Human Race Great Tribulation

Candle Dragon's words invigorated East King Duke.

Who was Candle Dragon?

That was an old monster who survived the Dragon-Han Tribulation. His strength was unfathomable, and he was definitely a top-tier powerhouse among Quasi-Sage!

If he were to act without regard to the cost, he would definitely have a chance to replace either Di Jun or Taiyi Yi!

He was about to speak when Candle Dragon continued.

"However, I have one condition."

"Fellow Daoist, please speak," East King Duke.

"All Dragon Clan descendants who have joined your Immortal Court must return to the Dragon Clan."

"They will not participate in this great battle."

"The great war has begun. My Dragon Clan will lead all its members to retreat to the East Sea Eye and remain sealed off from the outside world."

The East King Duke's expression changed instantly.

You want my Immortal Court to fight the entire Demon Clan alone?!

"This is my bottom line." Candle Dragon's attitude was non-negotiable.

"If your Immortal Court wins this battle, my Dragon Clan will leave the Sea Eye and continue to submit to your Immortal Court."

"If your Immortal Court is defeated..."

Candle Dragon didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was already clear.

If the Immortal Court is defeated, then the Dragon Clan will have to fend for themselves.

If they're lucky, they'll barely survive in the Sea Eye; if they're unlucky, their entire clan will probably be wiped out.

The East King Duke paced back and forth inside the main hall.

He didn't want to agree to Candle Dragon.

But then Candle Dragon threw out a bait that he couldn't refuse.

Kill Di Jun, or Taiyi!

If either Di Jun or Taiyi can be killed, the Demon Clan will suffer a great loss of strength, and the pressure on the Immortal Court will be greatly reduced.

Moreover, it would be pointless to force those Dragon Clan cultivators to stay in the Immortal Court.

Their role is not as great as Candle Dragon's; if they were left in the Immortal Court, Candle Dragon would have to take care of them.

Instead, it would be better to let them return to the Dragon Clan, so that Candle Dragon can focus all his efforts on dealing with Di Jun or Taiyi without any worries.

He stopped and stared intently at the Candle Dragon.

"Can you guarantee you can kill one of them?"

"Of course, if I say I can kill, then I can kill," Candle Dragon said calmly.

"You don't need to worry about me not contributing. If your Immortal Court perishes, my Dragon Clan can only eke out a living."

"Di Jun will not let anyone involved in this matter go unpunished."

Helping you is helping myself.

This reason is irrefutable.

"Good."

I promise you.

"All Dragon Clan may now leave the Immortal Court and return to the East Sea."

A flicker of expression finally appeared on Candle Dragon's aged face.

It's a deal.

The East King Duke did not linger; he turned and transformed into a streak of light, leaving the Dragon Palace.

Watching his departing figure, a Dragon Clan elder stepped forward with a worried expression.

"Ancestor, do we really have to..."

Candle Dragon waved his hand, interrupting him.

He turned around and looked in the direction of Penglai Immortal Island, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

"Pass down the order."

"All Dragon Clan!"

"Prepare... to retreat to the Sea Eye!"

Upon returning to Penglai Immortal Island, the East King Duke stood before the main hall of the Immortal Court, unleashing an unprecedented fighting spirit.

Since there is no way to retreat...

Then let's fight!

"Reveal my decree!"

"All Immortal Court, prepare for war!"

Heavenly Court.

Di Jun returned from the Empress Wa's Palace and stepped into the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

Taiyi was already waiting there.

"Elder Brother, how are you?"

"Little Ten, with Her Your Ladyship watching over you, you're alright."

Taiyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Di Jun's face was expressionless, and his voice was frighteningly calm.

"How is the Demon Army's assembly progressing?"

A brutal killing intent flashed across Taiyi's face.

"Elder Brother, rest assured, more than half of the Demon Army has been assembled, and the entire force will be here soon."

"Then we can flatten the East Sea!"

At this point, Taiyi paused, as if remembering something, and continued.

"Elder Brother, there's something I need that might be very helpful in our attack on the Immortal Court."

"Explain."

Di Jun's voice was completely calm.

