Chapter 190: Preparations Begin for the Ancient Battlefield
"Hahaha! Fellow demons, you are right! Our Panlong Continent has enjoyed seven thousand years of peace, and our friendship is hard-won!"
"How could a mere Nascent Soul cultivator possibly disrupt the peace between our human and demon races! We must focus all our efforts on fighting the battlefield corpse spirits!"
"Yes! Elder Yuwen is absolutely right! This is how humans and demons should be!"
Afterwards, the group of cultivators at the Void Refinement stage engaged in a round of mutual flattery.
The tense atmosphere vanished instantly.
The ancient battlefield has opened ahead of schedule, which is an incredible opportunity for cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage and above.
For the past seven thousand years, the three factions of humans, demons, and monsters have been working hard to repair their relationship in order to gain more benefits in the next ancient battlefield.
As for the tragic death of Yuan Gang, no one mentions him anymore.
Even Yuan Hong himself was too lazy to say it, but at least from now on, he could enjoy all the resources of the ape clan by himself!
Xu Xiao, a handsome middle-aged man with a black goatee, walked up to Duan Hongling and the other elders.
Duan Hongling's beautiful eyes shone as she looked at the rise and fall of Hei Shi's perfectly curved chest.
Although his expression didn't change much, Xu Xiao sensed that the other person was somewhat agitated.
"Junior Brother Xu, congratulations."
"Having survived the tribulation of becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator, I will return to the path of immortality."
When Duan Hongling saw Xu Xiao approaching, her pretty face flickered, her excitement lessened, and a complex look flashed in her beautiful eyes.
The younger Xu junior brother is indeed hard to dislike in terms of appearance.
Elders Zhu, Liu, Wenmu, and several others were extremely excited. Elder Zhu said to Xu Xiao, "Elder Xu! What a stroke of luck! Your tribulation and advancement to the Nascent Soul stage this time is perfect for entering the Ancient Battlefield!"
"Elder Xu, the ancient battlefield is full of opportunities. Your top-tier Void Refinement talisman is a powerful weapon! It might come in very handy!"
Xu Xiao waved his hand and laughed, "There's still a year left, we'll talk about it then."
The excitement on both sides subsided slightly.
The eight demon clan leaders glanced at Xu Xiao with strange looks before leading their group of Nascent Soul elites away.
"Hmph! You scoundrel Xu! If the ancient battlefield weren't about to open, today would be your death day!!"
As soon as Hu Ben and the others left the rocky beach, their expressions instantly turned gloomy.
"Clan leaders! This year is no longer to be wasted! Those cultivators who are capable of advancing, hurry up and begin breaking through to the next realm!"
"This is a rare opportunity, a tremendous stroke of luck for our demon race!!"
The remaining seven clan leaders' eyes gleamed, and their tiger-like vertical pupils revealed a fierce look.
"Before entering the ancient battlefield, we must avoid any further conflict with the human race."
"That scoundrel Xu will definitely go there in a year. At that time, not only will we not only kill him, but we'll also tear that bunch of despicable righteous people to pieces!"
"Damn it, a bunch of hypocrites! They even have top-tier Void Refinement talismans hidden away! You scoundrels!!"
Chief Qingniu blinked his bull-like eyes and said, "Brother Tiger, the ancient battlefield is dangerous. If we rashly confront them... I'm afraid we'll be in danger..."
The remaining clan leaders also had concerns.
"Hahaha! Don't worry! Old Man Yuwen just told me in secret that he will have the demonic path ally with my demon race in this ancient battlefield. The first thing they'll do when they get in is to kill that son of a bitch Xu Xiao!"
"Don't worry, the demonic path hates Xu the scoundrel to the core, they won't go back on their word!"
The demons nodded and smiled.
Demons have formed an alliance! Xu Xiao, you treacherous villain, is doomed!
A rocky beach.
"Amitabha! Liaochen, let's go. Come back here in a year."
The handsome young monk was short in stature, but his appearance was elegant and otherworldly.
After Xu Xiao personally expressed his gratitude, Du Chan bid farewell to everyone and flew away with the group from Wanfo Temple.
Such an important matter requires immediate notification to the sect, and even waking up fellow disciples who are in seclusion.
You'll regret it for the rest of your life if you miss this opportunity!
Miaoyu gave Dao Yi Zhenren some instructions, and the latter immediately led his team back to Daotianmen to report the situation.
