Chapter 393: Chapter 335: Qin Zheng’s Promotion! Two Clans Scheme! (4000 words)_2

After speaking, the ten top Heavenly Immortals nodded gently.

Seated at the first position on the right, a top Heavenly Immortal resembling a scholar and strategist paused to think before asking aloud,

"There are only seven out of the eleven border cities of the Human race guarded by top Heavenly Immortals. Which one should we attack?"

Upon hearing this, the two ministers immediately spoke up, "Among the seven top Heavenly Immortals of the Human race, Chonghe is the strongest and Funian is the weakest. We shall not choose either of them."

"We will choose Xiaoyao, who is slightly weaker and took part in the last Immortal Ruins battle, as our target!"

"We shall use his blood to commemorate the souls of our Demon race who perished in the catastrophe of the Immortal Ruins!"

...

The Human race, Zhen’an City.

Deep within the City Lord’s Mansion.

Upon a cool pavilion, two figures sat opposite each other, with steaming hot tea between them, its white steam curling upward.

"Aren’t you angry that the kid killed Su Haoyue?"

Immortal Lord Dongyang lifted the hot tea, took a gentle sip, and then spoke.

Sitting opposite him was none other than Immortal Lord Chonghe.

"If someone deserved to die, then let them be killed. There’s nothing to be angry about," Immortal Lord Chonghe laughed and shook his head.

Yet, after a few moments of silence, he sighed and added, "The Human race is too weak."

"After all, Su Haoyue was a Human race Heavenly Immortal on the verge of becoming a top one. I tried to save him, but alas, it was to no avail."

Immortal Lord Dongyang gave a light smile, then said, "The kid’s strength is tenfold, a hundredfold stronger than Su Haoyue’s. There’s no need for regret."

"Moreover, the current situation between the Human and Demon races cannot be turned around by just one top Heavenly Immortal. What’s most important is which side will next produce someone above the rank of Heavenly Immortal."

Immortal Lord Chonghe nodded but still sighed, "If only we could have one more top level, that would also be good."

Immortal Lord Dongyang gave a light smile and didn’t argue the point any further. Instead, his expression turned solemn, and he said, "Since the Demon race will not stop at this, what do you think they will do next?"

At the mention of this question, Immortal Lord Chonghe also took on a solemn expression and immediately began to ponder.

After a few moments, he spoke, "Given the nature of the Demon race, after suffering such a huge loss this time, if they are intent on waging war, it will likely be a major battle!"

Immortal Lord Dongyang nodded and replied, "You think the same as I do. However, this time, they may have another goal."

Before he could finish speaking, Immortal Lord Chonghe seriously interjected, "Qin Zheng!"

Immortal Lord Dongyang nodded, "Yes!"

Then, with a grave look, he continued, "The current impasse between the Human and Demon races has become entrenched."

"The emergence of the Peerless Immortal Sword has eliminated the Demon race’s possibility of annihilating our Human race, but at the same time, the Human race is too weak in all aspects compared to the Demon race."

"So, the current situation depends on which side will produce the next individual above a Heavenly Immortal."

"If another individual above a Heavenly Immortal emerges from the Demon race, the Peerless Immortal Sword will no longer be able to stop the many Monster Gods of the Demon Emperor Palace."

"Similarly, if the Human race produces another individual above a Heavenly Immortal, and they coordinate with the Peerless Immortal Sword, we could very likely completely reverse the situation!"

"Among the Demon race, there is already one with sufficient foundation, who has stayed in the Demon Emperor Palace year-round, protected by the Seven Great Demon Gods, and is very likely to ascend!"

"Apart from that individual, the ruler of Wancheng Demon Nation is also full of ambition."

"He has kept himself hidden, never personally taking action. I suspect his accumulation has reached its peak, and he’s plotting to ascend!"

"As for the Human race, we’ve waited tens of thousands of years to finally have Qin Zheng, giving us a glimmer of hope for breaking the impasse."

"Yet as strong as his talent may be, he has simply not cultivated for long enough, and we do not have enough power to protect him."

As Immortal Lord Dongyang slowly spoke, Immortal Lord Chonghe also furrowed his brows slightly.

However, he quickly picked up on the implicit suggestion in Dongyang’s words and immediately asked, "What are you planning to do?"

Immortal Lord Dongyang answered without hesitation, "I want to send Qin Zheng to Wanli Green Mountain!"

