Ancient Ancestral Ruins - Chapter 41: Arrival from All Sides
It’s good that demons and monsters are rampant.”
For Lu Jiu, the thing he feared least was the large number of demons.
The more demons there are, the faster his Void Devourer will grow.
After all, his cultivation requires too much spiritual energy from heaven and earth.
If someone at the ninth level of Qi Refining were to devour spiritual veins to cultivate, who knows how much of the resources of a major power would be needed?
But demons are different.
The more the better!
As for the risk of demonic corruption during the process of devouring demons, that is not a problem for Lu Jiu.
This level of demonic invasion could not possibly shake his unwavering Dao heart.
now.
Lu Jiu already knew the origin of the Azure Realm, which was formed from a fragment of the ancient primordial world.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that the Azure Realm isn’t very large.
There are indeed many treasure lands left over from ancient times. For example, in the vast starry sky above the earth, there is an island that is extremely mysterious and is called Golden Crow Island!
Bai Su was a demon from ancient times, and Lu Jiu asked her about the Ancient Demon Realm.
“That was once a pure land for our demon race.”
Bai Su seemed to be recalling something, but gradually frowned, shook her head and slowly said, “I’m sorry, Master, because I was sealed for too long, I can’t remember many of my memories.”
“Then let’s not think about it for now.”
Lu Jiu smiled faintly, not taking it to heart.
He discovered the Ancient Demon Realm, so it naturally became the property of the Lu family. When the Lu family rose to become a supreme family, it was through the Ancient Demon Realm that they obtained a massive amount of resources and accumulated a rich foundation.
However, not long after he disappeared, the Ancient Demon Realm was taken from the Lu family by various forces working together, who claimed that the Ancient Demon Realm belonged to everyone and that the Lu family should not have it all to themselves!
The slogan was indeed loudly proclaimed.
In fact, for thousands of years, the opening of the Ancient Demon Realm has always been controlled by a few top-tier Taoist sects, and the Lu family has been completely excluded.
The Ancient Demon Realm will not open for some time.
However, Lu Jiu had already instructed the Lu family to take stock of their personnel and prepare to set off.
In Lu Jiu’s words.
This time, he will guard the entrance. No one except the Lu family is allowed to enter without his permission. Anyone who dares to force their way in will be killed without mercy!
Although the Lu family has declined, there are still hundreds of young people in the clan.
Lu Jiu rummaged through his storage ring and took out a palm-sized wooden carving shaped like a ferocious bird, which looked lifelike.
He tossed the small wooden carving into the air.
In an instant, a fierce cry resounded throughout the heavens and earth. The palm-sized ferocious bird grew larger in the wind and transformed into a ferocious bird with wingspans of hundreds of feet, circling above Wangyue City.
“This…this is the Demon Blood Heavenly Roc!”
Someone recognized him and exclaimed in surprise and shock.
Because the Demon Blood Sky Roc is infamous and was a powerful demon from ancient times that rivaled true gods!
Lu Jiu had slain countless demons and monsters, and his storage ring contained numerous demon corpses; this Demon Blood Sky Roc was just one of them.
Later, when he was trapped in the ancient ruins, he would casually create puppets when he was bored and occasionally use them as his mounts.
At the same time, Lu Jiu upgraded all the Qi Refining Realm puppets he had made, and now there are 199 Nascent Soul Realm puppets.
However, this time it wasn’t a funeral procession.
Therefore, all 199 Nascent Soul level puppets were clad in armor and wielded spears and weapons, serving as escorts for this mission.
The younger generation of the Lu family were all shocked and extremely excited.
He rode the Demon Blood Sky Roc, with 199 Nascent Soul puppets as his guards.
Such a lineup, such a grand display.
They’ve never even heard of it, let alone seen it!
On the head of the Demon Blood Sky Roc.
Lu Jiu stood with his hands behind his back, his expression calm and composed.
Behind him, on his left and right, stood Li Hanlu and Bai Su, one dressed in a magnificent purple robe and the other in a simple white dress.
As for Lu Changhe, he is now the most outstanding young member of the Lu family, riding on the broad back of the Demon Blood Sky Roc, surrounded by many other young members of the Lu family.
As for Lu Xingyun, she sat there all alone, and the younger generation of the Lu family all seemed somewhat afraid of and resistant to her.
“Master Lu, according to the information we’ve received, the Seven Killings Holy Sect has arrived at the entrance to the Ancient Demon Realm, led by the War Tiger Celestial God,” Li Hanlu said.
