Chapter 2560: How Can One See a Rainbow Without Going Through Wind and Rain

“Yes, it’s the Devil Sect you reported to me before,” Senior White Two replied.

Song Shuhangs previous five tribulations had all been innovative.

From the first group tribulation to the second divine appearance in the Netherworld, followed by the third Black Dragon world’s transcending hyperspace lecture, the fourth journey back to the ‘past’ with Sixteen, and finally, the fifth Heavenly Dao Eradication lecture.

No matter the number of participants, location, dimension, time, or even the Heavenly Dao itself, none could stop Song Shuhang from delivering his lecture.

Therefore, the sixth lecture must not disappoint the cultivators of the myriad worlds.

“I’ve gathered information about the Demon Sea World… By my estimates, it’s a very special world, even more chaotic than the Netherworld Realm, without any semblance of order. It stands in opposition to the present world, with laws vastly different from ours. If we could carve out a portion of the Demon Sea World within the Netherworld Realm, we might even be able to summon the aura of the Primordial Era. So, how about it? Do you want to take on the challenge? To undergo your final tribulation in the Demon Sea World?” Senior White Two suggested.

“Completely opposite to the present world? Will the rules for the tribulation and divine proclamation be the same?” Song Shuhang pondered.

Senior White Two floated slightly upward as he spoke, “I’ve simulated the structure of the Demon Sea World. The most fundamental rules are certainly the same. In the ancient times, both the Demon Sea World and the present world were under the dominion of the Heavenly Dao alone, without a Netherworld ruler. The most basic rules that form the world would definitely be the same. It’s in the specifics where there would be opposite characteristics. For instance… after the divine proclamation, you might not receive the power of virtue, but rather some other force that stimulates the inner demons in

your heart, making the tribulation undergoer even more violent.”

“Will the strength of the inner demon become uncontrollable?” Song Shuhang asked.

He wanted to cultivate his inner demon mainly to use it as an ingredient and to experience the joy of nurturing it… However, he did not want the inner demon’s strength to exceed his control and lead to self-destruction.

After all, he could not match Skylark and Thrice Reckless in their daring. At the critical moment of tempting fate, he would still hold back, lacking the courage to go all out in one fell swoop, as well as Senior Thrice Reckless Mad Saber’s intuition and vast experience in flirting with the brink of death.

“No cultivator can assure they will fully control their inner demons. Even those with the strongest Dao-heart will have moments of weakness. However, in your current state, you need not worry about losing control when confronting your inner demons,” Senior White Two glanced at Song Shuhang. Song Shuhang quickly understood, “The power of virtue?”

“Yes,” Senior White Two nodded. Song Shuhangs power of virtue came from accumulating five divine proclamations and Profound Sage Lectures.

After harvesting ‘virtue’ from the universe’s practitioners five consecutive times, Song Shuhangs power of virtue was unparalleled.

With such an immense amount of power of virtue, Song Shuhang was essentially unbeatable when facing his inner demons.

“Moreover, it’s about time you went through a ‘Heart Demon Tribulation’ to gain some experience,” Senior White Two added.

Song Shuhang reviewed everything Senior White Two had said, concluding, “So, we first use the Limitless Demon Sect to carve out a small ‘demon nation’ in a specific part of the Netherworld Realm. Then, we take over this demon nation, leveraging its unique properties to allow me to transcend the tribulation within and officially advance to the Eighth Stage Realm.”

Initially, Song Shuhang merely intended to use Senior White Two’s authority as the ruler of the Netherworld Realm to give the disciples of the Limitless Demon Sect, who aimed to exploit the Netherworld Realm’s lack of a master and restore a ‘demon nation’ there, a taste of despair. “You thought the Netherworld Realm had no ruler? In reality, the Netherworld Realm still has me, Senior Big White Two, overseeing it. Eat sh*t, Limitless Demon Sect!”

He hadn’t anticipated that Senior White Two’s scheme to be even deeper. The ruler of the Netherworld truly lived up to his title. According to Senior White Two’s plan, he aimed to further exploit the disciples of the Limitless Demon Sect and use the ruler’s authority to covertly lead them to pay a significant price to establish a ‘Demon Nation’ in the Netherworld Realm.

Once the ‘Demon Nation’ was successfully established, just as the disciples of the Limitless Demon

Sect reached the peak of their demonic life, he would use the ruler’s authority to forcibly take over the ‘Demon Nation,’ casting the Limitless Demon Sect from the pinnacle of power down to the mortal realm… and even into the abyss.

“Exactly, that’s the strategy,” Senior White Two confirmed.

“Senior Song, you’re practically a devil,” Soft Feather silently mourned for the disciples of the Limitless Demon Sect for 0.0001 seconds before switching to a cheerful mode.

Song Shuhang remained speechless.

“However, my lord, if the Limitless Demon Sect truly establishes a Demon Nation, won’t it affect the stability of our Netherworld Realm?” Little Sun T233 inquired.

According to Senior White Two’s description, the Demon Nation seemed to be a primitive world not under the Netherworld ruler’s control.

“If the Netherworld had no master and they managed to establish a Demon Nation, it might cause headaches for the next ruler. But now, the Netherworld Realm still has me, the strongest squatter,” Senior White Two said with a smile.

With a master in the Netherworld Realm, it was entirely possible to first select a region, cultivate it thoroughly, and lay all the groundwork. Then, set the location for the ‘Demon Sea World’ that the Limitless Demon Sect intended to open and restore. As the ruler of the Netherworld Realm, he could do whatever he pleased.

“So, in the early stages… Not only do we not need to thwart the grand plans of the Limitless Demon Sect, but we can also provide them with some conveniences in the Netherworld Realm at the right time, enabling them to successfully establish a portion of the Demon Sea World in a specific location within the Netherworld Realm?” Song Shuhang suggested.

“No, Senior Song. We cannot afford to provide any advantages to the Limitless Demon Sect, nor can we cease our efforts to undermine their grand plans in the main world,” Soft Feather suddenly interjected.

Su Clan’s Sixteen nodded, “l share Soft Feather’s sentiment. Our efforts to undermine the Limitless Demon Sect’s grand plans must continue. We need to ensure their plan faces constant setbacks and challenges. After enduring numerous hardships, they will finally succeed in establishing a Demon Nation in the Netherworld Realm. This way, the Limitless Demon Sect’s members won’t harbor any suspicions.”

Disciples of the Demon Sect are inherently skeptical. If their grand plan proceeded too smoothly, they would become wary.

Thus, the setbacks and challenges they faced could not be halted—as long as they could ensure the successful establishment of the Demon Nation in the end.

There’s no sense of accomplishment in obtaining something too easily.

Only after enduring many trials and finally acquiring something does one truly feel a sense of fulfillment.

How could one witness a rainbow without first enduring the storm? Even though this rainbow was man-made, it was still a rainbow..
