Yun Yang stayed on the Soul-Devouring Tree for a full day and night to ensure that nothing would go wrong.
It was only when Emmie had absorbed the vitality of thousands of trees from tree to tree and confirmed repeatedly that there was no longer any devouring function that it stopped.
The sprout at the tip seemed to have lost some of its luster, but it was still green and straight. There was nothing unusual about it. Only then did he feel relieved.
When he came down, the few elders who were waiting below had been waiting anxiously. When they saw Yun Yang return, they rushed up to him with anxious expressions, anxiety written all over their faces.
Yun Yang was the first person who had allowed them to feel the closest to the truth since the establishment of this realm. They were desperate to know the truth, but there was also some fear of the unknown in addition to their eagerness!
Were our guesses right? Did they really absorb anything from us?
"How is it? Did you find anything? "
Yun Yang sucked in a breath and said, "We're right. The problem lies with these trees!"
The group's expression darkened. "I'd like to hear the details."
"These trees aren't as simple as they look. There's a hidden, unique function. All those who cultivate under the trees or engage in sexual activity will have a bit of the refined life force, deific consciousness comprehension, and the Celestial Luck Banner's Qi of Celestial Luck extracted … It's especially obvious when it comes to absorbing the life force and Qi of Creation that overflows during sexual activity."
Each time he spoke of the consequences, the group's expression grew darker. In the end, they were all dejected.
An elder looked dejected, but he muttered softly, "Is that true? But we've been in this realm for many years. Other than the lack of advancement in our cultivation base, there aren't any other negative effects. What you said we've lost is the essence of life force cultivation. How can we be fine?"
Yun Yang shook his head. "Actually, your abnormalities have been apparent for a long time. It's just a leaf that blinds the eye. Please recall if all of you were the cream of the crop from your sect back then, the cream of the crop. How is your cultivation base advancement in this realm? Even if this isn't the Bound of Universe and isn't a good place to cultivate, should your cultivation base stop there? Why is this so? Then there's your descendants. How are their talents? How many of them are gifted? Why is this so? And your Celestial Luck Banners, the Celestial Luck Banner that's said to be indestructible, are actually damaged? Aren't these all proof? "
Listening to Yun Yang, the group's expression grew darker.
Yes, these were all visible. These abnormalities should not have occurred!
According to what I know, there's a Celestial Demonic Door in the Holy Land of Heaven's Punishment in the Bound of Universe. This Celestial Demonic Door was left behind when the Bound of Universe was divided back then. It opens once every hundred years, and the Demon Race attacks from there. Their strategic purpose is basically similar to the Bloodsoul Peak. As long as they successfully break through the door, they will be able to set foot on the Bound of Universe, and the Demon Race will descend upon the Bound of Universe. However, the countless mystical beasts in the Holy Land of Heaven's Punishment have guarded this door for tens of thousands of years, and the Demon Race has never been able to take a step past it … However, the Demon Race used the Celestial Luck Banner's power of providence to shift the opening time forward by a whole thirty years … We almost fell into the enemy's hands … "
"Even if the Tian Fa Holy Land gave everything they had and managed to defend against this wave of attacks, it would still be a huge blow to their vitality. I'm not sure if they would be able to recover before the next Hundred Years Holy War. What's more worrying is whether the Hundred Years Holy War is still accurate. Perhaps it won't be a hundred years, but seventy years, or even shorter. And once the Sky Demon Passageway falls, it would be in the Xuanhuang World.
"And where does the power of the Heavenly Fortune of the Demon Race come from …"
Yun Yang sighed and did not speak further.
The dozen or so people who were waiting for Yun Yang were dumbfounded.
Things were already laid out clearly in front of them, and there was no room for doubt. The lack of a corner on the Celestial Luck Banner was a fact that they had witnessed with their own eyes, and the slow progress of their cultivation base was even more obvious. There was also the problem of the talents of their descendants, which was a problem that had long been puzzling them … All of this, however, directly and indirectly proved that the purpose of the Demon Clan supporting them was to extract the origin of life from them and the power of the Celestial Luck Banner to open the Passage of the Universe!
"I can't believe that we've been used by the Demon Race without knowing it! We've all thought that we're unyielding and have a clear conscience, but we didn't expect that it's the scum like us who live an ignoble existence and are afraid of death who are always carrying out great things that endanger the well-being of mankind! "
An elder sighed with his head held high. "This old man was among the first batch of captives and brought here … Until today, how much energy have I provided for the Demon Race to counterattack the Bound of Universe?"
As he spoke, he suddenly burst into tears, sobbing uncontrollably. The others also looked mournful and inexplicable.
"Elder Mao, what's the point of regretting now? What should we do in the future?" A middle-aged man with a somber expression finally asked the most difficult question for everyone to face.
Elder Mao took a deep breath, a resolute look in his eyes. "What else can we do? We've already endangered the safety of the entire Bound of Universe! The two methods must be carried out simultaneously. First, we must destroy all these trees. Then … then we'll destroy ourselves! "
As soon as Elder Mao said this, the entire place fell into a dead silence.
Some people could not help but turn their heads to look at the flickering lights in the night sky.
There were their own families, children, and wives there.
Although their families were all prisoners, they still had to enjoy the happiness of a family. How could they let go of the worries of such a large family so easily?
Kill them all?
Easier said than done!
"It's not just these two methods. Although there's a difference in priority, at the end of the day, we're all going to die! Once the trees are destroyed, the Demon Race will naturally know that we've already found out their secret, and they won't let us live anymore. "
"The more than eighty-three thousand lives here are all destined to die in the future."
Another person murmured in a low voice.
Elder Mao suddenly turned his head and said angrily, "What else can we do? Continue to play dumb? Should he continue to struggle at death's door? Continue to act as a charging machine for the Demon Race and provide energy for them? Wait until the Demon Race has gathered enough energy to destroy the Bound of Universe?! "
"We can die. But let the children who don't cultivate live! "One person said with tears in his eyes," The children are innocent. "
