They want to seize control of the Four Saints Spell!
White Plain saw the Black Tortoise Spell and recalled what Kagura had told her.
This was before she qualified to proceed to the final stage, Kagura told her about the mission she was brought here for.
She was originally just one of the backup plans, and before that, she wasn't even considered a backup. It was only because of her good qualities and the heavy losses suffered by the original personnel that she decided to cultivate a new talent.
Whether she can seize the opportunity depends on her performance.
Although the process wasn't perfect, and he almost died at the hands of the Ancient Demon on the Chen Household boy's body, he still managed to obtain the Black Tortoise Mark and fulfill his previous request.
The rules of Divine Martial only consider the result, not the process. Since the other party has completed the task, they are qualified to participate in part of the Divine Martial plan.
So, before the competition, Kagura told her some of the truth!
The Ancient Demon Clan's plan was to seize the Four Saints Spell, or rather, to seize the Four Saints Spirits.
The Heavenly Stems and Earthly Fiends Spirits were once incredibly powerful, so powerful that even the Samsara of reincarnation in this world could not shake them. Even after they died, their will still lingered between heaven and earth, constantly searching for successors to regenerate their bloodline.
Theoretically speaking, the Ancient Demon have no chance of obtaining this inheritance.
But all the intelligence suggests that the Ancient Demon were already secretly planning all of this. The magical years of the Warlock Dynasty allowed them to explore new technologies, which might allow them to take over the Giant Spirit that roam the world.
Of course, all of this is just speculation, but it's highly likely.
There are two reasons!
First: The Ancient Demon obtained the memories of the creator, Pu Yunchuan, who is the creator of the entire Demon World. If there is anyone in this world who can change the fundamental nature of this world, then that guy might be one of them!
Second: The Ancient Demon ' backup plan. The Ancient Demon ' power lies in parasitism, but only by parasitizing sufficiently powerful creatures can they be forced to their limits. If their plan is merely to prematurely end their own guild and its members, then what will they do when faced with the subsequent descent of the Outer Heaven Demon Statue?
The Divine Martial Guild participated in the annihilation of the Ancient Demon and knew very well that the Ancient Demon feared the Outer Heaven Demon Statue; it was their nemesis. Why did each Ancient Demon Dynasty collapse after its rise?
Some accounts say that the Ancient Demon collapsed internally, which is really just self-aggrandizement.
Yes, the Ancient Demon do have a fatal flaw: they are prone to losing themselves and harming their own kind.
However, for a large, orderly power, such a flaw is not a concern at all. After all, once a dynasty is established, it means that the power has already taken shape. For such a dynasty to collapse, it would require widespread loss of control, which is inherently unreasonable.
Unfortunately, there is a being within the Outer Heaven Demon Statue that can bewitch people on a large scale.
These things are adept at creating Heart Demon, and with the Ancient Demon ' fragile willpower, they are utterly powerless against such Heart Demon.
Therefore, each time Ancient Demon Dynasty rises, it can only prosper until the demon golem descends. Once the golem descends, these parasites will quickly wither away, hiding in dark corners to eke out a living.
To fight the Outer Heaven Demon Statue, one cannot rely on oneself; but if relying on oneself is insufficient, what can one rely on?
The useful forces in this world are basically monopolized by guilds. The Ancient Demon had no hope before, and now they have even less hope.
The only point of exploitation is the obsession of those once powerful beings in this world.
The Divine Martial Guild had long been eyeing this power, but they lacked the means to acquire it. Now that the Ancient Demon had actually developed it, the Divine Martial Guild was determined to obtain it!
"Your abilities seem different than before."
Murong Ziyi was hidden in the ice. Black Tortoise belongs to water, and corresponds to Kan in the Bagua. Its icy yin cold can directly resist the most yang fire in the world, Southern Brightness Li Fire. Black Tortoise Palace was a space prepared in advance, containing extremely high quality water vapor. With the operation of Black Tortoise Spell, the entire space was instantly filled with icy cold air.
