Five hundred years after the full-scale counterattack, the Spirit Ruins Realm has largely been cleared of demons. Ye Linglong has established Linglong City, a pioneering settlement designed to transform the demon-infested regions back into habitable lands using special Heaven and Earth Spirit Plants. This endeavor, initially daunting, has become a desirable opportunity for cultivators due to the immense benefits of these transformed lands.

The speakers, Xiao Duan, Jiang Mo, Su Wangyue, Liu Shengnan, and others, are all loyal subordinates of Ye Linglong, and they are also Life Plate Cultivators with extremely high cultivation talent.

After spending five hundred years, their cultivation had also made rapid progress, and they had become Void Refining Cultivators.

Originally, Void Refining Cultivators were figures they looked up to in their childhood.

But now, they have become such figures themselves.

This also made them feel quite emotional.

Of course, the reason for such rapid progress is not only because of their extremely high cultivation talent.

More importantly, they have also built several Pioneer Cities.

Basically, Linglong City serves as the main city, while other cities are satellite cities scattered in various places.

They occupied the surrounding area of ten thousand miles.

To some extent, this region could already be considered a small kingdom.

Moreover, after occupying this region, the Spirit Stone Ore Vein and numerous mineral resources contained within this land also belonged to these pioneers.

So after acquiring these benefits, they also obtained a large amount of cultivation resources, enabling their cultivation to advance rapidly.

In fact, it’s not just them.

This is an unprecedented grand era of cultivation.

Countless cultivators have gained benefits from the current situation and soared to great heights.

"But all of this should be attributed to Lord Alliance Leader."

"It’s said that Lord Alliance Leader personally acted and destroyed the headquarters of the demons, the Ten Thousand Demon Cave."

"At the same time, he also eradicated the vast majority of high-tier demons."

"Thus, the Human Race and Demon Race had the strength to wipe out the remaining Demon Caves."

"Otherwise, even after countless years, it would have been impossible to solve the demon issue."

Xiao Duan said with great emotion.

It’s important to know that the threat of demons had persisted for billions of years, occupying most of the Spirit Ruins Realm.

Like pests, they entrenched themselves in every corner of the Spirit Ruins Realm.

Even more detestable is their covetous gaze on the Human Race and Demon Race’s remaining lands.

Every now and then, they launched invasions, causing countless casualties among the Human and Demon Races.

But they still couldn’t do anything against the demons because they were just too strong.

However, since the appearance of Lord Alliance Leader, this situation has completely changed.

The demons have been defeated again and again.

Now, they have been completely eradicated, realizing the dream of countless lives in the Spirit Ruins Realm for billions of years.

To be honest, he felt as if he was in a dream.

Never would he have thought that the demon catastrophe could be solved just like that; it was truly unbelievable.

"Yeah, initially I thought that to completely eradicate the demons would require all the high-level members of the Human and Demon Races to join forces."

"Then, after an epic war, and paying a huge price with the deaths of countless cultivators, could we achieve final victory. Who would have thought that victory would be so easily at hand?"

"And it had nothing to do with us at all; the catastrophe just disappeared like that."

Su Wangyue clenched her fists, feeling very helpless.

She felt that since she was a Child of Fortune, she should have had a place in such an epic scene.

At least she could have her name in the annals of history.

But before she could fully grow up, the war that lasted billions of years just ended like this.

This made her feel very frustrated, as if she had missed a lot.

"Haha, I think this is a great thing."

"If such an epic war had really occurred, who knows how many people would have died."

"Instead, with things as they are now, the vast majority of people are still alive and haven’t encountered too much disaster."

"If you all died, then achieving final victory would be meaningless to me."

"Nothing is more important than being alive."

Jiang Mo smiled faintly, speaking calmly and leisurely.

His heart was quite serene, actually feeling that this situation was better for him.

Because a safe environment might allow him to develop faster.

If it were wartime, maybe one day he would be killed by demons.

Don’t think that just because he is a Life Plate Cultivator, possessing immense destiny, he wouldn’t die.

