Jiang Hao brought up the matter of eliminating the Black Mountain Old Demon again. "The Black Mountain Old Demon was formed from the resentment of the bones piled up on Black Mountain in the City of Wrongful Deaths, hence the name. He feeds on resentment to strengthen himself. I sent people to infiltrate the place in secret and have gained a preliminary understanding of the old demon's situation."
"The old demon occupies the City of Wrongful Deaths. He now has three great generals under his command, each at the high Ghost King realm. He also commands three thousand ghost soldiers at the Ghost General level and five thousand Underworld Constables. Within the city are another hundred thousand wronged souls for the Black Mountain Old Demon to command. His strength is formidable."
Everyone's expressions turned grave. From the information uncovered so far, they could already tell that the Black Mountain Old Demon's power was terrifying.
Just then, the Golden Core Sect's leader declared, "Eliminating demons is the duty we cultivators cannot shirk. Now that we have joined the City God Mansion, should anything arise, City God, please give us your orders."
"Indeed. Such a demon brings chaos to the underworld and harms living beings. He must be eradicated. The Seventy-Two Immortal Sects are all gathered here now—are we supposed to fear him?" someone else said.
Many sect leaders and elders stepped forward, all agreeing to slay the demon. Even great sects such as Shushan, Dragon Tiger Mountain, and Maoshan, which had not yet promised to join the City God Mansion, agreed to send people to eliminate the demon. Thus, the matter was settled, far more easily than Jiang Hao had expected.
Jiang Hao cupped his hands. "In that case, please return to your respective sects and arrange those who will participate.
