Chapter 511: Chapter 288: The Demon Sect Sets the Plan (2)
Based on the aggregation of nurous pieces of intelligence, and the testimony from the injured Demon Venerable, the identity of the enemy who caused the fall of Ancestor Demon Xueming has surfaced.
"It’s him again! Damn it! Utterly relentless!" Ancestor Wutian Demon’s angry roar echoed in the grand hall, as furious as an enraged wild beast, he slamd his palm on the stone table before him.
With a ’bang’ sound, under the palm strike, the solid stone table instantly shattered into powder, scattering dust all over the ground.
Ancestor Wanji Demon held the intelligence Jade Scroll, repeatedly studying it, his expression shifting from astonishnt to disbelief, and finally to silence.
"Tier Six Spirit Ship, Five Elents Beast Taming, Sword Immortal Li, Mid-Stage Nascent Soul... Xueming died at his hands? How is this possible!" Ancestor Wanji Demon murmured, unable to believe this intelligence.
The cultivation of Mid-Stage Nascent Soul, only a hundred years of cultivation, could actually defeat Ancestor Demon Xueming, and render Ancestor Yin Jiong Demon’s life and death unknown! This is simply overturning the common knowledge of the Cultivation Realm!
"Xueming, Yin Jiong, were they not possibly deceived and lured by this person, falling into the ambush of Profound Celestial Sword Sect and Taiyi Sect?" Ancestor Wanji Demon asked, still in disbelief, looking at Ancestor Wutian Demon.
"It’s possible, this child, has close ties with Qingwei of Spirit Taming Sect, Tianshang of the Kun Family, and Kun Ling. These two might have coveted the treasures on him and walked right into a trap." Ancestor Wutian Demon nodded, also unable to believe that Ancestor Demon Xueming and Ancestor Yin Jiong Demon would fall at his hands.
This scenario is indeed possible!
This child is practically the nesis of their Nine Demons Sect. According to detailed intelligence, dozens of Demon Venerables have perished because of him, countless Demon Monarchs as well, and now two Demon Ancestors have fallen due to him!
"This child must be eliminated, or there will be endless trouble!"
Ancestor Wanji Demon took another look at the intelligence Jade Scroll and said with utmost certainty.
A fierce killing intent flashed across Ancestor Wutian Demon’s blood-red eyes. Previously, he had specially designed a trap for Li Mu using the Purple lody Celestial Fire, with extensive preparations and using many personnel, just to completely eradicate this grave threat.
Who knew! This kid was so evasive and never showed his face.
What infuriated Ancestor Wutian Demon even more was that, for so reason, the plan to ambush Li Mu seed to have leaked. The Profound Celestial Sword Array, the combined forces of Taiyi Sect, descended suddenly, catching Ancestor Wutian Demon off guard and forcing him into a major battle, during which he lost many subordinates.
Now, even Xueming and Yin Jiong have fallen to this kid’s hands.
Ancestor Wutian Demon couldn’t help but be overwheld with a strong sense of crisis; this kid was almost becoming his Heart Demon.
Ancestor Wutian Demon and Ancestor Wanji Demon sat in silence, the grand hall falling into stillness. They both understood that this ’Sword Immortal Li’ had already beco a grave threat to the Nine Demons Sect that must be eradicated swiftly.
"This kid, without sect or faction, keeps a low profile, and drives a Tier Six Spirit Ship, making it quite difficult to eliminate him!"
Ancestor Wanji Demon repeatedly examined the intelligence Jade Scroll, his brow furrowed. This re Mid-Stage Nascent Soul kid had him in a bind; dealing with him was no simple task.
"Not only that, this kid is an Artifact Refining Grandmaster, adept in Sword Arrays and proficient in Arrays. Ordinary Demon Venerables are no match for him. Now, he’s more skilled in Beast Taming, gathering several Tier Six Beasts, seemingly Five Elents Beasts, and has refined Lifebound Spiritual Treasures for them. This ans he can control the Five Elents Beasts to arrange a Five Elents Array!" Ancestor Wutian Demon sighed, his face grave as he added.
Previously, he had encounters with Li Mu during bouts with Tianshang Supre. Several subordinates lost their lives to his sword, and Ancestor Wutian Demon was quite familiar with his tactics and abilities.
Such an enemy was incredibly difficult to deal with, requiring cautious handling, without any underestimation. Otherwise, it was easy to end up like Xueming and Yin Jiong, falling at this kid’s hands.
"Think of a way to have this kid co knocking on our door himself!" Ancestor Wanji Demon’s gaze flickered with a trace of viciousness as he pondered.
