Su Zhe scratched his head and said, "Huh? The Secret Realm is sealed off?"

How did you know?

Everyone looked over.

A white light appeared on the palm of the Daoist Family Saint Son and he slapped the air, creating ripples that seemed to appear in the air.

"Gentlemen, is there any need for further explanation?"

"This is actually the final Secret Realm indicated on the map."

"But even if I unleash my power now, no one will respond."

"As for the distress token, it has already been tested."

Su Zhe paused for a moment, then quickly asked, "Huh? How do we get out?"

"Are we just going to wait to die inside?"

The Daoist Family Saint Son smiled and said, "Not going out and waiting is the best way to get help."

"If we forcibly break through this Secret Realm, it might cause it to collapse. In that case, neither the outside nor the inside will be able to get out or save it."

Listening to their conversation.

Li Chen looked at the Su Family Saint Son, his expression not changing much.

However, it's no longer Academy Tournament.

Instead, we need to get out as soon as possible.

After all, just as others have said, this Secret Realm could collapse at any time if left unmanaged.

Li Chen looked at the Daoist Family Saint Son's smile and fell into deep thought.

Waiting... The Daoist Family Saint Son before us is definitely not as simple as he seems.

After all, they are all holy sons of their generation. How could they be afraid of the collapse of the Secret Realm? Even if the Secret Realm collapses, he really doesn't believe that their families outside won't care about them, these holy sons.

Then there's only one possibility: perhaps all the major families already know about these things.

I just don't want them to go out.

They had no idea what was actually happening outside at that moment.

Jianping stood beside Li Chen, a hint of apology flashing in his eyes.

Outside world.

Canghai City.

The once bustling streets, filled with cheers and laughter, have long since disappeared.

The sky was covered with dark clouds for thousands of miles.

The oppressive atmosphere continued to spread.

The Bird's Nest, where the Academy Tournament were held, was almost deserted.

The entire city fell into a profound silence.

Many vehicles sped along the road towards the outskirts of the city, and some of the Sequence User even possessed the ability to fly, towing a giant container through the air.

There were also many people whispering among themselves inside the container.

Canghai Pass.

Standing atop the barrier, one after another Sequence User stood, their auras undoubtedly at the Withered Sea Realm, their gazes fixed on the Black Mist -shrouded sea surface.

Countless Eerie Monsters are swimming towards this pass.

Many... densely packed like sesame seeds.

"Has the Pass Master not arrived yet?"

"Today's Eerie Tide is even more terrifying than the last one!"

"Last time, at least we could see clearly into the Black Mist, but now our vision is completely blocked."

Just then, a sweet, coquettish voice rang out.

"Stop talking, the Eerie Monsters has already started climbing up!!"

"Prepare for battle!"

"..."

Below the pass, in a room.

Still speaking.

A man in a black windbreaker looked angry and said, "You mean today, Four Great Passes were attacked by the Eerie Tides simultaneously?"

There is no more support.

"Then how can we defend Canghai Pass?"

"This is already the hardest pass to defend; do you expect me to use the lives of those Sequence User to hold it?!"

An old man sat beside him.

The old man took a leisurely sip of tea and said, "No, it's not about asking them to risk their lives to defend their homeland, but rather that they should give their lives to protect it."

"If Nuoguan is breached, you should understand how severe the consequences will be."

The man opened his mouth, but couldn't refute it.

The number of people who died at Guanpo was far greater than this, but how can we defend it now?

The Four Great Passes were simultaneously struck by Eerie Tide.

It should have been a case of one person receiving help, but three people offering assistance.

But everyone's too busy right now.

Where do Human Race find the energy to waste on those Eerie Monsters?

The man's gaze was deep as he gave the old man a long look and muttered a curse under his breath.

"Damn inlanders... aren't my men human too?"

Knowing full well that the border is suffering such a huge blow, the inland areas have offered no support.

Moreover, the Academy Tournament is being held here, yet none of the powerful experts at the Calamity Realm have made a move.

They all ran away as soon as they saw the Eerie Tide.

I was terrified that I would die.

The man stepped out of the room and quickly headed towards the top of the checkpoint.

It is located near the outskirts of Canghai City.

The area was completely blocked off.

Countless people are clamoring.

Too many people are fleeing; they came all the way from the inland to watch the game, and suddenly Eerie Tide is sweeping in.

Ordinary people began to scatter and flee, completely disregarding others.

At this moment, the idea that human nature is inherently good is like a rotten apple.

The towering figure of the Kuang Dui, accompanied by numerous agents from the Special Affairs Bureau, was maintaining order.

He stood on a vehicle, his eyes gleaming, and murmured...

"It's coming."

Suddenly, a gasp of surprise erupted from the crowd.

Someone's dead!!

"Ahhh!!"

The crowd immediately erupted into chaos, with many people watching the spectacle.

The Kuang Dui ignored him and calmly ordered, "All team members, quickly lead the crowd and evacuate Canghai City."

Because he understood that Ruo was not leaving with anyone.

More people will die later.

Boom! Boom!

Thunder still echoed through the dark clouds.

Just then, a raindrop fell on the Kuang Dui's serious face.

Then came a torrential downpour.

The situation seems to be getting increasingly out of control.

"The rain... is getting heavier."

The Four Passes are now under attack.

The news had spread throughout almost the entire Xia Kingdom.

Many people in inland areas are hoping that they can get through this soon.

Many people have also begun to pack their bags, preparing to head towards the nearest checkpoint.

Despite the heavy rain, many people were strolling along the streets with umbrellas, and occasionally someone would discuss the current situation of the Four Great Passes.

One of the men, soaked to the bone and clutching a phone with a cracked screen, smiled and said to the photo on the screen, "Mom, I'm going to save the world!"

"I don't want to be a couch potato anymore!"

"Your son is going to be a hero, a great hero."

"At least this time, I don't want to back down."

Passersby thought this person was mentally ill.

He was talking to himself in the pouring rain without an umbrella, staring at his phone.

Suddenly, a faint golden light emanated from the man's body, shooting towards the sky like a rainbow.

All that remained was the floorboards, shattered to pieces by the powerful impact.

Many people were stunned.

Not mentally ill? Or is he an extremely powerful Sequence User?

"Wow, talent can emerge from all over the country!"

This isn't just in this one place, but in many other cities.

Powerful Sequence User have begun to shine one after another.

They rushed to the border where war had already broken out.

Canghai City.

Many people were suspended on the rooftops of buildings throughout the city, staring intently at the Eerie Monsters that kept falling from the checkpoint.

They were all the remaining Sequence User.

Why did people run away? Because the Eerie Tide was coming, and there were so many of them, almost endless.

It's not that every Eerie Monsters can be easily dealt with.

Some will charge directly into Canghai City.

Slaughter everything.

Then we need them.

Standing on a rooftop, Wei Laoda watched the scene unfold before him and murmured...

"This is the first time I've experienced Eerie Tide at any other checkpoint..."

"The battle was indeed more brutal than at the Ruined Pass."

At that moment, he snapped his fingers, and one after another, the Slaughterer emerged from a passage behind him.
