Chapter 516: The Plan Fails
The premise for the immortals to live in seclusion in the world is that there is no external threat that can shake their absolute rule in the Xuan Tian Realm.
The Holy Yao Emperor was one, but he has already been dealt with.
The heretical cultivation alliance was also dealt with, but its resurgence and comeback were completely unexpected.
But if the demon realm is behind this, then...
The fact that the Immortal Realm continues to live in seclusion is tantamount to handing over the Xuan Tian Realm to the Demon Realm!
Since the end of the primordial era, the Void Immortal Realm has been plotting a grand future and scheming the big picture within this "Little Mystic Heaven Realm." Countless eras have passed, and now the Demon Realm wants to jump out and reap the rewards, and what they are eating is the fruit of their hard work for so long! But if they were to emerge now and fight against the Demon Realm, all of the Void Immortal Realm's long-term efforts to remain in seclusion would also be in vain.
Now, all that's left for the Immortal Realm is bad and the worst option.
The lesser of two evils.
“…wait and see what happens.”
Gu Yun uttered four words in a low voice, his eyes slightly narrowed, clearly considering the pros and cons of the matter.
"Should we wait now?"
Yunshang burst out laughing, "Wait until the Demon Realm's conspiracy plunges the entire Xuantian Realm into flames and causes widespread suffering, until they force us into a corner with nowhere to hide and a passive fight?"
"Will all the efforts of the entire Immortal Realm be in vain?"
Yunshang's voice was very high-pitched, almost explosive.
She didn't like feeling pressured like this.
The Immortal Realm has been living in seclusion for too long and has forgotten the tumultuous and bloody years of the primordial era. The power of the Demon Realm should never be underestimated, and strictly speaking, this Little Mystic Realm is incomparable to the Demon Realm.
The thirteen half-step Immortal Venerables here are the strongest, but the Demon Realm has far more than thirteen Demon Venerables! They even have Demon Kings and Demon Emperors!
At this point, should we remain inactive and watch the tigers fight from the sidelines?
"I don't care what you think, I absolutely do not think that waiting and seeing is a good thing."
Yunshang's expression was resolute.
"Immortal Venerable Yunshang... what insightful opinion do you have?"
Gu Yun raised his eyes, his cold voice carrying a dragon's might.
"It's out of the question."
Yunshang responded calmly, "Since it's only the demon race and the evil cultivator alliance doing the work right now, it means the true fighting force of the Demon Realm hasn't arrived yet. We must strike immediately to quell this chaos!" "Otherwise, if we wait any longer, powerful cultivators from the Demon Realm will cross over, and it will be too late. Everyone here is at the half-step Immortal Venerable level, but if the Demon Realm were to truly fight, there would be far more than just thirteen Demon Venerables."
This statement came out.
Other "Immortal Venerables" also began to consider it.
They had all experienced the terror of the demon realm. If they could seize the initiative by launching an attack now, they would at least have a slight advantage.
“…Damn humans.”
Although Gu Yun's expression did not change, the depths of his eyes slowly turned extremely gloomy, as if dark clouds were gathering and a storm was about to brew. He cursed inwardly.
He was a dragon, and his lifespan was so long that even if he reached the Immortal Venerable level, it would be incomparable to that of humans or any other race.
There was only one of the "Thirteen Immortal Venerables".
However, as time went on, the number of half-step immortals also began to increase.
Gradually.
Gu Yun's voice became increasingly weak.
The result is what we have now.
However... there is a secret that he has never shared with these "immortal venerables".
For Gu Yun, seclusion has a deeper meaning!
That is, he wants to find the "reason" behind the Five Realms War!
The Five Realms War actually had a rather strange cause, because the Xuan Tian Realm was just a "mortal realm" in theory. Everything that existed there existed in the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm. So why would they fight to the death for the sake of the "mortal realm"?
Why would those cultivators who have transcended the "mortal realm" fight to the death for this world?
This question had lingered in Gu Yun's mind since the primordial era, even though he was just an ordinary pseudo-immortal dragon at the time and had not yet reached his current level of cultivation.
But this question has never been answered.
But that doesn't stop Gu Yun from having a guess in his mind!
He believed that the Xuan Tian Realm was definitely not that simple!
What "secret" does this "mortal realm" hold that would make even Demon Emperors and Immortal Emperors flock to it, willing to fight for it and risk everything, even if it means mountains of corpses and seas of blood?
To obtain this secret...
That means we've gone a step further!
Reaching a more powerful realm than Immortal Emperor and Demon Emperor!
This sparked a great war among the five realms, as everyone wanted to obtain the "secret" hidden within the Xuan Tian Realm. The war resulted in widespread devastation and bloodshed across the five realms. Ultimately, however, no one obtained the spoils of war.
After Gu Yun figured this out...
He knew then that this was his chance!
Now that neither the Immortal Realm nor the Demon Realm can touch the Xuan Tian Realm, the Void Immortal World can still do so. So why not take this opportunity to find the answer to the "secret" that everyone wants?
This is the real reason why the immortals of the mortal world live in seclusion.
Because the Five Realms Passage was broken, the Xuan Tian Realm could no longer produce any cultivators who transcended the "mortal level". Immortal level cultivators would be a dimensional reduction attack on the beings of the Xuan Tian Realm!
Now, what the ancient meteorite needs is time.
This "secret" is hidden too deeply and cannot be found, but given enough time, everything will be fine.
You have to keep it a secret from others.
But at this very moment... the Demon Realm dared to jump out, attempting to reclaim control of the Xuan Tian Realm?! This was no less than a blow to Gu Yun's head.
in fact.
At this point, Gu Yun understood to some extent that his plans were destined to fail.
The Demon Realm is not something that the Immortal Realm can handle; the Immortal Realm must intervene. But once both the Immortal and Demon Realms get involved, what chance will it have?
It was impossible for Gu Yun to make any further struggles.
Because those in the Immortal Realm who want to oppose him, especially Yunshang, will never give him a friendly look again!
So angry!
