According to the intelligence we had previously gathered, after the Holy Realm was shattered by that terrifying blade, Tianbao City was shrouded in mist within a few days.

It seems to have entered a state where only entry is allowed and no exit is permitted, but this is limited to a radius of 100 miles around Tianbao City.

But this place is still 300 li away from Tianbao City.

For some reason, a large fog also appeared.

Furthermore, there seems to be a large array separating this place. You Jiu just forcibly passed through this array in the form of a Yin God at the Dao Integration stage.

But Lin Jinglong is a living, breathing human being.

It's not impossible to get past this barrier.

However, this will inevitably cause violent fluctuations in the formation, and may even cause it to break, given the unclear situation.

Lin Jinglong chose to temporarily abandon the pursuit of You Jiu.

Instead, he remained outside the great formation, concealing his presence and unleashing his divine sense to try and find out who had set up the formation.

It didn't take long.

The fluctuations caused by You Jiu crossing the great formation.

This attracted the people who had set up the grand formation.

However, the person in the lead was a blond, blue-eyed middle-aged man from another region, dressed in a well-tailored gray suit. After arriving, he scratched his head.

"Did someone just break through? That doesn't make sense. If someone had broken through, the fluctuations shouldn't be so weak."

"Mr. Kawakami, is your Shadow Formation really reliable?"

Behind the blond, blue-eyed man.

Soon a short old man dressed in samurai attire, wearing a straw hat, and with a samurai sword at his waist appeared.

He is clearly a martial artist from Japan.

This person was at a higher level than the blond, blue-eyed man, having reached the level of the Vajra Martial Emperor.

This Japanese martial artist named Kawakami is holding a compass in his hand.

"Someone did manage to get through, but it was more like a ghost without a body. It was quite powerful, but it had nothing to do with our plans, so it's best not to provoke it."

The blond man was clearly somewhat displeased.

Although he was only a high-level Martial Emperor.

However, he reprimanded Kawakami, who was in the Vajra Realm.

"Lord Hades has already said that once this area is surrounded by us, the scattered resources of the Holy Land will all be the harvest of our Supernatural Federation. Letting outsiders in will inevitably bring us losses."

“Harry, I told you, it’s just a ghost. What it wants is different from what we want.”

"Oh? What do you think that ghost wants?"

The blond man, whose real name is Harry, was very curious.

Kawakami chuckled sinisterly.

"That kind of thing needs incense offerings, just like your Lord Hades needs the faith of the Superpower Federation and the people under his rule. It's a power from the heart, and what he pursues is different from ours!"

"I see."

Harry looked enlightened.

I'll accept Kawakami's explanation for now.

A glint of light appeared in Kawakami's eyes beneath his straw hat.

What he said was all true, but there was another reason why he didn't investigate You Jiu, who had broken in: he sensed through the Shadowfall Array that the intruder was very strong.

After all, if one's strength is weak...

How could one easily pass through one's own Shadow Formation?

You should know that this ninth-order formation is specifically designed to attack the soul; whoever enters will be skinned alive.

Unless one's strength far surpasses that of a Celestial Martial Emperor, or even greater, one cannot disregard his grand formation.

Therefore, why should Kawakami engage in a head-on confrontation with such a formidable enemy?

All we need to do is fool Harry, the representative of the Federation of Superpowers.

Lin Jinglong, who was hiding in the shadows.

Listening to their conversation, I finally understood what was going on here.

"It seems that after the Holy Realm was shattered, it was scattered throughout the southern border. Although Tianbao City is the main core area, there are also some residual fragments that have fallen to more distant places. The mountain forest ahead is also scattered with the ruins of the Holy Realm."

"And it has also been secretly controlled by the Federation of Superpowers."

"That Hades, the god of the underworld, is also coveting the sacred land of Great Xia."

Lin Jinglong had also had some dealings with this Hades of the Superpower Federation. His three-headed hellhound, Kerr, and the heir of the divine family that Kerr represented had both died at his hands.

Lin Jinglong's figure appeared silently behind the two.

They were about to retreat when they suddenly felt a chill down their spines and their steps became stiff.

They all turned around in surprise.

I saw a young and handsome face.

When the Japanese martial emperor Kawakami saw Lin Jinglong, his eyes flickered, because he sensed a dangerous aura emanating from Lin Jinglong.

Harry, whose strength was relatively weak, watched him warily.

"Kawakami, could it be that your senses have failed, and no one has successfully broken into the formation, but has instead hidden in the shadows to gather intelligence on us?"

He realized that his conversation with Kawakami had revealed some inside information, allowing the hidden martial artist to obtain intelligence.

A fierce glint appeared in his eyes.

It seems they intend to silence Lin Jinglong.

Kawakami gave a wry smile and said to the blond man beside him, "Harry, haven't you considered another possibility?"

What are the possibilities?

"Was the ghost that broke into the formation being chased by this person, which is why it accidentally entered the Shadowfall Formation?"

Harry looked Lin Jinglong up and down.

He shook his head repeatedly.

"This guy is at least ten years younger than me, how could he possibly be so strong?"
