Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme

Chapter 1047: Chapter 639: Inside Story_2

"Because the Demon Nation Abyss also has extraordinary potential, if suppressed forcefully, it would lead to destruction for both the innocent and the guilty."

"Therefore, Father Emperor did not hurry to take action but planned to first enter the Earth Immortal Realm and afterwards, with the momentum of Mount Tai pressing down an egg, subdue the Demon Nation Abyss and stabilize the Immortal Realm."

"Unexpectedly..."

The Jade Emperor paused, his gaze growing intense, "70,000 years ago, when the Heavenly Secret Realm reopened, the Father Emperor hurried back to the Heavenly Court, convened me and the four Emperors, and told us that the demons had ambushed him in the Heavenly Secret Realm, inflicting him with deep-seated Demon Poison, leaving him unable to control himself and necessitating immediate isolation to purge the demonic disaster within him."

"Subsequently, he passed the position of Heavenly Court Emperor to me and secluded himself in the Taihuang Emperor's Palace with the Mystic Yellow Tower sealing himself, also adding Nine Ancient Immortal Locks and the Yin Yang Two Extremes, Nine Palace Eight Trigrams Two Formations."

"Before his seclusion, he instructed me, unless our successors achieved the Fruit of Earth Immortal, we must never unseal him, and he admonished several Emperors that should any Evil Demon arise, they must decisively act, strike them with thunder, and not hesitate for a moment."

"Since then, he has been sealed here, with no signs for tens of thousands of years, until today's incident occurred."

The Jade Emperor spoke gravely, clearly setting out the cause and consequences.

Xu Yang's eyebrows furrowed deeply, even more suspicious, "Was it really the work of demons?"

"Exactly!"

The Jade Emperor nodded, his expression bitter and full of regret, "Back then, the Father Emperor's influence was so vast, he suppressed the Demon Nation Abyss to the point they couldn't raise their heads, and he was close to progressing to an Earth Immortal, knowing that once the Father Emperor achieved the Fruit of Earth Immortal, he would scour the Court and sweep the Den, suppressing the demons, so they took a desperate gamble and ambushed Father Emperor in the Heavenly Secret Realm..."

"We also had not anticipated that the demons would still have such means, even managing to ambush an Emperor Venerable."

The Emperor of the North Pole also spoke, "Back then, the demons had reached a dead end, and the Emperor Venerable, to prevent them from a fight to the death, entered the Heavenly Secret Realm alone to seek advancement, leaving us four and two from Buddhism to suppress the situation outside. However, this incident still occurred, and we were unable to assist. We don't even know by what means the demons ambushed the Emperor Venerable, even he himself was vague and didn't explain clearly."

"Vague?"
