I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World

Chapter 857: Chapter 799: Fall (Vote for Yue)

Spiritual Platform Realm, Human Clan Camp.

Shen Huaxi repeatedly examined, confirming that Bai Jiuyou’s divine soul power had ceased dissipating, finally breathed a sigh of relief, slumping at Bai Jiuyou’s bedside.

At this moment, Xie Jingshan was still waiting outside; he already knew that the person Bai Jiuyou mentioned last was Jiang Yuebai.

Shen Huaxi still did not know how to explain to Xie Jingshan, as the event had occurred suddenly, leaving him no time to think.

In their original plan, with Jiang Yuebai’s personality, if the Human Clan did not accept her, she would definitely infiltrate the Demon Clan, and she was never a peaceful person, leading to unrest within the Demon Clan.

Jiang Yuebai, with a casual act of chaos, like Divinity Transformation, would be enough to cause internal turmoil within the Demon Clan.

As for Lu Nanzhi, her path was open, and the Ice Demon Legacy she carried was extremely important to the Demon Clan.

The records in the Observatory show that during the Heavenly Calamity, the Human Clan was defeated by the Demon Clan and Heavenly Witch Clan, almost facing extinction if not for the internal rebellion within the Heavenly Witch Clan.

At that time, the Demon Clan’s leader was the unparalleled Ice Demon Ancestor, unsurpassed by any demon, always appearing in female form.

Only she within the Demon Clan could be called Ancestor, while other Demon Clan leaders could only be referred to as Demon Lord.

Therefore, Shen Huaxi was certain that the Demon Clan’s Shen Mingjing would surely find a way to bring Lu Nanzhi to the Demon Realm; the more Lu Nanzhi resisted, the less Shen Mingjing would doubt this plan.

Of course, Shen Mingjing might suspect Lu Nanzhi of a feigned retreat or attempt to probe her memories, yet as long as Lu Nanzhi persisted and endured Shen Mingjing’s test period, the plan was bound to succeed.

All worries were outweighed by the importance of the Ice Demon Legacy to the Demon Clan.

Once Lu Nanzhi and Shen Mingjing were on the same side, and Lu Nanzhi was restored her memory, it would deal a crippling blow to the Demon Clan!

Furthermore, the Demon Clan was already infiltrated by brave Human Clan warriors willing to sacrifice their future, continually acting undercover, ready to cooperate and support Lu Nanzhi.

Sometimes Shen Huaxi couldn’t help but think that everything seemed like a predetermined plan by Heavenly Dao, making him the Fufeng Mountain Master of Extraordinary People Country, bearing the destiny of the Heavenly Witch Clan.

Due to the calamity caused by the Fang Family, Lu Nanzhi abandoned her path, turned into a demon, and was gradually pushed by fate towards the Demon Realm.

Then there was Xie Jingshan, who found his mission on the human battlefield in the Green Dragon Realm, cementing his determination to unite the world with his sword.

Heavenly Witch, Demon Clan, Human Clan, and Demon Clan, fate appeared like a great hand controlling them all.

Only Jiang Yuebai escaped from Demon Fate, making her path unknown, becoming the variable in this game of destiny.

Just like now, Shen Huaxi was unable to deduce what Jiang Yuebai encountered that almost cost her life.

The greatest possibility was that Jiang Yuebai had met Shen Mingjing.

Luckily, at the time, fearing insecurity, Jiang Yuebai asked Immortal Monarch Fatian for a Great Dao Seal that could feedback from Bai Jiuyou to her true self, allowing her to counter kill if anyone tried to take her life.

Shen Huaxi glanced at Bai Jiuyou, unsure when she would wake up, thinking that this counter kill must be an ordeal of nine deaths and one survival.

Currently, he had no idea how to replenish the lost divine soul power of Bai Jiuyou to awaken her.

Jiang Yuebai had mentioned that if such a situation occurred, Shen Huaxi must take good care of Bai Jiuyou, leaving the rest to her.

