第两千零三十章 冰魄的丫鬟

Looking around, one could see a group of ancient demons patrolling. In the center was a structure resembling an altar.

However, compared to ordinary altars, this building was incomprehensibly large—over a hundred feet tall—and surrounded by thousands of stone pillars of varying sizes, all emitting a dark luster.

From afar, it appeared mysterious and ancient, as if forming some kind of eerie magical array.

At the base of the altar stood a grand hall. The style was rough and ancient, and inside were gathered about a dozen ancient demons.

The number of people seemed not too many.

Among these ancient demons, none were below the Reunion Realm. Their appearances varied greatly; some looked like human cultivators, while others were even uglier and more vicious than the evil ghosts from the Netherworld.

Yet at this moment, these warlike and fierce ancient demons all showed signs of panic on their faces.

"Friend Mephisto, is the intelligence correct? The elite forces of our clan that surrounded Cloud State's three major sects have been completely wiped out. How could this be possible?" A deep voice echoed, coming from a stone giant with a face chiseled like a rock, full of disbelief.

"Yes, each of the three armies had tens of thousands of Holy Clan members, not to mention the魔兽 and those corrupted cultivators. Although the three major sects in Cloud State are quite powerful, they absolutely cannot withstand our numerous elite forces from the Holy Realm. The idea that all were wiped out is as absurd as a fairy tale," another demon with a green face and fangs spoke similarly.

"Ah, if these two friends say so, do you think this palace is lying?" A displeased voice sounded, but it was filled with allure, captivating one's heart.

A Mephisto, as its name suggests, could most easily sway minds. This was part of its innate secret technique, far more powerful than similar techniques practiced by human female cultivators.

Once trapped in their trap, they could be killed without a trace.

From the surface, this Mephisto seemed no different from a human female cultivator—wearing purple robes, with an extremely alluring figure and not particularly beautiful features. However, just looking at her, one felt an endless charm.

Despite appearing frail, the stone giant and green-faced ancient demons seemed to be slightly afraid. They hurriedly smiled as they spoke: "Friend Mephisto, don't get angry. We wouldn't doubt your word. The key is that no matter how we analyze this matter, it's too unbelievable. How could the three sects in Cloud State have such power?"

"Indeed, according to common sense, there's nothing wrong with that. But if a Transcendence Realm cultivator appeared…," Mephisto's cold voice echoed, still filled with allure.

"A Transcendence Realm cultivator is impossible. This is the human world; how could such an existence appear? A Transcendence Realm cultivator should have long ascended to the Spirit Realm and wouldn't stay here," a demon with the head of a man and body of a horse interjected, his frown deepening as he continued: "Could it be that they came from the Spirit Realm."

"Friend, you jest. The Spirit Realm is also an upper-level plane; millions of years ago, the laws of nature had already changed. The difficulty to break through the void and come here is no less than ours coming from the Holy Realm. A Transcendence Realm existence…,"

"Enough! You all stop arguing. Mephisto's words are correct. I have verified her intelligence; Ironwing, Bloodsucker, and Twinhead demons indeed suffered a complete defeat, with not even one survivor." A cold voice sounded from the highest seat. It was an ancient demon.

She looked no different from a human maiden, barely seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in a strange manner that resembled a servant girl of a wealthy family. Her appearance wasn't particularly beautiful; she just had a refined and pretty look.

As for her cultivation level, she had only just entered the Reunion Realm, not standing out among the dozen ancient demons here. In fact, she could be considered at the bottom. After all, there were three later-stage Reunion Realm ancient demons in this hall.

However, her identity seemed significant. When she spoke, those ancient demons immediately fell silent and stood respectfully. These usually rebellious creatures now showed extremely humble expressions.

But their shocked faces couldn't be hidden. The shock of no survivors was greater than the loss of a hundred thousand Holy Clan elite forces.

"How could this be possible? With so many Holy Clan members, even if a Transcendence Realm cultivator appeared, they wouldn't all be wiped out in one strike."

However, these ancient demons only muttered to themselves. They dared to question Mephisto but would never offend the maiden sitting on the highest seat.

Although her cultivation level was just entering the Reunion Realm, she had a surprisingly significant background—she was the attendant of Ice Soul Demon Ancestor.

Even if not an intimate one, she was still a lowly servant. What did it matter? As they say, even a prime minister's door has officials of seventh rank. This saying held true in the cultivation world; even as a mere servant, she was still the attendant of Ice Soul Demon Ancestor—something these Reunion Realm ancient demons couldn't afford to offend.

"I don't know the exact situation, but the opponent shouldn't be an ordinary Transcendence Realm cultivator," the maiden said slowly.

The other ancient demons looked at each other in confusion. After a moment, Mephisto resumed speaking: "Lady Qiao Yun, what should we do? Although losing over a hundred thousand Holy Clan elite forces isn't much, a Transcendence Realm cultivator is beyond our capabilities. With such an existence here, it will be difficult for us to conquer the Twelve States of Heaven and Cloud."

"Yes!"

The other ancient demons echoed in agreement. They all knew how terrifying a Transcendence Realm existence was; they couldn't handle it. Just thinking about facing such an entity made their hearts tremble.

Ancient demons were indeed warlike, but that depended on their opponent. After all, they weren't fools; who would willingly sacrifice themselves?

"Hmph, don't panic. A Transcendence Realm cultivator? My miss will naturally deal with them. When the time comes, it won't be any different from clay figures and paper dolls. Can they overturn heaven?" The maiden seemed extremely calm, her voice filled with disdain.

"What?"

The demons below were shocked, their faces showing a mix of surprise and joy.

"Lady Qiao Yun, what did you say? Will Ice Soul Holy Ancestor descend to this realm?"

"Hmph, given my miss's status, it's impossible for the main body to come here. After all, how could she trouble herself with such a lowly human world? As one of the nine True Demon Primordial Ancestors, if she breaks through the laws of nature and forcefully descends here, the old monsters in the Spirit Realm and Netherworld will surely suspect something and interfere. This would be extremely detrimental to our mission,"!~!
