Primordial Era: With unparalleled comprehension, I am the Ancestor of Stars.

Chapter 234 Accepting the Mission

"Knock knock knock"

Just as Taihao finished completing the formalities, before the two had even left, they heard nine deep chimes.

Taihao didn't know what the bell's sound represented, but he could see a heavy look on Li Tianxiao's face.

"What's going on?" Taihao asked Li Tianxiao, who was standing to the side.

"Senior, this is the summons for the great battle. Nine bell tolls represent the highest level of summons. Anyone in the alliance who hears the bell must go immediately." Li Tianxiao looked at Taihao with a heavy expression and said.

"Then let's go too. I'm also very interested in seeing the style of demonic cultivators," Taihao said to Litian with a relaxed smile.

Seeing Taihao's relaxed expression, Li Tianxiao's fear dissipated considerably. Indeed, Taihao had managed to severely injure him within three moves; if he weren't still useful to Taihao, he believed he would have died on the spot long ago.

Upon hearing the bell, the two quickly rushed towards the gathering place.

When the two arrived at the gathering place, there were already many people standing there. Taihao also spotted several familiar figures, namely the Red Girl, the Swordsman and the Swordsman, and the Scholar. They were all powerful experts at the eighth level of the Divine Venerable realm and were fighting in the front positions.

Taihao had long since changed his appearance and aura; he had no intention of fighting these god-level powerhouses here.

Therefore, the four of them only saw Li Tianxiao next to Taihao and did not notice Taihao.

"Go ahead, but don't reveal my identity," Taihao said telepathically to Li Tianxiao.

After listening, Li Tianxiao walked forward without the slightest hesitation. No one noticed anything amiss, but one person did notice something strange about Li Tianxiao.

As he passed by Taihao, he subconsciously moved a little further away from him. It was just a small movement, but he wanted to make sure no one saw it. This person was the scholar. He and Li Tianxiao had been cultivating together for a long time, and their relationship was very good. They were also very familiar with each other. So when the scholar noticed that Li Tianxiao was actually going around someone who was only at the third level of the Divine Venerable realm, although Li Tianxiao wasn't very domineering in the past, if it were the old Li Tianxiao, he would have already flown past him and would never have gone around him.

"Could this person be a powerful expert?" The scholar thought to himself as he looked at Taihao and then at Li Tianxiao, who was already fighting beside him.

However, since Li Tianxiao didn't say anything, he didn't ask.

"Everyone, just now I deduced the Great Dao and sensed that the Demon Clan has recently made a big move, which will be a catastrophe for us." Just as Taihao was looking at the people here, an old voice came out, and a Taoist robe and an old man with a Taoist demeanor appeared in the air.

This person exuded a faint aura of power. Looking at this person, Taihao felt admiration for the people in the top world. As a sixth-level God, his power was not comparable to that of ordinary people.

The old man then continued, "This journey may mean that our final battle with the demonic cultivators is imminent. Although the three guardian families have not yet appeared, I believe they will not abandon us, so we must not diminish the prestige of the righteous path."

"Rest assured, Alliance Leader, we will absolutely not let those demonic cultivators succeed," one of the powerful figures at the ninth level of the Divine Venerable realm standing at the front said loudly.

The sky over the Demon Realm was as gloomy as ever, but now the Demon Realm was filled with more killing intent and bloodshed, and battles were everywhere, extremely fierce.

A chilling aura permeated the entire Demon Realm. Every cultivator who arrived in the Demon Realm possessed an undisguised killing intent. This killing intent soared to the heavens, and those with weak wills could easily lose their composure and become madmen simply because of it.

"The place the alliance leader mentioned is just ahead. Let's be careful."

"The demons have been quiet lately, making no moves. I never imagined they were plotting a bigger conspiracy. If it weren't for the Alliance Leader's foresight, and the demons had actually succeeded, we would have faced annihilation."

"Yes, let's send someone over to check first, then launch a surprise attack and catch them off guard."

Several powerful cultivators at the ninth level of the Divine Venerable realm were discussing their next move.

"You, go and check on the situation of the Demon Clan," one of the ninth-level Divine Venerable experts said, pointing to Taihao not far away.

Taihao never expected that on his first trip with them, he would be given a task. If Taihao wanted to collect the power of faith, he had to do something.

Taihao calmly accepted the task and then walked forward.

Seeing Taihao's calm expression, the group felt somewhat relieved. None of the previous people who received this mission had ever been as calm as Taihao. This mission was extremely dangerous; if the demons discovered it, they would surely die.

They wouldn't have time to rescue them, so no one was willing to accept the mission. Surprisingly, this guy, only at the third level of the Divine Sovereign realm, was able to accept the mission so calmly.

Taihao walked forward in the direction the others were heading. Before long, Taihao arrived at a valley. It was pitch black all around, and he could not see anything. However, Taihao could clearly feel that this place was different from other places. This place was filled with a strong smell of blood and a strong resentment. This resentment was so strong that Taihao felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Taihao spread his divine soul power within a hundred meters around him, and then slowly walked towards the place where the resentment was strongest. With Taihao's divine soul power, as long as he controlled his divine soul within a certain range, even the main god could not easily detect him.

Although a hundred meters is a small distance, it would be enough for Taihao to react if he sensed danger. Taihao slowly walked forward, and suddenly he sensed the presence of many powerful figures ahead, including over a thousand at the God Venerable level and a terrifying number of fifty at the God-level.

Upon sensing this, Taihao felt a chill run down his spine. The situation here was vastly different from what Wang Tianji, the Pavilion Master of Qianji Pavilion, had described earlier.

Wang Tianji said that this place is just a tribe of demonic cultivators, without any powerful beings at the level of a main god. The people of this tribe only know an extremely powerful condensation technique, which can condense extremely powerful magic weapons and humanoid puppets. If they are not eliminated in time, they will be the most difficult force to deal with on the battlefield in the future.

But what Taihao saw now were more than fifty main god-level powerhouses and thousands of god-venerable-level powerhouses. Taihao didn't know if this was just a coincidence or something else.

When Taihao first saw Wang Tianji, although he appeared to be an immortal and dignified person, he sensed a murderous aura within Wang Tianji. Although Wang Tianji had concealed this aura well, Taihao's spiritual power was extremely strong, and he could still sense a trace of it.

Upon seeing this, Taihao didn't linger and tried to retreat back the way he came. However, just as he made a move, he suddenly noticed the auras of many powerful Divine Venerables surrounding him. There were nearly eight hundred of them, all surrounding Taihao. This caused Taihao's expression to change. Although his combat power was very strong, these were over eight hundred powerful Divine Venerables, and half of them were at the eighth or ninth level of the Divine Venerable realm. He simply couldn't break through them in a short time.
