Stepping Cloud Peak, within the Great Hall.

The purple-robed Martial Saint Yan Fu placed a Jade Token on the Bronze Gate.

Upon his return, he immediately reported the destruction of Lion Camel Demon City.

Ever since Elder Yuan and Uncle Chen fell, the Dao Sect had not sent any new Martial Saints.

It’s not that they didn’t want to, but rather they were simply unable to spare anyone.

To hold back the Demon Race, the Dao Sect had paid a tremendous price.

A long time passed, and suddenly the Bronze Gate began to tremble, accompanied by a bright light. The long sealed gate slowly opened.

The purple-robed Martial Saint Yan Fu was stunned. Did the Dao Sect send someone over?

Before long, a figure clad in blue stepped out.

"Wang... Senior Brother Wang Xi?"

Purple-robed Martial Saint Yan Fu was surprised to see this person.

This person was Daoist Wang Xi, from the lineage of Yao Mountain.

He only became a Martial Saint over thirty years ago and is now an Intermediate Martial Saint.

Their status and positions within the Dao Sect were worlds apart.

After all, Wang Xi was a Daoist. As long as he didn’t fall, there was no issue with his prospects of becoming a Great Saint, and there was even a faint hope for reaching the level of a Supreme Saint.

"Junior Brother Yan, take me to see Lion Camel Demon City."

Wang Xi said with a smile.

"Of course, Senior Brother Wang."

Yan Fu nodded in response.

Thus, the two left Stepping Cloud Peak and headed towards Lion Camel Demon City.

Upon arriving, Wang Xi carefully examined all the demon corpses and also inspected the corpse of the Demon Saint Huang Lang.

"As I suspected."

After his inspection, Wang Xi revealed an intrigued expression, then said,

"Senior Brother Wang, did you find something?"

Yan Fu asked curiously.

"It must’ve been that past Human World Martial Saint who wiped out Lion Camel Demon City, no doubt."

Wang Xi said with a smile.

"What?"

Yan Fu was shocked: "Senior Brother Wang, are you joking? That Human World Martial Saint only achieved Martial Saint status fifty years ago, right? Even with extraordinary talent, reaching Intermediate or even Advanced Martial Saint level would be his limit."

"Though hard to believe, this Human World Martial Saint was always a legend. Even when the Human World’s barrier was still intact, he managed to break through into Heavenly Phenomenon Level Celestial, eventually reaching the Martial Saint Realm. Moreover, according to the intelligence our Dao Sect obtained, it’s very likely that he cultivated the Qi Blood Holy Realm."

Wang Xi said solemnly.

"What? The Qi Blood Holy Realm?"

Yan Fu’s face was filled with shock.

Because he knew what the Qi Blood Holy Realm was... it was a special realm that even a Supreme Saint could not cultivate.

It required first developing a special constitution before entering the Perfect Innate realm, then absorbing the power of a Demon Core, and finally cultivating a special Saint Body to give rise to the Qi Blood Holy Realm.

It was extremely difficult.

Particularly, absorbing the power of a Demon Core involved immense pain, required a lot of time, and also affected normal cultivation.

Although various schools within the Martial Alliance repeatedly tried to train such special talents...very few ultimately succeeded.

Even if someone did cultivate the Qi Blood Holy Realm, it would still affect their cultivation level, hindering them from unleashing the full potential of the Qi Blood Holy Realm.

"Based on the condition of these demon corpses, we can draw this conclusion now, especially this Demon Saint Huang Lang; his physical body is completely undamaged. It could only be suppressed by the Qi Blood Holy Realm, causing the demon body to disintegrate, leaving only the option of Primordial Spirit Emergence. In the end, the Human World Great Saint easily obliterated his primordial spirit."

Wang Xi stroked his chin and said, "Tsk tsk, the Qi Blood Holy Realm, combined with Great Saint cultivation... Even a Demon Clan Great Saint’s Devil God Battle Body would likely be suppressed... unless a Demon Race Supreme Saint intervenes, I fear no one from the Demon Race can cope with this Human World Great Saint."

"Senior Brother Wang, does that mean... this Human World Great Saint can only be threatened by a Demon Race Supreme Saint?"

Yan Fu widened his eyes, disbelieving.

"More or less, even our Human Clan’s Great Saints would be suppressed as well, though not as severely as the Demon Race."

Wang Xi remarked, feeling wistful. "It’s been several hundred years since our Human Clan last produced a Great Saint who cultivated the Qi Blood Holy Realm. The last one passed away over a hundred years ago."

Yan Fu knew the individual Senior Brother Wang was referring to, a true slayer of demons.

The Demon Race deeply hated and also greatly feared this individual.

He was even pursued by a Supreme Saint of the Demon Race yet managed to escape ascension by leveraging the terrifying Qi Blood Holy Realm.

Until his demise, he was only an Intermediate Great Saint, but because of the Qi Blood Holy Realm and his immense contributions, his status in the Martial Alliance was akin to that of a Supreme Saint.

Currently, there are a few Martial Saints in the Martial Alliance who possess the Qi Blood Holy Realm, but they can only handle ordinary Demon Saints... they cannot suppress a Demon Clan Great Saint’s Devil God Battle Body.

"Senior Brother Wang, did you come personally... to find that Human World Great Saint?"

Yan Fu asked hastily.

"Yes, if we can persuade this Human World Great Saint to join our Dao Sect, we can definitely suppress the Demon Race and change the current situation."

Wang Xi nodded and said.

Unfortunately, that Human Saint had never refined the Elder Jade Scroll, so the Dao Sect could never ascertain his whereabouts or life and death.

