Chapter 408 Protecting Eternal Peace (Please Subscribe)

"Congratulations, Chen Yi has become the eighth ancestor of our human race!"

"Congratulations, Ancestor..."

At this moment, people from Sky City, Earth Flame City, Human Extreme City, and even many other cities and inner cities all shouted in unison.

Even though they couldn't see Chen Yi, they couldn't help but offer their congratulations upon hearing the news.

Even those cultivators who were in seclusion made a special effort to recover their mental state, came out of their seclusion and shouted like everyone else.

All the sounds converged in one place, continuing for a long time.

Even the demon kings of the Demon Court, tens of thousands of miles away, heard their voices.

The location of the Demon Emperor's Palace.

The Demon Emperor of Wind and Moon naturally heard these sounds, but his expression remained unchanged, clearly indicating that he had expected it.

Naturally, Chen Yi became the ancestor of the human race.

Even disregarding the previous great battle, just the fact that he has the backing of Daoist Zhao Muzi is enough to secure him a place among the ancestors.

Moreover, in the past few days, the Demon Emperor of Wind and Moon had also subtly inquired about more things concerning Xun Wangtian from Xiaolan.

She then realized that Daoist Zhao Muzi was not an ordinary, powerful being, but rather an existence known as a "Transcendent One".

Regardless of their cultivation level or supernatural abilities, they had already exceeded the limits of what she knew.

Even within the many realms of Taizhou Mountain, no one dares to underestimate Daoist Zhao Muzi and his Xunwangtian.

This can be seen from the two divine powers that Chen Yi crushed earlier.

"Human Ancestor... With the help of Daoist Zhao Muzi, as long as he does not perish along the way, his future achievements will surely surpass those of Bai Shan, Hong Tian, ​​and others."

The Demon Emperor of Wind and Moon knew this clearly and firmly.

Besides Zhao Muzi's help, Chen Yi's own talent was also extraordinary, and his cultivation and supernatural abilities improved at a speed that had not been seen in a thousand years.

In addition, as the Barbarian Emperor had previously mentioned in his telepathic message—that Chen Yi was suspected to be the inheritor of the ancient Daoist court.

All of this made the Demon Emperor of Wind and Moon even more wary of Chen Yi.

If she cannot obtain the complete inheritance of the ancient demon court, she will not only be unable to stop Chen Yi's rise, but she will also be unable to suppress the human race.

If this continues, the Demon Court will inevitably be gradually devoured by the human race, whether it is the Tianyuan Continent or the Taizhou Mountain battlefield.

"The Ancient Demon Court..."

Just then, the half-demon princess, who had heard the sound from inside the Demon Emperor's Palace, walked out suspiciously. When she saw her figure in the distance, she called out.

"Mother, what's that sound over there?"

Xiaolan's cultivation level is not high. Even though she obtained an ancient cultivation technique from Daoist Zhao Muzi, her cultivation time is still too short. Her current cultivation level is only at the second-grade Divine Travel Realm.

Therefore, she could only faintly hear some noises, knowing that they were coming from the human race.

The Demon Emperor of Wind and Moon, his eyes still fixed on the distant Sky City, said in a calm tone:

"Chen Yi is now the ancestor of the human race, and the people over there are celebrating."

"Really? I..."

Xiaolan had just opened her mouth in delight when she noticed the tone of the Demon Emperor of Wind and Moon, and quickly pretended to be calm as she said:
"I see, Mother. Does that mean he's even more powerful now?"

The Demon Emperor of Wind and Moon glanced at her and said, "Actually, you can be as powerful as him."

"Me? I won't."

"As long as you manage Xun Wangtian and his people well, and find a way to obtain a few magical jade tablets from that Daoist Zhao, it will be enough to change the situation of our Demon Court and the human race."

Hearing this, Xiaolan didn't dare to speak, but just smiled and stuck out her tongue, saying:

"Mother, I can't compare to Chen Yi."

"Even if I speak to Master Zhao, he won't treat me the same way he treats Chen Yi."

However, exchanging it for a Divine Power Jade Token is a possibility.

Even if Daoist Zhao Muzi disagrees, she can try to find a solution from Sister Qingfeng.

But in that case, she could no longer tell the Demon Emperor of Wind and Moon.

Now that the human race and the demon court have signed a pact, the war has stopped, and both sides can recuperate, which is a good thing.

Even knowing that the Demon Court had suffered heavy losses, Xiaolan was not greatly affected.

She is indeed a princess of the Demon Court, and she does indeed have the bloodline of the Wind and Moon Demon Emperor, but she also has human blood.

In comparison, she actually prefers humans more.

The Demon Emperor of Wind and Moon was well aware of her thoughts, so he didn't say anything more.

Now that the human race and the demon court have reached this point, all she can do is look forward and try her best to make the demon court stronger again.

As for the outcome, it's beyond her control.

At least for now, she has no control over it.

"In short, just do your best."

"I know, mother."

Xiaolan looked at the swamp and dense forest outside the Demon Emperor's Palace, and could only vaguely see the outline of the human race's fortified city in the distance.

My mind inevitably drifted over to it.

She had known Chen Yi for some time, but wondered when they would meet in person.

