This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable-Chapter 804 - 62: The Secret of the Demonic Sword

After a long while, Ying Mingyue raised her head, staring intently at Lu Qingshan, enunciating each word: "You didn’t lie to me?"

Seeing her reaction, Lu Qingshan knew that this matter was more likely to succeed.

He was not in a rush and calmly said, "Lie to you? Do I need to?"

"After all, once we marry, our relationship will be intertwined. Whether I like it or not, I would inevitably be involved if you are at odds with Honglie Demon Lord."

"If I didn’t need the Blood Spirit Crystal and wanted to cooperate with you sincerely, I wouldn’t have even thought to tell you all this, let alone deceive you."

"Mingyue, this is no longer a trivial power struggle.

You should understand that the great war between the Demon Domain and the Human Realm is imminent.

It might erupt in a thousand or two thousand years, or even sooner within a millennium."

"When war breaks out, it will bring an unprecedented revolution, reshuffling the situation. This is our chance.

Before that happens, what we need to do is to increase our strength so that we can claim a share of the spoils in the war.

Time waits for no one. We don’t have much time, which is why I am striving so hard and even making bold declarations to my peers."

"I’ve done all this. Do you still want to muddle along, continuously tolerating Honglie Demon Lord and others targeting you?

Once I become the Domain Lord, I will use all the power of the Sen Luo King Realm to support you.

As ’husband and wife,’ our best choice is to sincerely cooperate with each other!"

Lu Qingshan’s words were sincere and reasoning, hitting Ying Mingyue’s heart.

Ying Mingyue bit her lip and suddenly said dejectedly, "It’s too late."

"What do you mean?" Lu Qingshan was taken aback.

"The ’Wilderness’ in our Burning Moon Domain has already appeared, so there’s no longer even a millennium’s time before the great war.

In two or three hundred years at most, our Burning Moon Domain might launch the final battle against the Human Realm, perhaps even sooner."

"The Wilderness has appeared?!" Lu Qingshan exclaimed in shock.

He had never seen the Wilderness, but had heard of it. Once the world falls into decline, the Wilderness representing destruction and death will appear.

Ying Mingyue nodded, "And it appeared in Jian Luo King City. My father investigated recklessly within the Wilderness, resulting in his current injuries.

The area where the Wilderness is located has now been sealed off as a forbidden zone."

"Originally, the Wilderness spread slowly in its initial stage, taking a thousand or two thousand years without issue, but it appeared in Jian Luo King City of all places?"

"The people of the King’s Lineage would never sit by and watch the Wilderness devour the Royal City. They must now be coordinating with the other Holy Demon Clans to decide the timing of the battle."

"Although the other seven Great Holy Demon Clans might prefer to watch us suffer and refuse to cooperate with our Burning Moon Domain, one thing is certain: no matter the final coordination result, when the time comes, our Burning Moon Domain will immediately launch the great war, attacking the Eastern Domain of the Human Race with full force!"

"Because we can’t afford to wait."

Lu Qingshan’s gaze flickered with thoughts racing through his mind, "Where exactly did the Wilderness appear? Can you tell me more about it?"

Ying Mingyue nodded and detailed the location and situation of the Wilderness to Lu Qingshan.

After all, the matter of the ’Wilderness’ was not a secret; they only kept it under wraps to avoid causing panic.

"In the Wilderness Domain, all energy is forbidden..." Lu Qingshan’s heart felt heavy and indescribable.

The ’Wilderness’ was terrifying enough that even Demon Lords couldn’t withstand a single attack.

Faced with such a horrifying existence, no matter how tenacious the Human Race is, the Demon Race will launch a relentless assault on the Human Realm, never retreating.

Because for them, not conquering the Human Realm means a dead-end path.

The situation was far worse than Lu Qingshan had imagined.

Before coming to Jian Luo King City, Ao Ren Demon Venerable had not told him the reason behind Shi Wu Demon Venerable’s injury, and he hadn’t given it much thought.

It turns out that Shi Wu Demon Venerable’s injury was tied to such a significant secret.

Ying Mingyue didn’t know what was on Lu Qingshan’s mind and continued talking, "You are just a Low-Ranking Demon General now. In these two or three hundred years, forget about advancing to the Ninth Grade or mastering a King Realm. Even advancing to the Eighth Grade will be extremely difficult."

The Demon Race’s bloodline power continuously emerges with age.

Compared to the Human Race, who gain strength purely through their cultivation, the Demon Race’s strength comes easily.

However, the time required for this is exceedingly long.

Though the Demon Race can accelerate this process through cultivation to some extent.

Still, it can only shorten a thousand years to five hundred years, unlike the rapid advancement of Human Cultivators.

So, two or three hundred years is really too short!

Ying Mingyue did not look down on Lu Qingshan; she was just giving an objective assessment.

Lu Qingshan’s mood gradually grew heavier, lowering his head, deep in thought.

According to Ying Mingyue, the time left for the Human Race and for him was only two or three hundred years, or even less...

A palpable sense of urgency and a bit of confusion grew in his heart.

With such little time, could he really change anything?

Seeing Lu Qingshan lower his head, Ying Mingyue sighed with regret, "I admire your ambition and acknowledge your abilities to some extent.
