Chapter 984: Chapter 534: News from the Front Line—If We Fight Again, Then Remain Here Forever

"Dragon Venerable, whose side are you really on?!"

In the Endless Sea, within the front lines, a massive figure slammed the table and stood up, blocking out the sun. The Great Dao Lock Chains hung down behind him, and his eyes seemed to contain the sun and moon. He was also a powerful Demon Venerable, pointing at the Dragon Clan’s Demon Venerable, rebuking him.

The commotion Jiang Shu had stirred up in the Chaotic Demon Sea was too great.

The Demon Race at the front lines immediately noticed the shortage of troop reinforcements.

Several Demon Venerables were already discontented.

Previously, because the Black Dragon Demon Lord from the Dragon Clan failed to capture Jiang Shu, some suggested sending the Black Dragon Demon Lord to the battlefield to fight with the Daoist Monarchs.

However, the Black Dragon sought out the Dragon Clan’s Demon Venerable, leveraging old connections to forcibly remain in the Chaotic Demon Sea.

It was originally assumed he would redeem himself by killing Jiang Shu in one swift move.

No one expected that not long after, he would perish in the Chaotic Demon Sea.

This time, even the Demon Venerable Avatar had no choice but to leave the Endless Sea and return to the Demon Race.

The other Demon Venerables were aware of the power of the Dragon Clan Demon Venerable’s avatar, not to mention he personally laid down the Great Black Sun Technique; they all believed that Jiang Shu wouldn’t escape this time, and had secretly discussed using Jiang Shu’s corpse to exchange for some resources with the Human Clan.

However, no one expected that not only did Jiang Shu not die, but during this period, he even killed nearly a million Demon Race soldiers.

For the Demon Race, a million lives were nothing, especially considering that many of them hadn’t even awakened their spiritual wisdom, and they didn’t even recognize them as part of the Demon Race. Yet Jiang Shu’s actions were undoubtedly a slap in their faces, making it unbearable for them.

Seven or eight major cities in succession were destroyed in the battles between Jiang Shu and the Dragon Clan Demon Venerable’s avatar. The discontent within the Demon Race grew louder, even figures of the Demon Venerable level had to tread cautiously.

"If I were a Human Clan spy, the first thing I’d do is cut you down!"

The Dragon Clan’s Demon Venerable was filled with rage, and being attacked by another Demon Venerable at this moment, phenomena erupted behind him. The surrounding space was instantly thrown into turmoil, forming a phantom of a menacing dragon head.

"Then let’s see it!"

The other Demon Venerable was relentless, with giant wings that blocked the sky flashing behind him, the space behind twisting as if a black hole was manifesting.

This was a Demon Venerable from the Kunpeng Clan, who always had grievances with the Dragon Clan.

"Enough!"

"On the eve of a great war, don’t stir up trouble!"

Seeing that the two were truly about to fight, several other Demon Venerables all spoke up to dissuade them.

The Dragon Clan Demon Venerable knew that he indeed had been lacking in his conduct, and after a moment of silence said, "It’s not that my avatar is not making the effort; it’s just that Jiang Taixuan’s techniques are bizarre. He could evade the detection of the Great Black Sun Technique, and each time he appears, costs tens of thousands of our men their lives."

Able to avoid even the Great Black Sun Technique?

All the Demon Venerables were shocked.

They were well aware of the power of the Great Black Sun Technique.

"All the more reason to kill him."

The Kunpeng Clan’s Demon Venerable was also aware of the severity of the situation, his voice buzzing.

The Dragon Clan Demon Venerable was somewhat agitated, causing the surrounding space to be in constant turmoil.

"I know, but we are all being restrained by the Human Race Daoist Venerable, and even the powerful beings at the Demon Monarch Peak are being firmly restrained by the Human Clan’s Peak of Vientiane, so it is really impossible to spare enough manpower to go after him. He has many techniques, and he possesses life-saving supreme treasures given by the Human Race Daoist Venerable, making it difficult to kill him."

"Within the Demon Race, those old ones must remain in the clan, unless..."

They sat high on the Nine Heavens Throne, able to determine the fate of a race with a single thought, truly Lords of the World.

And yet they were being restrained by a junior at the Vientiane Middle Stage.

"I have already strictly ordered my avatar to ensure Jiang Taixuan is killed, even at the cost of burning the Tao Fire."

The Dragon Clan Demon Venerable said in a deep voice, with rage in his tone.

...

"Hahaha, today’s battle, driving those beasts away in disarray, was truly satisfying!"

In the Human Clan camp, cultivators sat around drinking, laughing loudly.

"Although the Demon Race is physically strong, they lack soul consciousness and divine sense; even if they are a small realm higher than us, we can kill them if we deal with them seriously!"

"I’ve accumulated a lot of merit over the past few days. After we’re done drinking, I’ll go exchange it for some Soul Divine Power, and maybe I’ll become a genius who can fight across realms and catch a glimpse of Daoist Monarch Taixuan."

This speaker was a disciple from the Creation Sect.

His talent was decent, regarded as a seed disciple in his sect.

But when he signed up to come to the front lines, he realized how vast the world was, and his talent, which he had always been proud of, was nothing significant.

There are always people better, skies beyond skies.

Luckily, his Dao Heart was firm, not becoming disheartened, but rather forging broad friendships to fight together, his cultivation advancing rapidly, drawing closer to the Nirvana Realm.

The so-called merit was the means by which the Eight Great Sects motivated the cultivators. As long as one brought back corresponding spoils, one could earn merit to exchange for cultivation resources, heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and even those cultivation technique books from the major sects that weren’t taught outside.

For this race war, the major sects indeed spared no expense.

"Hey, my talent is too poor. If I can reach the Nirvana Realm in this lifetime, it would be as if my ancestors’ graves were smoking, let alone catching up with Daoist Monarch Taixuan."

"Daoist Monarch Taixuan killed the Demon Monarch and eradicated a million demon soldiers; he has done great favors for me. Alas, my talent and cultivation are limited, and I have no way to repay him but to offer this life to further the great cause of our Human Clan."

The other person spoke in a calm tone, but the determination was evident.

They came from different Daoist traditions, walking different paths.
