Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons
Chapter 1069 - 676: My Lord Approaches, You Are All But Ants

Chapter 1069: Chapter 676: My Lord Approaches, You Are All But Ants

At that time, the top disciples from the two Great Immortal Sects would conflict over a mount, which would become a ludicrous story if spread.

"Great Tribulation is about to begin, Brother Qingluan must be cautious!"

Seeing Qingluan’s attitude softened today, Hong Jing seized the opportunity to climb up the ladder, quietly changing his tone.

The so-called reopening of heaven and earth, the turning of the sun and moon.

Whenever a great tribulation descends upon the world, it is both a calamity and an opportunity for cultivators.

Therefore, the two saw the conflict between the Bodhi Sect and the Divine Dynasty as normal, seeing it as a sign of the looming tribulation, merely a small wave before a massive tsunami.

The tacit approval of the Immortal Court is indeed the invisible hand pushing this tidal wave.

As Qingluan, a renowned top disciple within the Three Immortals Sect, he surely has to enter the tribulation himself to strive for those elusive opportunities after the Tribulation begins.

In such a moment, with everything still unsettled, how could he possibly afford to offend another Great Immortal Sect within his own Sect first?

If the other side’s sect learned that he had incited this issue, Hong Jing couldn’t help but feel a chill in his back.

"I have my considerations."

Qingluan looked up towards the outside of the hall and stretched out his hand slightly; a divine light swept out: "Order Qian Qing Immortal General, by the Immortal Decree, descend to the mortal realm with five hundred soldiers to help the True God slay demons."

Upon hearing this, Hong Jing’s eyes widened.

The title "True God" was not to be used lightly; these were deities and demons from the inception of heaven and earth, each possessing extraordinary Divine Skills and the ability to regenerate from blood, representing the cosmic order and the majesty of the Immortal Court.

They all garrison the most evil forces in the world.

Other Immortal Officials and Generals from different sects usually avoid being involved; who would send their own underlings there?

Is this to clarify the truth, even at the expense of his own reputation?

"Sigh..."

Hong Jing slowly retracted his palm, looking over with some apprehension.

The importance of that Purple-Bearded White Dragon, it seems, is probably higher than he imagined.

...

Great Nan Continent, outside the Divine Dynasty, Chicken-calling Mountain.

Taking this mountain as the boundary, to the east lies the West Mountain Mansion, under the governance of the Imperial Court, and to the west lies the Eight Extremes Valley where evil runs rampant.

Although it is called a valley, it has long become a world of its own, with many Demon Forces intermingling, gradually tending towards the formation of a Demon Country.

Chicken-calling Mountain, one of the Eight Extremes, is the place closest to the Human World in the valley; Great Demons dare not approach, fearing becoming a thorn in the eyes of the Immortal Court, but there are still many demons, tired of the suffering in the valley, occasionally trying to break through the barrier to enjoy the prosperity of the Human World.

At this moment, it was noon.

A towering figure came from the foot of the mountain, with steady steps, his body drenched in blood, adding a bit of ferocity to his dazzling physique.

Exactly five hundred soldiers and generals awaited at the summit, their expressions indescribably complex.

Apart from the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals brought by Qinghua from the Immortal Court, there stood an even taller figure at the summit, roughly at least thirty zhang in height.

In front of him, even Qinghua’s Golden Body Dharma Identity seemed small.

However, his image was not that of a Golden Body, but rather more akin to a mortal statue, colorful and vibrant as if painted, with a fierce green face and sharp teeth, terrifying yet imbued with a dense majesty.

"..."

Qinghua paused momentarily and saluted: "I, Qian Qing, a Secondary Fifth Grade Immortal General under the command of Lord Qingluan, welcome the Star Constellation to inspect."

The supervisor of the Eight Extremes Valley is one of the Divine Generals of the Taibai Star Constellation in the heavens, known as Qi Feng, skilled in slaughter, ranked as a Secondary Third Grade.

"Hmm."

Qi Feng responded indifferently, his innate fierce gaze sweeping over everyone, finally resting back on Qinghua, focusing on the blood stains on his body, his tone revealing no emotion: "Did Qingluan send you?"

"Yes." Qinghua maintained his saluting posture.

"Making them stand up here like wooden stakes while you alone slay demons, was this your idea?" Qi Feng raised an eyebrow.

Qinghua answered respectfully without arrogance or servility: "Yes."

"What is your explanation?" Qi Feng asked without anger.

"No specific explanation, I just briefly explored and felt this place was too dangerous, not within their responsibility..." Qinghua had not finished speaking when he was interrupted by the Star Constellation.

"You think you offended someone and were sent here, implicating them, feeling guilty?" Qi Feng’s frightening eyes held a deeper meaning.

Unexpectedly, Qinghua remained calm and straightforwardly denied this notion: "I do not think this is any exile, nor do I feel guilty, I simply believe they are not needed here, instead of sending them to their deaths for nothing, better to keep them here, if any issues arise, they can promptly convey to the True Gods."

She couldn’t directly tell him that she was trying to earn more Demon Lifespan for her master, although this statement was indeed true.

Unbeknownst to her, ever since, whether in action or speech, Qinghua has increasingly resembled that young man in the black robe.

What she didn’t notice is that at the moment these words were uttered.

The surrounding Heavenly Soldiers and Generals’ expressions turned even more complex.

To put it harshly, when they received this order, almost everyone started cursing in their hearts.

Being under General Qingluan’s command, they could see that Qian Qing Immortal General wasn’t exactly a "favored person" at the moment; not only did their group have to suffer along, but their lives were at risk, and there was no benefit whatsoever.

But after arriving at Chicken-calling Mountain, everything Qian Qing Immortal General did was clearly witnessed by everyone.

Alone she confronted the demons, holding this checkpoint by herself.

Even now, in front of a Secondary Third Grade True God, this Immortal General harbored no complaints against Lord Qingluan, and deliberately used such language to completely absolve them of responsibility.
