Chapter 358: Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart, Sixth Rank Book Gu, Sealing It

~37 min read 7,344 words

This is because the remaining three Heart Eyes are incomparably powerful; for an ordinary Cultivator, successfully cultivating them is an almost impossible task.

"The fifth Heart Eye, Heart Eye Direct Death, can see the Death Line and perceive an enemy's weakness. As long as one cuts along the death line, the enemy can be thoroughly killed, even if they possess an immortal body."

"The sixth Heart Eye, Heart Eye Prediction, can peer into the near future and predict an enemy's movements. Within a few minutes, any action taken by the enemy can be known like the back of one's hand."

"The seventh Heart Eye, Heart Eye Peering into the Dao, possesses the ability to peer into the Heavenly Dao."

Zhou Sui's eyes flickered.

It could be said that this was the full extent of the seven abilities he had obtained from the Seven Apertures Exquisite Book.

Each Heart Eye contained unimaginable power.

Especially the final few Heart Eyes; each one was extremely powerful, beyond imagination.

They were like supreme divine abilities.

It was no wonder that the deceased Changchun Daoist used the Seven Apertures Exquisite Book to test his Disciples.

If someone truly could successfully cultivate this Immortal Technique, they would undoubtedly be a peerless genius.

Even if they ascended to the Immortal World, they would be a top-tier immortal.

The pity is that, currently, apart from Zhou Sui, no one else has been able to successfully cultivate this technique.

At most, successfully cultivating one Heart Eye is already considered extremely remarkable.

Boom—

Thinking of this, Zhou Sui's heart stirred, and he immediately opened his Virtual Panel to see his current physical data.

"Sure enough, after advancing to Spirit Severing, the cultivation speed has dropped quite a bit."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

He had already perceived the difficulty of cultivation at the Spirit Severing stage.

One must know that he had Spirit Wine and even the assistance of his Dao Companions for his cultivation, yet after a hundred years of bitter practice, he had only increased his progress by 20%.

If it were an ordinary Spirit Severing Initial Stage Cultivator, it would likely be impossible to advance to the Spirit Severing Mid-Stage even after a thousand years of bitter practice.

In fact, this is the case.

The vast majority of the many Spirit Severing Cultivators born in the Immortal Cultivation World are only at the Spirit Severing Initial Stage.

They have no chance in this lifetime to cultivate to the Spirit Transformation Completion realm.

The reason for this situation is as follows.

Naturally, it is because the environment of the Immortal Cultivation World is not very suitable for the cultivation of Spirit Severing Cultivators; one must ascend to the Spirit World to improve cultivation efficiency and have a chance to advance to higher realms in the future.

Unless the level of the Immortal Cultivation World rises, advancing to the same level as the Spirit World.

Only then can the cultivation of the Cultivators in the Immortal Cultivation World progress rapidly.

"However, there is no need to rush."

"If I can merge the three great worlds and cause the level of the Immortal Cultivation World to rise."

"In that case, even without ascending to the Spirit World, staying in the Immortal Cultivation World would allow one to advance to higher realms."

Zhou Sui stroked his chin.

To tell the truth, he could take out the Evergreen Immortal Vine and merge the three worlds at any time.

But he needs to choose a better opportunity.

It would be best if the Demon Race and the Demon-Monster Race both suffer heavy losses, fighting until the sky turns dark, and then the Human Race reaps the benefits.

In this way, the Human Race would have the opportunity to unify the entire world and gain the upper hand over the Demon Race and the Demon-Monster Race.

Otherwise, it is uncertain who would be in charge of the world after the merger.

"Not bad, not bad, the hundred arts of immortal cultivation have also improved."

Zhou Sui continued to check the various skills he possessed.

His alchemy, runes, artifact refining, sword dao, and other skills had all been elevated to the fifth-tier realm.

Clearly, the improvement in his cultivation had also driven the improvement of his skills, allowing him to make great progress.

The only thing that did not improve much was his Array Formation cultivation.

But there was no help for that.

Because if the cultivation of the Array Heart Gu is to improve, it still needs to devour and invade higher-level arrays.

The problem is that the highest-level arrays in the Immortal Cultivation World are only at the fifth-tier superior level.

Even if the Array Heart Gu is powerful, it is impossible for it to break through to the sixth rank.

This is a case of a clever housewife being unable to cook without rice.

Of course, for now, a Cultivator of Five-Tier Array Formations is sufficient for the Immortal Cultivation World.

Even if one were to truly reach the Sixth Rank level, I fear it would be impossible to set up a Six-Tier Array in the Immortal Cultivation World.

Because without a Sixth Rank Spirit Vein, a Six-Tier Array would be nothing more than a decoration if set up.