Wu Ping'er and Shui Rou bid each other a tender farewell. The former led her team directly back to the Hehuan Sect, while the latter returned to the Shui family headquarters in the Beifeng Kingdom.
In the Shui family of Beifeng Kingdom, the patriarch is responsible for managing the family affairs.
However, Shui Rou is not the strongest member of the family.
Shui Rou's mother, Shui Yun, is the true pillar of the Shui family.
This is also why Murong Yunhe, the ruler of the Northern Wind Kingdom, loved her to the point of obsession, yet never dared to use force.
The five sects of the demonic path stopped arguing and silently flew away in groups, eager to return to their sects to prepare for the ancient battlefield a year later.
On the way, Yuwen Liangong of the Breaking Heaven Demon Sect sneered, "Hao'er, your father has already made an agreement with Hu Ben."
"One year from now, on the ancient battlefield, my Demonic Path will form an alliance with the Demon Race."
Yuwen Hao was immediately excited, "Father, is it true?!"
"Naturally, and the first thing to do after forming the alliance is to kill Xu Xiao."
A mocking smile flashed across Yuwen Liangong's cold, stern face. "It's just a Void Refinement Talisman. You're treating it like a treasure. At most, it'll just kill one Void Refinement cultivator."
"Thank you, Father!!"
Yuwen Hao was excited; his father had intervened.
Old dog Xu!
This time, I'll see how you die!
On the other side, Dongfang Suhua, the beautiful woman in purple from the Polar Demon Sect, said, "Muhe, I have just agreed to the proposal of the Breaking Heaven Demon Sect to form an alliance with the demon race in the ancient battlefield a year later and kill Xu Xiao."
Xiao Muhe and the elders were immediately excited.
Xiao Muhe quickly flattered, "Elder, you are truly wise!!!"
"Xu Laogou, you lecherous monster, you despicable and shameless bastard! He should have died long ago!!"
Dongfang Suhua nodded: "Not only that, he survived two tribulations and obtained a great repair cave. He will be a great enemy of our demonic path in the future."
"We must eliminate them before they rise to power."
Xiao Muhe nodded repeatedly, his mouth full of flattery.
Elder Dongfang!
Not only is she beautiful and charming, but she is also incredibly intelligent!
She will definitely become his most reliable and capable wife in the future!
As expected of my Eastern wife!!!
Old dog Xu!!!
You've infuriated this genius! I'll see how you die a year from now!!!
This time, Xiao Muhe was almost so angry that he suffered internal injuries.
The Nascent Soul cultivators who had been watching from the rocky beach had all left, eager to return and report the news from the ancient battlefield.
Of course, there was also the old lecher who survived two tribulations of lightning.
But compared to the ancient battlefield, Xu Xiao's matter became insignificant.
After all, at most the other party can only infuriate them, while the ancient battlefield is a real opportunity!
Miaoyu, the Nightmare Maiden, glanced at Xu Xiao and then returned to Iron Curtain City first.
Zhuge Wufang summoned the members of the Misty Sect and said, "Hongling, you guys, and Xiao Xu, go back to Iron Curtain City to pack your things."
"All of them must return to their sects to report within one month."
"The ancient battlefield will open in a year. My Misty Sect must prepare for the war with all its might. This is a once-in-ten-thousand-years war that can determine the fate of the sect!"
Zhuge Wufang's expression turned solemn as his previous smile vanished.
Despite their playful and smiling demeanor, the demons and monsters might turn on each other the moment they enter the ancient battlefield.
Everyone nodded.
Zhuge Wufang continued, "Little Xu, although you have only just reached the Nascent Soul stage, you have four divine swords and your strength has reached the Void Refinement stage. We will go to the Ancient Battlefield together in a year. Remember to bring your Void Refinement talisman."
Xu Xiao blinked. "Okay."
"Elder Yi will temporarily guard the Iron Curtain City outpost. There should be no war this year, and the demon race will also be fully preparing for the ancient battlefield."
At this point, Zhuge Wufang seemed to recall something, and a slight glint appeared in his eyes as he said:
"Little Xu, hurry back to the sect after you go to Iron Curtain City."
"Now that you've cultivated to the Nascent Soul realm, I'll take you to my Misty Sect's secret realm to familiarize yourself with it, and while we're at it, I'll tell your master about the ancient battlefield."
Xu Xiao's eyes flickered.
Master?
Memories flooded back, and Xu Xiao was slightly lost in thought.
His master, Ji Xue, was his peerless, elegant, and beautiful teacher...
