"Sigh, only the Human clan has such traditions of sacrifice."
"For us Demon clan, where is there a similar tradition?"
"Death is death, no one will remember us, let alone perform sacrifices for us."
"To provide us with vast offerings."
Many demon ghosts said helplessly.
They naturally also want to obtain the power of offerings, but the issue is where they can find living people to sacrifice for them.
After being dead for so long, it's estimated that the beings in their clan have long forgotten about them.
Without sacrifices, naturally there wouldn't be any offerings.
As ghosts, what they fear most is being forgotten, without sacrifices.
Once such a situation arises, it won't take long for the ghost to dissipate into thin air.
If someone remembers them, then the ghost can survive for a very long time.
Even achieving immortality is not impossible.
So, for ghosts, being forgotten is akin to death.
"Indeed."
Demon Xiong felt very helpless, not blaming the heavens for unfairness, as the Demon clan simply doesn't have such a tradition, leading to demon ghosts not obtaining any power from offerings.
Without the shelter of the power of offerings, many demon ghosts can only struggle to survive in the Hell World.
Even a slight carelessness could lead to their spirits dissipating, vanishing into nothingness.
"Alright, let's not talk about these things, let's continue hunting."
"Until now, we still haven't killed any human ghosts."
At this moment, a demon ghost spoke in a deep voice.
"No way, still hunting human ghosts?"
"Weren't we severely wounded just now?"
"We are simply no match for human ghosts, aren't we?"
"If the other party is sheltered by the power of offerings, then wouldn't we just be courting death?"
Demon Xiong was stunned, not expecting his companions to be so stubborn.
"What's there to fear, not every human cultivator has the shelter of offerings."
"In fact, human ghosts possessing a large amount of offering protection are amongst the few."
"The Hell World often hosts ghosts unprotected by any offerings."
"And these human ghosts are basically criminals and sinners from the Mortal World."
"So even their descendants won't sacrifice for them."
"Resulting in them receiving no offering protection, not much different from us."
"Undoubtedly, such human ghosts are our most delicious food."
"Without offering protection, they're just a delicacy."
That demon ghost spoke in a deep voice.
"This."
Upon hearing this, Demon Xiong felt a great sense of helplessness, although having anticipated difficulties in Hell, he hadn't expected the grimness to be this severe.
But having already entered Hell World, he could only adapt.
Hoping that life in Hell would be slightly better in the future.
...
At this moment, on another side.
Immortal Realm Heavenly Court.
Due to the continuous expansion of the Xuanhuang Sect, ruling over fifteen thousand Great Thousand Worlds, its influence is enormous.
No matter how slow the Immortal Realm may be, it would still be aware of the Mortal World's happenings.
It's like an elephant.
Due to its overly large size, no matter what, it is impossible to hide.
"What exactly is going on?"
"Recently, the number of Immortals ascending from the Mortal World seems to be decreasing."
"What exactly has happened?"
A Great Luo Golden Immortal from the Heavenly Court frowned; he was an official responsible for managing Ascenders.
His name was Purple Feather Daoist.
Although True Immortals are nothing unusual for the Immortal Human Clan, they are everywhere.
But True Immortals originating from the Mortal World are different.
Because to survive through such harsh cultivation environments and overcome numerous tribulations to ultimately ascend to the Immortal Realm, would be considered a genius regardless of the place.
Besides talent, the most important aspect is the clean background of Ascenders, without the involvement of the many factions of the Immortal Realm.
Thus, Ascenders' backgrounds and personal information are very comprehensive, perfectly suitable to become part of the Heavenly Court.
Hence, Ascenders from the Mortal World are a rare valuable force for the Heavenly Court.
Indeed, this is the case.
As long as they can endure the first ten million years, these Ascenders from the Mortal World can easily become influential figures within the Heavenly Court.
Of course, due to the overly complex internal powers within the Immortal Realm Heavenly Court.
Local influential figures from the Immortal Realm believe the emergence of Ascenders hinders their control over the Heavenly Court, viewing them as thorns in their sides and often suppressing them.
Many Ascenders thus send to their untimely death in wars.
Only those extremely lucky, with strength and talent, might survive through various tribulations.
Nevertheless, the Heavenly Court does not wish to see the complete disappearance of Ascenders from the Mortal World.
"Reporting to the lord, the reduction in ascension from the Mortal World is reportedly due to the emergence of a super sect from the Human clan called the Xuanhuang Sect."
"This sect has developed rapidly, since its inception only twenty-four thousand years ago, it has already conquered numerous Great Thousand Worlds, boasting over a million Mahayana Cultivators."
"Even in the Earth Immortal Realm, Prison Demon World, True Spirit World, and other Great Thousand Worlds, the presence of the Xuanhuang Sect has been seen."
A Heavenly Court Immortal promptly spoke, revealing the information he had gathered.
To be honest, the connection between the Immortal Realm and the Mortal World is still quite close.
