Beast Tide Erupts, Sweeping the Four Continents

At the same time.

Spirit Province, Magical Beast Forest.

The Magical Beast Forest connected the Four Great Continents.

They were Spirit Province, Wild Province, Heaven Province, and Azure Province.

The Magical Beast Forest was home to countless demon beasts. At regular intervals, they would obey the Demon King's command and launch Beast Tides against the major provinces.

Today, an enormous Beast Tide once again launched a brazen assault upon the Four Continents with unstoppable momentum.

In an instant, the Four Continents trembled.

All living things suffered devastation!

The three holy lands—Eastern Profound Holy Land, Mist Moon Holy Land, and Azure Sky Holy Land—simultaneously issued a proclamation, calling upon all major forces in every province to unite against the beasts.

Tyrant Heaven City.

Tyrant Heaven City was the city in Spirit Province closest to the Magical Beast Forest.

It had once been guarded by Heaven's Secret Pavilion, but after Heaven's Secret Pavilion was destroyed by the Azure Cloud Sect, no major force remained in the city. It was now a loose scattering of sand.

Countless demon beasts madly attacked the city.

There were innumerable First-Order Demon Beasts, too many Second-Order Demon Beasts to count, mountains and seas of Third-Order Demon Beasts, and Fourth-Order Demon Beasts spread across the hills and plains.

Of course, these were merely cannon fodder, charging at the very front.

The truly threatening ones were demon beasts above the Fifth Order.

As far as the eye could see, there were tens of thousands of Fifth- and Sixth-Order Demon Beasts.

Several thousand Seventh-Order Demon Beasts.

There were even several Rank 8 Demon Beasts.

Every one of these demon beasts was thick-skinned and tough-fleshed. Their eyes were blood-red as they charged forward madly.

"Roar! Roar!"

The roars of all manner of demon beasts thundered deafeningly!

The realms of demon beasts corresponded to the realms of cultivators.

First Order = Qi Refining, Second Order = Foundation Establishment, Third Order = Golden Core, Fourth Order = Nascent Soul, Fifth Order = Void Insight, Sixth Order = Spirit Transformation, Seventh Order = True Person, Eighth Order = Void-Shattering Realm, Ninth Order = Saint-Entering Realm... and so on.

Once demon beasts reached the Ninth Order, they became Saint Beasts, immensely powerful and ruling over one region of the Demon Race.

As for Saint King Beasts, Venerable Beasts, and Emperor Beasts beyond that, none had ever appeared in the entire Eastern Domain. They existed only in the powerful Central Domain.

If such demon beasts appeared in the Eastern Domain, it would truly be a disaster.

However, demon beasts possessed more vigorous blood and vitality than cultivators, so demon beasts of the same realm were somewhat stronger than cultivators.

It was said that the Demon King controlling the demon beasts in the Magical Beast Forest was a Ninth-Order Saint Beast.

That was why even the three holy lands treated this matter with such caution.

They had proclaimed that all forces across the Four Great Continents should unite and resist them together.

Tyrant Heaven City, atop the city walls.

Outside the city, corpses had already piled into mountains and blood flowed like rivers.

The city walls were likewise strewn with severed limbs and broken arms.

The major forces defending Tyrant Heaven City had repelled wave after wave of demon beast attacks.

"Patriarch, we can't hold out much longer. At most, within one day, these demon beasts will breach the city!"

A blood-covered man staggered before the patriarch and spoke.

"These damned demon beasts!"

"No, we cannot retreat!"

"If we retreat, our home will be destroyed by these demon beasts!"

This place was considered Spirit Province's first line of defense against the demon beasts.

Once this city fell, the gates of Spirit Province would be thrown wide open, and these frenzied demon beasts would sweep through every corner of Spirit Province.

Half a day ago, Ye Wu, the head of the Ye Family, the city's overlord-level force, had joined forces with the large and small factions within the city to resist the demon beasts.

But there were simply too many demon beasts. At most, they could hold on for another day before the city fell and its people perished.

"Even if we can't hold, we must hold!"

"I already sent people to notify the higher sects and Spirit Province's major forces. I believe they will soon dispatch powerful experts!"

