C3682 Strategy
It wasn't that the six sects really didn't have the strength to forcefully slaughter the demons in the Demonic Beast region, but rather, it wasn't worth it.
The two Demonic Beasts were both possessed by the demon race, the peak of the third level of the Nascent Soul stage... Even if they forcefully slaughtered their way in, if the two possessed the demon race and wanted to leave, how could the six sects keep them?
Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Transformation... The peak of the Third Stage of Nascent Transformation was already Tian Lan, the peak of the realm. Once the Goat Dragon Beast and the Ice Flame Scarlet Dragon wanted to leave, who could keep them?
Therefore, if the Human Clan wanted to get rid of the Illusion Spirit Jade Devils that possessed the Goat Dragon Beast and the Ice Flame Scarlet Dragon, they could only prepare in advance.
Under many factors, the six sects could only choose a sufficient amount of bait to lure the two devils.
As for the two devils... they had been suppressed in the Demon Sealing Secret Realm for an unknown number of years. After a long period of time, even an idiot would become an old fox.
They were even more cunning than the people of the six sects.
When Jian Chen had just arrived and told them the news, they had already guessed the actions of the six sects.
And now, as expected... the bait had come.
It was the bait that they had to kill.
Even if they knew it was the bait, they still had to bite it... There was no lack of smart people in the six sects. After they put themselves in their shoes, they had already guessed that the demons might be able to see through their plan.
However, they still acted in this manner, because it was an open scheme!
The six sects had used an open plot. Even though they knew that it was a trap, they could only step into it!
Jian Chen and the other three demons knew that the six sects were plotting against them, and the six sects could guess that the three demons had seen through the truth... The final outcome would perhaps depend on who had a higher level of strategy.
As for both sides, they were confident in their own intelligence and were confident that they could scheme against each other.
...
Time flew by, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The Demon Suppression City.
In the depths of the main hall of City Lord's Mansion.
Jiang Ting entered the main hall through the door. "Junior Jiang Ting greets Senior City Lord."
The main hall was the same as before, except for Ye Yan.
Seeing Jiang Ting enter, Ye Yan flicked her finger and a jade slip flew to Jiang Ting.
Jiang Ting took the jade slip and sent his Divine Sense into it.
Not long later.
Ye Yan estimated that Jiang Ting had roughly read the jade slip once. She said softly, "I just received some news. Recently, the beast tide has been restless. Many Demonic Beasts clans had gathered. If nothing unexpected happened, there would be a day when... They will definitely gather together and attack the Demon Suppressing City. "
"Senior is right." Jiang Ting nodded in agreement.
There wasn't much information recorded in the jade slip. Just as Ye Yan had said, in the Demonic Beast region across from the Demon Suppression City, many of the Demonic Beasts in other regions had begun to gather outside the city.
It was obvious that they were preparing to gather into a flood and attack the Demon Suppression City.
At the same time, only a small portion of the teams that had gone out to clear out the Demonic Beast had completed their mission. Most of the teams had encountered other strongholds of the Demonic Beast, and had suffered heavy losses.
Ye Yan nodded lightly and instructed, "The Demon Suppressing City is currently in imminent danger. After a discussion, the six sects have decided to postpone the rest of their days. We'll do our best to clear out the strongholds of the Demonic Beast, and reduce the pressure on us in the future... Five thousand kilometers to the north... There is an abandoned city. Go and clear out the Demonic Beast in the city. Immediately head to the Demon Execution Palace and form a team."
According to the rules of the Demon Suppression City, after the mission to get rid of the remaining Demonic Beast, there would be a month's time for rest, recuperation, and so on... it was only half a month. Logically speaking, it should still be time for rest.
However, the Demonic Beast was about to launch a large-scale attack, so it was only natural for them to delay the resting time of the experts in the city.
At least, the development on the surface was not wrong.
"Alright." Jiang Ting did not refuse. He nodded and agreed. He turned around and left.
He was not fast, not slow, and his steps were steady. He seemed to know nothing, but at the same time, he seemed to ignore everything.
Seeing this, Ye Yan's eyes lit up. She quickly regained her calm.
...
Outside the City Lord's Mansion, beside the Demon Execution Palace.
After Jiang Ting walked out of the City Lord's Mansion, he quietly slowed down his pace and used his Divine Sense to sense his body.
He knew that although this mission seemed to be flawless, in fact, it was very likely that this mission would be his bait. If he could return from this mission, no one would object to his decision to leave the Demon City immediately.
But if he could not return this time... if he could not, then he would definitely be buried in the hands of the Demonic Beast Demon Clan. What else was there to say?
He could not place all his hopes in the hands of others! He wanted to do it. Even if Starfire and the others didn't appear in time, he could still use his own means to forcefully stall for time.
In his body, he only had his own magic sword, the spirit of the 36 magic treasures left by Daoist Fresh Breeze... and the means left behind by Starfire. However, he couldn't find them, and he didn't know where they were hidden.
After sensing for a while, Jiang Ting focused his Divine Sense on the magic sword. His magic sword wasn't the same as before.
Now, not only was there eight layers of the spirit restriction, there was also that half of the lightning!
There were eight layers of Spiritual Restriction. Once it was activated, combined with his peak Earth Realm cultivation, no one under the Soul Transformation stage would be able to kill him... But for those demons, Jian Chen was one thing, but the Goat Dragon Beast and the Ice Flame Scarlet Flood Dragon were not easy to deal with.
Fortunately, his lightning had an extraordinary origin.
Although it was only half a body, it was taken from the refined lightning, and it was still half a body.
After fusing with the magic sword, not only would it allow the magic sword's every movement to be accompanied by an attack of lightning, if he was willing, he could also think of a way to draw upon the essence of lightning that was fused into the magic sword and forcefully erupt with an attack that was comparable to a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.
Combined with the magic sword's eight layers of spirit restrictions... Even if Jiang Ting didn't have the time to raise his cultivation to the Heaven stage, with his current strength, perhaps he could also try to escape from the Nascent Soul Stage?
As he thought about it... Even though Jiang Ting's footsteps were slow, he still arrived in front of the Demon Execution Palace, which was bustling with activity and in a hurry.
"Devil... Lightning is the purest Yang, and the devil race is Yin. Even if there is an accident... If I can control it properly, I can use the magic sword to expel the devil race from the Demonic Beast's body. Without the Demonic Beast's body, a few demons that are as boundless as water are nothing to be afraid of. " Jiang Ting muttered in his heart. His expression remained the same as usual as he stepped into the Demon Execution Palace.
There was another whisper that he didn't even mutter in his heart... He had the means to deal with the two devils that possessed him, but he didn't want to use it.
Once he used it... on the surface, the Purple Frost Sect didn't have the time to rescue him.
If he didn't have time to rescue them... the Purple Frost Sect wouldn't have such a big flaw, unless the Purple Frost Sect had thought of giving him up... because it wasn't possible, so he didn't think about it, nor did he want to think about it.
If he thought too much, it would only add to his worries.
One breath later.
"Senior."
"Greetings, senior."
"You are... Senior Jiang."
As soon as Jiang Ting entered the Demon Execution Palace, many people in the hall hurriedly bowed to him. They all wore different clothes, and all of them were men, women, old, and young.
