Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming-Chapter 423 - 420 The Possibility of the Demon Sects

Chapter 423: Chapter 420 The Possibility of the Demon Sect’s Rise Chapter 423 -420 The Possibility of the Demon Sect’s Rise Under the deceiving words of the Rebirth Sect Master, the minds of the ordinary cult members were quickly stabilized.

They thought about it, and it made sense. The Demon Sects were scattered across the lands of the Five Domains, and although there was communication between them, it was mostly carried out through sub-branches. Even the Rebirth Sect Master, leader of the Demon Sects, wasn’t clear on where the other Demon Sects were hidden, let alone those from the Righteous Path Sects.

If the Sky Scorpion Elder and the others had understated the number of Demon Sects involved, these Demon Dao Cultivators might have believed it. But since they had lumped all the Demon Sects together, doubts naturally filled the minds of these Demon Cultivators.

Not to mention, the location of the Heavenly Demon Sect was not something that the Righteous Path Sects could find.

That was because the true headquarters of the Heavenly Demon Sect was not fixed in any place within the Five Domains; instead, it was within the Grotto Heaven World of the Heavenly Demon Treasure, and it could be moved at any time.

As Demon Cultivators, they naturally knew the reputation of the Heavenly Demon Treasure, touted as the first Demon Treasure of the Demon Dao.

Legend had it that the Heavenly Demon Treasure had infinite marvelous uses, not only could it conceal the Heavenly Mechanism Prediction, but it also held its own Grotto Heaven and could traverse space at will.

The Heavenly Demon Sect Leader, wielding the Heavenly Demon Treasure, could wander anywhere from the southern lands to the northern reaches. It was said that since the Ancient Great Tribulation, the Heavenly Demon Treasure never stayed in one place for more than a 60-year cycle. Moreover, it was usually hidden in the void. Who could find it?

In the Underground Palace, the ordinary disciples, including the Inner Sect Elders, all settled down, but within the Rebirth Palace, more than a dozen Supreme Elders looked as grim as death.

If they remembered correctly, the Sect Master had just sent out a message not long ago. Not to mention that the Heavenly Demon Sect Leader surely wouldn’t have received his message so soon; even if he had, it would be impossible for him to use the Heavenly Demon Treasure as a means of communication.

Unless the Heavenly Demon Treasure had previously located their Rebirth Sect’s Underground Palace and left behind a corresponding Treasure, how could it possibly communicate over tens of thousands of miles to tell the Rebirth Sect Master these things?

Though the Heavenly Demon Treasure had infinite marvelous uses, it wasn’t a Divine Weapon of Creation; surely it couldn’t have easily transmitted those words?

Therefore, the Sect Master’s earlier words were deceiving the Sect Disciples!

“Sect Master…”

An old man with a bizarre appearance and seemingly burning ghost fire in the depths of his eye sockets looked at the Rebirth Sect Master, his voice full of hesitation, “What you said just now…”

“Yes, I was deceiving them!” The Rebirth Sect Master admitted bluntly.

“Why would you do that?”

Many Yangshen Elders looked at the Rebirth Sect Master, “Could it be that the situation is really as those people outside say, and the Demon Sects are in decline, found by the Righteous Path, who are preparing to completely eradicate us cultivators of the Demon Dao?”

“How would I know!”

The Rebirth Sect Master sighed helplessly, “No matter if it’s true or false, we can only say it’s so. Otherwise, once the disciples below become disordered, they will not defend calmly. If there is no one to manage the Arrays everywhere, it will be easy for those outsiders to break in, and then we’d be finished.”

“That means those people were lying earlier.”

Another man, whose body was filled with an evil aura, exhaled with relief, “These people of the Righteous Path, full of lies, always talking nonsense!”

“Maybe not.”

A woman in black robes threw cold water on him, “The Righteous and Demon Paths are incompatible. If Righteous Path Cultivators have the chance to completely annihilate us, they certainly wouldn’t miss it.

Perhaps over these tens of thousands of years, they’ve figured out all the Demon Sects’ strongholds.”

“Humph, Ming Xin, you want to argue with me, but you should pay attention to the timing. Now, as the Righteous Path Cultivators are forming an alliance to besiege our Rebirth Sect, do you still resist me, wishing to die faster?”

“What does your death have to do with me!”

The woman named Ming Xin had a cold expression, “Not to speak of whether these people can breach the defenses of our Rebirth Sect; even if they do, this Elder isn’t without a chance to escape. As for you… heh, it’s best if you die!”

“Ming Xin.”

The man was furious, “If you seek death, I will fulfill your wish right now!”

“Do you think you’re worthy?”

Ming Xin scoffed disdainfully, “Do you really think it’s still thousands of years ago when my Cultivation was low, and you could bully me at will?

Ye Shijing, during all these years, I’ve been immersing myself in Cultivation, and even risked walking in the Cultivation World for a thousand years to progress, seizing bodies from Inner Sect Elders of various Sects, nourishing my Soul with their vitality, and finally attaining Yangshen.

I’ve diligently cultivated these years and am not the least bit weaker than you. Dare to provoke me again, and see if I won’t kill you first!”

