After a long moment of silence, someone in the crowd nervously asked, "What do you mean when you say we are not prepared to face the demons? Are you saying that we would lose in an all-out war against the Demonic Realm?"
"That's correct," Yuan answered in a loud and clear voice, instantly dumbfounding countless people present.
He continued in a grave tone, "That is precisely what I am trying to say. If the Nine Heavens were to clash against the Demonic Realm in a full-scale war, we would be completely at their mercy."
"There's no way!"
"How is that possible?!"
Yuan then explained, "Time flows much faster in the Demonic Realm than it does in the Nine Heavens, and a single year there is equivalent to roughly a single day here."
"This means that, in terms of cultivation, they have already surpassed us by an unimaginable margin."
