"The central continent is creating the demons and sending their disciples here to 'solve' the problem, gaining heavenly merit and using it to increase their cultivation and talent. That's how the central continent has always been above the others," Xiang Yu explained.
[That's right,] the empress confirmed. [They're probably also using an immortal level treasure to siphon the qi from the other continents and concentrate it into their continent,] she added.
Xiang Yu thought to himself that if they could go to such lengths to maintain their power, they probably didn't want the other continents to develop strong and talented people. If that was the case, then Li Yao was probably going to be targeted.