"A Demon Marshal accidentally discovered this while attempting to forge a new Magic Treasure."

"Using the Essence Blood and soul of the Human Clan, a magical Magic Treasure can be crafted specifically to counter the Protective Immortal Light of Immortal Court cultivators."

"Hmm?" Di Jun raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"Human Clan?"

That weak race created by the Nuwa?

A sense of doubt arose in his heart. Could that race, whom he considered like ants, really have such a function?

Taiyi nodded emphatically.

"That's right! It's the Human Clan!"

"I've personally tested that Magic Treasure, and it truly has an extremely strong restraining effect on cultivators of the Immortal Court!"

Taiyi's breathing became somewhat rapid. He looked at Di Jun and asked.

"Elder Brother, should we... mass-produce this kind of Magic Treasure?"

"If our army were equipped with such powerful weapons, conquering Penglai Immortal Island would be twice as easy!"

Taiyi added another sentence after saying this.

"The only slightly troublesome thing is that most of the Human Clan is now concentrated in the territory of the Wu Clan."

Upon hearing the words "Wu Clan," Di Jun fell silent.

But he quickly suppressed his emotions.

All nine of his sons died.

His only bloodline was raised in the Empress Wa's Palace.

What else does he have to worry about?

"Any means are acceptable as long as they contribute to the attack on the Immortal Court."

"Human Clan are nothing but ants living on the territory of the Wu Clan, not the Wu Clan themselves!"

"The Wu Clan might not wage war against my Demon Clan for the sake of a weak, unrelated race."

A cold, resolute expression appeared on Di Jun's face.

"Taiyi."

You will arrange this matter personally.

"First, wipe out all the Human Clan outside the Wu Clan's territory and collect their Essence Blood, and souls."

"As for the territory of the Wu Clan... proceed with caution, kill as many as you can, and avoid conflict with the Wu Clan."

"If they don't intervene, then they will slaughter the entire Human Clan!"

"If they try to stop us, then we should retreat for now!"

"Our current targets are the Immortal Court and the Dragon Clan!"

"Yes, Elder Brother!"

Having said that, Taiyi accepted the order and left, transforming into a Golden Light and disappearing from the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

Buzhou Mountain, Pangu Hall.

Zhou Ming had been keeping a close eye on the movements of the Demon Clan.

When he saw countless Demon Clan rushing towards the Human Tribe throughout the Primordial Wilderness world, his brows furrowed deeply.

What was bound to happen, happened.

Heavenly Dao, fate has brought this game of chess to this point.

The Demon Clan race slaughters humans!

Zhou Ming's mind raced.

"The Human Clan today is no longer as weak as it once was."

"Moreover, most of them are under the protection of my Wu Clan. Why is Heavenly Dao forcibly pushing the Demon Clan to slaughter humans? What exactly is it trying to do?"

"Do you think I won't intervene?"

"Or is there some other motive behind this?"

He originally intended to take direct action and wipe out all the Demon Soldier who were slaughtering Human Clan, as a warning to the Demon Clan.

But just as he was about to make his move, he suddenly remembered something.

His gaze pierced through endless space and landed on the Human Clan Ancestral Land, in a secluded chamber where someone was currently in seclusion.

Wu, Suiren, Youchao, Ziyi Shi and Xuandu.

The five people's auras merged into one, and the Martial Dao True Intent intertwined and collided above their heads, evolving into endless changes.

They have made tremendous progress.

They have already explored a vague outline of the future path of Martial Path.

But that's all.

They were stuck at the last step, just one step away from victory.

But this one kick was like an insurmountable chasm, impossible to cross.

It's unknown how many more years it will take before it truly succeeds.

Zhou Ming watched this scene and suddenly smiled.

"Martial Path cannot be achieved through solitary, solitary training."

True Martial Path are honed in battle and blossom in the face of life and death.

"Fine."

"Since you can't find your way, let the Demon Clan lend you a hand."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Ming sent Divine Sense that instantly traversed the void and entered Hou Yi's mind.

"Hou Yi, go to Wu's secluded retreat and awaken him."

Tell him that the Demon Clan is slaughtering Human Clan.

"Let him go and save his people."
