Chapter 859: Innate Four Symbols Great Formation_2

"It seems even Taiyi in his youth could not have been much different."

Great Divine Transcendents were communicating in secret, acknowledging Jiang Chen’s talent and believing his words to be true. Based on his current achievements, even if he might not be able to match Di Jun Taiyi in the future, the gap wouldn’t be too significant; naturally, there was no need for them to fear him.

"This kid is slippery, indeed, first invoking the name of a Saint, catching us off guard, leaving us no choice but to let him act."

"And now, he’s escalated the matter to the hatred between the Human Race and the Demon Clan. If we were to intervene on the demons’ side now, it would mean standing against the Human Race."

"I certainly don’t want to confront Empress Nuwa. Let it be, let it be. Things have come to this, the matter of resurrecting Di Jun Taiyi has come to nothing—let’s not speak of this again.

We should focus on evolving the Earth Immortal realm instead, and once it becomes the Immortal World, we may be able to ascend to become the Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial."

Some Great Divine Transcendents sighed, deciding to abandon the group of Demon Immortals.

Originally, once the Saints became aware of this matter, it was essentially doomed to failure. It was just that everyone was reluctant to see the results of so many years of effort go to waste, which is why they came forward, attempting to salvage the situation.

However, now that Jiang Chen had brought the Human Race into the fray, the situation further escalated, leaving the Great Divine Transcendents no choice, not wishing to offend the Human Race, they thoroughly abandoned any hope, deciding to give up on the Demon Immortal lineage.

They were not die-hard supporters of the Demon Clan, there was no need to risk themselves for the sake of Di Jun Taiyi.

...

"Great Illusionary Realm, arise!"

After suppressing the Elder of Whitehead, Jiang Chen fell silent for a long while before suddenly making his move. Willpower surged around him, casting an illusory scene above the sky.

This was a part of the Elder of Whitehead’s memory, extracted forcibly by Jiang Chen and turned into a phantom image displayed before everyone.

In the sky, the first memory that appeared was of the Elder of Whitehead’s first instance of eating a human.

It was in the Ancient Era, when the Elder of Whitehead had gone to visit a senior in the Heaven Court, and that Demon Clan powerhouse had captive humans within his Cave Heaven. Likely very appreciative of the Elder of Whitehead, not only did that Demon Clan powerhouse share human flesh with him, but he also explained in detail the various benefits of the Human Race.

And this, like a seed, took deep root in the Elder of Whitehead’s heart, and with the passage of time, kept growing and sprouting.

Thereafter, the Elder of Whitehead began his path of cannibalism, starting with petty theft, then secretly kidnapping people, and ultimately emulating the Demon Clan powerhouse by breeding humans.

...

The scene changed rapidly, soon arriving at tens of thousands of years ago, when the Elder of Whitehead founded Whitehead Mountain. He opened the sect widely, recruited disciples, preached the Tao, and taught the Law; everything seemed normal.

But before long, the Elder of Whitehead’s true nature began to show. On a certain night, he devoured a disciple who had come to pay respects...

From then on, at Whitehead Mountain, every so often a disciple would vanish or die.

And abnormalities?

The Elder of Whitehead was an Innate Daoist Master; if he didn’t want it to be known, who among the disciples of Whitehead Mountain could uncover anything unusual?

"To trust such evil beings is truly ludicrous!"

"Indeed, as time passes, many from the Human Race gradually forget their hatred for the Demon Clan. But the Demon Clan has not forgotten the taste of humans..."

Looking down at the group of disciples from Whitehead Mountain, who had turned pale, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but sneer.

The memory of the Elder of Whitehead shattered any chance of optimism in their hearts, revealing the Elder’s true face to them.

What respected ancestor? It was all a facade. He was a monster, a man-eating demon, respectable only in the public eye, revealing his fangs only in private.

"Demon Clan, I swear an eternal vendetta against you!"

"Upon the Heavenly Dao, here I, Chang Zhen, vow to eradicate the Demon Clan in this life, and should I break this vow, may heaven and earth annihilate me!"

Suddenly, someone bellowed, swearing a blood oath to exterminate all demons under the heavens.

"Emperor Lord, please give Chang Zhen a chance. Chang Zhen is willing to serve the Emperor Lord, only asking to slaughter the Demon Clan!"

After taking a blood oath, this Taiyi Golden Immortal named Chang Zhen suddenly prostrated himself in front of Jiang Chen, wishing to pledge his allegiance and join him in exterminating the Demon Clan.