"We'll see it eventually."

“He has decided to go to that secret realm to meet up with Daoist Mu Zi, Daoist Tianhe, and others. I will go with him then.”

Xiaolan thought to herself, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her face.

The Demon Emperor of Wind and Moon seemed to notice her expression and sighed inwardly. It seemed that his daughter was still more inclined towards the human race.

It's just unknown whether she might lend a helping hand if the Demon Court faces trouble in the future.

Just as the mother and daughter were looking at Sky City with different thoughts in their minds.

Beneath the Demon Emperor's Palace, in the various Demon King's Halls, the pillar Demon Kings such as Fox Bayi and Deer Chen naturally heard the voices from the human race.

His thoughts were inevitably somewhat complex and difficult to understand.

Some were ashamed and annoyed, some were angry, and many more harbored hatred and loathing.

Not to mention Jiaolong Luchen, who had suffered setbacks at Chen Yi's hands, even Hu Bayi, who had had contact with Chen Yi, felt somewhat resentful.

However, when the contract was signed, it stayed near the human race for several days and knew the current situation of the human race after that battle, and was even more aware of Chen Yi's importance in the hearts of the human race at this moment.

It can only be described as transcendent.

In this situation, temporarily avoiding their sharp edge is the best option.

At this moment, the dragon deer transmitted its voice to it: "Old fox, is there any way to relieve the hatred in my heart?"

Fox Bayi looked up and said in a calm tone, "Lu Chen, I know what you think of Chen Yi."

"Besides his slaughter of many young men in the previous battle, you must have your eyes on that Azure Dragon divine beast, right?"

Lu Chen paused for a moment before admitting, "I can't hide it from you; I do indeed want the bloodline of the Azure Dragon."

“If I can fuse with the Azure Dragon bloodline, I can shed my dragon form and transform into a dragon. You should understand the significance that would be to the Demon Court.”

Fox Bayi sneered, "Heh heh, King Deer Chen is truly loyal to my Demon Court."

They were clearly acting out of self-interest, yet they did it in such a grand and righteous manner.

Such hypocrisy is unlike anything the evil heretics on the human side possess.

"If you really want to deal with him, you can simply go and challenge him directly."

Lu Chen cursed inwardly, "You don't need to provoke me. If Chen Yi were easy to deal with, he would have died long ago on Tianyuan Continent."

"It's good if you know."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen stopped transmitting his voice to Hu Baiyi, his eerie eyes fixed on the direction of Sky City, his heart filled with gloom.

It knew very well that without the combined efforts of several powerful demon kings at the eighth level of supernatural abilities, and without finding the right moment to strike, it would be difficult to kill Chen Yi.

Now, Chen Yi has grown powerful. Although his cultivation and supernatural abilities are much weaker than theirs, he possesses quite a few strange items. In particular, the supernatural abilities of that Taoist priest can even affect the minds of these great demon kings at the eighth level of supernatural powers.

It is undeniably terrifying.

After pondering for a long time, Lu Chen then looked towards the direction of Tai Zhou Mountain. Perhaps it too would head to the Tai Zhou Mountain region to search for the legacy left behind by the ancient demon court.

Perhaps we can find a way to deal with Chen Yi from this.

……

With Chen Yi becoming the ancestor of the human race, none of the many demon kings in the Demon Court were happy.

Today, however, no one among the human race cares about the demons of the Demon Court.

After the cheers subsided slightly...

Inside the General's Mansion in Sky Dome City, several elders congratulated Chen Yi and then sat down one after another.

Immediately afterwards, the White Mountain Ancestor continued:
"Today, Chen Yi has become the ancestor of our human race, which is certainly a cause for celebration."

"However, our human race will face even greater challenges in the future, and none of you can afford to be complacent."

The powerful figures present nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

Now that the situation of the human race is becoming clearer, even if the White Mountain Ancestor doesn't say it, most people know what will happen next.

"The second matter is to reiterate the contents of the contract between the human race and the demon court."

"The northern territory of the Demon Court needs to build a passage to the Nether River, or rather, a city wall that is tens of thousands of miles long."

"It needs to be connected to the current Earth Flame City, and continue the ancestral system, building a garrison city every thousand miles and a fortified city every ten thousand miles, so as to achieve the purpose of mutual protection and defense."

The White Mountain Ancestor paused, glanced around, and said, "Building the city is the most important task going forward, so let the various sects of Taoism, who are skilled in Qimen formations, take on this task together."

He looked at Chen Yi, "What do you think?"

Now that Master Ziying is no longer here, among the elders, only Chen Yi is from a Taoist sect, and he is the current leader of the Taoist sect, Taixu Taoist Sect.

His opinion should be sought.

Chen Yi pondered for a moment, glanced at Li Qingzhou and the others below, and couldn't help but notice the gazes of Lou Yuchun, Lou Yushan and the others from Wuliang Mountain.

"The Daoist sect is perfectly capable of undertaking this important task of building the city."

"However, it is clear from this great battle that relying solely on formations for protection still has some limitations. Perhaps we should introduce other methods of protection."

