Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1202 - 852: Domain of Body Integration Realm, Void Refinement Realm Invincible
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
"To achieve a breakthrough in the Void Realm, I must await its further recovery," Jiang Fan mused. "Otherwise, I'm destined to remain at the peak of Refining Void Perfection."
Jiang Fan knitted his brows, acknowledging the uncertainty of the Void Realm's complete restoration, a process that could span centuries, even millennia. He could not afford to squander his time in this realm.
Furthermore, he anticipated that when the Void Realm finally permitted Integration Stage cultivators to enter, it would likely be those in the Mid or Late stages, not the Early ones. Should these formidable Integration Great Powers unite, the Primordial Talisman Sect would undoubtedly be overwhelmed, leading to the inevitable downfall of the Void Realm.
"It appears my path to a breakthrough lies within the Spirit Ruins Realm," Jiang Fan declared, resolute in his decision. While other cultivators might be resigned to waiting, thus losing invaluable cultivation time, his possession of the Gate of the Void granted him the unique ability to traverse Great Thousand Worlds for his advancements.
He could even continue his cultivation journey to Integration Perfection before returning, as the current stability of the Void Realm, coupled with the Primordial Talisman Sect's capable leadership, ensured any potential crises would be swiftly managed.
"Husband, Void Refining Demon Cultivators from the Ten Thousand Demon Hall have been detected near the Piaomiao Mountain Range," a message from Su Weiwei arrived. "It appears they are preparing to make a move."
An attack on the vast Source Stone Ore Vein? Jiang Fan's eyebrows rose. He was aware that since his acquisition of the vein, the Piaomiao Mountain Range had become a stronghold for the Primordial Talisman Sect. However, the Celestial Roc Race, though hesitant due to the devastating defeat of a previous Ten Thousand Demon Hall contingent, had been probing.
For three years, they had dispatched Demon Cultivators to investigate, but any scout venturing too close to the mountain range met their demise, yielding only fragmented intelligence. This deterred further immediate action, as the region was clearly perilous.
Yet, the Ten Thousand Demon Hall, an ancient power with deep influence, would not be easily deterred by mere danger. After three years of deliberation, they had likely secured reinforcements from their headquarters, dispatching a considerable number of Void Refining Demon Cultivators to ascertain the situation within the Piaomiao Mountain Range.
"However, this development might prove advantageous," Jiang Fan's eyes twinkled with anticipation. If they would not come willingly, their current aggressive approach left him with no cause for regret. His Soaring Snake Technique had recently advanced to the Seventh Tier, Early Stage, and the arrival of these cultivators presented a perfect opportunity to test his newly acquired Bloodline Divine Techniques.
Moreover, this decisive action would likely dissuade the Ten Thousand Demon Hall from launching further assaults, making it a truly multi-faceted victory.
With a swift resolve, Jiang Fan activated the Gate of the Void, instantly transporting himself to the Piaomiao Mountain Range in the Western Continent.
…
Meanwhile, a formidable gathering of Void Refining Cultivators from the Ten Thousand Demon Hall had converged near the Piaomiao Mountain Range. Over three years, at least a hundred had been systematically deployed to the Western Continent by the Hall, though not all were elite forces; a portion had been sent to other regions like the Eastern, Northern, and Southern Continents.
Regardless, the combined might of over a hundred Void Refining Demon Cultivators constituted a terrifying force within the Void Realm.
"The fallen brothers sent back transmissions indicating the discovery of an unparalleled treasure within the Piaomiao Mountain Range," one Demon Cultivator with Void Refinement Perfection stated menacingly. "Tragically, they perished before they could relay detailed intelligence, leaving us in the dark about this supposed treasure."
"However, we cannot let their deaths go unavenged," the cultivator continued, their intentions far from noble concern, "We must at least uncover who dared to slay our Ten Thousand Demon Hall cultivators."The decision to venture here was solely to uncover the treasure that led to the downfall of so many Void Refining cultivators, strongly implying the presence of an unparalleled artifact within this locale. Naturally, should genuine peril manifest, flight would be the immediate recourse, eschewing any foolish act of perishing; a multitude of escape strategies have already been devised for such an eventuality. Considering its cultivation prowess and the arsenal of escape arts at its disposal, the current Void Realm should not present tribulations potent enough to claim its existence, thus accounting for its willingness to participate. Occasionally, the pursuit of treasures necessitates embracing risks. "Previously, a contingent of Celestial Roc Race cultivators dispatched reconnaissance units into the Piaomiao Mountain Range." "And they uncovered a piece of crucial intelligence: improbably, human cultivators have been detected within the mountain range." "These humans have erected a colossal Array Barrier, spanning the entirety of the Piaomiao Mountain Range." "It is highly probable that these very human cultivators are responsible for the unfortunate demise of our Ten Thousand Demon Hall brethren." Yet another demon cultivator chimed in, divulging intelligence it possessed. "Human cultivators? Is the Western Continent not exclusively inhabited by cultivators of the Demon Race? How could humans possibly appear here?"
