The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2928 The Immortal-Demon Passage is Permanently Opened?
"Since you are new to the Crimson Immortal Realm, you may not know about the war between immortals and demons. The root of the war between immortals and demons lies in the Immortal-Demon Passage."

Mu Tianjun stopped his work, his gaze falling on Lin Chen's face, and said in a gentle tone: "The Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm were originally two separate planes, but under certain conditions, these two planes will overlap, and the overlapping point is this Immortal-Demon Passage."

"The demons are powerful and warlike. Compared with the immortal realm, the demon realm has a relatively harsh environment and scarce cultivation resources. Therefore, the demon realm has always regarded conquering the immortal realm as their ultimate goal."

“Every time the planes overlap and the passage between immortals and demons opens, it is the time when the demons launch a large-scale attack on the immortal realm. What we need to do is to hold the line and prevent the demon army from breaking through the line.”

"As long as we hold our ground, the overlapping planes will separate again after a period of time, and the immortal-demon passage will close."

"Since the Demon Realm discovered the Immortal-Demon Passage and invaded the Immortal Realm, the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm have fought twenty-seven wars. The Immortal Realm was the victor in all twenty-seven wars. No, to be precise, the Demon Realm attacked twenty-seven times, and the Immortal Realm successfully defended itself twenty-seven times."

"Although we have defended against the demons' attacks in all twenty-seven battles, the price we paid each time was different. In fact, those seemingly impregnable defenses were breached eight times."

“Every time the defense line is breached, it means that the battlefield situation is extremely bad. More people need to die in order to wear down the attacking demons, buy time, and drag the passage until it is closed, forcing the demon army to retreat. Because if they do not retreat, they will be completely annihilated without any reinforcements after the passage is closed.”

As Lin Chen listened to Mu Tianjun's account, imagining the scene of the magnificent defensive line being overwhelmed by swarms of demons, his mood became heavy.

Every inch of our land was bought with blood. Countless immortals stood guard on this defensive line, and the collapse of the line meant the death of countless immortals.

Mu Tianjun sighed: "If the Immortal-Demon Passage had a fixed opening schedule, perhaps we wouldn't be so anxious. At worst, we could fight a defensive battle every now and then. After all, with the Immortal-Demon Passage's location fixed, defense has the advantage."

"This is also why, in our twenty-seven major battles, no matter how dire the situation became, we were always able to successfully defend and win."

Lin Chen couldn't help but ask, "Has something changed in the Immortal-Demon Passage?"

"It's not that things have changed now, but that the Immortal-Demon Passage has been constantly changing!"

Mu Tianjun casually took out a jade slip and tossed it to Lin Chen: "This is the schedule of the twenty-seven battles. Take a look and see if there are any changes."

Lin Chen caught the jade slip and channeled his divine sense into it, reading the information within. "In the year 79002 of the Crimson Calendar, the Immortal-Demon Passage opened for the first time. Initially, a small number of demons entered the Crimson Immortal Realm through the passage, clashing with the local power, the Chen Tian Sect. Subsequently, a large influx of demons invaded, and the Chen Tian Sect was annihilated in an instant, thus beginning the First Immortal-Demon War..."

"In the year 84028 of the Crimson Calendar, the Immortal-Demon Passage opened for the second time. Because of the first Immortal-Demon War, the Immortal Realm was already on guard, and the two sides engaged in a great battle in the Immortal-Demon Passage..."

"In the year 88782 of the Crimson Calendar, the Third Great War between Immortals and Demons..."

"In the year 93132 of the Crimson Calendar, the Fourth Great War between Immortals and Demons..."

Every war between immortals and demons was fierce, but as Mu Tianjun said, no matter the cost, the immortal realm won twenty-seven defensive victories, firmly blocking the demons' invasion.

Lin Chen read through the lines of text, then suddenly stopped, a look of shock appearing in his eyes.

Why are the numbers for this date getting closer and closer?

Lin Chen quickly calculated that the time interval between the first and second Immortal-Demon Wars was 5026 years, the time interval between the second and third Immortal-Demon Wars was 4754 years, and the time interval between the third and fourth wars was 4350 years!
When was the last war between immortals and demons? Only a thousand years ago!
Lin Chen looked up in horror: "The opening time of the Immortal-Demon Passage is continuously decreasing!"

Mu Tianjun sighed, "Yes, this is what we are most worried about. The opening time of the passage has changed from 5000 years to a thousand years now. Not only that, you have also discovered the demon race in the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm. This has never happened before!"

As Lin Chen listened to Mu Tianjun's words and thought about the possible drastic changes, his scalp tingled.

"If this continues, will the two planes permanently overlap, and the Immortal-Demon Passage remain permanently open?"

Mu Tianjun nodded: "Yes, this is the worst-case scenario. Judging from the appearance of demons in the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm, there are probably some other terrible situations that we are unaware of..."
