The cheat system is useless, but I have the strongest living dad.

When Xianyu set off from the Mingshan Sect, he unexpectedly received a message from Jiang Mingfa: "Shibao misses his mother very much."

Xianyu really wanted to reply with "Give up," but he was afraid that Xianyu would take his anger out on Shibao.

After thinking it over, Xianyu replied, "There's still no news about Yaoyao."

Jiang Ming quickly replied to the message: "Which secret realm did she go to?"

Xianyu thought that Dihe Secret Realm only opens once every few years, so it wouldn't hurt to tell him. So he replied: "Dihe Secret Realm".

Jiang Ming felt heavy-hearted when he saw the four characters "Dihe Secret Realm" in front of him.

He had heard about it decades ago when a new secret realm appeared in Dihe.

After some investigation, Zhen Shenzong also learned that the Dihe Secret Realm only opens once every few years.

Since Shen Yao has gone to the Dihe Secret Realm, she won't return in a few months as Shi Bao expected.

Jiang Ming recalled the time many years ago when he encountered Ning Yuan and Gou Yue in Xianmu City. At that time, Ning Yuan was seriously injured and his strength was greatly reduced.

The sect leader and hall master of the largest sect of the demon race, the Mingshan Sect, did not stay in the sect. Instead, they appeared silently in the Immortal Wood City of the Immortal race, thousands of miles away. He found this incredible at the time.

Looking back now, it's likely that it's inextricably linked to the Dihe Secret Realm.

Could it be that... the exit and entrance of the Dihe Secret Realm are not in the same place?

Is the entrance in the Immortal Realm?

Where in the Immortal Realm would it be?

Ning Yuan must have been seriously injured not long ago, so it seems the exit is in Rongzhou.

The strangest thing that has happened in Rongzhou in recent years is that many thorny beasts have emerged from Lishui Ridge.

Those thorny beasts all came from the fissures in the Lishui Ridge.

The thorny beast, the insect eggs, and the insect queen in the fissure were all killed by an unknown person.

It seems that a powerful cultivator suddenly appeared and wiped out those strange beasts.

Could the exit be located in the fissure in Lishui Ridge?

Did the Insect Queen also escape from the secret realm?

Ning Yuan was a peak-level Demon Saint back then. He and Gou Yue, both Demon Saints, appeared in Immortal Wood City severely injured. As for Shen Yao... she only had a sixth-grade, fifth-level spiritual root...

Jiang Ming examined his own seal in the mirror again and again. There was nothing unusual about the seal, so Shen Yao must still be alive and well, just trapped in the secret realm.

Jiang Ming sent another message: "Is her father with her?"

I waited for a long time but did not receive a reply.

Jiang Ming understood; Huo Xianzun must be with Shen Yao.

The lack of response must be because they are worried that, with no Venerable One to oversee the Underworld Sect and the current power of the Immortal Clan, they will directly attack.

Their concerns indicate that the Mingshan Sect is in a weak position.

We also have to thank that mysterious peak-stage immortal venerable who slaughtered four evil cultivation cities of the demon race.

Otherwise, the True God Sect would not have been able to successfully occupy three of the cities, let alone send high-ranking cultivators to deal with the evil cultivators in the south.

The border war was originally at a stalemate, which was unfavorable to the Immortal Clan. However, the Immortal Venerable's massacre of the city broke the deadlock, and the Immortal Clan's strength increased greatly as a result.

During the years that Ning Yuan and Gou Yue were away from the Mingshan Sect, the Mingshan Sect must have suffered a major upheaval.

Perhaps the Mingshan Sect is now just an empty shell propped up by two Demon Saints.

Since that's the case, then it's quite necessary to go and fight.

Now that he's an Immortal Ancestor, if he invites his sister along, Jiang Qi would definitely be happy to join him in taking down Xucheng and then conquering Chongcheng.

Regardless of whether it's the exit of the Dihe Secret Realm, the entrance, or the fissure in Lishui Ridge, he wants to bring Shen Yao back to the True God Sect as soon as she comes out.

After finalizing the plan, Jiang Ming found Jiang Qi and invited her to join him in attacking Chongcheng.

Surprisingly, Jiang Qi didn't beat him up. Instead, she praised him for finally making some progress, saying he knew how to conquer and expand his territory, and that he was no longer obsessed with female immortals...

