The Wrathful Asura King, arguably the second most powerful being of the demonic path and the Demon Race almost comparable to the true supreme being leading the entire demonic path and the Demon Race, and an apex existences standing at the absolute peak right before immortality.
That’s right, he was a Perfected Half Immortal!
Even Demon Lord Nine Calamities couldn’t compare to him!
Such was the backing of the Demon Saint, Ye Ling!
It wasn’t just the Wrathful Asura King, but all the other leaders of the demonic path and the Demon Race who were aiding him from the background. In this sense, the entire demonic path and the Demon Race were backing him up, making him nearly unmatched in terms of backing in the entire world.
It was because even though the righteous path was one, the powers within weren’t united, and each power mainly focused on their own prodigies.
Neither the Divinity Transcendence Venerable nor the Sovereign of Storms had the support of the entire righteous path, but just their own respective factions.
Ye Ling was already greater than all of them on this aspect. The title of the Demon Saint was no joke.
Ye Ling let out a deep sigh before saying in frustration, "Alright, I’ll trust you once again. Since other experts of the demonic path and the Demon Race are about to arrive, it’ll still be relatively safer. All that will be left is to take over the Isle of Heavenly Demons after winning the Righteous-Demonic War.
The higher ups of the righteous path and those who betrayed will definitely come to stop us if we delay even a bit. We need to avoid that outcome as much as possible."
His voice was solemn and filled with seriousness.
Kong Junyu couldn’t help but snort before speaking in a disapproving manner, "That is precisely why we’re going from here. We need to be quick and try to evade the righteous path’s perception. They still don’t know when the Demon Saint will take action and think there is still time for them when you in fact have already started to move. Our biggest advantage lies here."
"Stop with that lecture already. I understand the importance of this chance that we have right now. No need to explain it further. Let’s get moving now."
Ye Ling said with a dissatisfied tone of voice, waving his hand dismissively.
Kong Junyu didn’t say anything as the flying ship continued moving in the air.
...
A year later.
A massive flying ship tore through the clouds at extreme speed as it flew over the Pristine Waters and headed towards the Eastern Continent.
The entire flying ship was made of extremely precious heavenly treasures and earthly materials, making even the air bend and Spirit Qi to surge towards it to make its cultivation environment even better.
A young man sat in a cross-legged position as he floated in the air on the ship, the surroundings Spirit Qi being crazily absorbed by him. His eyes were closed as if he was thinking of something.
Countless streaks of Sword Intent formed around him and criss-crossed, his unparalleled might echoing through thousands of miles around the flying ship.

He wore a black white daoist robe with an extremely handsome face, and combining it with his heavenly aura made him look otherworldly.
This young man was none other than the Divinity Transcendence Venerable, Wang Daoyun.
"What are you thinking about?"
Suddenly, a calm, soothing voice came from the side, causing Wang Daoyun to open his eyes and turn around.
What entered his vision was an exceedingly beautiful woman seeming to be in her early twenties. Her long brown hair flowed in the air as she calmly looked over him.
There was a hidden but powerful Spear Intent coiling around her, a single stroke of it strong enough to pierce through the world.
She was the fifth young lady of the Great Lin Immortal Family, Lin Xiaoxiao!
Not just that, she was also the most powerful prodigy of the Lin Family’s current generation, an existence at the Ninth Stage of Tribulation Transcendence Realm!
She was set to be the next head of the Lin Family, just like how the Serene Night Sword Saintess was supposed to be the next Sect Master of the Seven Star Sword Sect.
The cultivation world existed in true equality of nearly all aspects. As long as a cultivator was capable enough, then their gender or origins did not matter.
This was why any cultivator irrespective of gender could inherit any faction and such as long as they were capable of it.
Even female cultivators had multiple Dao Companions in some cases, just like their male counterparts.
Thus, it really was true equality in nearly all aspects. The reason it wasn’t in all aspects but nearly all aspects is because the bottom of the cultivation world was still the same, it was just that only stronger cultivators could have those privileges.
Seeing Lin Xiaoxiao, Wang Daoyun sat up straight and came down before speaking.
"My intuitions are telling me that this trip to slay the Demon Saint this time isn’t going to be smooth. As you already know, the Demon Saint is probably a key figure in the plans of the demonic path and the Demon Race. There is going to be a catastrophic event upon the world if he survives, and there’s no way the demonic path or the Demon Race are going to leave him alone.
They will surely send a top expert of at least the Half Immortal Realm to ensure his safety. In such a dire situation, sending just a bunch of Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivators to stop him seems like a stupid idea. I can’t understand what the higher ups are thinking. I can’t contact grandmaster as well."
Even when the words he said were full of worriful thoughts, his expression still remained calm like the ocean, not wavering in the slightest.
Listening to his worries, Lin Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes slightly as she spoke, "We can’t guess the thoughts of the higher ups. We can only do what we’re told. I’m sure they must have thought things through before sending us here. There’s no way the righteous path can afford to lose all of its geniuses in a single round, right?
Even if you don’t trust any higher ups and even your master, at least have some faith in your grandmaster. He’s not an indecisive person, you know him better than myself."
Her soothing voice entered Wang Daoyun’s ears, her words slightly calming the latter’s unsettled heart.
Lin Xiaoxiao knew better than to undermine the intuitions of a cultivator at the Eighth Stage of Tribulation Transcendence Realm, that too a supreme genius who could rival multiple peak Tribulation Transcendence Realm experts.
So, instead of telling him that his intuitions were wrong, she just said what should be the most logical answer for the current situation.
And yes, Wang Daoyun had broken through to the Eighth Stage of Tribulation Transcendence Realm not too long ago.
"That aside, isn’t there a genius of a Lin Family branch in the Eastern Continent who’s comrades and friends with the newly risen Supreme Archer? It’s said that both of them alongside a few others are the supreme geniuses of the younger generation. How much truth there is to it?"
Changing the topic swiftly, Wang Daoyun asked as he turned around and looked into the horizon far away.
Nodding slowly, Lin Xiaoxiao replied in a monotone voice, "Yes, even though I’m not fully aware of the authenticity of the news, the Supreme Archer is indeed qualified to fight for the position of one of the supreme geniuses of the younger generation. He has led the forces of the Demon Subjugation Heavenly Alliance to win many battles in the past decades while having great abilities himself.
It’s said that he’s from the Eternal Peak and even a Personal Disciple of the Eternal Lord. You should look into the background of the Eternal Peak and the Eternal Lord when you have the chance."
By the end, her voice turned a bit more serious as she looked at the back of Wang Daoyun.
"The Eternal Lord? You mean the Master of Eternal Peak?"
Wang Daoyun couldn’t help but turn around ask in a slightly confused tone of voice.
"Yes, it’s quite appropriate to call him that since he’s such a powerful personage who was a very strong cultivator in his past life. He won’t suffer any backlash since it wasn’t him who proclaimed himself the Eternal Lord. Many people in the Heavenly Region call him the Eternal Lord as well."
Lin Xiaoxiao quickly explained to him.
"So you’re also just going along with the trend, huh? The Eternal Lord...sounds a lot better than the Divinity Transcendence Venerable, does it not?"
He narrowed his eyes secretly as he looked forward again.
Seeing his behavior, she was somewhat stunned before a smile appeared on her otherwise stoic face.
"Of course not. The Divinity Transcendence Venerable is leagues above the Eternal Lord."
