Tongfeng Town.
Located in Tongguang County of Sword State, it is a large town with a population of over ten thousand.
Now, all the residents of this large town have already relocated and left.
However, the town has not beco deserted. Due to its geographical location, being at the center of the migration area, it has beco the command center for the Divine Sword Sect’s large-scale relocation plan. Thus, there is a large number of Divine Sword Sect martial artists coming and going, making it extrely busy.
Sect Leader Feng Shaoyu has been stationed here since the beginning, directing the entire relocation operation.
Every day, a large amount of information is sent back from various migration teams.
During this ti, so teams have already been attacked by demon creatures.
Two Heavenly Persons from the Divine Sword Sect, Elder Qing Song and Elder Cang Yun, had no choice but to return from the frontlines to clear out the demon creatures.
These demon creatures are very cunning, avoiding direct confrontations with the Heavenly Persons. As soon as a Heavenly Person arrives, they imdiately flee and attack elsewhere... This has already caused a large number of casualties, including many disciples of the Divine Sword Sect.
"It’s strange, why has the frequency of attacks by the demon creatures significantly decreased recently?"
Sect Leader Feng Shaoyu, collecting information from all sides, showed a thoughtful expression on his face.
Although this is a good thing, he always felt that sothing was off.
The two Heavenly Persons have been tirelessly traveling around, tracking the demon creatures, but they only serve to deter them and cannot actually kill them.
"Could it be..."
He suddenly rembered that Elder Jin Hao from one of the migrant groups had ntioned a mysterious powerful person appearing, taking away a monkey demon... Could this mysterious person be secretly eliminating the demon creatures?
However, Elder Jin Hao’s description did not reveal the presence of this mysterious person, only a brilliant golden fla descending from the sky, enveloping the monkey demon, and then the monkey demon struggling to shrink its body...
Swoosh!
Suddenly, two figures descended from the sky and landed in the courtyard.
It was the two Heavenly Persons, Elder Qing Song and Elder Cang Yun.
"Supre Elders, have you discovered any traces of the demon creatures..."
The Sect Leader quickly paid his respects and then asked.
"Not a single hair has been seen; it’s like they’ve vanished into thin air."
Elder Qing Song shook his head.
"Supre Elders, it seems that the frequency of demon creature attacks has significantly decreased recently... Moreover, since yesterday afternoon, there have been no more reports of attacks on the migrating groups."
Sect Leader Feng Shaoyu said, "Could it be that this mysterious powerful person is secretly clearing away the demon creatures?"
"Mhm, it’s not impossible."
Elder Qing Song nodded, then exchanged a glance with Elder Cang Yun. They also suspected that this mysterious powerful person might be the "old ancestor".
However, they hesitated to voice their own speculations.
After all, the existence of the "old ancestor" is the Divine Sword Sect’s highest secret, and even the Sect Leader is unaware of it.
...
It was not until late November that the Divine Sword Sect’s mass migration was basically completed.
By this ti, the weather had already beco very cold.
Along the way, countless bones have been left behind, all of whom failed to complete the journey of migration and died on the road.
The subsequent arrangents for the living conditions of the migrated population were also a huge challenge for the Divine Sword Sect and the local governnt.
During the early stages of the migration, various places began to establish migrant camps to accommodate the migrating population. However, such a massive influx of people naturally caused a huge impact on the local populations.
During these two or three months, Li Qian spent most of his ti traveling outside.
However, he still ensured the basic practice of striking the bell.
Mostly choosing to go out at night and return in the morning.
Thus, his bell-striking practice was not delayed.
Moreover, now that his two disciples were also striking the bell, they could assist him in cultivating the Chen Bell.
...
Ti flies, and in the blink of an eye, more than five years had passed.
Taiwu Dao established seven sturdy fortification camps around Huilong Mountain Range, forming an encirclent to station the Martial Arts Army and Heavenly Person powerhouses long-term.
Within five hundred miles around, there were no human villages, towns, or cities to cut off any possible predation by Lion Cal Demon City on the Human Clan.
Even if demon creatures secretly left, they would have to travel much farther distances, greatly increasing the risk.
In these years, Li Qian seldom left the Chen Bell Platform.
His days were spent silently practicing bell-striking cultivation.
Currently, as Lion Cal Demon City was still within a controllable range and had not fully spread, it ant relative safety.
However... other places continued to receive bad news.
It is said that the Xia Dynasty, bordering Great Success, experienced an extrely severe demon disaster, with many provinces and counties becoming rampant with demon creatures.
Chen Bell Platform.
It was not yet dawn.
Bai Yun and Chai Shao had already started their sword practice.
Dong...
The sound of the 5 a.m. to 7 a.m. bell rang out.
Breaking the tranquility of the Divine Sword Sect.
Li Qian held his sword, practicing swordsmanship, and comprehending the Heartless Sword Intent.
Day after day of bell-striking cultivation, not only did he not find it monotonous, but he greatly enjoyed the pleasure it brought.
Even his two disciples, after so many years of practicing at Chen Bell Platform, rarely left the mountain. Even when they did leave, they only visited the inner gate area.
Not to ntion Chai Shao, even Bai Yun had grown accustod to it.
She no longer clamors about wanting to go ho like before.
Now, Bai Yun has grown into a beautiful young lady, completely transford into a gentle and demure woman.
Chai Shao is even more so needless to say, consistently stable and down-to-earth.
