I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World

Chapter 398: Chapter 359: Demon Clan Peach Blossom Plain (Revised)

On the Illusionary Wave Sea, Jiang Yuebai’s sixty-four array signs descended all at once, instantly raising a Great Array that isolated heaven and earth.

Within the Wind, Cloud, Thunder, and Lightning Array, transformations occurred, and sea monsters were exterminated in an instant, their corpses floating across a hundred miles.

Jiang Yuebai returned loaded with spoils, and even after she and Xie Jingshan crossed the Illusionary Wave Sea and saw the Demon Clan’s territories, there still remained some of the demon cores and demon blood from the last hunt.

Jiang Yuebai calculated the days; they had been at sea for over forty days.

The Smoke and Mist Light Boat sailed out of the cloud and fog area and into the reefs, immediately surrounded by four fish demons with fish tails and ferocious faces, wielding harpoons and hissing at them like snakes.

”Demon Clan realm, idle people must not approach!”

Jiang Yuebai signaled Xie Jingshan with her eyes not to move, and tilted her head to indicate the palm-sized White Ganoderma sprouting wildly on her head.

”Hey... how do I address you, Fish Brothers? Look, I’m also a demon.”

”It’s an extraordinary person!”

The fish demon fiercely thrust the harpoon forward.

”Alright, alright, if you say it’s an extraordinary person, then it’s an extraordinary person.” Jiang Yuebai dodged back, ”I’m here by invitation, you can’t drive me away like this?”

The four fish demons looked at each other, the harpoons still thrusting forward.

”Who invited you here? State your name!”

Cautiously pushing away the harpoon about to strike her face, Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan maintained their Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivation.

”It might be your Divine Tree from Qingqiu, I don’t know how to call it exactly.”

”Impossible!” The fish demon retorted, ”How could the Divine Tree invite extraordinary people? Without the recommendation of a demon clan lord, extraordinary people cannot set foot in the demon clan.”

Xie Jingshan impatiently tugged his ear, ”Let me handle this.”

Jiang Yuebai was pushed aside as Xie Jingshan pulled out a handful of Top-Grade spiritual stones, ”Fish Brothers, can you grant us a favor?”

The fish demons froze in unison, then the harpoon directly thrust at Xie Jingshan’s face.

”Back off!”

Xie Jingshan was pushed back by the harpoon, as this was the demon clan’s territory, they couldn’t just storm in.

Unable to proceed, Jiang Yuebai steeled herself, recalling the feeling of entering the dream with the Divine Tree, and silently called out in her heart, ”If you don’t show up, I’m leaving!”

As soon as Jiang Yuebai called out, a strange ripple suddenly emanated from the very heart of the demon clan, startling flocks of birds into the sky and prompting young beasts in the forest to cry out.

Several green leaves appeared out of thin air, carrying an ancient aura, swirling around Jiang Yuebai.

The four fish demons recognized them as leaves from the Divine Tree, their attitude changed drastically, hastily retracting their harpoons, bowing, and stepping back to open a path.

”Please, come onto the island, my lord!”

Xie Jingshan turned in shock to Jiang Yuebai, curious about how she managed this.

Jiang Yuebai flicked her sleeve and pushed Xie Jingshan aside, ”Lead the way!”

”Yes!”

All four fish demons led the way in front, and Jiang Yuebai transmitted to Xie Jingshan, ”From now on, you are my attendant. If I don’t let you speak, act as if you’re mute, understand?”

Xie Jingshan didn’t respond, causing Jiang Yuebai to turn her head toward him with a threatening glint in her eyes.

”I’m mute, am I?!” Xie Jingshan grumbled angrily.

Jiang Yuebai smiled with narrowed eyes, ”Yes, be good~”

The four fish demons led Jiang Yuebai onto the island, stepping into the woods, Jiang Yuebai felt as if she had returned to the Tree Vine Maze of the Wind and Cloud Meeting.

Overhead was an endless canopy that reached the heavens, leveling with the ocean of clouds, nearly covering the entire demon clan realm.