“You…”

“Enough!” The Rebirth Sect Master on the platform shouted angrily, stopping the two’s quarrel: “Don’t you see what time it is, and you’re still infighting? Do you really want to be completely annihilated by the Righteous Path Cultivators outside?”

Seeing the Rebirth Sect Master angry, the two quieted down a bit, snorted coldly, turned their heads away, and stopped paying attention to each other.

“The situation at hand is unpredictable, only by standing united can we have the chance to survive this disaster!”

The Rebirth Sect Master looked towards the group of Supreme Elders and said, “Regardless of whether someone comes to help us or not, we must defend for as many days as possible.

If what the cultivators outside said is false, then naturally, at that time, other members of the Demon Sects will lend a hand.

If it’s true that the Righteous Path Cultivators are mounting a major offensive to surround and annihilate many Demon Sects, then it would mean the other Demon Sects are already overwhelmed and naturally unable to aid us.

At that point, we’d have to find a way to break through and flee, seeking a hidden place to cultivate in secret.”

“Sect Master, do you mean to say that it’s really possible that the Righteous Path Cultivators might besiege the various Demon Sects?”

Many Supreme Elders still found it hard to believe.

“It’s not impossible!”

The Rebirth Sect Master said, “Now, with the Five Domains Alliance of the Biluo Great World reaching a consensus and embarking on an expedition into the Void, leaving us Demon Dao Cultivators around might not be in their best interest.”

With these words, the many Yangshen Realm powerhouses on either side were visibly shaken.

“But you all needn’t worry too much.”

The Rebirth Sect Master tried to reassure them, “The reason I calmed the emotions of the Sect Disciples just now was to hope they could hold out for a few more days.

If we can use the Defensive Array Prohibition to wear down the strength of the cultivators outside, we’d have a chance to bring as many disciples as possible to break through.

As a retreat, even if it’s difficult to break out, we can escape through the secret passage. As long as we live, the Rebirth Sect will not perish.”

He paused for a moment, then continued, “Moreover, I believe that the present state of the Cultivation World is actually the most advantageous time for us.”

“Sect Master, what do you mean by that?”

People were puzzled.

“Heh, have you forgotten why, after all these years, none of us Demon Dao Cultivators have achieved Proving Dao Immortality? Isn’t it because of the obstruction of the Heavenly Dao, leaving us to only watch as one Righteous Path Cultivator after another advanced, becoming stronger and stronger, and leaving us far behind?”

The Rebirth Sect Master laughed, “But with the factions’ cultivators launching expeditions, invading other worlds, this actually brings us opportunities.”

“Just like the Beast Taming Sect’s occupation of the Red Flame Demon Realm, among the Void Ten Thousand Realms, there must be many worlds suitable for us Demon Dao cultivators to thrive.

As long as we find the opportunity to enter them, those beings from different worlds will be unaware of our capabilities, and by then they will be at our mercy to plunder their lives as nourishment to increase our own strength.

Among all the factions of the Demon Dao, there are many like me who have been stuck at the peak of Profound Immortal for many years. Once we enter other worlds, we will have the possibility to achieve Proving Dao Immortality.

As long as we succeed in Proving Dao, how many Great Powers will our Demon Dao factions gain by then?

Moreover, we can also use the resources of other worlds to train countless disciples. Even if we are temporarily unable to confront the Righteous Path sects head-on, we will still have the opportunity to grow stronger.

Furthermore, as long as we break free from the Heavenly Dao seals of the Biluo Great World, there’s no reason we can’t communicate with all realms and initiate the Great Tribulation once again.

That will be the time for the great rise of our Demon Dao.”

“Right, we could also secretly infiltrate other worlds.”

An excited Elder said, “Although the Beast Taming Sect keeps a strict watch over the Space Gates, preventing us from entering, as more and more worlds are conquered by the various sects in the future, their attention to other worlds will gradually wane.

Furthermore, not all sects value other worlds so much, nor will they attach such importance to every world. The Rebirth Sect, unlike other sects, does not overly rely on cultivation resources. Instead, we value those beings more. As long as there are enough beings, we can enhance our strength.

Hence, we don’t necessarily have to aim for a Medium World. It is also fine to target those Low Rank Worlds conquered by smaller sects.

As long as the Sect Leader achieves Proving Dao Immortality, the strength of our Rebirth Sect will surely make a great leap. By then, we could even directly invade a Medium Sect and act under that Medium Sect’s name, we might gain even greater loot.”

“If we perform a blood sacrifice of a world’s inhabitants, there might be a chance to connect through the Netherworld, which would give us countless supporters.”

“The Great Powers of the Heavenly Demon Sect are surely also devising ways to connect to the Heavenly Demon Realm. Perhaps we won’t even need to be successful ourselves before the Great Powers of the Heavenly Demon Realm have already made contact.

Once the Heavenly Demon Realm can lock onto the location of the Biluo Great World again, they will inevitably inform those worlds that invaded Biluo during Ancient Times. After all, powerful as the Heavenly Demon Realm may be, they do not have the strength to conquer Biluo alone and must find allies.”

