The Land Where Gods Fell

There are five Great Demons in total, each with a different appearance and different abilities.

Aside from being hundreds of feet tall, these five Great Demon didn't seem to be creatures of the same race at all.

Five Great Demon paced back and forth around the entrance to the Land Where Gods Fell and the Book of Questions, seemingly on patrol.

"They are guarding the entrance to the Land Where Gods Fell."

Wisdom Immortal said, "It seems the Demon Race and the former Heavenly Gods have a very close relationship."

Seeing one of the Great Demon, which resembled Giant but had countless blood-red eyes covering its body, looking in their direction, Bai Qiuran quickly pulled Li Jinyao and hid in a crevice in the mountain range.

Seeing these monsters, hundreds of feet tall, with heads reaching the sky and terrifyingly immense auras, Li Jinyao's face turned pale. She asked softly, "Sword Ancestor, what are these things?"

These are the Great Demon of the Demon Race.

Bai Qiuran peeked out slightly to observe the movements of the several Great Demons.

"Is that the Great Demon of the Demon Race?"

Li Jinyao murmured, "One of the mortal enemies of the Human Race... a monster that almost caused the destruction of the Ten Lands of Jiuzhou. I had only read about it in books before, but I have witnessed it firsthand today. It is truly terrifying."

After saying that, she patted her face, took a few deep breaths, and managed to suppress the shock and calm herself down. This composure made Bai Qiuran take notice.

"However, this is the first time I've seen five Great Demon gathered together without fighting."

As Bai Qiuran watched one of the Great Demon with a wolf's head walk to the edge of a nearby mountain range, extend its sharp claws to snatch Savage Beasts from the mountain and devour it, he said, "In the past, when the Demon Race invaded, the Great Demon would usually fight each other for territory, sometimes even breaking into direct conflict. In the early years of the Dacang Calendar, Cultivators basically dealt with them by inviting trouble. What force allows these Great Demons to coexist peacefully here?"

As he spoke, he took Wisdom Immortal down, held him up facing the five Great Demons, and asked, "Wisdom Immortal, do you think there's any way to get in?"

Wisdom Immortal glanced at it and then replied, "It seems that stealthily sneaking in is not feasible. That Thousand-Eyed Demon Great Demon the one next to it without eyes have combined abilities. With their eyesight and hearing, even if we hide in Spatial Fault, they will still sense us... Old Bai, if you use ten percent of your strength now, how many Great Demon can you instantly kill?"

"I haven't tried it, but one or two should be no problem."

After thinking for Bai Qiuran replied.

"That's good. Did you see that Great Demon with tentacles all over its head?"

Wisdom Immortal instructed.

Bai Qiuran looked towards the direction of the Great Demon and found that in the farthest place was the Great Demon that Wisdom Immortal had pointed out. Unlike the other Great Demon that were standing and patrolling back and forth, it was sitting on a mountain, with its two long and soft claws resting on its knees, looking as if it were slacking off.

It has only one vertical pupil on its head, but it is covered with soft tentacles, the tips of which are pink, spherical lumps of flesh.

"That's a transmitting antenna. Its Superpower is a kind of extremely fast communication capability. If someone alerts it, it will send a message to attract other Demon Race or Great Demon in the vicinity to come and reinforce it. If you want to force your way in, you must take it down first. Its weak point is in its abdomen."

"Learn."

Bai Qiuran discovered that having Wisdom Immortal had really helped him a lot. These Great Demon possessed incredibly powerful physical regeneration abilities, some even comparable to his own after mastering the Fortune Body Forging Technique.

Even if these Great Demons' bodies are shattered into pieces without being hit in vital areas, they can recover completely within seconds, which is extremely terrifying.

But with the Wisdom Immortal pointing out the key points, it became very easy for Bai Qiuran to kill them instantly.

"Miss Li, please wait here for a moment."

Bai Qiuran turned to Li Jinyao and said.

"Um."

Li Jinyao nodded gently, sat down cross-legged on the spot, and hid herself behind the rock.

Seeing that she was hidden, Bai Qiuran tiptoed around and came to the position closest to the tentacle antenna Great Demon.

Seizing the opportunity when the other Great Demon turned their backs, Bai Qiuran's figure flickered, and in the blink of an eye, she appeared in front of the Great Demon and struck it with a palm.

Within a golden, ring-shaped shockwave, Bai Qiuran's surging True Qi transformed into a golden pillar of light, which crashed into the abdomen of the Great Demon with a thunderous roar, completely shattering its upper and lower body.

With its weakness shattered, the Great Demon's vertical pupils immediately dimmed, its massive upper body crashed to the ground, kicking up a huge cloud of dust, and it lost all life.

The sudden turn of events startled the four Great Demon around them. They roared and attacked Bai Qiuran together. The wolf-headed Great Demon spewed out Astral Wind, the Thousand-Eyed Demon emitted a powerful red demonic light from its eyes, the eyeless Great Demon emitted a terrifying sonic wave from its sunken mouth covered with a layer of skin, and the snake-headed Great Demon spewed out a rain of Poison.

Faced with these terrifying attacks, Bai Qiuran smiled confidently and drew a longsword.

A few seconds later, with a deafening roar like a mountain collapsing and a jade pillar crumbling, several mangled giant bodies fell onto the nearby open field. Bai Qiuran threw away the Iron Sword in his hand, now only the hilt remained, and returned to his original hiding place, where he found Li Jinyao.

"The Sword Ancestor's strength is truly unparalleled throughout history."

The little girl from the Heavenly Demon Sect looked at him with eyes full of admiration and said with a face full of worship.

"Ahem, Miss Li, you flatter me."

Bai Qiuran touched her nose and said.

He could say a lot of shameless and lewd things without batting an eye when facing shameless people or his apprentices and other close people, but when faced with Li Jinyao's sincere praise, Bai Qiuran a little embarrassed to speak.

With Li Jinyao by her side, Bai Qiuran followed Wisdom Immortal's instructions and successfully found the entrance to the Land Where Gods Fell, which was guarded by the Great Demon.

Looking at the small stream before her, and a tiny Wooden Boat moored beside it, tied to a log with hemp rope, Bai Qiuran blinked and asked Wisdom Immortal, "Are you sure this is the entrance to the Land Where Gods Fell?"

"Of course I'm sure, unless the Great Wisdom that Heavenly Dao has given me has gone wrong."

Wisdom Immortal answered confidently.

"Why do I feel so outdated...?"

Looking at the stream in front of him, Bai Qiuran felt a melancholy that was hard to describe.

"Whether it's rustic or not, you'll find out once you get on the boat and row in."

"That's what Wisdom Immortal said."

"All right."

Bai Qiuran led Li Jinyao onto the small boat. After untying the rope, he was about to grab the Oar when Wisdom Immortal beside him shouted, "Wait! This boat needs True Essence to move. Don't touch it, or we might fall into some strange space."

Bai Qiuran glanced at Li Jinyao opposite him, wanting to lash out, but remembering that his hope of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment lay here, he had no choice but to forcibly suppress his anger and hand the Oar to Li Jinyao.

Li Jinyao seemed very happy to be able to help him, cheerfully taking the Oar and rowing the small boat along the stream into the valley.
