They had been wondering why the Sovereigns hadn't expressed their opinions when such a major incident had occurred in Perpetual Joy City. It was clear that there were more important matters than Perpetual Joy City that the Sovereigns couldn't afford to be distracted. Or perhaps it could be said that the incident in Perpetual Joy City couldn't be any more insignificant compared to this. It wasn't worth their attention at all.
Xiao Chen guessed that something big was going to happen, but very quickly, he received a message from the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. After that, Xiao Chen understood that what the Rulers were concerned about was much more important than he had thought.
The place where the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds had summoned him was strange. It was in Prison of Thunder. When Xiao Chen arrived, the leaders of the other eight peaks, as well as the new leader of Prison Flame Peak, were all there.
When Cang Xuan saw Xiao Chen, he waved at him. Xiao Chen walked forwards and bowed before Cang Xuan. Then, they all entered Thunder Prison.
When they arrived at the bottom of Thunder Prison, the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds was already waiting for them. At the same time, Zhan Tianlei, who had been captured before, and the other high-ranking members of Prison Flame Peak, were all imprisoned there.
"They're imprisoned at the bottom of Thunder Prison. What kind of crime did Zhan Tianlei and the others commit?" whispered the Leader of Blood Blade Peak.
Only those who had committed heinous crimes would be imprisoned at the bottom of Thunder Prison. They tried their best to control their astonishment and quickly walked up to the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. They all bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Ruler."
Following behind the peak masters, Xiao Chen was also secretly looking around. This was his first time in Thunder Prison. He had heard of the famous Thunder Prison a long time ago. However, the lowest level of the Thunder Prison gave him only one feeling. It was cold and damp, and the air seemed to be filled with the smell of death. As soon as he entered this place, he felt an irresistible sense of oppression.
Even warriors could feel the oppression at the bottom of the Thunder Prison. If an ordinary person were to enter it, it was no exaggeration to say that their mind would instantly collapse and they would become a walking corpse.
He didn't like the feeling of being at the bottom of Thunder Prison. At the same time, the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds arrived in front of Zhan Tianlei's cage. He looked at Zhan Tianlei calmly. "You all know him, right?"
When the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds asked, everybody nodded. "Zhan Tianlei is actually a demon cultivator," said the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds.
All the peak masters were stunned by these words. Only Xiao Chen, Cang Xuan and the rest were confused. It was obvious that they did not know what a demonic cultivator was.
Xiao Chen and the others were not from the Divine Region of the Central Plains, so they were unfamiliar with the words' demonic cultivator '. However, the other peak masters' expressions changed drastically, as if they had heard something terrifying.
Said the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds indifferently. He had anticipated that Xiao Chen and the others would be puzzled, so he said indifferently.
"Three thousand years ago, demon cultivators invaded the Tian Chen Continent on a large scale. They wanted to annex the Tian Chen Continent. In the end, the Tian Chen Continent resisted stubbornly and forced them to retreat. But because of that, the Tian Chen Continent suffered great losses …"
He told Xiao Chen and the others everything he knew about demon cultivators. After hearing the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, Xiao Chen and the others understood how terrifying demon cultivators were. They could be described as the Tian Chen Continent's nightmare. Three thousand years ago, the Tian Chen Continent's cultivators had almost all died. It was a cruel and brutal battle.
Xiao Chen understood how cruel and terrifying demon cultivators were. At the same time, when he looked at Zhan Tianlei, he understood why the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds had locked him in the lowest level of the Thunder Prison.
After telling everyone about the demon cultivators, the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds said solemnly, "Now, the demon cultivators are back again.
"And now, the demonic cultivators are making a comeback. They are preparing to launch a second invasion. The severity of this matter has far exceeded everyone's expectations. The power of the demonic cultivators has unknowingly spread throughout the entire Heavenly Chen Mainland. Even Nine Firmaments Palace has a demonic cultivator lurking within it. Additionally, one of them has even taken up the position of Peak Master.
When the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds said that, everybody's expression stiffened. They naturally understood what that meant. They also understood why the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds wanted to wipe out Prison Flame Mountain.
When they thought about the fact that the demon cultivators were coming back again, everybody was astonished. But what the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds said next surprised them even more.
"The demon cultivators are hiding in all the influential groups of the Tian Chen Continent on such a large scale. Their goal is obvious: they want to create an empty space passage. Just like three thousand years ago, they want to use the empty space passage to invade the Tian Chen Continent again."
Empty space passage … Those four words made everybody's expression fall. The Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds didn't need to explain further. Everybody understood what it meant if the empty space passage was successfully created.
The situation was much more serious than they had imagined.
After telling everybody the truth, the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds gave an order.
"Therefore, we have to wipe out all the demon cultivators in the Tian Chen Continent in one fell swoop. We have to stop them from creating the empty space passage. Now, the demon cultivators in Nine Clouds Palace have been dealt with. Next, we'll deal with the demon cultivators in the outside world. That's why we called you all here.
"From today onwards, all forces within Nine Firmaments Palace's sphere of influence will be investigated. Once you find any suspicious individuals, do not hesitate to kill them. Remember, this investigation and purge does not require any evidence. We would rather kill the wrong person than let any demonic cultivator escape."
The Ruler of the Nine Clouds Palace had said so much so that everybody could start the real purge. Now that the internal problems of Nine Clouds Palace had been dealt with, the only thing left was to wipe out all the demon cultivators in the Tian Chen Continent.
Furthermore, in order to eliminate the root of the problem, the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds had said that they'd rather kill the wrong people than let any demon cultivators go.
They didn't need any evidence. As long as they suspected that you were involved with Devil Cultivators, they could directly kill you. Under such a bloody purge, there would definitely be many people who would die unjustly, but this was definitely the most reliable method.
Given the urgency of the situation, it would be too pedantic to care about evidence. After all, this was a matter of life and death for the entire Tian Chen Continent.
If the Demonic Cultivators were not completely wiped out, then the Heavenly Chen Continent would face the threat of being attacked by the Demonic Cultivators at any time. It was impossible to predict when such a threat would erupt, and once it did, the consequences would be unimaginable.
