652: 208_3 652: 208_3 Why is there even a need to discuss such a matter?
At a time like this, which faction would be insane enough to trouble the Hundred Peaks Sect?
Being directly rejected, the Eclipse Demon’s face did not reveal any surprise.
He did not turn to leave either but continued, “What I’m suggesting is not to take action now, but to wait two more days.
After two days, once the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth has truly arrived, that’s when we act.”
Upon hearing this, an extremely elderly figure from the direction of the East Sea Mirage, his back completely hunched, exclaimed in shock, “Two days’ time?
The Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth will arrive in two days?
How did you come to know this precise timing?”
Everyone’s estimation of the arrival time of the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth was a rough guess at best.
Only when the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth actually arrives can everyone be certain that it has truly begun.
Yet now, the Sun Erosion Demon has firmly informed them of the arrival time of the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth.
“This matter cannot possibly be false.
As for the reason, it has been deduced by the masters of my Sun and Moon Demon Sect,” said the Eclipse Demon as he gestured with a hand pointing down toward his feet, “I can stay in your esteemed building.
If after two days the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth has not truly arrived, I, Sun Erosion, will let all of you deal with me as you see fit.”
As soon as the Eclipse Demon finished speaking, the faces of the crowd—which had been filled with disbelief and suspicion just moments before—suddenly took on a grave expression.
The Eclipse Demon is no small figure after all.
He is one of the most talented individuals in the Sun and Moon Demon Sect.
If he is now so certain that the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth will come after two days and can make such a statement, then he must have full confidence.
Who in the Sun and Moon Demon Sect has the ability to accurately predict the day of the arrival of the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth and to be so trusted by the Eclipse Demon?
Could it be the Sect Leader of their Demon Sect?
But given the cultivation base of the Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect, he must have already gone into slumber.
Having gone into slumber so early, it is impossible to predict the exact day of the arrival of the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, not even the Grand Preceptor can do that.
If the Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect could predict it early on, wouldn’t that be more terrifying than the Grand Preceptor of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty?
If that were the case, the Sun and Moon Demon Sect would have already made their move against the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty.
Therefore, the precise timing must not have been deduced by the Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect.
Then who could it be?
Moreover, why would the Sun and Moon Demon Sect want to attack the Hundred Peaks Sect at that time?
Because the Eclipse Demon disclosed the specific time of the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, everyone’s attitude towards him had eased a lot.
Ouyang Zhi slightly adjusted his sitting posture, his eyes filled with puzzlement as he continued to address the Eclipse Demon, “Even if the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth truly arrives two days later, it’s unlikely that all Earth Immortal Realm practitioners of the Hundred Peaks Sect will be asleep.
There will still be Earth Immortals among them.
The Hundred Peaks Sect is one of the ten major Immortal Sects and possesses the Mountain Protection Array.
When Earth Immortals utilize their full power, they can activate the might of the Mountain Protection Array.
Even if the three major Immortal Sects of our Great Lai Dynasty ally with your Sun and Moon Demon Sect, destroying the Hundred Peaks Sect will come at no small cost.
To do so may well result in a Pyrrhic victory.”
“No,” said the Eclipse Demon, shaking his head decisively, “After the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth arrives, all Earth Immortals of the Hundred Peaks Sect will fall asleep, not just the Hundred Peaks Sect.
At that time, all Earth Immortals universally will slip into slumber within a single day.”
“Impossible!” an elder with white hair and beard from the East Sea Mirage interjected directly, “This isn’t the first arrival of the Inversion.
Although I have never experienced the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, our building possesses many records about it.
Each Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth occurs with Earth Immortal experts entering slumber gradually.
It has never been said that all Earth Immortals fall asleep on the same day.”
“No…
Elder, what you said is not the whole truth,” Ouyang Zhi said with a slight shake of his head, “An ancient text from our Sun and Moon Sect records that within the past three eras, there was one Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth which was very special.
On that occasion, upon the arrival of the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, all Earth Immortals worldwide fell asleep on the same day.
Such a Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth had one characteristic: it was incredibly intense.
Moreover, within that particular Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, there appeared more and greater fortuitous encounters, greater opportunities!
Just as I said before, I am in your East Sea Mirage.
If what I say is incorrect, you are all free to take action against me.
But if what I say is true…”
“If what you say is true, then I, the East Sea Mirage, owe you, Eclipse Demon, a debt of gratitude,” spoke an elder sitting beside Ouyang Zhi slowly.
Owing a debt from one Immortal Sect to another is no small favor.
After all, the information the other party provides is too significant.
If they do not prepare in advance, and it turns out to be as the Eclipse Demon said, with all Earth Immortals falling into slumber on the same day,
then it would be a major problem for the East Sea Mirage if any Earth Immortal is still outside on that day.
Such experts, if unable to return, will slumber out in the open, unprotected.
Others could then easily kill them as they sleep.
“This matter certainly cannot be a lie.
I have come to you all because of the unique nature of this Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, because all Earth Immortals will slumber on that very day.
