The Hongyuan Continent Rises

"Master Uncle's divine might Peerless; this disciple bows in reverence."

Academy Head Meng quickly and respectfully flattered Chu Feng.

Chu Feng asked with a smile, "Your surname is Meng, could you perhaps be a grandson of Master?"

"Reporting to Uncle-Master, my second grandfather is indeed your master."

Academy Head Meng smiled and tried to curry favor with Chu Feng. Originally, the position of dean was not meant for him, a newly promoted Saint, but as soon as his second grandfather spoke up, those old guys compromised.

The biggest reason was that his uncle was already Divine King with twelve Divine Spark, and even the Divine King Zhen avoided him.

"I see."

Chu Feng said, "Prepare some wine and food for me. Let's drink and talk while we're at it."

"Okay!"

Academy Head Meng immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare wine and dishes, and even took out his treasured top-grade holy wine, carefully pouring it for his martial uncle.

Seeing that the kid was so cooperative, Chu Feng casually tossed him a Dao Fruit Pill.

This Dao Fruit Pill wasn't top-grade; it was the reward he received for refining pills for others back when he was at the Holy Institute. It wasn't that his pill-refining skills were lacking, but rather that the old guys couldn't refine Supreme-Grade Dao Fruit Pill with the materials they brought out.

"Thank you, Uncle-Master."

Academy Head Meng could sense the rich Dao Resonance contained within that Dao Fruit Pill, and he figured that consuming just one pill would be equivalent to hundreds of years of his own cultivation.

After a few rounds of drinks, Chu Feng began to inquire about everyone's situation.

"Little Changyu, tell your martial uncle where Xiuyuan and the others went."

Academy Head Meng took a sip of wine and said, "Reporting to Uncle-Master, all the senior brothers have gone to the Hongyuan Continent. It is said that more than sixty years ago, a Demon Race suddenly rose up and competed with our Dao-Seeking Sect for hegemony in the Central Continent. Originally, Senior Brothers Xiao Chen and Cao Youqian had already become Divine King and were preparing to leave, but they found that the Demon Race Divine King in charge, so they stayed in the Dao-Seeking Sect."

We don't know the current situation of the war on the Hongyuan Continent. A year ago, I received news that the Dao-Seeking Sect and the Myriad Demon Ancestor were in a stalemate, and there had been no further major battles.

"The rise of the Demon Race race."

Chu Feng's lips curled up slightly as he murmured, "This plot is familiar, but I wonder if it's the rise of the local Demon Race or the support of the local Demon Race Demon Race from outside."

When the Great Sage divided the spoils of war back then, they only said that the Dao-Seeking Academy would have exclusive control of the Hongyuan Continent, but they did not guarantee that forces from other continents would not enter the Hongyuan Continent.

If a newly emerging continent could be discovered by the Divine King of the Great Sage, it would naturally be discovered by the Divine King of other continents.

I wonder what's going on with Xiao Chen and the others on the Hongyuan Continent. It seems we'll have to set off for the Hongyuan Continent tomorrow.

He wasn't worried about Xiao Chen and the others being defeated by the Demon Race. After all, Xiao Chen was a potential future Sword Emperor, and he also had a treasure bestowed upon him by himself. As long as the Divine Emperor didn't intervene, no one could defeat him.

On the Hongyuan Continent, within the Dao-Seeking Sect, the shadow of a great war loomed over the sect.

The sixty-year war reshuffled the power structure of the Central Continent. The territory occupied by the Dao-Seeking Sect was basically the gathering place of the Human Race, while the Demon Race occupied the other half.

Meanwhile, the three ancient races watched from the sidelines on three overseas continents as the tigers fought.

Even today, the three overseas races have not forgotten their defeat back then. They still believe that without the Dao-Seeking Sect, their three races could have occupied the entire Hongyuan Continent.

The Dao-Seeking Sect didn't care about this. As long as the three overseas races didn't submit to the forces of the Ten Thousand Demons, they were willing to give them space to live.

If the three overseas races were to submit to the forces of the myriad demons, then the only thing awaiting them would be retribution.

Inside the temple, Ji Jiuwu sat in the main seat, with Xiao Chen and Cao Youqian standing on either side, and the rest of the group standing on either side.

"Fellow disciples, we can now confirm that forces from other continents have infiltrated the Demon Race, including several Divine King. We now have two paths: one is to fight them to the death, and the other is to negotiate peace, stabilize them, and wait for an opportunity to fight again. I wonder what your thoughts are?"

