The ancient Di Jiang was originally very powerful, the Imperial Teacher of Great Yu survived being blown up by Immortal Eternity for ten days, simply because he diligently hid in the corners of space, sustaining only minor damage from the explosion’s residual waves.

When Fairy Eternity spoke of the ancient Di Jiang enduring ten attacks, she meant Di Jiang stood at the epicenter of the explosion and withstood ten blows directly, which is entirely different from what the Imperial Teacher of Great Yu experienced in terms of difficulty.

And could the explosive power of Immortal Eternity really be compared to that of Fairy Eternity?

Now, the ancient Di Jiang had a tendency to unite the Demon Territory and his strength had reached a new level, entering the first echelon of the Semi-Immortals, even the Immortal Lineage Second Boss was no match for him, which shows the might of the ancient Di Jiang.

...

Di Jiang Clan.

"Have all the invitations been sent out?" The ancient Di Jiang fluttered his wings slightly, emanating an ancient and mysterious aura of pressure that instilled fear in others.

In the Demon Territory, strength was revered. All those kneeling below were the strongest of their respective tribes, and he controlled these major tribes through controlling their strongest members.

If one observed carefully, they would find that these strong beings of the Demon Race had a complicated imprint in the depths of their eyes. These were master-servant imprints planted by the ancient Di Jiang.

Anyone who received this imprint must obey the ancient Di Jiang, their life and death not in their own hands.

The envoy of the Di Jiang Clan attempted to plant this master-servant imprint on the Gold Clan Leader, who could have expected that the Qiongqi Clan had profound resources and managed to shatter the token.

The nervous Clan Leader of the Di Jiang Clan looked at the Ancient Ancestor, rather unsettled, "Reporting to the great one, invitations have been issued to all major powers, except for the Four Great Devil Sects whose whereabouts are elusive and thus cannot be sent."

"The Four Great Devil Sects? Wasn’t the Eternity Sect expelled already?"

"There is another rising force called the Heavenly Court Sect, its members are all from the Ancient Heavenly Court…"

The Clan Leader of the Di Jiang Clan meticulously reported the feats of the Heavenly Court Sect, from Heavenly Venerate Dou’s emergence in Hanshui City to the Young Sect Master causing a commotion at the Seek Dao Sect celebration, each event showcasing the power of the Heavenly Court Sect.

The ancient Di Jiang scoffed, "Heavenly Court? An existence beyond comprehension. I have roamed the ancient era for tens of thousands of years and never heard of any Heavenly Court. Just like the Eternity Sect, it’s all fabrication by some."

"As for Heavenly Venerate Dou, who knows if he is just a play put on by a Great Yu Cultivator, he’s nothing to be afraid of!"

"Ancient Ancestor is wise!"

"There are also the geniuses of my Di Jiang Clan, who have been hidden for so long. It is time for the world to understand the power of my Di Jiang Clan."

A smile tugged at the corner of the ancient Di Jiang’s mouth. The geniuses of the Di Jiang Clan were cultivated by his own hand, his rightful successors, and they were absolutely powerful.

Then, he coldly looked down at the Clan Leader of the Di Jiang Clan prostrating on the ground.

"Who allowed you to speak to your ancestor? You must understand respect for hierarchy, let someone from the Transcendance Tribulation Stage speak to me."

...

"You must have all received the invitation from the ancient Di Jiang, any thoughts?"

Emperor Xia gathered the Sect Leaders of the Five Great Immortal Sects, with six invitations laid out on the table.

Qiu Jin’an shrugged, "What can you do, just go. Watching the fuss doesn’t cost a penny."

"Didn’t Yun Zhi Daoist friend tell us about this before? The discussion at that time was that if the ancient Di Jiang unified the Demon Territory, it would actually be able to restrain those Demon Race that viewed the Human Race as enemies. In the future, whether for business or exchanges between cultivators of both sides, it would be much more convenient, with more benefits than drawbacks.

Our Great Xia needn’t get involved."

"As for his appearance at this juncture, it’s surely related to the imminent Great Era. However, the ancient Di Jiang is not yet powerful enough to threaten Great Xia. We can simply be spectators."

