It had been several hundred years since the devilish calamity. It was an unforgettable battle for the cultivators of the Spirit Realm, but it was also a calamity for the devilish cultivators. The invasion of the Spirit Realm was supposed to be the end of this calamity, but who would have thought that it would become the prelude to this calamity after the devilish army retreated back to the Devil Realm.
The devilish army that had been mobilized were all elites. Even though they had suffered some losses, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. After returning to the Devil Realm, they would still be able to rally the army.
However, the losses during this devilish calamity were even more severe than the previous one. What was interesting was that the number of low-grade cultivators that were killed was not as high as expected. Instead, many high-grade cultivators at the Severed Soul Stage and above had perished in the Spirit Realm. Just the Body Integration Stage cultivators alone had lost five of them. This was something that the major races of the Devil Realm were unable to bear.
The reason for this was that the Lifire Palace Sect Master had outshone everyone else during the devilish calamity. He had even beaten the one-eyed devilish cultivator to the point that he didn't dare to face him directly.
Although this matter wasn't widely known, there were no secrets in this world. Soon, rumors began to spread from the foreign races in the Spirit Realm. Furthermore, the Spirit Realm was also treating this devilish calamity with an open attitude. As such, a lot of unknown information began to slowly spread.
Many races in the Devil Realm had more or less interacted with Yi Tian. In particular, the high-grade cultivators of the Infernal Prison Devil Race and the Heavenly Devil Race had been deliberately released by Yi Tian.
Soon, the rumors that had spread to the Devil Realm spread to the two races. What was surprising was that the high-grade cultivators of the two races all chose Zhe Mo. He neither confirmed nor denied this matter, which greatly increased the credibility of the message.
On this day, a merchant ship of the Devil Realm Vagrant Cultivator Alliance slowly sailed past the realm gate and headed toward the distribution center. The ship was returning from a trade in the Spirit Realm. Other than the Asura Realm, the Spirit Realm, and the Buddha Spirit Realm, the Devil Realm maintained contact with the other five realms.
The Spirit Realm had clearly become a transit point for the various realms. In the Myriad Demon City of the Spirit Realm, low-grade devilish cultivators could trade with low-grade cultivators of the Spirit Realm. This was something that had never happened before.
Now, this merchant ship of the Devil World Rogue Cultivator Alliance was returning from the Demon World with a full load. After passing through the Realm Gate, no one came to check. In one of the inconspicuous cabins sat an ordinary Devil Race cultivator with a Deity Transformation Stage cultivation base. If it was the Heaven Fiend Race's Dugu Yaoxiang or the Infernal Prison Fiend Race's Imperial Uncle Yan Lei, they would definitely be able to recognize that this person was none other than the Spirit Realm's Li Fire Sect's Sect Master, Yi Tian.
However, Yi Tian had already stepped down as the Li Fire Sect's Sect Master and had become the person in charge of the Luo Tian Immortal Palace. Unfortunately, it would take some time for the news from the Spirit Realm to spread to the Demon Realm and then to the Devil Realm. What's more, the higher-ups of the three sects had deliberately concealed the consequences of this news. In addition, the grand ceremony for Han Liu's succession to the position of sect master had only been circulated among the high-level cultivators.
From this, it could be seen that the Devil Realm's reaction to the Spirit Realm wasn't as quick as it was before the calamity. Speaking of which, it was no wonder that after the calamity, the three sects of the Spirit Realm had sent out their elite cultivators to thoroughly investigate the spies left behind by the Devil Race in the Spirit Realm. The spies of the Devil Race hidden in the various sects were all unearthed. As a result, the Devil Race's pawns in the Spirit Realm were completely cut off.
After succeeding as the Luo Tian Immortal Palace's Sect Master, Yi Tian had rested in the Taiqing Pavilion for nearly a hundred years. During this period of time, he lived in seclusion. Most of the time, he lived in Qing Lianyun's residence. Speaking of which, he had traveled the Upper Spiritual Nine Realms for many years, causing Qing Lianyun to wait for him for many years.
In order to make it up to her, Yi Tian had spent a lot of effort to make Qing Lianyun happy. After that, he told her in detail about his travels in the Upper Spiritual Nine Realms. As for the Netherworld Realm, the news of the Netherworld Emperor's ferocious death had also spread to the Spirit Realm. These situations were basically in line with what Yi Tian had said. Only then did Qing Lianyun understand that there had been no news of Yi Tian in the Netherworld Realm. It turned out that he had turned the two realms upside down.
After the two of them had spent several decades in the forbidden mansion in the Taiqing Pavilion, Yi Tian felt that his state of mind had reached a higher level. Only then did he make up his mind to go to the Devil Realm to find the illusory location of the Eye of the Devil Realm.
