Chapter 1276: Transmission of the Dharma

The Mortal World

Soon, the Alliance of Two Realms sent word, requesting the grandmasters of all sects to promptly lead their forces to Skywalk Plateau to organize a counterattack.

Qing Jun was reorganizing the forces under his command. For this decisive battle, both realms would mobilize their entire strength, with grand armies marching towards Skywalk Plateau.

Meanwhile, Qin Sang took Jing Yu and first headed to Thousand Mountains Bamboo Sea.

Thousand Mountains Bamboo Sea.

Having received the news, the demons were waiting outside the valley.

The white cat learned that its master would bring a Demon King back to the mountain. It stood meticulously beside the Willow Demon, its round face tense and almond eyes wide open, for fear of being disrespectful in front of the Demon King.

The fat chicken eyed the white crane beside it disdainfully. Its eyes burned with fury, and it cursed inwardly.

The white crane was deliberately being affectionate with Yue'er right in front of the fat chicken, displaying sweet intimacy.

The white crane cackled loudly. Casually, it sauntered over to the fat chicken, extended a wing, and wrapped it around the fat chicken, its face full of envy as it brazenly declared, "I didn't expect you, fat chicken, to be telling the truth! You're really the descendant of a Demon King! You've struck it rich! Don't forget your old pal later on! I'll have Yue'er lure her sisters over; you can pick whomever you like! Three wives and four concubines will be nothing!"

"My name is Chi Lei!"

The fat chicken was furious.

Yue'er, with a hint of jealousy on her face, pinched the white crane and, with a soft voice, asked, "Do you also want three wives and four concubines?"

"My heart for you is true, Heaven and Earth can attest!" the white crane said without batting an eye. "How could my eyes tolerate other little demonesses?"

Yue'er's face was filled with shy sweetness.

The white crane sighed inwardly. There was nothing to be done. She had the protection of a Snake King, and even its own master didn't know how to favor it. It truly couldn't be beaten or scolded.

Fortunately, its nature was cunning, and it flattered Yue'er so much that she felt like she was bathed in honey. It hadn't suffered much; on the contrary, it enjoyed all her tenderness.

The only downside was that Yue'er was very clingy, preventing it from going out and enjoying itself freely, which was truly a bit stifling.

The fat chicken, knowing the white crane's nature well, scoffed, "Keep them for yourself. I'm not blessed enough to enjoy such things."

Just as they were talking, Qin Sang and Jing Yu quietly appeared before them.

Jing Yu, having overheard the white crane's words, was very interested. "If you know any well-behaved young women of good nature, you can invite them to try. If you can find a suitable partner for Little Fatty, this King will thank you properly."

The fat chicken turned pale with shock.

Inside the cave dwelling.

Qin Sang introduced Jing Yu to the demons, explaining that from now on, Jing Yu would stay in Thousand Mountains Bamboo Sea to cultivate.

Jing Yu agreed that if she had leisure, she would not hesitate to offer guidance, and all the demons were overjoyed.

After the demons had met Jing Yu, Qin Sang kept the Willow Demon, Old Macaque, the white cat, the fat chicken, and the white crane, then took out several jade slips.

"First, take a look at this cultivation method," Qin Sang said, handing one of them to Jing Yu.

The jade slip contained precisely the first four layers of the *Heavenly Demon Refinement Technique*.

After the counterattack on Sinner's Abyss, everything would fall into place. These few demons could be trusted, so Qin Sang chose them to transmit the *Heavenly Demon Refinement Technique* to, ensuring its legacy within the demon race and preventing it from being lost with him.

The Willow Demon, being a plant transformation, could not cultivate the *Heavenly Demon Refinement Technique*, but could still gain some insight from it.

Upon receiving the *Heavenly Demon Refinement Technique*, the demons were instantly filled with shock and were all immersed in it, unable to extricate themselves.

Jing Yu was the first to awaken, her eyes unable to conceal her surprise. "This kind of cultivation method must have been a true legacy of a great clan in ancient times. Fellow Daoist actually obtained the complete first four layers! Unfortunately, I am already too deeply steeped in my own clan's inheritance to switch to this method. However, the *Heavenly Demon Refinement Technique* will also be greatly beneficial to me. After studying it for a while, I will definitely gain something. Thank you, Fellow Daoist Qin!"

"So, the top inheritances of the demon race are also incomplete?" Qin Sang asked in return.

Jing Yu nodded. "Mostly so. My clan's inheritance came from an exceptionally brilliant ancestor who gained insight from a fragmented ancient demon cultivation method. It was then passed down through generations, gradually becoming complete."

