"That's basically the whole story."

Qingluan Immortal Monarch took out five pieces of Kryptonite from the Spatial Ring and placed them on the ground. The room was instantly filled with the mysterious radiance of seven colors, and strong energy ripples spread throughout the space.

Everyone in the hall looked delighted, all focusing on the five pieces of Kryptonite.

The Demon Emperor exclaimed in surprise, "So, with this Kryptonite, defeating or even killing the Demon Lord will be a breeze for us?"

Qingluan Immortal Monarch calmly replied, "If the old Clan Chief's words are true, then indeed it would be simple to kill the Demon Lord, but the actual effectiveness still needs to be verified."

The Immortal Emperor laughed heartily, "Truly, heaven has not abandoned us. At such a crucial moment, you've brought back something so important. The upcoming war will be easy then."

The Mixed Element Saint said happily, "We can take the initiative now. Aren't there five pieces of Kryptonite here? Each of us can carry one piece, then look for opportunities to provoke the Abyss Demons, luring them away from the Purple Crystal Pillar to prevent the Abyss Lord from descending. We use the Kryptonite to kill the various Demon Lords; once these Demon Lords are killed by us, the remaining demons won't be able to stop us and can be easily wiped out!"

"Though the Abyss Lord is powerful, it ultimately has no physical form. It creates Abyss Demons, driving them to find other races in the universe for itself, then devours them, absorbs their energy to grow stronger. If we wipe out all of its minions, we might thwart the Abyss Lord's plan to devour us."

"No matter how powerful it is, it can't incarnate its Primordial Spirit and personally devour this world, right? I don't think it has that ability. If it did, why would it bother creating the Demon Clan? Wouldn't it just descend and devour directly?"

Everyone nodded in agreement with the Mixed Element Saint's perspective.

Isn't it said that it's a fugitive from the Heavenly God Clan?

Maybe it's afraid of being detected by the Heavenly God Clan if it makes an appearance?

Last time, it was fortunate, taking advantage of cosmic natural disasters to escape from the Heavenly God Clan. If it gets caught by the Heavenly God Clan again, it's definitely doomed.

The Great Wilderness Saint sighed softly, "It's a pity we can't find where the Heavenly God Clan is, otherwise things might be a bit simpler."

The Demon Emperor snorted, "I'd rather never interact with them, and even hope they never find us. After all, in their eyes, not to mention the ordinary Immortal and Demon Clans, even powerful cultivators like you and me are probably no more than ants."

The Demon Emperor turned, looking disdainfully at the Great Wilderness Saint, "Do you really want to bow and scrape before people?"

The Great Wilderness Saint's eyes turned cold, snorting, without speaking.

Although Qingluan Immortal Monarch's mention of the Heavenly God Clan, the rulers of the universe, surprised everyone, it was just a fleeting shock.

The universe is infinite, with countless races. The existence of beings stronger than those in the Saint Realm is not impossible. Moreover, they themselves are saints, being saints for so long. Whether their strength can improve any further, even if they can't reach that realm, they can somewhat sense it.

Therefore, the existence of the Heavenly God Realm and the Heavenly God Clan only brought surprise, but no great shock, just merely confirming previous doubts.

They are the pinnacle existence in the Immortal and Demon Worlds, and although they certainly hope to become Heavenly God Realm, to become the strongest ruler in the universe, their long tenure as saints makes them understand that it's basically impossible.

Given that, why force it?

Anyway, since the Heavenly God Clan hides somewhere unknown and won't come to rule everyone, why seek them out? What if they get interested and want to rule the Immortal and Demon Worlds? What then?

Once saints, even rulers of the Immortal and Demon Worlds, would be forced to bow and scrape or face death?

The Immortal Emperor glanced around and laughed, "The Heavenly God Clan is too far from us to consider now. We only need to think about one thing: how to use this Kryptonite to destroy all invading Abyss Demons in the Immortal and Demon Worlds, to kill them all."

"As long as the Abyss Lord doesn't dare to descend in true form, even if he creates more Abyss Demons later, he wouldn't dare invade the Immortal and Demon Worlds again, and the Immortal and Demon Worlds can enjoy peace."

The Demon Emperor agreed, "Right, don't think too much about the Heavenly God Realm. If becoming Heavenly God is that simple, we wouldn't be stuck here. All we need to do now is kill those Abyss Demons!"

The Shadow Emperor asked, "Shall we formulate a strategy?"

The Immortal Emperor nodded, "This matter we five can discuss... Qingluan, Lin Chen, you've made great contributions this time. Is there any reward you wish for?"

Qingluan Immortal Monarch responded without hesitation, "Master, all my actions were for the obliteration of the Abyss Demons and the protection of the Immortal and Demon Worlds. Whatever gain there is, it's the grace of the Heavenly Dao. As your direct disciple, it is my duty, and I need no reward. However, without Lin Chen, this journey wouldn't have happened at all, so please reward Lin Chen heavily."

The Immortal Emperor made a sound of acknowledgment, his eyes falling on Lin Chen's face, "Lin Chen, is there anything you wish for?"

Lin Chen cursed Qingluan Immortal Monarch in his heart. You spoke so nobly, now putting me in the position to ask for a reward, to highlight your selflessness?

Lin Chen cupped his hands and replied cleanly, "I have now entered the Quasi-Saint stage. Naturally, I hope to break through and become a Saint. However, I know this is a mere dream. Besides, I'm not lacking much else, so perhaps let's just forget about the reward."

Lin Chen kicked the ball back, appearing to decline the reward on the surface, but in reality, he was telling the Saints: I'm now a Quasi-Saint, and ordinary cultivation resources and Magical Treasures are of no use to me, so don't try to brush me off with those.

I want to advance to Saint; if you want to reward me, have something substantial!

The Great Wilderness Saint smiled slightly, "No rewards for contributions would surely dishearten the troops. How the Immortal Emperor rewards you is not my concern. Personally, I will transmit to you a Magical Treasure of mine, containing my divine power techniques. In danger, you can release it. If you're lucky, it might help you avert the danger."

The means of a Saint!

Lin Chen was delighted in his heart; this was something he could indeed use!

This may be one of the few valuable things for someone like Lin Chen now.

"Thank you, Senior!"

The Great Wilderness Saint laughed lightly, his eyes sweeping over the others, "What Lin Chen did benefits not just the Great Wilderness Palace. Don't you all have something to express?"