Countless tree vines hung down from the clouds, rooted into the ground, transforming into a forest where trees and spirit plants intertwined, flowers blossomed, bees and butterflies danced around.

Jiang Yuebai saw palm-sized flower demons flapping dragonfly-like wings, flitting among the flowers, holding only cherry-sized jars to collect dewdrops from grass leaves.

There were also little squirrels sitting like people on tree forks, posing with five hearts facing the sky, eliciting laughter.

Gold-haired monkeys swung among the tree vines, curiously following beside them. A small deer dashed out from the woods, turning into a boy with deer horns on his head, who ran away in fright upon seeing Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan.

The tiny Little Ganoderma on her head lazily shook, sensing a comforting, delightful aura.

An odd and vibrant world unfolded before Jiang Yuebai, sparking her curiosity and desire to explore.

The four fish demons led Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan to a peach blossom forest, where various flower demons moved busily in and out.

”This is Peach Blossom Plain, the territory of the Peach Blossom Demon. Rest there temporarily, do not wander. If the Divine Tree wishes to see you, it will send an envoy to guide you.”

Upon the fish demon’s words, two palm-sized female flower demons with four peach blossom wings flew over, inviting Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan into Peach Blossom Plain.

As Jiang Yuebai stepped into Peach Blossom Plain, she felt she had entered some special place; sweeping her Divine Sense around, she found the exit behind was gone, and around her stretched only boundless peach blossom woods, no sign of a way out.

Behind her, Xie Jingshan, as if imitating a dog, sniffed the thick pollen, suddenly sneezing and scattering petals.

There were mountains in the distance, shrouded in clouds and mist, with a vast lake beneath.

The two little flower demons escorted them through the peach woods to the lake side, where several huts scattered along the distant hills, all styled like human clan dwellings.

The flower demons flew up to Jiang Yuebai and said, ”Choose any empty hut to reside in, wait patiently. If you need anything, call out loudly, and nearby flower demons will respond.”

Wishing to gather information, Jiang Yuebai watched the flower demons leave together; she could only look at Xie Jingshan and together they found a place to temporarily stay.

The lake-facing, mountain-backed house was nice, Jiang Yuebai walked straight toward it, when suddenly an imposing, iron tower-like late-Stage Foundation Establishment extraordinary person emerged, with features like a bear and white hair, obviously from Snow Bear Country.

Both Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan looked up at the Snow Bear extraordinary person, who stared back fiercely, growling, ”What are you looking at?”

After saying that, the Snow Bear extraordinary person thumped up the mountain, entering another hut.

”It seems extraordinary people from all four great countries have come to attend the Divine Sacrifice ceremony, and with Shen Huaxi added, it’ll be quite lively.”

Xie Jingshan remained silent, nodding vigorously beside her.

Jiang Yuebai and Xie Jingshan found an empty hut on the other side of the lake to reside temporarily, everything in the demon clan’s realm felt different to Jiang Yuebai.

When she first entered the peach woods, she sensed traces of demon art, surely some powerful Great Demon Technique.

And the lake in front of their huts, the waters in its central area had an unusual aura, likely belonging to either a Water Demon or some type of demon art.

These demon arts were wholly integrated with nature, able to persist long-term without leaving a trace, truly remarkable.

Xie Jingshan was equally curious about the surroundings, so Jiang Yuebai let him roam outside, gathering information from other extraordinary people about the details of the Divine Sacrifice ceremony.

Xie Jingshan, intrigued by the demon clan, happily wagged his tail as he left.

Originally, Jiang Yuebai expected the Divine Tree to see her shortly, but unexpectedly, another demon with past ties to her came first to visit.

”You have truly come to the demon clan. I am Tian Nanxing, do you recognize me?”

Jiang Yuebai looked in amazement at the person before her.

Tian Nanxing, the president of the Kongfang City Alchemy Master Guild, who gave her Spiritual Plant Grafting Technique, indeed turned out to be a demon hidden among humans, just as the Supreme Elder had said!
