It's unlike the Jiuyu Commerce Alliance in the Star Ruins Realm.

After some contemplation, Jiang Shu shared all the doubts he encountered while comprehending the Dao Origin over recent days and sought advice from the Supreme Sect Leader.

With the Supreme Sect Leader's guidance, clarity gradually emerged in his mind, yielding significant insights.

After roughly half a day had passed, resolving Jiang Shu's confusion in cultivation, the Supreme Sect Leader's expression became solemn as he broached the key topic:

"There is another major matter concerning you."

Seeing the other's attitude so serious, Jiang Shu's expression involuntarily became grave, nodding in acknowledgment:

"I am unaware of what has occurred, and I humbly request the Sect Leader's guidance."

The Sect Leader spoke in a deep voice:

"In the Ancient Demon Sect Relics, you slew the two demon race princes, Heavenly Dragon and Heavenly Phoenix. This news has already been communicated within the demon race through certain channels."

"Heavenly Dragon and Heavenly Phoenix are direct descendants of some of the demon venerables in the Demon Domain. Now those two demon venerables have descended into the Endless Sea, announcing that if our True Martial Sect hands you over, they might refrain from acting directly but instead leave it to the demon monarchs to confront us."

"This news has spread, and under immense pressure, naturally some of the higher-ups or ordinary cultivators might have their thoughts. Hence, in the coming days, you should remain within the sect, claiming the pretext of needing to stabilize after breaking through realms through cultivation."

"Do not concern yourself with the storms outside. Once your strength has further advanced, then consider heading to the Endless Sea."

Upon hearing that the news of Heavenly Dragon and Heavenly Phoenix's deaths was leaked, Jiang Shu had already foreseen this outcome and was not surprised.

Although the Eight Great Sects are closely allied, internally they're not unbreakable, so leaks are rather normal.

Moreover, after leaving the Ancient Demon Sect Relics, Jiang Shu heroically faced Daoist Monarch Xuan Ming's attack, which was extraordinarily impressive.

The Demon Sect surely could deduce something.

This news, from the beginning, was something he never intended to conceal. What he did not anticipate was the Demon Sect's rapid methods. They tore down the barriers outside the Cang Mang Domain, intending to bring the demon venerables directly into play.

With a calm expression, Jiang Shu smiled, showing slight indifference, and said:

"Back at the relics, there were many eyes and ears. It was inevitable that the demon race would eventually discover the cause of the Heavenly Dragon and Heavenly Phoenix's deaths. Since I've acted, there's no turning back."

"Besides, even if the Demon Sect and the demon race gained a major victory in the Ancient Demon Sect Relics, wouldn't they stage a full invasion?"

"This is a grand event, it is inevitable."

The Supreme Sect Leader slightly nodded and said:

"Yes, given that those top-tier demon race experts are now within the Endless Sea, various sect Daoist Venerables naturally keep constant watch, making it unlikely for them to act independently on short notice."

"However, you must exercise caution. You are at the Vientiane Realm Early Stage in cultivation, and if you were to face the demon monarchs, there remains a certain disparity."

"Yes, Sect Leader, rest assured, I will remember."

Nodding in acknowledgment of the advice, Jiang Shu shifted the topic, inquiring:

"Sect Leader, what of the Beast Taming Sect..."

The Beast Taming Sect's covert dealings and collaboration with the demon race can essentially be confirmed, yet there is still no targeted action from the major sects, leaving Jiang Shu quite puzzled.

"The matter of the Beast Taming Sect is considerably complicated. Should it be brought to light, it would trigger turmoil across the Cang Mang Domain."

Upon mentioning the Beast Taming Sect, a faint dark shadow also surfaced on the otherwise calm face of the Supreme Sect Leader, and his tone became notably somber:

"With external threats encroaching, the Endless Sea's battlefield remains tense. Regardless of any upheaval, it would prompt a reaction that affects the whole."

As he spoke, the Supreme Sect Leader's demeanor abruptly turned stern, exuding authority:

"Nonetheless, there is no need to worry about the Beast Taming Sect suddenly sacrificing their sect to rebel. Following the relic event, the sect leaders had discrete discussions, laying the groundwork. Now, the Beast Taming Sect is held by its lifeline. Humph, any attempt to instigate trouble is beyond their reach!"

Jiang Shu silently listened beside him, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

No wonder he's a sect leader; he effortlessly dissolves such thorny troubles invisibly.