"The Ancient Profound Turtle Art has finally been upgraded to the third level."

Zhou Sui smiled slightly.

Over these past hundred years, besides practicing the Seven Apertures Exquisite Book, he had also focused on cultivating the Ancient Profound Turtle Art.

After all, this is a supreme defensive technique, with infinite mysteries.

As a cautious person like him, he naturally wanted to raise this technique to an extremely high level.

In this way, his safety would be greatly improved.

Boom~~

In an instant, with a movement of his mind, he immediately circulated the Ancient Profound Turtle Art.

Centered on his body, three layers of Ancient Profound Turtle shells emerged, forming a triple barrier, upon which countless turtle shells and numerous turtle shell patterns appeared.

His entire body was wrapped in the three-layered Mysterious Turtle Cover, with no blind spots in three hundred and sixty degrees.

No matter where the enemy attacked from, it would be impossible to find any weakness within.

"Tsk tsk, such a powerful defense from the Mysterious Turtle barrier, even for a Transformation Spirit Mid-Stage."

"No, even for a Spirit Severing Perfection Cultivator, I fear it would be extremely difficult to break through this layer of turtle shell."

Zhou Sui was very satisfied, feeling full of a sense of security.

Even though his skin was the skin of a divine elephant, which possessed super-strong defense in itself.

But no one would be foolish enough to expose their own body to an enemy's attack.

If the enemy's attack could really penetrate his skin, wouldn't he be done for?!

Therefore, the Ancient Profound Turtle Art is still a quite important defensive technique.

This is equivalent to the first layer of defense.

And his divine elephant skin belongs to the second layer of defense.

When the enemy painstakingly breaks through the Mysterious Turtle Cover, they will find that his body's defense is even more ferocious.

It can be called impervious to swords and spears, and immune to all techniques.

I fear that at that moment, the enemy would be completely desperate.

"It is a pity that the Spirit Root aptitude still cannot be raised to the Heavenly Spirit Root level."

Zhou Sui felt a bit regretful.

He had originally thought that his First Grade Spiritual Root was only a step away from a Heavenly Spirit Root and could break through at any time.

But he still underestimated this bottleneck too much.

This realm is equivalent to the barrier from ascending from Nascent Soul to Spirit Severing.

Wanting to break through is extremely difficult, like a natural chasm.

If Heavenly Spirit Roots were really that easy to obtain, then Heavenly Spirit Root Cultivators in the world would not be so rare.

It can only be said that he still needs a long time before he can slowly improve his Spirit Root.

One cannot be anxious about such things; this is what is called "haste makes waste."

In fact, his slow cultivation in the Spirit Severing realm also has a great deal to do with his First Grade Spiritual Root aptitude.

If he possessed a Heavenly Spirit Root, his cultivation speed would increase by more than several times.

"Eh, the Book Gu has actually reached the Sixth Rank low-grade level."

"When exactly did this happen?"

At this very moment, Zhou Sui was taken aback.

He had not expected that the Book Gu on his person had actually broken through silently and soundlessly from the Fifth-tier mid-grade realm, and by now, it had reached the Sixth Rank low-grade level.

It can be said that the growth speed of the Book Gu can now rival the Infatuation Gu, belonging to the two highest-level Gu Insects on him.

Of course, the reason he didn't notice.

That was because he had been in closed-door cultivation, hoping to outline the fourth Heart Eye, and was completely focused, so he did not notice that the Book Gu had received an astonishing upgrade, actually reaching the Sixth Rank level.

Swoosh!

He sensed that the Book Gu deep in his mind was emitting a faint white light, with dense characters appearing on its body, as if countless books were floating within it, containing the power of infinite wisdom.

The current Book Gu is no longer just as simple as a Xuni Tushuguan.

Nor is it as simple as just storing books and knowledge.

Rumble~~~

At this moment, a massive amount of information was instantly infused from the Book Gu, sinking into the depths of his sea of consciousness.

"Sixth Rank Book Gu, the internal space has been further expanded, evolving into a virtual continent."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

His Soul instantly sank into the internal world of the Book Gu.

At this moment, he sensed that earth-shaking changes had occurred inside the Book Gu; what was originally just a kingdom of books inside has now evolved into a boundless and endless land.

On this endless land, one after another, massive kingdoms of books have formed.

Every Immortal Scripture seems to be a massive book kingdom.

Even on this endless continent, rivers, mountains, mountain ranges, numerous valleys, and even many plants are all condensed from books.

Everything on this continent is transformed from book after book.

Clearly, it contains the infinite wisdom and crystallization of the Human Race of the Immortal Cultivation World.

