Primordial Era: Cultivation level equals the sum of the Jie Sect's total; the Three Pure Ones a

"The demon race... has been making a lot of moves lately?"

Xuandu withdrew his gaze and looked at Suirenshi.

Suirenshi took a deep breath, suppressing the surging grief and indignation in his heart, and offered the dim and broken bone fragment in his hand with both hands:

"Master, please take a look."

"Since you went to the North Sea, the demon race has made a comeback."

"They specifically target newly formed human tribes that have not yet joined your sect and have not received the protection of the Jie Sect's fortune."

"Slaughtering one place in three days, wiping out an entire tribe in five days..."

"To date... thirty-seven newly formed tribes have been completely wiped out."

"Those...those newly born humans, who can't even speak yet..."

Suirenshi's voice choked with emotion, and tears streamed down his face:

"They were all drained of their life essence, leaving no trace of their bodies."

"The demon race... intends to forge the sword to slay witches using the blood of my human race!"

"Bang!"

Youchao, unable to contain himself any longer, smashed the blue stone beside him to pieces with a single punch:

"They're completely unreasonable!"

"The leader of the team is at least a Taiyi Golden Immortal, and Great Luo Demon Gods have appeared frequently!"

"Although the three of us have broken through to the early stage of the Great Luo realm, we are utterly powerless to stop veteran demon gods like Jiuying and Bai Ze!"

Ziyi, her eyes also reddening, gritted her teeth and said:

"I have already informed several of my close fellow cultivators, and they are willing to lend a helping hand."

"But... it's a drop in the ocean."

"This time, the demon race is determined to eradicate the very foundation of our human race!"

Every word is written in tears, every sentence is filled with sorrow.

Xuan Du listened quietly, his expression calm and composed.

But deep within those eyes, it was as if ten thousand years of ice had been frozen, radiating a chilling killing intent that made one's soul tremble!

What a demonic court!

What a magnificent Di Jun Tai Yi!

A hundred years ago, on the shores of the East China Sea, he used his status as a direct disciple of the Jie Sect and the karma of Nuwa to force back two demon emperors, hoping to give the human race a hundred-year respite.

Unexpectedly...

The demon race has never given up!

They just used a different method!

They specifically targeted newly minted humans who had not yet become disciples, thus avoiding direct conflict with the Jie Sect while continuing to collect human blood essence to forge the Witch-Slaying Sword!

This plan...

How vicious!

How insidious!

"Good...very good."

Xuan Du spoke slowly, his voice calm, yet it was like a cold wind from the depths of hell, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet!

The three Suirenshi trembled as they felt an indescribable, terrifying pressure emanating from Xuandu!

Although it wasn't specifically targeted at them, it still made them tremble with fear, almost causing them to kneel on the ground!

The wrath of a Primordial Golden Immortal at its peak...

The world changed color!

"Master, please calm your anger!"

Suirenshi immediately bowed:

"This matter... may require further consideration."

"The demon race is powerful, and with the added threat of the Zhou Tian Star Array, a direct confrontation would be terrifying..."

"Should we take a longer-term view?"

Xuan Du interrupted him, a flash of chaotic sword light appearing in his eyes:

"My people are being slaughtered."

"For every moment of delay, countless infants are drained of their life essence, leaving no trace of their remains."

"You want me to... reconsider?"

He slowly took a step forward.

"boom!"

A vast and profound primordial Daoist aura suddenly erupted and soared into the sky!

Sensing his aura, the Martial Dao Heavenly Stele suddenly shone brightly, its body trembled, and emitted a deafening roar!

Within a hundred miles, all the human disciples who were cultivating felt something and opened their eyes, looking towards the direction of the ancestral land!

"Since the demon race doesn't follow the rules..."

Xuan Du raised his hand, and the light of the Qingmeng Sword flowed in his palm, while the illusory image of the Jietian Sword slowly condensed.

"Then let them know..."

"What are rules!"

The words had barely left his mouth!

"Clang!"

The Heaven-Slaying Sword solidified completely and was held in his hand!

The sword's body flowed with chaotic colors, and an unparalleled sword intent that severed the Heavenly Dao and surpassed all laws soared into the sky, tearing through the clouds and shaking the eight wastelands!

"Today, I will use the blood of the demon god..."

"A sacrifice to the souls of my fallen humankind!"

"With the face of the Demon Emperor..."

"To establish the dignity of our human race!"

The sound was like thunder, rolling and spreading, sweeping across the entire coast of the East China Sea, and even spreading towards the primordial world!

"Master!"

The three Suirenshi were so excited that they trembled all over and their blood rushed to their head!

A century of forbearance, a century of grief and indignation!

today......

We've finally waited for this moment!

Master Xuandu... must seek justice for the human race!

The Xuandu Heaven-Slaying Sword hummed like a dragon's roar, causing ripples to spread throughout the surrounding void.

The three members of Suirenshi were still immersed in their master's overwhelming killing intent and determination when they heard his next order, which made them all stunned.

"Pass down the order."

Xuan Du withdrew his gaze from the sky, his voice calm yet carrying an undeniable air of authority:

"Using the torch as a signal, and the Martial Arts Monument as a guide."

"Summon all humans who have become my disciples!"

He paused, then spoke each word clearly and distinctly:

"Everyone, regardless of their cultivation level, age, or gender."

"All those who recite my name and inherit my martial arts must gather at the foot of the Martial Arts Heavenly Stele on the shore of the East Sea within three days."