"That’s true."

...

Golden Buddha Kingdom.

"The ancient Di Jiang wants to establish a Demon Nation?"

The ruler of the Buddha Country, with a tall figure and shiny head, half-naked upper body, was sitting on a lotus platform with a Buddha constructed of immortal gold behind him.

He looked at the invitation that had been brought over, twirled his Buddha Beads, and remained silent.

He wrote down names eligible to go on the paper, tore them into strips, crumpled them into balls, and began drawing lots.

"Forget it, just randomly choose someone to go."

...

East Sea.

The Old Dragon Emperor coiled on the stone pillar, his body nearly ten thousand meters long. The green dragon scales slightly revealed his age, and the dragon claws were covered with thick calluses, but no one dared to underestimate this old dragon; whether in the East Sea or the Demon Territory, there likely was no older being in the Demon Race today.

In his youth, he had relied on his power alone to suppress a rebellion that nearly resulted in the fragmentation of the entire East Sea during the Nine Dragons Civil War.

"It’s also been a while since I’ve had any communication with the kin in the Demon Territory. Sending a few young dragons over to catch up would be nice—it’s a good opportunity to inquire about any news of the Ancient Ancestor."

...

Jiuyou Sect.

Mu Baiyi watched the income from the barbecue restaurant with sheer joy. At this rate, he would definitely be able to pay off his loan within his lifetime, and even have the capital to build the Fengdu City well.

"All thanks to the Heavenly Court Sect."

While he was in high spirits, a piece of intelligence came from a subordinate that shook him to his core.

"The Demon Territory is establishing a Demon Nation, sending out invitations far and wide, inviting all major forces to witness it?"

"How come our Jiuyou Sect didn’t receive one? Ah right, they can’t find our location."

Such significant news had not leaked out even a bit before, how strong was Ancient Di Jiang’s ability to block intelligence?

Mu Baiyi was perplexed; according to Young Master Lu’s plan, they were supposed to focus on making money with the barbecue restaurant and not get involved in this matter.

But then again, not attending such a monumental event that would be recorded in the annals of history would feel like a loss in the future.

He pondered for a moment and then called Shi Huagu over.

"Ask Young Master Lu what the Heavenly Court Sect thinks about this?"

Shi Huagu was equally shocked when he learned of Ancient Di Jiang’s nation-building. He promptly took out the Jiuyou Token, input a lengthy message, and inquired with Young Master Lu.

Soon, Lu Yang replied, "I have always been in the Demon Territory."

Mu Baiyi and Shi Huagu gasped, puzzled as to why anyone would go to the Demon Territory without cause. It seemed Young Master Lu must have known about Ancient Di Jiang’s nation-building plans and had headed there in advance!

That’s the foundation of the Heavenly Court Sect.

...

"Junior Brother, who are you messaging?" Third Senior Sister felt that Lu Yang was writing something.

Lu Yang casually said, "Oh, it’s from the Jiuyou Sect; they were asking where I am."

"…The Jiuyou Sect?"

Third Senior Sister was silent for a while before asking in disbelief, doubting she had heard correctly for the first time.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou then laid out the entire situation of the Heavenly Court Sect, emphasizing how Eldest Senior Sister became the Sect Master, the eight Elders, and Daoist Buyu becoming Protector Heavenly Kings.

This was met with an even longer silence from Third Senior Sister.

Each generation was proving stronger than the last—her own master had never undertaken such endeavors in his youth.

Currently, the three were sitting on animal hides and had not rushed to the Di Jiang Clan. There was still a month left until the completion of the imperial palace’s construction, so there was no need to hurry.

The trio had another destination—Creation Ancient Land.

If not for the Demon Territory establishing a nation, the once-in-a-hundred-years opening of Creation Ancient Land would be the major event that captured the attention of the entire Demon Territory.

When Creation Ancient Land opened, all geniuses of the Demon Territory would participate.

Besides cultivation level restrictions, there was only one requirement for participating in Creation Ancient Land—purity of bloodline.

Coincidentally, both Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou were of the pure-blooded Human Race, fitting the criteria perfectly.