"For example, there are inheritors who are skilled in the art of mechanical manipulation, as well as those from the Buddhist and Confucian schools, who each have their own ways of defense."

Chen Yi paused briefly, giving those present some time to think, and then said with a smile:

"By learning from the strengths of others, we can better protect the safety of humanity."

While one or two sets of Taoist formations can indeed defend cities, having such deadly things in the hands of an individual could cause immense harm to humanity should a figure like Daoist Ziying emerge.

Therefore, introducing other lineages of teachings can, to some extent, create obstacles.

Upon hearing this, the White Mountain Ancestor nodded slightly, exchanged a glance with the Second Master and the others, and they all understood his thoughts.

"Then let's do it this way. Xiao Huang of the Taixu Dao Sect will be in charge of building the city, and all other sects will cooperate fully."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Huang solemnly stood up, bowed, and said, "I respectfully obey the orders of Ancestor Baishan, Ancestor Chen Yi."

To be honest, it's a bit awkward for this sect leader to address his juniors as "Ancestor."

Especially when the people present looked at him with such mischievous eyes, it made him, the sect leader of the Taixu Dao Sect, feel somewhat ashamed.

However, Chen Yi becoming the ancestor of the human race is indeed beneficial to the Taixu Dao Sect.

He's experiencing a bittersweet kind of happiness.

One thing is finished.

The White Mountain Ancestor continued with the second point: "The Demon Court will soon send back the humans living there. I intend to unite them and have them live in the newly built city in the northern part of the Demon Court."

After he finished speaking, seeing that no one had any objections, he explained the matters to be discussed that day one by one.

The most important thing is to go to the Taizhou Mountain region.

Secondly, the second gentleman led the Confucian school to reorganize the subsequent division and arrangement of personnel in various human cities, as well as the military duty system.

Every task, big or small, was assigned and distributed.

Chen Yi naturally also had his own responsibilities—namely, to explore the Tai Zhou Mountain region.

It wasn't arranged by the White Mountain Ancestor; rather, he took the initiative to ask for it.

After the discussion concluded, the White Mountain Ancestor said solemnly, "The affairs of the human race are still unsettled, and everyone must continue to do their utmost!"

The second gentleman smiled and echoed, "Everything is in need of rebuilding."

Ancestor Hongtian grinned: "Let's just do it. We've survived the past thousand years with our human race in such dire straits. Now that the Demon Court is no longer a threat, how could things be any worse than before?"

The monk Foyin put his hands together and said, "Amitabha, if everyone works together, we can naturally reach the other shore."

"..."

It was Chen Yi's turn.

He looked down at the many powerful human beings below, his expression slightly serious, and spoke earnestly:
"As human beings, we should uphold the principles of humankind and safeguard peace for all generations."

"Therefore, our efforts today are not only for the present moment, but also for the next thousand or ten thousand years."

"I look forward to the day when, thousands of years after our success, the human race will still remember our names, just as we remember the names of our ancestors Taiyi and Muqing."

"well said!"

Hong Tian was the first to praise it, which immediately drew sighs of admiration from the others.

“What Chen Yi said is exactly what Cui was thinking.”

"I hope everyone can work together to ensure that our human race can firmly establish itself on Mount Taizhou!"

"Brother Baishan, it's not just about standing firm; it's about striving to climb higher, all the way from the Tianyuan Continent to the top of that mountain!"

"Hahaha……"

If the achievements of humanity today can be passed down for generations, they will certainly do their utmost.

Who doesn't want to be remembered for generations?
……

Within half a day, the situation at Taizhou Mountain was reported directly to the Tianyuan Continent.

Regardless of whether it was the Demon Court, the Barbarian Tribe, the Wei Dynasty, or the Buddhist Kingdom, they all knew that Chen Yi had become the ancestor of the human race.

The details of the previous great battle were also spread throughout the continent.

In an instant, everyone's thoughts became eager.

The human race was naturally overjoyed, but the demon court was somewhat distressed.

At this moment, no one pays attention to them, just like the demon court on the battlefield of Taizhou Mountain.

Wei Dynasty, Kyoto Prefecture.

The selection process for the younger generation of humans on the Tianyuan Continent, which has just begun, is in full swing.

Upon hearing this news, the Wei emperor, who was watching the battle, immediately burst into laughter, his voice booming and deafening. He couldn't help but order Liu Gaotong to relay the message:

"By imperial decree, the selection and competition will be suspended for three days!"

"To celebrate the achievements of Ancestor Chen Yi, the seventeen prefectures will hold a three-day celebration!"

"Furthermore, a general amnesty is hereby granted!"

Lin Xueru, who was preparing for the duel, was slightly stunned and stared blankly at the painted building.

Once she realized what was happening, a smile immediately spread across her face, and she said in a charmingly innocent way:

"Senior sister, did you hear that? Brother Yi has become an ancestor."

Xiao Xuanzhen's expression was complicated, and he said in a low voice, "I heard it, I heard it. That guy... Junior Brother has really made something of himself now."

The flower fairy was naturally happy, but due to her nature, she only smiled modestly.

"After the competition ends, we will head to the Taizhou Mountain battlefield to reunite with our senior brother."

"I hope we can all catch up with him..."
