Cangling Immortal Clan

Ye Linyuan returned to the holy land of the human race and was preparing to go to the spirit race to seek their supreme treasure.

Suddenly, a look of surprise appeared on his face as he looked outside the human race's holy land, a hint of solemnity in his eyes.

The two Dao Ancestors, Wan Yao and Wan Ling, also sensed something. Wan Ling Dao Ancestor looked coldly at the distance and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"My two senior brothers, why be so formal?"

A figure slowly appeared in the direction the three were looking.

The newcomer was none other than the Celestial Ancestor. Ignoring the gazes of the two Dao Ancestors, he calmly looked at Ye Linyuan and said, "Fellow Daoist, your cultivation has progressed quite rapidly."

"Your Excellency's private visit here is surely not to congratulate me, is it?"

Ye Linyuan answered calmly, his eyes showing neither sorrow nor joy. Many thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, but he quickly guessed what it was.

As expected, the Celestial Ancestor smiled slightly and said bluntly, "You have a very good relationship with the Celestial Demon Saint Son. Would you like to bring him back with me?"

"Oh?"

Ye Linyuan's eyes turned cold, knowing what the Celestial Ancestor was worried about.

Back then, when a Dao Ancestor of the Celestial Race was killed, the true form of Mo Yuan Demon Lord obtained the Celestial Origin and cultivated to the level of Perfect Refinement of Emptiness.

Over the years, the Primordial Demon Ancestor has been trying to intervene and merge the Demon Lord Mo Yuan's Demon Body with him, and what the Primordial Demon Ancestor wants is a fusion with the Demon Body as the dominant force.

Although this is extremely difficult, millions of years have passed after all. With the methods of the Heavenly Demon Ancestor, if this drags on any longer, he will probably find a way to control the Heavenly Demon body sooner or later.

If this succeeds, the Primordial Demon Ancestor may find a way to perfectly devour the Primordial Celestial Ancestor and break through to the Great Ascension Immortal Venerable realm.

Thinking of this, Ye Linyuan calmly said, "Are you scared?"

"Afraid?" The Celestial Ancestor sneered, then said indifferently, "Looking across the Eternal Heaven Realm, no one can frighten me. It's just that the Celestial Demon Saint Son shouldn't have stayed in the Celestial Demon Clan."

"Fellow Daoist, do you not wish to save that Daoist Mo Yuan?"

Ye Linyuan smiled and then said calmly, "I want the fragments of the Great Dao True Explanation from the Celestial Race and the Celestial Demon Race."

The Celestial Ancestor's pupils narrowed instantly, and then he coldly said, "I can give you the fragments of the Celestial Race's Great Dao True Explanation, but I am not confident that I can take back the portion belonging to the Celestial Demon Race."

"You should know that if you and I invade the Nine Nether Demon Realm, we will become the target of everyone's attacks. How can we possibly have the strength to conquer the Heavenly Demon Treasury?"

"That's something you should consider." Ye Linyuan remained unmoved, then said calmly, "But there's one thing I have to tell you: the Nine Nether Demon Emperor will recover within three million years at the latest."

"If we miss this opportunity, even if we join forces, we will not be able to invade the Nine Nether Demon Realm."

Having said all he wanted to say, Ye Linyuan stood up and flicked his sleeves, initially adopting a gesture of seeing the guest off.

A hint of coldness flashed in the eyes of the Heavenly Ancestor, but after a moment he suppressed his killing intent and said, "In that case, a hundred years from now, let's fight our way into the Nine Nether Demon Realm together."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Celestial Ancestor rose and disappeared into the endless void.

After the Celestial Ancestor departed, the Dao Ancestor of Myriad Spirits couldn't help but speak up, saying, "Tai Hong is ruthless in achieving his goals. Do we really want to cooperate with him?"

Ye Linyuan took a deep breath and then said, "I am determined to obtain the Great Dao True Explanation. Once I miss this opportunity, I'm afraid it will be very difficult for me to reclaim the share of the Heavenly Demon Clan once the Nine Nether Demon Emperor recovers from his injuries."

