I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 613 - 335: Sealed Land (Part 2)

However, it was impossible to completely eradicate the hidden forces of the Nine Demons Sect scattered in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region. On the contrary, as time passed and after the failure of the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm battle, the power of the Nine Demons Sect in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region not only wasn’t weakened but grew even stronger.

This news made Li Mu uneasy and prompted him to reevaluate his own issues, unable to understand why the Nine Demons Sect targeted him despite his low-profile conduct over the years, as if an invisible net was enveloping him, slowly tightening.

Unable to comprehend why the Nine Demons Sect set their eyes on him, Li Mu needed to replan his upcoming actions. Relying solely on his own strength was difficult to confront the Nine Demons Sect and the immense force behind it, the Demon Abyss.

...

In the Baisha Sea Region, a few miles from the Ten Thousand Stars Island, there existed a trench thousands of feet deep, perpetually shrouded in gloom, seemingly hiding endless horror and secrets. Within this trench, the Nine Demons Sect built a concealed underwater demon lair.

The entrance to the lair was hidden deep within the trench, surrounded by massive black reef rocks, forming a natural barrier. Near the entrance to the demon lair, a strong scent of blood lingered, and resentful demon qi gathered, sketching out a demon array.

The interior of the demon lair was even more eerie and sinister, with sharp rock spikes all around, akin to torture devices used by the Nine Demons Sect to imprison and torment cultivators. From deep within the lair, faint screeches of agony and maniacal laughter echoed, permeating with a suffocating aura.

The grand hall of the demon lair was indeed the core area of the entire lair, not only expansive but also filled with mystery and majesty. At this moment, atop the main seat in the hall sat a powerhouse from the Demon Abyss at the Integration Realm—the Blood Demon Lord, Dana.

Dana had a conspicuous pair of horns on his head, and his skin was a profound blood-red, seemingly harboring endless bloodline power. His towering figure was like a mountain, exuding an indescribable sense of oppression, with a presence of blood and terror that could make any living being shudder.

On either side of Dana stood four Void Blood Demons, their gazes respectful, their presence intimidating and awe-inspiring.

Beneath the grand hall, several demon ancestors of the Nine Demons Sect and dozens of Divinity Transformation Demon Venerables stood solemnly, their eyes showing reverence and fear. Among them were the siblings Hong Shan and Hong Shuang, who dared not breathe heavily.

At this moment, the entire grand hall was exceptionally solemn, filled with a heavy atmosphere as everyone’s gaze focused on Dana, awaiting his words.

Dana’s gaze was icy and profound as he looked at Ancestor Wutian and the demon cultivators, coldly asking, "So, you’ve found the Sealed Land, located within Biyuan Daoist Monarch’s Water Mansion Restriction?"

Ancestor Wutian quickly responded, "Yes, after years of searching, we also found the whereabouts of the Water Mansion Key. This item was originally a revered treasure guarded by the White Whale Race for ten thousand years. However, some time ago, this item fell into the hands of someone named Li Mu, who has a Tribulation Crossing Tier Seven Cyan Dragon as a beast. This artifact should already be in the hands of this Nascent Soul Cultivator."

"A mere Nascent Soul Cultivator, able to command a Tier Seven Cyan Dragon as a beast?" Blood Demon Lord Dana’s expression slightly startled, asking perplexedly. In his understanding, while Nascent Soul Cultivators were strong, it was nearly impossible for them to command such a powerful demon beast as a Tier Seven Cyan Dragon.

A Tier Seven True Dragon, proud and unruly, stronger even than a Void Refining Cultivator, how could such a being submit to a Nascent Soul Cultivator? It was simply overturning his recognition.

Ancestor Wutian’s expression became stern, earnestly introducing, "This child cannot be viewed as an ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator. He achieved the Nascent Soul Realm at the age of a hundred, practicing the Ancient Five Elements Technique, and his swordsmanship, beast taming technique, and body refining skill have all reached extremely high levels. More shockingly, he is also a Tier Six Refining Grandmaster,... Moreover, this child has already slain over a dozen of our sect’s Divinity Transformation Demon Venerables, and two Void Refining Demon Ancestors,..." Ancestor Wutian radiated strong killing intent as he spoke.

