Chapter 1380 - 731: The Great Battle

Xi’e’s voice was composed.

Winning over the human clan expert before her was merely a means of securing an insurance for herself.

Upon hearing these words, everyone present exchanged glances, their divine thoughts quickly beginning to communicate.

"We have reached a conclusion."

Taiwu Daoist Venerable’s deep voice spoke, then said, "Our human clan is willing to assist, but the benefits you promised in advance must be given to us in half."

"Alright."

Without hesitation, Xi’e agreed, waved her jade hand, and nearly half of the flowing lights flew out, landing before the many human clan experts.

Not only that, she also explained the situation here separately.

"Their objective is to contaminate this little world, because the final absorption of the power of the Seventh Floor and Eighth Floor is to be conducted through the Golden Crow Small World."

"If left to pollute and occupy, perhaps when the Immortal Embryo is forged, the opponent’s will may appear within, and by then all will be lost."

"Senior, is there a method of control?"

Jiang Shu asked.

"There is, but once they occupy more than half, it will lose effect."

Xi’e explained.

"I have ultimately perished, having a way to contend with a living Demon Lord is only possible due to the special nature of this realm."

Xi’e spoke up.

And at this moment, the remnant thought of the former Heavenly Empress suddenly raised her eyebrows and murmured, "The Seventh Floor has arrived."

The Seventh Floor of the Ten Thousand Gods Cave!?

Hearing these words, everyone present was suddenly startled.

They abruptly recalled that Xi’e once mentioned that on the Seventh Floor, the Golden Crow World would be tempered.

And sure enough, at this instant, the entire Golden Crow Small World began to tremble, an overwhelming sense of oppression surged in, permeating the world.

At this moment, everyone remaining here felt as if everything around them was burdened with a heavy shackle.

"This is..."

Spirit Light flickered around Jiang Shu, countless forces surged forth, forcibly resisting the oppressive sensation from the outside, yet a glimmer of delight flashed across his face.

"This, can it temper the physical body!?"

At this moment, Jiang Shu clearly felt his physical body strengthening little by little.

It’s worth noting that reaching his current realm meant his physical body was already extremely formidable; without substantial opportunities, he would have to temper himself slowly, like an ordinary Venerable, through disciplined effort over time.

And this was destined to take a long time.

After all, for the Power Dao, the physical body was always the most powerful foundation!

At this moment, under the oppressive force, his body underwent a significant transformation, constantly evolving and strengthening.

"Hoo!"

Jiang Shu slowly exhaled a breath of impure air, his cultivation technique continuously operating, and his robust heart pumped his blood, flowing throughout his body, endlessly.

Vaguely, all sorts of impurities within his body were being gradually expelled by that overwhelming oppressive force.

This even included the Five Declines Poison from previous battles, which had yet to be entirely cleared.

Not just him, many Venerables present gained insights, each showing an expression of joy, all looking towards Xi’e.

For them, some had not delved as deeply into the Power Dao and did not exert excessive effort, resulting in their physical bodies naturally lacking compared to experts specializing in this Dao.

Yet through this event, their physical body was unexpectedly able to enhance further, naturally providing endless benefits.

At this moment, Xi’e explained,

"Everyone, this matter has been established; after the Golden Crow World swallows up numerous little worlds and fragments, its power will be digested, and impurities will be eliminated using this place."

Upon hearing this.

The numerous Daoist Venerables present couldn’t help but marvel once again at the Daoist Master’s and Demon Lord’s methods, truly marvelous beyond measure!

Even countless years after death, such grand schemes can still be set.

"Since that’s the case, then we must now act to prevent the opponent from eroding the Golden Crow World, so..."

Taiwu Daoist Venerable gazed at Xi’e, saying, "Senior, whatever power you have, bring it all out."

"Our human clan is only allied with you, not your subordinates, always bearing the brunt for you; exposing part of the power to each other is the prerequisite for cooperation."

He spoke with steady eyes, without a trace of fear.

"Of course."

Xi’e nodded slightly and then, with a flick of her finger, a Space Gate suddenly opened around them.

The human Venerables looked up and saw a scene of a palace with ethereal immortal music and swirling clouds.

And within that palace, one by one, the Demon Venerables were motionless, their expressions vacant as if frozen in place.

This scene was as if a creature was sealed in ice.

Jiang Shu, seeing this scene, suddenly had a flash of Spirit Light in his mind, and he spoke abruptly:

"This, could this be the former Heavenly Court Demon Venerables? Sealed until now?"

Hearing him speak, Xi’e nodded slightly.

"Indeed, at the end of the great war, my husband and I realized that the Heavenly Court might soon face destruction, so we laid down our own contingencies, and now, these are one of them."

"At the moment of impending fall, I burned a part of Ruomu and Fusang Ancient Tree’s power, solidified time, sealing them here, and now it’s time to put them to use."

As her words fell, the Heavenly Empress extended a slender jade finger, and the space before them suddenly came to life, the passage of time rapidly accelerating as one Demon Venerable after another began to awaken.
