The Villain Has Something to Say - Chapter 164
Chapter 164: Glorious Generation! (I)
Since Luo Jianqing informed Tai Hua Mountain of what happened in Ding Hai Sect three months ago, Sir Hao Xingzi had cooperated with other Dao Cultivators to develop a plan to wipe out all demons lurking in the thirty-six states. Hao Xingzi had also sent messengers to the Fiend Realm and invited cultivators from the Fiend Palace, which however, all went unanswered.
During these three months, each sect made some gains.
In the four states around Tai Hua Mountain, they found more than fifty demons-thirty Fifth-Level demons equivalent to Gold Core cultivators, twenty Sixth-Level demons, four Seventh-Level demons, two Eighth-Level demons, one Ninth-Level demon and one Earth-Level demon exalt!
Situations in the territory of other sects were no better than Tai Hua Mountain. Although the number of demons might be less, the high level demons still existed. The Tribulation Passage demon exalt found by Duan Hun Sect was the first Earth-Level exalt found by human cultivators. The demon exalt found by Tai Hua Mountain was the second one. The Earth-Level black flare demon exalt found by Fei Hua Sect was the third one.
Ling Yun Hall, Tai Hua Mountain.
“Within just three months, we have found so many demons. I’d never expect that Demon has planted so many spies in our thirty-six states.” Sir Hao Xingzi wore a grave face and said seriously, “Sirs, you have to visit the Fiend Palace immediately. Please persuade the Fiend Palace to eliminate the demon spies within the Fiend Realm. If a great battle breaks out, these demons hidden in the thirty-six states and the Fiend Realm will be huge threats!”
“Yes, Chief!”
Tai Hua Mountain had sent several grand masters to the Fiend Palace. Even if the Palace was quite defiant, it should look to the larger picture now.
Meanwhile, Duan Hun Sect, Fei Hua Sect, Gui Yuan Sect and Shen Jian Sect had also sent cultivators to the Fiend Realm. The territory of Eight Clans was much smaller than that of Tai Hua Mountain and Four Sects, so they shouldered less burden in this clearing operation. The Eight Clans altogether only found three Ninth-Level demons.
Hearing the messages from those sects and clans, Sir Hao Xingzi pondered for a long time with a solemn face. He dismissed other people and only left Zuo Yunmo in the Ling Yun Hall.
The limestone bricks were reflecting the light in the vast Ling Yun Hall, which was supported by eighty-one immense pillars. Grey-haired Sir Hao Xingzi were sitting high, still frowning. After a long thought, he sighed deeply and looked at his chief disciple with complicated feelings.
Zuo Yunmo was wearing pale yellow clothes and turned to his master calmly.
Sir Hao Xingzi said, “Yun Mo, you are just fifty-eight years old and have reached the early stage of Nascent Soul, so your realm is very close to Xuan Lingzi. However, you must know that the world you are living in is much different from the one three hundred years ago. I don’t know why brilliant talent has kept emerging in the past decades. From time immemorial there has been the belief that the heaven-sent bonds to each era is different.”
Speaking of that, Sir Hao Xingzi paused. He looked at Zuo Yunmo seriously, “And you are living in an era much better than the one Xuan Lingzi experienced.”
What he said was not ungrounded.
If you reviewed the ten-thousand-years history of the cultivation world, you might find that some eras would witness numerous talents, yet some might see fewer brilliant talents. There was no explanation for this phenomenon. Maybe it was the intention of nature-some eras were bound to prosper while some were doomed to fall.
Hao Xingzi continued, “It is now a most prosperous era in tens of thousands of years. Luo Jianqing has made full use of this favorable time, and you are much behind him. No one can exactly predict when the battle between human and demon will break out, but Yunmo, with your current power, you will only become a fighter of no glory on the battleground. “
Zuo Yunmo made a courtesy and said, “I don’t have the intention to go out in a blaze of glory. I only wish human can win the battle so that people can stay safe.”
Hao Xingzi shook his head, “I can see my prospect of imminent death and you will become the Chief Master of Tai Hua Mountain someday.”
Zuo Yunmo lowered his head silently.
After a long silence, Hao Xingzi flickered his sleeve and said, “Go to Wan Shou Mountain and find your bond.”
Zuo Yunmo nodded.
Each peak of Tai Hua Mountain was making such preparation.
On Bi Can Peak, the third fellow sister Wei Qiongyin had started her decade-long closed-door cultivation to finish Nascent Soul Period.
On Yu Shou Peak, the fifth fellow brother Huo Yuchong left Tai Hua Mountain for Wan Shou Mountain to hunt demons.
On Lie Huo Peak, the sixth fellow brother Xiu Hen forged an Earth-Level sword and fell into Insight Realm, starting to reach Nascent Soul Period.
”
On Qing Lan Peak, the junior fellow sister Mu Tianxin was eager to practice outside Tai Hua Mountain, yet Sir Yu Qingzi felt worried about that and said, “Can you wait until I finish the Heaven-Level Seventh Grade Jade Pill? You can take it with you. No, that’s not enough. I will visit Huo Mingzi tomorrow to make several supreme Earth-Level instruments for you!”
On Hao Ming Peak, which had most of cultivators on the mountain, Sir Guang Lingzi gathered all the cultivators and exhorted them one by one. He told them to devote themselves to cultivation. At least, they should be able to protect themselves when the battle broke out. Meanwhile, he also coached his valued disciples in person.
When Guang Lingzi walked to Li Xiuchen, he paused for a while and took a glimpse at Xie Zizhuo.
Xie Zizhuo was wearing a black outfit. With his towering figure and young, handsome face, he was more solid and mature than dozens of years ago. Despite that, Sir Guang Lingzi still sighed. He directly got past Li Xiuchen and went to the next one.
Li Xiuchen had reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment. In Hao Ming Peak, he would be the top disciple. However, here, Guang Lingzi even didn’t give him personal coaching, which made Li Xiuchen baffled. When he came back, he had been pulled out of the hall by his fellow brothers.
The upset look could be seen on his pale face. However, after a long thought, he realized, “Even if the plot goes wrong, my power will still improve. Maybe the battle will really happen earlier, then with my Goldfinger, I can definitely benefit from it!”
