I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 608 - 333: Sealed Land (Part 1)

After sending off Tianshang Supreme, Venerable Kun Ling, and the others, Li Mu instructed Xue’Er and Liu Yalan, then hurried back to Crescent Island to tend to the Spirit Plants and refine Spirit Treasures, not wanting to get too deeply involved in the external matters.

If not for the fact that the Purple Sun Reishi, Yin Soul Fruit, and the batch of Tier Four Five Elements Spirit Plants in the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion had not yet matured and couldn’t be harvested, Li Mu would very much like to leave the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region, this place of trouble, and find a place to continue surviving quietly.

Right when Li Mu was attending to the Spirit Plants and focusing on Artifact Refining.

The Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region suddenly experienced strong winds, with waves surging. A powerful ’hurricane’ suddenly erupted from one of the islands in the Sea Realm, its power seemed enough to sweep across the entire region.

This ’hurricane’ did not originate from natural phenomena but from the forces of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect and Taiyi Sect of the Central State Spirit Realm.

The cultivators from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect and the Taiyi Sect joined forces with the native powers of the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Realm to conduct an unprecedented carpet search, digging into every island in this Sea Realm and searching for traces of the Nine Demons Sect.

As a result, they indeed uncovered hidden forces of the Nine Demons Sect in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region, their tracks so secretive it left people speechless.

With deeper investigation, they discovered that several Demon Ancestors and dozens of Demon Venerables from the Nine Demons Sect were carrying out some unknown operations in this Sea Realm. Even more shocking was that small organizations like Cyan Smoke Workshop and Blood Shadow Tower within the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region had all fallen into the hands of the Nine Demons Sect, becoming pawns secretly controlled by them.

The great battle was on the verge, and Sword Master Feng from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect was the first to strike. With a single sword slash, Sword Qi filled the air, directly targeting one of the Ancestor Silent Extinction Demons of the Nine Demons Sect, ....

The unexpected battle lasted for several days. The entire Sea Realm was shrouded in Sword Qi and Demon Qi. Sword Qi filled the air, and Demon Qi roiled, plunging more than half of the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region into unprecedented chaos, as if the world was ending. The sea churned with waves dozens of feet high like furious dragons rising up, and hundreds of islands were wiped out in this catastrophic event.

The Demon Ancestors and Demon Venerables of the Nine Demons Sect were indeed powerful, but the Central Continent Alliance Army of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect and Taiyi Sect had the upper hand, and with the united attack from the native forces of the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region, the Nine Demons Sect was in constant retreat. Their concealed island’s Concealment Array, Absolute Yin Demon Array, and Island Protection Array were quickly broken, quickly putting them at a disadvantage.

In an instant, the Demon Ancestors and Demon Venerables of the Nine Demons Sect were either killed or fled, suffering repeated defeats. Part of the Nine Demons Sect’s forces suffered devastating blows in the chaotic battle, while another part took the opportunity to escape the battlefield, fleeing and hiding.

...

In the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region, beneath a deep ocean trench a thousand feet down, a quiet and secluded underwater cave, there was no sunlight, no life, only endless darkness and pressure within the deep sea.

However, this forgotten corner had become a refuge for the remnants of the Nine Demons Sect, hiding in this undersea cave, temporarily avoiding the pursuit from the Central State Spirit Realm and native forces of the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Realm.

"Damn it! It’s all your fault!" Ancestor Wutian Demon glared angrily at the siblings Hong San and Hong Shuang, berating them fiercely.

"If it weren’t for your instigation for revenge on your behalf, our sect’s secret operation in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region wouldn’t have been easily exposed!"

Before he could finish his words, Ancestor Wutian Demon suddenly struck, sending Hong San flying with a single palm.

Ancestor Wutian Demon’s eyes widened with anger; the Nine Demons Sect’s losses were incredibly severe this time. The surprise attack from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect came too unexpectedly and swiftly, nearly costing him his life on the spot.

Hong San tumbled through the air, spewing blood from his mouth, finally landing heavily on the ground, struggling to get up with a look of resentment and fear on his face, saying resentfully, "Ancestor, spare me, how can this matter be blamed on me? It was entirely Venerable Huang Long’s incompetence, otherwise, why would it have aroused the other’s suspicion, even informing the elder of the Ten Thousand Islands Sect? This matter has nothing to do with me!"

Upon hearing this, Hong Shuang shuddered, looking incredulously at Hong San; truly her dear brother! Fearful for his life to such an extent, blaming her to survive, a flash of disappointment and heartbreak crossed her eyes, feeling extremely furious at Hong San’s betrayal.

"Ancestor, in this matter, Venerable Huang Long made nearly no mistakes. The only reason was that Nascent Soul boy was too cautious!" At this moment, another Divinity Transformation Demon Venerable interjected.

"Please, Ancestor, discern!" Hong Shuang quickly knelt on one knee, speaking in a trembling voice.

Hearing this, the killing intent from Ancestor Wutian Demon slightly subsided. His scarlet eyes gradually regained clarity. At present, the Nine Demons Sect had suffered great losses, yet their purpose hadn’t been accomplished, and the siblings Hong Shuang and Hong San still had a bit of value.

Ancestor Wutian Demon gave Hong Shuang a deep look and said in a deep voice, "You two have three months, if the Sealed Land isn’t found by then, you won’t be worth keeping!"

Ancestor Wutian Demon’s voice was cold and firm, leaving no room for bargaining.

Clearly, this was the ultimatum from Ancestor Wutian Demon; they must complete this task within three months, or the consequences would be unthinkable.

"Yes!"

Hong Shuang respectfully complied.

During this time, she and her subordinates had been seeking the Sealed Land sought by Ancestor Wutian Demon, and had begun to have some clues. If it weren’t for the unexpected siege, she would have already found this Sealed Land.

"Yes!"

A flash of fear crossed Hong San’s eyes as he responded.

"All of you, get out! Let me be in peace!" Ancestor Wutian Demon looked around at the remaining members and shouted angrily.
