Chapter 131: Welcoming Demon Grand Ceremony, Mysterious Divine Ability [Fourth Update, requesting monthly votes]

"Senior, I cannot agree with those words. In the Mortal Realm, no one Cultivates harder than me!" Han Jue said, frowning.

Zhang Guxing was stunned, asking in shock and doubt, "You have already reached the Mahayana Realm? Just how many years has it been…"

Not only was this youth's talent in the sword path peerless, but even his cultivation talent was this terrifying?

Zhang Guxing couldn't help but re-evaluate Han Jue.

Han Jue cupped his fists in salute to him, then walked past him and continued forward.

This time, Han Jue wanted to see just how far he could walk!

Zhang Guxing turned around as well, looking at his back.

For some reason, Zhang Guxing felt that Han Jue was different from before.

He seemingly was no longer a Mortal.

Beneath a cloudy vault of heaven, amidst broken walls and ruined ramparts, over the rolling earth, True Person Jiuding led the Cultivators of the Yuqing Sacred Sect forward with vigilance.

Liu Bumie, Guan Yougang, Fairy Xixuan, and Xing Hongxuan were also among them.

"So this is the Demonic Path's imperial city? It looks so dilapidated!"

"It is said that Demonic Cultivators go mad from time to time, so the Devil Emperor couldn't be bothered to rebuild the city."

"Strange, why are the people from the other great Righteous Path Sects nowhere to be seen?"

"I also feel something is wrong."

"Everyone be careful, people of the Demonic Path are full of tricks!"

The Cultivators of the Yuqing Sacred Sect whispered among themselves, everyone gripping their Magic Treasures tightly, not daring to let down their guard.

Xing Hongxuan raised her eyes to look. The sky at the end of the dark clouds was blood-red, and at the end of the rolling earth, a huge city was faintly visible.

She furrowed her delicate brows, feeling an inexplicable unease in her heart.

Liu Bumie followed beside True Person Jiuding, saying in a low voice, "Sect Master, have you noticed a bizarre matter?"

"What matter?"

"Demonic Cultivators seem endless."

"Hmm?"

"Logically speaking, the number of Demonic Cultivators cannot exceed our Righteous Path, but after decades of great war, Demonic Cultivators are still everywhere. In addition, the figures of our Righteous Path Cultivators seem to be decreasing."

True Person Jiuding's expression changed, and he asked in a low voice, "You mean…"

Liu Bumie's expression was grave as he said, "As one grows, the other wanes. I suspect that the Demonic Path possesses a power that causes Righteous Path Cultivators to fall into the Demonic Path. Along the way, haven't we encountered many Demonic Cultivators who suffered from Qi Deviation?"

True Person Jiuding's heart shook. At this, he completely failed to maintain his composure.

He nervously looked at the surrounding dilapidated city, where corpses could be seen everywhere. He suddenly felt as though something in the dark was spying on him.

"Why don't we retreat? We have no need to fight our way to the Demonic Path's imperial city," Guan Yougang stepped close and said.

Although the Yuqing Sacred Sect was the number one Sect of Great Yan, looking across the world, it barely counted as third-rate.

In a decisive battle of this scale, the influence of the Yuqing Sacred Sect was negligible.

True Person Jiuding stopped in his tracks, turned around, and said, "Everyone follow me and retreat!"

He leaped into the air and flew toward the direction they had come from.

Rumble—

A figure slammed down from the rolling dark clouds, crashing directly onto the dilapidated street, kicking up a ring of dust as shattered stones swept across all directions.

As the dust cleared, a towering, robust figure appeared.

It was unexpectedly the Greedy Demon Arhat, one of the Five Venerables of the Demonic Path!

Upon seeing him, True Person Jiuding and the others drastically changed expressions, all of them able to sense the other party's power.

The Greedy Demon Arhat slowly opened his eyes, his right hand held vertically before his chest, and said, "Amitabha, where are all of you wishing to go? Since you have come, you might as well enter the Demonic Path together!"

Inside the Innate Cave Mansion.

Han Jue's consciousness returned to his body.

Spiritual Qi frantically drilled into his body, and his Dao Cultivation began to grow.

This time, skipping past Taiyi, he advanced twenty paces!

The Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow World-Breaking Sword Finger underwent a metamorphosis!

Under his comprehension, this Divine Ability expanded world-breaking from intensity to trajectory. When the Sword Qi was fired, breaking through space to shoot far away, it was similar to teleportation or spatial jumping. As long as his Divine Sense could lock onto the opponent, he could achieve a long-range kill!

