangqing was also very curious, and he clearly knew that the Dao Yi Sect's true goal in the future was still Zhongzhou.

Whether they can establish a foothold in Zhongzhou and become a holy land is the direction of the Dao Yi Sect's future development.

After sharing his thoughts with Yu Mo and the others, Ye Zhangqing added emphasis.

"No matter what concerns we have, we will eventually have to take this step."

"It's not just you elders who must go to Zhongzhou; the entire Dao Yi Sect, up and down, must go to Zhongzhou—that is the sect's future."

"So even if Zhongzhou holds danger and concerns, we must still go; this is beyond doubt and cannot be changed."

Ye Zhangqing's resolve to go to Zhongzhou was absolute; sooner or later this step must be taken—what difference does it make whether we go earlier or later?

Furthermore, according to Ye Zhangqing's idea, if we could first send a portion of people to Zhongzhou to learn about it, then when the entire Dao Yi Sect later relocates to Zhongzhou, wouldn't we be more confident?

Everything requires preparation.

After hearing Ye Zhangqing's words, Yu Mo and the others were dumbfounded; they never expected this kid to say such things—truly unexpected.

Gazing deeply at Ye Zhangqing, Yu Mo suddenly sensed something was off, her eyes continually shifting.
