"Right now, in the Northern Region, the Chu Kingdom is on full alert, and the Chu Emperor has begun to gather a large army to prepare for a counterattack," Fan Ziming said.
The Chu Emperor Sect is the only first-class sect in the Northern Region. They contributed the most when suppressing the demonic beasts, and they were also responsible for guarding the demonic beasts in the Northern Cold Land.
Now that the demonic beasts have broken through the seal of the Northern Cold Lands, the first thing they need to deal with is naturally the Chu Kingdom.
Unlike the sects, the State of Chu had a vast territory and its people were scattered all over the country, making it quite difficult to protect them all in a short period of time.
Su Yuewan spoke up, saying, "The reappearance of the demonic beasts is a matter for the entire continent. Even though we are in the Southern Region, we cannot stand idly by. Everyone should be prepared to deal with any unforeseen events. We may also need to send people to the Northern Region to assist the Chu Kingdom in resisting the demonic beasts, so we cannot let our guard down!"
"yes!"
...
"We'll be sending people to the Northern Region again, and it'll probably be me again, no doubt." On the way back, Bai Hao and Fan Ziming walked together, and Bai Hao couldn't help but complain.
Without a doubt, he will definitely be needed to go to the Northern Region to help.
“It could also be the three of us: you, me, and Zheng Long! The three of us brothers can take down any monster we see!” Fan Ziming patted his chest, speaking with great bravado, indicating that he would stand with Bai Hao through thick and thin.
"You can bring your own small steamer, but you can skip this one."
"Huh? What do you mean, Brother Bai?"
"What I mean is, taking you along will only excessively deplete the team's food reserves. I don't want to have to carry so much food when I go out on business."
"Hey!" Fan Ziming was so angry that he raised his hand to chase after Bai Hao and hit him.
Suddenly,
"boom!"
Suddenly, a massive bolt of lightning struck down, hitting the main hall of the Falling Sea Sect with tremendous force. In an instant, thunder roared and lightning flashed, darkening the sky and the entire main hall, which was instantly reduced to dust by the lightning.
Many disciples were still near the sect's main hall when they were directly blasted away by the residual force of the dissipating lightning, suffering serious injuries.
The sect was greatly alarmed!
"What's going on?!"
Bai Hao was also startled by this sudden turn of events and quickly turned around to look.
As the lightning struck, it cleaved the gloomy sky, revealing a beam of light that shone on the ruined sect hall. In the light, the tranquil space slowly distorted, opening a massive spatial gate.
With a series of roars and howls, enormous shadows rushed out of the portal.
"That's... a demonic beast?!"
Emerging from the spatial gate were enormous demonic beasts. Without hesitation, they charged off in all directions, destroying house after house with their sturdy bodies.
"It's a demonic beast?!"
Bai Hao and Fan Ziming's expressions changed, and they immediately turned back without hesitation.
The appearance of the demonic beasts was too sudden. By the time they reacted and organized themselves, more than a dozen huge demonic beasts had already run out of the spatial gate, turning the Luohai Sect upside down.
"Buzz!"
A slight ripple suddenly appeared in the surrounding space, followed by a light blue barrier that quickly rose up, trapping the spatial gate and all the monsters that had emerged inside.
"roar!"
Those demonic beasts clearly didn't believe in evil spirits and resolutely used their powerful bodies to crash into the rising barrier. However, not only did they fail to break the barrier, but the force of the barrier's recoil even caused their blood and qi to surge.
"I haven't even gone looking for trouble with you yet, but you've come knocking on my door first."
A cold voice rang out above the Falling Sea Sect. Su Yuewan slowly descended from Thousand Spirit Peak, her expression calm yet carrying a chilling coldness that made one's heart tremble.
She walked straight into the barrier, her indifferent gaze sweeping over the demonic beasts below before turning to the still-open spatial portal.
She wasn't speaking to those beasts, but to those inside the portal who hadn't yet emerged.
"Hehe, as expected of the only Supreme Realm expert in this world, Sect Master Su's aura is truly extraordinary." A calm and composed voice came from the spatial gate. A white-robed man walked out slowly, a faint smile on his face. He was gentle and refined, giving people a very approachable feeling.
But someone who could walk out of the portal with so many demonic beasts was clearly not a good person.
"It seems that Sect Master Su has forgotten what Venerable White Dragon instructed you to do." The man slowly levitated, flying to a height where he could look Su Yuewan in the eye, his hands behind his back, calm and composed.
"I haven't forgotten what Venerable White Dragon said, I just simply don't want to do it." Su Yuewan's expression was equally calm, and the two spoke as if they were old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time.
Outside the barrier, listening to their conversation, Bai Hao frowned slightly.
"White Dragon Venerable... does that mean the divine beast inside the ruins is about to make a move?"
Back in the ruins, the White Dragon Venerable said that he wanted all the major sects to spread the will of the gods and gather believers for their divine beasts.
But now, several months have passed, and Bai Hao has not heard any news about that sect promoting the consciousness of gods or encouraging people to believe in divine beasts.
Almost all sects reached a consensus—to oppose Venerable White Dragon!
If Venerable White Dragon had initially targeted smaller sects, his power might have garnered him some followers, since everyone respects the strong.
But now they're targeting top-tier sects!
As a first-class sect, having enjoyed the respect it has received as a top-tier power for thousands of years, it is completely impossible for any other sect to submit to a suddenly appearing divine beast.
Even divine beasts cannot subdue them!
Therefore, after receiving no response for several months, Venerable White Dragon realized that the various sects had not taken his words to heart after returning. Enraged, he decided to teach these ignorant people a lesson.
And these monsters will be the proof!
"Your integrity is commendable, but does Sect Leader Su know what price you will have to pay for it?" A cold glint appeared in the white-robed man's eyes, and the threat in his words was self-evident.
"And do you know what price one has to pay for offending my Falling Sea Sect?" Su Yuewan retorted coldly, her sharp edge fully revealed!
"Hahaha, good! As expected of Sect Master Su, then let me see just how powerful the strongest human being is!" Amidst laughter, the white-robed man suddenly made his move. With a stomp of his foot, countless bolts of lightning flashed as his figure flickered, accompanied by a faint rumble of thunder. Terrifying energy poured out, rushing towards Su Yuewan!
"snort!"
With a cold snort, Su Yuewan also stepped forward, surrounded by a faint blue gale.
"boom!"
The moment the two collided, the enormous energy generated shattered the barrier. The two transformed into two shadows, colliding rapidly in the air. Each collision produced terrifying energy, shaking the heavens and the earth.
