Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
"Junior Brother Lu, please don't underestimate yourself. The Human Emperor Great Dao is one of accumulating power and merit, concerning the well-being of countless lives and the rise and fall of your clan. The depth of your foundation and the breadth of your influence Non-Self can achieve by simply focusing on our own path. Once the momentum is established, it will be like a river rushing to the sea, unstoppable."
Li Taiqing smiled.
He naturally knew that Lu Fan being modest.
No one knows Lu Fan's true abilities, but just in terms of his apparent cultivation level, he is already on par with Jiang Hao and Su Ming.
"That's right, Senior Brother Lu, you are the Human Emperor, ruling over the Human Race. When you grow up, will our Master have to listen to you?"
Lin Potian joked.
Upon hearing this, Lu Fan's expression changed, and he looked around like a thief, quickly covering Lin Potian's mouth:
"What are you saying! You idiot, have I ever offended you, your senior brother?"
Lu Fan knew Lin Potian was joking, but he was still a little anxious:
"How can you say such things? Master Divine Ability all-powerful; he can know the past and future with a single thought. If he hears you say this, he'll think that I, Lu Fan, have become arrogant and ignorant after achieving some success, and that I want to betray my master and ancestors! In that case, with a single thought from Master, I won't even have become the Human Emperor before I'm expelled from the sect!"
His exaggerated reaction and words, coupled with his nervous expression as if he were truly afraid of being overheard by Han Xuanji, immediately made the others unable to hold back.
They knew Lu Fan was acting on purpose, but for some reason... it didn't seem like acting.
Li Taiqing shook his head and chuckled, saying gently:
" Potian Brother Potian is outspoken, Junior Brother Lu, there's no need to be so nervous. Our Master's realm is transcendent; how could he take such a joke to heart? Besides, we are brothers, and our Master would be pleased to see this."
Su Ming glanced at Lin Potian, who was still grinning mischievously with his mouth covered, then looked at Lu Fan, who looked like he was facing a formidable enemy, and laughed:
"You've voiced Junior Brother Lu's deepest delusion; how could he not be anxious?"
His tone was clearly teasing, which immediately brightened the atmosphere.
Even the usually aloof and taciturn Nangong Wenjian was suppressing a laugh, and the long sword he was holding trembled slightly, emitting a faint, clear sound, as if it too was laughing silently.
Finally, Jiang Hao steered the conversation toward the main topic:
"Our master ordered us to come during this calamity of the Devil Race, and also sent Senior Xiao Hong along."
"Is Senior Xiao Hong here too?"
Lu Fan's spirits lifted.
With a powerful figure like Xiao Hong in charge, he felt much more at ease.
"Furthermore, Master said that if the Great Heavenly Devil makes a move, he will not stand idly by."
"Tsk tsk, maybe we'll get to see Master take action again!"
Lu Fan was extremely excited.
These words evoked a sense of nostalgia among the crowd.
Every move Han Xuanji made was Potian, capable of turning clouds into rain with a flick of his wrist.
However, there aren't many people left who can get Han Xuanji to take action.
Perhaps someone like the Great Heavenly Devil could provoke him to take action.
"In any case, this is the time for us fellow disciples to make a name for ourselves and achieve great things!"
"That's right, that's right, it's time to let everyone know how powerful my Myriad Phenomena lineage is!"
After years of arduous training, it would be a lie to say that you don't have any desire to emerge and make a name for yourself.
Time passed slowly.
With the addition of Su Ming, Jiang Hao, and other Daluo Golden Immortal, the morale of the Spirit Void Immortal Domain Allied Forces soared, and their combat strength underwent a qualitative leap.
The counterattack quickly commenced.
Lu Fan, stationed at the central command, strategized and accurately identified the gaps and weaknesses in the Devil Race's vanguard army's movements. Furthermore, he shrouded his own side in the Human Emperor Fortune, making it difficult for others to predict his fate.
Meanwhile, the six Daluo Golden Immortal— Jiang Hao, Nangong Wenjian, Li Taiqing, Han You, Lin Potian, Su Ming— along with the other Daluo Ancestors, launched seven surprise attacks in succession, and were undefeated!
They slew two Devil Race Daluo -level Demon Kings, more than twenty Taiyi Golden Immortal- level Demon Generals, and countless Golden Immortal- level Devil Race Leaders!
The Devil Race's unstoppable offensive in the Spirit Void Immortal Domain was abruptly halted!
The casualties on the Spirit Void Immortal Domain side were far less than expected, making it a resounding victory!
The good news reached Divine Mechanism City and even spread to other Immortal Domain such as Beidou, astonishing the entire world!
However, such a brilliant victory naturally enraged the Devil Race race's high command.
Within the magnificent, eerie demonic palace, several terrifying figures shrouded in Heavenly Devil flames roared.
"Useless! All of you are useless! A mere Spirit Void Immortal Domain has caused our race such heavy losses! Our vanguard legion has been almost annihilated!"
A powerful Devil Race at the Hunyuan level roared, the sound waves shaking the Demon Palace.
"Those Human Race Daluo are no ordinary beings; each one is not a common Daluo Golden Immortal, but rather a top expert among their respective realms."
Another powerful Devil Race, shrouded in black mist with only two crimson eyes visible, spoke in a cold voice.
"We can't let them continue like this! Otherwise, we'll lose face and become a laughingstock of the entire Devil Race!"
It should be noted that the Devil Race did not only launch attacks on the Spirit Void Immortal Domain, but also launched fierce attacks on other bordering territories, with remarkable results.
Why did things get deadlocked on their end?
Some even blamed the Devil Master for this misfortune.
Suddenly someone suggested:
"Let's rout Divine Mechanism City with overwhelming force, annihilate those Human Race, and shock the entire world!"
His tone was menacing; he clearly couldn't take it anymore.
After these words were spoken, the Demon Palace fell silent for a moment.
Hunyuan Realm expert is already a strategic-level existence and will not easily participate in the early stages of a realm war, so as not to trigger a chain reaction from the opposing experts of the same level, or even cause a higher-level confrontation to break out prematurely.
However, the setbacks in the Lingxu Spirit Void Immortal Domain have indeed made some high-ranking Devil Race restless.
"To wipe out Divine Mechanism City?"
The Devil Master's voice was devoid of emotion.
Do you know who is in charge of the Spirit Void Immortal Domain?
" Nine Netherworlds... Devouring Phoenix."
These words seemed to possess some kind of magic, instantly silencing the Devil Race who had just been seething with killing intent and clamoring to attack.
Nine Nether Dao-Devouring Phoenix, Primordial Devil God!
It once nearly devoured the cycle of reincarnation in the Immortal Realm; its ferocity has shaken the ages!
Even though countless years have passed and many people have speculated that the other party has fallen from his realm, he is still an extremely dangerous and terrifying existence that should not be provoked!
"Let's think about this carefully..."
"If all else fails, please, Great Heavenly Devil Lord, make a move..."
"To invite this esteemed person so early would make us appear incompetent."
The demons talked amongst themselves, but couldn't come to any conclusions.
The Devil Master sighed inwardly, not in a hurry to launch a full-scale attack.
The Devil Race still hold the advantage. They are no match for the demons in a one-on-one fight, but they still have a chance of winning under siege. Moreover, with a being like the Great Heavenly Devil in charge, they can take things slowly and surely. Sooner or later, victory will be theirs; it's just a matter of time.
He glanced at the Fourth Heavenly Devil, who remained as calm and collected as before, without uttering any threats or demands to attack.
On the other side, Han Xuanji was deducing Divine Ability, and several vague directions gradually began to take shape in his mind.
