Chapter 972: 920-921 The Rise of the Green Duckweed and the Council of the Demon Race_2 Chapter 972: 920-921 The Rise of the Green Duckweed and the Council of the Demon Race_2 Regardless of what they thought, they had never imagined that within this Spirit Realm Cave Sky, there were actually dozens more hidden Spirit Realm Cave Skies. It was truly unimaginable.

So True Immortals also secretly grumbled in their hearts, envious of how well their human counterparts’ predecessors had done, leaving behind so many gifts for future generations, unlike their Demon Race ancestors who had left nothing behind.

“Enough, stop complaining,” the Lion Emperor snapped as he looked at the nurous Demon Kings causing a ruckus.

His gaze swept coldly over the Demon Kings as he said sternly, “Things have co to this, there is no need for complaints. We simply underestimated the human race. However, if the humans think they can rise smoothly, that’s a pipe dream. I will absolutely not allow it. This ti, you will all follow in taking action, and we must not allow the human race’s plans to succeed.”

As the sovereign of the Demon Race, receiving the worship and reverence of countless demons, he naturally bore the responsibility of protecting the Demon Race. Moreover, the title of Demon Emperor was tied to the existence of the Demon Race itself—if there were no Demon Race, there would be no Demon Emperor.

They had originally thought that with the appearance of True Immortals, the Demon Race could exist forever. However, they had not anticipated such a turn of events, where the ergence of these Spirit Realm Cave Skies undeniably disrupted the balance between the human and Demon Races.

This was sothing the Lion Emperor could not tolerate. He had to destroy it all; otherwise, the ergence of more True Immortals from the human race in the future would greatly reduce the living space for the Demon Race, and could even lead to their extinction.

The Demon Race was secretly preparing, waiting for an opportunity to act. Although it had yet to be detected, the situation between the two races was such that no evidence was needed for the strong ones among the humans to guess these matters.

Because the Demon Race dreaded the strength of the humans and the breaking of the balance, the humans harbored the sa concerns. If the Demon Race found themselves in a similar opportunity, the humans would also go to any lengths to destroy it.

Thus, from the beginning, many True Immortals among the humans were secretly on guard. After all, no matter what internal struggles occurred within the human race, it was still a case of internal disputes within the family.

But if the Demon Race made a move, it would either an smashing the pot or even taking away the entire pot. This was a matter of self-interest, and many True Immortals of the human race could also temporarily set aside internal grievances.

The conflict between races was a matter of life and death. Because they could discern the importance of such matters, the human race had persevered across countless years and continued to resist the Demon Race.

Fighting without breaking, prioritizing the greater good of the race has been the core passed down within the human lineage. If they were continuously fighting internally and betraying each other when facing the Demon Race, the human race would have been destroyed long ago.

While the Demon Race was plotting, an avatar of Pei Xuanjing arrived at Dragon Tiger Mountain without a sound.

“True Monarch, your grand arrival is an honor. Please forgive us for not greeting you from afar,” said the Second Generation Celestial Master and Bai Qicang as they promptly greeted Pei Xuanjing.

Pei Xuanjing had only sent a ssage saying he would arrive, but his sudden appearance was unexpected.

True Immortals are revered, and even if the Ancestor Celestial Master is a senior, it would be presumptuous to wait for Pei Xuanjing to pay a visit.

However, the ti was too hasty, and the Ancestor Celestial Master had not yet exited seclusion.

Fearing that Pei Xuanjing might misunderstand, the Second Generation Celestial Master hurriedly explained, “My father is still in seclusion, deducing the Taoist Skill and is about to conclude his retreat. Please forgive us, True Monarch.”

“No matter, I myself have co uninvited, and I should ask for your forgiveness,” Pei Xuanjing said with a smile.

To tell the truth, the matter regarding the Spirit Realm Cave Skies had escalated so quickly that it had exceeded Pei Xuanjing’s expectations.

He had originally been in seclusion within the Spirit Realm Cave Sky, contemplating the Dao marks within each Cave Sky to accumulate Taoyun, but then he received Zhu Houji’s ssage that countless strong ones had already gathered at Tiandu. Thus, Pei Xuanjing sent an avatar to descend upon Dragon Tiger Mountain, prepared to discuss the matter with the Ancestor Celestial Master.

As the Ancestor Celestial Master had not yet left seclusion, Pei Xuanjing was arranged by the Second Generation Celestial Master to stay on an isolated mountain peak.

