Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence

Chapter 353: Chapter 165: The Legacy of the Supreme Taoist_2

He had indirect cooperation with Marquis Zhennan a few times, but he never truly had a face-to-face encounter, and Marquis Zhennan’s promotion or lack thereof was of little significance to him.

However, his Star Astrology Divine Power had sensed something unusual from the variable that was Marquis Zhennan’s defense of Fengdu this time, a premonition of cause and effect that was far from ordinary.

“Fengdu City will soon face a great upheaval!”

Shen Yuan’s eyes flickered slightly, a sense of caution rising in his heart.

Although Fengdu City was merely a city, the significance it represented was far more than just a simple city.

The Human Emperor of Great Yin had severed the connection with the Upper World through the Great Schism, also isolating most of the mortal realm from the dark Netherworld’s exchanges.

Nevertheless, the cycle of reincarnation in the Netherworld was ultimately part of the Heaven and Earth Dao. Even the Human Emperor of Great Yin could not entirely sever it, and there were still a few gateways in the mortal realm that led to the Netherworld, with Fengdu City being one of them.

If Fengdu City were to undergo changes, it might involve the entire dark Netherworld.

“However, if the sky were to fall, there are so many Grotto Heavens Sacred Lands and Great Xia’s Imperial Court to support it, what does it have to do with me, a mere Qi-training cultivator?”

Shen Yuan was quite at ease in his mind, and after paying a bit of attention, he no longer concerned himself with it.

Compared to the yet-to-happen events in Fengdu, Shen Yuan was more interested in another matter.

“Previously in Cang Province, I realized I was being plotted against by relying on the authority of The Lord of the Gods Path, but I was in a bind without a deductive method to find the source of the scheming.

Now that I have mastered Star Astrology Divine Power, I finally have the chance to retaliate.”

Above the sky of the Courtyard Secret Realm, stars once again fell into position, elaborating a vast chessboard.

Shen Yuan used star divination to deduce, tracing back to that strand of cause and effect, his eyes shifting and gazing toward the distant Qing Province.

“Finally, I’ve caught you!”

…

Qing Province, amidst a desolate mountain range.

Accompanied by a tremendous earthquake that shattered mountains and split the earth, a piece of a broken mountain plummeted down onto the desolate hills, revealed through massive spatial rifts that appeared across the landscape.

The mountains trembled, and the beasts howled in grief!

Within the wilderness, several monster tribe members with significant cultivation gazed at the huge spatial rift before them, unable to resist exclaiming in shock:

“It’s a Broken Secret Realm! Why would there be a Secret Realm appearing here?”

However, before he could figure out the reason, a massive hand stretched out from the darkness slowly grasped his head.

The next moment his Spirit Soul shattered, his True Spirit annihilated.

Such incidents occurred almost simultaneously within tens of miles, and nearly all monsters who witnessed this scene were silenced.

Moments later, figures with formidable auras gathered above the desolate mountain.

The figures gathering here were all powerful from the monster tribe. There was a fox demon with a seductive appearance and four fox tails, a deer demon with antlers and holding a wooden staff, a tiger demon with the character “king” on its head and a bloodthirsty, violent aura…

The monsters who revealed themselves were at least powerful experts who had stepped into the Spirit Transmutation Stage, and some had even undergone external tribulations, their aura faintly transforming towards the Yang Shen Realm.

Once they achieved Yang Shen, they would be powerful enough to command a Demons’ Realm and order around a group of demons.

Yet, such a group of powerful monsters were all injured to various degrees at this moment.

The fox demon’s three tails were almost completely severed by the sharp edges of space, with blood still flowing from the wounds; the deer demon was missing a leg, and the tiger demon’s left eye was now a pitch-black void.

These injuries were not irrecoverable for great Spirit Transmutation demons, but their arrival in the mortal realm, before the complete revival of the rules, was already a defiance of heaven and earth. Currently, they were all suffering from the backlash of heaven and earth, unable to heal their wounds.

Had it not been for the fact that the revival of heaven and earth’s rules had intensified in the past three months, lessening the suppression on the great Spirit Transmutation demons, just the backlash from heaven and earth alone would have been enough to severely wound them.

Thinking of this, the gathered great Spirit Transmutation demons looked grimly at the broken mountain that had fallen from the Secret Realm.

The deer demon with the staff limped forward and said coldly, “Since my birth, I’ve never suffered such a loss!”

The fox demon’s seductive eyes flashed with viciousness. “This Broken Secret Realm is much more dangerous than we initially anticipated; is this the plan you Ancient Demon Hall have been preparing for half a year?”

The tiger demon opened its wide mouth, letting out an angry roar. “If you can’t produce something to my satisfaction, I swear I’ll tear apart the fellows from Ancient Demon Hall alive!”

While the other great Spirit Transmutation demons did not speak, they also looked over the half-mountain with cold eyes.

There were nearly ten great Spirit Transmutation demons gathered here. Even though demons with long lifespans could potentially survive the three-thousand-year Spirit Energy Exhaustion era, the number of lucky ones who actually managed to reach this stage was extremely few.

Often, in a Demons’ Realm gathered by a Demon King, only a handful of great Spirit Transmutation demons could endure the three-thousand-year catastrophe, their numbers even rarer than those of Spirit Refining Demon Kings.

In such circumstances, the great Spirit Transmutation demons present represented the interests of several Demons’ Realms.

A few months ago, news came from Ancient Demon Hall, one of the monster tribe’s Realms, that they were plotting a major event.

To prepare for this, Ancient Demon Hall sought the aid of great Spirit Transmutation demons from various realms. They even had a reincarnated Great Demon, claiming to be Demon Saint Bai Ze, employ calculations to ensure nothing could go wrong.

Who would have thought that after such long preparations, a slip would lead to the collapse of the Secret Realm, and all the powerful demons present nearly perished within.

This defeat naturally caused great anger among the present great Spirit Transmutation demons.

Now they could only hope that the gains from this risky venture could compensate for their own losses.