"It seems that feeding it a large quantity of books, Inheritance Jade Slips, and even Immortal Scriptures has indeed been effective."

Zhou Sui smiled slightly.

One must know that ever since the Xuanhuang Sect unified the Canglan Sea, the books from sects such as the Xuanbao Pavilion, Tianjian Sect, Sunset Sect, Heavenly Demon Sect, Black Fiend Hall, and Xuanyin Sect had all been obtained by him.

All these numerous books were fed to the Book Gu.

Of course, the main event among them was naturally the various Immortal Scriptures obtained from beside the remains of immortals.

The knowledge contained in every single Immortal Scripture was quite astonishing.

It was simply not something that books from the mortal world could compare to.

If one were to use Spirit Medicine as a comparison, they would be like stalks of Immortal Medicine.

The benefits brought about by consuming them can be imagined.

It was precisely because of this that after these Immortal Scriptures were eaten by the Book Gu, it immediately underwent an astonishing evolution.

In a mere hundred years, it had advanced to the Sixth Rank low-grade realm.

Moreover, its power was still continuously increasing, with no sign of stopping.

After all, the Book Gu had not yet devoured all the Immortal Scriptures, having only consumed a few.

Because according to the Book Gu's ability, it could not digest so many at once.

"Is this the ability of a Sixth Rank Book Gu?"

With a movement of Zhou Sui's consciousness, he once again sensed streams of information from the Book Gu; these were the various abilities possessed by the Book Gu.

【Ability 1: Thought Acceleration. It can increase the Host's thinking speed by ten thousand times, and at the same time, it can improve the Host's comprehension, allowing the Host's comprehension to reach the level of a peerless genius.】

【Ability 2: Deduction and Analysis. It can continuously deduce cultivation techniques, divine abilities, Pill Dao, and so on, and can even perfect incomplete cultivation techniques and find the flaws within them.】

【Ability 3: Virtual Contract. It can create a piece of virtual contract, which is the unique contract power of the Book Gu. Anyone who signs the virtual contract can connect to the internal virtual space of the Book Gu.】

And the Book Gu can also use the contract to mobilize the soul power of any person who has signed the contract, can obtain the soul memories of the person who signed the contract, and at the same time absorb the wisdom of countless living beings.

Suddenly, Zhou Sui perceived the formidable nature of the Sixth Rank Book Gu.

It was more than ten times stronger than before.

If he were to use the power of the Sixth Rank Book Gu to comprehend the Seven Apertures Exquisite Book, the efficiency would likely be many times higher than before.

"Virtual Contract?"

"If it is like this, wouldn't it be possible to manufacture a virtual Communication Device?"

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

He immediately thought of a way to use this ability.

If every Cultivator could enter the internal world of the Book Gu, then they could also obtain a Virtual Panel.

This Virtual Panel could not only transmit messages.

At the same time, it could also serve as a bank card to trade all kinds of Treasure.

It can be said that this would definitely be a huge revolution for the Immortal Cultivation World, causing the Immortal Cultivation World to undergo earth-shaking changes.

Of course, for the Book Gu, such benefits are also self-evident.

If numerous Cultivators signed the contract, then the soul memories and wisdom of these Cultivators would all be absorbed by the Book Gu, becoming nutrients for the Book Gu's growth.

In this way, the growth speed of the Book Gu would also be very astonishing.

After all, the books in the world are limited, but the wisdom of all living beings is infinite.

To make the Book Gu grow rapidly, it is still necessary to borrow the power of all living beings.

"It seems the Sixth Rank Book Gu has also gestated a divine ability—Seal of Books."

"Once this divine ability is unleashed, it can seal all living beings and matter within books."

"If one encounters an enemy with an undying body, one can temporarily seal the opponent."

Zhou Sui moved his consciousness.

He felt that he had instantly learned this powerful divine ability.

Although it did not have much powerful combat strength, it contained formidable auxiliary capabilities.

After all, not every enemy needs to be killed.

At this time, the Seal of Books would play a quite significant role.

One could completely use the Seal of Books to temporarily imprison the enemy and seal them within a book.

Half an hour later.

Zhou Sui consolidated his cultivation slightly and walked out of the Cave Abode.

At this very moment, his wives and concubines were also staying in the room, chatting away.

Each of them was dressed in thin gauze, revealing proud figures, extremely alluring, not at all afraid of revealing their charms.

After many years of cultivation, their physiques had become increasingly perfect.

"How long is Husband going to remain in seclusion? It's been a month already."

"It should be soon, I guess. It is said that this time Husband is going to practice the Seven Apertures Exquisite Book. This is a powerful Immortal Technique; apart from Husband, no one else can learn it."

