Demoness who covers the sky, please help me practice

Jiang Yun was taken aback when he heard the question from the Netherworld Dao Ancestor. But after he came to his senses, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the Netherworld Dao Ancestor with a hint of anger.

He had already understood the intentions of the Netherworld Dao Ancestor. He clearly wanted to force him to the heavens. You must know that the bloody battle there had reached an unimaginable level. Otherwise, the Immortal Emperor would not have personally descended the scriptures as a temptation.

One can imagine what would happen if this happened in the heavens.

Especially considering Jiang Yun's current situation, it's impossible for the Netherworld Dao Ancestor not to know that his primordial spirit has encountered a major problem.

Jiang Yun is now no less skilled in close combat than any Dao Ancestor, but when it comes to the strength of his soul and primordial spirit, he is far inferior.

In this situation, what would happen upon entering the realm above Heaven is self-evident.

How sinister was the Netherworld Dao Ancestor's intentions!
"Dao Yuan's primordial spirit is in trouble, there's a big problem. Even if this sacrificial ceremony ends, I'm afraid he won't be able to participate in the battle."

To Mingyu's surprise, before Daoyuan could refute him, Houming spoke up directly.

Now that Hou Ming has fully recovered and even made some progress in his cultivation, even the Netherworld Dao Ancestor cannot push him too far.

He looked at Hou Ming, remaining silent for a long time, as if he hadn't expected Hou Ming to speak like that. Then, after a long while, he looked at the other Dao Ancestors around him:
"Then, is there anyone else willing to go?"

His gaze swept over the group of Dao Ancestors, but they had already recovered from their initial excitement. They all knew how dangerous this journey was, so they all remained silent.

The Immortal Emperor Scripture is indeed good; perhaps it truly contains the secret to advancing to the Immortal Emperor realm, but the prerequisite is that you must survive!
As the Desolate Emperor advanced to the Sacrifice Dao Realm and marched towards the ancestral land of the Calamity Plateau, the Strange Immortal Emperor intercepted the Willow God, causing the heavens and all worlds to boil over, and the real great war had begun.

It could even be said that the end of this sacrificial ceremony is already in its countdown, and the great battle will only become more and more brutal each day. In the end, perhaps when the sacrificial ceremony ends, the entire heavens will be covered in blood.

This situation has happened before, so leaving the ancient underworld inevitably means great risks, after all, the Battle of Sacrifice was extremely brutal.

Even if the Dao Ancestor is usually high and mighty, when he really goes to the heavens above, to the land abandoned by heaven, he probably won't be much better off. In such a fierce battle, what good is a real Immortal Emperor's scripture?

If everyone were a figure like the Desolate Emperor, born to cultivate the Dao and destined for tribulation, with unparalleled talent throughout the ages, the stronger the enemy, the more he could improve, carving out a path to survival in the bloody battle.
Seeing that all the Dao Ancestors were silent, the Netherworld Dao Ancestor was somewhat embarrassed. He coldly looked at the group of Dao Ancestors:
"If this continues, not a single Dao Ancestor from my Ancient Underworld has responded to the Immortal Emperor's decree? What will become of the Ancient Underworld in our ancestral land if this continues?"

He was indeed somewhat angry. Unlike Dao Yuan and Hou Ming, the Ancestral Land clearly knew that he was the one in charge of the Ancient Underworld. In this situation, without Dao Ancestor to fight, where would his face as the person in charge of the Ancient Underworld be?

In this situation, the best option would of course be for him, the Dao Ancestor of the Underworld, to take the lead and lead the Dao Ancestors of the Ancient Underworld to participate in the battle. But then again, the Dao Ancestor of the Underworld clearly knew just how fierce the battle in the Land of Abandoned Heaven had become.

He has secret channels to contact the ancestral land, so he naturally knows what kind of pressure the ancestral land is currently under.

He simply wanted other Dao Ancestors to fight, rather than fighting himself.

In the end, it was Qingyun and Fengshan, the two Dao Ancestors, who seemed unable to withstand the gaze of the Underworld Dao Ancestor, or perhaps they truly wanted to gamble on the chance of becoming an Immortal Emperor, and so they both spoke up, forcing themselves to say:

"In that case, I am willing to go!"

"I'm willing too. I wonder if there are any other fellow cultivators who would like to join us?"

These two Dao Ancestors were staunch supporters of the Netherworld Dao Ancestor; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to follow the Blood River Dao Ancestor in doing such despicable things.

They thought that by speaking up, they might provoke other Dao Ancestors to join in, but all the Dao Ancestors present were cunning and shrewd, so even though the two Dao Ancestors took the lead, the others did not respond.

The scene became extremely awkward, and even the two Dao Ancestors, Qingyun and Fengshan, were starting to regret their actions, feeling that they shouldn't have insisted on stepping forward.

