Accusation

"Supreme Elder."

"The Ancient Palace Master".

"Sacred Jiang."

Outside the Demon Abyss, one after another, Heavenly Lords, Mystic Immortals, and True Immortals who had been waiting came forward to greet them, their expressions filled with concern.

Gu Jinlai waved his hand to indicate that he was unharmed, and then went straight to the point. "I have reached an agreement with the Demonic Spirit. There will be no more conflict between the two sides in the short term. All the demon emperors of the Demon Realm will retreat and return to the Demon Realm. All Demonic Spirit of the disaster level and above will not be allowed to enter the realm of immortality in the future. And we in the realm of immortality will not invade the Demon Realm and completely destroy Demon Realm."

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Xi, who was waiting outside. "Without those Demon Emperors, Demon Gods, and Demon Spirits, and without any Calamity-level or higher Demonic Spirit, I think with our strength, we can soon wipe out all the remaining Demonic Beasts in the Realm of Immortality."

"Certainly."

Zhao Xishen nodded emphatically.

The Western Heavenly Spirit Jade Immortal Master, who also came from the same origin, was somewhat unwilling. "These Demonic Beasts... are we just going to let them retreat back to the Demon Realm unscathed? The crimes they have committed in our Eternal Realm over the years, the number of humans they have slaughtered, are too numerous to recount... We..."

There has been no reply Gu Jinlai.

Zhao Xi was also looking at him.

He knew that there must have been reasons for making this decision Gu Jinlai.

Otherwise, given their Gu Jinlai character and near-zero tolerance for Demonic Beasts, it would be impossible for them to choose to temporarily set aside their hatred for Demonic Beasts.

Throughout Gu Jinlai...

After pondering for a moment, he switched to using divine thought to send a message: "With our current strength, we cannot defeat the Demon Realm! In recent years, the Demon Realm has only used two of the five Devil Masters to invade our Eternal Realm. Even the second one only joined in recent years. They still have three Devil Masters who are exploring and searching other worlds to find a way out for the Demon Realm. Once they recall those three Devil Masters and Demonic Spirit, the battle will inevitably fall into a stalemate again."

"That's not the only reason, is it?"

Zhao Xidao.

"Right."

Gu Jinlai nodded. "The second reason is that once all five Devil Master return and a full-scale war breaks out between them and our Eternal Realm, a mishap could shake the Spirit Realm, thereby exposing the evil gods hidden in the True Spirit Realm..."

He paused slightly as he said this.

By now, a terrifying thought has taken root in his mind.

Could it be...?

The true spirit world is that evil god!?

Or perhaps, that evil god merged with the spirit realm of the Immortal Realm, which is why the spirit realm of the Immortal Realm is so special.

The thought lingered in his mind for a moment, but he quickly suppressed it and continued with the topic at hand, "If we wage a full-scale war against the Demon Realm, we may awaken that evil god. Even if we defeat the Demon Realm in the future and kill all the Devil Master and Demonic Spirit in the Demon Realm, they will inevitably awaken the evil god and perish together with us at the moment of defeat... Therefore, no matter the outcome of this war, it will be extremely disadvantageous for our Eternal Realm."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xi opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately didn't know where to begin.

An evil god slumbers in the realm of immortality.

Once the evil god awakens, the first thing it will destroy is the Realm of Immortality.

In this case...

Indeed, as has been said Gu Jinlai, regardless of victory or defeat, the Immortal Realm will always "lose" after a full-scale war with the Demon Realm.

"In the more than one hundred years since the Demon Realm invaded, the price paid by the Immortal Realm has been unimaginably heavy. This matter will not be easily forgotten, but... it is not a wise choice to start a full-scale war before we have enough confidence."

Gu Jinlai, the divine thought paused slightly, "Moreover, I have a third consideration in choosing to cease hostilities."

"What?"

"I."

Gu Jinlai calmly replied, "I need time."

"Time..."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xi seemed to realize something. "You mean..."

"When I entered the Demon Realm just now, I fought with the Devil Master Cangming. Our guess was correct. Whether it is mental power or spiritual power, it all originates from the soul. It is a manifestation of the soul's power reflected in the material world and the energy world. Mental power does have a significant killing effect on Demonic Spirit."

Gu Jinlai said, "If my mental realm can break through the nine heavens and step into the six realms, I will officially have the ability to suppress the Devil Master. If I can take another step forward in the six realms stage, the threat of Demonic Spirit will be easily resolved. If I can take two steps, I can even kill them all without giving them a chance to awaken the evil god."

"Two steps..."

Zhao Xi muttered to himself, "The Heavenly Dao Realm!?"

Gu Jinlai nodded.

The Six Realms and the Six Paths of Realm that have been passed down from the Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty are quite similar.

The first realm of the Six Paths is the Human Path, the second is the Earth Path, and the third is the Heavenly Dao.

After that comes divinity, immortality, and extinction.

The third realm...

In the Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty, and even tens of thousands of years ago, the most glorious era of the Xuanhuang Alliance was a realm that only a handful of people, including the Human Emperor Zhou Huang, had ever reached.

As for the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect's Ancestor, who could fight against multiple Great Dao Golden Immortals single-handedly, his mental cultivation level was only at the Human Dao level.

"The Heavenly Dao Realm!"

Zhao Xi let out a long breath.

To transcend the first two stages and enter the Heavenly Dao Realm...

The difficulty involved is even greater than cultivating from a mortal to a Xuanxian realm.

