Chapter 80: Holy Island

Chapter 80: Yin Sheng Island

A streak of light streaked across the distance and quickly landed beside Zhang Yuhe.

Li Tian appeared and respectfully called out, “Greetings, Old Ancestor.”

For this Undergoing Tribulation, he had called Li Tian over again to act as Protector.

This young man was very good; Zhang Yuhe thought highly of him.

However, at this moment, Li Tian’s heart was very complicated.

Less than a thousand years had passed.

The former Junior Brother had slowly become Junior Martial Uncle, and now he was actually a Great Ascension Old Ancestor.

Thinking that he cultivated diligently every day, not daring to relax in the slightest, yet he had only just reached the Middle Stage of the Void Refining Realm.

Li Tian felt a little emotional.

To be honest, being able to take a big step in the Void Refining Realm in a thousand years was already considered very fast.

However, compared to Zhang Yuhe, Li Tian simply didn't know what to say.

The huge disparity in status made him somewhat difficult to adapt to.

“Brother Li, no need to be so polite.”

Zhang Yuhe was also a little unaccustomed to Li Tian’s form of address.

Although he had Cultivated for more than a thousand years in Yu Fan Heaven, if calculated by Blue Star time, it was only a little over three years.

And now he was an Old Ancestor?

It always felt a little strange.

“I wouldn’t dare, wouldn’t dare, Old Ancestor, just call me by my name.”

Zhang Yuhe was a little speechless.

Alright, he knew Cultivators liked to be particular.

It was indeed a bit inappropriate for a Great Ascension Old Ancestor to address a Void Refining Realm Cultivator as a brother.

The key was that they were still in the same Sect.

If Li Tian really accepted it, he would probably be branded with the label of deceiving his master and destroying his ancestors.

“Alright, let’s go back first.”

Zhang Yuhe no longer dwelled on it.

What he was called wasn't important, as long as he had the heart.

After speaking, he took out a flying boat, and the two quickly boarded it.

Zhang Yuhe cast a spell, and the flying boat transformed into a streak of light, quickly cutting through the sky and departing.

…

Tianxing Sea, Yin Sheng Island.

This was where Zhao Mingyue and the Demon Race had discovered the weak point in space.

To welcome the Demon God Palace’s army, they had specifically renamed this place Yin Sheng Island.

At this moment, Zhao Mingyue and several Demon Race members stood on a huge altar.

Around the altar, one hundred and eight tall black pillars stood, soaring into the clouds.

Yin Sheng Island was originally just an unnamed desolate island in the Tianxing Sea.

After discovering that the spatial barrier here was weaker than in other places, Black Demon led the other six Demon Race members to guard this place long-term and seal off the surrounding hundred thousand li of Void Realm.

Originally, there were eight of them in total.

However, to attract the attention of the Dao Saint Sect, Zhao Mingyue’s Incarnation led one of the Void Refining Realm Demon Race members.

They continuously opened temporary passages in various places, hoping to bring great chaos to Yu Fan Heaven.

This was to keep the Dao Saint Sect busy with eradicating those weaker Demon Race members, so that Yin Sheng Island would not be discovered.

But how could they have known that if you walk too many night roads, you will eventually encounter ghosts.

As a result, during one operation, before the temporary passage could even be opened, they were discovered by the Dao Saint Sect.

Lu Mingfang personally took action and crushed that Void Refining Realm Demon Race member and Zhao Mingyue’s Incarnation into dust.

After this, the remaining Demon Race members refused to continue, no matter what.

It was simply too dangerous.

They would soon be able to return to the Demon Realm.

They absolutely refused to take any more risks and did not want to try to pinpoint the Demon Realm’s location again.

Zhao Mingyue was helpless in this regard; without the Demon Race pinpointing the coordinates, she also couldn't open temporary passages.

Therefore, they had to stop their actions and all gathered on Yin Sheng Island, quietly waiting to welcome the Demon Clan Army.

Fortunately, this place was sufficiently hidden.

Up until now, it had not been exposed.

Occasionally, Cultivators who stumbled into this place were promptly killed by them.

They had not exposed any information about this place.

To date, the Dao Saint Sect had not discovered their arrangements.

The one human and seven Demon Race members stood quietly on the altar.

