Chapter 305: Chapter 137: Song Brahman Mirror Returns to His Old Haunt, Three Zhenren-Level ‘Nirvana Corpses’ Awaken and Converge at Zither Sword Mountain!

At that time, Wutong Prefecture!

Since the demons occupied the main source and the Prefecture Lord’s Office was transformed into the ’Demon Monarch’s Mansion’.

This Prefecture City has become a realm of demons.

Demons and humans are actually similar, more like a ’humanoid’ species, distinct from the mountain beasts and spirits, belonging to completely different kinds.

They don’t eat humans, unless one possesses robust energy and blood, like a greatly nourishing ’martial artist’.

But this reasoning, as long as one crosses the barrier of eating intelligent beings, whether human or demon, when facing ’food’ that can enhance cultivation, no one would resist.

The reason they’re called ’demons’ is because humans inhale the pure Qi of heaven and earth to become ’Great Innate’, whereas demons, upon taking the second step, mostly use human Qi and blood to fulfill the needs of cultivation.

Everything,

is for the sake of the word ’cultivation’!

This is buried within the bones and blood of all ’intelligent beings’, stemming from an innate yearning for the extraordinary!

The demons of Xuanqing Demon Mansion took over the operations of Wutong Government Office, donning official robes.

Alongside the surrounding three prefectures, once the site of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall, the ’Demon Suppression Mansion’, together with Shunan Prefecture and Wutong Prefecture, formed a ’temporary demon regime’.

Opposite from Baoping Mansion of the eastern Baoping State, they confronted each other across a great distance.

Among them, dominant forces like ’Jing River Dragon Court’ and the ’Ten Thousand Beasts Alliance’, stationed themselves at the ’Demon Suppression Mansion’, researching the mysteries of the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall set up by the Great Demon Hunter Master.

Meanwhile, they observed how Great Zhao would react to the large-scale invasion of the Northwest Wilderness.

Actually, launching the ’Second Treasure Bottle Turmoil’ was not without aim.

Because, at this moment in time.

The Divine Blood Sect had branches inside Great Zhao instigating coups multiple times, coinciding with the Empress hiding in seclusion for a long duration, with ’Royal Vein’ descendants vying for the Eastern Palace to govern on behalf of the Emperor, leading to continuous conflicts.

The southern border stirred with commotion as well, affecting various prefectures in Great Zhao’s southeastern border states, long tying up many experts.

It’s heard that in recent years, there are those who have acquired the ’True Heaven’s Law’, capable of calling wind and rain, appearing not like ordinary folks, even prominent figures find handling them quite ’troublesomes’.

Moreover,

Within Great Zhao, ’Grotto Heaven’ hasn’t been opened, upholding the Great Demon Hunter Master’s intentions, completely sealed, suppressed, so many high-level individuals and experts are expending efforts on this, unable to free themselves.

This led to many voicing ’opposition’, saying reopening the Cave Heaven era is the general trend and should not be obstructed, among them, ancestral courts of major martial schools occupied a major portion.

Therefore, the disagreement between Jianghu and the government office isn’t a matter of just a year or two.

In addition, a century ago, neither demons nor the Empress and the Great Demon Hunter Master era.

Never aimed the butcher’s knife at Jianghu giants and factions, or maybe thought of it, but before that time arrived, the plan’s dignitaries were gone.

Thus, to this day.

The deep foundation of many great sects has become unfathomable, can’t be underestimated, secretly always holding back the ’Great Zhao Official Mansion’, causing many Marquis Wu, even Duke level, or even sealed king ranks...

Unable to help but be overwhelmed!

Precisely at this internal and external troubled time node, with people backing and others restraining.

Hence, led by the ’Ten Thousand Beasts Alliance’, coupling the Jing River Dragon Court, and the Great Snow Mountain Demon Monarch brimming with ’hatred’ towards Baoping State, numerous demon monarchs in the northwest corner intended to ’reclaim old territories’!

Even if unable to repeat the momentum of the ’orthodox’ past.

At the very least, partition Baoping, and re-establish governance!

On this day.

From retreating from Zither Sword Mountain, ’Xuanqing Demon Monarch’ Gu Hua’s face was as black as ink.

He never imagined...

The ant he once didn’t even consider, barely remembering the name, would someday rise with such audacity and courage!

Failing to open Celestial Gate, left with merely an almost exhausted lifespan and shaky third-step Celestial Human Realm foundation, not quietly waiting to die, dared, crazy-like, to draw his sword to the heavens, taking him as the obsession to open the Celestial Gate!

And...

He actually succeeded.

When Tantai Yao opened the ’Celestial Gate’, the manifestation of the true master’s ’manifestation’ occurred, Xuanqing Demon Monarch Gu Hua felt a chill in his heart.

In this world, every realm has ’levels’.

The first step’s Martial Pass ’Circulation Qi Collection’ is so.

The third step’s Yuan Pill formation is so.

The fourth step’s true master’s ’manifestation’, naturally so too.

Having used a secret place of the ’Jing River Dragon Court’ to cleverly breakthrough, merely manifesting his bloodline manifestation, Xuanqing Demon Monarch is naturally of the lowest level.

The one who used his sword to break free from the cage of his heart demon, manifesting the ’Dragon-Slaying Sword’, Tantai Yao, evidently surpassed him.

Moreover ————

This guy, the ’opportunity’ to open the Celestial Gate was him!

Resulting in the true master’s ’manifestation’ source naturally restraining him, was originally meant for fighting him.

A series of elements, causing even though Gu Hua stepped into the fourth step over twenty years earlier, he still couldn’t defeat Tantai Yao.

Even battled later, making Tantai Yao familiar with his true master’s magical power, as he grew more adept, himself fell into the disadvantage, seeing the situation was unfavorable, he had to retreat immediately!

Leading to Xuanqing Demon Vein’s expansion journey, suffering military defeat and setback at Zither Sword Mountain, having lost two Primordial Pill commanders within.

Upon returning,

he saw his son Ancient Celestial Heaven came back from Black Mountain City with an arm crippled, fleeing in disgrace, and lost another grand general, leaving him extremely frustrated.
