sparring ground, the virtual combat room, and even leisure and entertainment, shopping areas—it was like a whole city.After Ripple quickly recorded this, she closed the light screen of her intelligen...Ripple heard that a secret realm was about to appear in the demon world, she knew that the human race would definitely make a move this time. After all, this was a brand new secret realm, and it had never been explored. As pioneers, there would definitely be great gains.

The current king of the demons is a tortoise. He lived long enough and his shell was thick enough, so he became the demon king by simply enduring.

However, Xuan Gui himself was not weak. He was just a rather lazy turtle who disliked fighting and preferred a peaceful life. Therefore, upon receiving the request from the human race, he summoned representatives from each clan to discuss the matter.

"The four major clans of the human race have jointly sent me a letter, wanting to bring their disciples into the demon territory to explore the secret realm that is about to open. What do you think"

Gui Di said slowly.

"Why should we let them into our territory When a secret realm emerged on human land, they didn't invite us demon clan to go either! They always want to take advantage, is there such a good thing in the world"

The Elder of the Bear Clan was the first to jump up in disagreement, followed by the Snake Clan and the Demon Butterfly Clan who also voiced their opposition.

"Do you think they won't enter the demon territory just because we disagree"

The elder of the peacock clan sneered and asked back.

"That's right, with their human greed, if we don't agree, they'll definitely sneak in. Then there will be a fight!"

"Fight! Who's afraid of who! There's no reason to lose on our own turf. I won't let them live!"

The leader of the Tiger Clan, known for his fiery temper, bellowed.

Immediately, some aggressive demon tribes came out to support the Tiger Tribe, and for a moment, the scene became quite chaotic.

Guì Dí surveyed the surroundings, letting out a cold snort before silencing everyone with a glance. He then spoke:

"What's your opinion of the Bai family's younger generation"

A single sentence caused all the Elder Demons to focus their gazes on Ripples.

R ripples were gossiping with Duo Duo in their mind palace, when they unexpectedly found themselves caught in the crossfire. Undeterred, she calmly stood up and said:

"As a junior, I think it's better to avoid confrontation than to clash with the human race head-on. We could completely use this first appearance of the secret realm to negotiate with them."

How do we talk What do we talk about What benefits are there for the demon clan

Guidi slowly asks three consecutive questions.

Since we know the human race is determined to obtain this secret realm, let them come. But how many will they send How long can they stay in the demon world And how will they pay our demon clan's fee These are all up to us to decide. We can negotiate all of these terms.

There are many human clans, so we set a limit on the number of participants and let them compete among themselves. We don't interfere or offend anyone because there are too many cultivators entering our territory. We have reason to suspect that they may have malicious intentions towards our demon clan.

As for those sect disciples who come to our demon territory, they will definitely need food and lodging. Those with a lively mind will certainly want to exchange some cultivation resources that are rare in the human world. We can simply designate an area and set up a trading market there, exchanging what we need with the cultivators. This would be beneficial for our demon clan.

In a few words, she expressed her thoughts.

"What you said is simple. What if they truly have ill intentions"

The Bear Elder deliberately started trouble.

"That's easy. As long as humans go beyond the designated boundaries, we can kill them. We just need to keep good evidence so they can't find a reason to retaliate against our demon clan."

The fox-eyed ripple glanced at the bear elder, who froze in place. After a moment, he shook his body and broke free from the illusion ripple had created.

"You..."

The elder of the bear clan's face flushed red with anger. To be tripped up by a junior was too embarrassing for him.

"Xiong Kun, be quiet for a moment, we're discussing serious matters now!"

Guidi interrupted the patriarch of the Bear Clan's questioning and then looked at Ripples, asking:

Apart from these benefits, what else can the demon clan get

Besides the obvious benefits, this time it's an opportunity for our demon race to show our claws. At the very least, we need to make the human race aware that the demon race is not someone to be trifled with, not just a piece of meat on their plate, but a hot iron that will burn their mouths.

We need to make them fear us. With fear, they won't easily provoke us. This will give the demon clan time to grow stronger and maintain the balance. After all, if it comes to a final confrontation, it will ultimately boil down to a battle between high-end combat power.

With you sitting in command, our demon clan has nothing to fear. You alone can match three or five high-ranking human cultivators. However, the rest of the high-ranking cultivators will have to be dealt with by each clan's elders. Only a ninth-order great demon can withstand the attack of a human cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage. How many ninth-order great demons does each clan have

Of course, you might say we could overwhelm them with numbers, launching a beast tide to weaken the cultivators. But doing so would deplete our younger generation. Keep in mind that our demon race grows much slower than the human race.

They have matching cultivation techniques that can nurture a high-level cultivator within a thousand years. However, for our demon clan, a thousand years is only just past adolescence. How high can one's cultivation level reach

"Head-on confrontation with people is not beneficial to us, so why do we still do it"

The ripples calmly and straightforwardly laid out the weaknesses of the demon clan, causing all the elders to fall into deep thought for a moment.

According to Bai Yaotou's words, aren't we going to have to make concessions

An elder of the Tiger Clan said with some displeasure.

"This is not a concession, it's a win-win situation. It's about accumulating strength. The demon race isn't static; there will always be a day when they surpass humanity."

Liàn yī immediately shouted, "Get energized!"

Gui Di nodded in satisfaction after listening to Lian Yi's words, and decided to let Lian Yi be responsible for communicating with the human race during this secret realm opening.

This time, none of the elders objected. The Fox Clan is recognized by all demon races as the most intelligent and cunning. Moreover, this suggestion was put forward by Bai Yaotou, a young lady from the Fox Clan. It would be best for her to take charge.

Liri did not refuse the task, and after returning to her tribe, she mobilized several elders and started preparing systematically.

The rabbit-clan demon cultivator stationed outside the soon-to-open secret realm is responsible for reporting daily to Lianyi on the progress of the realm's opening. After ten days, Lianyi confirmed that the highest cultivation level capable of entering this secret realm is the Nascent Soul stage.

At the same time that Lian Yi let out a sigh of relief, he immediately contacted the Human race and informed them about the cultivation restriction for entering the secret realm. The two sides had already confirmed the number of people entering before this. On the Human race's side, there were only one thousand entry slots available, and the accompanying powerful figures could not exceed one hundred. This was the limit that the Demon Race could accommodate.

Actually, there could be more, but for the safety of the demon clan, Lianyi compressed the number and demarcated specific territories. Traps were set up in any areas that exceeded those boundaries.

These traps were set up jointly by various demon clans. The fox clan laid down an illusionary array orchestrated by Ripple. Anyone who dares to step beyond the Lei Chi will surely face dire consequences.

After receiving the reply from the demon clan, the human clan immediately began to determine the participants. Many Nascent Soul cultivators were cultivated by various sects. Large sects like Yuntian Sect had no shortage of Nascent Soul cultivators.

But they also deliberately left some spots for disciples at the peak of the Yuan Ying stage in their sect, saying that maybe they could make a breakthrough in the secret realm and directly enter the Huashen stage. That's the strength of the sect!er, Du. The old butler wore a worried expression. Upon seeing Lianyi, however, his face brightened and he forced a smile, saying:"Young master, you're back. How long will you be staying at home this t...