"As expected of Husband, he can even learn an Immortal Technique. If only we could bear a son or daughter for Husband, but our relations are quite frequent, so why can we never conceive?"

"There is no help for it; Husband's bloodline is too strong, so the probability of pregnancy is naturally very low."

"That is indeed the case. Perhaps we need to use some special Secret Technique to be able to conceive."

"When Husband comes out of seclusion, we must ask him about it to see if there is any similar Secret Technique. We have been married for so long, yet we have no son or daughter; it is too absurd."

"I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Even if there are no children, wouldn't it be nice for us to grow old together? Besides, now that the three realms are merging, it is not a good time for pregnancy. At the very least, we must resolve the threat of the Demon Race and the demon tribes."

"That is indeed the case. If we were pregnant and the Demon Race and demon tribes attacked, it would be terrible."

Qian Ziyun and the others chatted away.

"Ahem."

At this moment, Zhou Sui also appeared in the room and coughed, signaling that he had finished his seclusion.

It could be said that these dozen or so women were so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't even notice he had come out of seclusion.

"Husband."

At this time, Qian Ziyun and the others heard the sound and immediately saw Zhou Sui at the doorway.

Every one of them was filled with joy.

After all, Zhou Sui had been in seclusion for at least a month to successfully condense his fourth Heart Eye.

As the saying goes, a day apart is like three autumns.

They had missed him dearly.

They crowded around him one by one, their eyes brimming with affection, as if they wanted to devour Zhou Sui.

"It seems you haven't been slacking off during this time; your cultivation has progressed significantly."

Zhou Sui swept his divine sense across them and immediately sensed that his Dao Companions' cultivation levels had improved greatly.

After all, they had not wasted their time over the past hundred years.

Ji Bingyu, Mu Ziyan, Xia Jingyan, Leng Yuexi, Shen Biqian, Lin Yazhu, Chu Dieyi, as well as Chuntao, Xiatao, Qiutao, and Dongtao and other Dao Companions had all successively advanced to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

As for Xia Shuiyang and Taohua Shangren, they were still at the Nascent Soul Late Stage, but they were infinitely close to the Nascent Soul perfection; it was estimated that in a little while, they could attempt to advance to Spirit Severing.

Qian Ziyun and Ye Feirou were still at the Spirit Severing Initial Stage.

After all, they had only advanced to the Spirit Severing Initial Stage not long ago, so it was impossible for them to progress too quickly.

Of course, they had also become familiar with the power of the Spirit Severing realm and had become Proficient in mastering the various abilities of a Transformation God.

Their combat power was naturally several times stronger than it had been a hundred years ago.

"That goes without saying."

"Although our cultivation progress speed is not as fast as yours, Husband."

"But compared to cultivators of the same rank, our progress speed is still quite considerable."

"It is estimated that in a few hundred years, we can also attempt to advance to Spirit Severing."

Ji Bingyu smiled slightly.

She felt deeply moved inside.

Back when she stayed on Xianxia Island, she was just a stranded Qi Refining female cultivator.

Even becoming a Foundation Establishment Cultivator was a luxury.

But now, not only had she become a Nascent Soul Cultivator, but becoming a Spirit Severing Venerable was not impossible either.

In her eyes, she might even be able to attain immortality and the Dao in the future.

Such a change was truly too great.

She had never expected to have such an encounter herself.

It could only be said that her judgment was indeed excellent to have found such a husband.

That was why she had the achievements she had today.

Rumble—

Zhou Sui had originally wanted to say something, but suddenly, the sky shook and the earth quaked; a terrifying vibration spread from the depths of the sea, permeating the entire Canglan Sea and even the Immortal Cultivation World.

All cultivators could feel this strange vibration, which stirred up a massive Spirit Qi storm.

"What is going on?"

Leng Yuexi and the others were immediately shocked.

Because such an astonishing celestial phenomenon appearing suddenly was likely no small matter.

"The Boundary Gate has developed a problem."

"I fear that after such a long period of gestation, the Boundary Gate has completely matured."

"It is fully capable of allowing beings of the Spirit Severing realm to cross over."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

He communicated with the Luck Gu and instantly understood the ins and outs of this matter.

At this very moment, the aura of calamity on his body surged instantly, as if dark clouds were covering his head.

Clearly, after the Boundary Gate had completely matured, it was not a good thing for him.

This meant that Spirit Severing Venerables from the Ancient Demon World and the Ancient Demon World could enter the Immortal Cultivation World.

For the Human Race and for the Xuanhuang Sect, this was a massive disaster.

