Chapter 969 Complete the mission
Chapter 969: Several demon lords who secretly entered the Immortal Realm after completing their mission suffered the same fate as Rogge; they were all chased and struck by lightning.
In this way, the demons' hope of settling down in this realm was completely dashed.
All the demon lords gathered together to discuss the matter.
In the end, they realized that it seemed their only option was to return to the original interface.
After all, the female cultivator who collected the Black Tower also said that she was willing to return the power of origin to them.
Realizing they no longer even had the right to threaten the other side into war, the Demon Clan's chief immediately instructed everyone not to spread the word that they had secretly infiltrated the area and been struck by lightning.
Otherwise, if that female cultivator hides in the Immortal Realm and doesn't return the power of origin to them, they will really have gained nothing.
After discussing the matter, they inquired with the Demon Lord who was acting as a scout and learned that the Immortal Venerables and the female cultivator from the Nine Heavens Mystic Immortal Realm were still in the same old place.
The Demon Lord, accompanied by several Demon Lords, returned to the place where the Black Tower had previously appeared.
Upon seeing the several demon lords flying towards them, Xiao Han knew that the Black Tower's spirit must have planned everything.
She stood there calmly, not in a hurry at all.
The Demon Clan's Great Leader flew over, ignoring the other Immortal Venerables, and stared directly at Xiao Han, saying, "We've discussed it and decided that it's better to return to our own realm to survive. You will take the Black Tower with you and come with us. We must witness firsthand how the Origin Power is completely returned."
Immortal Venerable Lingyun immediately said, "Xiao Han, we will escort you there."
Only when all these demon armies leave can the crisis in the Immortal Realm be truly resolved.
But if Xiao Han, a Nine Heavens Mystic Immortal cultivator, were to stay with these demons, would he still have a chance of survival?
Xiao Han originally wanted to refuse, after all, the Black Tower spirit had said it would protect her safety.
Xiao Han still believed in the power of a treasure that even ancient cultivators couldn't control.
However, wouldn't it be safer to have a celestial being willing to protect her?
Xiao Han then stopped refusing.
Soon, the escort team, consisting of five Immortal Venerables, was ready to set off.
Also preparing to return were the two Immortal Venerables from Immortal Realm No. 58. Both of them felt extremely defeated at that moment.
It feels like they've wasted their time; everything is back to normal.
The largest group in the demon army consisted of demon cultivators at the Nine Heavens Mystic Immortal Realm. Their travel speed was naturally not comparable to that of the Demon Lord.
With the Celestial Venerable accompanying him, Xiao Han was unwilling to travel slowly.
So the demons sent five demon lords and Xiao Han's group to fly ahead first, while the demon army followed at a normal pace.
With the Demon Lord of the Demon Clan and the old Immortal Lord of Interface 58 leading the way, Xiao Han and his group simply followed along.
Xiao Han couldn't understand how these powerful cultivators could remember routes in the unmarked void beyond the realm.
Then, she said to the Immortal Venerable Xuan Su who was leading her on the journey, "In this outer void, there's nowhere to make a mark. How do you all remember your routes?"
A smile appeared on the beautiful face of the Immortal Venerable Xuan Su. As if treating a junior, she stroked her hair and said, "This cannot be explained in words. You will understand when you cultivate to the Immortal Venerable realm."
Well, Xiao Han could only sigh.
She doesn't know when she'll be able to cultivate to the level of an Immortal Venerable.
No, didn't the Black Tower spirit say that if he did this well, he would have the chance to become an Immortal Venerable?
Xiao Han immediately perked up and began to communicate with the spirit of the Black Tower using her mind.
"You said before that if I followed your instructions and persuaded the demons to return to their realm, you would make me a Celestial Venerable. Do you keep your word? Also, aren't you just a source of disaster? How can you make me a Celestial Venerable?"
She deliberately played a trick, directly saying she wanted to become an Immortal Venerable, and even used reverse psychology.
The spirit of the Black Tower snorted, "Becoming an Immortal Venerable is such a simple matter."
It would like to add, "As long as you don't regret it."
But after thinking about it, I decided against it and decided to let her be happy for now.
After flying for an unknown amount of time, they finally arrived at the boundary barrier of the Fifty-Eighth Immortal Realm.
With so many immortals and demons around, breaking open a small hole is still easy.
Once inside the interface, Xiao Han immediately sensed that the spiritual energy within it was extremely thin.
At this moment, everyone's eyes fell on Xiao Han again.
Xiao Han did not hesitate, took out the black tower, and began to communicate with the spirit of the artifact.
Then, everyone saw the black tower grow larger again, suck Xiao Han into the tower, and then fall to the ground below.
The closer it gets to the ground, the smaller the black tower becomes.
When it landed on the ground, the black tower became just a small black dot, and then disappeared underground.
The immortals and demons watching were also puzzled as to how this primordial power should be released.
Then everyone's attention fell on the old immortal of this realm who had once controlled the Black Tower and absorbed the power of origin.
Without anyone even having to ask, the old immortal knew what they wanted to ask.
He said somewhat awkwardly, "When I first discovered that it could absorb a lot of spiritual energy, I just thought it needed to devour spiritual energy, so I let it absorb whatever it wanted. Who knew that it would burrow deep underground and absorb the source power of the entire realm."
After saying that, he emphasized, "I wasn't taken into the tower by it and followed it underground."
Since that's the case, everyone can only wait here until the Black Tower releases its primordial power.
Lingyun Immortal and his group would wait for Xiao Han to come out before taking her back.
As for Xiao Han, after being trapped inside the black tower, she was still confused and asked, "Why did you want me to come in? You could have just spat out your source power."
The spirit snorted, "Don't you want the opportunity to become an Immortal Venerable?"
Xiao Han immediately beamed and said, "Yes, of course I want it! Your esteemed divine being, please grant me this opportunity."
Although her tone seemed to carry a hint of teasing, the spirit was still quite pleased with Xiao Han's flattery.
It moved Xiao Han to the bottom of the tower and instructed him, "The primordial power of this realm will flow out from here in a short time. You should meditate on the Dao here."
In a place like this, even a cockroach would become an immortal, let alone a human.
Therefore, the spirit of the Black Tower said it was the opportunity to become an immortal.
Xiao Han suppressed her inner joy, adjusted her mood, and slowly entered a state of enlightenment.
There was no movement deep underground. The immortals and demons who were guarding above stood obediently in the void, waiting.
However, the returning demon army encountered a spatial storm in the outer void.
Looking at the demon cultivators who had been reduced to only a small fraction of their original number, the demon chieftain felt that this migration had been a complete disaster.
All of this was caused by that old man from the human race.
The demon race has now fallen to the same miserable state as the human and demon races.
The demon chieftain gritted his teeth in anger, wondering whether he should send people to surround and intercept that old man and teach him a lesson when he got back.