Countless Golden Immortals of the Great Dao, whose lifespans are longer than the history of the cultivation world, have wasted tens of thousands of years, yet they have remained at the first step of the Mind Realm, the realm of seeing all living beings in the Human Path.

Gu Jinlai, to crush Demonic Spirit entirely through the power of one's mind, one must possess a level of understanding that allows one to perceive the sun and moon in the Heavenly Dao...

It's too difficult.

Even though he had absolute confidence in the talent and growth rate of Gu Jinlai, he was still full of trepidation at this moment.

But...

Now that things have come to this, he has no choice but to believe in the wisdom of the Gu Jinlai.

As has been said Gu Jinlai, if we were to truly wage a full-scale war against the Demon Realm now, regardless of victory or defeat, the Immortal Realm would ultimately be the loser.

"I understand. I will do my best to assist you in perfecting the cultivation method of the mind realm."

Zhao Xi said solemnly.

Gu Jinlai nodded. "I'll leave this to you. I'll go to Blue Star to collect more cultivation-related books from that world, hoping they will be helpful to you."

He said this not only to Zhao Xi, but also to Luo Jiuxiao, Tian Qingzi and others.

Everyone nodded repeatedly, not daring to disobey in the slightest.

Next, Gu Jinlai to Chenyu to urge Chao Jiuyin, Zhou Yi, and others to complete the construction of the star gate as soon as possible.

They then returned to the Xuanxian Realm to further cleanse its order.

Having vaguely guessed that Gu Jinlai might be a chosen one of the world born during a time of crisis, he fully understood and even cooperated with the boy's actions of purging the Xuanxian Realm and maintaining its order.

A month later, a Spirit Lord handed over to Gu Jinlai the information about the evil gods that the Demon Realm possessed, as well as the coordinates of the worlds they had infiltrated.

These coordinates clearly include Blue Star.

However, since Chenyu is now in the hands of Gu Jinlai, when it comes to the accurate mapping of Blue Star's coordinates, Chao Jiuyin, Zhou Yi, and the others are even more advanced than those in the Demon Realm.

All he needs to do next is wait for them to stabilize the star gate, ensuring that the star gate can withstand the passage of this powerful life form carrying a void core and having given birth to several Heavenly Dao.

Now that his energy level has increased significantly, the Star Gate also needs to be upgraded. It is estimated that it will take another year or two to ensure that everything is foolproof.

Time flows on.

A year will pass quickly.

Just as Gu Jinlai was cleaning up the evils in various parts of the Xuanxian Realm and waiting for the Star Gate to be completed as soon as possible, Xie Yusheng sent another message for help.

Through the Void Projection Technique, the Gu Jinlai quickly descended upon Xie Yusheng.

Before I could even get a good look at my surroundings, the piercing air raid siren was already blaring all around.

"Air raid? Is war about to break out on Blue Star?"

This is astonishing, Gu Jinlai.

At this moment, Xie Yusheng also sensed the "awakening" of the Gu Jinlai, and excitedly activated his spiritual fluctuations. "Senior Taiyi, you're awake, that's wonderful..."

"What happened? You're still at the Nantianmen project site? Could it be that some force is planning to bomb the Nantianmen project site?"

"It wasn't a bombing, but the oppression it caused was almost as bad as a bombing."

Xie Yusheng said with a wry smile, "It was a fighter jet from the Tianhuang Kingdom flying across borders, even conducting close reconnaissance."

"Tianhuang Kingdom."

This country has been known Gu Jinlai to border the Central Kingdom and has even fought a war with the Yellow Dragon Kingdom.

Later, it even became a subordinate state of the Starry Federation, specifically to counterbalance the Yellow Dragon Kingdom.

Within the Tianhuang Kingdom, the Xingyao Federation has established the world's largest overseas base, equipped with enough fighter jets and warships to launch a war that would annihilate any country outside the top twenty in military power rankings.

"So, they're fighter jets from the Star Glory Federation?"

This Gu Jinlai.

"Yes."

Xie Yusheng nodded, saying with a hint of helplessness, "I knew that building mechs would require a huge amount of manpower and resources, making it difficult to hide, but I didn't expect it to be exposed so quickly. Too many people in the Central Kingdom are dissatisfied with the rule of those high-ranking nobles and are willing to sell out their national interests in exchange for a pass to join the Starshine Federation..."

"The forging of mechs has aroused the vigilance of the Starshine Federation? They're using that as a pretext to force you to hand over the mech-related technology?"

"That's one factor. Another reason they gave was that they used the mech that destroyed the Celestial Observatory as an excuse, claiming it was our act of declaring war on them, and demanding that we not only hand over the mech-related technology, but also the mech itself..."

Xie Yusheng said with some resentment, "Since they know about our mecha construction, they should also know that the pilots are from Blue Star. This is a complete frame-up."

"It's not a frame-up."

Gu Jinlai laughed and said, "Isn't the mecha right in your hands?"

"That's true... but..."

Xie Yusheng wanted to refute it, but ultimately didn't know how.

He could only say, "Ever since the Starshine Federation and more than a dozen surrounding countries joined forces to form the Blue Star Federation, their actions have become increasingly arrogant."

"Want to vent your anger?"

Gu Jinlai chuckled lightly, "There's a saying on Blue Star that when they falsely accuse you of having weapons of mass destruction, you'd better actually have them. Right now, they say that mech is in your hands, and... that mech is indeed in your hands. So what are you worried about? Just take it out and blow up those cross-border fighters."
