If we ignore it and let this go on, it's highly likely that the entire world will undergo a grotesque transformation, becoming a Mysterious Domain, a realm of flesh and blood.
By then, this place will have completely become a space of existence for sinister demons, where monks struggle to move, even sustaining a battle poses a problem, and one could be contaminated by mere carelessness.
If this continued to spread outward, even if the Taoist Schools didn't directly confront the sinister demons head-on, the front lines would keep expanding until the entire Inner Realm was polluted.
This would be nothing short of suicide!
That's why, even though there's no direct war between monks and sinister demons, there are various front-line tasks that are incredibly pressing on manpower.
Fortunately, the number of sinister demons is exceedingly rare, otherwise, the Shen Hong would certainly not have stood until today.
