Chapter 725: Everyone Is Thanking Him

Qi Xiong was full of confidence; after all, this kind of thing, his Dao Yi Sect had done it not just once or twice—he was confident.

But the others present were different—just hearing about letting the demon emperor enter the pass felt damn unreal, a completely suicidal idea.

So, even if Qi Xiong spoke up to explain, everyone still looked worried.

"Senior Sect, although we can turn the tables, but letting the demon emperor enter the pass—isn't that a bit too risky?"

"Yes, Senior Sect, think it over—this Ten Thousand Demon Pass cannot afford to be lost."

"Why don't we let a few demon royalty in first? As for the Crimson Dragon Demon Emperor, we can talk about it later."

Someone suggested just letting a few demon royalty in.

Hearing this, Qi Xiong immediately blew his beard and glared, snorting coldly.

"What's the point of letting a few demon royalty in? If I wanted to eat demon royalty, I wouldn't need to go through all this trouble."

"You lot are supposed to be Human Race sages, yet you're all as timid as mice? You won't even dare to eat the meat right before your lips?"

Qi Xiong wondered, damn it, the demon emperor is already on the chopping block, yet this bunch still gets cold feet?

It's not their fault, after all, when they followed the Qingtian Holy Land, they never took the initiative to fight the demon race.

As long as the demon race doesn't provoke them first, they will absolutely never take the initiative to attack.

But ever since the Dao Yi Sect arrived, inexplicably, the offense and defense seem to have reversed.

The demon race damn well became the side being attacked, while the Dao Yi Sect seizes every opportunity to sortie and strike.

Faced with such a change, everyone indeed is somewhat unaccustomed.

Put nicely, it's called being cautious; put bluntly, it's just being cowardly.

After being berated by Qi Xiong pointing at their noses, everyone lowered their heads.

"This matter is settled as such; later, my Dao Yi Sect's people will come to direct you—you just need to cooperate."

"I have only one demand: obey orders strictly. Whoever lets the Crimson Dragon Demon Emperor on the chopping block escape will never eat again."

"Yes."

Having said all that, nobody dared to say more; they all nodded in agreement.

After dismissing the crowd, Qi Xiong muttered curses all the way back to the rear courtyard.

"Really a bunch of cowards—they won't even eat the meat delivered to their mouths."

"What's wrong with this?"

Seeing Qi Xiong like this, Hong Zun asked curiously; upon hearing, Qi Xiong recounted what had just happened, and Hong Zun laughed.

"No problem, they just need to open the gate; next we'll go up ourselves—we just need to prepare in advance."

"Exactly, I'm just pissed off at this bunch of cowards."

Afterwards, Peak Masters Hong Zun, Qin Shan Hai, Lin Potian, and Mo Yun, along with Zhao Zhengping, Xu Jie and other young disciples, each led a team of cultivators to begin preparations inside the city.

Having confidence is one thing, but thorough preparation is also essential; the Dao Yi Sect would not underestimate any opponent.

When caution is called for, the Dao Yi Sect is absolutely a cautious one.

"I say, Shī xiōng, do we still need to bury them? This is already the tenth Talisman Seal, right."

Just like now, a Wind Harmony Sect disciple stared at Xu Jie before him with a strange expression, his whole body numb.

Same spot, burying Talisman Seals and Formation Disks back and forth—this is already the tenth Talisman Seal; what are you trying to do?

But regarding this, Xu Jie said quite naturally.

"Just in case."

Huh??? You damn call this 'just in case'? Is this 'just in case' a bit too much?

That aside, Xu Jie then came up with some Talisman Seal Formation, directly leaving the Wind Harmony Sect disciples bewildered.

They had seen Formations, they had seen Talisman Seals, but damn they'd never seen a Talisman Seal Formation before—what the hell is this?

"Shī xiōng, what's a Talisman Seal Formation? Does such a thing even exist under heaven?"

"Oh, I invented it myself—using a special layout, I place the Talisman Seals in special positions, then combine different types to produce an effect similar to a Formation."

Huh???

Although I don't quite understand, it somehow feels kinda powerful.

For several days straight they set traps in the city; anyway, the people of all major forces were not doing well—the Dao Yi Sect's methods were many things they had never heard of.

"Damn, is the Xiūliàn system of Dongzhou different from ours?"

"No way, I went to Dongzhou when I was young—it's far behind ours."

"What does this Talisman Seal Formation mean? Explain it to me."

"This......... I............."

At a loss for words, but after days of effort, the inside of the Ten Thousand Demon Pass is now a veritable net of heaven and earth—even a random corner might have more than ten Talisman Seals buried.

The people of all major forces roughly estimated the number of Talisman Seals and Formation Disks used this time.

Upon this calculation, everyone was stunned—damn near two hundred thousand Talisman Seals were used, many of them high-grade, and the Formation Disks exceeded a hundred thousand.

Damn, are Talisman Seals free or Formation Disks free?

This is all money, it's Xiūliàn resources.

Some smaller Sects, seeing this, were almost heartbroken to tears.

Even if you sold their whole Sect, you probably couldn't scrape together that many Talisman Seals and Formation Disks.

Good-for-nothings, many cultivators gained a new understanding of the Dao Yi Sect.

However, this is just the Dao Yi Sect's usual style—whenever they act, they definitely hit you with a wave of Talisman Seals and Formation Disks first, then follow up; Xiūliàn resources, they can always find a way to get them.

The Dao Yi Sect side is already fully prepared, while the Crimson Dragon Demon Emperor here has also gathered all his demon beasts, ready to launch an assault on the Ten Thousand Demon Pass.

"Qingtian Holy Lord, are you sure there's no problem?"

"Rest assured, tomorrow night's attack—I'll have someone open the city gate; by then you just charge in."

Heaven-Supporting Shèngzhǔ said calmly, he had naturally arranged it, but those few saints, upon turning around, told this to Qi Xiong, and afterwards Qi Xiong had long ago dispatched Absolute Shadow to closely monitor every move of the Demon Race.

Junior Sister, I'll leave this to you; you just need to figure out the Demon Race's movements.

Senior Brother, rest assured.

Absolute Shadow, who has broken through to Great Saint, even a Demon Emperor would hardly detect her if she didn't court death by staying too close, after all she is the Shadow Peak Peak Master; in terms of concealment skills, none in the Dao Yi Sect can surpass her.

Upon hearing Heaven-Supporting Shèngzhǔ's affirmative reply, the Azure Dragon Demon Emperor's eyes flashed with a smile.

Remember what you promised.

I know.

Good.

After ending contact, the Azure Dragon Demon Emperor quickly summoned his demon kings and issued the attack order.

All along, the Demon Race and Human Race have been locked in battle at the Myriad Demon Pass, each having victories and defeats, but the Demon Race has never been able to conquer the Myriad Demon Pass.

But this time, the Azure Dragon Demon Emperor saw hope of victory, and all this is thanks to Heaven-Supporting Shèngzhǔ.

Heaven-Supporting Shèngzhǔ, I, the emperor, truly want to thank you; if not for you, how could I have the chance to achieve this unprecedented merit?

At the same time the Azure Dragon Demon Emperor was lamenting, on the other side, inside the Myriad Demon Pass, Qi Xiong stood on the city wall and likewise sighed.

Heaven-Supporting Shèngzhǔ, you are the blessing of my Dao Yi Sect; if not for you, how could this demon emperor ingredient deliver itself to my mouth?
