Chapter 1079: A Big Fortune Is Made (2/2)

Meanwhile, the Sixth Demon Realm’s foundation was still intact. After hundreds of thousands of years, brand new high-tier Demon clans would emerge from the endless evolution of low-tier Demons and demonic insects.

What made Cardy’s heart ache was the theft of that magical stone. He hadn’t even been sure that stone existed.

He had only heard rumors about it. Elder members of his clan had said that as long as the stone remained in the Sixth Demon Realm, even though that grand monarch had passed away long ago, there was still a chance that the Sixth Demon Realm would produce another tenth grade grand monarch.

It might take a few hundred thousand years, a few million years, or even more, but there would be hope, as long as that stone was there.

But now, some human had simply taken it away, along with its wonders that had made a grand monarch.

“The Domain of the Falling Stars... A recently-acknowledged Son of the Stars of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace seems to be from there. His name is Nie Tian...” Cardy thought to himself. “The Astarte Clan have invaded the Domain of the Falling Stars on a regular basis for many years. The humans there must be very weak. They must have relied on the strength of a Son of the Stars to sack the Sixth Demon Realm. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have succeeded.

“It must be that Nie Tian, the seventh Son of the Stars, whose information the Phantasms have been keen on gathering lately!”

...

In the Realm of Flame Heaven.

Nie Tian and Dong Li flew out of the spatial rift under Zhao Shanling’s guidance, and immediately saw a large number of powerful experts gathering nearby.

All of the Saint domain experts, including Jing Feiyang, Qu Mingde, Quan Zixuan, were there, along with Pei Qiqi and Qi Lianshan.

Jing Feiyang couldn’t mask his relief and delight upon seeing him. With a smile, he said, “You’re finally back. We’ve hit gold this time with our trips to those Demon realms!”

“Is everyone okay?” Nie Tian asked.

Jing Feiyang pointed at Quan Zixuan and said, “Only he suffered some minor injuries, and lost a few disciples of the Thousandsword Mountain Sect. He and his men ran into a Demon grand patriarch in the Fifth Demon Realm. Luckily, that grand patriarch was only at the early ninth grade. He and Elder Qi joined up and killed that grand patriarch together, but that grand patriarch’s one last strike before death inflicted some damage on his domain.”

Quan Zixuan snorted. “It’s nothing serious. A few months’ secluded cultivation will fix everything.”

“How come there was a ninth grade grand patriarch in the Fifth Demon Realm?” Nie Tian asked curiously.

“That grand patriarch was from the Fifth Demon Realm, and had only recently entered the ninth grade,” Qi Lianshan explained. “He had only returned to the Fifth Demon Realm to move his entire clan to the Third Demon Realm.”

Everyone was in a good mood and high spirits as they told Nie Tian how many useful spiritual materials and demonic grass they had brought back from the three Demon realms.

At this moment, Pei Qiqi suddenly popped a question. “Nie Tian, do you still want to keep the spatial rifts in the Realm of Flame Heaven, the Realm of Mystic Heaven and the Realm of a Thousand Devastations?”

Upon hearing her words, everyone fell silent and fixed their eyes on Nie Tian.

Nie Tian looked back at her with a puzzled look in his eyes.

“These three spatial rifts are suppressed by a strong force left by the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, making them only accessible from our side,” Pei Qiqi explained. “However, once tears appear in them, Demons will be able to invade through them. This operation of ours must have alarmed the powerful Demon clans. They’ll definitely think of every possible way to find out how we entered those Demon realms.

“Eventually, they’ll find and destroy those secret passages.

“So I don’t think we’ll be able to enter those three Demon realms again the way we did this time.

“However, these three spatial rifts will always be potential problems if we don’t destroy them. The way I see it, any peak ninth grade Demon grand patriarch or tenth grade grand monarch will be able to break the force suppressing them.

“I didn’t have what it takes to destroy those spatial rifts before, but I do now.”

Qi Lianshan from the Void Spirit Society chimed in in a low voice, “That’s a valid point. No teleportation portal or spatial rift is completely safe. Only by destroying them can we make sure that no one will be able to come through them again.”

“The decision is yours,” Pei Qiqi said, looking at Nie Tian.

“I suggest that we destroy them,” Jing Feiyang said.

All of the other experts nodded in agreement, knowing that what they had done in the three Demon realms would anger the Demon race, and might provoke retaliation from peak ninth grade or even tenth grade Demon experts.

Nie Tian pondered for a while, then nodded. “Alright, destroy them.”