"Agreed, not just you, all disciples on Whitehead Mountain who wish to kill demons, I am willing to accept and allow you to form your own army."

Anyone capable of killing the enemy is a warrior of the Human Race. Naturally, Jiang Chen would not decline their request.

"The Demon Clan harms people; we shall never cease until they are vanquished!"

As Jiang Chen’s voice rang out, immediately, hundreds of people stepped forward, roaring with a murderous intent.

As for the remaining disciples, they avoided eye contact, showing no reaction. Knowing each individual has their aspirations, Jiang Chen shook his head and did not trouble them.

"Take all the treasures from Whitehead Mountain with you, then proceed to the next location!"

Ordering the disciples to strip Whitehead Mountain clean, Jiang Chen led them straight to the next destination, Four Symbols Mountain!

...

Four Symbols Mountain, located in the heartland of Dongsheng Divine Continent, was extraordinarily flourishing. The mountain brimmed with Immortal Qi, busy with constant traffic of Immortals, amounting to tens of thousands.

All this was because at the top of Four Symbols Mountain, there was a great Immortal Dao sect named Four Symbols Sect. Its founding patriarch styled himself as the Four Symbols Immortal Person, possessing the cultivation of an Innate Dao Sovereign.

With an Innate Dao Sovereign at its helm, the future prospects of the Four Symbols Sect were clear to see. In just over a hundred thousand years, this sect became a first-rate power in Dongsheng Divine Continent.

The sect had tens of thousands of disciples, thousands of Immortals, hundreds of Golden Immortals, and dozens of Taiyi Golden Immortals. Even among Daluo Golden Immortals, there were four, who were the Four Symbols Immortal Person’s four principal disciples.

Indeed, this Four Symbols Immortal Person was also a Demon Immortal. This individual was much more high-profile than Priest Baiweng, not only revealing his own cultivation but also establishing the Four Symbols Sect, a first-rate power in Dongsheng Divine Continent.

Moreover, the way the Four Symbols Immortal Person conducted affairs was impeccable, not like Priest Baiweng who would occasionally indulge in secretive consumption of humans.

This person’s conduct was truly faultless, and if one were to ignore his background as a member of the Demon Clan, he could be promoted as a model disciple of the Mystic Sect without any issue.

The Four Symbols Immortal Person was too perfect, a paragon for disciples of the Mystic Sect. This made taking action against him far more difficult than with Priest Baiweng. After all, Priest Baiweng merely pretended to be good, but this person truly was good.

Moreover, the Four Symbols Sect was exponentially larger than Whitehead Mountain, with extensive connections. The disciples of the Four Symbols Sect had received great kindness from the Four Symbols Immortal Person and were fiercely loyal to him.

If one were to move against the Four Symbols Immortal Person, they would inevitably have to confront the Four Symbols Sect, and if the Four Symbols Sect were implicated, the surrounding powers with connections would not sit idly by.

This truly was a situation where pulling one hair would affect the whole body!

The Four Symbols Immortal Person was indeed much more problematic than Priest Baiweng, having tightly intertwined himself with the Immortal Dao of Dongsheng Divine Continent, making him difficult to target.

This was the reason why Jiang Chen first made a move on Priest Baiweng instead of the Four Symbols Immortal Person.

Priest Baiweng was easier to deal with. They could start with him to establish a cause of righteousness, which would then facilitate dealing with other Demon Immortals.

...

Four Symbols Mountain was extremely far from Whitehead Mountain, over several hundred million miles away. However, Jiang Chen’s speed was so rapid that in an instant, he crossed the endless void and arrived directly outside of Four Symbols Mountain a million miles away.

"Wait, this setup, why does it look familiar? Could it be the Innate Four Symbols Array of the Ancient Heavenly Court?"

Upon arriving near Four Symbols Mountain, Jiang Chen sensed something was off. The Mountain Protection Array of Four Symbols Mountain was actually a top-notch treasure from the Great Ancient Heaven Court, the Innate Four Symbols Array.

The Innate Four Symbols Array was widely known in the Prehistoric World, and nearly every Immortal Person of significance knew of it. Jiang Chen wouldn’t have been surprised by anyone else’s Innate Four Symbols Array.

But the Innate Four Symbols Array of the Heaven Court was different because it was the original array, innately born, composed of four High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, along with a High-grade Innate Array Map.

An array setup with five High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, when fully activated, could rival a top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure.