The demon race in the Small Cold Region was also like this; the top inheritances of the human, shaman, and demon races were all incomplete.

Qin Sang pondered.

After a while, the demons finally came to their senses. They were immensely grateful to Qin Sang, bowing in unison and proclaiming, "Thank you, Great King, for the gift of this cultivation method."

"Rise," Qin Sang said, waving his sleeve. "From now on, Thousand Mountains Bamboo Sea and Azure Goat Temple are both my juniors, with no distinction between them. Among yourselves, remember not to harbor prejudices against other races. Otherwise, if trouble arises, I will not be lenient!" Qin Sang waved his sleeve and said solemnly, "Cultivation methods cannot be easily transmitted. Thousand Mountains Bamboo Sea must establish a few rules..."

That night, Qin Sang led the demons to Skywalk Plateau.

Jing Yu remained in Thousand Mountains Bamboo Sea for closed-door cultivation. However, during this period, she needed to comprehend the cultivation method and was not in a hurry to take medicine to break through. She could provide reinforcement at any time after the war began.

Skywalk Plateau, Ice Crystal Palace.

The Nascent Souls were gathered together.

The moment Qin Sang walked into the main hall, glances from all directions simultaneously turned to him.

"Fellow Daoist Qin has finally arrived!"

Daoist Master Zhenyi personally rose to greet him, his eyes gleaming with admiration as he repeatedly praised, "This humble Daoist has always envied the demon race for producing Demon King Bright Moon. Only now do I realize that it is our human race's young talent!"

Qin Sang repeatedly expressed his humility and cupped his hands in greeting to the gathered Nascent Souls.

Everyone returned the greeting, marking their true introduction.

His seat was arranged next to Qing Jun.

Qin Sang's gaze swept around, and he noticed that everyone was seated haphazardly. He guessed that Old Daoist Zhenyi was somewhat caught off guard by his and Qing Jun's sudden rise. Fearing potential trouble, he simply disregarded seating arrangements.

This greatly disappointed some busybodies.

They were very interested in the grievances between Qin Sang and Earl Dongyang. Unfortunately, both of them were cunning and showed no emotion. If they had torn off their masks and fought over seating arrangements, it would have been a good show.

Once everyone had arrived, Daoist Master Zhenyi sealed the Ice Crystal Palace's restrictions. His expression grew serious as he began discussing official matters.

"Old Demon Ye and Old Ghost Tianzheng have been severely wounded," he began. "And we have two strong reinforcements in Fellow Daoist Leng and Fellow Daoist Qin. This is the best time for a counterattack. According to my and Fellow Daoist Tongyou's investigation, Sinner's Abyss is already gathering its forces, showing signs of retreat. We absolutely cannot let them withdraw so easily! Once the grand army is assembled, it will be divided into three routes. This humble Daoist and Brother Jinjia will command one route, Fellow Daoist Tongyou and Fellow Daoist Dongyang will command another, and Fellow Daoist Leng and Fellow Daoist Qin will command the third route..."

The counterattack plan had already been agreed upon by all parties, so there was no need for further discussion. Daoist Master Zhenyi directly made the arrangements.

The commanders of the three routes all possessed peak strength in both realms, and no one questioned their appointments.

"This humble Daoist has already contacted our fellow Daoists in the desert," he continued. "At that time, they will also strike with full force to pin down a portion of Sinner's Abyss's forces. The three routes of the grand army will launch a simultaneous attack, driving Sinner's Abyss back to the Celestial Scar in one fell swoop! Fellow Daoist Scarlet Hair was ambushed by Old Demon Ye, suffered severe injuries, and perished in the celestial tribulation. In this decisive battle, we will surely avenge him and make Sinner's Abyss pay a bloody price!"

Old Daoist Zhenyi slammed the table and shouted loudly.

The expressions of the Nascent Souls were invigorated. After being suppressed by Sinner's Abyss for so many years, they could finally fight back and relieve the pent-up frustration in their hearts.

When Old Daoist Zhenyi mentioned Old Ancestor Scarlet Hair, two Nascent Souls in the hall, one male and one female, exchanged glances. Both let out a cold snort, their faces showing disgust.

They were precisely Old Ancestor Scarlet Hair's two disciples.

After Old Ancestor Scarlet Hair's demise, the two became estranged, leading to the split of Pure Yang Sect, the largest sect in the Small Cold Region. Every time they met, it was like this, viewing each other as enemies.

At this moment, someone noticed that Daoist Master Zhenyi had not mentioned the demon race.

"Daoist Master, have you contacted Demon King Yu? What are Heavenly Demon Mound's plans?"
