Chapter 1458: The Demon Sage's Test
The Demon Sage's Test
Xuanyuan descended from the sky, and the mysterious door disappeared in an instant.
He looked down from above the nine heavens, using the Eye of Truth to observe the situation.
This was a desolate land with tall mountains and giant trees thousands of feet tall. Their thick branches were like dragons, extending into the distance.
The ground was covered with swamps. Bubbles burst, releasing poisonous gas. A Fifth Revolution immortal only needed to inhale a bit of it to be fatal. Miasma filled the air.
Outside the swamp, there were many exotic flowers growing in this piece of land.
There was a huge man-eating flower. Its branches and leaves were like a long whip full of thorns, tightly binding a giant bear that was passing by. The sharp thorns pierced into the body of the giant bear, which was filled with poison that could paralyze the enemy. The man-eating flower tore the body of the Life Immortal Realm bear into pieces. Its bloody mouth tore off large pieces of flesh from the bear's body, causing blood to splatter all over the ground.
There were Bee Overlords that were the size of a human head. Their strength was at the Life Immortal Realm. The sharp needles on their tails were like vicious swords that could cut through anything. There were thousands of them, and they directly stung a ferocious tiger at the Sky Immortal Realm to death. In the next instant, that ferocious tiger was devoured cleanly without a corpse left.
There were great demons everywhere in this desolate land. Immortals could die at any time if they came here.
Xuanyuan looked into the distance with the Eye of Insight. There were waterfalls tens of thousands of feet tall, and there were huge lakes and rivers. There were many demons hidden in them, and they were all extremely terrifying.
In this world, the power of wind and water intertwined, and all kinds of terrains intertwined. One careless mistake could lead to death.
The moment Xuanyuan descended, two black figures appeared and bowed: "Greetings, Prince."
Xuanyuan nodded and said expressionlessly: "Mm, take me to the princess."
"Yes." The two assassins led the way. Their strength was at the Sage Plane. They guarded this area because this was the path of retreat for the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Especially in these few days, Qingyi had already angered the major forces of the Demon Region. They had to ensure that there was no need to worry about the path of retreat. No one could predict whether the three major forces of the Demon Race would suddenly join forces to attack. Naturally, they had to make proper preparations.
Flying over the forest, Xuanyuan used the Eye of Truth to see many traps set by the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Once triggered, the killing power was boundless. Many of the killing formations were also interconnected. They were used to kill strong enemies.
Xuanyuan saw all of this, but he remained silent. He looked ahead at the large lakes and rivers that extended to a huge city in the distance. This was a temporary city that was full of flaws. Many of the defensive measures were not perfect, but there were many strong people in the city. They were far away from the noise of battle, so they were not affected by the Shen Clan's army.
Xuanyuan used the Eye of Truth to see that there were many hidden killers of the Six Paths of Reincarnation around the city. Many killing formations were hidden in the city. Once activated, the killing power would be boundless. The Lord of the Six Paths and the Lord of the Samsara doted on Qing Yi to the extreme, and they did not want her life to be threatened.
"If there are so many killing formations in this city, why is the princess still being attacked?" Xuanyuan asked seriously.
"The princess told them to be on guard, and not to act rashly unless there is a war. She wants to use the enemy's assassination to improve her own strength, and she told us not to interfere. Please forgive her, Prince," one of the killers replied.
"It's fine. What have you done wrong? Since it is the princess's order, all you have to do is follow it." Xuanyuan did not say much. This was Qing Yi's personality. Sometimes, even he could not change her decisions, let alone these people.
The Lord of the Six Paths and the Lord of the Samsara knew Qing Yi's personality, so they followed her orders and sent people to protect her in secret.
In a short while, they landed in the huge city. The Six Paths of Reincarnation were in the dark, and the demon experts who had sided with Qing Yi were in the light. They stood guard in every corner of the city.
Under the guidance of the two assassins, Xuanyuan arrived at a palace in the city. It was a temporary palace. It was very ordinary. The palace walls were white, and the windows were red. It was a stark contrast to the palace.
There was nothing fancy about it, and everything looked very ordinary.
Qingyi didn't know what Xuanyuan's plan was, so she didn't build a big city here. Instead, it was used as a temporary base camp. She refused the invitations of the three major forces of the Monster Race.
Outside the palace, many killers retreated.
Xuanyuan walked in. Qing Yi was dressed in clothes whiter than snow, and she looked light and graceful. At this moment, her eyes were closed, and she held her sword in one hand and rested the other on her knee. She was sitting like that.
She slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw Xuanyuan, there was a trace of tenderness in her eyes. She said gently, "You are finally here."
"Thank you for your hard work." Xuanyuan sighed. He came to Qing Yi's side and sat down. "What's the situation now?"
Qing Yi paused for a moment, then said, "The Demon God's Sect, the Chaotic Immortal Demon Mansion, and the Sky Demon Dynasty all have Primordial Prince level characters that have appeared. My presence here has caused many of the older generation to be very dissatisfied with me. However, they do not dare to make any big moves. Once the assassins fail, they will instantly turn to dust, leaving not a single trace of evidence. This is also the part that worries me."
"It's fine. There is no hurry to find out. In the Demon Realm, which major faction is colluding with the God Race?" Xuanyuan frowned. This was a very important question.
