It cannot be denied that these guys in the Forbidden Land of Life were once at least at the Great Emperor level, but now they are nothing more than parasites in the fantasy world.

The words of the Holy Lord Yao Guang left the powerful figures in the Forbidden Land of Life speechless.

If it were according to their former temperaments, they would never have been able to tolerate such humiliation from the Holy Lord Yaoguang. They would probably have already attacked her. But now, things are different.

The reason these powerful figures from the forbidden land of life have appeared this time is ultimately for the rumored "method of immortality." This is not something that can be solved by killing one or two people; it requires mobilizing a large amount of manpower and resources to achieve.

However, since most of the powerful beings in the forbidden land of life have been asleep for many years, their remaining influence in the ordinary world is limited. Most cultivators know the temperament of these guys and would never lend a hand. Therefore, they resorted to this desperate measure and made a promise in front of countless living beings.

At this moment, the Holy Lord Yaoguang stood up to refute them, and they naturally could not act rashly and directly attack the Holy Lord Yaoguang in order to show off their power.

Otherwise, taking action would be a minor matter, but losing credibility in the eyes of countless cultivators would be a major issue.

They were still hoping these people would offer them the "method of immortality."

After a long silence, the powerful figure from the forbidden area finally spoke.

"Youngsters, that's not how it works. We were once powerful cultivators in a fantasy world, and we not only did many things for you, but we even protected your predecessors. We were heroes of our time."

Once one of them spoke up, the remaining powerful figures naturally couldn't sit still any longer and chimed in to "exonerate" themselves. "That's true. When the fantasy world needed us before, we did step in to protect it."

"Now that we need a fantasy world, you should naturally contribute to it as well."

"The past is the past. The living are far more important than the dead. You lot would be better off not spouting nonsense."

"You're talking about those unreliable old geezers. I've never done that. To this day, I haven't even triggered a single Dark Chaos."

Like a stone thrown into a still pond, it caused a great stir. No one could have imagined that the words of the Holy Lord Yaoguang would cause the cultivators in the Forbidden Land of Life to clamor for their loyalty.

However, the cultivators in those forbidden areas seemed completely unaware that their actions were actually counterproductive. Not only did they fail to win over the people, but they also made countless cultivators even more resentful of them.

The arrogance these guys exuded would only annoy ordinary cultivators.

However, in the eyes of the cultivators in the forbidden zone of life, they were not wrong at all.

Every word they said was true. Once upon a time, they were indeed powerful figures in the fantasy world, and they even defended the existence of the fantasy world against the invasion of cultivators from forbidden lands.

It's just that things have changed drastically since then, and their views have shifted somewhat.

However, their contributions to the cultivators of the fantasy world should not be forgotten. After all, they were incredibly powerful, and even though they are now barely surviving, they are still far stronger than the ordinary cultivators in the fantasy world.

In the fantasy world, strength reigns supreme. The fact that they are willing to extend an olive branch to these ants is already an immense favor.

Furthermore, if it weren't for the existence of the Great Dao Laws, they wouldn't want to launch the Dark Chaos Battle.

Ultimately, their initiation of the Dark Chaos was driven by a desire to survive, so this action itself was born out of necessity for these powerful individuals.

Moreover, the cultivators in the fantasy world are not to be slaughtered at will. Every time they encounter the chaotic battle of darkness, they will fight back fiercely. Some cultivators even have the mentality of certain death and want to rush up and perish together with them.

Perhaps, in the eyes of the cultivators in these forbidden lands, ordinary cultivators in the fantasy world are no different from ants, and killing an ant would not ignite their pity.

The lives of these ants are as insignificant as a feather; to be devoured by them is even a blessing for them.

The more these cultivators from forbidden lands explained, the more self-righteous their tone became, naturally filling countless ordinary cultivators with righteous indignation.

Unfortunately, just as those cultivators from the forbidden lands said, as ordinary cultivators, their strength was indeed insufficient. Therefore, when they were insulted by those powerful figures, they could only lower their heads in displeasure.

"Pooh!"

Just then, a resounding voice reached the ears of all the ordinary cultivators; it was the Holy Lord Yao Guang speaking again.

The Holy Master Yaoguang's face was as white as snow. The more she listened to these guys spouting nonsense, the more she felt that they were unreasonable.

"I never imagined you'd become so shameless. Yes, just like you said, you were once heroes of a fantasy world, but since you've willingly fallen and chosen to enter this forbidden zone, you should have considered the price you'd have to pay."

"How can the merits and demerits of your instigation of the Dark Chaos be erased by simply wiping them off? Those powerful figures who dedicated themselves to the fantasy world until their deaths deserve our respect. They are a million times greater than you scum. You self-degrading fools are not worthy of saying such things!"

The Holy Lord Yaoguang glared angrily at the several powerful beings from the forbidden lands before her. In her mind, these guys deserved to die!

The claim that they once protected the fantasy world is nothing but an excuse.

The fact that they chose to fall into the forbidden zone of life shows that they are selfish and self-serving individuals.

The more she spoke, the angrier she became. Yao Guang Holy Master clenched her fists tightly, but she did not actually make a move.

Although she was furious, she was not blinded by anger and still retained a sliver of reason. Therefore, the Holy Lord Yaoguang was also aware that the powerful beings from the forbidden lands who had stepped forward were not ordinary cultivators. If they were to go all out, she would be no match for them at all.

Currently, he is only able to barely keep pace with these bastards' forces thanks to the existence of the Tower of Despair and the Five-sided Mirror. If they were to actually fight, he would only be defeated.

"We can't be so discouraged. My fantasy world isn't just home to one powerful figure like myself. There are quite a few others besides me. If we can unite as one, we might not be no match for these guys!" Yao Guang Saint Lord thought to himself.

The words spoken by the Holy Lord Yaoguang just now naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of many cultivators in the forbidden lands of life, but they knew that the overall situation was more important, so they ultimately did not choose to take action.
