That treasure could help God Refining Realm cultivators ascend to become Gurus in the Hollow Void Stage, and it was said to be usable three times, enough for both her and Jiang Baiye.

But Yun Miaoyi wasn’t sure if she could invite Jiang Baiye, for the relic was within the Yinyang Sect’s domain, and this righteous fairy entering would take a great risk.

Moreover, the current situation was not favorable, and Yun Miaoyi was also not keen on going to the Daqian Empire’s territory, fearing she might encounter trouble.

“Forget it, I’ll prepare some more,” Yun Miaoyi sighed after a long hesitation.

There were still two years until the emergence of the relic; if a year and a half later she still felt uncertain, it wouldn’t be too late to invite Jiang Baiye then.

Demon Domain.

The Demon Domain was vast, close to half as large as the combined size of the Devil Region, Xuan Domain, and Dao Domain. Nearly all the Demon Clan lived here.

Going further south, there was the South Sea, where many demons also dwelled.

In the center of the Demon Domain stood a Divine Mountain towering over a million zhang tall, known as Myriad Demon Mountain.

Myriad Demon Mountain was the heart of the Demon Clan, as well as their most critical location. Here, a great number of demons with profound cultivation resided.

It was said that during the Ancient Era, this place was home to over ten thousand True Martial Realm Demon Kings, Divine Yuan Realm Demon Emperors, Tongxuan Realm great demons, and even Holy Abyss Realm saintly demons. It could be described as a time of splendid glory.

But the Ancient Era had long passed, and the glory of Myriad Demon Mountain was no more. Whether there were still thirty True Martial Realm Demon Kings was uncertain, and there were very few Demon Emperors of the Divine Yuan Realm left. No one knew if there were still any Tongxuan Realm great demons.

At this moment, atop Myriad Demon Mountain, within a grand hall emanating a dense demonic aura, there were eleven figures.

One of the figures was seated at the top, while the other ten sat on either side, most of them in human form.

“Gentlemen, the Heavenly Demon Dao Wheel has moved, sending out a message: The legendary Flood Dragon Ball is about to appear, right in Leizhou of the Daqian Empire,” said Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing with an excited tone.

Gazing at the ten Demon Kings below, the Demon Emperor’s voice carried a hint of excitement.

“What? The Flood Dragon Ball truly exists?”

“What are we waiting for? Let’s head to Leizhou immediately and seize the Flood Dragon Ball.”

“Indeed, the ancient Flood Dragon Saint is also one of our demon lineage, and her Dragon Ball should rightfully be inherited by our Demon Clan.”

“That is true, but if we truly advance into the Qian Dynasty, the warriors of the Human Clan will not sit idly by; it may trigger the fourth great war between humans and demons.”

“Yes, we are not yet prepared. The Demon Clan suffered a severe blow in the war ten thousand years ago and has not yet recovered, while the Human Clan has been flourishing. If we initiate the battle, they might exterminate us without mercy.”

The ten Demon Kings debated loudly, the argument becoming incessant, dividing into three factions each holding firm to their views, unable to persuade one another.

“Enough!”

With a cold snort from Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing, the ten Demon Kings immediately fell silent and looked toward the Demon Emperor.

“Although the Flood Dragon Ball is important, our clan can’t wage war with the Human Clan just yet. Not only have we not yet recovered, but the Barbarian Clan hasn’t either. Even if both clans joined forces, we are still no match for the Human Clan.”

“After discussing with the other three Demon Emperors, a decision has been made: to dispatch an early-stage True Martial Realm Demon King to lead two Myriad Phenomena Realm to contend for the Flood Dragon Ball.”

“The infighting within the Human Clan is severe; as long as we don’t mobilize on a large scale, the other human forces won’t interfere.”

“Yes!”

The ten Demon Kings exchanged glances and agreed.

While the opinions of the Demon Kings were important, the final decision still lay with the Demon Emperors. Once the Demon Emperors had discussed and agreed, the Demon Kings could only execute the orders, without any objection.

As the ten Demon Kings departed, Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing let out a sigh, feeling a bit weary.

Although the Demon Clan had long lifespans, their cultivation speed was much slower than that of the Human Clan. In the last great war, the Demon and Barbarian Clans were defeated, but the Human Clan didn’t fare well either, losing a large number of strong warriors, just not as many as the defeated Demon and Barbarian Clans.

Yet, human warriors emerged quickly, continuously coming to the fore, and rose rapidly. In just five thousand years, they had returned to their pre-war levels, and in the following five thousand years, their strength only grew stronger.

The Demon and Barbarian Clans, however, were far behind, their vital energy yet to recover and only at about sixty percent of their pre-war level.

After the Ancient Era, the Human, Demon, and Barbarian Clans vied for supremacy in the Divine Continent, each seeking to establish their legitimate status.

Seventy thousand years ago, the Human Clan ultimately prevailed, occupying the essence of the Divine Continent. The Demon Clan was driven to the furthest south, and the Barbarian Clan to the furthest north.

Both the southern and northern lands were poor in cultivation resources compared to other domains, with thinner Spiritual Energy and harsher environments. Separated, the two clans also found it difficult to join forces.

Naturally, the Demon and Barbarian Clans were unsatisfied, silently preparing for twenty thousand years before initiating the second great war between the three clans, this time the Demon and Barbarian Clans jointly attacking the Human Clan.

The war raged for a thousand years, and in the end, the Human Clan emerged victorious, with the Demon and Barbarian Clans suffering another defeat. Yet all three clans were left greatly weakened again.

Forty thousand years later, the Demon and Barbarian Clans made a comeback. This time, they did not aim to defeat the Human Clan but rather sought to expand their territories as much as possible, for instance, to each occupy a domain of the Human Clan.

Then the Demon and Barbarian Clans failed again and until now are still licking their wounds.

Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing stepped out of the grand hall, looking toward the land of the Human Clan in the north, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

The infighting among the Human Clan never ceased; strong individuals rose quickly, but deaths were also rampant. Nevertheless, they were still far stronger than the more united Demon and Barbarian Clans.

“Sigh, I hope we can obtain the Flood Dragon Ball this time,” sighed Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing.

Thinking of the Demon King and the two Demon Clan Grandmasters she had dispatched, her heart felt somewhat relieved, believing this lineup should be sufficient.

The Demon Clan was known for its discipline, and with only two Grandmasters and one Demon King sent out, Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing was sure that the other forces of the Human Clan would not interfere, as the most top-tier forces of humanity had always behaved in this manner.

Although Prince Wu’an was strong, he was only at the first tier of combat ability in the True Martial Realm. As long as that hidden True Martial Realm figure from the Daqian Empire didn’t take action, the Demon Clan had a good chance of seizing the Flood Dragon Ball.

Even if other human forces’ Emperor Wu wanted to intervene, as long as they were only at the early stage of the True Martial Realm, there was still a chance; they would rely on their skills.

PS: Here’s an easter egg, there’s a picture of the Empress that I created by hand later on; it’s quite nice.

Well, as usual, I’m asking for monthly tickets and rewards.
