After gaining a glimmer of understanding, Lin Xuan had already made a decision in his heart.

He doesn't plan to return to the Demon Suppression Division, at least not for the time being. The ten kingdoms of the human race are divided into the lower three kingdoms, the middle three kingdoms, and the upper three kingdoms.

And the ancient kingdom with the highest status.

The Great Zhou Dynasty was merely one of the three lower kingdoms.

Among the ten human kingdoms, their strength ranks last.

Lin Xuan wanted to go out and see the splendor of the various human kingdoms in this ancient era.

However, before that, he needs to find a place to cultivate his skills before deciding where to go next.

only!

Sometimes, things don't go the way he wants.

Shortly after he entered Cangwu City, following the flow of people coming and going through the city gate.

Inside a rather unremarkable mansion in the city, in one of the dark rooms, a stone disc about a meter in size, resembling a compass, suddenly emitted a dazzling light.

Then, the light condensed into a curtain of light above the compass.

As the light screen rippled like water, a picture gradually emerged.

If Lin Xuan were here at this moment, he would be astonished. The scene appearing on the light screen was actually what he saw after entering Cangwu City.

At the edge of the screen, there is also a list of information.

It was about his identity information.

“Eh…it seems that one of our missing demon-slaying guards from the Demon Suppression Division has come to Cangwu City.”

The door was pushed open, and a man dressed in a crimson battle robe with eyes as cold as ice walked in. He stared at the images and information on the screen, frowned and muttered to himself: "Lin Xuan disappeared without a trace in the Yunshan mining area several months ago."

It is suspected to be related to the ruins of the ancient Taichu Dao Palace.

It hasn't been long since the Taichu Dao Palace's mountain gate collapsed, and he's already arrived in Cangwu City. Moreover, his appearance and physique don't match the information provided.

Was he disguised, or did someone steal his identity token?

The man in the crimson battle robe had a solemn expression, and his eyes gleamed with a sharp light. With a wave of his hand, a flash of spiritual light appeared.

The compass-like stone disc immediately lost its light and fell silent.

"This Lin Xuan is connected to the ruins of the Taichu Dao Palace. It is very likely that he entered the ruins of the Taichu Dao Palace and obtained the inheritance of the Taichu Dao Palace. We must find out the truth."

The man muttered to himself and left the room.

The Taichu Dao Palace is an ancient and powerful sect, and countless people are eyeing its mountain gate.

Among the sects outside the realm, countless people have risked entering the Great Zhou Dynasty for the sake of the ruins of the Primordial Dao Palace.

The Demon Suppression Division was fully aware of these matters.

Now that Lin Xuan is connected to the ruins of the Taichu Dao Palace and has come to Cangwu City, he naturally wants to find out the truth.

At this moment, Lin Xuan was unaware that he had originally wanted to keep a low profile and had deliberately changed his appearance and physique.

Unbeknownst to them, their whereabouts had been exposed.

All of this was due to the identity token of the Demon Suppression Division's Demon Slayer Guard that he always carried on his person.

This small oversight is about to disrupt his entire plan.

After entering the city, Lin Xuan first strolled around the city, and then spent some gold and silver to rent a courtyard to live in.

He planned to stay in Cangwu City for about a month to fully consolidate his cultivation before leaving the Great Zhou Dynasty to explore the outside world.

Beyond the Great Zhou, there are not only the other nine of the ten human kingdoms.

There are also countless sects and forces.

It must be much more exciting than within the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

As time passed, Lin Xuan's life in the ancient era entered a period of peace.

However, this caused quite a stir in later generations.

...

On this day, at Hangu Pass.

In the courtyard where Lin Xuan lived, Lin Xuan, who had just returned from the ancient era, got up and stretched his body. As soon as he stepped out of the room, Tie Dachui's voice came from outside the courtyard: "My lord... something has happened, the evil spirits have seized the pass."

Whoosh!

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan's pupils narrowed to a single point.

He dashed out of the courtyard like a ghost.

"Big Hammer, what's going on? Why did the evil spirits suddenly close the gate?" Lin Xuan asked in a deep voice, looking at Tie Dachui running towards him.

"I don't know. They suddenly blocked the gate this morning, but the first ones to arrive were all powerful demons at the Sorrow level."

Iron Hammer said in a deep voice, "As for their main army, they are still behind and haven't arrived yet."

However, this time it was clear that they came with ill intentions. There were quite a few powerful individuals among them, with at least a thousand demonic beings at the level of the Wounded Realm. One of them was particularly terrifying.

We suspect they have already reached the level of a near-general…

“I can already sense it.”

In Lin Xuan's eyes, the killing intent was like a knife.

Just now, he had sensed a soaring power erupting outside the city.

He recognized that aura; it was one of the seven half-step generals he had sensed in the floating city deep within the demonic territory.

Even such an old thing has been mobilized; it seems the evil spirits are serious this time.

However, Lin Xuan was puzzled as to why the demons would suddenly close the gate.

There must be some hidden story behind this.

"Let's go take a look at the city wall."

Lin Xuan said in a deep voice that he was not afraid. After all, the entire Hangu Pass was covered by a great formation, so what if a half-step general-level demon came?

It's not enough to break through his Primordial Star River Formation.

Unless, all seven half-step general-level demons come.

As soon as Lin Xuan finished speaking, he vanished from his spot, streaking across the sky like a streak of light. When he reappeared, he was already on the city wall of Hangu Pass.

Waaaaah...

Knock knock knock!

At this moment, the war horns had sounded, and the sound of war drums resounded throughout the entire Hangu Pass.