"Moreover, I have had a long-standing friendship with Mo Yuan Demon Lord, and I cannot allow him to be devoured by the Heavenly Demon Body."

Upon hearing this, Dao Ancestor Wanyao sighed slightly and then said, "If Mo Yuan is devoured by the Heavenly Demon Body, it may cause Tai Hong and Tai Meng to completely merge into one."

"When he advances to the Great Ascension Immortal Venerable realm, it will not be a good thing for our human race. We can take this opportunity to interrupt Tai Meng's plans."

Upon hearing this, Dao Ancestor Wanyao made up his mind and said, "Since we are going to fight, then this battle must be fought thoroughly."

"When we make our move, we will send messages to the Xuanwu and Qilin clans, asking them to come to our aid at the crucial moment."

Ye Linyuan nodded, then said, "Let's take this opportunity to see the strength of the top ten races."

"..."

A century has passed in the blink of an eye, and the appointed day has arrived.

On this day, outside the Nine Nether Demon Realm, Ye Linyuan gathered with the two Dao Ancestors and finally awaited the arrival of the Celestial Race.

Nine Dao Ancestors at the Integration Stage arrived at once from the Celestial Race. Not only did the Celestial Ancestor himself arrive, but even Tianyuan Wujiu, a Dao Ancestor who had just broken through to the middle stage of Integration, was present.

"Only three humans have come?"

The Celestial Ancestor spoke, his gaze turning cold.

Ye Linyuan remained calm and said indifferently, "The strength of the early stage of the Integration Realm is ultimately lacking. If I were to perish in the Nine Nether Demon Realm because of me, I would be afraid I would be letting down the entire human race."

The Celestial Ancestor did not speak, but simply took out a strange stone with a flick of his sleeve and said, "You should know the effects of this item. Stand beside me and do not stray too far."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Celestial Ancestor activated the strange stone, manifesting countless chaotic mists that shrouded everyone.

Upon seeing this, Ye Linyuan frowned slightly. This treasure was the Chaos Stone, a rare artifact of chaos, which the Immortal Clan obtained by slaying a chaotic beast.

The chaotic mist emitted by this object can obscure the secrets of heaven and prevent others from calculating or sensing it; it was once one of the most precious treasures of the human race.

Unfortunately, the human race later split, and this item was taken away by the Celestial Ancestor.

The Nine Netherworld Demon Realm is very different from the Eternal Heaven Realm. As cultivators who absorb spiritual energy for cultivation, their auras are very different from those of the cultivators here, and they are easily detected when they enter the Nine Netherworld Demon Realm.

Ye Linyuan had originally planned to use the Chaos Dao to cover for everyone, but now that he had the Chaos Stone, it saved him a lot of trouble.

However, Ye Linyuan did not go in immediately, but instead asked, "Where are the things?"

"for you."

With a flick of his sleeve, the Celestial Ancestor handed over the incomplete pages of the Great Dao True Explanation to Ye Linyuan.

Seeing this, Ye Linyuan nodded to the two Dao Ancestors and stepped into the chaotic mist together.

The group entered the chaotic mist and silently infiltrated the Nine Nether Demon Realm, unknowingly arriving at the Heavenly Demon Holy Land.

As the training ground of the Heavenly Demon Clan, the Heavenly Demon Holy Land is a Nine Nether Turbid Vein and a seventh-grade supreme Heavenly Demon Array.

Even though the turbid energy is not suitable for setting up an array, this array is not something that an invincible Dao Ancestor can easily break through.

Ye Linyuan understood this and immediately said, "This Heavenly Demon Formation is unbreakable. Even if we join forces, I'm afraid it will be difficult to break it."

"Since I've decided to take action, I've naturally prepared my methods."

The Celestial Ancestor spoke confidently, then looked at Ye Linyuan and said, "But once we expose our aura, the Demon Emperors of the various races in the Nine Nether Demon Realm will probably come to kill us in a very short time."

