After the disciples left, the meditation room Return to Stillness.
The lamp burned eternally, its light swirling and reflecting on Han Xuanji's calm and composed face.
Now that the great calamity has begun, he either has to learn from his simulated self, abandon everything, and go to the Chaos to find a safe place to cultivate.
They either stay and face the Devil Race.
In the future, the Devil Race did not expend much effort to conquer the Spirit Void Immortal Domain.
After all, the Devil Race race has an incredibly deep foundation, with countless powerful individuals, including many Devil Race at the Daluo Golden Immortal level, and quite a few powerful Devil Race at the Hunyuan level.
Han Xuanji no longer considered figures like the Great Heavenly Devil.
But the Devil Ancestor... he didn't think he could defeat his opponent.
In the Sea of Great Dao Origins, the Devil Ancestor attempted to bewitch him, making him a subordinate of his demonic path.
He was not infected.
But this is probably not the first time the Devil Ancestor has done this; many powerful figures throughout history have likely fallen victim to it.
Thinking of this, Han Xuanji calmed down.
"I still can't be lazy; I must continue my cultivation..."
He's only just reached the Hunyuan Wuji Realm, how can he let his guard down?
Ask the Heavenly Emperor and the Devil Ancestor, who among them is not in the Hunyuan Wuji? Moreover, they are mostly among the top figures in the Hunyuan Wuji Realm.
Moreover, Han Xuanji also recalled what he saw in the Sea of Great Dao Origins when he broke through.
The Dao seals that rise and fall are countless.
These people, each one of them, are far more senior than him.
Of course, these processes... these things cannot be accomplished overnight.
However, in the struggle for supremacy, can the depth of understanding be judged solely by the passage of time?
"I must possess... a divine Divine Ability truly belongs exclusively to my ' Mystic Heaven Great Dao ' for both offense and defense."
Han Xuanji's gaze hardened.
The Hunyuan Wuji has long transcended the scope of ordinary Divine Ability powers and techniques; it is a collision of the essence of the Great Dao and a struggle for the authority of rules.
Without Divine Ability and methods that align with one's own Dao and are powerful enough, merely possessing realm and strength is like a child wielding a weapon; one is easily controlled by others, and even one's weaknesses can be exploited by others through skillful means.
Han Xuanji's thoughts began to race, his consciousness sinking into the vast and boundless origin of his own "Mysterious Mystic Heaven Great Dao," carefully sorting out and deducing the essence of the Great Dao.
His profound True Intention lies in "originating from Chaos, mysterious beyond mystery, encompassing all paths." Although his intention is lofty, it does not mean that he is invincible.
So, based on this core, how can one derive a unique and powerful divine Divine Ability that is sufficient to hold its own in the competition of the Wuji Realm, or even gives it a unique advantage?
Han Xuanji fell into thought.
On the other side.
The Spirit Void Immortal Domain, the Northern Border Devil-Suppressing Pass.
This once formidable pass, built with the blood and sweat of countless Human Race cultivators, has now fallen completely.
The sky was completely obscured by murky demonic clouds, obscuring the sun and moon. Only crimson lightning occasionally tore through the darkness, illuminating a scene of carnage on the earth.
At this moment, surging demonic energy permeated every inch of land and air within the pass.
The largest immortal residence within the pass has now been transformed into a temporary command center for the Devil Race.
A sinister demonic aura shrouded the once auspicious place, and in the center of the hall, dozens of figures exuding powerful demonic might sat in a circle.
The Devil Master's figure was shrouded in a wide black robe, the shadow beneath his hood deepening.
He crossed his pale hands over his chest, listening to the excited reports from several Devil Race vanguard commanders.
"... Those beings from the Immortal Domain are utterly pathetic! Our unit's single charge pierced through three of their outer protective barriers!"
"Hahaha, the flesh and soul of cultivators are indeed the finest tonic! Especially for those cultivators who have achieved success, their resentment and fear are particularly sweet!"
"At this rate, it won't be long before the entire Spirit Void Immortal Domain is bathed in the glory of the Devil Ancestor! Our clan's territory will expand once again!"
