Northern Mainland
The Demon Army had retreated due to the call from the cultivators of the Eternal Realm. Originally the demons wanted to suppress the Northern Mainland forces to the very end, but due to the Human Emperor's legacy, they were unwilling to waste time.
After all, according to the four Demon Princes, the forces of the Saint Continent would not dare to fight them anymore. Just waiting for time to clean them all up. Right now, their main purpose was the most important one, namely the Inheritance of the Human Emperor and for the Copper Mirror, they were putting it aside at the moment because they could not trace it yet.
Currently seen in the Saint Continent cultivator base very few spoke. All of them looked desperate due to the crushing defeat. It seemed like luck that the demon army retreated suddenly as if they were in a hurry to go somewhere.
“How is the condition of brother and grandfather?” The bandaged-looking Gu Yin everywhere asked in a nervous tone as he gazed towards Xiao Chen, Lin Ming, Huan Caiyi and the unconscious Gu Yuena.
“Their current condition has been stable. For your great-grandfather, Caiyi and Yuena, both of them will be around in a moment. As for your Grandfather Lin Ming..” Lin Xi let out a long sigh as she stopped her words. Although she was convinced that her husband would not die, it only took a very long time to wake up. The wound was too severe, if only he did not have the fruit of the Tree of Life, perhaps he would not be able to save Lin Ming's life.
His heart, lungs, all his bones have been destroyed. His stomach was also pierced by some sharp objects. Although there was a heaven-defying object that Jie Yan had given him, still it would not be able to recover in its entirety especially the heart and lungs.
Even so, the effect given was quite good and Lin Ming's internal injuries recovered slowly even though it took a long time. This was also the efficacy of the medicines that he concocted himself.
Gu Yin's eyes glazed over when he saw Lin Ming's condition. She immediately remembered about her husband and she could only pray that Jie Yan would not meet those demons because she knew that the Copper Mirror sought by the demons was held by Jie Yan from the words of Xiao Chen.
But it's also luck. If only the Copper Mirror was on Xiao Chen, the goal of the demons would have been achieved first.
“I did not expect that the old ancestor would be cornered to this extent.” Yao Shen said in a complicated tone as he stared towards Xiao Chen.
“If you were in his position, would you be able to last a few hours against one Demon Prince who was aided by over 50,000 demons alone?” Zhu Feng asked with an annoyed face towards Yao Shen.
Thinking of that, Yao Shen shuddered involuntarily as he only definitely lasted for less than ten minutes. This proved that the difference in strength that a Patriarch had with Xiao Chen was like heaven and earth.
“Yin’er, take a break for a moment. Recover your wounds.” said Lin Xi staring towards Gu Yin.
Gu Yin wanted to refuse but eventually he did not speak and tried to rest right next to Huan Caiyi lying down. He is very tired at the moment. It is still a miracle that he did not fall on the battlefield against hundreds of thousands of demons with just 20,000 soldiers who were not even considered as elites.
“Xuanyin, Xuan Xian, you two go scout the border. Only you and a few Dragon Elders can guard the outside at this time.” Lin Xi said without looking at the two in a bitter tone.
The exhausted Mu Xuanyin and Mu Xuan Xian could only nod then go towards the direction where the previous war had taken place to see if any enemies had come or not.
“Lin Huang, Yao Shen, Zhu Feng, the three of you collect as many medicines as you can because I'm almost out of ingredients. You guys know where to look. Check all the victim's room rings. It's the only way.” Lin Xi's orders. Such a thing did stain the war hero but they could not do anything because if there were no medicines, the injuries of all the troops would not recover.
“Ya.” Lin Huang, Yao Shen and Zhu Feng replied then immediately went to do the task.
Lin Xi let out a long breath once again. He was currently worried about his granddaughter as well for carrying the Copper Mirror. But from the words of Xiao Ziya and Xia Yue'er, Jie Yan would not be found for now.

Saint Mountain
Saint Mountain was located in the center of the Saint Continent. There were currently a large number of troops around Saint Mountain. If calculated, their number reaches more than 200,000.
Even after all the wars that occurred, the demon army was still left over 100,000. As for cultivators from the Eternal Realm, it was also the same because in the end, a new army was sent to the Saint Continent and it was the last army sent by the Wang Clan due to the sheer amount of cost that had to be used.
“How long has this seal been opened?” Chu Huanxian asked impatiently staring towards the five cultivators leaders of the Eternal Realm.
“Patience demon! Do you think the seal left behind by the Human Emperor could be opened so easily? This seal had existed for a very long time but was still very powerful after a long time had passed. If you can't wait, go!” wang Lee said coldly.
Chu Huanxian's aura surged as she wanted to kill Wang Lee but kept her from being stopped by Jin Gu.
“Say the specifications.” said Jin Gu.
“Less than 5 hours! With the help of the tools sent by Clan Patriarch Wang, everything is within the grasp of.” Wang Lee said.
The four Devils instantly silently heard him. But there was a certain glint in their eyes as they gazed towards the peak that was covered by fog. With just that seal alone, they were sure that whatever was there was definitely comparable to the Copper Mirror.
To the five cultivators leaders of the Eternal Realm, they only scoffed with disdain to the demons because when the time came, they would clear up the demons as well because naturally they had evil techniques, they had evil techniques, they turn their army into bombs.
The calculation of the technique is of course one to two. With just one human slave being made into a bomb with a seal formation, it could kill two to three demons of the same level. It was certain that they were confident that they would win against the demons.
To the Demon Princes, they were also scornful as they naturally had trump cards and felt that victory was also in their hands.

Western Mainland
Jie Yan who had been cultivating for less than two days was awakened. He smiled slightly as he felt that his current strength was like a bottomless abyss. But he did not know that in less than two days, the human army of the Saint Continent could be considered defeated.
Without wasting any time, Jie Yan immediately stood up and walked out of the palace. When he came out of the palace, he inhaled a deep breath as he muttered, “Saying grandfather Xiao Chen, I have to go to the Northern Mainland to use the teleportation gate.”
Jie Yan immediately flicked his arm and the space ripped apart instantly. Due to the increase in his strength, he was increasingly adept at tearing apart space in the mortal realm. Of course the current goal is the Northern Mainland.
Although Jie Yan seemed calm, he always felt a bad premonition so he hurriedly finished his cultivation.
Northern Mainland
The space that Jie Yan had torn apart appeared in the fog of the road towards the Northern Mainland. It only took him less than an hour to move through the Spatial Hole.
When it came out, Jie Yan's face wrinkled and his eyes shrank sharply as he could sense that there were fewer Cultivators than he had imagined. He rushed to the place with a cold face because he felt that bad feeling was reality.
As Jie Yan continued flying at his full speed, two figures suddenly appeared in front of him which made him stop.
“Jie.. Yan?” Mu Xuanyin was shocked when she saw Jie Yan. He was initially gloomy as an immense force approached and did not expect that it was the husband of his disciple.
“Senior? How is he doing?” Jie Yan asked grimly while still staring at the enormous amount of demonic corpses all over the place.
“Close with us. The human army has been defeated. Right now the order from senior Lin Xi is to survive, not to fight.” Mu Xuanyin said as she turned around then flew with Mu Xuan Xian towards where their base was.
Hearing that, Jie Yan's eyes widened. Counting back all the human troops, he did not expect that in just less than 1 month, the human he the world was on the verge of extinction.