“I can handle that brat Tai Meng myself, but I need you as the main force to hold off the powerful figures from the Nine Nether Demon Realm.”

Ye Linyuan nodded. The demons of the Nine Nether Demon Realm were extremely powerful. Without Ye Linyuan, the invincible Dao Ancestor, guarding them, the others would have been unable to break through after their early to mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivation was exposed. Thinking of this, Ye Linyuan calmly said, "Once we anger the Nine Nether Demon Realm, we will likely be hunted down. Have you prepared a backup plan?"

"Don't worry, the various races of the Eternal Heaven Realm will not ignore us. We only need to escape from the Nine Nether Demon Realm to be safe."

The Celestial Ancestor spoke, then took out an ancient talisman from his sleeve, solemnly displaying it.

Upon seeing the ancient talisman, the expression of the Myriad Spirits Dao Ancestor changed drastically. He exclaimed, "The Heavenly Blessing Ancient Talisman! This thing is actually in your hands!"

Ye Linyuan frowned slightly, and quickly understood the origin of this item.

This Heavenly Prosperity Ancient Talisman is one of the treasures left to the human race by the Immortal Venerable of Longevity. It is a supreme treasure ancient talisman of the near-eighth level. It was lost in that great chaos, but unexpectedly it was taken away by the Celestial Ancestor.

"Although this Heavenly Dew Ancient Talisman is not good at killing, it is best at breaking formations. Breaking this Heavenly Demon Formation will be a piece of cake."

The Celestial Ancestor sneered, then flicked his sleeve and unleashed the talisman. Instantly, a world-destroying power surged through the void, striking the Heavenly Demon Formation.

Faced with such an attack, the Heavenly Demon Formation activated on its own instantly, transforming into a sky-covering phantom of a Heavenly Demon to defend itself, but it was completely broken through in an instant.

"Tai Hong, how dare you!"

Upon realizing that the great formation had been broken, the Heavenly Demon Ancestor instantly sprang into action, manifesting a Nine Heavens Demon Blade that slashed towards the crowd.

The Celestial Ancestor sneered as he activated the Heavenly Dao Ancient Sword to defend himself, then looked at Ye Linyuan and said, "Proceed according to plan."

"Do it."

In an instant, everyone took action and charged towards the Heavenly Demon Holy Land.

At that instant, heroes rose up from within the Heavenly Demon Holy Land, with seven or eight fusion-level demon emperors taking to the air in an attempt to stop Ye Linyuan from unleashing his power.

Unfortunately, these people were no match for the crowd. With the help of Wanling Daozu and others, they were instantly suppressed.

Ye Linyuan, on the other hand, forcefully activated the Hand of Myriad Paths, instantly blasting away the late-stage Fusion Realm Demon Emperor who was blocking the way at the front.

Having severely injured his powerful enemy with a single move, Ye Linyuan disregarded the need to eliminate all his enemies and instantly stormed into the Heavenly Demon Forbidden Land to bring out the true form of Daoist Moyuan.

He then stormed into the treasure vault and instantly uprooted the Heavenly Demon Clan's treasury.

"stop!"

Seeing Ye Linyuan take away the true form of Mo Yuan Demon Lord and the Treasure Pavilion, the Heavenly Demon Ancestor immediately revealed an extremely furious expression and was about to unleash his full power to stop Ye Linyuan.

Unfortunately, he was entangled by the Heavenly Demon Ancestor and had no chance to escape.

"go!"

Having achieved their goal, Ye Linyuan did not linger and led everyone to fight their way out of the Nine Nether Demon Realm.

"Now that you're here, why rush to leave?"

At that very instant, the sky before Ye Linyuan cracked open, and then a world-destroying battle halberd, carrying the power to shatter the void, slashed down.

Ye Linyuan's eyes turned slightly cold, and with a flick of his sleeve, he unleashed a fist of ten thousand paths, instantly sending the world-destroying battle halberd flying backward.

But at that very instant, countless battle blades pierced through the void from the depths of space.