"In the Demon Realm, there are many complicated relationships, and it is hard to say. But at least among the people I have gathered, there are many who have ulterior motives. Why don't you make a move first and clean them up? There is no lack of spies from the God Race! " Qing Yi was not good at scheming. Not everyone could be like Xuanyuan, who could pry into people's hearts and listen to the thoughts of others. Although she knew that there were many who had ulterior motives, she did not want to act blindly without thinking.
And now, Xuanyuan had stepped into the fifth layer of the Sage Realm, and obtained the Sage Mirror, a Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Naturally, he was more knowledgeable about this Dao.
The reason why Qing Yi did not make a move was to wait for Xuanyuan's arrival and let Xuanyuan make the decision. After all, it was Xuanyuan who asked her to come to the Demon Realm. He must have his own plans. She did not want to act on her own, and it would not be good if she ruined Xuanyuan's grand plan. So until now, she only did what she was supposed to do.
"It's fine. We can leave these people first. They will still be useful at the critical moment. For now, let's not alert the enemy. Since they can quietly stay here as spies, they will not be too big of a threat for the time being. Sometimes, we can use their mouths to spread false information. Their value is greater." Xuanyuan appeared very indifferent. Now, the God Race was the main enemy. If these people were alive, giving them false information would be beneficial to the God Race. The Six Paths of Reincarnation was not a place as orderly as the Blue Dragon Holy Land. There were good and bad people mixed together. Because of this, there were many things that could be used. There was no need to be anxious to integrate them.
"Then what should we do next?" Qing Yi was a little confused. She could not find a direction.
If you want more people to follow you, you must let them feel that you are a true descendant of Goddess Nuwa. If they follow you, they will be protected by Goddess Nuwa, just like they did at the end of the Ancient Chaos Period. "Xuanyuan said word by word." That's right. You are the inheritor of Goddess Nuwa, and your prestige was left by Goddess Nuwa. If you want more people to follow you, you must let them know that you are a true descendant of Goddess Nuwa.
"Got it. You still have a way." Qing Yi immediately understood. Xuanyuan wanted to increase his prestige in the Demon Realm. She leaned on Xuanyuan and smiled like a flower. She said, "How do you think we should name this city?"
"'Heaven Mending City'." Xuanyuan smiled faintly.
"Good, 'Heaven Mending City'. Why didn't I think of that?" Qing Yi's eyes brightened. Goddess Nüwa mending the sky was something that everyone in the Demon Clan knew. Goddess Nüwa was revered by countless people. She had great prestige among all the races and was known as the Mother of Earth. Qing Yi was the inheritor of Goddess Nüwa's pure bloodline. It was reasonable for her to name the city with such a grand and majestic name.
"Not simple, not simple at all. Those who can become the Prince of the Six Paths of Reincarnation are indeed not ordinary people. I have nothing to say." At that moment, an old voice was heard from within the palace. An old man holding a rattan staff walked out of the void step by step. Every step he took, there would be supreme ripples of the Great Path under his feet. It was extremely intimidating. His face was extremely old, and he looked like he was about to die. However, there was boundless power hidden within his body.
He was a cultivator of the Third Heaven of the Sage Plane. He was obviously an old man who had lived for countless years.
"Indeed, it has really widened our horizons. It is really rare to see someone of the younger generation with such wisdom." An extremely tall man with the back of a tiger and the waist of a bear appeared. His armor clanked, and he looked extraordinary. Strong winds blew as he walked. His strength was also of the Third Heaven of the Sage Plane.
Then, many Sage Plane cultivators appeared. There were a total of 36 of them. Xuanyuan faced them calmly and bowed to them one by one to show his respect.
These people were all extremely loyal and worshipful to the descendants of Goddess Nüwa. As such, they had resolutely pledged their allegiance to Qing Yi.
This time, knowing that the Prince of the Six Paths of Reincarnation was coming, they had gotten permission from Qing Yi to hide in this world and observe their actions. The results were very satisfactory.
Because Qing Yi was a descendant of Goddess Nüwa.
The descendants of Goddess Nüwa had originally strongly requested that Qing Yi not be together with Sakyamuni.
Disregarding all other aspects, Xuanyuan was far better than Sakyamuni. After all, Qing Yi and Xuanyuan had once had feelings for each other. Now that the Blue Dragon Sacred Ground was rising rapidly and had the concept of the coexistence of all races, they felt that they could join the Blue Dragon Sacred Ground.
The Six Paths of Reincarnation had an illustrious reputation. Its baleful aura was too heavy, giving people a bad feeling in the end. It was the opposite of Goddess Nuwa who loved the world, used her body to mend the heavens, and saved the myriad races. This was the reason why they were more opposed to Qing Yi being together with Sakra.
Qing Yi was very insistent on being together with Sakyamuni. Now, Sakyamuni's performance made them very satisfied.
Naturally, they had no reason to object. They believed that with these two future Masters of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, they would definitely be able to create a brand new world.
"Everyone, just as my husband said, we will give grace and benefit to the common people. Each of you will lead the elites of our 'Heaven Mending City' and scatter to the four corners of the Demon Realm to save some of the common people who have suffered in the war." Qingyi's smile was like a flower, and her face was full of happiness.
"Yes." The 36 Sages of the Demon Race accepted the order and left.