The unrestrained laughter of the Devil Race warriors echoed in the hall, filled with the pleasure of conquest and destruction.
That's enough.
A calm voice rang out, abruptly silencing all the laughter.
The Devil Master raised his head, his icy gaze sweeping over the demons.
"Has a temporary victory made you complacent? Don't forget, what we've conquered is merely a corner of the Spirit Void Immortal Domain. The real tough nut to crack— the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace —still stands there intact."
Upon hearing the mention of the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace, the excitement of the Devil Race experts subsided slightly, but they remained indifferent, even somewhat angry.
" Devil Master, you're overthinking it. What is the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace? Even a supreme power like the Heavenly Court was destroyed by our clan. This weak force can be easily destroyed by sending just a few Great Daluo."
"Exactly, just a newly emerging power with shallow roots. How long can it withstand our clan's attacks? I bet we'll be the first to breach a Immortal Domain."
The Devil Master sighed, seemingly unwilling to continue the discussion with this group.
How could he not know that, according to the publicly available intelligence, the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace was utterly vulnerable, with only three Daluo Golden Immortal in charge? Let alone the Great Heavenly Devil making a move, the Devil Race could easily raze it to the ground with just a single Hunyuan expert.
But the problem is, the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace is not that simple.
He suspected that this place had become a place of impending doom, and that powerful beings from the Immortal Domain had already laid many traps here, preparing a snare for them to fall into.
The Devil Master suddenly remembered the abilities of the Fourth Heavenly Devil and slowly turned to the other end of the long table.
" The Fourth Heavenly Devil ascend."
The Devil Master's voice carried a barely perceptible hint of inquiry.
"Your Excellency, have you sensed... whether there are any hidden Hunyuan Realm among the Human Race, or any signs that they might intervene in this area?"
The air in the hall seemed to freeze for a moment.
"I didn't sense it."
The Fourth Heavenly Devil ' answer was straightforward; they stated their judgment almost without hesitation.
He genuinely did not sense this sign and was not lying.
Upon hearing this, the Devil Master breathed a sigh of relief, but a vague sense of unease lingered in his heart.
It went too smoothly, so smoothly that he couldn't even imagine it.
The Devil Master remained silent for a moment, his heart trembling slightly before finally returning to calm.
"Your Excellencies are overthinking things. With all of you here, there is absolutely nothing to worry about."
He stopped asking questions and began to plan the next attack route, but a lingering doubt quietly began to grow in his mind.
I have a feeling that everything that follows is fraught with unpredictable variables.
The Devil Master didn't see that the Fourth Heavenly Devil were trembling slightly, as if they were afraid of something. Even if they did know, they probably wouldn't be able to understand what kind of being could make the Fourth Heavenly Devil, who were close to the Hunyuan Taiji Realm, feel fear.
Meanwhile, behind Devil-Suppressing Pass, another line of defense stood: Divine Mechanism City.
This city is one of the most magnificent cities in the Spirit Void Immortal Domain, named after Jiang Shenji, the ancestor of the Jiang Household.
The city was fortified and surrounded by numerous formations, and it had now become a place where the remaining forces of the Spirit Void Immortal Domain and the anti-demon reinforcements converged.
Divine Stratagem Hall, the atmosphere was solemn and dignified.
The hall was packed with people, almost all the high-level combat forces that the Spirit Void Immortal Domain could currently muster.
At the head of the table, in the main seat, are three people.
On the left is the Stabilizing Needle of the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace, the Ancestor Divine Radiance with a profound aura and a withered face, possessing the cultivation of Seventh-Turn Daluo Golden Immortal.
On the right is the pillar of the Jiang Household, an old man with a majestic face wearing a purple-gold jade robe—the patriarch of the Jiang Household, Jiang Xuangang. He is also a Seventh-Turn Daluo Golden Immortal, proficient in weapon crafting and formations, and is the strongest person in the Jiang Household on the surface.
And in the middle, there was none other than the Human Emperor, Lu Fan, who had come to provide support!