"If only two people are willing to make the trip, it makes people underestimate our ancient underworld."

The Netherworld Dao Ancestor's gaze turned coldly to Jiang Yun again. Just when Jiang Yun thought he would once again use words to force him to go to the Heavenly Forsaken Land to participate in the battle, unexpectedly, he changed the subject:
"Blood River has been in your hands for so many years. No matter what terrible mistakes you made back then, shouldn't you have atoned by now?"

"Now is the time when we need people. No one is willing to go to the heavens above, to the land forsaken by the heavens. So why don't we let him go?"

Jiang Yun hesitated for a moment. He hadn't expected the Netherworld Dao Ancestor to mention the Blood River. If the other party hadn't mentioned it, he would probably have forgotten about this unlucky fellow he had left in the stone jar.

He was somewhat reluctant, after all, he could control Blood River at any time, but for the moment, he couldn't find any other words to say.

Moreover, there's no guarantee what else the Netherworld Dao Ancestor might say. Although his soul and primordial spirit have been repaired under the nourishment of the Soul River, he hasn't fully recovered to his peak strength yet.

Not to mention that mysterious and elusive state, in which case it is not the right time to clash with the Netherworld Dao Ancestor or even turn against him directly.

In addition, Jiang Yun had a deep worry in his heart: with the Desolate Emperor advancing to the Sacrifice Dao realm and officially attacking the ancestral land, this Sacrifice Yuan was coming to an end.

Knowing history well, he was well aware that this time, all the turmoil could not be completely ended. In the end, even on the Bloodstained Plateau of the Desolate Heavenly Capital, it was Liu Shen who carried him out, each step leaving a bloody mark and each step a sacrificial offering.

"can."

After a moment of silence, Jiang Yun released the Blood River Dao Ancestor, and soon he learned what had happened. At this point, he naturally did not want to go.

He had been tormented by Jiang Yun for so many years, and even his Dao Ancestor origin had been severely damaged. Under such circumstances, entering the Heavenly Realm and fighting to the death in the Land of Abandoned Heaven would be no different from sending himself to his death.

But when he saw the looks in Dao Yuan's and Hou Ming's eyes, and then looked at the Netherworld Dao Ancestor who was also looking at him coldly, he couldn't help but shiver and realize that he had no choice but to accept it.

In the end, the Blood River Dao Ancestor, the Azure Cloud Dao Ancestor, and the Wind Mountain Dao Ancestor departed with the Immortal Emperor's decree, while the other Dao Ancestors returned to their respective Dao Temples.

For a moment, the ancient underworld fell silent again, and Jiang Yun returned to his dojo to continue drawing the waters of the Soul River to nourish his primordial spirit.

Time flows on, and a thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye. The turmoil outside the ancient underworld has not subsided but has instead intensified. Small-scale conflicts have begun in the heavens, and under the leadership of the Dao Ancestor, a great purge of the henchmen of the four ancient origin lands has commenced.

Even Jiang Yun was unaware of these things before. He thought that only his Eight Paths of Reincarnation had successfully infiltrated the great worlds near the heavens and the myriad realms through the cycle of reincarnation.

Unexpectedly, while he was taking action, the Soul River, the Four Extremes Floating Soil, and even the Dao Ancestor of the Heavenly Emperor's Burial Pit were all making arrangements in secret.

They lured a large number of powerful individuals to secretly join the strange side by using the prestige of the ancient land of origin, or by offering further advancement in their cultivation, or by providing protection during the grand sacrifice.

Among them were even Daoist patriarchs.

However, these beings who secretly pledged allegiance to the four ancient lands of origin never dreamed that the Desolate Emperor would forcefully advance to the Sacrifice Dao realm, officially initiating a great purge of the strange lineage.

The four ancient origin sites shrank immediately and disappeared without a trace.

Having come into contact with the four ancient origin lands in the past, they inevitably became tainted with the aura of the strange race, leaving indelible marks. Even if they tried to conceal them, how could they easily hide them?

Therefore, over the next ten thousand years, these people were found and killed one after another. Even those who had not yet been exposed began to feel uneasy, fearing that one day they would be targeted for retribution.

This sentiment intensified, especially after it was discovered that the Great Virtue Ancestor had been secretly connected with the Ancestor of the Four Extremes Floating Land and was ready to defect to them at any time.

Not to mention, after that, the Three Tribulation Sparrow Clan, which had an exceptionally deep foundation in the heavens, was also discovered to have secretly colluded with many other races and had already established numerous connections with the Soul River. After that, this once incomparably powerful race was directly annihilated.

The Three Tribulations Sparrow Ancestor was a true Dao Ancestor. On that day, disregarding his own descendants who were suffering from calamity, he spread his wings and flew high, creating boundless waves in the sacrificial sea. However, just when he thought he could escape the calamity, a sudden change occurred.