Both have successively comprehended the Heartless Sword Intent.
Their cultivation has also reached the Ninth Layer of the Acquired Stage.
Li Qian does not plan to let them breakthrough to the Innate Realm imdiately, but to cultivate the Pure Sword Body, to see whether they can achieve Perfect Innate.
If they can achieve Perfect Innate, their future accomplishnts will not be limited to ordinary Heavenly Persons.
Li Qian will not blindly insist that both cultivate the Pure Sword Body; it still depends on each individual’s root bone talent. If not possible, they must cut losses in ti.
Otherwise, it would really affect their subsequent cultivation.
Years ago, in order to achieve Perfect Innate, he spent several years cultivating the Pure Sword Body.
Suddenly, after finishing his cultivation, Li Qian’s thoughts moved, and he summoned the system interface to check the latest information.
Heavenly Human Realm (Late Stage 99/100).
Chen Bell (Spiritual Energy 3685/100000).
Great River Sword Qi (Second Layer 100/100).
Heartless Sword Intent (Heavenly Phenonon 84/100).
Qi Blood Holy Realm (Second Process State 3/100).
Lion Cal Ridge Array Solution (Great Success 10/100).
...
After years of cultivation, he has perfected the second layer of the Great River Sword Qi.
Moreover, the Qi Blood Holy Realm has completed its breakthrough, entering the second process state.
The first state of the Qi Blood Holy Realm is blood control.
Any life with qi blood that enters the Qi Blood Holy Realm will be manipulated and suppressed.
The first state was already perfected earlier, and the Qi Blood Holy Realm has automatically derived the second state—presently the second process state.
The second process state is quite mystical; based on Qi blood control, abilities such as Qi Blood Stripping and Qi Blood Life have erged.
That is to say, his Qi Blood Holy Realm could strip away the qi blood of creatures within the realm and use this Qi blood mixed with the power of the Qi Blood Holy Realm to condense into a Blood Spirit. This Blood Spirit could parasitize a lifeless corpse, turning it into a Blood Puppet controlled by him.
The duration a Blood Puppet is maintained depends on the strength of his Blood Spirit.
Moreover, the Blood Puppet can survive for a while even after leaving his Qi Blood Holy Realm.
Up to now, Li Qian has not yet tried the second process state of the Qi Blood Holy Realm.
However, the advancent of the Qi Blood Holy Realm’s second process state is very slow, approximately half a year to improve by one point.
"In no more than three years, my Heartless Sword Intent will reach the complete Heavenly Phenonon Level."
Li Qian’s eyes flickered with light.
As for the subsequent breakthrough to the Myriad Phenona Level, it is yet to be seen.
...
Taiwu Dao Mansion main camp.
Since encircling Huilong Mountain Range, Daoist Master Yu Song has been staying in this camp.
Without him, a Heavenly Phenonon Level Celestial stationed here, the Demon Saints of Huilong Mountain would surely launch an attack imdiately.
"Father, the Demon Disaster Area of Chang Dynasty’s Yangwu Dao has already rged with Xia Dynasty’s Demon Disaster Area... Wasn’t the Xia Dynasty’s side always stable? How has the situation suddenly worsened so severely?"
The elder with a black beard said, frowning.
Now, this situation is grovelling with demons running rampant.
"According to the information passed from above, there is an insider cooperating, causing a grand demon sacrifice there... even the entire Xia Capital and all the Imperial Family were sacrificed, summoning a Four-Staged Myriad Phenona top level Demon Saint."
Daoist Master Yu Song said in a grave voice.
This ti in Huilong Mountain, the demons are probably just ordinary Demon Saints from Lion Cal Ridge, at most Myriad Phenona Third Stage... And, because the demon sacrifice was not completely successful, the Demon Saint’s demon body is not perfect, affecting the strength exerted.
A demon body serves as a shell to accommodate the descending of a Demon Saint’s Myriad Phenona Demon Thought.
Equivalent to the physical body of a human.
The bigger and more successful the demon sacrifice, the higher the quality of the demon body ford, and the higher the final strength limit that can be achieved.
"These beasts... are truly detestable, for their selfish desires, they dare to betray their own kind..."
The elder with a black beard spoke with an angry face.
"In the Ancient Era, there were countless of the Mu Family serving the Demon Race, even though they were thoroughly purged once, so remnants still survived. They have always been in contact with the Demon Domain, and now it is just a resurgence."
Daoist Master Yu Song sighed.
"Father, why hasn’t the top increased reinforcents here? With the current situation in the Human World, I fear it can’t be sustained for long."
The elder with a black beard said.
"Since the great battle at Lotus Pool, our Human Clan suffered heavy losses, the demons gradually regained the upper hand, and my Human Clan internally gradually split into two factions, one advocating for ensuring the safety of the Human World, as our Human Clan’s rear base delivering martial arts talents, but the other faction believes that maintaining a passive defense of the Human World’s barrier is a waste of too many human and material resources, only through cruel survival of the fittest can true martial arts prodigies erge... Now the latter faction has gradually taken power, prevailing."
Daoist Master Yu Song spoke gravely.
"Father, are you saying this is intentional from above?"
The elder with a black beard showed a shocked look.
"The situation is complicated, I’m not particularly clear myself, but... the situation in the Human World will definitely beco more severe."
Daoist Master Yu Song shook his head.
All this was just his speculation.
But the current trend is developing in a direction extrely unfavorable to the Human World.