In fact, some members of the Mixed Element Alliance also perished due to various disasters.

The cultivators who can cultivate steadily to higher realms are, instead, the minority.

The vast majority of cultivators can’t fully realize their potential.

"Hmm."

Hearing this, the others all nodded in agreement.

Compared to becoming a legend, continuing to live is more important.

"Previously, we were still speculating whether Lord Alliance Leader was an Integration Cultivator."

"Now it seems we underestimated Lord Alliance Leader."

"Lord Alliance Leader is probably already a Mahayana Cultivator."

"And not just any Mahayana, otherwise how could he eradicate the Ten Thousand Demon Cave?"

Xiao Duan said with deep emotion.

He recalled their speculations about the Alliance Leader when their cultivation was low.

At that time, they were too weak to understand what a truly powerful cultivator was like.

After all, to their younger selves, even cultivators above Divinity Transformation were unstoppable powerhouses.

Anyway, with a single breath, they could exterminate them.

So, they didn’t understand how significant the gap was between high-tier cultivators.

Because of this, they thought Lord Alliance Leader might be at the Integration level.

Thinking about it now, how could mere Integration Cultivators achieve such feats?

"Indeed, that’s exactly the case."

"The Mixed Element Alliance built by Lord Alliance Leader can span across many Great Thousand Worlds of the Mortal World."

"I’ve seen Integration Cultivators before, but they simply couldn’t achieve that."

"Even if they borrowed the power of an Immortal Artifact, if their cultivation wasn’t sufficient, even if they got the Immortal Artifact, they wouldn’t be able to harness any power from it."

Jiang Mo nodded.

He also had the same feeling; as his cultivation deepened, he increasingly realized how unfathomable Lord Alliance Leader’s cultivation truly was. They were like frogs at the bottom of a well, not knowing how vast the moon above really was.

But they couldn’t be blamed; their vision was too narrow back then.

Unable to understand what a true high-tier cultivator was like.

But that didn’t matter.

After all, as long as Lord Alliance Leader was on their side, that was enough.

They also received countless benefits in the Mixed Element Alliance.

"Ms. Linglong has come out of seclusion."

At this moment, Liu Shengnan looked into the distance with joy.

In the sky, the wind and clouds suddenly reversed, with the clear sky turning purple and gold in an instant.

Void soundlessly quaked as layers of ripples formed in space, as if heaven and earth were bowing in retreat.

There were no earth-shaking roars, yet an imperial might overshadowing all beings unfurled from the void, pressing down the Spirit Grass on the plains, making birds and beasts crawl, and shaking the hearts of thousands of cultivators in the city. Even the billions of array runes on the city walls lit up voluntarily, bowing in submission.

A figure slowly walked out of the clouds.

She wore an imperial robe like the purple sky, adorned with dragon and phoenix patterns woven with golden thread, lightly swaying in the wind, with Dao Metrical Rhythms accompanying her. Her long hair tied high with an imperial hairpin, her features cold and extraordinarily beautiful, with eyes harboring the sun, moon, stars, and the birth and death of worlds. Every step caused the void to lightly tremble, with golden lotus Dao Rhymes blooming underfoot, each step resplendent, untouched by dust.

Not imposing pressure deliberately, yet making all things naturally submit.

Cultivators felt a chill in their hearts, even their breathing became cautious—this was not fierce or domineering, but the supreme imperial might that held sway over the cosmos and governed all laws.

She stood above Linglong City, looking down on the mortal world, her robes fluttering, the divine light swirling around her.

At that moment, heaven and earth were silent, with not a sound heard.

An Immortal descending to the mortal world could be no more than this.

"Not bad, your cultivation progress is quite satisfactory."

"You’ve all advanced to Void Refining."

"It seems you’ve also had some fortuitous encounters."

At that time, Ye Linglong came before the crowd, her Divine Sense lightly scanning them, feeling quite satisfied.

After all, they were not just her subordinates, but also her younger brothers and sisters.

Seeing her siblings doing so well, she, as their elder sister, naturally felt delighted.