Jiang Yuebai hadn’t told Shen Huaxi that she and Bai Jiuyou practiced the Chaos Nirvana Skill, which allowed rebirth from near-death, as long as enough energy was absorbed.

Just like when she transformed into a demon in the Green Dragon Realm, she was struck dead by Purple Sky Divine Thunder, sleeping for twelve years, nearly consuming everything within the lotus platform to be reborn.

However, near-death wasn’t true death; Jiang Yuebai this time nearly capsized, unexpected that the Late-Stage Void Refining Fang Zhiyin would kill her, a Late-Stage Nascent Soul, with full force!

Perhaps Heavenly Dao was impeccable, providing her additional insurance upon leaving the Observatory in a state of amnesia.

Lin Jingyue left a divine talisman on the lotus platform!

That divine talisman could preserve her soul and Nascent Soul, sealing it within the lotus platform.

Without the strength of the Peak of Integration, there was no breaking the lotus platform.

This granted her the chance for rebirth through the Chaos Nirvana Skill rather than being utterly destroyed without a chance of recovery.

Inside the camp, Shen Huaxi gathered his thoughts, stood up, straightened his clothes, and took a deep breath.

Outside, Xie Jingshan still required his reassurance, which was the purpose of his arrival here.

If things unfolded as expected, news of Jiang Yuebai’s death would soon spread; then he must ensure Xie Jingshan and the Heavenly Interence Sect’s reaction was genuine enough, while suppressing any rash actions.

Let this thunderous anger fall upon the Fang Family!

Make sure the Star Alliance compensates the Heavenly Interence Sect properly!

Taiwei Star Alliance, Shaowei Realm.

The Spiritual Platform, Shaowei, Changyuan, and the Three Platforms and Four Realms were adjacent, aligned in a line, with Shen Huaxi and Xie Jingshan resisting the Demon Clan in the Spiritual Platform Realm, while Jiang Yuebai encountered the Fang Family Ancestor in the Three Platforms Realm.

Meanwhile, Lu Nanzhi was relentlessly pursued by the Star Alliance, Fang Family, Xiong Family, and Heavenly Star Sect agents, surviving narrowly and escaping to Shaowei Realm.

Shaowei and Changyuan were entirely occupied by the Demon Clan; if the Spiritual Platform and Three Platforms Realm were recaptured, the Human Clan coalition could strategically advance towards Shaowei and Changyuan.

North of Shaowei Realm, within Zishan Forest.

Lu Nanzhi was covered in blood and dirt, unable to tend to the wounds all over her body as she controlled her sword to swiftly seek a hidden and safe place.

She had just fought a bloody battle, forcing her way out of the encirclement set by the Divinity Transformation True Demon.

The territory of the Human Clan no longer offered her a safe haven. No matter how she disguised herself, the people from the Star Alliance would inevitably find her, followed by the Fang Family’s pursuit and obstruction.

Even Shen Mingjing’s people, whom she had killed more than ten times, continued to send emissaries to persuade her.

She had told Little Bai that she would never step into the Demon Realm and she wouldn’t break her word.

Chirp chirp!

On Lu Nanzhi’s shoulder, a white-fur spiritual rat that looked like Jixiang squeaked twice in a certain direction, and Lu Nanzhi hurriedly fled in the direction the rat indicated.

This spiritual rat was also given to her by Jiang Yuebai, Jixiang’s offspring.

After speeding for a while, Lu Nanzhi saw a natural misty area belonging to the Zishan Forest. Delighted, she was about to rush in to hide when she glimpsed a blue figure from the corner of her eye.

Clang!

Without a second thought, Lu Nanzhi drew her sword to slash. Sword Qi turned into countless cloud larks, rushing like the wind, but just as it was about to crush the blue figure, it exploded into countless ice crystals, leaving that person unharmed.

It was because he held up a crystal lotus platform that Lu Nanzhi was very familiar with.

