"Ji Xianshen is too powerful. We have to find a chance to kill him. Otherwise, the righteous path will only grow stronger!" Patriarch Blood Fiend said in a deep voice.
His gaze swept across Xuan Qingjun, White-Haired Fiend Lady, and Fiendish Arhat. He hesitated as to who should attack.
White-Haired Fiend Lady covered her mouth and laughed. "Then, Patriarch, why aren't you attacking? You're the strongest among us."
Xuan Qingjun and Fiendish Arhat nodded.
Patriarch Blood Fiend cursed.
Killing Ji Xianshen wasn't that simple. Even if he succeeded, there would be no end of trouble.
This was a treasured member of the Heavenly Immortal Manor!
Xuan Qingjun suddenly asked, "There are two Golden Crows in the mortal world. Is that a sign?"
The three fiends frowned.
They were also puzzled.
The demonic path was ultimately not favored by the Heavenly Dao. They were also worried that the Heavenly Dao would punish them.
"Demon Lord, why don't you go to the netherworld and ask the devil race about this?"
Xuan Qingjun said calmly, "Sure. But it'll take me more than ten years for this trip. Can you all stabilize the situation?"
White-Haired Fiend Lady smiled. "Of course we can. We want to go to the netherworld, but we don't have the ability like you, Demon Lord."
Xuan Qingjun smiled and didn't reply.
The atmosphere between the four fiends became quite subtle, all of them harboring ulterior motives.
…
On a cliff, Su Qi was surrounded by countless fiendish cultivators.
He held a sword in his hand and was covered in blood. He was panting heavily and his eyes were bloodshot.
Ji Naihe stood on the Chaotic Heavenly Dog and looked down at him, asking, "Why did you betray me? Is it the Devil Master's intention?"
The Chaotic Heavenly Dog looked at Su Qi with mixed emotions. It was struggling internally.
It didn't know if it should save Su Qi.
But even if it attacked, it couldn't change the outcome. The dog was not the Fiend Emperor's match!
"It has nothing to do with the Devil Master. I'm a cultivator of the righteous path. I can't be with the demonic path!" Su Qi said in a low voice.
He straightened his back and was fearless.
Master will definitely save me!
Su Qi believed that.
Ji Naihe narrowed his eyes, a murderous look in them. "Dog, go eat him!"
Upon hearing that, the Chaotic Heavenly Dog was alarmed.
Ji Naihe flew up, no longer restraining it.
The Chaotic Heavenly Dog looked at Su Qi, who looked back calmly.
Su Qi shook his head slightly.
They had known each other for more than ten years, but Su Qi couldn't stand working for him, so he betrayed the Fiend Emperor.
Now that the fellow disciples were enemies, it was quite saddening.
Su Qi still wanted to help the Chaotic Heavenly Dog.
He used his eyes to signal the dog not to attack him.
Otherwise, Master would definitely not let it go!
Su Qi didn't dare to use his divine sense to send a voice transmission, afraid of exposing his master's existence.
The Chaotic Heavenly Dog was caught in a huge dilemma.
It thought of the Black Hell Chicken and Han Jue.
It thought of the warm and peaceful cultivation mountain.
It had once possessed everything, but it chose to give up such a life.
Now, it was already a prisoner. How could it kill its master's disciple?
The more the Chaotic Heavenly Dog thought about it, the more aggrieved it felt. The anger in its heart burned.
"What are you waiting for!" Ji Naihe shouted impatiently.
The Chaotic Heavenly Dog raised its head and let out a long howl. It suddenly turned around and pounced at Ji Naihe. "I'll fight it out with you!"
Boom—
Ji Naihe sent it flying with a palm strike, causing blood to spray through the air.
"How dare you!"
Su Qi was furious. He was so angry that his head spun. His eyes instantly turned black and a strange black aura appeared around him.
Ji Naihe looked at him in surprise. "This power is…"
At this moment…
An arrogant laugh sounded.
"Fiend Emperor, I've finally found you. Die!"
All the fiendish cultivators turned their heads and saw rolling thunderclouds sweeping over the horizon. Endless lightning struck down, destroying the mountains and rivers along the way. Amidst the thunder and lightning, a man in green stepped over. He was like a true immortal from the nine heavens, charging over with the momentum of thunder.
Ji Xianshen!
…
Eleven years had passed since Han Jue had gained insight into the Firmament Sword Qi.
[Detected that you are 600 years old and have taken another step forward. You have the following choices:]
[1: Exit seclusion immediately and slay the demons and devils. Your name will shake the world. You can obtain a Numinous Treasure.]
[2: Continue cultivating. Ignore the mortal world and rush to the Mahayana Realm. You can obtain a Numinous Treasure and a random bottle of pills.]
Han Jue chose the second option without hesitation.
[You choose to continue cultivating and break through to the Mahayana Realm. You will obtain a Numinous Treasure and a random bottle of pills.]
[Congratulations on obtaining the Grand Unity Numinous Treasure—Giant Spiritual Wrist Guard]
[Congratulations on obtaining a bottle of Mahayana Soul Thought Pill.]
[Giant Spiritual Wrist Guard: Fifth-grade Grand Unity Numinous Treasure. It can absorb Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi and increase physical strength in battle.]
[Mahayana Soul Thought Pill: A pill used by Mahayana Realm cultivators to strengthen the soul.]
Another Grand Unity Numinous Treasure!
Not bad!
Han Jue was happy.
He immediately took out the Giant Spiritual Wrist Guard and began to make it recognize him as the owner.
Four hours later, he put on the wrist guard. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
As for the Mahayana Soul Thought Pill, he had no use for it at the moment. He would use it after he broke through to the Mahayana Realm.
Han Jue was already close to the ninth level of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.
He continued to cultivate and checked his emails.

…
Han Jue frowned.
Su Qi entered Qi Deviation?
What happened?
As for the Chaotic Heavenly Dog, it was also severely injured. The two of them were in terrible shape!
The cultivation world was really becoming more and more chaotic.
Han Jue sensed Fairy Xi Xuan, Xing Hongxuan, and Mo Zhu's Heavenly Puppets. Since the three women were fine, he no longer cared about the rest.
"The fiends are too tenacious. How many fiendish cultivators are there?"
Han Jue was secretly puzzled. This war between the righteous and demonic paths had been going on for decades or even centuries.
Fortunately, he was not involved!
If he had the time to fight, he might as well cultivate!
Han Jue shifted his attention to the sky above the immortal mountain. The two Golden Crows were still there. They were really persistent.
Then, Han Jue stopped thinking and continued cultivating.
No matter how the world collapses, don't even think about disturbing my cultivation!
…
Five years passed.
Han Jue finally broke through to the ninth level of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm!
In at most three years, he would be able to break through to the Mahayana Realm!
A six-hundred-year-old Mahayana Realm cultivator!
Not bad!
Han Jue was satisfied with the progress of his cultivation, but he was not proud. After all, there were still enemies in the higher realms.
Not to mention anything else, Han Jue wouldn't ascend unless he had at least mid-stage Grand Unity Earth Immortal Realm cultivation level, the same as the Vermilion Bird's.
Han Jue started to check the other's cultivations.
Fang Liang had actually reached the Soul Formation Realm, while Murong Qi was still at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Yang Tiandong and Xun Chang'an were also at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Fang Liang had already surpassed his fellow disciples!
Dao Comprehension Sword had also reached the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Realm.
After Su Qi's Qi Deviation, his cultivation had soared. Now, he was at the sixth level of the Soul Formation Realm!
