Demonic Qi, Ghostly Qi: Calamity Befell Heaven and Earth, and All Living Beings Suffered

Zhu Hanwei thought for a moment, then said with some puzzlement, "The Evil Spirit Ghost Cultivators active right now did indeed come from the Sinful Dao."

"If that's the case, hasn't that fellow's plan already succeeded?"

"But the problem is, while those active Evil Spirit Ghost Cultivators are certainly not weak, their cultivation and strength are basically only comparable to cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Realm!"

"Surely he didn't go to such enormous lengths just for that?"

Su Shi'er frowned, deep in thought.

Beside him, a sharp gleam flashed through Ren Yunzong's eyes. He spoke first. "Perhaps... his plan only succeeded halfway!"

"Whatever sort of place this so-called Unending Realm is, the fact that he schemed so painstakingly to reach it shows how difficult the task must be."

"A spatial seal must be involved. If cracks appeared in that seal, allowing the weak to pass through while powerful Evil Spirit Ghost Cultivators remained trapped, that would make perfect sense."

Listening to Ren Yunzong's analysis, Su Shi'er nodded repeatedly, feeling as though a window had suddenly opened in his mind. "Exactly. Your insight truly is extraordinary, Sect Master, Martial Brother."

"Still, whether the ghost cultivators appearing in the Sinful Dao really came from the Unending Realm, and whether any stronger ones have emerged, are questions we must investigate further before we can know the answers."

"But what about those demons stirring beneath the Demon Sealing Seal? Have they not been active outside?"

As he spoke, Su Shi'er shifted the subject, turning his attention back to Zhu Hanwei.

Zhu Hanwei shook his head decisively. "No! Over these past ten years, apart from recovering from my injuries, I've traveled almost everywhere in Muyun Prefecture. Besides the Evil Spirit Ghost Cultivators, there have only been all sorts of demonic beasts wreaking havoc among mortals."