Lu Nanzhi abruptly stopped her attack, suffered backlash, and vomited a mouthful of blood, stumbling backward. Supporting herself with the sword in the ground, she lifted her head, her gaze as sharp as a knife, brimming with an overwhelming killing intent.

”Why is her Lifebound Magic Treasure in your hands?!”

Lu Nanzhi could not mistake Jiang Yuebai’s lotus platform!

Shen Mingjing flipped his hand to put away the lotus platform, a smile on his lips as he surveyed Lu Nanzhi, seeing her covered in blood and dirt, with unhealed scars still on her face, looking miserable yet remaining sharp and cold.

”Tsk~ You’ve been through a lot recently. But you’re lucky to still keep your life, unlike Jiang Yuebai who wasn’t as fortunate, running into the Fang Family Ancestor and being suppressed with a single palm. Luckily, I encountered her and saved her Lifebound Magic Treasure; otherwise... it would have been beyond help!”

Lu Nanzhi instantly grasped the situation, catching the key points in Shen Mingjing’s words.

Little Bai still had a slim chance of survival; otherwise, he wouldn’t have said ’beyond help’!

”I’ll go back to the Demon Realm with you. Hand her over to me!” Lu Nanzhi said without any hesitation.

A trace of surprise flitted through Shen Mingjing’s eyes, not expecting Lu Nanzhi to be so decisive, thinking he would have to spend more time persuading.

What kind of feeling was it between humans that could drive someone to such selfless acts for another?

”I can hand her over to you, but not now.”

Hearing this, Lu Nanzhi’s gaze sharpened, preparing to draw her sword for a fight.

Shen Mingjing quickly stepped back half a step, raising his hand in surrender.

”Wait, if you kill me now, she won’t survive either. As long as you come back to the Demon Realm with me and complete what I want you to do, I promise to return her to you unharmed.”

Shen Mingjing’s eyes were sincere, ”I never make promises I can’t keep. If I say something, I never break my word!”

He had said these words to Jiang Yuebai in the Kunxi Divine Palace before.

Lu Nanzhi’s grip on the sword tightened continuously until her knuckles turned white, and her whole body trembled slightly.

In the end, she sheathed her sword, abandoning the struggle.

She could gamble with her own life but not take risks with Little Bai’s life.

”You better do it!”

Shen Mingjing raised his eyebrows with a smile, making a gentlemanly gesture of invitation to Lu Nanzhi. Not far behind him was the Fire Qilin in the form of a green ox.

If Lu Nanzhi had fought desperately just now, the Fire Qilin would surely have intervened.

A forced situation bears no sweetness. Shen Mingjing didn’t forcefully bind Lu Nanzhi because the task he needed required her willing and utmost effort.

At this moment, Jiang Yuebai was in his hands, and from Lu Nanzhi’s reaction just now, she would undoubtedly exert herself well beyond her utmost for this reason.

Good, then!

At this moment, the world trembled, a streak of blue light swept across the sky; both paused, looking up to see the skyline dyed a faint blue, filling Lu Nanzhi’s heart with immense sadness, causing tears to involuntarily well up in her eyes, while Shen Mingjing was oblivious.

Azure snow fell, and all things withered.

All the trees and grasses in Zishan Forest quickly withered in the blue snow, losing all vitality in an instant.

In the Spiritual Platform Realm, Shen Huaxi and Xie Jingshan were covered in blue snowflakes, watching the vast lands dry and crack.

In the Nine Rivers Realm, Lii Jiuchuan walked out of the palace, watching the lush Yunping Mountain Range turn from green to withered yellow in the blink of an eye.

Warmth streamed from his eyes, as Lii Jiuchuan raised a hand to wipe his tears. At that moment, the entire Upper Realm and all of the Human Clan were engulfed in an inexplicable sorrow and grief.

In Zishan Forest, the Fire Qilin spoke faintly, ”The Mahayana of the Human Clan has fallen!”