"..."

Suirenshi's hand tightened suddenly on the firewood staff, a look of surprise flashing across his aged face.

Youchao and Ziyi looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion.

"Master..."

Suirenshi took a deep breath, suppressing the surging doubts in his heart, and cautiously asked:

"You mean...all humans who take on disciples? Regardless of their cultivation level?"

He paused, then added:

"Of the billions of humans who have now become your disciples, ninety-nine percent of them have only just stepped into the threshold of martial arts, and many have not even achieved the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation stage."

"Those who have truly entered the Celestial Immortal realm, possessing the power to fly and participate in great battles, number no more than ten million."

"If you want to conquer the demon court, why not...?"

"Why not just send a human with cultivation skills?"

Ziyi, standing to the side, couldn't help but speak up, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion:

"In Xuandu, humans below the level of Celestial Immortal would find it difficult to even endure a long journey, let alone fly to the Thirty-Third Heaven."

"What is the purpose of gathering them all here?"

Although Youchao did not speak, his furrowed brows and the way he looked at Xuandu revealed the same question.

Xuan Du looked at the three of them, and a meaningful smile slowly appeared on his lips.

He didn't answer directly, but instead asked:

Do you know who I am now?

Suirenshi was taken aback, then respectfully said:

"You are the teacher of my human race, the ancestor of martial arts, the vice leader of the Jie Sect, and a personal disciple of the Sage Tongtian."

"good."

Xuan Du nodded slightly, his gaze deep:

"As a teacher of the human race, I should protect the human race and seek justice for the dead."

"But I am also the vice leader of the Jie Sect."

He abruptly changed the subject, his tone turning cold:

"If I were to directly attack the Demon Court right now, with the body of a Primordial Golden Immortal and wielding the might of the Heaven-Slaying Sword, I could slay the Demon God and destroy the Demon Court..."

"What do you think the primordial saints would think?"

The three Suirenshi were terrified!

They instantly understood the deeper meaning behind Xuandu's words!

Although the Jie Sect is powerful and the Sage Tongtian is protective of his own, if Xuandu attacks the Demon Court without any reason, it would be tantamount to deliberately provoking a full-scale war between the great sects of the sages!

At that time, not only will Yuanshi Tianzun seize the opportunity to make a fuss, but even the transcendent Taiqing Saint, Nuwa, and the two Western Saints will probably feel dissatisfied with the Jie Sect.

After all, the Demon Court is still nominally the orthodox power of the primordial world, ruling over all races and maintaining the order of heaven and earth.

To launch a reckless attack without a legitimate reason is to defy the heavens and be an enemy of the entire prehistoric order!

Furthermore, he is one of the main characters in the current great calamity.

"so......"

A glint flashed in Ziyi's eyes, as if he had grasped something:

"What you want... is a legitimate reason for your actions?"

"Exactly."

Xuan Du nodded slowly, his eyes shimmering with chaotic light:

"The demon race slaughters the human race and extracts their blood to forge swords. This is a blood feud that cannot be reconciled."

"but......"

His voice suddenly turned cold:

"They slaughtered those new humans who had not become my disciples and had not received the protection of the Jie Sect's fortune."

"In the eyes of the demon race, those humans... are not considered disciples of the Jie Sect."

"Therefore, they dared to act recklessly because they calculated that as long as they did not directly harm the disciples of the Jie Sect, I would have no reason to directly attack the Demon Court as the vice leader of the Jie Sect."

Upon hearing this, the three members of the Suiren clan felt a chill and indignation surge in their hearts.

What a vicious scheme!

What a cunning tactic!

"But...they forgot one thing."

The smile on Xuan Du's lips grew increasingly cold.

"When I, Xuandu, accept disciples, I accept hundreds of millions of human beings."

"Among these billions of human beings, there are certainly those who have already embarked on the path of martial arts and achieved considerable cultivation."

"But more often, they are ordinary clansmen who have just stepped into the threshold of martial arts, or even just recite my name and inherit my way."

"They...are also my disciples."

He raised his eyes, gazing at the sky gradually being tainted by demonic energy, his voice as cold as ancient ice:

"Since the demon race dares to attack our human race."

"Then I will have these billions of humans surround the Demon Court."

"I want to see if Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi dare to lay a finger on them again, right in front of me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them felt a current shoot straight from their spines to the top of their heads, and the hair on their bodies stood on end!

They finally understood Xuandu's plan!

With the supreme power of a Primordial Golden Immortal, he led billions of humans and descended directly to the 33rd Heaven outside the Demon Court!

All the human disciples were like the most indestructible shield, densely surrounding the Demon Court!

At that time!

If the demon race dares to make another move, it will be an open massacre of the disciples of the Jie Sect in front of Xuandu!

If Xuandu were to make another move, it would be with a legitimate cause: to fight to protect the sect and to seek justice for his disciples!

Even a sage would have nothing to say!

If the demon race doesn't intervene...

Then the spectacle of billions of humans besieging the Demon Court will spread throughout the prehistoric world, becoming an indelible shame for the Demon Court!

How could Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, these two proud and arrogant demon emperors who valued their reputation above all else, tolerate this?

Even if the two of them don't make a move, Xuandu will send several humans to provoke them.

Like the Han envoy, they sought death.

Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi will definitely make a move!

As long as they make a move...

A cold glint flashed in Xuan Du's eyes.

That was the murderous intent he had been waiting for!
