Collecting the corpse for the emperor, my cultivation base will skyrocket for ten thousand years!

Of all the items acquired this time, the True Phoenix Cauldron is undoubtedly the highest in terms of level and quality. In its complete state, the True Phoenix Cauldron is a treasure of the thirteen-seal ancient emperor level.

Once unleashed, it possesses the immense power to shatter the heavens and shake the celestial galaxy; however, Lin Wudao is not lacking in this power at present, as he can do the same with his own strength, or even with greater power.

In fact, what he valued most was the Abyss Demon Banner.

Although the current Abyss Demon Banner is inferior to the True Phoenix Cauldron in both level and quality, it has great potential.

Currently, the Abyss Demon Banner only contains eighteen Abyss Fiends of the Twelve-Seal Ancient Emperors, but given the opportunity, its level and quality can be improved to accommodate Abyss Fiends of the Thirteen Seals.

This demon banner is somewhat similar to the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls!
By continuously nurturing, imprisoning, or devouring more powerful beings, the abyssal evil spirits within can be sublimated and transformed, thus becoming even more terrifying and powerful.

He firmly believed that the Abyss Demon Banner had greater potential and power in his hands than it did in Tian Juezi's.

After carefully examining the True Phoenix Cauldron and the Abyss Demon Banner, Lin Wudao focused his attention on the map of the True Phoenix Ancient Tomb and the Abyss Demon Land.

The map of the True Phoenix Ancient Tomb shows its specific location in the Outer Demon Sea, outside the Primordial Demon Realm, in the area connecting with the sixth layer of the Abyss; moreover, the map exudes a strong abyssal aura, which is incomparable to the Primordial Demon Realm.

Therefore, Lin Wudao guessed that the True Phoenix Ancient Tomb should be the tomb of a powerful abyss expert, and it came from the sixth layer of the abyss.

Moreover, Tian Juezi is only a Twelve-Seal Ancient Emperor, yet he possesses so many valuable items, which clearly indicates that he has likely already visited the True Phoenix Ancient Tomb; these items were all obtained from the True Phoenix Ancient Tomb.

"It seems we need to find an opportunity to visit the Demon Sea beyond the Realm. This True Phoenix Ancient Tomb is clearly the burial place of a third-tier mythical ruler, an abyss powerhouse. Given Tian Juezi's abilities, he definitely cannot open it completely."

"Maybe there are other good things inside."

Lin Wudao secretly plotted in his mind.

The most important thing for a third-order mythical overlord is the mythical Dao Fruit within his body. If Tian Juezi had such a thing, he wouldn't still be the Twelve-Seal Ancient Emperor.

Regardless of the specifics of the True Phoenix Ancient Tomb, he planned to find an opportunity to visit it in person.

Besides the map of the True Phoenix Ancient Tomb, the last thing left was that pot of high-grade abyssal demon soil. This was the first time Lin Wudao had ever seen such a thing, and it was quite interesting.

【Name: Abyssal Demon Land】

[Rank: Mythical (High-level)]

[Description: Originating from the ancient realm of creation, this divine artifact is the inherited treasure of the True Phoenix Clan. Later, it fell into the abyss along with the True Phoenix Clan. It possesses boundless creative power, capable of nurturing all abyssal species and greatly enhancing their foundation and potential; for abyssal plants, it can shorten their growth cycle to one-tenth.]

[Effect: Increases the level of one's foundation, aptitude, and bloodline by one level, and increases the potential of one's destiny by one level. The ultimate state is a half-step ultimate mythical overlord.]

[Note: 1. This skill cannot be used by anyone other than a mythical ruler or a forbidden mythical demon god.]

[2. All ten portions of Abyssal Demon Soil must be collected to unleash its true power; currently, only one portion is available.]

3. The Abyssal Land has been completely corrupted by the Abyss and cannot be used by any species other than those from the Abyss.

……

"Tsk tsk, I never expected Tian Juezi to have such a good thing in his possession. What a pleasant surprise."

Looking at the information presented by the Abyss Demonic Soil, Lin Wudao was quite surprised. The effects of the Abyss Demonic Soil were far more magical and powerful than he had imagined.

Originally, he assumed that the Abyssal Demon Soil was just an ordinary thing used to cultivate plants in the abyss; he never expected that its origin would be so astonishing.

The key point is that it wasn't from the Abyss, but was brought to the Abyss by the True Phoenix Clan and later corrupted by the Abyss.

"The True Phoenix Clan is extraordinary just from its name, and it also lives in the Ancient Origin Realm, so its origins must be quite astonishing."

"Such an ancient and powerful race shouldn't have all fallen into the abyss, right? Or perhaps it was just one of its beings that fell into the abyss, and that person was the owner of the True Phoenix Ancient Tomb?"

Lin Wudao was currently unsure of the exact level of existence of the Ancient Origin Realm and the True Phoenix Clan, but judging from their names and the miraculous effects of the Abyss Demon Land, they were certainly extraordinary.

According to his guess, it must have been the owner of the True Phoenix Ancient Tomb who accidentally brought the divine object, the Abyss Demon Soil, into the abyss.

