Chapter 727: Breakthrough Over Thousands of Miles

In the Xia calendar year 6265, at Tianya Mountain Base…

The observation station was running as usual. The morning shift staff had just arrived at the office, while the evening shift staff were getting ready to go home.

On the big screen, some videos from inside the Demon Domain were playing. Occasionally, there would be a minor alarm, indicating damage to the Machine Magic Ant or a fault in a certain part. It wasn’t serious, so they would note it down and pass it on to another department to handle.

With the help of artificial intelligence, the work of these staff on duty was quite easy. They didn’t have any heavy tasks, just recording things every day.

Some staff on duty were discussing what to have for lunch in a private chat group. For them, the biggest problem in life was what to eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

"Ding, ding…"

After some time passed, suddenly, there was a beeping alarm on the computer screen. One of the staff on duty looked up and turned pale.

"Signal lost in area A036 to A147."

"Signal lost in area B025 to B248."

"Signals disappeared from area 135 to area 486"

"······"

One after another, the guards discovered something unusual. Signals disappeared from one area to another in the building, and in the hall, the number of signals decreased significantly. The alarm level also increased, and the piercing alarms spread throughout the entire office building.

The duty supervisor hurried out of his office and ordered to bring out a map to mark the locations where signals disappeared. It could be seen that from Demon God Temple, the Machine Magic Ant within a radius of hundreds of miles disappeared.

"Report it, quickly, report to the higher-ups, there’s an anomaly at Demon God Temple"

"Please authorize from above, should we mobilize the internal sub-observatory forces in Demon Domain to investigate Demon God Temple?"

The duty supervisor shouted, he couldn’t make decisions on his own now, he needed to report to the higher-ups and needed their authorization to deploy the forces from the internal observatory stations hidden in Demon Domain to investigate.

Demon God Temple

Hundreds of demons, including some fourth or fifth rank Demon Kings, were all cowering on the ground, trembling in fear and dare not lift their heads.

Even some sixth rank demons were trembling with fear, as if they had encountered something terrible, their eyes looking towards the direction of the Demon God Temple.

"Congratulations, Peng Bird Demon Emperor."

Fire Scale Demon Emperor and Shenwu Demon Emperor said to Lin Wanli with smiles.

"Thank you, both Demon Emperors."

"Peng Bird Demon Emperor advancing to the rank of Demon Emperor is a joyous occasion. Our demon clan now has another Demon Emperor…"

Fire Scale Demon Emperor and Shenwu Demon Emperor praised Lin Wanli with words of admiration, continuously praising him, and Lin Wanli basked in the glory.

"Brother."

Soon, Demon Queen Lin Fanghua appeared, she had just been away from the Demon God Temple and only realized the pressure brought by Lin Wanli’s breakthrough.

"Fanghua, I did it!"

"Great news, brother, our demon clan is going to win!"

Lin Fanghua also felt very happy. After thirty to forty years, Lin Wanli finally made a breakthrough. It was not in vain that she had high hopes for Lin Wanli.

"Sister, how are the humans doing? Are there any new Tao Achievements?"

"No, I have checked from different sources, but there are no new Tao Achievements emerging. Both the demon clan and the human clan are no longer as glorious as before."

Lin Fanghua talked about the time of cultivating immortality, where the human clan had over twenty Tao Achievements and the demon clan had over thirty Demon Emperors. What a great era it was! Even though there had been over two hundred years of spiritual energy recovery, it was still only about a third of what it used to be.

"Yes, it’s no longer the glorious era of the past, but the demon clan is sure to win again."

Lin Wanli said that the demon clan was already showing signs of a prosperous era. Though there were still few Demon Emperors, there were many more fifth and sixth level Demon Kings than before he went into seclusion. He had already sensed the presence of many Demon Kings.

"Brother, you focus on stabilizing your cultivation first. When I am fully prepared, we will challenge the human clan."

Lin Fanghua clenched her teeth and said she wasn’t going to attack right away, but instead wanted to prepare and give Lin Wanli time to stabilize his cultivation.

Lin Wanli nodded, he also didn’t want to start a war immediately, as he had just come out of seclusion and needed more time to stabilize his cultivation.

Lin Fanghua comforted Lin Wanli, and soon arrived at the Demon God Temple. She had someone sound the Kuiniu Drum, which echoed far and wide, gathering a large number of Demon Kings.

Ten days later, the Demon God Temple had assembled dozens of sixth-rank Demon Kings. It was a grand scene, almost like the cultivation era of the past, just without the seventh-rank.

"Everyone, be quiet. We have an important matter to discuss today. Our Peng Bird Clan in the Demon God Temple has a Demon King who broke through to the realm of Demon Emperor. Thus, the Demon God Temple is adding a Demon Emperor elder."

"This is a major event for our demon clan, a joyous occasion. Therefore, I have decided that three months from now, we will raise an army to attack the human race, to celebrate the prosperity of our demon clan."

"Do not think this decision was made lightly. Until today, our spiritual energy recovery has been hindered by the deaths of many Demon Kings of our demon clan at the hands of humans."

"The humans say, ‘Those who are not of our kind have different hearts.’ In the struggle between races, it’s either you die or I live. For the demon clan to prosper, we must crush the human race under our feet."

"Therefore, in this upcoming war, I have decided to go all out. All the demon clans in Fangzhang Continent will mobilize. Every demon of fourth rank or higher will join. The demon clans in all the seas of the Endless Sea will mobilize. Besides that, I will also order the demon clans in Ying Continent and the western part of Shen Continent to wait for the right time to act and restrain the human race."

Lin Fanghua was very determined this time. She wanted to have a final battle to defeat the human race completely and establish the dominance of the demon race.

The Demon Kings remained silent, some disagreed but were too afraid to speak up because the Demon Queen was very powerful.

The Heavenly Fox Demon King spoke up to agree, and the other Demon Kings followed suit.

The Demon God Temple started mobilizing immediately. Countless monsters emerged from the deep forests and the news quickly spread to Haigang City.

"The demon race has started mobilizing. We can’t just wait. Reinforce the Tianya Mountain Base and defend against the enemy."

"All factories should start working at full capacity and mobilize resources."

"Under the name of the Human Alliance, gather all human forces. All countries must participate in the war. Otherwise, strict sanctions will be imposed afterwards."

"Ying Continent needs to contain the demon race from Ying Continent…"

Lin Jiang also initiated mobilization immediately. He didn’t need to plan everything in detail. He just needed to set the mobilization level, and others would take care of the rest.

"Uncle, is this the final battle?"

"It’s basically the final battle, Cao Ying. Get ready, you are our main force."

"I know, I will be in charge of distracting the Demon Queen."

"No, this time we have to find a way to defeat her. With four Demon Emperors, we can’t stop them."

"Demon Queen is tough to kill."

"There will be a way when the time comes. We will set the battlefield in space, and I will go up there myself."

Lin Jiang said as he stopped speaking, and continued to let the artificial intelligence record. Now, all the cultivators who were on vacation or in seclusion were awakened to start active preparations.
