Chapter 965: Slowly Dissipating the Danger

Transmitter Jiang pondered for a moment. Without the slightest hesitation, he still exited the Immortal Alliance headquarters and headed straight for the divine devils rampaging across the world. Even though he knew that death might still await him, he didn't hesitate in the slightest. After all, as the First Transmitter, he had already "died" countless times.

Fortunately, however, the venerable Transmitting Celestial Venerable had left behind certain methods. As long as the Primal Chaos remains indestructible and the Celestial Venerable's principles are immutable, he, existing as an extension of the Celestial Venerable, would never be destroyed. His state would forever be fixed at that original point in time, and as long as he wished, he could revert to his original state at any time. Not only him, but even the Guixu Realm where he resided was the same.

This was a safeguard left by Transmitting Celestial Venerable for the Primal Chaos Realm. It allowed him to fearlessly address various potential issues in the Primal Chaos Realm, and through continuous deaths, his adaptability and experience would constantly improve, enabling him to handle matters with increasing ease and proficiency. And if he encountered something truly unmanageable, he could use his body as a vessel and bring it back to the Guixu Realm. By leveraging the forced state restoration during reversion, he could achieve its complete eradication.

The power of reversion in the Guixu Realm was something Transmitting Celestial Venerable comprehended after attaining enlightenment, during nearly a thousand years of wandering beyond the heavens, when he re-established the Myriad Immortal Alliance. The Celestial Venerable once told him that even the danger of True Immortal Inscriptions could be dissolved into nothingness through successive reversions.

"Not even a trace of information was left; this situation has only occurred twice before.""It seems that behind this current disturbance, it's either True Immortal Inscriptions again, or..."

Transmitter Jiang glanced towards the eastern frontier of the Primal Chaos Realm. He snorted coldly and continued on his way.

Upon encountering a rampaging divine devil, Transmitter Jiang immediately brought it under control. He then split off a wisp of his divine consciousness and plunged it into the creature. A moment later, the grotesque divine devil exploded with a roar.

Transmitter Jiang frowned slightly, "Only an empty shell is left? It escaped quickly."

Subsequently, Transmitter Jiang experimented on more than ten other divine devils. All yielded the same result.

"They clearly won, yet they remain so cautious...""What exactly is their purpose?"

This unknown adversary made Transmitter Jiang feel a trace of pressure, something he hadn't felt in a long time. He felt as though he saw a thick dark cloud slowly approaching from the horizon, poised to shroud the entire sky of the Primal Chaos Realm.

"Enough," he thought. "Let's deal with these anomalies before me first. Once they reveal their true intentions again, we'll address them specifically. If there's truly no other way... then I'll have no choice but to seek aid from the Celestial Venerable."

Transmitter Jiang thought thus, as he crushed another divine devil to dust. Following this, he did not continue to act personally, but returned to the Guixu Realm and issued an order to the Immortal Alliance headquarters for a complete purge of divine devil anomalies everywhere.

The divine devils were rampant, and the Immortal Alliance's grassroots defense forces were almost entirely paralyzed. To resolve the trouble completely and quickly, a powerful, influential figure was needed to lead the effort. As the First Transmitter, Jiang naturally would not appear in person. After inquiring among the other Transmitters, only a handful were willing to take on this arduous task. Ultimately, after some deliberation, Transmitter Jiang decided to put Transmitter Feng in charge of the matter. Firstly, Transmitter Feng had previously left a good impression on him. Secondly, Jiang believed that this relatively younger Transmitter needed more opportunities for tempering.

"If a second Guixu Realm is established," Transmitter Jiang thought to himself, "he might be considered as a successor, provided he can pass the trials."

Transmitter Feng, also known as Mo Rubing, the Dharma King of the Xuantian Sect, began issuing commands item by item after receiving the order. With the official command from the Myriad Immortal Alliance, those cultivators of the Soul Transformation and Dao Integration stages who had been cowering and only looking out for themselves now had no choice but to step forward and actively clear out the rampaging demonic gods. Collaborating with the black-clad cultivators of the era, they quickly began to slowly destroy the millions of divine devils that had lost their master control and whose combat power was greatly reduced.

As the saying goes, a disease comes like a landslide, but recedes like drawing silk. From its sudden outbreak to its spread across the entire Immortal Alliance, the demonic god calamity took only most of a day. Yet, for the Myriad Immortal Alliance to slowly clear out these demonic gods, it would take most of a month.

After all the divine devil avatars were eradicated, the real problem emerged: What to do with the cultivators whose minds had been corrupted and who had been possessed by the divine devils. As the divine devil avatars were eliminated, almost all of these cultivators became mindless, demented individuals. Logically speaking, simply slaughtering all these cultivators would have successfully resolved the calamity. However, an order from the Immortal Alliance's highest decision-making body stated that no one was permitted to arbitrarily harm the lives of these cultivators. And those who, out of spite, had killed some cultivators received severe punishment.

"Even if they are guilty," the order proclaimed, "until their crimes are officially declared, they remain members of the Myriad Immortal Alliance. Harming them is a violation of the Immortal Alliance's laws."

With such words spoken, naturally, no cultivator would dare to brazenly slaughter the demented cultivators who no longer had any means of resistance. Instead, according to the command, they were all to be escorted to the Immortal Alliance headquarters to await their fate. This process lasted for over ten days.

The divine devil calamity finally subsided completely. The surviving cultivators all praised the Immortal Alliance's benevolence and righteousness. As a reward for the cultivators who had contributed to quelling the calamity, the Myriad Immortal Alliance then generously bestowed upon them a remarkably substantial amount of contribution points. The amount far exceeded that of ordinary tasks, and the breadth of rewards surpassed everyone's expectations. One didn't even need to have actively fought; even those who had merely provided information on the divine devils' locations received a significant amount of contribution points. This made the cultivators who had previously chosen to stand by idly stamp their feet and beat their chests in endless regret.

The cultivators who had received rewards and suddenly found themselves wealthy eagerly entered the Heavenly Profound Mirror to select the items they desired. At this point, the Myriad Immortal Alliance issued another announcement, stating that the cause of the recent divine devil calamity had been identified. Those cultivators had largely developed resentment because cultivation techniques were too expensive and they couldn't afford their desired ones. Over time, this resentment accumulated, eventually leading them to be deluded by an ancient evil fiend and become its pawns. To prevent such a tragedy from happening again, the Myriad Immortal Alliance, having learned a painful lesson and reflected upon itself, decided that from this day forward, all cultivation techniques sold in the Heavenly Profound Mirror would have their prices reduced by one-third.

As soon as the news broke, it immediately caused an uproar. One must understand that a one-third price reduction was truly no small sum. Especially for more expensive cultivation techniques, the more contribution points one would save. Consequently, the cultivators who had just become suddenly wealthy instantly went wild. They no longer looked at ordinary goods, but focused all their attention on the countless cultivation techniques.
