"Naturally, there is no problem." The many powerful cultivators, of course, understood the importance of the matter and readily agreed.

However, this affair could not be rushed.

There was no way to openly promote it; before recruiting a sufficiently strong faction, the matter had to be kept as secret as possible.

Otherwise, it would certainly attract the full attention of the Demon Cultivators.

It might even draw the gaze of yet mightier powers across the Cosmos.

Even among the Orthodoxy, many cared little for the so-called era of Demon Cultivators, yet they would surely care about what comes from outside the Cosmos.

They needed to seize the present, when the Demon Cultivators still believed themselves assured of victory, and secretly win over some of the strong ones.

Cultivator Shen Yu, hearing this, had no need to interfere too much.

This was the benefit of recruiting a group of capable individuals early; in many ways, these cultivators understood even better than he did, and could handle things more expertly.

As for him himself, his role was more as a driving force.

To steer power towards saving the world and towards obtaining the Gray Mist.

At this moment, Shen Yu suddenly changed the topic and spoke of other matters.

"I've already said before, if not for my appearance, the whole world would surely be destroyed. Considering this, the changes in the Heavenly Dao are likely to be far more than they seem at present."

"Indeed." Taihe Earth Immortal nodded slightly. "Though Demon Cultivators use people as resources, cruel and bloody, they are not fools. In this world, some regions have completely fallen into their hands; yet, they haven't massacred all inhabitants, but instead have their own system of control and management, focusing mainly on raising humans as stock. Thus, even if the Heavenly Dao falls entirely to the Demon Dao, humanity will not be so easily extinguished."

By now, his expression had turned grave.

He fully believed Cultivator Shen Yu's words: in the end, their world would witness the extinction of Human Dao.

After all, this was not something difficult to verify.

The changes in the Heavenly Dao are one aspect; another is that Shen Yu had made it clear that, should an opportunity arise in the future, he could take them to other worlds, to help Association members there.

But if so, just as Shen Yu said, the changes in the Heavenly Dao are by no means simple.

This brought immense pressure.

After all, it was the Heavenly Dao—a change that far exceeded their understanding.

"So, we must move quickly." Shen Yu nodded slightly, his expression also grave.

In his current state, he was somewhat like interstellar world Shen Yu at the beginning—without enough power or prestige in a short time, and unable to directly act in many matters, thus having to rely on others.

Yet, this world was not the same as that of interstellar world Shen Yu.

Human civilization here had not formed a unified collective.

Thus, Shen Yu clearly understood that there was still much he had to do.

The long journey ahead—he had only taken the very first step.

"We will return first." Taihe Earth Immortal was direct and decisive. Seeing matters settled here, he immediately prepared to leave. "Let us first contact several major Immortal Sects in secret. Then, we'll discuss warfare together."

"I will go along." Shen Yu also said, "I have a method to construct convenient roads linking many regions. This may unite people as one."

In this world, though cultivators had Teleportation Arrays, there was no way to create methods for connecting the many areas' pocket worlds.

It wasn't that cultivation could not achieve it.

It was simply due to this world's background.

Shen Yu had actually tried—in this world, space was extremely stable, far more so than the individual Planes of the Magic World; those deadly lands filled with surging Spiritual Energy were even harder to traverse via Teleportation. To use Magic to forge new pocket worlds and build passages would consume considerable Gray Mist.

Still, it was worthwhile.

First, use shared interests to unite as much force as possible within this world.

"Hopefully the changes in the Heavenly Dao will slow down." Shen Yu gazed down at the Zhenli Immortal Dynasty, murmuring to himself in his heart.

The next events, though complicated, did proceed much faster.

The Mingyun Immortal Sect publicly announced the news of the Demon Cultivators to the whole country.

Then, with the help of Shen Yu's junior sister, she firmly sat upon the throne.

Junior sister Qing Yue returned to her palace and, as she sat down in the emperor's seat, was entirely dazed.

In her understanding, her whole family had suffered calamity and escaped with difficulty; next, she should have been driven by bitter vengeance, to cultivate arduously. Centuries later, if she achieved the True Master realm, perhaps she could reclaim the Immortal Dynasty and save the people.

But in reality, in just a few days, her bitter enemies were already vanquished?

"Junior sister, these senior brothers and sisters of mine are more than enough to help you govern the Immortal Dynasty," Shen Yu told the dazed Qing Yue plainly, "however, I do have a few matters for which I'll need help from the Zhenli Immortal Dynasty."

"Senior brother, just speak. Whatever you ask, Qing Yue will do her best." Qing Yue snapped out of it and responded quickly.

She was clear in her heart that the reason she had been able to reclaim the Immortal Dynasty in such a short time was entirely thanks to Shen Yu.

Her senior brother's origins were extraordinary—even many Earth Immortals could be directed by him.

Not to mention a few matters—even if it were the entire Immortal Dynasty, now it seemed to Qing Yue that it was nothing serious.

"Good." Shen Yu nodded slightly. What he required were the most basic things for cultivation.

For example, low-tier Spirit Grass, Spirit Medicine, Cultivation Techniques, or other items needed by low-tier Qi Refining Cultivators.