Until a few years ago, when a top-level half-demon insider infiltrated the Demon Race for the Dao Sect, they obtained highly classified information that a Human Martial Saint had cultivated the Qi Blood Holy Realm.

As soon as the Dao Sect received the information from Yan Fu, they immediately thought of that Human Martial Saint and sent Wang Xi, who had had previous interactions with him.

"But this Human Saint is so low-profile and elusive, it’s going to be difficult to find him..."

Yan Fu said.

"Yeah..."

Wang Xi sighed.

That Human Saint really kept a low profile.

Ever since the calamity, he had disappeared without a trace. If it weren’t for the resurgence of Lion Camel Demon City, who knows when he would have surfaced.

"Junior Brother Yan, I will be staying in Chang Country to search for that Human Saint, I hope for your assistance."

Wang Xi suddenly said.

"Senior Brother Wang, rest assured, I will cooperate fully."

Yan Fu was delighted to hear this; having Wang Xi around would significantly reduce his stress.

After all, as a junior Martial Saint managing such a massive territory like Chang Country, the pressure was indeed great.

....

Chen Bell Platform.

Li Qian had just completed a session of cultivating the Qi Blood Holy Realm.

Even a top-level Demon Saint like Huang Lang was easily annihilated by him; he recognized the formidable power of his Qi Blood Holy Realm, truly a nemesis to the Demon Race.

Thus, he was even more motivated to cultivate.

After all, in the coming time, his biggest threat would be the Great Saints and even the Supreme Saints of the Demon Race.

Suddenly, he took out a Jade Scroll from the gray-white ring on his finger.

It was obtained from the storage device of Huang Lang.

He easily broke the seal on the Jade Scroll and read its contents.

"Is this... a diary?"

Li Qian was extremely surprised after reading.

The owner of the diary was the same Huang Lang he had killed.

"Serious demons writing diaries, how bizarre."

Li Qian marveled.

Huang Lang was quite the gossip, recording various affairs of the Demon Race, including some private events of the Demon Saints and Great Saints.

"Imperial Chaos Year 35891 August, a trace of the Myriad Phenomena Demon Thought descended to the Human World and was scattered by a Human Martial Saint, who possessed the Qi Blood Holy Realm. I had hopes of becoming a Great Saint, but now... hopes are completely dashed. This Human Martial Saint must die, I will drain his blood, devour his flesh..."

"Imperial Chaos Year 35891 August, I reported to the Saint Master that a Human Martial Saint in the Human World cultivated the Qi Blood Holy Realm, but the Saint Master did not take it seriously, considering him just an ordinary Martial Saint with the Qi Blood Holy Realm and not a significant threat. It’s normal for the Saint Master to not care much; ever since the Martial Saint, known as our nemesis, passed away, the Martial Saints who cultivated the Qi Blood Holy Realm have been unable to break through to Great Saint and suppress our Demon Clan’s Devil God Battle Body... It’s not easy for this Human Martial Saint to advance to Great Saint... but I still think he poses a threat and must be eliminated. Once the barrier of the Human World closes, I’ll definitely find this Human Martial Saint and drain his blood, devour his flesh..."

"Imperial Chaos Year 35937 May, our Demon Race finally breached the Dao Sect’s Lao Mountain Defense Line. The Saint Master assigned me a task to rebuild Lion Camel Demon City in Chang Country of the Human World and collect human vitality... I finally have the opportunity to return to the place that brought me shame, hahaha... I will definitely find that Human Martial Saint and drain his blood, devour his flesh..."

"Imperial Chaos Year 35938 October, that top-level human Martial Saint is a madman; not even a Great Saint, yet he dared to use a Forbidden Technique, forcibly manifesting his Primordial Spirit Dharma Form. Doesn’t he know that doing so will definitely kill him? Indeed, he died at last, but I too was injured by his last strike, damaging my Demon Core, which is infuriating... It’s a pity that the Human Martial Saint never appeared; has he already fallen? If so, he’s really lucky; otherwise, if he dares show up, I’ll definitely drain his blood, devour his flesh..."

...

Such deep resentment.

Li Qian felt a chill as he read these diary entries.

The information recorded in the Jade Scroll even contained the emotions of the recorder.

"Looks like the Demon Race didn’t take much notice of my cultivation of the Qi Blood Holy Realm."

Li Qian stroked his chin, quietly relieved.

From Huang Lang’s diary, it seemed like after reaching Great Saint Cultivation, the effects of the Qi Blood Holy Realm could be completely different.

And he had indeed noticed.

After his breakthrough to Great Saint, although his progress in the Qi Blood Holy Realm hadn’t increased, its intensity seemed to have risen a notch.

"Devil God Battle Body?"

He touched his chin, wondering if it was a technique only achievable by the Demon Clan Great Saint.

He then took out several more Jade Scrolls and Demon Language Books to examine.

After a long while, he finally found a description of the Devil God Battle Body in a Demon Language Book, a second Demonization achievable only by a Demon Clan Great Saint.

Equivalent to the Primordial Spirit Dharma Form of Human Saints.

However, while Primordial Spirit Dharma Form is more energy-based,

The Demon Clan’s Devil God Battle Body is more material-based.

Overall, the Devil God Battle Body has certain advantages over the Primordial Spirit Dharma Form.

In battles of the same rank, the Demon Clan often has the upper hand.

Thus, the Human Clan ancestors, through prolonged research, specifically devised a method to counter the demon body, which is cultivating a special Martial Arts Saint Body, eventually giving rise to the Qi Blood Holy Realm.