At this moment, he was even more curious about the identity of the owner of the True Phoenix Ancient Tomb; he really wanted to know who this person was.

Also.

The incredible effects of the Abyss Demon Soil greatly boosted Lin Wudao's spirits; under the most ideal conditions, he could use this divine object to elevate his foundation to the level of a half-step ultimate mythological ruler.

Although it cannot be compared with the true ultimate mythological ruler, it has surpassed the third-tier mythological ruler to a certain extent; it may seem like only a half-step improvement, but it is an unimaginable sublimation.

Even his true form in the human world only qualified him to challenge the Great Tribulation of the Ruler after cultivating the five supreme methods.

In comparison, the effects of the Abyss Demonic Soil are already incredibly powerful; if word gets out, it will definitely cause a huge uproar in the Abyss.

Moreover, Lin Wudao was certain that Tian Juezi was completely unaware of the effects of the Abyss Demon Soil, and that the remaining Abyss Demon Soil was hidden inside the True Phoenix Ancient Tomb in the Outer Demon Sea.

Think of this.

Lin Wudao became even more determined to explore the True Phoenix Ancient Tomb.

After taking stock of all his gains, he contentedly stored everything into his system space; he then prepared to use the resources he had obtained from Zhao Longxiang, Tian Juezi, and the others to further enhance his own strength.

thump~
However, at that moment, a loud bell suddenly rang out from outside the Yuan Tian Great World, even crossing the barrier between worlds; moreover, the bell sounded sharp and urgent, as if something big had happened in the Mo Tian Holy Land.

Out of curiosity, Lin Wudao opened the door and walked out of the Demon Palace; he happened to run into Li Hanchuan who was hurrying towards him.

"What happened at the Sky Tower Holy Land?"

He asked curiously.

Why is the Holy Land in such a hurry? Could it be that other demonic forces have attacked?
"Holy Son, we have just received news from the Demon Kingdom that the Ninth Great War between the Ancient Demon Realm and the Ancient Land of Gods and Demons has begun."

"The two sides have already started fighting at the Fallen Soul Abyss on the border."

"The Ninth War Between Gods and Demons has begun. The Demon Kingdom is recruiting troops from its forces and people within the Demon Realm to participate in the war immediately."

"At this moment, the envoy of the Demon Kingdom has arrived at the Sky-Piercing Holy Land and read out the Demon Emperor's decree, ordering half of his disciples and powerful figures to be summoned within three days and immediately go to the Fallen Soul Abyss on the border without delay."

"The Holy Lord and the elders are currently gathering everyone to discuss this matter..."

Li Hanchuan reported respectfully.

His expression and face appeared extremely serious and solemn, with even a strong sense of worry and unease in his eyes.

Since time immemorial, the Ancient Demon Realm and the Ancient Land of Gods and Demons have waged eight wars of gods and demons, each ending in devastation and suffering. Less than one in ten thousand people have survived these wars.

The war between gods and demons has begun, and as a titled master of the Great Dao in the Demon Realm, Li Hanchuan is certain to participate; he also worries that he might not return once he goes. Has the ninth war between gods and demons started?

Upon hearing this news, Lin Wudao was slightly shocked. He had already made plans to gather the army of the Green Mountain Divine Kingdom and attack the Origin Immortal Realm in two months.

However, plans cannot keep up with changes!

To his surprise, the Ninth War of Gods and Demons broke out ahead of schedule, and not because of the Green Mountain Divine Kingdom, but according to the established trend and development, it was a fierce battle between the Primordial Demon Realm and the Ancient Land of Gods and Demons.

"The war between gods and demons will surely end in a terrible defeat; perhaps I can wait until they are both severely weakened before reaping the benefits."

"However, before that, we still need to find out the situation and strength of the Ancient Demon Realm and the Ancient Land of Gods and Demons before we can make a move."

"Let's go take a look!"

Having made up his mind, Lin Wudao did not hesitate or dawdle at all, and immediately rode a beam of demonic light away from the Yuan Tian Great World.

When he reappeared, he had already arrived at the Sky Tower.

At this very moment, as news of the outbreak of the Ninth War between Gods and Demons spread, the entire Honggu Demon Realm was shaken. Above and below the Sky Tower, numerous disciples of the Holy Land had already gathered.

They all donned their precious armor, took out their magical treasures and weapons, and were ready to rush to the battlefield at any time.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere inside the Sky Tower was incredibly heavy; both the Holy Lord Yun Tianshu and the elders present all frowned deeply, their eyes filled with deep worry and unease.

Sighs echoed one after another...

"Young friend Mo Tian has arrived. Please find a seat."

Upon seeing Lin Wudao arrive, Yun Tianshu gave him a brief greeting, then took a deep breath and got straight to the point.

"According to the decree conveyed by the Demon Kingdom, our Sky-Piercing Holy Land needs to dispatch ten Twelve Ancient Emperors of the Twelve Seals. All those who hold the title of Great Dao, regardless of their cultivation level, must participate in the war between gods and demons."

