The battle at Red Leaf Ridge had not only wiped out a large number of Heavenly Demons; more importantly, it had employed Nightmare Transformation Demon Essence.
Almost no one had heard this term before, but overnight, everyone across the Eastern Prosperity Continent learned of it.
It was not that they coveted an Out-of-Body Realm treasure—no one was foolish enough for that. The key was that Red Leaf Ridge truly had the resolve to protect others!
Their reputation had already been excellent, and this time it surged dramatically higher.
As for Red Leaf Ridge possessing a vast number of laser cannons while being stingy when selling them? Everyone had found an explanation.
Ridge Lord Qu knew divination. He had foreseen the Heavenly Demons launching a large-scale assault on Red Leaf Ridge. Was it wrong for them to protect themselves? Even for the safety of all living beings in Dongsheng, concentrating their firepower to annihilate the main Heavenly Demon force was the only choice!
At the same time, everyone gained a truly profound understanding of just how brutal the coming invasion would be!
Some people still held onto a bit of luck, believing that this battle had eliminated most of the Heavenly Demons' main force, so they sought out Divination Experts to ask.
With karma this immense, no true expert dared to divine it directly. But making an indirect calculation... that should be possible, right? There really were those unafraid of death who made the calculation—everyone bore responsibility when Dongsheng's safety was at stake.
The result was—the Heavenly Demon calamity was far from over and would continue for quite some time.
No one calculated anything more detailed, but this was already an answer. If the Heavenly Demon main force had been completely wiped out, where would this Heavenly Demon calamity come from?