Ji Jiuwu was someone who had personally witnessed the war between the three races. He naturally knew that if his two senior brothers were to fight the Divine King of the Myriad Demons Force in a way that would cause the Central Continent to collapse, it would only shatter the Central Continent and scatter the fortune that their Dao-Seeking Sect had painstakingly gathered. This was something he did not want to see.

Cao Youqian smiled and said, "Junior Brother Jiuwu, I know your concerns, but Senior Brother and I are not the kind of Divine King who can only act on the Hongyuan Continent. If necessary, we can arrange a battle in the void with the Divine King of the Ten Thousand Demons Force. I think they would not want to see a shattered Central Continent."

Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuwu's eyes lit up. He was now only one step away from reaching 999 Dao Resonance. If it weren't for the years of war that had kept him from cultivating, he would have already become a Divine King.

If the two senior brothers can defeat the Divine King of the Myriad Demons in the void and temporarily curb the expansion of the Myriad Demons, their chances of a counterattack will be even greater once they become Divine King themselves.

He immediately stood up and said, "I implore Senior Brother Xiao and Senior Brother Cao to take action and suppress the Divine King's forces of ten thousand demons."

Cao Youqian and Xiao Chen exchanged a glance, smiled, and said, "No problem."

The two of them were now Divine King with two Divine Spark each, and they were not afraid of any opponent. Even if they faced Divine King with more Divine Spark, they could suppress him with the Sword Jade bestowed upon them by their master.

"Alright, then I'll send someone to deliver the challenge tomorrow."

Ji Jiuwu said excitedly.

Cao Youqian waved his hand and said, "There's no need for such trouble. I'll personally challenge them to a duel tomorrow. Aren't those few Divine King from the Myriad Demons Force eager to test their skills against me?"

Ji Jiuwu nodded. "Then let's do as Senior Brother Cao says."

The next day.

Cao Youqian appeared in the sky above the territory of the Ten Thousand Demons, and with just a slight release of the pressure of the Divine King Realm, he terrified the countless Demon Race below.

Soon, a loud voice rang out from within the Ten Thousand Demons faction. "Fellow Daoist, you are provoking me."

Don't misunderstand.

Cao Youqian smiled and said, "I've come today to issue a challenge."

"Oh."

Accompanied by a questioning voice, a Demon Race Divine King with a lion's head, a human body, and a pair of wings appeared before Cao Youqian, stepping through the air. He looked at Cao Youqian and asked, "What, Dao-Seeking Sect Seeking Sect given up and wants to duel with me?"

"Of course not. I just feel that continuing to fight like this is just a waste of time. Why don't we have a battle in the void? The winner will continue to rule this continent, and the loser will choose to leave. I just don't know if you dare to fight." Cao Youqian asked with a smile.

"Snort!"

The Demon Race Divine King coldly snorted and said, "Why should I fight you to Qiankun the world?"

Cao Youqian shrugged and said, "Does Your Excellency want a shattered Hongyuan Continent instead of a relatively complete one? If we part ways, no one will get the continent's fortune."

Upon hearing this, the Demon Race Divine King hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and agreed, "Very well, it will be as you say. Seven days from now, we will fight in the void to determine the victor!"

It's a deal!

It's a deal!

After Cao Youqian finished speaking, he turned and left.

The Lion-Headed Divine King watched Cao Youqian's departing figure with a contemptuous smile on his face, then turned and returned to his camp.

As soon as he landed, three Demon Race Divine King surrounded him. One of them, a two-headed tiger Divine King, said, "Mad Lion, why did you agree to him?"

The Mad Lion Divine King laughed and said, "Twin Divine King, if I don't agree, do you expect me to let him hide forever? What I meant earlier was that we should fight each other to determine a winner, not a one-on-one duel."

Upon hearing this, the other two Divine King standing nearby immediately gave the Mad Lion Divine King a thumbs-up.

"Mad Lion never expected that you, Fox Demon, would become so sharp after sleeping so much."

"Nine-Headed Bird, if you can't speak properly, then get out of here. What do you mean I slept with too many fox demons? My brain works perfectly fine." The Mad Lion Divine King said unhappily.

The other Golden Ape Divine King, "Since we're going to besiege the Human Race Divine King, let's first decide how to fight and how to get the spoils."
