Purple-Cyan True Lord
Thinking of this, Chen Nianzhi smiled and said, "If that's the case, then acquiring Void Gemstone is indeed the most urgent matter."
As the two were talking, a streak of light flew in from the sky; it turned out to be a communication jade talisman.
Jiang Linglong took the light and glanced at it, her brow furrowing slightly. She then handed it to Chen Nianzhi, saying, "This is a message from Ji Feixue: many people have died in the Qi Kingdom."
"It was quite tragic."
After reading it, Chen Nianzhi frowned and sighed.
This letter is a battle report from other territories of the Ji Continent. Within the Ji Continent, the Chu Kingdom is not the only one that borders the Demon Race race.
The Ji Kingdom in the southwest of the Chu Kingdom, near Western Spirit Lake, and the Qi Kingdom in the northeast, both bordered the Demon Race to some extent.
In fact, among the three kingdoms, the Chu Kingdom faced the least pressure because Chu Kingdom did not have Fifth-Tier Spirit Vein or Earth Vein.
In comparison, the Chu Kingdom lacks crucial resources such as Fifth-Tier Spirit Vein and Tier-5 Earth Vein, and with the Azuregreen Mountains serving as a buffer, the Chu Kingdom is actually the most dispensable to the Ji Clan.
Even if the Chu Kingdom were to fall, the vast Azuregreen Mountains would serve as a buffer, so the impact on the Ji Clan would not be particularly significant.
In fact, the Ji Kingdom did not occupy a single Spirit Mountain in the Chu Kingdom. The current Chu Kingdom Cultivation World was established two thousand years ago by a Rogue Cultivator Nascent Soul True Lord reached the Nascent Soul stage.
That rogue cultivator's real name was Chu, and he was known as the Purple-Green True Lord. The name of the Chu Kingdom also originated from him.
Back then, Purple-Cyan True Lord was the personal disciple of the previous Clan Master the Ji Clan. He followed the Ji Clan to the Ji Continent, and then wiped out the Demon Beast of the Chu Kingdom in one battle, opened up the Chu Kingdom Cultivation World, and founded the Nascent Soul sect, Purple-Cyan Sword Sect.
Later, Purple-Cyan True Lord passed away during the Abyssal Demon Calamity, leaving behind three Demon-Refining Supreme Treasure: the Vast-Heaven Mirror, the Purple Abyss Furnace, and the Firmament Immortal Sword.
Later, due to unforeseen circumstances, his three disciples split the Purple-Cyan Sword Sect, forming the Azure Sun Sect, the Purple Sun Sect, and the Firmament Sword Sect.
The Azure Sun Sect has now been destroyed, and the Purple Sun Sect's legacy has been inherited by the Purple Abyss Sect. Only the Firmament Sword Sect still retains a portion of the True Disciple lineage of the Purple-Cyan True Lord.
Getting back to the main point, compared to the State of the Chu Kingdom, the Qi Kingdom has a Tier 5 earth elemental vein, and Western Spirit Lake even has two Fifth-Tier Spirit Vein.
These two places are the main targets of this Beast Turmoil. Dozens of Demon King and Golden Core True Person are already fighting in these two countries.
The battle has raged on for so long, with more than ten Golden Core realm level experts already dead, and both sides are on the verge of losing their tempers.
Apart from the Nascent Soul True Lord and the Demon Emperor not yet making a move, the two sides are almost at the threshold of a real battle.
Both the Demon Emperors and True Lord on both sides were already exercising great restraint, because if they made the first move, it would mean breaking the contract prematurely, and they would definitely be affected by the Heart-Demon Blood Oath, and there was even a possibility that one of the Demon Emperors True Lord would perish.
Seeing so many people killed in battle, Chen Nianzhi couldn't help but frown and say, "After all, the Ji Clan was once Dao Lord Holy Land. Can't they suppress Azure-Wave Lake?"
"The Ji Clan..."
Jiang Linglong's eyes flickered slightly, a hint of sadness flashing across them.
She shook her head, but still told Chen Nianzhi about some things, "Actually, the Ji Clan is currently in its most dire period."
"..."
As she recounted her story, Chen Nianzhi's understanding of the Ji Clan became increasingly clear.
It turns out that as early as three thousand years ago, the Ji Clan was one of the few Dao Lord Holy Land in the East Sea, and also one of the most glorious holy lands in the Purple Yin Realm.
