Chapter 267: Chapter 161: Breakthrough Again! Major Increase in Strength!_2
After his cultivation breakthrough, he was by no means inferior to the Purple Mansion Cultivators of the eight major sects in the outer seas.
At the moment of Lu Li’s breakthrough.
Within a stronghold of the Heavenly Demon Sect.
“After the Beast Tide, are you certain you want to provoke a great war between the righteous and the Demon Path?”
“Indeed, the Beast Tide won’t last much longer. Don’t you wish to break through to the Nascent Soul stage?”
“Heh heh… Perhaps it is because you sense your own imminent demise and can’t wait any longer…”
“Hmph… The outer seas are barren, and without high-level Spirit Veins, breakthroughs are tough to achieve; that’s also a fact. Moreover, that high-level Cultivation Technique is indeed real.”
“Can that group of madmen be trusted?”
“Heh heh… After exterminating the four great sects of the righteous path, we’ll join forces to storm the lair of Zoroastrianism and catch them all in one fell swoop. They want to use me as their pawn? They’d better have the strength to back it up.”
“The righteous path is not weak, having been established in the outer seas for thousands of years. Even if we could win, you and I might not survive.”
Hun Shang’s gaze flickered uncertainly.
A thousand years ago, during the great war between the righteous and demon paths, he was merely a Purple Mansion Cultivator. The mere thought of that scene still sent shivers down his spine.
“Heh heh… Rest assured, I have been preparing for this for hundreds of years; it will definitely catch everyone by surprise.”
The Venerable Xiao Yong from the Blood Demon Sect revealed a face shrouded in mystery.
Just then, Hun Shang sensed a slight movement from his Storage Bag.
He swept it with his Divine Sense.
He spoke faintly, “The Demon Golden Core Venerables have invited us to discuss the matter of the Beast Tide. Let’s talk about this matter later…”
Xiao Yong nodded, and the two walked out toward the great hall together.
Before long, a group of Golden Core Venerables had gathered in a large hall, seated in two rows.
Liu Luoxin was conspicuously among them.
She sat quietly on a Jade Chair to the right front, dressed in a white gown, with an enchanting face and an extraordinarily distinguished aura.
Causing the Golden Core Venerables around her to glance at her repeatedly.
In the entire scene, there were only three female Venerables, and Liu Luoxin from the Flowers Sect held the highest position and strongest power.
Once everyone had arrived.
Xue Jingshi from the Qingxu Sect spoke with a smile, “We’ve gathered everyone here today primarily to discuss the matter of the Beast Tide.”
“Should we continue to hold this island, or think of another plan?”
“I think that as long as we hold on using the Arrays, the other side won’t be able to gain an advantage, and they’ll naturally leave.”
Hun Shang exuded a rising aura of murder, his expression icy.
“With more than twenty Golden Core Venerables, we should have no problem defending this island.”
A group of Demon Path Venerables also nodded faintly in agreement.
The previous Beast Tides had also retreated in the same manner, with nothing amiss.
As for the few Demon Beasts that managed to breach this war bastion and invade the Human Clan’s seas, it was of little consequence.
The whole outer sea had more than just these Golden Core Cultivators; there were others guarding their respective sects and islands, utterly unbothered by the Beast Tide.
Of course, the group of Demon Beasts wouldn’t be foolish enough to completely bypass this fortress. If they were surrounded by Human Clan powerhouses, they would likely have difficulty returning to the Demonic Sea of Ten Thousand Demons.
Thus, the two clans reached a stalemate.
It was then that a cold voice rang out, filling the entire hall.
“I don’t think it’s a good idea.”
Liu Luoxin snorted lightly, her face full of disdain.
“If those Great Demons want a fight, then we’ll hit them where it hurts.”
“Oh? Venerable Liu, what insightful opinion do you have?”
Xue Jingshi’s face showed suspicion.
The other Venerables also looked puzzled, turning their heads towards Liu Luoxin.
Liu Luoxin raised her eyebrows, her lovely face revealing a touch of fierceness: “If we keep holding out like this, we can’t be sure for decades. While we’re holding back those Golden Core Demons, we should dispatch a large number of Purple Mansion Cultivators to directly invade the Demonic Sea of Ten Thousand Demons…”
“Kill all the high-potential descendants of the nearby Demon Clan islands, then withdraw. They have no Arrays to protect them, and they won’t be able to hold us back…”
“Moreover, the nearby Golden Core Demons have come here to attack the Island of Tranquil Jade, so the strong ones inside must have significantly dwindled.”
The Venerables brightened at these words.
“Venerable Liu’s plan is brilliant; it has certainly opened our eyes.”

They instantly grasped the feasibility of the plan.
Killing a group of high-potential Demon Clan offspring would not only weaken the opponent but also significantly delay the next wave of the Beast Tide.
“I agree with this, and my sect disciple Du Fan will also join the battle.”