Jiang Ming pretended not to hear the sarcastic remarks.

He devoted himself to cultivation for 1,200 years and never thought about female immortals. He finally fell in love with one, so what if he thought about her?

Moreover, they had already formed a bond and had a child; he was thinking of his wife.

The child was born to be an immortal emperor, and Jiang Ming smiled as he thought about it.

Jiang Qi was making sarcastic remarks, but then she saw her sinister younger brother reveal a warm and sweet smile on his face...

Jiang Qi's expression froze, and her sarcastic words stopped.

Could it be that he's really gone crazy because I've been too harsh on my younger brother all these years?

I just didn't beat him up, and I just praised him a couple of times, and he's this happy?

Something's not right. Jiang Ming is acting very strangely.

……

Immortal Clan, Jeju Island, Weicheng.

After receiving the Perfect Stone from Shen Yao, Wei Zhuang returned to Weicheng and first solved the problem of food and medicine shortages.

They also recruited a large number of high-level cultivators, reinforced various barriers, and mobilized their forces to besiege the evil cultivators.

In addition, the mysterious immortal lord slaughtered four evil cultivation cities, greatly reducing the power of evil cultivators.

The Acropolis finally managed to survive, barely clinging to life.

Cheng Qiang, the sect leader of the Tianhe Sect in Luoyang City, Jeju, was persuaded by his closed-door disciple Chu Yun to move the entire sect to Weicheng and merge with the Huxian Sect to fight against the evil cultivators.

With the Tianhe Sect, a major sect, taking the lead, some intermediate sects also moved to Weicheng and merged with the Huxian Sect.

With the increased strength of Weicheng, other cities along the Jeju border, unable to withstand the evil cultivators, would even bypass the True God Sect and directly seek help from the Protectorate Immortal Sect.

In recent years, Weicheng has developed very rapidly. If it weren't located on the border and too close to the evil cultivators' border city, Weicheng would definitely become the leader of Jeju.

The 18th of every month in the Acropolis is the festival of Sudhana, and the Sudhana Temple is always bustling with worshippers.

A few months ago, Master Jiang of the Wind God Hall of the True God Sect suddenly came to Weicheng and personally prayed for Immortal Lord Shibao.

Since then, cultivators from all over the Immortal Clan have come to worship in an endless stream, and the Tongzi Temple has doubled in size.

The Acropolis is now becoming increasingly prosperous.

With the immortals' borders secure, life will be tough for the evil cultivators.

Originally, they could have launched a large-scale invasion and captured the evil cultivators who were cultivating immortality during the change of the forbidden realm. Now, not only can they not capture immortal cultivators, but they are also frequently besieged by the enemy and suffer repeated defeats.

The cultivation methods of evil cultivators can only rely on devouring the soul cores of cultivators or absorbing their spiritual consciousness.

Once they stop absorbing and digesting, they will suffer a backlash, their power will regress instead of progress, and in severe cases, their spiritual roots will wither.

The immortals were no longer a match for them; mutual devouring would only lead to their complete annihilation. So the evil cultivators turned their attention to their own kind of demonic cultivators.

Led by the Soul Devouring Sect and the Pleasure Seeking Sect, they disregarded the ceasefire agreement with the demonic cultivation sects represented by the Underworld Mountain Sect and began attacking the cities where demonic cultivators gathered, plunging the demon race into internal strife once again.

Demons are inherently bloodthirsty and easily tempted; evil cultivators can corrupt demon cultivators very quickly.

After the heretical cultivators turned against them, the Mingshan Sect, which had already experienced a sect betrayal, was plunged into war once again.

At this very moment, Jiang Qi and Jiang Ming, the siblings from the True God Sect, led a large number of immortal cultivators to attack Xucheng. Within a month, they had cleared Xucheng and were advancing straight towards Chongcheng.

The Mingshan Sect only has one peak-stage Demon Ancestor in charge, while Chongcheng has several Demon Ancestors. However, Jiang Qi is a Celestial Venerable, and Chongcheng does not have a single Demon Venerable who can contend with him.

Jiang Qi is very strong; it took four Demon Ancestors to barely fight her.

Chongcheng's border defenses suffered repeated setbacks, and the Demon Clan's strength was so weak that Gouyue and Ningyuan were in a state of utter disarray...