At this point, even if Qing Lianyun didn't want to, she didn't dare to stop him. After learning the true identity of the Devil Saint Bao Ti from Yi Tian, Qing Lianyun was still somewhat worried. However, she still maintained a calm and composed expression.
Before they parted, she took some effort to sacrifice a drop of her heart's blood and fused it into Yi Tian's heart as a souvenir. Yi Tian could use this drop of heart's blood to cross realms and maintain contact with Qing Lianyun at any time.
At the same time, Yi Tian also left his Flying Thunder Seal on Qing Lianyun's body. Now that he had reached the Grand Ascension Stage, he could break through the void and return to the Spirit Realm at any time. In addition to the Flying Thunder Seal on her body, he could immediately lock onto her position after returning to the Spirit Realm.
During the several decades in the Spirit Realm's Taiqing Pavilion, Yi Tian had taken out all the spirit tools and treasures he had obtained and refined them again. This time, he wanted to go to the Devil Realm, so he had to be fully prepared. The Taiyuan Wood Sword in his hand had been refined by him and the pure Primal Chaos Origin Qi had been infused into it. Now, the originally green sword body had a bright grey luster under the Primal Chaos Origin Qi.
At the same time, in order to fool others, Yi Tian had also refined several other powerful demonic tools. However, these demonic tools were infused with Primal Chaos Origin Qi. On the surface, they looked no different from pure demonic tools, but they couldn't fool those top grade cultivators. At least with Demon Saint Bao Chi's eyesight, he could easily distinguish them.
However, this time, when Yi Tian went into seclusion to refine, he also revealed his spirit and demon dual cultivator body. The Xuanhuang Qi used by the two bodies were completely different, so their appearances were somewhat similar. At least after Qing Lianyun saw it, her eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. After hearing his explanation, she wasn't too surprised.
Now that Yi Tian was riding on the merchant ship of the Devil Realm Rogue Cultivator Alliance, he naturally wanted to hide it from Great Heavenly Devil Dugu Jimo's true body. As far as he knew, because Demon Saint Bao Chi had lived in the Devil Realm Eye for a long time, the management of the Devil Realm was usually handled by Great Heavenly Devil Dugu Jimo.
He had crossed paths with him during the devil disaster. In terms of strength, he had reached the Grand Ascension Stage several thousand years earlier than him. Speaking of which, his relationship with him wasn't very good. Frankly speaking, their relationship was bad.
This time, he went to the Devil Realm only to solve the matter of Demon Saint Bao Chi and the Devil Realm Eye. Yi Tian didn't want to face Great Heavenly Devil from the bottom of his heart, so he acted like this.
Although a Grand Ascension Stage cultivator's spirit sense was strong enough to cover tens of thousands of miles, it was still limited. After comparing the area covered by his spirit sense, Yi Tian could find the blind spot of Dugu Jimo's spirit sense.
After the transport fleet flew tens of thousands of miles out of the realm gate and confirmed that it was safe here, Yi Tian's figure slowly disappeared from the cabin. After three breaths, a figure appeared in the sky above the fleet. At this time, Yi Tian didn't appear in the form of the Flame Prison Devil Clan. He remembered that when he entered the Devil Realm, he was doing well in the Flame Prison Devil Clan.
However, things had changed with the passage of time. Those who were familiar with him had also reacted, so it was not very appropriate for him to appear with his old appearance.
After cultivating the Divine Demon Dual Cultivation Method, Yi Tian now appeared in the Devil Realm in the form of a Heavenly Devil Clan cultivator. He believed that such a big change would naturally not be recognized by those who were familiar with him in the past.
At the same time, appearing in this form also had great benefits. In the entire Devil Realm, only the Heavenly Devil Clan had Grand Ascension Stage cultivators. With his current appearance, he could pretend to be Dugu Jimo at the appropriate time. He believed that there were not many people in the Devil Realm who had seen this Grand Ascension Stage cultivator. In this way, he would create favorable conditions for himself to pass off as a fish eye.
However, Yi Tian knew that he couldn't easily get close to the Heavenly Devil Clan with his current appearance. At the same time, there were probably very few in the Devil Realm who knew the whereabouts of the Devil Saint Bao Chi. In addition to the Great Heavenly Devil Dugu Jimo, Yi Tian turned his gaze to the One-eyed Devil Clan cultivator.
Although it was a bit surprising that this fiend had taken over his descendant, the Scarlet-Eyed Devil, it had nothing to do with him. On the contrary, as an old monster who had lived for tens of thousands of years, Dugu Jimo naturally knew the secrets of the Devil Realm in detail. If he wanted to find the location of the Devil Realm Eye, this person was the best candidate.