"If this child continues to grow, it wouldn’t be impossible for him to promote to the Realm of Daoist Monarch in the future!" Ancestor Wutian paused, finally evaluating.

Hearing this conclusion, everyone’s spirits were collectively invigorated.

The Daoist Monarch Realm, a pinnacle existence countless cultivators dream and strive for, such talent would make any power feel dread and vigilance.

Blood Demon Lord Dana’s eyes flickered with a fierce killing intent as he deeply regarded Ancestor Wutian, speaking in an even colder voice, "Since that’s the case, we cannot let this Nascent Soul Cultivator continue to live!"

"Since this Water Mansion Key is in the hands of this Nascent Soul Cultivator, why haven’t you taken action yet?" Blood Demon Lord Dana’s gaze was icy as he fixed his stare on Ancestor Wutian, his tone filled with displeasure and anger.

Blood Demon Lord Dana’s voice echoed throughout the grand hall, causing everyone’s heart to tremble.

Ancestor Wutian helplessly gave a bitter smile, explaining with a hint of bitterness, "Sect Master, this child is cautious by nature, having been hiding on the Ten Thousand Stars Island for years, rarely venturing outside. We’ve employed various methods, dispatched many personnel, yet couldn’t easily approach him, even losing quite a few men."

Ancestor Wutian’s voice conveyed deep helplessness, evidently troubled by this unresolved Nascent Soul Cultivator.

"Moreover, the Ten Thousand Islands Sect and the Sea God Sect, together with other sea race forces, constantly monitor our actions, causing significant casualties. In such circumstances, apart from forcefully invading the Ten Thousand Stars Island, there’s no way to kill him!" Ancestor Wutian deeply sighed, responding.

After listening to Ancestor Wutian’s explanation, Blood Demon Lord Dana couldn’t help but feel somewhat overwhelmed. This Nascent Soul Cultivator indeed posed a massive threat, but eliminating him wasn’t easy. The Profound Celestial Sword Sect, Taiyi Sect, and other Central Continent forces continuously sent reinforcements to support the Ten Thousand Stars Sea Region, fortifying the Ten Thousand Stars Island like a porcupine, impervious to attacks. With this Nascent Soul Cultivator staying holed up, apart from forcefully attacking the Ten Thousand Stars Island, there was indeed no other way to deal with him at the moment.

Blood Demon Lord Dana’s eyes flickered with contemplative light, this Nascent Soul Cultivator must be dealt with swiftly, and the Water Mansion Key obtained sooner rather than later, as the longer it dragged on, the more variables could arise.

As for forcefully attacking the Ten Thousand Stars Island, for now, the accumulated forces were still insufficient, and the time was not yet ripe.

Blood Demon Lord Dana immediately abandoned the idea of a strong attack.

"Thus, the only option is to attempt an assassination! Mo Qian, give it a try!" Blood Demon Lord Dana turned his gaze towards a Void subordinate beside him, weighing his words heavily.

Mo Qian was a Void Blood Demon within the Blood Demon Race, adept in assassination and possessing the Shadowless Divine Techniques. He mastered the Shadowless Blood Realm, skilled in disguise and escape transformation skills, capable of appearing anywhere in a blink, his speed and body technique unmatched, the most elite High Tier assassin in the Blood Demon Race.

"Yes!" Mo Qian respectfully accepted the order, his figure instantly vanishing from sight.

In the next moment, Mo Qian’s form turned into a blood-red streak, disappearing without a trace. His presence seemed to merge with the air and sea water, leaving no shadow or trace, elusive to all.

Ancestor Wutian watched the direction where Mo Qian disappeared, initially wanting to say something, but upon meeting Blood Demon Lord Dana’s gaze, he swallowed his words back down. He knew that Dana’s decision was already made, and any words were futile.

The entire grand hall sank into silence, with everyone’s gaze following the direction Mo Qian had disappeared, fully aware that his mission was extremely dangerous, especially given the formidable figures on the Ten Thousand Stars Island, carrying out an assassination would be no easy feat.

However, with a Void assassin risking his life to personally take action, he should be able to thoroughly resolve that troublesome Nascent Soul Cultivator!

Hong Shan displayed a complex expression on his face, feeling a sense of revenge fulfilled yet regretful for not being able to personally act.
