Immortality: Starting with a grave, I'm invincible when burying corpses.

Mu An only stayed at Dongji Pass for half a month.

Just as Jun Cheng'an and Shen Yunwei had said, the six demon saints who ruled the Demon Court of the Myriad Spirits Domain appeared at the foot of Dongji Pass on the seventh day.

But as Mu An had predicted, the demon saints of the Myriad Spirits Domain simply did not have the courage to fight the Great Qi to the death.

These demon saints knew better than anyone else that even if they won the war against the Great Qi in the secular sense, it wouldn't change the fact that the demon race was declining.

The gap in top-level combat power between the human and demon races is too great, so great that it is impossible to bridge.

No matter how much trouble or killing occurs on the frontier, it's all fine.

But if they really want to fight to the death, focusing on slaughtering mortals and playing a base-trading tactic, the consequences would be unimaginable.

If this gets out of hand, the human land immortals won't stand idly by.

The Celestial Master's fame extends throughout the Nine Realms; no one is unaware of him, not even demons.

That move hundreds of years ago terrified all the terrestrial immortals in the world.

The six demon saints all understood that if they truly angered the human race and forced them to mobilize in full force, it would be questionable whether the demon race could continue to exist.

Therefore, their goal has always been to cause trouble on the border, gradually encroaching on the territory of Daqi, so that the Wanling Domain can avoid fighting on its own soil when it goes to war with the human race.

The sudden incident in Wangliu City ruined their plan to conquer Donghua Prefecture and enraged the entire Demon Court.

Logically speaking, since Daqi was the one who broke the rules first and this happened, the demon race has no reason not to demand an explanation from Daqi.

However, the problem lies precisely here: the one who made the move was an extremely powerful terrestrial deity, not some insignificant nobody.

The demon race dared to demand the head of the border general from the Great Qi Dynasty and dared to slaughter the people in the war zone, but they dared not make a terrestrial immortal pay a heavy price.

No amount of common people or generals can compare to the value of a terrestrial deity.

After all, if a terrestrial deity were to truly go mad, the extent of the destruction they could cause would be immeasurable.

The six great demon saints each have their own clans, rather than being solitary figures. They have too many concerns and are unwilling to push a terrestrial immortal to the brink.

Taking all factors into consideration, the six great demon saints simultaneously appeared outside the Eastern Pole Pass.

The overwhelming demonic power permeated the sky, turning half the world brown, and thick black clouds pressed down on the city, creating a magnificent spectacle.

Just as the soldiers in the city were so frightened that they were preparing to write their wills, the demonic power permeating the world suddenly converged, transforming into a vortex that connected heaven and earth, swallowing up all the demonic power in the world.

Sunlight shone through the thick clouds and fell upon the earth. The Demon Emperor Qingyu's grand voice resounded throughout the entire Dongji Pass, allowing the soldiers to relax their tense hearts once again.

"Emperor of the Great Qi Dynasty, come out and negotiate!"

Oh, it was a negotiation! That was terrifying!

Negotiation is good! I almost thought the gods and monsters were about to fight again! Fighting is not allowed.

After fighting for so many years, these soldiers finally understood.

When gods and monsters fight, it may seem like a fierce battle, but in reality, they don't even get their clothes dirty afterward, and they immediately go back to the negotiating table.

But these ordinary people are unlucky; they might lose their lives at any time.

It doesn't matter how far apart they are. When gods fight, distance is the least useful thing. As the fight goes on, these powerful beings will just end up on top of them.

The earthquakes were so devastating that the aftershocks alone could wipe out the soldiers.

In the years of fighting, no fewer than 100,000 soldiers have died as a result of the battles between the powerful forces. Not a single body has been found. They died a terrible death!

It's not worth it, it's not worth it. If I'm going to die, I should die on the battlefield fighting against the demons.

At least dying in battle against the demon race is sacrificing oneself for the country, and can at least provide some compensation for the family. Isn't that much better than being killed by the aftermath of a battle between gods?

In war, people always die.

You get used to death after seeing it so many times.

They only asked that their families receive more government compensation after their deaths, that their lives become easier, that they could be proud of themselves, and that they wouldn't have to cry so bitterly and sadly.

Everyone dies eventually; they just died a little earlier.

Only by thinking this way can they be less afraid and persevere in this war until now.

……

The series of actions not only baffled the soldiers in the city, but also Mu An inside Dongji Pass.

In Mu An's mind, these demon saints should at least have a fight with them, as a way of showing their stance.

He had it all planned out: he would deal with one of the three land immortals in the city, and he would take care of the remaining three demon saints all by himself.

Without the power of the Book of Creation, Mu An felt that he was only slightly stronger than an ordinary terrestrial immortal, and could probably only be considered in the middle tier.

Without some special opportunity, it's no longer possible to improve as rapidly as before.

The Great Dao he comprehended came from the heavens and the earth. Once you reach a certain level, there's not much more you can comprehend. You can only rely on time to slowly hone your skills and improve little by little.

But if the Book of Creation were used to construct the cycle of heaven and earth, Mu An dares to say that he is now not much weaker than the Painting Sage.

As a precious treasure that came into this world with me, the mysteries of the Book of Creation need no further explanation.

Even though Mu An has only turned the first page of the book so far, it has greatly improved him.

When the Blood Robe Cult created the plague, the Painting Sage spent a day preparing and covered the entire Lingzhou with a painting.

Mu An has never been able to replicate such exquisite techniques, which is why Mu An judged that the Painting Saint's strength was above his own.

But that was the Painting Saint, who had successfully risen to become the third-ranked super master in the world a few years ago.

Looking across the nine realms of the world, only the Celestial Master and the Xuanling Bodhisattva of Buddhism are stronger than him.

Even the Thunder Qilin, the sacred beast of Tianming Domain that was previously ranked third in the world, was overshadowed by the Painting Saint and dropped to fourth place.

Three demon saints from the Myriad Spirits Realm?

Tsk—

What trash! Even when trying to scam someone, you can't do it like this. Just beat them all up and they'll learn their lesson.

only……

The demon saints of the Myriad Spirits Domain are all more sensible than Mu An had imagined.

Using the toughest attitude to do the most cowardly things.

When Mu An saw the overwhelming demonic aura, his hand was already on his sword. He never expected that the seemingly powerful Demon Emperor would be so cautious and brave.

Mu An didn't want to go into details about what happened next. In short, it was all kinds of bickering, with a group of big shots arguing like old men and women at the village entrance.

They argued back and forth about the issue of compensation between the two parties.

The Demon Emperor demanded an exorbitant price, but Jun Cheng'an relentlessly pressured him to lower it.

After arguing for a while, Mu An got fed up and, in front of the two emperors, cleaved the negotiating table in two with a single sword stroke.

"You're all so annoying! Let's fight! Whoever wins decides! I'm in a hurry, all five of you come at me!"

"Exactly, all this arguing is so annoying, let's just settle things with our fists." This was a crocodile demon that stood up to be at least twenty meters tall.
