The palace emerged from the water in an instant
It shot into the sky, like a shooting star, and disappeared into the southern horizon.
And after the palace flew away.
Immediately afterwards, terrifying figures flew out from the depths of Chuanluo Abyss.
It created a large splash on the water's surface.
If someone were to look down from a high altitude at this moment.
You will then discover that beneath the surface of Chuanluoyuan, there are countless tiny black dots, like sesame seeds.
If someone with a phobia of secret manuals sees this...
I'm afraid I'll get goosebumps all over.
These black dots are moving south in a regular pattern, against the flow of the river, following the direction of the Dragon King's palace, and beginning their journey towards the Southern Region.
...
Meanwhile, in the Northern Region.
After the death of the leader of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, the Dragon King continued to launch attacks.
The Heavenly Alliance has collapsed several times.
Most of them fled to the Eastern Regions.
The remaining small group, out of fear of the Dragon King, did not flee to the Eastern Region with the majority.
Instead, they secretly retreated to the northern region.
Although the Northern Regions are not as prosperous as the Eastern and Western Regions.
However, it is not as barren and desolate as the Southern Region.
Because it borders Cangzhou, one of the Nine Provinces, it is relatively good.
Moreover, it's because they are far from the Dragon King.
The pressure here is relatively low.
Of course, this "small" refers to the Eastern Region, which directly confronts the Dragon King.
Although we don't have to face the Dragon King.
However, the sea tribe had three demon kings in charge of conquering the northern region.
The combined pressure from these three, while not as overwhelming as that from the Dragon King, was immense.
However, it was not something that the local forces of the Northern Region and the remaining strength of the Heavenly Dao Alliance could resist.
Therefore, the situation is the same as in the Eastern Region.
Now, all the resistance forces in the Northern Region have been forced to the border.
Further back lies the territory of Cangzhou.
If they really retreated to Cangzhou.
That would mean they had been completely driven from their homes.
Even if one day we manage to retake Yuzhou.
Then Yuzhou will no longer belong to them.
This is why, even when the situation has reached an extremely critical point.
The reason why the cultivators of Yuzhou continued to resist instead of fleeing directly to other prefectures and counties.
The remaining forces of the Heavenly Dao Alliance and local cultivators from the Northern Region.
They are currently holding out within a few cities.
With the help of several Nascent Soul cultivators who came from Cangzhou.
Together they repelled an attack by the demon king.
However, all crows are black.
Just like the four-party alliance that was first formed in Qingzhou.
The cultivators from Cangzhou who came to provide support were outwardly friendly but inwardly hostile.
Each of them had their own ulterior motives.
Even worse, some people simply stood by and watched, indifferent to their fate...
The internal situation is not good.
The demon king from the outer sea tribes once again amassed a large army.
They planned to take over the cities held by the cultivators of the Northern Region in one fell swoop.
Just when the situation was at its most critical moment.
The rescue from the Ming Dynasty imperial court has finally arrived...
...
In the northern region of Yuzhou, there is Dongyuan City.
Dongyuan City is located on a plain and is at the forefront of the struggle between the cultivators of the Northern Region and the sea race.
On the ground, various sea creatures and demon soldiers, like a tidal wave, launched a fearless assault on Dongyuan City.
Beneath their feet lay layers upon layers of corpses.
These were all left behind by the demon soldiers who attacked the city before.
Some of them aren't even completely dead yet.
However, when the sea creatures wage war, there is never such a thing as wounded soldiers.
You're either the victor or a corpse.
Therefore, a large number of sea monster soldiers were unable to move due to injuries.
They were trampled to death by the demon soldiers who surged up from behind.
Then the demon soldiers who rushed up from behind were wiped out in droves by the cultivators defending Dongyuan City using magic.
Those sea creatures who miraculously survived the magic were once again trampled underfoot by the demon soldiers surging from behind...
This process was repeated countless times, and the layers upon layers of sea creature corpses had even raised the ground several meters.
The closer you get to Dongyuan City, the thicker the layer of corpses becomes.
This was after the cultivators had tried every possible method to clean it up.
If we don't do that...
The corpses of the dead sea creatures alone would be enough to flood the entire city of Dongyuan.
Compared to the chaos on the ground.
The situation above the sky wasn't much better.
Don't be fooled by the fact that sea creatures live in the ocean every day.
However, there are also quite a few demon soldiers and generals who can fly, or even ride the clouds.
Most of these flying sea creatures are dragons.
In terms of both strength and status, they are many times stronger than the trashy cannon fodder on the ground who only know how to die.
Therefore, what caused the huge casualties among the cultivators of Dongyuan City was not the endless stream of sea monsters on the ground.
Instead, it was a powerful dragon-like sea monster in the sky.
Every second, cultivators fall.
In such a brutal war.
Almost all the Golden Core cultivators in Dongyuan City are dead.
Now it's all being supported by ten Nascent Soul cultivators.
However, these were not the most despairing things for the cultivators of Dongyuan City.
What truly brings them endless pressure is...
On the distant horizon, a colossal figure...
This figure, like a mountain, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, stands abruptly on the plain.
If anyone can get close
You'll find out.
This "mountain" is not actually a mountain.
Instead, it was a catfish that was as big as a mountain and had purple eyes!
He was none other than the Purple-Eyed Demon King, one of the seven great demon kings of the sea race.