Suddenly, Zhao Mingyue, with a blooming face, asked one of the Demon Race members, “Lord Black Demon, have you located the coordinates of the Demon Realm?”

Black Demon, holding a Formation Plate, nodded and replied, “It has been located.”

“When can the passage be opened?” Zhao Mingyue asked somewhat eagerly.

She didn't want to wait a moment longer, fearing that something unexpected might happen again.

Having secretly fought with the Dao Saint Sect for countless years, Zhao Mingyue deeply understood the Dao Saint Sect’s influence in Yu Fan Heaven.

Although this place was hidden, opening the passage one day later would mean one more day of risk.

Only by opening the passage earlier and successfully bringing the Demon Race Mahayana Cultivators to Yu Fan Heaven could she rest assured.

She didn't know what Mo Yuetian was thinking, insisting on delaying for a thousand years.

Didn't Mo Yuetian understand the saying, ‘The longer the night, the more dreams there are’?

Regarding Zhao Mingyue’s question, Black Demon was somewhat disdainful; she had asked this question countless times.

However, before the Demon God Palace’s army descended, they still needed Zhao Mingyue’s help.

Relying solely on their few Demon Race members, they couldn't accomplish anything in Yu Fan Heaven.

Their Devilish Qi was completely impossible to conceal, making it impossible for them to appear in front of people.

Thinking of this, Black Demon said indifferently, “Fairy Zhao, don’t be anxious. There are still three days until the time agreed upon with the Palace Master.”

After speaking, Black Demon closed his eyes.

Zhao Mingyue naturally understood the change in the Demon Race’s attitude, but she was also very helpless.

She wanted to get a solution for her incomplete Divine Soul from the Demon God Palace, so she had to work for the Demon Race.

In the past, the Demon Race in Yu Fan Heaven was isolated and helpless, and all matters were still centered around her.

Now that the Demon God Palace’s army was about to descend, these Demon Race members no longer paid much attention to her.

She was like a rag, casually tossed aside.

“Hoo…” Zhao Mingyue gently let out a breath.

No matter how bad the Demon Race’s attitude was, she had to endure it.

After all, she was the one asking for something now.

Suddenly, Zhao Mingyue’s delicate brows furrowed.

She flipped her wrist, and a Formation Plate appeared in her hand.

Her gaze fell upon the Formation Plate.

She saw a small dot of light glowing in the center of the Formation Plate, and the light dot was rapidly approaching their location.

“Not good, someone is coming this way.”

…

On the sea surface three hundred thousand li away from Yin Sheng Island, a streak of light quickly streaked across.

A young man in purple robes was flying rapidly.

The young man was Yang Rui, an Inner Sect Disciple of the Dao Saint Sect, currently serving as the Town Guardian Envoy in the newly established Ming Province.

In recent years, he had continuously received reports of Cultivators disappearing in a certain part of the Tianxing Sea.

At first, Yang Rui didn’t pay much attention.

It was too normal for Cultivators to disappear in the Tianxing Sea.

After all, there were also powerful Yao Beasts in the Tianxing Sea.

It wasn’t strange for Cultivators to go on adventures in the Tianxing Sea and be killed by Yao Beasts.

However, as more and more Cultivators disappeared, it became somewhat abnormal.

Moreover, through investigation, he discovered that the locations where these Cultivators disappeared were extremely close to each other.

This made Yang Rui suspicious.

Thinking of how the Sect had been extensively forming Demon Suppression Army in various prefectures in recent millennia, although the Sect Master had not explained the reason, as an Inner Sect Disciple of the Dao Saint Sect, Yang Rui knew that this matter must be related to the Demon Race.

Connecting this to the recent continuous disappearances of Cultivators, he couldn't help but suspect whether there was a Demon Race stronghold near the Tianxing Sea.

Those Cultivators might have encountered the Demon Race, which was why they mysteriously disappeared.

To find out the reason, he decided to come and see for himself.

…

The Demon Race members on the altar, hearing Zhao Mingyue’s exclamation, almost simultaneously stood up.

Black Demon loudly said, “Quickly intercept the person coming; don’t let him get close to the altar.”

Zhao Mingyue and the seven Demon Race members quickly rose into the air and swiftly flew into the distance.