Nowadays, there are actually two Dragon Tiger Mountains between Heaven and Earth, one is the Dragon Tiger Mountain that returned from the Sky Wasteland realm, located outside the territory of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, together with many immortal sect forces.

As for the original Dragon Tiger Mountain, it still sits within the territory of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, known as the Great Ming Dragon Tiger Mountain. The wielder is still that old Celestial Master from the Great Ming rivers and lakes. Favored by the old Celestial Master, he was taken as a disciple by the Second Generation Celestial Master, and with all resources poured into his cultivation, he has already stepped into the Eight-Layer Spirit Realm and started advancing toward the Spiritual Realm Level Nine Strongest.

It must be said that on the path of cultivation, being guided and supported by soone is much stronger than groping alone.

Pei Xuanjing, Daoist Chunyang, Daoist Xuanming of Baiyun Temple, the old Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain, Zhao Baiyang, Tie Qianshan, Xue Wuheng, Qingxu Taoist of True Martial Sect, and Bai Xiaosheng, they all started nearly at the sa starting line at that ti.

Not to ntion Pei Xuanjing, who had the aid of a Life Simulator, Qingxu Taoist had the serendipitous gain of a deity’s position. Other than these two, the rest started off the sa.

However, the old Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain, with the cultivation and support from Dragon Tiger Mountain, is now able to move toward the Ninefold Spiritual Realm of the Strongest.

anwhile, Zhao Baiyang, Tie Qianshan, and Xue Wuheng, who were at the sa level at the ti, even with slightly better aptitude, have only just stepped into the Eight-Layer Spirit Realm. As for Daoist Xuanming and Daoist Chunyang, they are still one step away from entering the Eight-Layer Spirit Realm.

This is the disparity that support, or lack thereof, can make, especially as one progresses further, it becos even more pronounced.

“Spirit Realm Cave Sky, an essential item related to the Earth Immortal Path that leads to becoming a True Immortal. It’s just too bad that our foundation simply cannot support the conquest of a Spirit Realm Cave Sky. Even if we managed to find one, we wouldn’t have the power to defend it,” said Zi Tianxiong with a rather unsightly expression.

Just as Pei Xuanjing reminisced about his old friends and rivals with whom he once sparred on Dragon Tiger Mountain due to the old Celestial Master’s matters, these people were also discussing the most lively affairs between Heaven and Earth at present.

In the past, before the various forces of the Sky Wasteland realm had returned and many powerhouses had not descended, Pei Xuanjing was the protector of many forces in the Daming World, also using his influence to help them guard their interests.

But all this was prior to the ascension of Heaven and Earth. After the origin of the Sky Wasteland realm rged with the Daming World, and True Immortals began to appear following the ascension, the beings of the original Sky Wasteland realm completely integrated into the Daming World.

Under such circumstances, the beings of the two worlds had no other choice but to coexist in the newly ascended Daming World.

At this mont, as the rger of the two worlds began, Pei Xuanjing only instructed the Taoist Academy and the Shenxiao Sect in secret to pay attention to the balance being disrupted during the rger of the two human races, and aside from that, he did not interfere with other matters.

It can be said that, after the ascension of Heaven and Earth and after Pei Xuanjing achieved True Immortality, as the two worlds rged, Zhao Baiyang and the other powerhouses, having been relieved from the confrontations and conflicts of interests between the many forces of the Sky Wasteland realm and the native forces of the Daming World, also lost the protection of a True Immortal.

With their power and foundation, after losing the protection of a True Immortal for over a hundred years, even if they rapidly developed and their power expanded quickly, they were still far behind compared to the forces of the Sky Wasteland realm with similar power.

Even if they received quite a bit of the Creation Profound Mystery after the ascension of Heaven and Earth, which allowed them to step into the Eight-Layer Spirit Realm, they couldn’t even contend with the immortal sects, let alone those great forces with a Supre Strong at their helm.

It can be said that after the ascension of Heaven and Earth, when all forces rose a level, after a hundred years, Zhao Baiyang and the others, aside from improving their own power and cultivation, did not change their position in the world one bit.

Just like this ti, when they heard the news passed down by the Great Ming Divine Dynasty and learned that so many Spirit Realm Cave Skies were erging, they could only watch helplessly because their own power simply didn’t support their participation in it.

This makes people feel rather helpless—it’s not for a lack of effort, nor a lack of opportunity. In the current situation, it’s predetermined that those who can partake are at least of the Strongest Realm, otherwise, it would be completely aningless.

The sheer insufficiency of power is the most disheartening.

However, when Zi Tianxiong expressed such sentints, Zhao Baiyang seed to have a different opinion.
