Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme-Chapter 1092 - 664: Suppression
Chapter 1092 -664: Suppression
To the east of the Central Plains of the Northern Territory, one can see a broken cliff. Below the precipice lies a vast and ancient river channel, remnants of the primal Barbaric Wastes, inhabited by countless Demon People from the Ten Directions Demon Countries—this is the Eastern Abyss Monster Race, well known to the Cultivators of the Northern Territory.
Now, upon this Eastern Abyss, the Ten Direction Array stands majestically arrayed, filled with exotic beasts and Alien Beasts, among which a golden figure stands out most prominently.
That golden figure, in human form, gleams like the proud sun, unbearable to the eyes of mortals; only those with high Cultivation can glimpse a few clues.
He is no ordinary creature, but a Divine Ape draped in armor, head adorned with the Phoenix Wing Crown, body cloaked in Golden Armor, feet shod in Cloud Stepping Shoes, wielding an Iron Rod Divine Weapon, standing above the clouds, his golden eyes ablaze like torches seemingly piercing the firmament.
Indeed, the body of this ape, though not particularly tall nor clad in a way that screams 'majestic grandeur,' contained within it a terrifying power and an air of defiance that belittles the countless mountains and rivers of the Ten Directions Demon Countries under his domineering aura.
He holds his iron rod, standing amidst the clouds; behind him are the Void Immortal Demon Saints of the Ten Directions Demon Countries, some looking up to him as their leader, waving flags and shouting, some frowning in silence, and still others coldly observing from the sidelines.

Yet he pays them no heed, his golden eyes fixed upon the Eastern Abyss, his gaze piercing the heavens, and he lets out an earth-shattering roar.
"Li Xuanyuan, we Demon Race would rather die than submit!"
"If it is battle you want, then battle it shall be!"
"Come forth!!!"
Standing atop the Eastern Abyss, his roar shakes the Central Plains, stirring winds and clouds into disarray.
"Tongtian Saint!"
"This old monkey!"
"Still as hot-tempered as ever!"
"Why roar so loudly? Does he really think he can challenge a True Immortal?"
"The Long Armed Ape Monkey, an alien species from Ancient Times, possesses the power to shrink mountains, grab the sun and moon, distinguish fortune and calamity, and toy with the universe!"
"Among the six Eighth Calamities Demon Saints of the Demon Race, he's the youngest in age, the highest in Cultivation, and the strongest in battle might, equal in renown to Qi Zhengming of the ancient times and the Ten Thousand Demon King from the Demon Abyss; he is the Supreme of Battle among the three clans!"
"When Qi Zhengming reached the Perfect completion of his Nine Tribulations, proving himself as a True Immortal with his sword, the Demon Race planned to push him forward to defend the Eastern Abyss. They handed over several treasures of the Ten Directions Demon Countries, including the clothing and armor left by the Fighting Saint Ape, along with his Divine Weapons."
"It is said that the Fighting Saint Ape was an Ancient Demon Clan Great Sage, with his iron rod he fought unmatched across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, domineering throughout the Divine Land and even stormed the ancient Heavenly Court, later for unknown reasons converted to Buddhism, leaving only his clothing and weapons with the Demon Race."
"With such might, are not his clothing and weapons treasures of an Earth Immortal, even Divine items of a Heavenly Immortal?"
"Not so; it is his prowess that stands out, not his armor and weapons. By Quality Rank, that suit is but Ninth Order, and that iron rod is said to be Tenth Order, severely damaged by great battles and no longer possessing the might of the past."
"Hmph, why speak so much about it, this old monkey was only slightly inferior to Qi Zhengming, the wielder of the Qiankun Heaven and Earth Path Sword, never completing the Nine Tribulations and reaching the True Immortal Realm. With what basis does he now resist the Honored Wandao, who quelled Qi Zhengming fifteen hundred years ago?"
"Indeed, no foundation for confidence, but at least he has the courage to battle. Unlike some, who capitulate without a fight, devoid of backbone, only knowing to bow and scrape, tail between their legs!"
"Hmph, the pot calling the kettle black. If you have such backbone, go challenge the Honored Wandao at the Wandao School. What skill is there in snide remarks here?"
"..."
Wisps of Divine Sense converged, observing the standoff between the Tongtian Saint and the alliance of Demon Countries, discussing fervently while also holding a detached wait-and-see attitude.
Lightning strikes the Solitary Peak that stands ten thousand Ren tall, and only through perfect Merit does one become a True Immortal!
Since the Heavenly Tribulation a few months ago, the Wandao School has been making a series of moves.
First, they convened the Ten Thousand Dao Conference, making the nine great Immortal Gates bow down, and the true cultivators of all directions to pay obeisance, firmly establishing themselves as the rulers of the Northern Territory.
Then, they conveyed an ultimatum to the eastern and western domains, demanding the Demon and Devil Races submit within a given timeframe or face military might, threatening to Scour the Court and Sweep the Den.
Facing this threat, the two races each had their stance.
Some advocated for war, some for submission, some for defiance unto death, some for enduring humbly...
This Tongtian Saint stood among the Demon Race's war faction, now further demonstrating his position with real action.
He sought battle, even if insurmountable, there must be a fight!
Kneeling in submission?
Out of the question!
The Demon Race tacitly agreed, as they too were unwilling to succumb without a fight, knowing they had to at least put up a struggle to find a reason, to convince themselves and all demons.
Thus, even with differing opinions within the clan, the Tongtian Saint still stood out to represent the Eastern Abyss and the Ten Directions Demon Countries.
Not just the Eastern Abyss Monster Race, but also the Devil Race of the Western Barbarians, even the Human Clan of the Northern Territory's Central Plains, all harbored similar feelings, gathering here to give themselves a reason, a reason to kneel.
The Tongbei Divine Ape raises his head high, issuing a challenge to the True Immortals of the Ten Thousand Dao!
Regarding this...
Amidst the misty clouds, auspiciousness descends.
A Five-colored Auspicious Cloud, from the Nine Heavens, drifts downwards before the Eastern Abyss.
The Tongtian Saint's eyes sharpen, his torch-like gaze illuminating the surroundings as all Immortal Demons focus their attention.
Yet the result they see is not the myriad shadows of True Immortals on the auspicious cloud, but a pair of Golden Boy and Jade Girl.
"This…!?"
Seeing this, everyone is taken aback, momentarily at a loss.
"Why are there two children?"
"Where is the Honored Wandao?"
"These two young ones, they are attendants of that individual, the two least among the top ten disciples of the Wandao School, Shui Lingling and Gui Sanqian."
"This is too outrageous, an insult!"
"This Tongtian Saint is, after all, a Demon Saint of Eight Calamities, and he actually sent these two children to dismiss me?"