As if provoked, Immortal Emperor Luo Tian, ​​who rarely made a move in the heavens in the past, directly attacked, striking out with a palm across the sacrificial sea.

This single palm strike transcended time and space, even stirring up boundless waves within the sacrificial sea. Beneath the crimson waves, the Three Tribulations Sparrow Ancestor frantically tried to dodge, even at the cost of splitting his own primordial spirit, hoping for a glimmer of hope in the future.

However, all of this was useless in the face of the Immortal Emperor's attack. Under that palm strike, the flesh and blood of the Three Tribulations Sparrow Ancestor exploded, and in the end, not even his soul could escape.

This scene profoundly shocked those races that secretly colluded with the Three Tribulations Sparrow, and they all fell silent.

However, what these races did not expect was that even after the Three Tribulation Sparrow Ancestor was personally killed by the Immortal Emperor, and most of the Three Tribulation Sparrow clan was slaughtered, with only some with shallow cultivation escaping into the Ancient Land of Origin, the matter was not over yet.

Not only did it not end, the Great Purge intensified. Later, any race suspected of being related to the ancient lands of origin in the four directions, whether from the heavens or from various worlds, and regardless of whether a Dao Ancestor was present, was subjected to a brutal purge.

Ultimately, those races that had secretly betrayed each other united and gathered in a certain great world. Then, the Dao Ancestor personally performed a ritual to try to contact the ancient lands of origin in all directions.

Ultimately, they received a response from the Four Extremes Floating Soil and the River of Souls, and such an action could not possibly be kept secret from the Dao Ancestors of all ages in the heavens.

Ultimately, under the leadership of the Primordial Dao Ancestor, the Dao Ancestors of all ages in the heavens forcefully broke through this great world and besieged these traitors.

At the critical moment, Dao Ancestors appeared on both the Four Extremes Floating Land and the Soul River to help these traitors.

Ultimately, after suffering enormous casualties, only a very small number of these traitorous races were fortunate enough to enter the Four Extremes Floating Land and the Soul River, while the vast majority, along with the Dao Ancestor who performed the act, were directly and forcefully killed.

After this, the heavens and the earth were at peace for a while, but soon, voices emerged again, suggesting that the cycle of reincarnation and the eight paths of reincarnation should be the primary targets, along with the ancient underworld.

After thoroughly purging their internal affairs, the Dao Ancestors of the Heavenly Realms were filled with confidence. In addition, good news kept coming from the heavens, including the existence of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, which gave them the confidence to take action against the ancient lands of origin in all directions.

Of course, they weren't crazy enough to attack the four ancient origin sites simultaneously. They also knew that the four ancient origin sites had their own conflicts, and that attacking one at a time was not the right approach.

Other ancient origin sites might not react in any way, so a plan was devised to launch a focused attack on one of the ancient origin sites.

Clearly, under the deliberate targeting of certain voices, especially under the leadership of the Myriad Star Quasi-Dao Ancestor who has recovered and even made further progress, and is about to break through to the Dao Ancestor realm, the Eight Paths of Reincarnation and the Ancient Underworld have become the targets of everyone's criticism.

Although the Ancient Underworld had reduced its power, it still had reincarnation slaves within it. Soon, the entire Eight Paths of Reincarnation, including the Ancient Underworld, learned of this matter.

"So, it's highly likely that all the realms of the heavens will launch an attack on the ancient underworld next?"

Upon learning this news, Jiang Yun put away the remaining half of the Soul River Water in his hand, suppressed his anger, and rushed to Houming's dojo.

On the one hand, he needed to discuss the next steps with Houming because of this news; on the other hand, it was time for their fellow practitioners to cultivate together again.

"According to the intelligence, that's roughly the case."

A rare look of solemnity appeared on Hou Ming's usually cold and beautiful face. She knew clearly that although most of the Dao Ancestors of the various worlds were newly born from this sacrificial era, their numbers were not small.

The Dao ancestors in the ancient underworld have supported the heavens and abandoned the land. There are not many left in the ancient underworld today.

Although she possessed profound knowledge and absolute confidence in the ancient underworld, the thought that two Immortal Emperors were following behind the Heavenly Realms made her realize that things were getting complicated.

"Why choose the ancient underworld? We've already tried our best to shrink back, how could we be locked on so easily?"

Jiang Yun was somewhat puzzled. Although he had been nourishing his soul and primordial spirit with the water of the Soul River in his own dojo, he was not completely unaware of the outside world.

In his view, compared to the low-key Ancient Underworld, the relatively high-profile Soul River and the Four Extremes Floating Land should be the primary targets of the attacks of the Dao Ancestors of all ages in the heavens!

Especially the River of Souls; according to his previous memories, a great battle erupted in the River of Souls just as this sacrificial ceremony was about to end. (End of Chapter)
