Chapter 2255 The Sudden Cessation of Chaos
The two most terrifying things in this world are hatred and self-interest!
The gods of Lingxu have always controlled the demon realm and seized countless benefits that originally belonged to other celestial demons.
Over the years, the Demon Realm has gone mad for the Dragon-Pillar, and how many wars have been fought around it?
The most direct consequences of war are the loss of interests and the rapid accumulation of hatred.
Therefore, the little demon that He Lingchuan summoned last time told him very frankly that after years of chaotic battles, the cause of a war in the demon realm now may not be the Punishing Dragon Pillar, but sometimes it is simply hatred!
Hatred is something that is easy to create, but it takes a tremendous amount of effort to resolve.
Therefore, the number of gods in the Spirit Void has shrunk to less than nine thousand, while its opponent, the Kshatriyas, has suffered even greater losses in recent years, and has even split into several factions.
In conclusion, a chaotic demon realm is very harmful to the gods of the spirit realm, as it is the main maintainer of this order.
Once the old order is broken, new conflicts will be endless.
Therefore, in He Lingchuan's view, the chaos in the Demon Realm is not yet over, because hatred is like a snowball, it will only get bigger and bigger.
The sudden cessation of the Demon Realm War must have some special reason.
Moreover, why did it have to happen now of all times?
He Lingchuan smiled and said, "What's the use of you trying so hard to cover it up for them? With your divine status, even if there are any benefits outside, they probably won't fall into your lap."
“You…” Puyin God showed anger for the first time.
Anger that had been hit where it hurt.
It is merely a minor deity, neither among the Spirit Realm nor the Kshatriya Heaven; neither side wants it. In the divine realm, beings like it are the mainstream, known as "divine people," the commoners of the divine realm.
Any benefits, whether visible or invisible, in the realm of gods are always divided up by the big shots and middle-ranking officials; it certainly doesn't get a chance to be among them.
However, Puyin God still has a few temples in the human world, a few believers, and can use the few Dragon-Slaying Pillars at his disposal to collect some Nightmare Qi, so he lives a slightly better life than ordinary gods.
But of course it wants to live a better life.
He Lingchuan interrupted it, pointing to the Xinglong Pillar on the table: "If you refuse to tell me, I'll find other Heavenly Demons to ask. There are over 60,000 Heavenly Demons, aren't there? Surely a few of them will be willing to tell the truth?"
With his current reputation and power, can't he just ask whoever he wants?
If Puyin God does not tell the truth, Xinglong Pillar will be given to other demons.
It is definitely more painful for others to get it than for oneself to not get it. Moreover, the Nine Nether Emperor is right. Good things never come its way, so why should it keep secrets for the beneficiaries?
Will people reward it?
"The Xinglong Pillar is an extremely ominous object; whoever possesses it may face certain death."
He Lingchuan picked up Xing Longzhu and shook it lightly twice: "Then I won't harm you. You can leave now."
“I haven’t finished speaking,” Pu Yin said with dissatisfaction. “However, I have received news that the Holy Venerable Lingxu has announced that he will no longer pursue Xing Longzhu, at least not for the time being.”
"Why?" He Lingchuan frowned slightly. "The Lingxu Clan isn't just his. Just because he says he won't pursue them, does that mean the Lingxu Gods will stop?"
For such a large organization, the most difficult thing to do is to unify actions and ensure that orders are obeyed.
Given the demon realm's system, this would probably be even more difficult.
Puyin hesitated for a long time this time.
He Lingchuan didn't urge it, but asked instead, "Is it related to the successful divine descent experiment again?"
Puyin immediately retorted, "You heard the rumors too?"
"Do you really think they wouldn't leak the news about something this big? There's an old saying, 'Walls have ears,'" He Lingchuan shrugged. "As far as I know, this isn't the first time the Lingxu Clan has announced the success of a divine descent, is it?"
Puyin God breathed a sigh of relief. If the Nine Nether Emperor already knew, then this secret wouldn't be considered a leak by him.
“Yes, it was announced seven or eight years ago that the divine descent experiment was only one step away from success. The Holy Venerable Lingxu wanted to weaken the influence of the Xinglong Pillar and make everyone listen to it,” said God Puyin. “But it was no use. At that time, everyone was so engrossed in the battle that they didn’t listen to the Holy Venerable Lingxu, even the gods of Lingxu themselves didn’t listen to him.”
He Lingchuan nodded. He had also heard of that epic battle, in which the Holy Venerable Lingxu personally intervened, declaring that an agreement had been reached and both sides had ceased hostilities.
However, less than twenty hours after the peace declaration was issued, the two great gods of Lingxu were engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy.
The conflict has escalated to this point that even the prestige of the Holy Venerable Lingxu is no longer effective.
"So why did it work this time?"
"This time it is a public test of the true form of the divine soul. The Holy Venerable Lingxu even invited Kshatriya and other great gods to come and witness it in person." Puyin God was not invited to the scene, but he could hear that "I heard that in order to be fair, one of the gods who descended to the mortal world this time was from the Lingxu group, and the other was from Kshatriya."
Have you ever heard of the names "Wu Yao" and "Xi Yu"?
“I recognize them. They are twins, and their innate abilities are very similar. They are gods…” Puyin suddenly realized, “You mean, they are the gods who conducted the experiments in the lower realm?”
"They caused the sea to freeze for ten miles."
“Frozen? Hmm, that must be them. These twins, one is in the Spirit Void Realm, and the other is in the Kshatriya Realm.” Puyin God continued, “I heard that not only did their entire divine souls descend to the mortal realm, but they also stayed there for a long time, even participating in a mortal battle, and have not returned to the divine realm to this day!”
He Lingchuan pressed further, "You didn't go back to the God Realm? Are you sure?"
“How can I be sure? I only heard it secondhand!” Puyin God said confidently. “In any case, after these witnesses returned, they said that the divine descent experiment was a preliminary success and the future is promising.”
"This news shocked the entire Demon Realm?"
"Of course. All the gods I know have been discussing this lately; everyone wants to return to the mortal realm."
It turns out that the Holy Venerable Lingxu has colluded with Kshatriya; this is no simple matter.
No matter how much the Lingxu Clan boasted about the success of their experiments, the other demons only thought they were bragging. However, if the Kshatriya Clan, as the Lingxu Clan's traditional adversary, also spoke well of the Lingxu Saint Venerable's experimental results, then those words would carry a high degree of credibility in the demon realm.
He Lingchuan stroked his chin.
No wonder he felt that Narakuten was not entirely truthful and was hiding something during his two recent conversations with him; now I understand.
Puyin God paused for a moment, then said, "Moreover, the Holy Venerable Lingxu himself admitted that even if the later experiments are successful, the number of skins they can create is ultimately limited, and it is impossible to have one for every person in the entire Demon Realm."
He Lingchuan thought to himself, "Impressive." The Holy Venerable Lingxu used this move to temporarily offset the negative impact of Xing Longzhu in the Demon Realm and regain the initiative.