“I agree as well…”
The Venerables nodded one after another.
“Let’s start preparing for this, then. Notify your Purple Mansion Cultivators first; we’ll depart in a year.”
Liu Luoxin spoke gently, her voice clear and pleasant.
“Then it’s decided.”
Hun Shang nodded faintly, then stood up and walked toward the exit of the great hall.
A group of Demon Golden Core Venerables followed him closely, and soon, only the Golden Core Venerables from the Four Great Sects remained in the great hall.
“Xue Daoist friend, these Demon Cultivators must also be guarded against. If not for the Beast Tide, I fear the great battle between the righteous and demon paths would have erupted long ago.”
After everyone had left, Liu Luoxin spoke softly, her face stern.
“Hmph… We all understand what those Demon bastards are up to.”
Huang Mingyi’s face was filled with murderous intent, and a deadly aura enveloped him.
“Do they really think they can get the better of us? To extract all the righteous Spirit Veins and cultivate a fifth-rank Spirit Vein for their own breakthrough to Nascent Soul?”
Xue Jingshi sighed lightly, “This matter is not a secret, the last time there was a great war between righteousness and the Demon Path, some Demon Practitioners had already considered it.”
“But once the war begins, who knows how many fellow cultivators will fall.”
A glint of cold light flashed in Liu Luoxin’s eyes, “All we need is to be prepared; if they want to fight, my Flowers Sect will accompany them to the end.”
Huang Mingyi also expressed his agreement, “That’s right, after this Beast Tide passes, we’ll immediately go to war, and first cut down those Demon Practitioner Venerables.”
As the most pure Sword Cultivator, he was also extremely belligerent.
Years ago, those Demon Practitioners were already making their moves, which had long stirred a killing intent within him.
“If war is inevitable, then let us be the ones to detonate it.”
After pondering for a moment, Xue Jingshi’s face turned grim.
After exchanging a few more words, they each went their separate ways.
…
At night, under a sky sparsely dotted with moon and stars.
Within the central courtyard of the Flowers Sect’s residence,
Liu Luoxin and Lu Li were sitting opposite each other, sipping on Spiritual Tea.
Upon hearing that Purple Mansion Cultivators would be sent to penetrate the Demonic Sea of Ten Thousand Demons a year later, his expression too faltered momentarily.
This plan was quite unexpected.
To fiercely attack in waves and escape back to the Human Clan’s waters before the opponent could react,
Would presumably make the Golden Core Demons rage furiously.
At that moment, a thought struck him, bringing to mind the partial map in his possession.
Decades ago, the Merfolk obtained it after a treasure looting, which supposedly contained information about Dragon Transformation Grass.
After many years of exploration, he suspected that this item might be within the Demon Clan’s waters.
After all, as a top-tier fourth-rank Spirit Grass, the Dragon Transformation Grass required immersion in the aura of high-level Dragon Seeds to grow.
Only the Demonic Sea of Ten Thousand Demons, which harbored many Dragon Seeds, including several within this Beast Tide, was a likely habitat.
It seemed he needed to pay attention to the information on this map before heading into the Demonic Sea of Ten Thousand Demons.
He mused quietly to himself.
…
The next day, at dawn,
Lu Li left the pavilion early and headed towards the central square of the island.
As he made his way through the crowd,
Cultivators at Foundation Establishment level on both sides respectfully made way for him.
The annual Beast Tide had greatly increased Lu Li’s prestige, ranking him second only to those top Purple Mansion Real Ones in the eyes of many cultivators.
Soon, Lu Li reached a crossroads in front of the square.
At that moment, he sensed a gaze upon him that made him tense.
“Golden Core Venerable!”
Lu Li turned to look.
He saw Sage Qing Song approaching with a smile, looking amiable.
“Have we met before, young friend Lu?”
Lu Li returned the smile mildly, “Sage Qing Song jests, this is only the second time I’ve had the fortune to meet the Venerable.”
His expression remained unchanged, but his heart was pounding.
Now he was certain, this Sage Qing Song definitely had a problem!
Perhaps some shocking secret was hidden within.
With that thought, a chill ran through him.
“Is that so? Perhaps I am mistaken,” Sage Qing Song said with a faint smile, hands clasped behind his back as he walked away, soon disappearing from Lu Li’s view.
As he walked away, a playful expression appeared on Sage Qing Song’s face.
“Interesting, I can sense a trace of my own soul aura on this person.”
Lu Li took a deep breath where he stood and then quickly continued towards the square ahead.
At that moment, a sense of urgency surged in his heart.
The situation in the outer seas was becoming increasingly mysterious.
The war between righteousness and the Demon Path could break out at any time, and there was Sage Qing Song, that crafty old man, watching from the shadows, not to mention the mad followers of Zoroastrianism whose progress remained unknown.
All of this weighed heavily on him.
Although his strength was not bad now, it was merely enough for self-protection.
To truly suppress everything, he was still far from sufficient.
