Immortals Step into Heaven

Deep in the Monster Mountain Range, a fourth-rank great demon golden spirit eagle sat at the head of a hall. There were many demon kings in the depths of the Monster Mountain Range, and it was extremely dangerous to go deep into the inner area of ​​the Monster Mountain Range. Even a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage would be in danger of his life if he entered the inner area of ​​the Monster Mountain Range.

The Golden Spirit Eagle's sharp gaze swept across the demonic beasts below, its majestic aura permeating the entire hall. It slowly spoke, its voice echoing through the hall like thunder. "Recently, human cultivators have become increasingly active, seemingly penetrating deep into the heart of the mountains. How should we respond?"

A third-rank Azure Cloud Bird stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "King, human cultivators are always greedy. They must be coveting our demon pills and natural treasures. We must strengthen our vigilance. If anyone invades, we will kill them without mercy!"

A gigantic two-headed snake hissed and swayed its body, saying, "Don't underestimate the enemy. Human cultivators have many methods and possess numerous magical weapons. We should unite with other demon kings to resist the invasion of human cultivators."

The Golden Spirit Eagle nodded slightly, then pondered for a moment before remarking, "What the two-headed snake said is absolutely correct. Send the order down, and send messengers to the other demon kings to discuss a joint strategy for resisting the enemy. Also, strengthen patrols throughout the mountain range, and report any sightings of human cultivators immediately."

The monsters responded in unison and dispersed, ready to carry out the Golden Spirit Eagle's orders. At this time, the atmosphere in the Monster Mountain Range became increasingly tense.

A third-level black panther hurried to the hall and said, "My Lord Demon King, a large number of human cultivators have come to the outskirts of the Monster Mountain Range, causing the little demons on the outskirts to run around everywhere, and some of the monsters have entered the inner area."

Upon hearing this, the Golden Spirit Eagle's eyes glared, its aura radiating fiercely. "Hmph, how dare a human cultivator be so presumptuous!" It narrowed its eyes slightly. "Black Panther, quickly gather the demon generals and strengthen the inner defenses. Also, send out spies to investigate the movements and intentions of the human cultivators."

The black panther took the order and left. A moment later, a group of powerful demon generals gathered outside the hall. The golden eagle looked at them and said in a deep voice,

Human monks are invading, and our Monster Mountain Range cannot sit idly by. Each of you must lead your subordinates and strictly guard the key points. If any human monks intrude into the inner circle, they will be killed without mercy.

The demon generals responded in unison, then quickly dispersed. The Golden Spirit Eagle stood atop the main hall, its mind racing. It knew the power of human cultivators, but the Monster Mountain Range wasn't a place to be taken advantage of. It secretly decided that if necessary, it would personally protect this monster territory.

At this time, there was a tense atmosphere in the Monster Mountain Range.

I don't know how long it took before the black panther returned to the hall.

The Demon King heard that the human race seemed to be interested in the Yunlong Sect ruins that existed thousands of years ago.

The Golden Spirit Eagle frowned slightly. "The ruins of the Yunlong Sect?" Humph, humans always go to war over some illusory treasure. Those ruins are in my Monster Mountain Range. How can I allow them to tamper with them?

It paced back and forth, pondering for a moment before saying, "Black Panther, pass on my orders. Keep a close eye on the movements of the human monks. Report back immediately if they show any signs of entering the mountains to search for ruins. Also, gather several capable demon kings to discuss this matter and see how we can deal with this sudden trouble."

Black Panther took the order and left.

Soon, several demon kings gathered in the Golden Spirit Eagle's main hall, expressing their dissatisfaction and concern over the intrusion of human cultivators.

"Human cultivators are greedy by nature. If they were to find the Yunlong Sect ruins, they would surely plunder the treasures there, potentially posing a greater threat to our Monster Mountain Range," said a demon king.

"Yes, we must stop them," another demon king echoed.

The Golden Spirit Eagle's eyes were determined. "Since that's the case, let's unite and jointly protect the Monster Mountain Range. If human cultivators enter the inner circle, let them retreat."

The demon kings all nodded, and the Rat King said viciously, "Why don't we send a beast tide to him and teach the human cultivators a lesson."

The Golden Spirit Eagle pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded. The beast tide's momentum could indeed intimidate human cultivators. However, careful planning was required, and rash action was not advisable.

A gigantic ape demon king said in a deep voice, "We should select elite demon beasts to form a vanguard force to attack the human monk camp. Then, follow with a large number of low-level demon beasts to create an overwhelming force."

A colorful poisonous python demon king twisted its body and hissed, saying that traps and poisonous fog could be set up on the path of the beast tide to make it difficult for human monks to defend against it.

The Golden Spirit Eagle glanced at the demon kings and said solemnly, "Alright, then, follow the plan. Pass the order down. Each demon king, return and select your demon beasts and prepare to launch the beast tide. Make sure the human cultivators understand that the Demon Beast Mountain Range is inviolable."

The demon kings took their orders and left. A tense and murderous atmosphere suddenly filled the Demon Beast Mountain Range. A surging beast tide was about to sweep towards the human monks like a storm.

Zheng Yuan and others are still trying to find out the news.

Senior Brother Tang, Senior Brother Xu, we have been searching for a long time but have not found any clues, Zheng Yuan said with a wry smile.

Junior Brother Zheng, are the Yunlong Sect ruins so easy to find?

So many people have been searching outside the Monster Mountain Range but there has been no movement. The ruins of the Yunlong Sect must be something more than ordinary.

Senior Brother Xu rubbed his chin, pondering, "Perhaps our approach is flawed. A blind search by so many people would be inefficient and likely attract the attention of monsters. Why not start with some ancient records or local legends? Perhaps we can find a key clue."

Senior Brother Tang nodded in agreement. "Junior Brother Xu makes sense," he said. "Junior Brother Zheng, go ask around to see if there are any legends or special places related to the Yunlong Sect ruins. We can't just keep searching like this without any clues."

Zheng Yuan replied, "Okay, I'll go find out right away." Then he turned and left.

Zheng Yuan was gathering information at a gathering place for mortals near the Monster Mountain Range.

But the news I heard was all useless and not very helpful.

There wasn't even any trace of the Yunlong Sect, and no one knew of its existence.

Zheng Yuan returned to Senior Brothers Tang and Xu, feeling disappointed. He said helplessly, "Senior Brothers Tang and Xu, I've been asking around in the mortal settlements for a long time, but haven't gotten any useful information. These mortals don't seem to know the existence of the Yunlong Sect at all."

Senior Brother Tang frowned slightly and sighed, "It seems the Yunlong Sect ruins are even more mysterious than we imagined. Since we can't find out through mortal means, we can only find another way."

Over the past few days, Zheng Yuan, Xu Wen, and Tang Shishan have searched many places and encountered many cultivators looking for the Yunlong Sect. Fortunately, everyone is trying to find the Yunlong Sect ruins, so there is no fighting.

Instead, they exchange information with each other and want to hear some useful information from each other.

Zheng Yuan looked at the monks coming and going and sighed, "I didn't expect so many people were searching for the Yunlong Sect ruins." It seemed everyone was eager to try their luck, which was why so many people were flocking there.