Murong Ziyi, who can control this level of technique, is almost equivalent to Dragon King Level in terms of power!
Logically speaking, the moment the Black Tortoise Spell was activated, White Plain should have been reduced to an ice shard.
Judging from her previous display of power, she shouldn't have been able to withstand this chill, but that wasn't the case. In the icy wind, White Plain moved with ghostly speed, even faster than before. Murong Ziyi, who controlled the water element of the entire space, couldn't grasp her position for a moment.
"Knowing they're here to deal with you, how could you not be prepared at all?" White Plain replied calmly.
Despite her seemingly indifferent expression, she was actually extremely tense inside.
She could clearly sense the terrifying chill in the palace. If it were her a day ago, she would have been an ice sculpture in an instant. If it weren't for the Reincarnation Mark that Kagura had imprinted on her, she probably wouldn't even have had the chance to hide.
But she knew that her current state wouldn't last long.
"Prepare?"
Murong Ziyi frowned. What kind of preparation could make someone stronger overnight?
While their background is impressive, isn't this a bit too outrageous? Have those beings stopped following the rules altogether?
Meanwhile, Azure Dragon Palace, Zhang Xiaoyun and the Old Celestial Master, who were also watching the battle, became slightly curious.
"That's interesting," Zhang Xiaoyun laughed. "People can't become stronger out of thin air. That female Heavenly Python's strength had already hit rock bottom in the last level, reaching the level of a low-grade Ghost General general. For her age, she is indeed exceptionally talented, a rarity even within the entire Heavenly Python clan. But even with exceptional talent, she shouldn't have become so powerful overnight."
The old celestial master didn't speak, but instead looked at Ziyue beside him. "What do you think, Your Highness?"
Ziyue frowned slightly upon hearing this, then said, " Ziyi, relying on the Black Tortoise Spell, has already reached the King Level power within the Black Tortoise Palace. Even if Zhang Zhiyun were on the other side, he would most likely be no match for her. With White Plain's abilities, no matter how much she comprehends, it's impossible for her to break through so much in a single day. She can only be using a trick. If I'm not mistaken, the power she's using might also be the power of Black Tortoise."
"Hahahaha!" The old Celestial Master burst into laughter. "Your Highness is indeed wise!"
"Oh? Old man, you already know the reason?" Zhang Xiaoyun looked at the other person. "What exactly happened?"
" The Black Tortoise Mark!!" The old Celestial Master didn't keep anyone in suspense and directly revealed the result.
" The Black Tortoise Mark?"
Ziyue was taken aback, clearly not knowing what it was, but Zhang Xiaoyun seemed to have heard of it before, nodding. "I see."
The old celestial master explained to Ziyue, " The Four Great Guilds have done a lot of research on the Four Saints Spell in the past, so countless Four Saints Sorcerer have been used for experiments. Every generation of Black Tortoise Sorcerer who were captured by those people suffered a miserable fate. The Divine Martial Guild is skilled in the Soul Imprint Technique, so naturally they wouldn't let go of such excellent materials. It's quite normal for them to create a Black Tortoise Imprint for future research."
"This Black Tortoise Mark is a soul ring formed by killing countless Black Tortoise Sorcerer. For a short time, it can also grant White Plain the power of Black Tortoise Sorcerer!"
"Oh?"
Ziyue frowned. "She specifically brought the Black Tortoise Mark and even went out of her way to collect Black Tortoise Mark to enter the Black Tortoise Palace. So the Divine Martial Guild has been eyeing Murong Ziyi from the very beginning, right?"
"That makes sense." The old celestial master grinned. "In our memories, that Kagura was incredibly cunning. Countless ancient demons died at her hands. I knew she must have sensed our presence when she came in person!"
"You knew she noticed us, yet you still dared to let her in?" Moon Eye, "Are you truly not afraid of her?"
"Why be afraid?" The old master sneered, a hint of hatred in his voice. "These outsiders only know some information we don't. Don't think too highly of them. With equal intelligence, they are nothing!"
