461: Chapter 461 Kam Enters the Demon Realm
"General Li, is this the entrance to the Red Flame Demon Realm?"
Several people stood before a passage.
The passage was not large, only wide enough for a single bus to pass through.
"Reporting to the Palace Master, this is the Red Flame Entrance. Since it descended three years ago, it has remained peaceful and without incident."
"From the day it was first discovered until now, the size of the entrance has hardly changed. Currently, the location of the entrance on the Demon Realm's side changes every four hours. Compared to three years ago, the interval has only increased by half an hour."
Xiao Weiqing raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. If what Li Wen said was true, then this entrance was quite safe.
Yes, safe.
Xiao Weiqing was no stranger to Demon Realm Entrances. An Eighth Realm Expert certainly couldn't enter through an entrance of this scale, and the high frequency of the location refresh significantly reduced the risks.
The Demon Realm's area was much larger than Blue Star's. With the entrance appearing in the Demon Realm for only four hours, it would likely change locations again before it could even be discovered.
"Cam, can you enter a passage like this?"
Cam nodded. "I can. The Mechanical Race is different from the Human Race and the Yao Race. As long as I haven't entered the Star Lord Realm, such changes to the entrance have no effect on me."
Cam's meaning was simple: even if the entrance only allowed the Sixth Realm to pass, Cam could still get through.
Xiao Weiqing nodded, making a mental note of this.
"Has your Mechanical Army arrived?"
"Soon. Thirty minutes at most."
When the two left the Xuanwu Temple yesterday, Xiao Weiqing had Cam order the Mechanical Army to infiltrate the Vermilion Bird Empire. They were currently rushing toward the Red Flame Demon Realm Entrance.
The group waited.
After a short while, a Mechanical Army of nearly a thousand arrived.
Among them were dozens comparable to Eighth Realm Powerhouses, while the rest were comparable to the Seventh Realm.
Such a lineup gave Palace Master Palace Master Yun Shu quite a shock.
Because of this,
Palace Master Palace Master Yun Shu pulled Xiao Weiqing to the side.
"Xiao Weiqing, are you really comfortable letting Cam go to the Demon Realm?"
"Does the Palace Master have some concerns?"
Palace Master Palace Master Yun Shu said, "The idea of driving the wolf to swallow the tiger is good, but I fear Cam will turn into a lion—a powerful male lion."
Hearing this,
Xiao Weiqing understood; he knew what Palace Master Palace Master Yun Shu meant.
As the greatest threat to the Blue Star Civilization, the Yao Race was undeniably powerful.
However, because the Yao Race was also at war with the Spirit Beast civilization, coupled with their contempt for Blue Star and the internal schemes within the Yao Race, the humans had been granted a moment to breathe.
Palace Master Palace Master Yun Shu feared that once Cam entered the Yao Race's territory without suppression, he would quickly become an existence no weaker than any Yao Race tribe.
Furthermore,
Palace Master Palace Master Yun Shu believed that if the Demon God did not intervene, the Yao Race might even be wiped out by Cam.
This was because the entire Mechanical Army followed Cam's orders implicitly and did not fear death. They were also simple to manufacture, unlike the Blue Star Civilization, which had to exert immense effort to Cultivate a single Powerhouse. Even the Yao Race's Bloodline cultivation model was far inferior.
"Palace Master,"
"Rest assured, I will periodically enter the Demon Realm to keep an eye on him. Letting him enter the Demon Realm to gather intelligence for Blue Star as a vanguard force is for the best; we cannot keep defending passively."
In fact, one thing Xiao Weiqing didn't mention was that since he had already entered the Ninth Realm, he needed to find time to visit the Star Dome again after returning to the Azure Dragon Divine Hall and entering that door to resolve his lingering concerns.
The Ninth Realm only allowed him to protect himself; only by breaking through to the Star Lord Realm could Xiao Weiqing truly feel at ease.
During the period when Xiao Weiqing would be inside the Star Dome, Blue Star would once again be like before, with no Ninth Realm guardian.
If another demigod invasion occurred, the world might very well be lost.
Therefore, he needed someone to draw attention away from Blue Star. Especially if the Mechanical Race appeared within the Yao Race, the Yao Race would surely not turn a blind eye.
"That may be true, but from what you said before, the speed at which Cam develops his Mechanical Army is too fast."
Xiao Weiqing nodded. "That is true. However, no matter how many mechanical troops there are, as long as I hold Cam's life and death in my hands, it will be fine."
Palace Master Palace Master Yun Shu nodded slightly. Given Xiao Weiqing's Cultivation speed, she wouldn't be surprised if he reached the Star Lord Realm in another half a year.
By then,
no matter how many mechanical troops there were, they would be useless.
Having persuaded Palace Master Palace Master Yun Shu,
Xiao Weiqing instructed Cam, "Enter the Yao Race, develop your own power, and simultaneously weaken the Yao Race's strength. Are there any problems?"
"No problem,"
Cam said. Even if Xiao Weiqing hadn't said it, he would have done so. This was the underlying genetic code setting of all life.
"Good. You cooperate with me. If you can wipe out the Yao Race, I will restore your freedom."
Cam's cold expression flickered slightly, and he said with great surprise:
"Really?"
"Of course. I swear it by the gods of Blue Star,"
Xiao Weiqing said without hesitation.
Cam glanced at Xiao Weiqing, his face returning to its cold indifference as he said flatly:
"Your Blue Star has no gods."
As someone with computational power comparable to Artificial Intelligence, Cam was ninety-nine percent certain the man before him was lying.
Xiao Weiqing was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and patted Cam's shoulder. "Don't worry about such details."
"Details determine success or failure. It was precisely because I ignored the details that I was defeated by you," Cam retorted.
If he had known that Xiao Weiqing had already entered the Ninth Realm and possessed such strength, he would have fled the moment Xiao Weiqing entered the Xuanwu Palace.
He would have found a place with no people and developed silently.
Cam believed that as long as he was given two years—no, one year would be enough.
By then,
possessing the mechanical heart, he could continuously produce a Mechanical Army comparable to the Seventh and Eighth Realms. He could completely rely on his Mechanical Army to exhaust the vital forces of both Blue Star and the Yao Race.
Whether it was the Blue Star Human Race or the Yao Race, neither would be his match.
Furthermore,
he could use the World Passages to invade other civilizations in the Incubation Ground. One day, he would be able to evolve his mechanical heart to a star-grade and become a Star Lord Realm expert.
However,
there are no 'ifs'. One could only say that for the past six months, things had gone too smoothly for him.
Some things cannot be reflected by surface-level numbers.
For example, human cunning, deviousness, and treachery.
Without saying more,
he watched as Cam led his Mechanical Army into the Red Flame Entrance.
Xiao Weiqing believed that Cam would definitely give the Yao Race a run for their money.
"Then let us go,"
Palace Master Palace Master Yun Shu said.
Xiao Weiqing shook his head. "Wait a bit longer. We can't leave yet."
"Why?"
"We have to wait for the entrance on the Demon Realm's side to change locations."
Palace Master Palace Master Yun Shu nodded, understanding Xiao Weiqing's meaning. He likely feared that Cam would go back on his word and return to Blue Star.
However, such a possibility was almost non-existent.
Doing so would only trigger Xiao Weiqing's killing intent.
In fact,
given Cam's current situation, going to the Demon Realm was the most appropriate choice.
Three hours later.
General Li Wen came to report.
"Palace Master, Mr. Xiao, the entrance location on the other side has switched."