Upon hearing this, Immortal Lord Chonghe’s pupils shrank instantly, and he quickly said, "That place is being watched by the Seven Great Demon Gods. Are you sending him to his death?"

Immortal Lord Dongyang calmly replied, "But the same location is also under the watch of our Human race’s Peerless Immortal Sword!"

"With the Peerless Immortal Sword watching over him and the Absolute Immortal Wooden Sword in Qin Zheng’s hands, he will surely reach the location of the Peerless Immortal Sword."

"Once there, the protection of the Peerless Immortal Sword will ensure the safety of Qin Zheng."

"And with his talent, he will ascend above a Heavenly Immortal one day!"

"By then, even if the Human race is annihilated by the Demon race, the cooperation of the Peerless Immortal Sword with Qin Zheng will surely enable the entire Human race to take revenge!"

"This is the greatest possibility we can achieve, the only way to ensure his safe growth beyond the status of a Heavenly Immortal!"

"Otherwise, if the Demon race learns that Qin Zheng has reached the top of the Supreme Tower, they will surely stop at nothing to suppress him before he matures!"

Hearing this, Immortal Lord Chonghe fell into silence.

Time seemed to slow to a crawl at this moment.

Only after a short while did he let out a soft sigh and said, "In that case, your approach is indeed the most prudent."

Immortal Lord Dongyang said with a smile, "Our chances of victory are too slim, we can only constantly embrace the belief that the entire Human race is doomed to perish, to think, to fight."

Immortal Lord Chonghe nodded in agreement and then responded, "Alright, I agree to this matter. We will see what the others have to say."

After all...

Heading to Wanli Green Mountain, there’s a great chance of not returning!

Who will escort Qin Zheng? This is a huge problem!

The two reached an agreement and Immortal Lord Dongyang stood up, about to say something else when—

Hum!

A ripple in space suddenly caught their attention.

Both turned their heads instantly, looking toward the source of the disturbance, and said in a focused tone, "They’re here!"

...

Hum!

When the last strand of Innate Merit had brought its enhancements to an end,

a humming sound emerged from the Inner Heaven and Earth.

Qin Zheng’s spirit and gaze were closely focused on his own Inner Heaven and Earth.

He saw that the vast expanse of void, no longer as it was at the beginning, with only dozens of stars, so empty.

Now, nearly three thousand stars, shining brightly, were slowly rotating in the void.

And at the center, the Tree of Dao had already grown to about thirty feet tall, radiating an even more rich and mysterious Taoist Essence.

A powerful aura instantly emanated from the Inner Heaven and Earth.

However...

Looking at the unripe fruits under the dense leaves of the Tree of Dao, Qin Zheng let out a slight sigh in his heart.

After being nourished by five strands of Innate Merit, his Realm had already reached the peak of an Earth Immortal, just one step away from ascending to a Heavenly Immortal.

Yet this one step required another strand of Innate Merit to cross.

However, Qin Zheng quickly adjusted his mindset and quashed any similar feelings of regret.

Cultivation has always been about taking one step at a time. With the aid of the Merit Scroll, the speed of his enhancement was already beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

If he became greedy, he feared he would indulge his desires, preventing him from maintaining the purity of his heart.

Realizing this, Qin Zheng discarded all miscellaneous thoughts, purifying his mind once more.

Then feeling his current condition, a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Although he had not ascended to a Heavenly Immortal, it was not due to a lack of Innate Merit, but rather because his accumulation was too profound.

As a result, although he was only at the peak of an Earth Immortal, Qin Zheng could feel his combat power transforming once again.

Now, he feared that without relying on the leaves of the Tree of Dao, he could already reach the level of a Top Heavenly Immortal!

If the leaves of the Tree of Dao were to enhance him further, his combat power could likely reach the pinnacle of Top Heavenly Immortal!

In other words, at this moment, he was already one of the front runners in the Lingxu Realm, just below the Peerless Immortal Sword and the Ten Great Demon Gods!

Thinking of this, Qin Zheng clenched his fist slightly, feeling the surging power within his body, and a sense of solidity filled his heart.

The transformation of the Merit Scroll made his path to Taiyi exceedingly clear.

As long as he continued to slay demons, accumulate merit, exchange for Innate Merit, and enhance the Tree of Dao, he could elevate his Realm all the way to the Taiyi Realm!

The Demon race!

He needed to kill more and stronger demons!

Qin Zheng’s eyes sparkled with determination.

And just then, a spatial fluctuation from an extremely distant place suddenly caught his attention.

"This feeling is... demonic energy?"
