Chapter 259 A match made in heaven?
"wait for me?"
Xu Changshou was completely confused.
A family that has existed for a hundred thousand years actually said it would wait for him.
This is so outrageous that even storytellers wouldn't dare to say that.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, please explain clearly why you are waiting for me?" Xu Changshou asked.
"I……"
Jiang Rou's pretty face suddenly turned red.
He hesitated for a long time and didn't say a word.
Xu Changshou: "Fellow Daoist, is there any unspeakable suffering?"
Jiang Rou secretly glanced at Xu Changshou, then quickly lowered her head.
He said in a very low voice: "Friend Xu, to be honest, my Jiang family is at the end of its rope, and I need you to help my family overcome the difficulties."
"I……"
Xu Changshou smiled bitterly: "Your family has existed for hundreds of thousands of years and is an ancient clan. I am just a small foundation-building cultivator. How can I help you?"
Jiang Rou bit her lip and said, "As long as you are willing, you can help our clan a lot."
"Okay, you tell me what you want me to do, but let me be frank, I will never do anything dangerous or costly." Xu Changshou said seriously.
Jiang Rou smiled: "Don't worry, fellow Daoist, there is absolutely no danger at all. It is definitely within your ability."
Xu Changshou: "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Jiang Rou gathered her thoughts and spoke slowly, "One hundred thousand years ago, my Jiang family was the largest family in the Eastern Cultivation Realm, and our ancestor, Jiang Wuliang, was the undisputed leader of the entire Eastern Cultivation Realm. At that time, demonic cultivators were rampant, and human cultivators suffered greatly."
"To resist the demon race, my entire Jiang family fought against them. Our ancestor even used his supreme magical power to seal the Demon Fairy Corridor, isolating countless demon cultivators in another world."
"But the demon cultivators in that world are unwilling to be imprisoned and are constantly thinking about breaking through the formation of the Demon Immortal Corridor."
"Under no other circumstances, the ancestor had to leave behind a bloodline to guard the center of the Demon Fairy Corridor. My clan is this bloodline, and our clan's mission is to protect the center of the Demon Fairy Corridor."
"If there's no one guarding the core of the Demon Fairy Corridor, the Demon Cultivation Corridor will soon be breached by the demons. At that time, the Eastern Cultivation World will be crushed by the iron hooves of countless demon cultivators. The human race's cultivation civilization in the Eastern Cultivation World will cease to exist, and we humans will become food for the demons, or even their pets."
"That's it..."
After hearing Jiang Rou's words, Xu Changshou frowned deeply.
One hundred thousand years ago, Jiang Wuliang led the human cultivators to resist the demon clan and sealed the Demon Fairy Corridor. This was known to everyone in the Dongyu cultivation world.
What Jiang Rou said later, that Jiang Wuliang left a bloodline to guard the heart of the formation, was a secret. There was no such rumor in the Dongyu cultivation world.
Of course, this kind of thing must not be known to outsiders. If there are evil cultivators who covet the resources left by Jiang Wuliang and destroy the Jiang family bloodline, then everything will be over.
With the current strength of the Dongyu immortal cultivation world, it is impossible to stop the demon army no matter what.
Just as Jiang Rou said, once the formation of the Demon Fairy Corridor is destroyed, it will be an unprecedented catastrophe for the entire human cultivation world.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, do you understand the strength of the demon race?" Xu Changshou asked.
Jiang Rou said with a heavy face, "The demon race in that world is very strong."
"How strong?"
Jiang Rou: "According to my observation, there are at least hundreds of powerful people at the Earth Demon King level, and thousands of demon cultivators at the Xuan-level Great Demon level."
"what!!!"
Xu Changshou was shocked.
Hundreds of earth demon kings and thousands of Xuan-level demons, what does that mean?
You should know that a demon cultivator at the Earth Demon King level is equivalent to a human Yuanying cultivator.
The total number of Nascent Soul cultivators in the five major sects is no more than six.
They are:
The Xuanyang Patriarch of the Green Immortal Sect.
Long Yangzi and Mei Lan, a couple from Hehuanmen.
Master Lu of Wanchui Gate.
Mo Qianji, the ancestor of Mohism.
The old demon Wuzou from Wanxian Tower.
Xu Changshou didn't know how many Jindan cultivators there were in the Dongyu Immortal Cultivation World, but he knew that there were only fifteen Jindan cultivators in the Green Immortal Sect.
According to this calculation, the total number of Jindan cultivators from the five major sects will definitely not exceed one hundred, which is still less than the number of the other side's Earth Demon King.
What can we use to fight back?
At the foundation-building stage, although the demon race's physical bodies are stronger than humans', they can never defeat humans in a fight because human cultivators have magical weapons.
However, when the demon cultivators reach the Jindan realm, that is, the realm of the Xuan-level great demon, they will refine demon weapons and cultivate a certain part of their body into a magical weapon.
At this time, the combat effectiveness of the demon race and the human race will be on par again. The combat effectiveness of the Nascent Soul Realm against the Earth Demon King is almost the same.
Of course, because the human race has a higher IQ than the demon race, they also have formations, puppets, elixirs and other things that the demon race does not have.
Therefore, although they are equal in combat power, in reality, in a one-on-one situation, the demon cultivators are still no match for the human cultivators.
Human cultivators do have advantages over demon cultivators, but there are certain limits.
When one hundred earth demon kings deal with six human Nascent Soul cultivators, that little advantage is useless.
Just imagine, if a hundred earth demon kings and thousands of Xuan-level demons besieged the Dongyu Immortal Cultivation World, the consequences would be unimaginable.
If you want to prevent the demons from attacking, then it is important to defend the core of the Demon Fairy Corridor.
Thinking of this, Xu Changshou's face turned bitter: "Fellow Daoist Jiang, you are not asking me to help you guard the center of the formation, are you?"
"No."
"That's fine, that's fine."
Xu Changshou breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to stay here to guard the center of the formation.
Jiang Rou said: "Only the bloodline of my Jiang family can defend the center of the formation. Others are useless."
"My people have been guarding the formation for a hundred thousand years. Unfortunately, there are no males left in our clan, only a weak woman like me. If I can break through the Golden Core realm, I can guard the formation for another four hundred years. If I can't form a core, I can guard it for another two hundred years."
"Relying on myself alone is not a long-term solution. So, I came out of the secret realm and waited for my destined partner. Before I came here, I swore that the first man I met here would be my destined partner."
"You mean, I'm your destined one?"
After hearing this, Xu Changshou roughly understood what Jiang Rou meant.
The Jiang family's bloodline has died out, and she wants to find a partner to give birth to children to continue the Jiang family's bloodline.
"Every time the Demon Fairy Corridor opens, a hundred people enter. I happened to meet you. Doesn't it prove that we are destined to meet?" Jiang Rou said lightly, her clear eyes staring straight at Xu Changshou.
"Forehead……"
Xu Changshou's scalp tingled. "Fellow Daoist Jiang, that's what I said, but the problem is, I'm not ready yet."
Jiang Rou smiled lightly and said, "This is fate sent by heaven. Since I have met you, you are my ideal husband. This is a good match sent by heaven. What else can I prepare?"
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, this, this is not good. I... let me think about it..."