"I have tried this, but this kid, despite his obvious desire for the Tier Seven Purple lody Celestial Fla! Information was deliberately leaked to him, but sohow sothing went wrong, and the Profound Celestial Sword Sect group showed up!" Ancestor Wutian Demon sighed heavily, still gnawing at the failure of the previous ambush.
Previously, he had deliberately leaked the information about the Purple lody Celestial Fla to him, but the kid remained passive, as if everything was within his expectations. This induced a sense of helplessness since without enticing him out, there would be very few chances to act against him.
Ancestor Wanji Demon repeatedly pored over the intelligence Jade Scroll, eyes revealing a deep thought.
Monts later, Ancestor Wanji Demon looked at Ancestor Wutian Demon, making a judgnt, "This child is cautious by nature, adept at enduring, yet this ti Xueming and Yin Jiong fell because of him. Given this child’s nature, he must fear our revenge!"
"You an he will soon opt for an escape?" Ancestor Wutian Demon’s spirit stirred, looking at Ancestor Wanji Demon.
"Indeed! Currently, seventy percent of the South Wilderness Spirit Realm is already under our control, the situation is set. Based on this child’s abilities, his exceptional talent, he is highly valued by the Profound Celestial Sword Array, Taiyi Sect, and the Kun Family. If he hasn’t left the South Wilderness yet, there must be a reason,...."
"However, after the unexpected clash with Xueming and causing Xueming’s fall, severely injuring Yin Jiong, he will definitely consider our revenge. In such a scenario, due to his cautious nature, he will surely leave the South Wilderness Spirit Realm soon, heading to the Central Continent!"
"This child has excellent relations with several powers in the Central Continent, but the hidden competition among these powers is extrely fierce. According to his nature, he will not offend one sect for the sake of another alliance, so if he were to leave the Central Continent Spirit Realm, the greatest possibility is to use the Cross-Domain Treasure Ship of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion!"
"This child rears nurous Tier Six Beasts and must have a great demand for High-tier Five Elents Spiritual Objects,.... Moreover, this child excels in Artifact Refining, taking many commissions to Refine Tier Six Spiritual Treasures from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, with close cooperation. We may need to offer so High-tier Spiritual Objects, ordering subordinates to commission Refinents through the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, confirming his whereabouts."
...
Ancestor Wanji Demon gazed at the intelligence Jade Scroll, providing Ancestor Wutian Demon with detailed analysis, explaining Li Mu’s situation and proposing a targeted ambush plan.
"Good! Good! Indeed excellent! We shall proceed according to your plan, keeping an eye on the Treasure Ship of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, ambushing this child, and also seizing this opportunity to sever the passage between the two realms." Ancestor Wutian Demon felt overjoyed upon hearing this and fully supported Ancestor Wanji Demon’s plan, deciding to implent it imdiately.
To ensure the success of the plan, they discussed so details, Ancestor Wanji Demon suggested further utilizing the spies in Desolate Ancient City to collect more intelligence on Li Mu, and also closely monitor the moves of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion to grasp their Cross-Domain Treasure Ship’s whereabouts.
As the two Demon Ancestors were plotting an ambush to eliminate the nagging threat, Li Mu, just as Ancestor Wanji Demon predicted, piloted the Earth Elent Spirit Ship, returning to Desolate Ancient City, preparing to board the Treasure Transport Ship of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, and leave the South Wilderness Spirit Realm.
After tallying the losses of Spirit Plants within the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, Li Mu completely abandoned the idea of going to Yin Yang Valley to transplant Purple Sun Reishi and Yin Soul Fruits.
The Tier Four Five Elents Spirit Plants planted in the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion suffered severe damage, and this round of harvesting Five Elents Spirit Plants, Yin Yang Spirit Plants, to increase Yin Yang Five Elents Scripture Proficiency and Cultivation level was a total bust!
Around sixty percent of the Tier Five, Tier Six Spirit Plants were nearly destroyed, leaving Li Mu’s heart bleeding, forcing an early salvage of so High-tier Spirit Plants that hadn’t completely lost vitality to rescue so yields.
However, this rushed salvage unexpectedly yielded so gains for Li Mu.
Plus, the spoils of war from the two Ancestor Void Refining Demons provided Li Mu with so psychological comfort, and his long gloomy face finally revealed a smile.
In the cabin of the Earth Elent Spirit Ship, Li Mu and Xue’Er sat before a wooden table, tallying the spoils, with Xue’Er occasionally exclaiming in surprise, making it quite lively.
