Demon Sword Sect's Undercover

Chapter 1097: Extreme Pursuit [Double Monthly Ticket Request]


The words of Hei Fu surprised Zhi Xuan and the other Daoists greatly. They were aware of the status of the Heavenly Heart Pavilion on the Jinxiu Continent and knew that its existence was very helpful to their arrival as celestial visitors. Initially, they thought it was merely an Upper Realm pawn placed on Jinxiu, but now it seemed they had underestimated it?

"Why? The Heavenly Heart Pavilion is the center of the continent, a very special place. If we were to move against it, it would bring about a lot of unnecessary trouble. At the very least, there would be too much opposition within the Jinxiu Cultivation Realm. Without a reason, no one would dare to do such a thing."

Hei Fu said quietly, "If we knew why, why would we need to destroy it? To be honest, the initiation of the beast tide was for this purpose. The Lizhi Sea Clan is restraining the Southwest region, Tianjin Ocean is restraining the Southeast Daoist, and we attack from the Northwest, Northern Territory, and Northeast simultaneously. As long as one route can successfully advance to the inland depths, the objective can be achieved.

Unfortunately, human defense was too tight, and the Lizhi Sea Clan was too weak. Once they collapsed, we knew the situation was unsustainable, leading to humans recovering lost ground later.

Do you think that after mobilizing over a million members of the Demon Clan, we would simply be joking with you? If it weren't for a cause, why would we do this? What could we gain?"

The Daoists looked at each other in dismay. In fact, upon careful thought, the last beast tide indeed made no sense, not fitting the normal coexistence principles among various races in the Universe Cultivation Realm. Without absolute assurance, the Demon Clan's beast tide would only result in self-destruction and nothing else.

Now, the reason became clear. They intended to launch a surprise attack on Shangyu Country and destroy everything here.

"The plan is very thorough and imaginative…" Zhi Xuan Daoist reluctantly praised.

But Hei Fu was very clear, "No, we simplified the matter too much. We placed our main forces on Tianjin Ocean intending to hold the Southeast Daoist. The result was decent, but we lost hold in the Southwest, leading to a chain collapse before we could launch a total assault in the other three directions. So, you should thank the Sword Sect. If not for them, we might have achieved the objective."

Zhi Xuan was straightforward, "No, you wouldn't achieve the objective! Even if Lizhi Sea did not collapse, you still wouldn't breach the human defense circle because we are here. Did you really think the Southeast Daoist was entirely restrained by your clumsy tactics?"

Hei Fu smiled meaningfully, not interested in arguing or triggering the sensitive nerves of the Daoists. What was the point of arguing about something that hadn't happened; it would just be post-rationalization.

"Everything I know has been told to you. Instinctively, we believe the greatest variable in this journey on Jinxiu lies here, in Shangyu, at the end of the year, in the Heavenly Heart Pavilion, on the Sealing Infant List... To eliminate all this, we must eradicate the Heavenly Heart Pavilion. Believe me; we share common interests in this matter."

Zhi Xuan Daoist would not be easily manipulated by him. The interests of the Demon Clan aligning with human interests? That was a joke! His first instinctive reaction was that if the Demon Clan wanted something destroyed, then humans must protect it. There were many twists and turns here.

"Eradicating sects and Daoist orthodoxy? That is too broad; forgive me for being blunt, you can't achieve that. I want to know why you chose to do this? Instinct brought you here, so what special thing did you find?"

Hei Fu shook his head, "We're looking, but for now, the Daoist orthodoxy of the Heavenly Heart Pavilion itself is quite ordinary. What's extraordinary is these inexplicable things they're doing. Don't you think if it really is the guidance of Heavenly Dao bringing us here, the existence of the Heavenly Heart Pavilion seems to be part of it?

If it's merely about people, the only suspicious thing in the Heavenly Heart Pavilion is their Pavilion Master, but we can't find this person. Perhaps you can?"

Zhi Xuan waved his hand, "That's our business. I'm glad to hear something useful, but how we should proceed does not require your concern; the Six Gods will soon be released, a gesture of our sincerity."

Hei Fu did not insist either. He knew that with racial divides in place, reaching consensus is difficult; it requires highly coordinated interests. However, he was still satisfied, not only rescuing the Six Gods but also planting a barrier in the opponent's heart.

They have time, time to wait for this thorn to take root and sprout.

As they watched the three members of the Demon Clan turn and leave, the few Daoists felt there was some gain this time. Hui Yuan Daoist simply snorted,

"These Demon Clans, they even dare to swagger into the human world. They just take advantage of the Jinxiu natives who are unable to see their origins."

Zhi Xuan Daoist reminded him, "Brother Hui Yuan, your attitude is incorrect. You must realize that the beast tide is over; we shouldn't dwell on the past. In the Universe Cultivation Realm, what's important is to look forward."

Gu Bai Daoist, "What do you think, how much of Hei Fu's words are true and how much false?"

Guan Zhi Daoist shook his head and smiled, "It's all true. They just didn't disclose the most crucial part. These things they mentioned are to lead us by the nose, a common tactic of the Demon Clan."

They all were discerning Daoist elites, each with a Seven-orifice Exquisite Heart to be sent here,

Zhi Xuan smiled faintly, "Let's go and see that female cultivator from Taihao. She's been staying here for a reason."

Hui Yuan Daoist was indifferent, "What's there to see? When it comes to divination, can Taihao be stronger than our Three Pure Ones System? Cen Shen junior brother, what do you say?"

Cen Shen, who came from the Daoist orthodoxy of divination within the Three Pure Ones System, specialized in divination techniques.

Cen Shen, who had been silent, was very low-key, which was also a trait of this Daoist orthodoxy, "First of all, I won't perform any divination on the Jinxiu Continent. This was especially emphasized by our sect when they sent me here; secondly, as for the Jinxiu alone, the local cultivators will divinate more accurately because their foundational Qi Fortune is here."

Not everyone went along; this time it was Cen Shen leading because of the professional relevance, "Greetings, fellow Daoist. I am Cen Shen, having some connection with your sect's brother Tian Ling."

Zhao Xintong looked up, "Brother Tian Ling mentioned you. He said your sect is the crown of the Universe in divination, capable of knowing the secrets of the Heavenly Court above and deciding matters of the Mortal World below..."

Cen Shen shook his head, "That's too much. The secrets of the Heavenly Court are unknowable, and why bother with the matters of the Mortal World? Mastering divination for a hundred years, keeping a tight lip for a lifetime; is the fellow Daoist divining the Heaven Creation person?"

Zhao Xintong shook her head, "Who creates it doesn't matter, why trouble ourselves unnecessarily? Taihao Sect has some connections with the Heavenly Heart Pavilion, and their Sealing Infant List also requires us to produce a list of names. I am just here to put on a semblance.

It's unclear; once divined it changes, and divined wrongly, what's the use?"