"This battle concerns the life and death of my Demon Realm. It is a responsibility that all beings in the Demon Realm should share, and my Sky-Piercing Holy Land is no exception."

“Apart from the ten ancient emperors with twelve seals and those who have been granted titles on the Great Dao, two-thirds of all disciples above the level of Immortal Emperor will also be mobilized.”

"As the Holy Lord of the Sky-Piercing Holy Land, it is my duty to participate in the war between gods and demons. Choose nine of you twelve."

"Time is of the essence, and there is no time for us to discuss and weigh the pros and cons carefully. Starting with Elder Mo Panshan, the next eight ranked individuals will all participate in the God-Demon War."

At this moment, Yun Tianshu fully demonstrated the majesty and authority of the Holy Land Lord, giving no chance for the crowd to argue, and directly set the final result.

Mo Panshan and the others were prepared for this, so they did not resist or object to the result announced by Yun Tianshu.

The Honggu Demon Kingdom rules the entire Demon Realm. A decree issued by the Demon Emperor is something that their mere Motian Holy Land cannot contend with; especially since this is a war between gods and demons, there is absolutely no room for negotiation.

After announcing the list of participants, Yun Tianshu turned his gaze to Lin Wudao, who was standing to the side: "Young friend Mo Tian, ​​the Ninth War of Gods and Demons has broken out, and you may not be able to avoid participating."

"With your strength, you should be fine on the battlefield of gods and demons, as long as you don't encounter any of the powerful ancient emperors of the Thirteen Seals of the Ancient Land of Gods and Demons."

"At that time, you will follow us to the side of the Demon Lord of Time in the Demon Kingdom; if you can make great contributions on the battlefield between gods and demons, it will not be difficult for you to be enfeoffed as a king."

Yun Tianshu forced a smile and comforted him.

Upon hearing this, Lin Wudao nodded solemnly: "With the nation in peril, we cultivators should naturally step forward without hesitation!"

"However, I am new here and do not know what the war between gods and demons is, who the enemy is, or who the powerful figures on both sides are."

"Please tell me about it, Your Majesty..."

Taking this opportunity, Lin Wudao felt that he might be able to find out the true situation and details of the Primordial Demon Realm and the Ancient Land of Gods and Demons.

Yun Tianshu did not hide anything from the confusion he raised, but explained it in detail and seriously: "The war between gods and demons can be traced back to the distant period when the Honggu Demon Realm was first born. The specific cause of the war can no longer be traced or verified."

"The two sides in the war between gods and demons are the ancient demon realm led by the demon kingdom, and the enemy is the ancient land of gods and demons opposite the Fallen Soul Abyss."

"So far, the war between gods and demons has been fought eight times, and now it is the ninth."

"The Ancient Land of Gods and Demons is a vast world that has not been eroded or polluted by the abyss. Many ancient immortal races live there, with the Primordial Immortal Race as the leader, who have established a unified order."

"We call it the Primordial Immortal Kingdom!"

"The foundation and strength of the Primordial Immortal Kingdom have always been very powerful. According to the intelligence we have learned before, there are at least six ancient emperors with the thirteen seals."

"Moreover, we have always suspected that there may be a mysterious force backing and providing assistance behind the Primordial Immortal Kingdom; this war between gods and demons was also initiated by the Primordial Immortal Kingdom."

"As for our Honggu Demon Realm, it's pretty much the same. There are seven powerhouses at the level of the Thirteen Ancient Emperors. One of them is responsible for guarding the Demon Sea outside the realm, the Demon Emperor of the Demon Kingdom is stationed in the center of the Demon Kingdom, and the remaining five have all been dispatched to the God-Demon Battlefield."

"The Demon Lord of Time that I told you about before is one of the Thirteen Seal Ancient Emperors. He cultivates the Great Dao of Time; among the Thirteen Seal Ancient Emperors, his strength is absolutely among the top."

……

Yun Tianshu spoke in detail, and Lin Wudao listened attentively.

Through Yun Tianshu's narration, he gained a general understanding of the situation in the Honggu Demon Realm and the Ancient Land of Gods and Demons.

"The Primordial Demon Realm alone has seven Ancient Emperors with Thirteen Seals, and there must be quite a few in the Ancient Land of Gods and Demons as well; moreover, the Ancient Land of Gods and Demons is supported by a mysterious force?"

"So what exactly was their purpose in launching the war between gods and demons?"

Many mysteries troubled Lin Wudao.

To understand these things, perhaps only after completely conquering the Ancient Demon Realm and the Ancient Land of Gods and Demons can we learn the truth.

"Does anyone have any further questions? If not, then it's decided."

"Mo Panshan, issue an announcement immediately: we will depart for Fallen Soul Abyss on time in two days; anyone who is negligent or negligent will be executed."

"Yes, Holy Lord!"

Mo Panshan respectfully responded and then left the Sky Tower to convey the imperial decree.

……

Two days passed by in a flash.

After making preparations at top speed, Yun Tianshu led the million disciples of the Sky-Piercing Holy Land, along with a group of elders, and marched aggressively towards the battlefield of gods and demons. (End of Chapter)