“The Seven Killings Holy Sect has quite a few deities.”
Lu Jiu smiled and said, “But your Yaochi Holy Land doesn’t even have a single True God. You’re not even as good as the mere Seven Kill Holy Sect. The name of Holy Land is a bit undeserved.”
Li Hanlu couldn’t refute these words, since in terms of foundation and strength, Yaochi Holy Land was indeed inferior to Seven Kill Holy Sect.
The main difference lies in whether there are true god-level powerhouses.
If the Yaochi Patriarch were still alive, even if the Seven Killings Holy Sect had two True Gods, the Yaochi Patriarch would not be at a disadvantage even if he were to fight two against one.
At the level of Celestial God-level experts, the Yaochi Holy Land is not much inferior to the Seven Killings Holy Sect.
However, Yaochi is now without its founder, so over the years, the Yaochi Holy Land has kept a low profile and has not easily become involved in the conflicts between various major forces.
During the journey.
Li Hanlu used the intelligence information she obtained through Yaochi to tell Lu Jiu about the situation in the Ancient Demon Secret Realm.
Aside from the War Tiger God of the Seven Killings Holy Sect, other powerful figures also arrived one after another.
Normally, the Celestial God-level experts of the Azure Realm rarely venture out, but now, due to the appearance of the Ancient Demon Secret Realm, several have already made their appearances.
The entrance to the Ancient Demon Realm is a huge lake, which is like a precious jade inlaid in the ancient and lush mountains and forests.
The lake is surrounded by mountains.
The various major powers that have arrived each occupy a mountain peak, each with a celestial deity presiding over them. Their divine might is vast, and divine beings and phantom images manifest, showcasing their divine power!
“Boom…”
A rumbling thunder came from the distant horizon, and a treasure ship flew in, its hull surrounded by lightning, its momentum astonishing, and its runes dazzling.
On the deck of the treasure ship, hundreds of figures stood in rows. Even before they got close, a powerful pressure swept over them, making it hard to breathe.
“The Ancient Qingshen Sect of the Southern Wilderness!”
Someone saw the flag on the treasure ship and exclaimed in surprise.
“The one in the lead seems to be Qing Shen Dao Zi. He has been cultivating for less than five hundred years and has already reached the peak of the sixth tribulation of the Nascent Soul stage. It is rumored that his combat power is comparable to that of a celestial god!”
“I didn’t expect even the Azure God Daoist to come. It seems the Ancient Demon Secret Realm is truly too attractive!”
“Who says otherwise? The Qing Shen Ancient Sect has a long history, existing since ancient times. Its first leader was one of the most senior ancient gods, even earlier than the one from the ancient Lu family!”
“Be careful what you say! The Qing Shen Ancient Sect absolutely forbids mentioning that person from the Lu family!”
Some people shut their mouths and dared not continue talking about it.
Ancient legend has it that the first patriarch of the Qing Shen Ancient Sect once used the power of a true god to hunt down the Lu family member.
Later, the Lu family member who became a true god, invincible throughout the ancient times, almost destroyed the Qing Shen Ancient Sect. It was only because the patriarch and old sect leader knelt down and begged for mercy that the Qing Shen Ancient Sect was not destroyed.
That period of history is an unbearable humiliation for the Qing Shen Ancient Sect.
Ever since that ancient human supreme being disappeared, anyone who dared to mention this matter was regarded as mocking and provoking by the Qing Shen Ancient Sect, and war was bound to break out, resulting in the deaths of countless people!
Later on, they even forbade anyone to talk about the ancient Lu family member, otherwise it would lead to their death!
There are also rumors that the old patriarch of the Qing Shen Ancient Sect is still alive and has already embarked on the path to immortality!
There is no doubt about it.
At this moment, the various forces gathered near the entrance to the Ancient Demon Realm are all vying for supremacy with the Azure God Ancient Sect in the highest position!
This is an ancient lineage that is more famous and has a more unfathomable foundation than the Seven Killings Holy Sect!
A moment later.
A massive shadow loomed over the sky, and an overwhelming, ferocious power descended, pressing down on the countless cultivators present. Their breath seemed to stop, and they felt as if they were about to vomit blood from the pressure in their chests!
Countless eyes looked up in that direction.
What they saw was a gigantic, ferocious bird with outstretched wings that blotted out the sky. Its terrifying and ferocious power was like that of a true god resurrected and descending, so much so that even the gods could not raise their heads!
