Day after day passed so quickly, and six days had passed since Diablo woke up, but Ling Yun and the others still had not come out of their seclusion.
Meanwhile, in the southern part of the cultivator realm where the demon gate was located, an entire army of demon lords had filled the area, which made the entire area gloomy, but no one moved from their place.
Even Lucifer and the four remaining demon lords just quietly waited inside the demon gate, especially since the devil still hadn't come to meet them. But alas, they still didn't know that he had died in Ling Xi's hands, so their wait was in vain.

Even though Ling Yun had asked him not to interfere in their fight with the demons, Michael still prepared his angel troops to fill the area around the Brilliant Gate. However, he asked them not to move before the war actually started, but the other archangels seemed impatient to face those demons.
"Didn't Ling Yun contact you, Michael?" Uriel asked him.
Michael shook his head at him. "Ling Yun hasn't contacted me at all, and I've also tried to contact him, but he ignored my calls."
"Tsk! That human is really arrogant!" Jophiel said as she gritted her teeth in annoyance. Even though Michael had warned her sternly, she still felt furious towards Ling Yun, especially after she saw Glacia's condition was so bad, and she even had to send her to purgatory.
Michael just shook his head at her words; he then asked the others. "What about those blessed people? Have they also prepared their troops?"
"Not yet." Raphael shook his head at him. "Apparently, Lucifer had high confidence in defeating these cultivators, so he didn't contact Travis."
"Hmm?" Michael raised his eyebrows after hearing that, especially since he knew Lucifer so well, and his actions were contradictory to his character. 'What is he actually planning? Why didn't he contact Travis? Could there be something I've missed?'
Camael suddenly said to him. "Michael, I felt an unusual aura from Lucifer and the others, and their aura was completely different from usual."
"What do you mean by that?" Not only Michael, but the other archangels also turned to her with looks full of questions.
"I don't know for sure." Camael answered as she shook her head. "If I wanted to be sure, then I would have to go to the demon gate, but they are all gathered there now, so I can't possibly go there alone."
"In that case, I will go with you there to confirm about them." Barachiel volunteered to accompany Camael.
Gabriel also said to him. "I'll go with them, Michael."
"All right." Michael nodded in agreement. "You three can go there, but you have to be careful of Lucifer and the others."
"Yes."
.

Not only the demons and angels, but the Cultivator Peak was already filled with hundreds or even thousands of cultivators, and there were still many of them waiting below.
Xuanyuan Xue'er, Long Wei, and Feng Qingmeng deliberately alerted them all after they received information from their spies monitoring the demon gate about the appearance of the demon troops.
"Hey, Big Sis! We've been waiting two weeks, and the demons are ready to attack us, but Ling Yun still hasn't appeared." Xuanyuan Chang'er complained with an ugly look to her big sister. "Besides, we still don't know the whereabouts of those ancestors, and they seem to have disappeared into the earth."
However, Xuanyuan Xue'er paid no attention to her little sister, and she asked Long Wei and Feng Qingmeng. "Have Ling Yun and Ruxue contacted you guys?"
"No." Feng Qingmeng shook her head at her. "It seems that Madam Feng is still in seclusion with them, and I don't know when they will come out."
Long Wei sighed softly and answered her. "Ling Yun hasn't contacted me either, so I don't know when he'll be here."
The patriarchs and matriarchs of other clans also seemed anxious about the war that was about to start, especially since the number of demons was not small.
Besides them, sect masters such as Qin Shuang and Xue Xing were also on standby there, even though they were also anxious about the war, but they also seemed eager to fight the demons.
However, a tear in the air suddenly appeared in front of them, and several old men emerged from it, shocking them.
"Haha! Old Xiao! We can finally leave that damn forest!" Huo Poyun said this while laughing loudly after they came out of it.
Xiao Feng sighed softly upon hearing that. "At first, I thought that spirit woman had forgotten that she took us to that forest."
"It seems the war is about to start, huh?" Lei Guang said as he looked at the cultivators who had gathered there.
