Xie Tian, who had been waiting in a straight line between Bi Ya and the seed demons, did not expect Emperor Mi to appear alone.
He was waiting for Bi Ya to stop advancing step by step, and for the entire army to attack after being lured by the Demons.
However, seeing an old friend made him sigh.
"A few hundred years, things have changed …"
After more than a hundred years, the Bi Ya battlefield that seemed to have the ability to heal itself was still that familiar death ground.
Emperor Mi, however, made him look at him in a new light.
Ignoring everything else, just the aura that Emperor Mi gave off made him feel close to him.
This was a feeling that only people on the same path would have.
Therefore, he didn't expect that in just a few hundred years, Emperor Millet had undergone such a huge change. From a revered emperor, he became a lone ranger who was similar to him.
The word "lone ranger" represented many qualities.
For example, loneliness.
For example, doing things his own way.
For example, being resolute and decisive.
The most important thing was, of course, confidence.
How confident was Emperor Mi?
He was so confident that he dared to walk alone in the extraterritorial battlefield when the seed demons appeared.
He was so confident that he did not look back, nor did he turn back to try to find any traces of Xie Tian's existence.
It was because he felt Emperor Mi's confidence that Xie Tian hurriedly appeared after Emperor Mi left.
It was as if he knew that Emperor Mi was telling him by not looking back — it doesn't matter if you are here or not.
How confident?
At the very least, it could make Xie Tian show genuine respect.
This was because he could sense that this wasn't the self-confidence and arrogance that lofty figures were used to. Instead, it was a temperament that had been accumulated and then blossomed. It was a temperament that was filled with a thick sense of simplicity.
Just this temperament meant that Xie Tian's enemy had grown a lot.
"But I should still be able to deceive him …"
Thinking of his motive for coming to Bi Ya battlefield, Xie Tian felt that it was possible.
He would not foolishly run to the bottom of Bi Ya and loudly tell Emperor Mi that the seed demons were terrible.
He knew very well what the cultivators of the second division were like.
There was no need for him to do anything. In the face of such a major event, Black Cliff's tentacles would definitely cover more than half of the outer realm battlefield.
Therefore, as long as Luo Zheng did what he needed to do, Bi Ya would be able to sense something unusual from the Demons' movements.
Leaving aside the possibility that Dark Cliff might have even more sinister thoughts and tricks up his sleeves, it was inevitable that he would do the same thing as the Demons.
Thus, he, who had no intention of reporting to Black Cliff, could only wait.
This time, the wait didn't last long.
In Elder Zhong's words, Emperor Su's departure had become an unexpected pawn of the Black Cliff Palace.
It seemed that with this chess piece, the Great Lords of the Main Palace Hall were more daring.
After half a day of discussion, at least thirty elite brigades were sent out from the various camps in Black Cliff.
When these nearly five thousand elites left the camp, they were extremely proud.
This was because the commander of the branch hall they were in believed that they were the absolute elites of the battle against the seed demons. This time, they had entered the battlefield to better participate in the battle and to sense the aura left by the seed demons in the Black Cliff battlefield.
Under the envious, jealous, and resentful gazes of their comrades, the five thousand elites of the various races from the second tribe swam down the Abyss Cliff like small snakes with great confidence …
Then, Xie Tian saw them and what he had been waiting for all this time.
These thousands of people could be said to be the top prodigies of the second division.
The various races of the Sinkhole Imperial Court, which Xie Tian rarely interacted with, were also among them.
After a brief glance, his gaze landed on a familiar person.
"She actually came …"
Xie Tian was somewhat surprised by Dongfang Wu's appearance in the outer realm battlefield even though he had just heard Emperor Su mention it.
As for what Emperor Su had said about abandoning his wife, he naturally did not care. However, he still felt a little guilty towards Dongfang Wu.
Especially when he saw that Dongfang Wu's lively eyes had already been replaced by a cold and deathly stillness.
However, this deathly stillness seemed to give Dongfang Wu a rather charming coldness and haughtiness. It attracted the gazes of the soldiers on both sides with obvious admiration.
As for Dongfang Wu's guilt, Xie Tian could not do anything to dispel it.
However, seeing this situation, he was still very happy to pray for her.
"Life still has to go on …"
After murmuring to himself, Xie Tian no longer paid attention to Dongfang Wu. Just as the other party sensed his presence and looked towards where he was hiding, he shifted his gaze and casually followed behind a team.
"Captain, what's wrong?"
The female cultivators of the Fengwu Battle Squad were very concerned about Dongfang Wu's abnormality.
It could be said that the reason they could inherit the title of the Fengwu Battle Squad, which had disappeared for a long time, was mostly due to Dongfang Wu.
From a certain point of view, Dongfang Wu was like Emperor Su to the other male cultivators of the Black Cliff Squad.
After all, these two prodigies from the Two Tribes of the God Realm had only been at the Black Cliff for a very short time.
"Nothing …" Dongfang Wu shook her head and said doubtfully, "I just felt like I was being spied on just now …"
The group of female cultivators instantly laughed when they heard this.
"Captain, are you not normal?"
"Hehe, reporting to Captain, I scanned the area just now and caught at least two hundred men who were spying on you!"
"Don't be ridiculous. Captain is reminding us to be vigilant. After all, this is different from the past. That Seed Demon is not an ordinary demon …"
"That's right, I heard that even the Demons want to deal with the Seed Demon!"
"What exactly is the Seed Demon? Why is it so terrifying?"
"This is a secret that only the higher-ups know. We don't have the right to know!"
"But if we don't know anything, how can we slay the demon?"
…
Thousands of people gradually moved away from the Black Cliff Squad amidst such discussions.
When Xie Tian could sense that the dozen or so Daozu were no longer escorting them and turned back, the thousands of people had also arrived at the center of the Black Cliff Battlefield.
This was the place where the Seed Demon was born.
Following the orders of the main palace, the thousands of people did not disperse. Instead, they set up camp according to a formation that Xie Tian had never seen before. Then, they sat cross-legged and entered the Wandering Soul and Heavenly Realms to comprehend the remaining aura of the Seed Demon.
Xie Tian did not comprehend it along with them.
Having met Hun Dun once, he was more familiar with its aura than anyone else here.
Therefore, after studying the formation for more than ten days, he began to wait again.
"It should be here soon …"
Xie Tian raised his head and looked forward to it.
When the Demon Flame that he had sensed for some reason woke the thousands of Black Cliff Elites up from their trance, the second thing that he had been waiting for had arrived.
At the same time.
In the Demon Slayer Main Palace.
"Elder Zhong, what is the purpose of these thousands of people going out?"
After seeing the thousands of elite soldiers encounter the Demons, a lord finally could not help but ask.
Elder Zhong did not even look at the place where the battle was about to break out …
"Why do you think the Seed Demon is heading toward that remote place …"
The lords looked at each other and could not help but smile bitterly.
"Battles and chaos are what attract the Seed Demon the most."
Elder Zhong did not seem interested in listening to the others' answers and spoke in an enigmatic manner.
"Therefore, this battle that Black Cliff and the Demons have arranged is to see if they can lure the Seed Demon over."
