The Di Ting Race

The Heavenly Palace Supreme's expression remained gentle and unchanged, as if he were unsurprised by any sudden turn of events, and he calmly said:

"For them, this is also part of the trial, though it is somewhat harsh. But on the real battlefield, unexpected things can happen at any time, and if they are wise enough, they are capable of dealing with such difficulties."

Clearly, he had no intention of getting involved in the matter.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chu and the others' eyes flickered slightly, vaguely sensing that this might be a test intentionally set by the Heavenly Palace Supreme.

After all, the Supreme was already at the Immortal Emperor Realm, and even possessed the ability to predict the Past and Future, and to see through All Things in the world. How could he not have foreseen this situation?

"If they unite and cooperate, they can be a match for each other; it all depends on whether they can curb their pride."

Emperor Jiang calmly stated that he had no objection to the words of the Heavenly Palace Supreme.

"Wait, the number of Ancient Demon gathered there seems to be increasing. They're using some kind of Innate Secret Art to lure other Ancient Demon Past!"

"That's the Di Ting Race, one of the seven Bloodline of the Ancient Demon."

The Emperor Chu remained calm and composed.

The presence of the Di Ting Royal Clan within suggests that this scene was inevitable. Therefore, it seems that this was all a deliberate arrangement by the Heavenly Palace Supreme.

The other Imperial Emperor glanced at the Heavenly Palace Supreme with slightly shifting eyes.

"If they gather in the thousands, I'm afraid no one can handle them. Even those few Prodigy among them will be in trouble."

Heavenly Illumination Emperor said softly.

The Heavenly Palace Supreme smiled and said, "It's alright. If it really comes to that, and they can't resolve it even with all their strength, I will have my disciple handle it."

Emperor Chu and the others looked at a young man sitting beneath his Dharma body. This was one of the Heavenly Palace Supreme's Personal Disciple, an Immortal King Realm Peak expert who had long been famous in the Southern Region.

The young man didn't even lift his eyelids when faced with the gazes of Emperor Chu and the others. He simply looked down into the Void, seemingly lost in thought.

"Look, Ancient Demon are gathering in other places as well."

"It's quite common for these Ancient Demons to band together for mutual support."

At this time, in the True Immortal Secret Realm, besides the Mountain Range mentioned earlier, there was another group of Ancient Demon gathered by a river.

In the center of the Ancient Demon horde, there was one Ancient Demon long, drooping ears, a distinctive feature compared to the others.

This is Ancient Demon of the Di Ting Race, said to be able to hear sounds that transcend time. Of course, only Ancient Demon of the Di Ting Race with an extremely high level of cultivation can accomplish this.

The strange changes projected within this Secret Realm were reflected in the various Immortal Dynasty, causing everyone to become somewhat tense.

The Ancient Demon gathered in a vast number, while the Human Race mostly fought alone, rarely in groups, and even those who did were only two or three. When they encountered this group of Ancient Demon, they were powerless to resist.

Someone's about to get into trouble!

"That's Princess Hong Yun of my Heavenly Illumination Immortal Dynasty. She single-handedly killed more than a dozen Ancient Demon before; she's incredibly powerful."

"Oh no, she's heading that Past on her own!"

Through the projection, countless people within the Heavenly Illumination Immortal Dynasty became anxious.

Although they were not familiar with Princess Hong Yun before this Southern Region Assembly Battle, the battle now concerns the honor and reputation of the Immortal Dynasty Southern Region, so they naturally hope that their own Immortal Dynasty can go further.

Within the Secret Realm, a crimson-clad female figure swiftly teleported, chasing after the Ancient Demon gathered by the Great River.

She smelled the strong malevolence in the air, a smile appearing in her eyes. With such a strong odor, there must be a large number of Ancient Demon gathered there.

Although she has already obtained the Dao Fire and qualified for advancement, being able to hunt more is also a form of proof.

She believed that others with the ability to do so were also gathering more Dao Fire, just like her!

In the blink of an eye, she teleported to the Great River.

However, as soon as she arrived at this place, a strong sense of malice suddenly rushed towards her, filling her nose and mouth, almost suffocating her.

When she looked closely, her stunningly beautiful face froze slightly. Before her were hundreds of Ancient Demons, and at least a dozen of them had a hidden yet terrifying Aura.

"This is..."

She paused for a moment, then saw hundreds of Ancient Demon staring at her.

Then, the surrounding Heaven and Earth suddenly darkened, as if a dark Barrier had enveloped everything.

Princess Hong Yun!

Outside the secret Beyond the Border, countless people from the Heavenly Illumination Immortal Dynasty witnessed Princess Hong Yun being enveloped by a dark power resembling a Dao Domain.

In the blink of an eye, when it reappeared, an Ancient Demon was holding a slender white arm in its hand, gnawing on it expressionlessly.

