Chapter 26: Rebellion of Demonic Beasts
Chapter 26 – Rebellion of Demonic Beasts
“Then come again.”
Xiong Wandao poured another cup for himself and Jiang Chengxuan once more.
The two of them raised their cups in a gesture.
Only this time, they didn’t finish it in one gulp, but each took a small sip.
Only after converting all the medicinal power of this spirit wine in his body into true essence did Xiong Wandao look at Jiang Chengxuan again and laugh:
“Elder Jiang, even though you and I are only meeting for the second time this time, I, Old Xiong, feel a special affinity with you.
So there are some words that I won’t hide from you.”
Jiang Chengxuan’s heart was suddenly moved, then he looked at Xiong Wandao and said:
“Brother Xiong but there’s no harm in speaking.”
“Hm?”
Hearing Jiang Chengxuan address himself, Xiong Wandao was first stunned, then he laughed and said:
“Not bad not bad, you’re a friend, my old Xiong is considered to have made it.”
Saying that, Xiong Wandao’s expression slightly corrected, then he spoke:
“Brother Jiang, now that you’ve made it this far, I think you should be very clear about what is most important in our Immortal Cultivation World, right?”
Without waiting for Jiang Chengxuan to answer, Xiong Wandao continued on his own:
“It’s not wealth, but life, only after securing one’s own life can one talk about wealth and those things.
I know, with the merit you have gained in this place, you will definitely be able to obtain a very huge reward at that time.
With those rewards, enough to let you from the Shen Clan of Immortals, exchange to many precious resources.
But you must remember, if, I mean if, Shen’s Immortal Clan side, opens up a certain type of special redemption authority to you, even if the price of that redemption is even higher, you must try to redeem enough cards to save your life from it first, okay?
Because this kind of special exchange privilege will never be available at all times.
Normally, even if you have even more spirit stones, those kinds of things, you want to go outside to buy them, there are almost no channels.
Even if there were, with the cultivation level you and I have today, would we dare to go and buy it?
So.
If you don’t have that kind of opportunity in the future, then it’s fine, but once you have it, you must definitely grasp it and never, ever miss it!
Because ……”
Speaking at this point, Xiong Wandao suddenly was taking a deep breath, before he lowered his voice and said:
“The Demon Beast Rebellion that occurs once every two hundred years is not very far away from right now, at most there are only thirty to forty years left.
At that time, Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators such as you and I will be nothing more than that slightly larger cannon fodder.
The slightest miscalculation will lead to ashes in a calamity of that magnitude.”
“Demon Beast Rebellion?”
Upon hearing this news from Xiong Wandao, Jiang Chengxuan’s pupils immediately shrank fiercely.
To be honest, he really wasn’t particularly clear about this news that Xiong Wandao was talking about now.
It was really because of the limited levels he had been exposed to in the past.
Although he had occasionally heard some news about demonic beasts rebelling, it was all fragmented and without any particularly specific concepts.
Now that he had heard news of this type of level at first glance, it was obviously unrealistic to say that his heart was not shaken at all.
As if he had already anticipated Jiang Chengxuan’s reaction, Xiong Wandao couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile and said:
“Doesn’t it feel a bit shocking?
I won’t hide it from you, when I first learned about this news specifically, my reaction was actually even worse than yours.
This is because a calamity of that scale can really be considered quite dangerous for Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators like you and me.
Not to say that nine deaths and one life is such an exaggeration, right, but a mortality rate of seventy to eighty percent, more or less, is still there.
Do you know what the strength of the Shen Clan of Immortals that you and I are from was once at its peak?”
Without waiting for Jiang Chengxuan to answer, Xiong Wandao already said to himself:
“According to what I know, when the Shen Clan was at its peak, there were as many as eight or nine Purple House Superiors within the clan.
Such as you and I such as the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, but also reached nearly a hundred.
It can be said that the Shen’s Immortal Clan at that time, has completely satisfied a Jindan Immortal Clan should have all the heritage, just missing a Jindan real person to sit in the town.
It was said that the Shen Clan Master at that time, was given the opportunity to advance to the Jindan realm.
But unfortunately, at that time, the demonic beast chaos unexpectedly broke out early, and the main battlefield was in Pingchuan County where we are now.
The Shen Clan of Immortals, as the number one Immortal Cultivation Clan in Pingchuan County at that time, naturally blocked the front line.
At that time, that battle was fought in an exceptionally tragic manner.
Already condensed pseudo-dan Shen clan master died on the spot, three Purple House realm Shen family elders were seriously injured and their paths were cut off.
The remaining four Purple Mansion realm elders died with six third-order demonic beasts.
Only one of the youngest elders who had just been promoted to the Purple Mansion realm not long ago was left in the clan to guard the clansmen, and only then was he spared.
Later on, shortly after returning to the clan, the three severely injured Violet Mansion elders eventually failed to survive and left the human world one after another.
And this, was only the casualties at the level of the Violet Mansion Elders.
As for Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators like you and me, there were even more deaths.
I’m not too sure about the exact number, but I know that ever since that time, the number of Foundation Establishment stage cultivators in the entire Shen Clan of Immortals has never exceeded ten.”
After listening to this narration from Xiong Wandao, Jiang Chengxuan’s heart instantly went half-cold.
It was impossible for him to think that the so-called Demon Beast Rebellion would be that terrifying.
Even a superior who had achieved the Purple Mansion realm could not be spared from death, so wouldn’t the probability of them, the little Qi Refining Foundation Establishment cultivators, surviving the attack be even lower?
Instinctively, Jiang Chengxuan began to consider whether he should try to leave the Shen Clan of Immortals and leave this Pingchuan County while he was still here.
But then he quickly reacted.
The so-called Demon Beast Rebellion, the scope of its repercussions was bound to be a matter for the entire Cloud Country Immortal Cultivation Realm, or even the entire Nine Yuan Realm.
Even if he left the Shen Clan of Immortals and left Pingchuan County, where could he go?
And where would be absolutely safe?
Shaking his head, Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but look at Xiong Wandao anew and couldn’t help but ask:
“Brother Xiong, since this Demon Beast Rebellion is a matter for our entire Immortal Cultivation World, then when the Shen Clan of Immortals paid so much to fend off the Demon Beasts in the first place, didn’t the side of the Qianyang Clan, which is the upper clan, have nothing to show?
No matter what, the corresponding pension and care, should always be there, right?
Otherwise, in the future, who would still be willing to be at the forefront of the demonic beast chaos with us, the Shen Clan Immortal Clan.”
Hearing this question from Jiang Chengxuan, Xiong Wandao couldn’t help but nod his head.
“There is definitely a corresponding pension and care, but that amount will never be too much.
It’s not because the Qianyang Sect, which is our upper sect, refuses to give this pension, but they really can’t afford to do so either.
As a matter of fact, not only the Qianyang Sect, but even the two remaining sects that are on par with the Qianyang Sect, the Northern Cloud Sect and the Starlight Sect, they also can’t afford to give adequate pensions.”
“Uh?”
Jiang Chengxuan was truly a bit confused this time.
“What’s going on here?”
Xiong Wandao couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh once again as he looked at Jiang Chengxuan and asked:
“Brother Jiang, do you know how much time has passed in total since there was the Demon Beast Rebellion?”