"Hold the line now! Even if we die, if these demon beasts want to enter the city, they must step over our corpses!"

At that moment, a Sixth-Order Demon Beast charged onto the city wall and bit down on Ye Wu's arm!

"Aah!"

Ye Wu cried out in pain.

"Patriarch!"

"Get lost! I'm fine! Go defend the wall, the demon beasts are charging up!"

Ye Wu cleaved the demon beast biting his arm in two with a single sword strike and roared.

Alas, the Void-Shattering Realm ancestor was locked in battle with Rank 8 Demon Beasts and had no time to attend to this place.

That was the true Main Battlefield.

Within Tyrant Heaven City, everyone was panicking.

Cultivators with even a little cultivation and fighting spirit had already gone to defend the city walls. Those left behind were either weaklings trembling in fear within the city.

Or the majority, who had long since rolled up their bedding and fled.

Before disaster, everyone was equal.

Not everyone possessed the courage of Patriarch Ye and the others.

Husband and wife were birds in the same forest; when calamity struck, they flew off separately!

But did they not realize that when the nest was overturned, how could any egg remain intact?

Tianwu City, once a flourishing metropolis throughout Spirit Province, now had nine out of ten homes empty. Beacon fires blazed everywhere, burning across every stretch of land.

Azure Cloud Sect.

Azure Cloud Hall.

Feng Qingyang sat in the seat of honor, examining the system interface.

He considered the sect's future direction.

The current Azure Cloud Sect had already reached a bottleneck in its development.

To continue growing stronger, it could only expand without cease, recruit experts and geniuses, and spread the sect's prestige.

With a Great Emperor Realm ancestor and so many elders, why should they remain tucked away in one corner?

Host: Feng Qingyang
Realm: Mid True Person Realm
Disciples: Lin Bai, Shi Hao, Hua Qingyu
Physique: Myriad Heavens Divine Body

Sect experts: Ancestor Li Qingyun, peak Great Emperor Realm; Guardian Elder Wang Xuan, peak Void-Shattering Realm; Outer Sect Elders Ye Bai, Mu Tian, Mu Feng, peak Void-Shattering Realm; five guards.

Inner Sect Elder Mu Shuixian, Saint-Entering Realm; Luo Chen, Half-Saint; Law Enforcement Hall Elder Luo Wudao, Saint-Entering Realm; Technique Hall Elder Nie Hailong, peak Saint-Entering Realm.

Outer sect disciples: 600
Servant Disciples: 1,400

Sect: Azure Cloud Sect, Level 1 (9000/)

After so many days of lying around like a salted fish, I only advanced one minor realm.

"As the number one divine body of the heavens, how shameful!"

No, as the sect master, he could not keep slacking off like this!

"Damn it, System, shut up!"

"Life's three greatest pleasures are eating, drinking, and having fun!"

"Do you understand?"

"Then again, what would a lousy system like you understand?"

"In view of the host's slacking behavior, this system expresses its contempt and gives you the middle finger."

"New mission issued: recruit one genius disciple. Completion will grant enormous rewards."

Disciple interface: Li Yanzhi, daughter of the Holy Lord of Royal Pill Holy Land.
Realm: Nascent Soul Early Stage.
Fourth-Order Alchemist.

Royal Pill Holy Land: One of the Eastern Domain's five great holy lands. Deep foundations, an alchemy-focused force, revered by hundreds of millions.

"Fuck me! Well, damn!"

"The daughter of the Holy Lord of an alchemy holy land? You want me to go rob a holy land?"

"Hiss... no, wait, rob? That's not impossible either. Ahem..."

"The Azure Cloud Sect happens to be lacking alchemists. If I snatched up the entire holy land along with her..."

"I'll do it! I accept this mission. System, I'll give you some face."

There would be no punishment if he did not complete the mission.

If this had been during his slacking routine of the past two days, he definitely would not have accepted it.

But this time, not only could he obtain rewards, he could also resolve the sect's need for medicinal pills.

There was no loss in doing it, and it was killing two birds with one stone!

Just as Feng Qingyang was secretly mulling it over.

After reporting his arrival, Outer Sect Elder Ye Bai entered the main hall.

"Sect Master, the Beast Tide is here!"