Heavenly Illumination Emperor's expression changed slightly. Hong Yun was his daughter, Heavenly Talent talented. Although she wasn't the most Prodigy talent in the Heavenly Illumination Immortal Dynasty's Imperial Family, she was still deeply loved by him.

Moreover, given their strength, they are more than capable of passing the first round of selection, and in the subsequent battles, they may even be able to break into the Top Ten!

And now, he has fallen here.

Upon seeing this, the Emperor Chu and the others remained silent, their brows furrowing slightly.

Whether it was bad luck or excessive pride, I didn't investigate carefully before forging ahead.

But there's no doubt that the little girl hasn't experienced any setbacks, and therefore hasn't learned to be cautious enough.

Moreover, her luck was somewhat bad. Although she clearly had the ability to pass the first round of screening, Heavenly Dao did not Destiny her.

Destiny is the most unpredictable thing, but the deeper one's cultivation, the more one can feel the terror of Destiny and the predetermined existence of all All Things.

Everything's destiny has already been predetermined; it's just that someone has shown it off ahead of time, revealing their own Finality.

Heavenly Illumination Emperor stared intently, inwardly sighing. Fortunately, his Soul Core was still intact, and this reincarnation could be considered a lesson learned.

"They're also gathering in several other places. Once they've each gathered a certain number, they'll definitely unite."

"This is what the Original Venerable Empress said."

At this time, in several other places within the True Immortal Secret Realm, large numbers of Ancient Demon were also gathering.

The Heavenly Palace Supreme watched quietly and smiled, "They were prepared in advance. For these little guys, facing them now might be a bit too hasty. Very well, let's give them a hint."

As he spoke, a rumbling, earth-shaking sound suddenly came from the True Immortal Secret Realm.

Immediately afterwards, large patches of crimson clouds gathered in the sky above where the Ancient Demon had gathered.

The hundreds of figures of the Ancient Demon gathered in the crimson clouds were reflected in the clouds. Although somewhat blurry, they were still extremely conspicuous and eye-catching from a distance.

This crimson cloud acted like a marker, revealing the gathering place of the Ancient Demon.

Upon seeing this, Emperor Chu and the others relaxed their expressions slightly. With such a warning, if they were to approach rashly again, they would deserve to die.

I just hope that when those little ones see this, they will stick together and face it together.

"Um?"

On the Mountain Summit, Di Linchen, who was drinking, suddenly saw the sky tens of thousands of miles ahead turn crimson.

At the same time, a strong sense of malice emanated from there, and after being spread by the red clouds, that malice was like gusts of bloody wind blowing in.

"Such intense malevolence! How many Ancient Demons have gathered there? Judging by the concentration, there must be at least hundreds, if not thousands!"

Di Linchen put down the wine pot in his hand, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

But soon, a smirk appeared on his lips. He stood up, dusted himself off, and muttered to himself:

"This is getting interesting."

As he spoke, he stepped off the Mountain Summit and instantly teleported several times, heading Past the Hong Yun.

Meanwhile, other Heavenly Prodigy within tens of thousands of miles also noticed the crimson cloud. Some were shocked, some were delighted, and many rushed toward the crimson cloud, while others chose to act cautiously and stay away from the area.

Before long, many figures gathered at the edge of the red clouds.

Some people looked excited, but when they got closer and saw the scene reflected in the crimson clouds—hundreds of Ancient Demon huddled together—their expressions changed drastically, and some turned and fled.

"Um?"

Li Hao, who was searching for the Ancient Demon, also noticed the crimson clouds that suddenly appeared in the distance, as well as the strong and familiar scent.

He paused for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and he chased Past.

"Wait for me."

Gu Xingwan exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly gave chase, only to see several streaks of light thousands of miles away also heading towards the crimson cloud.

Soon, they all stopped a thousand miles away from the crimson clouds, and at this moment they could see the blurry scene reflected in the crimson clouds.

"So much?"

Li Hao was overjoyed when he saw the outlines of hundreds of Ancient Demons; they were just too tempting.

Suddenly, Li Hao sensed several familiar Aura, his eyes lit up, and he called out to Gu Xingwan before quickly flying Past.

"Haotian."

As soon as Li Hao appeared by teleportation, Lin Qingying, dressed in a green robe, saw him and exclaimed in surprise.

But soon, Lin Qingying saw Gu Xingwan following behind Li Hao. Seeing the girl in her pale yellow dress, with her bright eyes and beautiful features, Lin Qingying's expression faltered slightly, but she quickly recovered and asked Li Hao:

Who is this?

"Friend."

Li Hao noticed the change in Lin Qingying's eyes, but he had no ulterior motives and answered very frankly.

Seeing the look in Li Hao's eyes, Lin Qingying knew Li Hao wasn't lying, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She then asked, "Are you also here for these Ancient Demons? But there are so many; I thought there were only a dozen or so."

"This is quite a large-scale operation."