However, after experiencing the great devil disaster in the Spirit Realm, it was said that after the One-eyed Devil fled back to the Devil Realm, he lived in seclusion. Very few people had seen his whereabouts.
Moreover, this fiend had slandered him in the Devil Realm. Although it was partly to exonerate himself, Yi Tian didn't care about his words at all. This time, he had made up his mind to find him after coming to the Devil Realm.
In fact, the One-eyed Devil's position was also very delicate. He didn't want to be led by the nose by the Devil Saint Bao Chi, but he also wanted to get rid of the Great Heavenly Devil Dugu Jimo's pursuit. Therefore, it was safest to sneak into the depths of the Devil Realm and blend in with the crowd.
Now, he still didn't know what the One-eyed Devil was planning, but Yi Tian knew that with his strength, he naturally couldn't play tricks in front of the Great Heavenly Devil Dugu Jimo, let alone the Devil Saint Bao Chi.
Therefore, for the One-eyed Devil, increasing his strength to advance to the Grand Ascension Stage had become the most important thing at the moment. If he couldn't even reach this point, then there was no need to talk about anything in the future.
Previously, Yi Tian had thought about the plan after entering the Devil Realm. Now that his reputation was out there, it was inconvenient for him to show up easily. And it wasn't so easy to find the One-eyed Devil Clan's One-eyed Devil.
He had long thought that he still had some favors in the Devil Realm that he could use. For example, the Heavenly Devil Clan's Dugu Yaoxiang was the best candidate. But Yi Tian quickly suppressed this idea. First of all, Dugu Yaoxiang was the only remaining Unification Stage cultivator in the Heavenly Devil Clan. Naturally, he could wield authority, but he would definitely be taken care of by the Great Heavenly Devil Dugu Jimo.
If he went to ask him for help, it might attract Dugu Jimo's attention. This was not a joke. Along the way, Yi Tian's main goal was to avoid this guy. It was not a good thing to walk into a trap like this.
Taking a step back, he could go to the Flaming Prison Imperial Uncle Yan Lei. Although the Flaming Prison Demon Emperor didn't have much interaction with him, Yan Lei had met him several times during the demon disaster. Moreover, he had at least given him several opportunities in the past. He believed that with this favor alone, he should be able to get him to help him once.
However, he couldn't just go to the Flaming Prison Imperial Uncle Yan Lei. If he was still in his castle, it would be fine. But he heard that after the Flaming Prison Imperial Uncle led the army back to the Devil Realm, the Flaming Prison Demon Emperor had entrusted him with an important task in the imperial capital to handle government affairs.
After thinking about it, Yi Tian couldn't help but think of a name. He could go and find Yan Tong to investigate the current situation in the Devil Realm. Yan Tong's cultivation base was at the Spirit Severing Intermediate Stage. He had participated in the demon disaster and was considered an experienced cultivator in the Flaming Prison Demon Clan. After following Yan Lei back to the Devil Realm, he would definitely be entrusted with an important task.
Most importantly, he had saved Yan Tong's life twice during the Great Devil Calamity. Yan Tong would not be able to reject any of Lin Li's requests.
After restraining his aura, Yi Tian first hurried to the Flaming Prison Demon Clan's expeditionary army's encampment. Once again, he found many traces of himself. Yan Tong, who was also a consecrator of the expeditionary army, also left many clues.
In the army's stronghold, the cultivator's cultivation base was only at the Spirit Severing Early Stage. Thus, Yi Tian entered the stronghold as if there was no one there. After sneaking in and looking through the expeditionary army's files, he found that Yan Tong had been conscripted to the Rogue Cultivator Alliance's cultivator town on the Coiling Dragon Mountain as the Flaming Prison Demon Clan's deacon elder.
After thinking about it, wasn't the Demon Spine Mountain where he had participated in the elimination of the rogue cultivators on the Coiling Dragon Mountain? He didn't expect that after so many years, that place hadn't been abandoned. Instead, a rogue cultivator town was built there.
The seven major races of the Devil Realm had set up a garrison there. This showed that that place was indeed blessed with a unique geographical advantage. It should have been built as a trading center for the Rogue Cultivator Alliance.
After reading the files stored by the expeditionary army, Yi Tian's figure slowly turned transparent. After three breaths, he disappeared on the spot as if he had never been here.
Half a day later, an inconspicuous escape light flashed across the sky above the Coiling Dragon Mountain, and then hurriedly descended. It effortlessly passed through the city's defensive enchantment and came to the street. At this time, the Coiling Dragon Mountain had been built into a huge military fortress, but there were still several trading areas inside.
Yi Tian's Divine Thought spread out slightly, and soon found the outpost set up by the Flaming Prison Demon Clan here. He then turned around and walked straight there.
