On the southern battlefield, the thousand-year stalemate between the Infernal Prison Devils and the Abyss Devil Army suddenly changed. First, the Abyss Devil Army began to withdraw slowly, reducing their forces to half of their original size. They also gave up several strongholds they originally occupied and retreated to the original southern battlefield headquarters, the Abyss City.
As for the Infernal Prison Devils, they also made a move. They divided the area they had forcibly occupied into one-third of a thousand kilometers as a buffer zone.
Then, they built a city on the current expeditionary army's base and the central army's position. They formed an island-shaped defensive chain.
However, in general, the two races showed a defensive stance and no longer fought each other. They also allowed low-level cultivators to privately travel between the fortresses of the two sides to carry out trade activities.
As for the news of the two races jointly exploring the burial ground, it spread like wildfire after the battle. There were rumors that both sides had obtained a lot of benefits in the ruins.
As for the protective barrier there, it suddenly disappeared after the battle. Then, the Body Integration cultivators of both sides personally went to investigate. In the end, they only found a withered Heaven Rank demonic plant, the Jade Leaf Silver Flower. However, the core of the Jade Leaf Silver Flower had completely withered and could not be used again.
As for the four races, they all gained a lot, but many of them also died in the burial ground. On the Infernal Prison Devils' side, the Fourth Prince's side lost one person. Even the Fourth Prince was seriously injured after coming out and had to go into seclusion for a hundred years. The Heavenly Devil Army's four people who went in came out unscathed.
The Abyss Devil Army's side also lost one person, but the Dark Devil Army's side only had one person who escaped. After the battle, it was said that the Dark Devil Army specially sent cultivators to the burial ground to investigate, but they did not find the corpse of the person who died.
After the battle, the expeditionary army's commander-in-chief, Yan Fei, was appointed by the commander-in-chief Yan Lei as his deputy. She was responsible for coordinating the southern battlefield. As for the commander-in-chief himself, he set off to return to the Prairie Fire City. He would not return to the southern battlefield unless it was wartime.
It seemed that Yan Lei wanted to leave everything to his deputy. However, in the eyes of some people, the Fourth Prince was injured and was recuperating in seclusion. The power of the southern battlefield completely fell into the hands of the Third Palace Master, Yan Fei. However, unexpectedly, Yan Fei actually pulled the Seventh Prince Yan Peng to her side and let him take charge.
In this way, the three powers were divided, but Concubine Yan still had the power to make the final decision.
At this time, Yi Tian was sitting cross-legged in his cave and reading the latest military report. There was no change in the back. These things were more or less within his expectations. As for Yan Lei's actions, they were more or less the same as what he had guessed.
He seemed to have thought of something to write, which was why he sent someone to deliver an invitation card to him before he left, inviting him to visit Prairie Fire City when he was free.
Yi Tian's gaze swept across the gilded invitation in front of him. He curled his lips and revealed a helpless expression. Obviously, this was the most troublesome thing for him. If he didn't go, he would definitely encounter something that would make him feel uncomfortable.
The last time he was used as a tool outside the Boneyard, he was a little unhappy. But because of the other party's identity and Concubine Yan's position, he didn't say much and agreed to the life-and-death duel. This time, it seemed that Yan Lei felt that he was still useful and wanted to rope him in. However, he didn't know what kind of trap he would set for him behind his back.
After he took the Thunderstruck Date Wood and the silk kasaya from the Jade Leaf Silver Flower, the entire space inside the Jade Leaf Silver Flower immediately collapsed. Fortunately, when Grandmaster Hui Ming set up this space, he still had a trick up his sleeve. At the last moment, he was directly teleported tens of thousands of kilometers away.
After that, Yi Tian didn't dare to wander around the outside world. After changing the attribute of the spirit force in his body, he found the location of the expeditionary army's camp and rushed back.
After he arrived, he first contacted Mother Yang, who was stationed there, and then he entered his temporary cave to begin his closed-door cultivation. He also announced to the outside world that if there was a major military operation, he must not be disturbed.
After Concubine Yan returned to the camp and was notified by Mother Yang, she only sent out a communication jade to ask about the situation. Then she sent back the communication jade slip and invitation card.
Now Yi Tian ushered in a rare period of peace and could sit cross-legged in his cave to rest. This trip to the Boneyard Temple had been dangerous. The matter of dealing with the Dark Demon Patriarch's avatar was bound to cause a lot of waves, so it was better for him to go into closed-door cultivation for a while and wait for the limelight to pass before going out.
At this time, the silk kasaya had been put away by him. This thing was a hot potato, and it couldn't appear in the Demon Realm again. Otherwise, who knew what consequences it would cause.
It was a pity that the Thunderstruck Date Wood had been completely absorbed by the seal in his Niwan Palace. Originally, he planned to refine it and integrate it into his Purple Flame Wind Thunder Fan to strengthen the power of wind and thunder.
Fortunately, the power of heavenly thunder contained in the spirit force flowing through the seal was greatly strengthened. With this, the effect of tempering his Yuanying Spirit Body and nourishing the several spirit artifacts in his hand was more than doubled.
After a while, Yi Tian sat cross-legged in the depths of the temporary cave and quickly entered a meditative state. After operating the cultivation method in his body, he naturally revealed the appearance of the Inferno Prison True Body. It was just that the demonic fire on his body had quietly undergone a qualitative change. The black-red flame's core faintly flashed with purple light. Moreover, there were traces of lightning attached to it, very much like the lightning on the Thunderstruck Date Wood.
After this fight, the Demon Soul Flag in his hand had greatly strengthened. After devouring Tu 'e's arm, the soul of the murderer in the Demon Soul Flag seemed to have quietly changed. Yi Tian felt that the Suanni beast soul was much more solid than before, but its size had shrunk to about half of its original size.
Puzzled, he could only try to let it devour other treasures. However, after some experiments, he found that the Suanni beast soul only liked to devour living things and disdained dead things.
Although Yi Tian didn't have a good impression of the Soul Flag spirit artifact, he didn't have anything good on hand, so he could only make do with it for now.
Thus, Yi Tian began his closed-door cultivation in the cave. In the blink of an eye, 20 to 30 years had passed. During this time, Concubine Yan didn't disturb him, so it was a relatively peaceful time.
At the same time, there were several conflicts between the Heaven Devil Clan and several major devil clans in the Devil Realm. There was always a name interspersed in these incidents.
The name of the Heaven Devil Clan's Consecrated Elder Jiu Tuoluo gradually became famous among the Spirit Severing Stage cultivators. If Yi Tian knew about this, he definitely wouldn't understand what he was doing. At the beginning, everyone had agreed to try not to attract too much attention after sneaking into the Devil Realm. Otherwise, it would have a negative impact on the following operations.