Li Hao turned his head to look, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes.

Just then, he suddenly saw a figure appear in the distance, and couldn't help but laugh, waving and saying, "You've come too."

When Di Linchen saw Li Hao, his gaze swept over the two women beside Li Hao, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips. He appeared as if by teleportation and said with a hint of teasing:

Your life is much more carefree than mine.

Li Hao said with a hint of helplessness, "Don't joke around, you're here for these Ancient Demon too?"

"Hmm, gathering so many at once is starting to become a disaster."

Di Linchen looked at the crimson cloud, but his expression remained unchanged.

"Really."

Li Hao nodded. If an ordinary person encountered such a large number of Ancient Demon, they would probably have difficulty even escaping.

At this moment, Gu Xingwan and Lin Qingying were also observing Di Linchen, secretly alarmed. They realized that the person Li Hao knew was unfathomably powerful, giving them an indescribable feeling that if they were to become his enemy, they would be defeated in an instant.

At this moment, streams of light gathered one after another, but they all stayed a thousand miles away from the crimson cloud and did not approach rashly.

These Aura, some exuding a powerful aura and others emitting no Aura at all, were all observing the crimson cloud and watching the movements of others.

Suddenly, two streaks of light flew towards Li Hao.

When the light faded, two young men appeared, both with extremely cold demeanors.

"Um?"

When the two men saw Di Linchen, their expressions changed slightly. One of them whispered, "The Emperor Clan?"

Di Linchen withdrew his gaze from the crimson clouds, glanced at them indifferently, and remained silent.

Feeling the pressure of Di Linchen's gaze, the two of them looked rather unpleasant. They hadn't expected to encounter such a formidable member of the Emperor Clan here. Fortunately, the other party didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards them at the moment.

"You must be the youngest among those Soul Lifespan, daring to come here. You've got guts. Want to join forces with me to deal with this Ancient Demon Tide?"

One of the young men extended an invitation to Li Hao, saying, "I am Miao Bubai, Imperial Clan of the Red Frontier Immortal Dynasty Miao Bubai."

Li Hao's eyes showed a thoughtful expression. He could handle the Ancient Demon Tide on his own, but it would expose many of his trump cards. It would be better if someone could help him.

"If we join forces, I can give up some of the Dao Fire, but I want the Ancient Demon Corpse."

Li Hao said.

Miao Bubai was taken aback, glancing at Li Hao with some surprise, but had no objection. "No problem."

Then, he looked at another young man beside him and asked, "What about you? Are you willing?"

"OK."

The young man responded crisply and coldly, but his gaze swept over Di Linchen, clearly indicating that he wanted to invite him to join as well.

Seeing that Li Hao had accepted Miao Bubai's invitation, Di Linchen glanced at Li Hao, chuckled, and said:

"You seem quite interested in the corpse of the Ancient Demon. Is there some use for it?"

"Collect."

Li Hao coughed lightly and said, "It would be quite shocking to talk about Cooking Ancient Demon in public like this."

Di Linchen couldn't help but laugh and said, "That's quite a quirk. But if you want it, I'll give it to you after I deal with these Ancient Demons."

"Thank you very much."

Li Hao didn't stand on ceremony.

Miao Bubai couldn't help but glance at Li Hao sideways. He hadn't expected that this youngest Soul Lifespan expert would have such a good relationship with the Emperor Clan. He couldn't help but take Li Hao more seriously and said to Di Linchen:

"With you on board, we can find a few more people and then we should be able to get started."

Di Linchen glanced at him indifferently and said, "I never join forces with others. I can handle these Ancient Demon myself. If you want to make a move, feel free, but be careful not to get accidentally injured."

Miao Bubai was stunned, a hint of astonishment in his eyes. So many Ancient Demons, and the other party was going to deal with them all by himself?

These are not ordinary True Immortal Realm Perfection Ancient Demon at the peak of the True Immortal Realm; they are all elites, including members of royalty.

I'm going now.

Di Linchen had no intention of lingering. He spoke gently to Li Hao and then flew directly towards the crimson cloud.

Li Hao watched the other person leave without following.

"Is that your friend? Did he go alone?"

Lin Qingying couldn't help but ask Li Hao in a low voice, her eyes showing worry.

Li Hao nodded and said, "It's alright, he should be able to handle it."

Gu Xingwan asked in surprise, "When did you meet such a strong guy?"

We just met.

Li Hao smiled.

At this moment, Di Linchen had already charged into the crimson clouds.

Meanwhile, the Ancient Demon within the crimson cloud had already been alarmed by it, letting out a furious roar as if denouncing the injustice of the Heavenly Palace Supreme.

In the sky, a majestic Dharma Form suddenly appeared; it was none other than Di Linchen.

Meanwhile, the many shimmering figures who had arrived at the edge of the crimson clouds and stopped to watch were also taken aback, not expecting anyone to dare to go and fight alone.
