At the end of the day, all the forces were plotting against the Nine Underworlds.
Sometimes, he tolerated Nine Nether for the sake of the future, and he would even take the initiative to make things easier for Nine Nether.
Knowing that, Nine Nether also had her own plans, and everyone was making their own preparations.
It was for the same reason that Feng Yunsheng had given up a portion of the Doomsday Heavenly Demon's authority to the Nine Underworlds.
Otherwise, if all the forces joined forces to seal the Nine Underworlds, even if they didn't besiege it, they could still turn the Nine Underworlds into a pool of stagnant water.
Previously, when they were fighting for the Buddha's Sarira, Nine Nether had suddenly helped the Demon Race. She must have obtained some benefits from the Demon Race.
To be precise, this was also the Demon Race giving the Nine Nether some convenience. Of course, their ultimate goal was still for their own convenience. At the moment, everyone was taking what they needed from the transaction. The Demon Race could gain some benefits immediately, but on a deeper level, they were still planning for a longer period of time.
What Yan Zhaoge and the others were doing now was somewhat similar to this.
To a certain extent, the moment the Nine Underworlds agreed to the trade, it was no longer a matter between Yu Ye and Nie Jingshen. Instead, it was a matter between the entire Daoism and the Nine Underworlds. In fact, other forces might even be involved, which would affect the overall situation in the future.
After the discussion, everyone began to contact their own people.
The first person he contacted was the Incongruence Divine Mother who was currently in charge of the Immortal Extermination Formation. The Incongruence Divine Mother had no objections.
She and the Immortal Extermination Formation fused with the void, as if they were hovering above the 'heavens'. Previously, she had been paying more attention to the battle between the Immortal Court and the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus. Now, she shifted her attention towards the Nine Underworlds.
The formless changes were hard for others to sense, but as a Dao Realm Almighty, the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon would definitely sense it.
Yang Jian also received the same notification. Although he did not return, he sent a message back saying that he would pay attention to the matter.
Perhaps he wouldn't personally participate in the transaction and confrontation between the Dao Sect and the Nine Underworlds, but Yang Jian would naturally pay attention to the movements of the Demon Race, the Western Pure Land, and the other forces to prevent others from benefiting from it.
The news was also sent to the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du in the Tushita Palace. The other party would also pay attention to it.
On the other side, Suo Mingzhang sealed the Great Peace Imperial Cliff Heaven and went out.
Having come out this time, he had also brought the cleansed Green Lotus Flag with him, returning it to Yan Zhaoge.
While facing the Nine Underworlds, the Green Lotus Flag would most likely not be of much use, Yan Zhaoge still happily accepted such a precious treasure.
After everyone finished packing up, Yan Zhaoge let out a sigh of relief as he looked at Yu Ye and Yue Zhenbei's calm expressions, "Let's go."
The group left the Dao Heavens and traversed through the endless void.
For Fang Zai and the others, they didn't need to look for him.
It might be difficult for martial practitioners with lower cultivation bases to find it. However, Yan Zhaoge and the others soon arrived at the Land of Tranquil Stream.
With the cultivation bases of Yan Zhaoge, Feng Yunsheng and Suo Mingzhang, it was not impossible for them to break through the Nine Underworlds devilish qi that was corroding space. However, there was no need for them to do so now.
Standing on the pitch-black territory, Yu Ye didn't appear to be daydreaming like she usually did. Instead, her expression was focused, and her eyes were brimming with vigor.
On the contrary, as Yan Zhaoge surveyed the surrounding tranquil stream, his gaze was unfocused as if his mind was wandering.
Feng Yunsheng concealed her aura. In the Land of Tranquil Stream, she seemed to be like a fish in water, as if she had completely blended into the darkness, making it difficult for others to detect her.
On the other hand, as Suo Mingzhang stood there, he seemed to be the center of the cosmos. Even if he was in the Land of Tranquil Stream filled with devilish qi, it was still a shocking sight.
"You're taking a risk by coming here. Do you know that?" Suo Mingzhang stood there calmly and suddenly asked Yu Ye.
"I know." Yu Ye answered, "Zhaoge and the others warned me."
She was the one and only cultivator of the Chaos Extinguishing Origin Scripture.
As long as she was still alive, even if others obtained the Chaos Extinguishing Origin Scripture, they wouldn't be able to cultivate it.
If not, she wouldn't have been hunted by Zhang Buxu in the past.
The Chaos Extinguishing Origin Scripture's existence was also an eyesore to the Nine Underworlds and the Doomsday Heavenly Devil.
Even if Yu Ye perished, Yan Zhaoge, the Incongruence Divine Mother, Gao Qingxuan, and the others still possessed the Chaos Extinguishing Origin Scripture.
However, due to Zhang Buxu perishing in the Nine Underworlds, the Nine Underworlds' Devilish Dao also possessed this scripture.
If they were to be careless, the Nine Underworlds' Devilish Dao might take the initiative and suppress the cultivator's cultivation to a lower level, which would make it easier to deal with them later.
They had to guard against this.
As such, Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng had warned Yu Ye from the very beginning.
Other than Feng Yunsheng, Yu Ye was also bearing some risks in coming here.
However, Yu Ye didn't stop because of this. Instead, she insisted on coming here.
Far away, amidst the greasy and filthy dark tranquil stream, human silhouettes suddenly appeared.
There weren't many of them, only two.
One was a tall youth with a cold expression, while the other was a benevolent old man with a leisurely expression.
Their appearance caused Yan Zhaoge's gaze to focus once again.
He was very familiar with both of them.
Nie Jingshen and the Primordial Heart Devil.
The two's aura was calm, without any devilish intent. One was like a sheathed sword, while the other was like an ordinary old man that could be found anywhere in the mundane world.
"Thank you for coming here." The Primordial Heart Devil smiled warmly and cupped his hands towards Yan Zhaoge and the others.
Yu Ye ignored the Primordial Heart Devil and stared straight at Nie Jingshen.
Nie Jingshen calmly looked over and stared at her.
Yu Ye's lips moved, but no sound came out. Her gaze towards the man in front of her was filled with ripples.
On the contrary, the calm-looking Nie Jingshen greeted first, "Long time no see. It seems like your injuries are completely healed. Congratulations."
Hearing his indifferent tone, Yu Ye's breathing became stifled, and she became even more speechless.
Nie Jingshen calmly looked towards Yue Zhenbei and nodded, "Long time no see. How are you?"
After a brief silence, Yue Zhenbei slowly said, "I'm fine, but not you."
"I'm fine as well." Nie Jingshen's expression remained calm. After saying that, he shut his mouth.
He had always been cold and quiet, but he was mostly directed towards his enemies and outsiders.
In Yu Ye's and Yue Zhenbei's eyes, they only felt that he was familiar, yet also unfamiliar. Chills filled their hearts.
"May I know about our previous agreement?" asked the Primordial Heart Devil with a smile.
Yan Zhaoge was also looking at Nie Jingshen. He retracted his gaze and turned towards the Primordial Heart Devil. He said plainly, "How about you express your sincerity first?"
"Of course." The Primordial Heart Devil nodded and pointed his finger forward. Streams of black water flowed across the skies of the Land of Tranquil Stream, instantly transforming into a vast ocean.
The ocean water wasn't as filthy as the tranquil stream. Although it was pitch-black like ink, it looked clean and radiant, without any impurities.