The clan has three Dao Lord, and its previous Clan Master even had the potential to become an immortal. In terms of strength, they were almost on par with the Jiang Clan left behind by Emperor Jiang.
Unfortunately, three thousand years ago, Emperor Jiang ascended to immortality and single-handedly plunged into the Demon Abyss with his sword, never to return. The previous Clan Master of the Ji Clan then led the clan's elite forces to investigate the situation.
This group, led by the Jiang Clan and Ji Clan, consisted of dozens of Dao Lord and top Nascent Soul, but none of them returned to the Purple Yin Realm.
Just then, the Abyssal Demon Calamity broke out, and the Ji Immortal Clan lands were destroyed. The only remaining Nascent Primordial Spirit Dao Lord, along with his elite forces, was almost completely wiped out. Only the current Clan Master of the Ji Clan and a portion of the clan members arrived in the Eastern Wilderness.
Compared to the once majestic Ji Immortal Clan, which stood for hundreds of millions of miles in the East Sea, the Ji Clan now occupies less than one percent of its former territory.
Two thousand years ago, the Abyssal Demon Calamity broke out again. The three Nascent Soul True Lord of the Ji Clan sacrificed their Nascent Soul blood to the Pure Yang Supreme Treasure and killed an Outer Realm Demons comparable to Primordial Spirit.
A thousand years ago, the Great Elder of the Ji Immortal Clan, Half-Step Primordial Spirit realm realm, also perished in the Abyssal Demon Calamity.
Three hundred years ago, the Abyssal Demon Calamity struck again, and the Ji Immortal Clan lost seven Nascent Soul True Lord in that battle.
Even the clan's most treasured artifact, the Pure Yang Supreme Treasure Immortal-Refining Furnace, was severely damaged. It can be said that the Ji Clan's strength is less than one-tenth of what it used to be.
The remaining Nascent Soul True Lord number only five or six, and they must also guard against Black Fiend Old Ancestor and Azure-Wave Lake.
If the Ji clan leader does not break through to the Nascent Soul realm, the Ji clan will likely face annihilation in the next millennium if it chooses not to participate in the war.
As a supreme immortal clan that once gave birth to Immortal, the Ji Clan has killed too many Outer-Realm Demon over tens of thousands of years, and has long since formed an irreconcilable hatred with them.
The Outer Realm Demons have always considered them a thorn in their side and would never let them go.
Even if we don't participate in the war, what difference will it make? If the Eastern Sea Cultivation World, which has been fighting with the Devil Cultivator for tens of thousands of years, is completely wiped out, and the most capable and spirited group is all gone, how long can the Eastern Wilderness hold out?
Thinking of this, Chen Nianzhi looked at Jiang Linglong. Although Jiang Linglong had not said it directly, he had already guessed Jiang Linglong background.
He suddenly felt a piercing pain, and a feeling of suffocation welled up in his heart.
He always remembered what Jiang Linglong said when he was honest with her on Heavenly Ruins Mountain that year.
"I am the only one left in the Jiang Clan. From now on, with you by my side, I won't have to walk alone..."
I think it will be great!
It's just me now...
What happened three hundred years ago that caused the Jiang Clan, which once gave birth to Immortal, to cease to exist?
If we calculate it this way, will the Eastern Sea Cultivation World be able to withstand the next Abyssal Demon Calamity? What will happen to the Eastern Wilderness then?
Chen Nianzhi's heart trembled violently, and she felt a great terror surge into her heart. She felt both heartache for Jiang Linglong and a sense of powerlessness.
He remained silent, but his gaze finally hardened, and then he pulled Jiang Linglong into his arms.
"Linglong..."
"Um."
"No matter what happens from now on, I will face it side by side with you!"
"..."
Chen Nianzhi mobilized 5,000 cultivators from his Lineage to begin clearing out the low-level Demon Beast in Heavenly Ruins Lake.
The low-level Demon Beast in this spirit lake are almost countless; it would take at least several decades to kill them all.
However, with the help of Chen Nianzhi and several Lineage at the Purple Mansion level, it took them several months to finally kill all the Foundation Establishment Demon Beast in the lake.
The remaining low-level Demon Beast don't need to be rushed; they can be dealt with by the Lineage cultivators later.
From now on, the properties of Heavenly Ruins Lake will be jointly dao companion by Jiang Linglong and Chen Nianzhi, with the Lineage and cultivators of Heavenly Ruins Mountain responsible for operating the Spirit Mountain. They will only need to pay a salary.
