However, Jared had come across a number of demons, including prominent ones like Baal, Hadad, and Whalreth.
They were not as terrible as their reputation suggested them to be..
Hearing Jared’s question, the elderly man wryly smiled. “How am I to know why the Celestial Battle began and who started it? Still, us demons aren’t as horrible as the people make us out to be. No matter which race, there are always good people and rotten apples. Are you saying that human cultivators are all saints? There are even more bad people within human cultivators.
Hence, not all races were adversaries of us demons during the Celestial Battle; many stood by our side. This was the root cause of internal conflicts within other races. Historically, on this very battlefield, the drakes fought alongside us, alongside a substantial contingent of the beast race and human immortals.
The Celestial Battle wasn’t as others portrayed it, a war solely against the demons; it was a tumultuous and chaotic conflict. To my knowledge, your people, the Draconians, also experienced internal strife and significant losses during that period.
The battle from that era had repercussions across tens of thousands of realms, and I can’t fathom how many worlds fell during that tumultuous period. The Ethereal Realm is just one realm among many, and I believe you are well aware of the vastness of the universe. There isn’t a clear demarcation between good and bad, or right and wrong. In the end, these distinctions often boil down to variations in our perspectives and comprehension.”
The elderly man had a sorrowful look on his face when he talked about the battle of the past.
Jared was quiet after hearing him. The elderly man’s words had made Jared relearn what the Celestial Battle had really been about.
Perhaps the Celestial Battle had only been an opportunity, a means for certain individuals to rearrange the realms as they saw fit, with demons unwittingly serving as pawns in their grand scheme.
After a moment of contemplation, Jared nodded. “All right, I’ll bring them both over.”
Jared then turned to leave, his body glowing. After walking past the glowing barrier, he found that the others were still quietly cultivating.
Moving forward, he gently patted Dalton and Rosetta. The two woke with a start, but they sighed in relief when they realized it was just Jared.
“Mr. Chance, it’s simply too comfortable to cultivate here, so I didn’t realize we’ve stopped. We’re really sorry, we’ll leave now.”
Dalton thought that Jared had come back for them because the two of them had stopped to cultivate here without realizing it.
“It’s fine. I just want to bring you both to a place while the others are cultivating,” Jared clarified. Sure enough, Dalton turned to find the others still soaked in the water, as still as statues.
“Mr. Chance, where are you taking us to?” Rosetta asked.
“Come with me. You’ll know once we reach there.”
With that, Jared led the way, asking Dalton and Rosetta to follow him. In no time, Jared had gone past the spatial dimension and guided Dalton and Rosetta to the elderly man.
When the two saw the elderly man’s sudden appearance and the light array, they were stunned in place.
“Sir, I’ve brought them both,” Jared said.
“Mr. Chance, what are you doing?” Dalton asked, confused.
“You don’t need to be afraid. This is one of your blood demon elders, though he was sealed here during the Celestial Battle. The Bloodsoul Orb you took was this man’s elixir field. I’ve brought you two here because he wants to impart you knowledge of the pure blood demon technique. That way, you won’t suffer from bloodlust while cultivating the blood demon technique,” Jared explained.
Upon hearing that the elderly man before them was a senior of the blood demons, they hastily kneeled before him in respect.
