Chapter 665: Chapter 664 Unpredictable Fate
The Origin Sect Master had a wry smile on his face.
Since when had the Saint Realm become as common as cabbages that you’d find everywhere?
In the Dao Realm, the Saint Realm was considered top-notch combat power, the foundation of every force, and the more Saint Realm figures a side had, the more powerful it was.
"Over three hundred Saint Realms, this is simply an astronomical number, and behind the Demon God Temple there is also the existence of a Hall Master, how did he manage to make so many loyal to him?"
The sky-reaching elder also shook his head repeatedly.
It was quite normal to make several Saint Realm figures loyal to one.
But when the number reached three hundred, that was something that seemed to only happen in myths.
Even he himself couldn’t do it.
Unless one was truly an emperor, able to crush all opposition.
"Where exactly did this Demon God Temple spring up from, could it be the Forbidden Land? Or the Celestial Realm?" the Origin Sect Master said, furrowing his brow.
The Demon God Temple seemed to have appeared out of thin air, and their traces simply couldn’t be found.
This was causing the Yuanchu Sect a lot of headaches; the most troublesome was this kind of untraceable force.
"The Forbidden Land may have many strong figures, but not so many Saint Realms."
"And the passage to the Celestial Realm has been sealed for countless years, no one can come down, so it shouldn’t be people from the Celestial Realm."
Although there used to be a passage between the Dao Realm and the Celestial Realm long ago, it had since been broken.
They were aware of that.
So the sky-reaching elder did not believe they were from the Celestial Realm.
Besides, if they really were from the Celestial Realm, why would they go to such lengths to form an assassination organization?
Given the strength of the Celestial Realm, it would be far too easy for them to deal with us.
"So where do you think they have sprung up from?"
"There’s one possibility, and that is that people from the last era who were in slumber have awakened in this one."
The sky-reaching elder shared his speculation.
Because in every era, many strong figures would go into slumber, although none as terrifying as the Demon God Temple.
An awakening dynasty would often have a Quasi-Emperor leading several Saint Realms as generals.
But there hasn’t been one like the Demon God Temple where they strike with a few hundred at once.
"Why don’t you divine it? Aren’t you skilled at deduction?"
The Origin Sect Master said to the sky-reaching elder.
The sky-reaching elder gave the Origin Sect Master a faint glance and said, "I don’t want to die yet!"
Upon hearing this, the Origin Sect Master was taken aback.
It seemed that he didn’t understand.
"Of course I’ve calculated it, but I was backlashed just by glancing at it. Tell me, if I continue to deduce, wouldn’t I be putting my life on the line?"
The sky-reaching elder said, taking a sip of tea.
He had actually wanted to know the background of the Demon God Temple from the beginning, but the intensity of the backlash made him feel the threat of death.
He knew this was not something he could probe into.
Most importantly, he felt that even if he gave his life, he might not be able to find out anything.
"Heaven’s secrets are difficult to scrutinize!"
"Perhaps you’re right, these are figures from the last era. We’re too far removed from that time; it’s understandable that we don’t know."
The Origin Sect Master didn’t continue the topic, the sky-reaching elder had said it was untraceable, and that was enough to show the severity of the issue.
"The Red Moon Wolf Clan has probably also received the news about the Demon God Temple. Given Wolf Dust’s character, it’s likely he will drag down the ancient races, maybe even the entire Myriad Tribes."
"If he really does that, war will still come," the Origin Sect Master said gravely.
The sky-reaching elder nodded slightly, "It is inevitable for Wolf Dust to do so; he should have contacted the ancient races by now, and might even claim that this is our human race’s conspiracy, trying by all means to discredit us."
"So what should we do now? The Demon God Temple has no stance, and if we help them, who knows if they will remember our kindness," the Origin Sect Master said, frowning.
If it was a human race force, he would have helped without a second thought.
Only now they had no idea about the identity of the Demon God Temple, so he was hesitant about offering assistance.
"It’s no longer about helping the Demon God Temple now. If the Myriad Tribes enter the fray, then it becomes an issue for the human race. In other words, if they start fighting and the Demon God Temple hides, will they be able to find them?"
"If the Demon God Temple disappears, then the human race will become the target of the Myriad Tribes."
"So now we don’t need to worry about whether the Demon God Temple accepts our goodwill," the sky-reaching elder sighed.
This wasn’t a question of whether to help anymore; it had become a must.
If the Demon God Temple didn’t care any longer, then that’s when the real trouble would start.
Unable to find the Demon God Temple, the enraged Myriad Tribes would target the human race.
Thus, the human race had to get involved, and the sky-reaching elder bore a great responsibility for today’s events.
If it had not been for his mission, none of these things would have happened.
For a moment, the sky-reaching elder felt some regret.
"Actually, we still have another way," the Origin Sect Master said after some thought: "The Demon God Temple is too dangerous; perhaps we should help the Myriad Tribes to eradicate them. The recent events have all been triggered by the Demon God Temple, and without them, the Dao Realm would regain peace."
The Origin Sect Master’s idea was simple: to restore the Dao Realm back to the era before the Demon God Temple existed.
In fact, the Origin Sect Master wasn’t wrong in his thinking; the Demon God Temple was an organization without allegiance, willing to assassinate anyone for the right price.
This meant that the human race was also one of the targets of the Demon God Temple.
"I would advise against such thoughts," the sky-reaching elder immediately said.
"Why?"
The Origin Sect Master did not understand, wouldn’t solving the problem of the Demon God Temple eliminate all their issues?
"The origins of the Demon God Temple are too mysterious, and they have a multitude of powerful members. The ones exposed now number a few hundred already; no one knows if they have more hidden inside."
"Also, haven’t you had enough of the Red Moon Wolf Clan’s tragedy?"
"If you get targeted in the future, your sect will suffer a crushing blow."
"In just a few days, the Demon God Temple has already slain over fifty Saint Realms, and these deaths were not even reported immediately."
"What does that indicate? It means the Demon God Temple has a way to conceal their fate from the heavens, to the extent that even Life Lamps can’t sense them. And that’s not the most important part—the Demon God Temple’s people are all masters of space-time techniques, capable of leaving even if you seal the space."
"If you act against them, you won’t be able to annihilate the Demon God Temple, and instead, you will invite endless vengeance."
"The Demon God Temple doesn’t care about your status. Once you become their enemy, your only fate is destruction."
Listening to the sky-reaching elder, the Origin Sect Master felt a chill down his spine, facing the prospect of hundreds of Saint Realms.