After all, as the only Human hegemon and Spirit Severing sect in the Canglan Sea, they would naturally bear the brunt of it.

If the enemy wanted to wipe out the Human Race in the Canglan Sea.

The first target to be eliminated would be the Xuanhuang Sect.

"How could it be so fast? Wasn't it said there was still one or two hundred years left?"

Ye Feirou was very surprised.

She had originally thought that the Xuanhuang Sect still had a long time to prepare for the threat from the Ancient Demon World and the Ancient Demon World, but she had not expected the threat and the calamity to arrive faster than she had imagined.

This also made her nervous immediately.

Because no one knew exactly how many Spirit Severing Venerables were coming from the Ancient Demon World and the Ancient Demon World.

Or just how powerful their strength was.

"There should have been one or two hundred years left."

"But clearly, the sudden fusion of the Ancient Demon World has accelerated the growth of the Boundary Gate."

"This caused the Ancient Demon Gate and the Ancient Demon Gate to grow rapidly, reaching a level sufficient to accommodate Spirit Severing Venerables."

Zhou Sui said in a deep voice.

"Husband, if this is the case, then what should we do?"

"Should we initiate the plan for the fusion of the three worlds now?"

Qian Ziyun looked at Zhou Sui.

She knew that her husband had always wanted to push for the plan to fuse the three worlds, making the Immortal Cultivation World evolve into a world comparable to the Spirit World.

Once successful, they would not need to ascend to the Spirit World.

But the prerequisite was that this world must be controlled by the Human Race.

If it were controlled by the Demon Race and the Demon Clan, then it would be working for others' benefit, which would be a loss that outweighs the gain.

"No rush."

"Let's first see how the situation in the Ancient Demon World and the Ancient Demon World is."

"Perhaps we can take the opportunity to wipe out a batch of Transformation God Demon Cultivators and Transformation God Demon Clan members."

"This can also alleviate the pressure on the Human Race."

A Cold Glow appeared in Zhou Sui's eyes.

To be honest, having advanced to the Spirit Severing Initial Stage, he no longer cared much about the threat of the Demon Race and the Demon Clan.

Even if the opponent dispatched a Spirit Transformation Completion Cultivator, they could do nothing to him.

He might even kill them in return.

If it were a Cultivator of the same rank, then it would be one death for every one that came.

Throughout the Immortal Cultivation World, many Boundary Gates from the Ancient Demon World were actually gradually disappearing, turning into countless specks of light.

These specks of light gathered together and merged into other Boundary Gates.

In the end, only eighteen Boundary Gates from the Ancient Demon World remained, scattered throughout the Immortal Cultivation World.

There were also three Ancient Demon Gates that appeared in the Canglan Sea.

At this very moment, in the Ancient Demon World, at the Ten Thousand Demon Palace.

Transformation God members of the Jiaolong Clan, Demon Phoenix Clan, Tiger Clan, Fox Clan, Whale Clan, Five Elements Scale Clan, Eagle Clan, and others gathered together, each with a very grave expression.

Because the current situation was not optimistic.

They had underestimated the power and terror of the Demon Clan; it was simply beyond imagination.

In just a short hundred years, the Demon Race had lost half of its territory, and who knew how many Monster Beasts had died.

More importantly, a large number of Monster Beasts were invaded by Demon Qi and successively transformed into Demon Clan members.

This also caused the Demon Race to suffer heavy losses; their strength grew smaller the more they fought, while the Demon Clan grew stronger the more they fought.

"Sigh, what should we do now?"

"The Demon Clan is powerful, and Transformation God Demon Clan members emerge one after another."

"Relying on our strength, I fear we cannot contend with the Demon Clan."

A Transformation God-level Demon Phoenix said helplessly.

It felt despair, feeling that there was simply no hope of defeating the Demon Clan.

If things continued like this, even they, these Transformation God Demon Cultivators, would be killed by the Demon Clan.

"Blame those old things; they actually saw the situation was bad and activated the Ascension Platform, ascending directly to the Spirit World."

"They didn't care about the life or death of our Demon Race at all."

Another Transformation God-level Jiaolong gritted its teeth, filled with resentment.

Originally, the situation at the Ten Thousand Demon Palace was not as bad as imagined; if everyone had united as one, they could have stood on equal footing with the Demon Clan and resisted for a period of time, not to the point of collapse.

Who could have imagined that some old antiques, seeing the situation was bad, would successively activate the Ascension Platform.

They ascended to the Spirit World almost immediately, abandoning the Ancient Demon World.

This also caused the strength of the Demon Race to be greatly damaged.

One could imagine, the war hadn't even started yet, and many leaders had already run away; where was there any morale to speak of.

