The moment the chains melted, the kings and nobles high above the underground city were all startled and turned their gazes toward the depths of the underground city.
"The seal has been broken..."
"Who is opening the 'door'?"
At first, these kings and nobles were horrified, but they quickly realized something and looked at Lord Yidao, whom they had noticed before.
"Could it be before the sinking?"
"It can only be him..."
"I-Knife Marquis said calmly."
"He really did get control of the 'key'!"
"Shen Qian is far too self-centered. Why didn't he discuss such a momentous matter as opening the 'Gate' to the Earth's core with us?"
Many kings and nobles voiced their dissatisfaction.
"Discuss with you?" Lord Yidao sneered, his gaze unfathomable. "Ask yourselves, do you truly trust each other?"
Silence fell upon hearing this.
"Humans..."
Upon seeing this, Bai Ligong sighed.
...
Meanwhile, on a cliff somewhere on the east coast of China.
The young man in plain clothes sitting by the sea suddenly stood up, but looked down at the soles of his feet.
"That 'door' opened."
King Zhouyi first frowned, then gave a self-deprecating laugh.
“That’s right. He went to the ‘Sea of Learning’ and maybe got the key… But why, after so many years, have I sent countless clones to search the ‘Sea of Learning’ but never found the key? It made me think that King Jiangling and the others had hidden the key in the River of Time.”
The King of Zhou spoke calmly, but the surrounding cliffs cracked open and the waves roared in the distance, revealing the turmoil in his heart.
"The White Emperor never believed me, the Demon King didn't believe me, and the King of Jiangling still doesn't believe me... Heh, those who manipulate fate are truly destined to be alone!"
King Zhou smiled again, his eyes gradually calming down.
"So be it, so be it..."
With a soft sigh, King Zhou Yi's figure suddenly disappeared on the cliff, leaving only a broken chessboard in his place.
Not long after King Zhouyi disappeared, a head cautiously emerged from the dark, deep sea.
He has human facial features, but his body is that of a giant shark.
After observing for a long time, the monster, which was neither human nor beast, seemed to have confirmed something. It suddenly swelled up its belly and let out a strange shriek into the distance.
Dozens of miles away, another sea monster with a human face and a beast's body emerged. After hearing the shriek, it transmitted the same shriek to the distance again. This sound continued to increase and accumulate. In just a short while, similar strange shrieks echoed throughout the entire East China Sea.
The shriek stretched into the depths of the endless sea, where there lay a gigantic island with an extremely strange shape.
Although it is called an island, it is more like a small continent pieced together from countless islands. After the shriek spread, a bright red flag suddenly unfurled on a tall tower in the center of the continent.
The flag depicts an eye without eyelashes, looking down at the surroundings with a superior posture. If you stare at it for a while, you can almost feel a lifelike, cold, and oppressive aura emanating from it.
The moment the flag appeared, the entire island seemed to come alive. Countless terrifying auras awakened, and countless scavengers and powerful witch warriors poured out of their hiding caves, all looking excitedly towards the west.
They all knew that the day had come to conquer human territory.
On a reef dozens of miles away, an old man in gray robes was excitedly explaining to a young man standing indifferently beside him: "That is the banner of the Witch Emperor. Once this banner is raised, it means that our Emperor has truly been resurrected... Hahaha, Heaven has brought prosperity to our Witch Clan! After so many years, the Witch Clan, which had been scattered like sand, has finally reunited!"
"The Dry Witch Clan, Blood Witch Clan, Beast Witch Clan, Spirit Witch Clan, Southern Witch Clan, and Earth Witch Clan—six major branches united! Hahaha, who can stop them? Who…"
Kacha!
The old man's words came to an abrupt halt as the young man reached out and grabbed his neck, then without hesitation exerted force, instantly crushing the old man's throat.
"It's so noisy."
The young man casually tossed the old man's corpse aside, as if he had merely crushed a fly.
The surrounding Wu Clan experts were all shocked, because the old man was no ordinary person, but a famous protector of the Wu Clan and a powerful expert of the Mountain and Sea Realm!
However, seeing that the top experts on the surrounding islands were all pretending not to see it, these people could only quickly lower their heads.
"You are a lowly human, you only managed to marry into the Witch Clan because of Princess Li of the Blood Witch Clan. What gives you the right to wantonly slaughter our Witch Clan's strongmen?"
However, some young and powerful members of the Wu clan still spoke out indignantly.
"Oh."
The only response he received was a soft chuckle. The next moment, with a "poof" sound, the young powerhouse's head exploded without warning.
Jiang Chengye immediately reached out and grabbed the young man and the corpse of the old man from the mountains and seas he had just killed, then stuffed them into the wide cloak on his back.
A cold wind swept by, causing everyone to shudder. Then, a chilling chewing sound came from behind Jiang Chengye. In the blink of an eye, the two corpses disappeared completely into the shadow of Jiang Chengye's cloak.
"I'm never full, I can never get enough to eat..."
Jiang Chengye's gaze was sinister as he constantly surveyed the trembling Wu Clan warriors around him, as if he were considering how many more people he needed to kill before he could truly satisfy the woman on his back.
"Jiang Chengye, that's enough... This is enough!"
Finally, a loud sound rang out over the island.
Upon hearing this voice, the powerful members of the surrounding witch clan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the white-robed elder who had suddenly appeared in the sky. They all bowed down and exclaimed, "Blood Witch King!"