Han Jue was very satisfied.

Whether at close range or long range, the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow World-Breaking Sword Finger possessed infinite lethality, and he believed few in the Mortal Realm could endure it.

Han Jue took out the book of misfortune and began cursing Ji Naihe, the Vermilion Bird, and Daoist Jue Yan.

No matter how strong they were, daily tasks could not be dropped!

While cursing, he checked his mail.

[Your friend True Person Jiuding was captured by Demonic Cultivators]

[Your friend Fairy Xixuan was captured by Demonic Cultivators]

[Your Dao Companion Xing Hongxuan was captured by Demonic Cultivators]

[Your disciple Su Qi broke free from the state of Qi Deviation, his divine godhood completely awakened, and his Dao Cultivation surged]

[Your Grand-disciple Fang Liang was attacked by Demonic Cultivators] x4679

[Your Grand-disciple Fang Liang suffered heavy injuries, fortunately saved by a Divine Beast, and was brought into a blessed land]

[Your friend Mo Fuchou was saved by your friend Mo Zhu, escaping the Seal]

[Your friend Huang Jihao was captured by Demonic Cultivators]

So many captives!

Han Jue frowned; even Guan Yougang, Liu Bumie, and the others had been captured.

What was going on?

Han Jue immediately connected his consciousness to Xing Hongxuan's Heavenly Puppet.

At this moment.

Xing Hongxuan and the Cultivators of the Yuqing Sacred Sect were locked inside a grand hall, all of them in listless states.

This grand hall was very vast, holding tens of thousands of Cultivators, and Han Jue even saw Huang Jihao.

Huang Jihao was meditating cross-legged in a corner, his hair disheveled and looking extremely wretched.

What in the world was going on?

Han Jue transmitted his voice to Xing Hongxuan via the Heavenly Puppet: "What happened? Transmit your voice to your storage ring, and don't make a fuss!"

Xing Hongxuan was startled by the sudden voice, but upon hearing that it was Han Jue's voice, she immediately calmed down.

"We were captured by the Greedy Demon Arhat…" Xing Hongxuan transmitted her voice to her storage ring and began recounting her experiences during this period.

Encountering the Greedy Demon Arhat, one of the Five Venerables of the Demonic Path, the group from the Yuqing Sacred Sect naturally was no match.

True Person Jiuding and Liu Bumie had been crippled with a single punch by the Greedy Demon Arhat.

Fortunately, the Greedy Demon Arhat did not intend to kill them, which was why they managed to survive.

"The four venerables of the Demonic Path seem to be frantically capturing Righteous Path Cultivators. It's said to be related to the Welcoming Demon Grand Ceremony."

"Which 'welcoming'?"

"Pui, stop thinking nonsense! Welcoming as in greeting. The Devil Emperor seems to have an unspeakable secret; it is said that he was summoned into the Mortal Realm, and he might be summoning even more demons."

"In other words, you guys might be offerings?"

"Mhm. Husband, this time, we've fallen. Let's be husband and wife again in our next lives."

"What about the Heavenly Immortal Manor?"

"Unclear."

Han Jue fell into contemplation.

What was going on?

He had thought the Righteous Path had already gained the upper hand, but hearing Xing Hongxuan's words now, it seemed the Demonic Path held the upper hand.

And that Welcoming Demon Grand Ceremony—don't tell him they were summoning the ancient Demon Race?

The more Han Jue thought about it, the more nervous he became. He appeased Xing Hongxuan with a few words, then ceased voice transmissions.

Things having reached this point, he had no choice but to make a move!

Once the Demon Race arrived, the world would become even less peaceful, and Han Jue certainly didn't want his cultivation to be disturbed.

Han Jue raised his right hand, stuck out his middle finger, and muttered, "When the time comes, I'll be counting on you."

The Enlightenment Sword was facing directly opposite him, imitating him by sticking out her right-hand middle finger, and asked Han Jue, "Master, what does this mean? Is this the starting stance for a Divine Ability?"

"Mhm. This Divine Ability cannot be used lightly, unless it is a desperate situation of certain death."

"Then what use does it have?"

"It can make you feel a bit more comfortable in your heart before you die."

"Hmm?"

Han Jue ignored the Enlightenment Sword, stood up, and walked out of the Innate Cave Mansion.

Fourth update!

Damn it, isn't this more updates than before the release?