"Sigh, the reason the Human Race of the Ancient Era was able to contend with the Demon Clan..."

"... was that every Transformation God was ready to die."

"It was because that Kurong Sect Sect Master took action in advance, destroyed the Ascension Platform of the Immortal Cultivation World, and cut off the retreat for Transformation God Cultivators."

"In this way, all the Transformation God Cultivators of the Immortal Cultivation World, not wanting to die, could only fight a desperate battle."

"But us? Because we had a way out, our minds were divided, which is why we were beaten back step by step."

A Tiger Clan Transformation God said very helplessly.

Although the Demon Race looked like one race, in fact, it was a super race gathered from countless small races; internally, it was not very united, and there were even many contradictions.

If they were always winning, then such contradictions would not erupt.

But once they failed, the internal contradictions of the Demon Race would immediately erupt, leading to mutual accusations and falling apart.

Compared to the Human Race, they were more prone to division.

"Let's migrate to the Immortal Cultivation World."

At this time, an Eagle Clan Transformation God put forward their suggestion.

"What do you mean? Migrate to the Immortal Cultivation World?"

"You don't mean to borrow the power of the Human Race to contend with the Demon Clan, do you? Are you trying to drive the wolf to swallow the tiger?"

"To be honest, such a plan cannot possibly succeed."

"Even we, the Demon Race, cannot contend with the Demon Clan; if the mere Human Race were to face the Demon Clan, I fear they would be utterly defeated."

"The current Human Race is not the Human Race of the Ancient Era; their strength is too far apart, and there are not even a few Transformation God Cultivators."

A Jiaolong Clan Transformation God shook its head, feeling that this plan of driving the wolf to swallow the tiger could not possibly succeed.

"Who wants to drive the wolf to swallow the tiger?"

"Even if I were any stupider, I would not want to rely on the power of the Human Race to contend with the Demon Clan."

"It is just that I feel this battle, whether it be for the Demon Race or the Human Race, has no chance of victory at all."

"Although I feel very sorry toward our race, we also need to think about our own future."

"We cannot truly coexist and perish with the race, dying in this place."

That Eagle Clan Deity Transformation stage expert said gloomily.

Clearly, according to the meaning in its words, it also wanted to run away and ascend to the Spirit World.

"Are you thinking of ascending to the Spirit World?"

"The problem is that the Ascension Platform was destroyed by the Demon Clan long ago."

"Even the many Space Nodes to ascend to the Spirit World have been affected by the power of the Demon Clan and cannot be used at all."

"Now we have no way to escape."

Many Deity Transformation Demon Cultivators said helplessly.

To tell the truth, it was not that they did not want to escape, it was just that it was already too late.

The entire Ancient Demon World was covered by the power of the Demon Clan, many Ascension Platforms were destroyed, and the Space Nodes were sealed.

Now they were just turtles in a jar.

That is why they were so resentful; those old antiques had run away themselves and ignored them, the younger generation.

This resulted in them being left in the Ancient Demon World to coexist and perish with the Demon Race.

"That is why I want to go to the Immortal Cultivation World."

"Currently, the Immortal Cultivation World has not been polluted by the power of the Demon World."

"Although the Ascension Platform has disappeared, there are still Space Nodes in existence."

"Once we find a Space Node, we can also ascend from the Immortal Cultivation World to the Spirit World."

"Although the risk is a bit greater, it is still better than dying here."

The Eagle Clan Deity Transformation stage expert said in a deep voice, stating its plan.

That was to head to the Immortal Cultivation World, search for a Space Node, and then ascend to the Spirit World.

This was the Demon Race Deity Transformation stage experts' plan to run away.

As for the life or death of other Monster Beasts, that was not within their scope of consideration.

"Listening to you, it seems you have already found a Space Node in the Immortal Cultivation World that can ascend to the Spirit World."

Quite a few Deity Transformation Demon Cultivators heard the other party's meaning.

"That is correct."

"In the past one or two hundred years, I have also had exchanges with Human Race Deity Transformation stage experts."

"Now, a cooperation has already been reached."

"I have also brought out a large amount of Fifth-tier materials to help set up a Five-Tier Array to open up the Space Node."

"So I have already cooperated with Human Race Deity Transformation stage experts to ascend to the Spirit World together."

The Eagle Clan Deity Transformation stage expert said as a matter of course.

In fact, the contradictions and hatred between the Human Race and the Demon Race are not unresolvable; the struggle between the two races is merely a struggle for benefits. Once they encounter a common enemy, they can cooperate just the same.

Although the Human Race Deity Transformation stage experts found a Space Node, they lacked the materials to set up the array.

