Chapter 919: 694 Secret Realm Project

Above Beijulu Continent, a mist of poisonous clouds pervaded, and the ground was brimming with crawling insects and venomous creatures, presenting a desolate scene of barren hills and foul waters, marshes and swampy mires...

Among the four great continents, Beijulu Continent was uniquely desolate, even surpassing the famously barren Xiniuhe Continent of the Prehistoric World. Barren hills and foul waters—that was Beijulu Continent.

And this was where the Demon Clan lived. As losers, having a place to call home was already a stroke of great fortune; it would be unreasonable to ask for more.

Although the environment of Beijulu Continent was harsh, the Demon Clan was innately strong. Far from being threatened by the hostile environment, it actually served to temper their will, fueling their aspiration to excel.

Overall, under the unwavering efforts of countless demons, even the exceedingly harsh Beijulu Continent had been managed in an orderly manner by them.

However, at this moment, the original masters of Beijulu Continent, the countless members of the Demon Clan, were all overpowered by a formidable force, kneeling on the ground, bowing their heads deeply, unable to rise.

In the depths of the void, the Cycle Divine Palace loomed, spreading an endless oppressive force throughout Beijulu Continent. The most powerful among the local demons were no more than Innate Dao Monarchs; how could they withstand the majesty of the Cycle Divine Palace and naturally found themselves suppressed, kneeling on the ground at the first instance.

Jiang Chen’s gaze fell upon them, not sparing these demons even a glance, instead surveying the barren hills and foul waters of Beijulu Continent, he asked Jiang Xuan, "What does the ancestor think of Beijulu Continent? Is it suitable for the Human Race to live?"

"Beijulu Continent, a land of filth, plagued with poisonous miasmas and clouds. It’s not just ordinary mortals who can’t survive here, even common immortals who come without a Detoxification Pill would be poisoned to death by the venomous airs of this land, not to mention the countless venomous insects and filthy creatures here."

"This place is too dangerous, unsuitable as a habitat for the Human Race. Even, had the Demon Clan not been left without choice back then, they wouldn’t have selected this place as their dwelling."

Jiang Xuan shook his head; he dared not claim that Beijulu Continent was fit for human habitation—for humans to live here would be akin to seeking death.

Initially, the creation of Beijulu Continent was intended as a dwelling for those Wilderness species.

These Wilderness species were innately extremely powerful, some even comparable to Innate Divine Demons. Though the environment of Beijulu Continent was harsh, for them, it was the most suitable abode.

Only later did an upheaval among humans occur, leading to the rise of the Demon Clan, who then came to dominate Beijulu Continent.

As for the feelings of the dispossessed Heavenly and Earthly Species, heh, who cares what they think? Without a Great Divine Transcendent among them, if humiliated, they could only grind their teeth and swallow blood.

In the Prehistoric World, without backing, that’s how it is. Bullied and oppressed, one could only endure in silence, with no place to even seek justice.

The weak have no voice!

...

However, Beijulu Continent, while harsh, was a land where an Innate Taoist Master possessed the power to turn the world on its head and where Great Divine Transcendents could destroy Heaven and shatter Earth.

If the Human Race’s esteemed cultivators were to make an all-out effort, it is estimated that within a century, Beijulu Continent could be transformed anew, into a place most suited for the Human Race to inhabit.

"Indeed, Beijulu Continent possesses a harsh environment, but it cannot be denied that it is precisely because of this harsh environment that the demonic clan has retained their bravery, not having their primal wildness completely eroded away by the passing of time."

"Unlike our Human Race, who, after living too long in peace, has gradually lost our spirit, thinking not of vengeance when oppressed, but of swallowing our resentment in silence."

"How can this be acceptable? Without spirit, one is a coward, and no matter how strong the power in their hands, it is not enough to be feared."

"If one is not ruthless, they cannot stand firm. How can one survive in the Prehistoric World without being ruthless? If the Human Race is not ruthless enough, how can it maintain its dominion as overlord among the myriad races?"

Jiang Chen shook his head, lost in these reflections.

"Do you mean to say?" Jiang Xuan, having listened to Jiang Chen’s lament, seemed to grasp the underlying message, asking uncertainly.

"Ancestor, I don’t plan to kill these demons, nor do I intend to disrupt Beijulu Continent. I will just let them be as they are."

"I want to make the entire Beijulu Continent into a massive trial ground, exclusively for our Human Race cultivators to come for training, to slay demons and eliminate fiends here, to collect various treasures, and to earn points."

"These points will be the reward for slaying demons, with different points awarded based on the varying strengths of the demons.

"As for the use of these points, once I become the Human King, I will personally go to Fire Cloud Cave to meet with the eight princes and earnestly request them to decree to open the Human Race’s treasury, allowing our clansmen to exchange the treasures inside with these points."

"There’s no need to worry that no clan members will come to Beijulu Continent for trials, not to mention that the demons themselves possess great value— their skin, flesh, sinews, blood, and horns are all treasures not commonly seen."

"Just consider that the Demon Clan has been operating in Beijulu Continent for hundreds of thousands of years, one can only guess how many treasures they have amassed. I will leave everything untouched, just remaining in Beijulu Continent, as soon as our Human Race cultivators get the news, they will certainly rush to this place to compete for the opportunity to undergo trials."

...

Jiang Chen spoke, outlining his grand plan to turn the entire Beijulu Continent into a secret realm, following the model of cultivating novels remembered from his previous life, allowing countless Human Race cultivators to come here for trials.

The numerous demons of Beijulu Continent, along with the wealth they had accumulated since their arrival, would be the treasures for Human Race cultivators to plunder.