Jiang Yuan and the others nodded in agreement with that, and Long Weishan asked his son. "So who are our opponents? Will the demons and those blessed people attack us at the same time?"
"No, Father." Long Wei shook his head at him. "The demons are already preparing to attack us, but we still don't see any signs of movement from those blessed people."
"I see." Long Weishan nodded in understanding. "If our opponents are only demons, I am still confident that we can face them. However, if those blessed people join this war, then we will definitely be unable to face them."
"You are too confident, Old Long."
"Hmm?" They all turned towards the voice, and several women landed in front of them, and Long Weishan asked one of them. "What do you mean by that, Bing'er?"
Feng Bing'er sighed softly and told them. "According to information from Senior Ling Xi, that devil has given his devil qi to Lucifer and the other demon lords, so their current strength is different from before, and we must be careful when fighting against them."
"That devil. huh?" Long Weishan muttered softly.
"You don't need to mind him, Old Long." Ling Xiaofei said to him. "Senior Ling Xi has already gotten rid of that devil, so we just need to focus on dealing with those demons."
Before they could ask, Shi Xiaoyin had told them first. "As for Ling Yun and his woman, they are currently making their final breakthrough, so they might arrive a little late."
Suddenly, they felt two auras rushing towards them, and one of them was extremely powerful. Soon, the two people landed in front of them, and Feng Yujie said something to one of them. "You are finally willing to return to this place again, Yang Yuan."
"Hahaha!" Yang Yuan laughed when he heard that, and he then patted the shoulder of the man beside him. "Honestly, I came here to bring my disciples to train, but I heard people talking about the war, so I brought him here to have a look."
Feng Yujie and the others looked at the man in surprise, and Huo Poyun asked. "Isn't he your disciple, Wei Feng, Old Yang? As far as I remember, he was crippled by Jiang Bai years ago, but I can feel the Qi in his body again."
"You didn't remember it wrong, Old Huo." Yang Yuan replied as he nodded. "However, the goddess of luck was still on my disciple's side; he met an extraordinary physician, and that person had already recovered his profound veins, so he can cultivate again now."
Hearing that, Jiang Yuan's expression changed slightly, and he then said to him. "Old Yang, I still didn't expect that my grandson would do that to Wei Feng back then, and I already punished him severely for that."
"I know." Yang Yuan nodded to him. "Even though you have punished Jiang Bai severely, the matter between them is not over yet, and Wei Feng has worked hard in the past three months to take revenge on him. So I hope you don't interfere with their problems, or you will face me."
Jiang Yuan shook his head. "Even though we haven't seen each other for so long, you shouldn't have forgotten my character, right? Even though Jiang Bai is my grandson, he has made a fatal mistake, so I will not interfere in their matters."
"That's good." Yang Yuan nodded in satisfaction. "However, the current Wei Feng is still no match for Jiang Bai, so I will help him return to his peak first, and we will watch the battle between them later."
Suddenly, Qin Shuang approached them and greeted them. "Master! Junior Brother! Welcome back."
"Haha." Yang Yuan laughed as he nodded in satisfaction. "Little Shuang, you've worked hard, and your cultivation has improved a lot since I left our sect."
"Since you have entrusted our sect to me, I naturally cannot disappoint you, Master." Qin Shuang then asked Wei Feng. "How are you?"
"Even though I had to start my cultivation from scratch, I'm fine now." Wei Feng replied as he smiled faintly.
Lei Guang suddenly asked him. "Who was the person who restored your profound veins, Wei Feng? As I recall, Old Yu had tried to treat you in the past, but he was powerless to help you."
"Yes, Grandpa Yu really couldn't help me at that time." Wei Feng replied as he nodded in agreement. "Honestly, the person who restored my profound veins was still a novice cultivator at that time, but her medical skills were much higher than Grandpa Yu's."
"Who is she? How can a novice cultivator compare to Old Yu?" Lei Guang and the others asked in disbelief.