Since the concern is dispelled, Jiang Shu's next steps can be conveniently initiated.

Subsequently, Jiang Shu set aside his thoughts and shared with the Supreme Sect Leader his intention to head to the Endless Sea for battle.

Unsurprisingly, his request met immediate opposition from the Sect Leader.

Given the current situation in the Endless Sea, coupled with Jiang Shu's identity as an enemy of the demon race, his appearance there would likely incite unrest throughout the demon race, possibly prompting even the demon venerables entrenched in the Endless Sea to intervene personally!

If that were to happen, even with ten lives, Jiang Shu wouldn't suffice against the demon race's wrath.

After hearing the Sect Leader's stance, Jiang Shu couldn't help but let out a bitter smile, feeling quite helpless.

In truth, his intentions were calculated for a reason, and there was another factor at play.

With his ability of Two Realms Shuttle, he has enough confidence to avoid being surrounded or slain by the demon race.

Moreover, what he hadn't disclosed was that the primary purpose of visiting the Endless Sea this time was to revisit Thunder Sound Island's Wenxian Palace!

In Wenxian Palace, the time flow is 365 to 1, making it ideal for intensive cultivation.

Additionally, the Artifact Spirit elder is there, providing him the best cultivation guidance!

Wenxian Palace is undoubtedly the best place for swift cultivation enhancement.

Furthermore, knowing Jiang Shu is within True Martial Sect, the demon race wouldn't rest idly. It might even resort to madness, gathering forces across the sea to directly attack the sect for vengeance against the Heavenly Dragon and Heavenly Phoenix.

Jiang Shu, as Deputy Sect Master, having long received care from Lord Zi Ji and the Supreme Sect Leader, could hardly let the sect be subjected to the demon race's fury, putting fellow juniors and disciples in danger. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Therefore, he couldn't stay any longer in True Martial Sect but must depart, and in a highly noticeable manner!

Only by diverting the demon race's attention can the sect avoid potential threats.

As for subsequent matters, things would become much simpler.

Given the demon race's mobilization, the main base in Demon Domain would be unprecedentedly vulnerable internally.

Jiang Shu had already resolved to, after finishing training in Wenxian Palace, head directly to the Demon Domain and infiltrate enemy lines.

This not only refines his strength but also distracts the demon race's attention, thereby alleviating pressure on the Endless Sea battlefield, achieving two objectives.

More importantly, within the Demon Domain, he can freely use the Two Realms Shuttle ability, always ensuring his safety.

Compared to using it in the Endless Sea, exposing his identity, the Demon Domain offers greater maneuvering space.

Having concealed part of his plan, Jiang Shu explained his strategy to bypass the Endless Sea and infiltrate the Demon Domain. The Supreme Sect Leader's brows furrowed deeply.

At this moment, even he couldn't help but admire Jiang Shu's boldness, and upon deeper consideration, the plan seemed quite rational, offering the Eight Great Sects potential breakthrough opportunities.

After pondering, the Sect Leader cast a deep gaze towards Jiang Shu, seemingly attempting to see through him entirely, and after a while, he finally nodded in agreement with Jiang Shu's proposal.

"So be it. You are fortunate in your endeavors, Jiang Shu. Since your mind is set, I will no longer deter you."

"But remember one thing: you bear the hope of prosperity for our True Martial Sect. Always prioritize safeguarding yourself, no matter where you are, never daringly risk it!"

With that, the Supreme Sect Leader extended his right hand, and Spirit Light suddenly surged from his palm, revealing three Jade Talismans enveloped in deep mysterious aura.

"These three Sky-controlling Talismans are personally refined by myself, containing the Power of Great Dao of Space. Even if a Mixed Cave Realm Daoist Venerable uses full force, they can hold off for a while, and I can sense it and assist!"

"In future encounters with insurmountable dangers, activate them as a safeguard."

Hearing this, Jiang Shu's eyes flashed with waves of emotion, reaching out to receive the three Jade Talismans with immense solemnity, carefully tucking them into the storage bag at his waist.

According to the Supreme Sect Leader's description, the power of these Jade Talismans was no less formidable than the Dao Artifact he currently possessed, possibly exceeding it.

Protective Jade Talismans capable of contending against a Mixed Cave Realm Daoist Venerable are of invaluable worth.

This clearly indicates the esteemed place Jiang Shu holds in the Supreme Sect Leader's estimation.

"Jiang Shu, thank you, Sect Leader, for granting this treasure!"