Eighteen weapons, including swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks, pierced the sky, each a world-destroying demonic weapon of unparalleled power.

"boom--"

After the instantaneous collision, Ye Linyuan stopped and looked into the depths of the void with a somewhat cold expression.

A world-destroying Asura with eighteen arms on its back appeared in the sky, and an invincible killing power that shook the ages had locked onto it.

"The Asura Demon Lord".

Ye Linyuan spoke calmly, a hint of admiration in his eyes.

This person was none other than the Lord of the Asura Demon Clan, the number one person below the Invincible Dao Ancestor, the third strongest in the Nine Nether Demon Realm, and the number one demon general under the Nine Nether Demon Emperor—the Asura Demon Lord.

As the strongest Perfected Fusion Realm cultivator, the Asura Demon Lord possessed formidable combat power that shook the heavens. His greatest achievement was defeating two Perfected Fusion Realm cultivators working together, and he even withstood a thousand attacks from the Ancient Demon God without being defeated.

It should be noted that those who have reached the Perfected Integration stage are all incredibly talented and invincible geniuses. Each of them is the strongest person of their race, so the difference in strength between them is not significant.

The fact that the Asura Demon Lord could fight two opponents at once shows that his combat power is absolutely unprecedented.

Fortunately, the Asura Demon Lord did not master any combat-type Dao techniques; otherwise, given his invincible combat power, he could have directly become one of the strongest invincible Dao Ancestors.

"Your strength is not weak, but it is far from enough to stop me."

Ye Linyuan spoke calmly, a hint of indifference flashing in his eyes.

At that very instant, several cracks appeared in the void once more, and four or five figures, whose power shook the heavens, appeared one after another.

"What if we join them?"

In an instant, several supreme demon emperors who had reached the perfect state of fusion appeared, including the Lord of Flame Demon, the Supreme Demon Emperor, the Ancestor of the Nine Nether Demon Hound, and others.

Before Ye Linyuan could speak, they instantly unleashed their invincible divine powers and charged towards him.

But Ye Linyuan did not retreat even half a step. He raised his palm and sent the Flame Demon Lord flying backward. He punched the Tai Cang Demon Emperor, who was flying through the air, and fought his way out of the encirclement of the heroes.

"This person's strength is probably comparable to that of the Celestial Ancestor."

In an instant, the expressions of the Demon Emperors changed drastically, and they all attacked Ye Linyuan relentlessly, trying to hold him back and give the others a chance to catch up.

Unfortunately, for an invincible Dao Ancestor like Ye Linyuan, the number of people no longer has much significance.

Unless the opponent has prepared for a long time and uses methods to trap Ye Linyuan, no amount of Perfected Integration Realm cultivators can stop him.

However, in this universe, there are very few treasures that can trap an invincible Dao Ancestor. Even if there are, they require the right timing, location, and people, and the invincible Dao Ancestor himself must break in to succeed.

The reason Ye Linyuan lingered for a while and had everyone surround him was mainly to attract attention and make Wanling Daozu and the others leave as soon as possible.

Now that my wish has been fulfilled, there is naturally no need to linger.

He unleashed a full-force attack, like a god-emperor from beyond the realm, cutting through the encirclement of enemies in this world and finally escaping from the Nine Nether Demon Realm.

Having been forcibly driven out of the Nine Nether Demon Realm, the demons were not about to give up easily, and dozens of demon emperors immediately followed after them.

However, the human race and the celestial race were prepared. As soon as they left the Nine Nether Demon Realm, dozens of Dao Ancestors, including the Xuanwu Ancestor and the Qilin Ancestor, came to support them. Clearly, these were backup plans of the human race and the celestial race.

The two sides fought a battle outside the Nine Nether Demon Realm, but the battle ultimately ended inconclusively.

Of course, both sides suffered considerable losses in this battle. The Human Race's Myriad Spirits Dao Ancestor and Myriad Medicine Dao Ancestor escaped unscathed, but two early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators from the Celestial Race remained in the Nine Nether Demon Realm. (End of Chapter)
