Northern Frontier, Ten Thousand Fox Valley's main hall.
Heavenly Tail Demon Emperor, dressed in black robes, sat alone in the seat of honor at the head of the hall. More than a dozen Nascent Soul Demon Emperors stood in rows on either side.
Several of them were visibly tainted by Demonic Energy, and their injuries appeared quite severe.
"Silver Tail, how is the situation at the Heavenly Demon Graveyard? How exactly was the Ancestor injured?"
"Your Highness, the Ancestor and we had originally entered the graveyard without incident.
But then more than a dozen troublesome Level 4 Demonic Fiends suddenly appeared inside. Drawing upon the True Demonic Energy within the valley, their divine abilities were scarcely inferior to those of Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivators. We were no match for them at all.
The Ancestor was injured by the Demonic Beasts while covering our breakout.
And it was not only us. The Thunder Tiger Clan also lost five or six fellow Daoists. Fellow Daoist Green Tiger and Fellow Daoist Red Flame's Natal Nascent Souls did not even escape."
In response to Heavenly Tail Demon Emperor's question, a middle-aged man below, clad in silver armor and wearing an unsightly expression, hurriedly rose and answered.
"More than a dozen Nascent Soul Late Stage Demonic Fiends? Could the Demonic Energy in the valley have worsened again?"
"Your Highness, it seems the situation in the valley is far more complicated than we previously imagined. We and the Thunder Tiger Clan alone can no longer resolve this trouble.
Now that the Demonic Beast army in the south has been defeated by the human race, the Carefree Sect must have found reinforcements.
At a time like this, we might as well see whether we can join forces with them and completely eliminate the Demonic Calamity."
"Mm!
