NOVEL NEXT Chapter 727: Attack the Five Saints Demon Nation Now
Qian Yuan Imperial Dynasty, Imperial Palace.
Within a side hall.
Shen Mo and Murong Yue spent an intimate night together.
Murong Yue spoke at great length.
All about what happened in Gu Zhou Heaven and Earth.
From Shen Mo's unexpected disappearance, to Murong Yue taking over the Jade Cauldron Sect, to the Jade Cauldron Sect quelling rebellions from other sects...
And so much more, too numerous to list.
Shen Mo also told Murong Yue about his experiences in Saint Xuan Heaven and Earth.
The Tiannan Archipelago, Cangqing Cave Dwelling, East State Heaven and Earth, Vast Mountain Range, ascending to Supreme, West Sinking Sea Region...
Murong Yue listened with bated breath.
Her heart constantly rising and falling.
Extremely tense.
Shen Mo gently pinched Murong Yue's delicate nose, "Never apart again."
Murong Yue nodded solemnly, "Good, never apart again."
...
Shen Mo rested for only three days.
Then summoned all Supremes together.
"Little friend Shen Mo, the Demon Race's offensive has temporarily eased. Residual demonic disasters still plague various regions. This is the time to recuperate. Why summon us now?"
Lei Dao Heng looked puzzled.
He had absolute faith in Shen Mo's strength.
And trusted Shen Mo's character.
That's why he crossed the void to come.
As for the other Supremes, those who valued Shen Mo and wished to befriend him came in person.
Others sent only projections—merely voice-transmitting and image-transmitting jade pieces arrived.
Shen Mo said seriously, "The Demon Race's offensive easing is merely an illusion."
"Whether the Kuang Tribe Demon Race's assault was thwarted or not is inconsequential."
"They are not the main thrust."
Hearing this, Lei Dao Heng, Ao Tian, Xiang Gu, Hu Qing and the other Supremes all looked stunned.
The Kuang Tribe Demon Race, three Demon Supremes, hundreds of thousands of demons—this wasn't the main attack?
They had already inflicted such terrifying devastation upon the Qian Yuan Imperial Dynasty.
And this wasn't the main thrust?
Shen Mo surveyed the room, "The Demon Race's target has always been the Saint Realm!"
"They intend to slay Saints!"
All Supremes frowned.
Slay Saints?
This branch of the Demon Race in Saint Xuan Heaven and Earth was a massive force.
Formidable strength, abundant cannon fodder, and each tribe enshrined a Grand Dao Saint Artifact.
This was true.
But the Saint Realm was incredibly powerful. Every gesture controlled the principles of heaven and earth.
Moreover, they roamed the myriad worlds, their whereabouts unknown.
How could the Demon Race slay Saints?
Shangguan Yun, Supreme of Reincarnation Holy Land, scratched his head, "Little friend Shen Mo, how do you know this?"
Shen Mo said calmly, "I possess a unique precognitive ability."
"This time, the Saint Xuan Demon Race has targeted Fu Zu, the Saint Realm ancestor of the Heavenly Talisman Law Sect, and the Nine Yin Saint, ancestor of the Xuan Yin Cave Heaven."
"These two went out seeking a method to permanently eradicate the Demon Race and fell into a trap laid by a Demon Saint."
"The Saint Xuan Demon Race's offensive is merely to divert our attention, making us overlook these two Saint Realm ancestors being trapped."
Shen Mo continued, "In truth, the Demon Saint of Saint Xuan should be carrying a Grand Dao Saint Artifact, preparing to slay the Saints."
The Supreme of Cold Calamity Holy Land suddenly said, "I actually know of this. Just a few days ago, there were unusual fluctuations above the Kuang Tribe Demon Race, as if some powerful force had been extracted."
Ao Tian, Lord of the West Sinking Sea, also said solemnly, "Above the You Tribe Demon Race, power also vanished. Very likely a Grand Dao Saint Artifact was taken away."
Hearing this, all Supremes present fell silent.
It was just as Shen Mo had predicted.
The Demon Race had taken away at least two Grand Dao Saint Artifacts.
Without complete preparation, they would never have dared move two Grand Dao Saint Artifacts.
This was undoubtedly leaving their base wide open.
If discovered by the Three Great Clans, one misstep would lead to endless disaster.
"We won't rescue those two ancestors."
"Instead, we will seize this moment to launch a surprise attack on the Five Saints Demon Nation!"
Shen Mo spread open a map, his finger landing on the northernmost point of Saint Xuan.
Shen Mo returned to Murong Yue's side.
He looked at Murong Yue, yet seemed to gaze at someone within her.
Murong Yue felt a chill, "Mo'er, what are you looking at?"
Shen Mo laughed heartily, "I have a question. When we shared cloud and rain, did Senior Divine Phoenix also watch?"
Murong Yue gasped in surprise, "How did you know a fragment of Senior Divine Phoenix's soul resides within me?"
Shen Mo smiled without answering.
The remnant soul had once transmitted the Crying Heaven Divine Phoenix True Canon to Murong Yue.
Combined with the Demon Saint Divine Phoenix's mastery over soul division,
he had deduced that the being residing in Murong Yue's mind, constantly aiding her, was none other than a fragment of the Divine Phoenix's soul.
"Hmph, young one, you are indeed clever."
A clear, cold voice suddenly sounded from within Murong Yue.
Shen Mo cupped his hands in salute, "This junior, Shen Mo, greets Senior Divine Phoenix."
As a Demon Saint, he naturally showed respect to this senior.
"You two juniors shared cloud and rain. Why would this Saint peep?"
"You usually play dumb. Why reveal it today?"
The Divine Phoenix snorted coldly.
Shen Mo chuckled lightly, "May I ask, Senior Divine Phoenix, if you could return to Saint Xuan Heaven and Earth?"
