Chapter 975: The Demonic Path’s Compromise and the Disturbance in the Immortal’s cave abode Abode
Editor: Henyee Translations

After several tests, the demonic cultivators fully understood the unyielding stance of the righteous path.

This demand was their bottom line, and they were not prepared to make any concessions. In such a situation, tensions inevitably escalated once again.

However, after a period of warfare, the demonic forces continued to suffer defeat after defeat, unable to break through.

Ultimately, they had to face reality and accept the demands of the righteous alliance.

After rough negotiations, the righteous alliance consistently achieved their desired outcomes. Numerous demonic forces were forced to abandon their strongholds or had their territories drastically reduced to remote borders, all under the strict supervision of the righteous alliance, with strict prohibitions against crossing the boundaries.

This was undoubtedly a massive blow to the demonic forces.

Those who had previously harbored thoughts of aiding the descent of demonic immortals now had to reconsider.

Exposure would mean certain death, and the areas in which they could operate were tightly restricted, making it challenging to meet the necessary conditions for their plans.

Attempting to aid the descent of demonic immortals not only had a low probability of success but was also sure to backfire.

The righteous side was naturally very satisfied with this outcome.

Jiang Chengxuan felt as if a great oppressive force had almost completely dissipated.

Perhaps, this suppression of the demonic path had truly averted the great calamity.

At the very least, it had been postponed for a considerable time, and either outcome was already a significant victory.

Some sects also had their own methods of sensing the heavenly secrets, and ultimately, the results were unanimous—the great calamity would no longer pose a threat to the Floodgate Realm in the short term.

This news undoubtedly delighted all the sects, and respect for the Haoran Sect grew subconsciously. After all, if not for Jiang Chengxuan’s proposal, this turn of events would have been unlikely.

Subsequently, the righteous sects focused their main efforts on monitoring the demonic forces, remaining vigilant without any relaxation. In such circumstances, time flew by in the blink of an eye, and a hundred years passed.

Over these hundred years, the so-called great calamity showed no signs of manifesting.

At the Haoran Sect’s Cloud Mist Peak, five people stood before Jiang Chengxuan’s cave abode, discussing something.

The most conspicuous among them was Mahayana Daolord Qin Shenwu, and the others were disciples of his faction.

Jiang Chengxuan, Xie Xiangyao, Zhao Tianfan, and Shen Ruyan were all present.

After hundreds of years, Qin Shenwu and Jiang Chengxuan had just received a message from Daolord Allheaven, informing them that the Immortal’s cave abode had begun to show signs of activity and was likely to open soon.

Upon receiving this message, they immediately called upon Xie Xiangyao and Zhao Tianfan, planning to take them along to the Immortal’s cave abode.

Both had long since achieved the Dao Fusion and possessed the capability to protect themselves.

The group of four was the maximum number of people Qin Shenwu could lead while ensuring their complete safety; any more, and there could be accidents due to lack of attention.

After all, the region outside their realm, coupled with the dangers of the Immortal’s cave abode, were not to be underestimated even by a Mahayana Daolord.

“Is everything prepared?” Qin Shenwu asked his disciples before departing.

“Yes, Shifu,” replied Xie Xiangyao and Zhao Tianfan, nodding.

“This trip involves dangers in the region outside our domain and in the Immortal’s cave abode. We must not take it lightly. If you have any doubts, it’s still not too late to back out,” Qin Shenwu said gravely.

He cared deeply for his disciples, the closest to him, and wished to avoid any accidents. As for Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, they were well aware of the risks and needed no further warnings.

“We understand and will be extremely cautious,” the disciples reassured their master, choosing not to forfeit this rare opportunity. After all, visiting the Immortal’s cave abode might be a once-in-a-lifetime chance.

“Very well, then let’s proceed,” Qin Shenwu said, seeing their determined looks, and led the group towards the Pantheon Sect.

After they left, Jiang Chengxuan had already arranged the affairs of the Haoran Sect.

As long as they kept an eye on the movements of the demonic sects, no unexpected events were likely to occur, as the organization responsible for surveillance had become quite adept over the centuries.

A moment later, Qin Shenwu led his group into the Pantheon Sect. With his status as a Mahayana Daolord, he did not need to announce his arrival and entered boldly.

They arrived at the grand hall of the Pantheon Sect, where the sect master soon came out to greet them warmly.

“Welcome, honored guests! We have been expecting you,” greeted the master of the Pantheon Sect, his welcome filled with warmth.

Behind him, Jiang Chengxuan noticed some familiar faces.

Among them was Gao Baiyue, who had once stood with Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan guarding against demonic threats in the New World.

It appeared that he was now a core disciple of the Pantheon Sect and was also selected to venture into the Immortal’s cave abode to seek fortunes.

His cultivation level was similar to that of Xie Xiangyao and Zhao Tianfan, all being in the Dao Integration Realm.

Jiang Chengxuan gave him a slight nod of recognition, which Gao Baiyue quickly returned with a respectful gesture, marking their brief exchange.

“Please, do not stand on ceremony, Daolord Allheaven,” Qin Shenwu spoke without any intention of engaging in small talk, quickly turning the conversation towards the matter at hand. “We’ve heard about the activity within the Immortal’s cave abode. What is the current situation?”

“Just recently, we’ve noticed that the disturbances inside the Immortal’s cave abode are becoming more frequent. It seems to be a sign that it’s about to open,” Daolord Allheaven replied without hesitation.

“The same opinion is held by other sects as well,” he added.

This statement raised an eyebrow for Qin Shenwu.

“Other sects?”

Logically, these sects would normally be in competition with each other; it was unusual for them to share such information.

“Yes. The area around the Immortal’s cave abode, located in the outer realms, has recently seen an increase in activity from extraterrestrial beasts, which has been quite troublesome,” explained Daolord Allheaven.

“Some of us have decided to set aside our differences for the time being and focus on entering the Immortal’s cave abode first.”

Daolord Allheaven swiftly cleared up Qin Shenwu’s doubts. Under the drive of mutual interests, enemies could temporarily become allies. Previously, Daolord Allheaven had viewed other sects as rivals, but with the prospect of cooperation yielding benefits, hostilities could be momentarily suspended.

Qin Shenwu nodded slightly in understanding. The logic was clear to him.

Moreover, it was likely that each sect was being led by a Mahayana Daolord accompanied by their respective younger generations; no one wanted to risk any mishaps.

Naturally, he had no intention of complicating matters further.