The Demon Race Deity Transformation stage experts also wanted to take the opportunity to ascend.

Thus, the foundation for cooperation between the two sides was formed.

"If that is the case, it is not impossible to cooperate."

"But how many Human Race Deity Transformation stage experts are there in the Immortal Cultivation World? Could it be a trap?"

A Deity Transformation Demon Cultivator asked.

"Rest assured, the entire Immortal Cultivation World's Human Race Deity Transformation stage experts seem to only number a dozen or so at present."

"But our current Deity Transformation stage experts total over three hundred."

"In terms of numbers, our Demon Race Deity Transformation stage experts are more numerous and occupy an overwhelming advantage."

"If it weren't for the fact that the Boundary Gate was insufficient to accommodate us entering the Immortal Cultivation World before, we probably would have occupied this world long ago."

"Of course, it doesn't have much meaning now."

"Even if we can defeat the Human Race, we cannot defeat the Demon Clan."

The Eagle Clan Deity Transformation stage expert said very helplessly.

Clearly, it is precisely because of this situation that the Demon Race has no great interest in conquering the Human Race.

Even if they really occupied the Human Territory, it would only be temporary.

It would be snatched back by the Demon Clan at any time.

This also has no meaning.

Now they just want to run away and ascend to the Spirit World.

It is not that they have a choice in having such thoughts.

After all, the Demon Clan is truly too strong, with at least three thousand Deity Transformation stage demons in existence.

Their strength is far too much greater than theirs; they are simply not on the same level.

Plus, demons of the same level are difficult to kill.

One might ask, in such a case, how could there still be any chance of victory?

"If that is the case, it is indeed possible to cooperate with the Human Race."

Hearing this, many Demon Race Deity Transformation stage experts nodded.

After all, their numbers occupy an absolute advantage; no matter what, they will not be at a disadvantage.

They could even turn the tables.

"However, the Human Race Spirit Severing cultivators are no fools."

"They naturally know that our strength is far greater than theirs."

"So at the beginning, they only wanted to cooperate with five or six Demon Race Spirit Severing cultivators."

"Only after they ascend to the Spirit World will this Space Node belong to us."

The Eagle Clan Spirit Severing cultivator said in a deep voice.

Clearly, the Human Race's Spirit Severing cultivators could not possibly expose themselves to danger.

With three hundred Demon Race Spirit Severing cultivators joining forces, they would be no match.

If the other side had malicious intentions, the Human Race Spirit Severing cultivators might even be wiped out entirely.

So they naturally wanted to reduce the number of Demon Race partners.

Once they ascend to the Spirit World, they won't need to worry about the rest.

"Hmph, cunning humans."

"But this plan is not entirely unacceptable."

"It is also very beneficial to both sides."

The calculations in the minds of the many Demon Race Spirit Severing cultivators vanished instantly; originally, they had wanted to wipe out the Human Race Spirit Severing cultivators in one fell swoop, but the humans simply wouldn't give them that chance and had already planned their retreat.

But they would not give up on the cooperation either.

After all, how difficult it is to find a Space Node for ascension.

Even if one truly wanted to find one, it would require a massive amount of time and effort.

They might not necessarily have that much time.

If the Demon Clan were to occupy the Ancient Demon World and then free up their hands to strike at the Immortal Cultivation World.

By then, the Space Nodes of the Immortal Cultivation World would likely be useless.

Afterward, they might all end up dying here.

They also knew the gravity of the situation and naturally would not want both sides to suffer.

"Since that is the case, where should we meet?"

A Demon Race Spirit Severing cultivator asked.

"The Eastern Wasteland Continent."

"The Human Race Spirit Severing cultivators of the Immortal Cultivation World have found the location of a Space Node, right on the Eastern Wasteland Continent."

"When the time comes, we will just pass through the Boundary Gate and head directly to the Eastern Wasteland Continent."

The Eagle Clan Spirit Severing cultivator said straightforwardly.

"There is no time to lose, let us set off immediately."

The many Demon Race Spirit Severing cultivators were impatient to leave; they did not want to stay in such a dangerous place as the Ancient Demon World.

"You all go first."

"I have some matters that require me to head to the Canglan Sea."

A Jiaolong Clan Spirit Severing cultivator spoke up.

"So that's it, you want to deal with the Xuanhuang Sect of the Canglan Sea and take back the Jiaolong Clan's Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure, the Five Dragon Guillotine?" A Spirit Severing Demon Cultivator smiled slightly, as it understood the meaning behind the words of this Spirit Severing Jiaolong.

After all, the Jiaolong Clan had lost the Five Dragon Guillotine, and their strength had greatly declined.

