His gaze swept across the crowd, and seeing that no one showed obvious fear or hesitation, he nodded in satisfaction.
"According to the intelligence brought back by Yao Jinyang and others, there are no humanoid races in the world behind this 'door'. It is a middle-thousand world composed entirely of demonic beasts."
"In the initial assessment, since no highly intelligent beings were found, after clearing out the monsters that poured out of the 'gate', Yao Jinyang and others, together with a special forces company of 8,000 people from the mountain city, entered the gate to conduct preliminary reconnaissance."
"The result was that... there was a possible ancient demon inside the 'gate,' which almost led to the annihilation of Yao Jinyang and his team, and the 8,000-strong special forces company was also left inside forever."
Even though the martial artists present were all seasoned veterans of life and death, they were still deeply saddened upon hearing the full truth of the matter.
Eight thousand people...
No wonder Yao Jinyang and the others were on the verge of losing control that day. Normally, even in the most dangerous A-level "gate," such heavy casualties wouldn't occur if one didn't venture in recklessly.
That was an elite team of over sixty powerful experts from the Mountain and Sea realms.
He sighed inwardly before sinking.
However, many people in the command hall looked bewildered, clearly not knowing what the "ancient great demon" that Ling Tianhou was talking about was.
"Ancient demons are beings that existed in ancient times and even earlier. It is said that after the division of the three realms, most ancient demons were tamed by the early immortals and gods, and it is now very difficult to find them outside the world."
As if aware of everyone's doubts, Qingcheng Hou slowly said, "Every ancient demon is a creature born with its own Daoist aura, whose bloodline can be traced back to the Chaos Era, and whose strength is terrifying."
"Based on the available information, there are many Golden Immortal-level beings among the ancient great demons... which are what we often call kings and nobles."
hiss!
After Qingcheng Hou explained the concept of "ancient great demon" in detail, a collective gasp of astonishment belatedly rang out in the combat hall.
A being of royal or noble caliber...
Shen Qian had already learned about this race from his own observations and from Cheng Qingqing's words, so he wasn't too surprised.
It's even possible that Cheng Qingqing was one of them, but the details given by Marquis Qingcheng are clearly more extensive.
It actually possesses its own Daoist aura?
Well, it's similar to the earliest gods. Those gods were born with control over one or more "paths," but because of this, they couldn't continue to comprehend the path. Only that snake brother was an anomaly among them.
In addition, Shen Qian also keenly noticed that Qingcheng Hou seemed to be referring to the king and marquis as "Golden Immortal" out of habit.
Could it be that this Marquis of Qingcheng is not a modern person?
While Shen Qian was pondering, Ling Tianhou continued:
"In short, after realizing that the A-level 'gate' in the mountain city was more dangerous than we had imagined, we have upgraded its level to 'A+', which means it is a 'gate' that needs to be treated with caution. Our strategy has now shifted to sealing it off. With the King personally overseeing the operation, no more monsters have appeared inside the 'gate', and all the monsters that had previously emerged have been wiped out, temporarily eliminating the threat."
When Ling Tianhou paused at this point, everyone subconsciously straightened their posture.
They didn't think Ling Tianhou's words were good news, because if the "door" was really not a problem, there wouldn't be an emergency meeting at this time.
This can only mean that something unexpected must have happened.
Sure enough, after a pause, Ling Tianhou continued, "But just last night, a garrison south of the mountain city was once again attacked by a large-scale ancient monster."
As Ling Tianhou changed his tone, the scene on the screen also changed. In a dilapidated camp engulfed in flames, dozens of enormous, strange creatures were rampaging through it.
"After the Mountain and Sea Warriors who came to provide support killed some of the demonic beasts, through identification and comparison, it was confirmed that these were the ancient demonic beasts behind the A-level 'gate'..."
When Ling Tianhou finished speaking, everyone looked puzzled.
“Indeed, this matter is strange. With the A-level ‘gate’ clearly blocked and all the monsters that emerged earlier being killed, the origin of these new monsters has become a mystery.”
Ling Tianhou said calmly, "In order to find out the reason, Qin Zhaohou personally took action and searched some of the monsters' memories before their deaths, and the result confirmed one thing."
"Behind that A-level 'gate,' in that world called 'Great Wilderness,' there exists an unknown altar. That altar has the function of spatial jump, and every once in a while, it can directly teleport a batch of demonic beasts to Earth."
"this……"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment upon hearing this.
"Doesn't this mean that blocking the 'door' is completely useless?"
Is the teleportation random?
"Could ancient demons also enter Earth through that altar?"
Finally, Zhongshanhai couldn't help but ask all sorts of questions.
Marquis Zhao of Qin?
Upon hearing that the current head of the Qin Guangwang family might be hostile towards him, Shen Qian instinctively felt a tightness in his chest. Because he had been suffering from paranoia lately, he began to habitually wonder if there was anything suspicious about it, but then he shook his head.
Legend has it that King Qin Guang used the name of Yama, the first of the Ten Courts of Hell, as his title because he walked a "path" that could touch the highest laws... life and death!
Honestly, I've been using a source-switching app to read and follow my favorite books lately. It offers various source switching options and different reading voices. The .huanyuanapp works on both Android and Apple devices.
There's no problem with Qin Zhaohou using his spiritual powers; he's definitely a professional in this area.
