Above all spirits

Chapter 328 Divine Descent (Part 2)

Beside him, on either side, stood a man and a woman who were both high priests: Yun Ding of the Lightfeather Elf Royal Family and Yun Qingyou of the Dark Night Elf Royal Family. Both were pseudo-innate supreme experts and held extremely high positions within the elven royal families.

There are three high priests in the Elven royal family. These three are the ones at this moment. It is no exaggeration to say that if the three of them agree, they will have the power to decide all the major affairs of the Elven royal family.

The reason they all came out this time was not only because of the identity of the goddess Xina, but also because it was in line with the importance of the Emperor's will. If nothing had happened, they would have been too lazy to care, but now that something had happened, they had to put on a grand show, at least to show their attitude.

Therefore, Yun Wutian's words were not merely a reply to Yun Tao, who had come to report.

He even told Yun Qingyou and Yun Ding.

Yun Qingyou and Yun Ding were clearly surprised by this, with Yun Qingyou being the first to raise her doubts.

"How can it be?!"

"Do you know the identity of the intruder? Was it just one person?"

"Who are they?!"

"He actually managed to fight four people and escape, even seriously injuring one of them?!"

At least Yun Qingyou knew for sure that she wouldn't last ten rounds against that lineup.

"When did such a person appear in the Eight Realms?"

"Even if that guy from the Azure Dragon Clan came, he wouldn't be any better than this, would he?"

Although Yun Qingyou had many questions, the only reply she received was two words.

These two words are enough to explain everything.

"Demon."

All three fell silent after hearing those two words from Yun Wutian.

For a while.

Deathly silence swallowed everything.

Yun Ding spoke slowly.

"Isn't the Heavenly Demon a newly born entity? This seems rather illogical."

"Besides, how would he know about some of the internal affairs of our Elven royal family?"

Yun Wutian's emerald green eyes grew heavy as he shook his head.

"Perhaps this makes sense."

"This explains why the War God Temple and the Star Alliance on the human side have turned a blind eye to the Heavenly Demons."

"It's not that they don't want to manage it, it's just that they probably can't."

"If it were just an ordinary demon, they wouldn't care about wasting the effort of a meal to deal with it."

"But if it's about causing serious damage or even severely weakening one side, then these people won't make a move until the Heavenly Demon causes trouble. At least, that's the kind of people the Star Alliance guys are."

"As for the Temple of War... I don't know."

Yun Qingyou now somewhat agreed with Yun Wutian's guess.

"What should we do? Did Goddess Sheena give any instructions?"

Yun Wutian turned around and glanced at the World Tree, which, despite being far away, still gave people an incredibly magnificent and awe-inspiring impression, seemingly connecting the upper and lower realms, and sighed.

"Her choice was to invoke divine intervention."

Upon hearing the words "divine descent," Yun Ding's expression immediately changed drastically, because "divine descent" was practically the Elven royal family's biggest trump card, much like Earth's nuclear weapons—a card that could not be easily revealed unless in a life-or-death situation.

"Absolutely not."

"In the end, the loss of my Elf royal family so far is nothing more than the inheritance of an imperial will. It may be of great significance to the goddess Sheena, but compared with the foundation of the Elf royal family, it is not yet time to make a fatal mistake. At most, it is just a piece of flesh that is missing."

"Moreover, we can easily find out Yunyin's whereabouts through the power: Prayer to Heaven. For elves who have lived in the elven royal family for so long, this is not a difficult task."

"To kill someone through divine intervention, isn't that like using a cannon to kill a mosquito?"

"That person will probably look down on us because of this."

"Anyone with eyes can see that the goddess Hina herself..."

"And the cost of using Divine Descent..."

Yun Wutian put on an expression that said he naturally knew, but his eyes also showed hesitation and deliberation.

“I know that Divine Descent is a large-scale secret technique that combines the power of the upper realm with the soul techniques of the lower realm. Not only does it consume a lot of soul power, it will also put the World Tree into a period of recovery. During the recovery period, there will be no production of life essence or even life water.”

"This almost plunged the entire elven royal family into despair during this period."

"but."

"He is a demon."

"What Goddess Sheena said makes sense. Even that scoundrel from the Azure Dragon Clan that you mentioned, Qingyou, couldn't command the entire dragon race, could he?"

“The Demon Race is different. The Heavenly Demon has absolute power over the entire Demon Race. The power of life and death of the Demon Race is entirely in the hands of the Heavenly Demon. In other words, the will of the Heavenly Demon is almost the will of the entire Demon Race.”

"Given that the human race is currently too lazy to bother with us, and that we have incurred the wrath of the Heavenly Demons, we are letting the Heavenly Demons go back."

"Can we really bear the possible consequences?"

Yun Qingyou and Yun Ding fell silent again at this moment. Neither of them dared to vouch for it, because if something happened, it would be something they couldn't afford to bear.

"How about this."

With a flash of white light at his fingertips, Yun Wutian took out a scepter made from the trunk of a World Tree, with a huge green crystal ball-like object embedded on top of the scepter.

"Let's not go through the World Tree either; the Elven race can't afford such a loss."

“Let me use my Elf King’s scepter as a substitute. In the time of the ancient elves, this scepter was valued more than life itself, but now it is just a symbol and doesn’t have much meaning. If it’s gone, it’s gone.”

"Although the power of divine descent will be greatly reduced as a result, it's still more than enough to kill a pseudo-innate being, even a Heavenly Demon..."

"should."

Yun Wutian hesitated before adding the word "should," realizing he couldn't be so certain. At his age, he had witnessed all sorts of miracles.

"As for that one, the goddess Sheena said she would explain."

"After using the divine descent this time, regardless of the outcome, we have done everything we could, which can be considered as giving Goddess Xina an explanation."

Yun Ding and Yun Qingyou exchanged a glance and then nodded to each other.

Yun Ding chuckled helplessly.

"Wu Tian, ​​what are you saying? That one is just a demon from the lower realm. If he were to bide his time for a few more years, perhaps the divine descent in place of the scepter would be insufficient. But now, even a demon from the lower realm cannot contend with that one."

Yun Ding's words revealed his racial confidence without any apparent concern.

In his mind, that being was invincible, even in the upper realms.

"Let's not delay any longer and begin now. The three of us should have enough soul power. If not, we'll use the Soul Jar as a substitute. If the Heavenly Demon leaves this Fairy Realm, even using Divine Descent might not be enough."

Yun Wutian did not directly respond to Yun Ding's inner confidence, although he felt the same way. However, his intuition told him that this generation of Heavenly Demons seemed to be somewhat special.

I'm afraid it won't be that easy for them to fall.
