Chapter 627 A New Homeland For Humanity
The Demonic Outer World now had a new supreme leader and that was the Abyssal Null Goddess. All the demonic clans were fully united in this.
Because none of the demonic cultivators were willing to fight against 13 immortals and especially when they had learnt that the Abyssal Null Goddess had a lofty status in the Demonic Divine Realm.
For those demonic clans that did not send any representative, they were beaten into submission by the powerful demonic clans that hailed the Abyssal Null Goddess as supreme leader; it was because the demonic clans that had submitted to the Abyssal Null Goddess were all the powerful demonic clans.
Now the Minor Dark Phantom Citadel was even more renowned than the Major Dark Phantom Citadel and that was because that was where the Abyssal Null Goddess had her residence.
And the Succubus Queen Minami was naturally held in a high esteem now as she was now known as the demonic servant that was nearest to the Abyssal Null Goddess. Naturally her words were now law.
Tens of thousands of the demonic cultivators were now at the Minor Dark Phantom Citadel to pay their humble respect to the Abyssal Null Goddess and the 12 Immortals.
As for Ji Yuan, he was now renowned as the Sword Demon God Ji Yuan as he had not only defeated the top 5 demonic cultivators but he had also killed numerous demonic cultivators with his sword arts.
There was no doubt that Ji Yuan was an extreme sword cultivator in the Demonic Divine Realm and no one had the intention to fight with either Ji Yuan or Bai Qianfeng.
Also, Ji Yuan’s companions were not weak and there were even 3 Sword Immortals among them and they were the White Sword Monarch, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Ling Feiyue.
Behind the close door of the Minor Dark Phantom Citadel, there were 2 powerful demonic immortals that did not share the same origin with the desolate immortals and they were heard expressing their unhappiness to the Abyssal Null Goddess in her throne room.
In this close door was Ji Yuan, the short old man the White Sword Monarch, Ling Feiyue, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress, the 13 Immortals and the last was naturally Bai Qianfeng the Abyssal Null Goddess.
One of them said, “We are unlike you. We do not hail from the Immortal Divine Realm. Instead we are from this divine realm before we ascended and we belong to the Death God Mingwang faction. Do you think that we will submit to this callous rule of yours?”
Another one said coldly, “Even though the Death God Mingwang is absent from our Desolate Divine Realm for the past thousands of years, his position is firmly in our hearts. One day our Death God Mingwang will surely return to teach you Desolate Immortals a lesson or two!”
Little Doggie the Immortal shouted at the two demonic immortals, “How dare you be rude to our Great Abyssal Null Goddess…”
The Abyssal Null Goddess interrupted as she smiled coldly, “Then all the more you should bow before me. That is because I am the direct protégé of your Death God Mingwang. Not only me…”
She then pointed to the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress. “They are also the direct protégés of your Death God Mingwang. And what are the two of you? You are merely loyal servants.”
When she had said that, all the other immortals and even Little Doggie the Immortal was shocked; the Abyssal Null Goddess was the direct protégé of the Death God Mingwang?!
Ji Yuan turned to the two immortals to grin, “You have better believe it. Because…”
He wanted to say because he had already banged their True God the Death God Mingwang aka Yun Chi. But he quickly changed his mind to say. “Because we are much closer to the Death God Mingwang than you think. And moreover we even know where the Death God Mingwang is now. In fact, after this trial, we will be seeing the Death God Mingwang again. You don’t mind letting me know your names so that I can report this directly to the Death God Mingwang?”
The two immortals had turned ashen and they quickly said, “Naturally we won’t doubt the Abyssal Null Goddess if you say that you are our True God’s direct protégé.”
Then they quickly bowed with their hands toward the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress even though they had a much lower cultivation realm than them.
The world of the immortals is different from the lower realm; their words are golden and are sealed in gold.
When the Abyssal Null Goddess had said that she was a direct protégé of the Death God Mingwang, she would not be making any false claims. This was not the way of a high immortal and their soul sea would not allow them to tell any untruths or there would be an immortal backlash.
When Ji Yuan saw that these two immortals were suddenly so submissive, he was thinking in secret: Maybe if Yun Chi is here, things would be even easier.
He was suddenly curious to know how strong a True God was.
The Abyssal Null Goddess Bai Qianfeng said nonchalantly, “The two of you are merely ascended immortals and are not native of the Desolate Divine Realm. You may not know this previously but now you do now.”
`Ji Yuan asked Bai Qianfeng curiously, “Now that you are a supreme leader. What do you plan to do with this world now?”
Bai Qianfeng smiled, “We are going to partition a part of this divine realm for humanity.”
Ji Yuan: ???
Bai Qianfeng explained with a wry smile, “There is a place in the Demonic Inner World that looks like the Celestial Realm and it have many tall mountains. It is quite an isolated place that even the demonic cultivators would dread to go.”
Ji Yuan asked curiously, “What place is this?”