“That’s right, the grudges from the time of the Ancient Great Tribulation have been forged. The saying goes, ‘If the snake is not killed, it will bring future calamity.’ Should the Biluo Great World rise in strength again, it will certainly seek revenge upon those worlds for the ancient grievances. Both the Heavenly Demon Realm and the Heavenly Demon Realm would certainly not wish for Biluo to come knocking.”

For a moment, these Demon Dao cultivators seemed to have forgotten the dangers outside, completely immersed in their fantasies of a glorious future.

Until a thundering crash came. A violent attack struck down, causing the mountains to tremble and the Underground Palace to shake, snapping them back to reality.

“The cultivators outside are starting their assault!”

“We can’t let them break through.”

The Rebirth Sect Master stood up abruptly and shouted, “Elders, I ask that you lead your disciples to defend the Array Formation Restriction at all points, repel the Righteous Path cultivators with all your might. Even if we can’t hold them off, try to inflict as much damage as possible on the Righteous Path cultivators to ease our burden when we break out.”

“Rest assured, Sect Leader! We will do our utmost and not let you down!”

The Elders all stood up and replied in unison, then they left the Underground Palace. Calls rang out throughout the palace, “All disciples of the Extinction Sect, follow me.”

“My disciples, to the arrays and defenses, do not let a single Righteous Path cultivator in.”

“…”

As one Yangshen power-wielding Supreme Elder after another gave the commands, it did not take long for disciples to take their positions at various Array Formation Restrictions, ready to assist the arrays in a full-force defense and counterattack.

Soon, in the vast space of the Rebirth Palace, only the Rebirth Sect Master and a pale-faced youth remained.

“Sigh…”

Seeing that the Supreme Elders had all been mobilized, full of confidence as they led their people to the defenses, the Rebirth Sect Master finally let out a long breath.

“Sect Leader…”

The youth felt a bit of restlessness in his heart.

“Zi’er, there’s no need to panic,”

The Rebirth Sect Master reassured him, “Don’t worry, nothing will happen. Even if the Righteous Path Cultivators do manage to break in, I will make sure you are sent away first.

The Elders have all gone to repel the enemy now. Remember not to stray too far from me, as it would be troublesome if we were to be separated during our escape.”

“Yes, father.”

Hearing the boy address him as father instead of Sect Leader at this moment, the Rebirth Sect Master felt a surge of relief in his heart.

However, as the various factions of the Righteous Path had already begun their siege, he quickly suppressed his emotions and turned his attention to the massive array of the Underground Palace.

Outside, the cultivators of the various factions deployed their troops and set up arrays according to the plan they had agreed upon in advance.

The four major Sects took positions on all four sides, with dozens of smaller and medium-sized Sects following closely behind them.

Once they had formed their arrays, at the signal to commence the attack, the Wanfa Sect’s disciples, who were the fastest at casting spells, took the lead.

Under the shout of the leading Elder, a multitude of Wanfa Sect disciples linked their energies and, with their True Yuan, conjured a Sky-Covering Giant Hand that slammed down with a thunderous crash.

With just one palm strike, the ground shook, and mountains crumbled.

Next was the turn of the Divine Weapon Family.

Under the command of one of the Elders, countless cultivators from the Divine Weapon Family sent out several Spiritual Artifacts and Magical Treasures from their bodies, which then merged into a colossal War Hammer, smashing down with indomitable fury.

Boom!

With this strike, the already fractured mountain, previously damaged by the Wanfa Sect, was completely obliterated by the Divine Weapon Family’s hammer.

Following that, the Beast Taming Sect’s War Formation above summoned a giant beast phantom.

The beast opened its mouth to exhale a burst of Gang Wind, ferociously blowing all the rocks and soil beneath into dust, revealing a layer of earth-yellow Protective Shield that enveloped a vast Underground Palace.

“Hmph, a bunch of Demon Cultivators hiding in the shadows, yet daring to be obstinate and kill our Righteous Path Cultivators so audaciously. This is not Ancient Times; such insolence truly deserves death!”

With a cold snort from the Sky Scorpion Elder, a rainbow-hued poisonous mist suddenly spewed out from the Five Poisons Sect’s disciples.

The moment this poisonous mist touched the Defensive Shield below, a hissing sound emerged immediately—the sound of the Protective Shield being corroded by lethal toxins.

And as the radiant toxic mist descended, innumerable Poison Insects followed, each landing on the Protective Shield, gnashing their vicious maws, and frenetically chewing on the Spiritual Power within the shield.

These Poison Insects didn’t care how robust the Protective Shield was, nor did they concern themselves with whether it contained Demonic Qi.

In fact, many of them had been cultivated in the Red Flame Demon Realm and were even more drawn to Demonic Qi.

Thus, in no time at all, the swarm of insects had gnawed a hole through the Protective Shield.

But the cultivators of the Rebirth Sect were not entirely defenseless.

After all, they had been fortifying this location with countless layers of Prohibition Arrays for tens of thousands of years. Continuous extraction of energy from the Underground Spiritual Veins kept the Array formations operating, while many Rebirth Sect disciples collectively wielded Demon Techniques, also incessantly exterminating the Poison Insects.