As the supreme treasure of the Jiaolong Clan, it naturally could not be allowed to remain in human hands.

For them, this was simply a great humiliation.

"I heard that the Cultivator who obtained the Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure, the Five Dragon Guillotine, is none other than the Xuanhuang Sect Master."

"This person is the greatest genius of the Human Race in ten thousand years."

"Stepping into the Spirit Severing realm in a mere three hundred years, he can be called a heaven-sent talent."

"He has even mastered a Beast-Taming Method; who knows how many of our Demon Race cultivators he has enslaved."

"He can be called a great enemy of our Demon Race."

A Spirit Severing Demon Cultivator's expression was grave.

Although they had been dealing with the invasion of the Demon Clan during this time, they had never stopped gathering intelligence on the Immortal Cultivation World, and the sudden emergence of the Xuanhuang Sect and its unification of the Canglan Sea had also brought great trouble to the Demon Race.

What made them even more resentful was that this Xuanhuang Sect had actually mastered a method to enslave Monster Beasts.

Many fourth-tier Beasts had been captured by the Xuanhuang Sect and enslaved as the sect's guardian Spirit Beasts.

If it weren't for the fact that the Boundary Gate was not strong enough, these Spirit Severing Demon Cultivators would likely have killed their way over at the first opportunity to annihilate this human sect, because the existence of this human sect was simply a great humiliation to the Demon Race.

Without a doubt, if there were no Demon Clan invasion, this Xuanhuang Ancestor would certainly be an unprecedented enemy of the Demon Race and would definitely be targeted by the Demon Race.

They would not allow such a Human Race Cultivator to live.

"In the Ancient Era, there was also a Beast Taming Sect that appeared among the humans."

"They mastered the method of enslaving our Monster Beasts."

"But under the strikes of many Spirit Severing Demon Cultivators, it was finally wiped out."

"I didn't expect this Xuanhuang Sect to have actually inherited the orthodoxy of the former Beast Taming Sect; it is truly outrageous."

"If not for the Demon Clan invasion, we would definitely have attacked the Xuanhuang Sect to destroy such a vicious method."

Another Spirit Severing Demon Cultivator gritted its teeth.

It could not even imagine how angry it would be if it had been enslaved by a human cultivator long ago.

For the Demon Race, this was simply an unprecedented great enemy.

"Since that is the case, why don't we strike together and destroy this Xuanhuang Sect."

"In any case, the Xuanhuang Sect only has three Human Spirit Severing Initial Stage cultivators; they are not worth mentioning at all."

"If we join forces, the mere Xuanhuang Sect will be annihilated with a wave of our hands."

"After destroying the Xuanhuang Sect, you may also receive thirty percent of the treasures obtained from this Human sect."

The one speaking was a Deity Transformation stage expert of the Demon Phoenix Clan.

It also harbored immense resentment toward Xuanhuang Ancestor.

Because this person had also snatched away the Demon Phoenix Clan's Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure, the Qingluan True Fire Mirror.

The Demon Phoenix Clan also wished to snatch this Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure back at every moment.

Therefore, this time, the Jiaolong Clan and the Demon Phoenix Clan joined forces.

"Oh, that is indeed a decent plan."

"Although there is no need to destroy the Human Race, destroying a tiny Human Deity Transformation sect is not out of the question."

"It just so happens that I also want to eat a Human Deity Transformation expert; this is a great opportunity, I will join this plan."

"Hehe, I will pass; my ascension is imminent, so there is no need to create extra trouble. I will head to the Eastern Wasteland Continent instead; I wish you good luck."

"That's right, with so many Deity Transformation experts participating, even if we destroy that Xuanhuang Sect, there won't be many benefits to divide. I have no interest in participating."

The many Deity Transformation Demon Cultivators discussed the matter heatedly.

Clearly, some among them chose to follow the Jiaolong Clan and the Demon Phoenix Clan to the Canglan Sea.

Others intended to head directly to the Eastern Wasteland Continent and not get involved in these muddy waters.

After all, there were too many Deity Transformation Demon Cultivators participating this time, reaching one hundred in number, accounting for one-third of the total.

Even if they really destroyed the Xuanhuang Sect, they would not be able to divide many benefits.

Therefore, many Deity Transformation Demon Cultivators did not want to get involved in such matters; in any case, it was not their own clan's Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure.

"Very well, then I leave it to you all."

Seeing so many Deity Transformation Demon Cultivators eager to participate, that Deity Transformation Jiaolong was very satisfied, because the participation of so many Deity Transformation Demon Cultivators was more than enough, as the Xuanhuang Sect had at most three Deity Transformation experts.

If they charged over, they could flatten this Human sect in an instant.