When he had asked this question, all the immortals, including his group which consisted of the short old man the White Sword Monarch, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong, Ling Feiyue and the Lovely Empress were all looking at Bai Qianfeng curiously.
Bai Qianfeng inhaled slowly as she looked at the map array in front of her. After a while she began to say slowly, “Let’s call this place the Fenghua Great Continent then. We shall move all humanity to this place since they have no homeland now. If they persist in staying in their current homelands, we can’t stop them since this is their choice to remain. But for those that persist in staying in the Fenghua Great Continent, this place shall be their safe haven.”
Then she started to smile at Ji Yuan and the rest, “I guess that we will be a little busy before we go back to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I need all of you to gather humanity to this safe haven first. We can’t really use the demonic cultivators for this and we need to find the other golden celestials here and to persuade them to move to the Fenghua Great Continent.
Ji Yuan grinned, “No problem! Leave this to me instead!”
Ling Feiyue was smiling too, “No problem! Leave them to me.”
The Lovely Empress hummed softly, “Can’t I stay here a little longer? I am injured…”
Ji Yuan, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden took a weak look at her but say nothing; she was actually not in the least injured…
Ling Feiyue weakly thought: She just want to be with Ji Yuan for a few days? Isn’t this a little too obvious?
The short old man took a look the Lovely Empress before he roared with laughter, “Let me check your injuries for you first.”
The Lovely Empress: …
“Don’t you dare to touch me…”

Ji Yuan was now back to the human village in the Dark Phantom Forest with Zhi Jiugong.
This human village was where they had first started when they had first stepped foot in this Demonic Outer World and it was where they had learnt about this divine realm.
The Grand Elder Tu, Long Hu and many others were surprised to see Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong again.
There were even some maidens that Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong had rescued back then in the Dark Phantom Forest and they had also recognized Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong as well.
“Great Hero, you are back so soon?” The Grand Elder Tu was startled. “Then he quickly said, “It is alright to come back for resupply. We know that the strength of your profound animus is only 444 points.”
Ji Yuan: …
He weakly protested, “Actually I am much stronger now…”
“Actually we are here to tell you that we have reached a settlement with the demonic clans in the Demonic Outer World.” Zhi Jiugong smiled as she quickly stated their intentions.
“If you are willing to trust us then we will bring you to a new homeland via a teleport array. In this place, you will be safe from the constant threats of the demonic cultivators and you will be able to cultivate in peace.”
JI Yuan nodded as he explained, “And you will be able to obtain new profound treasures as your heritages and the demonic cultivators would not oppress you anymore. You lot are the luckiest because you are still free. As for those that are captivated by the nearby demonic clans, we will try to put all of you in the same vicinity so that they can at least be united with some of their kins and friends.”
Grand Elder Tu could not believe what he was hearing, “Is this really true? This isn’t a trick?”
Ji Yuan grinned, “Of course not. You can trust me on this.”
Grand Elder Tu said with uncertainty as he looked at the rest of the human cultivators that had gathered, “I will rather trust Maiden Zhi Jiugong on this.”
Ji Yuan: …
Zhi Jiugong smiled awkwardly, “We are serious. This Fenghua Great Continent is where you will be safe from the demonic cultivators. And I hope that you would all go to this place. If you remain in this place, we really can’t promise you if the demonic cultivators would not attack you.”
Grand Elder Tu muttered, “But this place is safe for us and we have been here for generations.”
Zhi Jiugong smiled, “The Fenghua Great Continent will be safer for your future generations. It is because several immortals will create an immortal array there. Any demonic cultivators entering that place will be restricted in their profound strength. So it will be a dreadful place for them.”
A handsome lad of 13 asked curiously, “Is this even possible? Just how big is this Fenghua Great Continent anyway? The cultivation resources that are required to create such an immortal array are not something that any cultivator or immortal can afford to pay.”
Ji Yuan laughed, “Don’t you worry about this. We have thousands of demonic clans paying for this immortal array. Haha…”
The young lad and the rest of the human cultivators were startled, “How is it possible?”
But the young lad quickly said as he took a curious look at Ji Yuan, “You are not lying…”
He turned to Grand Elder Tu to say, “They are not lying. I know.”
𝚗𝒐𝑽𝔢𝑙𝔫𝓔xt.𝗰𝑶𝗆
Now it was Ji Yuan turn to be startled, “You know? How do you know?”
Grand Elder Tu explained, “He is the young genius of our village. He has the foresight ability.”
Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes as he looked at the young lad, “This is an interesting ability…”
Then he laughed as he slammed his wooden box in front of the young lad as he opened it to reveal 9 divine swords and a scabbard.
“Except for 4 of these divine swords and my wooden scabbard, I am leaving you 5 of my divine swords and this wooden box to help your village in the future.”
The young lad smiled weakly, “Actually I have no combat ability. That is because I suck in this. So you can keep it.”
Ji Yuan frowned with disbelief, “Young genius. What is your name?”
The young lad answered quietly, “Shen Lie.”
